Listening to Chen Jin's indignant voice, Chu Yanwu could not sit still.
As his eyes flashed, his eyes were full of entanglement and confusion, "Is there really something wrong with Xiao Chen?"
After thinking about it, he immediately ordered: "Send a message to the former imperial mausoleum immediately, and ask them to come back immediately regardless of whether the project is completed or not!"
Seeing that Chu Yanwu was finally enlightened, Chen Jin felt inexplicably relieved. He had tried his best to explain it a hundred times, but it finally had an effect.
He immediately agreed.
As Xiao Chen's carriage continued to move forward, the letter naturally could not be delivered to him. Instead, it was intercepted by someone Xiao Chen had arranged for it.
After two days and two nights of traveling, Xiao Chen and the others finally arrived at the palace, and the guards handed the letter to him immediately.
Xiao Chen frowned: "It seems that Chu Yanwu is more wary of us than before."
This trip was expected to take three days, but actually took nearly twice as long.
He glanced at the people behind him: "The next step is to work hard on everyone's cooperation."
Yun Cangyuan understood: "Don't worry, I will treat Hongluan as my own daughter."
Since he wants to hide his identity, it is most suitable to be Ji Hongluan's father.
Ji Hongluan also said confidently: "I will never let others see any flaws."
Xiao Chen raised the corners of his mouth slightly, cupped his hands again and said, "Thank you all."
After all, this matter was their own business, but they were willing to risk their lives to participate in it. Xiao Chen kept the feelings in his heart.
Needless to say, Xiao Chen went to meet Chu Yanwu in person as soon as he arrived at the palace.
It can be clearly felt that there are some emotional changes on the faces of Chu Yanwu and Chen Jin, faintly revealing strong dissatisfaction.
"Xiao Chen, if you don't come back, I will think that you plan to guard the tomb of the former emperor!"
Chu Yanwu put his palm on the table, his eyes full of wariness. Even if you are stupid, being brainwashed by Chen Jin's words every day will leave an impression on Chu Yanwu's heart.
Coupled with Xiao Chen's abnormal return time, Chu Yanwu's face became even more gloomy and ugly.
But the person involved cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, please calm down."
"The reason for the delay is because I encountered some minor troubles when I went to the former imperial mausoleum to handle matters."
Chu Yanwu narrowed his eyes slightly: "Then tell me, what kind of trouble can delay this for so long?"
"To be honest with you, Your Majesty, some people still have respect and love for the Emperor of Fist Dynasty, so they deliberately go against the slaves."
"In order to ensure your wisdom and kindness, the slaves cannot directly kill them. They can only find ways to appease their emotions, which wasted some time."
Anyway, the sky is high and the emperor is far away. Even if he made it up, would Chu Yanwu know it?
Adhering to the principle that a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, Xiao Chen looked sincere, as if he wanted to tear his heart out.
There seems to be some truth to what he said.
Chu Yanwu hesitated in his heart: "Could it be that he was really wronged?"
Chen Jin hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, you are just talking nonsense and have no evidence. You must not believe it."
This damn old eunuch!
Xiao Chen gritted his teeth slightly, but he didn't panic.
When he went to Yan Knife Valley, he also arranged for people to provide cover in advance near the imperial mausoleum of the former dynasty. Even if they really investigated, they would only find out what he said.
He immediately said loudly: "If your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can send someone to investigate thoroughly."
Chu Yanwu was not polite and immediately ordered to investigate.
Everything shows that Chu Yanwu is more wary of him than before.
Even if he didn't catch enough evidence to prove Xiao Chen's identity, the king's heart could not withstand the test and speculation.
Once Chu Yanwu has a grudge against Xiao Chen, the only thing that will greet him is death.
Feeling the sinister gaze, Xiao Chen suddenly stepped forward and said cheerfully: "Your Majesty, regarding the method of disposing of the corpses in the previous imperial mausoleum, I have a better idea."
Hearing this, Chu Yanwu became a little interested: "Tell me about it."
"Compared with the previous dumping of corpses in the wilderness, I think I can take out their corpses and turn them into ashes directly. This can also be regarded as an explanation to the people and refugees who died tragically due to the previous incident!"
This idea is extremely vicious.
Chu Yanwu frowned slightly, a little in disbelief.
After death, the most important thing is to rest in the grave so that the soul has a place to rest.
If the body is reduced to ashes, wouldn't it mean that it will become a lonely ghost?
Looking at Xiao Chen, his eyes showed a fierce light, even showing endless impatience.
I still feel that this evil idea is a bit untrue: "You actually have such deep resentment against the previous royal family?"
Xiao Chen snorted coldly: "The previous royal family did many evil things, and it would be best for them to miss Yang Hui!"
"What's more, it's ridiculous that such a person actually has admirers among the people."
"Why don't we use this kind of action to explain to the common people and let them know who is the emperor today!"
"When the time comes, I will hand over the refined ashes to His Majesty, and you can do whatever you want with them."
Xiao Chen's voice was so generous that the people who listened were extremely excited.
Chu Yanwu couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha, your kid's thoughts are really vicious, but he is extremely creative. I am very satisfied."
He waved his hand generously: "As a loyal person like you, I will leave this matter to you."
"It's been a long journey, it's been hard work, you can get off first."
After trying hard to get along with Chu Yanwu, the other person almost burst out laughing.
Xiao Chen also retreated obediently.
Chu Yanwu drank a cup of tea happily, and his previous suspicion and dissatisfaction with Xiao Chen disappeared at this moment.
He couldn't help but sigh: "For such a loyal minister, I actually had doubts about him before. It's simply stupid."
"Xiao Chen is smart, decisive and far-sighted, and he is ruthless!"
"Using him properly will definitely be a weapon for me to overcome obstacles."
Such eloquent praise made Chen Jin so depressed that he was speechless.
He quickly said in fear: "Your Majesty, what if he is just pretending..."
"Pretending?"
Chu Yanwu glared at him: "Do you think you really have no ability to judge?"
"In my opinion, you are just making a fuss out of a molehill and imagining Xiao Chen."
"If he was really the former imperial mausoleum, he would not show any anger, let alone think of such a vicious plan to destroy his bones and spread ashes!"
Even beings as insignificant as eunuchs will be thrown into mass graves after death.
Chen Jin was speechless for a moment, but what Chu Yanwu said was indeed reasonable.
If Xiao Chen was really the prince of the former dynasty, he would just dig his own ancestral graves. How could he take the initiative to burn corpses?
It's too vicious and completely unnecessary!
Even a heinous person might not be able to do this to his own family.
