Chapter four hundred and seventy-seven: Zhou envoys used troops to restore Qiguan, and King Ming personally rescued the Jin clan.
Give me a big gift?
Li Luo'er's bright eyes lit up when she heard this, and became even brighter than the stars in the sky.
"Why is this so embarrassing? Brother Pan spends too much money..." The girl said with a reserved look on her face and a broken voice, "I wonder what kind of treasure it is? Well, I'm a little curious."
After speaking, she lowered her head slightly, revealing the fine hair on the back of her swan-like slender pink neck, which seemed a little ashamed. But her ears were as white as jade, without a trace of redness.
Pankang wanted to reach out and touch her neck, but he just wanted to.
Li Luoer's demeanor, which looked so bitchy in Jiang Yao's eyes, was doubly cute in Pan Kang's eyes.
This is a matter of vision, and Pankang is not to blame.
This noble and proud man took out a moon topaz box. The moon topaz box was extremely ancient, with four ancient seals of the Wu clan carved on it: the treasure of the Chu Palace.
Judging from the age of this jade box and the text, it is definitely not the Chu Kingdom that has a history of less than 20 years, but the Tianchu Immortal Dynasty in ancient times.
This is not Pan's family heirloom, but one of the treasures Pankang found based on his memory after he recovered his past life memory. It is something left behind by his previous life.
In his previous life, he spent a lot of money to suppress the Six-Fingered Fierce Evil, using the Jiuding artifact to decompose the Six-Fingered Fierce Evil and suppress it. However, in the war to suppress the Six-Fingered Fierce Evil, Dachu suffered great losses and was unable to recover, and was usurped by the Yang family.
And he himself, because he suppressed the six-fingered evil and was the last emperor of Chu, was contaminated by the great cause and effect, which affected the reincarnation of heaven and became a cause and effect immortal.
Within the Liuhe between heaven and earth, calculations from ancient times to the present, the number of cause and effect is five, the world of mortals is nine, and the total number is nine to five.
He Pankang is one of them.
Otherwise, how could he have cultivated to the ninth level of transcending tribulations at the age of more than sixty?
Pankang opened the Dao pattern restriction on the Yue Huang jade box and handed it to Fairy Luo, "Take a look."
Seeing Pankang being so solemn, Li Luoer suddenly became a little excited.
It must be very valuable!
She opened the jade box slowly and unhurriedly, and couldn't help but be surprised. Inside the jade box was a half-circle jade seal with a phoenix button.
This jade seal is different from ordinary jade seals. It is not real jade, but the skeleton of an ancient insect. This ancient insect turned out to be a powerful divine Gu in ancient times.
What's even more special is that the Feng Niu Semi-circular Bone Seal carries an extremely ethereal pure yin aura. Li Luoer only felt it for a moment, and his whole mind felt extremely comfortable.
Not only that, this bone seal with pure yin charm also contains powerful magic power. As soon as Li Luoer sensed it, he knew that the bone seal has three main magical uses.
The first is the attack magic weapon. The attack power is very powerful, definitely more than the attack of the Great Sage. The stored power seems to be quite sufficient, so it should be used more than once.
The second is the protective magic weapon. The protective power is also very powerful, surpassing the seventh-level protective array disk or even the seventh-level protective array.
The third is the space magic weapon, and it is a life space, which can carry living bodies.
This turned out to be an acquired treasure.
When Li Luoer opened the bottom of the seal, he saw eight words: Phoenix Flying, Heavenly Witch Kun Bao.
The phoenix flies, the witch Kunbao!
Li Luoer's heart suddenly brightened, and he asked in shock: "Is this the Queen's Seal of the Ancient Chu Immortal Dynasty?"
"I didn't expect that Junior Sister also knew about the Ancient Chu Immortal Dynasty." Pan Kang said with a smile, "Yes, this is the Queen's Seal of the Ancient Chu Immortal Dynasty. It can only be used by women, and they must be women who have entered Taoism. Junior Sister is just suitable."
"The name of this treasure is the Witch Queen's Seal. It can be used to attack or defend, and it is also a life space. In ancient times, the Queen of Chu used it to control the Immortal Palace, issue decrees, and even give orders to the Immortal Court when necessary."
"The magical thing about this thing is that it can store your magic power and the magic power of other women. It is the treasure of Kunzang. The only treasures similar to it in the world are the Demon Queen's Seal, the Demon Queen's Seal, and the Queen's Seal.
"
"I will temporarily give this thing to my junior sister for protection. A hundred years later, if we are not destined to be together, my junior sister can return this thing to me."
It is obvious that the Witch Queen's Seal is not only the treasure of the queen of ancient Chu, but also the treasure of the queens of other ancient Wu clan dynasties. It is not so much a thing of ancient Chu as it is a thing of the Wu clan.
Li Luoer suddenly felt that this Fang Fengxi was as heavy as a mountain and she really wanted it!
This treasure is so good.
The question is, is this a betrothal gift?
Once you get married, do you have to get married?
Just like on earth, if you regret a marriage, you have to return the bride price?
Li Luo thought for a moment, and since Pankang didn't explicitly say it was a "betrothal gift" or "betrothal gift," he would just pretend to be confused and accept the treasure first.
If you don’t want to marry in the future, how can you return it? Or...
My father would definitely call me stupid if I didn't want such a good treasure.
"Such a precious treasure... Then I have to thank Brother Pan." Li Luoer accepted Pan Kang's gift with a smile.
Pankang smiled nonchalantly and said: "Wu Houxi can be blessed by the luck of the dynasty. If Chu unified the world and established an immortal dynasty, Wu Houxi would be even more powerful."
"Since Junior Sister Luo has accepted this treasure, she will be as prosperous as Da Chu."
This means that the stronger Da Chu is, the greater the effect of your treasure will be, so you must stand with Da Chu.
Li Luoer immediately understood and said: "Although Emperor Zhou is my lord, Brother Pan is me... Well, I have Brother Pan in Chu State, and he is like my home country."
After receiving such a valuable treasure, of course I had to say some heart-warming words.
Pankang was very satisfied with Li Luoer's words, "Junior Sister Luo's words show that I, Pan Daoan, have not misjudged the person."
"Junior sister is an exquisite and wonderful person. I had a night chat with my junior sister tonight, which made me happy and I benefited a lot."
Li Luo'er also had a touch of joy and chanted in a manly voice: "The gentlemen of the Chu Palace are like jade, and the Wu family is unparalleled in the world. The heroes of the ages are so similar, and there are many men in the world who are healthy."
"My little sister will give this poem to Brother Pan. I hope that Brother Pan will show off his royal ambitions and succeed in his hegemony. He will unify the witchcraft domain as soon as possible and defeat the Qing Dynasty!"
After the girl finished speaking, she raised her fair and picturesque face to look at Pan Kang, her eyes shining brightly, "What you said under the moon makes me happy too."
"Okay!" Pan Kang couldn't help stroking his hands and raising his eyebrows, "Unexpectedly, junior sister Luo also knows poetry, and my brother is even more impressed."
He thought for a while and chanted slowly:
"Chu Mountain is green and the Wu River is vast,
I dreamed before that Lu Li was here, so the moon was fragrant.
The time is empty and bright, the sky is strong and windy,
The taiyin is bright and clear, and the night is slightly cool.
The beautiful shadow is flying in the sky and the clear waves are shining,
The heart of the Tao is like a rock, and it will be reborn again!"
After the Prince of Da Chu finished chanting, he raised his glass and said, "This short poem is for Junior Sister Luo and also for myself."
"How good!" Li Luo'er clapped her hands and praised her, smiling brightly and her autumn eyes shining brightly.
"Brother Pan's short poem turns complex into simplicity and turns stone into gold. The virtual and the real merge with the scene. There is a tiger in the heart sniffing the rose. It is really the voice of a hero. My little sister admires it. This is poetry. My poem,
It’s really unbearable.”
Pankang laughed loudly and said: "Why is this!"
The so-called superior people appreciate each other. The two of them behaved like superior people for a while, then mentioned the matter of borrowing troops and forming an alliance, and then left the companion platform.
Pankang personally sent Li Luoer into the post house and then returned to the palace without mentioning it. He needed to make a decision on borrowing troops in the court.
Pankang is definitely a person who distinguishes between public and private matters. He will definitely not make casual decisions regarding major military and state affairs of Chu State.
After all, the Chu State is also an alliance of nobles. For matters such as lending troops to the humans for expeditions, he needs to discuss it with the ministers, even if it's just a formality.
Early the next morning, Pankang convened an impromptu regular meeting and summoned Zhou envoys Li Luoer and Li Xi to talk about the alliance and borrowing troops.
Pan Kang was the prince of the state and was in charge of the military and political affairs of the Chu state. However, Pan Kun, the Chu emperor, did not take care of much affairs and devoted himself to seclusion and enlightenment in the hope of prolonging his life.
Why do big people practice to become stronger? Of course, longevity and power. Once you have power, of course you have to live longer. Even if you have the same level of cultivation, your longevity will be different.
They are both great saints, but their longevity can differ by up to eight hundred years.
In order to prolong his life, the Emperor of Chu stayed in seclusion almost all year round. Pankang was named the Crown Prince, but he was actually the Emperor of Chu.
It is said that Emperor Chu will soon retire as the Supreme Emperor and let Pan Kang succeed him.
When the ministers of the Chu State arrived at the Daohe Hall, Pan Kang, who was in jade crown and black clothes, was already sitting in the temple. Li Luo'er and Li Xi also arrived.
After the ministers saluted, they all took their seats according to their rank and cultivation level.
Pankang said: "Zhou Chu is a natural ally, at least for now. However, it is my country Chu that is fighting against the Qing with all its strength now, and your country is far away in the central region, beyond reach, and cannot provide any help."
"Envoy of the Zhou Dynasty, I would like to know, since it is an alliance, how can the Zhou Dynasty help our country? If distant allies cannot support each other, then isn't this alliance a moon in the water?"
The alliance between Zhou and Chu would have been a great thing. However, Zhou was too far away and was not adjacent to the Witch Territory, so it was not as helpful as Sui.
At least the Sui State bordered the Chu State and could still contain the Liang State. What about the Zhou State? It had no effect.
Therefore, Pan Kang's words were by no means mere words for the occasion, but rather a question that all the Chu officials in the court wanted to ask.
Although the Zhou State is strong, it cannot help the Chu State, so what is the point of such an alliance?
So, Panli, an important minister of Chu State, immediately stood up and said:
"Your Highness's doubts are what we want to know urgently. If you only have the name of an ally, and your country is far away and is watching from the sidelines, then it will be difficult to reflect your country's sincerity."
All the ministers of the Chu State looked at the Zhou envoy expectantly, hoping that she could provide practical help and benefits on behalf of the Zhou State.
Because Chu State needs help now.
Li Luoer stood up with Zhou Jie in hand and said calmly: "I heard that noble people often forget unimportant things. Smart and virtuous people often fail to consider things. It is true."
She pointed at Li Xi and said: "Look, everyone, isn't this General Li Xi a minister of our country? General Li assisted your country in resisting the Qing Dynasty for fifteen years. All his soldiers died in battle and he killed countless Qing thieves."
Li Xi also stood up and said: "Foreign Minister Xi is no stranger to Your Highness and all of you. Back then, I led the elite soldiers from the Central Region and worked tirelessly to come to the Southern Region to fight side by side with your country. I endured the wind and rain for fifteen years and almost escaped death.
"
Li Luoer nodded, "General Li, thank you for your hard work. On behalf of the court and your majesty, I would like to thank General Li for fifteen years of resisting the Qing Dynasty and guarding the border, and fighting side by side with the Chu State."
Li Xi said: "Shenzhou and the Wu Clan have always been close, and they come from the same origin. Although I, Li Xi, are young, why don't I understand the meaning of death with cold lips and teeth? That's why I was ordered to go south to fight against the Qing Dynasty with the Chu State."
When the officials of Chu State heard this, they were stunned.
What's the meaning?
The two women sang in harmony, which meant that Zhongyu had actually been supporting the Chu State for a long time, and had been supporting the Chu State for more than ten years. It was not that they had not supported the Chu State!
Sure enough, Zhou envoy Li Luoer saluted Pankang and solemnly said:
"It is said in ancient books that just because the favor is too small, it cannot be said that the favor does not exist. Just because the good deed is too small, it cannot be said that the good deed is useless. Your Highness is a distinguished sage and you should not forget the help of our country."
"As early as more than ten years ago, our country's General Yue and General Li fought side by side with your country with the determination to die. Although they did not make great achievements, they did great work. How can you say that our country is not helpful to your country?
Woolen cloth?"
"Your Highness, how can those soldiers from Shenzhou who died fighting for the Qing Dynasty rest in peace?"
Although after the long conversation last night, Pankang had a better impression of Li Luo'er and the relationship between them became closer, he couldn't help but feel a little depressed when he heard her so clever and coquettish.
Is this okay? You really can pull it off.
A Chu Chen couldn't help but stand up and said:
"Envoy Zhou! You can't say that. More than ten years ago, the Kingdom of Zhou did not exist. General Yue and General Li fought against the Qing Dynasty. What does it have to do with your country? Are they still sent by your country?"
"The southern region resisted the Qing Dynasty at the border, and it is thousands of miles away from your country. How can their achievements in resisting the Qing Dynasty be attributed to your country?"
Li Xi immediately took out his official talisman, "Your Highness, the official title of the foreign minister is the Princess of Yanling County of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Mu of Luzhou. The hundred thousand troops who followed the foreign minister and died in Qiguan were all Zhou troops."
Li Luoer also smiled and said exaggeratedly:
"On this mission to your country, our Lord has sent the most powerful long-distance warship. Only in this way can we rescue your country's Roshui Pass in time... We have achieved a great victory in annihilating hundreds of thousands of enemy troops. Isn't this our country's aid to your country?
"
The officials of Chu State were suddenly speechless.
They originally wanted to use the alliance to get substantial support from Zhou State. However, the envoy of Zhou argued so forcefully that they had no reason.
Pankang quickly followed the trend and said: "Okay, I will just regard this as your country's support for our Chu country. But I hope that your country will give me more support from Chu."
"The Puppet Qing Dynasty has several strong reinforcements at the moment. They are aggressive and determined to win the Southern Territory. I know the thoughts of the leader of your country, but I hope she will not self-defeat her, and don't end up getting away with it and taking advantage of the Qing thieves or others."
"Envoy Zhou, please tell my Yu family cousin that the overall situation is the most important thing and let her take care of herself. Since we have formed an alliance, we must work together."
With a few words from Pan Kang, the dispute was settled and the tone was set.
"Don't worry, Your Highness. The foreign minister will definitely convey these words to my lord." Li Luo'er said, taking the opportunity to change the topic:
"Your Highness, with the Qiguan Pass lost, there is a major loophole in our Longshan defense line. If we do not recapture it in time, the Qing thieves will not only invade the Southern Territory, but also use the Southern Territory to attack your country's Tianhen defense line..."
"...The distant water cannot quench the near thirst. I sincerely ask your country to lend 200,000 troops to help our country retake Qiguan, and also help your country stabilize the Tianhen defense line..."
All the ministers of Chu State looked at each other in shock when they heard this.
What?
Is this how you formed an alliance? When you came up, you borrowed troops from Da Chu. Although Da Chu has many soldiers and generals, the defense lines are tense everywhere now. How can I lend you extra troops?
But Qiguan is indeed very important. If it is not recaptured, it will indeed be detrimental to Dachu's Tianhen defense line.
"Your Highness, if Qiguan was lost, it would be natural for the Zhou army or the Southern Region warriors to send troops to recover it. Why did they borrow troops from Chu? No matter how many soldiers there are, they are not enough!"
Panli stood up and said.
Important ministers expressed that they should not borrow troops.
The reason is always that there is a shortage of troops.
Li Luoer smiled slightly and said, "Your Highness, everyone, although the Chu army is short of troops, there is still an army that is not the Chu army, and it still has nothing to fight. How about the foreign minister borrowing this army?"
"How about the reward that your country originally gave me for rescuing Fushui Pass as a salary resource for this army?"
What she wants to borrow is, of course, the "Daoan Army" composed of women!
These soldiers and horses do not belong to the official Chu army, but they are very powerful and have no battle to fight.
More importantly, this army was organized voluntarily by the noble ladies of the Chu State to protect Pan Kang. They claimed to only obey Pan Kang's military orders, and the Chu State War Department had no jurisdiction.
"Okay. I will lend you Dao'an's army to help you retake Qiguan." Of course Pankang would not refuse Li Luoer.
"But I have one request. After the Qiguan is recovered, the Dao'an army will be stationed at the Qiguan. You are not allowed to change defenses without Da Chu's permission."
"Thank you, Your Highness, Prince!" Li Luoer couldn't help but smile and nodded without hesitation:
"Don't worry, Your Highness. After regaining Qiguan, we will let the Dao'an army stationed in Qiguan and never cross the river to demolish the bridge. Since the two countries are allies, it doesn't matter who is in the hands of Qiguan, as long as it is not in the hands of Qing thieves."
Li Xi also breathed a sigh of relief.
Done!
The ministers of the Chu State were willing to object, but the troops and horses lent were the "Dao'an Army". They had no reason to object, so they simply acquiesced and approved.
On the third day, Li Luoer and Li Xi took Pankang's orders and came to the Dao'an army camp. They successfully mobilized 120,000 female troops and marched northward day and night.
………
Just when Li Luoer borrowed troops to regain Qiguan, another major event happened in the Western Regions.
The anti-tapir battlefield in the northwest suffered a sudden and inexplicable defeat. A partial army of charming tapirs broke through the defense line, crossed the Tianhuang River with the cooperation of a traitor, and actually entered the Western Region!
The first one to bear the brunt is Jin Clan.
Although the Jin clan is known as a super powerful vassal, it has actually been in decline for a long time. Its military strength is only that of a large clan. In addition, the clan leader has been absent for a long time. How can it stop the Mei Tapir army?
As a result, the Jin army was defeated and hundreds of thousands of people were killed!
The door to the Western Region of Shenzhou is wide open!
The extremely ferocious Charming Tapir Soldiers marched straight in, rampaged through the Jin clan, and already captured Gaoyang Tiancheng, the royal city of the Jin clan!
Half of the three prefectures in Shanxi have been poisoned by charmed tapirs.
When the news came, not only the entire Western Region was in panic, but the entire Divine Continent was also alarmed.
The remaining martial lords of the Western Regions, who had already been defeated by the Ming army, had already lost all their elites. When they heard that the Charming Tapirs were heading south, they had no fighting spirit and actually fled.
Awesome!
The Charming Tapir Barbarians have invaded the Western Regions!
At this moment, the main force of the Zhou army is marching eastward to the Eastern Region, and the main force of the Shenzhou Camp is at the Taiyin Mountain defense line in the Northern Region. Where can they rescue the Western Region?
Charming tapirs are the mortal enemies of Shenzhou, they like to eat people!
At a time when the world was in panic, another shocking news suddenly came out.
King Jiang Yao of the Ming Dynasty swore an oath in Jiangshui, announced the formation of an anti-tapir camp, commanded an army of 500,000, and launched a campaign to conquer the charming tapirs! Rescue the Jin clan!
The king of the Ming Dynasty wrote: "...The hatred of Shenzhou for hundreds of years will be avenged day and night; the world is quiet and peaceful for thousands of days, and no one will hear it...The charming tapir is a bloodthirsty and ferocious man, the remnant of the ancient evil...How can I sit back and watch while the nobles of Shenzhou and the Western Regions are fenced off?
hand…"
"...Now we have sent half a million Ming cavalry to the Northern Expedition to save the Jin Dynasty and fight against the tapirs, drive away the ugly people, and punish the people for their crimes... We cannot annihilate them all, but they must also be made aware that the majesty of our Ming Dynasty is difficult to infringe, and the human race of our Divine Continent is difficult to bully..."
"...In the first year of Hongwu, King Ming, General Jiang who fought against tapirs in Fengtian..."
Jiang Yao went on a personal expedition and the news of the Ming Army's Northern Expedition came. The poor families in the world were extremely excited, but the Wu family nobles were in silence!
