Peacock Villas is located at the foot of Cangshan Mountain, on the bank of the river, the city is as its name suggests, warm and charming. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
It is an ancient city, and many of the walls of the city are carved with mysterious and abstract text symbols, which is said to have a long history.
The Moro people revered nature, believing that these words and symbols were given by the gods of nature, and they took great care of them, so much so that although these walls were badly weathered, they were repaired many times and successfully preserved.
Along the sides of the ditches, the ditches are densely paved with smooth streets, and you can see exquisite domed houses, magnificent palaces, towering towers, and of course, peacocks walking leisurely.
The peacock is the national bird of Moro, and ordinary people cannot raise it, but these peacocks are raised in the palace and taken out by people to let it go.
Located in the southeast of the city, the palace is magnificent in scale, and the exterior walls are beautifully carved with red, green and yellow color patterns, which looks solemn and mysterious.
At this time, in the palace council hall, a beautiful girl was sitting, and a man and a woman were standing below.
The girl was tall and fair-skinned, dressed in a dark green gown, tightly wrapping her shoulders and breasts, while her arms, neck, shoulders and lower abdomen were completely exposed, her hem hung down to her knees, and her forehead, earlobes, wrists, fingers, and ankles were adorned with various gold and silver ornaments, which made her more and more charming and sensual.
The girl is the current empress of the Moro Empire, Wu Qianyu, but that charming and pretty face is full of worries at this time, and it seems that she is preoccupied.
"Uncle Liang, is there any news from the people who sent for help?" Her voice was as pleasant as a wind chime.
"Back to Your Majesty, the news has come back, but only Rakocha, Xie Minglan, and Feng Qingyun have given a letter of approval and promised to help." The middle-aged man standing at the bottom replied, "It's just that they won't be there until tomorrow!" β
The man was dressed in a blue military uniform, dressed as a military attachΓ©.
"But tomorrow will be the day of the witch fight." Hearing this, the girl sighed softly, and her sad face became even more sad.
"Han Xingye has been too sharp in recent years, almost unrivaled, and his power is huge, there are many henchmen, and many folk witchcraft masters, when they heard that he wanted to fight witches, they all quietly retreated. Even the three people who should do this only agreed to help, and did not explicitly say that they would participate in the competition on your behalf. After Wang Liang finished speaking, he was silent. Although he is in charge of the palace guards and the pro-army leader, he has great power, but compared with Han Xingye, he is still weak.
"Is there no news from Beiyan?" Wu Qianyu's expression suddenly perked up, and he asked again.
Jiang Shuai also promised to find a way as soon as possible, but he has not yet received the exact news.
"Alas, he's under more pressure than I am, and I'm still making trouble for him." Wu Qianyu chuckled helplessly when he heard this, and then said in an angry tone: "Han Xing's wild wolf ambition is a debt of trust in my mother so much at the beginning!" β
"Han Xingye is very deep in the city, and he was seriously injured twice for the sake of the emperor, so he can get the trust and reuse of the emperor. Who would have thought that under his disguise, there would be such great ambitions. The person who spoke was the beautiful woman at the bottom of the head, named Wu Fangqiong, who served as the secretary of the house, in charge of all affairs in the palace, and was the sister of the former emperor Wu Fangyan, and also Wu Qianyu's aunt.
"Aunt Joan!" Wu Qianyu looked at her, her expression full of confusion.
Wu Fangqiong looked at her niece with a haggard face, and her heart was indescribably distressed. After all, she is only a 19-year-old girl, and she has just ascended the throne, and she has encountered a vicious battle, and she is still anxious about adults, not to mention this sinister girl who doesn't know people's hearts.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. If no one fights tomorrow, I'll have a fight against that Han Xingye! β
"Aunt Joan!" Wu Qianyu's eyes turned red all of a sudden, she had just experienced the pain of losing her mother, and she was facing tremendous pressure, which almost made her emotionally collapse.
"Child, don't cry, you are the Empress of Moro, even if you are sad in your heart, cheer up and do not let anyone see your weakness. We'll all have your back, won't we? Lord Wang! Wu Fangqiong calmly persuaded Wu Qianyu, and then glanced at Wang Liang again.
Seeing this, Wang Liang bowed down solemnly, and shouted in his mouth: "The lower officials are deeply favored by the emperor, and they will definitely go to the soup to repay them." Your Majesty, please rest assured! β
"Of course I believe you! But Han Xingye's strength is too strong, Aunt Qiong, you-"
"Your Majesty, rest assured! Although my witchcraft is not as good as my sister's, it is not necessarily weaker than Han Xingye. Wu Fangqiong was under great pressure in her heart, but on the surface, she pretended to be relaxed, and then asked Wang Liang: "By the way, Han Xingye seems to be very quiet recently, what is he busy with?" β
Wang Liang looked a little indignant: "According to our secret observation, he has lived in seclusion during this time, and I heard that he is preparing for the competition. However, his henchmen jumped out a lot, making the government and the opposition smoky. Hum! β
"It's just a bunch of clowns jumping off the beam, wait for a chance to clean them up slowly in the future!" Wu Fangqiong sneered.
In fact, during this period of time, she and Wang Liang's life was not very easy, and the candidates to participate in the witch fight were not decided for a long time, which made many officials become ambiguous, and they were no longer as firm as before, and chose to support the empress Wu Qianyu, while the officials in the witch camp became more and more arrogant, and they were also cynical and sarcastic about Wang Liang and Wu Fangqiong's ministers. Wang Liang tried to argue several times, but failed to gain the upper hand.
Suddenly, Wu Qianyu's voice sounded in the hall: "Aunt Qiong, tomorrow's competition, I have decided to play in person!" β
"You're going to play in person? No, no, no! Wu Fangqiong immediately spoke out to dissuade when she heard this, although Wu Qianyu's strength was good, it was too much worse than Han Xingye. You must know that generally speaking, although a wizard has strong mental power, his physical strength is insufficient, and Han Xingye is likely to be a ninth-level martial artist, even if a wizard of the same level faces him, it is difficult to have a chance of winning, not to mention that Wu Qianyu's witchcraft is not as good as the other party.
"My mother said that even the best jade must be carefully polished in order to shine brightly!" Wu Qianyu looked at Aunt Qiong and Wang Liang who were anxious, and her charming face became divine and awe-inspiring: "Although I am not Han Xingye's opponent, I will not bow to him!" The dignity of the Wu family must not be lost in my hands...... It's better to break the jade than to be complete! β
The girl's voice grew louder and louder, and finally became sonorous and powerful, like wind chimes blown by a strong wind.
"Your Majesty, you-" Wu Fangqiong and the others shouted to dissuade, but suddenly found a chamberlain hurriedly walking in outside the door of the council hall.
The chamberlain lowered his head, presented Wu Qianyu with an object, and then said in a trembling voice:
"Your Majesty, Beiyan is here!" (To be continued.) )
