Bai Yu entered the palace and reported to Concubine Yi that Hua Nu had said "two major competitions and asking for a list". Since he decided to hug Concubine Yi tightly, no matter whether the news was useful or not, it would be good to report it frequently to increase her sense of presence.
"This news is useless. It is almost as expected by the imperial court. The imperial court has made full preparations. No matter what kind of competition these envoys propose, the imperial court will accept it."
Concubine Yi sat down on the brocade couch, staring at Bai Yu with her beautiful eyes, "I heard that you entered the mansion where Hua Nu lives alone. You and Jinhua are getting married soon. There is no need to do this just to find out the news, so as not to cause trouble.
Rumors will have a bad impact on your reputation."
"Remember the Queen Mother's teachings."
Bai Yu said with a smile, "At that time, the minister only wanted to find out the information and help the imperial court triumph in the competition, but he did not consider his own reputation and completely forgot about it."
You should be rewarded for saying so... Concubine Yi was speechless for a moment and said, "The flower slave wants the list of candidates for the dynasty to fight, so just give it to her. The dynasty is the suzerain of these vassal states, so it doesn't even bother
What kind of conspiracy and tricks are you playing? If you play tricks and tricks, these vassal states will look down on you. The dynasty needs to be open and aboveboard to defeat their spirits and subdue them in the competition."
Isn't this a mistake? Bai Yu promised to give Hua Nu a list, and now that Yi Guifei has given the real list, it means that he has fulfilled his promise...Does Hua Nu also have to fulfill his promise?
It was a fertile land, and it was a pity to waste it there. Even though the flower slaves were bold in their clothes, they were not frivolous in their words and deeds. They were definitely not as casual as prostitutes. Maybe that was the dress habit of the Flower Kingdom.
Concubine Yi directly announced the candidates for the battle, "For the unrestricted competition, Yue Zun, Demon Slayer Sizheng, and my elder brother will compete; for the younger generation's competition, you, Zheng Tong's daughter Zheng Yan'er, and the three sons of the Imperial City will compete."
Ning Yi is one of the "Three Sons of the Imperial City", and the other two also have backgrounds.
One is Yin Cong, the legitimate son of the Marquis of Mingyuan. He has been fond of swordsmanship since he was a child, and he became crazy about swordsmanship. In order to concentrate on practicing swordsmanship, he gave up his title of marquis to his concubine. He even abandoned his newlywed wife and divorced in the middle of the night on their wedding night.
He ran away from his family and traveled to famous mountains and rivers, where he sought out masters from the Sword Sect and learned the art from his masters.
Another one was born in a humble family, Yang Youtian, who came from a tenant farmer's family. The tenant farmer actually rented land from the landlord's house to plant crops. He had no land of his own, and after paying the land rent, there was basically not much food left. In order to have a full meal, Yang Youtian spent many years.
When he was only thirteen years old, he went to Tianzhuiguan Pass in the Northern Wilderness alone and became a soldier. He was trained on the battlefield time and time again, crawling out of the dead again and again, and knew nothing but killing.
It is said that Ning Yi is the weakest among the "Three Sons of the Imperial City", and the disciple of Yue Zun is actually the weakest... I don't know whether this rumor is true or not.
Ning Yi, Yin Cong, and Yang Youtian were once known as the strongest young generation in the Imperial City, so they were called the "Three Sons of the Imperial City".
Why is he said to be the strongest ever? Because in recent times, Ming Wang Bai Yu has been so popular that he has overshadowed the three sons of the Imperial City and has become vaguely the number one among the younger generation of the Imperial City.
When he was in the Demon Extermination Department, as soon as he arrived at the scene of the crime, the monsters would die. According to the local people's personal witness, his method of eliminating demons was "colorful and full of tricks", just like an immortal master coming down to earth...
During the battle for the throne, Bai Yu even participated in the regicide and succeeded. Therefore, he was named Prince Ming. Being famous in the dynasty is not enough to describe it. He should be famous in the world.
Ning Yi also participated in the regicide, but was only awarded a marquis, so he was considered not the "main force" in the regicide... It must be said that the eyes of the court ministers and the people were really sharp.
, you can guess who is the "main force" in the regicide.
Bai Yu said, "Wei Chen will inform Hua Nu of the battle list. If she knows it, it means that all the envoys know it. It is obvious that these vassal states have formed an alliance and will advance and retreat together."
Concubine Yi said, "Just a few competitions may not be able to deter these vassal states that are ready to make a move. The Ai family has ordered that the gods of mountains, rivers and famous mountains and rivers come to Beijing immediately to pay homage to the new emperor so that they can see him."
good."
What else could Bai Yu say, "The Queen Mother is wise!"
Come out of the palace.
Bai Yu rode the Huohuang horse and went straight to the mansion under Honglu Temple.
When Bai Yu revealed the list of players to Hua Nu, her eyes were suspicious and she obviously didn't believe it. Wasn't this list too easy?
Bai Yu said, "You envoys want to know in advance the candidates of the Dynasty for the war. You just want to make targeted preparations, find out the flaws and weaknesses, and increase your chances of winning. But you don't know the mentality of the Dynasty's suzerain country, so you don't even bother.
Just keep it secret, I will give you the list, and I will ask you to be fully prepared."
"All right."
Hua Nu looked at him deeply and said, "If after the competition, the list is proven to be correct, Hua Nu will return to the Kingdom of Hundred Flowers to return his life to the queen, and then he will come back and follow King Ming."
Return to the Kingdom of Hundred Flowers, what if she doesn't come back? Where can I go to reason? Bai Yu said, "Actually, it doesn't have to be so troublesome. After the competition, it is proved that the list is correct, and we can do a good thing. After the flower slave returns to the Kingdom of Hundred Flowers, there will be no need to
Wouldn’t it be better to come back again?”
Hua Nu was stunned for a moment, then looked at him with resentful eyes, what did this mean?
"That's it."
Bai Yu smiled, worried that he was soft-hearted, and immediately left.
...
Thousands of miles away from the imperial city, there is a famous mountain.
Tai'a Mountain.
It is more than three thousand feet high. Due to the high altitude, the top of the mountain is covered with snow all year round.
at this time.
At noon, the sun is shining brightly.
The snow on the top of the mountain suddenly spread out in large areas without wind, forming a huge human face.
The human face opened its mouth and let out a majestic male voice, "Fellows, folks, folks near Tai'a Mountain, please pay attention. After receiving the decree from the Queen Mother, I will immediately go to Beijing to worship the new emperor. I will make a clone and cause rocks
It will roll down and be accompanied by an avalanche. This place is dangerous, please stay away as soon as possible."
In fact.
The local government has already posted notices telling people not to get close to Tai'a Mountain.
He issued the warning just in case.
If someone is not aware of the notice from the Yamen and is cutting firewood, herding cattle, harvesting vegetables, etc. near Tai'a Mountain, and is crushed to death by rocks or crushed by an avalanche, his "divine evaluation" will be affected.
It doesn't matter if one or two die, but if too many die, Tai'a Mountain will change from a famous mountain to a fierce mountain. At least he will be reprimanded by the court, and at worst his rank as a mountain god will be degraded.
"Folks, folks..."
He shouted a few more times and waited for an hour to give people time to escape. When he felt it was almost time, he started to separate.
There was only a loud "rumbling" sound, the whole Tai'a Mountain trembled slightly, rocks rolled down, and avalanches were like tsunami.
The rocks and white snow that rolled down slowly gathered together and turned into a small mountain giant. Although it was in human form, it also had the characteristics of Tai'a Mountain.
It is said to be a little giant in the mountains, but it is actually hundreds of feet tall. Every step it takes leaves "footprints as big as door panels" on the ground.
In order not to trample on houses, farmland, roads and bridges, he walked through desolate mountains and wild ridges, startling large numbers of birds and sending wild beasts fleeing for their lives.
...
Cangyun River.
underwater.
A beautiful woman with long hair that is dozens of feet long and covered in water mist is swimming quickly, like a black lightning, traveling hundreds of miles in an instant.
soon.
She came to the gathering place of Cangyun River.
Ahead is the Lanyun River.
She called to the Lanyun River, "Sister, have you received the Queen Mother's order to use your waterway to go to the capital to pay homage to the new emperor?"
soon.
A black electric light also swam in the Lanyun River. You could only see it clearly when it stopped. It was also a beautiful woman. She was wrapped in mist. She chuckled and said, "Sister, you are welcome. Come in. I have also received the Queen Mother's decree."
.”
The female river goddess of Cangyun River rolled her eyes, "Sister, are you confused? Lanyun River is your waterway and your domain. If you don't help me, how can I get in?"
The female river goddess of Lanyun River giggled, "Of course I know the rules. I just hope that my sister will ignore this and rush in, causing a mess and some embarrassment."
The female river goddess of Cangyun River snorted, "Aren't we good sisters anymore? You just want to tease me."
The female river goddess of the Lanyun River said with a grudge, "A while ago, a fishing boat capsized in this water gathering place. I wanted to rescue him, but my sister beat me to it. My sister's hands are really fast."
The female river god of Cangyun River said with a guilty conscience, "Next time something like this happens again, I'll just give it to my sister."
The female river goddess of Lanyun River shook her head and smiled without saying a word.
The female river goddess of Cangyun River bit her teeth, raised her jade hand, and made a V sign, "I will give you twice, no more. If my sister insists on not letting me borrow your waterway, it will delay my pilgrimage to Beijing."
New Emperor, if the Queen Mother is held accountable, I'm afraid my sister won't be able to explain herself to you, right?"
The female river goddess of Lanyun River frowned, "It would be boring to lift the queen mother to suppress me. Two pieces are two pieces, deal."
After saying that, she stretched out a hand.
The female river goddess of the Cangyun River also stretched out a hand, took her hand, and entered the Lanyun River without any hindrance.
When the two female river gods held hands, it was equivalent to allowing each other to enter the waterway on their side and swim freely.
...
The scene of the gods of mountains and rivers rushing to Beijing happened across the entire territory of the dynasty.
Of course, the river god is traveling under the water and is invisible to the common people.
The mountain god is on his way, which is quite spectacular. Everywhere he goes, he will cause local people to cheer and make a stir, and even worship him.
You know, generally speaking, only when the new emperor succeeds to the throne, the mountain gods and river gods will come to Beijing to worship.
For the common people, life is short, and not every generation can see such a grand occasion. Basically, it only exists in rumors. This generation can only witness it with their own eyes when the new emperor succeeds to the throne.
