"I will deliver three meals a day on time. You can tell me what you need. As for other things that embarrass me, I hope you don't do it."

There was a bit of apology in Song Tuicheng's eyes. His superiors had already instructed him, and he had to say some things first.

Chu Meixin's face became a little ugly, while Gu Chen nodded with a smile. "Understood."

He looked like he didn't care, and Song Ruicheng was too embarrassed to say anything, and left immediately.

As soon as he left, only Gu Chen and Chu Meixin were left in the small courtyard. There were no maids and servants, not even a sip of hot tea, it was deserted.

"This treatment is not even as good as that of ordinary cabinet disciples. Judging from Brother Song's tone just now, the Jiange may be planning to put us under house arrest for a long time."

Chu Meixin and Gu Chen entered the room, closed the door, and whispered.

Gu Chen felt that if Jian Zu wanted to monitor them, it would not be safe to speak in this room, so he deliberately replied: "We are here for peace, I hope the alliance between the Chen clan and Jiange can continue, if I am here as a hostage In exchange for mutual trust, it’s not bad.”

Seeing Gu Chen say such "inner words", Chu Meixin suddenly realized that the room was not safe, and said apologetically, "I have wronged my husband."

Gu Chen stepped forward to hold Chu Meixin's hand naturally, looking at her with affectionate eyes.

"What I'm worried about now is because of me, Jiange will not let you participate in the trial. Your talent in the way of swords is rare, if I delay you, what should you do?"

Feeling the generosity and warmth of Gu Chen's palm, Chu Meixin smiled and said, "Don't worry, Husband, what kind of person is Jianzu, how can he have the same knowledge as us juniors?"

"hope so."

Gu Chen sighed, looking helpless with the current situation.

...

In front of an ancient bronze mirror, Jian Zu, who had a childlike face and simple clothes, looked at the picture in the mirror, his emotions and anger were invisible.

It was Gu Chen and Chu Meixin in the picture, they were communicating in the room, behaved intimately, every word and deed fell into Jianzu's eyes.

There were two people standing beside Jianzu, one was Yan Shiliu, the great sage who had dealt with Gu Chen, and the other was a dwarf, with a wide body and fat body, and a kind appearance.

"It seems that the Chen clan doesn't have the courage to fight against our Jiange. Chen Zu would rather send the next chief of the Chen clan to us as a hostage than break face with us." Yan Shiliu said happily.

"Even the Xinghai Sect and the Canghai Clan can't do anything about my Jiange. The Chen Clan's foundation is not stable, and they were lucky enough to occupy a large area of ​​the Mu Dynasty's territory. How dare they start a war with us?"

"Chen Zu sent Chen Yunfei here, although it was unexpected, but within reason, it is considered a certificate of honor, right?"

said the kind dwarf.

"The Chen clan is considered a first-class force now. If they are willing to surrender to my Jiange, my Jiange can devote more energy to other places."

Yan Shiliu said cautiously, always observing Jianzu's face, lest he say something wrong.

"I'm afraid this is just Chen Zu's plan to slow down the army. Although Chen Yunfei is the young patriarch of the Chen clan, to put it bluntly, there are plenty of descendants, and he can sacrifice at any time."

The dwarf suddenly changed the topic, looking quite wary.

"It shouldn't be so, right? With the talent Chen Yunfei displayed, it's not an exaggeration to say that he has the appearance of becoming an ancestor. With such a genius, Chen Zu is willing to be an abandoned son?"

Yan Shiliu frowned slightly, he was actually a little selfish, he hoped that Chen Yunfei could survive.

After all, he was the matchmaker for Chen Yunfei, and judging by how deeply they are now as husband and wife, Chen Yunfei owes him favors.

If the Chen clan can integrate into the Sword Dynasty and become a force under the Jiange banner, Chen Yunfei will be the leader of the Chen clan sooner or later.

And relying on his relationship with Chen Yunfei, his influence on the Chen family will be huge in the future, which will help consolidate his position in Jiange!

"Grand Sage Yan is right, but think about it carefully, wouldn't it be more frightening for a person who has the appearance of becoming an ancestor to come to my Jiange alone?" The dwarf said meaningfully.

"What does Grandmaster Di mean?"

Yan Shiliu was a little dissatisfied in his heart, but on the surface he was still extremely polite.

This Grandmaster Di was originally just a master craftsman in the crafts refining hall, and his status was much lower than his own, but recently he became a popular person beside Jian Zu.

Because the Chengai he unearthed with one hand provided Jiange with a new weapon with overwhelming power, and made all the forces look ashamed on the battlefield. Jian Zu was extremely satisfied with him.

He dare not offend a person who is in the limelight casually.

"Now my Jiange's strength is far superior to that of the Chen clan. If we send troops, it will be a great victory. The recruiting of Chu Meixin was just an excuse to send troops. Who would have thought that Chen Yunfei would dare to follow?"

"Why did he come here? Is he really going to use himself as a hostage to consolidate the alliance between the two parties? It would be great if that's the case, but we're afraid that if we believe so, the Chen family will hide their strength behind their backs and seize the time to digest the gains from the Mu Dynasty. "

"What if the Julin tribe and the Longxi tribe also join the Chen tribe?"

Di Zongshi's words were astonishing, and Yan Shiliu's face changed slightly. "These two tribes are so proud that they won't..."

Yan Shiliu shut up while talking. Judging from the current situation, this possibility is not impossible!

"The people and horse tribes can surrender to the Chen tribe, why can't the Julin tribe? If all the major tribes of the herdsman tribe surrender to the Chen tribe, then the gap in strength between the Chen tribe and ours will be greatly reduced. Even with the investment of new weapons, If you want to defeat the Chen Clan, you have to pay a big price."

"Although it seems dangerous that Chen Yunfei came to my Jiange, if we kill him easily, we will definitely gain a reputation of treachery and be easily attacked by all parties."

"Maybe he was betting that his ancestors cherished the feathers and would let him go, so he made a dangerous move."

"If that's the case, with such extraordinary courage and proud talent, if you don't get rid of it as soon as possible, it will be a big problem sooner or later!"

Grandmaster Di made sense, and Yan Shiliuyi didn't know how to refute it.

He also didn't dare to speak more for Chen Yunfei, for fear of appearing to be selfish.

After the two expressed their opinions, they all looked at Jianzu.

It was Jian Zu's intention to put Chen Yunfei and Chu Meixin under house arrest. Now that they have arrived, they have already made a preliminary judgment. Their life and death depended on Jian Zu's thought.

"Even if Chen Daolin really has the heart to surrender, Mu Chao's rich spiritual mineral resources are still not as good as those in his own hands in the hands of others!"

Jianzu's face was rigid, and after he said just this one sentence, the two immediately understood what he meant!

Regardless of whether the Chen clan sincerely submits or delays the attack, only those who really eat are their own!

Yan Shiliu secretly sighed, it seems that Chen Yunfei's life is doomed, it's a pity for his previous intentions.
