Red Moon Immortal Capital, a main hall where the Ministry of Etiquette works.
Tang Xiaoyi, no, he is now named Tang Zhengqi. He is sitting at an official desk, looking at an appointment document, frowning slightly.
An official from the Ministry of Rites next to him said: "Master Tang, don't be sad. Although you have made the greatest contribution this time, you are still an outsider after all."
"Why am I an outsider? I brought that old guy's head back. Even if I can't be promoted to the Minister of Rites, at least let me be the Minister of Rites? I was so busy, but in the end, someone else was
Picked peaches?" Tang Zhengqi said angrily.
"They said you were just lucky. The former Minister of Rites was bitten into a zombie and then killed by someone else. You just took advantage of it, so..." the official said.
"So what if it's luck? Isn't it just merit? I was about to be promoted to the right minister of the Ministry of Etiquette, but I was delayed in going to the Black Coffin Secret Realm. As a result, I made great contributions in the Black Coffin Secret Realm. Not only was I not promoted, but I was not even promoted to the Ministry of Etiquette.
The position of the Right Assistant Minister has also been lost? This is too unfair." Tang Zheng said angrily.
"This time, it is the Empress's relatives who have taken the position of Minister of Rites. Secondly, the two ministers of the Ministry of Rites are also relatives of the Empress. Unless they die, otherwise, don't think about it. Just be the doctor of the Ministry of Rites and accept your fate."
The official from the Ministry of Rites said.
"Shang Shu, all the ministers have died, so it's my turn? When will they die?" Tang Zheng said angrily.
At this moment, an angry voice came: "Who wants us to die?"
But they saw a group of officials walking into the hall. The three leaders had extremely dark faces.
"Master Shangshu, Master Minister, why are you here? You heard me wrong. I said these three of you will live forever." Tang Zhengqi's face froze and he immediately made amends.
The three of them glared at Tang Zhengqi fiercely, and then said: "Mr. of the Ministry of Rites, prepare an honor guard now to follow us to a place to pay homage to an extremely noble person."
"Where are you going? Who are you meeting? What specifications do you want?" Tang Zhengqi asked curiously.
"The highest standards. As for who and where, you don't care." said the Minister of Rites.
"Okay!" Tang Zhengqi said with a blank look on his face.
Tang Zhengqi made preparations quickly, and all the honor guards had to notify, and they became busy for a while.
The Minister of Rites and the two ministers stood in the main hall, looking at Tang Zhengqi's busy activities with a sneer on his face.
"Brother, Tang Zhengqi actually cursed us to death behind our backs. We can't let him go." A minister from the Ministry of Rites said in a low voice.
"You think you have made a little merit, and you want to compete with us? How ridiculous. No matter how much credit he makes, he can only follow behind us. This mission is extremely important, and all officials of the fourth rank and above of the Ministry of Rites need to go there.
To show solemnity, I had no choice but to bring them with me. Just wait, wait until we come back this time and see how I deal with him." The Minister of Etiquette sneered.
The two ministers of etiquette both sneered.
Soon, Tang Zhengqi had prepared everything. Then, he followed a group of people and flew out of the Red Moon Immortal City and headed straight for the South China Sea. After flying for several days, they finally arrived at an island shrouded in fog in the South China Sea.
"In the Hongyue Immortal Dynasty, the Minister of Rites, together with all the important officials of the Ministry of Rites, came to ask for an audience with the seniors on the orders of the Immortal Emperor and the Empress." said the Minister of Rites.
For a while, all the officials of the Ministry of Rites were waiting, but they saw that the island was quiet, and no one seemed to pay them any attention.
Everyone looked confused for a while, and looked at the Minister of Rites and the left and right ministers. The three looked at each other, and they all showed a look of worry.
"Tang Zhengqi, please take people down to see the seniors on the island." said the Minister of Rites.
Tang Zhengqi said with a confused look on his face: "Sir, who is below? How should I kowtow?"
"Don't worry about who it is, just do it." said the Minister of Rites.
"Why don't you go?" Tang Zhengqi asked.
"If I want you to go, just go, don't talk nonsense." The Minister of Rites shouted coldly.
"Yes!" Tang Zhengqi said with a depressed look.
He keenly felt that there was great danger in this trip. The seniors on the island were definitely not good, but he was appointed and could not resist. He could only fly down with a group of his trusted subordinates.
As soon as he entered the foggy island, Tang Zhengqi immediately knelt down.
"Young man Tang Zhengqi, I have been ordered to come to see my senior." Tang Zhengqi knelt down and kowtowed.
He felt that it was not strange to pay homage to many people. Isn't it just a matter of kneeling down? He didn't lose a piece of meat and had a low posture, so he couldn't go wrong. His subordinates also knelt down.
There was still no movement on the island, but the fog was thick and it was difficult to see inside.
Tang Zhengqi stood up, took a step forward, and bowed down again: "Young man Tang Zhengqi, I have been ordered to come and see my senior."
The faces of Tang Zhengqi's subordinates froze. Is this a step-by-step obeisance? Mr. Tang is trying too hard. Even when facing the Immortal Emperor of any Immortal Dynasty, there is no need to do this. This is not the way to lose the Red Moon Immortal.
Chao's face?
Of course, they had no choice but to imitate Tang Zhengqi.
Tang Zhengqi doesn't care so much. What does it have to do with embarrassing Hongyue Xianchao? He is just an undercover agent.
He walked towards the depths of the island step by step and bowed, which made the faces of the waiting ministers of the Ministry of Rites twitch. They all felt that Tang Zhengqi was embarrassed and wasted their time. The Minister of Rites even urged him, but Tang Zhengqi ignored him and continued to bow step by step.
, extremely pious.
Finally, after Tang Zhengqi left for an hour, the heavy fog on the island suddenly billowed up. Then, the billowing white fog slowly turned into blood red, which looked extremely terrifying.
"Young man Tang Zhengqi, I have been ordered to come and see my senior." Tang Zhengqi once again bowed and bowed to the ground.
At this moment, an extremely terrifying aura emanated from the island, causing everyone outside to tense up, as if they were being struck by a sword.
Suddenly, an old voice came from the fog: "Did Lou Yujing arrange to come? Why didn't he come by himself?"
Immediately, the eyes of the Minister of Rites outside the island lit up, and he immediately said: "Senior, the Red Moon Immortal Dynasty has encountered a disaster. The Immortal Emperor cannot go away, so he can only ask me to come and ask the senior to come out. This is the letter prepared by the Immortal Emperor.
"
With a whoosh, the letter in the hand of the Minister of Rites was sucked into the blood mist by a huge force.
"Lou Yujing is getting more and more presumptuous. He sent you little guys just to invite me out? What do you think of me? Someone looking for death." There was an icy coldness in the old voice.
With a cry, countless blood mist suddenly condensed and turned into blood-colored spears, rushing straight towards everyone. Everyone's hair suddenly stood on end, and they were horrified.
"I am the Minister of Etiquette of the Red Moon Immortal Dynasty, you can't kill me!"
"Do you want to be an enemy of the Red Moon Immortal Dynasty?"
"Don't kill me!"
…
Everyone suddenly turned around and ran away in horror. However, the speed of the bloody spear was so fast that it did not give everyone a chance to react. With a bang, it pierced almost everyone's eyebrows. In an instant, almost everyone died on the spot.
, the soul will be destroyed.
The next moment, everyone suddenly exploded and turned into blood mist all over the sky, and was swallowed up by the blood mist on the island.
The Minister of Rites, the left and right ministers of the Ministry of Rites, countless officials of the Ministry of Rites, and the ceremonial guards were all wiped out.
Only Tang Zhengqi and others who were kneeling on the ground survived by luck. It was not because they were too strong, but because these bloody spears did not attack them.
The scalps of Tang Zhengqi's subordinates exploded. They were all glad to have followed Tang Zhengqi. Tang Zhengqi was more knowledgeable. What does it mean to kneel down? It can save your life!
In the conscience of heaven and earth, Tang Zhengqi didn't rush to get up and run away just now. He was so frightened that his legs were weak. He also didn't expect that the seniors on this island were so terrifying. They would kill everyone at the slightest disagreement.
ah.
At this moment, he didn't dare to move and could only wait patiently.
The blood mist everywhere rolled rapidly, and then, a figure slowly walked out of the billowing blood mist. It was an old man with a withered face.
The old man was dressed in red and had blood-red hair. There was a condescending indifference in his eyes as he glanced at the group of people kneeling on the ground.
"What's your name? Why are you so generous?" the old man in red said solemnly.
"The villain Tang Zhengqi is the doctor of the Ministry of Rites of the Red Moon Immortal Dynasty. The villain does not know the identity of the senior, and was dragged here today. The villain only knows that the senior's identity is extremely noble. The villain imagines that only such a great gift can be worthy of it.
A villain's respect for his seniors. If you don't do well, please forgive me." Tang Zhengqi immediately flattered him.
The old man looked arrogant, but he seemed to be extremely satisfied with Tang Zhengqi's words and said: "You have a bit of an eye for him, he is a talent that can be made."
"Thank you for the compliment, senior." Tang Zhengqi said immediately.
"Go back and tell Lou Yujing to wait. I will go find him in three days." The old man said coldly.
"Ah? Three days? Senior thinks too highly of me. I won't have time to fly back in three days!" Tang Zhengqi's expression changed.
The old man ignored Tang Zhengqi's words, and with a wave of his hand, a strong wind swept Tang Zhengqi and the others up into the sky.
"ah!"
Everyone screamed, but they were moving quickly through the strong wind. They felt that their speed was frightening.
In just half a day, they flew back to the Red Moon Immortal City amidst screams.
In a main hall of Hongyue Immortal Capital, Lou Yujing and Tu Jiuniang suddenly raised their eyebrows and looked up at the sky.
"Huh? They're back?" Lou Yujing said unexpectedly.
With a wave of his hand, Lou Yujing ushered the flying people into the main hall where he was. With a bang, a group of people fell to the ground, and Tang Zhengqi was even more dizzy after falling.
At this time, a large number of guards and officials came, but Tu Jiuniang waved them all away.
"What's going on with you?" Lou Yujing asked coldly.
Everyone slowly came to their senses, not daring to hide anything, and described everything that had happened before.
"Husband, I just said that we should go and invite the saint in person. You see, this seems to offend the saint." Tu Jiuniang said with a bitter smile.
"It's not like you don't know the saint's character. He is obsessed with saving face and looks down on anyone. I don't want to pay him any big gifts." Lou Yujing said in a deep voice.
"But..." Tu Jiuniang smiled bitterly.
"Why, do you feel sorry for those relatives of yours?" Lou Yujing asked.
"That's it. They don't know what to do. I told them that they must invite the saint with the most solemn gift, but they are still a little arrogant. Alas!" Tu Jiuniang sighed.
"They are disobedient and will die if they die. The left and right are just officials from the Ministry of Rites. Just change them. You can choose them yourself." Lou Yujing said.
Tu Jiuniang nodded helplessly, then looked at Tang Zhengqi and asked, "What else did that saint say?"
"That senior said that I have a certain eye and am a talent that can be made." Tang Zhengqi said.
Tu Jiuniang looked strange: "..."
Not long after, Tang Zhengqi and his party came out of the main hall.
"Congratulations to your Excellency, Your Excellency, on your promotion. From now on, Your Excellency will be the number one person in my Etiquette Department." A subordinate immediately flattered him.
"Haha, it's all due to the empress's wise eyesight and luck." Tang Zhengqi said with a smile.
