Proud Sword Rebirth

Chapter 0193 shocked all officials

"His Majesty the Emperor invites you, General Yi, please come this way." After receiving the soldier's reply, Lin Han led Yi Chen towards the huge golden palace.

It was noon at this time, and the sunlight was a little bit fierce, but it was not as fierce as the afternoon sun. Under the shining sunlight, the golden hall reflected a mixture of golden and white light, which itself was made eye-catching and atmospheric.

, solemn, gorgeous but not extravagant, this is the first impression given by the golden hall.

"It is worthy of being the only palace meeting hall after three thousand years." Yi Chen secretly nodded and praised in his heart. Although he had been invited to the palace many times in his previous life, with his appreciation ability, he could still distinguish the ones he had seen in his previous life.

The meeting hall was all outshone by the golden hall in front of me.

Follow Lin Han into the main hall. At this time, both sides of the main hall were filled with people, including civil and military officials, the emperor's soldiers, guards, palace maids, and eunuchs, all performing their duties. But as Yi Chen walked in, everyone turned their attention to him.

On the body.

He looked at everyone as if nothing had happened. Yi Chen showed no sign of stage fright. He was indifferent. There was nothing else on his face except indifference.

One step, two steps, three steps, getting closer and closer. Finally, he came to a distance of about ten feet in front of the stairs. He slowly raised his head. Yi Chen looked directly at the middle-aged man on the dragon chair. He still looked so plain.

He was so bland that no ripples could be seen. He seemed to be looking at an ordinary stranger with great interest.

The emperor, on the other hand, didn't have any anger at all, as if he didn't notice the rudeness of the young man in front of him at all.

Just because he was silent did not mean that others were silent. A middle-aged man standing in the second row to the right of Yi Chen immediately stood up. He was wearing a noble dress. It seemed that he should be a hereditary marquis, or a simple marquis. He looked at

Yi Chen scolded: "How brave! Not kneeling before His Majesty the Emperor is a crime of great disrespect!"

After he finished speaking, he waited for his usual friends and subordinates to come out to echo him, but he waited complacently for a long time, but no one came out to echo him.

He turned around to look at the crowd in confusion, only to find that everyone was looking at him as if he were an idiot.

"A bunch of bastards!" The middle-aged man was embarrassed and angry at the same time. If he hadn't been worried that this was the Jinluan Hall, he would have cursed loudly. Even so, his face was also very ugly, with a livid look on his face, and he looked at everyone again

It already had a hint of threat.

But this trick that had always worked well before failed to work this time, and the people around him quickly took a few steps back, as if they were afraid of having anything to do with him and wanted to draw a clear line with him.

Before he could figure it out, the emperor's voice came into his ears: "You bastard! How can you scold the distinguished guests I invited?"

The middle-aged man's face suddenly stiffened and he trembled. He turned around and said, "I, I just care about your majesty. I don't want this kid to damage the majesty of the royal family."

Unexpectedly, the emperor didn't listen to him at all. He looked impatient and waved his hands directly: "No need to say anything, I know what I know."

I thought that the emperor was not going to pursue this matter, but unexpectedly, the emperor squinted his eyes slightly and said: "Today's transgression must not go unpunished. Failure to punish is not enough to convince the public. Since I came to the throne, I have been the most insistent

Fair and fair, now that you have committed such a mistake, I have decided to ban you from all positions in the underground city, cancel your status as a marquis, and impose a penalty of thirty heavy sticks."

The middle-aged man, Jin Ke, was dumbfounded, completely dumbfounded.

As a marquis and the only son of Duke Jinlin, one of the four great dukes in the empire, how had he ever been punished like this?

He was wronged, he was aggrieved, he was angry, he was helpless, he had thousands of words to say, but he couldn't say them out. Looking at the emperor's expression, he knew that if he dared to say even half a word, he might not just cut his throat.

It’s as simple as removing the identity, position and thirty-weight stick.

But no matter what, he couldn't figure out why the emperor was so angry because of a mere half-year-old boy. He would rather offend the Duke of Golden Scales than punish him severely. Is there anything special about this boy?

It's a pity that Duke Jinlin did not go to court today, or in other words, recently, Duke Jinlin only came to court occasionally. I don't know why. He himself said that he was old and that he would be gone soon, but this nonsense can only be said by idiots.

Only then will you believe it.

"Come on, drag me down!" Without giving Jin Ke any extra chance, the emperor took action directly.

After Jin Ke loudly begged for mercy but was still ruthlessly pulled out of the golden hall, the emperor looked at Yi Chen seriously and asked, "Master Yi, are you satisfied with this punishment?" Unexpectedly, the emperor's name for Yi Chen, and

That intriguing attitude.

Mr. Yi, is there any young man in this world who deserves the title of emperor?

Even if they heard it with their own ears, everyone couldn't believe it. They thought they were hearing hallucinations. But looking at the expressions of everyone around them, they understood in their hearts that more than one person had auditory hallucinations in their relationship. Everyone was hearing hallucinations. Of course,

, auditory hallucinations, this is just self-deception. In fact, they all know in their hearts that the cry of "Mr. Yi" is indeed real.

And Yi Chen was also very plain. He did not show the complacency or other expressions that a young man should have because of this. Instead, he had a plain expression from beginning to end, and his calm eyes would not scare him even if the sky fell.

.

"It doesn't matter whether you are satisfied or not. If your majesty feels that he is not pleasing to your eyes, why not just take him out and kill him?" Yi Chen looked at the emperor Yingqi with deep thoughts, and he had already seen through the emperor's calculations in his heart. "Although the last deal

The debt may have to be settled on me, but I don’t have to refuse a favor from the royal family for this.”

Although he shouted "Your Majesty", everyone could not see that Yi Chen had any respect for the emperor, but treated him like an ordinary person. Even the tone was a little... mocking, yes, if they were sure that they had no ears.

question, then, they can be sure that this tone is indeed mocking.

Oh my god, this kid, this kid actually dares to mock the emperor, actually dares to talk to the current emperor of the Proud Sword Empire like this!

But the emperor's reaction made their jaws drop and they stared. The emperor looked at Yi Chen apologetically and said: "I didn't expect Mr. Yi to think so quickly and understand everything so clearly.

I'm afraid Young Master Yi has already figured out your thoughts, right?"

Without waiting for Yi Chen to answer, he added: "This time, I borrowed the help of Mr. Yi, and I have recorded this favor. However, there are too many people in the world who want to owe Mr. Yi a favor.

"It's my luck that I can owe you a favor." This tone was half joking and half serious, making everyone more and more confused and curious about Yi Chen's identity.

In fact, even Yi Chen himself didn't know why the emperor treated him like this. He could even feel that when the emperor looked at him, there was a hint of fear, a hint of flattery, and a hint of flattery, although such emotions were hidden very deeply by the emperor.

, but Yi Chen still felt it.

What is there about you that makes others fear you?

He couldn't help but think suspiciously: "Does he know that I have converted to the God Burial Art, and my cultivation level is no less than that of a seventh-level sword master, and my strength is no less than that of a ninth-level sword master?" Let alone outsiders who don't believe it, it's him.

I don’t believe it myself either.

But apart from this reason, he really couldn't think of any other reason. Wait...he suddenly thought of someone.

Outside the golden hall, a little girl sat boredly on a purple-tailed lizard, shaking her little feet, and the pleasant sound of copper bells rippled in the air, attracting the attention of many soldiers outside the golden hall. Such a cute and well-behaved little girl, really

Her cute little face alone conquered the hearts of countless people in an instant.

"Xiao Feng, now that I think about it, he is the only one." Thinking of Xiao Feng's various mysteries and Xiao Feng's strange behavior outside the tower base city, Yi Chen secretly guessed in his heart.

After carefully observing the emperor, Yi Chen secretly said: "Sure enough." The emperor's gaze would occasionally quietly cast outside the golden hall, as if he was expecting something, and seemed to be afraid of something. He was too hidden, and all the civil and military officials,

No one noticed his little move, not even Yi Chen just now. Only after careful guessing did he discover this.

"Xiaofeng's identity is too scary, isn't it? Even the emperor is so jealous?" Yi Chen became more curious about Xiaofeng, "The emperor just found out that I was staying with Xiaofeng, so he treated me so politely.

If Xiaofeng were to appear in person, the emperor might not be able to pretend to be so calm, right?"

Although he had an urge to give it a try, Yi Chen still did not take action. He continued the topic just now and said: "Your Majesty, I am just a commoner, there is nothing lucky or unlucky."

"Mr. Yi, you are not a commoner. Have you forgotten that you are already the general of the empire's new army? Moreover, this time I also grant you a hereditary marquis, no, a duke. I grant you the title of duke and give you the title.

A hereditary marquis can be passed down from generation to generation. What do you think, Mr. Yi?" The emperor's words were very grand, giving people the feeling that he valued Yi Chen very much, but Yi Chen could hear a tentative meaning in his words.

"As expected of an emperor, every word has a profound meaning, and every action has a special meaning. However, doesn't he feel tired with such a life?" Yi Chen sighed in his heart, and looked at the emperor with mixed eyes.

A trace of pity, in this world, the emperor is the most majestic person, but also the most pitiful person.

"I can temporarily hold the position of general, but as for the position of duke and hereditary marquis, please transfer it to my eldest brother Yi Sen." Yi Chen is not stupid. He doesn't need it himself, and it doesn't mean that others don't either.

Needing it doesn't mean that the family doesn't need it either. "In addition, the head of the Yi family is just a hereditary earl. Could you please give me some more advice?"

He was discussing business and price with the emperor, and what they were talking about was the aristocratic rank and position within the empire.

When everyone heard this, they almost burst into tears. You can't be so shameless!

The benefits promised by the emperor had already made countless people jealous and crazy, and they almost attacked Yi Chen and tore him into countless pieces. Now when they heard Yi Chen bargaining, they felt that they could hardly control themselves.

, they were afraid that they would lose control, so they joined forces to tear Yi Chen apart.

"Okay." Emperor Yingying nodded and agreed without even thinking about it. "I deeply think Master Yi's proposal is very good, so I agree."

"Nah... I really agreed... I'm so sad..." All civil and military officials cried out in their hearts. (To be continued.
