The demon world I designed

Chapter 39. Am I so popular?

"Is it... the Duke of Song who brought me into the palace the day before yesterday?" Chen Qing said in a daze.

Concubine Dong was amused by the other party's silly smile: "Besides him, who else is the Duke of Song in this world?"

Chen Qing looked outside in silence. The weather today was particularly good, but the news was really particularly cold...

Sudden death?

Tsk...

A Tiangang magician who can teleport several people at will, who is almost at the spiritual level, died suddenly?

Chen Qing couldn't help but drink a sip of hot tea, but he always felt that no matter how hot the tea was, it couldn't warm up his heart, which was a little scary and cold at this time.

After all, it was the king...

The title of Duke of Song, he, a countryman, had heard a lot. Judging from the court situation occasionally revealed by Wang Ye, the role of Liu Yu, the Duke of Song, was even more important, and in terms of strength alone, he was probably the top of the human race.

But such a person, just disappears like that...

Chen Qing felt a little suffocated, and always felt that there seemed to be not much time left for him...

Dong Guifei observed Chen Qing, and saw that although his face was not good, he did not show an overly panicked expression, and nodded slightly.

He is a boy who can keep his composure, not bad...

"Oh, let's not talk about these scary things..." Dong Guifei looked outside: "Xue'er is here..."

"Huh?" Chen Qing was stunned, and hurriedly looked over, and the next moment he felt rude, and hurriedly lowered his head to drink tea to cover it up.

Dong Guifei laughed at this scene. Even if he was scheming, he was still a young boy who had not experienced anything.

"Greetings, mother!"

Princess Xiao Mingxue walked very ladylike. It took her nearly half a minute to walk over from a distance. Chen Qing felt that he had finished his tea and it was difficult to refill it, so he chewed the tea leaves for fun. When he heard the voice, he stood up quickly: "Greetings, Princess."

Xiao Mingxue quickly glanced at Chen Qing, then quickly lowered her head, blushed and said in return: "Mr. Chen, no need to be polite."

Mother was right, he was indeed fair-skinned, although not as good-looking as Cui Yan...

She was relieved immediately. After receiving the news, she asked around a little. She heard Fei Jun say that he was a very capable young man, but Fei Jun, that wooden idiot, didn't understand the mind of a girl at all. Capable people don't necessarily look good.

Yuchi Peng was still capable. He defeated his father at the age of seventeen and inherited the title, but he was recognized as ugly.

Chen Qing also quickly glanced at him, and his heart skipped a beat.

As a straight man, his mind is relatively simple, and he doesn't think as much as the princess...

So what name should we give the child?

"Oh, the weather is really good today!" Concubine Dong stood up with a smile, touched her belly and said: "The imperial physician said that my fetus is too big, so I need to walk more. You can talk by yourselves."

"Mother?" Xiao Mingxue was panicked. Is mother planning to leave her here?

Chen Qing quickly bowed: "Student sends you off."

"It's still early, let's talk more..." Concubine Dong smiled and said: "Otherwise, we won't see each other for a long time after this departure."

Chen Qing was stunned when he heard this. Oh, I forgot about this. I'm afraid I have to wait for three years for the child...

——

The news of Liu Yu's sudden death has set off a storm in the capital. No matter which camp, whether civil or military, no one expected this to happen!

After leaving their duties, all the civil and military officials went to the Duke of Song's mansion to pay their respects.

Duke Song had no son, so the royal family handled his funeral after his death. The ceremony was quite grand, with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in charge, and the other princes in charge of entertaining the guests. This was a great honor.

But such an honor still couldn't suppress the chill that Liu Yu's sudden death brought to everyone.

Outside the hall, civil and military officials sat in the same place. The civil and military officials who always quarreled when they met were unusually harmonious at this moment. They all drank in silence, with gloomy faces.

Almost all the nine ministers were present. They were all elegant old men with white beards, but they drank one cup after another like military generals.

No one around dared to persuade him. Those of lower rank didn't dare, and those of the same rank understood his feelings and didn't want to persuade him.

Most of the nine ministers in power today are well-known sorcerers of the previous dynasty. They were the ones that the emperor came to one by one, convinced them with his charm, and asked them to come out of retirement. But in fact, they all knew that Liu Yu was the one who pulled the strings.

The Jin Dynasty built the new capital in just one year. Although its scale is not as grand as Tiandu, its structure and strength of magic are not inferior to the thousand-year-old ancient city of Tiandu.

Such a huge project can be so smooth because Liu Yu persuaded a large number of magicians to serve the royal family. It is also because of Liu Yu's means that the Xiao family can rely on the civil officials established by the magician group to check and balance the arrogant blood family.

But such a person with great contributions is gone?

After drinking a cup of wine, the hot feeling surged in my heart, but I still couldn't get rid of the chill in my heart.

The military generals were also silent.

Most of the nobles had complicated feelings about Liu Yu. On the one hand, Liu Yu, as the only civil official, was basically the spiritual leader of the magician group and was used by the emperor to check and balance their blood family. But on the other hand, when they were fighting for the world, this weak magician was on the front line, making plans and helping countless military generals win difficult battles. They were like comrades in arms!

This also led to the fact that even the most rebellious generals could not be arrogant when facing Liu Yu, because everyone who had come into contact with Liu Yu knew his abilities, and there was no one who did not admire him a little in their hearts.

People who wanted to encourage Qin Guogong to rebel thought Liu Yu was the biggest obstacle, but now that he was suddenly gone, those people felt empty in their hearts.

The emperor... is so cruel...

"Young Minister of Dali Temple, Wang Ye is here!"

Names were announced at the door to welcome guests, and everyone looked over.

In terms of status, Wang Ye is the most qualified to preside over Liu Yu's funeral, but the royal family does not seem to include him in the list of hosts. It does feel a bit strange that his closest disciple comes to express condolences as a guest.

"Wang Shaoqing is here?" The prince in mourning clothes greeted him personally. Judging from his face, the prince's body still seemed to have not recovered and he looked very weak. However, he had been taking care of Liu Yu's posthumous affairs since yesterday. There was no rest, everyone saw it, and couldn't find anything wrong with it.

"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince." Wang Ye bowed and saluted, his expression neither happy nor sad, just like a casual guest who came to express his condolences.

"Shaoqing came here right after he got off duty, right?" The prince gave Wang Ye a hand and said, "Come and put some incense."

Wang Ye nodded, and after seeing the ceremony with other adults, he slowly walked to the mourning hall and burned incense to worship.

Wang Ye's cold expression made many officials couldn't help but talk about it. After all, he was Song Guogong's only direct disciple. Such coldness was completely different from the prince's dedicated attitude. Song Guogong was really mistaken.

The senior official who knew a little bit about the inside story looked at Wang Ye with a somewhat complicated look.

Liu Yu was obviously involved in something that made the emperor jealous, so he ended up like this, but what about Wang Ye? The emperor could attack Liu Yu, so why would he keep his apprentice?

"Prefect of Liuzhou, Chen Qing has arrived!"

oh?

Another name that attracted everyone, instantly causing many people to focus their attention on Wang Ye.

In the local area, a prefect is approaching the level of a feudal official, but in the capital, he is really just a low-ranking official.

Theoretically speaking, if he had no friendship with Song Guogong, this little guy named Chen Qing wouldn't even be qualified to offer incense.

Anyone who knows the inside story knows that the recent turmoil seems to have started with this young man...

"Master Chen is here too?"

The prince is still enthusiastic, and he is very courteous and corporal. Whether he is treating a minister or Chen Qing, a fourth-rank official, he treats him in a normal way, and he seems to have the magnanimity of a prince.

"By the way, didn't Mr. Chen meet the orphaned imperial sister in the palace?" The prince approached and whispered with an ambiguous smile.

I don’t know, looking at this, I thought the relationship between the two of them was very close.

Chen Qing saw an uncomfortable coldness in the other person's eyes.

I thought that I would also like to get closer to your sister, but I am not good at picking up girls. I couldn't even let out a fart after holding it in for a long time. The two of them chatted awkwardly for a while and then left quickly.

I originally wanted to run away directly, but when I was passing by North Street, I suddenly remembered that Song Guogong's errands should be taking care of things, so I thought of coming over to burn incense. After all, it was a bit of a blessing.

"I am friends with Lord Wang. Now that Lord Wang's master has passed away, as a junior, it is natural for me to come and pay my respects. By the way, is His Highness the Crown Prince in good health?"

When the topic of the body was mentioned, the prince's smile that he had maintained all day suddenly broke his guard, and he looked at Chen Qing with a cold look.

Chen Qing curled his lips slightly when he saw this. Did he break his guard just like that? My acting skills are average...

He is not afraid of this so-called prince. After all, a eunuch prince will be a ghost if he can become the emperor.

The emperor betrothed his daughter to himself, but the condition was that he would raise a son...

But the child was not raised for the stupid prince in front of him. Maybe in the old emperor's expectation, the stupid prince would make way for his grandson in the future!

I have to say... royal relations are really messy.

Ignoring the prince anymore, Chen Qing went directly to the mourning hall. When she was offering incense, she saw Liu Yu with a calm face and eyes closed, and felt a little emotional.

This girl’s death is not worth it...

What would the old emperor think if he knew that he had given up such an arm, and the grandson he longed for in the end belonged to someone else?

Chen Qing had a good impression of Song Guogong. He was a very responsible elder. When he felt that something was going to happen, he immediately sent Yu Chipeng and Fei Jun away.

In fact, he takes good care of himself. Now that he thinks about it, the reason why he took the lead to enter the Yin-Yang Road in the first place was not that he had forgotten himself. I am afraid that he knew that this Yin-Yang Road would be a dead end, so he did it so urgently that the emperor could I didn't think of bringing myself in.

This can be seen from Wang Ye's ability to fix the Yin Yang Road barrier later. With Liu Yu's ability, there is no need to be in such a hurry.

"Have a good journey, Your Majesty..." Chen Qing muttered silently in her heart, and bowed three times before seriously offering incense.

After lighting the incense and preparing to sit down at the table, he noticed something was wrong. Even though he was a mortal, he could feel that everyone seemed to be observing him.

So...where should I sit?

"Master Chen..." A familiar voice sounded. Chen Qing quickly looked over and was stunned. It was Fei Jun. He stood up and waved: "Come and sit here."

Just as Chen Qing was about to nod, he heard another voice calling him not far away. Compared to Fei Jun's elegant and gentle voice, this voice was much more heroic. It was Yuchi Peng who was sitting to the north.

"Chen Qing, come here!" Yuchi Peng waved his hand: "Drink two drinks with me."

"Are you Chen Qing?"

Just when Chen Qing was confused about where to sit, another voice sounded.

However, this person made Chen Qing feel very strange. He had never seen him before.

He is a man who looks very thin, but he is wearing the same black clothes as the military commander.

"Why don't you come sit here with me?"

As soon as this man spoke, the surroundings fell into a strange silence, while Chen Qing was in a daze.

Are you... so popular?

Please pursue reading, please pursue reading, please pursue reading. Say important things three times, hehe.

Then let’s talk about the comment section. Authors generally don’t delete comments, even those who complain about works. I think it’s better to be more truthful in the comment section. Everyone has different tastes. Where there is praise, there will naturally be criticisms that they don’t like. , the Rubik's Cube doesn't seem to matter. Clicking in is just fate, and everyone should be happy.

However, there is one exception, and that is when posting in the comment area (advertisements for color websites.) In this case, the comment must be banned and deleted, because if it is not deleted in time, the author's books may be affected. When I just deleted a comment on a website , I found out that the other party also rewarded me with one dollar emmm

Sorry brother, although you supported this book, this thing really cannot be distributed! ! !
