Chapter 312 Ordinary people? Heir?
Chapter 312 Ordinary people? Heir?
Hoshino Teru was panting, his chest heaving, his fury pouring out, his eyes like lightning in a rainstorm, almost piercing through Hoshino Kaede.
He took a few steps forward, almost sticking to him, and looked at him seriously.
Seeing his big reaction, Xingye Feng couldn't help but secretly smack his lips. This uncle is really a role model in the uncle world.
"Ahem, Xiaohui, you have to speak with conscience. You can't make assumptions about me casually. It's very irresponsible of me."
Hoshino Feng coughed lightly, then said seriously with a stern face.
But Xingye Hui didn't buy his tricks. Instead, he sneered: "Am I wrong? You think you are right to put the child in an orphanage."
Unexpectedly, as soon as this sentence came out, Xingye Feng nodded: "I really have this reason. This is not only for him, but also for the good of Konoha. Believe it or not."
Hearing this, Xingye Hui frowned and looked at him, a little hesitant in his heart, because his brother would never speak without a purpose, and then he raised his eyebrows and asked with his eyes: "Tell me about it."
Seeing this attitude of getting to the bottom of things, Xingye Feng thought about it, weighed the pros and cons, and decided to tell him everything.
Then the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he smiled: "What do you think of the current development of Konoha?"
After listening, Hoshino Teru frowned and thought for a while, then said: "Soon, since my eldest brother became the emperor, the ninja world has become much calmer, creating a superior environment."
"Except for large-scale wars, the ninja world has a relatively safe environment."
There was a look of joy in Hoshino Teru's eyes, and it was not difficult to see how fast Konoha had developed in recent years, which made him proud.
"And precisely because of this, Konoha was able to focus its mind and conquer and venture into some unknown areas."
After hearing these words, Xingye Feng nodded frequently, with a slight arc at the corner of his mouth.
"Yes, what you said are all positive influences. The establishment of the empire has stabilized the shaky ninja world."
"The negative impact of the war was also eliminated within a controllable range. Everything seemed so prosperous."
"But...under this prosperity, there are huge hidden dangers, which you have not seen."
As soon as he finished speaking, Hoshino Teru frowned and his eyes looked deep, as if he was thinking about something important.
He tried to find out the hidden danger he mentioned, and then kill it with a sword to prevent future troubles.
Seeing this, Hoshino Feng chuckled and patted his shoulder, motioning him to relax, and then heard Hoshino Teru's question.
"But what does this have to do with my nephew? You're not trying to change the subject."
Facing the suspicious look, Xingye Feng answered calmly.
"Of course it matters. Now this huge empire is maintained by me. It can be said that as long as I don't fall, everything will be stable as usual."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xingye Hui couldn't help but say: "As long as my brother is here, all these problems will not occur."
"No!" Xingye Feng said firmly. "Problems will accumulate, but they will not disappear, even if I stay the same."
"Besides...I won't be here all the time."
After saying that, Xingye Hui suddenly raised his head: "Why, you clearly..."
"Shh!" Before he could finish, Xingye Feng gently placed his finger to his lips, making a gesture of silencing him, interrupting his next words.
But even so, Xingye Feng still frowned and kept asking with his eyes, as if he must get an answer.
Seeing this, Xingye Feng slowly stood up, with a smile on his face all the time. Then he tapped his toes and arrived at the roof in the blink of an eye. Xingye Hui followed with his brows still furrowed.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked into the distance, a faint light flashed in his eyes. In his eyes, at this moment, Hoshino Makoto was playing happily with his new friends.
Hoshino Teru, who was standing aside, had a worried look on his face, as if he was still anxious about what he had just said.
Suddenly, after staring for a long time, Xingye Feng smiled and said, "This should be the first time that this child has taken the initiative to make friends."
Hoshino Teru remained silent: "......"
My ability is totally unreasonable. I can look wherever I want. If I do something improper one day, no one will know.
"That's good. As the future emperor, it is necessary to make friends."
As soon as he finished speaking, the pupils of Xingye Feng who was standing beside him suddenly contracted, and an incredible look appeared on his face, as if he had heard the most shocking news in the world.
"Brother...you didn't say anything wrong, did you?" He swallowed and asked in disbelief.
"Why did I say the wrong thing?" Xingye Feng asked him back.
"But..." Hoshino Teru hesitated to speak, but thought in his heart, since he had this idea, why not announce his identity from the beginning.
Xingye Feng looked at his hesitant expression, as if he had guessed what he was thinking, and smiled.
"How do you think his life would be different now if he had been with me from the beginning?"
Hearing this, Xingye Hui said without hesitation: "He must have been pampered since childhood, with fine clothes and delicious food, and everyone would regard him as the next heir to the empire..."
As he was speaking, he seemed to realize something, and he stopped talking and swallowed it back.
"That's right. If that happens, he will lose his freedom and won't be able to make friends as he pleases like he does now." Hoshino Kaede said with a smile, tenderness and doting in his eyes.
"But is this really good for him? He should have better treatment and a more noble status!" Hoshino Teru retorted.
"Besides... don't you think it's too cruel to deprive him of his parents' love in this way? He's just a child."
"Sigh..." Hoshino Feng sighed, patted his shoulder, and said earnestly.
"Don't talk nonsense. He only has a father, where does his mother come from?"
"Besides, growing up means constant loss. He is my only child, and I have been paying attention to him silently."
"The suffering at this moment is nothing. Let him live as an ordinary person. Only in this way can he gain the sincerity of others."
"As the only heir to the empire, your identity means that there will be no true love around you."
Even if there is, it will not be easy for him to identify. The human heart is like the sea, you can never see the deepest part.
"I believe he can. He is my son. You should try to believe him too."
Silence enveloped the two of them, as quiet and peaceful as Cambridge at night. The breeze gently brushed across their cheeks, like a dancing spirit, bringing a brief sense of freshness.
Hoshino Teru opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but the words were stuck in his throat and he couldn't utter them smoothly.
His brain seemed to be covered by a bunch of chaotic thoughts, and it was in a mess. His heart was like being attacked by a violent storm, which never stopped for a moment.
"That's it. Go back and think about it carefully."
After saying that, he flashed away, and the direction he left was exactly where Hoshino Makoto was.
