"What are you thinking about?"
"I asked you to raise it like a child."
Fan Li couldn't laugh or cry.
Only then did he realize that Wu Zhui was somewhat delusional about being persecuted. But why should he bear the blame for King Chu?
Wu Zhui was stunned.
"Raising children……?"
She has lived for thousands of years, but she is still a single dragon without a mate, let alone any offspring.
"Yes, just raising children."
"Who stipulates that the Great Chu Kingdom can only have one sacred beast that protects the country?"
"You raised Tuantuan, and in the future mother and son will protect Da Chu together. Is there any problem?"
"You can withdraw all the expenses for raising a child from Da Chu's treasury at will. If it is not enough, I will give you the key to Fan's private treasury."
After a few brief explanations, Fan Li dismissed Wu Zhui.
He was really exhausted today.
Just when he was about to lie down and have a good sleep, a guard in the palace reported: "A decree has been sent from the palace, and the second master is invited to come to the palace to discuss important matters."
…
…………
Imperial Palace, Chengming Hall.
Memorials piled up like mountains, but Xiang Chong didn't even look at them.
He rubbed his hands in excitement.
"If this happens, I will be able to take over the power of the government!"
Two women stood beside Xiang Chong.
A graceful and noble person, it was his mother, Queen Mother Li.
Another woman wore a green robe with her hair tied up and a long sword hanging from her waist. She was dressed in a neutral style, with an aloof look on her cold and beautiful face.
Empress Dowager Li smiled and said: "With Holy Lord Hanyue personally taking action, this matter will definitely happen!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Xiang Chong nodded repeatedly: "Holy Master Hanyue is the number one female swordsman in the world, a third-level powerhouse in the Mahayana Realm. With the Holy Master personally taking action, that kid Fan Li can't even jump around for a few days!"
Being praised by the emperor of a country, Han Yue did not react with flattery.
Her expression was still cold and arrogant, but her thin lips moved slightly.
"There are three thousand avenues, but the sword is the most powerful."
"Although I am the third level of the Mahayana realm, if I face a strong person of the fourth level of the Mahayana realm, I still have the power to fight back!"
Xiang Chong was stunned when he heard this, and then he was ecstatic!
He bowed and saluted: "If you can cut off the traitor, the Holy Lord will be my benefactor. I am willing to worship the Holy Lord as my adoptive mother!"
Holy Lord Hanyue was finally moved.
She looked at Xiang Chong in surprise and then at Queen Mother Li.
During this trip to Chu, she was entrusted by her friend Holy Master Jin De to take care of Xiang Chong's mother and son.
Holy Master Jin De was injured previously, and another copy of his natal magic weapon "Female Virtue" was lost. He was about to refining the magic weapon and recuperate from the injury, so he had no time to separate himself.
"Is this...appropriate?" Han Yue asked with some expectation and some concern.
She practiced hard for hundreds of years and finally achieved something. She was invited by Yaoguang, the first saint, to enter the Pure Land of Sanskrit to continue her practice.
Han Yue has never experienced the bustling fireworks in the human world.
In her heart, she actually yearned for it.
What a noble and glorious position it is to be the adopted mother of the emperor of a country?
But at this moment, in front of Empress Dowager Li, her biological mother, how could she have the nerve to accept Xiang Chong as her adopted son?
Queen Mother Li suddenly said: "My son, why are you talking so ridiculously?"
Han Yue frowned when she heard this, feeling even more disgraced and almost walking away.
Empress Dowager Li then said: "The Holy Lord personally takes action for you. No matter whether the matter succeeds or fails, I will be very kind to you! How can you say that after the matter is completed, you can worship your adoptive mother again? If the Holy Lord does not dislike it, you should kneel down right now. Perform filial piety!"
After saying that, Queen Mother Li looked at Han Yue expectantly, as if begging her to accept her.
"Ah? This?" Holy Lord Hanyue's anger subsided, and there was a hint of joy in his heart.
Xiang Chong, as if he had rehearsed it long ago, immediately made a sign of awakening, knelt on his knees, and bowed his head.
"Mother, please come on!"
"My son Xiang Chong, meet your mother!"
Holy Lord Hanyue took a step back in shock, watching Xiang Chong kowtow like he was pounding garlic.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty... My child, please get up quickly."
Damn it, what's going on?
Fan Li had just arrived outside Chengming Hall when he saw Xiang Chong, who was wearing a dragon robe and looking like a majestic emperor, actually kneeling on the ground and kowtowing to a guy dressed as a man?
Hello? Royal dignity? Does the emperor look good?
Have you fed them to dogs?
"The Duke of Jin is here!"
Hearing the little eunuch singing "Hey", Xiang Chong, who was kneeling on the ground, quickly got up and stood up again.
Fan Li did not wait for Xiang Chong to announce his presence and strode into the Chengming Hall.
"What do you want from me?" Fan Li said coldly.
What is a powerful minister?
What is domineering?
As long as Fan Li gives the emperor a little color, he will not be regarded as "powerful"!
During this period, Xiang Chong had already seen Fan Li's methods, but he was conscious and did not dare to conflict with him head-on.
"Mr. Jin, let me introduce you. This is the Holy Lord Hanyue of the Sanskrit Pure Land." Xiang Chong smiled with a smile on his face, acting affable.
Holy Lord Hanyue raised his chin slightly and glanced sideways at Fan Li from the corner of his eye.
The arrogance is leaking!
When Fan Li heard the word 'Holy Lord', his reaction was also great.
However, he had a fierce look on his face.
It seems that with his mere cultivation in the Qi Refining Realm, he dares to draw his sword against Holy Lord Hanyue?
Just listen to Fan Li saying word by word: "Qin, chess, calligraphy, painting, sword, arrow, which one are you?"
There are ten holy masters in the Pure Land of Sanskrit, namely:
Supreme, life, piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, sword, arrow, law, and blood.
The blood is the Holy Lord Blood Phoenix, who has died.
The holy master of books is Jin De, and the holy master of law is Qingqiu.
Fan Li has never seen the other seven holy masters.
Fan Li asked this question because the person who kidnapped Xiang Ning and injured Wu Zui some time ago was the Six Saint Masters of "Qin, Chess, Calligraphy, Painting, Sword, and Arrow".
"I am the Holy Master of Swords."
After Han Yue finished speaking, her expression became more and more arrogant, as if she was waiting for Fan Li to worship her.
The next second, she felt murderous intent sweeping towards her like a huge wave!
Holy Lord Hanyue broke into a cold sweat and was about to draw his sword to face the enemy, but his murderous intent dissipated in an instant.
Where did such tyrannical murderous intent come from? !
She was confused, but her eyes were attracted to Fan Li.
Fan Li was staring at Holy Lord Hanyue with a smile on his face, looking harmless to humans and animals.
illusion?
How could it be possible for him?
Holy Lord Hanyue doubted himself in his heart. Could it be that he had not been able to advance to the fourth level of the Mahayana realm for many years, and that his mind was unbalanced and there were signs of being possessed?
Thinking of this, she didn't take Fan Li to heart.
After all, just refining qi is not worth mentioning.
"cough!"
Xiang Chong coughed dryly, attracting their attention.
"Duke Jin, the Han Dynasty sent an envoy to hand over his credentials."
"To celebrate the descent of the divine beast from the sky, Emperor Han changed the name of his reign to 'Yankang' and held a celebration ceremony."
Speaking of this, Xiang Chong felt his cheeks get hot.
Among the emperors of the Three Kingdoms, he was the only one who had not even seen the shadow of the mythical beast, let alone conquered it.
"The Emperor of the Han Dynasty invited me to Chang'an to attend the celebration."
"But you also know that I am indeed... a little inconvenienced, so I would like to trouble Duke Jin to go for me."
At this point, Xiang Chong finally became excited.
"Holy Lord Hanyue represents the Pure Land of Sanskrit Sound and will also attend the ceremony."
"The Holy Master's cultivation is profound and unpredictable. Jin Gong and the Holy Master are walking together, so safety is guaranteed!"
Fan Li felt his eyelids twitching.
Foolproof?
It must be dead without a complete body, right?
But Fan Li really couldn't refuse this trip to the Han Dynasty as an envoy.
Just before entering the palace, he also received secret letters from Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan, begging him to come to Chang'an in person!
