Section 91 Please understand what background setting means
Chen Chaonan couldn't have imagined that he would see the emperor so easily.
originally thought that the other party would definitely not show up casually, but after he entered the palace, he was brought directly to the emperor.
Moreover, it seems that the emperor's expression is very relaxed, and he is still in the mood to read a book in the study.
“…… See Your Majesty. ”
Chen Chaonan was a little uncomfortable and saluted the middle-aged emperor in civilian clothes in front of him.
With his aristocratic status, as long as he is not on any solemn occasion, he does not need to kneel, so he basically has no pressure, and the reason why he is so uncomfortable is entirely because in this large study, only the two of them are alone at present.
The guards who had led him to this place had completed their duties and reported to the rest of the room, and then exited the study.
Chen Chaonan didn't see anyone else here, it seemed that only the emperor was in the study.
The other party's behavior is too strange.
In such a dangerous period, the emperor should be wary of everyone, maybe the assassin will suddenly appear in the next second, or there will be an explosion or something, and it can be said that it is very dangerous to meet a small nobleman who is not very familiar with it alone.
Of course, Chen Chaonan knew that this emperor had the magic power of the wind attribute, and he still had some self-preservation power, but the so-called son of a daughter couldn't sit down, let alone the son of heaven?
It is impossible for the emperor not to understand this truth, so Chen Chaonan, who accepts a separate meeting, will inevitably be very nervous.
He has the aura of a villain, but he is very afraid that the emperor in front of him will suddenly and inexplicably spurt blood and fall down in the next second, allowing himself to suffer injustice.
This kind of thing is very possible in Otome to the world, and he doesn't know how this story will develop, maybe this is how the original plot came about, and then it will be really fun.
Chen Chaonan just wanted to leave as soon as possible, or maybe a few more people were present, so that his position would not be so dangerous.
"Child, you look nervous, this king...... Am I that scary? ”
The emperor put down the book in his hand, and when he noticed Chen Chaonan's uncomfortable expression, he showed a smile.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to summon you over to be my shield or anything, I've thoroughly checked the whole palace, and it should be safe for the time being, you don't have to worry about what danger will happen in the next moment."
You're the most dangerous, right......
Chen Chaonan forcibly pulled out a smile, trying not to look so weak.
"Haha, I haven't talked to you much before, it seems that you are really like what Linna described, but you are disgusting and kind, and I am not so terrible."
Chen Chaonan was stunned for a second, and then he realized that the "Linna" mentioned by the emperor was actually Lin Ziyun.
That's right...... Xiaoyun's official name in this world line is different......
"Relax, kid."
The Emperor sat down at the desk, then beckoned to Chen Chaonan to sit down beside him.
Chen Chaonan nodded and followed, and sat down on the chair in front of the desk.
He didn't look directly at the emperor in front of him, because it would be rude to do a good job like the etiquette on this world.
This emperor asked me to meet him directly after entering the palace, and I definitely have something to say...... I hope it won't be a bad plot......
Chen Chaonan muttered secretly in his heart.
"I'll get straight to the point, don't talk nonsense, I think, you also want to know why I met with you directly."
The emperor picked up the teapot on the desk and poured a cup of black tea for himself and Chen Chaonan.
"You can rest assured, there is no poison in this black tea, I have already checked it before."
Chen Chaonan, who heard this golden sentence like a death flag, really wanted to cry.
If this emperor suddenly fell after this, the reason is simply unknown.
Chen Chaonan looked at the steaming black tea in his hand, and he didn't mean to drink it at all.
However, this is the black tea poured by the emperor himself, so why should he pretend to take a sip.
Chen Chaonan looked at the emperor's teacup helplessly, this emperor had already drunk half of the black tea, even if he wanted to open his mouth to stop it, the other party's speed was too fast, so he didn't have time to react.
Chen Chaonan, who twitched the corners of his mouth, pretended to raise the teacup, but he didn't really drink it, just dipped his lips on the edge of the cup.
Even if it is highly toxic in nature, as long as you don't drink black tea, there should be no problem...... Right?
Chen Chaonan put down the teacup in his hand a little stiffly, to be honest, he didn't know whether there was poison in the black tea, but it would be better to be careful in everything.
He didn't want to be buried with the emperor.
Although it is said that if the two of them are alone, the emperor will still be buried together, but at least not immediately, at least there is a glimmer of life.
The Emperor glanced down at Chen Chaonan's teacup, then shook his head with a smile.
“…… Do you know why I arranged for you to marry my little daughter so quickly? ”
Coldly, the emperor spat out such a sentence.
Before Chen Chaonan, who couldn't react, could answer, the emperor continued to talk on his own.
"Do you believe the prophecy?"
"Uh...... Prophecy? ”
Because the topic jumped too much, Chen Chaonan could only subconsciously shake his head.
"It's normal not to believe, even if there is magic in this world, but the ethereal language is still fiction, but the nobles who have received a proper education may not believe it, but those fools and stupid women in the countryside believe deeply in the theory of gods and ghosts."
The emperor held up the teacup.
But he just stared at the black tea in the cup and didn't take another sip.
"In fact, it is no secret that the revolutionary army was born, because the commoners were dissatisfied with what the nobles did, because the nobles were too arrogant and domineering, and they kept squeezing the blood and sweat of the commoners, so there was such a sense of opposition...... But in fact, all of us know that the revolutionary army appeared because the spies of the enemy country got in the way. ”
The Emperor's tone was rather flat, as if he were telling a trivial matter.
"Then, in order to intensify the encouragement of the stupid country commoners, the so-called egalitarianism appeared in the revolutionary army, which further strengthened the hostility of the commoners who participated in the revolutionary army towards the aristocracy, and then, without knowing what the other side thought, came up with a false news that a discerning person knew at a glance was a lie."
Chen Chaonan's brows moved, and he connected what the emperor had said before, he already knew what this news was.
"It is a ridiculous parable that in the future, the Holy Maiden with golden eyes will be born in this kingdom, and then bring true equality to all people, and carry out real reforms...... At that time, the kingdom of dreams will be born. ”
Golden Eyes......
Chen Chaonan's eyes widened instantly.
"yes, it looks like you're aware of it."
The emperor drank all the black tea in his hand in one go.
"The Revolutionary Army has given a clear instruction to all its members, indicating that they have fully confirmed that this holy girl who will change this country is my youngest daughter Catherine!"
