In a large tent, Meng Sipei rested his chin on his hands and sighed, his face full of sadness.
Although a day had passed, Meng Sipei still felt like she was still immersed in the miasma, as if she could see that reassuring figure whenever she turned around.
But it's just as if.
While he was sighing, the curtain of the big tent was opened, and Wan Anqing walked in from the outside, followed by Hong Yaxuan who looked back from time to time.
Meng Sipei, who heard the commotion, quickly stood up and saluted: "Sect Master."
Nodding, Wan Anqing looked Meng Sipei over and said, "Looking at you, you seem to be a little uneasy?"
When Meng Sipei heard this, he lowered his head and said softly: "It made the sect leader laugh."
"Now that the matter is over, we have to look up and look forward." After Wan Anqing finished speaking, he sat on a back chair and asked, "How was your investigation today?"
After cupping his hands, Meng Sipei replied: "Reporting to the sect master, Fang Huyin has collected enough miasma. After returning to the sect, he can start making alchemy. In addition, we have also left marks in the towns and villages along the way, marking items that may be media.
.”
"Okay, for such a big event, our Sifang Sect cannot lag behind others." After taking a sip of tea, Wan Anqing continued: "The new emperor chosen by Fengzhou is indeed interesting. Although he has no cultivation, he can still find it.
There are many problems that we have ignored, which are indeed valuable."
After hearing this, Meng Sipei responded: "To receive such praise from the sect master, it seems that the emperor does have some real abilities."
"Well, so the old Taoist thought that we shouldn't completely ignore the emperor. In addition, under the current circumstances, we should tide over the difficulties with Fengzhou, so the old Taoist thought that we should send someone to the palace to make up for the celebration.
It confirms his identity, Sipei, what do you think?"
"The lord is wise." Meng Sipei bowed his hand, "Through this incident, we can indeed see the ambitions of those young wolves in the Liang Kingdom. In this case, we should work together with Fengzhou to eliminate the foreign enemies."
"Well..." Wan Anqing nodded, "Then who do you think is better to choose to send this celebration gift?"
As soon as Wan Anqing finished speaking, Hong Yaxuan, who was standing behind him, quickly took a step forward and saluted with his hands in his hands: "My disciple is willing to go!"
Seeing Hong Yaxuan taking such initiative, Wan Anqing was stunned for a moment, then thought for a moment and said, "That's fine, the experienced disciple personally gives him a gift, which is considered to be a compliment to the emperor, but Xuan'er..."
Seeing her master looking at her, Hong Yaxuan's cheeks turned red for no reason and she quickly lowered her head.
Wan Anqing smiled knowingly, and even Meng Sipei next to him saw some clues.
"Hahaha, no wonder you were so rude when you first met the emperor. So that's it, that's it..."
"Master...I...I don't have it." Hong Yaxuan waved her hands quickly.
"There is no need to explain. Don't worry, Master is not an old-fashioned person. Although the Emperor has no great cultivation, he does have some outstanding qualities. Master is sure about this."
"That's not true! Master, you have misunderstood! Disciple is just..."
"Well, there is no need to say more. You can decide for yourself whether you want to or not. Then the task of giving the gifts will be left to you. If you want to stay in the palace for a while after the gifts are given, Master will make it in advance.
"
Hong Yaxuan, who knew that she couldn't explain it for a while, had no choice but to bow her hands and say, "Thank you, Master, for your kindness."
Looking at Hong Yaxuan's rosy little face, Meng Sipei, who roughly understood what had happened, suddenly felt deeply moved and couldn't help but said: "Yaxuan, if you really meet the person you like, don't hesitate, otherwise it will be too late to regret."
Listening to the deputy sect leader's serious tone, Hong Yaxuan didn't even care about being shy. She raised her head and glanced at the deputy sect leader and said, "Disciple, please remember the deputy sect leader's teachings."
On the seat, looking at the two people looking at each other, Wan Anqing couldn't help stroking his beard and wondered, could it be that spring is coming?
On the other side, Jiang Beiran, who understood Ji Qinglin's ambitions, chatted with him for a long time and gradually learned something about his personality.
To put it simply, it is worth paying for.
"Having said so much, can you have a drink with me now?" Ji Qinglin, who also felt that he was very close to Jiang Beiran, grabbed the wine jar and said.
Just when Jiang Beiran was about to agree, two options popped up.
[Option 1: Have a drink and chat with Ji Qinglin. Completion reward: Floating Light Demon Record (Xuan level top grade)]
[Option 2: Say goodbye and leave. Completion reward: Random basic skill point +1]
'Um?'
Jiang Beiran was indeed a little confused when he saw the option prompt for this matter again, and he didn't know why having a drink with Ji Qinglin was so dangerous.
Choosing the second choice, Jiang Beiran stood up and cupped his hands and said: "I really can't bear to drink. Now that it's getting late, I still have a lot of miasma-related matters to coordinate, so I'll take the first step."
[Optional mission completed, reward: Alchemy +1]
After speaking, Jiang Beiran left the tent without looking back.
"Hey! This brat..." Seeing Jiang Beiran leaving so decisively, Ji Qinglin didn't blame him for being rude. After all, in the conversation just now, he also understood why the master chose this young disciple, and also felt that he might
It can really bring changes to Shengguo.
'It's just that my temper is a bit weird...but surprisingly it's quite to my liking.'
Shaking his head, Ji Qinglin picked up the wine jar and drank several sips of it for himself.
…
"boom!"
Just when Jiang Beiran was about to go to say hello to his sect master, a loud noise suddenly sounded from behind him, and then he saw Ji Qinglin flying into the air holding his Jin Bo Chun.
"Gudu... Gudu... Gudu..."
After drinking several more gulps for himself, Ji Qinglin threw the wine jar back and shouted: "Cheer up, everyone! How do they look so dejected!"
As he spoke, he moved his palm forward and saw a Xuanling Realm cultivator being sucked into his hand from a distance.
"You! Give me a smile!"
Xuan Ling, who was caught, looked confused and struggled and shouted: "What do you want to do!?"
Seeing that Xuan Ling was not cooperating, Ji Qinglin burped and said, "If you don't eat the toast, you will be punished with a drink!"
Ji Qinglin was about to gather his profound energy to teach the mysterious spirit in front of him a lesson when he heard a loud shout not far away.
"Evil disciple! Please stop it now!"
Immediately afterwards, Yin Jianghong's figure was seen flying into the air quickly, and she punched Ji Qinglin in the face.
Ji Qinglin seemed to wake up a little after being punched. After seeing clearly that the person coming was Yin Jianghong, he scratched his hair and said, "Master? Didn't you go to Wuxian Mountain?"
Ji Qinglin's words seemed to touch a certain memory point in Yin Jianghong's memory. For a moment, the expression on his face changed from stunned to kind, but soon he punched Ji Qinglin in the face again.
"Evil fellow! Come back with me quickly, I'll be embarrassed here!" After saying that, he dragged Ji Qinglin back to the ground.
Accompanied by "Master... please be gentle, gentle" begging for mercy, the two of them gradually drifted away.
"What are you two doing?" Looking at this farce-like scene, Jiang Beiran couldn't help but shake his head.
But at the same time, I also understood why the option asked him to withdraw immediately.
'The dignified Xuanzong... can actually become drunk and go crazy?'
…
Early the next morning, all sects and sects began to break out of their camps. Originally, they stayed here not only to detect information, but also to prevent the recurrence of the miasma. Now two days have passed, and without any accidents, the senior officials present have
Naturally, they have to go back and take charge of the overall situation.
Jiang Beiran reported the current situation to Lu Yinlong last night and roughly told the next plans of several giants. Lu Yinlong felt relieved after knowing that there would be no big moves next, and then talked to Jiang Bei
Then we talked about the recent situation in Lulin County.
Although policies and construction in all aspects are just in their infancy, a large number of people have already come out of nowhere. According to the current momentum, the population growth trend will definitely far exceed what Jiang Beiran promised at the time.
Thirty percent.
Since the report had been completed, Jiang Beiran did not follow Lu Yinlong back to the Heart Sect, but went back to the palace first.
Before he arrived at the Jingxin Hall, Jiang Beiran suddenly heard the sound of gongs and drums.
Controlling the auspicious clouds to slowly fall to the ground, Jiang Bei then adjusted his emperor's robe after getting off the clouds, and slowly walked into the Jingxin Hall.
Nowadays, it is normal for the emperor to suddenly disappear and appear in the palace. The eunuchs and maids are always alert and do not dare to be lazy at all.
At this moment, Jiang Beiran had just stepped into the Jingxin Hall, and Wang Shougui greeted him enthusiastically and said, "See you, Your Majesty."
"Yeah." Jiang Beiran nodded, then turned to look at the place where the gongs and drums sounded and asked, "What happened over there? Why is it so noisy?"
Wang Shougui hurriedly replied one day: "Your Majesty, the talents are rehearsing and performing. Your Majesty said you wanted to see it."
"I want to watch it?" Jiang Beiran recalled for a moment, and suddenly remembered that he seemed to have said that he would let them rehearse some performances, and then hold a gala during the Spring Festival or something.
Jiang Beiran, who understood what had happened, was about to go to the study when he saw Mu Yao running up to him like a gust of wind, looking at him carefully up and down, left and right.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Beiran asked with a frown.
"I heard something big happened in Taihe County, right? Dad and the others have all gone."
"You are quite well informed." Jiang Beiran said as he opened the door and entered the study. "The matter has been resolved. Don't worry, your dad is fine. And as you can see, I am fine too."
After hearing this, Mu Yao breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Your Majesty, what happened over there?"
Sitting in front of the dragon case, Jiang Beiran waved his hand towards Wang Shougui who followed him and said, "Step back."
"I obey." After Wang Shougui said that, he walked out backwards.
After briefly describing what happened in the miasma to Mu Yao, Jiang Beiran took out a whistle from the Qiankun Ring.
When Jiang Beiran blew the whistle, Mu Yao had not yet recovered from the shock.
'The miasma that almost swallowed up the entire Sheng Kingdom.'
'An alien race appears out of nowhere.'
'There are also strong men who can't even deal with Big Daddy...'
After a while, Mu Yao looked at Jiang Beiran again and said again: "Your Majesty... is it you in the end..."
"Don't ask questions that shouldn't be asked."
"Hmph...if you don't ask, don't ask."
However, in Mu Yao's heart, she has determined that the emperor must have taken action in this matter, and is the key figure in solving this miasma.
After a while, just when Mu Yao was about to change her approach and ask what happened in the miasma, the door of the study room was suddenly opened. At the same time, Su Xiuyu, who put away the illusion curtain, knelt on one knee and said, "See your majesty."
"Too slow." Jiang Beiran said with narrowed eyes.
Feeling a panic, Su Xiuyu immediately knelt on his knees and explained sincerely: "I was not in Ningdu just now, so I came late. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
"You also went to observe the miasma?"
"Yes." Su Xiuyu didn't dare to wait for the expiry of any time and answered directly.
"Has your sect master contacted you?"
"Yes." Su Xiuyu nodded immediately, "Shortly after the miasma appeared, the sect leader sent a letter to ask what happened in Sheng Kingdom."
"How did you answer?"
"I said Shengguo just encountered some minor troubles and they will be resolved soon."
"Well, you did a good job."
In fact, when Jiang Beiran first came out of the miasma, he heard Guan Shi'an say that he went over and shouted and scared away all the people in Liang Guo, and he thought that Su Xiuyu must be involved.
Otherwise, given Liang Guo's ruthless character, how could he not give it a try when he saw such a good opportunity?
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Su Xiuyu lowered his head and replied.
When Mu Yao heard Su Xiuyu's answer, she was full of admiration for the emperor. She thought that if the Liang State took advantage of the situation and invaded the Sheng State, the Sheng State, which had suffered a double blow, would definitely fall into a huge crisis.
However, the emperor resolved this crisis by himself.
'It's really amazing...'
And just when little stars were about to appear in Mu Yao's eyes, Jiang Beiran suddenly turned his head and looked at her and said, "What are you still standing there for? Why don't you go make tea as soon as the guests are here?"
"Yes." Mu Yao agreed and immediately ran to make tea.
Looking back at Su Xiuyu who was kneeling below, Jiang Beiran continued: "Has your sect master contacted you again since then?"
"Not yet." Su Xiuyu immediately shook his head.
"If he contacts you again, do you know what to say?"
"Sheng Guo is safe and sound and did not suffer much damage."
"Well, very good." Jiang Beiran nodded, and then asked: "When did you return to Shengguo?"
"Three days ago."
"Why don't you come to say hello?"
"I've been here, but His Majesty is not in the palace..."
"Why don't you contact me with the hummingbird I gave you."
"This..." Su Xiuyu suddenly broke out in a large amount of cold sweat, "I just thought that Your Majesty has a lot of things to do, and these little things are not worth disturbing you, so I thought..."
"Should you be surprised or not, do you have the final say, or do I?"
"I know I was wrong!" Su Xiuyu immediately kowtowed.
"Just this once, if you don't tell me immediately when you come back next time, I will make you understand that you are not in a desperate situation yet."
"Gudu..."
Jiang Beiran's words made Su Xiuyu sweat profusely. After swallowing a mouthful of saliva, he immediately replied: "Please remember, I will never do it again."
At this time, Mu Yao came to Jiang Beiran with tea and said: "Your Majesty, please have some tea."
Taking the tea cup, Jiang Beiran nodded and said, "Well, give him a cup too."
"Yes." Mu Yao nodded.
After taking a sip of the tea given by the emperor, Su Xiuyu finally regained his composure, then took out a few Qiankun rings from his arms and said, "These are the things your Majesty asked for. I have brought them to you."
