Chu Xiu didn't say much about Xiang Chong's mentality that he would rise up as soon as he gained power.
It is normal for young people to have little experience, and they will get used to it after a few ups and downs.
So Chu Xiu just said lightly: "I wonder why Your Highness came to me?"
Xiang Chong sat on Chu Xiu's head with a golden sword on his horse, not showing any of the courtesy or caution he had before.
He waved his hand and said: "Master Chu, celebrities don't tell secrets. Taoism and Buddhism have now entered the city. The life of Zhenwu Tang will be difficult.
I have known you, Mr. Chu, for many years, so naturally I want to help you, Mr. Chu. However, this is my father’s decision, and I have no choice.
But don’t worry, Mr. Chu, as long as you are willing to assist me, temporarily break up the Zhenwu Hall and merge it under the command of my crown prince. When I come to Japan and inherit the throne, I will naturally find a way to help you rebuild the Zhenwu Hall. And I believe this time will not be too long.
Mr. Chu, I remember that many years ago, when you were still on the Dragon and Tiger List and before you became famous in the world, I wanted to recruit Mr. Chu, but Mr. Chu, you refused.
Now, Mr. Chu, you have become famous in the world, but I have also changed from an unpopular prince to the heir of this great Yan. I wonder if I am qualified to recruit you, Mr. Chu?"
When Xiang Chong said this, his heart was filled with joy.
Before he became the prince, Chu Xiu actually felt that this promotion was good.
Because of Xiang Li's suppression, the prince did not have too much of the arrogant temper of the royal family, but instead gained a bit of the grandeur of the world.
Because at that time, Xiang Chong yearned for the Jianghu. In Beiyan, he was suppressed by Xiang Li and could not see any hope. For him, he wished he could be a Jianghu knight instead of being born into an emperor's family. I am on tenterhooks every day, but I can’t see freedom and hope.
But now, Xiang Long's words made him completely turn over and become the heir and controller of this huge empire. This huge gap was enough to make Xiang Chong's entire mentality change. This kind of change did not even occur to Xiang Long. Expected.
Because in Xiang Long's plan, Xiang Chong only needed to watch the Jiangshan Pavilion recover and become a barrier against the Eastern Qi after his vitality was severely damaged after the melee between Taoists, Buddhas and Demons. He could then safely inherit the throne. This was enough.
Who would have thought that now Xiang Chong would come to recruit Chu Xiu and even make such a promise.
In Xiang Chong's heart, which was already distorted, those who looked down on him and joined his brother Xiang Li were detestable. When he ascends the throne in the future, he will surely liquidate them.
Chu Xiu was not a hateful person, but when he recruited Chu Xiu and was rejected, it was like a thorn in his heart. That scene made him feel that Chu Xiu looked down on him.
Now that he has become the prince, Chu Xiu is in danger from all sides. Will he refuse his invitation this time? Do you dare to refuse?
Looking at Chu Xiu below, a smile appeared on Xiang Chong's face. It was a smile he learned from his father, Emperor Xiang Long, as if he had a well-thought-out plan, but it looked a little awkward when placed on Xiang Chong's face.
Chu Xiu was not angry, he just said calmly: "Your Highness was suddenly announced as the crown prince a few days ago, so he was so excited that he slept too much? This is not a good thing. Beiyan will still need Your Highness to shoulder the responsibility in the future. Your body needs to be taken care of."
After hearing Chu Xiu's words, the smile on Xiang Chong's face froze.
He knew what Chu Xiu meant. Chu Xiu was saying that he was all daydreaming!
Xiang Chong stood up suddenly with a gloomy expression, but he swallowed the words that came to his lips.
Although he was indeed overly excited by the news about the prince, it did not mean that he was really stunned by the shock.
Even if he didn't know what his father had done at the time, the elders of the Xiang family later told him.
Chu Xiu's forces were already so fearful that Xiang Long didn't even dare to fall out, and needed to attract Taoism and Buddhism to join forces to suppress him. Of course, he was not qualified to fall out with him, otherwise he would be the one who would be embarrassed.
So Xiang Chong suppressed the anger in his heart and laughed: "Okay, okay! Mr. Chu is really worthy of being Mr. Chu. He is exactly the same as Mr. Chu a few years ago, and has not changed at all!
But Mr. Chu has not changed, but I am no longer the same person I was a few years ago.
A few years ago, I had a hard time even asking for a martial arts master at the True Alchemy Realm to be my guest. But now, the best swordsman in the world has come to serve as my teacher, and there are even some who are at the Real Fire God Refining Realm. The strong ones take the initiative to vote!
I heard that this person is an old friend of Mr. Chu, so it would be nice to meet him today.
Senior Li, please come out."
As Xiang Chong finished speaking, a figure walked out of the inner hall. It was none other than Li Qiudi, who escaped from Chu Xiu last time!
Seeing Li Qiudi again, Chu Xiu was stunned.
This woman has provoked him over and over again, and now she dares to appear in front of him. Is she really not afraid of death, or does she have something to rely on?
Chu Xiu's eyes instantly darkened: "Li Qiudi, I let you escape last time, and I was too lazy to continue to chase you. It was just the smoke rising from your ancestral grave. Now you dare to appear in Beiyan. Who gave you the chance?" Your courage? Who gave you the courage? Who!"
During the last battle in the Mahakala Demon Cult, Li Qiudi could be said to be really frightened by Chu Xiu.
That kind of complete power crushing made her feel powerless. In the end, she even used secret methods to escape with her life. She even almost became possessed. If she hadn't been saved by someone, she had solved her inner demon by coincidence. Maybe her entire cultivation will be ruined.
So when Li Qiudi faced Chu Xiu at this time, although she still had some courage before, her face turned pale when she heard Chu Xiu shout.
At this time, Xiang Chong said: "Master Chu, Senior Li is now the worshiper of my crown prince's palace. In the past, I didn't care about your grievances. Now if you want to take action against Senior Li here, then you didn't put me in the palace." In my eyes!
teacher!"
As Xiang Chong shouted, the 'East China Sea Sword Master' Kang Dongming did not know when he appeared behind him, still holding his sword and looking dull.
He has no murderous intention towards Chu Xiu, not even hostility, but Chu Xiu can guarantee that if he takes action here, the Sword Master of the East China Sea will definitely use his sword.
Chu Xiu looked at Xiang Chong and narrowed his eyes.
Generally speaking, people who have followed Chu Xiu for a long time know that once Chu Xiu shows such an expression, he is usually plotting against someone or killing someone.
Guys with squinting eyes are generally scary.
"Very good. It seems that His Highness the Crown Prince is very confident. However, I still want to advise His Highness the Crown Prince. Some people are not useful. Those who hinder the Lord will be miserable after using them."
After saying that, Chu Xiu turned around and left.
With Kang Dongming around, Chu Xiu couldn't kill Li Qiudi.
Kang Dongming's title of Sword Master of the East China Sea was not blown out, but typed out. Zuowang Jianlu Shen Baochen and Sword King City Shen Tianwang were defeated in his hands one after another. You can imagine how strong the opponent's swordsmanship is.
Although the opponent is definitely no match for the sword master Gu Qingcheng from five hundred years ago, at least in the current martial arts world, there are very few people who can defeat him in the way of swordsmanship.
People like Kang Dongming probably can't put anything else in their heads except swordsmanship in this life. God knows what conditions Xiang Long offered to allow him to stay in Beiyan safely. Become a teacher next to Xiang Chong.
However, the person Chu Xiu wanted to kill, not to mention the Sword Master of the East China Sea, could not stop him, even if the Sword Master Gu Qingcheng from five hundred years ago came, he could not stop him!
However, in the prince's womb at this time, Xiang Chong didn't care about Chu Xiu's threat, only thinking that the other party just wanted to regain some face.
Xiang Chong said to Li Qiudi: "Senior Li, please rest assured, as long as you can assist me, Chu Xiu can't touch you."
Li Qiudi nodded stiffly. She was from a standard martial arts background. Even if she joined the hidden demon lineage, she only acted alone. She was still a little uncomfortable with such etiquette.
But at this time, a handsome young man in white with a jade-like face walked out from the side, put his arm around Li Qiudi's waist very naturally, and smiled at Xiang Chong: "Your Highness, please rest assured, now you are the destiny." , we, the couple, will definitely be on your side."
……………………
After returning to the Zhenwu Hall, Chu Xiu first called Mei Qinglian, told him what happened today, and asked: "How did that woman Li Qiudi get involved with Xiang Chong?"
Mei Qinglian was also stunned for a moment. She knew that Li Qiudi was a woman who might be of the same sex. She had only been in contact with Li Qiudi a few times, but she also looked down on her. When she heard that Li Qiudi actually joined Xiang Chong, she Have someone investigate immediately.
Today's Zhenwu Hall is no longer the Zhenwu Hall of the past. Many people have joined later. Although it is not as good as Feng Manlou in terms of intelligence, at least it is still very useful around Yanjing City.
After a long while, Mei Qinglian had obtained the information from the servants of the Prince's Palace. Mei Qinglian said with a strange expression: "Li Qiudi joined Xiang Chong's staff because of her man."
Chu Xiu was stunned when he heard this: "Li Qiudi has a man?"
Although this Li Qiudi still seems to be charming, she seems to be quite old.
Mei Qinglian nodded and said: "Do you still remember Li Qiudi's background? She was once abandoned by men when she was young, so she almost didn't have a good attitude toward men.
But after she was seriously injured by you last time, she met Lin Fengyu, a descendant of the man who hurt her originally, who was also Xiang Chong's guest. His appearance was almost exactly the same as that of his ancestor.
It was Lin Fengyu who rescued Li Qiudi, and because of his appearance, Li Qiudi was freed from his inner demons and fell in love with him. Lin Fengyu even promised him that he would repay the love debt owed to his ancestors.
From then on, Li Qiudi followed Lin Fengyu's advice, and she came to join Xiang Chong's army, naturally because of Lin Fengyu."
