The nanny's expression changed slightly when she saw the person, but she still said forcefully, "General Jin, this is the Empress Dowager's palace. Even His Majesty needs us to inform him. Are you trying to barge in?"
"I suspect that you have kidnapped the Empress Dowager and are plotting something. I must go in and search to protect the Empress Dowager!"
The golden-armored man's expression was cold. He took a step forward and said, "If you don't move, I'll kill you all on the spot!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A dozen or so palace maids dashed out from the bedchambers and faced off against several dozen Imperial Insignia Guards.
Cough cough … Cough cough …
At this critical moment, an intense coughing sound was faintly heard from afar.
Then, a slightly hunched old man in a purple robe walked over slowly with a horsetail whisk in his hand.
"Greetings, Grand Tutor!"
At that moment, everyone, including the golden-armored man and the nanny, knelt on one knee.
The young man in the royal robe looked as if he had seen his savior, "Grand Tutor, I want to see my mother …"
Cough cough cough …
The old man in the robe covered his mouth and coughed, "Your Majesty, why do you want to see the Empress Dowager?"
"I … I had a nightmare. I'm scared … scared of ghosts …" The young man in the royal robe sounded weak.
The golden-armored man on the ground pursed his lips and a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, this is the palace. It contains the fortune of our dynasty for thousands of years and is protected by the previous emperors!"
The old man in the robe sighed, "Any evil will retreat. How can there be ghosts?"
Then, he walked over and gently helped the young man in the royal robe up, "Follow me back. The Empress Dowager is not feeling well. You can come and see her in three days!" “
The young man in the royal robe did not dare to disagree.
The golden-armored man watched the old man and the young man leave. Suddenly, a piece of cloth floated in front of him.
He picked it up subconsciously and saw that there were scarlet bloodstains on it. He immediately said, "Grand Tutor, you dropped something!"
The old man in the robe stopped and slowly turned around. He looked at the golden-armored man who had a strange look in his eyes and suddenly said, "General Jin, do you still remember your father's ambition?"
The golden-armored man's body trembled. When he looked up again, he realized that the old man in front of him had already left.
In a dojo at the back mountain of the imperial palace …
The old man in the Taoist robe stood with his hands clasped behind his back. His figure was frail as he looked at the palace from afar. Tears welled up in the corners of his eyes.
"Late Emperor, I don't have much time left!"
"Our Great Sect's court has been corrupt for a long time. In addition, the Young Master is weak. The Eight Kings all intend to rebel. We have millions of soldiers, and the enemy Qing Kingdom is eager to move. Our Great Sect's thousand-year foundation is shaky in the wind and rain …"
The old man coughed violently like an old man with one foot in the grave, but there was a hint of a smile in his eyes. "I have spent my entire life studying the mysteries of heaven, and I have spent twenty years of my life to find a chance of survival for my sect! “
At this point, he knelt down heavily in front of the Imperial Mausoleum. "Please forgive this old official for letting the Empress Dowager take the risk alone. It's because the survival of the Da Dynasty lies above the Empress Dowager's trip! “
"The Emperor Star falls to the south, and the True Dragon returns to the leaf!!!"
…
Late at night, You Province, King Langya Palace.
In the darkness, there were countless killing intents, and the smell of blood almost filled the entire Langya County.
Heads rolled and blood flowed!
As King Langya recovered from his injuries, the entire Langya County was in a purge. Countless people with ulterior motives were killed!
Ye Chen sat at the banquet that King Langya had arranged while carrying his daughter. He lowered his head and peeled oranges for his daughter.
Sitting opposite him was the woman in black. She was still dressed in black, and she still wore a veil on her face. Even so, she was still spotless.
However, the latter would look at Ye Chen and his daughter from time to time. When she looked at Mengmeng, there was a flash of love in her eyes.
Xue Ying stayed by her side the entire time and did not say a word. Meanwhile, Ye Chen was not someone to talk to for no reason. At that moment, the atmosphere in the hall was a little awkward.
After a while, the woman in black could not help but ask, "Mr. Ye, why haven't I seen your wife?"
It could be said that the Empress Dowager was most curious about Ye Chen now.
When she first saw Ye Chen, she thought that he was just a Pseudo Emperor Stage body cultivator. If not for King Langya, why would she lower her status to beg Ye Chen?
However, when the Bright Sword Pavilion and the other three sects rebelled, Ye Chen resolved the crisis for her in an extremely domineering manner under such a dangerous situation.
Those who had never experienced the ups and downs and the state of mind of escaping death would not be able to understand it.
Especially Ye Chen's decisive style of doing things, it shocked her deeply.
Therefore, she could not help but be curious about Ye Chen's identity. At the end of the day, she was just a woman who had just turned 20.
"My wife isn't here!"
Ye Chen replied by instinct. Subsequently, he seemed to have thought of something and lifted his head to look at the woman, "If you can return to the palace safely, can you do me a favor?"
"Mr. Ye, please tell me. I can do it. I … I'll definitely do it!" The woman in black said in a clear voice.
"I've been separated from my wife. I don't know where she is now. I came out this time to look for her!"
Ye Chen said slowly, "Your dynasty is considered an overlord in the north. Naturally, I can't compare to your power. Therefore, I want you to help me ask around!"
This was also one of the reasons why he saved her. After all, he was unfamiliar with the Ancient Barren World!
"This doesn't count as help. When I return to the capital, I'll get someone to investigate for you!"
The lady in black nodded and said hesitantly, "May I ask how many wives Mr. Ye has?"
"Just one!" Ye Chen said.
The former could not help but take another look at Ye Chen after hearing that, "An outstanding person like Mr. Ye only married one woman. He's quite devoted!"
She didn't mean anything by asking this. After all, in the Ancient Barren World, men often had multiple wives and concubines.
Let alone a powerhouse like Ye Chen.
At this time, the little fellow who was eating suddenly said, "Auntie, many women like my daddy."
"Is that so?" The woman in black was caught off guard and didn't know how to respond to her words.
"Of course!"
The little fellow raised her chin and said proudly, "There are many women who like my father, but my father doesn't dare to accept them! “
"Because if Daddy finds another woman, Mommy will put her on the washboard! “
Ye Chen could not help but cough when he heard that. He gave her a knock on the head, "Kids, don't talk nonsense!"
"That's right!"
The little girl took a hit and said aggrievedly, "Last time, I secretly saw you kneeling on the washboard …"
Ye Chen was almost angered to death.
On the other hand, the lady in black's eyes lit up. She said in surprise, "Men don't kneel to the sky or the ground. They only kneel to their parents and kings. What's this washboard? It actually made Mr. Ye bend his back for it? "
"That's right …"
The little fellow was about to speak.
His expression changed drastically as he said, "Empress Dowager, I've just received news that there's an army from the east of Youzhou heading towards Langya County!"
