Chapter 1773 The Land of 4 Continents!
Soon, led by the guards, Chen Changsheng and Xing Piaopiao stepped into the Hundred Flowers Garden together.
Looking at Tie Yunpeng sitting high in the seat, Xing Piaopiao felt guilty, which was rare for her.
Because this person is his former boss.
At the same time, the emperor sitting high on the dragon throne was also looking at Chen Changsheng, the mysterious master.
The situation of single-handedly destroying the village and the reappearance of a person who had disappeared for 100,000 years, all combined together.
The person in front of him looked like someone from outside the Green Forest Era.
"What's so special about your treasure that you dare to claim it won't sell for a fortune?"
The emperor spoke first, and Chen Changsheng bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I have a treasure that is rare in the world. It can not only protect the foundation of the Song Dynasty for eternity, but also distinguish between loyalty and treachery."
Hearing this, Emperor Song smiled.
"You said you could protect the Song Dynasty's eternal foundation, but the human heart is unpredictable. How can you distinguish between loyalty and treachery?"
"How about you demonstrate it for me yourself?"
Facing the Song Emperor's request, Chen Changsheng smiled faintly and said, "Your Majesty, this treasure is only available to those who are destined to receive it."
"If someone without destiny opens this box, all that will be found inside will be an ordinary stone."
"When the destined person opens this box, it will contain a rare treasure."
"Oh?"
"That's a novel idea. Who do you think is the destined one among all of you here?"
"The destined person is naturally His Majesty!"
As he spoke, Chen Changsheng took the box from Xing Piaopiao and raised it high above his head.
Seeing this, the guard beside him also handed the box in Chen Changsheng's hand to Emperor Song.
Looking at the ordinary box that had no divine power fluctuations, Emperor Song said lightly.
"You still have room to regret before the box is opened."
"If the box is opened and it doesn't contain a rare treasure, you will be guilty of deceiving the emperor."
Emperor Song looked directly at Chen Changsheng, but Chen Changsheng smiled faintly and said.
“Rare treasures may be priceless, but people are valuable.”
"If no one can afford this treasure of mine, then isn't it worthless?"
"From what you said, you have already set a price for this treasure?"
"Your Majesty is the destined one. This treasure naturally belongs to Your Majesty. The price I set is just a suggestion."
"So how much do you think he's worth?"
"The Land of Four Continents!"
Chen Changsheng's voice echoed in everyone's ears, and everyone's heart was in their throat.
Half a month ago, Chen Changsheng destroyed the village single-handedly.
Almost all the high-ranking officials of the Song Dynasty knew that the Nine Caves and Eighteen Villages were supported by the Duke of Zhenguo behind the scenes.
When Chen Changsheng, the dragon that crossed the river, attacked the Nine Caves and Eighteen Villages, it was naturally equivalent to attacking the Duke of Zhenguo.
Now he suddenly mentioned such an outrageous price, which clearly showed his true intentions.
"Crack!"
The box was opened, and a pebble lay quietly inside.
Reaching out and picking up the extremely ordinary pebble, Emperor Song said calmly, "Duke Zhenguo, do you think this stone looks like a rare treasure?"
In response to Emperor Song's question, Tie Yunpeng bowed and said, "Whatever your majesty says it is, it is what it is."
"So do you think this thing is really worth four continents?"
Emperor Song spoke again, and Tie Yunpeng knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the rare treasure in your hand is exactly what I need."
"I am willing to exchange the four continents for the rare treasure in your Majesty's hands!"
Looking at Tie Yunpeng kneeling on the ground, Emperor Song hurried forward to support him and said, "Duke Zhenguo, please get up quickly. This thing was originally meant for you."
"Now you are offering the four continents in exchange. How will the people of the world view me?"
"Your Majesty, my fiefdom has been plagued by banditry for many years and has remained unresolved."
"I beg Your Majesty to send a capable person to help me govern my fiefdom. I will be grateful!"
Hearing this, Emperor Song stopped supporting Tie Yunpeng's hand and said seriously, "Duke Zhenguo's words are reasonable. The people are the first priority in all world affairs."
"The bandit rebellion must indeed be dealt with as soon as possible."
"However, the Four Continents are of great importance, and the management personnel will wait for me to think it over carefully."
"Let's end today's banquet here."
After saying that, Emperor Song turned around and left, leaving Tie Yunpeng kneeling alone.
Emperor Song was the first to leave, and the civil and military officials around him also left one after another.
At this time, Tie Yunpeng, who was kneeling on the ground, slowly stood up.
Facing Tie Yunpeng's cold gaze, Xing Piaopiao subconsciously wanted to dodge, but Chen Changsheng grabbed her neck and she was unable to retreat.
"Are you the one who single-handedly destroyed the village?"
Tie Yunpeng looked directly at Chen Changsheng.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng smiled faintly and said, "I am acting on behalf of Heaven. You don't need to thank me, Duke Zhenguo."
"It's a good thing to act on behalf of heaven, but if I remember correctly, she should be the bandit leader of Jiudong Shibazhai."
"I know. She was one before, but now that I'm protecting her, she's not a bandit anymore."
"Very good. I hope you can continue to do justice like this!"
After saying that, Tie Yunpeng passed by Chen Changsheng and left the Hundred Flowers Garden directly.
"Snapped!"
As Tie Yunpeng left, Xing Piaopiao collapsed to the ground.
"Sir, you really scared me to death just now."
"He has been a ninth-grade Immortal King for a long time. How dare you provoke him like this?"
"If he wanted to kill us, we would be dead by now."
Looking at the sweaty Xing Piaopiao, Chen Changsheng said disdainfully, "Use your brain more when doing things, and also, be more courageous."
"It's embarrassing for me to get scared and pee my pants so easily."
"Sir, this is not my fault, it's mainly..."
"Shut up!"
Chen Changsheng interrupted Xing Piaopiao directly, and then said angrily: "You useless guy, if I had known earlier, I would not have brought you out this time. You just embarrassed me."
"Get dressed, we have a banquet to attend."
After saying that, Chen Changsheng ignored Xing Piaopiao and walked straight out of the Hundred Flowers Garden.
What’s even more interesting is that as soon as Chen Changsheng left the Hundred Flowers Garden, two guards came to invite him to a banquet.
......
Hundred Fruit Garden.
"Fellow Daoist, please take a seat!"
As they entered a pavilion, Emperor Song immediately stood up to greet them.
Facing the Song Emperor's enthusiasm, Chen Changsheng feigned fear and said, "Your Majesty, it's more than that. I am also terrified."
"Ugh!"
"Fellow Daoist is not a citizen of the Great Song Dynasty, so naturally you don't need to abide by the etiquette between the emperor and his subjects."
"Today, you and I are just sitting here discussing the truth. There's no need to worry about those empty formalities."
As he spoke, Emperor Song took Chen Changsheng's hand and invited him to take a seat.
Looking at the dazzling array of fresh fruits on the table, Chen Changsheng smacked his lips and said, "From the looks of it, it seems His Majesty has prepared very well!"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Song smiled complacently and said, "Daoyou, you often buy spiritual fruits along the way."
"So I guessed that you might like to eat spiritual fruits, so I ordered people to build this Hundred Fruit Garden."
"More than 70% of the spiritual fruits in the Great Song Dynasty are grown here. Fellow Daoist, you can satisfy your appetite in the future."
