Xia Houzun, Lin Chen and Xiang Tianxing arrived at the palace hall.
Xia Houzun looked at Lin Chen who was hesitant to speak and said, "Do you have anything to say?"
Lin Chen said: "I suspect that the reason why Ji Yunting took action against the Xiang family may have something to do with King Yun. He specifically asked people to notify him as soon as he saw us. It seems that he really doesn't want us to see you. I have a feeling,
He may have known about Xiang Tianxing's relationship with you for a long time, and he didn't want you to recognize each other."
"No. If he knew that Tianxing was his nephew, there would be no way anyone would take action against Tianxing. You are overthinking." Xia Houzun shook his head and said in a very affirmative tone.
This younger brother of mine is indeed a bit dishonest and has a lot of ambition, but he is not to the point of attacking people with blood ties.
Seeing that Xia Houzun spoke so firmly, Lin Chen understood that there was no point in talking any more, so he simply stopped talking.
In his heart, he was somewhat dissatisfied with Xia Houzun's words. Although he and Xia Houyun had just met today, he felt that Xia Houyun was a ruthless person and might not be able to do such things as murdering blood relatives.
However, he was a little confused. If Xia Houyun really asked Ji Yunting to kill Xiang Tianxing, what was the reason?
Xiang Tianxing cannot threaten him at all.
Lin Chen previously promised Xiang Tianxing that he would send him to see Xia Houzun. Now that the matter has been done, the father and son are reunited and he stays here.
There were some obstacles, so Lin Chen told Xiang Tianxing that he planned to leave the capital of the Great Li Dynasty.
He also wants to seek opportunities elsewhere and has no intention of staying here.
"Brother Long, don't leave in a hurry. Can you stay here for a few more days?" When Xiang Tianxing heard that Lin Chen was leaving, his tone was reluctant and a little uneasy.
Compared to Xia Houzun, whom he had just met, Lin Chen even made him feel more friendly, and staying with Lin Chen made him feel more at ease.
Xia Houzun saw that Xiang Tianxing was somewhat dependent on Lin Chen, so he also tried to persuade him to stay.
Lin Chen pondered for a few seconds, nodded and agreed to stay in the palace for a few more days, but he would leave in a few days.
Xiang Tianxing was so happy that Xia Houzun called a guard and asked him to arrange a room for Lin Chen and take Lin Chen to rest.
Before leaving with the guard, Lin Chen took a look at Xiahou Zun's pale face and said: "Master, there seems to be something wrong with your body. I am a doctor and an alchemist. Do you need me to take a look at it for you?
"
"Thank you for your kindness. However, I know my physical condition. It is mainly due to something going wrong in my practice. Moreover, the alchemist in the palace has found a solution for me. It won't take long for me to recover."
Xia Houzun shook his head and rejected Lin Chen's kindness.
On the one hand, he felt that his body would get better after a while. On the other hand, he also thought that even if Lin Chen was a doctor and alchemist, there was absolutely no way he could compare to the doctors and alchemists in the palace.
Especially the alchemist in the palace was famous throughout the Great Li Dynasty, and was definitely not comparable to Lin Chen.
He judged that Lin Chen's age should not be old, but his strength has reached the perfection of the Tao Shaping Realm. Therefore, in his opinion, even if Lin Chen is also an alchemist, he cannot be that powerful. After all, a person's energy is limited.
of.
At this time, he was anxious to talk to his son, whom he had just met, and was too lazy to waste time with Lin Chen.
When Lin Chen heard this, he left with the guard.
After taking Lin Chen to the room arranged for him, the guard left. Lin Chen sat in the room, carefully thinking about everything that had happened before. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that there might be a mastermind behind Ji Yunting, and that mastermind,
It's probably King Yun.
But why did King Yun want to kill Xiang Tianxing?
For the sake of becoming the head of the Great Li Dynasty?
wrong!
Xiahou Zun is a cultivator in the Hedao realm, and he doesn't look old at all. He must have a long lifespan, and he will probably live longer than King Yun.
With Xiahou Zun around, even without Xiang Tianxing, the position of leader of the Great Li Dynasty would not have come to him.
Just when Lin Chen was deep in thought, a faint voice of a woman calling for help suddenly reached his ears.
"Sir, please let me go. Please don't do this! No! Don't do this..."
…
In a very luxurious room, a fat white middle-aged man in luxurious clothes was pressing a pretty palace maid on the table. The palace maid struggled desperately and begged, but this made the middle-aged man
Even more excited, he tore the clothes on the palace maid's body, trying to pull her off
Strip naked.
"Sir! Please let me go, don't do this!" the palace maid begged, with tears in her eyes.
The middle-aged man tore open the palace maid's coat with a tear, looked at the underwear inside that was similar to a bellyband, licked the corner of his mouth, and said with an excited smile:
"What? Is it possible that, given my status, sleeping with me will wrong you? You should know the consequences of provoking me. Even if I beat you to death now, no one will dare to come to you.
My trouble!"
When the palace maid heard this, a look of despair appeared on her face.
In the entire palace, few people dared to care about the affairs of the person in front of him. Even if his status was not mentioned, just because he was a second-level Dao realm holy alchemist, killing himself would be like crushing an ant.
Simple.
boom!
At this moment, the door was suddenly kicked open and shattered into pieces.
Lin Chen walked in from outside the gate and frowned at the fat middle-aged man. He really didn't expect that there was such a dirty and dirty thing in the palace, and he even encountered it.
The fat middle-aged man was startled. Then, without any panic, he looked at Lin Chen and cursed: "Where did this bitch come from? Who let you in? Get out! Get out of here, don't let me do it."
Kill you!"
Lin Chen frowned and said, "I don't want to talk nonsense with you, so I'll leave her immediately."
The fat middle-aged man laughed in anger. The guy in front of him seemed to have no idea who he was, and he dared to talk to him like this.
.
But that's right, if you knew who you were, you would never dare to kick your own door.
The middle-aged man left the palace maid, not because he was afraid of Lin Chen, but because he planned to teach this creature in front of him a lesson.
Before he could speak, the palace maid straightened her clothes and suddenly looked at Lin Chen with disgust and cursed: "Master Kou told you to get out, didn't you hear?"
She was extremely annoyed. She had finally found an opportunity and was about to seduce Lord Kou. But in the end, such a fool who pretended to be a hero came out and ruined her good deeds!
She simply wanted Lin Chen to die!
"You——" Lin Chen was startled.
The palace maid put her hands on her hips and said scornfully: "What are you, do you think I will fall in love with you if you play this hero-saving trick? You don't even look in the mirror, you are not even worthy of carrying Mr. Kou's shoes!"
There’s nothing self-aware about it!”
Lin Chen's face was full of astonishment, and he quickly understood what was going on. It was not a bully who was trying to force himself on her, but a pair of adulterers. This woman was just acting, so she couldn't be sure how happy she was.
"I heard your cry for help, so I rushed over. Since it's your own choice, I don't want to bother with this matter."
Lin Chen felt disgusted in his heart and did not want to get involved in this kind of thing, so he turned around and left.
"At first glance, he looks like a country bumpkin who has never seen a woman before. He doesn't even understand how to listen to a woman's words backwards!"
The palace maid had a mean smile on her face. In her opinion, Lin Chen had ruined her good deeds, so all the faults naturally fell on Lin Chen.
This guy came to save himself because he just had the idea of a hero saving a beauty and then winning her back. He didn't care what he was. She was a senior female official in the palace, so how could she like him?
She has always felt very disgusted by this kind of toad that wants to eat swan meat and does not know how much it weighs.
"Let's go? I asked you to leave just now, but you didn't. Now it's too late!"
The fat, white middle-aged man flashed and stood in front of Lin Chen, staring at him coldly.
Because of this person's sudden appearance, my original interest was lost. What a short-sighted thing!
