Chapter 290 Fiefdom
"manor?"

Gu Chen was a little surprised, although he was named Marquis of Wu'an now, it was only a title, unlike Marquis of Ping Xi, it could be said that Gu Chen did not have any real power in his hands.

But now, the imperial court actually wanted to grant him a land, which really surprised Gu Chen.

Eunuch Huang smiled and said: "Master Hou, His Majesty loves you very much. After hearing that you woke up, Your Majesty wanted to come to see you in person, but at that time, His Majesty had just ascended the throne and was busy with affairs, so it has been delayed until now."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Gu Chen said.

Immediately, under the leadership of Eunuch Huang, Gu Chen came to the palace, where he met the former prince and now the emperor, Ji Yuan.

"Report to Your Majesty, the Marquis of Wu'an will see you." An eunuch passed on a message.

Hearing that Gu Chen was coming, Ji Yuan's eyes lit up immediately, and he said, "Quickly declare!"

Soon, Gu Chen walked into the imperial study room, and saw Ji Yuan, who was wearing a dragon robe, with a majestic expression and a high-spirited expression.

The Ji Yuan in front of him is indeed very different from when he was the prince of the Eastern Palace not long ago.

The first prince's rebellion really changed the prince a lot.

It is said that people's personalities will change after experiencing life and death, and it seems that they are right.

"I've seen Your Majesty." Coming closer, Gu Chen cupped his fists and saluted.

Although Ji Yuan ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, it was the prerogative given to Jing Tiansi by Emperor Xia to not kneel before seeing the emperor. Everyone was used to it, and Ji Yuan would not say much.

"Gu Chen, how are you? How is your injury?" Human Emperor Ji Yuan saw Gu Chen, and a deep smile appeared on his majestic face all day long.

His attitude towards Gu Chen was still the same as before, not much changed.

Gu Chen said: "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty is in good health."

"It's good to be cured, there is no root cause of the disease, right?" Ji Yuan asked.

"Return to Your Majesty, no." Gu Chen shook his head.

The new emperor Ji Yuandao: "Gu Chen, on the night that the eldest prince rebelled, you fought desperately, and you could see it. I am not a person who does not appreciate kindness, so there is no need for so much courtesy between you and me. Just treat each other as friends, this is the privilege I give you alone."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Ji Yuan smiled slightly and said, "Do you still like the gift I gave you?"

Gu Chen said: "I have heard that thanks to Your Majesty, my injury has recovered so quickly, and my martial arts cultivation has improved a step further."

"You don't need to thank me, you deserve all of this." Ji Yuandao: "Actually, I wanted to see you some time ago, but I have just been enthroned and I am too busy, so I haven't been able to get away."

"Of course, thanks to you, I was able to ascend the throne smoothly." Ji Yuan looked at Gu Chen with a smile.

A country cannot be without a king for a day. Now that Emperor Xia is missing and his life and death are unknown, everyone in the world knows it. It is impossible for the throne to remain vacant all the time.

"Your Majesty called me over this time, why?" Gu Chen asked.

"Sit down first." Ji Yuan ordered someone to give Gu Chen a seat, and then said, "I called you here this time because I want to discuss the fiefdom with you."

The fief means that Gu Chen holds real power and can participate in the country's taxation. This is not a trivial matter.

"I intend to give you the land of Yan, but I don't know what you want?"

"Yandi?" Eunuch Huang on the side was a little surprised when he heard the words.

Yandi, located in Dongzhou, is the last dynasty of Daxia, the ancestral land of the royal family of the Great Yan Dynasty.

It is a rare treasure land with beautiful scenery and pleasant climate, with a permanent population of [-] households.

Eunuch Huang also never thought that His Majesty would be so grand, without saying a word, he awarded the Land of Yan to Gu Chen.

Not to mention other things, the annual tax alone is enough to make the Gu family earn a lot of money, and they will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives.

Gu Chen also knew about Yandi, he never thought that Ji Yuan would reward him with Yandi, he pondered for a moment, and said: "Your Majesty, isn't this reward a bit heavy?"

Ji Yuan smiled and said: "Is it heavy? I feel lighter instead! If it weren't for the chaos in the world, I would actually have a better place for you, but under the current situation, Yandi is already the best choice. I'm afraid you'll hate me."

"This……"

Seeing that Gu Chen was still hesitating, Ji Yuan's complexion darkened, and he pretended to be angry and said, "Why, in your eyes, my life is so cheap, worth only so little?"

"Okay, since Your Majesty is so persistent, I would like to thank Your Majesty for your kindness." Gu Chen stood up and saluted.

"As I said, there is no need to be so polite, just be casual between you and me." Ji Yuan said.

"Okay." Gu Chen nodded.

"Not long ago, I ordered someone to build a mansion for you in Yandi. You set off from Tiandu these few days. When you arrive, the mansion must have been built. You can also bring your family, you The second uncle's family went to see it, and it was like a tour." Ji Yuan said slowly with a smile on his lips.

When he was with Gu Chen, everything else was casual except for the address.

Afterwards, Gu Chen and the new emperor Ji Yuan talked for a while. After having lunch in the palace, Gu Chen left here. He went to Wang Yan's home and paid homage to Wang Yan.

After leaving Wang Yan's house, Gu Chen went to Liang Guo Gong's mansion again, met Lu Xinlan, paid homage to Liang Guo Gong, and then visited Song Yu.

After this trip, by the time Gu Chen returned to Gu's residence, it was already evening.

After returning, Gu Chen told his second uncle Gu Chengfeng's family the news of his fiefdom.

"What?! Dalang, you have a fief?"

Gu Chengfeng obviously knew the difference between those who have a fief and those who don't, he looked shocked, and said: "It seems too... Your Majesty now really values ​​you, and you didn't waste that day in vain. It's a fight."

For an old man like Gu Chengfeng, when it comes to His Majesty, he is still used to the former Emperor Xia, and sometimes he will inevitably say the wrong thing.

"Yandi, I heard it's a good place. It seems to be near the sea, right?" Aunt Xu Qing'e said.

"The sea?" Gu Qingyan's beautiful eyes lit up when she heard the words, and she said, "I've grown up so much, I've never seen the sea before, brother, can I go with you?"

Aunt Xu Qing'e also looked at Gu Chen longingly, obviously, even she was a little moved.

At this time, Gu Chengfeng frowned and shouted: "You two women, don't make trouble by the side, Yandi is far away in Dongzhou, there is a distance from the sky, if you take the two of you, I don't know how long it will be wasted on the road. "

"Is that so..." Gu Qingyan sighed slightly with a look of disappointment on her delicate and pretty face when she heard this.

Gu Chen looked at his aunt and cousin, the mother and daughter couldn't hide their loneliness. Seeing this, Gu Chen smiled and said, "Maybe Second Uncle can spare some time?"

Gu Chengfeng was a little surprised, and said, "Da Lang, what do you want to do?"

"Let's go to Yandi together as a family. It's just for fun. After all, Auntie and Qingyan have never been out of Tiandu, right?"

"Really, big brother, can I really go?" Hearing that she could go out of the sky, Gu Qingyan was immediately extremely excited, her beautiful eyes sparkled, and she stared at Gu Chen without blinking.

Gu Chengfeng frowned, and said: "This... time is fine, but Dongzhou is quite far from Shenzhou. Your aunt and Qingyan are two women who travel so far, can they persist?"

"Don't worry, we're fine." At this moment, Xu Qing'e and Gu Qingyan's mother and daughter spoke in unison. After they finished speaking, they looked at each other and smiled. They were extremely delicate and beautiful, just like two sisters.

Even Gu Chen was sincerely envious of his second uncle Gu Chengfeng's blessing, not to mention such a beautiful wife, but also such a beautiful daughter.

The reason why he agreed, Gu Chen also has his own considerations, now with his reputation in the world, his every move will be watched by countless people, if Gu Chen goes to Dongzhou alone, it is obvious that he has a mission, The enemy is likely to be suspicious.

Qin Wu asked him to investigate secretly, not to scare the snake away. In this case, Gu Chen found a reason to go to Dongzhou on the grounds of playing and exploring the territory. Although he would still be noticed by interested people, his vigilance would inevitably not be greatly improved. reduce.

Of course, more importantly, he saw that his aunt Xu Qing'e and his younger sister Gu Qingyan yearned for Yandi. Even Gu Chengfeng who was against it, in fact, Gu Chen also knew that his second uncle wanted to go there.

"Since that's the case, it's settled. We will set off early tomorrow morning and head to Yandi."

Gu Chen said, looked at Gu Chengfeng, and said, "Second Uncle, Yu Daowei, do you need me to help you talk?"

"Need not."

Gu Chengfeng waved his hand. With Gu Chen's fame now, Gu Chengfeng has become a celebrity in Yudaowei, and his status has risen accordingly. He wants to ask for leave. It couldn't be easier, and the commander of Yudaowei will readily agree.

Immediately, everyone packed up their things tonight. After all, they had to spend a long time on the road. Aunt Xu Qing'e and younger sister Gu Qingyan were traveling far for the first time, so they packed up until late at night.

When they woke up the next morning, both mother and daughter had panda eyes and were extremely sleepy.

Fortunately, with Gu Chen and Gu Chengfeng around, the second uncle personally spent his inner energy and entered the bodies of the mother and daughter, and their expressions immediately became more energetic.

"set off!"

With an order, the carriage moved forward slowly. This time, only the maid Xiaoyu and a coachman followed Gu Chen and the others to Yandi.

After all, the Gu Mansion in Tiandu had to leave someone to guard it and clean the dust every day.

As for the guards, with Gu Chen here, why would he need a guard?

Soon, the carriage drove out of Tiandu slowly, and half a month passed.

At first, just after coming out of Tiandu, Gu Qingyan and the maid Xiaoyu were very curious about everything, poking their heads out of the carriage from time to time, looking to the left and then to the left, if it wasn't for Gu Chengfeng's repeated orders, Gu Qingyan would have jumped out of the carriage from time to time, admiring Various scenery along the way went.

However, when the time passed slowly and reached No. 13 days, because during this period of time all food, drink, housing and transportation were in the carriage, aunt Xu Qing'e, younger sister Gu Qingyan, and maid Xiaoyu all looked sluggish.

Both Gu Chen and Gu Chengfeng were warriors, so they were naturally fine.

As for the coachman, he has long been used to the fatigue of traveling and traveling, and the same is true.

"I have already said, I don't want you to come, you just want to come, and you can't stand it after less than half the distance. What will you two do next?"

Gu Chengfeng said yes, but he continued to transfer the internal energy in his body to his wife and daughter, and the complexions of the mother and daughter gradually improved.

Seeing this, Gu Chen flicked his finger, and a finger punched into the maid Xiaoyu's body, and Xiaoyu's complexion instantly returned to rosy.

"Thank you, Da Lang." Xiaoyu blushed pretty and said softly.

"Brother, you don't care if I'm okay or not, my father's photo is much worse than yours." Gu Qingyan's pretty face was pale, and she looked at Gu Chen as if asking for help.

Gu Chengfeng's face darkened when he heard this, he snorted lightly, but he didn't say anything.

After all, nowadays, Gu Chen's cultivation is indeed far superior to his.

When Gu Chen saw this, a smile appeared in his eyes, he flicked his fingers, and immediately two fingers penetrated into the bodies of his aunt Xu Qing'e and his younger sister Gu Qingyan.

The complexions of the two of them also instantly improved.

"Big brother is still amazing." Gu Qingyan smiled like a flower, very bright, and once again regained her previous vivacity.

When Xu Qing'e heard this, she pursed her lips and chuckled, even she thought so.

Gu Chengfeng turned his head to the side, his face darkened, and he didn't speak.

At this time, suddenly, a feeling of heart palpitations came, especially for ordinary people Xu Qing'e, Gu Qingyan and Xiaoyu, their bodies began to tremble involuntarily, and a deep fear emerged from the deepest part of their hearts .

Gu Chengfeng's complexion changed instantly, and his eyes immediately turned to Gu Chen.

Gu Chen frowned. He saw, not far away, a vigorous figure standing there with a long knife on his back.

This sense of oppression and aura turned out to be a martial arts master with a perfect hundred-aperture realm.

The person who came was the master of Tiandaomen, Yang Ling!
