Afterwards, Chenxiong, who had a hot temper, opened his mouth to speak several times, but seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Chen Jinyang frowned: "What's wrong? If you have something to say, just say it and let it go!"
"Yes... the child is worried that Chen Shen will tell his grandfather about us poisoning him. Then I'm afraid..."
"There's nothing to be afraid of! They have no evidence, what can they do to me?"
"In the current Chen family, the internal authority is completely controlled by the Council of Elders. Among the ten elders, five are on my father's side. With their grandfather and grandson's yellow mouth and white teeth, they can't make any waves.
Come!"
"Furthermore, judging from the little beast's behavior today, maybe... he doesn't know that you tried to poison him. At least, it's not certain."
Chen Jinyang recalled the time when he met Chen Shen in front of the Imperial Capital Academy. When the young man faced him, he didn't have the slightest bit of resentment. He could even smile and nod with him, and even chatted and laughed with him along the way.
Chen Jinyang would never believe how deep a city of fifteen or sixteen years old could be.
Because, for the past ten years, he has been a complete idiot and a waste! Logically speaking, even if encountering adventure can change a person's IQ, it is unlikely to change his character...
However, Chen Jinyang was wrong, very wrong! It was not that Chen Shen encountered a strange encounter and recovered from his stupidity, but that he fundamentally changed his soul!
No matter how cunning and cunning Ren Chen Jinyang was, he would never have imagined that everything that happened in front of the Imperial Capital Academy was just an appearance deliberately disguised by Chen Shen.
The reason why that young man did this was to make Chen Jinyang and his two sons take it lightly, and wait until the time was right before he could kill them by surprise!
…
In the West Lake of the imperial capital, on the top floor of the most luxurious building ship in the center of the lake, in a certain elegant room, candles were lit and the light was lingering.
Beside the crystal table, a stunning girl of fifteen or sixteen years old said: "Uncle Xia Lie, how did that matter go?"
"Don't worry, Princess. In the middle of last night, Xia already sent good candidates to Kowloon City. The four brothers are very famous in the mercenary group outside the city, and their cultivation level is between the seventh and eighth stars of Xuanshi." Xia
Lie replied in a calm tone.
Xia Lie was a close confidant trained and promoted by the King of Huainan. In his eyes, Xia Chunqiu had always been his master, and he would only call himself a "subordinate" in front of Xia Chunqiu. Therefore, even when facing Xia Caiyue, he would only call him "subordinate".
"Xia" calls himself.
Xia Caiyue was already used to this, and she would not blame him. She curled her lips, and a hint of sinisterness suddenly flashed across her bright eyes, and said to herself: "Great! Four high-level black men are enough to sweep through all the people in Kowloon City.
In a third-level town, this task is not difficult for them."
"By the way, Princess, there is another matter that Xia must report."
"explain."
"According to reports from our informants in the imperial capital, in this Hundred Schools League, Chen Shen won the top spot in the Battle Hall and the second place in the Dan Hall."
Hearing this, Xia Caiyue frowned: "It's not surprising that Zhantang Chen Shen can win the first princess title. What's surprising is that he is actually a mysterious alchemist with good alchemy skills? Humph, this poor family in Kowloon City
This young man seems to have great potential to be tapped..."
Thinking of this, Xia Caiyue opened her red lips slightly and interrupted: "It doesn't matter. The more talented Chen Shen is, the better. In this way, kidnapping his close relatives will be more valuable to this princess."
A sharp light flashed in the girl's eyes: "If he knows the truth, for the sake of his skills in both Dan and Wu, I can give him a chance to be loyal to me. If not, he and his relatives in Kowloon City,
There is only one end for them all - death!"
Xia Lie seemed to have long been accustomed to the vicious and violent temper of this stunning girl. After the other party finished speaking, he spoke again: "Princess, Xia has not finished speaking yet. The point is, this so-called Chen Shen of Kowloon City, in fact,
He is the legitimate son of the General’s Mansion and the grandson of Chen Zangfeng.”
"What?"
The girl who had always acted calmly and strategizing was shocked after hearing the news. Her surprise was palpable: "Are you sure?"
Xia Lie nodded.
Xia Caiyue's face was gloomy, and she squeezed out a sentence through her teeth: "No wonder this princess felt a deep sense of disgust when she first saw him!"
As a confidant who has followed King Huainan for many years, Xia Lie certainly knows why this girl has so much hatred for Chen Shen. The reason starts from fifteen years ago——
At that time, Xia Yuanlong had just ascended the throne. In order to be kind to the world, he recruited hundreds of officials to the Huangji Palace and granted him titles.
After that time, Chen Shen, the grandson of Chen Zangfeng, had just turned one hundred days old, and Xia Caiyue, the granddaughter of King Xiao Chunqiu of Huainan, had just turned one year old.
For these two ministers, Xia Yuanlong not only praised them personally, but also gave their descendants the virtual titles of "Zhongyonghou" and "Zhongyihou" respectively to show his favor.
Time flies.
Many years later, Xia Caiyue was recognized by the empire as a proud daughter of heaven for her outstanding talent, intelligence and agility, and was highly praised.
On the other hand, Chen Shen from the General's Mansion is a fool and trash who is despised by people.
However, both of them were awarded titles at the same time, Marquis Zhongyong, Marquis Zhongyi, and Chen Shen was still above Xia Caiyue!
How arrogant is Xia Caiyue? Even if she is just a virtual knight who was conferred as a child, she cannot tolerate being ranked behind others.
What's more, that person is still a stupid and cowardly loser as rumored!
This may seem like a ridiculous stubbornness, but for the spoiled Xia Caiyue, it is a perfectly normal thought.
That's why when she learned Chen Shen's name in the Battle Hall Top 100 Competition, she felt an inexplicable hatred and wanted to kill him...
"Abominable, abominable, hateful!"
"The trash of the past has actually climbed onto the head of this princess?"
Xia Caiyue looked like she was crazy: "He must die! Whether it is for the personal grudge of this princess or for my grandfather's grand plan, Chen Shen is born as the direct grandson of Chen Zangfeng, so he must die!"
"shut up!"
Xia Lie glared angrily and shouted sternly: "How can you talk about the prince's important affairs casually? Even if Xia builds a sound barrier with Xuan Neng, there is no guarantee that it will be foolproof. Princess, please remember that this is the capital of Great Xia.
It’s not our Huainan Prince’s Mansion, it needs to be guarded against walls that have ears…”
Xia Caiyue was threatened, and then she calmed down the anger in her heart and nodded: "Uncle Xia Lie reminded me. But if this happens, the people sent by the princess to Kowloon City may be in vain."
"Because even if there are people from Chen Shen in Kowloon City, they are just servants who are ordered to serve. It is useless to bind them. What a pity!"
Xia Lie asked: "Then, do you need me to recall the four of them?"
After thinking for a while, Xia Caiyue shook her head with a dark smile: "No need, even if those servants can't threaten Chen Shen, they can make this princess vent her anger first!"
"Chen Shen, let's wait and see. This princess will have many opportunities to play with you slowly in the future, until your Chen family is in pieces, until you become a human being and a ghost becomes a ghost!"
This night, many people are bound to be unable to sleep because of this young boy Chen Shen!
Chen Shen's grandfather and second uncle were so happy and excited for him that they couldn't sleep.
Chen Jinyang and his son, as well as Princess Caiyue, both regarded Chen Shen as a thorn in their flesh and hated them to the point of being unable to sleep at night...
