The two of them walked outside and walked up the back hill. When they reached the halfway slope, Zhou Yan looked at the cave area and sighed softly: "Brother Zhen, your Majesty really didn't say anything to you. This cave of yours is what His Majesty used to do back then."
This is the cave that I used to live in when I was young. Since then, no one has lived here again. Even Senior Brother Fan did not have the honor to live here."
"Oh?" Jiang Chen didn't know anything about this, even Emperor Yunzhong Ming didn't mention this to him.
"Haha, His Majesty thinks highly of you, even more than he thought of Senior Brother Fan at the beginning. Many people think that I, Zhou Yan, am unlucky. If I don't join the Peacock Emperor, maybe I can become the first heir. Therefore,
Many people openly and secretly provoked me and tried to arouse my jealousy..."
Having said this, Zhou Yan also smiled calmly, glanced at Jiang Chen, and then continued: "To be honest, just like what I said on the stage at that time, I feel a little aggrieved, but mostly I feel lucky.
Because no one can be like me. There is always a powerful genius waiting for me to challenge, and there is always a mountain waiting for me to climb. Do you think so?"
I have to say that Zhou Yan's mentality and way of thinking are indeed somewhat different.
Jiang Chen looked at Zhou Yan and smiled without saying a word.
Zhou Yan sighed softly: "His Majesty's vision and magnanimity are definitely not wrong. So, I am here just to tell you, don't worry that I will trick you secretly. I am a disciple of Peacock Holy Mountain, and then you
A competitor. Even if I want to challenge you and defeat you, I will do so in the most upright way. I will never do anything behind your back. You don’t have to worry about me holding you back."
"I'm very relieved." Jiang Chen smiled leisurely, "I'm naturally at ease with the person Your Majesty has chosen."
Zhou Yanwan didn't expect that the other party would be so easy to talk to.
Jiang Chen patted Zhou Yan on the shoulder: "Since I have contributed to the Peacock Holy Mountain, my status is just a cloud. If I say that I don't care about the position of the young master, you will definitely think that I am hypocritical. But in fact, you should
I really don’t mind if I am the young master or I am the young master. It’s just that Your Majesty thinks that I am more suitable at this stage. As for the future, who knows?”
Zhou Yan was stunned. He thought his words were profound enough, but he didn't expect this guy to be more straightforward. These words were simply deviant.
If it were anyone else, Zhou Yan would definitely think that he was hypocritical. But looking at Jiang Chen's clear eyes, Zhou Yan subconsciously believed it.
"By the way, Peacock Holy Mountain seems to be very lively today. What happened?" Jiang Chen asked curiously.
"Isn't that what it is?" Zhou Yan smiled bitterly, "A bunch of boring people want to use this to gain popularity. Miss Dan'er doesn't like them."
"They? Didn't they say there was only Miao Suo?" Jiang Chen was startled.
"At first, there was only Miao Suo, but later several more people came, and even two great emperors came, all here to propose marriage for their talented children." Zhou Yan sighed, "If it was just the Lingzhi clan, His Majesty would have told them to get out.
Yes, but with two great emperors here, Your Majesty has to take it seriously."
"Which two great emperors?" Jiang Chen never expected that this proposal of marriage could create such a huge momentum, that even the great emperors were dispatched.
"One is the Canghai Emperor, and the other is the Annihilation Emperor." Zhou Yan sighed, "These two emperors seem to be fighting with each other. Your Majesty cannot take sides. You can only keep putting out the fire."
Jiang Chen was really speechless. This marriage proposal was a matter of your own free will. If Miss Dan'er wasn't even interested, why would they bother with it?
"Senior Brother Zhen, have you seen Miss Dan'er?" Zhou Yan asked curiously.
Jiang Chen shook his head: "I haven't seen it before, have you seen it?"
Zhou Yan nodded: "I once had a glimpse, and I have to admit that Miss Dan'er is as graceful and graceful as a lady in the empty valley, and her temperament is very outstanding."
Jiang Chen was speechless. Isn't Zhou Yan also interested in Miss Dan'er?
Zhou Yan saw Jiang Chen looking at him with a strange look, and quickly explained: "Senior Brother Zhen, don't get me wrong. I, Zhou Yan, have been pursuing the supreme swordsmanship all my life, and I have absolutely no intention of doing so. I just suddenly felt that Miss Dan'er's
With such a high vision, maybe only someone like you, Senior Brother Zhen, can be able to enter her eyes?"
Jiang Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Is Zhou Yan still messing around with the music this time?
I have never even met Miss Dan'er, so how can I think about this?
While the two were talking, suddenly a ray of light shot down from the clouds, but it was a message note, which fell into Jiang Chen's hand. Jiang Chen opened it and looked at it, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty has summoned me, Brother Zhou, come with me to see Your Majesty."
?”
Zhou Yan originally wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it he nodded: "Okay."
The two left the cave and flew towards the palace of the Peacock Emperor.
The Peacock Emperor was obviously in a bad mood. The four emperors were sitting next to the Peacock Emperor, and their expressions were extremely dignified and complicated.
Especially Emperor Domei Ming, who slapped the table and shouted: "These inexplicable things, how can I, the daughter of the Peacock Holy Mountain, covet them? It's really disgusting to be so shameless."
Emperor Yunzhong Ming smiled bitterly and said: "Fellow Taoist Domei, there is no need to be angry. Hasn't His Majesty already sent them away? Perhaps, this result is the best result for the time being."
Domei said angrily: "What the hell can this be called the best result? If it weren't for these bastards who are so shameless, Dan'er would have announced a three-year solitary confinement?"
At this time, Jiang Chen and Zhou Yan just walked in.
When Emperor Domeimei saw the young man's appearance, the anger on his face lessened a bit.
The Peacock Emperor sighed softly: "You are here."
"Greetings to Your Majesty." Jiang Chen and Zhou Yan stepped forward to salute.
"No need to be polite." The Peacock Emperor waved his hand, "Today's affairs were a bit rushed. Emperor Canghai and Emperor Nie Mie came to propose marriage at the same time, which was unexpected by me. However, this may not be a surprise to Dan'er.
It's a bad thing. I hope that she can open up the knot in her heart. But I didn't expect that the knot in her heart will become tighter and tighter.
To be honest, Emperor Maurya has no objection to the proposal of marriage. Otherwise, with his power, if he really disagrees, as long as his face darkens a little, others will have to leave wisely.
But the Peacock Emperor didn't do that.
He just wanted Dan'er to open up his heart and try to get in touch with these young talents in Liuli City. However, Dan'er's heart was getting tighter and tighter, and he was completely unable to get out of his past.
In this way, the marriage proposal eventually turned into a farce, and ended with Dan'er announcing that he would be in seclusion for three years.
This made Emperor Maurya finally realize clearly that the matters of young people were indeed not something that he, as an elder, could enlighten if he wanted to.
He, the Peacock Emperor, can control the fate of Liuli City and the life and death of many people, but he cannot control the love between men and women.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Emperor Peacock waved his hand and said to his four emperors: "You guys go down first, Xiao Zhen and I will have a few words alone."
Hearing what the Peacock Emperor said, the four emperors stood up and left one after another. Zhou Yan was also very sensible. After saluting, he followed the four emperors and left.
"Little guy, would you like to accompany me for a walk?" The Peacock Emperor smiled.
Jiang Chen knew that His Majesty had something on his mind, so he nodded immediately. Now in the Peacock Holy Mountain, the old and the young, they seemed to have been friends for years.
The two of them walked slowly along the Peacock Emperor's palace, and when they reached a high place, their mood gradually became brighter.
"Your Majesty, this is not like you. The love between children is a matter for young people. This kind of thing cannot be forced. Even if you dote on Miss Dan'er, there seems to be no need to take care of her personal happiness, right?" Jiang Chen
Different from others.
Even the four emperors did not dare to say such words in front of the Peacock Emperor, but he had no taboos. He also knew that the Peacock Emperor regarded him as a confidant and left him alone because he definitely did not want to listen to his flattery and flattery.
flattery.
Emperor Peacock smiled bitterly and said: "You guys really dare to say that. To tell you the truth, I have always been free and easy, but I can't worry about Dan'er. She is not my biological daughter, but I treat her as my own. Maybe, this is
Life. Everyone, no matter how strong they are, must have some weaknesses in their lives. Dan'er, maybe it's my weakness?"
Jiang Chen listened quietly. When he heard the words of the Peacock Emperor, he suddenly felt a sore nose because he suddenly thought of his father in his previous life.
I didn't feel it in my previous life. Now think about it, maybe I was the only weakness in my father's life in my previous life, right?
It was precisely this weakness that made his father, who was the Emperor of Heaven, unable to stop the catastrophe of heaven and earth in the end.
If the Emperor's father didn't have this weakness of his and could go all out to deal with the catastrophe calmly, maybe the result would be different?
There are no ifs in things in this world.
When Jiang Chen thought about this, his heart ached.
Therefore, he had a deep understanding of the words of the Peacock Emperor. He did not think that the Peacock Emperor was moaning for nothing.
"Your Majesty, everything has its own fate. Although this Miss Dan'er is not your biological child, maybe she is destined to have a fate similar to that of father and daughter with you?"
"Maybe." The Peacock Emperor's eyes were soft and full of fatherly glory. If there were others around at this time, I'm afraid they would never have imagined that the undisputed first person in Liuli King City in the past three thousand years would have such a gentle attitude.
one side.
Suddenly, Emperor Peacock seemed to think of something: "By the way, you are also from the Wanxiang Territory. Dan'er also said that she is from the Wanxiang Territory. Do you know which sect in your Wanxiang Territory has a person named Dan'er?
"
"Dan'er?" Jiang Chen frowned. He suddenly remembered a person, an elegant figure - Concubine Dan.
"Your Majesty, she said her name is Dan'er? Are there any other clues?" Jiang Chen took a deep breath and asked.
"She has a daughter named Nian'er." The Peacock Emperor frowned.
"Have a daughter?" Jiang Chen suddenly smiled bitterly, and all the curiosity he had at first disappeared.
Concubine Dan is not married, so where can she get a daughter? It seems that she is overthinking. Besides, there are so many territories in Vientiane, how many girls named Dan'er are there?
