Chapter 1539 The Most Romantic Thing (Second Update)

Xia Chujian didn't care at all and said, "Then tell me the gossip you heard. Let me see the value of your achievements."

Quan Yuxun said, "You don't believe me?"

Xia Chujian said, "What does this have to do with belief or not? Okay, I believe that the empress particularly favors you and that you are the empress's favorite little wolfdog, okay?"

Quan Yuxun felt the veins on his forehead throbbing, and he was unknowingly led astray by Xia Chujian.

He said unhappily, "I am older than your Majesty! How can I be a little wolf-dog?"

Xia Chujian sighed: "You really don't know what's good for you. It sounds better when I praise you as a young wolfdog than an old wolfdog, right?"

Quan Yuxun: "..."

The corners of his mouth twitched, and he said, "Okay, stop talking nonsense."

"Since you want to know, I'll give you some basic knowledge, free of charge."

Xia Chujian: "..."

It costs so much to talk to a lawyer.

Quan Yuxun knew what this little miser was thinking at a glance.

He raised the corners of his lips and said, "Based on common sense, there are two possible reasons for this incident."

"First, the empress wants to use your influence to further consolidate her influence and support among the grassroots people. This is very important for her to stabilize the throne she just obtained."

"Second, she wants you to carry a sedan chair for others."

"Your popularity is at its peak now. If she doesn't make full use of it, she will no longer be a member of the Tan Tai royal family."

Xia Chujian asked curiously, "What does it mean to carry a sedan chair for others? Does it mean to carry a sedan chair literally, or does it mean something else?"

Quan Yuxun said: "To put it simply, it is to serve as a stepping stone for others to move up."

Xia Chujian understood, and said with a displeased face, "Why? I have made such great contributions for her imperial rule, why do you have to step on my face to lift up others?"

"Do you know who has such a big face?"

Quan Yuxun said: "I tried to inquire, but this time, His Majesty kept it a secret and I couldn't find out any information at all."

"You have to know that because her majesty ascended the throne too hastily and did not go through the stage of being a crown princess, she does not have many people available to her."

"So her secretariat is leaking like a sieve."

"But this time, no news leaked out, which is very unusual."

Xia Chujian: "..."

After a moment of silence, Quan Yuxun continued, "Your Majesty is making such a grand display this time. I'm afraid this sedan chair is not ordinary. You should be mentally prepared."

Xia Chujian: "..."

She wondered, "At this ceremony of awarding honors to meritorious officials, she stepped on the meritorious official's face. What does this empress want?"

"Isn't she going to fight the Zerg?"

"If she does this, who in the army will be willing to work for her sincerely?"

Quan Yuxun said, "That's common sense, but what if the person she wants to promote is particularly powerful?"

"Can you still help her fight the Zerg?"

Xia Chujian said: "I can do it too! Which of our five major interstellar fleets can't do it?"

Quan Yuxun said, "What if that person is more powerful than all of you combined?"

Xia Chujian: "..."

Her eyes flickered slightly, and she asked tentatively: "... Could it be that, Huo Shuai, has recovered?"

Of course she knew about Huo Yushen's situation, but she didn't know whether others knew it, such as Quan Yuxun.

Sure enough, Quan Yuxun frowned slightly and said, "If it is really Marshal Huo, then you have to admit it even if His Majesty drags you down."

"But according to the information I received, Huo Shuai's condition has not improved."

"I heard that he has been taken to Mulan City on Guiyuan Star by his mother to live in seclusion."

Suddenly, he looked up at Xia Chujian and said, "Do you know where Huo Shuai and his mother are now?"

Xia Chujian looked puzzled, looking at Quan Yuxun on the virtual display screen and said, "How should I know?"

"Chief Quan, just because I was born in Mulan City, you can't think that I know everything about Mulan City!"

"Also, don't you remember that my house was destroyed and has just been rebuilt?"

"I moved my family out and the house is empty. I have already entrusted it to my real estate agent to rent it out."

Xia Chujian cleverly left a trap here.

If Quan Yuxun finds out that Huo Yushen and his mother live in Xia Chujian's house, she can also shirk responsibility by saying that the real estate agent handled the formalities and she just collected the money...

However, Xia Chujian didn't know if she could hide the truth from a cunning man like Quan Yuxun.

She was nervous in her heart, but she looked calm on the surface.

Quan Yuxun didn't think much about it.

He hadn't been to Mulan City on Guiyuan Star for a long time, so he didn't know the situation there.

He knew that Xia Chujian's family was destroyed because of his second uncle.

Later, the Xia family was rebuilt with money paid by the second uncle.

This was as he should have done. He did not take the initiative, but only instructed the housekeeper of Quan's manor in Mulan City, Guiyuan Star, to help the Xia family more.

Now he is facing pressure from the empress and is unable to take care of himself.

This was a first for the four great noble families. In the past ten thousand years, the Beichen royal family had only produced three female emperors.

The first empress died of illness one year after she ascended the throne. The second empress was emperor for nearly sixty years, but she never got married in her life. As soon as she ascended the throne, she made her brother's son the crown prince.

The current empress, Tan Tai Zijun, is the third one.

She is still young, and there happens to be no constraints from the royal family.

She is the only one, so she will definitely get married and have children so that there will be an heir to the throne.

But for thousands of years, the Quan, Su and Zong families have had an unwritten agreement that they would not marry into the royal family.

So in the previous generation, the eldest princess, Tan Tai Jin Yu, suddenly married the second son of the Grand Duke Zong, which surprised the other two families.

But now they all know that the eldest princess, Tan Tai Jin Yu, is not of Tan Tai's bloodline.

Of course, they now also know that Su, as the high priest, actually knew it a long time ago.

The only one who was kept in the dark was probably the Quan family.

Even Mr. Zong probably knew the truth, so he turned a blind eye to this marriage.

Among the four great noble families, only the family of Grand Duke Li has always been willing to marry into the royal family.

But the previous Queen Li had never given birth to a child of royal blood.

The current empress is a descendant of the Li family, so this can be considered a successful speculation.

It is precisely because of this that the clan elders' councils of the Quan, Su, and Zong families are now weighing whether or not to marry into the royal family.

Is it still necessary for them to follow their unwritten ancestral precepts?
Quan Yuxun’s view is very simple: marriage is okay, but don’t use yourself to form a marriage!
Which family wants the imperial power of Tan Tai? They can use their own sons to marry into the family, or they can go themselves, as long as the empress does not mind their age.

He definitely doesn't want to.

On the Su family's side, Quan Yuxun knew that the high priest Su Yanxing did not want to marry into the royal family, and had sent Su Buyan to a secret place, and was said to be looking for a marriage partner for him.

If I don't find a marriage partner, I will most likely be pushed in front of the empress by the Quan clan elders...

Quan Yuxun thought of this and suddenly said to Xia Chujian on the other side of the virtual display screen: "Yuanbao, how about doing me a favor?"

Xia Chujian said, "What is it? As long as it is within my ability, I will consider it."

Quan Yuxun: "..."

It's true that after not seeing you for a few days, you have to look at you with new eyes.

He thought she was going to say, "I will help you as much as I can."

The result is, "As long as I can, I will consider it"...

We should also consider what we can do. This tone is not very sincere!

Quan Yuxun muttered in her heart, but still had the famous "Quan Yuxun smile" on her face, and said, "It's like this, I don't want to be one of the empress's concubines, but my family pressed me hard, so I told them that I already have a fiancée."

Xia Chujian was surprised and said, "You already have a fiancée!"

"What's that guy's name? He's really good at singing... Oh, yes, his name is Mei Jiangli!"

"Isn't she your fiancée?"

Quan Yuxun could hardly hold back the smile on his face. He chuckled and said, "Unfortunately, I just broke off my engagement with her a while ago."

Xia Chujian burst out laughing: "Chief Quan is also trying to break off the engagement! This is not good!"

"What if the great star Mei lets out a roar of 'Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west, don't bully weak women' in a rage, and breaks through the ceiling of genetic evolution to achieve the heaven-defying evolution level of 3S? What will you do?"

Quan Yuxun laughed out loud: "Yuanbao, you read too many online novels!"

Xia Chujian also laughed: "Chief Quan has read a lot too! Otherwise, how would he know that I read the little online novel?"

The two of them joked around and finally managed to block out the words that could have embarrassed both of them.

Quan Yuxun couldn't say it, and Xia Chujian didn't want him to say it either.

She could guess what Quan Yuxun was going to say because she had experienced the same thing before, with Zong Ruoan.

The consequences were not pretty.

The two people who could have been friends before, after that incident, can no longer even be friends.

As for Xia Chujian's friendship with Quan Yuxun, it was much deeper than that with Zong Ruoan, and he did not want to lose this friend even more.

So after laughing for a while, we didn't mention the matter again.

Quan Yuxun sighed in his heart, but had no intention of giving up.

It took him a lot of effort to understand his own feelings, and he even understood what a girl like Xia Chujian wanted. He began to cultivate his character and stopped associating with other women.

As for his fiancée Mei Jiangli, she had actually broken off the engagement long ago.

He broke off the engagement before he realized his feelings for Xia Chujian.

Because at that time he didn't want to get married, but Mei Jiangli wanted to get married.

This is a fundamental difference in the two people's cognition, so they can part ways amicably.

Later, when he realized his feelings for Xia Chujian, he realized that it wasn't that he didn't want to get married, but that he didn't want to marry Mei Jiangli.

If that person was Xia Chujian, he would get the marriage certificate without hesitation, as long as she could be legally included in the same household registration book with him.

This is the most romantic thing for him.

But he also knew that he just felt romantic.

Xia Chujian had no such thoughts towards him...

There will be an update at 05:00 in the evening.
