Chapter 456 Indecision
The emperor's words also moved Chu Kangsheng and the eldest princess' hearts. They thought the same as Chu Ruifeng thought.And looking at the emperor's attitude, it seems that he really gave up his original idea.In fact, this is also understandable. Compared with the emperor's body and life, a woman is really insignificant.

Pills are hard to come by, women are easy to get, the emperor is the king of a country, the ruler of the world, what kind of woman do you want?And why bother to go to the point of betrayal for a woman?

Thinking of this, the eldest princess turned her head to persuade Chu Ruifeng, "Feng'er, since your majesty trusts you, why don't you work hard once and go to sea to find those things for your uncle, okay?" In exchange for the safe future of the Chu family, and the smooth marriage of Chu Ruifeng and Qiaoyun, it is worth it.

Like the eldest princess, Chu Kangsheng also felt that the conditions proposed by the emperor were very attractive.Not only can Chu Ruifeng and Qiaoyun be married, but also Chu Ruifeng can be named Zhenhaihou and the general who protects the country.This kind of glory is something that others only dream of.

If the Chu family hadn't relied on the eldest princess these years, it would have been declining day by day. For the helmsman of the Chu family, he naturally didn't want to see such a scene.If Chu Ruifeng was made a Marquis, the Chu family would be like a Duke and a Marquis. No one could refuse such a glorious event.

"Yes, Feng'er, we are the courtiers of Daliao, and we should share the worries of His Majesty. Why don't you go to sea again." Chu Kangsheng also persuaded his son, the key is, the huge temptation of such a high-ranking official and rich salary , is really irresistible.Now that Daliao has unified the world, it is very difficult to make meritorious deeds.With such a good opportunity in front of him, Chu Kangsheng naturally didn't want his son to miss it.

Chu Ruifeng still hesitated, it wasn't because he was too concerned, he always felt that the emperor's attitude changed a bit suddenly.If the emperor sent him away on purpose, and then dealt with the Chu family, what should we do?Although this thought was a bit insidious, Chu Ruifeng was really worried.

"Your Majesty, can Rong Chen go back and think about it before replying to His Majesty?" He needs to think about it carefully, the heart of a king is unpredictable, and it is better not to agree to many things rashly.

The emperor was not surprised by Chu Ruifeng's attitude, so he nodded, "Okay, I will give you time to think about it. After you think it over, you can come to the palace to talk to me at any time. Feng'er, you are my relative. Nephew, I can only trust you. This alchemy is a big matter, and it has a lot to do with it. I really don’t feel at ease handing over this job to others. Think about it carefully and give me an answer as soon as possible.”

The emperor did not force Chu Ruifeng to agree on the spot, but allowed him to go back and think about it, which made the eldest princess and Chu Kangsheng feel relieved.It seems that the emperor attaches great importance to this matter, and there is no conspiracy. If so, he should be able to agree.

The matter has been finished, and the emperor still has a lot of things to deal with. Naturally, the three of Chu Kangsheng couldn't stay any longer, so they left the palace.The three came out of the palace in a smooth manner, and no one was in trouble along the way, so they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Feng'er, it's better to agree to this matter. It may take a little longer to go to the West. If you use this in exchange for your marriage with Qiaoyun, it will be worth it. Not to mention, there are Zhenhaihou and the guards. The title of General of the Kingdom. His Majesty seems to be sincere, otherwise he would never be willing to give up such a reward." On the way, Chu Kangsheng persuaded his son.

Chu Ruifeng nodded, "Father, these sons understand that the son is afraid that there is a fraud in it. If this is His Majesty's plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain, then we will not be worth the loss. You know, when the son goes to sea, he will definitely take most of the people away. , that way, if something really happens in Beijing, I’m afraid there won’t be enough manpower.”

Chu Kangsheng laughed when he heard this, "You are cautious, but don't you underestimate father? Even if His Majesty really has other thoughts, can't father handle it? Although I have not I will lead the army to fight again, but I still have some manpower I can call on, so don’t be afraid.”

This is true. Although Chu Kangsheng has been at home for a few years, he was also a world-renowned Grand Marshal and had a high prestige in the army.Although he has handed over his military power now, it does not affect his prestige in the army. Many generals who lead the army are promoted by Chu Kangsheng.

Chu Ruifeng laughed when he heard this, "That's right, my son has forgotten this level. Since the father said so, the son has no worries in his heart. Let's delay it for two or three days, and then the son will reply when he enters the palace. Your Majesty." He still had to inquire about some things secretly before he could make a decision.

Chu Kangsheng felt normal for his son's cautious attitude.So they didn't say anything else, the father and son rode horses, protected the eldest princess in the carriage behind, and went all the way back to the princess mansion.After returning to the mansion smoothly, Chu Ruifeng quickly ordered the guards to rest and hide. Since there was nothing wrong in the palace, try not to expose their hands.

Besides, Chu Ruifeng agreed to the emperor to think about it for a few days, and it happened that the Lantern Festival was next, which is also a very important festival, and the people in the capital attach great importance to it.Every Lantern Festival in the capital, the emperor would hold a banquet in the palace and set off fireworks at the same time to celebrate.There are lanterns and festoons everywhere in the city. On the long street outside the imperial city, there are lanterns, and there are also dragon and lion dances, which is very lively.

The atmosphere of the Lantern Festival was very lively among the people in the capital. In order to make Qiaoyun happy, Chu Ruifeng also took Qiaoyun out to play on the night of the fifteenth day.

"Yun'er, the Lantern Festival in the capital is more lively than Haining, right? I'll tell you, don't stay in the mansion all the time, come out and have a good time, and you will feel better." Chu Ruifeng dragged Qiaoyun on the long street Wander casually on the street, and always pay attention to protecting Qiaoyun, so that the crowded pedestrians will not touch her.

Qiaoyun has been depressed these few days because of her marriage, and Chu Ruifeng coaxed her out after spending a lot of time.Looking at the colorful scene of fiery trees, silver flowers, and the joyful look on the pedestrian's face, Qiao Yun's heavy heart also somewhat eased.

"Siyuan, do you really want to go to sea according to the emperor's words? The Western Ocean is so far away, and it may be twice as long as the Southern Ocean. How long will it take to come back? It's too long, and I will miss you." Qiao Yun Leaning beside Chu Ruifeng, he said in a low voice.

Chu Ruifeng had already told Qiao Yun about the emperor's call, although Qiao Yun also felt that this was a turning point and a chance for them to be together in a fair and honest manner.But when Chu Ruifeng wanted to go to sea for more than a year or even two years, Qiao Yun felt a little uncomfortable.

"Otherwise, why don't you take me out to sea together? I don't want to be separated from you." Qiaoyun knew that this request was a bit embarrassing, but she really couldn't bear to leave Chu Ruifeng.
