From these short words, Chen Qingtian understood that these two people must have had a touching love.
However, their love did not surpass reality and time after all.
No wonder General Yue Pengfei looked at her wrongly.
And when Ji Hongrou told this past event, her eyes also had desolation and sadness.
Chen Qingtian is not good at this aspect and has little experience. He could only comfort him in a low voice: "Senior, I didn't expect that there would be such twists and turns between you two!"
"Based on my personal opinion on this matter, my sworn brother Yue Pengfei obviously has no end of affection for you. You also have feelings for him. You can choose to be together!"
"Hehehe..." Hearing this, Ji Hongrou smiled and then shook her head: "Chen Qingtian, you are indeed not a person who has lived for hundreds or thousands of years, you are really just a young boy who is less than twenty years old!"
"Ah, haha!" Chen Qingtian also laughed, "That's not true, my thoughts are relatively simple!"
"But Yue Pengfei is my eldest brother now, and I hope his life can be more fulfilling!"
"Do you really think so?" Ji Hongrou seemed to want to ask something.
Chen Qingtian nodded vigorously.
Ji Hongrou continued: "Pengfei, he can't let go of the Eastern Legion. He has his own righteousness in his heart."
"But if...if you can inherit his position, then he should be able to let go of a lot of things..."
"The two of us once said that we would let go of what we had, find a quiet and peaceful place, and live a normal life, but this did not come true after all."
Hearing this, Chen Qingtian smiled bitterly. It seemed that Ji Hongrou thought that as long as she took the position of general and guarded the eastern border, Yue Pengfei would be liberated.
In this way, they might be together. The thought of this is actually a bit naive.
Even if Yue Pengfei is not the general, he will not let go of the Eastern Army and will still fight to the death with the demon clan.
Chen Qingtian also said at this time: "Senior, I didn't expect you to think so!"
"Tell me the truth. Actually, I don't want to be bound to this position, but if you and my eldest brother are really lovers, I will definitely find a way to make it happen for you."
Hearing what Chen Qingtian said, Ji Hongrou suddenly smiled.
She looked carefully at the young man in front of her. In fact, he was still a little green, but he spoke in such a loud tone that it didn't sound like he was joking at all.
She couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "Chen Qingtian, even if Pengfei and I have this kind of strength, there are still many things we are not free to do. I believe you want to help us, but I don't know. How long to wait!"
Chen Qingtian smiled and said, "Senior, since Brother Yue and I have become brothers, you will not be together for too long. Believe me! Hahaha..."
Chen Qingtian was making bold words at this moment, as if the rules and regulations of this world would soon be unable to restrain him.
"Haha..." Ji Hongrou also smiled and praised: "Chen Qingtian, no wonder Pengfei is willing to become a brother with you. He doesn't just value your status as a saint."
"He must also believe in your character and conduct!"
Then she seemed to be recalling something and said with emotion: "Hundreds of years ago, he also became a brother with a person. That person was also very heroic at the time. It's a pity that so many years have passed and he has stayed in that position. After so long, he must have changed!"
"Oh!" Chen Qingtian heard this and asked tentatively: "Brother Yue told me that besides me, he also has a sworn brother. Could this man be the current emperor of the Daxia Empire..."
Ji Hongrou smiled and replied: "Chen Qingtian, you guessed it right. Hundreds of years ago, Pengfei became brothers with the current emperor Ji Duanyu."
"I think back then, they were friends of life and death and had experienced many lives and deaths, but not many people knew about this incident. I was considered a witness at the time!"
"No wonder...no wonder..." Chen Qingtian didn't expect that Yue Pengfei also had many stories with the Emperor of the Great Xia Empire. No wonder he wanted to become a brother with him.
He also said that when he comes to the Imperial City, as long as that person doesn't embarrass him, other people will never dare to deal with him openly.
Unexpectedly, he is indirectly a brother to the current emperor!
Chen Qingtian smiled indifferently and did not feel that he was very honored.
Ji Hongrou finally said: "Chen Qingtian, although the Imperial City is the headquarters of my Ji family, the various forces in it are complicated and complicated, and there are many powerful people who are more powerful than me. With your identity and your temper, you yourself Be careful!"
Chen Qingtian was secretly frightened. The only person who was more powerful than Ji Hongrou was the Heaven and Earth realm.
But Chen Qingtian was not afraid. He thanked: "Senior, thank you for reminding me!"
"Well" Ji Hongrou was silent for a moment, then suddenly took out a token and handed it to Chen Qingtian and said: "If you really encounter any trouble, you can also come to me. For the sake of Pengfei and myself, at the critical moment I can stand up for you.”
Huh! Chen Qingtian did not refuse, took the token, and thanked him again: "Senior... thank you very much!"
"Well! Pay more attention to yourself!"
"I go first."
Whoosh! After Ji Hongrou finished speaking, she flashed forward and went to the front.
Then there were a few more flickers, then they faded away completely.
Chen Qingtian took the token in his hand and checked it carefully. He found that there was nothing wrong with it, so he put it into the Sumeru Ring.
Soon, he also caught up with the large army.
Facing the curious looks of Yuan Hongli and Xing Wuming, Chen Qingtian could only shake his head and smile bitterly: "Senior Ji Hongrou is not here to win over me, but she told me about her past with the general!"
Xing Wuming's interest suddenly aroused. He didn't seem to know these things.
But Yuan Hongli sighed and shook his head, "I know this. The great general was the proud son of our Eastern Army."
"And this Ji Hongrou is also the noble daughter of the Ji royal family."
"The two were attracted to each other. They were a match made in heaven. They were in love with each other. Unfortunately... later, due to some reasons, they completely parted ways. Alas... I also feel sorry for the general."
"In our Eastern Legion, everyone who knew about it at the time avoided talking about it, and no one talked about it. There are very few people who know about it now!"
"I didn't expect Master to have such a story!" Xing Wuming sighed: "I really don't know. In my heart, Master will not consider these things at all for the sake of the Eastern Legion and the protection of the eastern border!"
Xing Wuming was surprised and kept sighing.
As Yue Pengfei's disciple, he actually didn't know about his master's past in this mortal world.
"Let's go!" Chen Qingtian said no more.
Not long after, they followed these people and arrived at the Imperial City.
The city wall in front of him was boundless. Even with Chen Qingtian's mental strength, he could not sense even one of the edges of the imperial city.
It’s so big, the Imperial City, it’s better to say it’s a country within a country.
He also felt that everyone in the Imperial City was full of energy and had a lot of powerful momentum, some of which made him feel palpitations and fear.
After entering here, Chen Qingtian and more than a dozen people from the Eastern Legion were all arranged in a luxurious small palace.
The person responsible for receiving them said that they should wait here for the emperor's summons.
More than a dozen of them waited in the palace with peace of mind and never went out.
It was not until four days later that a white and fair old man came here. He said in a sharp voice: "The Eastern Legion and others, I am here to convey the emperor's holy will!"
"Get ready and follow me to the Emperor's Palace to see Emperor Xiangsheng!"
When Chen Qingtian and a dozen other people heard these words, they knew that business was coming.
So everyone put on their armor and tidied up their clothes and appearance.
Finally, they followed the fair old man and came to a bright road.
I saw here a luxurious car pulled by four huge war birds.
They went up one after another. This war bird was extremely fast and flew at low altitude.
After traveling through almost half of the Imperial City, it took several hours and at extremely fast speeds, we finally arrived at the outskirts of the Great Imperial Palace.
"Come with me! Don't wander around!" The fair old man said in a rich voice.
Chen Qingtian nodded slightly. He felt that the atmosphere here was very depressing.
Countless strong men stood in this magnificent palace, like a sentry every three steps and a guard post every ten steps.
It was half an hour before he stopped again.
Everyone raised their heads and finally approached the high-altitude hall of the Great Emperor's Palace.
Ahead, there are nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine stairs, and all the powerful men who came to be awarded this time are waiting here.
Finally, they were all led up step by step at extremely fast speeds.
Until the end, everyone was waiting outside the hall.
Suddenly, there was a continuous sound inside.
"The emperor has an order to summon those who have made great contributions to the battle against the monsters!"
"The emperor has an order to summon those who have made great contributions to the battle against the monsters!"
"The emperor has a destiny..."
The sound is transmitted here layer by layer.
Chen Qingtian and others, led by the guide, walked step by step into the main hall.
Entering the Chaohui Hall, Chen Qingtian sensed that there were no less than 30,000 people here.
Among these people, many have average strength and have not even reached the magic realm.
But at the same time, there are also many truly strong people.
But no matter what, this is the center of the Daxia Empire, the center of power in the entire Daxia Empire.
Even if the person with the lowest status here was placed in a small or medium-sized city, he would still be an extraordinary person.
Chen Qingtian was walking in a relatively forward position, and he kept getting closer to the front.
A very spacious space has been reserved on both sides of the court, enough for them to move forward as they please.
Saw it!
Chen Qingtian saw the high imperial throne.
There was a man sitting on it. Although he was dressed very gorgeously, he didn't look very imposing.
But the emperor's majesty was still revealed.
boom!
Everyone began to kneel down and worship.
Generals like Chen Qingtian, all wearing armor, just knelt on one knee.
Today, Chen Qingtian was specially wearing shining silver-gold armor.
Set off by the armor, his young face is more majestic and handsome, and he looks very dashing.
Anyone who sees him can't help but praise him, what a handsome young man!
