I was reborn as the villain

Chen Zhimo suddenly regained consciousness and pushed the delicate body in his arms away.

Xun Liuyan looked shy but stubborn and said, "Sir, you clearly have feelings for Yan'er, so why do you have to be so self-conscious?"

Xun Liuyan felt Chen Zhimo's affection from his response just now. She knew that she still had a chance, so she felt a little happy, but she felt a little regretful that Chen Zhimo finally pushed her away.

If I continue like this, the matter will be a fait accompli and Chen Zhimo will have no choice but to marry me.

Xun Liuchen, who was hiding in the side room, also saw this scene and sighed in his heart with great regret. He almost succeeded.

Xun Liuchen also admired Chen Zhimo. If it were him, he might not be able to control himself with such a beauty in his arms.

"Your Majesty, come out!"

Chen Zhimo ignored Xun Liuyan and shouted towards the hall. He could naturally guess that what happened today was the result of Xun Liuchen and Xun Liuyan working together.

Xun Liuchen had no choice but to smile awkwardly and walked out, "Sir, this matter..."

"Your Majesty, there is no need to explain. Let me explain it clearly in front of you."

After being tricked by Xun Liuyan, Chen Zhimo thought that he would be hard to get out of this situation if he didn't explain the situation to her. Of course, he had to tell her about the situation in front of Xun Liuchen, so that Xun Liuchen wouldn't think that he disliked the royal princess.

Afterwards, Chen Zhimo organized his thoughts and explained why he could not marry the eldest princess.

The reasons Chen Zhimo gave were not based on emotion but on reality. For example, he was going to the immortal gate to practice Taoism, and he didn't know how many years it would take, and the eldest princess couldn't wait. For example, after practicing Taoism, he would live as long as the heaven and the earth, and the eldest princess was a mortal, and they were not from the same world. For example, the path to practicing Taoism was extremely dangerous, and he couldn't guarantee how long he could live, and he didn't want to implicate the eldest princess... "I'm not afraid of danger, I am willing to practice Taoism with you, and I will find a way to solve the curse of the Xun family." Xun Liuyan refused to accept Chen Zhimo's explanation after listening to it, and she said stubbornly.

Xun Liuchen fell into deep thought. He naturally knew that Chen Zhimo had hidden a lot of things, but judging from the current situation, for Xun Liuyan's happiness, he really couldn't let her marry Chen Zhimo.

If the Xun family could really practice cultivation, then it would be fine. Xun Liuyan could become a Taoist couple with Chen Zhimo. But now the Xun family is just mortals, so Xun Liuyan and Chen Zhimo are not the same kind of people.

"Sir, Yan'er can give up everything for you. Yan'er just wants to ask you, if you like Yan'er, why don't you dare to let go of the shackles in your heart and be with Yan'er? Yan'er doesn't care about danger, doesn't care about eternity, she only cares about being able to marry you in her lifetime."

Xun Liuchen stepped forward and stopped Xun Liuyan from continuing speaking with his eyes. As an emperor, he would naturally not be swayed by personal feelings. He considered many other things.

Although Xun Liuyan and Chen Zhimo can get some benefits from the marriage, it is also easy to have some risks. For example, will Chen Zhimo make enemies during his cultivation? Will Chen Zhimo really encounter danger and die? Will the enemies he made take revenge on the Shucang Kingdom? In addition, the issue of life span is indeed a problem. After much consideration, Xun Liuchen still feels that it is enough to maintain a certain distance and intimacy with the Chen family, and it is not appropriate to tie the royal family and the Chen family too closely.

After some thought, Xun Liuchen made a decision, so he tried to mediate, "My sister and you both have special identities. One represents the royal family, and the other represents the immortal sect. They each have their own missions. It is indeed not possible to talk about it from the perspective of love between children. But from a public perspective, I hope that you can reach the pinnacle of immortal cultivation and have the ability to break the curse that prevents the Xun family from cultivating immortals. The Shucang Kingdom will gain glory and the royal family will be relieved of their difficulties. From a private perspective, I hope that you can take the matter of restoring the Xun family's immortal cultivation bloodline to heart. If it can be properly resolved, lovers can finally get married, right?"

Xun Liuchen's words were reasonable and cleverly tied together the difficulties of the Xun family, the lifeblood of the country and Chen Zhimo's emotions. In fact, it was also to urge Chen Zhimo to solve this problem as soon as possible.

Chen Zhimo thought for a moment and replied, "Please give me three years, Your Majesty and the Princess. Within three years, I will do my best to find the ancestor of the Xun family and break the Xun family curse. If I cannot do it after three years, the Princess will find another beauty."

Chen Zhimo has already made a lot of concessions, which undoubtedly expresses his feelings for the eldest princess and shows that he has the eldest princess in his heart.

Chen Zhimo had some feelings for the eldest princess, and he didn't want to disappoint someone who loved him so much. He just didn't want to get too involved in personal affairs before he solved his own troubles. In three years, he thought he should be able to figure out the secrets of the world and resolve his own troubles.

When the princess heard what Chen Zhimo said, she was very happy and nodded firmly: "Sir, Yan'er is waiting for you."

"Okay, okay, that's right. Everyone is happy. I believe that everything will go smoothly for you, sir." Xun Liuchen was also very happy. This could be considered a solution.

"Your Majesty, Princess, I will be leaving soon."

"Ah! So anxious?" Xun Liuchen didn't expect Chen Zhimo to say goodbye suddenly.

The eldest princess also showed a reluctant expression.

Chen Zhimo nodded and said, "I have been delayed here for quite some time. There are still many things to deal with at the Immortal Sect. Shouldn't we start with the Xun family's affairs as soon as possible? It's time to leave."

Xun Liuchen nodded, and he didn't try to persuade him to stay. The relevant national policies had already been formulated, and he would be in charge of the subsequent implementation.

Soon Chen Zhimo left the palace and stayed at home for another two days. On the one hand, he wanted to accompany his family, and on the other hand, he wanted to make some plans for the Chen family. After that, he went to Kailing Island and stayed on the island for some time, mainly to discuss the future affairs of the sect with Qian Sanhao.

Chen Zhimo left a lot of treasures to Kailing Island this time. Although they are not supreme magic weapons, they are enough for a new small sect.

During the time Chen Zhimo was in Shucang City, he visited Zhuo Hanyi several times. His purpose was to win over the Wenjianting of Shucang Country. He also needed Zhuo Hanyi's help on some matters.

Zhuo Hanyi was also happy to cooperate with Chen Zhimo, a popular figure in the court and a newcomer in cultivating immortals. As long as it did not violate the general principles of the Questioning Heaven Mirror and did not cause investigation from above, Zhuo Hanyi covered up many secrets for Chen Zhimo. Of course, he also gained a lot of benefits from Chen Zhimo. It was just a matter of each getting what they needed.
