Tortoise of the Great Desolation

Chapter 512
Chaoge sky.

Tong Tian, ​​who had just returned from the chaos, looked at Zi Shou who had left from Sanxiao's courtyard, and his face looked a little better.

If he came back and found that his cheap apprentice was harassing his precious apprentice, he was really afraid that he couldn't help chopping him up with a sword.

Now it seems that this kid is quite honest, at least much better than that dead tortoise—in order to make himself feel better, Tongtian selectively ignored the fact that this is actually a person.

On the other hand, after Zishou took Fei Zhongyouhun away from Sanxiao and returned to the palace, before he could recover, he received the order from Emperor Yi to announce him to enter the palace.

After receiving this order, Zishou was a little strange.

Nothing, what did his cheap father let him enter the palace for?
You know, even though he is the eldest son of this cheap old man, this cheap old man has not really cared about him since he was a child.

Of course, it's weird to be weird, but you still have to enter the palace.

Therefore, after ordering Fei Zhongyouhun to go back and find someone to help Yunxiao repair the courtyard wall, Zishou went into the palace.

Royal Palace, Feiyun Pavilion.

If Zishou could see the current scene in Feiyun Pavilion, he would probably know why Emperor Yi let him enter the palace.

At this time, there were no waiters in Feiyun Pavilion, only two old men sitting inside pushing cups and changing glasses.

Among these two old men, the old man wearing the Xuanniao emperor's robe is naturally the current king of the big business, Emperor Yi.

And the old man sitting opposite to Emperor Yi was none other than Jiang Huanchu, the leader of the eight hundred princes in the world today.

"Huan Chu, how long has it been since you and I had a drink together?"

After drinking for three rounds, Emperor Yi put down the wine cup, turned his eyes to the scenery outside the pavilion, and said with emotion.

"Back to the king, the last time I and the king drank was not long after the king became the throne, and the minister helped the king defeat Xibohou. After that, the minister was named Dongbohou by the king, guarding the east for the great merchants, and has been It's been more than twenty years."

"It's been more than 20 years." Hearing what Jiang Huanchu said, Emperor Yi couldn't help but sigh.

When he was still the prince of Dashang, Dashang's country was already a little unstable, especially Xiqi in the west, under the leadership of Ji Chang, constantly annexed the surrounding princes, and already had a plan to usurp Tangjiangshan. Stance.

After he succeeded to the throne, Xiqi really rebelled.

And the reason why he was able to defeat Ji Chang and stabilize the Dashang's country was that he himself was wise enough, but Jiang Huanchu's contribution was also indispensable.

It can be said that without Jiang Huanchu's help, even if he could have defeated Ji Chang, Da Shang would have been greatly injured.

It was precisely because of Jiang Huanchu's assistance that Ji Chang surrendered decisively when nothing could be done, allowing Da Shang to keep his vitality.

However, although Ji Chang's surrender at the beginning allowed Da Shang to preserve his vitality, it also preserved his strength for Xiqi.

Even, in order to appease Ji Chang, he married all his younger sisters to Ji Chang.

However, Di Yi also knew that if a person like Ji Chang had a chance to usurp Tang Jiangshan, then he would never soften his heart because of this in-law relationship.

When he was in power, he was sure that he could hold Ji Chang down, but now he is old.

After Long Yu dies, can Zi Shou, the heir to the throne, hold Ji Chang down?

These are all things he needs to consider.

That's why he secretly summoned Jiang Huanchu to Chaoge without many people knowing.

"I'm afraid the king summoned his ministers to Beijing not just to have a drink with them?"

Looking at the weeping Emperor Yi, Jiang Huanchu drank his wine and asked.

Withdrawing his gaze from outside the pavilion, Emperor Yi looked at Jiang Huanchu and said slowly: "Huanchu, my time is running out."

"How could it be?" Emperor Yi's words made Jiang Huanchu's face change drastically: "The king is a few years younger than the subject, how could it be."

Waving his hand, Emperor Yi said lightly: "Gu's body is clear to me. I fought everywhere when Gu took the throne. Although he stabilized Dashang's country, he also left irreparable dark wounds on his body. Living to this day, I have been blessed with a great fate. However, I do not regret it. I can exchange my ten years of life for 20 years of stability in Tangjiangshan. Liezong explained."

"It's just that although Gu is not afraid of death, there is one thing that Gu can hardly let go of even if he dies."

Emperor Yi's words made Jiang Huanchu very sad, but he also understood that now is not the time to be sad.

If Di Yi called him over at such a time, he must have something important to entrust to him.

Therefore, burying the grief in his heart, Jiang Huanchu thought for a while, and then understood what Emperor Yi meant: "The king is worried, could it be?"

Although Jiang Huanchu didn't say that name, Di Yi and him both knew what he wanted to say.

Slowly nodded, Emperor Yi said: "Huan Chu, without your help back then, it can be said that Gu was not sure of defeating him at all. However, even though he surrendered at that time, you and I both know that Xiqi's national strength has not been damaged. And it has become stronger and stronger over the years. When Gu is in power, he is not afraid, but if Gu is gone."

"Your Majesty, don't worry, if the third prince succeeds to the throne, I will do my best to assist the third prince to keep the great merchants safe." Before Emperor Yi could finish speaking, Jiang Huanchu said directly.

Seeing Jiang Huanchu's innocent appearance, Di Yi's eyes showed a hint of relief.

"Huan Chu, I have never doubted your loyalty to the big business, but I still want a guarantee. I heard that you have a daughter, and I want my son to marry her as a concubine, and he will succeed in his life. Queen of Great Merchants."

"After all, although Gu can trust you, Zi Shou may not trust you. If Zi Shou harbors suspicions against you in the future, even if you are loyal, it will be useless. Therefore, Gu did this so that Zi Shou could trust you more."

"Your Majesty's words, I will naturally obey. Besides, being able to marry the third prince is also a blessing for my daughter." Regarding Emperor Yi's words, Jiang Huanchu agreed without the slightest hesitation.

Seeing Jiang Huanchu's response, Di Yi finally showed a gratified smile on his face.

At this moment, a waiter came in from outside the pavilion, came to Emperor Yi and whispered: "Your Majesty, the third prince has arrived."

"Let him come over." Turning his head and instructing the waiter lightly, Emperor Yi turned to Jiang Huanchu and said, "Since Huanchu you agreed, Gu also called Zishou over, let you two future Weng Let’s meet the son-in-law first today.”

Hearing this, Jiang Huanchu also said with a smile: "I have heard that the third prince is born with supernatural powers and is extraordinary in martial arts. Today is just a chance to meet him."
