After the Breakup, I Inherited the Northern King
墨書 Inktalez
In the Northern Territory, where the bitter cold turned water into ice, Qin Feng was cast out by his family, left to die in this desolate wilderness. He watched as his captors walked away, showing no signs of panic; instead, he surveyed the icy landscape with keen interest.
Qin Feng headed straight for the Northern Duke's Manor, contemplating how to transform this harsh land into his paradise and make those who abandoned him regret their decision.
"The Old Prince left a will before his death, passing the title to you..." The butler trembled as he handed over the Tiger Tally to Qin Feng, disbelief evident in his voice.
Qin Feng took the Tiger Tally with a cold laugh, "The Qin Family, a bunch of fools."
"A waste abandoned by his family dares to inherit the title of Northern King?" A woman clad in silver armor looked at him disdainfully.
Qin Feng regarded her, a strange familiarity washing over him. In an instant, he pulled her into an embrace and whispered in her ear, "Sister, it's been a long time."
Holding Lin Qingxue close, he murmured softly, "What I said about amnesia wasn't entirely true. I have lost some memories, but I know who I am and what my mission is. I concealed my identity to observe the situation in the Northern Territory; now, the time has come."
Lin Qingxue stiffened noticeably; he felt her fists clench tightly, veins bulging on the back of her hands. Qin Feng leaned closer and added, "My true identity is..." He paused for effect, watching her incredulous expression before stating deliberately, "Crown Prince."
Lin Qingxue pushed him away abruptly, her eyes wide with shock and disbelief. Qin Feng calmly adjusted his wrinkled collar and continued, "The military affairs of the Northern Territory are in disarray with enemies lurking nearby; I need your assistance."
Her breath quickened as her lips trembled slightly; she seemed about to say something but ultimately bit her lip and nodded silently. She turned sharply and strode out of the room, her silver armor reflecting cold light in the dim corridor. Outside the window, the wind howled as snowflakes fell like willow catkins, blanketing the entire Northern Territory.
Meanwhile, far away in Kyoto, Zhao Wujie paced in his study, his face dark with anger. "Qin Feng, that waste has actually inherited the title of Northern King!" He slammed his teacup onto the floor with a crash. A figure clad in black appeared silently behind him and knelt on one knee. "My lord, what are your orders?" Zhao Wujie's eyes glinted with malice. "Send our best assassins to the Northern Territory; ensure that Qin Feng is killed!" The figure disappeared into the night at once. Outside the study, cold winds howled as branches swayed ominously.
Wang Zhong stood in the courtyard of Northern Duke's Manor, gazing at the distant snow-capped mountains with a deep sigh. "Your Highness, you have finally returned," he murmured to himself. He turned and entered the study to write letters informing other Northern Territory generals about Qin Feng's ascension. After finishing the letters, he summoned a Trusted Guard. "Deliver these letters secretly to each general; remember to be cautious." The guard took the letters and hurried away from the study. Wang Zhong approached the window and watched as the guard disappeared into the distance; a glint of determination flashed in his eyes as he began secretly contacting reliable generals to strengthen Qin Feng's power in the Northern Territory.
In the Northern Di Royal Court, Tuoba Ye sat on a resplendent throne listening to reports from scouts. "Qin Feng, that waste abandoned by the Qin Family has become the new Northern King?" He sneered contemptuously. "Truly heaven's assistance!" He suddenly stood up and walked toward a wall displaying a map of the Northern Territory, his gaze fixed intently on its mountains and rivers. "Issue orders to gather troops and prepare to march south!" His voice echoed through the hall with an air of invincibility. Outside, war drums beat and horns sounded as the Northern Di Army began assembling for an invasion of Northern Territory borders. Tuoba Ye smiled cruelly at the sight outside; it was as if he could already envision Northern Territory's fall. He clenched his fists tightly, ambition flickering in his eyes.
"You... you really are..." Lin Qingxue's eyes widened in disbelief as she instinctively placed her right hand over her chest, feeling her heart race violently. The words Qin Feng whispered in her ear echoed like thunder in her mind, leaving her momentarily unable to process what she had just heard.
Qin Feng held her hand, feeling the warmth of her palm, and spoke gently, "Qingxue, you have suffered over the years. The reason I concealed my identity was to investigate the truth behind what happened back then. Now that the time is right, I no longer need to hide." He paused, his gaze deep as he looked into the distance. "As for my amnesia, it was not a disguise but rather a deliberate act by someone. Now that my memories have returned, I will avenge the grievances of that time!" A sharp light flashed in Qin Feng's eyes as he turned to Lin Qingxue and said firmly, "The situation in the Northern Territory is turbulent now; I need your help."
Lin Qingxue took a deep breath, striving to calm the turmoil within her. Although Qin Feng's explanation shocked her, she still harbored doubts about his identity and intentions. However, military orders were paramount; as the daughter of the Protector General, she was obliged to obey the commands of the Northern King. "What are your orders, Your Highness?" Lin Qingxue nodded slightly, her tone returning to its usual coolness.
Qin Feng released Lin Qingxue's hand and walked to the table, picking up a Northern Territory Map and spreading it out before them. "I need you to assist me in reorganizing the military affairs of the Northern Territory, eliminating those corrupt and incompetent generals and replacing them with truly capable individuals."
He pointed to several locations on the map. "Especially these passes; we must station reliable generals there." Qin Feng's voice was low and powerful, carrying an undeniable authority. Lin Qingxue approached the table and examined the map closely, her brow slightly furrowed. "Your Highness, these passes are crucial positions, and the stationed generals are all trusted aides of high-ranking officials in court. It may not be easy to replace them."
