Chapter 43: Spring

Where is the prosperity of the small city now, the joy has fallen silent.

The past is like smoke, in the hazy night.

The moonlight is vast and the city is dark, speechless and sleepless.

There have been some absurd and helpless years, and it has been half a year unconsciously. Luo Fan has gradually integrated into this vast and wonderful world, and the Fighting Spirit Continent is far from being as simple as imagined, everything is just a new appearance.

If he can't figure things out, he will be content with the status quo, go with the flow, and don't think about it too much.

Three days later, there was a big news from the Dragon Soul Academy.

Today, the emperor personally issued a holy decree to summon a disciple of the Dragon Soul Academy into the palace, and was named a duke, awarded the title of Protector of the Country, and added an official and a fief of thousands of miles.

For a while, this news shocked the capital, and now I want to ask who is the most famous person, all of whom are the youngest dukes in the history of this empire, and they are hereditary dukes. At the same time, he also has the title of the supreme glory of the Venerable Protector, this person is Luo Fan, who saved the life of the sixth prince Han Chen that day.

Today's emperor has great strength and balance, and the emperor's weighing technique is even more extreme. How could such an irrational thing be done? Perhaps only the person concerned can know.

That day, Luo Fan's Hell Incense swept across a radius of several miles, devouring the power of countless Imperial City guards. The eldest prince and the second prince obviously didn't expect that the most elite troops would not succeed in strangling the six princes, but were killed by a sudden poisonous fog.

Even the countless masters hidden in it were also the same, including several great magicians, martial arts grandmasters, and even three royal knights who were secretly attacked, and were inadvertently attacked by the incense and died.

This carefully planned layout, in the end, sacrificed most of the troops of the eldest prince and the second prince. Because of Luo Fan's Hell Incense, the people and horses of the Six Princes had time to support, and they annihilated countless fish that slipped through the net in one fell swoop. Coupled with the five thousand elites who died in the poisonous mist, they had no chance to make a comeback.

The Six Princes sent countless masters to secretly attack and kill the two of them, and their means were to do everything, and in the end, they got their wish, and no one fought for the throne again.

Not many people know about this, and the royal family has always been fighting openly and secretly, and even if some people know something, they pretend not to know it.

When a person succeeds, the past will be forgotten. Even if you can't, you can only bury it in your heart, that's the law.

The court, the Lotus Pavilion.

"The grass people have seen six ......" Luo Fan paused and changed his words: "I have seen Your Majesty." ”

Leisurely and elegant scenery, next to the lotus pavilion is a turquoise and clear lotus pond. The lotus flowers in the pond are green and fragrant, and the koi in the pond are in a group vying for fish food.

The current emperor Han Chen sprinkled some fish food on the pond from time to time, and the koi in the pond were competing for food, and he looked at the koi swimming freely with interest. Although he is already the monarch of a country, he is still dressed casually, and his simple and clean clothes cannot hide the majesty of being in the royal family.

"Luo Fan, now that you are a duke and you are known as the Venerable Protector of the Country, you don't need to be polite even if you see the emperor. Han Chen said lightly, his words changed, and said, "Moreover, in front of you, I am not the monarch of a country, but only your big brother Han." ”

Luo Fan smiled slightly and said, "Brother Han." ”

Han Chen raised his eyebrows, but he showed a somewhat strange smile and said, "Brother Luo, are you still satisfied with my reward?"

Luo Fan also raised his eyebrows, looked at him, and said, "It's still a good job." ”

Han Chen pretended to be sad, sighed mournfully, and said, "Alas, you really won't be polite. I feel a little distressed when I say this, so much fiefdom wealth. I just became the lord of the country and had a ruthless blood, you are good, but you are still a little unappreciative. ”

Luo Fan didn't speak, looking at the scenery of the royal family. In the distance, there are green bamboos, rockery bonsai, and a quiet arrangement of elegance and dust. In the distance, there is a winding path, but it is made of small stones of different colors. In an instant, I saw that the swimming fish and koi were competing with each other for food, but there was a small splash.

"Brother Luo, if you have nothing to do in the future, come to me for a drink and chat, this palace can come in and out at will with your identity. Han Chen patted Luo Fan's shoulder, and a trace of vicissitudes flashed in his eyes. He continued: "Luo Fan, do you think I am cold-blooded and too decisive......

Luo Fan was expressionless and silent for a while, but suddenly laughed and said, "Brother Han, when did you become so hypocritical?"

Han Chen was also stunned, obviously he didn't expect Luo Fan to say this, he immediately smiled and shook his head.

Luo Fan glanced at him, as if talking to himself, and said, "No matter what you do, as long as you have a clear conscience." ”

Han Chen, the sixth prince who competed for the throne, killed his two brothers, and even involved countless villains, even if he didn't massacre, he did a lot of dark and bad things. Although Han Chen didn't say it explicitly, Luo Fan knew it very well in his heart, and he comforted him at the right time.

"What a clear conscience......"

If I don't kill them, they will kill me. Even if I let them go today, will they let me go one day?" Han Chen looked at the pond water silently, speechless for a while.

The sky is clear, the clouds are white and pure, floating freely in the blue sky.

The two of them sat and lay on the green grass, the grass was delicate, the leaves were soft, and a unique aroma of grass wafted into the noses of the two.

"My favorite thing when I was a kid was to lie on the grass and look up at the sky at night. If it's a sunny day, stars will appear in the sky. At that time, I thought that if everyone will turn into a star after death, I must be the brightest and brightest ......."

Han Chen, who was lying on the grass, had a dog's tail grass in his mouth, his hands behind his head, and a smile on his face. A gentle breeze blew, but he closed his eyes in great enjoyment. At this moment, it seems that all intrigue and trade-offs are no longer important. It is as if the soul is also like the clouds that go with the wind, galloping freely.

Luo Fan, who was sitting on the grass on the side, couldn't help but feel a little emotional, unconsciously it had been half a year, and he had been inexplicably involved in a death match many times. Fortunately, it is also fateful, and many times it has been a disaster.

Han Chen turned his head and asked, "Luo Fan, what are your plans in the future?"

Intend?

yes, what should I do in the future?

There seems to be a voice in his heart that wants him to break out, that is, wandering the world, the four seas are home!

Isn't it good to be your own duke with peace of mind and enjoy glory and wealth all your life? What's the point of being busy fighting and killing all day long? You can even let go of cultivation......

Thousands of thoughts appeared in Luo Fan's mind, but he didn't know how to choose.

Luo Fan smiled bitterly and replied, "Let it be......"

Han Chen said, "If possible, I hope you can stay and help me." ”

Luo Fan was a little strange and joked: "You are the monarch of a country, what else do you want me to help you with? Do you want me to help you manage the affairs of the state as the emperor?"

"You know, our country has been allowing them to preach unbridled because of the oppression of the temple, and even now that their nest has been wiped out, there are still many people who are lucky enough to survive to flee back. I believe that it won't be long before someone from the Western Continent will be sent over. Han Chen said in a serious tone:

Luo Fan said indifferently: "The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, will we be afraid of those people?"

Han Chen hesitated for a moment and said, "This is naturally not afraid, no matter how powerful those people in the West are, we will not be afraid of them, but ......"

Luo Fan suddenly thought that the disappearance of peerless powerhouses such as Ao Cangtian and Mo Yun would not affect the situation?

"If you have the opportunity in the future, I hope you will go to the Western Continent to help me find something called Moonlight Divine Jade, if you are lucky enough to get this thing, go to the Lost Forest in the South to find my people......"

Luo Fan couldn't help but think of what Mo Yun had confessed to him before, but he didn't know the grievances in it.

"The temple has suppressed our country for many years, and countless small countries in the vicinity have risen one after another, and even allied with each other to become a great power that is almost no less than ours. If you add those people from the Western Continent who came, the forces of the two sides would be combined......" Han Chen's face was solemn, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried when he thought of this.

Luo Fan was also a little surprised when he heard this, the small countries of the affiliated powers have been oppressed all the year round, and they have to pay tribute every year, which is naturally resentful. Where there is oppression, there will be resistance! If that is the case, the matter will not be easy to solve, and if it is not done, it will be a war with a different face.

"There will always be a way, and now the cultivation sect of the Eastern Continent has risen vigorously. When it really comes to that kind of imminent time, I don't think anyone will sit idly by and watch, after all, they are all in the same vein of the Eastern Continent. What's more, there are countless strong people in our hometown of oriental martial arts, and there are many talented and talented people, how can they be ......"

Han Chen, who Luo Fan said this, was dumbfounded, his solemn face passed by, his eyes rolled, but he didn't mention it anymore, he smiled and said, "Brother Luo, I heard that you are a teacher of the Dragon Soul Academy?"

"yes, what's wrong?" Luo Fan didn't say anything about the two elders of Tianji, and they repeatedly told Luo Fan not to reveal their identities until they had to. Luo Fan scoffed, even if he said it, no one would know about you two old men.

Han Chen looked at Luo Fan, but smiled strangely, and said, "It's nothing, but I heard that there is a Miss Su in your hospital who is both talented and beautiful, not only has excellent qualifications, but also looks like a country and a city......"

Luo Fan was stunned for a while, could it be that he even knew those things? He laughed twice at the moment, and said, "Brother Han really has a long-term vision. ”

At night, the stars are lit and the breeze is light. In the distance, there was the rustle of green bamboo leaves, sinking into the gloomy darkness.

Passing through the bamboo shadows and winding paths, a bluestone main road suddenly appeared in front of me. There were palace maids and guards walking by from time to time, and when they saw Luo Fan, they saluted and avoided it.

Along the way, Luo Fan really felt a little unaccustomed, and even more unreal. Everywhere is the magnificent and majestic city tower. The inner courtyard of the palace is even more magnificent, extravagant and luxurious, and even the walls around it are made of red paint, and the majesty is towering and difficult to climb.

Walking all the way, I don't know how far I went, there are fewer and fewer guards around, and the nearby roads are also a little remote. Luo Fan shook his head helplessly and sighed softly, only to realize that he had lost his way. So I had no choice but to move on, hoping to meet the guards and ask for the way.

There seemed to be a faint chuckle from the depths of the bamboo forest ahead, which was not very clear because there was still some distance. Luo Fan slowed down and gradually approached in that direction. After three more detours, the chuckle suddenly became a little louder, mixed with the sound of water waves.

Gently brushing aside the bamboo leaves, Luo Fan saw the scene in front of him clearly.

In the turquoise pool, the two women laughed and frolicked in the water, sometimes splashing water on each other and causing splashes and then making a sound, the black soft hair had been soaked in water and clinging to the white jade skin, and the beautiful faces of the two women were also with a cheerful smile, and the crystal water droplets sometimes slid down gently.

The slender and fair-skinned figures of the two women suddenly appeared in Luo Fan's eyes, their white figures as white as jade were presented without reservation, but the white bath cloth just covered the towering and proud parts, even so, it was still a little uncontrollable.

This quiet bamboo forest seems to be a place where some royal daughters live and play, and now that the night is dark, the bamboo forest hides Luo Fan's figure, and the two women play and laugh softly with each other, but they don't find that Luo Fan is peeping on the side at the moment.

Luo Fan reluctantly retracted his gaze, smiled bitterly secretly, and said secretly: "I'm a gentleman, I'm a gentleman......"

You must know that this place is the inner courtyard of the palace, and if you accidentally find it, it will be troublesome. Even if Luo Fan is now a popular person around the emperor, he will not escape his guilt, at least for his reputation.

There seemed to be signs of a figure in the distance, even if it was the palace master who was secretly guarding here, Luo Fan retreated quietly, and the bamboo forest drowned his figure.
