C17 Garmented Chen King

He lay on his stomach on the roof and pulled off a tile. He listened to every word of the conversation in the room.

Chen Xiao thought that Yuan Mu Ling just wanted to get rid of Yuan Mu Chen for the throne. He didn't expect that he would overhear this shocking secret today. He was completely shocked.

This was a huge crime of treason!

For some reason, when the Tianmu Kingdom was mentioned, those pure, large eyes would always appear in his mind. He would always have the impulse to keep her by his side even if he didn't need the power of the Tianmu Kingdom. Gradually, he saw a trace of gentleness on his face.

"Your Highness?" Noticing Yuan Muling's distraction, Cang Lang called him again, which made Yuan Muling wake up as if he had just woken up from a dream. The gentleness on his face disappeared, and Cang Lang continued, "Your Highness, I will return to the Beiyang Kingdom soon to be in charge of the training of the Death Soldiers. I will also send you a message about where we will pick up the materials for the weapons, but..."

"Go on!"

"However, in order to prevent it from falling into the hands of others, I will hand over the Northern Yang Kingdom's method of writing to Hong Luan. Hong Luan is a member of our Northern Yang Kingdom, so she will naturally translate the letter and hand it over to you."

Cangyuan and Beiyang had never been on good terms, so there had never been any economic or cultural exchanges between the two countries since ancient times. Therefore, there was not a single person in Cangyuan who could read the words of the Beiyang Kingdom.

Hong Luan changed her gentle look and cupped her hands like a man, "Hong Luan will try her best to complete the mission."

The hand that Chen Xiao used to hold the sword almost started to tremble. He couldn't believe that the Third Prince, who usually seemed so humble and polite, would do such a thing. He had to report this to Yuan Mu Chen immediately.

Chen Xiao carefully put the tiles back together, stood up, and jumped into the night.

Yuan Muchen had been waiting in Jing Ren Hall until Yuan Muyan had fallen asleep before he returned to Zhengyang Hall. Seeing Chen Xiao anxiously waiting outside the hall, he already knew that he must have found something important.

Seeing Yuan Muchen walk over, Chen Xiao immediately went up to greet him, "Your Highness, I found out something very important."

Yuan Muchen's eyes turned cold as he opened his mouth and spat out a word, "Speak!"

It was late at night. Chen Xiao leaned towards Yuan Muchen's ear and lowered his voice, "Your Highness..."

Hearing what Chen Xiao said, Yuan Muchen's tall and straight body suddenly trembled." How could Third Brother betray the country? " If he just wanted the throne and wanted to get rid of him, he could understand, but he couldn't accept betraying the country.

"Your Highness, I heard it with my own ears and saw it with my own eyes," Chen Xiao cupped his hands and promised.

"This is a very important matter. Don't tell anyone about it before we have proof." Of course, he trusted Chen Xiaoyuan and Mu Chen. Although he didn't want to believe it, he couldn't let his emotions affect the entire Cang Yuan Country and even the Tianmu Kingdom. Yuan Muchen quickly recovered from his shock.

"Yes!"

"Also, keep a close watch on the Hall of Justice's every move, and send people to keep an eye on Miss Hong Luan. If she makes the slightest movement, immediately report it!" A cold light flashed through Yuan Muchen's eyes.

"Yes!" Chen Xiao saluted with his sword.

"Wait a moment!"

"Your Highness, do you have any other orders?"

"Your Highness, do you have any other orders?"

"Yes!"

After Chen Xiao left, Yuan Muchen fell into deep thought again. If he wanted to make a large number of weapons, he would need a large amount of copper, tin, and lead.

As the sky was getting brighter, Cheng Luoluo got up and dressed up. It was the day when the Seventh Prince would return to the court to report to the king.

Qiankun Hall

"Your son greets the father." All the officials stood on the left and right sides of the hall. Cheng Luo Luo stood beside Yuan Mu Ling. She was the only woman in the court today. When she heard a familiar voice behind her, she suddenly turned around and saw Yuan Mu Chen in golden armor, showing off his tall and straight figure. The golden sunlight from outside the hall shone on his body and was instantly killed by his appearance. For some reason, she felt that Yuan Mu Chen was even more handsome than when she first saw him that day. His eyebrows were sharp and his eyes were bright. Such a perfect man only existed in books.

Yuan Muchen happened to look up at her as well. Their eyes met.

What the f * ck! He looked disgusted!

Cheng Luoluo's infatuated eyes were almost glued to Yuan Muchen, but Yuan Muchen only gave her a casual glance and instantly felt embarrassed. He weakly rolled his eyes at her and withdrew his lustful gaze.

The subtle interactions between the two of them were all seen by Yuan Muling. His deep eyes narrowed and a hint of gloominess flashed through his eyes.

Yuan Chongqing, who was sitting on the dragon throne in the main hall, looked at Yuan Muchen. His eyes were filled with uncontrollable joy.

"Hehe, Seventh Brother, you defeated the pirates of the Northern Forest first and then killed Yu Dang of the Northern Yang Kingdom. You have done a great job! Please rise!"

"Thank you, father!" Yuan Muchen stood up and took out a paper from his pocket. He continued, "Father, this is the surrender document from the pirates of the Northern Forest."

Hearing this, the Imperial Court was in an uproar. Other than Marquis Xia Jun and a few others, most of them were praising Yuan Muchen.

Eunuch Zhang waved the horsetail whisk in his hand and walked down from the horsetail whisk with a bow. He took the paper from Yuan Muchen and saw that Yuan Chongqing was flipping through the paper. Yuan Muchen continued, "Father, we have captured over three hundred prisoners and captured five thousand weapons..."

"Haha, good, ahem, ahem... Seventh Brother is indeed worthy of being called the Cang Yuan War God. I believe that as long as you are here, I, Cang Yuan, will be indestructible. Eunuch Zhang has passed down my order that the Seventh Prince has made a great contribution to protecting the country, and is hereby conferred the title of Duke of Chen and will be given a mansion, the Tai Chen Palace!"

Yuan Chongyang was overjoyed and immediately gave an imperial decree that made Yuan Muchen King of Chen and gave him a mansion. Usually, only after the new Emperor ascended the throne would the other princes be made Kings. Yuan Muchen had broken a precedent this time.

Yuan Chongqing's imperial edict immediately caused an uproar in the imperial court, and Cheng Luoluo was also shocked for a moment. The Tai Chen Palace? Was that where Emperor Donghua lived?

"Father, your son..."

Yuan Muchen hesitated for a while and then cupped his hands. He was about to say something when Prime Minister Xia Junhou stepped forward and bowed, "Your majesty, I don't think it is appropriate. The title of vassal king is something that only happens after the new king ascends to the throne. It is against the rules for you to make the seventh highness just like that. Besides... although the seventh highness has made a great contribution this time, he has done something wrong before..."

As soon as Marquis Xia Jun refused to give up, other adults began to second the motion, "Your Majesty, I second it."

"I also agree. Emperor, we cannot erase the achievements of the seventh highness but it is true that the seventh highness disobeyed the decree. Emperor..."

The speaker was one of Marquis Xia Jun's ministers. He looked at Yuan Muling with a profound look. Yuan Muling blinked his eyes unnoticeably before he mustered up his courage to go forward.

"Your Majesty, this lowly subject feels that the Seventh Highness has been guarding the border for many years. He should be able to pass." The first to speak up for Yuan Muchen was Xuanyuan Ta. Xuanyuan Ta was righteous and just, which was why the Fourth Princess liked him.

"Yes, Your Majesty. Besides, I do not think that Your Highness has done anything wrong. He is only looking at the big picture."

"I agree..."

... ""

The officials all had different opinions and Cheng Luo Luo was stunned for a moment. This situation was just like the ones in the dramas.

Cheng Luoluo could tell that the majority of the officials who wanted to impeach Yuan Muchen were Xia Junhou's men, and the person behind Xia Junhou might really be Yuan Muling. Thinking of this, she cast an evil glance at the two brothers. Although Yuan Muchen treated her well, she felt that there was a huge conspiracy behind him.

"Your Majesty, there are some things that Luoluo does not know whether to say or not?" When the argument was at its most intense, a clear voice sounded. It actually stopped the chaotic scene.

Everyone, including Yuan Muchen and Yuan Muling, looked over to Cheng Luo Luo.

Yuan Mu Chen squinted his eyes. He was very curious about what she wanted to say at this moment.

"Luo Luo, feel free to say whatever you want to say." Yuan Chongyang was originally very annoyed, but when he saw that it was Cheng Luo, his expression instantly eased up.

Cheng Luo Luo took a big step to the side and bowed." Your highness, although I don't know what happened, I know that a drop of water should be returned with a spring, not to mention the seventh highness."

As Cheng Luo finished speaking, there was another uproar in the court, "What? What do you mean?"

"That's right, the Seventh Highness has just returned triumphantly..."

"Could it be that the Seventh Highness has known the Princess of the Tianmu Kingdom from the very beginning?"

... ""

Listening to the whispers around her, Yuan Muchen looked at her in confusion. She turned her head and gave a faint smile, but no one noticed the coldness in Yuan Muchen's eyes. His hands, which were hanging by his sides, were clenched into fists.

After hearing Cheng Luoluo's words, Yuan Chongyang, who was sitting on the dragon throne, was surprised, and then pleasantly surprised. He coughed a few times in excitement, while Eunuch Zhang quickly bent down to help him comb his back.

"Cough cough..."

"Emperor, don't be agitated. Be careful of your dragon body!"
