Chapter 710: Ling Yuan's Support
"Is there such a thing? But why? Brother Gu is extremely talented and has extraordinary achievements, he can be called unparalleled in the world, even if he is a human race, it is impossible for his mother to refuse without hesitation, right? After all, my father is also a human race!" Ling Yuan said with a puzzled expression.
"Who says it's not! Your mother only allows the governor to set fires and doesn't allow the people to light the lamps!" Yu Qing said, spreading her hands.
"No, I have to talk to her properly!!How could she do this!" Ling Yuan suddenly stood up angrily and said.
Gu Chen hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Okay, Brother Yu, don't add fuel to the fire!
"Ahem!" Yu Qing suddenly coughed twice in embarrassment, and said, "I'm not wrong, she really didn't do a good job in this matter!"
"Could it be that there is something hidden in the matter?" Ling Yuan hurriedly asked Gu Chen.
Gu Chen waved his hand and said: "You don't care about this matter, Ran Xi is now with the blood of the Divine Dragon, the entire Dragon Clan will not agree to her being with me, even if your mother agrees, she will not be able to reverse the situation!"
"Even so, could you just give up like this?" Ling Yuan asked Gu Chen again.
Gu Chen smiled bitterly and said, "Then what can I do? Ran Xi herself has already compromised, can I still snatch her from the hands of the Dragon Clan? Not to mention whether I can fight or not, even if I succeed in the end, there will definitely be damage between me and the Dragon Clan, which will only make Ran Xi more embarrassed!"
"It's really a bit difficult to do this, but how can my sister compromise? This doesn't look like her temperament!" Ling Yuan said with a frown.
"This shows that she has grown up!" Gu Chenhuan said meaningfully.
"I don't understand!" Ling Yuan shook his head in confusion.
"You don't have to understand! Don't meddle in this matter, this matter is not something you can undo!" Gu Chen said with a wave of his hand at Ling Yuan.
"So, Brother Gu, are you letting go?" Ling Yuan said as he looked at Gu Chen curiously.
Gu Chen smiled and said: "Since it is Ran Xi's choice, then I respect her! However, I will not give up just yet! In the future, when I have the ability to control everything, I will definitely let her eliminate all worries, and when the time comes, she will naturally be able to return to me!"
"Well, I support you, you will definitely succeed!" Ling Yuan said to Gu Chen with a serious face.
Gu Chen smiled and patted Ling Yuan's shoulder.
"Since Brother Gu, you already have a countermeasure, why do you still look preoccupied?" Ling Yuan asked Gu Chen with a puzzled expression.
"I'm worried about something else!" Gu Chen shook his head and said.
"What's the matter, can I help?" Ling Yuan hurriedly asked Gu Chen.
Gu Chen turned to Ling Yuan and asked, "Have you heard of the Feng Clan?"
"I've heard of it! I've read a lot of demon classics during this time, and there are records about the Feng clan in the dragon clan's secret books!, and I also know that the destruction of the Feng clan is just a legend, they have been living in seclusion in unknown places, and one day they will return to the demon clan!" Ling Yuan nodded and said.
"Oh, it turns out that the Dragon Clan has always known about this! It seems that they didn't intend to seize the throne of the Feng Clan in the first place! and they didn't have the heart to destroy the Feng Clan!" Gu Chen said in surprise.
Ling Yuan said proudly: "Of course, the Dragon Clan is a proud race, even if I only have half of the Dragon Clan's bloodline, I am also proud of my bloodline! The Dragon Clan absolutely disdains to engage in those little tricks! Even if they want to compete for the throne, they are also glorious, and it is nonsense to say that the Dragon Clan is secretly harming the Feng Clan and plotting to seize the throne!"
Gu Chen couldn't help but smile, and then said to Ling Yuan, "It seems that you think of yourself as a demon clan more?"
Ling Yuan scratched his head and said, "Uh...... Actually, it's not, it's just that I'm too strange to my father! Although we've been together for a while, and he's been very nice to me, what I hope is that he'll always be with me! But he stays for a few days and then goes back! My mother is different, she often finds time to be by my side, and it's her company that makes my lonely heart gradually warm! And everyone in the Demon Emperor Palace treats me very well, and doesn't discriminate against me at all because I'm a half-demon! They all sincerely treat me as a prince!"
Gu Chen couldn't help but nodded, indeed, for Ling Yuan, who had lacked love since childhood, the love from his relatives was the most important! The companionship and care of the Demon Emperor, and the respect and obedience of everyone in the Demon Clan, this gave him a strong sense of belonging, but the Sword Immortal rarely had time to see him, so it was only natural that Ling Yuan would be closer to the Demon Clan!
"Don't talk about me, Brother Gu Chen, you continue to talk about the Feng Clan!" Ling Yuan suddenly said to Gu Chen.
Hearing this, Gu Chen continued: "You are right, the Feng Clan will indeed return to the Demon Clan! Moreover, the period is not far off!"
"That's good!After the return of the Feng Clan, the Demon Clan will become even stronger!" Ling Yuan said happily.
"Then what do you think of the Feng Clan's return to gain a foothold among the Demon Clan?" Gu Chen asked Ling Yuan.
"This ......," Ling Yuan suddenly groaned.
Gu Chen continued: "The Feng Clan has always been the royal family of the Demon Clan, and has made countless contributions to the Demon Clan, if it were not for the influence of the bloodline curse, which led to the death of a large number of masters, the Feng Clan would not be lonely! The Dragon Clan has no chance to replace the Feng Clan and become the Demon Clan's royal family! Now that the bloodline curse of the Feng Clan has been lifted, do you think that if the Feng Clan returns, can it enjoy the inheritance of the Demon Emperor on an equal footing with the Dragon Clan?"
Ling Yuan nodded without hesitation and said, "If that's the case, then the Feng Clan deserves equal power with the Dragon Clan!"
"Oh, you don't care at all?" asked Gu Chen in surprise to Ling Yuan.
Ling Yuan said as a matter of course: "What do you care about? This is what they deserve! As Brother Gu said, the Feng Clan has always been the Demon Clan's royal family, and my Dragon Clan has just taken over this burden from the Feng Clan when the Feng Clan is in danger! Now that their crisis has been lifted, they don't want the Dragon Clan to give up all their power, but they just hope to have the right to inherit the position of the Demon Emperor on an equal footing with the Dragon Clan, which is reasonable and reasonable!"
Gu Chenwan'er said with a smile: "If everyone is as sensible as you and ignores power, then there won't be so many disputes!"
"According to what you say, could it be that someone doesn't agree to this?" Ling Yuan asked Gu Chen curiously.
Gu Chen shook his head and said, "Your mother has not expressed her position for the time being, but Prime Minister Hu Cheng is in favor of this matter! However, your mother still said that she would have to discuss it with the demon clan ministers before she came to a conclusion!"
"What else are you discussing! Hu Shan has agreed, can the others not agree?" Ling Yuan said with a strange expression.
"I'm not worried about the demon clan ministers, if Prime Minister Hu Cheng takes the lead, most of them should follow suit!" Gu Chen touched his chin and said.
"Then Brother Gu, what else do you have to worry about?" Ling Yuan asked Gu Chen curiously.
"What I'm worried about is that the Dragon Clan refuses to let go of power!" Gu Chen replied.
"Dragon Clan?" Ling Yuan was stunned for a moment.
Gu Chen nodded and said, "Your mother should not express her opinion on this matter, she should always maintain a neutral attitude, and the rest will depend on the game between the Dragon Clan and the demon clan ministers who agree with the Feng Clan's division of power!"
"Probably not, right?" Ling Yuan said with a frown.
Gu Chen said slowly: "The Dragon Clan may disdain to engage in those small actions, but if the Feng Clan suddenly appears and wants to take power away from them, they may not be reconciled! After all, the power of the royal clan is extremely powerful, if the Feng Clan defeats the Dragon Clan in the competition for the position of the Demon Emperor in the future, then the Feng Clan will definitely become the Demon Clan royal family again! The status of the Dragon Clan is not to say that it has plummeted, at least it is far less comfortable than now, so even if the Feng Clan is weak now, they have to guard against it!"
"However, this is what the Feng Clan deserves!" Ling Yuan said with a puzzled expression.
Gu Chenhuan said meaningfully: "Some things have been occupied by others for a long time, and over time, their original owners will be forgotten! Even if they occupy them, they will gradually become accustomed to it, thinking that this thing should have belonged to them in the first place!"
Ling Yuan still felt a little as if he didn't understand.
Ling Yuan said with a serious face: "No matter what happens to the other dragon clans!But as the son of the Demon Emperor, I at least have the right to speak! I will definitely support the Feng clan!"
"Are you really willing to speak for the Feng Clan?" Gu Chen asked Ling Yuan with a solemn expression.
"Hmm!" Ling Yuan nodded solemnly.
Gu Chen patted Ling Yuan's shoulder with a look of relief and said, "I really didn't mistake you!"
"Brother Gu Chen cares so much, could it be that he is acting as a lobbyist for the Feng Clan this time?" Ling Yuan asked Gu Chen with a smile.
"It's not a secret, I'm here to negotiate with the Dragon Clan on behalf of the Feng Clan!" Gu Chen nodded and said.
"Brother Gu Chen has helped me so many times, since this time it is Brother Gu Chen's business, then I should do my best!" Ling Yuan said to Gu Chen with a serious face.
"Thank you!" Gu Chen patted Ling Yuan's shoulder gratefully and said.
"Why are you polite to me!By the way, Brother Gu, did Mother say when to discuss this matter?" Ling Yuan waved his hand and said to Gu Chen.
"Tomorrow, a court meeting will be held in the Imperial Palace, and the Demon Emperor will discuss this matter in public!" Gu Chen replied.
"Okay, then I'll be there on time tomorrow!" Ling Yuan nodded and said.
"Since it's tomorrow's business, then there's no need to worry for the time being!, why don't the two eldest brothers stay in my Dongyang Palace today?" Ling Yuan said to Gu Chen and Yu Qing again.
"Isn't this okay?we are outsiders after all, how can we live in the palace of you, the prince of the demon clan?" Gu Chen said with some hesitation.
"It's okay, Mother knows about our relationship, she won't say anything! Besides, she loves me very much and will never blame me!" Ling Yuan waved his hand and said.
"Let's not mention this matter for the time being, do you know where General Niu Ting is now?" Gu Chen suddenly said to Ling Yuan.
"Do you want to probe General Niu Ting's tone in advance?" Ling Yuan asked Gu Chen curiously.
Gu Chen nodded and said: "Niu Ting is a representative figure of the military, I remember that the current right general of the demon clan, Leopard Sanniang, is also his former subordinate, right? Therefore, if we can win him over, it is equivalent to getting the support of most of the military generals, and tomorrow's court meeting, our chances of winning will be much greater!"
"What Brother Gu said is extremely true! In this way, I will personally take you to visit General Niu Ting! This will show more sincerity!" Ling Yuan said to Gu Chen.
"That's very good!" Gu Chen said with a satisfied nod.
......
————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
Niu Ting is the commander of the Absolute Army, not the forbidden army, so Niu Ting is generally outside the palace.
Therefore, Ling Yuan directly took Gu Chen and Yu Qing out of the Demon Emperor Palace and went to the garrison of the Earth Absolute Army.
The garrison of the Earth Absolute Army was three hundred miles south of the Demon Emperor Palace, and it could be reached by Gu Chen and the others in a moment, so after a while, the three of them had already arrived at their destination.
