Chapter 866: Covering your face and walking away in shame
"Ah...Zhenxuan, you're here..." After seeing Zhang Zhenxuan coming, His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu somewhat awkwardly let go of Tang Jian's neck: "Well...I was just exchanging ideas on capturing with Lord Tang."
"..." After listening to the explanation of His Royal Highness the King of Chu, Zhang Zhenxuan sheathed his sword awkwardly: "I'm glad you're okay. I thought you had already started a fight with someone..."
"Hasn't this already happened?" Before His Royal Highness the King of Chu could speak, Tang Jian on the side had already stood up and bowed to Zhang Zhenxuan: "Little Heavenly Master, I have long admired you."
"Mr. Tang." Zhang Zhenxuan also hurriedly returned the greeting upon seeing this: "It was Zhenxuan who was rude just now..."
"Oh, I have so many talented people under my command." His Royal Highness the King of Chu looked at the scene and couldn't help but sigh: "What's the use of a mere Tiance Mansion? In the future, I will conquer a vast territory and build countless 'Chu Man Palaces' - so that the tyrant king will hide his face and run away in shame after seeing the plaque!"
"Your Highness, King of Chu, after hearing what you said, I feel so ashamed..." Tang Jian looked at the King of Chu who made a living by doing things. He shook his head helplessly: "If I had known this would happen... I should have let a wild boar eat me in Mount Li..."
His Royal Highness the King of Chu's life-saving grace...
Tang Jian really has not yet recovered from his disgrace... He still has not recovered from his disgrace...
"Lord Tang is a righteous man." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu had never expected that the other party would regard his rescue of the other party in Mount Li as so important.
"Your Highness, don't just act on your own will in the future. When you need to use some means, use them." Tang Jian didn't care about the compliments from His Highness the King of Chu. He was still worried about the heavy pressure that he would face in the future. "Also, we can't hide the fact that the little Tianshi has extraordinary fighting power, but if you meet a powerful retainer like him again in the future, we should hide it as much as possible. It can really come in handy at the critical moment. Do you understand?"
"Lord Tang..." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu frowned slightly upon hearing this: "Why do I feel like the people standing in front of me are Fan Zeng and Prime Minister Zhuge?"
"Ancestor...'Chu Adou'! You thought I said everything, or I said nothing..." Tang Jian couldn't bear such a big cause and effect.
"Alas... you are cursing again." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu said that he really couldn't play well with this old man: "Forget it, Lord Tang, since the matter has been resolved, I will not bother you anymore. Zhenxuan, let's go."
"Your Highness..." Zhang Zhenxuan glanced at His Highness the Prince of Chu, then bowed to Tang Jian again: "Lord Tang..."
"Little Heavenly Master, please don't be polite to me." Tang Jian smiled and replied to Zhang Zhenxuan, then he frowned and glanced at a certain barbarian king: "Don't make trouble anymore - no matter what rumors you hear, just stay in the palace. I and others are not decorations, you don't need to do everything for me."
"Ah... well then..." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu was really flattered: "Lord Tang, since you said so, then I will just not care about anything and leave everything to you."
"If Your Highness can think this way, then we are not so sincere to the wrong person." Tang Jian sighed when he heard this - in fact, Li Kuan didn't know at all that in the court today, no matter whether it is civil officials or military generals, no matter whether it is the old people of Tian Ce Mansion or the new nobles in the temple, everyone is tacitly abiding by the same rule: that is, don't mess with the King of Chu!
Because the current experience of His Royal Highness the King of Chu... is very similar to that of a certain General Tiance who was trapped in Chang'an for five years.
However, His Royal Highness the King of Chu has not yet made any decent counterattack. To some extent, this is already a miracle...
-------------------------------------
"Your Highness, where are you taking me?" After leaving the Honglu Temple, His Highness the Prince of Chu planned to take Zhang Zhenxuan to the house in Yong'anfang to see the results of his recent days. Zhang Zhenxuan was obviously not very interested in that useless "fireworks": "When did you become interested in alchemy?"
"Zhenxuan, since you're here now, why don't you take a look before you leave?" His Royal Highness the King of Chu saw that Zhang Zhenxuan seemed to be in a bad mood, so he stopped and looked at him seriously: "What's wrong? Why do you look so discouraged?"
"Your Highness, I think even Lord Tang..." Zhang Zhenxuan was halfway through his words when he realized something was wrong, so he changed his words and said, "I just think that Your Highness is working too hard..."
"Actually, Zhenxuan, I know what you're thinking." Standing on the crowded street, His Royal Highness the King of Chu looked at the Anhua Gate at the end of the street and sighed, "Zhenxuan, actually, I'm not that tolerant. Just like my father, before he opened the Xuanwu Gate, he must have imagined countless times in his mind the scene of killing my uncle and that bastard fourth uncle - but I don't dare to think about it, do you know why?"
"Your Highness...has a filial heart." Zhang Zhenxuan hesitated after hearing this and said, "So...hesitant?"
“Zhenxuan…” His Royal Highness the King of Chu sighed slightly when he saw Zhang Zhenxuan’s cautious answer: “Actually, you don’t have to think that I am so kind—I am actually afraid, afraid of disappointing my grandmother.
Zhen Xuan...if one day I do the same thing as that tyrant, I will also make him an emperor...haha...although I don't care what the history books say, I should prove something to the world, right? - I have to prove that it was the tyrant himself who was crooked and had nothing to do with my grandmother's education. After all, I am flawless."
"Your Highness, I understand." After listening to what His Royal Highness the King of Chu said, Zhang Zhenxuan nodded first, then sighed: "But you chose the most difficult path..."
"I am not afraid of a difficult road ahead." His Royal Highness the King of Chu laughed out loud upon hearing this: "I only hope that one day in the future... when I see my grandmother again, I can hold my head high and tell her that I am more promising than all the descendants of the Li family!"
That's enough.
"Your Highness, you will do it." Zhang Zhenxuan thought of what his great-grandfather had said to him before, and his belief became stronger: "I will accompany you..."
"You should accompany me to watch the fireworks first." His Royal Highness the King of Chu glanced at him and said, "I must stay in the palace on the day of the first day of the lunar year. You have to be responsible for the fireworks show at Yushan Villa..."
"Okay, then I will go with you to see the 'fireworks' you mentioned." Seeing that His Royal Highness the King of Chu was so serious, Zhang Zhenxuan nodded and decided to take the job.
