The Great Hero [Comprehensive Martial Arts]

After a lot of tossing, it was already past the time for lunch. Perhaps he was too hungry, and his emotions had not yet calmed down completely. The three members of King Taiping's family had no appetite for food.

Chu Xiao was not hungry either.

He got up late in the morning, ate breakfast late, and was tortured just now. To be honest, if he didn't take into account the presence of elders, he wouldn't even want to sit down.

I just want to lie flat and be a salted fish_(:3∠)_

So everyone simply saved the effort of going to the restaurant, and just filled their stomachs with some snacks and tea.

Although Chu Xiao had been holding on all the time without showing any signs of fatigue, Princess Taiping still noticed the problem from the other party's frequent adjustment of sitting posture, so after filling her stomach, she decisively dragged her husband and son home.

Of course, before she left, she did not forget to tell the two of them.

"Now that Ah Jiu has returned to the capital, it is natural to go to the palace to explain to the Queen Mother and His Majesty... But it is getting late today, and there is no time to make careful preparations in the future. It would be a bit rushed to visit directly."

"That's why your Uncle Wang and I have decided to visit after tomorrow morning."

King Taiping was at a loss when he heard this.

Why doesn't he remember when he discussed this matter with the princess?

"If my nephew is free, you might as well accompany us into the palace tomorrow." As the saying goes, reciprocate Chu Xiao, the princess thought of Chu Xiao's kindness, and wanted to help Chu Xiao as much as possible in Ye Gucheng's matter, "When the time comes we The whole family can also have a reunion dinner together.”

The Empress Dowager did not see any objection, but Emperor Qing was different.

The concubine, who had heard a lot of inside information from her husband in private, felt that it was necessary for her to help Chu Xiao hold up the stage in front of Emperor Qing and say good things.

Fearing that Chu Xiao would not be able to hear the hint in her words, the princess made a special wink at Chu Xiao.

Chu Xiao immediately understood.

He quickly smiled and nodded in agreement, then pulled Ye Gucheng and sent the three of them to the door.

After watching the three of them get into the carriage, Chu Xiao finally relaxed. He rubbed his waist and said weakly, "Let's go back too. I'm so sleepy and I want to sleep."

"it is good."

Thinking of what Gong Jiu said earlier, Ye Gucheng couldn't help frowning, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.

He secretly decided that when he returned to the mansion next time, he must ask the doctor to prescribe a prescription for his little lover to make up for it.

Chu Xiao was really sleepy. Not long after getting into the carriage, he fell asleep in Ye Gucheng's arms. Ye Gucheng ordered people to drive the carriage slower while carefully protecting him in his arms, for fear of being on the road. The bumps will affect Chu Xiao's sleep.

Kyoto is bustling, not to mention the blue sky and day, even at night, the streets are full of people coming and going, which is inevitably noisy.

Knowing that his master was asleep, the coachman took a detour and tried to take some trails with little traffic.

This really made it a lot cleaner.

Seeing that his little lover's frown had eased, Ye Gucheng's eyes softened, and he finally thought about other things.

He also clearly heard the hint before the princess left.

Regarding the matter of entering the palace to meet the Empress Dowager and Emperor Qing, Ye Gucheng didn't have the slightest intention of resisting, but was rarely nervous.

After all, the purpose of his trip this time was not just to meet Chu Xiao's parents.

If possible, he would also like to persuade the other party to hold a serious wedding with his little lover, even if this wedding might not be understood and accepted by the world.

But so what?

Ye Gucheng's purpose was not to prove anything to the world.

The reason why he came up with this idea was because he heard the careless words that the old housekeeper said when he paid homage to the previous city lord, Ye Gucheng's deceased father.

The old housekeeper and Ye Gucheng's father are about the same age, they grew up together and have a very close relationship.

So every year, when paying homage to Ye Gucheng's father, the old butler would inform each other of the changes in Ye Gucheng and Feixian Island one by one, so as to comfort the spirit of the other party.

And this time, the focus was naturally on Chu Xiao.

Regarding the fact that Ye Gucheng finally got rid of being single and found a partner at an early age, the old housekeeper expressed both relief and helplessness.

What is gratifying is that he no longer has to worry about Ye Gucheng living with a sword for the rest of his life.

Unfortunately, his dream of organizing a wedding for Ye Gucheng himself may not come true in his lifetime.

In fact, this regret is nothing, the old butler mainly feels distressed, distressed that Ye Gucheng and Chu Xiao can only bear the vague and ambiguous title of lover for the rest of their lives, and cannot be a legitimate couple like ordinary people.

This sentence touched Ye Gucheng's heartstrings.

If it was just about himself, Ye Gucheng might not care, but when it comes to Chu Xiao...

He was always unwilling to wrong Chu Xiao in the slightest.

If they can only be regarded as true partners after paying homage and getting married, then they should hold a wedding.

But this is easy to say, but it may be difficult to do.

How to convince Chu Xiao's family?

Ye Gucheng had an ominous premonition.

Chu Xiao, who didn't know anything about it, fell asleep until the next day.

After nourishing his energy enough, he was coaxed by Ye Gucheng to drink a bowl of tonic soup reluctantly, and he jumped up and down again, walking like wind.

That cheerful little appearance made Emperor Qing, who was in a very complicated mood after receiving the communication, almost turn black.

Can't you care about his feelings?

This is the water poured out by the raised brother!

"Good morning, Brother Emperor." Chu Xiao casually greeted Emperor Qing, then skipped him straight away, and pulled Ye Gucheng towards the Empress Dowager smilingly, "Mother and Empress, look, this is Acheng!"

That smug and proud tone was like presenting a treasure.

The queen mother gave Chu Xiao a dumbfounding look, then smiled and looked at Ye Gucheng calmly.

During this period of time, she has been asking Situ Jing about Ye Gucheng's affairs. For some reason, in Situ Jing's mouth, Ye Gucheng's image is actually not very good. Why is he so old, has a cold face, and talks less? It's fun, the Queen Mother whispered in her heart.

Little eyesight can't be that bad, can it?

Fortunately, although Situ Jing disliked Ye Gucheng in every possible way, she would not intentionally fabricate some lies to slander him.

No matter how reluctant, the little girl will tell the queen mother that although Ye Gucheng has many shortcomings, he is really good to Chu Xiao, and he can't find anything bad.

Now that she finally saw herself, the queen mother's first impression of Ye Gucheng was similar to what Situ Jing described.

It might not be obvious just by looking at it, but Ye Gucheng's age does seem a bit old when he stands with his youngest son.

The expressionless look is quite apt to be described as an ice cube face.

He really didn't talk much, and after greeting himself politely, he didn't say a word.

Barely get a passing grade.

After scoring Ye Gucheng from the bottom of her heart, the queen mother calmly recruited Emperor Qing who was standing at the door and was about to turn into a lookout stone to her side.

Then he said to Ye Gucheng very bluntly: "As a mother, I don't have any opinion on you and small things, but my eldest son is different. They all say that an elder brother is like a father. You have to pass his test." Just do it."

Emperor Qing, who was named, subconsciously raised his chest and raised his head, intending to put on a majestic posture in front of Ye Gucheng.

I am delighted.

Never expected that he would still have the right to speak!

Taiping Wang and his wife who were on the sidelines: They were secretly rubbing together and a little nervous.

Gong Jiu: The good show is finally here =v=

Facing Emperor Qing's 'watching' eyes, Ye Gucheng's expression became more and more serious - although in the eyes of others, he was expressionless from beginning to end.

It seems very calm and calm.

But in fact……

Ye Gucheng had anticipated this kind of situation in advance, and learned from the old housekeeper, prepared his rhetoric in advance, and the preparation work can be said to be quite sufficient.

Ran and egg.

At this moment, he actually forgot all the speeches he had prepared in advance.

After thinking for a while, Ye Gucheng still couldn't remember the content, so he had to act on the spot, and chose a topic full of self-conscious sincerity: "Ye is willing to swear with a sword that he will never let Xiaoxiao down in the future. If the verbal oath is not enough to convince His Majesty Don't worry, Ye can also be hired by the city—"

- What the hell?

Emperor Qing's eyelids trembled, and they exploded in an instant!

"Pin? What pin! Want to marry my little one? Let me tell you, there's no way! There's not even a window!"

His ferocious expression, fierce tone, and firm attitude stunned everyone present.

Well, including the two parties involved, Chu Xiao and Ye Gucheng.

As if the fuse had been ignited, Emperor Qing exploded completely.

He stared at Ye Gucheng with a murderous look, and continued to growl without even taking a breath: "Even if the princess gets married, only the son-in-law will be married, let alone my little prince?!"

"If you want to be hired, it should be my little one who will do it for you!"

This is all a mess.

Rubbing the twitching brows, Chu Xiao interjected weakly: "What are the two big men talking about marrying... Brother Huang, are you thinking too much?"

Hearing what Chu Xiao said, Emperor Qing was immediately aggrieved.

"But he obviously has bad intentions, Xiao Xiao, and he clearly wants to abduct you. Is it easy for me and my mother to pull you away? We—"

"Yes, yes, it's not easy." Chu Xiao laughed dryly, trying to calm Emperor Qing's emotions, "Brother, don't get excited, let's talk about something, maybe Acheng just made a nervous slip of the tongue gone?"

Emperor Qing felt that his silly brother was too naive.

How could it be just a slip of the tongue that Allure was hired?

No, he has to expose Ye Gucheng's true face, so that his silly brother can see the truth clearly!
