Chapter 348: Reluctantly Invited
Su Qin broke the layer of window paper between him and Su Meng'er, the former brother and sister have naturally become a pair of glue-like lovers, plus a Xiaobai who is inserted from time to time, and the days are very happy.
However, it is impossible for Su Qin to continue like this forever.
Not to mention the establishment of Tianqin Fort, there is also a confidant Su Mutian waiting for him to find, although he has not collected enough information at the moment, and it is tantamount to looking for a needle in the sea rashly, but the matter is not something that can be left behind by him.
"Brother Su Qin, that ...... Well...... Sister Ying'er, she sent someone over and wanted to ask me to be a guest at Ling's house, do you think I should go over?"
Su Meng'er came to Su Qin early in the morning, said hello briefly, and then talked about it.
"You're talking about...... Ling Ying?"
Su Qin was stunned.
Although the result of the fight that day was that Ling Ying took the initiative to admit defeat, he always felt that the other party was not willing to give up.
To be honest, Ling Ying originally lost to him, but she refused to admit defeat, so she fought with Su Meng'er again.
Therefore, it is an indisputable fact that Su Qin defeated Ling Ying, unless the latter naturally does not like to fight, it is impossible to expose the matter lightly.
"Well, that's her. She said that it was rare to see someone like me among women of the same age, so she wanted to get closer to me, chat with each other, and get acquainted with her. ”
Su Meng'er's words relayed by the Ling family were said to Su Qin as they were, and she looked so well-behaved that people were pitiful.
"Uh...... Do you think you'd like to see her?"
Su Qin couldn't guess what medicine was sold in Ling Ying's gourd, and insisted that it would not be good to let her go, so she could only ask what she meant.
"People can't say it's good, that's why I came to ask Brother Su Qin about you. ”
Su Meng'er pouted slightly, and seemed to be a little dissatisfied with Su Qin's failure to directly help her make a decision.
"I can't say this kind of thing, or you just go and ease the relationship, after all, the Ling family and we are not hostile, so why make a fuss. ”
Of course, Su Qin didn't believe that Ling Ying's move was to ease the relationship between the two families.
However, he didn't want to say too much about Su Meng'er, so as not to disturb the latter's innocent and immaculate heart, and if there was any problem, it was better for him to deal with it himself.
"Oh, then I'll go. People haven't been here for the past two days, Brother Su Qin, don't miss me too much. ”
Su Meng'er smiled coquettishly, suddenly stretched out her head, and her cherry lips quickly pecked on Su Qin's cheek, leaving a faint lip print, and then turned around and flew out of the courtyard gate, leaving only a trace of virgin fragrance in the courtyard.
Su Qin didn't expect her to leave so simply, the two of them have been Meng Bujiao and Jiao Meng for the past few days, and they were a little uncomfortable when they were separated by chance.
"Hey, I don't seem to have lost my ambition all of a sudden, just thinking about being close to Meng'er, but I don't look like a man. ”
He muttered to himself, but he didn't realize that he was only eighteen years old, and he was new to love, how could he not indulge in it.
Su Meng'er temporarily left his side, which was actually a good thing, as it could give him time to think about other things, so as not to waste time in this mansion.
"The reconstruction of the fortress has begun, with my father and eldest brother here, as well as the manpower and materials provided by several forces, I don't need to worry about anything for the time being. Why don't I enter the palace now, discuss it with the lord of the country, and take Xiaobai to pursue Su Mutian's whereabouts. ”
He thought about it for a moment and decided to go to Chennan now.
Diao Mad had already told him about the origin of the Absolute Being, there was such a more powerful hidden danger hiding beside Su Mutian, he had to make more preparations, and the Cang Flame Beast naturally became an extremely powerful helper.
It's just that although the Cangyan Beast has been sticking to his side recently, and has never returned to the palace, this situation is okay when he is not far from Cangyan City, if he wants to leave, and he still takes the former with him, he has to say hello to Chen Nan.
However, maybe even Su Qin himself didn't realize that he didn't go to Tianqin Fort to take a look at it at all, not only because he was relieved about the rebuilding of the fortress, but because he was afraid that he would face Xia Qianping and Su Yuexi and not be able to handle the complicated emotional relationship.
Even he took the initiative to choose to take a closer relationship with Su Meng'er, but he was not forced out, although the relationship between the two was already there, but if there was no incident on the day of the fight, maybe this day would have to wait for two more years.
Of course, if it really takes another two years, maybe Su Qin will be able to face these many feelings calmly, and will not make an evasive move to Xia Qianping and Su Yuexi, but so far he can't do it, so he will choose to enter the palace directly.
......
"Your Majesty, the second prince. ”
After Su Qin entered the palace, he quickly asked where Chen Nan was, but he was in Chen Ran's bedroom, so after he arrived, he naturally greeted the two of them.
"Su Qin, you're here, come to the palace to see me, but is there anything going on in Tianqin Castle?"
Chen Nan has long regarded him as a character who can be treated equally, so naturally he has something to say.
"It's not over there, I want to discuss something else with you, I don't know if it's bothering?"
Su Qin also said hello only to realize that Chen Ran's expression was a little solemn, and he just smiled and nodded reluctantly at his arrival, as if he was talking to Chen Nan about something important just now.
This time, it is difficult for him to explain his intention directly, and he must let the father and son finish their words first.
"It's okay, we're talking about something that will take a few days to settle, so let's talk about yours first. ”
Chen Nan waved his hand, but his tone couldn't help but reveal a little sorrow.
Although Su Qin had the heart to put his words down again, since Chen Nandu had said so, it would be even worse for him to delay the time.
So he quickly clarified the meaning in a few words, and declared that he was also forced to bring the Flame Beast with him, and he did not mean to take the beast of Zhenguo as his own.
"It's okay, if you want to take it away, take it away, I actually want to open it, the royal family doesn't necessarily need to have the Cang Flame Beast to protect it, our Chen family can rely on itself to keep the ancestral inheritance, always rely on the Cang Flame Beast, it is difficult to ensure that there will not be a big chaos like before. ”
Chen Nan waved his hand and responded to Su Qin's request very open-mindedly, it seemed that he really figured out some things, and he was not obsessed with leaving the Cang Flame Beast behind.
Although Su Qin expected that his words would not be rejected before he came, he didn't expect Chen Nan to be so generous, and it seemed that he would not care about the Flame Beast from now on, that is, the Flame Beast was likely to become a force that belonged to Su Qin or the Tianqin clan alone, and this kind of situation where the lord was weak and the minister was strong was not something that the ordinary lord of a country could accept.
Therefore, Su Qin hesitated when he heard this, but he didn't know what to say, so he had to thank him twice before turning around and leaving.
But before he could take a step, he heard Chen Nan suddenly stop him again: "Su Qin, I have a reluctant request, it is related to my son Chen Ran, and I hope you can agree." ”
"Reluctantly?"
Su Qin immediately stopped castration and asked suspiciously.
"Ahem, this is a long story, and it has something to do with what I just discussed with Ran'er. ”
Chen Nan cleared his throat, revealing a slightly embarrassed look, but quickly suppressed this feeling, and continued: "I think you have also seen it, although my Chen family is the royal family of Cangyan, but the people are really thin, the two generations add up to only three people, and now that my eldest son is dead, there are only me and Ran'er left, which is very different from the situation of the three major clans Ding Xing, do you know why?"
He took the initiative to mention this problem, Su Qin had thought about it before, but Su Qin had also heard that it seemed that it was because the ancestors of the Ouyang family had manipulated the bloodline of the Chen family, so he had never asked Chen Nan or Chen Ran in person.
But now that I heard Chen Nan say this, it seems that the situation is not the same, even if the bloodline is affected, there should be other reasons.
Chen Nan asked him if he really wanted him to answer anything, his tone paused slightly, and then he said: "The real reason for this is actually because my Chen family once had an agreement with a sect, and they often provide us with some necessary precious things, and my Chen family wants to send young children of each generation over to enter the sect to be cultivated, and after a few years of cultivation, the worst one will come back to inherit the position of the lord of the country, and the rest will stay in the sect from now on, and they will no longer be satisfied with the Cangyan country." ”
Unexpectedly, he actually told such a secret story, which was something that even the three major clans had never heard of, and even Xia Chun knew a little bit at most.
And if this is true, it means that Chen Nan, who is the first person in the Cangyan Country, is actually the worst in his generation, otherwise it is impossible to be the lord of the country.
But if that's the case, Chen Nan used to like the eldest prince Chen Huan in the past, and didn't value Chen Ran very much, but the pair of twin brothers who were not small in their cultivation were not small, so what happened?
Could it be that from the beginning, Chen Nan never thought of letting Chen Huan take his place, but wanted to send him to that sect and Chen Ran to inherit the throne?
Su Qin couldn't think through these things for a while, and his feelings couldn't help but react on his face.
Chen Nan swept his eyes, and he already understood his thoughts, and immediately said: "However, there is a special case in this agreement, that is, if only two people are born in a certain generation, only one can be sent over, and the remaining one can be left to directly serve as the lord of the country." After all, it is not an absolutely safe place in that sect, and every year the disciples in the sect go out to practice, and it is inevitable that there will be deaths and injuries. Wouldn't it be nice if you sent both of them over, only to end up dead. ”
This explanation immediately solved Su Qin's doubts, but it was unknown who was originally going to be sent between Chen Huan and Chen Ran.
"Then what if there is only one person? For example, in this situation, Brother Chen Ran doesn't have to go to that sect again, right?"
Su Qin knew that if he followed this reason, Chen Nan shouldn't have been worried just now, so there must have been some changes in things.
"No, Ran'er he's going," Chen Nan shook his head, "Because it's his own request!"
