Chapter 1045: House Arrest of the Son of Heaven
This morning, Lin Chen had just woken up from his sleep, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Ning Xinran leaning on his chest, one hand gently caressing his body, and his face still had the flush that had not subsided last night.
"Why did you wake up so early?" Lin Chen smiled.
Ning smiled happily, and kept saying with her fingers: "I was scared to wake up, I had a dream, and you disappeared again in the dream." β
"I won't, unless the world is destroyed, I will always be by your side." Lin Chen comforted.
Ning Xinran was moved to hug him tightly, and then said to celebrate his birthday: "Lin Xin doesn't seem to be awake yet, why don't we do it again?" Didn't you say you still want a baby? We're going to work harder......"
"Do I want children, or are you not fed?" Lin Chen smiled evilly.
Ning Xinran's face turned red all of a sudden, and she slapped Lin Chen's chest in disgust: "Who hasn't eaten enough?" You scoundrel, I don't want to think that you are a martial artist, I am still an ordinary person, I don't know how to consider me, and you are not afraid of hurting me! β
After Lin Chen heard this, he laughed: "You are no longer an ordinary person, haven't you noticed?" In fact, you are now a martial artist, and you have the power of a heavy realm. β
"Huh? Are you sure? Ning Xinran was quite surprised, "You did it?" Can you make people warriors? β
Now at this time, the existence of martial artists in society is no longer unfamiliar, and even Ning Xinran knows what martial artists are all about.
It's just that in her impression, if you want to become a martial artist, it is not a simple thing, unless you have amazing talent, otherwise it will require a long penance.
"As long as you are willing to sacrifice a little cultivation, anyone can make people become a martial artist quickly, but for ordinary martial artists, this is very much more than worth the loss, because using one's own cultivation to make people become martial artists will make their strength plummet. Only I'm different, and the cultivation I lost is easy to recover, so don't worry. β
"So that's it? I'll just say why you're not as tired as before when you come back this time......" Ning Xinran suddenly realized.
"Is it exposed? So you were pretending to be tired? Lin Chen said with a smile.
Ning happily snorted at Lin Chen, then got up from the bed and said, "You don't believe me? Hum! Then don't come, get up! β
Seeing that Ning Xinran actually got dressed, Lin Chen immediately went up and carried her back to the bed, Ning Xinran looked disobedient, and the two fought directly on the bed.
It's just that at this moment, the two were interrupted by Sister Liu's knock on the door.
It turned out that someone wanted to ask to see Lin Chen, and the other party also claimed to be from the capital.
As soon as he heard that the other party was from the capital, Lin Chen had no choice but to let Ning Xinran go for the time being, got up and put on his clothes and got up.
Regarding this identity, Lin Chen initially guessed whether it would be a lobbyist sent by Chen Bufan to beg for mercy.
After all, apart from him, it seems that no one in the capital will come over now.
But this time he guessed wrong.
After coming out of the bedroom, Lin Chen soon saw a scarred and ragged figure in his living room.
As soon as he saw Lin Chen, this person pouted, knelt on the ground, and pleaded with Lin Chen: "Lin Shuai! You're not dead! Please Lin Shuai return to Beijing quickly and rescue Your Majesty! β
"Zhou Yang?"
Lin Chen didn't expect that the person in front of him was Zhou Yang, the new commander of the Imperial Forest Army that he had single-handedly promoted.
He asked Zhou Yang to get up, but Zhou Yang couldn't kneel for a long time, and only said in his mouth: "I know that Lin Shuai and his family have not been reunited for a long time and don't want to travel far, but Lin Shuai, the Son of Heaven has been waiting for you in the capital for two years!"
Since being placed under house arrest by Chen Bufan, the Son of Heaven has suffered for two years, and he has persisted until now, in order to hope that one day, Lin Shuai, you can return to Beijing to rescue! β
"You get up and sit down first, and tell me about the situation in the capital." Lin Chen pulled Zhou Yang up and instilled some aura in him to recuperate his injuries.
Zhou Yang's complexion gradually became ruddy, and he also knew that he was in a hurry, so he sat on the sofa and told Lin Chen about the situation in the capital.
Two years ago, when Chen Bufan mutinied and rebelled, because of the Beiluo Seven Star Deterrent left by Lin Chen to Zhao Youzhen, Chen Bufan was so frightened that he did not dare to enter the imperial city again.
But a katana naturally can't make Zhao Youzhen change the situation.
Chen Bufan's coup d'Γ©tat, in the end, except for not taking the imperial city, is already equivalent to success.
After that, Chen Bufan, who had a monopoly on power, although he did not dare to enter the imperial city, sent heavy troops to completely surround the imperial city, and put Zhao Youzhen and the Son of Heaven and his family under house arrest in the palace.
For the control of the imperial city, Chen Bufan's strategy is to allow entry but not exit.
After the Battle of Jiangcheng in the past, after Zhou Yang protected Ning Xinran, he could only return to the capital overnight because he learned of the coup d'Γ©tat in the imperial city.
At that time, he tried to lead the Praetorian Guards to counterattack the Chen family, but he was outnumbered.
In the end, the remnants of the Praetorian Guard retreated into the imperial city and became prisoners like Zhao Youzhen.
In the blink of an eye, they had been trapped in the Imperial City for two years.
During this period, the situation of the people in the imperial city became more and more difficult.
Although there are a large number of materials in the imperial city, in two years, these materials are almost exhausted.
A week before Lin Chen's return, because he noticed that Chen Bufan had left the capital, Zhou Yang rushed out of the imperial city at the risk of death, wanting to find rescue in the outside world.
But it's a pity that in two years, Chen Bufan has turned Yanguo into an iron bucket, and the so-called rescue is hopeless.
At the same time, although Chen Bufan left the capital, he still had a back hand in the capital, and when he found that someone had escaped from the imperial city, the Chen family's pursuers immediately appeared and followed Zhou Yang all the way.
Although Zhou Yang was already a martial artist of the Sevenfold Realm, he was still injured a lot under the siege of those pursuers.
Fortunately, when he was about to be cornered, Zhou Yang heard the rumors of Lin Chen's return, and this is why the two met today.
"Lin Shuai, this is the case, the Son of Heaven doesn't know the news of your return, but he has always believed that you are still alive! I implore Lin Shuai to see your old relationship with the Son of Heaven and go to the capital! β
From Zhou Yang, Lin Chen really understood what happened in the capital in the past, he stood up, and after being silent for a while, he said to Zhou Yang: "I know, you can rest for a while and take a bath, how it is, I will give you an answer in a while." β
"Thank you Lin Shuai!" Zhou Yang nodded gratefully and didn't urge anymore.
Lin Chen called Sister Liu and asked her to prepare a change of clothes for Zhou Yang to take a bath, then got up and walked back towards the bedroom on the second floor.
It was only on the stairs that he saw Ning Xinran standing at the top of the stairs.
Looking at her appearance, it was obvious that she had heard what Zhou Yang said just now.
Just as Lin Chen was hesitating about how to explain to Ning Xinran, he heard the other party say, "Lin Chen, you go to the capital." β
