Chapter 1,459 Wu Zhu VS Ku He, breaking into the Northern Qi Palace again
Chapter 1461 Wu Zhu VS Ku He, breaking into the Northern Qi Palace again
Kuhe's hermitage is a place with pleasant scenery, including mountains, water, and a waterfall that flows down three thousand feet, adding a unique sound and atmosphere to the place.
If there is anything bad, it is that it lacks a little popularity, but this is the secluded place Ku He was looking for, so the lack of popularity is the most suitable.
When Zhou Chen came here, the fight was raging. Wu Zhu said he wanted to hold off the Grand Master for Fan Xian, but when it came to fighting Ku He, he was really showing no mercy.
This was also the first time Zhou Chen saw Wu Zhu's skills. There was indeed no fluctuation in his energy. He just relied on the speed of his movements and his fierce moves to fight Ku He on a neck-and-neck fight. It was difficult to tell the difference.
Although Ku He is the oldest among the great masters, he is not the strongest, nor is he the most capable of fighting. The Tian Dao mind method he cultivates pursues the natural Tao method and uses stillness as movement.
A Wu Zhu with no true energy can fight against a great master with a huge amount of true energy. This is indeed beyond imagination.
But considering that Wuzhu is a biochemical robot produced by high technology, it is not surprising. When technology develops to a certain extent, it may not be inferior to extraordinary powers.
What's more, even among the robots in the temple, Wu Zhu is the most special one, that is, he has not yet used his laser eyes. Otherwise, Ku He may not be able to stop him.
The two people who were fighting fiercely stopped fighting because of the arrival of Zhou Chen, an uninvited guest, and turned to look at Zhou Chen.
"Zhou Chen, why are you here?"
Ku He looked older than Ye Liuyun, and he was dressed in monk's robes, making him look like an ascetic practicing Buddhism.
Zhou Chen sat on a rock nearby and asked with a relaxed expression: "Why, I'm not welcome? I'm different from you, an old bachelor. I came to Beiqi this time to ask for marriage."
Ku He was slightly surprised: "Is that the child Pian Pian?"
"Otherwise, can he still be your little emperor?"
Zhou Chen just said it smoothly, but who knew that Ku He actually said: "It's not a bad idea."
Zhou Chen suddenly became energetic and looked at Ku He with a surprised look on his face. This old guy was still a sultry type of person, so he could accept such words.
Ku He added: "If you marry Pianpian's child, it will be a good thing for Northern Qi. At least the royal bloodline can be continued. The royal bloodline, coupled with the bloodline of the Grand Master, may give birth to better talents in the future.
's children."
Although he is an extraordinary grand master, he naturally has feelings for the Northern Qi royal family. If he was really that kind of extremely selfish person, in the original plot, he would not have gone to the Battle of Dadong Mountain.
Zhan Pianpian is the eldest princess of the Northern Qi royal family, and Zhou Chen is the youngest grandmaster in the world. He very much agrees with the combination of the two.
"Who can say for sure about the child?"
Zhou Chen doesn't care too much about the talents of his future children. As long as they are his own children, no matter what their talents are, he may not be able to treat them equally, but he will definitely treat them equally.
Ku He did not continue on this issue, but pointed to Wuzhu and introduced Zhou Chen.
"This is Wu Zhu, have you seen him?"
Zhou Chen said: "I have never seen him, but I have heard about him. Decades ago, he was the servant of the temple messenger Ye Qingmei."
Ku He's expression suddenly changed. There may be people in the world who knew that Ye Qingmei was related to the temple, but he and Sean were the only ones who witnessed the scene when Ye Qingmei left the temple.
According to Zhou Chen's age, he probably doesn't know about Ye Qingmei and Wu Zhu. Could it be Sean?
A cold light flashed in Ku He's eyes. For the sake of the temple, Sean must die.
Wu Zhu turned his head, faced Zhou Chen, and said in a tone without any emotion: "Zhou Chen, I have heard of you, the fifth great master in the world. You helped Fan Xian, thank you."
As a robot, Wu Zhu doesn't care about anyone else, only Fan Xian is the one he cares about most.
Zhou Chen asked: "Are you still fighting?"
"Do not hit."
"beat."
Kuhe said not to hit, but Wuzhu said to hit.
Wu Zhu wanted to hold off the Grand Master for Fan Xian, so he naturally had to fight Ku He, but Ku He really didn't want to fight Wu Zhu. He couldn't win, but didn't want to lose, so they were in a stalemate. It was very uncomfortable. Zhou Chen appeared.
, just breaks this deadlock.
Ku He looked helpless. If Zhou Chen wasn't around, he wouldn't mind continuing the fight with Wu Zhu.
But now that Zhou Chen was by his side, he had to be on guard. Naturally, he didn't want to fight Wuzhu again, let alone give Zhou Chen a chance.
"Don't worry, I won't leave here. You can watch me from here."
Ku He also knew why Wu Zhu came to fight with him, and he had no intention of going to kill Sean in person.
"As long as you don't leave here, I don't have to fight with you."
When speaking, Wuzhu's entire face, except for his mouth, did not move at all, and no expression could be seen.
Zhou Chen stared at Wu Zhu very curiously. If he hadn't known that Wu Zhu was a biochemical robot, he would not have been able to discover Wu Zhu's identity when they met for the first time.
Because Wuzhu, the robot, is really no different from ordinary people, and it can completely fake the real thing.
"Hey, isn't this good? I'm here just to watch you fight. If you don't fight, how lonely will I be?"
Seeing that Kuhe and Wuzhu were both silent, Zhou Chen felt very bored. One of the two was a robot, and the other was a so-called harmony between man and nature. He felt that he really couldn't talk to them.
"It seems that my appearance has disrupted your rhythm. If that's the case, then I'll leave."
Since he couldn't see anything good, he didn't want to stay here anymore. Wouldn't it be better to go to the capital to have a heart-to-heart talk with his eldest princess?
Just leave.
When Ku He saw Zhou Chen leaving like this, his expression was very startled, and then he turned to look at Wuzhu.
"Wuzhu, look..."
The answer was an iron blow. Wu Zhu didn't talk nonsense to him at all. As soon as Zhou Chen left, he killed him again. Ku He was so angry that he could only resist.
Zhou Chen hadn't gone very far when he heard the noise behind him again. His expression was quite strange. He had an urge to turn back and watch the battle, but he still held him back.
You don't need to guess to know that as long as he goes back, the two of them will definitely stop fighting again.
The brief observation of the battle just now allowed him to clearly see Wu Zhu's fighting style. Wu Zhu, who had no true energy, relied on his body's advantages to fight the enemy with speed, movement and skills. The power of the robot had completely surpassed the boundaries of human beings.
, and has the endurance to withstand beatings, otherwise it would be impossible to withstand the Grand Master's infuriating attack.
With a leap, Zhou Chen accurately landed on the horse's back of Tornado and patted Tornado's mane.
"Let's go to the capital."
This was his second trip to the capital. The last time was mainly for fighting, but this time it was for a marriage proposal.
When Zhou Chen rode a whirlwind and wandered to Shangjing City, he was discovered by the Jin Yiwei of Northern Qi. However, the Jin Yiwei who knew Zhou Chen's identity did not dare to approach, but just stared from a distance, and immediately looked up
Face-to-face reporting.
Northern Qi Imperial Palace!
Zhan Pianpian sat bored in the palace, holding a book in his hand. His eyes were focused on the words on the book, but his eyes were blank, as if he was in a trance.
It has been some time since she returned to the upper capital with the mission. She is waiting for Zhou Chen to come to her every day. She still prefers to be with Zhou Chen than staying in this solemn and solemn palace with restricted movement.
When she is with Zhou Chen, even if she does nothing every day, as long as she can see Zhou Chen, she will feel happy.
"Zhou Chen, when are you coming to see me?"
Zhan Pianpian recovered from her fugue state. She couldn't stand the book at all and muttered quietly.
"Since you miss me so much, I'm here now."
Suddenly a familiar voice sounded in her ears. Zhan Pianpian wanted to stand up reflexively, but she had been sitting for too long and her legs were numb. As soon as she stood up, she took a breath and stood up straight before she made any other movements.
About to fall.
But she did not fall, but fell into a warm embrace. The panic on her face flashed across her face, and she grabbed Zhou Chen's arm with a look of joy on her face.
??????55.??????
"Ah, Zhou Chen, when did you come?"
Zhou Chen supported her and said with a smile: "I heard someone say they missed me, so I came."
Zhan Pianpian blinked her big eyes and said coquettishly: "I hate it, you know how to laugh at me, but why did you sneak into the palace again? You told His Majesty, His Majesty will let you come."
But Zhou Chen said: "That would be too troublesome and a waste of time. I want to see you when I come to the capital, but I can't wait that long."
These sudden love words made Zhan Pianpian's face turn even redder. With Zhou Chen, her so-called Daqi royal family's face had long been lost.
Suddenly, inquiries from palace maids came from outside. Zhan Pianpian responded casually, telling them not to come in, and then continued talking to Zhou Chen.
After a while, the numbness in her legs healed, and she sat with Zhou Chen with a happy smile on her face.
"You, when are you going to go to your mother's place..."
Zhou Chen deliberately teased her and asked doubtfully: "Why are you going to your mother's house?"
"Of course, of course..."
Of course, I was embarrassed to say it several times. Seeing Zhou Chen's narrow smile, I slapped Zhou Chen angrily.
Zhou Chen grabbed her hand and said softly: "I took the first step. The betrothal gifts and other items were arranged in the envoy team. When the Qing Kingdom's envoy arrived in Shangjing and retrieved those items, I will go
Propose marriage to your mother."
Zhan Pianpian suddenly jumped for joy, but also felt even more embarrassed.
"Then, what if, what if my mother doesn't agree?"
Zhou Chen pretended to be fierce: "Don't agree? If she dares to disagree, then beat her until she agrees."
"I hate it, don't talk nonsense."
Zhan Pianpian rolled her eyes coquettishly, and then said with a smile: "The queen mother will definitely agree. Your Majesty also told me before that if you agree with me and you, as long as you come to propose marriage, it will be done."
Although she and Zhan Doudou are biological sisters, because of Zhan Doudou's special status, the relationship between the two sisters is not very deep. It was only after Zhou Chen appeared last year that the two of them communicated a lot more.
After all, she grew up in the imperial palace. Although she had not participated in any competition for favor, she was not without any power. In fact, she also understood why the emperor and the queen mother, who had a normal relationship in the past, changed their attitudes towards her a lot this year.
It's entirely because of Zhou Chen.
But she didn't care and didn't think too much about it. Instead, she felt that it was a good thing that the emperor and the queen mother did not oppose her and Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen smiled and nodded her forehead, and said confidently: "Of course, I won't marry you unless you do it. The emperor and the queen mother of your Qi State are both sensible people, so they will naturally agree."
Comparatively speaking, the young emperor and the queen mother of Northern Qi were more knowledgeable than Emperor Qing.
No, I can’t say that. I can only say that these two women are far less domineering and overbearing than Emperor Qing. They live in different environments. Although they both have the same tolerance, the tolerance of these two women is different from that of Emperor Qing.
the same.
Emperor Qing's control over the Qing court was not comparable to that of the Northern Qi Emperor and the Queen Mother.
If Emperor Qing wanted to control and subdue Zhou Chen, then the young emperor and the Queen Mother of Northern Qi wanted to win over and please Zhou Chen. One wanted to be a subordinate, and the other wanted to cooperate and win-win, so their attitudes naturally changed.
different.
Zhou Chen and Zhan Pianpian chatted for a long time until the young emperor of Northern Qi sent someone over.
"Want to see me? Yes."
Zhou Chen was not surprised when he heard the eunuch's report. He told Zhan Pianpian and left with the young eunuch.
In a garden of the palace, Zhou Chen met the young emperor Zhan Doudou of the Northern Qi Dynasty again. Zhan Doudou was holding a book and reading it seriously.
"Long time no see, Your Majesty has grown up a lot."
Because there were no other outsiders, Zhou Chen spoke more casually.
Zhan Doudou glared at Zhou Chen with dissatisfaction. She knew that Zhou Chen knew her identity and deliberately teased her. She had never seen such an impudent person since she became emperor.
"Young Master Zhou has also grown up a lot. Now he is the Duke of Nanqing. However, I heard that he does not have an official position in the Nanqing court. Is this because he does not want to be an official or is he being rejected by you Nanqing?"
The emperor is afraid?"
"All of them."
Zhou Chen glanced at the book in Zhan Doudou's hand: "Is this what Mr. Zhuang gave you?"
Zhan Doudou raised the book in his hand and said with a smile: "Yes, Mr. Zhuang showed me this book after he came back from Nanqing. I heard what he said that this book was written by you, and he also told me that you
You don’t care about false reputation, so please don’t make any noise; but I am very curious. If such a meaningful book is spread, it will definitely make you famous and become a reputation not inferior to Mr. Zhuang, why don’t you care?”
After reading through the Analects of Confucius, she became more aware of the preciousness of this book, as well as another book called The University, both of which are classics among classics. The person who wrote these two books must be a literary master.
Zhou Chen was speechless. Zhuang Mohan was trustworthy, but he attributed these two books to him. Fortunately, only the little emperor knew about it and did not spread the word. Otherwise, he and Fan Xian would have to meet the "fellows" in tears.
Tears welled up.
"Because these two books were not written by me, of course, I guess you won't believe it, so let's not talk about this topic."
He no longer needed to plagiarize to enhance his reputation. At the same time, he also understood that no matter how much he explained, it was useless and Zhan Doudou would not believe it.
Zhan Doudou really didn't believe it. Although she also thought it was incredible that Zhou Chen could write these two books, she believed that Mr. Zhuang would not lie to her.
Since Zhou Chen didn't want to talk, she wouldn't hold on to him.
"You came to Northern Qi this time to propose marriage to my imperial sister?"
"yes."
"I have known for a long time that this day would come."
After confirming this, Zhan Doudou smiled happily. Zhou Chen asked to marry the imperial sister, which proved that she was not wrong about Zhou Chen.
"But you came to ask for a hand in marriage, but you still broke into the palace like this, with your hands empty?"
"I broke into the palace because I didn't waste time. Besides, I didn't just break into your palace in Qi State, I also entered the palace in Qing State at will."
"I believe that in your eyes there is no respect for the imperial power."
Zhan Doudou has become accustomed to Zhou Chen's attitude. Others may think that Zhou Chen has no respect for the imperial power because he has become a grand master and gained strength.
But after spending some time with Zhou Chen, she understood that this was not the main reason, but that Zhou Chen did not respect the imperial power at all. Even if he was not a grand master, he would not be in awe either.
Zhou Chen didn't answer, and continued: "On my way to Beiqi, I went to do other things, so naturally I couldn't bring anything with me. The betrothal gift for my marriage proposal was left at the mission."
"That's it."
Knowing that Zhou Chen did not come empty-handed, Zhan Doudou was relieved. She was really afraid that Zhou Chen came to propose marriage with empty hands. Wouldn't it be too shameless for the Daqi royal family?
"Since the Nanqing envoy has not come yet, the young master is not in a hurry to propose marriage. If the young master is fine, can you have dinner with me today? I have something to ask the young master."
"Can't you ask now? I still have to go find Pianpian."
Zhan Doudou's face suddenly became very dissatisfied, and he snorted coldly: "Mr. Zhou, although neither I nor my mother are opposed to the matter between you and the emperor's sister, should you also think more about the emperor's sister? After all, you have not yet
We have been engaged, let alone married, but we are always so close, and if word spreads about it, it will not be good for the imperial sister’s reputation.”
Zhou Chen's face straightened. He didn't care much about his reputation, but since he wanted to marry Zhan Pianpian, he naturally had to think more about her.
"Okay, I agree with your Majesty's proposal."
Zhan Doudou then showed a satisfied smile. Although sometimes Zhou Chen's words were very irritating, she still liked talking to Zhou Chen because Zhou Chen knew her details and had no respect for her. She was in front of Zhou Chen.
There is no need to hold it up, and no matter what you do, you will feel very relaxed.
"I have asked the people in the imperial kitchen to prepare it. If you want to eat anything, young master, you can tell me and I will ask the people in the imperial kitchen to prepare it."
"I'm not picky about food. I only have one request: serve it while it's hot."
