Konoha: I was living a peaceful life, but was backstabbed by the system

Qufeng just nodded and continued to follow Yuchao into the mansion.

Seeing that Qufeng was fine, Yu turned around and continued to lead the way.

This Daming Prefecture is almost as big as the Yunzhong clan’s territory, or perhaps even larger.

Everywhere there were flowers that Qufeng had never seen before, and there was also a very clear pond.

There were also many maids coming and going in the mansion, all wearing the unique costumes of the Uzumaki clan.

When they saw Yu and Qufeng, they all bowed to them.

Qufeng waved his hand, indicating that they didn't need to be polite, and continued to walk deeper.

"Why does this Daming Mansion feel like a maze?"

Yu smiled when he heard this: "It was also Lord Ashina's request. We want to prevent the assassins from finding the Daimyo's location immediately."

After hearing this, Qufeng didn't know what to say. This Ashina is really afraid of death.

However, it might be precisely these arrangements that allowed him to escape death and avoid being captured.

Now we can vaguely see a building. That should be the daimyo's residence. It's really not easy to find it.

It has been almost five minutes since I entered the mansion before I saw any proper buildings.

If you don’t know, you might think you have walked into a zoo.

After Yu and Qufeng passed through the bamboo forest path for the last time, they finally arrived at the daimyo's residence.

To be precise, it should be the residence of the eldest prince now.

It was said that the eldest prince was appointed regent by Ashina himself, and he also produced a letter with his seal.

He has gained the upper hand among all the brothers, and formally speaking, he should be the prince most likely to succeed to the throne.

As for Ashina, many members of the tribe believed that he was dead.

But Qu Feng doesn't think so.

"Sir, we are here."

Taking the windbreaker and looking up, a house similar to the one in Konoha Village appeared in front of him.

This was something Qu Feng had not expected. Everything before was so personal, but when it came to the residence, it turned out to be in the style of the houses in Konoha Village?

The difference between before and after made Qu Feng a little dazed for a moment.

"Sir, please come in."

Qu Feng straightened his robe and then waved his hand.

The puppets behind him walked up to him and pushed open the door of the house.

Qu Feng strode in with his head held high and his chest puffed out, and the eight puppets followed him in an orderly manner.

As soon as he entered the house, Qu Feng emitted a weak chakra and sensed the situation in the entire house.

Except for Yu behind him, only the eldest prince sitting in the main seat is a ninja, and the others are ordinary people.

The strength of these two people is not very high, probably around the level of Jonin, but whether they have hidden strength... that's hard to say.

When the eldest prince saw Qufeng coming in with a team of ninjas, he immediately smiled, stood up and walked forward to welcome them.

"Dear guest from Konoha who has come from afar, I am the eldest prince of the Whirlpool Country, and I would like to welcome you."

Qu Feng looked at the eldest prince and smiled: "We came to the Land of Whirlpools from Konoha to help the eldest prince quell the rebellion, but now it seems that you have no sincerity."

When the eldest prince heard this, the smile on his face froze immediately: "What are you talking about, my dear guest? I am sincere to you, and I am just waiting for you to defeat my brothers who are trying to rebel."

The eldest prince's face had a lot of expressions, but Qufeng could see that all of them were not from the heart and were just for Qufeng to see.

"When I first arrived on the island, only this one servant came to pick me up. When I entered the Uzushio Village, there was no one lining the streets to welcome me. Is this sincerity?"

"What! How could this happen!"

Countless diamond chains suddenly appeared behind the eldest prince, wrapping up Yu tightly and pulling him in front of him!

"That's what I told you to do! You're receiving guests like this!"

He then threw him against the wall, with blood flowing out of his mouth and nose.

Yu quickly got up, constantly saying words of apology, looking extremely humble.

Although Qu Feng pretended to be very arrogant and overbearing, he really couldn't stand to see this kind of scene.

Especially when I found out that what the eldest prince thought in his heart was completely different from what he said, I felt it was even more noisy.

"Alright, Your Highness, please let him go. He is polluting my eyes."

"Did you hear that? Get out of here now!"

Yu kowtowed several times and finally walked out with a smile.

The smile seemed to be engraved on his face, from the moment he first met her, when he was blown away by Feng Qu, to now when he was punished by the eldest prince.

He always has a smiling face.

At first I felt it was humble, but after seeing it too much I just felt weird.

Turning around, the eldest prince was looking at Qu Feng eagerly: "My dear guest? Can we talk about what is in the letter?"

Chapter 265 Chatting in the House

Turning around, the eldest prince was looking at Qu Feng eagerly: "My dear guest? Can we talk about what is in the letter?"

Qu Feng smiled and said, "Okay, okay. Please take a seat, Prince."

"Please take a seat, my dear guest."

The eldest prince returned to the main seat, while Qufeng sat in the second seat below him. The distance between them was quite far, and it felt like they were staring at each other from a distance.

"Prince, can you tell me the situation first? I also need to make some plans."

Then he pointed at the puppets behind him and said, "My men are all very good at killing people. It's easy for them to deal with your brothers."

Unexpectedly, the eldest prince almost spit out a mouthful of tea after hearing this. He waved his hands and said, "No, no, no, my dear guest, you misunderstood. It's enough to just defeat him. There's no need to kill him! You must not kill anyone!"

"Oh?"

Qu Feng asked with a bit of doubt: "Half Prince has already been killed, hasn't he? Since the precedent of brothers killing each other has already been set, why are you still worrying so much?"

The eldest prince pounded the table dejectedly, and this time Qu Feng saw that his expression was somewhat sincere.

"Eighth Brother was not killed by us, but died on his own. However, he died in a gathering of our brothers. Even if we announce it to the public, no one will believe it."

Then he looked at Qu Feng with a fiery gaze: "But we are brothers! No matter how we fight for the position of daimyo, we will never kill our brothers!"

Qu Feng waved his hand and said indifferently: "Alright, then do as you please. This is a matter between you two brothers anyway."

Then he added: "But you need to explain to me the reason why Hachioji committed suicide."

When the eldest prince mentioned this matter, the expression on his face turned into confusion and puzzlement.

"We were at a gathering that day, and although we had begun to argue over the position of daimyo, it had not reached the point we have now."

"We brothers talked from the afternoon till night, with various ideas colliding and arguments going on. Just when the meeting was about to end, my eighth brother suddenly pulled out a knife!"

When the eldest prince said this, his eyes turned red and bloodshot covered his eyeballs. “Then he said like a madman, ‘I will take everything back sooner or later.’ Then he committed suicide.”

After saying all this, the eldest prince took a big gulp of tea and breathed heavily.

After listening to it, Qu Feng did not get any useful clues. Instead, he became even more confused and completely bewildered.

What do you mean by taking everything back? How can I be reborn?

Qufeng was a little confused about the mental state of the Eighth Prince, but there was a high possibility that he was being controlled by someone using illusion.

For example, when they first landed on the island, the rebel ninja leader's self-destruction was manipulated.

This may also be the case with Hachioji, but it is not ruled out that he believed in some evil cult and was brainwashed.

There are quite a lot of people in Naruto who are good at this kind of thing, such as Black Zetsu.

With a little trick, he was able to play Uchiha Madara around in circles. He was working for Black Zetsu from beginning to end, and he was so conscientious.

But if it really is Black Zetsu, then what’s the point of him plotting against the Whirlpool Country?

Qu Feng was also a little confused, but these were all just guesses and could not be taken seriously.

"Your Highness, please accept my condolences."

After a long while, the eldest prince gradually calmed down and said, "I am sorry to have embarrassed you, but my brother's death has been a great blow to me. I think you should understand."

Qufeng nodded.

"Has the eldest prince seen any outsiders on the island?"

"Outsiders? There were quite a lot of outsiders here before the lockdown. After the lockdown was issued a few days ago, all the outsiders were expelled."

They have all been expelled, which is different from Qufeng's guess.

"Did that rain also come to the Whirlpool Country a few years ago?"

The eldest prince was stunned when he heard this, then he smiled and said, "Yes, he has been serving me for a long time, and I was the one who gave him the name."

The eldest prince shouldn't tell lies now, so does that mean there really is nothing wrong with the rain?

Just an ordinary servant? But Qu Feng always felt that he didn't look like one, perhaps because of some preconceived notions.

But Qufeng will continue to keep an eye on the rain.

"What's wrong, dear guest? You look a little confused. Is there something wrong with the rain?"

Qu Feng waved his hand: "It's okay, I just saw that this little servant is very dedicated. He didn't get angry even though I scolded him so many times along the way."

"Hey, he's just a servant, how dare he get angry with you, my dear guest?"

"Hahaha, that's true. Okay, okay, let's not talk about him anymore. Let's talk about other things, your brothers."

The eldest prince waited for a long time until the topic finally came up, and then he said to Qu Feng: "Among us brothers, only my second brother and I have a close relationship, and the others have moved out of the Uzushio Village."

The situation was just as he had guessed. Kushina had also mentioned the contact with the second prince in her message.

Uzumaki Ashina ran away with Kushina only after meeting the eldest prince and the second prince, and finally disappeared.

"It's rare that the eldest prince has a close brother, but doesn't the second prince have ambitions for the position of daimyo?"
