Chapter 91: The Situation in the Imperial Capital
"Unconsciously, half a month has passed."
Chen Ye let out a soft laugh and then stretched her waist.
Xiao Dao... Now it should be said that Tian Dao, he is indeed the treasure of Hunyuan, the knife spirit awakened, bringing him into the conscious space, in such a short conversation, his injuries have been completely healed, and his physical condition is even better than before the battle with Yun Taixu.
Although the Xuan Qi realm itself has not improved, the level of Jiaolong's body has reached another level. Adding to that, the awakening of the knife spirit is what they call 'great difficulties will not die, and there must be good fortune afterwards', it's probably this principle, right?
If I'm blessed with good fortune, does that mean others will be unlucky?
"Crack!"
The door of the room was gently opened, and when they saw the person in the house, their spirits lifted, and the whole person was filled with a lazy state. The crowd that had been waiting for a long time suddenly cheered!
"Master, you're finally alright." Outside the door, Xiaoyao was sobbing uncontrollably.
Chen Ye smiled and gently pinched Xiao Yan's nose. During this time, his family members and brothers would not be better off than him.
"Chen Ye, you really didn't disappoint us!" Ye Shuo and Tie Yitian burst out laughing, taking the lead to welcome him with open arms, tightly hugging Chen Ye, who could feel their excitement.
"Don't worry about it, brothers!"
Chen Ye also patted them on the back, and after letting go, he immediately came to Lao Yezi and others, calling out to a few people before he couldn't say much more.
Between loved ones, there's no need to say much. The meaning is understood, and others will get it too. As for what loved ones do, many people might think it's a given, but in their hearts, they know the pressure they're bearing during this time is hard to put into words!
The emperor even dares to openly send people to kill him, so for the entire Chen family's oppression, it will be even more severe!
During this time, although I was hovering between life and death, these people at home would not be any more relaxed than me.
"As long as you're fine, everything else doesn't matter." After a long time, Old Man Chen pressed down on Chen Ye's shoulder, the force of which made Chen Ye's heart feel a chill.
"Grandpa..."
Old Man Chen waved his hand, cutting off Chen Ye's words, "Not only are we waiting for you, but the one in the imperial palace is also waiting..."
"Grandpa, wait a minute!"
The night of the day slowly closes his eyes, carefully recalling the memories of the past!
They say that changing one's fate is actually starting all over again, and the fate has already changed because of what you do and what you say, which are all different from before. The trajectory of fate will naturally undergo many changes.
It's been a year and the situation in the Imperial City is no longer what it used to be.
The old man can have an attitude of going to war, and Zhenye's heart is naturally very happy. As long as the old man makes a move, then believe that the royal family will still be helpless against the Zhen family. However, this was just a previous idea, Yun Taixu...
Seemingly noticing Chen Ye's concern, Old Man Chen smiled faintly and said, "With just Yun Taixu alone, there's really no need to worry!"
When he heard this, Chen Ye was even more shocked. With Yun Taixu's cultivation, looking at the entire Imperial City of Emperor's Capital, there were only a handful of existences that could be counted on one's fingers. Such a master, even with the imperial family's powerful background, would have to be treated as an honored guest, yet he was not taken seriously by Old Master.
That is to say, Lao Yezi has a certain degree of confidence in dealing with Yun Taixu!
What is it that worries you, old master?
At this point, Chen Ye asked on horseback: "Grandfather, what is the current situation in the imperial capital? And I want to know more about what you will do next, Grandfather?"
This time, he almost died himself. Needless to say, every single person in the household was holding their breath, even the old master had a murderous aura about him. It's easy to imagine that a storm is brewing, but it can't be denied that just because of this, they would go to war with the imperial family. Not to mention whether they could get enough support, or win, and after one victory, whether they could safely obtain the entire Chen family was also an unknown number!
Although Chen Ye was confident, he wasn't arrogant enough to think that the current Chen family had the power to overthrow and replace the imperial family!
One misstep would lead the entire Chen family to a point of no return, as far as Chen Ye knew, the Chen family only had the power to counterattack and deter the imperial family, nothing more!
With the prestige of the old master, it may be possible to mobilize half of the imperial army's strength, but the emperor is the ruler. If a rebellion is to be staged, there must be sufficient and strong reasons, otherwise, these soldiers will not have much confidence in their hearts.
The army is unstable, no matter how high-ranking and brilliant the commander is, it's hard to lead such an army to continuous victories!
Although this is a world where strength is supreme, in the secular people's concept, especially in a country ruled by imperial power, the idea of "the king is heaven" is still quite serious. To put it bluntly, the cultivation of the Chen family's masters is far from making people dare not to resist.
"I understand what you mean, Master Chen," said the old man in a deep voice. "We won't bother with those big shots for now. They don't even have the qualifications to participate. In this one and a half months, the imperial palace has been quite calm, and they haven't made any moves against my Chen family's aggressive advances."
"Of course, it's not that they're afraid, maybe they just know they're in the wrong!"
Grandfather Chen sneered and continued, "Because of Yun Taixu's appearance, I finally understand that the imperial family's preparations have been sufficient all along. What the emperor lacks is just a most suitable opportunity."
As soon as he heard this, Chen Ye's expression was greatly shocked. At that time when the Chen family was destroyed, that reason was something that no one in the world could refuse!
Chen Ye didn't know at the moment whether the Emperor was brewing up a similar reason, but the current situation was not to be underestimated. Rebellion, although not as irresistible as that reason, could still make a large number of people hesitant!
"Exactly!"
Grandfather Chen looked at Chen Ye, with a deep sense of guilt in his expression: "At present, the only thing Grandfather can do is to force the Emperor to give the Chen family an explanation. As for more things, it's not something that can be done. However, Ye'er, you can rest assured that as soon as Yun Taixu leaves the Imperial City, Grandfather will immediately strike him down!"
"Grandpa, don't!"
Chen Ye didn't know, now it's really not the time to completely turn against the royal family. Grandfather's tolerance, he fully agrees with it. The emperor is waiting for the right opportunity, isn't Chen Ye giving himself enough time?
Just let the royal family bow their heads temporarily, that's enough, and leave the rest for later, to slowly settle accounts with them. As for Yun Taixu...
"Grandpa, he's too good for me, I want to keep him for myself!"
It's not that Chen Ye wanted to show off, but rather, with Yun Taixu's cultivation, if he were to be killed by Lao Yezi at this moment, perhaps it would also be a fuse of great magnitude.
When I come back stronger one day, all those who have been targeting the Chen family will...
"Old Master Wang, Chen Ye said it's not bad, Yun Tai Yu, let's just keep it for now!" Tie Yi Tian said coldly.
Ye Shuo smiled and said, "We three brothers are not like others. We don't need our family to always stand up for us. Those who have wronged us will naturally make us angry in our hearts, but this anger is exactly what drives us forward. Leaving Yun Taixu behind is also a reminder to the Emperor that when old accounts are settled, it's time for him to pay the price for everything."
"This may be a reminder to the emperor, but it is more of an intimidation, even... a threat. Before this, he must be made to feel uneasy at all times!"
Three brothers on a night of Chen, looked at each other and smiled, all having unmatched confidence!
As they watched the three of them, Old Man Chen and the others couldn't help but laugh with relief. The fierce tiger that people can see is not scary at all; it's the venomous snake hiding in the woods that's truly terrifying.
"Your Highness, Princess Xuanling is outside the mansion, and there's also a girl named Chang Weiran, they want to see Young Master!"
