More than half a month has passed since Chen Qi came to the capital and was sealed.
The affairs in the army have almost been taken care of, and the remaining minor matters can be left to Qinglong and Xuanwu, who are fully capable of taking care of them.
Today, he plans to go home and take a look.
Chen Qi was named the Governor of the Nine Gates, and the entire Chen royal family naturally knew about it.
When Chen Qi returned, the Chen royal family was full of joy and even held a grand banquet to welcome him grandly.
Because of the royal war not long ago, two of the three emperors have been eliminated, leaving the Chen royal family alone.
In fact, the senior officials of the Chen royal family are worried about this.
Throughout the ages, it is not uncommon for a single family to end up with a tragic end.
That's how it works.
The imperial court will definitely not allow this kind of thing to happen, and will secretly use some means to suppress it, or re-establish a force in order to achieve balance.
Therefore, the Chen royal family has been paying close attention to the above actions recently.
However, now that Chen Qi has been promoted to the governor of the Nine Gates, everyone's concerns have been completely dispelled.
With Chen Qi as his backer, even if the Chen royal family is really shackled in one way or another, it won't be any worse.
People like Chen Yinghao, Chen Shisan, Chen Xiaotian and others felt quite emotional.
I remember that when Chen Qi first came to compete for the throne, many people in the Chen royal family had never seen this young man coming from a "remote village".
However, who would have thought that Chen Qi would have such a terrifying identity as the Lord of the [Dragon Temple].
Now, he has been promoted to the governor of the Nine Gates!
No wonder that when he was selecting the heir to the throne, Chen Qi acted indifferently towards the throne of the Chen royal family.
It turns out that people's state of mind and structure are no longer within the reach of ordinary people like them.
After all, compared with positions such as the Dragon God and the Governor of the Nine Gates, the head of the Chen Royal Family is not even a bit inferior.
After the reception banquet, Chen Yinghao suddenly found Chen Qi.
"Chen Qi, when you were going to the capital to receive your seal, there was an uninvited guest who came to visit you many times.
Do you want to meet me?"
"uninvited guest?"
Chen Qi looked slightly stunned, "Who?"
Just as Chen Yinghao was about to respond, he saw several tall men walking outside the door.
"Well, it's coming soon."
Chen Qi frowned slightly and looked intently.
But I saw the middle-aged man at the head walking into the hall as if there was no one else around.
He held his head high, first looked back and forth at Chen Qi, and then asked without being humble or overbearing.
"Presumably this is the current leader of the Chen royal family, Chen Qi, right?
Or should I call you, Governor Chen?"
"Who are you……"
The middle-aged man weighed his collar and said, "I am Zhuge Yuanqing, a member of the [Longzhong] Zhuge family."
"Zhuge family?"
Chen Qi couldn't help but fall into a brief memory.
Speaking of the Zhuge family, we have to trace back to the royal war a few months ago.
At that time, everyone in the Chen Royal Family always thought that Murong Haoying was from the Zhuge Clan. Later, they found out that Murong Haoying actually had a close relationship with the Zhuge Clan. In order to destroy the Chen Royal Clan, they also received their most valuable treasure from the Zhuge Clan. [
Crouching Dragon Sword].
Later, Chen Qi went to [Longzhong] to bring Murong Qingxue back, but was blocked by the Zhuge clan, and the two sides fought fiercely.
He thought that the matter would end like this, but he didn't expect that the other party would appear in his sight again.
"It turns out it's the Zhuge family. I don't know, what do you want from Chen?"
Zhuge Yuanqing spoke indifferently, "The last time Mr. Chen came to [Longzhong] as a guest, my Zhuge family did not fulfill our friendship as landlords and had some misunderstandings with Mr. Chen."
"On the order of the family leader, I have come to invite Mr. Chen to visit Longzhong again."
Chen Qi looked frivolous, "Can I ask the reason?"
"The head of the family has said that Mr. Chen is young and promising and would like to get acquainted with you."
Zhuge Yuanqing smiled and said, "By the way, please bring Murong Qingxue with you and tell her that we have helped her find her biological mother."
"The words have been brought here. It is entirely up to Mr. Chen to decide whether to go or not. Farewell!"
After saying that, without waiting for Chen Qi's response, Zhuge Yuanqing led his men and turned around to leave.
When the people in the hall saw this, they all stared with big eyes and small eyes, angry and helpless.
Without him, it's just because Zhuge Yuanqing and his party are too rude.
Since he was here to treat guests, he acted in a condescending manner and was extremely arrogant. This clearly meant that he did not take the Chen royal family seriously.
However, everyone is helpless about this, because they all know that the Zhuge family is a hidden sect in the world today and has been passed down for thousands of years.
The background of his family is only higher than that of the Chen royal family today.
The hall was silent for a long time, and finally Chen Yinghao broke the silence.
"Chen Qi, do you want to go?"
Chen Qi smiled warmly, "Master, do you think I should go?"
Chen Yinghao thought for a moment and then replied, "If the Zhuge family really wants to have good relations with my Chen royal family, they can go and have a chat."
"However, I'm just afraid there's some fraud in it..."
After all, Chen Yinghao has been the head of the Chen Royal family for so many years. He can tell the difference between a monster and a snake at a glance.
Judging from Zhuge Yuanqing's previous attitude, it is obvious that the Zhuge family is particularly disdainful of the Chen royal family.
And Zhuge Yuanqing probably already knew that Chen Qi was named the governor of the Nine Sects, but his attitude was still so arrogant, which is really intriguing.
Is it possible that the Zhuge clan really has the confidence to confront the current Chen royal family?
Chen Qi did not comment on this, "I will put this on hold for now. I will send someone to check what kind of medicine the Zhuge clan is selling in the gourd, and then I will make a decision."
Chen Yinghao nodded, "That's very good."
After the banquet ended, Chen Qi returned to his courtyard.
But they saw Ye Miaoyu and her colleague Suzaku chatting in the courtyard. Next to them was Murong Qingxue, whom they had not seen for a long time.
The three of them talked happily.
I learned from Ye Miaoyu before that when Chen Qi went abroad, because Suzaku also went with her, she had to stay at home alone, which was very boring.
Fortunately, Murong Qingxue would visit her from time to time and chat with her about home affairs to relieve her loneliness.
Perhaps it was because the two had many similarities in their past experiences that they got along very well with each other.
Over time, the two began to treat each other as sisters.
Ye Miaoyu's heart was as clear as a mirror. Of course she saw Murong Qingxue's affection for Chen Qi.
But she is not a petty person, and she will not feel hostile because the other person covets her man.
In her opinion, Chen Qi's excellence is enough to make any woman fall into it and be unable to extricate herself.
Suzaku is, and so is Murong Qingxue.
But Chen Qi has always been devoted to her, which is also the source of her confidence.
At this time, Ye Miaoyu was overjoyed to see Chen Qi coming back, "Hey, Archie is back."
As soon as she said these words, Murong Qingxue's delicate body couldn't help but tremble.
She stood up in a panic, squirming and not knowing where to put her hands, "Chen, brother Chen Qi."
