Chapter 236 No matter what you do, you will always be with Brother Chen 40
Chapter 236 No matter what happens, Zhejun will accompany Brother Chen (4000 words)
"Qinglian. Qinglian!"
In the palace, Chen Lu suddenly opened his eyes and sat up, but all he saw was a black cat.
The black cat tilted its head and looked directly at Chen Lu.
"Mr. Secretary." Chen Lu shouted softly.
"Yes." Black Cat nodded, "You have been unconscious for three days. Ye Qinglian left three days ago, and now Qian Guo is wanted."
"."
Chen Lu lowered his head and fell into silence.
Chen Lu didn't ask anything, but Director Black Cat's words made Chen Lu realize that Qing Lian's departure that night was real and not a nightmare.
"What happened when you rushed over that night?" Director Black Cat asked.
"That night, when I returned to the courtyard, Qinglian had disappeared." Chen Lu answered truthfully.
Director Black Cat tilted his head: "Then how do you know Qinglian will be carrying Guishan?"
Chen Lu sighed:
"Because on the table, there are three words written on the back of Guishan Mountain.
When I rushed over, Qinglian was floating in the sky above the magic circle. There were more than a dozen people presiding over the magic circle, and Qinglian let out a cry of pain.
I went over to destroy the magic circle, but three Dragon Gate monks stopped me. I couldn't defeat them.
Just when I was about to be pierced through the heart, Qinglian opened her eyes and turned into a black phoenix, burning everyone away.
I wanted to go with Qinglian, but Qinglian refused, and finally knocked me unconscious and left alone."
As the town transport envoy, Chen Lu knew the key to the town transport envoy's questions. He briefly told everything he had experienced without hiding anything, which could be regarded as repaying Director Black Cat's trust in him.
"Um."
Director Black Cat nodded, his expression calm.
"Well Chen Lu, let me tell you what happened to you that night."
Director Black Cat looked directly into Chen Lu's eyes and spoke word by word, as if he was afraid that Chen Lu would miss a word:
"That night, I asked you to investigate Ye Qinglian's true identity.
You accept the order and go.
As a result, Ye Qinglian disappeared, and you kept chasing him, finally finding Ye Qinglian in Beigui Mountain.
Later, you learned Ye Qinglian’s identity as Princess Qi Guo.
But you are loyal to the Qian Kingdom, so as the envoy of the town, you plan to kill your relatives and capture Ye Qinglian and bring him back to the imperial capital.
But you failed in the end and were knocked unconscious by Ye Qinglian.
Just when Ye Qinglian was about to pierce your head with a sword, Deputy Director Wang Zhong arrived in time and saved you by sacrificing his natal magic weapon, the Nine-Turn Linglong Tower.
Deputy Director Wang Zhong led 300 town transport envoys to confront Ye Qinglian and Zhang Zheng, the prime minister of the Qi Kingdom and the fall of the country. In the end, Zhang Zheng was afraid of causing trouble and left in time.
Deputy Director Wang Zhong took you back to the Jiantiansi Medical Hall for treatment. Fortunately, the treatment was timely and you were out of danger.
Queen Mother Lanye, and Director of the Supervisory Department He Miao appreciate your integrity and sacrifice your life for the sake of the country, and reward you with a thousand taels of gold, a thousand high-grade spiritual stones, and a thousand pieces of silk and satin.
I will appoint you as the supervisory angel to supervise all the town transportation departments in Pingyang County."
After finishing speaking, Director Black Cat looked at Chen Lu seriously: "Do you remember everything I said?"
"Mr. Secretary, this..." There is a huge difference between what Director Black Cat said and Chen Lu's understanding.
"Chen Lu, what I said is the 'truth', and you can't reveal this 'truth'. You must have nothing to do with Qing Lian now, and you must even stand on the opposite side of Qing Lian.
Otherwise, you will die!
Neither I nor Lan Ye can protect you!"
Director Black Cat jumped onto Chen Lu's shoulder, stretched out his paw and patted Chen Lu:
"Be patient for a while, so that you can keep the green hills and don't have to worry about running out of firewood. No matter what you want to do next, at least for now, you are still in the imperial capital of Qian Kingdom."
"Yes, I understand." Chen Lu nodded.
Chen Lu was not a fool, and he also knew that Director Black Cat and Her Royal Highness the Queen Mother wanted to protect themselves.
Otherwise, Princess Qi Guo is his "maid", in case someone wants to use Qing Lian to make a fuss, such as "Zhen Yun Envoy Chen Lu colluded with Princess Qi Guo".
As a result, it would be impossible for Chen Lu to be alive.
But now, Director Black Cat and Lan Ye have completely determined this matter and completely cut off this road!
"There are some things that I still need to tell you."
Director Black Cat also breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Chen Lu understood the truth.
He was afraid that Chen Lu, a young boy, would suddenly become impulsive and be caught by others. Then no one would be able to save Chen Lu.
"Mr. Secretary, please speak." After calming down, Chen Lu leaned on the bedside and listened carefully.
"First of all, it's about Qinglian.
According to the latest news obtained by our Tiantian Division, Qinglian has now headed towards the direction of the Thirty Thousand Mountains in the Miao Territory.
In the Thirty Thousand Mountains of the Miao Territory, there is the old tribe of Qi Guo.
In addition, we are unable to determine the identities of the monks Qing Lian killed. They were all reduced to ashes and not a single one of them survived, so we don’t know who kidnapped Qing Lian.
Secondly, due to Zhang Zheng’s timely appearance.
So we guess.
The person who told us Qinglian’s identity was Zhang Zheng.
Zhang Zheng's purpose in doing this was to take Qing Lian away.
Our speculation is this -
In fact, Zhang Zheng already knew that Qinglian was Princess Qi.
But Qinglian never wanted to leave.
The biggest reason why Qinglian doesn't want to leave is because of you.
Because of the relationship between your parents and the important position you hold in Qinglian's heart, Zhang Zheng has no way to attack you.
Even if Zhang Zheng wanted to use Qian Guo's help to frame you, it would not be easy.
Because you have become His Majesty's personal bodyguard, it means that Lan Ye attaches great importance to you. With Lan Ye as your backer, basically no one dares to do anything to you.
Therefore, Zhang Zheng simply asked Qinglian to leave on his own.
The way to make Qinglian leave is to expose Qinglian's identity.
As long as Qinglian's identity is exposed, Qinglian will no longer be able to be with you.
Therefore, Zhang Zheng simply laid such a trap.
Zhang Zheng told me and another person the news that Qinglian was the princess of Qi State.
He was sure that I would handle this matter for you, and he was also sure that the other party would kidnap Qing Lian, no matter how big the risk was.
And he has been protecting Qing Lian. After Qing Lian is kidnapped, he will give you news, predicting that you will ask Jian Tiansi for help just in case.
Finally, you went to Beigui Mountain and witnessed with your own eyes that Qinglian was the princess of Qiguo. Then the Qianguo town luck envoy came and Qinglian's identity was exposed to the world and she had to leave.
You can go with Qinglian.
But the other party also knows Qinglian's character very well, and he knows that Qinglian will never harm you.
You finally have a good life now, everything is on the right track, and you are respected by me and Lan Ye.
And Qinglian is a rebel and is very likely to lose his head. Qinglian doesn't want you to live such a precarious life for her.
More importantly, Qinglian also had a general idea in his mind about the remnant party of Qi State.
Do you think Qinglian is dumb and doesn’t understand anything? In fact, that’s not the case.
Qing Lian knew that even if she was Princess Qi, she would not do whatever she wanted.
Qinglian even feels that just because she is the princess of Qi State, she dare not take you with her.
Among the remnants of Qi Guo, the forces are mixed, and not everyone is united. Everyone has their own ideas.
And as the envoy of Zhenyun, you are deeply valued by Lan Ye and me.
In the eyes of others, you are like a spy.
Even if you are not a spy, you are still a spy.
If you really follow Qing Lian to Qi Guo's base camp, that place will be the most dangerous place for you.
There will be many people who will try their best to kill you! And this is all for the great cause of Qi Guo!
You won’t live long!”
"Chen Lu," Director Black Cat sighed, "This time, Qinglian has thought much more carefully than you. Think about it for yourself. During this period, you should have a good rest."
After saying that, Director Black Cat jumped off Chen Lu's bed and left the room.
Sitting on the bed, Chen Lu looked out the window. He sat there for a long time, thinking about something.
Or maybe it was Lan Ye's special instruction, so no one came to disturb Chen Lu, and no one sent Chen Lu food.
After noon, Chen Lu put on his clothes, got out of bed, and walked step by step in the palace.
Chen Lu walked aimlessly in the palace.
Chen Lu didn't know where he was going.
"Brother Chen~~~"
Suddenly, Chen Lu, who was walking in the palace, heard a cry like a silver bell.
Chen Lu turned around and saw a cute little girl flying towards him with short legs.
"Brother Chen~~~"
Tang Zhejun jumped up high and hung on Chen Lu like a koala.
"Has Your Majesty gone to court?" Chen Lu picked up Tang Zhejun and said with a smile.
"Yes~ It's already noon." Tang Zhejun nodded his little head, "It's so boring to go to court, and it's so boring to be the emperor. How about Brother Chen playing with Zhejun."
"This." Chen Lu was not in the mood.
"Brother Chen, just play with Mr. Zhe, just play for a while, just play for a while." Tang Zhejun grabbed Chen Lu's collar and kept shaking it, looking at Chen Lu with a pair of big watery eyes.
"Okay then." Unable to withstand Zhe Jun's coquettishness, Chen Lu nodded helplessly.
"Okay~" Tang Zhejun jumped down from Chen Lu's arms, grabbed Chen Lu's thumb with his little hand, and pulled Chen Lu forward, "This time Zhejun will take Brother Chen to play~"
"Your Majesty, run slower and don't fall."
Chen Lu, who was pulled by Tang Zhejun to trot, said with concern.
"It's okay, it's okay~~~"
Tang Zhejun continued to pull Chen Lu, but after running, the little girl got tired, so Chen Lu picked up Tang Zhejun, and Tang Zhejun showed Chen Lu the way.
Tang Zhejun took Chen Lu to a very remote place in the palace.
This seems to be a cold palace
It's just that the cold palace is empty now.
"Here, here, brother Chen, come here."
Tang Zhejun jumped out of Chen Lu's arms and climbed up to a high hill behind Leng Palace.
Looking down from the hill, it is a steep hillside covered with green grass.
"Brother Chen, hurry up, hurry up~"
Standing at the highest point, Tang Zhejun waved his little hand towards Chen Lu.
Chen Lu walked up and came to Tang Zhejun's side.
I saw Tang Zhejun take out a small wooden board from the storage bag. There were two ropes on the small wooden board, just like the reins of a horse.
"Brother Chen, come here and sit behind Mr. Zhe."
Tang Zhejun got on the small wooden board first.
Looking at Tang Zhejun's innocent eyes, Chen Lu nodded, did not refuse, and sat behind Tang Zhejun.
"Let's go~"
Tang Zhejun's little feet slid along the small board like a paddle, but because Chen Lu sat on it, Tang Zhejun couldn't move.
Chen Lu could only hold the rope in his hand and help Zhejun drop the plank on the hillside.
"Wow~~"
The board kept sliding on the grass on the hillside, getting faster and faster, and Zhejun made a happy sound.
Finally, the board slid down the hillside and slid for a while before slowly stopping.
But Zhejun, who was originally happy, looked a little disappointed when he looked at Chen Lu's indifferent face, but he quickly cheered up: "Brother Chen, let's go play something else."
With that said, without waiting for Chen Lu to refuse, Tang Zhejun put away the small wooden board and pulled Chen Lu to run to another place.
In one afternoon, Tang Zhejun took Chen Lu to many of his secret bases, where he could catch butterflies and fish. He even went to the imperial dining room to prepare delicious food for Chen Lu.
At this time, Chen Lu also gradually understood.
In fact, Zhejun didn't want to play with her by himself.
But Zhejun, a little girl, is relaxing herself in her own way.
"Zhe-kun, I actually had a lot of fun today."
In a small courtyard of the palace, just when Tang Zhejun was about to take Chen Lu to another place, Chen Lu rubbed Zhejun's little head and said softly.
"Really? Is Brother Chen really happy?" Tang Zhejun turned his head and looked at Chen Lu blinking.
"Really." Chen Lu rubbed Tang Zhejun's little head and said with a smile, "Thank you, Zhejun."
"Hmm"
Tang Zhejun lowered his head, grabbed the corner of Chen Lu's clothes with his small hands, and prayed with his big eyes.
"Brother Chen, please don't be sad anymore, okay?
Don't worry, Brother Chen. No matter what happens, Zhejun will be with Brother Chen.
And Mr. Zhe will find a way to bring sister Qinglian back."
Chen Lu smiled and said, "Does Mr. Zhe know what happened to sister Qinglian?"
"I know, my aunt told Zhejun that sister Qinglian and Zhejun will be enemies from now on." Tang Zhejun nodded.
"Even so, does Mr. Zhe still want to bring sister Qinglian back?" Chen Lu asked doubtfully.
"Hmm." Tang Zhejun nodded seriously, "Zhejun can feel that Sister Qinglian is a good person. Zhejun does not want to become an enemy with Sister Qinglian, and does not want to meet Sister Qinglian on the battlefield."
"But what if that day still comes?" Chen Lu asked.
"If that day comes, Zhejun, Zhejun, no." Zhejun, who couldn't think of the result, frowned cutely.
Seeing Tang Zhejun's sad face, Chen Lu's heart softened slightly, and he flicked Tang Zhejun's little head: "Don't worry, Brother Chen is here, Brother Chen will not let that day come."
"Really?" Tang Zhejun asked with a wink.
Chen Lu looked at the setting sun, hugged the little girl in his arms, and nodded:
