The next morning, Qianlan Imperial Capital, Qiancheng.
As the sky dawned, explosive news came out of the imperial capital.
Now the great protector of the empire, Duke Han Feng, has returned to the palace, and he has successfully attained the Dao of Hongwu.
Han Feng became the third superpower to set foot in the Qianlan Empire in the past two years!
After the painful blow of the Battle of the South China Sea, the empire's borders were filled with smoke and war, and the war with the Hundred Nations Alliance suffered setbacks one after another.
The top management of the Qianlan Empire had been in a downturn for a long time, and even failed to recover for a time.
But as time went by, the Qianlan Empire seized a large amount of undigested resources from the ruins of the Martial God Clan.
In the next two years, it was quickly digested and released.
Nowadays, the empire has gradually given birth to a group of Japanese-level experts.
Afterwards, Zhennan King Duguhong and Ying King Zhu Yuanchen successively attained the Dao of Hongwu and set foot on Shenxu.
The Qianlan Empire's national power, although not inferior to its peak two years ago, is once again thriving.
This empire, which was about to fall into the abyss, stood up again from the edge of the cliff.
Now, the news that Han Feng, the Great Protector of the Empire, has become a Taoist priest, is naturally even more exciting.
Especially the senior officials of the Qianlan Empire have heard that Han Feng defeated the Dongxu God King and another Hongwu-level demon in a battle in the South China Sea. His strength was terrifying.
The opponent's talent is so evil, and now that he has set foot in the Hongwu Realm, his strength will definitely reach a higher level, and his strength is probably even higher than that of Dugu Hong and King Ying.
Han Feng only returned last night. Early this morning, the news had spread throughout the imperial capital and even began to spread rapidly outwards.
This is naturally the work of King Ying and Dugu Hong.
Today's Qianlan Empire has not fully recovered its vitality. Everyone in the empire needs such good news to boost the morale of the military and the people!
However, Han Feng didn't pay attention to the crazy news.
At this moment, he was standing in the center of the palace hall, paying tribute to Emperor Wu under the eyes of the officials.
In the huge Huangji Hall, all the officials are solemn and the atmosphere is solemn.
One after another, they looked at the young and stalwart figure standing in the center of the hall, with all kinds of complicated colors in their eyes.
Sigh, envy, excitement, jealousy, excitement...all kinds of emotions flashed through everyone's eyes.
But in the end, they all stayed on that trace of "awe" that couldn't be concealed!
The Lingwu Continent respects military force, and the Qianlan Empire also relies on military force to establish its country.
Although the man in front of him is young, he has fought for the Qianlan Empire, turned the tide several times, and saved the empire from danger.
His contribution to the empire is so great that no ordinary person can match it in a few lifetimes.
The other party was able to be made a Duke and worshiped as a Great Protector. Such a "superior" official position relied not only on merit, but also on his super strength.
Enlightenment of Hongwu is an elusive dream for many practitioners.
But they witnessed with their own eyes that this young man climbed to the highest peak of martial arts step by step.
The awe in my heart arose spontaneously.
At this moment, Emperor Wu, who was sitting on the dragon throne, had gray hair on his temples and wrinkles began to appear on his face.
He is much older than he was two years ago.
Obviously, in the past two years, the emperor of the empire has been under unimaginable pressure.
But at this moment, when he saw the imposing young man standing like a mountain in front of the palace, Emperor Wu showed a long-lost bright smile on his face.
"Great Protector, just come back!"
This was the first sentence Emperor Wu said when he saw Han Feng. Although it was simple, it contained profound meaning.
In the court hall, the monarchs and ministers greeted each other with courtesy and greetings. Without much greeting, Han Feng took the initiative to go to the Tianyuan Dynasty to participate in the Lingwu Conference.
All the civil and military ministers of the empire know that the Lingwu Conference is of great significance to the empire. Looking at the empire, only Han Feng can take on this important task.
At this moment, Emperor Wu was ready to play.
Because time is tight, Han Feng will set off tomorrow.
So Emperor Wu went to the palace
A banquet was held in the middle, and hundreds of officials were invited to accept the Korean style and practice it for him.
That night, Emperor Wu sat in the main seat, but asked Han Feng, Duguhong and King Ying to sit beside him and be level with him.
Even his concubines, princes, and princesses could only sit in the side seats.
No one was dissatisfied with this arrangement, but they took it for granted.
The revival of the empire is expected, and the return of Korean style made the atmosphere of this banquet quite lively. Everyone drank and drank, which was a rare joy.
Emperor Wu even accepted the toasts from the ministers, and gradually became too drunk, and finally returned to the palace first.
But after Emperor Wu left, the banquet continued, and the officials became more and more cheerful.
Before Han Feng sat down at the banquet, officials who came to propose a toast to him never stopped coming, regardless of whether they were civil or military, they all came to pay their respects.
Among them were senior military officials, as well as leaders of the civilian camp, such as Shangguan Qingfeng, Feng Muyun and Yuchiyan.
There are also Han Feng's old friends, Jun Beixuan, Chu Baoyu, the old director of the Hanlin Academy, etc.
Since experiencing the battle on the coastal battlefield, I have seen the three ancestors of Shangguan Hongtian, Fengxiao and Yuchixin leading the strong men of various races.
As well as Mo Chengkong and Gu Huntian, leading the powerful men of the State Church and the God of War, they resolutely blew themselves up and became the empire's last line of defense.
Han Feng was deeply shocked, and now he sat in a high position in front of the palace, overlooking the civil and military ministers of the empire.
Han Feng's mind and vision are completely different.
The military camp and the civilian camp are both the cornerstones of the empire, with the former defending the country and the latter governing the country.
Those who protect the country cannot govern it, and those who govern the country cannot protect it, both will lose balance.
On the contrary, the two compete with each other, which will promote the strength of the empire as long as it does not exceed a certain limit.
As long as we can stand together unswervingly when the empire faces crisis.
They are all loyal ministers and good generals, a blessing to the people!
This thought arose in my heart because of the grudges I had with some of the family forces or individuals in the past.
In this glass of wine, it was washed away invisible.
When Han Feng had a clear idea in his mind, a young figure stood in front of him with a wine glass in hand, a shy smile on his face.
"gentlemen!"
The person who came was none other than Dingxian King Zhu Hongyi. No, he should be the "Xianwang" now.
Because a year ago, King Xian went to the east, accompanied the army to conquer the Hundred Kingdoms Alliance, and achieved great military exploits. Now he was promoted from "prefecture king" to "prince" by Emperor Wu.
As Han Feng occupied an unshakable position in the court, Duguhong and King Ying secretly protected him.
Zhu Hongyi's meridians have recovered and he can practice cultivation, which has been announced to the world.
Moreover, Zhu Hongyi's talent is extraordinary, and he has achieved it in just a few years.
Zhu Hongyi, who has just turned sixteen, has already reached the nine-star level and is about to break through to the moon level.
Han Feng was surrounded by ministers just now, and Zhu Hongyi had no chance to get close to his husband until now.
Hearing the familiar call in his ear, Han Feng raised his head and looked at Zhu Hongyi in front of him.
He was stunned at first, then frowned in astonishment, and finally sighed secretly.
Seeing Han Feng's reaction, Zhu Hongyi was stunned, stepped forward and grabbed Han Feng's sleeve, and said nervously: "Sir, what's wrong with you? Is there something Hongyi did wrong?"
Han Feng smiled bitterly and waved his hands, not because he felt that Zhu Hongyi did not do well, but because he felt that the other party... was not good-looking!
It seems to be because of Zhu Hongyi's special "Phantom" spiritual vein.
Today's Zhu Hongyi, as he grows older and improves his cultivation, not only does he not develop the sharp edges and heroic spirit that a man should have.
On the contrary, she is tall and slender, with a beautiful face, white and tender skin, and charming eyebrows. The slightly upturned corners of her eyes actually have a naturally charming and stunning look.
This boy is actually more beautiful than the woman.
At this moment, when I saw Han Feng frowning and sighing, and Zhu Hongyi's nervous frowning expression, there was something so touching that I felt pity for him.
This is actually quite different from the "king's appearance" that Han Feng imagined.
"Ahem..."
Quietly undressing oneself
Rolling back, Han Feng smiled again and comforted: "You did a good job, sir, I am very satisfied!"
After hearing this, Zhu Hongyi felt relieved, and after a conversation with Han Feng, the other party quietly gave him something.
Encouraged, Zhu Hongyi clenched his fists excitedly and said, "Well, sir, Hongyi will definitely work harder!"
Han Feng, who was sitting on the seat, seemed to be a little drunk. He covered his forehead with his hands to block his eyes.
I can't help it, I really can't see it.
The emperor's posture that he had carefully cultivated turned out to be so charming and moving at this moment, and even the movements of clenching his fists were so weak and cute.
Han Feng could only comfort himself, it didn't matter, there was a female empress in history, so what's wrong with being beautiful?
After Zhu Hongyi left, another person came to toast, which surprised Han Feng.
The person who came was wearing a python robe, a jade belt, and a golden crown. It was the prince Zhu Hongyu.
This man had repeatedly opposed Han Feng in the past. He once regarded Han Feng as an ant outside Beiyang Pass and almost killed him.
Now when he walked in front of Han Feng again, the master of the East Palace couldn't hide his nervousness.
When Han Feng looked at him, there was a trace of invisible sweat on his forehead.
This shows the deterrence Han Feng brings to the opponent now.
"Great Protector, I...I would like to offer you a glass of wine and thank you for your contribution to the empire!"
Zhu Hongyu gritted his teeth, raised his glass with both hands, and toasted to Han Feng.
Although he is the prince of the East Palace, his status is higher than that of the officials.
However, the Qianlan Empire has a "super-grade official title", and the former old war god, Cang Ling, was all super-grade. .
Today's Han Feng, as the great protector of the empire, is also of a high rank and worthy of the prince's respect.
Facing the nervous Zhu Hongyu, Han Feng seemed much calmer.
He stood up and returned the gift, raised his glass and touched it lightly, then drank it all in one gulp.
"Your Majesty, you're welcome."
Han Feng's calm attitude made Zhu Hongyu secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
After saying a few polite words to Han Feng, he turned around and left. Under Zhu Hongyu's hesitant eyes, he still couldn't help but feel a hint of unwillingness.
Zhu Hongyu thought that he hid it well.
However, in the eyes of Han Feng, whose strength has now entered the realm of Hongwu and Shenxu.
His every move, even the slightest fluctuation in emotion, will be infinitely magnified and easily seen through.
Putting down his wine glass, Han Feng shook his head gently, but didn't bother to pay attention.
Even if he is the prince, even if he is unwilling, what can he do?
PS: I finished six chapters today, but I was exhausted from ten chapters yesterday.
