Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

Chapter 761 A big bet

Gu Chan didn't say anything more, but remained quiet, giving Xuanyuan Wen time to think.

After a long while, Xuanyuan Wen said with a gloomy face, "You are worthy of being the youngest prince of our Tiancang Kingdom. I really underestimated you."

After saying that, he looked at Big White Rabbit and said, "You go out and guard the door. No one is allowed to come in without my order."

The big white rabbit nodded and immediately stood up and went to guard outside the study.

After it left, Xuanyuan Wencai stared at Gu Chan and asked, "How did you find out about this?"

"Don't worry about it. All you need to know is that its mind-reading ability is useless to me now." Gu Chan said with a sneer.

Xuanyuan Wen curled his lips into a smile and immediately gave Gu Chan a thumbs-up.

Gu Chan did not dwell on the matter any further. Instead, she reached into her sleeve, took out the replica of the imperial seal that Feng Shishi had given her, and placed it on the desk.

Xuanyuan Wen was dismissive of this and didn't even look at it.

Gu Chan said directly, "Old Prince, since things have come to this point, let's be frank. This imperial seal is undoubtedly a fake."

"Since you have already identified the results, I would like to ask you, if I were to become the emperor, would you support me?" Xuanyuan Wen said tentatively.

"I don't support it." Gu Chan said in a deep voice.

"boom!"

Xuanyuan Wen slammed his fist on the desk and roared angrily, "Why, you don't support me, do you support that stinky boy Xuanyuan Long? If the throne falls into his hands, the entire Tiancang Kingdom will suffer, but if it falls into my hands, I will definitely let the people live a good life, and I will also defeat the Diyue Kingdom and expand the territory for the Tiancang Kingdom."

"Don't worry, old prince. I don't support you, and naturally I don't support him. In my eyes, neither of you is suitable to be the emperor of Tiancang Kingdom." Gu Chan said with a faint smile.

"Hmph! Then who do you think is suitable?" Xuanyuan Wen asked.

"Of course it's the Ninth Prince. He is better than you two in both literary and military strategy. But he has one biggest weakness, which is his soft heart. If he had not accepted the imperial edict and returned to Kyoto, but had directly established his own army on the border, who could have done anything to him?" Gu Chan sighed.

In her opinion, the Ninth Prince Xuanyuan Qing was just like the ancient celebrity Prince Fusu in the world she lived in before. This man clearly had the ability to unify the world, but he died in the end because of his kindness.

So from the beginning to the end, she firmly believed that Xuanyuan Qing was the best candidate for the new emperor of Tiancang Kingdom.

Xuanyuan Wen was originally furious, but when he heard what Gu Chan said, he instantly calmed down. Anyway, as long as Gu Chan did not support Prince Xuanyuan Wen to become emperor, he could feel at ease.

After all, Xuanyuan Qing had been imprisoned in the Sky Prison for a long time and was already on the verge of death. He posed no threat to him, so he naturally didn't need to bother himself with a dying man.

Thinking this in his heart, Xuanyuan Wen sneered and said, "Gu Chan, I advise you to sober up. Now that brat Xuanyuan Qing is not far from death, it will be useless for you to support him. It is better for you to stand on my side. And to put it bluntly, I already know that the real imperial seal is in your hands. As long as you are willing to hand it over to me and support me as the new emperor, I guarantee that you will be rich and prosperous in the future, and you will have endless money and beauties to enjoy."

"Then, old prince, how about this, let's make a big bet." Gu Chan said with a wry smile. "What bet?" Xuanyuan Wen asked with interest.

Gu Chan said cunningly, "Give me three days. If I can rescue the Ninth Prince safely from the Heavenly Prison, then I will support him in competing with you and the Crown Prince for the throne. If I cannot do this within three days, then in the morning of three days later, I will definitely come to the Earth Sect again and present the genuine imperial seal with both hands."

"This..." Xuanyuan Wen frowned.

"Old prince, if you want to sit on the throne, of course it depends on your own ability. You have worked in Kyoto for so many years. Whether it is the ability of your subordinates or the power, you can compete with the prince! Since the two of you are able to compete, I naturally cannot favor either of you, so I choose to support the one with the weakest power. Do you still fear me?" Gu Chan said deliberately to provoke.

Xuanyuan Wen's competitive spirit was aroused at once.

He slapped the desk with his hand and laughed, "Interesting. I've lived for decades, but this is the first time I've been challenged by such a young kid. Since you're so courageous, I really want to see how you helped Old Nine ascend to the throne."

"Is it settled then?" Gu Chan asked with a smile.

"You can take this gamble, but the premise is that you can't break into the prison and snatch him out by force. Instead, you have to take him out of the prison reasonably and legally." Xuanyuan Wen said with caution.

"Of course. If I really try to rob him, the prince won't agree! Anyway, if I want to rescue him safely, I have to get past the prince first." Gu Chan said with his hands spread out.

Xuanyuan Wen sneered and said, "The Crown Prince is now eager to put Old Nine to death. If you can really convince him and release Old Nine safely, I will really consider you capable. And to put it bluntly, once Old Nine comes out, he will compete with him for the throne, and he will definitely not agree."

"Old Prince, everything is possible! Why do you have to say it so absolutely?" Gu Chan said with a grin.

Xuanyuan Wen was too lazy to say more to her, and simply waved his hand and said, "Okay, it's settled. You can take this imperial seal and go! I'll be waiting for you at Dizong in the morning three days later. Be good and bring me the real imperial seal."

"Okay, old prince, let's just wait and see. I'll take my leave first." Gu Chan stood up and bowed.

After saying that, she strode away.

After leaving the study, she glared at Big White Rabbit fiercely and said, "It seems that the beating I gave you last time was too light. You don't know how high the sky is and how high the earth is. I will have to find another opportunity to give you another beating in the future."

[No, Prince Chan, I am just following orders. If you want to blame someone, blame the old prince, don’t blame me!] Big White Rabbit said fearfully.

Although it is the only sacred beast of Tiancang Kingdom, when it comes to strength, it is certainly not as good as the four pure-blooded large spirit beasts around Gu Chan, so at this moment, it still feels a little offended.

Gu Chan didn't bother to waste time talking to it. She just glared at it with a sinister smile, then put her hands behind her back and walked away with a swagger.

"Gulu!"

The big white rabbit looked at her departing back and swallowed his saliva in fear.

At this time, it was thinking in its heart that this little devil Gu Chan was simply an evil star, and if she said to beat her, she would really beat her! It seemed that if it met her again in the future, it would have to walk around her.
