Chapter 591: The Emperor Arrives
"He actually got the opportunity in the stone carvings!"
Many people at the scene gasped.
Even Guan Fan was stunned. He couldn't believe his ears and couldn't believe that Su Chen could be so lucky.
In the distance, Guan Qiyun was lazily leaning against the railing, playing with a lock of her hair with a bunch of curlers in her hand, and there was a hint of smile and interest in her eyes.
As for everyone in the Lin family, they looked at Su Chen at this moment, as if they wanted to kill Su Chen, with all kinds of unwillingness.
The most irritating thing was that Lin Jingtian had decided internally that there was no way to make this matter public, so they had no choice but to accept this dumb loss.
At this moment, looking at the entire audience, there were countless envious, jealous and hateful eyes circling around Su Chen.
Obviously, facing this guy who was lucky enough to receive the inheritance of the lotus pond, everyone was envious but also a little bit unable to accept it.
Although they had rebellious feelings because of Lin Jingtian's unofficial decision before, they felt that they would rather let this guy named Chen Shu get the Lotus Pond inheritance than let Lin Jingtian get it.
But now, this guy named Chen Shu has really received the lotus pond inheritance. While everyone is envious, they can't help but feel a sour feeling in their hearts.
Many of them thought that their martial arts strength was much higher than that of Chen Shu. How come they didn't have the opportunity to touch it, but Chen Shu got it?
Moreover, if you think about it carefully, Chen Shu was able to reach the end of the lotus pond neck and neck with Lin Jingtian. This is an extremely miraculous thing in itself.
"Chen Shu, this guy is so lucky. He actually got a chance to have a chance at the lotus pond."
"Where is he from? Why has no one even heard of him a few months ago?"
"How did a genius in alchemy get this opportunity? Is it possible to say that his talent in martial arts is higher than that of us, the wealthy children of the imperial capital?"
For a moment, many people present felt unwilling.
If Lin Jingtian gets the opportunity, they won't be able to say anything.
However, it was not Lin Jingtian who got the opportunity, but a young man who was still unknown just a few months ago.
And his identity is even more shocking. He is actually a genius in alchemy, and his martial arts cultivation is only at the eighth level of the material transformation realm.
This can basically be regarded as a kind of ridicule to them, the children of major wealthy families.
For a moment, except for the children of the Guan family who were relatively calm, the children of the other major families were unable to accept this result calmly.
"Your Majesty, I have something to say about this result."
The head of the Lin family opened his mouth and said to Prince Rui, "How did Chen Shu obtain the opportunity in the stone carving? We are really curious and hope he can explain it himself."
"That's right, Chen Shu is really astonishing to be able to compare with other family members, including Lin Jingtian. We also want to ask him to explain, so as to satisfy everyone's curiosity."
"Yeah, how did he get the opportunity in the stone carving?"
Many family heads at the scene also spoke in various directions. Although they did not say it explicitly, they were obviously somewhat hostile to Su Chen.
Prince Rui said calmly to Su Chen: "Since everyone is curious about the process of how you got the opportunity, just tell me."
Su Chen smiled calmly: "There should be no mention in the rules of the Lotus Pond Trial that if you get the opportunity to carve a stone, the process must be made public, right? If there is no such rule in the rules, then I cannot make it public."
Prince Rui frowned slightly, obviously not expecting that Su Chen would so blatantly contradict him, the prince.
At that moment, Prince Rui's face suddenly turned gloomy, and he said: "The rules are only one aspect, it is me who is ordering you now."
"Is it possible that you can contradict the king's orders at will?"
Su Chen shrugged his shoulders and smiled lightly: "Your Majesty, I forgive you."
The process of obtaining the Green Lotus Sword Seed just now, it is definitely impossible for Su Chen to make it public.
As for what kind of big label Prince Rui wants to slap on him because of this, that is beyond his control.
Prince Rui said calmly: "Are you sure you really want to disobey this king's order?"
As he spoke, the powerful pressure surrounding Prince Rui also enveloped Su Chen unconsciously.
For a moment, even the people nearby were involuntarily frightened by Prince Rui's coercion and felt chilled in their hearts.
The Queen Mother, who was sitting on the phoenix chair in the distance, had no intention of stopping Prince Rui.
In this palace, except the emperor and the queen mother, who dares to disobey Prince Rui?
Anyone who contradicts Prince Rui will definitely not get good results.
"Your Majesty, the true origin of Chen Shu is unknown. We must not give him the opportunity that belongs to the royal family casually."
"That's right, that's right! Who can guarantee that his origin must be legitimate? For such a person, it is better to take back his opportunity."
There were several heads of families around, and they were also chatting away.
Of course, if you look carefully, you will find that these families are all in the same vein as the Lin family and wear the same pants.
Everyone was talking a lot.
Prince Rui obviously also made up his mind to give Su Chen some color.
However, at this moment, a loud shout suddenly came from the distance: "His Majesty the Emperor has arrived!"
"What?"
"Is your Majesty here?"
The people at the scene suddenly became commotion.
Everyone looked towards the place where the shout came from, and saw a sedan with a golden roof parked a few hundred meters away.
The sedan curtain opened a corner, and it was pitch dark inside. I could only vaguely see a figure sitting inside, but I couldn't see clearly what the figure looked like.
However, the faint coercion emanating from the sedan was enough to confirm that the person sitting in the sedan was indeed the Nine-Fifth Emperor of the Yunyuan Empire - Emperor Yunyuan.
"Long live my emperor!"
Everyone was astonished and quickly bowed to salute.
The emperor had previously sent an edict saying that he was not feeling well, and they thought he would not show up at the Queen Mother's birthday this time.
Unexpectedly, when the birthday banquet was about to end, the emperor actually appeared.
"Brother Royal."
Prince Rui's pressure on Su Chen was interrupted, and he reluctantly bowed to the sedan chair.
However, when Prince Rui bowed and saluted, there was a look of unwillingness in his eyes. Although he concealed it well, it still did not escape Su Chen's eyes.
"This Prince Rui really covets the throne."
Su Chen thought secretly in his heart.
"My dear friends, please excuse me and don't bow your head."
A listless voice came from the golden-topped sedan, with a tone full of sleepiness.
