Traveling to Ancient Times: My Space Contains Weapons

Chapter 1573: Entering the Palace Again with Many Feelings

"Head Coach, why don't you let Mr. Chu come out and meet us? We've prepared fine wine and food, and are waiting to pay our respects to Mr. Chu."

Fat Tiger understood that these people were actually forcing him to make Chu Chen show himself.

But Chu Chen doesn't even know where he is right now, so how can he help them get Chu Chen out?

However, just as he was awkwardly arguing with them, a cough suddenly came from inside the carriage.

"Who's making such a racket outside? It's keeping me from sleeping."

"Fat Tiger, where the hell have you been?!"

Upon hearing Chu Chen's voice, everyone immediately fell silent.

Chu Chen opened the carriage door, a pistol in his hand, and stepped down without any attempt to conceal his actions. He then walked up to the group of officials, pointed the pistol at them, and said...

"What? Is it you guys who are making such a racket here, keeping me from sleeping?"

Everyone stared at the dark muzzle of the gun in Chu Chen's hand, too frightened to utter a word.

When Fatty Tiger saw that Chu Chen had finally arrived, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Brother Chen, they are officials who have come to receive you. Don't get angry, don't get angry. I know you want to kill someone when you are woken up, but they are all people of status."

Fat Tiger's words only made the others more frightened, and they all knelt down in front of Chu Chen.

"Mr. Chu, we did it unintentionally, please forgive us!"

Although they knew that Dong Shilan and Chu Chen didn't get along, if Chu Chen really acted recklessly right now and shot them all, who would they complain to?

They'd probably die in vain; gods are fighting, and they don't want to get caught in the crossfire.

Chu Chen glanced at everyone disdainfully: "Alright, get lost, I'm going back to catch up on some sleep, don't you dare bother me."

After saying that, he took Fatty Tiger and went straight to the front desk of the inn: "Innkeeper, give me a superior room."

He took out a gold bar, slammed it on the table, and headed straight for the second floor.

The innkeeper glanced helplessly at the group of officials, who were so frightened that they didn't even dare to raise their heads. He then quickly followed Chu Chen and said, "Sir, these officials have already arranged a room for you."

"They arranged it? Who knows if there are assassins inside? I'm not going to listen, I'll just piss them off, hahaha!"

After saying that, Chu Chen walked up to the second floor with an air of indifference.

Then he stopped in front of a room and kicked the door open.

The man and woman inside were immediately startled: "Who the hell is that?!"

"Get lost, I want to sleep!"

Chu Chen was now taking his roguish ways to the extreme. He stepped forward and pulled back their blankets, looking at the two naked men with a disdainful smile. "Brother, you should be selective about who you eat. You can actually stomach this kind of guy."

After his outburst, the other officials rushed over in a panic and gave the two men a long explanation.

In the end, Chu Chen didn't stay there. Instead, he stormed out with Fatty Tiger and found another inn to stay at.

The official had no choice but to return to the palace and report to Dong Shilan.

Upon hearing this, Dong Shilan immediately slammed her hand on the table and stood up: "Outrageous! Chu Chen has completely disregarded me!"

"Your Majesty, please calm down. If we act now, everything will be in vain!"

"Hmph, then let him live one more day."

After saying that, Dong Shilan angrily plopped down in a chair and waved to them, signaling them to leave.

After these officials left, they were all sweating bullets. Their emperor's temper was getting worse and worse. She would get angry and kill people at the slightest provocation. In the past year, countless eunuchs had died at her hands.

After everyone left, Dong Shilan beckoned to a young eunuch with her finger. The eunuch was so frightened that he immediately knelt on the ground, crying, "Your Majesty, spare me! Your Majesty, spare me!"

"What are you so nervous about? Come in and serve me in bed. If you do well, you won't die!"

The next morning, Chu Chen's carriage arrived at the palace gate as promised.

Dong Shilan also changed into a solemn dragon robe and sat on the Golden Palace waiting for Chu Chen's arrival.

As soon as the carriage entered the palace, Tang Yun and his entourage came into Chu Chen's sight.

They stopped the carriage and began searching the people inside.

Although Gian was furious, there was nothing he could do.

"Except for Mr. Chu, everyone else is waiting where they are."

After saying that, Tang Yun approached Chu Chen and said, "Mr. Chu, it's been a long time. How have you been?"

"General Tang, it's been a long time!"

Upon seeing this, several soldiers immediately approached Chu Chen and said, "Mr. Chu, please forgive us, but His Majesty has decreed that a body search is required!"

Tang Yun glared at the two soldiers and said irritably, "You two? You think you're worthy? I, the general, will come myself."

After saying that, he began to search Chu Chen's body, took the submachine gun from his body, and then reached down to Chu Chen's lower back.

The next moment, he released his grip and said directly to Chu Chen, "Let's go, Mr. Chu, His Majesty has been waiting for a long time."

Chu Chen smiled at Tang Yun; he would remember this kindness.

The submachine gun is just the surface; the real power lies inside his chainmail.

Two pistols, eight magazines—enough to kill Dong Shilan many times over.

Chu Chen followed Tang Yun toward the Golden Palace. Soon, they stepped over the high threshold and entered the palace.

At a glance, Chu Chen saw Dong Shilan sitting on the dragon throne. Dong Shilan was staring at Chu Chen, her eyes seemingly spitting fire.

"Sister Shilan... no, Your Majesty, it's been so long! You've become even more beautiful!"

Chu Chen walked directly toward Dong Shilan with a nonchalant expression, showing no respect whatsoever, as if they had returned to the time when they were so open and honest with each other in the Imperial Study.

Those eyes were fixed on Dong Shilan, as if they could see right through her.

This made Dong Shilan involuntarily think of their past interactions, and a blush crept onto her face.

But she was, after all, the emperor, and in just a moment, she regained her former majesty.

“Mr. Chu, it seems like it’s been a year since we last met on the day we set off for the northern desert. I didn’t expect you to become more and more unruly.”

Seeing Dong Shilan's cold words, Chu Chen was not angry: "Hehe, on the way to the expedition that day, I crossed a river with a wide wooden bridge. I didn't expect that when I won the battle and wanted to come back, I found that the bridge was gone. Isn't that strange? So it's been more than a year before I came back to visit His Majesty."

Dong Shilan frowned after hearing Chu Chen's words.

A surge of anger rose from the bottom of his heart. It seemed that he couldn't give Chu Chen any chance at all.

How could she admit to betraying her royal family in front of a group of ministers?

"How dare you, a mere Imperial Preceptor, fail to kneel before His Majesty! This is a grave offense of disrespect."
