Under the leadership of Secretary No. 1, this huge courtyard is like a deep palace. Not only are there many guards, but powerful people are hiding in hiding. The criss-crossing roads can make ordinary people get lost if they are not familiar with it.
After walking for more than ten minutes, Chen Xuan and others came to a checkpoint. Here, special guards scanned their bodies. They were not allowed to carry any weapons, including mobile phones and other electronic devices.
After doing all this, Chen Xuan and Shen Chuyun, led by Secretary No. 1, arrived in front of a courtyard gate. Secretary No. 1 stopped and said to Shen Chuyun, "Minister Shen, please stay here." Just wait a moment and Mr. Chen will go in with me."
Shen Chuyun nodded and lowered his voice to Chen Xuan and said, "Boy, when you see the emperor later, don't talk nonsense and go ahead."
Chen Xuan rolled his eyes. Regardless of his identity, isn't he just an ordinary old man?
Chen Xuan followed Secretary No. 1 into the courtyard. As soon as he entered, he saw three figures.
In front of my eyes, I saw two people playing chess in front of a stone table. The old man with snow-white hair was holding a white piece, and the middle-aged man with a strong back and a strong look was holding a black piece. They were both staring at the chessboard intently.
Next to them, there was an old man sitting with a smile on his face.
Seeing this, Chen Xuan couldn't help but feel a little excited. After all, apart from the sturdy middle-aged man, he had already seen the other two old people on TV!
Secretary No. 1 brought Chen Xuan here and left.
Chen Xuan took a deep breath, stepped forward slowly, and stood aside to watch the battle. He would not stand still like a fool. Although the two old men in front of him were of high authority, they were still the world-famous Dongling Gods of War.
Seeing Chen Xuan's actions, the corners of the emperor's and Xiangguo's mouths slowly revealed a smile.
Chen Tiangang remained expressionless and attacked fiercely with the sunspot in hand, forcing the emperor to passively defend.
Seeing this, the emperor suddenly looked at Chen Xuan and asked, "How do you think I should handle this endgame?"
Hearing this, Chen Xuan was stunned, but when it came to playing chess, Lin Suyi had often trained him when he was a child. In the end, even Lin Suyi was no match for him.
Chen Xuan didn't speak. He carefully observed the chessboard. After about ten seconds, he suddenly took out a white piece from the chess holder in front of the emperor, and then slowly dropped it.
The emperor and the prime minister looked at it and immediately pondered and did not speak.
Chen Tiangang remained expressionless and did not even look at Chen Xuan. He only saw him holding the black piece and continuing to besiege the white piece, leaving Chen Xuan with no way out.
Chen Xuan made another move, and Chen Tiangang followed closely behind him, attacking fiercely and completely eating up the white piece.
Chen Xuan fell again, but Chen Tiangang did his part and cut off Chen Xuan's retreat with the sunspot in his hand.
But at this moment, Chen Xuan pinched the white stone and suddenly landed on the black and white center of the chessboard. In an instant, the entire chessboard, which was originally lifeless, suddenly came to life. The white stone, which had no way out, turned from defense to offense at this moment. .
Seeing this, the eyes of the emperor and the prime minister lit up, and the emperor laughed loudly and said: "Confuse the three hands, use retreat to advance, high, indeed high!"
Xiang Guo also smiled and said, "Just three moves turned the entire chess game around. It's amazing!"
Chen Tiangang raised his eyelids, then glanced at him sideways, but said nothing.
"Haha, Tiangang, I am not your opponent, but now it seems that this kid seems to be better than you!"
The emperor said with a smile, then looked at Chen Xuan and said with a smile: "Neither humble nor arrogant, facing difficulties without panic, he really has the style of a general, not bad!"
Chen Xuan smiled and said, "The emperor has given you a reward!"
Xiangguo smiled and said, "Boy, the emperor has never praised anyone for young people. You are the first one, but I have to say that you are indeed very good. No wonder you can stir up the storm in the capital of God. In the end,
Stand on people."
Chen Xuan said, "The boy is just trying to protect himself out of desperation."
"It's a good idea to protect yourself."
The emperor looked at him and smiled and said, "You kid, don't act miserable in front of me. The final outcome of those guys you tortured to death was much more miserable. Don't worry, I won't hold you responsible. Some people in Shendu really deserve it."
Clean it up."
Chen Xuan was stunned, what did this mean?
"Okay, stop standing, sit down."
The emperor waved his hand, looked at Chen Xuan and continued: "I know you have doubts in your heart, but what do you think the gods were like before you came?"
After hearing this, Chen Xuan sat down, thought for a moment and said, "The atmosphere is full of chaos and hegemony is rampant. Let's not talk about the major families, but their descendants are too arrogant, and the entire god has completely become their wanton arrogance and rampage.
Wuji's battlefield, if this continues, the entire God City will be filled with public resentment."
The emperor shook his head and said, "What you see is only the surface. The most important thing is the power behind them. If they don't have family background to support them, what capital do they have?"
"The most irritating thing is that they push their limits, do nothing to achieve their goals in their position, and rely on their seniority to try to compete with the higher-ups. If this continues, they will only get worse and shake the country."
Xiang Guo shook his head, weakening the power of these people was already imperative and must be done.
Once the delay continues, the final situation will become increasingly difficult.
Chen Xuan didn't speak. He knew that the emperor still had something to say, but he roughly guessed the emperor's purpose.
"Do you know why I let you enter the capital of God?"
The emperor suddenly asked.
Chen Xuan thought for a while and said, "Did I say that the emperor will not be angry?"
"Haha, but it doesn't matter."
"Kill with a borrowed knife."
Chen Xuan said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, the emperor was silent for a moment, then he suddenly laughed and said, "You look so polite, don't you know how to change your words?
But what you kid said is right. If you want to clear up the current situation in Shendu, someone must muddy the water first, and this person must have the strength to compete with the Shendu family. For now, you kid
The most suitable one, because your kid is so fearless that he even dares to touch the butts of the royal family. I’m afraid the Shendu family is just a paper tiger in your eyes."
Chen Xuan was not surprised. It seemed that he had guessed correctly.
But now that I think about it carefully, if the things he did in the city of God had not been secretly approved by the higher-ups, I am afraid that he would have been taken advantage of long ago.
Chen Xuan suddenly asked, "Emperor, if nothing happened to the Wang family when we first entered the city of God, and it seems that the following series of things would not have happened, wouldn't my sword be useless?"
The emperor and the prime minister looked at each other.
The emperor smiled and said, "Don't worry, now that your sword is here, there will always be a way to make you bleed. However, the actions of the Ye family boy secretly instructing the Wang family boy have saved us a lot of trouble."
Xiang Guo also smiled and said, "Originally, we have prepared several targets for you to practice swordsmanship on, but now there is no need for them at all!"
Hearing this, Chen Xuan rolled his eyes: "A bunch of old foxes!"
