Chapter 0190 King Yàn
Not long after, a man who looked like a waiter approached. Huang Yao quickly stepped forward and said a few words respectfully, then returned to Niu Yuanping and said,:
"I am not allowed to enter the inner palace at will without an order. Master Niu, please follow the palace attendants to see Lord Yan." Niu Yuanping nodded and responded lightly:
"I understand." Then, Huang Yao left, and he continued walking forward with the palace attendant whose name he didn't even know.
While walking, I looked at the Yan Palace carefully. I originally thought that the Xingting Court was grand enough, but now after seeing this palace of the Yan Kingdom, I suddenly had a feeling.
The Criminal Court is like an ant in front of the palace! The two are really small compared to the big one. When you are here, if there is no one to guide you, you will probably get lost.
I couldn't help but think to myself:
"It seems that the mission assigned by the dragon girl is not that easy to accomplish..." Even if you have a map in hand, you want to find the black dogs on the twelve demon-killing barrier formations in such a huge palace.
Skeletons are really no easy task.
What's more, the position of the formation eye marked on the map was inferred by the dragon girl Yu Yixue based on the layout of the palace... If there was an error in the inference, it would be a thousand miles away.
Besides, I'm not sure how long King Yan will allow him to stay in the palace. Therefore, this task is not easy to accomplish.
You can only take your time and take it one step at a time. Niu Yuanping is not in a hurry. He decided to act at his own pace.
The more difficult the task is, the greater your value is in Yu Yixue's eyes and the safer you are. The more time you can buy to find a way to escape and regain your freedom, the more time you have!
At this moment, he put his thoughts back and walked forward behind the palace attendant. As he moved, Niu Yuanping silently observed the layout of the palace.
I saw the Jade Palace and the Purple Gold Palace, one after another. The eaves at the corners of the palace are lined up in rows. The wide roads lead directly to the Silver Tower and the Golden Pavilion.
While the red fans were opening and closing, pairs of maids Jiao'e walked slowly and calmly. On the Orchid Terrace of the Gui Palace, staring at the dazzling objects everywhere.
The embroidered pillars with red couplets are surrounded by fragrant wind and surrounded by peonies. The floor-to-ceiling windows engraved with roses are vaguely obscured by the curtains inlaid with jade shafts. There is a figure of a noble lady, gently swinging her fan, standing by the window and looking out.
look.
They may be full of curiosity about Niu Yuanping, who has just entered the palace. Niu Yuanping followed the palace waiter and continued to move forward. After a while, a balcony appeared directly in front of him.
The gentle wind blew gently over the sill, causing the beaded curtains and curly seals on the balcony to flutter and dance. Under the balcony, there were grass and poplar branches spread all over, and gardeners carefully watered and cultivated them, and the water vapor evaporated into mist.
After climbing up the stairs, the palace hall appeared in front of them. Niu Yuanping was led by the waiter and walked in slowly.
On both sides of the corridor in the main hall, there are beauties in feathers, scattering flowers with their hands, laying out a fragrant carpet. Stepping on the petals and walking through the corridor, there is a spacious courtyard, where there are maids in colorful clothes, holding five-color round fans, servicing the nobles.
Enjoy the cool breeze with the fragrance.
Many civil servants and dignitaries were sitting or standing in the main hall. Clever boys and girls stood on the jade steps.
On the high platform stood military commanders, princes, princesses, princes-in-law... In front of the copywriters, scholars and pen clerks sat, and beside the emperor's throne stood maids.
You don't need to think about this formation to know that it is the palace of the royal family. Now that you have completely entered the hall of Prince Yan's palace, Niu Yuanping quickly raised his head and looked up the hall.
At the top of the jade steps, on the dragon bed in the palace, there was a figure sitting upright. He was wearing a royal robe and an imperial crown on his head.
The bright yellow robe is embroidered with the pattern of dragons rising from the sea. Under the turbulent golden waves at the corners of the robe, the sleeves are slightly fluttered by the fragrant wind.
His face is kind and has the appearance of an elder. Although he is rumored to be in his fifties, he does not look very old.
The eyebrows are lightly drooped at the corners of his eyebrows, his pupils as black as ink jade are shining with warm brilliance, and his plump face reflects the morning sun. He is not angry but has majesty, and is innately noble.
He is the eighth-generation ruler of the royal family of the Great Yan Kingdom, Yan Huanren. The palace attendant who led the way took the lead in stepping forward and bowed to report:
"Your Majesty, the King of Yan, wishes to pay an audience to the demon-slayer Niu Yuanping." Yan Huanren hummed slightly, then set his sights on Niu Yuanping.
He looked at the handsome demon-slayer up and down. Then he asked:
"Are you the one who first reported the rebellion to Qi Fei, the acting director of the Demon Suppression Department?" Hearing the question from the king of a country, Niu Yuanping stepped forward, gave a brief salute, and then responded calmly:
"That's right." Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, an unknown person on the high platform next to him suddenly stared at him and shouted angrily:
"How brave! You actually don't kneel down! How brave!" Upon hearing this, Niu Yuanping frowned.
Although he has been in this world for so long, he rarely kneels and kowtows to others.
I always feel that there is gold at the knees of a man. If he can kneel down easily, he will not kneel down. He will hold his hands in the palm of his hand, or at most bend down for a moment. That’s all he wants. Why are you so over the top?
Besides, the purpose of his coming to the palace was not to gain any important position...it was just to complete the mission.
After all, I still don't want to deal too much with these gangsters. But then I think about it. If I want to be qualified to stay in the palace in a short time, I really have to leave a good place for King Yan.
It only takes a little impression... Besides, since others have already raised it and are trying to find fault with him... it's not easy to get away with it.
Forget it! Just kneel down, you won’t lose a piece of meat. So, he saluted King Yan again on the dragon bed and said:
"I come from a rural background and don't know the etiquette of the royal palace. Please forgive me." After saying that, he continued to speak:
"I respect His Majesty King Yan very much and am willing to serve His Majesty with all my loyalty. Otherwise, I would not risk my life to come here and expose Qi Fei's rebellion. I will now bow down to you with the highest respect." He said with some flattery.
of smooth speaking.
After finishing these words, Niu Yuanping knelt down towards the throne. Recently, he has really knelt down a bit frequently... In order to survive, he knelt down to flatter the Dragon Girl Yuyi Xue.
Now, in order to gain more opportunities for myself, I could only kneel down and salute King Yan. In the final analysis, it was because I was controlled by evil spirits... I had to do some things that I was unwilling to do.
If you can be free, then naturally the sky is high enough for birds to fly, and the sea is wide enough for fish to jump! Who has nothing to do to flatter these royal families?
There is no other way, for the sake of the future, I can only accept some grievances for the time being. Niu Yuanping also thinks it doesn't matter. Only a man who can bend and stretch is a true husband!
At this moment, Yan Huanren, the king of Yan in the throne, saw that he finally knelt down to salute, and nodded with satisfaction. He waved his hand and said:
"It doesn't matter, you are the hero who first accused Qi Fei of rebelling. No need to be too polite, just stand up and speak!" Niu Yuanping responded:
Chapter completed!
