Chapter 184: Lu Chen's Wooing

Hearing Chu Xiong's words, Lu Chen thought about it, his grandfather's consideration was not unreasonable.

This kind of powerful weapon was handed over to his mother to bring out, which proved that Xuanyue Palace was probably not afraid of this weapon going to the people.

Like Barrett in his hand, as well as the Desert Eagle, he didn't dare to use it for others, for fear that others would accidentally lose it for him and he wouldn't be able to get it back.

Thinking about it this way, it was a right choice for Chu Xiong to let his mother send that terrifying weapon back.

Such a terrifying weapon left in the Chu family will inevitably attract the covetousness of many forces in the rivers and lakes, and even the one in the capital will be worried that the Chu family will be the target of everyone at that time, and it will be a matter of time before the Chu family is destroyed.

It's just that if you do this, there will definitely be some people within the Chu family who are dissatisfied.

In the eyes of some people, as long as they obtained such a powerful weapon, they would become even stronger, but as a result, Chu Xiong not only did not keep this weapon, but instead sent this weapon back to Xuanyue Palace, making the Chu family miss the opportunity to become stronger.

At this time, Lu Chen said, "Grandpa, I still have a question, how did my mother die back then?" ”

Lu Chen asked Jinyiwei to investigate a lot of things about his mother, and probably knew that his mother's death was likely to be related to his father, but how she died, whether she was poisoned or killed, this Jinyiwei did not find out.

All he knew was that when he got up one morning, the palace maids in the courtyard where he was were crying, and then his mother in this world was gone.

Chu Xiong replied: "I don't know about your mother's death, but it is most likely related to your father." ”

Speaking of this, Chu Xiong stopped talking, he looked at Lu Chen's reaction, he wanted to know what Lu Chen thought.

If Lu Chen was really Emperor Xia's pawn, after hearing his words, Lu Chen would definitely be dissatisfied with himself.

Because Emperor Xia wants Lu Chen to be a chess piece, he will inevitably have a good relationship with Lu Chen secretly, so Lu Chen will inevitably defend his father after hearing that his father emperor is being slandered.

However, Chu Xiong found that Lu Chen didn't seem to care at all about what he just said.

Lu Chen said at this time: "I also know that it has something to do with my father, but I want to know some details of this matter. ”

Chu Xiong said: "Lord Wang, the past has passed, and your mother should not want you to be trapped in the events of the year under Jiuquan." ”

"Now that you are the head of a country, you should look forward."

Lu Chen said: "This is also true. ”

Speaking of this, Lu Chen asked with a smile: "Grandpa came to Beijun this time, how long do you plan to stay in Beijun, or I will send my grandfather a house, how about grandpa will retire in Beijun in the future?" Anyway, the Chu family has also deprived you of the position of head of the family, and there is no need for the Chu family to go back. ”

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Chu Xiong understood that Lu Chen was planning to recruit himself, Chu Xiong really wanted to stay in Beijun for a while, but it was only for a while, and he still had to go back.

Chu Xiong then said: "I came to Beijun this time, mainly to see you, and then stay for a month or two and then go back to the Chu family, although I am not the head of the Chu family, but I am still the Chu family after all, the Chu family is in trouble, and I can't stand idly by." ”

Hearing Chu Xiong's answer, Lu Chen's brows furrowed slightly, it seemed that his grandfather was still on the side of the family, which conflicted with his attitude towards the family.

After all, his grandfather is a family member, and he is the same kind of person as Emperor Xia, and their positions are opposite.

Lu Chen then said: "Grandpa, you should know very well what the situation of the Chu family is now, if you return to the Chu family, I am afraid that you will be eliminated by my father like the Chu family, why are you suffering." ”

Chu Xiong didn't respond to Lu Chen's words, but said, "Lord Wang, I want to ask you a question. ”

Lu Chen said: "You say. ”

Chu Xiong then asked directly: "In the eyes of the family, the 50,000 heavy cavalry of Beijun is the private soldier of the Xia Emperor, and you are the pawn of the Xia Emperor, so I want to know if the truth is the case?" ”

Lu Chen didn't beat around the bush, and replied directly: "Grandpa, please rest assured, I am not my father's pawn, as for how the 50,000 heavy cavalry came from, I can't tell you this for the time being, I can only tell you that there is a very mysterious and powerful force behind me, and even Xuanyue Palace can only be regarded as a small role in front of this force." ”

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Chu Xiong was stunned for a moment.

Is there another powerful force behind his grandson?

This......

Really?

But judging by the tone and demeanor of his grandson, he doesn't seem to be lying.

Could it be that there is really another mysterious force behind him?

But I'm afraid there aren't many forces in this world that are more powerful than Xuanyue Palace, right?

Lu Chen actually said that Xuanyue Palace was just a small role in front of the mysterious force behind him?

After Chu Xiong came back to his senses, he asked with certainty, "The prince didn't lie to me?" ”

Lu Chen said: "This is natural, it is simply impossible for my father to build 50,000 sets of heavy armor under the nose of the family, and the family clan will actually think that the 50,000 heavy cavalry in Beijun is my father's private soldiers." ”

Hearing Lu Chen say this, Chu Xiong thought about it for a while and felt that it made sense.

Now the entire Great Xia is under the control of the family, and now the Xia Emperor has only one military power in his hands, whether it is the court or the economy of Great Xia, it is basically under the control of the family.

If Emperor Xia wanted to build heavy armor, they couldn't have no news at all, and this was still 50,000 sets, not 500 sets.

There may be a possibility that 500 sets may be hidden, but once the number is 10,000, it is impossible that there will be no signs at all.

And building 50,000 sets of heavy armor is not an overnight thing, under the supervision of the family, the news that Emperor Xia built 50,000 sets of heavy armor has not leaked out at all, which is obviously a bit unreasonable.

Chu Xiong frowned at this time, and then he said: "Lord Wang, that mysterious force gave you 50,000 heavy cavalry at once, I'm afraid it has ulterior motives." ”

There are only 20,000 heavy cavalry in the entire Great Xia, and as a result, that mysterious force is so good to a nominal waste prince, and it is 50,000 heavy cavalry as soon as it is shot.

Lu Chen said lightly: "Grandpa, there are some things I can't talk to you about, but you can rest assured that this mysterious force has no intentions for me, at least not for now, and I have absolute control over this mysterious force." ”

Hearing Lu Chen say this, Chu Xiong was stunned again.

Does his grandson have absolute control over that mysterious force?

Really?

That's a huge force that can come up with 50,000 heavy cavalry!

If Lu Chen had absolute control over that mysterious force, wouldn't that mean that he himself was an important figure in this force?

But Lu Chen is only seventeen years old this year, right?

In just over ten years, how did he secretly get on the line with such a huge force?

Chu Xiong couldn't believe it.

But he also felt that Lu Chen really didn't mean to lie to himself.

He is no longer the head of the Chu family, and he has nothing to deceive.

Lu Chen continued at this time: "Grandpa, I heard that there are still a large number of people in the Chu family who actually support you, or you should let those people come to the northern country as well." ”

"I have a hunch that once the war between Great Xia and Great Wu ends, the civil war in Great Xia will inevitably break out, and my father can endure it for so many years, mainly because he has no military power in his hands, and now he has military power in his hands, and in addition to the fact that the family secretly provoked a war this time, there is a high probability that he has angered him, I am afraid he can no longer bear it."

The split Chu family is no threat to Lu Chen, and once the Chu family comes to the northern country, Lu Chen will be able to marry Chu Yuqin and Chu Qingli justifiably in the future.

Chu Yuqin and Chu Qingli are clearly members of the Chu family, as for Chu Yuqin's marriage to the Wang family back then, as long as Chu Xiong publicly abolishes the marriage between Chu Yuqin and the Wang family, as for whether the Wang family recognizes it or not, it has nothing to do with the Wang family, Chu Yuqin didn't even see what the man he was going to marry looked like, how could such a marriage be counted.

As long as Chu Xiong brings another Chu family out, that marriage is not abolished casually, and Chu Yuqin and Chu Qingli are both Chu Xiong's righteous daughters in name.

After hearing Lu Chen's words, Chu Xiong thought for a while, and then said, "Lord Wang, let me think about it again, and I'll give you an answer in half a month." ”

Chu Xiong's heart was a little shaken, he actually didn't really want to clash head-on with Emperor Xia, once the civil war broke out, it would not be good for the Chu family or Great Xia.

Most of those who supported his faction did not support provoking war at first, but his two brothers still secretly provoked the war between Dawu and Daxia.

Chu Xiong even felt that they didn't just want to provoke a war between Great Wu and Great Xia, their real purpose was to force Emperor Xia to abdicate.

Follow the Wang family to mess around, and sooner or later it will be over.

However, Chu Xiong couldn't fully believe in his grandson, he wanted to take a look at the situation in the northern kingdom again, if the northern kingdom had no potential, then their Chu family might as well move to Dawu, or Dayue.

Anyway, it's better than in Great Xia.

As soon as he thought of this, Chu Xiong's emotions became complicated, when did his thoughts become the same as his unfilial son.

That's what his son thought at the beginning, if a civil war broke out in Great Xia, he would directly take Chu Yuqin to Dawu or other dynasties.

As a result, now he also has the idea of escaping from Great Xia.

Seeing that Chu Xiong was tempted, Lu Chen said with a smile: "No problem, when does grandpa want to settle down in the northern country, you can tell me at any time, the gate of the northern country will always be open to the outside world." ”
