Supreme Divine Book

Old General Xi Long drank all the wine in his glass excitedly.

The throne room echoed with low and deep praises, and the officers of the civil and military started whispering to each other.

"This old general Xi Long is Xi Shaocheng's father. He is an old official from two dynasties." Qiao Feiyan introduced her to Han Chen in a soft voice.

Han Chen nodded, from the attitude of the emperor towards him, it could be seen how high the status of the dragons were. Judging from Xi Shaocheng's age, it was likely that Xi Long had also become a child in his later years.

Qiao Hongyu held up his empty wine cup, and the servant beside him carefully filled it up.

"The person to drink my second cup of wine is General Zhao Bo."

Everyone's eyes then turned to look at a thirty year old middle-aged man. The man was also dressed like a general, with a square face and a beard. However, his face was slightly pale, as if he was injured.

Zhao Bo immediately stood up and cupped his fists as he bowed: "Your Majesty, this lowly general does not dare to accept your toast."

"Why?" Qiao Hongyu asked.

"Cough, cough!" Zhao Bo coughed twice, his face was filled with guilt. In the battle for communication with the Black Knight Empire, this lowly general had suffered defeat and had failed to live up to the expectations of His Majesty and the entire imperial court. This lowly general is ashamed, this lowly general is terrified. "

Qiao Hongyu's expression did not change at all, and his imposing voice sounded out. There was no such thing as a victorious general. Victory and defeat were commonplace matters. General Zhao Bo, you have been protecting the borders of the country all year round. How can you not be afraid of this cup of wine? "

"Your Majesty, I thank the Lord for his grace." Zhao Bo's eyes turned red, he clenched his fists, as though the injuries on his body had been healed.

"Hur hur, alright." Zhao Bo also drank the second cup of wine.

Then, Qiao Hongyu raised the third cup and scanned across the officials present. This goblet of wine was to the soldiers who were about to rush to the battlefield. Congratulations in advance on the successful return of the Grand Seal Empire's battle exchange. "

Return victorious!

Qiao Hongyu drank the wine in his cup and all the officials in the palace stood up and shouted together, "We return victorious!"

Han Chen was secretly amazed, the aura of this monarch was indeed extraordinary. Even as an outsider, he could not help but feel his blood boil.

Just then, Xi Shaocheng who was dressed in his majestic golden armor suddenly walked out, reaching the center of the hall, he knelt down on one knee and said with a loud voice.

"Your Majesty, this general has something to say."

"Speak up if you have anything to say to me." Qiao Hongyu raised his hand slightly, indicating for the other party to rise.

"Thank you, your majesty." Xi Shaocheng stood up, and immediately looked towards Qiao Feiyan who was seated beside Han Chen, and said with a sincere tone. Your Majesty, this general humbly requests that you grant me the right to marry your highness the princess. "

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM! Once these words were spoken, the throne room was instantly in an uproar. The hearts of everyone present were shocked, each and every one of them revealed a look of astonishment.

Qiao Feiyan couldn't help but stand up, "What nonsense are you spouting? What a joke. "

"I'm not joking." Xi Shaocheng answered sincerely: "Princess, I am sincere to you, although I know that my identity is not worthy of yours, but today I swear in front of the entire imperial court's civil and military officials, that I, Xi Shaocheng, will definitely take good care of you."

His words immediately garnered a lot of praise from the other ministers, causing them to whisper to each other once more, as they nodded at Xi Shaocheng.

"The young General Xi is indeed the best candidate to be the Prince Consort."

"That's right, he and the princess can be considered a perfect match, a perfect match."

Hearing the official's words, Xi Shaocheng's eyes flashed with a proud look, as he looked at the quiet Han Chen with a provocative gaze.

Qiao Hongyu couldn't help but frown. He didn't think that Xi Shaocheng would say such a thing.

Reject! Xi Shaocheng was about to lead his troops to battle. Moreover, the opposite party's father, Xi Long, was an old general of two dynasties. Even if he didn't look at the monk's face, he still had to look at the buddhist side.

Accept it! Qiao Hongyu knew that his daughter's heart had long since belonged to him. Moreover, it was his first time meeting Han Chen, so he had a good first impression of her. Of course, compared to Xi Shaocheng. Qiao Hongyu still favored the latter.

Just as Qiao Hongyu was hesitating, the old general, Xi Long said, "Your Majesty, Cheng'er has always been deeply in love with the princess, and this old official dares to ask for Your Majesty's hand in marriage, and humbly requests for Your Majesty's hand in marriage."

After all, he was his biological father and son, so Xi Long really gave Qiao Hongyu a layer of 'pressure'. Many ministers also began to speak up for Xi Shaocheng, trying to arrange the marriage between him and Qiao Feiyan.

However, there were a small number of ministers who were indifferent to this matter, General Zhao Bo seemed to not have any objections.

Seeing that he was about to achieve something big, Xi Shaocheng's heart became even more joyous. Of course, he could also tell that Qiao Hongyu was hesitating. After pondering for a moment, Xi Shaocheng continued.

"Your Majesty, this general knows that it is rather sudden to bring this matter up. This lowly general only needs Your Majesty's permission. Once I return from the battle, it will be the time of my grand wedding with the princess. "

It had to be said that Xi Shaocheng still had a lot of spirit, and was in high spirits at such a young age.

Qiao Hongyu could not help but let out a few hints of praise and satisfaction. However, Qiao Feiyan was angered to the point that her cheeks were slightly red, and her eyebrows were tightly knitted together.

"You can't win this war." Right at this moment, an indifferent voice suddenly made the entire hall quiet down.

Everyone was shocked, all of their eyes turned to look at Qiao Feiyan's location. Han Chen slowly stood up, his pitch black eyes revealing a sense of profoundness.

Long ago, many of the ministers had noticed Han Chen, but had turned a blind eye to him.

Qiao Hongyu looked at Han Chen in shock, some deeper meaning surging in his eyes.

"What did you say?" Xi Shaocheng frowned and asked.

"I said you couldn't win this war."

Crash! * The entire audience burst into an uproar. Everyone thought to themselves, this kid actually dared to say such words in the throne room. Wasn't his guts a bit too big?

"How dare you! How dare you speak such nonsense here and lower the morale of our generals?" a civil servant snapped.

"Don't think that just because you're a friend of the princess, you can spout nonsense."

"Highness, please punish him."

Many ministers were already dissatisfied with Han Chen, since he was not a minister and was not a noble. But to sit on the same level as them, it naturally obstructed the eyes of many people.

Qiao Feiyan panicked, and was about to explain. However, Han Chen still maintained a calm demeanor, and lightly said, "What I said was the truth. Furthermore, the Grand Seal Empire is stronger than the Dark Knight Empire. I can guarantee that you, Xi Shaocheng, will lose in battle. "

"How dare you!" Old General Xi Long shouted in anger.

Xi Shaocheng was equally furious, his face darkened: "Smelly brat, who do you think you are? You have the right to make such a conclusion, have you ever led a soldier? Have you fought a war? "

Han Chen shrugged and spread his hands, "No."

Everyone present looked at Han Chen with eyes full of contempt. All of them scoffed at him with disdain.

"Heh." Xi Shaocheng sneered, "Truly laughable. It's fine if you don't know anything. With your third level of morphogenesis, this general can easily squash you to death. I have to ask, what qualifications do you have to sit together with a princess? What qualifications do you have to stand here? "

Xi Shaocheng had almost reduced Han Chen to a worthless number, but Qiao Hongyu still did not have any intentions of stopping him, he really wanted to see what kind of unexpected action Han Chen would take next.

Han Chen squinted his eyes, his mouth revealing a smile of contempt. How about a fight? "

"Hmph, if you want to die, I'll grant you your wish."

"Stop." Xi Long immediately stopped Xi Shaocheng who was just about to take action, "In the throne room, how can you two be so presumptuous? Why aren't you both retreating."

Xi Shaocheng heaved a deep sigh of relief, his face full of disdain.

Just then, General Zhao Bo suddenly stood up, and said loudly, "Your Majesty, this general has an idea."

"Oh?" Qiao Hongyu was slightly surprised, and raised his hand, "If Your Majesty has something to say, please say it."

Zhao Bo slightly nodded, and pointed to Han Chen, "This little brother just said that we will lose to the Grand Seal Empire, and I am afraid the other generals present, including me, are all unconvinced. This is especially true for Old General Xi and Young General Xi.

"Hmph." Xi Long flung his sleeves and put on an old face.

"Hehe, how about this!" Zhao Bo continued, "Naturally, that little brother will take responsibility for his words. I suggest that he and Young General Xi lead an army and carry out a military confrontation. It will also let him know just how amazing Young General Xi's combat ability is. "

When those words were spoken, the entire hall was instantly thrown into chaos. One after another, they indicated that Zhao Bo's suggestion was unnecessary, there was no need to fight this battle.

Xi Shaocheng was also a little confused by Zhao Bo's suggestion, but immediately laughed coldly: "I'm afraid General Zhao is joking! Do you think this is necessary? "

"Whether it is necessary or not is not up to me to decide. I just feel that the little brother is looking down on your ability to lead." Then you should also prove yourself in this respect. " Zhao Bo turned his gaze towards Han Chen, and spoke with some profound meaning, "Little brother, do you think so?"

Han Chen frowned, he could not see what Zhao Bo was thinking in that moment.

Xi Shaocheng mocked from the side, "Kid, let me add a bit. If you lose, please keep your distance from the princess. Of course, you can also choose to reject them, but the words that you just said were enough to make you suffer a heinous crime. "

Qiao Feiyan's face changed, and immediately turned to look at Qiao Hongyu. But Qiao Hongyu did not seem to have the intention to interfere, and calmly waited for Han Chen's reply.

"You don't have to use words like that to provoke me." Han Chen's attitude was even calmer than what he had imagined. He looked back at Xi Shaocheng with indifferent eyes. "I promise."
