The Lone Walker
Chapter 21 Return
"Master Gu, you are kind-hearted and pure-hearted. I will bestow upon you the title of the best in the world, as well as ten thousand taels of gold and a fiefdom of a hundred miles."
"Haha, thank you, Your Majesty." Gu Santong was also a little embarrassed.
"Master Chen, you helped me in times of crisis. I will remember this. Since Master Chen is unwilling to accept the position of Imperial Master, I will soon issue an order that every household in the Ming Dynasty must worship Master Chen. As long as the Ming Dynasty survives, Master Chen will be worshipped forever."
Chen Fan wanted to refuse, but at this moment, as the emperor gave the order, another transparent light screen appeared in the sea of consciousness...
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Chen Fan bowed.
Sure enough, no ruler of a country is easy to deal with. A simple sentence tied Chen Fan to the country. Chen Fan was deeply moved for a moment.
……
"Eunuch Cao, you have saved me from danger many times. Even when you were in danger, you never forgot your duty as a subject. You have worked hard and made great contributions. I am safe and sound this time, all thanks to Eunuch Cao. I will grant you the title of 'Nine Thousand Years Old'. You don't need to kneel when you see the emperor, and you can enter and leave the inner courtyard of the imperial palace at any time. You are second only to the emperor and above everyone else. I wonder what you think." The little emperor paused and continued.
This is also the reason why Chen Fan's mental power has been guiding the emperor since the beginning of the war, making him say this subconsciously. As the saying goes, a king's words are not joking. Once you open your mouth, it will be extremely difficult to take it back. After all, a person who changes his orders every day has no prestige at all.
"Your Majesty, I thank you very much. Long live the emperor." Cao Zhengchun immediately knelt down to show his loyalty.
But then Cao Zhengchun shook his head and said calmly: "Your Majesty, if I had received this honor with my original character, I would be ecstatic, but after this war, I am already exhausted, and I am old. I am afraid I can no longer serve you. Please take back your order and allow me to retire and return home."
After saying that, he coughed twice, and spots of blood instantly dyed his palms red.
Everyone was surprised. After all, Cao Zhengchun had been fighting with Zhu Wushi for many years and had great power. Now that Zhu Wushi was defeated and executed, it was a good opportunity for Cao Zhengchun to dominate the government. Why did he do this? Chen Fan was also a little surprised. After all, the original conditions...
At this moment, the emperor had already regretted the moment he opened his mouth, but the arrow had been shot and there was no turning back. Under the influence of Chen Fan's mental power, he was completely out of control. Now that Cao Zhengchun had refused himself, it just happened to fulfill his wish.
However, Cao Zhengchun had made such great contributions that if he did not reward him, it would be disheartening to others. Therefore, the emperor thought for a moment and said, "In this case, your title of Nine Thousand Years Old will remain unchanged. I will allow you to retire and return home. Since you are ill, I will select two doctors from the palace to be your attendants and grant you a thousand acres of fertile land and ten thousand taels of gold."
"Your humble servant thanks the Lord for his grace. Long live the Emperor." Cao Zhengchun knelt on the ground again.
……
Next, Chen Fan came to Gu Santong's fiefdom and took out the Suxin ice coffin. He had already got two Tianxiang cardamoms. After taking them one after another, he slowly thawed and woke up.
Three days later, the Humin Mountain Villa was established. There were laughter and joy in the villa, gongs and drums were beating, and all officials came to celebrate...
Shangguan Haitang, Return to the Sea
Duan Tianya, Liu Sheng Piao Catkins
Cheng Shifei, Princess Yunluo
Ancient three links, Su Xin
It turned out that these four couples, old and new, had agreed to get married today. At first, it was just Gui Hai Yidao and Shangguan Haitang, and later Princess Yunluo also wanted to be with Cheng Shifei. Unable to resist Liu Sheng Piaoxu's eager eyes, Duan Tianya had to swallow his pride and kiss Cheng Shifei again. Looking at Su Xin's eager expression, Gu Santong, who felt deeply indebted, could only ask his daughter-in-law for help... and shamelessly got married with several young people...
Su Xin had just woken up from a long sleep and before she had time to enjoy the joy of family life, she was pulled over by the blushing Gu Santong to get married. She was given a phoenix crown and a bridal robe, three letters and six betrothal gifts, and a sedan chair carried by eight people.
When the emperor heard about the lively occasion, he volunteered to be the witness. For a while, people came and went in the Humin Villa, and it was very lively.
……
The song ends, and the crowd disperses...
Seeing everyone and Gu Santong's family having fun, Chen Fan couldn't help but feel a lump in his throat, and then he remembered that he hadn't been home for many days since he went to college. Thinking of his parents at home, he wanted to go home immediately.
Seeing that everyone was drunk, staggering and snoring loudly, Chen Fan got up and left, leaving the capital and entering a forest. After walking for a while, Chen Fan stopped with a smile.
"Eunuch Cao, you are so elegant. I don't know why you have been following me for so long."
Chen Fan saw a figure slowly walking out from behind a big tree. Chen Fan looked closely and realized who else could it be but Cao Zhengchun.
"Hehe, I knew I couldn't hide it from you, Brother Chen. Brother Chen showed great power that day and I admire him deeply. I just want to know whether those 10,000 elite cavalrymen taken away by Brother Chen that day are still alive now," Cao Zhengchun said a little embarrassedly.
"Of course he is alive. Why? Eunuch Cao wants it? Don't you want to learn from the Iron-hearted Lord and sit on the throne of the Supreme Being?"
Chen Fan sneered and said in a cold voice.
Upon hearing this, Cao Zhengchun suddenly knelt down and said, "Master Chen, I have offended you many times before. I know you are not an ordinary person. I beg you to take me in. I will serve you wholeheartedly. I don't want any ambitions, I just want to follow you. I hope you will grant my wish..."
