"If anything happens to you, how will I explain this to your mother?"
Looking at her resentful look, Xiao Chen felt his scalp tingling.
He also didn't expect that Madam Lu would appear at the gate of the imperial city early in the morning. From what she said, it seemed as if she already knew something.
"Aunt Lu,"
"Why are you here?"
Xiao Chen smiled just the right way and said flatteringly, "Shouldn't you be resting in the mansion at this time?"
Madam Lu had a stern face and stared at Xiao Chen with her eyes, "Why am I here? Don't you see what you have done?"
"If it weren't for my Lu family's intelligence network passing on the information to me, how long would you have kept it a secret from me?"
"Think of it this way: your mother and I are sworn sisters, and I watched you grow up..."
"You actually took the risk of mobilizing troops without permission."
"What will I do if anything happens to you... How will I explain this to your mother?"
As she spoke, Mrs. Lu's eyes turned red and her voice became tearful...
"Stop, stop, stop,"
Xiao Chen's scalp tingled instantly, and he quickly raised his hand to admit his mistake:
"Aunt Lu, I was wrong..."
Regarding Mrs. Lu's method of crying, making a fuss, and looking for Xiao Chen's mother,
Xiao Chen knew it.
And he had no choice.
That's why he kept it a secret from Lu Hongluan.
After all, the fewer people who know about what happened last night, the better.
But he had also forgotten that although the Lu family was not as powerful as the Ye family in the military.
However, it also has its own intelligence system.
Xiao Chen mobilized troops yesterday. How could such a large-scale operation be hidden from her?
Instead of doing this, he might as well just admit his mistake.
As expected, Xiao Chen apologized.
Mrs. Lu's expression softened slightly.
“You!”
She tapped Xiao Chen's head with her jade hand, half scolding and half doting:
"Get in the carriage!"
"Don't hide anything. Tell me everything clearly, no matter how big or small."
"Do you know?"
"Hey!" Xiao Chen smiled and agreed.
But he felt a little happy in his heart: "Passed!"
Then he jumped lightly onto the carriage.
After the coachman helped him lift the curtain made of bright yellow satin, he got into the luxurious carriage.
......
Imperial Palace, Imperial Garden
Bang! Bang! Bang!
In a martial arts training ground shaded by a rockery, two figures were practicing against each other.
Both of them were fast.
Although I didn't use my true energy,
The sound of breaking through the air makes people feel scared.
If you look closer, you will see an old man in a Yin-Yang Taoist robe who only defends and never attacks.
The other old man, dressed in bright yellow clothes, only attacked but never defended.
After a while,
The thin old man in the Yin-Yang Taoist robe was defeated.
"Your Majesty is a master of martial arts. I, this old minister, accepts your defeat wholeheartedly."
Situ Wuming smiled and saluted.
Emperor Ming Jing chuckled, obviously in a good mood.
He threw the bamboo sword in his hand to the eunuch behind him, glanced at the old man and said, "Brother, you have regressed!"
"Back when we were learning martial arts at the Imperial Temple, you were the one who taught me this basic sword technique!"
Situ Wuming's eyes also flickered, with a hint of nostalgia: "Yes! I remember that when Your Majesty was seven years old, you went up the mountain to practice martial arts, claiming to inherit the aspirations of the Great Ancestor, to cleanse the world of its accumulated evils and bring order to the world."
"I was only fourteen at the time, and when I thought of your Majesty's heroic demeanor, I was filled with admiration."
"I will make up my mind to help His Majesty clean up the world and rebuild this mighty land!"
Emperor Ming Jing smiled, obviously enjoying Situ Wuming's flattery.
He grabbed a wet towel and wiped his face, then walked towards the Imperial Garden with Situ Wuming. "What do you think of today's morning court?"
Situ Wuming's eyes flashed, and he asked, "I wonder what your majesty is asking?"
Old fox!
When Emperor Ming Jing saw Situ Wuming pretending to be stupid, he secretly cursed Situ Wuming as an old fox.
So he could only point out: "Xiao Jiu attracted the dragon energy of my dynasty today? Did you see it?"
The old scoundrel replied, "Your Majesty, I understand. If nothing unexpected happens, has His Highness the Ninth Prince awakened the ultimate dragon bone?"
yes!
yes!
Emperor Ming Jing glanced at him and said leisurely, "When I was seven years old, I broke through the bone forging stage and entered the Jiaolong Temple to inherit the Jiaolong painting. I obtained the top-grade Jiaolong bone and discovered Taizu's painting."
“Only then did I know that a thousand years ago, our great ancestor had already broken through the fifteenth realm and stood at the pinnacle of this divine martial world.”
"Furthermore, apart from this Shenwu World, the magic practices of the Ten Thousand Demons World and the witchcraft practices of the Witch Barbarian World are surprisingly not inferior to our Shenwu World, and are even better."
"Back then, when the Great Zhou was first established, everything was in ruins and needed to be rebuilt!"
"The millennium catastrophe has arrived again. With one nation battling two worlds, there will surely be heavy casualties."
"Taizu used his physical body to suppress the destiny of the Shenwu world, forcibly closing the connecting passages of the three worlds, and ending the thousand-year catastrophe."
"This kind of talent is what I admire!"
"From now on, I swear that I will spend my life clearing the universe and allowing my Great Zhou to span the three realms."
As he spoke, Emperor Ming Jing's eyes gradually brightened.
Everyone knows that the top-grade dragon bones awakened by the royal family's "Dragon Body Refining Method" are very powerful, but few people know that Emperor Ming Jing also awakened top-grade dragon bones in the past, and no one knows his current realm.
Even Situ Wuming shook his head slightly, secretly sighing at the strength of Taizu a thousand years ago.
He still played dumb: "What does your Majesty mean?"
