Chapter 390 Father and Son
It was late at night, Mr. Chu Jiu went out of the viewing tower, instead of going back to rest, he went to Mrs. Qiao's place.

There is no longer Mrs. Xiang in Xifang Pavilion, and King He Xing rested at Mrs. Qiao's place when he came back.

Master Jiu of Chu waited on the verandah for a long time, until the cold dew wet his clothes, the maid finally came out and sent a message: "Please, Master Jiu."

Prince Jiu of Chu entered the room and saw King He Xing leaning against the head of the bed, he bowed down and said, "Father."

King He Xing is eating supper, and Mrs. Qiao is waiting on him.

The mother and son met each other lightly, and looked away as if nothing had happened. One concentrated on serving, and the other bowed his head and waited.

King Hexing didn't speak, so Young Master Chu Jiu didn't get up, listening silently to the sound of bowls and spoons colliding.

After a while, King He Xing finally had enough to eat, he opened his mouth and asked, "Have you finished cooking the rest?"

"Yes." Young Master Chu Jiu replied, "Sure enough, someone came to rescue Mrs. Xiang, and Miss Xu San chased after him."

"You trust her." King He Xing cocked his lips, his tone unpredictable.

Young Master Chu Jiu couldn't figure out what he meant, so he remained silent.

King He Xing was stirring with a bowl and spoon in his hand, and suddenly threw the soup cup out, and it fell to pieces with a bang, splashing Prince Chu Jiu all over.

The servants were startled, and knelt down on the floor.

Mrs. Qiao also knelt down: "My lord, calm down."

King He Xing's face sank like water: "Get out!"

The servants looked at each other and went to see Mrs. Qiao.

Mrs. Qiao respectfully and calmly: "Yes."

Under her leadership, the servants retreated one by one.

Only father and son were left in the house.

King He Xing's gaze was cold, staring at his son whom he had loved for more than ten years.

"This king really didn't expect that you are the most restless person in this mansion. You are eager to seize power before you die? That team of soldiers and horses has been raised for a long time? Even this king doesn't know their existence! "

What he was talking about was the Black Armored Army. It was not an army on the face of the palace, it could only be raised in private.

Master Chu Jiu didn't panic, and said: "Father, calm down, that was originally the guard army guarding the mine in Shagang, but they were disbanded and had nowhere to go, so I paid for them to stay. I just happened to have some ideas about military training. , I tried it on them, and there was no one available this time, so I transferred them here."

So he admitted it.

King He Xing sneered: "You are really promising, such an army is lying in ambush quietly, and the guards don't know anything about it. As long as you are willing, this king's life is also in your hands, isn't it? "

This crime is serious, Mr. Chu Jiu bowed down deeply: "My child is only worried about your safety, so I made such a bad plan."

"is it?"

"Yes." Young Master Chu Jiu answered resolutely, "Madam Xiang has ulterior motives, but I have no proof."

"Are you blaming me?"

"Child dare not."

King He Xing looked at him coldly for a while, and finally asked, "What do you want to do?"

Young Master Chu Jiu replied: "Naturally, we need to solve this matter. Madam Xiang intends to harm you. If you don't solve it, your life will be endangered."

"You're lying!" King He Xing said angrily, "It's just that there are many ways to solve this matter. The easiest way is to tell the commander. But you didn't. You bypassed the guards, bypassed all the forces in the palace, and even did not hesitate to Seek help from outsiders, mobilize people, spend a lot of trouble, show your ability and power to everyone, and you say you just want to solve this matter? You don’t think this king is so stupid, do you? Tell me the truth!”

Young Master Chu Jiu was silent for a long time, finally kowtowed slowly, and said word by word: "Please father, please make me your son."

He said this sentence very steadily, without guilt or excitement, as if he had thought about it countless times in his heart, but when he said it, he could only speak calmly.

See the picture poorly.

King He Xing fell silent instead.

He looked at the son kneeling in front of him, his favorite son for more than ten years.

"You can't wait?" he asked.

Young Master Chu Jiu raised his head, but smiled faintly: "No, my child is only twenty this year, so you can wait another ten or twenty years."

"then you……"

"The child is just afraid," said Mr. Chu Jiu. "I thought that my father will always be my father, the most loving father in the world. You bother to think about me, and you don't hesitate to spend your family money in order to make me the son of the world. I went to Nanyuan to seek marriage. But suddenly Mrs. Xiang came, and I found out that I was wrong. It turned out that my mother fell out of favor when she said she was out of favor. It turns out that the father and king can be just a king, not a father. It turns out that there are some things I can't say..."

King He Xing's eyes showed deep disappointment: "This is what you thought? Just because you were punished once, all the old father-son relationship was erased? Then you know, I never considered other candidates for my father. Punishing you is also to test you."

"My son knows." Young Master Chu Jiu responded calmly, "Even if you punish me, you still allow me to be a director. This will not shake the foundation."

"Since you know, then you still..."

"Then do you know that your test shakes the foundation of Prince Hexing's mansion?" Mr. Chu Jiu interrupted him, "I dare to ask you a question, if I tell you that Mrs. Xiang is a fine artist, would you believe me?"

King He Xing was silent.

"You don't believe me." Young Master Chu Jiu smiled slightly, "Father, if I only have the position of a son in my heart, I can completely pretend that I don't know anything. Mrs. Xiang kidnapped you, and the Hexing Palace is mine. Or , I will listen to your arrangement with peace of mind, pass your test, and obey your will. But in that case, what will happen to Hexing Palace?"

After a short pause, he announced a message: "You don't know, do you? The mastermind behind Mrs. Xiang is Jiang Yi."

King He Xing was taken aback: "He..."

Young Master Chu Jiu continued: "I know what you think. It is really difficult for Hexing Palace to fight for the world. But with the foundation of our Chu family, it is not a problem to keep this side of power. So you don't want to enter or retreat. But Father, the current situation is changing rapidly, and we don’t do whatever we want. My son went to Nanyuan and deeply felt that the world has changed. There are many heroes, and if we don’t advance, we will retreat. If we don’t move, let alone want to keep it. He Xing, the blood of the Chu family may not be able to keep it."

These words made King He Xing's heart ache, and he scolded: "Don't scare me!"

Master Chu Jiu didn't back down: "Do you think it's alarmist? You have seen what Miss Xu San is like, and you know what Jiang Yi is like. Hexing is sandwiched between Jiangbei and Nanyuan. Do you think we have Is there a chance?"

"Then what do you want? Take refuge in one of them?" King He Xing was displeased, "Chu's century-old family business, do you think you can keep it this way?"

"I don't know if I can keep it or not, but I know that the current situation has changed, and those who remain the same will only be abandoned in the dust of history." Young Master Chu Jiu raised his head, "Father, you can scold the child severely, But the boy has no shame in his heart, all this is for He Xing, for the Chu family."
