Chapter 241 Haitang Duoduo’s Inner Demon, the morning court begins!
"I know what you mean, but this time I have to break through. If I don't break through and eliminate my inner demons, I'm afraid I won't be able to make any progress in the future!"

After a few words of conversation, Haitang Duoduo had regained the sense of familiarity they had in the past. She walked up to Chen Luo without any hesitation and took the rose from his hand.

She understood what Chen Luo meant, but she was not in a hurry to prove anything, nor was she angry. Instead, she wanted to deal with the demons in her heart!

Others would only think that her inner demon was caused by her lack of confidence in the Tianyi Dao mental method after Ku He was defeated by Emperor Qing!
But only she herself knew that Ku He was defeated by Emperor Qing with just one blow, which did make her doubt the strength of Tianyi Dao's mental method, but it was far from the point where it could breed a demon in her heart!

Her real inner demon is her unclear feelings towards Chen Luo!
Only she herself knows how serious this inner demon is!

To put it bluntly, if she doesn't find a way to eliminate her inner demons, not only will she not be able to break through her cultivation level in the future, she may even lose all of her cultivation level and become a useless person!
Chen Luo narrowed his eyes and looked up and down at the Begonia Duoduo who was playing with the petals. It took him a while to look away, feeling a little helpless!

He may have underestimated Haitang Duoduo's feelings!

"It's getting late. You must be very tired after being in seclusion for so many days. You need to accompany the emperor to the morning court tomorrow and visit the queen mother. There are a lot of things waiting for you to do!"

"Go and rest early. Don't think about breaking through in the next few days. Focus on consolidating your cultivation and making up for the damage to your foundation. I will find a way to repair your damaged martial arts foundation!"

It was because of him that Haitang Duoduo forced herself to break through the realm, causing damage to her martial arts foundation. Even though this was not his instigation, he also had some responsibility.

In addition, he and Haitang Duoduo have a good relationship. Even if Haitang Duoduo had some "grudges" against him in the past, that "grudge" has been resolved by him!

Damage to the foundation is a big deal, he can't just watch Haitang Duoduo ruin her future in martial arts!
As for the rest, it will happen when it’s time!
Chen Luo turned and walked into the hall. Haitang Duoduo did not stop him. She just watched his back disappear quietly.

After a long while, she turned and left with an expressionless face.

"I'm sorry, Master. It's not that I don't want to, but there are some things that you can't fight for just because you want to!"

·······
On the day, at the end of the Yin hour.

The Qinzheng Hall was already filled with ministers, each of them had a smile on their face, real or fake, and the sound of compliments to each other was heard one after another.

Soon, Uesugi Tora, dressed in armor, walked into the hall. The strong murderous aura made the ministers silent, and the noisy hall became silent in an instant.

After Uesugi Tora walked to the front of the row of military officers on the left and stood still, the ministers cautiously stepped forward to salute and greet him.

"General Shangshanhu has made an unprecedented contribution to our Northern Qi. Your Majesty and the Queen will surely give you a generous reward this time. I congratulate you in advance!"

"Master Chen is right. The general has avenged the humiliation of Northern Qi and has made outstanding contributions. This time, His Majesty and the Queen will probably confer the title of marquis on the general, or even a title of king!"

"Whether it's a prince or a marquis, it's all due to General Uesugi Tora's contribution!"

"Your Majesty and the Queen are both wise and brave, and they only appoint people based on their merits. The general has made such outstanding contributions, so it is possible for him to be promoted to the rank of Marquis or even the rank of Prince!"

Uesugi Tora glanced coldly at the ministers who had gathered around him, scaring them so much that they trembled, thinking that they had flattered the horse but hit its hoof!
Seeing Uesugi Tora's cold attitude, the ministers who wanted to step forward to greet and flatter him instantly gave up the idea!

Before Jinyiwei was reused, Shangshan Hu was the most notorious person in Northern Qi. Even the common people spread rumors that Shangshan Hu was a cannibal, a murderer, and a demon! After Shangshan Hu entered the palace, the ministers did not dare to talk loudly, and the Qinzheng Palace was unusually quiet.

"Mr. Zhuang, why are you here today?"

"Master Zhuang, please walk slowly. I will help you!"

"Student Li Miao, nice to meet Mr. Zhuang!"

There was another commotion. The ministers who heard the noise immediately turned around and saw Zhuang Mohan walking in with a kind smile.

Almost immediately, dozens of ministers came forward to support him and greeted Zhuang Mohan respectfully.

As civil officials, when they were still scholars, all they thought about were the books translated by Zhuang Mohan. It is no exaggeration to say that Zhuang Mohan is their teacher!
Until now, even with the existence of Chen Luo, the new teacher of the world's literati, it still has not affected Zhuang Mohan's status in the hearts of the world's literati!

"Mr. Zhuang, long time no see. I see you look pretty strong today!"

Uesugi Tiger rarely smiled and took the initiative to greet Zhuang Mohan.

As a general, he hated those fake civil officials, but he didn't hate Zhuang Mohan. On the contrary, he liked him very much!

Because Zhuang Mohan is not false, and he does not suppress military officials like other civil officials, wanting to prevent these military generals from ever turning over!
In his opinion, Zhuang Mohan is a true sage, impeccable in both knowledge and character!
"General Uesugi Tiger, how are you?"

"I don't know why, but I've been feeling refreshed these days, and my body feels much better than before. I guess the gods in the temple know my wish and want me to live longer so that I can see the revival of Northern Qi!"

Zhuang Mohan stroked his gray beard and looked at Uesugi Tiger with a amiable smile.

He is Sean's elder brother, and Uesugi Tora is Sean's adopted son. In a sense, Uesugi Tora is his nephew!

Although this identity has never been revealed, he and Uesugi Tora both know it!

Moreover, he was very satisfied with Uesugi Tora, who was a brave general who could expand the territory for Northern Qi!

Seeing Zhuang Mohan and Uesugi Hu talking, the ministers did not dare to interrupt and could only return to their original seats in disappointment, waiting for Chen Luo and Zhan Doudou to arrive.

Now that the Queen's coronation ceremony is over, Uesugi Tora and Zhuang Mohan have also attended the morning court. Apparently, something happened today!
Many ministers who had something to hide clenched their fists nervously, praying silently in their hearts that they would not be punished this time!
Even though we knew that one day we would be punished, no one wants to die early if they can live one more day!
"Your Majesty and the Queen have arrived!!"

The eunuch's duck-like voice sounded, and the ministers who had already stood in their respective positions immediately knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, may you be well! Your Majesty, may you be well!!"

Zhuang Mohan and Shangshan Hu also bent down and bowed. Although they did not kneel down to salute, their respect was no less than those ministers who were kneeling on the ground. In fact, they were more respectful than them!
It is unknown whether the ministers’ respect is sincere, but their respect is genuine!

Chen Luo and Zhan Doudou walked side by side, walking straight through the aisle between the ministers to the dragon throne. After the two of them sat down, Zhan Doudou waved his sleeves and said casually, "Stand up!"
