Chapter 501 Have you ever considered the consequences of doing so?
Feng An sighed, looked at Feng Zhichen and said, "Because you are worried."
As the saying goes, knowing a son is like a father, how can he not understand Feng Zhichen's temperament.
Self-willed, but suspicious, such an important matter, the less people who know about it, the less people make an appointment, and the more people know about it.
A trace of panic flashed in Feng Zhichen's eyes, and he said, "Father, I really didn't do it."
"It's very simple to find out about this matter. If you don't tell the truth, don't blame the old man for not thinking about the relationship between father and son." Feng An said here, with murderous eyes in his eyes.
Feng Zhichen trembled all over, his face turned pale.
He knew Feng An's character, if he didn't tell the truth again and was found out, Feng An would definitely kill him.
"Father, this was done by my son." Feng Zhichen hesitated for a moment, then admitted.
No matter what, he was Feng An's son. He believed that as long as he admitted, even if Feng An got angry, he would not kill him. After all, Lin Xuan was not dead.
"reason."
Although Feng An was basically sure, he still had some fluke in his heart, and now that Feng Zhichen admitted, this fluke is gone.
He really didn't understand why Feng Zhichen wanted to kill Lin Xuan since Lin Xuan and Feng Zhichen had no enmity.
"Father, the Cui family asked me to do it. They promised me that as long as I kill Lin Xuan, I can marry the daughter of the Cui family. The Cui family is the first family. If we can marry the Cui family, it will be a good thing for our Feng family, so my son agreed. Yes." Feng Zhichen said.
He didn't say that the Cui family agreed to support him to inherit the title, and he seemed to agree to it only for the Feng family's consideration.
Xue Yuanchao, the prime minister of Emperor Gaozong, once said: "I have three hatreds in my life: one is not to be ranked as a Jinshi, the other is not to marry women with five surnames, and the third is not to compile national history."
The dignified prime minister is very worried about not marrying a woman with five surnames.
It can be seen that people at that time were enthusiastic about marrying women with five surnames.
The Feng family can only be regarded as a powerful party, not even an aristocratic family.
He believed that Feng An would also be tempted to marry the Cui family.
"Idiot! Do you think the Cui family would be so kind? With the power of the Cui family, why do you need to assassinate Lin Xuan? Have you ever thought about it?" Feng An scolded.
Feng Zhichen said in a low voice: "Father, no matter how powerful the Cui family is, this is Lingnan, so we naturally need our help."
"Extremely stupid, Chang'an is thousands of miles away from Lingnan, where can't he be killed? Have you ever thought about the consequences of killing Lin Xuan?" Feng An said coldly.
"Father, as long as we keep it secret, the imperial court won't hold our Feng family accountable for a dead person." Feng Zhichen said indifferently.
"Don't you know that Lin Xuan and Princess Changle's wedding is coming soon? To die at this time is tantamount to slapping His Majesty in the face. Have you thought about this?" Feng An looked very disappointed at Feng Zhichen.
He has been hesitating in his heart, who will inherit the title, Feng Zhichen or Feng Zhidai, but he still has hope for Feng Zhichen in his heart, but Feng Zhichen is so short-sighted, which makes him very disappointed.
If Lin Xuan had died normally, Li Shimin might not have pursued it because of a dead person.
But Lin Xuan is about to become a son-in-law, Lin Xuan is going to die, it is tantamount to slapping Li Shimin in the face.
What's more, the Feng family took refuge in Datang as princes and had a high prestige in Lingnan. Could the court not be afraid at all?
"Father, I know I was wrong." Feng Zhichen said.
"It's late." Feng An closed his eyes in pain.
Lin Xuan knew that someone from the Feng family did this, so he could just find someone to replace him, can Lin Xuan believe it?
Lin Xuan's life is hanging by a thread, it is impossible not to give him an explanation.
Seeing Feng An's expression, Feng Zhichen felt a bad premonition for some reason, and quickly said: "Father, the person sent by the Cui family is still in my courtyard, why don't you meet him."
Feng An opened his eyes suddenly, and shouted: "Come here, go and bring him here."
"Father, I'd better go over and invite you." Feng Zhichen said.
"Shut up!" Feng An glared at Feng Zhichen, closed his eyes and began to think.
He originally thought that the Cui family just wanted to use Feng Zhichen to kill Lin Xuan, and let the Feng family bear the consequences.
Now it seems that things are not so simple.
Li Shimin and the aristocratic family are completely in the same situation. The people of the aristocratic family have stayed in the Feng family for so long. If Li Shimin finds out, what will Li Shimin think?
Not long after, Feng An's personal soldiers brought the middle-aged man sent by the Cui family to the hall.
"Meet Geng Guogong."
The middle-aged man did not panic at all, and saluted Feng An.
"Tell me, what is your status in the Cui family?" Feng Ang asked lightly.
"I'm Gu Liqing, a guest of the Cui family." Gu Liqing smiled.
"Hmph!" Feng An snorted coldly, and said, "Your Cui family is really scheming. You used my idiot son to kill Lin Xuan. No matter what the result is, it has nothing to do with the Cui family."
Gu Liqing said: "Gong Guogong misunderstood, the Cui family didn't have this intention, even if the eldest son failed to kill Lin Xuan, the Cui family also intended to marry the Feng family."
"Sir, are you serious?" Feng Zhichen said in surprise.
Feng Ang gave Feng Zhichen a hard look, and said, "Tell me about the purpose of the Cui family."
"I heard that many people in Lingnan call Duke Geng the King of Lingnan. Doesn't Geng Guogong want to be a real King of Lingnan?" Gu Liqing laughed.
Feng An looked at Gu Liqing in astonishment, and exclaimed, "Your Cui family wants to rebel?"
Since Liu Bang established the White Horse Alliance in the Han Dynasty and stipulated that non-Liu family members could not be crowned kings, although the subsequent dynasties did not establish covenants like the Han Dynasty, it was already acquiesced that the opposite sex would not be crowned king.
Gu Liqing said that for him to be the real King of Lingnan, only rebellion is possible.
"Mr. Geng was joking. Seriously, the Cui family and the Duke were all Sui officials before, and the Li family just robbed the Yang family's world. How can there be rebellion?" Gu Liqing said flatly.
Feng An said expressionlessly: "Aren't you afraid that the old man will tell His Majesty about this?"
Gu Liqing smiled and said: "What about the evidence? I'm just a guest of the Cui family, and I can't represent the Cui family. The court has been suppressing the family, even if Geng Guogong leaked it, what effect will it have on the Cui family? But afterward, the Feng family will..."
What to do, although Gu Liqing didn't say anything, the threat in his tone was self-evident.
Feng An didn't say anything, Gu Liqing was right, even if he told Li Shimin about Gu Liqing, it wouldn't make much sense.
"Gong Guogong doesn't want the Feng family to become a prince?" Gu Liqing continued to bewitch.
Feng An sneered and said, "Your rhetoric may be useful to others, but it is of no use to the old man. If the old man wants to be king, he has already been king."
At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the world was in chaos, and many princes from all walks of life became kings.
Feng An was also a vassal at the beginning, and he could become king at that time, so there is no need to wait until now.
Gu Liqing was slightly taken aback, and then remembered that Feng An was also a prince in the late Sui Dynasty.
"Since Geng Guogong is unwilling to cooperate, then pretend I didn't say anything and leave!" After Gu Liqing finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave.
"Wait!" Feng Anhan said in a low voice, "Did the old man let you go?"
Gu Liqing turned his head and said with a smile, "What else is Geng Guogong doing?"
He represented the Cui family, and he didn't believe that Feng An dared to touch him.
"You tricked the old man's son into assassinating Lin Xuan. Now that Lin Xuan is seriously injured, the old man is worried about how to explain to him." Feng An sneered.
Gu Liqing said very calmly: "Gong Guogong wants to hand me over to Lin Xuan? Has Geng Guogong ever considered the consequences of doing so?"
