However, why was he in such a hurry today? Housekeeper Liu was puzzled.
Housekeeper Liu said in a flattering tone, ”Young master Chu, please wait here. His Majesty is here today as a guest.”
Chu Feng smiled, but did not say anything.
After a while, the guard ran over and said, ”His Majesty has orders to summon the young master of the Chu family, Chu Feng.”
As he spoke, he looked around before his gaze finally landed on the young boy standing not too far away from him. When he saw the boy's face, the young soldier was shocked.
Why did the youth in front of him and that old and mighty general have such an imagination? He actually had that kind of domineering aura between his brows? But in the blink of an eye, he seemed to have thought of something and the doubt on his face disappeared. He gradually revealed a smile as he looked at the young man standing there silently.
Chu Feng stood there with a calm expression. After hearing the soldier's words, he couldn't help revealing a bit of suspicion on his face.
However, he did not pursue the matter and just followed the guard inside.
Before leaving, Chu Feng turned around, revealed his pure-white teeth with a smile, and gently said to the girl, ”Go back and rest! You've been on the road for so long, and you're tired too. ”
A burst of smile appeared on his face. As he turned around, his face couldn't help but flush, and he glanced at Chu Feng who was already quite far away with a bit of embarrassment.
After that, he lowered his head and walked into his own room. Chu Feng, who had a puzzled expression, could it be that it was his grandfather who wanted to see him?
Chu Feng already faintly guessed a bit of the original, but he was still not certain.
After turning the corner, they passed through the flower garden and entered the inner room. The soldier stopped at the entrance, turned around, and indicated that Chu Feng had arrived.
He then turned around and walked towards the courtyard's arch. He stood there with the long sword in his hand.
Smelling the faint ancient fragrance, Chu Feng was a bit intoxicated. He couldn't help but close his eyes and silently savor the tranquility of that moment.
He didn't know what was going on, but after smelling the faint fragrance of the Dragon's Saliva, the qi in his body started to unknowingly surge, and it seemed as if it had become much more active than before.
However, at this moment, Chu Feng knew that this was not the time to discuss about this. If the Nine-Five Supremes Ancestor were to meet him, if he were to be disregarded, what would happen?
So, Chu Feng put away his curious heart, went up a few steps, and lightly opened the door.
When he raised his head, he saw that there were also people sitting there drinking tea. That made the originally uneasy Chu Feng calm down.
Sitting next to his grandfather was the old prince, whom he had met at the dinner table that night.
On the other side, a middle-aged man who wore a dragon robe was pouring water for an old man. That made Chu Feng a bit suspicious.
He still knew that the dragon robe was the symbol of the Emperor. How could he serve others?
Chu Feng couldn't help but size up the old man in detail.
Upon closer inspection, the old man looked similar to the middle-aged man in the dragon robe, as if he understood something.
Chu Feng's arrival made the three old men who were talking to stop.
The old man who had asked His Majesty to pour water for him said, ”Is this Ming Fan's son, Chu Feng?”
Hearing that hearty voice, Chu Xiaotian smiled and said heroically, ”That's right, this is Ming Fan's son, my grandson, Chu Feng.”
As he spoke, he looked to Chu Feng with a light smile.
After hearing that sonorous and powerful voice, Chu Feng was a bit shocked.
From what Chu Feng could remember, his grandfather was always that amiable old man. However, just now, he was like a Divine Buddha from the nine heavens as he looked disdainfully at the world.
However, upon recalling that there were also people who held the title of mighty general, Chu Feng felt relieved.
A middle-aged man wearing a dragon robe walked toward Chu Feng with a smile on his face.
The middle-aged man patted Chu Feng's head and said, ”You've grown so much already. When you were young, I hugged you before.” The middle-aged man's tone was abnormally amiable, causing Chu Feng to not feel the slightest bit of the might of a ruler and he couldn't help but smile at him.
”Come, come to grandpa, let grandpa have a good look.” The old man who had asked His Majesty to pour water said.
Hearing this voice, Chu Feng looked at his grandfather with doubt.
Seeing his grandfather nod, Chu Feng walked over to the old man with slight unwillingness.
The old man held onto Chu Feng's hand and said with a bit of sadness, ”All these years, I've troubled you!” Then, she took the jade pendant from her waist and put it into Chu Feng's palm. She tightly held onto Chu Feng's delicate little hand.
The old man took out a bit of the purple-green jade ornament, which made Chu Feng a bit strange. He had never seen the medium color jade ornament before, so he couldn't help but carefully examine it when he held it.
When his grandfather Chu Xiaotian saw the jade pendant in Chu Feng's hand, his eyes revealed waves of astonishment. His already calm heart was also rippling.
Others might not know the meaning of that jade pendant, but he knew it was not only a symbol of status, but also … At this time, the old man who gave the jade ornament to Chu Feng spoke with a smile, ”Heaven's Gift, you don't have any objections, right?”
The middle-aged man helplessly smiled, shrugged, and said, ”Of course not, father!”
The old man seemed to be very satisfied with the man's attitude. He smiled and patted Chu Feng's head. That appearance really did not seem like he cared about Chu Feng.
Only then did Chu Feng feel that the old man's attitude was a bit intimate. He couldn't help but be confused as to why the old man was treating him so well!
The old man thought to himself. It had been more than ten years, more than ten years … The old man thought back to the scenes from many years ago, the scenes about Chu Mingfan, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Mingfan this child … Finally, he let out a sigh. Chu Xiaotian seemed to be affected by the old man's emotions, but he was not surprised. He smiled as he reminisced about the events that had transpired many years ago, but he could not help but feel sad.
When the old prince saw how they were acting, he could not help but mutter, ”Everything will pass, everything will go back to the past.”
Hearing this, the three old men looked at each other without speaking a word.
In the end, the Emperor broke the silence and said, ”Mingfan will return. After all, he is no ordinary person.”
Hearing his words, the three elders could not help but nod their heads as if to acknowledge his words.
When Chu Feng heard those words, he was not alarmed at the fact that his father had the identity of a cultivator.
