As the old eunuch's voice sounded, the next moment, Emperor Zhou walked in from the door, followed by an old eunuch.
The Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty wore a yellow robe and a golden crown on his head, walking like a dragon and walking like a tiger, full of majesty.
"Meet the Emperor."
Uncle Zhu quickly knelt on the ground.
"My daughter has met her father." Princess Ning'an also knelt down to salute, but Emperor Zhou stepped forward to support her and said, "There is no need for this."
Then, Emperor Zhou said to Uncle Zhu, "Get up too!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Uncle Zhu stood up.
Emperor Zhou held Ning An's hand, looked at it, and said distressedly, "My father was going to see you yesterday, but you also know that there are many state affairs and there is no need to delay."
"Ning'an, how have you been this year?"
"I haven't seen you for almost a year. You've lost so much weight. Is it because the food at Jixia Academy doesn't suit your taste? Why don't you go when you come back this time and stay with me in the palace from now on?"
Ning An smiled and said, "I'm living a good life. Father, you don't have to worry about your daughter. I haven't finished my studies yet. I told my master that I will return to Jixia Academy after the matters here are settled."
"Father, you should pay more attention to your health. Look, there are gray hairs on your temples."
"If there are too many state affairs that you can't handle, you can ask your eldest brother and second brother to help you."
"By the way, father, my daughter brought you a gift."
Ning An took out a white tiger cloak from the space ring and said, "A few days ago, the senior brothers from Jixia Academy hunted a spiritual tiger, so I asked them to get the tiger skin and made it for my father with my own hands.
A cloak, would you like to try it on?"
The Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty put on a white tiger cloak, which was neither too big nor too small and fit just right.
"Yes, I like it very much. Ning'an, you are thoughtful." Emperor Zhou laughed happily.
"As long as you like it." Ning An handed Emperor Zhou a space ring again and said, "I know that my father also likes ancient scriptures, and it happens that Jixia Academy has a lot of them. It's a pity that Master doesn't allow me to bring the originals with me.
Go, I have to take the scriptures
I copied the contents by hand, and I hope my father won’t dislike it.”
"As long as it is a gift you give me, no matter what it is, I like it. Who taught your daughter?"
Emperor Zhou pinched Ning An's cheek and said lovingly, "Come on, tell me father, what have you learned in Jixia Academy these days?"
Emperor Zhou took Lin'an and sat down in the courtyard.
Ning An then told the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty what had happened to her in the Jixia Academy in the past year. Of course, she only focused on the key points. If the details were too detailed, she would probably not be able to finish them in a few days or nights.
Ning'an would tell some interesting stories from time to time, making the Emperor of Zhou laugh heartily.
After Ning'an finished speaking, the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty also talked about some recent events in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Time flies as father and daughter talk.
In the blink of an eye, an hour passed.
Emperor Zhou saw that the atmosphere was about to end, so he put away his smile and said, "Ning'an, you haven't been back for a long time. My father misses you. Our father and daughter are finally reunited today. There is one thing I want to tell you."
Ning An smiled and said, "What a coincidence, I also have something to tell you."
"Oh? Then you say it first." After Emperor Zhou finished speaking, he waved his hand and said, "Go down!"
At that moment, Uncle Zhu and the old eunuch left quickly.
Ning An put away his smile and said, "Father, I was attacked and killed on my way back."
"What?" Emperor Zhou changed his face in surprise and said angrily, "Why didn't Zhu Gan report such a big thing to me? What does he do for food!"
Ning An said, "Father, don't blame Uncle Zhu. I didn't let him say it."
"Ning'an, what is going on? Please tell me carefully." Emperor Zhou was still angry and said, "Anyway, no matter who dares to touch my daughter, I will not let him go."
"Father, please don't be angry. Didn't my daughter come back intact?" Ning An then told the story of the assassination on the road.
Especially about the encounter with the blood demon in Feilai City, Ye Qiu came to help and killed the blood demon, she described it vividly and vividly.
She did this because she wanted Ye Qiu to leave a good impression on her father.
However, she didn't mention a word about some of the more intimate things between her and Ye Qiu. .??.
After hearing this, Emperor Zhou's face became serious.
"It's strange, we have no enmity with Daleiyin Temple, why would the Holy Monk of Lingshan send someone to kill you?"
When Ning An heard this, he felt a little helpless. He had said so many good things about Ye Qiu just now, but his father didn't listen to a single word. He only remembered that the holy monk from Lingshan sent someone to assassinate her.
Emperor Zhou continued, "Ning'an, you are the smartest among my children. Please help me analyze what the Holy Monk of Lingshan wants to do."
Ning An replied, "If my guess is correct, the Holy Monk of Lingshan sent people to kill me to prevent my father from recruiting a son-in-law."
The Emperor of the Great Zhou frowned and said, "He is a monk, and he is still far away in the Western Desert. Why is he interfering in our affairs in the Great Zhou?"
"Yes, he wanted to come to Dazhou to teach the Dharma, but I rejected him."
"But because of such a thing, there is no need to assassinate you and offend our great Zhou, right?"
Ning'an said, "My daughter guesses that the purpose of the Holy Monk of Lingshan is not to spread the Dharma. His purpose is most likely Zhongzhou."
"Zhongzhou?" Emperor Zhou wondered.
Ning An said, "He may have assassinated his daughter in order to blame Da Wei or Da Qian, thereby provoking a war in Central Continent."
Emperor Zhou's brows furrowed even more tightly, "He is a Buddhist, what good will it do him to start a war in Central Continent?"
Ning'an said, "After I came back, my daughter thought about it carefully. I guessed that the Holy Monk of Lingshan might have formed an alliance with Dawei or Daqian."
The Emperor of Zhou narrowed his eyes and said, "Are you saying that Wei or Da Qian are going to go to war with us, Da Zhou?"
Ning'an nodded and said, "I'm afraid Central Continent will soon fall into war."
"Then which country do you think the Holy Monk of Lingshan will support?" Emperor Zhou asked.
"Da Wei." Ning An's tone was affirmative.
The Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty wondered, "Why is it the Wei Dynasty and not the Qian Dynasty?"
Ning'an said, "Although Emperor Daqian is young, he has the appearance of a wise king. The civil servants and military generals are all convinced of him. With the support of the God of War family, it will be difficult for the holy monks of Lingshan to form an alliance with Daqian."
"But Da Wei is different."
"The King of Wei has been trying to unify Central Continent for so many years, but Jin Bingyun, the Great Wei State Advisor, did not support him, which made him angry. If there is an opportunity to unify Central Continent, he will never miss it."
The Emperor of Zhou Dynasty said, "The holy monk of Lingshan wants to cooperate with the King of Wei. I'm afraid Jin Bingyun won't agree."
"She will definitely not agree, but what if they come hard?" Ning'an said, "The Holy Monk of Lingshan is the third strongest person in the Shenglong Ranking. Jin Bingyun is no match for him."
"It's just that my daughter hasn't figured it out yet. What is the purpose of Lingshan Holy Monk doing this?"
"But I believe that he is definitely not trying to spread the law. There must be a bigger conspiracy."
"Father, you need to send people to pay attention to Wei's movements. In addition, secretly order the border soldiers to be ready for war at any time, just in case."
Hearing this, Emperor Zhou's heart sank.
If Ning'an's speculation is correct, then Central Continent will soon be engulfed in war.
"I will arrange those things myself, Ning'an, I also have something to tell you."
The Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty said, "I discussed with your great-grandfather and decided to let Ye Changsheng be our Prince Consort of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
"You have always been an obedient child, I doubt you will object..."
Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, Ning An suddenly stood up and said, "I object!"
