Chapter 106 Godfather... It's you!
"Godfather...it's you..."
Xiao Dengzi recognized the person at a glance.
Although my godfather looks young now and doesn't hunch over anymore!
But he could never forget that expression and look, even if he turned to ashes!
"Scared, weren't you?" Chen Fan smiled, squinting as he approached.
"It's alright, with your godfather around, you won't die."
"Godfather, how come you've gotten so young?" Little Stool swallowed hard, his eyes full of confusion.
"Now is not the time to talk," Chen Fan said with a smile.
"Let's go hide somewhere together first..."
The words fell.
Before the little stool could react, everything went blurry in front of its eyes!
Not long after the two left.
A man suddenly rushed in from outside the Imperial Stables.
His entire body radiated the cultivation level of the Qi Refining Realm. He looked around and went straight to the horse pen corridor.
Upon seeing the three headless corpses on the ground, the newcomer immediately turned and left...
……
Three days passed quickly.
A world within a bowl.
In the courtyard, Chen Fan lay on the armchair, squinting as he rested.
And standing next to him was Emperor Jianwen.
These past three days.
Feeling restless, he would ask Chen Fan about the situation in the palace every day.
The news we received was nothing more than that the capital city of Dayuan had been subjected to a bloodbath.
Almost everyone who disobeyed Prince Jing'an died.
The newly enthroned prince was also very kind.
That is to announce to the world that all those who submit to him will be pardoned.
"Eunuch Chen... Prince Jing'an is my imperial uncle. He conspired with Emperor Changchun to rebel, a capital offense... I beg you... go out and kill him..."
Hearing Emperor Jianwen's plea.
Chen Fan opened his eyes.
Looking at the emaciated and withered Eighth Prince, who no longer possessed the regal bearing of his former self, he smiled and said:
"Eighth Prince, even if you kill one Prince Jing'an, other vassal kings will rise to take his place. What the Changchun Sect needs is a stable Great Yuan Dynasty. Who becomes emperor is not important..."
"Father-in-law..." Emperor Jianwen gritted his teeth and said:
"The Changchun Sect is a malignant tumor in our Great Abyss. I am carrying on my father's legacy..."
"Stop talking, Eighth Prince," Chen Fan interrupted.
"I'm just a eunuch who tends horses. You spared me from being buried alive with you back then, and now I've saved you in return. That settles the karmic debt between us. As for revenge... Your Majesty, please don't mention it. I'm already eighty years old, and I'm truly powerless to help you..."
After saying this, Chen Fan got up and disappeared in a flash.
Emperor Jianwen, stunned in place, swallowed hard, his eyes filled with helplessness.
After the person left, he turned around and went to the horse pen.
Upon seeing his father's old warhorse, Black Wind, Emperor Jianwen was overcome with emotion and said:
"Father, Quan'er... will definitely do it!"
hiss…
Seeing this, Black Wind, who was munching on a sweet potato, looked at him with disgust.
It turned away from the young man who liked to cry...
……
Go back inside.
Chen Fan glanced at Xiao Hua, who was tied up, and a smile appeared on his lips.
I thought to myself that this cat is really lucky; it actually stays out all night during this chaotic time of war.
If Chen Fan hadn't caught it, who knows which wild cat would have ended up dying on its belly.
Meow…
Xiao Hua saw the old eunuch come out and then glanced at him.
Having lost its freedom, it appeared listless and dispirited.
"Wait until things are peaceful in the palace... then you can go out..." Chen Fan said, tossing a radish to the person in question.
"They really are a handful for our family..."
I fed the cat.
Chen Fan then pushed open the door and went out.
Looking up, the sky above was bright and clear, a perfect sunny day.
He no longer needed to pretend to be an old eunuch; at this moment, he was walking around the Imperial Stables with a youthful air.
It was still faintly visible that everything in the horse pen remained the same, including the little stool, which was still alive.
This is all thanks to the general amnesty granted by the Prince of Jing'an.
Without leaving the Imperial Horse Stables, Chen Fan was naturally willing to submit.
The only difference is that the old eunuch Chen Fan is dead.
The eunuch currently remaining at the Imperial Horse Stables is the young Chen Fan, also known as Eunuch Chen.
"Godfather, you're here..."
Upon entering the kitchen, a small stool was used to heat water over a fire.
He was still a little unaccustomed to seeing his godfather arrive.
"What's there to be afraid of? It's a good thing that my godfather has become young again," Chen Fan said with a squinty smile.
"You think our family would eat you?"
"Godfather, that's not what I meant," Little Stool said sheepishly.
"I just feel really uneasy. Clearly... clearly Godfather... you were about to die, and then suddenly..."
"You'll get used to it eventually," Chen Fan said, sitting down on the stool as usual.
"Have you learned the techniques our family gave you? Have you made any progress?"
The little stool shook its head slightly.
Three days ago, after learning that his godfather was a cultivator, he also obtained a cultivation technique.
In the past two days, whenever he had free time, he would keep in mind his godfather's instructions to cultivate.
But after several attempts, Xiao Dengzi still had no clue.
"Take your time," Chen Fan said, taking a large white radish from his pocket.
"Take one a day, on time, there's no rush to cultivate immortality, you know..."
"Yes... Godfather!" He nodded as he took the radish stool.
"By the way, Godfather, news has come from the palace that Prince Jing'an is preparing to ascend the throne tomorrow, and the reign title will be Yongle!"
Emperor Yongle?
Chen Fan nodded.
He wasn't really interested in royal affairs.
Even his act of saving Emperor Jianwen was merely to settle his karmic debts!
As for who becomes emperor and who seeks revenge, he truly doesn't want to get involved in those matters.
Chen Fan, who was about to break through again, sighed and stood up, saying:
"Let's stay home as much as possible these days. We're just eunuchs tending the horses; our job is to take good care of them!"
"Yes... Godfather." Watching his godfather turn and leave, Xiao Dengzi felt a pang of sadness.
I thought to myself that if I had died that night, maybe I wouldn't have known so much!
But it was precisely because he survived that he became different from ordinary eunuchs!
And this is all thanks to her loving godfather.
Thinking of this, a glint of light appeared in Xiao Dengzi's eyes!
He turned around and continued working...
……
Leave the Imperial Stables.
Chen Fan then walked towards the Imperial Garden.
With Emperor Jianwen gone, the palace has been in complete chaos these past two days.
In addition, many of the dancing girls died, leaving Chen Fan with nowhere to appreciate art!
Fortunately, the library is still there.
He also has a place to read books.
As Chen Fan strolled along the paths of the Imperial Garden, he occasionally spotted members of the Embroidered Uniform Guard and the Imperial Guards.
These are all servants that Prince Jing'an brought from his fiefdom, and now they've all become government employees!
Moreover, all of these people were at least at the post-natal level, and some were not even martial artists.
Compared to the Embroidered Uniform Guard during the reign of Emperor Jianwen, these people were far too weak!
Chen Fan was not surprised by this.
After all, after the Jianwen Emperor incident, Emperor Changchun would never allow a second rebellious emperor to appear!
Clearly, the Changchun Sect's military sanctions against Dayuan are even more severe than before!
Moreover, almost all the remaining formations inside and outside the imperial city disappeared overnight.
The Daeyu Palace now seems to have returned to the era decades ago, when assassins were everywhere...
