Chapter 943 Chips (First)
Remember in one second
The "meeting" in the main hall ended successfully. After everyone dispersed, Chen Rui was left behind by Emperor Rex.
"You surprise me, my son, you are the master of crafting? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"Because Your Majesty didn't ask."
Rex's eyes flashed: "Then I will officially ask you now, what have you achieved in the past seven years?"
"Accurately speaking, I have acquired... some ability to survive," Chen Rui said calmly. "The Arthur of that year was already dead. He was stabbed in the back. I don't remember the person who stabbed the knife. Maybe it's a terrible enemy, or maybe it's a more terrible relative. Such a lesson is enough. Now, at least I won't be sold by others and I am grateful to count the money. "
Rex savoured the meaning of these words carefully, pondering silently.
"If Your Majesty has nothing else to do, I will retire first." Chen Rui bowed.
"Tonight, you can go to Ziyuan Palace, there is someone waiting for you there." Rex said suddenly.
"Ziyuan Palace?" This familiar place name made Chen Rui's memory throb again, and those blue eyes engraved in his heart appeared in his mind, as deep as the sea, and many silent memory fragments began to recover again.
"tonight?"
"Just tonight." Rex said indifferently: "You should understand that she is Sophie's concubine. Although your short-lived uncle has been dead for a long time, he is your uncle after all, do you understand?"
Chen Rui rubbed his temples: "I seem to remember something. Back then, as a noblewoman of the Lanyao Empire and a teacher at the Starlight Academy, she eventually became the victim of a marriage with an old guy. It was also instigated by His Majesty. "
"good."
"For the benefit of the Empire?"
"For the benefit of the Empire!" Rex's tone was decisive.
"So, 'Arthur' begged for three days and three nights at that time. He was still rejected by His Majesty? What a fool." Chen Rui shrugged after sorting out the large amount of memories that emerged in his mind.
Rex frowned: "With your current judgment, you should understand that the identity of that woman is not suitable for you at all, and Princess Lanbis is the right match for you."
Chen Rui was noncommittal, but said indifferently: "Similarly, with my current judgment, I have also figured out more things... His Majesty's decision at that time was not only for 'Arthur', or in other words, Sophie was the The real point! The sad Uncle Sophie. The sad woman, and the sad... 'Arthur' is just a victim."
This kind of calm, like an outsider's tone, was heard in Rex's ears, and he felt extremely harsh: "You, are you questioning me?"
"It's nothing, just a little emotional. After 'Arthur' returned, the Ziyuan Palace has been closed by His Majesty's Guards. Now that I have shown some value, His Majesty has changed his original intention and released this bargaining chip... ...even though. Her name is my dead uncle's woman; though, only for one night."
"What am I? What is she?" Chen Rui smiled and looked straight into Rex's cold eyes: "My Majesty, I want to know. In your eyes, is there anyone other than yourself? Are they just chips?"
"No." Rex's voice also cooled down: "Including myself."
Chen Rui was slightly surprised and remained silent for a while. He opened his mouth and said: "Since this is the case, then. Please forgive me. This topic is no longer suitable for discussion today. If there is a chance, I hope to have a smoother communication with Your Majesty."
Rex looked deeply at this completely unfamiliar son, as if it was the first time that he faced him like this: "You are not the 'Arthur' I know."
"I said that from the moment of disappearance, the prince of that year was already dead." Chen Rui's words were a pun, "In front of you, there is an 'Arthur' who has changed a lot in order to survive."
"Indeed, I can no longer judge you according to the original impression. I really don't know whether to be sad or happy, my prince." Rex sighed, "Now you are qualified to inherit my position, maybe Better than Garfield and Luke."
Chen Rui noticed that he used 'Prince' instead of 'Son', indicating that Rex had raised his position to a real height, which was also the entrance to another "battlefield".
"Your Majesty, as far as the ruler is concerned, you are still very young, so I don't think any prince should have too many lofty ideas." Chen Rui seemed extremely calm, the reason why Garfield was able to jump like this , not necessarily without the pusher of Rex himself. The emperor's scheming and skill are unfathomable, far surpassing Lei Chan, and the entire empire is firmly in his hands.
This kind of control is naturally unique. Even the closest person who wants to touch this kind of control will be regarded as an enemy.
"Although my appearance will break the original balance and even more things, I can definitely promise one thing, I will not shake His Majesty's rule, but will only make it stronger."
Rex raised his brows: "So, what do you want?"
Chen Rui recited the words "Holy Light Robe" in his heart, but he definitely couldn't bring it up now. He just showed an indifferent smile: "You will know. Your Majesty, if you really understand what I want, Then, it will be the day when 'Arthur' is called 'father' again."
"Father" instead of "Father"?
Emperor Rex leaned on the throne, watching the strange yet familiar figure gradually fade away, his eyelids drooping gradually, whether he fell into contemplation or nostalgia.
in the palace.
Chen Rui wandered for a while, and finally walked in the direction of Ziyuan Palace.
Veronica Heber.
This noble lady of the Lanyao Empire, in the eyes of the huge Lanyao royal family, is only a branch of the abyss.
This woman who once made "Arthur" unforgettable, was the teacher and sister that "Arthur" was most obsessed with at the Starlight Academy, and was finally forced to marry Longhuang Empire, who was older than her father because of a tragic political marriage. Prince Sophie.
"Arthur" had begged his father Rex for three days and three nights outside the palace, but he still couldn't stop the marriage. Since then, Arthur's address to Rex has changed from "Father" to "Your Majesty".
As Chen Rui questioned Rex today, this marriage was actually more of a part of Rex's plan, and the target was Prince Sophie, who had become more powerful and threatened the emperor at that time.
Less than a year after the marriage, Prince Sophie and many of his wives and children died in an accident, and then Veronica "exposed" a conspiracy against the royal family as a witness. Big shuffle. In the end, Emperor Rex completely consolidated his absolute rule, and Veronica also changed from the side room to the "main room" because of her "merit". Of course, she was the widow of the deceased prince and stayed in the palace, so she couldn't. Return to the Lan Yao Empire.
Chen Rui didn't know the truth about the cause of Prince Sophie's death, but what was certain was that both "Arthur" and Veronica were just small pieces in the whole game of chess, poor victims.
Now, Veronica is once again used as a bargaining chip and pushed in front of Chen Rui.
overnight?
Chen Rui's face was a little gloomy, more of the anger from the "Arthur" part.
This kind of anger is just an instinctive emotion of fusion consciousness, and it cannot dominate Chen Rui's own thoughts. For Chen Rui, at least, he needs to see this Veronica.
Since he has inherited the consciousness and body of "Arthur", and since he has made public appearances as "Arthur", it is naturally impossible to escape some of the things or responsibilities that "Arthur" must face.
This kind of face-to-face will make the spiritual power of the fusion soul truly complete.
It is also the only way forward.
In front is the Ziyuan Palace.
The large number of guards stationed at the door had already received the order of Emperor Rex, and they saluted without stopping.
Chen Rui entered the hall of Ziyuan Palace unimpeded. The area of Ziyuan Palace was small and there were few people. There were only two maids in the entire hall. Chen Rui was told that Veronica was in the garden.
Chen Rui came to the small garden at the back of the hall. The area of the garden is proportional to the rudimentary facilities of the palace in front, but it is the only place in the entire Ziyuan Palace that can be called exquisite. It can be seen that the care here is very careful, maybe it is Vero. The only place where Nika can focus.
There is only one person in the garden.
Even if there are tens of millions of people, he will only see that figure in his eyes, the figure that "Arthur" haunts in his heart.
This is a feeling engraved in consciousness, and even integrated into the emotion of "Chen Rui". The mood that had been calmed down on purpose suddenly throbbed uncontrollably, the beating of the heart rapidly accelerated, and he stayed in place for a while.
The person who could only be seen in countless soul dreams finally appeared in front of him.
The woman turned her head slowly, just in time to see him.
The golden-brown hair is casually scattered on the shoulders, and the tight white robe with blue edges sets off the mature and graceful figure. The face is covered with a veil, covering the face, only the pair of blue eyes, which looks deep and graceful. beauty.
The moment he saw Chen Rui, the woman's body suddenly trembled, and at the same time, Chen Rui felt that his vision began to blur quickly.
Slowly blurring, then gradually clear.
At the same time, there are also those beautiful blue eyes that are as beautiful as the ocean, flashing with crystal tears.
"Little Arthur...is that really you?" The familiar voice was hoarse with excitement, but more of an unbelievable surprise.
Chen Rui blinked hard, took a deep breath, and stepped forward.
"Teacher." It was almost without hesitation, and naturally, "I'm back."
As soon as the words fell, she was already tightly embraced by the woman, unaware of the plump and seductive touch, but completely melted into that kind and warm tolerance.
At this moment, he is not only Chen Rui, but also Arthur, the real Arthur. (To be continued..)
