I, Tianlaozhen Wangu, support the Empress from behind!

Chapter 287 The Strangely Appearing Woman

"Forehead--"

Chu He was slightly surprised by the old King Qian's straightforward attitude.

"Don't think too much. I'm not going around in circles with you now."

Old King Qian then followed up with the second sentence.

Ok!

Chu He now understood that the old King Qian was under a lot of pressure and was resentful because of his work.

Unfortunately, this situation was caused by him alone. No matter how hard or tiring it was, King Qian had to endure it himself.

"Your Majesty, it is like this. I came here to ask for a way out for Tan Zixuan and his men."

Since the leader asked him to be frank, Chu He went straight to the point.

"Why?"

"I promised him and others to give them a chance to live!" Chu He clasped his fists and bowed slightly.

Just a simple explanation.

"This kid..." Old King Qian cursed in his heart.

If it weren't for Baili Hongfei's strong recommendation, and if it weren't for the good work this kid has done these days.

He had already sent him back to guard the prison.

The tone of this speech.

Even more arrogant than him, the Emperor of Daqian.

"Do you know what crimes these people have committed?" King Qian pondered for a while and asked in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, I am a tainted witness. I beg Your Majesty to show leniency!"

As soon as Chu He heard the tone of the old King Qian, he knew that the matter was done, but the other party just needed a way out.

"Okay." Old King Qian nodded.

"Tan Zixuan asked him to resign his official position and stay in Tianjing City. The others were demoted to serve as minor officials at the border."

"Your Majesty is wise!" Chu He flattered him subtly.

Seeing Chu He still standing there, the old Qian Wang asked in surprise: "Boy, do you have anything else to do?"

"Your Majesty, I have devoted my life to the Great Qian and shed blood and sweat. I have no objection." Chu He saluted respectfully again.

Come on, old King Qian is such a fox.

As soon as Chu He said this, he knew that he was coming to ask for a reward.

"In this way, I will issue an edict to the clan office tomorrow to confer the title of Duke of a County on you." The old Prince Qian pondered for a while and spoke.

"Your Majesty, I am still young. This title is too high and will make others jealous and resentful..."

"Can we go into the treasure hall and choose a treasure instead?" Chu He clasped his fists and said.

Old Qian Wang:......

Eunuch Li:......

It was the first time for the two of them to see someone pick on the reward.

As for what Chu He mentioned about being young, they could just treat it as a joke.

Who would dare to offend someone who even dares to arrest a second-rank official of the current dynasty?

It's a blessing that he doesn't bully others.

"Yes!" The old King Qian was very frugal with words and waved his hand.

"Thank you, Your Majesty! I'll take my leave." Chu He's expression remained unchanged. He bowed respectfully and turned to leave.

When walking to the door.

The old Qian Wang's voice came, "The day after tomorrow, the Academy of Literature will hold its big exam. You will personally be there to preside over it. If any scoundrel dares to act recklessly, they will be killed without mercy!"

There was murderous intent in the old King Qian's tone.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured. With me here, there will be no chaos!" Chu He turned around and nodded in assurance.

He had recently gained some insights into the "Xuanming Xukong Sutra" and was just in need of someone to use his skills on to test his power.

Soon, Chu He arrived at the treasure hall, glanced at Eunuch Li beside him, and said, "General Manager, thank you for your help."

"Haha, County Lord Chu is too polite."

Eunuch Li smiled, took out the token and opened the door.

Seeing this, Chu He clasped his fists again, turned and went inside, disappearing from Eunuch Li's sight.

"This Duke Chu is not only courageous, but also deeply favored by the emperor..."

Eunuch Li looked at Chu He's disappearing back, shook his head and sighed.

He had been in the palace for decades, but this was the first time he had seen anyone dare to bargain with the old King Qian.

The key is that the old King Qian is not angry.

It seems that Eunuch Zhang, who has followed the old King Qian for hundreds of years, does not receive such treatment?

Inside the treasure hall.

Chu He looked around, the little fox demon only told him the characteristics of the Nine-tailed Sacred Order, but there were hundreds of thousands of treasures inside.

Even if he used his divine sense to investigate, it would still take some time.

Of course, if he is brave enough, he can take them all into the cave world.

Unfortunately, this thought flashed through Chu He's mind. Every treasure inside was recorded, and every once in a while, someone would come in and check them all.

Fortunately, the cave world seed he had taken away before was not numbered.

Otherwise, there would be no way to explain the lost items alone.

"It's not like... It's not... It's not..."

As time went by, the items in Chu He's mind were gradually eliminated.

Tens, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands...

He eliminated items one by one.

The Nine-Tailed Sacred Order was something that was seized by the old King Qian when he exterminated the Sky Fox Clan.

The Nine-Tailed Sacred Order is the highest token of the fox clan, engraved in their blood. Those who possess this order can command countless fox demons in the world.

The whole thing is a piece of emerald green jade. There is a charming woman on the front, and behind her are nine tails dancing in the jade.

On the back is the ancestral home of the fox clan, Qingqiu Fox Mountain.

And according to Hu Zhuyue's description, when the divine consciousness sweeps over this object, it will be contaminated by a trace of mist.

Unfortunately, Chu He searched almost the entire treasure hall, but could not find a single emerald green jade token.

"Could it be that someone took it away?"

Chu He couldn't help but doubt the accuracy of Hu Zhuyue and the others' information.

This thing is extremely valuable even in the entire treasure hall.

It was thrown here because the old King Qian looked down on it.

If anyone else knew.

He will definitely not let go of this thing and command the fox demons in the world. This is much more valuable than his Thunder Blade.

Moreover, Chu He guessed that Hu Zhirou had the same idea when she entered the Prince's Mansion.

It’s a pity that the good thing was ruined by a bandit.

Chu He shook his head.

The divine consciousness continued to search.

"Young...son..."

"Huh? Someone is calling me?" Chu He suddenly became a little confused.

What was he thinking about just now?

"Yeah, that's what I was thinking about just now." Chu He shook his confused head.

There seemed to be a layer of fog inside, making it impossible for him to see through it.

"Son..."

At this time, the shouting sounds coming from my ears gradually became clearer.

"A woman is calling me? Oh, what's my name?"

Chu He seemed a little confused.

He tried hard to recall, but there was always a voice calling in his ear. It was a gentle and sweet female voice.

Like the sound of nature, it laughed in his ears.

It tugged at his heartstrings all the time.

"Sir, come here... come here..."

As the woman's charming call became clearer, Chu He unconsciously walked towards the sound.

The bright moon appears after the clouds are parted.

In a valley, there is a huge pool with steam rising from the water. There seems to be a graceful figure bathing in it.

"When did I come to a valley?" Seeing this scene, Chu He had a lot of question marks in his mind.

He seemed to be looking for something? A woman?

"Sir, come here!"

At this time, the woman in the pool suddenly stopped. She was wearing thin clothes, and her snow-white skin was faintly visible, revealing a hint of temptation.

As her jade hands danced, vapor rose and she waved charmingly towards Chu He.

"I'm waiting for you inside..."
