"Sir, you are so righteous!" Hearing Chen Hui's resolute oath, Dongjun Yanfei, knowing that this was no joke, finally put her mind at ease. She bowed respectfully and expressed her sincere gratitude, "On behalf of Gao Yue and all the women in the world, I thank you for your kindness, Sir."
"Just tell me your second request." Not wanting to spend more time on this issue, Chen Hui immediately waved his hand and asked Dongjun Yanfei to continue.
"My second request." Dongjun Yanfei stared into Chen Hui's eyes and said in a deep voice, word by word, "I want to become the master's legal wife, and after the establishment of the new dynasty, I will be crowned as the queen."
"You're really asking for such a high price." Chen Hui was slightly stunned when he heard this, then sneered, "You want to be the queen? Are you also planning to give birth to a prince? Even the position of the future heir to the throne will be yours."
As soon as he said this, Chen Hui suddenly grabbed Yan Fei's neck, slowly tightening his grip while saying in a cold and deep voice: "Dongjun Yan Fei, you are a little too greedy. What makes you think you can be the queen of the new dynasty? Are you worthy of it?"
Seeing Yan Fei's beautiful face turning purple under his hands, Chen Hui slowly loosened his grip. Seeing Yan Fei slumped to the ground and coughing, he said, "At most, you can be a concubine. Otherwise, I don't want the secret technique anymore. But I won't care about you and your mother anymore. Get out of the Mechanical City today and fend for yourselves!"
"Don't expect Rongrong to help you. If I really make up my mind, she alone can't change anything!"
"." Touching the neck where the fingerprints were clearly visible, Dongjun Yanfei, who was slumped on the ground, couldn't help but shake her head and smiled bitterly: "You men are so cruel. You only care about your own great cause and don't care about your wife and daughter at all."
"Don't compare me to Yan Dan, a mediocre person with high aspirations but low skills." Chen Hui turned around and sat down on the chair. He stared at the tearful Yan Fei and said in a deep voice, "Don't forget, it was me who single-handedly broke into the Mirage, defeated Donghuang Taiyi, and rescued you and your daughter from the Yin-Yang family!"
"Otherwise, Gao Yue would still be Ji Ru Qianlong today, and you would still be a prisoner."
"Speaking of which, when I was searching the Mirage, I discovered a 'Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice Formation' that had already been set up. It's probably used to trap you."
"You can stay here now, carefree, relying on your status as the widow of the former great man. It's all thanks to my protection. But not only are you ungrateful, you're even planning to use your status as queen to seize the new dynasty I worked so hard to build!"
"Is this how you repay me, Dongjun Yanfei?"
Chapter 69: Yan Fei as Concubine and Gao Yue as Daughter
"...I just want some security." Dongjun Yanfei lowered her head and murmured, "My life has been too hard. I just want to be able to live a carefree life with Gao Yue in the days to come."
"I really didn't intend to steal the fruits of the New Dynasty. I just wanted some protection."
"You want security, but what about mine?" Chen Hui couldn't help but think of the sky-high bride prices of modern times. He shook his head with a hint of irritation, "I went through untold hardships and risked my life to establish the new dynasty, and you, just by sleeping with me a few times and giving birth to a prince, can effortlessly take it away from me."
"From now on, all the emperors of the Xin Dynasty will be descendants of your Dongjun Yanfei."
"Don't forget who you are. You are the former Crown Princess of Yan State, the wife of the former Mohist master, and the former Lord of the East of the infamous Yin-Yang School."
"You have too many stains on your body. How can you be the mother of the country? How can I safely hand over the harem to you? What if you use the 'Six Souls Curse' to kill the concubines and princes? Just like the six-fingered black warrior who was ambushed by you before."
"You can destroy my martial arts." Dongjun Yanfei said, "I won't be able to use the 'Six Souls Fear Curse' anymore."
"You still don't understand, Yan Fei, what's important is not your martial arts, but your vicious heart."
Chen Hui shook his head and said, "I don't trust you, and I don't dare give you the position of Queen. You are not the kind of person who can tolerate others. You will kill people to consolidate your position and Gao Yue's position."
"Even if you don't know any martial arts, your status as the Lord of the Six Palaces alone is enough to make you kill people without them even noticing."
Yes, just like Empress Lü in history, who also had no martial arts skills, but relying solely on her status as queen, she was able to turn Concubine Qi into a "human pig" and scare her own son Liu Ying half to death.
Chen Hui could accept Lu Zhi as his queen because she was tolerant and kind and innocent at the beginning. The reason why she became so vicious later was entirely because she was forced by Liu Bang's coldness and ruthlessness.
But Yan Fei is different. She has already been stereotyped and her nature is hard to change. She is a truly ruthless character who kills without blinking an eye.
If she becomes the queen, it is estimated that none of Duanmu Rong, Yu Shu, Xiao Yu, Shao Siming, and the Lu sisters will survive. By then, even if Chen Hui cuts Concubine Yan into pieces, the dead cannot be resurrected.
Thinking of this, looking at Dongjun Yanfei who was sitting on the ground and crying, Chen Hui, despite being filled with anger, couldn't help but feel a little pity for this woman's difficult life.
There is no way, appearance is justice.
It is hard for a normal man to feel sympathetic when seeing such a beautiful woman crying so sadly.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Hui reached out and pulled Yan Fei up from the ground, placed her on his lap and embraced her in his arms. He said in a calm and deep voice, "If you really feel that you can only feel at ease if you become my woman, I can agree to it, but I don't want to be forced to take action against you one day. I hope we can be together for the rest of our lives."
"So I can make you a noble concubine, and I can also make Gao Yue the most honorable princess of the new dynasty, but from now on, you can only have Gao Yue as your child. This is my bottom line. You can consider it."
Upon hearing this, Yan Fei closed her eyes, knowing that this was the best condition she could get. After struggling for a moment, she finally sighed and nodded in agreement.
Seeing this, Chen Hui smiled slightly. He raised his hand and gently lifted up Yan Fei's exquisite and beautiful face. He kissed away the tears that slid down her cheeks bit by bit, and gently comforted her, "Don't be afraid, Yan'er. I'm not Yan Dan. I won't sacrifice any woman for the so-called great cause, because I am strong enough, strong enough to protect every one of you."
"So, leave everything to me and don't be afraid anymore."
. . . . . .
. . . . . .
. . . . . .
The next day, Dongjun Yanfei kept her promise and handed over all the secret techniques of the Yin-Yang School to Chen Hui, and officially became one of his concubines.
Afterwards, Chen Hui did not break his promise and publicly accepted Gao Yue as his adopted daughter and gave her the surname "Yi".
Although the leaders of the Mohist school were somewhat speechless about Chen Hui getting involved with the widow of the former leader within a few days.
But there was no rule in this era that widows had to remain chaste. In fact, the nonsense of chastity arches only appeared after Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism became orthodox.
Before this, even in the Northern Song Dynasty, where the literati held absolute power, there was a queen who divorced and remarried. That was Liu E, who was described in history books as having "the talents of Lu and Wu, but not their evils."
So, seeing Yan Fei following Chen Hui like a little bird, and holding Duanmu Rong's hand affectionately and calling her sister, the Mohist leaders, most of whom were single, could only pretend not to see it.
I can only say that no one is perfect. Mr. Yi is really too perfect, so it is normal to have some flaws.
Besides, they didn't take anything by force, everyone did it voluntarily, and no one else has the right to say anything.
Chen Hui said that not only did he not rob or rob, but Yan Fei simply forced herself on him. If she didn't sacrifice a little bit of her male beauty, why would she hand over all her treasures.
Forget it, a concubine plus a princess in exchange for the 500-year heritage of the Yin-Yang family and a beautiful and charming woman. Chen Hui said that he did not suffer any loss.
As for the conflicted look of the Mohist leaders who wanted to say something but hesitated, Chen Hui said that it was all jealousy, the naked jealousy of single people towards the winners in life.
However, because he was impatient to see this group of people always having such stern faces, after obtaining all the secret techniques of the Yin-Yang family, Chen Hui took Yu Shu, Duanmu Rong, Xiao Yu, Shao Siming, Yan Fei and Gao Yue and left the Mechanical City and headed towards another place.
Before this, Chen Hui hadn't forgotten to arrange for Yu Ziqi to go to Pei County and deliver a handwritten letter to Lu Taigong and the others. After all, Chen Hui had originally promised to return a year later, but he was currently too busy to spare the time. He could only ask the Lu sisters to wait a little longer.
Chapter 70: Going to Loulan to Borrow the Demon God's Arms
"So, the place we are going to this time is Loulan?"
Riding on the mechanical sand boat made by the Mo family, looking out the window at the magnificent scenery of yellow sand filling the sky, Dongjun Yanfei stretched out her body in a very charming manner, and chuckled lazily, "According to Lingyi, the place where you, Yilang, first appeared was this Loulan, and there was even a fight at that time."
"Yes, it was a coincidence." Chen Hui smiled faintly as he carefully read the "Soul Wandering Dragon" mental method, trying to deduce some of the mysteries of the "Dragon God Art" from it. "It was a wonderful misunderstanding, but I did gain a lot. It can be said that a bad thing turned into a good thing."
"Then what's the purpose of going to Loulan this time?" Dongjun Yanfei lightly tapped Gao Yue, who was like a little hamster, stealing cakes and stuffing them into her mouth. She smiled and said, "Are you trying to snatch the Demon God of War away?"
"Do you think our current formation is meant for robbing?" Chen Hui gave Yan Fei a speechless look. He glanced at the room full of beautiful women and shook his head. "The technique I'm practicing is what I learned from the Chiyou Sword. It's very difficult to improve further and will take a lot of time. However, the seal of Mount Shu won't wait, so I have to break through it as soon as possible. That's why I have no choice but to go to Loulan for help."
"After all, there is also the second secret treasure left by Chi You, the Demon God Soldier. Like the Chi You Sword, it is forged from fallen stars. I think it will definitely be of some help to my cultivation."
"This is the only solution."
"Thank you, Yi Lang." Xiao Yu came forward and said with emotion, "Thank you for always keeping this matter in mind. The entire Shushan sect will definitely not forget your kindness."
Chen Hui smiled faintly upon hearing this, and pulled Xiao Yu into his arms. He bit her bright red lips, blinked, and said, "You are my woman, you don't need to say thank you to me. It is natural for a man to help his woman solve her problems. You just need to be obedient from now on, do you understand?"
Seeing Xiao Yu nodded with a flushed face, Chen Hui, who was in great interest, immediately wanted to take a few more bites, but he didn't expect Yan Fei and Duanmu Rong to cough softly at the same time. At the same time, they glanced at Gao Yue who was staring at them with wide eyes, signaling Chen Hui not to go too far in front of the child.
Chen Hui smiled awkwardly upon seeing this, and slowly let go of Xiao Yu. He walked over to Gao Yue and touched her cute little head, then he pulled out a homemade Transformer from his pocket, looked at the little girl and smiled, "My dear daughter, today's new toy is Bumblebee. Shall we play together?"
"Great!" Gao Yue, who has owned Optimus Prime and Megatron for a few days, clapped his hands happily when he saw the new toys, and took Bumblebee to play with it.
Looking at Chen Hui playing with his daughter, Dongjun Yanfei suddenly felt a strong sense of satisfaction in her heart, and she was sincerely glad that she had made the right move.
The man in front of her, apart from being amorous, is simply a perfect husband and father. He will take care of the emotions of everyone around him, never force others to do anything in a domineering way, and will not ask women to make sacrifices for his own cause. No matter how busy he is, he will always take time to accompany those around him, and will also make all kinds of toys for Gao Yue very attentively, even though Gao Yue is not his biological daughter at all.
Dongjun Yanfei had never thought that with Chen Hui's current status and cultivation, he would actually let Gao Yue ride on his neck and play without any complaints.
You know, even Gao Yue's biological father, Yan Dan, always respected his status as the crown prince. He was very proper when interacting with his wife and daughter, and never did anything overly intimate.
Seeing her daughter so happy at the moment, being held in Chen Hui's arms and playing the lifting game, Dongjun Yanfei's beautiful face immediately showed a relieved smile, and even a trace of tears flashed in the corner of her eyes.
For the first time in her half-life of wandering, she felt so smooth and comfortable, and was full of confidence in the future.
Things will get better and better, right?
As long as this man is around, no one in the world can hurt the mother and daughter, because this powerful man will definitely protect them.
so good
After coaxing Gao Yue, who was tired from playing, to fall asleep, Chen Hui carefully put her aside, took a blanket and covered her small body, then made a gesture to silence the girls in the room, and picked up the "Soul and Dragon Wandering" to read again.
Next, there was silence and peace. Apart from the wind and sand blowing in the air outside the window, there was no other sound.
About an hour later, everyone finally arrived at their destination, stopped the sand boat, and brought Gao Yue, who had just woken up, to the desert.
Looking up at the bright moon and stars that had just risen in the sky, Chen Hui took out a pearl from his pocket, crushed it and threw it away.
Next, a dazzling light suddenly appeared, illuminating an area within a radius of several miles.
This was a token given to Chen Hui by the high priest when he left Loulan more than a year ago. As long as this item is lit at night, Loulan will know that he has arrived and will send people to greet him.
Sure enough, a moment later, the sand ahead suddenly surged, and several fully armed Loulan warriors suddenly appeared out of nowhere. They first looked at Chen Hui standing in the front, then glanced warily at the people around them who were either women or children. Then they walked forward and greeted him enthusiastically, "Mr. Yi, welcome back to Loulan. The high priest is waiting for you. Please follow us."
As he spoke, the warrior took out a jade pendant from his waist and pressed it. Then he saw the yellow sand suddenly surging and gradually gathering into the shape of a portal. The scene that appeared afterwards was the ancient kingdom of Loulan, and the well-repaired statue of the Queen Mother of the West was clearly visible.
Apart from calling it a miracle, Chen Hui couldn't make any other comment on this portal-like thing.
Chen Hui nodded to the Loulan warriors, then led the women across the yellow sand portal that looked like a teleportation portal and arrived at the Loulan country hidden in the desert.
A moment later, in the magnificent reception hall, Chen Hui and others met the Loulan High Priest who had not been seen for a year, and Xiao Li, who was now dressed in Loulan clothes.
"Mr. Yi, welcome back to Loulan." The high priest greeted Chen Hui, then looked at the women around him and asked, "What are these..."
"A close friend." Chen Hui shrugged nonchalantly, introducing each of the girls one by one. He then patted Gao Yue's head, who looked curious, and said with a smile, "This is my new adopted daughter. Her name is Yi Ru, also known as Gao Yue. You can just call her Yue Yue."
Chapter 71: Meeting the High Priest Again and Confessing the Past
Although Shao Siming had come to Loulan a year ago as an enemy, she was no longer dressed as an elder of the Yin-Yang family and was not wearing a veil. Therefore, the high priest did not recognize her. After nodding gracefully, he invited everyone to take a seat.
"I wonder if Mr. Yi has any important business in coming to Loulan this time?" After everyone was seated, the high priest was the first to ask.
"I do have a favor to ask." Chen Hui turned to look at Xiao Yu, motioning her to stand up. He introduced her, "This girl is the Shushan Sect's Yu Yuan Guardian. Their sect has been guarding the Yu Yuan Seal since ancient times, suppressing a terrifying existence that is almost as terrifying as the Demon God of War."
"For thousands of years, the Yuyuan Seal had remained peaceful. However, about half a year ago, Emperor Ying Zheng of Qin sent troops to attack the Shushan Sect and seized the key to suppressing the seal: an ancient sacred Fusang tree. He loaded it onto his Mirage Treasure Ship, intending to use it to sail out to sea in search of the elixir of immortality."
As he spoke, Chen Hui took out his Iron Blood computer and showed the recorded images of the Mirage Treasure Ship and the Fusang Sacred Tree to the High Priest and Xiao Li.
Seeing the gigantic sacred tree and the mirage treasure ship, which seemed like a miracle, even the high priest who had guarded the Soldier Demon God for generations could not help but sigh repeatedly. Then he shook his head with deep sorrow and said, "Emperor Ying Zheng of Qin is truly a wicked man. To satisfy his own selfish desires, he not only sent troops to Loulan to seize the Soldier Demon God, but he even went to Mount Shu to steal such a sacred object. Such greed will sooner or later bring punishment from Heaven."
Having said this, the high priest nodded sympathetically to the sorrowful Xiao Yu, motioned her to sit down, and then looked at Chen Hui and asked, "Is there anything we in Loulan can do to help the Shushan Sect?"
"The sacred tree has been taken away, and Shushan has been struck by catastrophe. The seal of Yu Yuan has lost its suppressor and may break at any time. If that happens, the entire Bashu area for thousands of miles may suffer a devastating disaster."
Glancing at Xiao Yu, who bit her lip unconsciously upon hearing this, Chen Hui sighed softly, "But this sacred tree has already been loaded onto the Mirage Treasure Ship by Ying Zheng, and the ship has already sailed out to sea. There's simply no time to return the sacred tree to Mount Shu in such a short period of time. Therefore, we must find another treasure to suppress and seal it, otherwise chaos will break out across the world."
"Mr. Yi, are you talking about Loulan's 'Dragon Soul'?" The high priest said in embarrassment, "Mr. Yi, it's not that I refuse to agree, but the 'Dragon Soul' is related to the life and death of Loulan. I really can't lend it out."
"I understand, so I'm not here to borrow the 'Dragon Soul' this time." Chen Hui shook his head and said, "In fact, a treasure that can replace the sacred tree has been found. It is the 'Heavenly Questions' sword, the guardian weapon of the Qin Dynasty. It has the ability to continue to suppress the Yu Yuan seal."
"However, this sword has always been carried by Emperor Qin Ying Zheng himself, so it is difficult to obtain it easily."
"I see..." The high priest's expression softened slightly after hearing this, and he nodded. "But what does obtaining the 'Heavenly Questions' sword have to do with Loulan?"
Chen Hui sighed softly upon hearing this, and said with an awkward smile, "Speaking of this, I need to apologize to you, the High Priest, because I was actually the one who took the Chiyou Sword a year ago."
As he spoke, Chen Hui took out the Chiyou Sword from the space and placed it on the table to show it.
Glancing at the now quiet Chiyou Sword, completely devoid of its former fervent aura, the High Priest and Xiao Li exchanged glances. They smiled and shook their heads, saying, "We had our doubts about this at the time, actually. Xiao Li had a special connection with the Chiyou Sword. She said she didn't seem to sense the Chiyou Sword on the Qin army's masters, so it's likely still in the country."
"The only foreigners still in Loulan at that time were Mr. Yi, Mr. Gai Nie, and their group."
"After all, the people of Loulan would not keep this ominous sword privately."
"Haha, I've been exposed for a long time. I'm so embarrassed." Chen Hui shook his head and said, "As a swordsman, I couldn't help myself when I saw such a magical weapon, so I subconsciously took it."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Li stood up, reached out to take the Chiyou Sword, and examined it. He nodded with a look of satisfaction and said, "The fierce aura of this sword has become much milder, and Mr. Yi doesn't seem to be affected by it. It seems that you have successfully subdued this ominous sword and will not use it to do evil."
As he spoke, Xiao Li placed the Chiyou Sword back in front of Chen Hui and said with a smile, "The reason why the Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens sealed this sword was because she was worried that someone would be deceived by the sword's evil aura and become a demon like Chiyou. Since Mr. Yi is not affected by the sword, there is no need for Loulan to seal it anymore. I will give it to Mr. Yi. I hope you can restore it to its former glory."
"After all, the original Chiyou Sword was also a sword of justice that saved the common people."
"Xiao Li, what are you doing now?" Chen Hui asked curiously, seeing Xiao Li wearing the same outfit as the high priest.
"Xiao Li is the incarnation of the Goddess's Tears, and she shoulders the heavy responsibility of guarding the Soldier Demon God." The high priest explained with a smile, "So this child is now my heir, and she will be the next high priestess of Loulan."
"I see." Chen Hui nodded after hearing this, and put the Chiyou Sword back into the space. He continued to explain: "Over the past year or so, I have comprehended a set of exercises from the Chiyou Sword, which can significantly improve my own strength."
"Originally, there's no need to rush this kind of thing; all I need to do is practice step by step. However, the Shushan Sect's Yu Yuan seal is about to be broken, and time is running out. Therefore, I must improve my strength as quickly as possible and go to the Qin Emperor's Palace to retrieve the 'Heavenly Questions' sword."
"So, I thought of Loulan's Soldier Demon God, a treasure that originated from the same source as Chiyou's Divine Sword. If I could enter the Soldier Demon God's interior, perhaps I could greatly accelerate my cultivation process and reach a higher level before Yu Yuan's seal is broken. This would greatly increase the possibility of obtaining the 'Heavenly Questions' sword."
"So as a last resort, I have no choice but to come to you, the High Priest, for help."
"I see." The high priest smiled and nodded. "This is a matter of life and death for all. As long as Mr. Yi doesn't intend to take the Soldier Demon God away, but rather wants to go in and practice, then there will naturally be no problem."
