Chapter 378 - 308. Moving a Mountain_2
Mr. Feng sneered, "Why do you keep thinking about others instead of your own matters? Do you already have all the answers in your heart?"
Chen Ji remained silent.
Mr. Feng bent down, picked up a piece of straw from the ground, and tore it apart strand by strand, "The year I passed the scholar examination, I wrote an article titled ’Twelve Strategies for Pacifying the North’ during the palace examination. Six strategies to stabilize internal affairs and six strategies to repel external threats, it was the culmination of over a decade of effort. Yet in the palace examination, I couldn’t compete with the flattering piece written by the legitimate eldest son of your Chen family’s second house. At that moment, I realized that studying Confucian classics was pointless."
Mr. Feng smiled slightly, "As for what I want to do, I actually told you a long time ago..."
Chen Ji recalled Mr. Feng’s words.
In Guyuan, Mr. Feng once pointed to a streak of dawn in the distance and said, five years later, when the Jing Dynasty marches south, I will don armor and head north to water my horse at the North Sea.
At this moment, Mr. Feng was also puzzled, "No, you didn’t come here just to ask me something... You just wanted an excuse to get into this Imperial Prison? What is it about this place that attracts you?"
Chen Ji was certain that Mr. Feng did not know about his Mountain Lord Sect’s Scripture, so he had no idea what the Eight Diagrams Lamps on the prison walls were sealing away.
This was a secret known only to the Mountain Lord.
Before he could speak, footsteps echoed down the long corridor.
Two prison guards arrived at Mr. Feng’s cell and calmly said, "Prisoner Feng Wenzheng, the Inner Court’s edict has arrived, and you are to be executed immediately."
