Chapter 486: Congratulations From Changliu
All the machines sounded alarms, and the sharp beeping sound made Shen Ningning think that the place was about to explode.
Although she didn't understand what was going on, she could guess that some of the equipment in Lei Palace was about to be damaged?
She didn't know how to operate it at all, and panic appeared on her pretty face.
At that moment, she only thought, if Thunder Palace and Fairyland were destroyed, would she still have a chance to see her mother?
Shen Ningning ran back and forth in front of various instruments, trying to think of a way to solve this problem.
The entire Thunder Palace began to shake, and then there was a "rustling" movement coming from nowhere.
An instrument kept flashing alarm and red light next to Shen Ningning.
Sudden!
A strange and firm female voice seemed to come from the sky or the void——
"Ning Ning?"
Shen Ningning was suddenly stunned. She raised her head suddenly and looked around.
"Mother! Is it you, mother?"
The buzzing sound was full of interference. Shen Ningning eagerly called back and forth in front of each instrument: "Mother, I am Ningning, mother, where are you?"
no respond.
Until the alarm sounds of the instrument stopped one after another.
The entire Lei Palace returned to calm.
Shen Ningning's dark eyes were filled with tears of excitement.
It must have been her mother calling her just now!
So, my mother is not dead, can they see each other again?
Shen Ningning couldn't wait to leave the fairyland and wanted to find Master Gu to ask why this situation happened.
But as soon as she walked out of the screen, she ran into Ye Changyi who was looking for her.
"Ning Ning, there's a quarrel outside."
"What's going on?" The girl frowned.
"It seems that the Changliu Kingdom sent an envoy to say that they want to congratulate you on your hairpin."
It has been many years since Changliu Kingdom was defeated.
Over the years, they have been working in low positions, trying to please the Cangyun Kingdom in every possible way.
But Xie Suzhi suggested that the emperor ignore it.
"The Changliu Kingdom, which is so vengeful, admits its mistakes and apologizes now, not because they really regret it, but because they want to lie dormant. Once they have the opportunity, they will definitely counterattack."
Therefore, the emperor's attitude towards Changliu Kingdom has always been to ignore it.
They would send envoys to deliver gifts almost every year, but the envoys could not even see the emperor.
Shen Ningning's eyes darkened: "Go out and have a look."
Everyone quickly followed her and rushed to the front hall.
The Xie family, headed by Xie Suzhi, had already stopped at the door.
The guests gathered around with cold eyes.
"Thank you, Prime Minister, our King of the Sun learned about Princess Funing and Ji, and specially asked the ministers to come with congratulatory gifts."
The leader of the envoy from the Changliu Kingdom was named Xiumu. He had a round face, small eyes, a mustache, and a hypocritical smile.
Xie Suzhi is nearly fifty, but he is still tall and straight as jade.
He glanced at the six large open boxes behind Hideki.
It was filled with antlers and other rare treasures.
Xie Suzhi's tone was cold, showing a sternness that was neither angry nor authoritative.
"My daughter has nothing to do with you, let alone accept your gifts. Just go back to where you came from."
Xiumu was not angry when he was humiliated in public. Instead, he smiled and handed over his hand.
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, Your Highness the Princess may like the gifts we bring. Why don't you let us meet?"
Xie Mingxu took a step forward, his aura was cold and stern, and his whole body was filled with the murderous aura infiltrated from the battlefield.
Seeing him, Xiumu took half a step back with lingering fear, his eyes rolling around, not knowing what bad idea he had.
Xie Mingxu said in a tough tone: "Either you leave, or I beat you out. It's your choice."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Mingan took the guard's sword from the side and handed it to his elder brother.
Xiumu frowned.
He looked at the Xie family in private.
Brothers Xie Mingxu and Xie Ming'an are both good at martial arts. They stand next to Xie Suzhi on the left and right, and are not easy to mess with.
Second Master Xie was not a vegetarian either. He saw that his fists were clenched, and his son Xu Jingxi behind him seemed to be coming up with some clever plan, whispering a few words in Second Master Xie's ear.
I saw Mr. Xie looking at Xiumu's legs with a faint murderous look.
Xiumu was shocked.
Are they planning to make him disabled and then kick him out?
The one with the most hateful eyes was Fang Qingdai.
The Changliu Kingdom jointly worked together to kill General Liang, but they haven't yet settled the accounts with them!
If she hadn't considered that today was Shen Ningning's important day, she would have been the first to take action.
Xie Suzhi raised his hand to stop everyone's anger.
"Today is Ning Ning's wedding banquet. Everything must be auspicious and not bloody."
After saying these words, the tense atmosphere in the scene subsided.
"Dad, don't worry about me. Chang Liu is a young boy who once hurt our famous general and caused so many people to be displaced. They are so hateful. I don't want them to appear at my wedding banquet. Someone come and beat them out!"
Shen Ningning took Ye Changyi and other ladies around the corner of the corridor.
Everyone looked sideways and saw the leader of the girl, who was dressed in a dress as elegant as a giant, with a slim figure, dark eyebrows and red lips.
When not smiling, you look more bright and dignified.
As soon as she spoke, the princess's secret guards hiding around came out in full force.
The sword was pointed at the envoy of Changliu Kingdom.
Xiumu's expression changed, and he narrowed his eyes with shrewd eyes.
"Your Royal Highness, I, Hideki, have come here to congratulate you on the order of the King of Japan."
Shen Ningning ignored them, and the secret guards approached step by step. Xiumu and the others could only retreat with difficulty.
Lu Shaoyuan yelled, "Get out! Cangyun Kingdom does not welcome you."
There was a tall guard behind Xiumu, with an angry look in his eyes.
At this moment, Xiumu raised his voice, stared at Shen Ningning and said, "Your Highness Princess can dislike Changliu Kingdom, but don't you care about the illness of your Crown Prince?"
Shen Ningning's watery eyes rippled, and she sent him a cold look.
The secret guard stopped.
Xiumu smiled secretly: "We know that your Crown Prince is suffering from a crazy disease. Coincidentally, we have a secret medicine in Changliu Kingdom to treat this emergency."
Liang Yici scolded: "You lie, you are all ruthless and ungrateful people in Changliu Kingdom, and you will take revenge for the slightest grievance. We have defeated you before, will you use medicine to save our Crown Prince?"
She looked at Shen Ningning, a little anxious: "Princess, don't believe them!"
Xiumu was prepared.
He waved his hand, and the guard behind him took out a small box from his arms.
It was only the size of a palm.
After opening it, there was a blood-red pearl as big as a little finger.
"General Xie Mingxu and General Xie Dizhi often deal with our country, so they should recognize it. What kind of treasure is this?" Xiumu smiled.
After seeing it clearly, Xie Mingxu and Xie Erye both changed their expressions.
"Zhentianzhu?"
Legend has it that Changliu Kingdom was originally a celestial being who cast a precious pearl, and finally formed the country.
And the place where the precious pearl fell turned into a blood-red pool of water.
After years of accumulation, the river clams raised in the depths of this pool can produce beads of this color.
And the lifespan of a river clam is only two years at most, and the longest is no more than five years.
In Changliu Kingdom, it is said that such a pearl will only appear in fifty years.
Zhentianzhu is ground into powder and mixed into medicine to prolong people's life.
The father of King Da Ri, the Old Heavenly King, is nearly ninety years old but still alive. According to legend, he is relying on the Heavenly Bead to prolong his life.
