"Yeah, that's great!" Xiaoyi was not polite to Emperor Mingwu. He grabbed the cup of Guiyan Qinghao and drank it. This time he knew how to taste it carefully and did not drink it all at once. Although he drank It took a little slower, but within a few seconds, the cup quickly bottomed out again, "Delicious!"
Ye Chen on the side couldn't help but smile bitterly. Xiaoyi drinking tea was like Zhu Bajie eating ginseng fruit - he didn't know the taste. WwW. QuANbEn-XiAoShUo. cO
After a while, both Ye Chen and Ah Li's teacups also reached the bottom. Ye Chen only felt that his whole body was extremely warm. This turtle rock green hair was indeed a good thing to warm the meridians!
A burst of laughter like silver bells came from the distance, and some children were playing and playing in the imperial garden, creating a warm and peaceful scene. Among these children, there are several girls, about fourteen or fifteen years old, who have already become slim and graceful.
Emperor Mingwu looked over there, showing a rare calm and peaceful smile.
"Are those His Majesty's children?" Ye Chen followed Emperor Mingwu's gaze.
"Yes, I have sixteen children in total. The eldest is fifteen years old and the youngest is just one month old." Emperor Mingwu said with a slight smile.
Emperor Mingwu did not have children until he was in his thirties. For a powerful man like Emperor Mingwu who lived a long life, it was not too late to have children in his thirties.
The royal family is different, they actually have sixteen children.
"Among my children, Zhi'er is already fifteen years old. She is now a tall and graceful woman. She is definitely the most beautiful woman in the imperial capital. Ye Chen, I will be a matchmaker and betroth Zhi'er to you, okay?" Mingwu The emperor looked at Ye Chen and said.
"Your Majesty is joking!" Ye Chen did not take this sentence seriously.
"I'm not joking." Emperor Mingwu said seriously. Although Ye Chen has no official status and the Ye family is not a big family, Ye Chen has shown enough talent and is definitely qualified to marry a princess.
"No, no, no, this won't work." Ye Chen realized that Emperor Mingwu was not joking, and said urgently with a red face.
"Could it be that Ye Chen thinks Zhi'er is not good enough for you?" Emperor Mingwu said with a serious expression.
"No, I, Ye Chen, am not worthy of Princess Zhi'er." Ye Chen said. After a moment of embarrassment, he finally calmed down and joked that he would marry a princess he didn't even know as his wife. This How can it be? A marriage without feelings will not be happy. Emperor Mingwu said that he would betroth a princess to himself, which was probably to win over her. It would be okay to refuse.
"Ye Chen is being humble. Among the young generation, no one is more qualified than you..." Emperor Mingwu was talking when he was interrupted by a rapid knock on the table. He followed the sound to see When I went there, I saw Ahri with an angry expression on his face and tapping his paws on the table.
The two people chatted happily and left her alone! If Ye Chen dares to marry that princess, Ah Li thought of this, and showed his sharp paws with a "swish" sound. He placed his right front paw on the table, slowly pulled it back, and with a "sizzle" sound, the stone table There were three deep claw marks and many stone chips left on it.
Seeing this, Ye Chen looked at Emperor Mingwu and spread his hands helplessly.
Emperor Mingwu's face stiffened, he laughed and said, "That's all, we won't mention it." After all, he was the head of a country, so he couldn't lower his status and force the princess to Ye Chen.
Seeing that Emperor Mingwu didn't mention this, Ye Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and Ahri's expression softened a little.
"Ye Chen, I still have something to ask for." Emperor Mingwu restrained his smile and said solemnly.
"I wonder what your Majesty wants?" Ye Chen asked. The marriage proposal for the princess just now was probably a sign of goodwill. The next step is to get down to business.
Emperor Mingwu turned his head and ordered: "Fuquan, go and call Xiang'er over."
She couldn't be a princess again, Ye Chen couldn't help but think.
After a while, a little boy of eleven or twelve years old with a tiger-like head came over. He was wearing a thin shirt. When he walked, he was as powerful as a little adult, which made him look a little cute. ..., to read the full text, please go to Xiao-Shuo.net, which is faster and more complete.
"Father." The little boy said respectfully when he saw Emperor Mingwu.
Emperor Mingwu touched the little boy's head, looked at Ye Chen and said: "His name is Yin Xiang, he is my fifth son, and he is the most talented one among his many brothers."
Ye Chen was a little confused. Why did Emperor Mingwu tell him this
Emperor Mingwu looked a little sad on his face and sighed slightly: "You may be a little confused as to why I am telling you this. I want to ask you something. If I die and the Xiwu Empire is destroyed, please You take care of Xiang'er and leave a trace of blood for our Yin family. I don't ask for his return to the country, I just hope that he can live peacefully like an ordinary person."
"Father." Yin Xiang didn't know why his father said this, tears welling up in his eyes.
Ye Chen was shocked. Emperor Mingwu's words had the flavor of his last words. It stands to reason that although the Xiwu Empire has declined, it doesn't seem to be that serious at the moment. Isn't it right that the country has not been in danger of annihilation in recent years
"Your Majesty's words are serious. Your Majesty has a prosperous Spring and Autumn Period." Ye Chen said.
Emperor Mingwu interrupted Ye Chen's words and said with a carefree smile: "Actually, that is not necessarily the case. Although the Xiwu Empire seems to be sustainable on the surface, there are actually undercurrents. In two months, the forbidden land will be opened. "
"To open the Forbidden Territory, you only need to send twenty masters above the tenth level to enter. Your Majesty should still have many tenth-level masters and earthly masters in your hands, so they should be able to tide over the difficulties. "Ye Chen said, during the battle on the Lake Island, Ye Chen saw that there were still many masters under Emperor Mingwu.
"Indeed, in the past hundreds of years, countless elite patriots have been killed and injured in the forbidden area. Each time, the entire army was wiped out, causing the talent of the Seibu Empire to wither. If we continue to send ministers to the forbidden area, I am afraid that it will chill the hearts of all my ministers. This time I plan to go to the forbidden area in person!" Emperor Mingwu said resolutely.
"Father..." Yin Xiang cried, wanting to say something, but didn't know how to say it.
"Why would your Majesty take the risk himself?" Ye Chen said in surprise. He didn't expect Emperor Mingwu to have such a plan.
"In this Seibu Empire, no one is more suitable to go to the Forbidden Land than me. The Seibu Empire has lost so many games in a row in the Forbidden Land. There must be one person who can turn the tide, either life or death. Although I am the so-called Ninth Five-Year Plan He is an honorable person, but in fact he is just an ordinary person. When an ordinary man is angry, his blood will be splashed three feet. The country has been inherited for thousands of years and cannot be bullied by the barbarians!" Emperor Mingwu was slightly agitated, but remained calm and composed.
Ye Chen understood that once a person like Emperor Mingwu made a decision, he would never change it. Emperor Mingwu's words touched Ye Chen and made him silent.
"I succeeded to the throne of Mingwu for ten years. At that time, the Xiwu Empire was still in chaos, and rebellions were everywhere. Although I was the prince, I also traveled to various counties and saw too many people's sufferings. In troubled times, human lives were lost. Just like grass and grass, there are even human tragedies of exchanging children and eating them. The rebel army is like locusts crossing the border, even eating people like livestock.
After taking the throne, I worked hard to rectify the Seibu Empire and massacred millions of rebels in one year. Anyone who caused chaos would be killed! I wiped out many princes and nine tribes, killed countless masters, and many people from the same clan were killed by me myself. Many people say that I am a tyrant. I hold a butcher knife in my hand and smile. So what if I am a tyrant? I only believe in my martial arts! Even though millions of wronged souls are haunting me, I still have a clear conscience! "A momentum was released from Emperor Mingwu, and the fierce thoughts of killing made Ye Chen feel shocked. When he fought alone against the two sect masters of Taiyi Sword Sect and Tiankuixing Sect, Emperor Mingwu did not Using all his strength, people like Dongmen Yingyang cannot compare with Emperor Mingwu. ..., To read the full text, please go to Xiao-Shuo.net, which is faster and more complete.
Ye Chen had only heard that Emperor Mingwu killed many people before, but after meeting Emperor Mingwu himself, he felt that he was not as violent as the legend said. Now that he heard Emperor Mingwu's words with his own ears, he felt something else in his heart. In such troubled times, it is impossible to deter the heroes without drastic measures, and some excesses are inevitable.
"If the Seibu Empire falls into the hands of the barbarians, the lives of the people will be devastated, even worse than during the war. The last battle of the Seibu Empire must be ended by me, Mingwu, even if the entire Yin family is destroyed. ! The only thing I can't let go is my wife and children. They all say that the royal family is ruthless, but in fact it is not the case. People are not grass and trees, how can they be ruthless? Once I Mingwu dies in battle, the queen will lead a group of concubines to die. As for those children , it can only be said that they were born at the wrong time, some people died, and the rest can live. This is a law that no one can escape." Emperor Mingwu said in a low voice, looking at the children playing in the distance, his eyes There was a flash of warmth in it.
There was a sense of loneliness and desolation in Emperor Mingwu's body, but even when he made such a decision, he was still very decisive without any hesitation.
"Father, my child is willing to fight and die with you." Yin Xiang cried, tears falling down.
"Haha." Emperor Mingwu smiled lovingly and touched Yin Xiang's head, "Death is easy, but if you want to live, the Yin family must retain a trace of blood."
Although Emperor Mingwu has a lot of criticism, and Ye Chen does not agree with some of Emperor Mingwu's actions, what Emperor Mingwu said still touched Ye Chen's heart. No matter what Emperor Mingwu did, he could be like this It is considered a man to go to the deceased generously. Ye Chen also made some decisions in his heart. After all, the survival of the Xiwu Empire is also related to the safety of the Ye family. Although the Ye family can hide in the valley, can that valley hide for a lifetime
"Please forgive me for not being able to agree." Ye Chen looked at Emperor Mingwu and said.
Emperor Mingwu paused for a moment, then smiled sadly and sighed: "Well, actually I have some selfish motives. The reason why I want to entrust Xiang'er to you is because I think that by following you, Xiang'er may create something new." The achievements have prevented my Yin family from being too depressed. In this case, I can only entrust Xiang'er to Xuanyi Yaozun and send it to the Central Empire to be entrusted to an ordinary family. As for life or death, it depends on His own creation." After saying that, Emperor Mingwu was a little silent and picked up a cup of tea on the table.
"I can't help take care of Yin Xiang, but if His Majesty needs it, I can go to the forbidden area with His Majesty!" Ye Chen said, this is his decision. With his own strength and Emperor Mingwu, as long as If the leader of the Barbarian Kingdom had not come in person, everyone should still be able to get out of the forbidden area alive!
