After Princess Yangxi left, Qi Yuan walked into the hall.
He looked at Gu Chen and pointed in the direction where Princess Yangxi was leaving, with a look of suspicion on his face: "Mr. Gu, Your Royal Highness, she..."
Gu Chen shook his head: "It has nothing to do with you!"
After saying that, he stood up and walked out of the palace.
When Qi Yuan saw this, he was shocked: "Master Gu, you don't really want to see the high priest, do you?"
Gu Chen nodded: "That's right!"
"Sir, please don't!"
As soon as Gu Chen stepped out of the hall, Qi Yuan quickly rushed to Gu Chen and raised his hand to stop Gu Chen.
Gu Chen frowned slightly, and a ray of green light slowly condensed in his hand: "If you don't want to die, don't stop me!"
"this……"
Seeing this green poisonous power, Qi Yuan's heart trembled violently.
It was as if he had once again seen the horrific scene of his companion dying tragically while rushing to the Cloud Tower.
At that time, he died under this terrifying green poisonous power.
"Master Gu, you are a righteous person, you shouldn't do this!"
Qi Yuan forced down the fear in his heart and pointed at the surrounding buildings: "Where is this? The Imperial Palace!"
Gu Chen said: "What about the palace?"
"I know that the young master is not afraid. Even Mu Guoshi values the young master so much. Naturally, the young master is not afraid of causing trouble!"
Qi Yuan took a deep breath, paused for a moment, and seemed to be sorting out his thoughts.
After a moment, he continued: "In the palace, the forces are complicated and various factions are fighting each other. Young Master Gu must not be aware of it. For example, the high priest you want to meet is from the Third Prince's faction!"
"The Imperial Preceptor is from the Prince's faction!"
"These two major factions have been competing for the crown prince's position, but now that the crown prince's position has been settled, the crown prince wants to win over the young master again!"
Qi Yuan took a deep breath: "Once the prince meets the high priest again, the prince will define you as a member of the third prince's faction. At that time, there will be big trouble!"
Gu Chen asked: "Why are you in big trouble?"
"Now that the dust has settled on the crown prince's position, and the third prince has compromised, his highness will naturally no longer regard the third prince as a threat, and naturally he will not do anything to the third prince."
"But don't forget, Young Master, you still have a huge achievement, which is that you allowed Tian Ming to withdraw his troops unconditionally. This achievement is enough to influence the direction of the empire and threaten the status of the prince!"
"If this credit falls on the prince, it is logical. But if it falls on the third prince at this time, then the prince will never allow it!"
"This will only lead to two results. In order to stabilize his position, His Highness the Crown Prince, he will either kill you, Young Master, or get rid of the Third Prince!"
Qi Yuan took a deep breath and said: "Young Master, you may not be afraid. With Mu Guo still alive, the Crown Prince would not dare to touch you, Young Master. However, I am afraid that Young Master does not want to see this if he sends someone to get rid of the third prince on unfounded charges." Something happened!"
"Um?"
Qi Yuan's words made Gu Chen frown.
It seems to make some sense.
Indeed, with the female master in red here, no one can kill him.
But he couldn't save the third prince.
If the third prince dies, then everything he has done for the imperial seal will be in vain.
Seeing Gu Chen's silence, Qi Yuan finally breathed a long sigh of relief and finally persuaded Gu Chen.
In order to prevent Gu Chen's thoughts from rekindling, he pointed at the surrounding buildings.
"This is the Imperial Palace of the Daxia Empire, the center of power of the Daxia Empire, and the stable place where the country of the Daxia Empire rests!"
"Once you do something, Young Master, and plunge this palace into chaos, I don't need to tell you what kind of consequences it will cause. With Young Master's intelligence, you can definitely think of it, right?"
Qi Yuan said: "That's why I advise you not to be impulsive. Even if you have something you must do, you must have an expedient plan. Don't be too persistent!"
Qi Yuan's throat became dry after speaking continuously, and he couldn't help but cough twice.
Gu Chen said nothing.
He was also thinking about what Qi Yuan said just now.
It is undeniable that what this guy said does make sense.
He never thought about disrupting the Imperial Palace.
After all, he is from the Daxia Empire and grew up in the Daxia Empire.
The feelings of family and country are still there!
It is impossible to be as unscrupulous as in the Tianming Empire, killing as much as you want!
If the Imperial Palace of Daxia is messed up, there will be chaos in Daxia.
By then, only the people of Daxia will be hurt.
Suddenly, Gu Chen seemed to understand something. He couldn't help frowning and looking at Qi Yuan, humming: "After doing this for so long, you guys also want me to follow the second prince and serve him, right?"
"It's the prince...the prince."
Facing Gu Chen's gaze, Qi Yuan couldn't help wiping his cold sweat.
He is the prince's man, so it is natural for him to do things for the prince.
It's just that I don't dare to say it directly.
There was nothing I could do, Gu Chen's eyes were too scary.
Especially the young man's eyes seemed to contain mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
Just looking at each other, you can fall into it. Even if his cultivation level is much higher than Gu Chen's, he can't stand it at all.
"I have a message for you to convey to the second prince on my behalf: I want the Imperial Seal. As long as he is willing to hand it over to me, I will no longer care about any affairs of the court from now on!"
"Wha...what?"
Qi Yuan was instantly shocked by Gu Chen's words.
Imperial Jade Seal!
That is a treasure that the empire has inherited for tens of thousands of years!
Something that represents the entire Daxia Empire, the royal family of the Daxia Empire, and the emperors of the Daxia Empire!
How could you give something like this to anyone?
This request made by Gu Chen is almost impossible!
He looked at Gu Chen with a look of surprise and uncertainty: "Gu... Master Gu, why do you want the imperial seal?!"
"This has nothing to do with you, just do it!"
After Gu Chen finished speaking, he turned around and walked back to the main hall.
Whatever he did, whether he agreed to help the third prince or went to the Tianming Empire for the third prince, the ultimate goal was for the imperial seal.
If the second prince could give him the imperial seal directly, he wouldn't mind ignoring anything in the court.
He doesn't care who is the emperor of the empire.
As for the hatred for the second prince, if it is exchanged for the imperial seal, it is not impossible to give up temporarily.
If the second prince dares to have other thoughts about him again, he won't mind liquidating them all!
"this……"
Qi Yuan frowned as he watched Gu Chen walk back to the main hall.
He didn't know whether he should go to the prince or not, and whether he should convey Gu Chen's words to the prince!
Because this is simply a matter of scolding!
How could the imperial seal, the foundation of the emperor, be given to others?
"If you get scolded, get scolded!"
After a while, Qi Yuan gritted his teeth, turned around and headed towards Tai Chi Hall.
