However, fate always loved to make fun of people. There was someone else who was the true master of the Dragon Throne.

As for himself, after being suppressed so many times, he had fallen into a situation where he needed to live in seclusion.

Qian Yexun's expression was solemn as he replied honestly, "Royal Uncle, do you remember the previous Empress Dowager Zhen in the palace?"

"Haha …" Lowering his head to hold this testamentary edict, Qian Feng's heart was so heavy that he couldn't speak. He felt that his fate was too preposterous as if he was playing a child's game. He was played around by this damnable fate.

"Royal Uncle …" Qian Yexun was a little worried. The abnormal behavior of his royal uncle caused him to be a little worried for a moment.

"I really didn't expect that when the late emperor was still alive, he would actually make me the successor to the throne. Since he wanted to make me the monarch, why did I never feel a little favor from him, as well as a whole new respect for me?"

"Perhaps royal father had his own considerations at that time. Look, if not for Empress Dowager Zhen desperately hiding the testamentary edict, it might have already been found out and destroyed. If it had really been destroyed, who would have known that such a testamentary edict would exist in the world?"

Now Qian Yexun finally understood why the Empress Dowager insisted on not letting that one person in the palace go. Even though she had already gone out of her house to become a monk and posed no threat to the imperial power of the imperial city, she still wouldn't be able to do anything.

Perhaps because of this testamentary edict, this was the greatest provocation towards the imperial power, as well as the greatest threat.

Once this testamentary edict was revealed, then the monarch currently sitting on the dragon throne would probably be forced to roll off the dragon throne and hand over the imperial power in his hands.

However, if this imperial uncle in front of him really had the heart to ascend to the throne, wanting to take back everything that belonged to him wouldn't be that easy either.

"Xun Er, what do you want royal uncle to do?" Qian Feng Ting suddenly looked seriously at his nephew.

The Royal Nephew in front of him was somewhat similar to his appearance. Amongst all his Royal Nephews, the one he liked the most was only this one.

Qian Yexun uncomfortably touched his nose, "This is a very important matter, Royal Uncle, your nephew does not dare to speak carelessly about this."

He didn't want his opinions to affect his Imperial Uncle's decision.

"It wasn't easy for you all to come to my place and stay here. Although my conditions are limited, I think that you all will like my place." Qian Qingting changed the topic, as if he didn't want to talk about the posthumous edict anymore. It happened so suddenly, and he needed more time to think carefully before making the right decision.

"Alright, I'm really tired after rushing all the way here." After finishing his discussion, Qian Yexun stretched his stiff arms out from the carriage and took the lead to walk out of the study room.

Ban Xia stood at the door of the house, looking out at the bamboo forest, and the mountains in the distance.

"Since Royal Uncle invited us to stay here, we're also tired. Let's stay here for the night."

Ban Xia raised her head to look at Qian Yexun. Her expression, was not the slightest bit abnormal, and she could not help but ask, "What does royal uncle think?

With such a pleasant surprise or shock in front of him, Ban Xia did not believe that he could remain calm as usual.

When she first saw this testamentary edict, she was just an outsider, so she was rather frightened.

"Give royal uncle some time, I believe he will make his choice." Qian Yexun focused on enjoying the scenery in front of him.

In the evening, smoke rose from the chimneys. Although the Thousand Wind House did not look like they had a high status, living alone in the forest required them to learn some basic survival skills.

For example, hunting, cooking, etc.

"You two have nothing to do, so help me roast the fish. The fish was fished out of the pond yesterday and kept in a bucket. It's quite fresh. You guys came at the right time, so your luck is pretty good."

At this moment, Qian Feng was like a hunter, focused on dealing with the prey in front of him and all kinds of ingredients.

Ban Xia wanted to help, so she moved closer.

"Royal Uncle, why didn't you bring one or two servants over? In this way, they can also take care of your daily life. "

Isn't he tired of doing everything by himself?

"Forget it, I can't bear to let any of them follow me around. I don't want to implicate anyone. Besides, I'm used to coming and going alone, so there's nothing bad about it. I'm just enjoying my peace and quiet."

Qian Feng Ting seemed to be satisfied with the life he was living in seclusion, and he was doing all of this in a carefree manner.

On the other side, Qian Yexun skillfully put on the fish, sprinkled some salt on it and started to roast it.

His survival skills in the wild was something that made Ban Xia have a whole new level of respect for him.

The two men in front of him shared the same noble bloodline with the Imperial Family. They should both be below ten thousand and should enjoy endless honor, yet now they were like ordinary men, self-sufficient in washing their hands and cooking.

They were destined to enjoy power and status that others did not possess from the moment they were born. They possessed supreme honor and prestige. However, compared to them, the price that they had to pay was also extraordinary.

The dinner was extremely sumptuous, Ban Xia had not eaten wild food for a long time, all of these were wild food brought back by Qian Feng from the mountains.

"Aiya, I'm so full now. If I eat like this every day, I'll probably be as fat as a ball in less than a month."

She was so full that she needed to go out for a walk to eat.

"I'll go with you." Seeing her walk out of the hut, Qian Yexun threw down his royal uncle and chased after her.

"You heartless little thing. Before, when I was married, didn't you run here and there with me? Your Imperial Uncle was always pestering me, but now that you have a wife, you should forget about me, your Imperial Uncle!" Qian Feng frowned slightly as she vented the dissatisfaction in her heart, as well as the depression of being ignored.

Looking at the scene of the two of them walking and playing in the night, Qian Qingting suddenly felt an unprecedented loneliness.

His nephew already had a niece who had been through thick and thin with him. What about him, he was still alone.

The night in the mountain seemed much colder than outside.

After walking not too far away, Ban Xia already felt a chill down her spine, and she couldn't help but hug her arms to keep them warm.

Unexpectedly, the man next to her pulled her over, causing her to be caught off guard and fall into his embrace.

It had to be said that leaning into his embrace had indeed made him feel much warmer.

"Don't make a fuss, be careful that royal uncle is still watching us from behind. Is it really appropriate for us to act like this and show off our love in front of him?" Aren't you afraid of provoking that old man? " Ban Xia raised her pink hammer, struggling and protesting.

Deep down, she was still very traditional. She was still a little shy and minded about this casual act of cuddling outside.

"What are you afraid of? Didn't my royal uncle come here when he was young? Do you think that when he was young, he didn't provoke other young ladies? Then you're wrong. "If he's envious, then let him be envious. After all, he always pretends to be aloof and cold all the time. Before he went into seclusion, he didn't even know how to find a woman to keep him company. He deserves to be left alone in the cold. He can only look at our love!"

Qian Yexun had always been a person who angered others to death, especially when he was not serious at all.

"Cough, no matter what, he's your royal uncle. Don't say such things to him. If he heard it, he would definitely be secretly hurt." Ban Xia was a kind and kind person, he couldn't help but scold her husband.

"Yes, your daughter-in-law's teachings are correct. In the future, your husband will restrain himself in front of your royal uncle." Qian Yexun only talked too much, he really didn't have any intentions of being disrespectful to his own royal uncle.

Qian Yexun lamented, "My wife, if we can also find such a beautiful place to live in seclusion like royal uncle, would you be willing to join me?"

His years of war, and the deceit of the court, fed him up more and more.

The peace in the mountain and the peace in Ning He's heart allowed him to calm down.

In the past, he couldn't understand why his royal uncle didn't want the wonderful outside world and just ran into this mountain to hide. But now, it seemed that he was actually envious of his royal uncle.
