Chapter 110 - Allegiance

"What are you doing?" Zhao Chen said in surprise.

"Your Majesty, this humble subject's mother has completely recovered!" Kang An said.

"So that's how it is! That would be great! " Zhao Chen laughed.

He was suddenly enlightened! Previously, he was still curious why Kang An would suddenly kneel in front of him, but now, he finally understood!

Speaking of which, his relationship with Kang An was very normal. Normally, he would only talk to Kang An occasionally! As for Kang An's mother's matter, it was only a hidden chess that he had casually set up. As a result, he did not take this matter to heart, but he was extremely shocked when Kang An kneeled down!

"This humble subject thanks Your Majesty for his great kindness! This humble subject will follow His Majesty's lead from now on! Whatever His Majesty wants this humble subject to do, this humble subject will do it! No matter who His Majesty wants this humble subject to kill, this humble subject will do the same! " Kang An said.

"I won't let you kill anyone. Stand up!" Zhao Chen laughed.

"Your Majesty, I must swear my allegiance to you!" Kang An did not stand up, but said.

"Oh? Have you ever been unfaithful to me? " Zhao Chen said.

"No... This humble subject has never been so loyal before! " Kang An felt beads of perspiration trickling down his forehead, he didn't know how to express his current feelings!

"Stand up first!" Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, do you believe this humble subject's words? This humble subject truly needs to swear my loyalty to you! " Kang An said somewhat anxiously.

"I do! You will rise! Otherwise, if others were to see the scene here, what would they say? " Zhao Chen said.

"Yes, yes, this humble subject will stand up immediately!" Kang An said.

"If there's nothing else, please leave!" Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, Lin Bao, this eunuch, has always plotted against you and has always deceived you to do things that you shouldn't have done! Your Majesty, you are an Emperor, you should be in charge of the affairs of the country and order the world to stay in the Imperial Palace, not working as a carpenter in the Dry Clear Palace. Kang An recalled his mother's words and decided to first "persuade" Zhao Chen, and so he replied.

"I know all of these things, Lord Li also told me before! But I understand that Xiao Linzi was doing this for my own good. He saw that I was tired, so he let me rest and let me do my own things. Zhao Chen said.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Kang An stood there in a daze, he never thought that Zhao Chen would actually evaluate Lin Bao in such a way!

"He is the steward of the Dry Clear Palace and you are the steward of the Managed. Are there any conflicts between the two of you?" Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, there is no personal grudge between him and me! This humble subject is thinking of His Majesty! Your Majesty, please reconsider! " Kang An said.

"I will think about your words! I understand your loyalty as well! " Zhao Chen laughed.

"Your Majesty, other than the eunuch Lin Bao, Master Fold … No matter how ambitious he is, he is still trying to harm His Majesty! " Kang An said after hesitating for a while.

Originally, he had not planned to say these words; he had only wanted to talk about Lin Bao! But now, he felt that Zhao Chen did not believe in his "loyalty" at all. It was as if Zhao Chen was just fawning on him, which was why he had brought up Zhe Keqiu's matter! He also knew that this matter was exceptionally dangerous, and if Zhao Chen did not believe him, then he could only die by sending these words to Zhe Keqiu's ears! However, it was already difficult for him to coexist peacefully with Zhe Keqiu under these circumstances. He could only place his hopes on Zhao Chen, hoping that he would be able to come back to his senses, hoping that Zhao Chen would work hard and defeat Zhe Keqiu in the end! That was why he had clenched his teeth and revealed the truth about Zhe Keqiu!

"Master Fold is very loyal to me. He sees that I am tired every day, so he helped me manage my affairs! Kang An, you can't talk about this ever again! " Zhao Chen said.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Kang An was stunned once again!

He never thought that the emperor would be muddleheaded to such an extent. Zhe Keqiu was obviously ambitious, but Zhao Chen actually treated him as someone who had good intentions for him! He was extremely depressed in his heart. However, thinking about how the Emperor was only 11 years old, this matter was understandable! But now, Zhao Chen did not believe him. If Zhao Chen were to tell Zhe Keqiu these words, he would be in deep trouble! For a moment, Kang An was drenched in sweat!

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Your Majesty is truly kind! " Kang An said.

At this moment, Kang An was finally relieved!

Alright, Xiao Linzi will be coming in soon, go out first! Zhao Chen said.

"Yes sir!" Kang An said.

Kang An hurriedly left the place, and at the door, he bumped into Lin Bao. Lin Bao asked: Why is Master Kang also here?

Kang An said: "We can't find His Majesty's plane, so I have to help you find it!"

That was the reason he had come up with. At the moment, he casually said that there were no flaws at all!

Lin Bao did not think too much and immediately exchanged a few words of greetings. Lin Bao walked into Dry Clear Palace and said with an enchanting smile: "Your Majesty, Master Fold has already sent a thousand years old Yellow Flower Pear Wood into the palace! What a big piece, do you want it to be delivered here right now? "

Zhao Chen was surprised: "Quickly send it over, it's really great!"

Lin Bao left again while Zhao Chen stood in front of the window, looking outside while thinking about Kang An's matters in his heart!

Today, Kang An had appeared exceptionally strange! According to Zhao Chen's thoughts, even if he had helped Kang An and the Kangmai, it would be impossible for Kang An to serve him so quickly! After all, Kang An had followed Zhe Keqiu for more than ten years, how could he betray Zhe Keqiu just because of such a small favor! In Zhao Chen's opinion, Kang An coming here today should be a kind of "probing"! Maybe Zhe Keqiu still did not trust him, so he let Kang An test him! As a result, Zhao Chen did not express his sincerity, what he said was just empty words, words, and not a single flaw!

He had never thought of the Kangmai's factors, and simply did not understand what kind of person the Kangmai was! That was why he had such a conclusion!

"We'll take it slowly in the future! Kang An is right here in the palace, there's plenty of opportunities for me to interact with him! If he truly defends himself to me, and indeed betrayed Zhe Keqiu, that is indeed good news! He was the manager of the Managed, with him as a spy, it would be much easier to deal with Zhe Keqiu in the future! However, this matter is still very strange! " Zhao Chen secretly thought.

Not long after, Lin Bao brought the yellow rosewood over. Zhao Chen began to carpentry happily, to say nothing of this.

When it was the fourth day of the tenth month, Zhao Chen went out to hunt once again.

After arriving in the forest, Kang An once again approached Zhao Chen stealthily, and said: "Your Majesty, this humble subject swears on behalf of my mother that I will definitely serve Your Majesty!"

Zhao Chen was standing on top of the mountain at the moment. Looking at the snow falling from the sky, he said with a smile, "I know! Not only you, all the civil and military ministers in the world are loyal to me! I am very satisfied in my heart! "

Kang An wanted to cry, but no tears came out as he said, "Your Majesty, I am different from those ministers! All the ministers will listen to Zhe Keqiu, I will not listen to Zhe Keqiu! "

Zhao Chen said: "You can't do this! The Master Fold is the Privy Envoys. After Li Gang left, I have decided to let him take the position of prime minister! He has taken care of the affairs of the country for me, do not disobey his orders! "

Kang An said anxiously: "Your Majesty, Zhe Keqiu wants to harm you!"

Zhao Chen said: "You are speaking nonsense!"

Kang An asked: "Why does Your Majesty not believe this humble subject's words? In order to be in charge of the imperial government, he sent an eunuch to the palace. He told the emperor to stop attending court early so that he could meddle in the affairs of state without restraint! Your Majesty, think about it.

Zhao Chen thought for a while, then said: "What you said might make sense!"

Kang An's face revealed a surprised smile, and said: "Your Majesty, you are still young, and should be studying well, yet Zhe Keqiu allowed His Majesty Lin Bao to hunt every day, and be a carpenter every day, wasn't he also doing this to harm Your Majesty?"

Zhao Chen said: "But all of these are things that we sincerely like!"

Kang An said: "If His Majesty does not study properly now, if he does not have enough knowledge in the future, how will he govern the country?"

Zhao Chen pondered for a while longer, then said: "In that case, he has indeed wanted to harm us!"

Kang An replied, "Yes! This was the truth! His Majesty had saved the life of this humble subject's mother, and this humble subject's mother had taught this humble subject righteousness. It was only then that this humble subject understood that he had to be loyal to His Majesty! Two nights ago, this humble subject's mother even carved four words on his back! "

Zhao Chen asked: "Which four words?"

Kang An looked at his surroundings, and seeing that the other guards were extremely far away from here, he quickly took off his clothes, and only four words appeared in front of Zhao Chen, "Slayer the thief who broke his vow"! At this moment, the four words had already turned into scars and looked somewhat sinister!

Seeing these four words, Zhao Chen couldn't help but be a little moved! He finally started to believe in Kang An a little! However, he was still worried that it was Zhe Keqiu trying it out!

He was in a predicament, and there was no one beside him that he trusted. He also didn't dare to believe in anyone! Even if Kang An were to say these words, even if Kang An revealed the back of his mouth, he would not dare to believe them! However, he could not completely disappoint Kang An!

Zhao Chen immediately said: "We understand! From now on, I will study properly and I will go to the morning assembly! However, we still have to think carefully about the Master Fold! "

Kang An had already put on his clothes, and said: "For Your Majesty to be willing to do this, that is truly great! Your Majesty, this humble subject has been thinking about this matter for the past few days. Many of the imperial guards sympathized with Your Majesty and were willing to serve him! This humble subject will secretly persuade these people, if they are willing to work with this humble subject to deal with Zhe Keqiu, then this humble subject will carve the words' Slaughtering Broken Bandits' on their backs. If they are unwilling, then this humble subject will have no choice but to be ruthless and kill those who are unwilling! In the future, this humble subject will help His Majesty kill this Demon General sooner or later! "

Zhao Chen started to believe in Kang An more and more, but he still left some words behind, and tried to speak: "If clan leader Zhuliu truly wants to frame us, I only need one word to take him down! You have to know that I am the Son of Heaven, the one who commands the world! Why must you be so troublesome! "

Kang An was shocked, and said: "Your Majesty, you absolutely cannot do this! Right now, all the powers of the Master Fold were in the imperial court, and all the civil and military ministers were listening to the Master Fold! If you really do that, from today onwards, you will be under Master Fold's house arrest, and you won't be able to leave Dry Clear Palace! Now that the Master Fold is not on guard against you, we can still secretly plot against him, and there will still be a chance of success in the future! If His Majesty had done that, he would not have had a chance to succeed! "

Zhao Chen nodded: "We understand! Xiao Linzi and the guards are already here, let's talk about the others! "

Kang An revealed a surprised expression, and after a while, he said: "Your Majesty is so intelligent, this humble subject is truly impressed! Your Majesty, are we still going to the Changchun View later? "

Zhao Chen laughed: "I want to spend the night in Changchun View! However, there are not many guards who can stay there.

Kang An said: "This humble subject can stay in the residences outside!"

At the moment, Lin Bao was already at Zhao Chen's side, seeing that Zhao Chen and Kang An were talking, Lin Bao did not interrupt them!

Zhao Chen continued: You can live in the houses outside, but you cannot disturb the people! When you leave, you must give them some money as compensation! "

Lin Bao could finally interject at this moment. He smiled charmingly and asked, "What are Your Majesty and Lord Kang talking about?"

Zhao Chen laughed: "I am going to spend the night in Changchun View, Xiao Linzi, you stay with us, while Master Kang and the other guards are going to stay in the residence outside! I told him not to disturb the people! "

Lin Bao said with an enchanting smile, "His Majesty cares for the common people, he is truly a Sacred Ancient!"

Facing such praise, Zhao Chen seemed to be exceptionally happy, and laughed: "Let's go hunting, in two hours, let's go to Changchun View!"

That night, Zhao Chen and Wang Chongyang were alone in their room after arriving at Changchun View!

Wang Chongyang had already memorized the one thousand two hundred and ninety-six moves that Wang Chongyang had taught Zhao Chen in the Dream Butterfly Sword Technique! However, there were a hundred variations to each move. It would be difficult to master each of them!

"As long as you can understand the process from birth to death, from destruction to life, you will naturally be able to grasp all the changes! If you have nothing to do, you can read more Dao books. These are all helpful to you in comprehending the sword art! " Wang Chongyang said.

"Disciple understands! In fact, it was not just limited to being a Dao book. Reading some other works of Confucianism and Dharma was also beneficial for comprehending Dao sword techniques! Xian Xian said that he could use the mountain stone to take the jade. Everything is the same! " Zhao Chen said.

"Indeed, you're right!" Wang Chongyang said.

"Master, Master Li Gang also left Hanzhong City, I am truly lonely in the past! Why don't you come with me to the palace? We can talk more everyday, and you can teach me more about sword arts and martial arts! " Zhao Chen said.

He pleaded bitterly, but Wang Chongyang still shook his head!

Zhao Chen could only stop talking!

"Master, what kind of illness did Kang An's mother have a few days ago?" Zhao Chen said.

"It's just an ordinary typhoid! Master has treated her for a few days and she has now fully recovered! " Wang Chongyang said.

"He is a most filial person!" Wang Chongyang thought about it and said.

"The most filial of men … That's good! "Today, he swore in the name of his mother in front of me that he would not be wrong!" Zhao Chen said.

"Since it's on his mother's oath, it can't be wrong! This person is undoubtedly a filial son, do not doubt him! " Wang Chongyang did not ask what the problem was, and only went along with what Zhao Chen said!

"This is great!" An excited light appeared in Zhao Chen's eyes!

He had already been enduring for a long time, and now, the depressed days had finally started to change! Although it was just Kang An who had pledged allegiance to him, Kang An was, after all, the head of the Managed and his status was no small matter. All of these would greatly benefit his future affairs!
