In the Daxia Palace, in front of Emperor Xia, King Qingping sat cautiously on a chair.
Although the court had passed, Emperor Xia called him into the palace again.
This made him a little uneasy!
"Chen'er is already a grown man. He can't just fool around at home all the time. As the son-in-law of the Zhao family, let's go to Dingzhou to find a position as a general. After a few years of training, one day I can go to northern Xinjiang to kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds!" Xia
Di said softly.
Although he can't be openly unscrupulous, it doesn't mean that he can't do anything!
Dingzhou is not considered a frontier, but it is very close to the frontier!
Relatively peaceful, but may be transferred to the frontier to fight at any time!
King Qingping was stunned, and then said: "Your Majesty, Chen'er has not been determined yet, nor has he experienced any experience in the army, so he is rashly releasing himself. I'm afraid it is"
He didn't finish his words, but it was obvious that he didn't want Zhao Chen to leave Kyoto!
Emperor Xia glanced at him and said coldly: "You dare to do what I don't want you to do. If you don't want to do what I ask you to do, then what do you want to do? Doesn't my word work?"
King Qingping could tell that Emperor Xia was very unhappy!
And he also knew very well that Emperor Xia was unhappy not because he didn't want to go to Zhao Chen to go out!
"Brother I don't dare!" King Qingping quickly said: "Everything depends on Your Majesty."
Emperor Xia stared at him with his old eyes, and said coldly: "You are old now, enjoy your old age well, and don't make it difficult for me. Just leave the things of young people to young people!"
"Brother Chen knows!"
"Get down!"
Seeing him going out, Emperor Xia shook his head slightly and murmured: "You are quite old. Don't end up in a bad way. Everyone will look bad!"
Half an hour later, Chu Ze entered the palace.
It is still the palace of Emperor Xia.
Chu Ze bowed and saluted: "I have met Your Majesty!"
Goodbye Chu Ze, Emperor Xia's eyes lit up!
"I have made great progress in my cultivation recently!" He praised. He got down from the couch and said with a smile: "Come, accompany me to the Imperial Garden to enjoy the snow!"
In the imperial garden, the flowers have long since withered, but there are many trees. The trees hanging with white snow are really beautiful.
Emperor Xia walked in front, Chu Ze followed behind Emperor Xia's right hand, and Huang Qi followed more than ten steps away from the two of them.
"Duke Chen Guo was not injured last night, was he?" Emperor Xia asked casually.
Chu Ze replied: "No! Grandpa, he is always getting stronger and stronger, and he subdued the assassinating gangster with just a few moves."
Emperor Xia glanced at him and said softly: "But I heard that yesterday morning, Duke Chen was seriously ill and in a coma!"
Chu Ze grinned: "It happened, but Grandpa was unconscious in the morning and woke up in the afternoon. No one expected that the assassin would come at night. What a coincidence!"
Emperor Xia ignored him and said: "It's good that you are well. The Duke is my great minister of Great Xia, Dinghaizhushi, and there is no room for failure. Go back and tell Chen Guogong that I have sentenced the entire Jiang family to execution."
, let him calm down and cultivate himself, and never take action again!" After Xia Di finished speaking, he turned his head, stared at Chu Ze and asked: "Do you understand?"
Chu Ze smiled bitterly in his heart, wondering what he didn't understand.
Doesn’t it mean that you are not allowed to cause trouble to Prince Qingping’s Mansion?
"I understand!" Chu Ze responded honestly.
I won’t trouble them now, but Chu Ze still has to keep a record of this account!
Emperor Xia was very satisfied with his reaction, and a smile appeared on his old face: "You boy, I heard that a few days ago, you led a team to kill a ruthless bandit in the Star Reaching Realm?"
"It's just a fluke!"
"There is nothing lucky or unlucky. There are so many patrol teams, how come you are the only one who can successfully kill this gangster? You still have merit!"
Although the case file had already confessed the hiring of the Black and Green Demons, Emperor Xia seemed completely unaware of it and continued: "You should be rewarded for leading a team to kill the ruthless bandits in the Star Reaching Realm and protecting the people of Kyoto! After a while,
You go to the third floor of the palace secret warehouse to select a treasure, and you can also be promoted to the position of deputy general of the side army, which can be regarded as a high-level one!"
Emperor Xia patted Chu Ze on the shoulder.
Although the captain is an officer, he actually has no rank, he is just the lowest officer!
But the lieutenant general of the partial army is different. As a partial general who commands a thousand people, he is an eighth-grade military attaché, and the deputy general of the partial army is a ninth-grade military attache!
Officially become a high-ranking officer!
The taste of official position is exactly the opposite of the level of martial arts.
The official position is the lowest one, the first rank is the highest rank, and the martial arts cultivation level is just the opposite.
In fact, generally speaking, according to the unspoken rules of Daxia, the first heir of a noble family to enter the court will receive a relatively high reward.
Most of them start at the general level.
After that, if any heir comes to the court, his rank will be much lower.
For example, Chu Ze's wife Chen Xirui started as a general, while Chu Ze was just a captain.
Chu Ze killed a master in the Star Reaching Realm. Logically speaking, there is nothing wrong with being promoted. After all, meritorious services in the military are rewarded. Compared with civilian officials who often have to complete their term, promotion and removal in the military are actually more demanding.
Be more direct.
Chu Ze couldn't help feeling that Chen Jinsong knew Emperor Xia very well.
I really compensated myself. I was allowed to go to the palace secret treasury to choose something, and I was promoted.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Chu Ze bowed and saluted.
Emperor Xia ignored him and continued walking forward, and Chu Ze quickly followed.
"It's great to be young, full of energy and hope. It's not like me, who is already old. Just like these dead trees." Emperor Xia seemed a little sad, sighing as he looked at the dead trees covered with snow.
Chu Ze didn't know how to answer the call, so he could only stand aside and accompany him.
After admiring the snow scene for a while, Emperor Xia said to Chu Ze: "Okay, go back to the secret store after picking up things. Say hello to Chen Guogong for me and tell him to take care of yourself!"
After speaking, he turned to look at Huang Qidao: "Follow him!"
"yes!"
Huang Qi agreed and left with Chu Ze.
The palace was very large. Chu Ze followed Huang Qi and walked slowly in the palace.
"Hehe, your kid's skills are quite good, but sometimes you don't want to be too quick, you still need to polish your body well. The foundation of a warrior is very important!" As he walked, Huang Qi also gave some advice to Chu Ze.
It is obvious that both Chen Jinsong and Huang Qi, including the system, have a consensus on this point.
Chu Ze smiled and said: "I have been trying my best to polish my body recently, but my skills have advanced a little faster, and I really can't keep up."
"When you reach the ninth level of the Bone Forging Realm, it is best to have a strength of ten thousand kilograms. It will be of great benefit to you to practice the technique again!" Huang Qi said.
Chu Ze was stunned, he really didn't know this.
He doesn't know how powerful he is now, and he hasn't tested it specifically.
However, he does not need to be like this. Anyway, as long as he completes the system strengthening task, it should be almost the same.
"Thank you, Senior Huang, for your advice! I wonder if Senior can give you some advice on the treasures in the secret vault?" Chu Ze was not polite. Seeing that Huang Qi seemed to have a good impression of him, he started to ask for advice.
No matter what, you only have one chance.
Huang Qi thought for a moment and said: "This palace secret vault is full of cultivation resources, treasures of heaven and earth, weapons and equipment, but below the third floor, there is nothing too precious. It depends on what you need.
I can't give specific advice either."
Hearing this, Chu Ze was a little disappointed.
It seems that I can only rely on myself.
Soon, Chu Ze and Huang Qi arrived in front of the secret warehouse.
There was also someone on duty, and this person was also a eunuch. When he saw Huang Qi, he quickly stood up and saluted.
"I've met Mr. Huang!"
"His Majesty said, let him choose a treasure on the first three floors of the secret vault. You can take him in." Huang Qi ordered.
Chu Ze followed the eunuch inside.
Upon entering the eyes, there are countless things that cannot be named, including grass, stones, and jade. In short, they do not have any pearls and jewels, but look a bit tattered.
But beside these things, there are notes with explanations so that Chu Ze can know what they are and what they are used for.
"The bone-eating ecstasy grass is extremely poisonous and can be used to make poison that is effective for warriors in the Star Reaching Realm."
"Kunshan Dali Grass can be used to refine Dali Pills and has additional aphrodisiac effects."
"Huiyang stone can gather the yang energy of heaven and earth"
"The skull of the fourth-grade ferocious beast Seven Star Beast."
Seeing these things, Chu Ze swallowed.
Although these things may not look eye-catching, if you take out any one of them, they are definitely not cheap.
The eunuch followed Chu Ze step by step. Everything here was recorded. If he really lost something, he would have to carry it around without food.
Don't think that no one dares to steal. It has happened before. Someone took an extra item. When he turned around, he chopped off the eunuch in charge of the warehouse!
Chu Ze didn't intend to steal anything, but he didn't know what to choose for a while.
"Mr. Chu, let's go to the third floor. The things in the secret warehouse are better than the last. It's useless for you to look at them on this floor." The eunuch saw Chu Ze looking at each thing and couldn't help but remind him.
stand up.
"Let me take a look, don't worry!"
Chu Ze didn't listen to him, but continued to look at them one by one!
After looking at the first floor, Chu Ze went up to the second floor, which was the same as the first floor, except that the things were of higher quality.
Chu Ze still walked through one item after another.
Suddenly, Chu Ze stopped in front of a stone the size of his head.
"The Earth's Heart Jade contains extremely powerful spiritual energy from heaven and earth. It can be used as an eye to set up formations."
Chu Ze looked at the jade stone in confusion!
What's going on? Chu Ze found that when he stood in front of this jade, his whole body was numb and his heart was a little frightened, just like when he was attacked by an enemy that day!
Chu Ze continued to move forward. This feeling began to weaken, but he had a feeling of wanting to go back. It seemed like attachment and desire.
Chu Ze retreated again!
The eunuch looked at Chu Ze and said with a smile: "Mr. Chu has fallen in love with this earth-centered jade? Let me tell you, let's go to the third floor to choose."
"It's not bad, don't worry! Let's take a look again!"
Chu Ze restrained himself and chose to move on!
After that comes the third floor, although the things are of higher quality and more rare and precious.
But nothing else could give Chu Ze the feeling he had just now.
After reading everything, Chu Ze fell into deep thought.
After a moment, he smiled and said: "I really just like the Earth Heart Jade, so let's take it."
The eunuch was stunned. In his opinion, this Earth Heart Jade was definitely not something particularly outstanding in this secret vault.
Unexpectedly, Chu Ze only chose this one thing!
"Mr. Chu, why don't we take a look again? If you look at the third floor, there are a lot of good things! If you regret it, there will be no place to change it! Once the things are out of the warehouse, they will be registered."
Chu Ze smiled and said: "No need, just the piece of earth jade!"
Chu Ze still chose to believe his feelings!
Soon, the eunuch and Chu Ze returned to the second floor together, in front of the Earth Heart Jade.
Approaching the jade again, Chu Ze still felt clearly.
That special feeling is unlike anything else.
Chu Ze stretched out his hand to pick up the stone, which was as big as his head and felt extremely heavy.
However, Chu Ze's current physical fitness and strength can hold things without any problems at all.
The eunuch didn't try to persuade Chu Ze anymore. What he chose was Chu Ze's business and had nothing to do with him.
He just needs to make sure that Chu Ze doesn't take too many things, and that's fine!
When Chu Ze and the eunuch came out, Huang Qi had already left.
After the two of them registered, Chu Ze was ready to leave.
At this moment, a young man also came to the door of the secret warehouse!
"The note from Master Cui of Tianlongyuan said that you should take the Earth Core Jade on the second floor because the formation of Tianlongyuan needs to be replaced!" The man handed the note to the eunuch!
His eyes glanced at the Earth Heart Jade in Chu Ze’s hand!
The eunuch took the note, looked at the seal on it, shook his head and said: "Your Highness Jizhe, now this piece of earth-center jade has been picked away by this young master. Please go back and report it to Master Cui."
Zhao Jizhe glanced at Chu Ze and was not angry. Instead, he stepped forward, bowed and saluted, and said with a smile: "I am Zhao Jizhe, my father is the third prince Yongxiu. May I ask what your brother's name is? I can go back and report it to the teacher!"
In this Tianlong Garden, in addition to princesses and princes, as well as the third and fourth generations of the royal family, all can enter and study.
Daxia has no tradition of raising royal children to live in dignity and do nothing.
It’s time to study, it’s time to practice, and it’s time to serve.
Therefore, there are also royal children in many places within the imperial court.
It can also be regarded as a means for the Daxia royal family to divide the power of ministers.
The third prince Yongxiu can also be regarded as one of the contenders for the position of prince.
In other words, in their position, there are too few people who don't want to be the prince.
This Zhao Jizhe is the ninth son of Yongxiu!
Similar to Chu Ze, his mother's status was not very high, she was just the daughter of a wealthy businessman.
Therefore, his status is relatively ordinary in the royal circle.
There is a high probability that he will not be able to inherit the title of third prince, and he will have no status as a royal family member. In the future, he will basically have to rely on himself for everything.
Of course, he can still enjoy the elite education of a royal child and enter Tianlong Garden.
Although Zhao Chen and his ilk do not have the capital to enter Tianlong Garden, they will be able to inherit the throne in the future, so in terms of status, he is really inferior to Zhao Chen.
Initially, Chu Ze thought that this guy would come up and arrogantly ask him to give up the Earth Heart Jade. Unexpectedly, the man in front of him turned out to be gentle and extremely polite.
Chu Ze opened the Eye of Root and the Eye of Comprehension!
Root bone: sixth grade
Comprehension: Seventh Grade
In Chu Ze's opinion, this foundation and understanding are considered to be excellent.
After all, there are relatively few people who can reach level seven or above.
"I am Chu Ze, the grandson-in-law of Chen Guogong." Chu Ze said with a smile.
This can be regarded as a Daxia tradition. When announcing one's family status, one always brings his elders with him.
After all, when it comes to yourself, who knows who you are?
Just like the Zhao Jizhe in front of him, Chu Ze would definitely have no impression of him just by his name.
"It turns out to be Brother Chu. I heard that Brother Chu fought against the masters of the Star Reaching Realm the day before yesterday! Master Cui of our Tianlong Garden praised you for being alert and decisive in making decisions! Moreover, Brother Chu is still the root of the earth, and he is the future pillar of my Daxia, my little brother
So polite."
What Zhao Jizhe said was true. The combat cases of Chu Ze and the others were directly explained to Tianlongyuan.
Of course, the other person's main purpose is to explain some of the impact of the magician system on combat.
As for Chu Ze, it was just a compliment in passing.
In the opinion of Master Cui, Chu Ze's ability to discover the enemy in advance was the most valuable thing.
As for Zhao Jizhe, his posture was extremely low, and he completely lacked the arrogance of the royal family. Instead, he called himself his younger brother.
Naturally, Chu Ze didn't want to lose face due to his behavior, so he also responded politely: "Your Highness, please don't be too polite."
Zhao Jizhe didn't seem to be in a hurry to leave, but stepped forward and said with a smile: "I am really lucky to see Brother Chu today. I accompanied Brother Chu out of the palace. I have some details that I don't understand about Brother Chu's battle that day. I hope Brother Chu
Can you give me some pointers?"
With that said, he stepped forward and took the initiative to hold the core stone for Chu Ze.
The two of them walked out of the palace, and Zhao Jizhe really started to ask some questions: "Brother Chu, how did you discover the enemy that day? Logically speaking, if two masters of the Star Reaching Realm hide their auras, you don't care.
How could it be impossible to discover!"
Faced with this question, Chu Ze could only laugh and said: "I don't know, I just felt something was wrong, and there was a creepy feeling on my body. I was just pretending to drink, but I didn't expect that they couldn't help but rush out!"
"Amazing! It's amazing. If it were me, the whole army would definitely be wiped out!"
Zhao Jizhe had a look of admiration on his face and chatted with Chu Ze.
With words full of praise and flattery all the way, Chu Ze and him arrived at the palace gate!
Zhao Jizhe handed the piece of earth core jade back to Chu Ze and said with a smile: "I felt like old friends when I met Brother Chu today, and I got many pointers from Brother Chu. I am very grateful. I heard that Brother Chu seems to often go to Biliu Yuntian to play. I have never been there, so why not
How about I host you someday and invite Brother Chu to have some fun?"
"It's easy to say!" Chu Ze didn't take his words seriously, he just agreed.
"Then I will go back to Tianlong Garden to resume my life. Brother Chu takes his leave!"
Zhao Jizhe turned and left.
The smile on Chu Ze's face gradually disappeared.
"Flattery sounds nice, but I don't seem to like getting too close to such a smooth person!"
Chu Ze sighed secretly.
In fact, all Zhao Jizhe's behavior was very good, he was polite and full of praise, and he seemed to want to have a sincere relationship with Chu Ze.
However, Chu Ze always felt that this person seemed to be wearing a mask.
It's full of that kind of human and sophistication.
In fact, there are many such people. They talk about other people and talk about ghosts.
Even for most people, they will have a very good impression of this kind of person.
Even with the Chu Ze in front of him, it was difficult to feel any disgust towards him.
However, Chu Ze just instinctively doesn't want to get too close to this kind of person.
