Chapter 308 Emperor Wu, Big Brother will take you to grab the bride! (Please give me double the monthly ticket)
"I should make some mistakes." Zhao Xing opened his eyes. "But how and to what extent should I make these mistakes? I need to think carefully about it."
However, this matter still needs to be clarified first, including the attitudes of all parties, and it cannot be taken for granted.
Because according to historical records from previous lives, Princess Youruo requested the marriage herself.
However, based on Zhao Xing's understanding of Princess Youruo, she definitely did not really want to marry.
Princess Youruo is loved by the water tribe and supported by the Bishui Taoist Institute not only because of her status.
The princesses of the Great Zhou all have great power, and Princess Youruo has particularly great power. To manage such a large area and balance the forces of all parties, is it something that can be done just by relying on her status?
"But." Zhao Xing recalled the moment he first met Princess Youruo. "She is not lacking in the arrogance that a princess should have, and with a love-minded mind, there is nothing she can't do. These are not contradictory, people are always complicated, and before the King of Liang rebelled, he was a famous wise king in the world."
Zhao Xing stood up from the lakeside, thinking as he walked. First, he had to figure out what happened, and then understand the thoughts of all parties. How many people were against it and how many supported it?
Especially the attitude of Emperor Jing, how determined is he? Was the marriage granted only verbally, or was there an imperial decree?
Even if it is an imperial edict, the princess's marriage is a major national event. At present, is it only stamped with the emperor's private seal, or has it been stamped with the six seals of the central government and announced to the world?
How many envoys from the Southern Barbarians came? In addition to serving the suzerain state, what other interests did they give up?
In short, you must plan before making decisions and strike a good balance.
"After living here for hundreds of years, we have to do something." Zhao Xing glanced at the princess's mansion, and then tens of thousands of clones quietly left Bixian County.
…………
Tianyongzhou, Fengjing, Princess Chenxi's Mansion, this is Ji Zixuan's residence.
As a disciple of Princess Youruo, Zhao Xing wanted to find someone to understand the situation, and of course Ji Zixuan was the most appropriate person to find.
Now Zhao Xing couldn't see Princess Youruo in person at all. She stayed in the palace and no one could see her.
"Brother." Ji Zixuan ran over quickly as if she had seen a savior, looking anxious: "Brother, you must save the princess. The princess does not want to marry into the barbarian tribe."
"Don't worry, take your time." Zhao Xing soothed, "I heard that the princess asked to marry you, is that true?"
Ji Zixuan bit her lip and said, "Yes, but the princess was just saying that in anger. She didn't really mean it. I was there at the time, I can swear!"
Zhao Xing placed his hand on Ji Zixuan's head: "Close your eyes and relax."
"Yes." Ji Zixuan did as she was told.
Then she felt a strong sleepiness coming over her and immediately fell into a dream.
Zhao Xing entered her dream and immediately gained Ji Zixuan's perspective.
In the Qianqing Palace, the residence of Emperor Jing, Ji Zixuan was kneeling on the ground at this time.
She came with Princess Youruo to pay respects to Emperor Jing.
The conversation was normal, the daughter just came to greet her father.
But when the topic turned to Liu Tianning, the atmosphere changed.
"Father~"
"Just tell me about Liu Tianning's situation." Princess Youruo said coquettishly as usual: "Just tell me."
"This is a state secret." Emperor Jing said calmly, "You usually have so many things to take care of, why are you worrying about him?"
"Oh, my daughter just wants to know."
"No."
Seeing this, Zhao Xing felt that his father, Emperor Jing, had hinted clearly enough.
But Princess Youruo didn't seem to realize that acting coquettishly didn't work and she kept saying "no" over and over again. She actually got angry at Emperor Jing.
"Secret, secret, and secret again!" Princess Youruo stood up and complained loudly, "Why do so many people know it, but I am the only one who doesn't know it? Don't you know what I mean?!"
Emperor Jing said impatiently, "I still have to deal with the marriage proposal from the Nanman envoy. I don't want to explain it to you anymore. Please leave."
"Are you even on guard against your daughter? I have been managing the affairs of the East China Sea for you for many years. Even if I have no credit, I have worked hard. How dare you not tell me even this little thing!"
"Is that what you think of me?"
"Isn't it? I have liked Liu Tianning for many years, why don't you allow us to get married? Or have you given birth to so many sons that you forgot about me, your daughter..."
"Shut up!"
The father and daughter were talking to each other, and the atmosphere suddenly became extremely tense.
Ji Zixuan knelt on the ground, not daring to even breathe.
At this time, the words uttered by the sad Princess Youruo further irritated Emperor Jing's nerves.
"Since you are so tired of your daughter, why don't you send her to the South Barbarians?"
"Okay!" Emperor Jing slapped the dragon throne and said angrily, "Come here, draft an edict! Princess Youruo has requested to marry the Southern Barbarians. Send it to the central government for my seal immediately!"
"Your Majesty, this is not possible..."
"Blast out!"
hum~
The scene ends here.
Ji Zixuan shuddered and woke up from fear.
"Senior brother..."
"I understand." Zhao Xing nodded, "Wait here, don't move around casually, and don't spread this matter."
"Yes."
After Zhao Xing left, Ji Zixuan bit her lips and clenched her fists tightly.
"I am also a princess, but my power is too small and I can't do anything... Now I can only rely on my senior brother."
……
On the top of Mount Qitian, Zhao Xing opened his eyes.
"So this is how you ask to marry someone else."
“History is indeed a little girl who can be dressed up by anyone.”
Zhao Xing sneered.
To be honest, Princess Youruo is not that stupid. Those words were just spoken in anger.
She was originally very favored, but now she has committed a big taboo.
Emperor Jing was first the emperor, and only secondarily her father.
It’s okay if I don’t mention the East China Sea, but I get dizzy as soon as I mention it.
Of course, as a bystander, Zhao Xing felt that this passage sounded a bit like what Emperor Jing was guiding her to say.
"The princesses of the Great Zhou have always held power, and Princess Youruo has been favored for many years. She has never thought that her father would take away her power. Does she think she is different?"
"Emperor Jing didn't tell her about Liu Tianning because he wanted to make a trade. Princess Youruo handed over her power, and Emperor Jing granted her marriage. This should have been a happy situation for everyone."
"Emperor Wu spent his childhood in her house. With this connection, is it possible that she will suffer any grievances in the future?" Zhao Xing analyzed the problem from Emperor Jing's perspective and felt that there was nothing wrong with what he did.
You only think about acting like a spoiled child. Why don't you think about your father?
I'm afraid Emperor Jing would also like to ask: I have chopped off so many heads, don't you understand what it feels like to be a father?
"Today's fear of marriage and childbearing +1." Zhao Xing couldn't help but mutter: "Parent-child conflicts in ordinary families are already bad enough, and the royal family is even more intense."
Mr. Zhao is now more determined not to marry or have children. Even if he has to one day, he will still train her well.
"If the development in the previous life continues, I'm afraid Old Liu doesn't have the ability to change this will now."
"During this period, he should still be clearing up factional conflicts and being troubled by the shortcomings of the Wanfa Straw Man."
"Princess Youruo asked to marry herself, so there is no reason to interfere."
"Even now, Lao Jing's order has already come out of the inner court and been sent to the six central ministries. It is difficult to stop it." Zhao Xing said secretly.
He asked around and concluded that there were more supporters than opponents.
The Great Zhou also has both pro-war and pro-peace factions. The royal family is willing to marry a princess and stop fighting, so how can we not agree?
War means death! Looking at the Pingman War in the two new periods, it can basically be said that it was a lonely battle.
Not many new powerful people were born, and the old powerful people were either dead or injured, and were purged during the Jiazi period. Life was really hard.
How can it compare to the reign of Emperor Wen? Although Emperor Wen took the lead in being frugal, he did not force his ministers to do the same. Whether they were frugal or not, they could still live a carefree life behind closed doors, right?
Now that Emperor Jing has issued an order and the princess has requested it, can it exchange it for peace? What's the point of opposing it?
Opponents mainly come from the East China Sea and some hard-line war advocates.
Especially some ministers who valued etiquette, they believed that the southern barbarians were barbarians, so how could they marry Princess Youruo, the eldest princess, to them? Wouldn't that be a defilement?
Even Emperor Wen simply found a princess with a thin bloodline from the Ji royal family, temporarily gave her the title of princess and married her off. Even so, he has been criticized for thousands of years.
"Fortunately, I achieved great results in my trip to Longting, which reduced the threat from the Southern Barbarians. Otherwise, I'm afraid there would be more supporters now." Zhao Xing said secretly.
"It is much easier to fulfill Princess Youruo and Liu Tianning's wishes than in the previous life."
If it were a normal trajectory, during the last trip to Longting, Bai Yunwu was surrounded, and the contest between Da Zhou and the hostile alliance was about a 50-50 match on paper. With so many high-quality deaths, people would definitely criticize them for being warmongering.
Although there were still a lot of deaths in this world, the harvest Zhao Xing brought back was too great! Enough to cover up the impact of the death of the 400 high-quality ones.
Looking at the overall situation of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the situations in the two worlds are different.
"But those who support Princess Youruo's marriage still outnumber those who oppose it." Zhao Xing's many clones went to the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Rites to inquire about the news. "Emperor Jing issued an order, and the princess requested it on her own initiative. Those who oppose the marriage have no confidence, and they are afraid of being killed by Emperor Jing."
"You still have to submit the letter. Let's try it first."
As a doctor of Fengchang and a palace official, there was nothing wrong with Zhao Xing submitting this memorial; it was reasonable and moral for him to do so.
"We have to let Liu Tianning, King Luohou, and a group of supporters express their attitudes. Without someone waving the flag, who would dare to go up?"
"I can explore Ji Zixuan's memory. The secret is not blocked. Doesn't this mean I am allowed to see it?"
Zhao Xing immediately took out the ground mirror and called on relatives and friends to write a letter to oppose Princess Youruo's marriage.
"Brother Zhao, what's the reason?" Xia Jing sent a message and asked. At this time, Xia Jing was already at the third level, but not a third-level official.
Of course, this petition has nothing to do with your official position; it just depends on whether you are important enough.
Xia Jing was obviously well-equipped. His father was Xiahou and his uncle was a royal relative. After nearly a hundred years of development, Xia Jing had begun to take over his father's network of relationships.
"The Yanguang royal court is a barbarian nation, how can they be worthy of marrying Princess Youruo? Just follow the war faction's approach." Zhao Xing replied.
Of course the real reason cannot be told. Wouldn't that be a slap in the face of Lao Jing and expose the shortcomings of the royal family?
"Okay, I'll start right away." Xia Jing nodded. He often came to the princess's mansion to meet Zhao Xing over the years, and their relationship has always been very close. Besides, if you really want to count, he is also a relative of Princess Youruo.
After talking to Xia Jing, the second person was Long Xiao.
"Zhao Xing, something big has happened! Do you know?" Long Xiao said anxiously.
"Do you know what the wind direction is over there among the water tribes?" Zhao Xing asked.
"There are all kinds of rumors." Long Xiao said, "Some say the princess was forced, some say she was locked up. My father-in-law has already set off to Fengjing to meet the emperor, and the Tang and Ao families have also sent people to go."
"What's going on? How could Princess Youruo be used as a marriage partner?"
Zhao Xing said: "This is the situation. Don't ask any more questions. Don't you have a rank? Just copy a memorial and submit it."
"Row!"
In the military world, inside the Hundred Soldiers Tower.
Zhao Xing met the 'Prince of Xin'. The original Prince of Xin, Liu Yong, had died. The current Prince of Xin was his son Liu Cheng'an, the prince who was fed Lingxiu by Zhao Xing in Shiyang Cave.
The title of Prince Xin was not downgraded, because the original fief of Prince Xin was not large, just a county, and he did not hold military power, so he just served as a scapegoat, just like Prince Lingde.
Therefore, Liu Cheng'an now inherited his father's throne as a prince. As for the former King Lingde and King Anning, they also died of old age.
"Brother Zhao." When Liu Cheng'an saw Zhao Xing, he still called him brother, even though he was a king and Zhao Xing was only a marquis.
"Brother Liu," Zhao Xing said, "I guess you have guessed why I came here?"
"Understood." Liu Cheng'an raised the document in his hand and said, "I'm planning to send it."
"Thank you." Zhao Xing bowed and then went straight to the top floor of the Hundred Soldiers Tower. He wanted to see King Luohou.
On the top floor of the Hundred Soldiers Tower, King Rāhu was standing in front of a sand table, with tall ground mirrors in front, behind, and on both sides.
"Your Highness." Zhao Xing cupped his hands.
"Liu Tianning hasn't come out yet?" asked King Luohou.
"Yes." Ever since Liu Tianning went into seclusion, the only person he could contact was Zhao Xing.
Lao Liu’s retreat is different from Zhao Xing’s. His clone only handles established affairs and is not connected to the original body.
This is the [Cutting Connection Method] that Zhao Xing specially customized for him. Every ten years or so, the original body will collect the clone, and then use the main soul of the original body to eliminate the clone, and then release the new clone, just like metabolism, in this way to achieve the purpose of reconstruction.
"Thank you for running around for him." said King Rāhu.
"The princess has taken care of me for hundreds of years, and my family has lived in the princess's mansion for hundreds of years. Even if I had no teacher-student relationship with her, I would still object." Zhao Xing expressed his attitude.
"This is difficult to handle." King Luohou sighed, "I asked to see His Majesty, but His Majesty refused to summon me. Now I can't see the princess either. Liu Tianning is in seclusion again. Many officials in the six ministries don't know what to do."
King Luohou had no idea what Emperor Jing was thinking and only felt that the power of heaven was unpredictable.
After a pause, King Luohou said, "The first decision of the six ministries is presided over by me. I will oppose it and let this matter be put on hold for the time being."
"But the second resolution will be held in seven days, and the acting prime minister Tong Wensheng will definitely give his full support."
"The third resolution was chaired by Li Boqian, but I don't think he will get involved in this matter."
…………
"King Luohou is right. I will not intervene in this matter." Li Boqian said leisurely, "This is a private matter between Princess Youruo and Liu Tianning."
"I am selfless and fair by not adding insult to injury."
In Daoyuanzhou, in a mansion of Xuantian Academy, Zhao Xing also met Li Boqian.
Zhao Xing was helpless, as the Sinong factional dispute had already reached its late stage. Liu Tianning had never lost a single battle in the dojo; all of them were decisive victories.
This caused great shame within Xuantian Academy.
Li Boqian himself had already delegated power long ago, and even the official business was managed by a few junior ministers of agriculture.
He doesn't even take care of his official duties, so how could he get involved in royal affairs?
After all, Li Boqian was the Minister of Agriculture sent by Tianshi, and it was impossible for him to help Liu Tianning deal with such private matters.
"If you want to marry the princess, that's fine." Li Boqian said cheerfully, "I'll crawl over here to enforce justice even if I have to."
"What kind of barbarian is this? Are you willing to cooperate with me, the Son of Heavenly Time, to fight against me?"
"You are still joking at this time." Zhao Xing was helpless.
"No kidding." Li Boqian suddenly sat up and said with a chuckle, "How about you go and marry Princess Youruo? I will definitely stand up and support you."
"Given your popularity among the three factions, you have it all under control."
Zhao Xing: "..."
Is this how the three factions gain prestige?
The old man is becoming more and more humorous.
Seeing Li Boqian like this, Zhao Xing knew there was no point in chatting anymore.
"Have a good rest. I'll come see you later."
"Come earlier, Yuanfeng hasn't learned yet." Li Boqian shouted, "I can't hold on for long. It won't be so convenient for you to learn in the underground."
"Got it!" Zhao Xing turned into a cloud and disappeared.
"Hey, this is really new." Li Boqian waved his palm-leaf fan, "Even the clone can perform the so-called "close yet so far away" skillfully."
…………
Li Boqian didn't care about this at all. He only cared about Zhao Xing's achievements.
Xuanyuan Qingtian in Kunyuan Academy has the same attitude.
"Liu Tianning asked to marry the princess. If he had said so earlier, there might still be a chance."
"But now... it's difficult."
"Uncle Master, what do you mean?" Meng Kun asked from the side, "Isn't Liu Tianning stronger than that bastard?"
Meng Kun has a deep prejudice against the Southern Barbarians, and the main reason is the Yanguang Royal Court.
The Babok insect can also dig tunnels, so isn't this just stealing your job?
In history, the ancient tunnels were not dug when fighting against the southern barbarians because of the existence of these beasts.
How could they be happy when the existence of the Babok worm caused them casualties and prevented them from digging the ground?
As long as one is a Si Nong of the Dili faction, he dislikes the Yanguang Royal Court.
If we rank the four great royal courts, the Yanguang Royal Court must be the most hated by the Dili faction's Si Nong.
"I didn't say I'm not worthy of you." Xuanyuan Qingtian said, "It's just that the problem is not on the surface."
"Not on the surface?" Meng Kun was stunned.
"Xiao Kunkun, you have to look deeper. Only by digging up the surface soil can you see how the roots are intertwined."
Meng Kun's face darkened: "Can you please stop calling me that? I'm almost four hundred years old."
"Hahaha."
As soon as Zhao Xing heard it, he knew that Mr. Xuanyuan was a sensible man.
But it was obvious that he would not dig up the surface of the royal family.
Are you bored and want to slap Emperor Jing in the face for Liu Tianning's personal affairs?
Zhao Xing did not get much support from Xuanyuan Qingtian. Old Xuanyuan was also dying, and he had the same attitude as Li Boqian.
If it was Zhao Xing's request, he would have to fulfill Zhao Xing's wish even if the mountain was destroyed and people died.
…………
On July 15th, Taiwei Luohou presided over the agenda of the six ministries and opposed Princess Youruo's marriage. The reason was very simple, which was the rhetoric of the pro-war faction.
The core can be summed up in four words: Southern barbarians are not worthy.
He is a die-hard supporter of Liu Tianning.
The military is going to fight a war, so it is very important who is in charge of logistics!
If the Grand Marshal and the Minister of Agriculture are not close to each other, no war can be won.
During the years when Liu Tianning served as the military inspector, he had a lot of supporters among the military commanders.
The first resolution was sent back to the inner court without any suspense.
However, a few days later, Emperor Jing's decree came out from the inner court again, and the acting prime minister Tong Wensheng was appointed to restart the agenda seven days later.
He was determined to get the ministers to come to a satisfactory conclusion.
The number of supporters is gradually increasing.
…………
Shangluo Academy, Shenmu Courtyard, and the spiritual fountain.
hum~
Zhao Xing walked out from a big tree.
Liu Tianning sat cross-legged beside the fountain, with a serene look and a peaceful breath. During Liu Tianning's retreat, only Zhao Xing could enter here at any time.
To rebuild the second level of Yanshen Jue, Liu Tianning's original body and clone adopted the [Qie Lian Method].
At this time, Liu Tianning had no idea what was happening in the outside world.
Zhao Xingze doesn't need to do this, so Ji Anlan finds it boring. Yesterday, he told your clone what we had for dinner, but today, the other clone forgot it. No one can stand it.
But the effect is very good. Liu Tianning is at least very normal. Since he started the second level, he has not shown any signs of madness.
It can be seen from the competition in the [Dojo].
If he was crazy, Liu Tianning would not hold back at all and would kill everyone so that a river of blood would flow. At the very least, he would severely injure his opponent.
But now all the candidates who have fought against him are alive and well.
"Teacher~"
"Teacher~"
Zhao Xing opened his mouth, and ripples spread out, slowly invading the spiritual energy fountain.
The soft voice spread out in circles and soon reached Liu Tianning.
Liu Tianning also slowly opened his eyes with a smile on his face: "Chen An, why did you wake me up? Did you have a breakthrough?"
Zhao Xing shook his head: "The princess has been granted marriage."
Liu Tianning was stunned. At this moment, all his clones froze for a moment.
After a long time, Liu Tianning asked in a hoarse voice: "Who is it?"
"The crown prince of the Nanman Royal Court and Yanguang Royal Court, Wansi."
"Has there been an order?"
"The imperial edict drafted by your majesty in early July has been sent to the six central ministries for the first resolution after it came out of the inner court. However, it was opposed by King Luohou and was sent back to the inner court for your majesty to reconsider."
"What's the result?" Liu Tianning asked impatiently.
"Yesterday, His Majesty sent the decree to the six central ministries intact, and reiterated that Princess Youruo was 'willing to marry'."
"Appoint acting Prime Minister Tong Wensheng to preside over the meeting." Zhao Xing said, "The number of opponents will probably decrease, and the number of supporters will increase."
"Impossible!" Liu Tianning shouted, "Absolutely impossible!"
"Although there are precedents of marriage alliances in our dynasty, how can Youruo be like the other princesses?"
"Voluntary? That's even more ridiculous!"
"Are you lying to me?" Liu Tianning stared at Zhao Xing. "Are you using this to test my mind?"
silence.
The two of them fell silent. Liu Tianning's expression gradually became a little desperate, and his soul power began to fluctuate violently: "What's going on? How is this possible..."
"Teacher." Zhao Xing's voice was as melodious as a bell, soothing Liu Tianning's soul. "What do you think? Have you ever planned to marry Princess Youruo?"
"Of course!" Liu Tianning said without hesitation, "I had planned to marry her after I became the Minister of Agriculture, so that the world would know that I, Liu Tianning, was worthy of this pearl of the East China Sea."
"Only the position of Grand Minister of Agriculture will not wrong her!"
Zhao Xing was speechless, you two are really a perfect match.
Princess Youruo wants to marry you with a generous dowry and is reluctant to leave Donghai, and you also want to marry her after becoming the Minister of Agriculture. You two don't care what Emperor Jing thinks at all?
"Teacher, if it really happens as you think, don't you think you have too much power?" Zhao Xing said softly.
"I am loyal to Your Majesty!"
"I don't want you to think, I want me to think."
"..."
Liu Tianning was silent.
Zhao Xing also remained silent. Old Liu had indeed been a bit confused in recent years.
The supporters behind him might never have thought that Liu Tianning could really rise to such a high position. They originally thought that being the leader of Shangluo Academy was his limit.
After a moment, he said hoarsely, "Is it too late for anything now?"
The second resolution will definitely be passed, that’s for sure.
Even if you can oppose, you cannot collude with officials to oppose.
Otherwise the nature will change completely.
That will usher in the craziest Emperor Jing!
"It's not too late." Zhao Xing thought, "It depends on how much you want to be with the princess, teacher."
…………
"Hahahaha, this is great news!"
In Fengjing, in the Siyi Pavilion, bursts of hearty laughter were heard.
There were two strong men with bare arms, wearing animal skins and with tail feathers on their heads, drinking happily.
Xinge and Xin Chang, both of whom were at the third level, were extremely happy.
The two brothers are the leaders of the guards of the Yanguan Royal Court.
"I thought this trip would be a tough one," Singh said with emotion. "I never expected it."
Emperor Jing and Emperor Wen are completely different. In the eyes of foreigners, Ji Mingjing is a sinister and cunning wolf king. What can't he do?
If they dare to ask for the princess, they might get their heads chopped off and sent back.
As a result, Emperor Jing not only did not kill them, but actually gave them a princess!
"Yeah, I didn't expect that." Xin Chang also took a sip of wine, "It seems that Da Zhou really doesn't want to fight anymore."
"That's right. Although their territory is large, there are so many leaders and kings. Who would be willing to keep fighting without making any profit?"
"Yes, just like Jin Yu, Zi Long, and Sheng Ling, there are many disobedient leaders in each tribe. They will go to a battle if it is beneficial, but will deny it if it is not beneficial."
"Let's go back and consider it a great achievement!"
"Hehe, I heard that Princess Youruo was born with a natural body of clear water, and her body is flexible. I wonder what it feels like..."
"Oh!"
Suddenly, Singh, who was speaking, flew up and hit the Dharma wall hard.
Xin Chang, who was standing next to him, was startled when he saw this scene and immediately knelt down on the ground.
An old man in a white wizard robe suddenly appeared in front of them.
The old man was their respected saint Yun Yang, who was shouting, "You two bastards, if I dare to hear you talking nonsense again, I will dig out your souls and feed them to the Holy Beast!"
"Saint, we don't dare anymore." The two men crawled on the ground trembling.
"The strong men from the East Sea have all entered the capital. The outside world is very opposed to this. Unless it is necessary, you are not allowed to go out and wander around recently!" Yun Yang scolded, "Otherwise, your lives will be in danger. Do you understand?"
"Yes, yes." The two men responded tremblingly, but in fact they disagreed in their hearts.
…………
The second resolution was passed without any suspense. The six central ministries stamped their seals on it and the official document was notified to all county governments.
For a time, the whole world was in an uproar, and the East China Sea was in an uproar.
However, when the reaction was most intense,
On the second day of August, Princess Youruo made a public appearance. She appeared at the sacrificial ceremony started by the Ministry of Rites and publicly expressed her wishes.
"As a princess, An Lan is willing to contribute a little to the peace between the southern foreign countries and the Great Zhou. I offer a special sacrifice to the ancestors of heaven and earth, and hope that the people of the Great Zhou will never have wars..."
Zhao Xing also attended the ceremony.
His clone watched from a distance.
In Zhao Xing's eyes, Princess Youruo was just reading a notice with an expressionless face, going through the procedures.
However, in the eyes of others, Princess Youruo had a solemn expression and dignified manner, showing the demeanor of a royal noble and a heart of great love.
There were many people praising him at one time.
…………
Bixian County, Princess Mansion.
"Zhao Xing, this is not right, is the princess really willing to marry into the Southern Barbarians?" Xia Jing asked.
This incident caused such a sensation that he came over to ask Zhao Xing in person.
The prince now has no idea what is going on.
"Force! It must be forced!" Long Xiao shouted.
"Don't talk nonsense." Xia Jing glared at Long Xiao. Ji Anlan is already a princess, who can force her?
Implying Emperor Jing, do you want to stop living?
"What should we do now?" Chen Shijie asked, "Should we move out?"
Old Chen's family and Zhao Xing's family have always lived in the princess' fiefdom in Bixian County.
Can't you still live here now?
"Don't be impatient." Zhao Xing shook his head.
Xia Jing's eyes lit up: "Are there any more variables?"
"It's a done deal, what else can we do?" Long Xiao hammered the wall. "It's all been announced to the world. My Ling'er has cried like a fool, and has been cursing the East China Sea strongmen who came to Beijing for being incompetent."
"I told you not to rush." Zhao Xing looked out the window. "Do you remember what we said at Huoyan Mountain?"
"What?" Long Xiao was confused.
Chen Shijie and Xia Jing looked at each other, and the prince was the first to say, "Everything depends on human effort!"
Chen Shijie asked: "Who are you waiting for?"
…………
Zhao Xing was indeed waiting for someone, but the person was not an expert or someone in a high position of power.
During these days, there is still a weak but very tenacious force operating in the dark.
He was originally training in Guixu Cave Heaven, a cave world close to extinction.
But in early July, it ended in a hurry and ran out of the entrance of Red Stone County.
"Duke Wei! I want to see my father! I want to see my father!"
A tall young man with sharp eyebrows, bright eyes and a sword on his back suddenly appeared in the Duke of Wei's mansion.
The sky is blue and it is drizzling.
"It's been just over a year since you left the East Sea, and you've already stopped your training. This is already a violation of the ancestral teachings." Wei Gongming sighed, "Now you're going to offend Your Majesty, which is probably not a wise move."
"Just report it, Duke Wei! All the consequences will be borne by Che!" Ji Che's eyes were frighteningly bright. Although he was a teenager, he already had an amazing aura. The majesty in his gaze made Wei Gongming dare not look directly at him.
Facing a first-rank etiquette cultivator, the young man pressed on: "If you report this for me, I will remember it for the rest of my life!"
On the contrary, if you don’t retaliate, you will be hated for the rest of your life!
Wei Gongming looked at the young man in the rain, thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, I will take you to the capital now."
When Ji Che and Wei Gongming arrived in Fengjing, the imperial edict had already been conveyed to all the tribes.
When the ceremony was over, Wei Gongming looked at the depressed young man sitting on his seat and said, "Sir, maybe you can go back to the East Sea and see the princess again."
…………
When the sacrificial ceremony of the Fengjing Ministry of Rites was over, the auspicious date was quickly confirmed, and the wedding-welcoming team and the bride-sending team chose to set out in early September.
Starting from Fengjing, it passes through Tianyongzhou, Daoyuanzhou, then to Fuzhou, Pinghaizhou, and crosses the Canglan River.
When the wedding procession passed Daoyuanzhou.
On the top of Mount Qitian, rocks gradually fell.
Zhao Xing's real body walked out from the snow-covered stone mortar.
His thoughts gradually became active from silence, and Zhao Xing took a deep breath.
He looked at the sea of clouds ahead. Now, the other twenty-eight mountains in Lingxu blessed land were almost none higher than him.
The tallest one is only 8,000 meters.
"I have been cultivating the mountains for nearly a hundred years, and I have comprehended the destiny of heaven and earth. I am afraid that no one can match my foundation in the realm of destiny."
Originally, the twenty-nine peaks were far apart from each other.
But now, Zhao Xing's Qitian Mountain has grown to an exaggerated size. Although it is still 9999 meters, it has begun to grow horizontally.
Now, Qitian Mountain has invaded the territory of No. 28 "Zhiming Mountain".
"We can't grow towards Xie Zhiming anymore. We should grow towards Hill No. 1. Otherwise, it will affect other people's fortunes." Zhao Xing said, "It's a good opportunity to go out for a walk."
shuh~
Zhao Xing's true form transformed into a dragon-shaped shadow and quickly flew towards the entrance of Lingxu blessed land.
An hour later, he arrived at the Shangluo Academy.
At this time, next to the spiritual fountain, Liu Tianning's clone was going in and out repeatedly.
After the old soul entered, a new soul came out and returned to the straw man clone.
There is an unpredictable flickering between the original body and the clones, and some clones may even suddenly disintegrate and collapse.
The rebirth effect brought by the cutting method is very good.
Zhao Xing could clearly feel that Liu Tianning's soul was getting stronger, but it did not have that extreme temperament.
As a person who has achieved the second level of Yanshen Jue and has his soul divided into 50, Zhao Xing is the first person to practice this art!
He could clearly see the changes in Liu Tianning.
After waiting for a long time, Liu Tianning finally stopped changing and opened his eyes.
"Welcome back, teacher." Zhao Xing bowed.
"After ninety years of wandering in the heavens, I have returned to the earthly world today." Liu Tianning murmured to himself.
At this time, Liu Tianning had solved all the drawbacks. Like Zhao Xing, he was no longer troubled by the Wanfa Straw Man!
Zhao Xing sighed in his heart: "In the past, he was a madman in the human world, but now he has returned to his true form as a god."
He saw a handsome and high-spirited Liu Tianning!
The Liu Tianning who was said to be the best, who stepped on the Xunyang River and could destroy the enemy and repel the flood with just one finger!
No longer the weird, obscure and strange Liu Tianning.
All of his clones now have the same temperament!
"Chen An, thank you very much." Liu Tianning bowed towards Zhao Xing.
"Teacher, do you still need to be polite to me?" Zhao Xing said with a smile, "Now that you are completely awake and free from the troubles of the spell, I have one question for you: do you want to do it or not?"
Liu Tianning raised his eyebrows, and the shadow of the sacred tree filled the sky behind him: "Fuck him!"
"Hahahaha, let's go!"
…………
East China Sea, Bixian County, Princess Mansion.
At this time, the princess's mansion no longer had the glory of the past.
When Ji Che returned here, he saw many officials from the Transportation Department moving things.
Many things will be taken away from Princess Youruo’s palace and transported to the Canglan River to meet up with the wedding procession.
Of course, this is not about demolition, we just want to take away the valuables.
Even Tianma had to send a batch over.
The young man was a little sad. Although the layout of the princess's mansion remained the same, there were many strangers.
"Miss..."
Ji Che flew down, and the people around him seemed not to see him.
"I've only been away for a year and a half, how come it has become like this..."
He recalled scenes from his childhood. He came here when he was four years old and stayed here for nearly ten years.
He has no impression of his mother, and the person he is closest to is his eldest sister Ji Anlan.
An elder sister is like a mother. In Ji Che's heart, Ji Anlan has a very unique position.
"I still remember that at the beginning of last year, I left the Princess's Mansion with great pride and vowed to achieve something to show my elder sister."
"At that time, my elder sister personally embroidered a Ming Emperor robe for me, and also put on the Purple Cloud Armor for me..."
"How did that happen?"
Ji Che looked at the porters who were hurrying along, all of them were unfamiliar faces.
He subconsciously wanted to find a familiar figure and quickly came to the Tianma Lake.
Then, Ji Che saw a familiar figure.
"Brother!" Ji Che ran over.
"Fifth brother." Zhao Xing smiled and nodded.
Ji Che looked at Zhao Xing as if he had found a life-saving straw: "Brother, do you have a way to get the eldest princess to stay?"
After a pause, he saw that Zhao Xing had clones carrying boxes one after another, as if they were packing things.
"I'm sorry, I was talking nonsense." Ji Che looked gloomy.
Although Zhao Xing is Marquis of Divine Power, a second-grade realm, what can he do?
The matter is settled, and he has to move away.
"Brother, where are you moving to?"
"Who said I was moving?"
"Is not it?"
Zhao Xing pointed at the large boxes and said, "Look at these things. Do they look like they are used for moving?"
Ji Che looked carefully and found that there were all kinds of Fire Source Crystals, Hunyuan Magic Array Stones, and Shinra parts inside...
Looking in the direction where the boxes were being transported, he found that all these things were equipping a huge warship!
Wuyao warship! A ninth-level top-grade warship!
As a special permission from Emperor Jing, Zhao Xing's carriage was allowed to be equipped with heavy military weapons.
"Brother, what are you going to do?" Ji Che asked in confusion.
"I'm going to make a mistake." Zhao Xing said calmly.
"You, you want to..." The smart Ji Che reacted immediately, and an astonishing guess emerged in his mind.
After learning this guess, his mouth couldn't help but open wide, but his eyes became bright.
Zhao Xing jumped onto the side of the boat and looked back: "Yes, it's what you thought."
"I want to go too!" Ji Che quickly jumped onto the warship.
"You are still young, take that one." Zhao Xing put his hand on his head, then pointed at the golden dragon warship slowly flying in the sky, with a Wanfa Palace shining brightly on it.
"Fifth brother, are you excited that big brother will take you to grab the bride?" Zhao Xing smiled in his heart and looked at Ji Che's reaction.
The moment Ji Che saw the Hall of All Laws, he suddenly screamed with excitement.
"Grab! Big brother, we have to get the princess back!"
