Chapter Fifty-Eight: Silent Calculation
Above the main hall, Chu Jinchao said: "It's very simple, you just need to hand over the old man and child you captured to me, and then hand over half of the heavenly and earthly treasures in your treasure house to me." β
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Ke glared angrily and shouted angrily: "No! The old man and the child are good to say, if you still want the natural treasures inside, and you want half of them, if it is one or two pieces, then I may be able to accept it, you want half, this is absolutely impossible!"
As soon as these words came out, even Chu Yun and Chu Yuzuo next to him were a little surprised, and said secretly: "Why does he want so many heavenly and earthly treasures by himself, is it difficult to ............?"
Chu Jinchao smiled coldly, and then lowered the sheepskin roll in his hand downward, so frightened that Zhou Ke hurriedly stopped him and said, "Wait a minute." β
Chu Jinchao sneered at Zhou Ke, took the parchment roll off the lamp, and then grabbed the parchment roll with his left hand, quietly waiting for his decision.
Seeing that the parchment roll was taken off the lamp, Zhou Ke breathed a sigh of relief, and he glanced at Chu Yun.
After perceiving Zhou Ke's eyes, Chu Yun walked to Zhou Ke's side, and the two turned their backs to Chu Jinchao, not knowing what to mutter.
The cold wind was howling, the snowflakes were fluttering, and on the snow leading to the main hall of Mingxuan Pavilion, there were two faint footprints, and it was obvious that these were the footprints of two people.
The camera was turning back to the main hall, Chu Jinchao had been standing by the light for a long time, seeing that they had not yet talked and were still discussing.
Chu Jinchao turned his head to look at the snow outside, and said secretly: "This snow is getting heavier and heavier." β
Just as Chu Jinchao wanted to urge the two of them, the two of them suddenly turned their heads.
Zhou Ke smiled faintly, laughing very disgustingly, after Chu Jinchao saw it, he swallowed his saliva violently, and he spoke: "Young Master Chu, after I discussed with the throne, I decided to agree to your request. β
As soon as these words came out, if he were an ordinary person, he would definitely agree immediately, but unfortunately, Chu Jinchao was not an ordinary person, his eyes narrowed into a slit for a day, leaving only a gap, staring at Chu Yun, and then sneered: "Tell me about your conditions, I don't believe that Zhou Ke, who is a doctor of imperial history, will be willing to let me take advantage of such a big advantage." β
"Okay!" Zhou Ke shouted, and then said: "Sure enough, he is worthy of the person who even praises the throne, since your son speaks like this, then this seat will not go around the corner, as long as you promise to work under my hands for half a year, I will not only give you all the heavenly and earthly treasures in my family's treasury, but even the heavenly and earthly treasures in the dynasty's treasury, I will also give you them, how about it?"
Chu Jinchao smiled coldly, if he was a different person, he would definitely agree immediately when he heard this condition, but it was really a pity, Chu Jinchao saw through his plan at a glance, and said: "It seems that Lord Zhou's ambitions are great and his ambitions are not small, how can there be a throne to assist you, what else do you need me for, I am a small person in the rivers and lakes, and I am also a disabled person, so I am not afraid that I will rob you of your position?
Chu Yun shook his head slowly, the paper fan crackled and unfolded in this winter, and it was also fanned again and again, and said: "Chu Gongzi is too worried, although Gongzi is disabled, but his mind is my generation and others, far beyond reach, Gongzi's cultivation is superb, far more than me and others, his mind is sharp, his body is agile, and the battle last night is enough to prove this." β
After Chu Yun fanned himself, he said: "Last night, Chu Gongzi first devised a plan to make the poisonous scorpion and others mistakenly think that you were poisoned, and asked him to take you to one of our strongholds. β
Facing what Chu Yun said, Chu Jinchao just smiled faintly and did not speak. Listen quietly to what he is saying.
Zhou Ke on the side nodded from time to time, and did not interfere with Chu Yuzao's words, but was still smiling on the side, as if he had already said it, and the cooperation between the two was so flawless.
"At that time, Gongzi must have wanted to find out the truth first, and then waited for an opportunity to rescue those two, but Gongzi unexpectedly and prematurely held Lord Zhou hostage, and after being victimized, with the power of one person, he exterminated three martial kings, ten martial artists, and a hundred elite crossbowmen, this record is not worthy of anyone else, so I, Chu Jinchao, implore Prince Chu Yun to assist Lord Zhou together and make contributions together!" Chu Yun said.
After finishing speaking, he clenched his hands into fists, bent over, and said in a very sincere tone.
Chu Jinchao testified, he doubted that the person in front of him was really Chu Yun?
In his impression, Chu Yun was arrogant, except for his father, he looked down on anyone, looked down on anyone, except for the respect that the elders would bend over, he never bent over anyone.
Now, Chu Yun is bending over to himself, and his attitude is very sincere, so that Chu Jinchao can't believe that the current Chu Yun is still the same Chu Yun as before.
That's a big change.
But last night, what Zhou Ke did, he remembered vividly, threatening others, forcing something, and having a split personality.
"Uh......... Lord Zhou and Chu Yuzuo are so sincere, I am very moved in my heart, but I am not used to being bound by people, or that sentence, this young man can't work for adults, and please hand over those two people to me quickly, give me half of the treasure of heaven and earth, and hand over the strange fire map to you immediately. Chu Jinchao said lightly.
As soon as the voice fell, Chu Jin threw his left hand and threw the Qihuo diagram towards Zhou Ke.
Zhou Ke's eyes were shining, and he leaned up on his thick neck, like a fat wolf who was about to die of hunger, and suddenly saw a piece of fatty meat.
Both hands hurriedly grabbed the sheepskin scroll engraved with the strange fire diagram, and then shouted: "Someone is coming!"
"In!"
"Give this thing to the money man to confirm whether it is true or not. Zhou Kedao.
"Yes!"
...............
A subordinate came to Zhou Ke's face, knelt down on one knee, clasped his fists with both hands and said, "Lord Qiyu, the Qian people have confirmed that this scroll is real." β
Chu Jinchao smiled faintly: "My lord, can you give me those two people?"
A strange smile rose at the corner of Zhou Ke's mouth, and he smiled coldly: "Young Master Chu, Young Master Chu, should I say that you are too naΓ―ve, or should I still say that you are too naΓ―ve." β
After finishing speaking, Zhou Ke began to look up to the sky and laugh: "Do you think that the strange fire map is in my hands, you still want the treasure of heaven and earth, and you still want those two people!"
Chu Yun on the side also smiled faintly and did not open his mouth.
Originally, the plot should have gone in the direction that Zhou Ke wanted, but he didn't expect that Chu Jinchao would look up to the sky and laugh instead: "Hahahaha!!"
The maid on the side was indifferent, only Zhou Ke looked at Chu Jinchao in confusion and said, "Why are you laughing?"
After hearing Zhou Ke finish speaking, Chu Jinchao's laughter became smaller and smaller, and he just started to speak, but he laughed again.
Although Chu Yun was a little puzzled, he didn't show it on his face anymore, and said with a smile: "Why is Young Master Chu laughing?"
Chu Jinchao said with a smile: "I laugh at you Zhou Ke is innocent, you are still ranked as the third prince, supervising the hundred officials, I am really curious, how did you do it for so long, how did you do it." β
After hearing Chu Jinchao's words, Zhou Ke said angrily: "You ............"
Without waiting for Zhou Ke to finish the fire, Chu Jinchao continued: "You must know that the strange fire map you got is a real strange fire map?"
As soon as the voice fell, a subordinate came to Zhou Ke and said, "Lord Qiqi, outside the main hall, Senior Zhou came to visit." β
The shock in Zhou Ke's eyes flashed, and he said secretly: "Why don't you come early, don't come late, but come at this time." β
At this time, Chu Yuzao Chu Yun walked to Zhou Ke's side and said quietly: "Senior Zhou is here, all plans will be disrupted, Qihuo is what every martial artist dreams of, if he knows that we have the news of Qihuo Diagram, he will definitely have a rebellious heart." β
Zhou Ke said softly: "No, Senior Zhou had a deep friendship with his deceased father, and he should have hugged me when he was a child, I will also call him Uncle Zhou, he will never do such a thing." β
Chu Yun said coldly: "No way, sir, I heard you right, you are on top of the government and the opposition, climbing up step by step from the bottom, my lord, you still believe in human feelings? There are not a few people who destroy relatives and devour their fathers, if you let him know that the strange fire map is in your hands, he wants a secular imperial doctor." Or is it a strange fire that can help him improve his cultivation strength, if you are an adult, you are in his point of view, how do you choose?"
Chu Jinchao smiled coldly behind them: "What's the matter, my lord, you and Chu Yuzuo continue to chat, anyway, I don't have anything to do, I have a lot of time, even if you talk for a day and a night, I can wait." β
Hearing this, Zhou Ke suddenly said: "Throne, you are right, if it is my choice, I will definitely choose the Strange Fire Diagram, or the throne, you see, we are like this and this, and we will be like this and this later." β
Chu Yun said: "The idea of the adult is very good, I think it will be like this in the future............"
After a long silence, the two finally turned their heads.
Zhou Ke said lightly: "You go and invite Senior Zhou in, and set up another table banquet under the main seat." β
Zhou Ke said: "Young Master Chu, please come with me, I will take you to meet those two people, and by the way, I will give you the treasures of heaven and earth." β
Chu Jinchao sneered, compared his left hand, and said, "Please put ~ my lord." β
Zhou Ke nodded, and said to a maid: "Wait a minute, if Senior Zhou comes, it will be said that my stomach is uncomfortable, so it is convenient to go." β
The maid said, "Got it." β
When Chu Jinchao walked to Chu Yun's side, he paused and said, "How is the family?"
Chu Yun nodded and said, "Dominate the Night Phoenix." β
"Breaking the sky, my sister, father, grandfather?"
"Potian and your sister left home to practice, uncle took care of family affairs, grandpa went to the mountains and rivers, everything is fine. Chu Yun said.
"You've matured. Chu Jinchao said.
"You've grown. Chu Yun said.
The two smiled and looked at each other before leaving.
