Chapter 385 The Sincerity of King Yan
Dayan had just become independent and did not yet have strict discipline and hierarchies. In addition, Zhao Changying, as a rough guy, had always been informal and liked to call his subordinates brothers.
Therefore, the court of Dayan is currently a grass-roots team composed of a group of rebels.
As soon as the Daqi envoy finished speaking, the ministers in the hall looked around and whispered. After all, most of them didn't know that Gu Xu had fled into Dayan territory.
"Quiet." Zhao Changying raised his hand and said in a loud voice.
Then he looked at the two Qi envoys: "You continue to speak."
Zhu Qiuyi stepped forward and followed the lines given to her by Princess Zhaoning, claiming that Dayan and Daqi had always been a unit with a shared destiny. , the blood between the two is thicker than water and inseparable. The current conflict is just due to a little misunderstanding.
The traitor named Gu Xu is the public enemy of the human race who colludes with ghosts and slaughters people, and is the real scourge of the wilderness. If he is not arrested as soon as possible, the consequences will be disastrous.
The Da Qi court hopes that King Yan can put aside his grudges, put the justice of the human race first, and work together to bring the evil thief Gu Xu to justice.
Daqi is also willing to promise that if King Yan is willing to agree to this request, then in the next few years, the two sides will coexist peacefully, non-aggression, and even trade cultivation resources.
After hearing Zhu Qiuyi's words, the officials of Dayan once again started to discuss.
It has to be said that for many Yan people, especially the pro-Qi faction, these conditions given by the Da Qi court undoubtedly touched their heartstrings.
They want peace, not war. In addition, the territory of Da Yan was relatively barren, and the rich natural resources of Da Qi Dynasty made them particularly yearn for it.
"Shut up, everyone." Zhao Changying raised his hand again and shouted sternly.
Then he looked at the two envoys in front of him and said in a cold voice: "The 'traitor' Gu Xu you call is now a guest of Dayan. He has served me, And he is protected by me. You regard him as a traitor and try to deal with him, just because you don't take me as the King of Yan seriously."
The two Daqi envoys obviously did not expect that Zhao Changying would behave so toughly.
The subjects of Dayan never expected that their king would protect an outsider like this.
But Zhu Qiuyi quickly regained her composure.
She looked up at Zhao Changying and said calmly: "That guy Gu Xu is insidious and cunning, good at disguising. King Yan, don't be deceived by his appearance. Maybe he will betray you soon." Yan, caused immeasurable losses to you."
Zhao Changying laughed: "Although I, Zhao Changying, am a rough man, I still think I have some sense of what kind of person Gu Xu is.
"Please go back!
"Go back and tell your master the truth, Dayan will never betray his guests. "
Zhu Qiuyi took a deep breath.
Zhao Changying's attitude was so determined. It was obviously impossible for him to hand over Gu Xu.
But the two of them had been in Jingxing before They had already failed in the mission and they really didn't want to fail again.
"Since King Yan is unwilling to cooperate, we have to investigate Gu Xu's whereabouts on our own."
As Zhu Qiuyi said this, she took out a small white porcelain bottle to "reminisce". Colorful smoke emerged from the mouth of the bottle and drifted towards the door of the palace, outlining vivid scenes that had happened in the past.
“That’s enough,” Zhao Changying shouted sharply, “You are investigating my guests on my territory and stealing Dayan’s secrets, without asking me, the King of Yan, if I agree.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Qiuyi and Que Juchang were instantly imprisoned in place by an invisible force, unable to move.
Their true energy was also blocked by Zhao Changying at this moment.
Zhu Qiuyi frowned.
She found that not only was she unable to perform any moves including the magical power "Chasing the Wind" at this time, but her connection with her natal magic weapon was also cut off.
The "True King" is so powerful and terrifying!
A sixth-level monk like Zhu Qiuyi, who is responsible for his own performance, is nothing more than an ant at his mercy.
"The two armies are fighting and the envoy will not be killed." At this critical moment, Zhu Qiuyi's tone of voice was still calm and composed, "King Yan, if the two of us die here, then you will definitely face the enemy. Da Qi’s anger.”
"Hahahaha Da Qi's anger," Zhao Changying looked up to the sky and laughed, as if he had heard the most absurd joke in the world, "My wife was also the imperial wife conferred by the Da Qi court. She died in Luojing City for no apparent reason. Did Da Qi show this so-called anger?"
Then he changed the topic: "However, I don't plan to kill you today. I still need you to go back to Luojing and take my words exactly as they were. To your princess.
“It’s just that you have to pay a small price for your actions today. ”
It was too late, but soon, Zhu Qiuyi and Que Juchang suddenly felt like the world was spinning, and their vision became distorted, as if they had fallen into a whirlpool in the deep sea, or stepped into another strange world. .
When everything returned to normal, the two found that all the true energy in their bodies had disappeared, and their meridians were empty
Zhao Changying actually used a miraculous way to silently erase their cultivation, turning them into powerless mortals.
“You actually——”
Que Juchang was shocked and angry, but he was afraid of King Yan’s power and had to hold back the words he was about to say. Zhu Qiuyi was still frightened.
If she guessed correctly, at that moment, Zhao Changying launched his "Dao Rules Domain" and modified the rules in the domain, removing the two of them from the rules. On the level of becoming a mortal.
Such a method can only be cracked by the True Lord himself and monks who are above him.
If nothing unexpected happens, she will never have the possibility of stepping into the extraordinary in her life.
Unknowingly, what Princess Zhaoning once said to her echoed in her mind again -
"There is discord within Da Yan, and many people are afraid of Da Qi's power. I hope to maintain peace and do not want to go to war with Da Qi."
"Zhao Changying must have been seriously injured. He has been very weak recently and rarely sees people in public."
"Gu Xu is not related to them. They should be happy to agree to our conditions."
Thinking of this, Zhu Qiuyi sighed softly.
She felt that she had to return to Luojing City to tell Her Royal Highness that there might be something wrong with her intelligence source.
…………
“Gu Xiaoyou, this is the sincerity Dayan gives you,” after the Daqi envoys left, Zhao Changying’s eyes fell on Gu Xu in the crowd. , with a faint smile on his face, "Come out and meet everyone!"
Everyone in the court also turned their heads and looked in the direction of Gu Xu.
Gu Xu took a deep breath.
He had expected that Zhao Changying would protect him in front of the Daqi envoys. But he never thought that Zhao Changying would directly destroy the cultivation of the two Daqi envoys in front of him.
He pondered for two seconds, reached out and took off his mask, then walked out of the team and came to the center of the hall.
With his mental perception ability far beyond that of ordinary people, he could clearly hear the secret discussions about him by everyone present.
"It turns out he is Gu Xu, he looks quite handsome."
"Just a pretty boy. I really don't know why Zhao Changying risked angering Da Qi to protect him."
"I heard that he is not yet twenty years old this year. At his age, he can possess the fourth level of cultivation, which is enough to be called a genius among geniuses. Even Her Royal Highness the Princess, who is known as the 'Reincarnation of the Saint', cannot compare He. "
"He is a more powerful being than the reincarnation of the saint. Have you heard about what happened a few days ago? He caused the amazing phenomenon of worship of thousands of fires. Lord Chongli regarded him as the incarnation of the great fire god in the human world, worshiped him and swore allegiance to him.
"Perhaps it is because of this that the king values him so much. ”
"The God of Fire is the ancestor of Dayan. How could the incarnation of the God of Fire be an outsider?"
"..."
Zhao Changying interrupted by shouting "Quiet" again. Everyone was whispering.
Then he stood up from his seat, walked down the steps, walked to Gu Xu, grabbed one of his hands, and introduced to everyone: "He is Gu Xu, one of the younger generations of the Da Qi Dynasty. The most dazzling and proud man of heaven, he once solved the case of the Lu family's murderous house in Qingzhou, faced off against the 'fierce god' level ghosts on Mount Yi, and rescued thousands of people from danger.
"He has also been there. He won the first place in the "Luoshui Conference". At a young age, he had master-level attainments in the art of talisman and seal script, and invented the "Fire Character", which benefited all people in the world.
"In addition, he has also been favored by the great God of Fire, and has a deep understanding of the rules of fire.
"However, a young genius like this, who served Daqi loyally, failed because of the king's Without trust, he was forced to flee from Luojing City and come to our Dayan.
"I, Zhao Changying, am just a vulgar warrior. I have never had any great skills. My previous achievements on the battlefield were all due to the help of everyone present.
"But , Regarding outstanding talents, I will never be like Emperor Da Qi Tianxing, who not only harbors doubts, but also accuses him of "unfounded" charges, forcing him to die.
“I will definitely spit on you and shake my hair, and treat you with sincerity.
"Luochuan, the head of Daqi's exorcism department, once hinted to me that Gu Xu's future achievements will be above those of saints, and he may even become stronger than me.
"Since such a young hero thinks highly of me , If you are willing to come to me, Dayan, then I have to gain his trust and not do anything that would be sorry for him.
"From today on, he is my guest at Dayan. Everyone present must treat him with the courtesy of a national scholar and must not show any disrespect to him."
Gu Xu stood beside him, Listening to Zhao Changying's impassioned speech.
He finally understood why Zhao Changying had such high prestige in Dayan - his eloquence and his method of winning over people's hearts were difficult for ordinary people to learn.
If Gu Xu hadn't read about five thousand years of history in his previous life, he might have grabbed Zhao Changying's hand and said with tears of gratitude: "I am wandering all over the world. I only regret that I have not met the Ming Lord before. If King Yan does not dislike it, I would like to Use the power of dogs and horses"
