The elders' faces darkened; they knew something was wrong.
You were just having a friendly spar, how did you manage to cause such a commotion! Disturbing His Majesty's presence is practically courting death!
And this is happening at a time like this, where we can't even get away to deal with the aftermath. It's infuriating!
"What happened...?" Chen Fan sensed that something was wrong.
Something was off ever since that man appeared.
The elders exchanged glances, feeling somewhat guilty. It was over before it even began... They were all barely able to protect themselves, how could they dare to confess?
"My lord, we'll know once we go and see for ourselves." Murong Yan didn't know how to explain.
After saying that, they disappeared from the spot.
The many elders breathed a sigh of relief, drenched in sweat. It seemed that the Chen Lineage Murong Yan? Otherwise, he wouldn't have given them this feeling of powerlessness.
I thought I could strike before anything happened, but I never expected the speed to be so unexpected, and His Majesty to be so hasty in giving up his life!
And they just happened to run into them.
Realizing what had happened, he quickly went to check on them, completely losing his ancestral demeanor.
Chen Fan and Murong Yan had already arrived at the scene of the battle.
What I saw before my eyes.
Two people have fallen, and another young man is fighting against a powerful member of the royal family.
What's going on?
" Chen Jun, if you dare kill them, the Ancestor will never let you off!" The royal expert was furious.
He was watching them spar and compete, but who knew that two of them would fall in the blink of an eye! This is a serious matter, and he simply cannot bear this responsibility.
"Take him down!" the order was given immediately.
In an instant, a group of royal family experts surrounded them.
After killing the two men, Chen Jun remained indifferent and then collapsed to the ground. Since he couldn't escape anyway, why waste his energy? Besides, these people wouldn't dare kill him easily.
They were caught very quickly.
Upon hearing this, Chen Fan realized it was someone with the same surname! He had to be wary of his own people; it had become an occupational hazard for him.
With a casual wave of his hand, he scattered them.
The expressions of many royal family experts changed...
Upon seeing that it was His Majesty, they immediately stopped.
He knelt down on one knee, "Your Majesty."
They dared not say anything more and could only wait for the ancestors to arrive. They simply didn't know who the man who had made the move was.
Chen Jun quickly stood up and knelt down.
"His Majesty..."
He pondered to himself, someone who could get so close to His Majesty, practically holding hands... could it be...?
Dear Ancestor!
Murong Yan glanced around casually; she understood without even being asked.
"Get up." It has nothing to do with them.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Everyone stood up.
"Husband..." Murong Yan wanted to explain something, but she found Chen Fan staring at the young man named Chen Jun.
They were still staring at each other!
"..." I'm completely confused.
Husband? Chen Jun and the royal family experts were all stunned.
When the many patriarchs appeared, they were deeply saddened by the chaotic situation. They never expected that their attempt to pressure His Majesty would fail, and now their rear was also on fire.
Two more died?
He coughed up blood. He didn't know why, but it wasn't the time to ask. Fortunately, the plans had changed, so it didn't matter anymore. If he died, he died.
"Your Majesty, Patriarch Chen Lineage, please allow us to handle this matter."
There's no need for explanations; it's more important to let this matter slide and pretend it never happened.
Murong Yan didn't have a good solution for them either. "Husband, let's go."
" Chen Jun, a disciple of the Chen Lineage, greets the Ancestor!" At this moment, Chen Jun ran out directly.
Suppressing her excitement, her husband, the patriarch of the Chen Lineage! It was definitely him!
This is fate!
Upon hearing this, one could feel the air itself freeze.
hehe?
Chen Fan smiled. "Welcome, Hui people."
I never expected this! This time, I won't be coming back empty-handed again; I'm not used to that.
Regardless, I will protect this person!
"Madam, let's go."
Murong Yan nodded blankly. A disciple of the Chen Lineage? They can actually do that!
Everyone stared dumbfounded at the departing figures of His Majesty and the Chen Lineage Chen Lineage patriarch, no longer caring about the relationship between them.
They were only focused on studying Chen Jun.
Even the royal family experts were caught off guard; what had just happened?
The elders were incredulous. They had simply gone out and randomly grabbed someone! And they had actually captured Chen Lineage spy! The odds were terrifying!
No wonder Chen Jun wanted to kill those two...
Looking at Chen Jun beside him, he was still staring at them.
Chen Jun then grinned, dusted himself off, and said, "Esteemed ancestors, I shall take my leave now."
Get out of here quickly.
The elders watched in disbelief. This kid was truly... no, the Chen Lineage was truly damn strange.
Everything unfolded in a completely unexpected direction.
They exchanged a glance, and he said in a deep voice, "We cannot allow His Majesty to abdicate!"
Without the threat of the throne, Murong Yan would probably have run away immediately.
If he doesn't step down, at least there's still some connection; after all, he's already out of control.
They've wasted their time.
Inside the magnificent, golden hall.
This is the emperor's sleeping quarters.
After hearing Murong Yan's explanation, Chen Fan's expression became somewhat strange.
So that's what happened. No wonder Chen Jun killed those two...
But royalty is a real problem.
Compared to a typical Lineage, its internal structure and rules are more complex.
Of course, this is also because Murong Yan is an empress.
Therefore, this is the source of the cause and effect and contradictions surrounding this wife.
Then his expression turned cold.
They don't cause trouble, but he wants to! We'll definitely give them a taste of their own medicine and get everything back.
He respects royal rules, but he doesn't have to adhere to martial ethics...
"My lord, what would you say if I abdicated?" Murong Yan had already changed into imperial attire.
The skin set against the black golden dragon robe is as bright as frost and snow. The palace-style bun and gold hairpin as well as the palace-style posture make her look dignified and generous. But because of her temperament, this dignified charm is even more domineering.
She was leaning against Chen Fan's chest at that moment.
Chen Fan wasn't surprised at all. He grasped her fair and slender hand.
"Madam, you may do as you please."
Murong Yan hesitated slightly, then gently raised her head and saw her husband's chin. "But what about the dowry..."
After abdicating, her dowry was gone.
But now, she's grown tired of royalty; perhaps it would be better for her to be a full-time mother, just like Ling Qingcheng and Chiyao.
Chen Fan glanced at her pretty face. "It's alright. Your abdication won't affect your status. Your dowry will still be your dowry..."
The meaning is clear: to be a hands-off manager. As for the Dilo Sacred Dynasty, what difference does it make if it doesn't need an emperor?
Murong Yan softly hummed in agreement.
With her departure, the Dilo Sacred Dynasty had no choice but to accept her as part of their dowry. Otherwise, their status would inevitably plummet...
It's just in case something unexpected happens.
Then she felt that she understood her husband in the Chen Lineage.
Meanwhile, in the Dilo Sacred Dynasty, in her palace, her husband may not yet know anything about her or anything around her...
She said seriously, "Husband, let's rest early..."
Chen Fan thought to himself, "Your territory is being treated like this by an emperor... Isn't that a huge loss?"
"My lady, please forgive my sin of deceiving the emperor."
Then.
Ten thousand words are omitted here.
The next day.
Murong Yan will be unable to attend the morning court session.
Chen Fan went directly to the ancestral home of the royal family.
"Esteemed ancestors, I challenge you all to a one-on-one duel..."
P. S.: Please urge me to update more and give me a reward. (I'll also set out a bowl.)
