Chapter 34 Replacement
Chu Zhiyuan cupped his fists and smiled.
When dealing with Chu Zhiyao's blunt words, it's best to downplay them.
Chu Mingxuan waved his hand and said: "Okay, the fourth child has already gone to the Ministry of Etiquette, we can't be transferred halfway... How long will you stay back this time, the third child?"
He asked everyone to take a seat as he spoke.
The delicacies were served one after another, all delicious and delicious, making people salivate at the sight. The jar of medicinal wine released an aroma as soon as it was opened, and the aroma of the wine was mixed with a strange medicinal aroma.
The scent of this medicine makes me feel refreshed.
Chu Zhiyuan smiled.
This medicinal wine is of great help to the Dragon Transformation Technique and saves a lot of hard work.
"This time... I'm afraid I have to rest for a while," Chu Zhiyao slammed the table: "Dazhen is going to do it for real this time!"
"Third brother, Dazhen really wants to marry us?" Chu Zhichuan asked with a frown.
"Yeah."
Chu Mingxuan was puzzled: "How could my father agree?"
"Let's join forces to deal with Dameng first. The new emperor in Dameng has just ascended the throne and is very ambitious. Together with Dazhen, we can deal with Dameng!"
"Aren't you afraid of Dazhen cheating?"
"Of course Dazhen must show sincerity."
"What sincerity?"
"Marriage!"
"Who is marrying whom? We can't marry the princess!"
"It depends on each person's abilities..."
"What ability?"
"Hard to say."
……
Chu Zhiyuan said: "Third brother, you came back early. Do you have some errands?"
Chu Zhiyao looked very reluctant, his face gloomy: "I guess the Dazhen envoy will propose a competition, and there will be princes and princes in their envoy."
"Well... if there is a competition, it must be equal. The prince must compete with the prince." Chu Mingxuan knew this most basic rule, the principle of equality between countries.
If the crown prince in the Dazhen mission proposes competition and discussion, then of course Dajing will also send the crown prince.
Chu Zhiyao sneered and said: "There is a prince in Dazhen who is a martial arts wizard, Cheng Tianfeng. He entered Xiantian at the age of eighteen."
"He became a congenital at the age of eighteen? How old is he now?"
"Twenty-two." Chu Zhiyao said slowly: "Four years have passed, who knows which level he has reached!"
"You haven't reached Grandmaster yet?" Chu Zhiting said.
Chu Zhiyao frowned and shook his head: "If you really became a grandmaster at the age of twenty-two, your fame would have been spread all over the world. You can't hold back and say it."
Becoming a Grandmaster at the age of twenty-two is an unprecedented achievement. How could such a rumor be ignored?
This will greatly enhance the prestige of the entire Dazhen royal family. It will unite the morale of the military and the people, and the benefits are endless.
"Then, third brother, you should practice hard and recharge your batteries," Chu Mingxuan said, "give us a chance to stand up for the great scene!"
They understood the purpose of Chu Zhiyao's return.
Among the princes of Dajing, there are only three innates now. Chu Zhiyao is the first to enter the innate and has experienced in the military. He is stronger than the sixth prince, Chu Zhihua, so naturally he is required to meet the challenge of the prince of Dazhen.
Chu Zhiyao looked at Chu Zhiyuan: "Fourth brother, you can take my place in the battle! ... I will inform the Ming Emperor's grandfather to replace him."
"Ah?... You can't do that!" Chu Zhiyuan looked surprised and waved his hands hurriedly.
"Why can't you do it?!" Chu Zhiyao snorted: "You are stronger than me, so you are naturally more qualified to fight!"
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head: "I am not as experienced in military battles as my third brother. I lack experience and am too young to be able to handle big tasks."
"You are better than me, that's enough!" Chu Zhiyao snorted.
Chu Zhiyuan still shook his head.
Chu Zhiyao frowned and lowered his face: "Don't you want to fight for our Da Jingchao's reputation?"
Chu Zhiyuan said: "I'm afraid that my inexperience will cause us to lose face."
Chu Zhiyao stared at him closely and said in a deep voice: "If you can really win, it will be a great achievement."
"Third brother, how big is this skill?" Chu Zhiting asked curiously.
The three of them never interrupted.
Privately, I feel that the best candidate is indeed Chu Zhiyuan. Chu Zhiyuan's combat prowess far exceeds his mental state.
But saying these words directly hurt Chu Zhiyao’s face too much.
……
"At least it's a seventh-grade skill, right?" Chu Mingxuan looked at Chu Zhiyao: "Isn't it, the third child?"
Chu Zhiyao nodded slowly: "Yes, at least seventh grade."
Chu Zhiting and Chu Zhichuan's eyes suddenly lit up.
The seventh-grade gong is out of reach for them. Not to mention the acquired realm, even the innate realm can hardly achieve the seventh-grade gong.
Eighth-level skills are already the limit for innate masters.
Seventh-level skills can not only be exchanged for more powerful elixirs and magical weapons, but more importantly, they can be promoted.
The higher the position, the more opportunities you have to get credit, and the more credit you can get.
Chu Zhiyuan just shook his head, but he was determined in his heart.
Since he has shown his crushing strength, this candidate is destined to be his, and he and Chu Zhiyao have no choice but to decide.
This thing is high-yield and high-risk.
Then Cheng Tianfeng stepped into Xiantian four years ago. What if he was a genius like himself, or even better than himself?
Maybe now they are all innately perfect.
Once defeated, Da Jing will lose face and he will be criticized by thousands of people. But it doesn't matter to myself.
Prince Qing's Mansion has made a slight improvement, and even if it is defeated, it can at most recover as before. The loss is not that big. With its own super senses and qualifications, it can still get back up after all.
If you win, you will get the seventh level of gong.
A seventh-level skill can be exchanged for at least dozens of marrow-cleansing pills, which is of great help to cultivation.
It can also gain huge reputation, which will greatly improve the status of Prince Qing's Mansion.
What's more, during the period before the competition, there is the possibility of receiving huge support.
The emperor can't just ignore everything and use any means to improve his own cultivation in order to achieve the majesty of the great scene, right?
This is related to Da Jing's face and even Da Jing's interests.
So this is an extremely rare opportunity.
This opportunity is almost within grasp.
So why not put on a high profile?
Chu Mingxuan coughed twice and said in a deep voice: "If Cheng Tianfeng is so powerful, it's better for you, fourth brother, to do it. This is not a matter of humility."
The Great Avalanche Sword Technique is invincible in the innate realm, no one can stop it, it is too fast.
If others had mastered the Great Avalanche Sword Art, they could only use one sword, but he could strike one sword after another, treating the Great Avalanche Sword Art as an ordinary sword art.
Who can stop this?
Unless it's faster than him.
Even the masters may not be as fast as him in terms of sword speed.
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head: "Third brother has come all the way back..."
Chu Zhiyao hummed: "It doesn't matter if I work hard or not, the key is to win and bring glory to our Da Jing Dynasty royal family."
Chu Zhiyuan still smiled and shook his head.
Chu Zhiyao said: "I am a backup. If there is another prince, I will not be too late to challenge him. In short, Dazhen will definitely take the opportunity to attack in order to gain an advantage in the negotiation... But this is also risky. If If you lose, you will be a sinner!”
Chu Zhiyuan still shook his head.
"Fourth brother, are you afraid? Are you afraid of losing face and losing face?" Chu Zhiyao suddenly sneered.
"...Alas! If that's the case, then I'll give it a try." Chu Zhiyuan looked at Chu Mingxuan and shook his head: "Uncle Eighteen, I shouldn't have come tonight."
Chu Mingxuan chuckled sheepishly: "You're fine, Fourth Brother!"
Chu Zhiyao's sneer turned into a smile, and he slapped Chu Zhiyuan hard on the shoulder: "This is my son of the Chu family!"
He then solemnly said: "Be prepared, the Dazhen envoy will arrive in the next few days."
Chu Zhiyuan nodded slowly.
Chu Mingxuan picked up the wine glass and greeted: "Come on, let's first wish the fourth son a great victory, a great victory over the crown prince of Dazhen, and the majesty of my great scene!"
"Yes, a big victory!"
Everyone raised their glasses and drank.
Then we started eating food and chatting.
Chu Zhiting inquired about matters in the army.
He really wanted to go to the army, but he couldn't go there because of his father, so he was very eager and curious about the army.
Chu Zhichuan was also curious about the situation in the army.
Chu Zhiyao asked where the two of them were going. When he heard that they were going to Zhenwu Division, he shook his head: "Listen to my advice, don't go to Zhenwu Division, just go to the army!"
The two hesitated.
He looked at Chu Zhiting: "Lao Jiu, just don't go under Uncle Ten."
"Father doesn't allow it." Chu Zhiting was helpless.
"...There is really nothing we can do about it." Chu Zhiyao lamented: "It is too easy to achieve meritorious service in the military, especially at the border. A small fight every three days, a big fight every ten days, non-stop fighting."
Chu Zhiyuan listened thoughtfully.
Chu Zhiyao said: "I have established ninth-grade merit ten times. How could it be possible if I were elsewhere? ... How about you, fourth brother, in the Ministry of Rites?"
Chu Zhiyuan nodded: "The Ministry of Rites is indeed the Qingshui Yamen, and there is no chance of meritorious service."
"The Zhenwu Division also has many opportunities to make meritorious deeds." Chu Zhichuan said: "Third brother, we have inquired about it, and the Zhenwu Division also fights all day long."
"That's much more dangerous than being in the army." Chu Zhiyao said: "In the army, you are at least a guerrilla general, and you don't have to be at the forefront."
Chu Zhichuan blinked, but he didn't expect these words to come from Chu Zhiyao's mouth, and felt it was very strange.
I originally thought that Chu Zhiyao was taking the lead, but I didn't expect that he was hiding behind to receive the credit.
Chu Zhiyao saw what he was thinking and hummed: "Don't think that a guerrilla general does nothing and only takes credit. He has to command the army. If a command error leads to the loss of soldiers, he will be beaten or even lose his head."
Chu Zhiting hurriedly agreed: "Yes, it is difficult to be a general. If a command error leads to the death and injury of subordinates, not only will you be punished, but you will also be in pain and never be at peace."
I often hear my father say that kindness cannot lead an army, and that a person who is too soft-hearted becomes a general. When he wakes up from a dream at midnight, he often bursts into tears and even has trouble sleeping.
When I think of those soldiers who wholeheartedly supported and believed in me, but lost their lives because of my mistakes, I will feel guilty and painful, and I will never be able to let it go for the rest of my life.
So those who are not ruthless enough should not join the military.
As for his weak temperament, he is most unsuitable for the army.
Therefore, he was not allowed to join the army to avoid suspicion, but it was also inconsistent with his nature. The most suitable place was the Zhenwu Division.
Subjugate demons and eliminate demons, be confident and confident, and best suit your own nature.
Once it matches your nature, it will also help with cultivation.
It goes against nature. No matter how many achievements you make in the military, no matter how many miraculous elixirs you have, it will be difficult to achieve it. It is almost impossible to surpass the master, let alone the grand master.
Chu Zhiyuan brought the topic back to Cheng Tianfeng, trying to understand the reality of Cheng Tianfeng as much as possible.
