Chapter 148 The Royal Family's Engagement Dinner

"Dugu Bo, did you ever announce that you will step down as a guest minister of the royal family and disassociate yourself from my royal family?"

In the imperial study room, Emperor Xue Ye suddenly asked.

"This is not."

Qian Renxue pretending to be Xue Qinghe shook his head, and said: "Dugu Bo should still be grateful for the favor of my Tiandou royal family, but if we conflict with Ziwei Palace, he will definitely side with Zhou Chen. After all..."

"After all, Zhou Chen is his grandson-in-law."

Emperor Xue Ye smiled wryly, and said in an almost helpless tone: "The female titled Douluo, Dugu Bo, and the Xuanwu clan are all from Ziwei Palace..."

"Father, there is also the Jiuxin Begonia family. If you choose between the royal family and Zhou Chen, I will definitely choose her son-in-law."

Qian Renxue added mercilessly.

"Hi~"

Emperor Xue Ye couldn't help but gasped, he didn't think about it, he didn't realize that there were so many powerful families that the Heaven Dou Empire relied on were Zhou Chen's people.

In other words, to offend Zhou Chen alone is to offend Dugu Bo, Jiuxin Haitang and Xuanwu clan that originally belonged to the Heaven Dou Empire at the same time.

It's really scary to think about it carefully.

Seeing that Xue Ye was overwhelmed by the power of Ziwei Palace, Qian Renxue, who had evil intentions, said while the iron was hot: "Father, we must make friends with Zhou Chen, otherwise the empire will show signs of instability."

Emperor Xue Ye nodded, agreeing with Xue Qinghe's point of view, but still hesitantly said: "Qinghe, you are right, but because of Xue Beng, we have already turned against Zhou Chen. If we want to restore this relationship, I am afraid it will be very difficult. difficult."

"It's not difficult."

Qian Renxue raised her head and said solemnly: "We will marry sister Xue Ke to Zhou Chen according to the original plan, and the two will become a family, and the relationship will naturally be restored."

Hearing this, Xue Ye's face immediately turned ugly.

Zhou Chen threatened to kill the prince and extorted 300 million gold soul coins from the royal family, but the royal family sent the princess to the door behind him, and reconciled with Zhou Chen by licking his face...

If this matter gets out, where will the royal family's face be put?
Wouldn't the reputation accumulated by the royal family for thousands of years be destroyed?
"Royal father, it's better to leave this matter to my son. My son has a way, which can not only preserve the reputation of my royal family, but also win over Zhou Chen."

Qian Renxue said swearingly.

"Then I'll leave it to you, Qinghe."

Seeing Xue Qinghe's full confidence, Emperor Xue Ye's face softened a little, and he couldn't help but feel a burst of relief in his heart.

My eldest son seems to be no worse than the second son who has passed away in terms of ability, and the Heaven Dou Empire can be regarded as a successor...

three days later.

In the center of Tiandou City, near the Imperial Palace.

A huge mansion covering an area of ​​hundreds of mu was extremely lively and full of voices.

This mansion originally belonged to the second prince Xue Luochuan.After the second prince was poisoned to death, this place has been vacant for a long time.

Today, the mansion suddenly became lively, naturally because the mansion ushered in a new owner, Zhou Chen.

That's right, after Qian Renxue obtained the authorization from Emperor Xue Ye, she gave Zhou Chen a mansion worth millions of gold soul coins as soon as she made a move.

Not only that, in order to win over Zhou Chen, the royal family wanted to give Zhou Chen the title of duke, but Zhou Chen refused.

Just kidding, he, Zhou Chen, has no interest in being inferior to others, whether it is in substance or in name, the traverser is so awesome that he doesn't explain it!

He would only consider it unless Xue Ye gave him the throne.

At this time, Zhou Chen was in the courtyard of the new mansion, supervising the servants in the palace, and moving heavy black boxes one by one into the secret room of the mansion.

A total of three hundred boxes contained three million gold soul coins.

To be able to raise 300 million gold soul coins in cash within three days, it has to be said that although the royal family of the Heaven Dou Empire is rare, they still have a lot of background in all aspects.

At this moment, a clear voice sounded, "Zhou Chen, I am not late."

Zhou Chen looked back, only to see Xue Qinghe in casual clothes, no, it should be Qian Renxue, accompanied by a beautiful blonde girl, walking over.

The girl was Xue Ke, and Zhou Chen remembered that this girl was his fan and asked him for an autograph.

"His Royal Highness is really a trustworthy person, three days will be three days without any delay."

Zhou Chen does not hesitate to appreciate those who can bring him benefits.

Hearing this, Qian Renxue smiled and said: "To be honest, you have to thank Xue Ke. If she hadn't been in a hurry, I might not have given you the 300 million gold soul coins within three days."

"Oh?"

Zhou Chen was a little confused, completely unclear about the situation.

What do you mean?
Xue Ke, a fan, has become so fanatical that she gave Zhou Chen her own money?
Glancing at Xue Ke, at this moment, Xue Ke's face was blushing and charming, and when she saw Zhou Chen's gaze, she lowered her head in shame.

This made Zhou Chen even more confused about the situation.

What he didn't know was that the reason Xue Ke urged her elder brother and father to send the 300 million gold soul coins over quickly was because Xue Ye told her that the money was her dowry.

That's right, the 300 million gold soul coins sent by Qian Renxue were not nominal compensation at all, but Princess Xue Ke's dowry.

It's just that Zhou Chen doesn't know it yet.

Qian Renxue smiled and said: "This girl Xue Ke has always admired you, Zhou Chen, you come to the palace, and we will sit together in a few days."

"Okay, go when you have time."

Zhou Chen declined politely.

"No, this is a formal invitation, you must come."

There was a flash of light on Qian Renxue's wrist, and a red post appeared in her hand.

"This is an invitation card for a palace banquet hosted by my father. Three nights later, the banquet will officially begin. You must give me face."

After finishing speaking, Qian Renxue handed the invitation to Zhou Chen.

And Xue Ke on the side couldn't help but said at this time: "Zhou Chen, you must come."

"Okay, since His Royal Highness and the Princess have kindly invited you, I will definitely be there on time."

Zhou Chen nodded.

As the saying goes, people are soft-spoken and short-handed. The royal family gave me a mansion worth a million gold soul coins, and sent me 300 million gold soul coins as promised. If I refused to even go to a banquet, it would be too embarrassing up.

Seeing Zhou Chen agreeing, Qian Renxue smiled and said: "Then I will wait for your boss. Don't bother me, little sister, we should go back."

Saying that, Qian Renxue took Xue Ke's hand, and the two walked away quickly as if fleeing.

This made Zhou Chen baffled.

Of course, if Zhou Chen knew that this banquet was actually an engagement banquet set up by the royal family to force him to marry Xue Ke, he might not be surprised.

That's right, according to Qian Renxue and Emperor Xue Ye's plan, at the banquet three days later, Emperor Xue Ye will publicly announce the engagement of Zhou Chen and Xue Ke in front of all the nobles and soul master families of Heaven Dou City.

And the 300 million gold soul coins used as compensation will also be advertised by the royal family as an unprecedentedly expensive princess dowry.

At that time, in public, as long as Zhou Chen doesn't want to completely turn against the Tiandou royal family, he has to hold his nose and accept the marriage.

However, what Emperor Xue Ye and Qian Renxue didn't know was that the trap they set up was superfluous, completely overestimating Zhou Chen's character and integrity.

In fact, as long as the royal family directly asked Zhou Chen whether he would like to be engaged to Princess Xue Ke, it would be fine, and there was no need to make so many tricks.

Because Zhou Chen, who has always been good at eating soft food, and eating hard food hard, will definitely not refuse.
