Chapter 5 Guardianship of the Heart
Nice people, distant, polite!
Chu Yun's heart was still moved after all, and said: "The old lady and the two elders are even more elders, such a big gift, Chu Yun can't afford it, old lady, please get up quickly!"
Whether it is true or deliberate, it is much better than others, he Chu Yun is just a waste prince, and it is already very embarrassing to let Russell treat him like this, what else?
Russell laughed and said, "Prince, please!"
"Old lady, please!"
The two walked side by side, and then Shuang'er walked into the Taishi Mansion.
At the gate, the eyes of the guards changed, and they were naturally curious, as a prince, why did they treat a waste prince so politely, is it just because they don't want to tell the truth?
"Prince, please take a seat, come here, serve tea!"
All the etiquette is impeccable, and it is not easy to achieve this level in terms of the actual identities of both parties.
Chu Yun thanked him, and then said directly: "Old lady, this time I came to visit, Chu Yun actually has something to say in his heart, I don't know if the old lady, is he willing to give this time?"
On the way here, he had already thought about it a lot, and after thinking about it, Chu Yun still decided to get straight to the point, not to hide it, and to be above board, so as not to waste the time and energy of both parties, and finally end up unpleasant.
When Russell heard this, he smiled indifferently: "The old man knows that you came here specially, it will not be just a simple visit, but you can confess so frankly, which is beyond the expectations of the old man, and besides, does the old man know that the old man has been waiting for several years on this day." ”
Chu Yun's eyes flashed, and he could see that there were some things that there was still no way to avoid after all, but it was okay to do this, and it was better to be honest than to be remembered.
After a moment of silence, Chu Yun spoke up: "Since the old lady understands everything in his heart, then, please ask the old lady to make her words clearer." ”
Russell smiled and said: "Your intention, the old man knows in his heart, the old man can promise you, from today onwards, this Taishi Mansion can become a supporter of Qianlong Palace, and protect each other, no matter who the enemy is, everything, there is Taishi Mansion to deal with." ”
This is what Chu Yun wants, with the Taishi Mansion as a backer, giving him enough time to grow.
But, it will require him to pay enough price!
The so-called good people, in this regard, will not be ambiguous at all, in fact, how can the big people in the court of the Chu Dynasty, the three dukes, generals, princes, etc., be good people in the ordinary sense?
Chu Yun waited quietly, and Russell did not hide it, and said straight to the point: "What the prince has to do is to hand over the map of thousands of miles of mountains and rivers left by the late queen to the old man." ”
And sure enough, it was!
The laughter in his heart fell, and Chu Yun said, "Does the old lady know that this is the only relic left to Chu Yun by the queen mother?"
"Naturally!"
Russell said: "Therefore, the only relic of the queen is of course very important to you, but compared with life, which is more important? ”
"Today, the prince is alive and well, it can be said to be luck, however, the same luck, can it be maintained on the prince's body? ”
Chu Yun laughed silently: "If I don't agree to the old lady's conditions, then there will be strangers between the Taishi Mansion and the Qianlong Palace, and my life or death, the safety of the Qianlong Palace, has nothing to do with the Taishi Mansion, yes or no?"
"That's good! So, please think about it. ”
Russell didn't have the slightest ambiguity, and for him, there was no need for any cover-up, there was no need for that, today, it wasn't him begging for someone.
Chu Yun exhaled lightly, then slowly got up, and said: "After the death of the queen mother, today, it is the first time for Chu Yun to be courteous, and it is the first time to have a cup of hot tea to drink, even if these are the old lady's intentions, Chu Yun is still grateful and will remember it in his heart." ”
"Chu Yun farewell, take care of the old lady!"
Even if Russell was old and refined, he couldn't help but look a little sluggish, because he never thought that Chu Yun would make such a choice, or rather, he didn't expect Chu Yun's decision to come so decisively, without even the slightest consideration.
This alone has made Russell see that the prince in his eyes has changed.
"Prince, the old man knows that this is difficult for some strong people, but in this world, what is more important than life?
When Chu Yun heard this, he glanced at Shuang'er, and a smile appeared in his eyes.
More important than life is a guardian!
If he ignored Shuang'er's humiliation today, he would not need to leave the palace to come to the Taishi Mansion at all, he could be safe and secure, hiding in the Qianlong Palace to cultivate, until he had a certain amount of self-protection power, ignoring all threats in the open and in the dark.
However, that kind of life is too cold, and it is cruel to say that it will never recover, but it is not as ruthless as the human heart.
The word affection, although it is not valuable, the existing affection does not allow Chu Yun to let go.
Therefore, his mother's relics, this is also what Chu Yun needs to protect.
Maybe in the eyes of others, this is very stupid, exchanging a relic for the peace of this life, this is too good a deal, but if today, Chu Yun accepts this condition, he himself understands in his heart that living in this world will no longer make any sense to him.
The guardian in my heart, dare not forget, and cannot forget!
Seeing that Chu Yun had never listened, Russell said again: "Prince, a good man, do something and don't do something, you should know how to make trade-offs, everything, there is a give-and-give to get it!"
Chu Yun looked around and said, "Old Master, if you want to exchange the lives of everyone in the entire Taishi Mansion for your own safety, are you willing to exchange it?"
Russell's eyes were stunned, and when he looked at Chu Yun again, he could clearly perceive that the young man in his eyes was really a completely different person compared to before.
"Old lady, that's all you say, farewell!"
Seeing Chu Yun and the others leave, until they disappeared from his eyes, Russell waved his hand violently.
In the hall, a person appeared out of thin air.
"Let's find out what has happened in the past few months, especially after the prince woke up. ”
It is by no means unusual for a person to suddenly become a little unrecognizable, and even seem to have changed drastically, Russell is not an ordinary person, and he will never be careless in this regard.
"Back to the Taishi, not long ago, news came out in the palace that Chen Zhi, the eunuch of the four-layer Qi Realm, was killed, and many people saw with their own eyes that he died at the hands of the prince. ”
When Russell heard this, his pupils tightened suddenly, such a eunuch was killed, it was really nothing, the four-layer Qi Realm, in front of him, was like an ant, but he died in the hands of Chu Yun, which was too shocking.
It was only a moment for Russell to understand in his heart, and his smile appeared: "It turns out that this is the real reason why the prince came to visit today. ”
"Able to kill the fourth-layer Qi Realm, Prince, are you a hidden dragon in the abyss?"
"So!"
Russell's eyes flashed with brilliance: "Prince, the old man will give you a chance, but I want to see if you are a hidden dragon in the abyss, or a flash in the pan!"
"Pass the old man's order!"
Xuanwu Long Street is very lively, after walking out of the Taishi Mansion, such a lively street is so clear and echoes in the ears.
"Prince, shall we go back?"
Without the support of the Taishi Mansion, it is a little worrying, Shuang'er has lived in the palace for many years, and although he is young, he also knows the importance of taking advantage of the situation.
However, in those worried eyes, there was a little brightness, which was extremely moving.
She was an orphan rescued by the late queen, and she was deeply grateful to the late queen, even after accompanying Chu Yun in the palace for so many years, she had never thought of leaving, in order to repay the grace of saving her life.
She has no father or mother, and regards the late queen as her mother, if Chu Yun hands over the only relic of the late queen, although she also knows rationally that this is the best way to protect herself, emotionally, she will be a little disappointed.
Chu Yun didn't do this, which undoubtedly made people a little happy, but he thought that without the support of the Taishi Mansion, and he had already revealed his secrets, it would be even more dangerous to survive in the palace in the future, and the brightness in Shuang'er's eyes disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Chu Yun smiled and said, "We shouldn't have walked around this royal city for a long, long time, right? ”
He didn't have that much to worry about!
It is true that without the support of the Taishi Mansion, the road ahead will indeed be much more difficult, and the countless hidden arrows in the palace cannot be guarded against, just with his cultivation of the five-layer Qi Realm, no matter what, there is no way to hide from it.
Russell said that he could survive in the past, which was luck, and there may not be such luck in the future, and this sentence is not wrong at all.
However, all people, everyone who knows Chu Yun, probably will not be surprised by the fact that today's Chu Yun is no longer the Chu Yun of the past.
In the past, Chu Yun lived on the edge of life and death at all times, and before he was born, the fetal gas vibrate, causing the innate meridians to be distorted after birth, and the five internal organs were not accessible, and he could not cultivate.
When he was seven years old, he went out to worship his ancestors, his mother was attacked and killed, and then in the past ten years, he struggled in dire straits, which led to his cowardice in character, and evasion in dealing with things, and even incompetence.
Now Chu Yun, in another world, controls a huge business empire, he is decisive, brave and strategic, tenacious and courageous!
Different personalities determine that when facing the world and the world, there will be different choices and different ways to deal with them!
It seems that at present, the road ahead is difficult, and we are always facing a crisis, but in the crisis, we may not be able to find the vitality and hope to survive.
In such a world, although martial arts are the only one, Chu Yun does not believe that there is no other way for people to live except for martial arts.
He always believes that in any world, there is no way for people to live, and there is only one way to go!
The huge Chu Dynasty, in this royal city, Chu Yun believes that he can also make a noise, otherwise, wouldn't he live up to such a crossing?
