C361 First World War Fame

Han Chen turned the tide? Kill Xi Shaocheng and bring him back?

This simple sentence immediately caused the entire Hall of Golden Chimes to fall into a deathly silence. Many civil servants and military generals had stiff smiles on their faces. Their gazes were filled with strange expressions as they looked at the soldiers who had come to report, wondering if they had heard wrongly.

Qiao Feiyan's body trembled, her beautiful face had a similar look of disbelief.

Before Emperor Qiao Hongyu could say anything, Old General Xi Long had already rushed forward to interrogate the soldiers who had come to report. What did you say? Say that again? "

"Reporting to Old General Xi." "Young General Xi, he … he has lost."

Each word was like a thunderclap that exploded in everyone's minds. All of the civil and military officials in the great hall were completely stupefied.

Xi Long frowned like two undead silkworms. "Impossible. Impossible." He pointed at the other soldier who reported the news, "Earlier, he clearly said that Han Chen had lost. Why did you say that he had won now? Are you lying? You dare to lie in front of the Emperor of the throne room, do you all not want your heads? "

The two soldiers who reported the news trembled, their faces turning ghastly pale.

The soldier that reported the message laid on the ground once again, and replied while trembling, "This general didn't lie, what I got was that General Xi is about to win."

The messenger beside him also tried to defend himself, "I didn't panic, this is the news I just received."

Everyone in the hall was especially puzzled by the two's completely different replies. Even if you gave them ten heads, they wouldn't dare to lie here. If that was the case, then something unexpected must have happened.

It was still the emperor, Qiao Hongyu that had to remain calm. He swept his torch-like gaze across the second soldier and said solemnly. "Tell me the details of the news in detail."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The soldier kowtowed, and then explained in a serious tone, "The soldiers of the Green Mountain camp counterattacked in a large area. Just when they were about to cross the East Lake, more than a hundred archers suddenly appeared on the shore. So it turned out that Han Chen had always been the commander of the seats for the main generals, and he hadn't had any conflicts with the soldiers under his command at all. "The soldiers who left the military camp were all hiding in the area around the East Lake."

What? Everyone frowned as their faces revealed looks of surprise.

The messenger continued, "There are archers on the shore blocking the way, so the silver armored soldiers can only retreat. But who would have thought that even their retreat paths were sealed off. "

The soldier explained the news he received back in detail. From how Han Chen had used the Invisibility Spell to send people to take a look around, to how he managed to get rid of the base of the Green Mountain camp. After that, he narrated the entire story of the nearly two hundred Silver Armored Soldiers trapped in the East Lake.

In an instant, the civil and military ministers felt like there were thousands of horses galloping in their hearts, unable to calm down no matter how hard they tried.

General Zhao Bo's face was full of shock, and everyone was thinking about one question in their hearts. Was this really his first time leading a group of soldiers? If this was true, then his intelligence was truly too terrifying.

Qiao Feiyan was overjoyed, a bright luster appearing in her watery eyes.

Xi Long trembled and asked in a deep voice, "What happened to General Xi?"

As Xi Shaocheng's father, Xi Long understood his son's personality very well. Having suffered such a blow, it was enough for him to act without thinking about the consequences. If he were to kill or cripple Han Chen in his rage, he would have to bear the consequences.

Everyone's eyes turned to look at the soldier who had reported the news. They had the same thought as Xi Long in their minds.

The soldier did not dare to look directly at Xi Long and obediently lowered his head as he replied, "General Xi, the young general was severely injured by Han Chen. After being rescued, he is no longer in danger of his life."

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

There was no such thing as scary, only scary. If the information just now had been a thunderclap in the sky above everyone's heads … This news struck their bodies like thunder.

"What did you say?" Xi Shaocheng was heavily injured by Han Chen? " Xi Long fiercely glared at the soldier who reported the news. His appearance was as fierce as a tiger that was about to devour a human.

"Yes, yes, Young General Xi was severely injured by Han Chen."

Crash! * The entire throne room immediately burst into an uproar; it was as chaotic as a market. Xi Long's face was ashen, like a frosted eggplant. He had been praised by everyone until now, but now his face was flushed red and turned into a huge joke.

At that moment, even Qiao Hongyu was unable to maintain his composure, he suddenly stood up from the dragon throne, his imposing face was filled with shock.

"Han Chen won, Han Chen won." Blacky, who had been hiding in the center of Qiao Feiyan's palm all this time, couldn't help but jump in joy.

"Shh!" Qiao Feiyan made a small gesture to indicate that the other party should not speak. Blacky obediently withdrew its head. The little fellow was still very happy.

From the very beginning, Qiao Feiyan had always believed in Han Chen, unconditionally. That miraculous man had never once disappointed her.

Qiao Hongyu let all the people in the hall clamor, because he too felt his heart in a mess. One must know that there was a total of four levels of difference between Han Chen and him. However, it was that young man who was not highly regarded that gave everyone an unexpected 'pleasant surprise'. Qiao Hongyu could not help but regret that he was not there to watch the battle.

In the following day, the news of Han Chen's battle with Young General Xi had spread far and wide, and the entire imperial city was abuzz. In the streets and alleys, the tavern and teahouse were all discussing this matter.

"I really did not expect that General Xi would lose to a nameless nobody."

"What kind of nobody?" If you don't know, don't spout nonsense. That Han Chen is someone that the princess is fond of, and might even become the Prince Consort of our Yue Lan Empire in the future. "

"Is that so? No wonder he's so powerful. So he's someone that the princess has her eyes on. "

Han Chen's name swept through the imperial city like a torrential storm. As for Xi Shaocheng, whose reputation had turned sour previously, he could only stay in the General's Residence to recuperate. He had brought all of this upon himself.

Evening, within the pavilion in the imperial garden.

A square stone table was filled with delicious food and wine. Han Chen, Qiao Feiyan, Yan Wu and Xiao Hei were on four sides. However, Blacky was still standing on the table while holding a chicken leg that was half the size of its body and munching on it. It was funny and cute.

"I never expected that you would be able to fight such a beautiful battle." Yan Wu said with interest as he played with the wine cup in his hand.

Han Chen smiled slightly, "It's rare to hear such praises from your mouth."

"Oh? "Is that so?" Yan Wu asked indifferently.

"That's right." Han Chen said as he turned to look at Qiao Feiyan. Right now, she was wearing a white evening dress. Her beautiful long hair was tied back with a silver hairpin, making her look extremely beautiful.

Qiao Feiyan also noticed Han Chen's burning gaze and frowned, asking softly, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, I thought you were very beautiful."

Qiao Feiyan blushed and replied shyly, "There's someone else here!"

Han Chen rubbed his nose, laughed and did not say anything else.

Just then, Monte suddenly appeared at the entrance of the garden and walked towards the pavilion. This old official pays his respects to the princess. "

The few of them looked at the Monte. Qiao Feiyan asked gently, "Uncle Meng, why are you here?"

Monte looked at Han Chen and answered, "His Majesty wants to see Han Chen, I am here to notify him."

"What?" royal father wants to see Han Chen. "

"Yes."

Qiao Feiyan was surprised, she looked at Han Chen and said: "I will accompany you."

"No need, you're afraid that your father will eat me?" Han Chen smiled and comforted the other party, then nodded towards Monte, "I will accompany you there."

Qiao Feiyan was still a little worried, but after thinking about Royal Father's personality and personality, she felt relieved.

A moment later, in the royal study.

"Little brother Han Chen, His Majesty is waiting for you inside. I won't accompany you in."

"Mn, sorry to trouble you, Monte." Han Chen nodded and heaved a sigh of relief. He then opened the unlatched door and walked in.

The imperial study was decorated in a unique way. The luxurious carpet beneath his feet was soft and soft. The gold candlestick was lit with a bright light. The ruler of a country, Qiao Hongyu sat on the golden dragon throne in the hall and recited the imperial report.

"Han Chen pays his respect to the Emperor." Han Chen stopped about two meters away from the stage, clasped his fists, and bowed.

Qiao Hongyu stopped what he was doing and looked at Han Chen.

Han Chen's face was calm, neither humble nor arrogant. There was no change in his emotions under the gradually increasing ferocity in the other party's gaze.

Not long later, Qiao Hongyu retracted his sharp gaze, and nodded in praise. "Good, very good. It is indeed rare for you to have such self-control at such a young age. "

"Your Majesty, you are flattering me. May I know what it is that you have called me here for?" Han Chen said.

Qiao Hongyu did not directly answer the other party's question. Instead, his eyes slightly narrowed and his tone became slightly more serious. Han Chen, I have indeed underestimated you. Almost everyone is looking down on you, but you actually gave us such a big surprise. "However." Qiao Hongyu's voice paused for a bit, before continuing, "If you want to be together with the princess, that alone isn't enough."

When Qiao Feiyan was mentioned, her mood somewhat changed. Indeed, her background and Qiao Feiyan's were worlds apart. Even if she didn't care, there were still many people who would care.

"If Your Majesty has anything to say, just say it!" Han Chen replied.

Qiao Hongyu slightly nodded, he stood up and looked at Han Chen, "Now that you have heavily injured Xi Shaocheng, he will probably not be able to bring his troops to battle. I will let you go and take his place, as long as you return triumphantly from your battle with the Grand Seal Empire. I will no longer oppose you and the princess. "

Han Chen's face changed, he did not expect the other party to seek him out for this reason. Lifting his eyelids slightly, he asked in a deep voice, "What if I lose?"
