Chapter 937: Not For You
Even though it felt good to snatch the horse carriage, it wasn’t pleasant for the public to know about it.
Dantai Chen clenched his teeth.
Seeing that he didn’t say a word, Chu Liuyue blinked and teased in a seemingly smiling manner. “What? Emperor Huai Ren, are you not willing to do me this small favor?”
Dantai Chen could only say, “Why wouldn’t I be willing? I can still help you with this simple matter, but I’m not feeling very well today. Hence, I need to take a rain check to see if I’ll be going into the palace.”
At the side, Yin Hao hurriedly said, “Emperor Huai Ren, you must be tired from the journey, right? Why don’t I bring you to your lodging first?”
With this sentence, Dantai Chen looked better as he nodded and boarded the carriage.
The curtain fell and blocked Chu Liuyue and the rest’s vision.
Dantai Chen then heaved a sigh of relief as he leaned against the carriage and knitted his brows in frustration. This Shangguan Yue… doesn’t seem as easy to handle as she looks… After these two encounters, our two parties have formed a grudge. Today, she made an issue out of the horse carriage. In the future, she might do something else. I should be more guarded!
After Dantai Chen got onto the horse carriage, Dantai Ruoli and the rest gradually boarded the ones at the back.
“Let’s go!” hollered Yin Hao as the horses began going toward the city.
But no matter how one looked at it, they looked like they were escaping from humiliation.
…
Wen Fan glanced at Chu Liuyue strangely. Even though the Tianling Dynasty’s new emperor looks like she’s in her teens… She has her own methods and mindset! Normal people simply aren’t capable of silently dragging the sly old fox—Dantai Chen—down to a stage where he couldn’t say anything in front of so many people.
His impression of Chu Liuyue changed greatly, and his attitude was even more polite as he wanted to apologize. “This is all because I’m useless…”
“It’s not your fault.” Chu Liuyue glanced at the distant horse carriage as she smiled slightly. “They just wanted to show me who’s boss.”
Without Dantai Chen allowing it, a person like Yin Hao wouldn’t openly steal my things no matter how arrogant he was.
“It’s a pity I don’t buy that.”
This time, I retorted a little. If Dantai Chen knows what is best and toes the line, I will also let the matter rest. But if the other party is relentless… By that time, they won’t be able to blame me for being harsh!
“Alright, let’s go too,” said Chu Liuyue as she boarded the horse carriage.
Elder Chen Ke and the rest then boarded the carriages behind respectively.
Chu Liuyue then pushed apart the curtain and glanced at Wen Fan. “Oh, right. Since you’re in charge of all our lodgings while we’re in Lin Zhou, then I have a request.”
Wen Fan instinctively straightened his back and respectfully said, “Please let me know. I’ll definitely do my best!”
Chu Liuyue’s red lips curled up slightly. “It’s not anything difficult, but if the same thing happens again, you don’t have to care about anything and just fight back as much as you want! I’ll bear all the consequences!”
I came to Lin Zhou and entered the lion’s den to save my father, not to get bullied!
Wen Fan was shocked by the coldness in the other party’s eyes, and it was as if he took a calming pill as he determinedly said, “Yes!”
Chu Liuyue smiled and looked up slightly to glance at the tall city gate. “Let’s go!”
…
Passing the city gate, the horses continued on.
Dantai Chen sat in the horse carriage and closed his eyes to think.
Gradually, all sorts of noises could be heard from the surroundings, sounding very crowded. They should’ve entered the bustling streets, but these sounds made Dantai Chen even more frustrated and upset.
He originally wanted to stay in the horse carriage to relax and rest, but the previous scene kept flashing across his mind. I actually lost to a mere Shangguan Yue… I feel wronged no matter how much I think about it! Originally, I just wanted to teach them a lesson to let them know who they could offend and who they couldn’t offend. However, I didn’t expect this Shangguan Yue to expand on this topic! Before I even boarded the horse carriage, she had already thought of how she was going to complain about me to the Emperor of Beiming in front of the public! If I had known about this earlier, I wouldn’t have snatched this horse carriage! I caused trouble for myself for nothing!
At this point, the horse carriage finally stopped.
Yin Hao’s voice came from outside. “Your Majesty, we’re here. You can get off.”
Dantai Chen shook his head and threw away all his messy thoughts as he pushed the curtains away and got off the horse carriage.
After standing still, he looked up.
When he clearly saw the scene, surprise flashed across his eyes. “This is…”
“Hehe. Your Highness, the Crown Prince specifically made the order to prepare this as your housing!” Yin Hao was eager to please him. “We prepared four villas in the palace this time, and each dynasty will live in one. However, this is the biggest and most extravagant one! In the beginning, quite a few ancestors lived in this place before—not to mention that the Crown Prince personally commanded people to renovate this place a few years ago! This lodging can be said to be the best!”
When Dantai Chen saw the elegant and extraordinary entrance, he already knew that this villa was special. Now that he heard this, he couldn’t conceal his excitement. “Did… the Crown Prince specifically leave this place for me?”
“Of course!” Yin Hao wanted to flatter him. If this wasn’t specifically left for them, the ones who came earlier would’ve directly entered! Isn’t it clearly left for the Taiyu Dynasty? The other two dynasties in front are only stronger and not weaker than them. It’s a pity I couldn’t win against the other two and could only fight with Wen Fan in the end. However, I didn’t expect that the Crown Prince would specifically leave this place for them! I really am too fortunate!
Even though he didn’t know why the Crown Prince did this, Yin Hao was still elated. As long as I can serve them well, I will have a bright future ahead of me!
“Please, go ahead—” said Yin Hao eagerly.
Dantai Chen looked calm on the surface, but his lips that curved up slightly and his expectant gaze had already exposed his excitement and happiness regarding this matter.
Normally speaking, as an emperor, he wouldn’t be too interested in places that other emperors had stayed in before. But this place was different.
This was the villa that the Beiming Dynasty’s emperors had stayed in before!
To him, this was undoubtedly an invisible honor. To be able to live in this place, he would definitely have face in front of all the other dynasties.
He tidied his clothes and walked forward confidently.
But the moment he reached the door, he was stopped.
Tsing!
Two longswords crossed each other.
The guard in charge coldly said, “Sorry, this place is not reserved for you.”
