"Palace? What are we going to the palace for?"

Zhou Xiaoyu said in confusion.

"When I meet an old friend, I will use the court to deal with some things."

Xia Fan thought casually.

"……All right."

Zhou Xiaoyu couldn't help but mutter in a low voice when he heard this.

She knows.

Xia Fan will be busy with work in the following days and will not have more time to spend with him in the future.

"In the lower Guo Quan, the last general Hei Gan, pay homage to Lord Xia!"

When Xia Fan and others led the horse all the way to the gate of the palace.

The court seemed to be prepared for a long time.

I saw rows of men with strong and sharp armor standing near the street, and two people stood in the middle of the street.

An old man in a blue shirt.

A black-faced man in armor.

But after they saw Xia Fan walking from far to near, they immediately bowed and greeted each other.

"Let's go, take me to meet Chen Xu."

Xia Fan did not talk nonsense with the other party and went straight to the point.

"Your Majesty has been waiting for Lord Xia for a long time."

The two of them said with a serious and respectful face, and then they led Xia Fan to the palace without saying a word.

On the way.

Neither of them communicated.

The atmosphere is quite dull.

But Xia Fan observed the newly built imperial palace as if nothing had happened.

The palace is very empty and quiet.

Apart from the guards on duty, there was no one else to see. It was probably because Chen Xu had intentionally transferred irrelevant people.

moment.

Xia Fan was stepping into the main hall of the palace.

As expected.,

There was only Chen Xu wearing a black imperial robe in the main hall.

He did not sit on the throne.

Instead, he stood under the throne.

When he saw Xia Fan walking into the hall, he bowed to Xia Fan without hesitation.

"I've seen Senior Xia."

"You guys go out first, I have something to talk about with him."

Xia Fan gently pointed his head, then turned his head and said to Zhou Xiaoyu, Bai Feiyan and the others.

"Um……"

Zhou Xiaoyu nodded sensible and obediently.

Turning around and walking out of the hall with Bai Feiyan.

"Old Guo, Uncle Hei, you guys go down too."

Chen Xu slowly raised his head and looked at the old man in green clothes and the man in black face at the door and said.

"yes!"

The old man and the black-faced man are very straightforward.

After bowing, he left the hall.

When only Xia Fan and Chen Xu were left in the hall.

Xia Fan waved his hand casually.

All the doors and windows of the hall were closed.

And his eyes were all on Chen Xu from beginning to end.

"I have to say that luck is so good. I thought I had just saved an ordinary son of a prince, but I didn't expect that one day you will become the emperor."

"...Senior, in fact, I didn't expect how I became this emperor."

Now that Chen Xu has lost his tenderness and youth, he has long become a mature and majestic young man. Facing Xia Fan's feelings, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"In addition to relying on one's own struggle, one must also consider the historical process. Since fate has appointed you as the emperor, you can't do anything about it."

Xia Fan shrugged.

“……Senior is joking again.”

Chen Xu said helplessly.

"By the way, how do you feel after becoming this emperor?"

Xia Fan suddenly appeared on the imperial chair. He sat in this highest seat in the human world and twisted his body casually, feeling the taste of the so-called imperial chair carefully curiously.

Although this chair is a bit large, it is not very comfortable to sit.

"...I used to think that after becoming emperor, I could change the world according to my own ideas, but the fact is that I am too naive. When you really sit in this position, you will find that you will be unable to control many things..."

Talking about how you feel to be an emperor.

Chen Xu was a little hard to describe.

In order to maintain his majesty as an emperor.

These words.

He can't talk to the people around him at will.

But Xia Fan is different.

In front of him, Chen Xu didn't need to worry about anything at all.

Because he, an emperor, is not worth mentioning in front of a person like Xia Fan.

"The profession of the emperor looks glorious on the surface, but in fact it is the most dangerous profession. If you don't have any ability and skills, you can't sit steadily on the throne, and you even have to worry every day..."

Xia Fan shook his head and said with a smile.

"But your luck is good. With your father and Tianmen helping you build this country, even if you are a mediocre king, it will be fine."

"But I always want to do more for the people of this world, otherwise I will find it difficult to be at ease in my heart."

Chen Xu sighed lightly.

"Chen Xu, do you remember why you broke into Qingping Mountain back then?"

Xia Fan suddenly said.

"I naturally remember that I was overestimating my abilities at that time, I wanted to ask my seniors to come out to help the world."

Chen Xu smiled bitterly again.

"I promised you."

Xia Fan said lightly.

"What?"

Chen Xu was stunned when he heard this.

"Now, I agree to your request back then." Xia Fan smiled. "Otherwise, why do you think I came to you for?"

“…Senior, are you saying true?”

Chen Xu said in disbelief.

"Next I'm going to tell you something. After you hear it, you will know why I want to help you..."

Xia Fan was not too eager to speak slowly.

Then.

He told Chen Xu about the matter of Tianmen and the soul descending to heaven and man, as well as his plans.

He said this.

It's nothing more than wanting to meet Chen Xu honestly.
