Chapter 1453 The Devil Sean, While Shopping with the Princess, Meets Fan Xian

Zhu Ge and others didn't know Zhou Chen's purpose of coming here, and they were very surprised to see them going to the dungeon.

"Shadow can just follow me. I don't need you to accompany me anymore. You all can go and do your own business."

Chen Pingping waved Zhu Ge and others to leave. Everyone did not dare to disobey Chen Pingping's order and dispersed.

When they walked into the prison of the Inspection Institute, Chen Pingping and Shadow were the only ones left.

After entering the dungeon, Chen Pingping specifically explained to Zhou Chen: "Shaun's identity is extraordinary after all. The fewer people who know about it, the better."

Then he looked at Zhuang Mohan who was behind Zhou Chen: "Mr. Zhuang, there is no one else here, so there is no need to cover up."

Zhuang Mohan pulled down the hood that covered his head and face, glanced at Chen Pingping, and said politely: "I'm sorry, Dean Chen."

Chen Pingping said: "Mr. Zhuang, you're welcome. I also do it for the sake of Duke Zhen. Duke Zhen, Mr. Zhuang, please come."

Under the leadership of the shadow, the four people came to the deepest part of the dungeon. Before entering the cell, they saw several thick iron chains outside the cell connecting the inside of the cell.

Chen Pingping smiled and explained: "There is no way, Sean's strength is amazing. Only in this way can people feel at ease. Shadow, go and open the door."

Shadow was very obedient and immediately went over to open the door of Sean's cell. This cell door had not been opened for an unknown period of time. When it was opened, it made a harsh friction sound. This cell door was also made of iron. of.

Four people walked into the cell one after another. Sean had a reputation for being vicious, but none of the four people present were afraid of him.

Sean had already heard someone coming over, and there was such a loud noise when the door was opened just now. When he saw someone coming in, he slowly turned his head.

His limbs and neck were shackled with iron rings and chains, and his bones on both sides were also pierced by iron chains. The iron chains all over his body made it difficult and painful for him to move.

When he turned his head, he saw the four people coming in, their faces covered with dirt, and their eyes suddenly showed astonishment.

Although he was controlled and could not exert even half of his strength, as a former ninth-grade master who had been imprisoned for twenty years, his hearing had already been developed.

He obviously only heard two different footsteps and the sound of wheels. Logically speaking, there should be three people, but how could it be four people?

Has your hearing deteriorated?

This thought flashed through his mind. After seeing the person clearly, his eyes suddenly changed again. Even Chen Pingping ignored it and stared at Zhuang Mohan.

"Zhuang Mohan? Why are you here?"

Zhuang Mohan looked at Sean's miserable condition, his eyes full of unbearability: "We haven't seen each other for more than 20 years. It's great to see you still alive."

Sean snorted coldly: "Don't be hypocritical. Others don't know you, but I don't know you. Why are you here? Are you here to save me?"

Zhuang Mohan didn't say anything, but Chen Pingping said with a smile: "Sean, you really guessed it right. Mr. Zhuang is indeed here to save you. In the battle between Qingguo and your Northern Qi, Northern Qi was defeated, and Northern Qi wanted to replace you." Go to the capital, so Mr. Zhuang is here. Next, Qingguo and Beiqi will negotiate, but I think there is no hope for you to get out of here. We Daqing will not agree to your request from Beiqi. "

Sean said coldly: "Of course you, Chen Pingping, don't dare to let me go, so don't say such useless nonsense, Zhuang Mohan, you can actually persuade Chen Pingping to bring you here, you won't promise any benefits, right? If so, you're really stupid."

"Ahem."

Zhou Chen coughed lightly and said, "The air in this place is very bad. Dean Chen, please help him temporarily open the shackles. It's very hard for him to talk like this."

Chen Pingping nodded slightly and told Shadow: "Listen to the Duke of Zhen."

Shadow didn't say anything, and walked straight over to open Sean's shackles without any delay.

"What do you mean?"

Sean was stunned. What was the situation? He was so well-spoken. Why did he have to unshackle him? But then, anger burst into his chest.

"Chen Pingping, if you dare to look down on me, aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"

Shadow snorted coldly: "Sean, let alone your current state, even if you return to your peak, don't even think about killing someone in front of the Grand Master."

This is the confidence he has without hesitation. The Grandmaster is standing here. Not to mention one Sean, ten Seans are not enough to fight him.

Sean watched the shadow unlock his shackles and asked coldly: "Grandmaster? What do you mean? Are you a grandmaster?"

The tone was full of disdain. He still knew the shadow next to Chen Pingping. If he were at his peak, how could the shadow be so arrogant in front of him.

Chen Pingping pointed at Zhou Chen with a smile and introduced to Sean: "Sean, let me introduce to you. This is the Duke of Daqing, the fifth grandmaster in the world, and the third in our Qing Kingdom. Grand Master, Zhou Chen.”

Sean's eyes suddenly stared at Zhou Chen, and then he laughed sarcastically.

"Hahaha... Chen Pingping, you have imprisoned me for twenty years, and I haven't gone crazy yet, so you have gone crazy? This kid's hair doesn't even look like he's grown yet. Grandmaster, he deserves..."

The following words could no longer be uttered, because he found that he could not move. It was as if an invisible hand was holding his neck, making him unable to make a sound or move. Although the shackles on his body were released, but now But only one pair of eyes can move.

Chen Pingping sighed softly: "Look, I told you the truth. If you don't believe it, you still want to provoke the grand master. I don't have the courage like you to scold you in front of the grand master."

Zhou Chen tilted his head, rolled his eyes, and said, "Dean Chen, I suddenly feel a little unhappy. We are all standing, and you are the only one sitting. It's not fair."

"I want to stand, but I can't. If you want to sit, I'll ask Yingzi to bring you a chair?"

"Forget it, it's too troublesome."

Watching Zhou Chen and Chen Pingping teasing each other as if no one was around, Xiao En's eyes rolled, but he could do nothing.

Chen Pingping said, "Let him go, just teach him a lesson, don't suffocate him to death, it will be hard for you and Mr. Zhuang to explain."

Zhou Chen then put away his true energy, and the next moment, Xiao En gasped for air and looked at Zhou Chen with shock.

Although he no longer had the strength of the ninth rank, his eyesight was still there. Zhou Chen stood there, without any movement, and controlled him. This is not something that ordinary warriors can do. Even the ninth rank can hardly be so calm.

Grandmaster!

But this is too ridiculous. The young man in front of him looks no more than twenty years old. No matter from which point of view, he doesn't look like a grandmaster.

But whether it is Chen Pingping, Shadow, or even his brother Zhuang Mohan, no one refuted it, which is undoubtedly confirmed.

Is such a young grandmaster crazy? He has been locked up for twenty years. Is the outside world so crazy?

Zhou Chen asked Zhuang Mohan: "Mr. Zhuang, do you need us to step aside?"

Zhuang Mohan shook his head and said: "No, if possible, can you give us some wine and food?"

Zhou Chen looked at Chen Pingping, and Chen Pingping nodded to Shadow again.

"Wait a minute."

Shadow quickly brought some wine and food and handed it to Zhuang Mohan, and Zhuang Mohan came to Sean.

Chen Pingping said to Zhou Chen: "Give them some time, let's go out and talk?"

"Okay."

"I'll go out and talk with the Duke of Zhenguo, you stay here and watch."

Shadow nodded: "No problem."

Zhou Chen walked behind Chen Pingping and put his hands on the wheelchair.

"I am so lucky to have a grandmaster push my wheelchair. Sorry to bother you, Duke Zhenguo."

Zhou Chen just smiled calmly and pushed Chen Pingping out of the cell.

Sean looked at Zhuang Mohan and asked, "He is really a grandmaster. You have a relationship with him. Did he help you get here?"

After the shock just now, he quickly guessed the reason.

Although Zhuang Mohan is very famous, he is not face-saving enough to make Chen Pingping compromise. Only the grandmaster just now can do it.

Zhuang Mohan poured him a glass of wine: "You should take care of yourself. This time, you should be able to leave here and go home."

Zhou Chen pushed Chen Pingping out of the cell, and Chen Pingping suddenly asked: "How much silver does Fan Xian still owe you?"

Zhou Chen said: "Seventy thousand taels, what, is Dean Chen going to help him pay it back?"

Chen Pingping laughed and said: "I would like to, but he probably won't be willing. Although this child is not very old, he is very opinionated. I also want to thank you for saving Teng Zijing, otherwise the child would not know how sad he would be."

"You are so good to him. If people don't know the truth, they will probably think you are his father. I don't think his biological father is as good to him as you."

Zhou Chen's "unintentional" words made Chen Pingping's face change slightly. He is one of the few people who know Fan Xian's true life experience, but he doesn't think Zhou Chen also knows Fan Xian's life experience. After all, Zhou Chen is only one or two years older than Fan Xian, and it is impossible for him to know the secrets of many years ago.

"I like Fan Xian very much, and even want him to take my place in the future, but I don't know if he is willing to do so."

"Who knows? In such a world, no one can be self-sufficient. Either you have power or you have strength. For those who have nothing, their fate can only be controlled by others."

"What the Duke of Zhenguo said is true, but not everyone can have enough freedom, so power is the goal pursued by most people."

Fan Xian has a good talent for martial arts, but Chen Pingping did not expect Fan Xian to break through to the Grandmaster level. Compared with such an illusory thing as breaking through the Grandmaster level, it is more realistic to become a powerful official with his feet on the ground. With his escort and Fan Xian's life experience, he thinks there is still a great chance.

Zhou Chen and Chen Pingping did not wait outside for long. About half a minute later, Shadow and Zhuang Mohan came out.

"Sean is very cooperative and did not resist." Shadow reported behind Chen Pingping.

Chen Pingping smiled indifferently. Sean was arrogant and irritable, but he still had to obey the Grandmaster.

Zhou Chen took Zhuang Mohan, who had covered himself again, and left the Inspection Institute.

In the carriage, Zhuang Mohan thanked Zhou Chen, who just smiled.

"Mr. Zhuang, we don't need these polite words for our relationship."

"It should be. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to see him again."

Zhuang Mohan was very satisfied to see his brother again at the end of his life, and even have a chance to save him.

Zhou Chen saw Zhuang Mohan's expression and suddenly said, "Mr. Zhuang, I know that you came to Qing Kingdom this time not only to see Sean, but also to save him. If you have any plans, I still need to persuade you not to mess around, at least don't do anything against your will. I still know a little about the emperor of Qing Kingdom. Even if you do nothing, he will let Sean go back to Northern Qi."

He knew that the old man had a stubborn personality. If he didn't persuade him, Zhuang Mohan would definitely be controlled by the princess.

"But I heard that you don't have a good relationship with Emperor Qing?"

"My relationship with him is indeed not good. He wants to control me, but you also know who I am. It is impossible for me to be controlled by others. How can an emperor with supreme imperial power have a good relationship with me? But I am telling the truth. Sean has something that Emperor Qing wants, so he will let Sean go. Mr. Zhuang, you don't need to do anything extra."

"Especially with Princess Li Yunrui, don't believe her words."

Zhuang Mohan's face changed slightly. He never thought that Zhou Chen would even guess this.

"Some things are also beyond one's control. I will seriously consider your words, but after all, you are a Qing countryman. I know you consider me, but you also have your own position. There is no need to do so much for me."

Zhou Chen sighed. The old man is indeed very stubborn, but Zhuang Mohan now represents Northern Qi. Zhuang Mohan will believe his words, but for Northern Qi, he is a Qing countryman after all, and he cannot influence Northern Qi's decision.

At this point, he couldn't persuade her any more and could only give up, but he had made a decision. No matter what, he would still save Zhuang Mohan.

Saving Zhuang Mohan was his own selfish desire. It was for their friendship and because he admired such a literary master. Such a person should not become a victim of conspiracy.

After sending Zhuang Mohan back to his residence, Zhou Chen immediately returned to the mansion and found Zhan Pianpian who was playing with Sang Wen.

Hearing Zhou Chen say that he would take them out to play, Zhan Pianpian smiled and replied happily: "Okay, okay."

Sang Wen shook his head slightly: "Sir, you take the princess with you. I've been feeling a little unwell these days and it's not convenient for me to walk."

"Ah, aren't you going with us? Let's go together. It's more lively with more people."

When Zhan Pianpian heard that Sang Wen said he would not go, he immediately persuaded Sang Wen kindly, wanting Sang Wen to go with him.

But Sang Wen still used her physical discomfort as an excuse and shook her head at Zhou Chen. Zhou Chen understood what she meant and wanted him to spend more time with Zhan Pianpian.

Zhou Chen accepted Sang Wen's kindness. This girl was a little too self-deprecating and even tried to please Zhan Pianpian. He knew that this was caused by the environment Sang Wen had been in.

"Sang Wen is not feeling well, so let her rest in the mansion. I will accompany you to visit Kyoto. You have been here for two days and you haven't had a good visit yet."

"Well, okay."

Zhan Pianpian is a girl whose sadness comes and goes quickly. She will soon be happy. Let Sang Wen have a good rest and bring her delicious food when she comes back.

So Zhou Chen took Zhan Pianpian on the carriage and went to the more prosperous streets of Kyoto first, because the first request Zhan Pianpian made was to take her to eat delicious food first.

When she was with others, she couldn't let go, but when she was with Zhou Chen, she never suppressed her needs and told Zhou Chen everything she wanted.

In her heart, Zhou Chen is the person who dotes on her the most in the world. In front of Zhou Chen, she doesn't need to mention the royal family of Daqi all the time. She is the most free and unrestrained.

The time of playing passed the fastest. Zhou Chen and Zhan Pianpian had already got off the carriage. Originally, Zhou Chen took Zhan Pianpian for a stroll, but soon it became Zhan Pianpian pulling Zhou Chen for a stroll.

Zhan Pianpian, dressed in red, was like a happy butterfly, pulling Zhou Chen to fly non-stop.

"Zhou Chen, Zhou Chen, look at this, there is also one in Shangjing City, but it is a little different from here in Kyoto."

Zhan Pianpian pulled Zhou Chen to a stall selling toys, pointed at the items on the stall, and chattered with Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen smiled and watched her choose toys, his face full of pity. Suddenly, he looked ahead and saw a few people he knew walking slowly not far ahead.

He saw people, and the other party also saw him, so Fan Xian immediately brought Teng Zijing, Wang Qinian, Fan Ruoruo and Fan Sizhe over.

Fan Xian and his companions were about to salute, but Zhou Chen waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite outside."

Fan Xian stopped at this point, but Teng Zijing and Wang Qinian still saluted respectfully, but they did not call him the Duke of Zhenguo, but called him Your Excellency.

Teng Zijing saluted Zhou Chen very solemnly: "My Excellency, thank you for saving me. I have never had the chance to thank you."

"No need to thank me. I also received money. This is just a transaction. Fan Xian, where are you going?"

Fan Xian answered truthfully: "Fan Sizhe and I opened a bookstore. We are going to find a restaurant to sit down and talk while eating. If your Excellency is free, why not come with us?"

Zhou Chen did not answer immediately, but looked at Zhan Pianpian who had already chosen the things, and asked softly: "Have you chosen? Are you hungry? Do you want to take a rest first, eat something, and then go shopping?"

After walking for an hour, he was indeed a little tired, so Zhan Pianpian nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice.

"Okay, let's go eat. After dinner we can go shopping. Are they all your friends?"

After saying that, she looked at Fan Xian and the other four with curiosity.
