Chapter 844: The Imperial Family Compromises
In the main hall, the air was as silent as death, and Emperor Tianyan stared blankly at the black shadow lying on the ground half-dead, unable to say a word for a long time.
This person's name is Ghost Shadow, and he is his personal guard hidden in the shadows, and this person's strength has reached the first order of the Emperor Puppet Realm, and even the old man of the Yu family is firmly suppressed.
But at this moment, in front of him, this strong man who was entrusted with the important task of safety by him was lying motionless on the ground like a dead pig, and from the latter's undetectable breath, he could also feel that the latter was obviously seriously injured.
How did he become like this?
Could it be that every qiē was done by Gu Chen?
If this is the case, then wouldn't the latter's strength already surpass the scope of the first order of the Emperor Puppet Realm?
The thoughts in Emperor Tianyan's mind flashed, and his face became more and more difficult to look at. Even though he is the Emperor of Tianyan, he knows very well that in front of the puppeteer, especially in front of the powerful puppeteer, his identity is almost negligible. And once the other party has murderous intentions, it is impossible for him to be alone in this situation.
Thinking of this, Emperor Tianyan finally took a deep breath, tried his best to squeeze out an ugly smile, cautiously walked out from behind the dragon chair, and said softly: "Master Gu, look at this...... Isn't this a big flood that washed the Dragon King Temple, it's all a family, so why bother. ”
"Oh, a family?"
"Haha...... Your Majesty, I can't afford it, besides, weren't you still fighting the idea of Chen Qi's sword just now?" Gu Chen tilted his head and pretended to be surprised. And the appearance of Emperor Tianyan also made the impression of the lord of a country drop a lot in his heart.
Emperor Tianyan was in a cold sweat, and the sweat from the stream flowed down his cheeks, he really didn't know how to answer this question at this moment, and he did say something that he shouldn't have said before.
"Hehe, misunderstanding, misunderstanding, you see that you haven't appeared for so long, and the widow is also afraid that the casting skills of Chen Qijian will be lost, so this is the next step, if Master Gu you don't want to, the widow can let them stop, you see, this is good?"
After holding it for a long time, Emperor Tianyan held back such a reason that was not a reason, of course, he knew that this reason was untenable, and the only thing he hoped for at the moment was that Gu Chen did not really have murderous intentions. Otherwise, he really won't be able to die well today.
But fortunately, when he just said this, Gu Chen didn't make it difficult again, he just nodded thoughtfully, and then changed his words, and said: "Your Majesty, in fact, about the casting method of the Chen Qi sword, I have already had the intention to pass it on to the royal family, but I can't help but pull away, so I missed the time, and since the Royal Foundry Academy has begun to study, let them study it, it's not a big deal." ”
What he said was particularly pertinent, even Emperor Tianyan's eyes lit up after hearing it, and he said in his heart This is really a great thing. It's just that how did he know what Gu Chen really thought in his heart, if he wanted to forge the Chen Qi Sword, not to mention anything else, just smelting Tiangang cold iron was not something that just one person could do, without that Mysterious Flame, smelting such metals was simply a fantasy.
And since he knew that it would be impossible for those wastes of the Royal Foundry to make the Chenqi Sword, Gu Chen was happy to give him enough face, after all, the focus of his visit this time was not on the Chenqi Sword.
"Your Majesty, regarding the matter of Chen Qijian, you can let your subordinates give it a try, and it is an honor to be able to contribute to the empire. ”
Gu Chen said, but when he spoke, he didn't look at Emperor Tianyan at all.
"Actually, when I came this time, I had one thing to ask for, but I don't know if His Majesty can agree. ”
"Something?"
When he first heard this, Emperor Tianyan involuntarily flashed the word Lu Fu in his mind, and now in Tianyan City, what can make characters like Gu Chen ask for each other in person, in addition to Chen Tower, is naturally Lu Mansion.
But even if he knew it, he didn't dare to put it up first, because he didn't know what the bottom line of the former was, and if he wanted to attack the Prime Minister's Mansion, the consequences would also cause a lose-lose outcome.
"I don't know what Master Gu is talking about, if a widow can do it, he will definitely help. Emperor Tianyan straightened his face and said.
Hmph, old fox! Gu Chen said with disdain in his heart. Of course, it was impossible for him to say this, and he still had that trademark gentle smile on his cheeks, "It's not a big deal, it's just that when I returned to the Lu Mansion today, I found that the mansion was no longer what it used to be." ”
"I believe you also know that although I am a caster in Chenlou, I am actually from the Lu Mansion, so I also have deep feelings for the Lu family, but now I see such a scene of the Lu family, in my heart, it is really not a taste. ”
Saying that, Gu Chen's eyes were a little moist, and he looked cold, which really made people sad.
Of course, he is pretending to be sad, in order to complete this play, which is better than directly using force to make Emperor Tianyan defect.
And just as he thought, how could Emperor Tianyan not hear the meaning of his words, when the word Lufu just came out of his mouth, the former already knew it.
But I only know that he only knows that he is also acting, and he naturally has to continue acting. Immediately, I saw that he suddenly looked surprised, glared at Gu Chen in disbelief, and said, "What Master Gu said is all true?
"Oh, look at it, it's all widows who are busy with official business on weekdays, so they don't have everything, and the Lu Mansion is still the home of the owner of the Lu Mansion of Chenlou, and now this kind of thing is happening under the nose of the widow, which is really the fault of the widow. ”
"Master Gu, don't worry, from today onwards, the Lu family in Tianyan City is the clan outside my royal family, and the affairs of the Lu family are the affairs of my royal family. Look, isn't that good?"
"Really?" Gu Chen heard this, pretending to be overjoyed, "That feeling is too good, I knew before I came that with such a grand ambition as His Majesty, he would naturally not go to the Lu family to ignore it." What you said is very happy in the next place, since this is the case, then you see, do you want to find a time to send someone to the Lu family, so as to give them a reassurance?"
"It's nature, it's nature. It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, according to the opinion of the widow, just now. Emperor Tianyan was greatly relieved when he saw him respond, and in order to send Gu Chen away earlier, he did not hesitate to agree to the latter's request.
"Grandpa Zhang...... In. Then he turned and shouted into the apse.
"Your Majesty, the old slave is here. ”
After the shouting, a charming male duck voice also came immediately, and from the apse, a figure trotted all the way to the dragon chair, full of respect.
"Gonggong Zhang, this is Master Gu, wait a minute, you will go to the Lu Mansion with Master Gu, pass on the will of the widow, remember, during the period, Master Gu is the main one, if the Master Gu is a little unhappy, be careful of your head. Emperor Tianyan commanded sharply. After speaking, he also turned around and came to the desk, picked up a pen and wrote.
"Yes, the old slave obeys His Majesty's will. The big eunuch known as Gonggong Zhang replied cautiously, during which he did not forget to glance at Gu Chen a few times, and when he saw that the latter was in this hall with his arms around his chest, without any etiquette to meet the emperor, he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart.
However, how could a shrewd person like him not be able to see the doorway in this, since the ancient master didn't even care about the emperor, then his energy was enough to explain it.
"Okay, take it, let's go to the Lu Mansion with Master Gu. ”
After about a few minutes, Emperor Tianyan put down the ink pen, handed the bright yellow cloth to Gonggong Zhang, and then smiled at Gu Chen before he commanded in a deep voice.
"Yes, the old slave understands. ”
Gonggong Zhang took the holy decree with both hands and walked in front of Gu Chen in a few steps, "Master Gu, please come here." ”
"Well, good. Gu Chen nodded, "Then thank you for your majesty." ”
"Haha, Master Gu is polite, they are all a family, why are you so polite. When Emperor Tianyan heard this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching subconsciously, an emperor like him who was threatened like him was probably the first time in the past.
Immediately, Gu Chen was too lazy to act anymore, turned around and walked out of the hall with the father-in-law. And it was only at this time, when the halls were closed again, that Emperor Tianyan squatted on the ground like a force, and the cold sweat on his head couldn't stop flowing.
Then, he sat quietly for half an hour, his eyes flashed several times in succession, and then, as if he had made up his mind, he turned over from the ground, faced the apse, raised his voice and shouted: "Someone, quickly pass the five princes into the palace." ”
......
The Lu family's mansion.
Today, since Gu Chen went out, Lu Qi and Ren Yao began to send people to clean the mansion thoroughly, and both of them knew in their hearts that with the current strength of the former, it would be easy for the Lu Mansion to regain its glory, and what they needed to do was to prepare in advance for the good things that were coming.
It's just that the heavens don't fulfill people's wishes, and the actions of the Lu Mansion naturally fall in the eyes of the people who were placed outside the Lu Mansion to monitor the Prime Minister's Mansion, and when those people saw that the closed gate of the Lu Mansion was reopened, and the subordinates also began to clean the courtyard, they quickly reported the news.
And less than an hour later, the people of the Prime Minister's Mansion rushed to the Lu Mansion, and as soon as they arrived here, in front of the gate of this mansion, they confronted Lu Qi's side.
"Tsk, Miss Lu San, I'm in a good mood today, why are you willing to clean your kennel? Click, it's not that I'm talking about you, and you don't know what the young master thinks about you, as long as you obey me and be my aunt in the fourth room, what do you want, why are you still guarding such a shabby place to live and suffer." ”
On the side of the Prime Minister's Mansion, in the middle of the guards, a man with a pale face was sitting upright on a tall horse. This person is Yu Feng, the only son of Prime Minister Yu, and in front of Gu Chen, he suffered a lot.
It's just that because of that incident, he can be regarded as the first person who is famous among the younger generation of Tianyan City and can make Chenlou helpless.
"Hee-hee...... Yu Feng's son, the slave family advises you to control your mouth, otherwise you don't know if you are cut off one day. ”
Hearing this, Lu Qiqi's face turned pale, and just as she was about to return the favor, Ren Yao suddenly raised her eyebrows and smiled coldly. And his smile also made Yu Feng's back snort. ??
