Volume 2 Jiuyuan Xuanxing Chapter 75 King Qi entered the capital three times
Jiu'er's Qinglong bloodline awakened, which made Chu Hong feel that the pressure had suddenly increased a lot.
After Jiu'er met Steward Sun, Zhan Yunqian decided to take Jiu'er to meet Master Xuanxing Zhenren in Jiuyuan Mountain first.
On the third day after seeing off his senior sister and Jiu'er, the old man Xuanwu suddenly visited the Qi Palace, and brought a very bad news.
Some time ago, there was a rumor on the rivers and lakes that the treasure of the previous dynasty was about to appear, and the location was Handan, Kyoto, in Zhao State. For a time, Handan once again became a place where wind and clouds gathered. A large number of masters of the Innate Realm poured into Handan again, and even some old monsters loomed around Handan.
Soon after, another rumor was released, and the current Zhao royal family is a remnant of the previous dynasty. The secret of the treasure of the previous dynasty was in the hands of the royal family of Zhao State. The masters of the rivers and lakes and the sects who were about to move all set their eyes on the Zhao family. The Zhao family is in danger.
The news brought by the old man Xuanwu temporarily disrupted Chu Hong's plan and made him even more puzzled.
He didn't understand, why did the old man Xuanwu care so much about the treasures of the previous dynasty?
Regarding this legendary figure in the Far East, Chu Hong has also checked some information, and he has broken through to the Divine Illumination Realm a hundred years ago. This is definitely a genius for the Far East.
With his cultivation, he could completely go to a place where his aura was more abundant to cultivate. Not to mention anything else, if the old man Xuanwu goes to any state capital, any family, even if he is just a nominal guest, he will get a lot of resources for cultivation.
But now is not the time to think about this, when Chu Hong learned the news. I had to put aside what I was doing for the time being and prepare to leave for Handan, Kyoto. Not for anything else, Zhao Qingchan is currently the prince of Zhao State, and she is also the only daughter-in-law of Chu Hong who was recognized by the old lady before her death. What's more, the old emperor Zhao Heng had the grace of knowing him at the beginning, although the last time the old emperor gave up Marshal Luo Shihong for the sake of the overall situation, he let Liu Yan kill him.
Although the old emperor did his best to make up for it afterwards, Chu Hong knew that he still had a grudge in his heart. But in general, he still owes Zhao Guo something. This time, Chu Hong decided to help Zhao Guo one last time. To do the last thing for this piece of land that I first set foot on this continent. But this period of cause and effect.
Zhao Kingdom Kyoto, Handan City. This ancient city is still standing here after thousands of years.
When Chu Hong stepped into this city for the third time, he was sitting in comparison with the ancient city of Handan in his previous life, which was also a thousand-year-old city and had many stories and legends. Are they the trajectories of different worlds, or are they different trends in the development of the same civilization?
Chu Hong, who stepped into the ancient city of Handan for the third time, was completely different from the last two times. This time, Chu Hong put on a full swing, and King Qi's guard of honor could be seen from afar. Even Fang Wei and Niu Gang, who were about to step into the innate realm, were brightly equipped with spears and horses, and sat on the horses with bright guns.
This time, Chu Hong's purpose was to deter those foreign masters. Of course, the effect of Chu Hong's doing this is obvious, at least those royal grandsons and Manchu Dynasty civil and military equipment who are about to move do not dare to act rashly. After all, the last time more than a dozen innate masters of the Liu family joined forces with Chu Hong and the old emperor, it was not long after the whole army was wiped out outside Handan City.
Now that this rumor has been favored by a certain major sect and the slaughter embryo that has been included in the door wall has returned, they have to be cautious.
For a while, Handan City, which was surging in the dark tide, fell into calm as if nothing had happened.
Shili Pavilion, the battlefield where Chu Hong and Liu Yan were originally located has now been built again. Led by the prince Zhao Qingchan, the team accompanying the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty respectfully waited for the arrival of Chu Hong's honor guard.
"Welcome King Qi back to Beijing!"
Everyone shouted respectfully in unison under the leadership of Zhao Qingchan.
"Get up, Qingchan, come, come with me to see Your Majesty. ”
Chu Hong sat on the big bowl and said quietly. and called Zhao Qingchan to go straight to the imperial city with him, as for the others, they ignored it.
When Chu Hong's honor guard was far away, the ministers followed behind and slowly walked back.
"It's... That's too arrogant, isn't it?"
"That's it, Lord Liu, General Cui! this Chu Hong is too crazy, right?"
"Hmph, if you can have his ability, I will recognize you as crazy as him. The old minister, known as General Cui, glanced coldly at the man who had just spoken, and followed in great strides.
Inside the car, Chu Hong gently held Zhao Qingchan's hands, "Qingchan, what's the matter with your cultivation? How do I feel that my current cultivation is fluctuating? It's very unstable." ”
In fact, Chu Hong found out about this problem at home last time, but at that time, his grandmother was newly mourned, and he didn't have time to ask in detail. Just take this opportunity to ask about it.
"Well, in fact, I have broken through to the innate realm. But because of the special exercises I practice, this always happens. You don't have to worry, I have a solution. ”
Zhao Qingchan gently leaned her head on Chu Hong's shoulder,
"Chu Hong, let me ask you. If you were to be the emperor of Zhao, would you be willing?"
Chu Hong had never thought about this question, and coldly let Zhao Qingchan ask this, and suddenly didn't know how to answer. To be honest, if he hadn't met the little senior sister and hadn't gone to Jiuyuan Mountain, if Zhao Qingchan asked this question, Chu Hong might not hesitate to agree. However, since Chu Hong saw the vast world outside, his pursuit at the moment has become different.
He knew that if he wanted to protect the people around him, if he wanted to break the rules of this world, then he had to make himself stronger. So that he could protect everything he wanted to protect, to pursue the answers to the questions that existed in his head.
For a while, Chu Hong didn't know how to answer Zhao Qingchan.
"I see!"
At this moment, Zhao Qingchan understood what her father said to her in the imperial study. She knew that the small pond of Zhao Guo really couldn't accommodate Chu Hong's dragon.
But she has to bear all this, she knows Chu Hong, Chu Hong will not stay. Just like Chu Hong also knows her, she will not give up everything in Zhao Guo and follow Chu Hong's footsteps to a broader world.
At this moment, neither of them spoke, just kept quiet, sat next to each other, and enjoyed the last bit of time that belonged to the two of them.
However, good times are always short-lived, and no matter how long the road is, there are times when they come to an end.
The Imperial City is just around the corner.
Chu Hong took the lead in getting out of the car, and then stretched out her hand and gently helped Zhao Qingchan to get out of the car. Then the two walked into the imperial city together.
"You guys go to the house to rest first!"
In the imperial study, the old emperor is still as usual, as long as there is nothing to do, he will review the chapters in the imperial study.
"Your Majesty, King Qi and Princess Qingchan are here!" the third prince walked up to the old emperor and said in a respectful whisper.
"Oh, the boy is back, so soon, let them in!"
When Chu Hong stepped into this room that impressed him, he saw the decisive old man at first glance. But the difference is that in just half a year, this old man has really become a lot older, and his head without a crown is already full of gray hair. On his already wrinkled face, he could already see several age spots the size of copper coins.
"Chen Chuhong, see Your Majesty!"
"Excuse me, don't worship, you won't be sincere anyway. So why are you pretending to be polite?" The old man's voice directly stopped Chu Hong before he could make any moves.
Chu Hong smoothly put down his hands that had not yet been raised, and glanced at the corner of the side seemingly casually. Then he looked at the shadow behind Zhao Heng.
"You all go out, I'm here, no one can hurt Your Majesty in the slightest. ”
"Go ahead! In the future, King Qi's words will be equivalent to the words of me and Qingchan. ”
Zhao Heng saw that there was no movement there, for fear that Chu Hong would be embarrassed, so he had to interject.
"Hehe, the two of them can't stand my aura for a long time. Old Emperor, you've been getting a lot older lately!"
Chu Hong smiled lightly, walked to the chair on the side and sat down.
"Alas, I'm old! I'm going to abdicate after this year to make way for Chan'er. But before I can do that, I'll have to pave the way for her. Otherwise, she is a woman, and this emperor is not easy to do! There is no man to carry it for her. ”
As he spoke, Zhao Heng glanced at Chu Hong with disgust on his face.
Chu Hong scratched her head a little embarrassed, not knowing how to pick up this conversation. Zhao Qingchan on the side couldn't see the two most important men in her life fighting.
"Father, have you forgotten what you asked Chu Hong to do this time?"
"Alas! My daughter is older, no matter how precious the little padded jacket is, she has to be worn away by others! But some people are still unwilling, even if they take these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains as a dowry. Alas!"
Zhao Heng was halfway through his words, and when he saw his daughter's pretty face, one hand was about to run towards his beard. Hurry up and change the subject.
"Chu Hong, you must have heard some rumors outside recently. I want to hear what you think!"
"To tell you the truth, Your Majesty, I don't really believe in the treasures of the previous dynasty. Even if there were, it wasn't too attractive to me at the moment. Those rumored exercises of the Xuanyuan Realm, the top divine weapons of the Xuan Rank, and countless wealth and gold and silver. It's not appealing to me anymore. ”
Chu Hong said very simply.
"When I come back this time, as long as I can ensure Qingchan's safety and ensure that Handan City will not be destroyed by that group of people, then I will be worthy of your Zhao family. If I really can't hold it, I will also take Qingchan and leave directly back to Jiuyuan Mountain, I promise, with me, her life will definitely be more comfortable than being an emperor. ”
Chu Hong's straightforward answer did not make Zhao Heng angry, but instead nodded with relief.
"Stinky boy, I'm not blind in vain, my family Qingchan likes you so much! ”
Zhao Qingchan on the side also blushed and glanced at the old emperor proudly.
"However, there are some things that you can't help yourself! Maybe you don't look down on that bit of treasure, but if this treasure house of the former dynasty is really opened, you still have to go in! And not only you, but if your sect receives the news, they will also send someone here. ”
Zhao Heng seemed to know a lot of things, and said softly.
"Oh, is there really some treasure hidden in this treasure house? Could it be the legendary heaven-level martial arts divine weapon?"
Chu Hong asked suspiciously.
"Stinky boy, do you know why the former dynasty, which was so powerful, was destroyed overnight and divided into seven kingdoms?"
