"A very important person?" Hearing this, Gu Chen looked at Yun Zishu with some surprise.
"Yes, a person with a very important position in the Shenghua Dynasty!" Yun Zishu nodded solemnly.
After a pause, he said to Gu Chen: "Brother Gu, now that you have obtained a place in the ancestral land, at least thousands of people will enter together. You can't be without any allies, right?"
It was obvious that Yun Zishu was thinking about Gu Chen. After all, the ancestral land of the Shenghua Dynasty was established, and many people were acquaintances and had their own circles. Only Gu Chen was a loner.
If you enter, you are likely to be targeted by all parties, which is a very disadvantageous thing.
Therefore, Yun Zishu tried his best to set up a thread for Gu Chen and take him to meet this person.
No matter how he said it, Yun Zishu also had good intentions. Naturally, Gu Chen couldn't refuse, so he nodded slightly and said, "Brother Yun, please worry about it."
"It's okay." Yun Zishu shook his head and said, "It's just a small matter. I hope I can help you, Brother Gu."
Immediately, the two of them left Yuexian Tower, boarded the carriage that Yun Zishu had prepared long ago, and headed towards the deepest part of the prosperous Shenghua City.
"Brother Yun, what is this?"
After seeing this scene, Gu Chen immediately guessed something and looked at Yun Zishu with some surprise.
In the deepest part of the Shenghua Dynasty, there is an important person with a high status, and the answer has been clearly revealed.
"Is it possible that the person Brother Yun wants to take me to see is a prince?" Gu Chen asked.
"good."
Yun Zishu nodded and said bluntly: "What Brother Gu will see later is the second prince of the Shenghua Dynasty. This time, the second prince will also enter the ancestral land, and I will follow him. I hope Brother Gu will do the best."
You can join.”
Later, Yun Zishu informed Gu Chen that the current emperor of the Shenghua Dynasty had a total of ten children, and Princess Xidi was the youngest.
Among the ten children, there are three princes who are most likely to succeed the throne in the future, namely the eldest prince, the second prince, and the ninth prince.
As for the Yun family, they secretly support the second prince. Yun Zishu has extraordinary talent. Although he is not as good as those monsters who are famous in dozens or hundreds of realms, he is still on the golden list of the avenue, so he has been bound and joined.
The second prince’s camp.
After entering the ancestral land, as expected, he would also join the second prince to seek more resources.
Yun Zishu looked at Gu Chen and said: "Of course, I hope Brother Gu won't misunderstand. This time I asked you to meet the second prince, not to persuade Brother Gu to join the second prince's camp, but just as I said before, to enter
Everyone in the ancestral land has their own relationship, but Brother Gu, you are alone, so you will inevitably not be targeted."
When Gu Chen heard this, he nodded slightly, knowing that Yun Zishu had good intentions.
After all, as the other party said, he had already offended Lu Xin, Yuan Qian, and the eldest prince whom he had never met before.
The relationship between King Zhennan and the eldest prince is like that between the Yun family and the second prince. Yuan Qian met such a tragic end, and he will definitely hold a grudge against Gu Chen. Naturally, the eldest prince will definitely take action if he has the chance.
As for Lu Xin of the Seven Star Sect, there is no need to say more.
Yun Zishu was right about what he said. Everyone who entered the ancestral land was basically connected with who they were and what kind of circles they were in. Only Gu Chen didn't know anyone, so he could easily be attacked by a group.
Therefore, the first one will be eliminated.
That's why Yun Zishu considered whether he could let Gu Chen join the second prince's camp and receive his protection.
Otherwise, once he enters the ancestral land and encounters the eldest prince, Lu Xin, Yuan Qian and others, it will definitely be difficult for Gu Chen to end up.
In order to prevent Gu Chen from thinking again, Yun Zishu added: "Of course, if Brother Gu really has no idea, you don't have to be embarrassed to refuse because of me."
If you want to join a camp and be protected, you naturally can't give up nothing, especially for an outsider like Gu Chen.
Therefore, what Yun Zishu means is that if Gu Chen is unwilling to agree to the conditions proposed by the second prince later, he can just refuse them directly.
"Okay, thank you, Brother Yun." Gu Chen said.
The carriage moved very quickly, and while the two were talking, it had already entered the imperial city.
Because of the extremely conspicuous Yun family's beauty on the carriage, the people guarding the imperial city only took one look at it and let it go.
Along the way, we came to a palace, surrounded by mountains, flowing water, and undulating bamboo forests. This was the residence of the second prince, and it was somewhat secluded.
Of course, the seemingly quiet environment, in fact, Gu Chen has sensed that there are dozens of qi lurking around. Once someone who shouldn't be there appears, or someone makes the slightest move, these qi will explode immediately.
, tear all accidents into pieces.
After all, he is the candidate who is expected to become the next emperor of the Shenghua Dynasty, so his protection for the second prince is naturally in place.
"Brother Gu, we are here."
Soon, Gu Chen and Yun Zishu got off the carriage, came to the front of the palace, and said to the guards guarding here: "Please tell the second prince that Yun Zishu wants to see you."
This guard had obviously met Yun Zishu. Hearing this, he nodded and said, "Master Yun, wait a moment."
"Okay." Yun Zi agreed comfortably.
Soon, the guard came back and said to Gu Chen and Yun Zishu: "You two, the second prince has invited you."
"Let's go, Brother Gu." Yun Zishu greeted Gu Chen, and the two of them walked into this huge palace.
As far as the eye can see, there is a hall, surrounded by a total of eighteen dragon-patterned pillars, supporting the place. A young man in his thirties, wearing bright yellow clothes, thick eyebrows and big eyes, with a majestic face, walked away
At the top.
His appearance is fifty-six points similar to that of the emperor of the Shenghua Dynasty.
"I've met the second prince."
After seeing this young man, Yun Zishu quickly bowed respectfully.
When Gu Chen saw this, he also raised his hands in greeting.
When the second prince at the top saw this scene, his eyes narrowed slightly, but he soon returned to normal.
After walking into the palace, Gu Chen discovered that there were more than a dozen qi machines hidden here alone, which made him sigh that this kind of guarding force was really strict.
"Zishu, you and I have known each other for a long time, so there is no need to be polite." The second prince opened his mouth and smiled lightly, with a relaxed and contented demeanor, showing a royal demeanor.
Yun Zishu raised his head and said respectfully to the second prince: "Thank you very much, second prince."
"My palace is relatively cold and there are not many people. I am used to living alone. Zishu, you can take your friends and sit wherever you want. You don't have to be so formal. Everyone can be more casual." The second prince smiled.
"yes."
Yun Zishu nodded. The second prince asked him to do whatever he wanted, but of course he couldn't really do whatever he wanted.
The majesty of the royal family is still unbreakable, and this is already the case for ordinary dynasties, let alone existences such as the Shenghua Dynasty that can be regarded as behemoths when looking at the upper world.
"The second prince's palace is indeed very secluded, and I personally prefer such a place." Yun Zishu said.
The second prince smiled and said: "I also like a quieter environment, so I don't have any guards. On weekdays, I am the only one practicing in this palace."
Hearing this, Gu Chen couldn't help but twitch his sword eyebrows slightly. As for Yun Zishu, given his level of cultivation, of course he couldn't sense the existence of those around him, so he wouldn't react at all.
"It seems that this second prince likes to hold it very much." Gu Chen thought to himself.
He was obviously very afraid of death, and there were a bunch of people around him, but he just said that he was the only one, and this second prince was really willing to pretend.
This is the royal family. Sometimes, for the sake of the throne, you may even need to hide your true personality.
But in Gu Chen's opinion, if you are afraid of death, you are afraid of death. What is there to hide?
At this time, the second prince sitting at the top turned his eyes to Gu Chen and said, "This must be Brother Gu Bai who stole my tenth sister's heart, right?"
"Gu Bai, I have met the second prince." Gu Chen stood up and cupped his hands.
When the second prince saw this, he narrowed his eyes slightly and imperceptibly. He thought that everything was perfect, but this slight change in expression could not escape Gu Chen's perception, or rather his eyesight.
After all, he has developed a pair of celestial eyes. Even if he does not use his magical powers on weekdays, he can observe things more meticulously than any other monk.
"When we met today, Brother Gu is really a talented person. No wonder he stole the heart of my tenth sister." The second prince smiled, pretending to be approachable, and said to Gu Chen: "It's just that I have to tell Brother Gu that I
The tenth sister is deeply loved by the father, and if you want to successfully pursue her, you will make many enemies for yourself, and you will have to work hard to do so."
When Gu Chen heard this, he had nothing to express. He really didn't know what to say, so he could only nod his head as a response.
Seeing this, Yun Zishu quickly said: "Second Prince, you are also aware of Brother Gu's matter. Now, as expected, the eldest prince's camp has blacklisted him. Soon, the ancestral land will be opened.
Brother Gu's talent and strength are far superior to mine, could you please ask the Second Prince to protect you at your convenience?"
When the second prince heard this, he just smiled faintly and did not reply immediately. Instead, he looked up and down and examined Gu Chen.
This kind of scrutinizing gaze was a bit sharp, which made Gu Chen's eyebrows frown slightly. Just when he was about to speak, the second prince spoke first. He smiled and said, "It's not impossible to let me protect Brother Gu."
When Yun Zishu saw this, he looked happy and said quickly: "If the second prince has any conditions, please put them forward. If I, Yun Zishu, can do it, I will have no objection."
When Gu Chen heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Yun Zishu in surprise.
The second prince glanced at him, shook his head slightly, and said, "The Yun family has helped me enough. Besides, I am protecting Gu Bai, why do I need you, Zishu, to pay the price?"
Hearing this, Yun Zishu suddenly looked startled, and then asked: "I wonder if the second prince needs Brother Gu?"
Gu Chen stood aside with a calm expression and said nothing.
The second prince stared at him for a few times, smiled, and said: "How about letting him join me and assist me with all his heart?"
Gu Chen is the favorite of Princess Xidi, and Princess Xidi is his father, the apple of the eye of the contemporary emperor of the Shenghua Dynasty, and the most favored among the ten children.
Once he has mastered Gu Chen, he is equivalent to mastering Princess Xidi. At that time, the latter will continue to speak kindly to the emperor of the Shenghua Dynasty. Over time, the second prince believes that the probability of him ascending to the position of Dabao is obviously higher than
The eldest prince and the ninth prince are even worse.
In other words, the second prince did not value Gu Chen, but Princess Xidi, so he proposed this condition.
But Yun Zishu's expression changed, because although he didn't have much contact with Gu Chen, he also knew what Gu Chen's character was like. It was absolutely impossible for him to work for someone else, even if that person was the second prince.
Besides, Princess Xidi will never agree.
The most important thing is that this is different from what he discussed with the second prince yesterday.
He quickly said: "Your Highness, didn't we agree yesterday to let Brother Gu..."
"Zishu!"
At this time, the second prince interrupted Yun Zishu impatiently, with a gloomy look on his face, and said: "Sometimes, you have to pay for what you want. I have heard about him. Yuan Qian was cut off from the position of hereditary neglect."
If he enters the ancestral land, he will definitely retaliate wildly, and Lu Xin from the Seven Star Sect, if he enters the ancestral land without my protection, his fate can be said to be certain death."
"So, if I want to protect him, I will definitely pay a huge price, and may even turn against the Seven Star Gate. You don't know what is behind the Seven Star Gate, right?"
The second prince continued: "How can I only help an outsider after I have paid so much? But if Gu Bai can become one of our own and join my subordinates, then naturally everything will no longer be a problem. Moreover, my opponent's
You know my attitude, so you can rest assured about that."
"how do you feel?"
With this last sentence, the second prince was asking Gu Chen. He was very confident and thought he had control over both of them.
After all, with Yuan Qian's strength and Lu Xin's strength, as long as he is not stupid and understands, he will know how to choose.
But who would have thought that Gu Chen sighed softly, looked at Yun Zishu, and said: "Brother Yun, let's go."
"Huh?" Upon hearing this, the second prince suddenly frowned and his face darkened.
"Don't say I didn't warn you. After you leave this door, no one in the entire Shenghua Dynasty can protect you except me." The second prince's voice became colder.
But Gu Chen ignored it and left with Yun Zishu directly.
It wasn't until he left the palace that Yun Zishu came to his senses and said apologetically to Gu Chen: "Brother Gu, I'm sorry, I didn't expect it to be like this."
"It doesn't matter, I know Brother Yun's good intentions." Gu Chen shook his head gently.
Yun Zishu looked a little anxious at this moment and said: "Brother Gu, this time the ancestral land is opened, all kinds of wizards and monsters gather together, many of them have ideas about Princess Xidi and want to join forces with the Shenghua Dynasty.
By then, it will definitely become a thorn in the side of these people!"
"Not to mention, Brother Gu, you have a deep grudge with Yuan Qian, the eldest son of Zhennan Palace, and Lu Xin of the Seven Star Sect is also very hostile to you. If you enter the ancestral land, Brother Gu, you will definitely become the target of public criticism, and your situation will be extremely dangerous.
!”
Yun Zishu looked worried and anxious. As he said, Gu Chenn had too many enemies on the surface and secretly. He was also alone. Once he entered the ancestral land, the Zhennan Palace, and the forces that were friendly with the Zhennan Palace
, there is also the Seven Star Sect, and the forces that have good relations with the Seven Star Sect, or that have good relations with Lu Xin.
In addition, there are those wizards and monsters who want to marry with the Shenghua Dynasty. There are so many opponents, and they may use what kind of methods. How can Gu Chen cope with it by himself?!
Maybe he would be robbed after entering. The opening of the ancestral land this time cannot be said to be Gu Chen's chance, but his tribulation!
But at this moment, Gu Chen knew this, but still looked calm, and even said something that shocked Yun Zishu.
He said slowly: "It doesn't matter, Brother Yun, I am not afraid of any challenge."
The calm words contained Gu Chen's strong confidence.
Yes, as he said, after entering the ancestral land, they are all the younger generation. Even if everyone swarms them, what does he have to fear?!
