RPAGF Chapter 262 Xueyang Town
Chapter 262 Xueyang Town
At this moment, both Crown Prince Shi Jian and the people of the Chen clan were confused and did not understand why the empress wanted to see them.
The only person who knew the situation at the scene was the old eunuch in front of him.
After receiving the imperial edict, the Chen clan leader smiled and said, "Eunuch Hai, I wonder why the empress suddenly summoned us?"
Eunuch Hai said in a lukewarm tone, "I don't know the specifics of the matter, but the Empress specifically emphasized that Chen Xuan from your Chen clan should also enter the palace."
As he spoke, Eunuch Hai glanced at the Chen clan members. Seeing that there were only old people here and no young people, he couldn't help but ask, "Where is Chen Xuanren? Let's call him up."
"Chen Xuan?"
For a moment, all the members of the Chen clan looked at each other in confusion.
Why would he mention wanting to meet Chen Xuan out of the blue?
"Eunuch, why does the empress want to see Chen Xuan?" the Chen clan leader asked immediately.
Eunuch Hai shook his head and said, "I don't know what the Empress is thinking. I'm just a messenger."
You are the empress's confidant, how could you not know?
Everyone knew that the old eunuch just didn't want to say it.
If it were an ordinary day, you would still give him some treasures. Once the old eunuch is happy, he will reveal some useful information.
But the prince is here today, so they can't possibly behave like an old eunuch in front of the prince, right?
When Crown Prince Shi Jian heard that the empress wanted to summon Chen Xuan, his heart sank instantly.
How could Chen Xuan, such a waste, deserve to be summoned by the empress in person?
The most important thing is, isn’t Chen Xuan at the border?
You know, he sent Lao Liao and Chen Tian to the border specifically for the purpose of capturing Chen Xuan and An Ruxue.
Did he return to the capital?
"Master Chen, go call Chen Xuan over quickly. Don't keep the Empress and the King of Zhenxi waiting for too long!"
Seeing that none of the Chen family members moved and no one seemed to be planning to call Chen Xuan, Eunuch Hai urged them on.
"This……"
The Chen clan members all looked embarrassed. "Eunuch Hai, it's not that we don't want to call you, but Chen Xuan is not in the capital at all."
"Not in the capital?"
Eunuch Hai frowned.
The empress asked him to call people over, and if no one was there, it would be his dereliction of duty!
"Yes, Eunuch Hai, I exiled Chen Xuan to the border because he stole treasures from our clan. If nothing unexpected happens, he should be in the Barbarian City at the border now."
The Chen clan leader spoke truthfully, a look of deep doubt on his face. "Eunuch Hai, Chen Xuan is just a small-time character. How could he have the ability to attract the attention of the Empress?"
"Also, you just mentioned the King of Zhenxi? Wasn't he stationed at the border? Why did he suddenly come back?"
It was strange enough that the empress summoned them suddenly.
The sudden return of King Zhenxi makes people even more curious.
Could something big have happened?
And this matter is related to Chen Xuan?
After all, if it had nothing to do with Chen Xuan, the empress would never have summoned him.
What did this guy do at the border?
"Are you sure Chen Xuan is not in the capital?"
Eunuch Hai looked doubtful. After all, according to the King of Zhenxi, Chen Xuan should have run back.
"No."
The Chen clan leader shook his head.
At this time, Eunuch Hai suddenly looked at Prince Shi Jian meaningfully.
The King of Zhenxi has fled back to the capital from the border, but Chen Xuan has not returned yet.
Could it be that he was captured by the prince's men?
Shi Jian was suddenly confused. Why was he looking at me for no reason?
You don't think I know where Chen Xuan is, do you?
"Prince, do you know where Chen Xuan is?" Eunuch Hai suddenly asked.
Shi Jian's mouth twitched, and he quickly explained, "I don't know."
Eunuch Hai suddenly smiled and said meaningfully, "I believe this, but as for whether the Empress believes it or not, I don't know."
Shi Jian suddenly felt like a pot of shit was dropped on his head.
The Chen clan leader immediately asked, "Is there any grudge between the Crown Prince and Chen Xuan of my Chen clan?"
He thought of Chen Tian and the prince's men going to the border.
"There's no grudge. I don't know him."
Shi Jian shook his head without even thinking.
However, no matter whether he explained or not, no one believed him.
"Alright, everyone, follow me to see the emperor."
Eunuch Hai was too lazy to talk any more and took them directly into the palace.
……
On the way to the Jiangnan water town, three carriages and two horses were galloping at full speed.
"Tonight, let's go to Xueyang Town to rest. I'm going to be away for one night!"
An Ruxue lifted the curtain of the carriage and suddenly said.
"You want to go back to the sect?"
Chen Xuan immediately guessed what she was thinking.
Because if you walk a little further, you will reach the Tianxue Mountains, the largest mountain range in the Daqian Dynasty.
The Snow Sword Sect was built on the top of the Tianxue Mountains.
Xueyang Town is a city under the jurisdiction of the Xuejian Sect.
Although it is called a town, it is actually very prosperous, with a constant stream of traffic and people coming and going. It is no less prosperous than the ancient cities in the wealthy areas of Jiangnan.
"It's been a while since I left the sect. The people there don't know what I've been through. I need to go back and report my safety, and also to see my master and fellow disciples."
An Ruxue said.
The court's arrest and imprisonment of her was carried out in secret and the Snow Sword Sect was not informed.
After all, the Snow Sword Sect is the number one sect in the Daqian Dynasty, and even the imperial court has to be wary of it, not to mention that this was done by Prince Shi Jian himself.
Every true disciple of the Snow Sword Sect has a soul lamp in the sect's incense hall.
As long as a person is alive, the soul lamp will always be lit.
Once a person dies, the soul lamp will go out, and the people in the sect will know that the disciple has met with an unexpected disaster.
In the entire Daqian Dynasty, apart from the imperial court, only the Snow Sword Sect has this kind of soul lamp. This is the foundation of the number one sect!
It’s not that other sects have no foundation. In fact, some sects have existed for even longer than the Snow Sword Sect, but they are unable to produce something like a soul lamp.
Because they don’t have any Martial Emperor masters!
Only a Martial Emperor master has the ability to imprint the disciple's fate on the soul lamp and light it up!
Xueyang Town.
When they arrived here, they chose an inn to stay in.
In order to reach Jiangnan as soon as possible, we have been rushing on the road these days, so no one has had much rest.
Chen Xuan, Zheng Tong, and An Ruxue didn't care. They were at a high level and strong, so they could be fine even if they didn't sleep for ten days and ten nights.
But Li Xiuning and the others couldn't handle it anymore.
Especially Lu Qiqi, Liu Yiyi and the others, who didn't know any martial arts and were weak. If Chen Xuan hadn't been giving them blood-replenishing pills, they would have gotten sick from exhaustion.
