"Dugu Bo, have you ever announced that you will step down as a guest of the royal family and disassociate yourself from my royal family?"

In the imperial study, the Snowy Night Emperor suddenly asked.

"Not really."

Xue Qinghe, who was pretending to be Qianrenxue, shook his head and said, "Dugu Bo should still be grateful for the favor of my Heaven Dou Imperial Family, but if we clash with Ziwei Palace, he will definitely help Zhou Chen." After all......"

"After all, Zhou Chen is his grandson-in-law."

The Snowy Night Emperor smiled bitterly, and said almost in a helpless tone: "Female Title Douluo, Dugu Bo, and the Xuanwu clan, all of them are from Ziwei Palace......"

"Father, there is also the Nine Heart Begonia family. If she chooses between the royal family and Zhou Chen, under the crown of Immortal Douluo, she will definitely choose her son-in-law. ”

Qian Lingxue added mercilessly.

"Hiss~"

The Snowy Night Emperor couldn't help but gasp, and if he didn't think about it, he didn't think that there were so many people who were Zhou Chen's people in the strong family that the Heaven Dou Empire relied on.

In other words, offending Zhou Chen is equivalent to offending Dugu Bo, Jiuxin Begonia and Xuanwu clan, who originally belonged to the Heaven Dou Empire.

It's really scary to think about.

Seeing that Xue Ye had been shocked by the power of Ziwei Palace, Qian Lingxue, who had ill intentions, struck while the iron was hot and said: "Father, we must be friendly with Zhou Chen, otherwise there will be signs of instability in the empire." ”

Emperor Xueye nodded, agreeing with Xue Qinghe's point of view, but still said with some hesitation: "Qinghe, what you said is right, it's just that because of the avalanche, we have already made a bad deal with Zhou Chen, and if we want to save this relationship, I'm afraid it will be difficult." ”

"It's not hard."

Qian Lingxue raised her head and said solemnly: "According to the original plan, we married Sister Xue Ke to Zhou Chen, and the two sides became a family, and the relationship was naturally saved." ”

Hearing this, Xue Ye's face immediately became difficult to look at.

Zhou Chen threatened to kill the prince with his front foot and extorted three million gold soul coins from the royal family, and the royal family sent the princess to the door with his back foot, licking his face and getting back together with Zhou Chen......

When this news spreads, where will the face of the royal family go?

Isn't the reputation of the royal family that has accumulated over thousands of years going to be ruined?

"Father, it's good to leave this matter to the son-in-law, the son-in-law has a way, which can not only protect the reputation of my royal family, but also win over Zhou Chen."

Qianrenxue swears by the way.

"Then I'll leave everything to Qinghe."

Looking at Xue Qinghe's confident appearance, the Snow Night Emperor's face softened slightly, and he couldn't help but feel a burst of relief in his heart.

His eldest son, in terms of ability, seems to be no worse than the second son who has passed away, and the Heaven Dou Empire can be regarded as a successor......

Three days later.

The center of Heaven Dou City, near the Imperial Palace.

A huge mansion covering an area of hundreds of acres is very lively and full of people at this time.

This mansion originally belonged to the second prince, Xueluochuan. After the second prince was poisoned, this place has been vacant for a long time.

Today, this mansion suddenly became lively, naturally because the mansion ushered in a new owner, Zhou Chen.

That's right, after Qian Ling Xue obtained the authorization of the Snowy Night Emperor, as soon as she made a move, she gave Zhou Chen a mansion worth millions of gold soul coins.

Not only that, in order to win over Zhou Chen, the royal family also wanted to give Zhou Chen the title of duke, but Zhou Chen refused.

Just kidding, he Zhou Chen has no interest in being subservient to others, whether it is substantive or nominal, the traverser can't explain!

Unless Xue Ye gave him the throne, he would not consider it.

At this time, Zhou Chen was in the courtyard of the new mansion, supervising the chamberlains in the palace, and moved the heavy black boxes one by one into the secret room of the mansion.

There were three hundred chests, and inside were three million gold soul coins.

To be able to raise three million gold soul coins in cash in three days, I have to say that although the Heaven Dou Empire's royal family is rare, it still has a lot of background in all aspects.

At this moment, a clear voice sounded, "Zhou Chen, I'm not late." ”

Zhou Chen looked back and saw Xue Qinghe, dressed in casual clothes, no, it should be said that it was Qian Lingxue, accompanied by a beautiful blonde girl, who walked over.

The girl is Xue Ke, Zhou Chen remembers that this Nizi is his fan, and she asked him for an autograph.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really a trustworthy person, and he says three days without delay."

For those who can bring benefits to himself, Zhou Chen did not hesitate to praise them.

Hearing this, Qian Lingxue smiled and said, "To be honest, you have to thank Xue Ke." If she hadn't been in a hurry, I wouldn't have given you these three million gold soul coins within three days. ”

"Oh?"

Zhou Chen was a little confused, and he couldn't figure out the situation at all.

What do you mean?

Xue Ke, a fan, has been fanatical to the point of giving his own money to Zhou Chen?

glanced at Xue Ke, Xue Ke at this time, her face was blushing and delicate, and when she saw Zhou Chen's gaze, she lowered her head in shame.

This made Zhou Chen even more confused about the situation.

What he didn't know was that the reason why Xue Ke urged his eldest brother and father to send the three million gold soul coins over quickly was because Xue Ye told her that this money was her dowry.

That's right, the three million gold soul coins sent by Qian Ling Xue are not indemnity at all, but Princess Xueke's dowry.

It's just that Zhou Chen doesn't know it yet.

Qian Lingxue smiled and said: "Xue Ke, this girl has always admired you, Zhou Chen, you come to the palace, and we will sit together in a few days." ”

"Okay, I'll go when I have time."

Zhou Chen politely declined.

"No, it's a formal invitation, you must come."

Qianrenxue's wrist flashed, and there was a red post in her hand.

"This is an invitation to the palace banquet hosted by my father himself. Three days later, in the evening, the banquet officially began, and you must give me this face. ”

After that, Qian Lingxue handed the invitation to Zhou Chen.

And Xue Ke on the side couldn't help but say at this time: "Zhou Chen, you must come." ”

"Okay, since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the princess have kindly invited, I will definitely arrive on time."

Zhou Chen nodded.

As the so-called cannibalism is soft-mouthed and short-handed, the royal family gave him a mansion worth millions of gold soul coins, and sent three million gold soul coins as promised, if he refused to even go to a banquet, it would be too uninteresting.

Seeing Zhou Chen's promise, Qian Lingxue smiled and said, "Then I'll wait for your master." Don't bother, little sister, it's time for us to go back. ”

As she spoke, Qian Lingxue took Xue Ke's hand, and the two of them left quickly as if they were fleeing.

This made Zhou Chen inexplicable.

Of course, if Zhou Chen knew that this banquet was actually an engagement banquet set up by the royal family to force him to marry Xue Ke, he might not be surprised.

That's right, according to the plan of Qianyue and the Snow Night Emperor, at the banquet three days later, the Snow Night Emperor will publicly announce Zhou Chen and Xue Ke's engagement in front of all the Heaven Dou City nobles and soul master families.

And the three million gold soul coins as an indemnity will also be advertised by the royal family as an unprecedentedly expensive princess to marry.

At that time, in front of the public, as long as Zhou Chen didn't want to completely turn his face with the Tiandou royal family, he would have to pinch his nose and admit the marriage.

However, what the Snow Night Emperor and Qian Lingxue didn't know was that the trap they set was simply redundant, and they completely overestimated Zhou Chen's character and integrity.

In fact, as long as the royal family asks Zhou Chen directly, if he is willing to marry Princess Xueke, there is no need to make so many schemes.

Because, Zhou Chen, who has always been good at eating soft rice and eating soft rice hard, will definitely not refuse.

Marrying a princess or something, he likes it the most.
