In the banquet hall of the Shen family, Shen Xudong sat on the main seat, and plates of exquisite dishes were served to the banquet.

"Chen Gongzi first arrived in Luoyang, how did he feel?"

He asked with a pleasant face, Gu Chen was sitting opposite him, tonight's banquet was specially prepared for Gu Chen.

"The imperial capital of Kyushu is full of flowers and is breathtaking. ”

Gu Chen responded with a smile.

"Although the imperial capital is prosperous, it is also noisy, I don't know where Chen Gongzi is?"

Shen Xudong asked seemingly casually.

As a national teacher, he has always been good at observing others.

Ever since he saw the spectacle of the stars in the White Sun at the True Martial Academy, he was full of curiosity and confusion about this ancient age.

He is rich in learning and thinks that his theory will never go wrong, but this old Gu subverts his theory.

The Great Martial King's battle body was obviously only a first-class physique, why could it trigger such a terrifying vision of heaven and earth?

This question has been haunting him for more than ten days, and now that the other party has finally moved into his mansion, he wants to test a thing or two.

"The younger generation has no fixed home, and the four seas are home. ”

Gu Chen couldn't see that this grandfather was deliberately testing himself, and replied that he should either avoid the important and light, or answer the wrong question.

Shen Xudong saw that he didn't take the bait, so he didn't ask, but talked about the royal family's sacrifice ceremony three days later.

"The festival is held only once every five years, and it is a grand ceremony for the entire empire. At that time, the royal family will invite the treasure Kunlun mirror to open the secret land of ten thousand dragons. ”

"At that time, the royal family and the guests who participated in the banquet of the princes will all have the opportunity to enter the secret land of ten thousand dragons. ”

"Chen Gongzi won the place of the prince's banquet because of the emperor's favor, which the prince tried his best to get, the opportunity can be said to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and there are some precautions to remember......"

Gu Chen had long known about the Kunlun Mirror from Qinglin Killing God, and now Shen Xudong talked about it again, and also focused on some unwritten rules to prevent Gu Chen from being confused about the situation.

Gu Chen could hear from his words that he emphasized the rarity of this opportunity and the efforts made by the crown prince Ji Zefang to this end.

"It seems that my grandfather is assisting the prince and wants to help him get the support of the heavenly court. If there is no accident, before and after the ceremony, the prince should come to me to talk to me in detail. ”

Gu Chen's heart was like a mirror.

The two were chatting, and the housekeeper of the Shen Mansion outside the hall walked in quickly and said a few words in Shen Xudong's ear.

"Huangfude, what is he doing at this hour?"

Shen Xudong's snow-white long eyebrows furrowed together.

Gu Chen's pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly, someone from the Huangfu family is here?

On the first day he lived in the Shen Mansion, someone from the Huangfu family appeared, is it a coincidence?

"Master, the other party said that there is an extremely important matter to discuss. ”

The butler replied.

"Then let him in. ”

Shen Xudong thought for a while and said.

The butler then withdrew from the hall, and not long after, he saw a middle-aged man in a brocade robe striding in, followed by an old servant.

Gu Chen's eyes couldn't help but narrow, that was Huangfude?

His divine sense spread out, and it could be roughly judged that Huangfude's cultivation was around the middle of immortality, but the old servant beside him couldn't see the slightest depth, as if he was just a mortal.

"Shen Guoshi, I hope you will forgive me for taking the liberty of disturbing me so late. Uh, who is this one?"

Huangfude greeted Shen Xudong with a smile, and then saw Gu Chen and was slightly surprised.

"It's so late, the virtuous nephew is here with the old man, I don't know what's the matter?"

Shen Xudong didn't answer Huang Fude's question, and he didn't smile.

Seeing his cold attitude, Huangfude was not angry, and smiled.

"The younger generation came late at night, it was at the emperor's behest and my father's instructions to come to inform the national teacher that after the ceremony of worshiping the heavens three days later, the emperor wanted to hold a royal wedding to let my nephew Qingming and Princess Lan Chu officially get married. ”

As soon as Huang Fude's words came out, the Shen family in the hall was taken aback, even Gu Chen's face couldn't help but freeze!

"Princess Lan Chu, didn't Princess Lan Chu run away from marriage and now she doesn't know where to go?"

Shen Xudong asked in surprise.

"Just a few days ago, my nephew had personally found the little princess Lan Chu and welcomed her back to Luoyang. ”

Huang Fude said with a smile.

Shen Xudong was silent for a while.

"National teacher, why don't you speak, is it difficult to hold a wedding?"

Huang Fude couldn't help but ask.

Shen Xudong came back to his senses and shook his head. "Isn't this wedding too anxious? Now that the whole court is doing their best to prepare for the ceremony, where can we allocate the manpower to organize the royal wedding?"

The old man suggested that the wedding be postponed, so that he could prepare well and ensure that nothing went wrong. ”

When Huang Fude heard this, he didn't refute it, but said: "What the national teacher said is extremely true, it is indeed too difficult to prepare for a wedding in such a short period of time, but you also know that rumors about Princess Lan Chu have been spreading in Kyushu in the past few months. ”

"The people of Kyushu all say that Princess Lanchu eloped with someone, although you and I both know that this is not true, but people's words are terrible, and the face of the royal family and my Huangfu family is damaged because of this. ”

"So the emperor thinks that the wedding should be held as soon as possible, so as to stop the mouths of good people and save the royal face. ”

"My father thought it was good, so it was settled. ”

"This matter will trouble the national teacher, negotiate with the relevant officials as soon as possible, and prepare the wedding properly. ”

Huang Fude said very clearly, this is what the emperor meant, naturally there is no reason to object, Shen Xudong can only nod. The old man understood, and he will discuss the matter with the official tomorrow. ”

"Now that the words have been brought, I won't disturb the national teacher to entertain the guests. ”

Huang Fude smiled and turned away with the old servant.

Until his back completely disappeared, the atmosphere in the hall was indescribably heavy.

"Dad, once the Huangfu family marries Princess Lanchu, I'm afraid it will be ......"

Gu Chen's uncle Shen Pengyuan couldn't help but say, because there was such an outsider as Gu Chen, he wanted to stop talking.

Gu Chen understood what he wanted to say, the Huangfu family was already in power, if Huangfu Qingming married Princess Lan Chu again, it would be even more remarkable to become a relative of the emperor.

"Lan Chu was actually caught......"

Gu Chen didn't know how to have mixed feelings in his heart.

Some time ago, he also received a letter from her, thinking that she had gone away and flew high, but he didn't expect to be arrested in the end.

He was inexplicably angry in his heart, thinking that Huang Fude had a lot to do with his father's disappearance, and he couldn't help but stand up.

"Shen Guoshi, everyone, since you have enough to drink and eat, the juniors will go back to the room to rest first. ”

Shen Xudong couldn't help but nodded, Huangfude brought such an explosive news, the Shen family needed to discuss it right now, the timing of Gu Chen's departure was just right, in their opinion, this was simply very interesting.

So Gu Chen left the banquet hall and walked towards his residence.
