Chapter 328 Great Xia Envoy's Chapter "Chen Qingxuan"
Chapter 328 Great Xia Envoy's Chapter "Chen Qingxuan"
Outside the city gate, inside the carriage, the waiter respectfully asked Chu Chen, "Young master, my name is Tiger Valley Warrior. May I ask your esteemed name? I'll need an introduction when we enter the capital city in the future!"
Chu Chen raised an eyebrow upon hearing this. "Tiger Valley, and you dare to fight? How bold must your parents be?"
Then he said calmly to Hu Gu Yongdou, "Chen Qingxuan."
Just as Chen Qingxuan, who was far away in Qingyun Hongmanlang, finished his business, he suddenly sneezed in front of Wang Qingquan.
Seeing this, Wang Qingquan looked at Chen Qingxuan with concern and asked, "Daoist Master, did you catch a cold last night?"
"It's nothing, maybe some bastard is cursing me. Hey... why are you getting dressed?"
When Tiger Valley Yongdou heard Chu Chen address him by his full name, he thought to himself that this young master valued him highly.
He immediately bowed to Chu Chen and said, "So it is Young Master Chen who is here. Tiger Valley Warrior is very polite."
"Alright, let's go. Thank you for your help, Toraku... Yuto!"
Two days later, Chu Chen put down the notebook in his hand that was recording the route, and then lifted the curtain of the carriage to ask the waiter.
"Tiger Valley, where are we?"
"Reporting to Young Master Chen, we estimate we will arrive at the capital in about half an hour."
After listening, Chu Chen waved his hand, telling him to continue driving, while he pressed the earpiece of the walkie-talkie and spoke into it.
"You two, speed up and get into the capital ahead of time. Be checked at the gate and be careful."
A moment later, the voices of Chu Yi and Chu San came through the earpiece.
Immediately afterwards, two fast horses overtook Chu Chen's carriage and headed towards the capital city.
An hour later, Chu Chen's carriage arrived at the gate of the capital city.
Seeing the carriage stop, Chu Chen lifted the curtain and looked at the city walls of the capital.
The city walls were not much different from those of the Great Xia city, and were even more backward.
There were several Japanese characters written on the city gate, which Chu Chen did not recognize and did not care to recognize.
At this moment, Hu Gu Yongdou's voice came from outside the carriage: "Young Master Chen, we have arrived at the capital. Please get out of the carriage for inspection."
Is the inspection so strict?
After listening, Chu Chen waved his hand and put all the weapons and equipment on his waist into his spatial storage.
Then, holding a small bag of silver in his hand, he got up and got off the carriage.
Seeing this, Torakuya Yudou led the carriage and walked towards the city gate.
"Who are you? What brings you to the capital?"
The soldiers guarding the city looked at Chu Chen's luxurious carriage and stepped forward to speak to Hu Gu Yongdou.
"Sir, this is a distinguished guest from Great Xia, Young Master Chen!"
After saying that, Tiger Valley Yongdou obediently handed a small bag of silver to the city guard.
Upon hearing that Chu Chen came from the Great Xia, the man immediately took it to heart.
The man raised an eyebrow and strode towards Chu Chen.
Then he rattled off a string of words to Chu Chen, who turned to look at Tiger Valley Warrior after listening.
"Young Master Chen, the military officer asks you why you have come to Japan."
Chu Chen didn't speak, but quietly handed a bag of silver to the soldier.
He then continued, "Tiger Valley, tell him that I am a member of the Great Xia royal family and wish to come to this capital to meet your king."
Upon hearing this, Tiger Valley Yongdou was shocked. A member of the Great Xia royal family? Isn't this Young Master Chen a merchant?
But as a translator, he didn't ask, and simply stated the truth.
The soldier's expression immediately changed after hearing that.
He wasn't quite sure about Japan's attitude towards Daxia, but he had heard that Japan had previously sent warships to attack Daxia.
Why did the members of the Great Xia royal family suddenly arrive?
At that moment, he felt the silver in his hand was somewhat heavy.
He immediately said to Tora Valley Yudou, "Your young master is a bit different. Please wait a moment while I finish my report."
After saying that, he headed into the city.
Seeing this, Chu Chen smiled and turned back into the carriage.
In fact, Chu Chen had no intention of hiding his identity since he came to the capital, and his people had already been sent out.
Then I'll go and try to break into the Japanese imperial palace.
Without entering the palace, it would be difficult to find out the location of the jade essence.
The original plan was to come to Japan, find a guide, enter the capital, and then find an opportunity to steal from its national treasury.
But when he encountered the warship carrying the princess to propose marriage to the Great Xia, he changed his mind.
If what the general said is true, and the Japanese are willing to propose marriage, then as soon as I issue my token, there are two possibilities.
Firstly, they were treated very well by the Japanese and were regarded as honored guests.
Secondly, the Japanese changed their minds and sought to control him, thus threatening Zhou Shixun.
But secondly, can they really do it? With their own space at their disposal, it's unlikely anyone could easily control themselves.
If they implement the second point, then Chu Yi and Chu San in the city will have a reason to use the rocket launcher and general-purpose machine gun.
If Chu Chen doesn't smash his palace to pieces, then he'll be considered merciful.
Therefore, it's better to take things openly than to do it secretly.
Moreover, when I went into my spatial dimension to drink water last night, I discovered that I had broken through to the ninth rank within the last few days.
This further strengthened Chu Chen's resolve to confront the issue directly.
As for Tiger Valley Warrior and the innkeeper who had seen their group of eleven, they probably won't live past tonight.
A short while later, the soldier led several men and hurriedly approached Chu Chen's carriage.
Toraya Yuto looked at the group of people in official robes who were hurrying over in surprise, and his surprise immediately increased.
Could it be that the person I'm with is truly someone who keeps a low profile?
However, the Japanese have always instilled in them the idea that Great Xia is rich in resources and that Japan should go and occupy it when the time is right.
But judging from the officials' hurried yet respectful attitude, this is very illogical.
Before he could think further, one of the officials in the group respectfully addressed Chu Chen in the carriage in the Great Xia language: "Distinguished guest from afar, please dismount and proceed to the Imperial Palace, so that our Japan may extend its hospitality."
Chu Chen grinned after hearing this and picked up the earpiece of the walkie-talkie: "That waiter is useless now, find a chance to get rid of him."
After Chu Yi's "Understood" was clearly heard through the earpiece, Chu Chen then stepped out of the carriage, holding a golden token in his hand.
"I am Chen Qingxuan, carrying the token of the Emperor of Great Xia, and I have come to meet the King of Japan."
The newcomer looked at the token in Chu Chen's hand. As a diplomat from Japan, how could he not recognize the power of this thing in Great Xia?
He immediately beamed and said to Chu Chen, "Envoy Chen, please follow me into the palace."
Chu Chen smiled slightly after hearing this: "Then I'll trouble you. Lead the way."
After saying that, he smiled at Tiger Valley Warrior and said, "You wait here in the capital. I'll come find you after I've finished my business."
Torakuya Yudou didn't say anything, but bowed to Chu Chen and his group, then drove the carriage into the city and found an inn to stay in.
