Chapter 253: Public Opinion
In the palace of the Great Xia Empire, in a palace, Zhou Ke, the third prince of the Great Zhou Empire, was lazily lying on a chair squinting, and there was a maid behind him who was pinching his shoulders.
"It's so comfortable!" Zhou Ke muttered.
At this time, a young man dressed in white like snow walked in, this person was magnificent, elegant and extraordinary, like a Bodhi mirror platform, spotless.
When Zhou Ke saw this person, he immediately put away his lazy temperament, his eyes flashed with fine light, and he said with a smile on his face: "Zhibai is here, please take a seat." ”
"Your Highness Xie!" Ye Zhibai bowed slightly, and then sat down.
Zhou Ke shook his head and said, "Zhibai doesn't have to be polite to this prince!"
With that, Zhou Ke waved his hand to the maid behind him and motioned for her to leave.
After the maid left, Zhou Ke looked at Ye Zhibai opposite, and said, "How is it?" Zhibai, can you find out about the situation of the second prince?"
"I just heard some rumors!" Ye Zhibai frowned deeply, and muttered: "It is said that the second prince has not been out for seven years, I am afraid that he really went mad because of refining the gluttonous essence blood, His Royal Highness should know how powerful the killing intent contained in the gluttonous essence blood is, whoever refines and who dies, the second prince simply does not know whether to live or die." ”
Zhou Ke said with a happy face when he heard this: "Okay, that's good, without this second prince, the next generation of the Great Xia Empire will no longer be a threat at all." ”
Ye Zhibai raised his eyebrows, looked at Zhou Ke with a surprised expression, and said, "His Royal Highness seems to value this second prince of the Great Xia Empire very much?"
Zhou Ke sighed: "That's natural! Actually, in my opinion, the two princes of this generation of the Great Xia Empire. Among them, the Great Prince City is very deep, always cautious, and just a conservative person. But this two princes are different, this person is very ambitious, and it can be seen from his risk of refining gluttonous essence blood that if he is allowed to become the future Xia Emperor, it will inevitably pose a threat to our Great Zhou Empire. ”
Ye Zhibai nodded, and then said lightly: "That eldest prince can be regarded as a ruthless person, and even his own brother can do it." ”
"Heaven is ruthless!"
Zhou Ke shook his head, and then said with a happy face: "I am also lucky, my father only has me and Xiaoba's two sons, and Xiaoba is still in infancy, so there is no threat to me." ”
"But these two princes of the Great Xia Empire are different, they are not much different in age, and it is normal to fight for the throne. ”
Zhou Ke said, looked at Ye Zhibai and asked, "By the way, I asked you to inquire about the preferences of the Seventh Princess, have you inquired clearly?"
"This seventh princess lives in a shallow way, and it is difficult to find out what she likes in a short period of time. Your Highness, why did you suddenly think of marrying with the Great Xia Empire, and you still chose this Seventh Princess?" Ye Zhibai said curiously.
Zhou Ke smiled mysteriously: "Do you know? I am from the body refining stream, and with my eyesight, I found that the flesh of this seventh princess is actually not weaker than my flesh at all, which really surprised me. ”
"What!" Ye Zhibai's eyes widened, and he said with a shocked expression: "Your Highness, you're not joking, are you?" You specialize in cultivating the physical body, and the physical body is definitely one of the best in the Three Yang Realm, how can she, a martial artist of the Five Yuan Realm, compare to you in the physical body?"
Zhou Ke shook his head and said: "I can't be mistaken, the seventh princess's physical body should have been promoted recently, so her breath is extremely unstable, and I can feel the strength of her physical body from afar." ”
"Hehe, with such a powerful physical body, this seventh princess's future achievements will definitely not be low. Such a woman combined with me, and the child we gave birth to in the future was absolutely gifted. ”
Zhou Ke said with a smile on his face: "Because of this, I temporarily decided to propose to Emperor Xia. ”
Ye Zhibai nodded, and then asked, "Do you think Emperor Xia will agree?" I heard that this seventh princess is very popular with Emperor Xia. ”
Zhou Ke said with a smile: "If it was before, Emperor Xia would definitely not agree, but now it is difficult to say." Now that their Great Xia Empire is being suppressed by the Great Yan Empire, and they urgently need the help of our Great Zhou Empire, he will definitely agree to this family matter. ”
Ye Zhibai looked at Zhou Ke suspiciously, and asked, "Since His Highness knows that our two countries are going to form an alliance, and His Highness still wants to marry the Seventh Princess, then why did he go on a rampage on the street yesterday morning and deliberately act arrogant?"
"Hehe, this is called strategy!" Zhou Keyin sneered: "When I came, my father set a standard for me, and that is this alliance, it is the Great Xia Empire begging our Great Zhou Empire to form an alliance." So, when we make alliances, we need to try to get the benefits. ”
"I deliberately pretended to be arrogant and domineering before, but also to test the bottom line of their Great Xia Empire, as long as we know their bottom line, it will be convenient for us to obtain more benefits in the negotiations. ”
Listening to Zhou Ke's words, Ye Zhibai couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic to the Great Xia Empire, and meeting the third prince of their Great Zhou Empire could be regarded as unlucky for the Great Xia Empire.
You must know that the three princes of their Great Zhou Empire have the title of 'Zhizi' in the Great Zhou Empire.
Otherwise, for such a big matter as forming an alliance, the Great Zhou Emperor would not have assigned it to the three princes.
"Okay, Zhibai, you can stay in the house and practice in retreat if you have nothing to do, there are so many masters in this palace, let's keep a low profile. Zhou Ke then said to Ye Zhibai.
Ye Zhibai nodded, of course he knew how many powerhouses were hidden in this palace, and even as soon as he came out of the house, he could feel a lot of powerful aura staring at him.
He could also understand, after all, this was the imperial palace of the Great Xia Empire, and it was naturally heavily guarded.
......
Fukufu.
Zhao Yiming sat cross-legged on the wooden bed and slowly opened his eyes.
After discovering the three souls in the cemetery in the suburbs last night, he began to focus on the 'divine soul', and one night's enlightenment made him improve a lot.
Now even in the daytime, when the three souls are at their weakest, Zhao Yiming can clearly feel the existence of the 'divine soul'.
"In half a month at most, I will be able to comprehend the 'divine soul'. Zhao Yiming thought secretly, with excitement in his eyes.
Comprehending Sanyang was much smoother than he imagined.
Of course, this is all thanks to the fact that he has a powerful body.
In the end, it was that drop of true dragon blood that helped him a lot.
Zhao Yiming couldn't help but sigh again, that dragon's nest was really his blessed place.
"Boy, I'm back. Suddenly, Grandpa Fu's voice came from outside the door.
Zhao Yiming smiled slightly, walked out of the house, looked at the oncoming Grandpa Fu, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Grandpa Fu, it seems that everything is going well." ”
"It's just some small things, I spent some money, found some big and small gangs in the imperial capital, and people from all walks of life to help deliver the news. In less than half a day, the people in the entire imperial capital will know that the third prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the toad wants to eat swan meat. Grandpa Fu smiled.
Zhao Yiming smiled: "People are also a prince, but they are said to be toads here." ”
"Hehe, isn't this helping you kid, you kid doesn't know how to be good. Grandpa Fu scolded with a smile.
Zhao Yiming smiled, and then asked, "What about Yang Tianao?"
"Hehe, you don't need my help with this, then Yang Tianao has dog legs in the emperor, someone has already written to tell him. Grandpa Fu pouted.
Zhao Yiming smiled slightly, and then asked, "What did I say?"
"I understand that this is the most important thing. Grandpa Fu said with a straight face: "What you said, I specially found some storytellers and asked them to make up some 'heroic deeds' about Emperor Xia overnight." It is estimated that at this time, there are those storytellers in the teahouses and restaurants in the entire imperial capital who are promoting for us. ”
Zhao Yiming couldn't help but praise when he heard this: "Grandpa Fu is really powerful, teahouses and restaurants are places where warriors often go, and finding a storyteller to help promote it is simply twice the result with half the effort." ”
"Hehe, let's just wait for things to ferment. Grandpa Fu smiled.
Zhao Yiming nodded.
......
Dafeng Restaurant.
Today's restaurant has a good birthday, and the store is full of customers.
At this time, an old man with crane hair dressed as a scholar was patting the board and said aloud to the group of warriors in front of him: "Speaking of the Battle of the Snow River fifty years ago, at that time, in the face of the coercion of the contemporary Yan Emperor of the Great Yan Empire, our Majesty the Xia Emperor was full of fighting spirit, and wrote on the spot 'No harmony, no compensation, no land, no tribute, the Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies in the community'......"
......
Tianming Tea House.
A storyteller said loudly: "Thinking about these years, our Xia Emperor has indeed achieved the sentence of 'no harmony, no compensation, no land, no tribute, the Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies', saying that he is the first emperor of the ages, who dares to object?"
The audience nodded their heads.
......
Blue Moon Restaurant.
A storyteller said to the warriors below: "I heard that the three princes of the Great Zhou Empire actually wanted to eat swan meat and wanted to marry the seventh princess of our Great Xia Empire, which is simply wishful thinking. ”
"Our Great Xia Empire has been established for thousands of years, and has always adhered to the ancestral motto of 'no harmony, no compensation, no land, no tribute, the Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies'. ”
As soon as the voice fell!
"Well said!"
"He's a foreigner, and he still wants to eat swan meat like a toad, and he's just daydreaming. ”
"Let that bullshit third prince fuck off. ”
......
Everyone in the audience shouted.
......
Under the bombardment of Grandpa Fu's money ability, the people in the entire imperial capital already knew that the toad, the third prince of the Great Zhou Empire, wanted to eat swan meat.
At the same time, they also knew the famous saying 'no harmony, no reparations, no land cession, no tribute, the Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies'.
......
Fukufu.
Zhao Yiming couldn't help but be dumbfounded when he heard the news from Grandpa Fu.
Those storytellers are really talented.
The phrase "no harmony, no compensation, no land cession, no tribute, the Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies in the community" changed from Emperor Xia's 'war book' to Emperor Xia's 'life motto'.
It's good now, it has directly become the founding ancestor of the Great Xia Empire.
I don't know if the founding ancestor of the Great Xia Empire will be stunned when he hears about this, when did Lao Tzu say this?
Zhao Yiming suddenly felt that this matter was a bit of a big trouble.
In fact, it's really a big fuss.
Now the big people in the entire imperial capital are talking about this matter.
