Chapter 110 Allegiance

"What are you doing?" Zhao Chen said in surprise.

"Your Majesty, my mother has been cured!" Kang An said.

"So that's it! That's great!" Zhao Chen said with a smile.

He felt a sudden realization! He was wondering why Kang An suddenly fell to his knees, but now he understands!

Speaking of which, his relationship with Kang An is very average. He only talks to Kang An occasionally! As for Kang An’s mother’s affairs, it was just a secret chess he set up casually. He didn’t expect this secret chess to play a big role! Therefore, he did not take this matter to heart. He was surprised when Kang An knelt down!

"I want to thank Your Majesty for your great kindness! In the future, I will only follow Your Majesty's leader! You will do whatever Your Majesty asks me to do! You will also kill anyone Your Majesty asks me to kill!" Kang An said.

"I won't let you kill anyone, stand up!" Zhao Chen said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, I want to be loyal to you!" Kang An said instead of standing up.

"Oh? Have you been unfaithful to me before?" Zhao Chen said.

"No... I was not as loyal as I am now!" Kang An felt sweat oozing out of his forehead. He didn't know how to express his current emotions!

"You stand up first!" Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, do you believe me? I really want to be loyal to you now!" Kang Anlu said anxiously.

"I believe! You are flat! Otherwise, what would others say when they come in and see the scene here!" Zhao Chen said.

"Yes, I will stand up now!" Kang An said.

"If there is nothing else, you can go out first!" Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, this eunuch Lin Bao is a ill-thinking person who always bewitches you to do things you shouldn't do! Your Majesty, you are an emperor, and you should handle national affairs in the palace and command the world, rather than doing woodworking every day in the Qianqing Palace. This is not in line with your supreme position!" Kang An remembered his mother's words and decided to "advice" Zhao Chen first, so he said.

"I know all these things, and Lord Li once told me! But I understand that Xiaolinzi is also doing it for my own good. When he saw that I was tired, he asked me to take a break and let me do my own thing. There is nothing wrong with this!" Zhao Chen said.

"Ah!" Kang An stayed there. He didn't expect that Zhao Chen would comment on Lin Bao like this!

"He is the chief supervisor of the Qianqing Palace, you are the chief supervisor of the imperial camp. Are there any conflicts between the two of you?" Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, there is no personal grudge between me and him! I am completely thinking about your Majesty! Your Majesty thinks twice!" Kang An said.

"I will think about your words! I understand your loyalty!" Zhao Chen said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, in addition to the eunuch Lin Bao, Lord Zhe... Zhe Daren is ambitious and also tries to be unfavorable to Your Majesty!" Kang An hesitated for a while and said.

He didn't plan to say these words, he originally wanted to talk about Lin Bao! But now he felt that Zhao Chen didn't believe in his "loyalty" at all, and Zhao Chen seemed to be perfunctory, so he said something about Zhe Keqiu! He also knew that this matter was extremely dangerous. If Zhao Chen didn't believe him at all and passed these words into Zhe Keqiu's ears, he would have to die! However, after he had the tattoo of Kang's mother on his back, it was difficult for him to live in peace with Zhe Keqiu. In this case, he could only put hope on Zhao Chen, hoping that Zhao Chen could "wake up" and hope that Zhao Chen could work hard and eventually defeat Zhe Keqiu! Therefore, he gritted his teeth and said Zhe Keqiu!

"Mr. Zhe is loyal to me. He sees that I am tired every day, so he handles state affairs for me! Kang'an, these words should not be said again in the future!" Zhao Chen said.

"Ah!" Kang An stayed there again!

He didn't expect that the emperor was so confused. Zhe Keqiu was obviously ambitious, but Zhao Chen regarded this as a kind-hearted person! He was very depressed, but then he thought that the emperor was only 11 years old, and this matter was understandable! But now Zhao Chen didn't believe him. If Zhao Chen told Zhe Keqiu these words, then he would be bad! For a moment, Kang An was sweating profusely!

"I know you are for my own good, but Lord Zhe is really loyal! You are a subordinate of Lord Zhe. If you say that Lord Zhe, Lord Zhe will definitely not be happy! But don't worry, I will not tell Lord Zhe about this!" Zhao Chen said with a smile.

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Your Majesty is so kind!" Kang An said.

Kang'an was relieved at this moment!

"Okay, Xiao Linzi is coming in, you can go out first!" Zhao Chen said.

"Yes!" Kang Andao.

Kang An hurriedly left the place and happened to run into Lin Bao when he was at the door. Lin Bao said, "Why is Mr. Kang here too?"

Kang An said: "Your Majesty's plane cannot be found, so let me help find it!"

This is a reason he had already thought of. At this moment, he said casually, without any flaws!

Lin Bao didn't think much about it. After a few greetings, Lin Bao walked into the Qianqing Palace with a charming smile on his face and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Zhe has sent the thousand-year-old yellow rosewood into the palace! What a big piece, do you want to send it in now!"

Zhao Chen said in surprise: "It's great to send it here quickly!"

Lin Bao left again, while Zhao Chen stood in front of the window, looking outside, thinking about Kang An in his heart!

Kang'an appeared unusually strange today! According to Zhao Chen's idea, even if he was kind to Kang'an and Kang'an, Kang'an could not be loyal to him so quickly! After all, Kang'an followed Zhe Keqiu for more than ten years, how could he betray Zhe Keqiu because of such a little favor? In Zhao Chen's opinion, Kang'an's arrival today should be a kind of "test"! Perhaps Zhe Keqiu was still worried about himself, so Kang'an was asked to test himself! Therefore, Zhao Chen did not show his sincerity. What he said was nothing but empty words and clichés without any flaws!

He didn't think about Kang's mother's factors at all, and he didn't understand what kind of person Kang's mother was! Therefore, he now made such a judgment!

"Look at it slowly in the future! Kang An is in the palace, and I have the opportunity to contact him! If he really defected to me and did betray Zhe Keqiu, that is indeed good news! He is the general manager of the Imperial Camp, and with him as an insider, it will be much easier to deal with Zhe Keqiu in the future! But this matter is still strange!" Zhao Chen said secretly.

Not long after, Lin Bao brought Huanghualimu over, and Zhao Chen began to work happily in carpentry, not to mention this.

*******

When it was the fourth day of November, Zhao Chen went out to hunt again!

This time I came to the dense forest, Kang An quietly approached Zhao Chen again and said, "Your Majesty, I swear in the name of my mother that I will definitely be loyal to Your Majesty!"

Zhao Chen was standing on the top of the mountain at this moment, looking at the vast snow around him, and smiled and said, "I know! Not only you, but all the civil and military ministers in the world are loyal to me! I am very satisfied!"

Kang An was about to cry without tears and said, "Your Majesty, I am different from those ministers! Those ministers all listen to what they can ask for, but I don't listen to what they can ask for!"

Zhao Chen said: "You can't do this! Lord Zhe is the Privy Councilor. After Li Gang left, I have decided to let him take over as prime minister! He will handle state affairs for me, so don't violate his orders!"

Kang An said anxiously: "Your Majesty, I hope you will be harmed!"

Zhao Chen said: "You are talking nonsense!"

Kang An said: "Why doesn't Your Majesty believe in the words of the empress? In order to take charge of the government affairs, he sent a eunuch to the palace to let Your Majesty stop the courting early, so that he can interfere in state affairs unscrupulously! Your Majesty, think about it, is this the truth?"

Zhao Chen thought for a while and said, "What you said may be reasonable!"

Kang An showed a surprise smile on his face and said, "Your Majesty, you are still young now and it is time to study hard. But Zhe Keqiu asked Lin Bao to instigate His Majesty to hunt and be a carpenter every day. Isn't he just to harm His Majesty?"

Zhao Chen said: "But these are things I really like!"

Kang An said: "Your Majesty is not studying your homework well now and lacks knowledge in the future. How can you govern the country?"

Zhao Chen thought for a while and said, "So, he really wants to harm me!"

Kang An said: "Yes! That's the reason! Your Majesty saved the life of Weichen's mother. Weichen's mother taught Weichen's justice. Weichen then realized that he should be loyal to His Majesty! Two nights ago, Weichen's mother engraved four words on Weichen's back!"

Zhao Chen said: "What four words?"

Kang An looked around and saw that the other guards were very far away from here. He suddenly took off his shirt and saw four words appear in front of Zhao Chen: "Swear to kill the thief"! At this moment, the four words had already formed a scar and looked a little hideous!

Seeing these four words, Zhao Chen couldn't help but feel moved! He finally believed in Kang'an a little! However, he was still worried that it was a test of Zhe Keqiu!

He was in trouble and had no one beside him, so he couldn't believe anyone! Even if Kang An said this, even if Kang An showed these four words on his back, he didn't dare to believe them completely! However, he could not let Kang An be completely disappointed!

Zhao Chen said at the moment: "I understand! I will study my homework well in the future, and I will go to the morning court! However, I still have to think about Mr. Zhe's affairs!"

Kang An had already put on his clothes and said, "It's great that Your Majesty is willing to do this! Your Majesty, I am also thinking about this matter these days. In fact, many people among the palace guards sympathize with Your Majesty and are willing to be loyal to Your Majesty! I will secretly convince these people that if these people are willing to deal with Zhe Keqiu with me, I will engrave the four words "Swear to Kill Zhe Thief" on their backs. If they don't want to, I will have to be cruel and ruthless and kill those who don't want to! In the future, I will sooner or later help Your Majesty kill this beast!"

Zhao Chen was increasingly convinced of Kang An at this moment, but he still kept his words a little and said tentatively: "If Zhe Aiqing really wants to frame me, I only need one word to take him down! You know, I am the emperor and command the world! Why bother with such trouble!"

Kang An was shocked and said, "Your Majesty, you must not do this! Now all the court is powered by Lord Zhe, and all the civil and military ministers listen to Lord Zhe! If you really do this, you will be completely under house arrest in the future. It is impossible to leave the Ganqing Palace! Lord Zhe is not wary of you now, and we can also secretly plot against him, and there is still a chance of success in the future! If Your Majesty does that, there will be no chance of success!"

Zhao Chen nodded and said, "I understand! Xiaolinzi and the guards are all here, let's talk about something else!"

Kang An looked of surprise on his face, and after a moment, he said, "Your Majesty is so smart, I admire you! Your Majesty, will we go to Changchun Temple later?"

Zhao Chen smiled and said, "I will spend the night in Changchun tonight! But there are not many guards there, what should you do?"

Kang An said: "Weichen and others can live in the houses outside!"

At this moment, Lin Bao had already come to Zhao Chen and saw that Kang An was talking. Lin Bao was not inconvenient to interrupt the two of them!

Zhao Chen continued: "You can live in the houses outside, but you can't disturb the people! When you leave, you must give them some money to compensate!"

Lin Bao finally could interfere in the conversation at this moment, and he smiled charmingly: "What are your Majesty and Lord Kang talking about?"

Zhao Chen smiled and said, "I am going to spend the whole night in Changchun Temple today. Xiaolinzi, you will accompany me. As for Lord Kang and other guards, you must live in the houses outside! I tell him not to disturb the people!"

Lin Baomei smiled and said, "Your Majesty cares about the people, he is truly a saint of eternal lord!"

Zhao Chen seemed extremely happy about such praise, and laughed loudly and said, "Let's go hunting for a while. After an hour, let's go to Changchun Temple!"

*******

That night, after arriving in Changchun Temple, Zhao Chen and Wang Chongyang were alone in the room!

Wang Chongyang instructed Zhao Chen to Mengdie’s sword technique. Zhao Chen had basically memorized the 1,296 moves! But each move has a hundred changes, and it is difficult to master each change!

"As long as you can understand the process from birth to death, from death to birth, you will naturally master all the changes! You can read more Taoist books when you have nothing to do on weekdays, which will be of great help to understand sword techniques!" Wang Chongyang said.

"Disciple understands! In fact, it is not just Taoist books. Reading some other Confucian works is also conducive to understanding the sword technique of the Taoist Sect! The sages said that stones from other mountains can attack jade! Everything is like this!" Zhao Chen said.

"Yes, you're right!" Wang Chongyang said.

"Master, Lord Li Gang and Lord Li also left Hanzhong City. I was so lonely in the past! Why don't you follow me to the palace? We can talk more on weekdays, and you can give me more swordsmanship and martial arts!" Zhao Chen said.

He begged hard, but Wang Chongyang still shook his head!

Zhao Chen had no choice but to stop talking!

"Master, what disease did Kang'an's mother have had a few days ago?" Zhao Chen said.

"It's just an ordinary typhoid fever! I have been conditioned for her for a few days, and she has now recovered!" Wang Chongyang said.

"Master, when Kang An came to pick up Kang's mother, what kind of person do you think he is?" Zhao Chen said again.

"He is a filial man!" Wang Chongyang thought for a while and said.

"That's good for the most filial person! Today, he swears in front of me in the name of his mother, that there must be nothing wrong!" Zhao Chen said.

"Since he swears by his mother, it's naturally not wrong! This man is undoubtedly a filial son, so there is no need to doubt it!" Wang Chongyang didn't ask what was going on, but just followed Zhao Chen's words!

"It's so great!" An excited light appeared in Zhao Chen's eyes!
