Heavenly Dao Formula Chapter 80: Last Hope (Part 1)
Two days later, with the canonization of the official document, Princess Quang Binh officially announced her entry into the city. This event caused a wave of waves in the smoky Yancheng, and the red satin hanging on the streets and lanes also added to the unchanging gray-brown tone in the city. A slight change. For a while, everyone talked about it, and the main topic was nothing more than the appearance of the princess and who the princess would choose as his son-in-law.
Of course, the excitement didn't last long before it dissipated.
Because that is the high princess.
She will not have any intersection with the people in the city, nor will she bring the slightest change to life.
Fengyang Villa on the northern outskirts of Jinxia was originally the residence of the emperor when he visited Shenzhou, but now it has become the residence of the princess.
It is difficult for most people to step there in their lives.
And the princess's object will not be chosen among ordinary people.
There are only a few children of the right age in Yancheng who can be ranked. No matter who they choose, they have little to do with the lower class.
Without a basis for discussion, the topic naturally loses its vitality for communication.
Just when the Jinxia people thought the matter ended in this way, another shocking news three days later caused a sensation in the whole city.
The murder of innocents in Huzhi County, Gaoshan County, and his evil deeds attracted evil spirits. Fortunately, the princess came forward to prevent the harm from further expanding. One of the alchemists named Xia Fan not only slayed one evil evil spirit, but also protected the princess at a critical time. As the first merit, he was promoted to three levels and became one of the fastest alchemists in the Privy Council.
At the same time, Yuan was transferred from Shenzhou due to the dereliction of the command, and Xia Fan took over.
Wei Wushuang, Luo Youer, and Wang Renzhi who participated in this case were also promoted to the seventh rank.
is different from the arrival of the princess. Whether it is a crime committed by the county magistrate or an evil attack, it is all happening around the people. As soon as the news arrived, it spread all over the streets and alleys. Almost everyone was discussing this incredible case, and Xia Fan became one of the focuses.
After all, in the eyes of the people, these alchemists in black robes rarely did any good things. Once they appeared, they would be unknown. It was either financial loss or disaster. I didn't expect that they would sometimes do practical things.
The reputation of the Privy Council has improved a lot for a while.
Some people even dug up the news that Xia Fan paid for the relief of poor residents of Gaoshan County.
This made his reputation soar, and it can be said that he has gone from being silent to being known overnight.
The side effect is that there are so many pro-matchmakers who come to the door and say that they are about to block the door of the Privy Council residential area.
This is the news Wei Wushuang told him when he came to visit.
"I think you and the younger sister should not go back first. Now you are the top three choices in the minds of women waiting to be married in the city. If you don't want to get married too early, don't harm others."
It seems that my fellow villagers are still brooding on this point.
"Not the first choice?"
"Above you, there are Grand Prince Wang and Talented Zhou."
"What about you, did anyone say kiss?"
Wei Wushuang showed a secret expression of joy, "Brother Xia, this is a secret."
It seems that fellowship is vulnerable to the girl.
Xia Fan once asked Ning Wanjun, since the Privy Council turned a blind eye to similar incidents, why was it willing to grant rewards instead of completely suppressing opponents, and the other party's answer was that there was not only one voice in the Privy Council.
"Not to mention that there is a huge gap between the Privy Council and Gyeonggi Prefecture. Even in Gyeonggi Prefecture, there are many opinions on evil spirits. Don't talk about you or me. Even the third rank guardianship may not be able to figure out the above intentions. "
"Why is this?"
"It's probably a gap." Ning Wanjun said very bluntly, "In the more than 20 years since the fall of the Eternal Kingdom, the Privy Council had almost 30% of the casualties in order to control the evils that spread everywhere to be acceptable. Its importance is self-evident within the scope of the privy. At that time, no matter where it was, there was no lack of merit and the opportunity to climb to the sky. Unlike now, there are not many ways for promotion in some places in the Privy Council, and the above-mentioned control power will also vary. The decline will naturally cause disagreements in the process."
That's why Shang Yuan's performance is so contradictory. He now knows that this is an aging bureaucracy. It does not refer to personnel turnover, but ideologically.
The other so-called rewards, in essence, are exchanges that conceal the origin of evil spirits—the Privy Council does not want people to discover that evil spirits can be artificially created.
But Xia Fan discovered that, in a sense, there are no natural evils in this world.
The grottoes in Gaoshan County have been sealed and banned. However, the characteristics of evil determinates do not need such complicated facilities to achieve similar effects.
The so-called cause, there must be an effect, whether ghosts or demons, are inseparable from human behavior and activities.
It is not something that can be achieved by a magic trick or a wooden sword to make evil spirits banned.
……
"Master May, this is today's ration." Shan Hui knelt down and handed a piece of dried flour to the princess.
"Thank you." Wu Yueyao took the bread, then raised her hand and rubbed it on Shanhui's long ear. The latter immediately closed his eyes and shook his tail from side to side.
Although May Haruka cannot understand the connection between "rubbing ears" and "feeling comfortable", since the other person likes it, she will still try to satisfy him as much as possible.
, after all, hiding in this narrow and dark warehouse, every comfort is precious.
"Is this the food you found for the princess?" The blue-faced Oniaki who was guarding May's side frowned, "Even if the current situation is tough, Master Miko can't eat such shabby things!"
"It's simple, why don't you go look for it?" Shanhui gave Naoqing a white eye. "Unless the corner of your head in the way is sawn off, let alone bring food back, it is estimated that you will live continuously. I'm going to throw it out."
"Stupid dog, I only need one knife to cut you." Naoqing said coldly.
"The premise is that you can catch up," Shan Hui smirked, "At your speed~IndoMTL.com~I'll talk about it in the next life."
"Don't quarrel." Wu Yueyao stopped the dispute between the two. "In order to get here, we have sacrificed many people-and in our hometown, there are more lives. Compared with what they have suffered. Suffering, why don’t I eat poorly?"
After she finished speaking, she put the noodles in her mouth little by little. The cakes were very dry and tasted a bit like sawdust, and at the same time they had a bad smell. But even so, she didn't vomit a bit. This is the food Shanhui found at the risk of her life, and she can't waste it.
After finished eating, May Haruka licked his dry lips, "We can't drag it anymore."
The princes rebelled with troops, and the country was full of smoke. In order to reconnect with the land of the mainland, they sent many ships, but in the end there was no news.
In desperation, she had to personally board the ship and cross the ocean. Unexpectedly, she encountered evil spirits. The ship was destroyed before it docked. There were only ten survivors.
I thought that when I finally arrived on the other side, I didn't expect that this side had become a strange land.
The original dynasty no longer exists, and the Qi Kingdom territory where they are located has also become extremely dangerous. Not only are enemies of the prince kingdom active, but the demon society is directly rounded up by the Privy Council. They have contacted the prefecture, animal husbandry, and Gyeonggi, but the diplomatic documents they send out are always sinking into the sea, but the exchange is actually the assassination of the enemy.
After more than two months, not only did they exhaust all their entanglements, but six others died one after another.
Wu Yueyao also feels that her physical condition is getting worse every day, hiding in Tibet has caused the nerves of everyone to be highly tense, and coupled with the lack of food and clothing, dragging it on is tantamount to sitting and waiting for death.
What gives them a glimmer of hope is the news that the country’s three princesses have arrived here.
If you are the real master of Qiguo, you may remember that the two sides have had contact.
