Chapter 257: The Trading Site of the Fruit of the Divine Tree

Although Ye Lingxi returned the key to Murong Cheng'an, she resolutely objected to really using five million taels of gold to buy the fruit of the Divine Tree of Shocking Strength.

"The fruit of this Amazing Divine Tree was originally the stuff of our Zombie Clan, and it should be returned to its original owner after being taken away for so long! But now you want me to take out almost all of my belongings and buy them back?! I don't accept it! ”

Ye Lingxi blew his beard and glared at Murong Cheng'an's original plan to protest.

"But lady...... I've already released the words that I want to buy the fruit of the Divine Tree of Shocking Power...... This is ...... How is it a good ......"

In the face of Ye Lingxi's anger, Murong Chengan trembled and handed a cup of warm water to Ye Lingxi, waiting for it to fall like a flattering person.

"What's that?! If we don't pay for it, we will rob it alive! Anyway, the fruit of the Amazing Divine Tree in his hand was also snatched by him, and he was not a noble gentleman, everyone relied on their own abilities! ”

Ye Lingxi is very open-minded, and she doesn't need to pay attention to any gentleman's morality with this kind of person when dealing with the villain who snatches people's treasures!

"Good! I listen to the lady! ”

Murong Chengan obediently stood behind Ye Lingxi and pinched her shoulders with his hands.

"The lady doesn't have to worry about this anymore, just take care of her body with peace of mind. Leave this robbery of the fruit of the Divine Tree of Shocking Power to me! ”

"Good! Bang An'an! ”

Ye Lingxi turned around and patted Murong Cheng'an on the shoulder, which made Murong Cheng'an, who had been appreciated by the lady, very happy, like an obedient little kitten, squinting a pair of smiling eyes.

After Murong Cheng'an and Ye Lingxi converged, Ye Lingxi quickly held the "Ceremony of the Queen", gave Murong Cheng'an a name, and made the matter public, and officially announced to the world that the empress was happy.

For a time, the whole country celebrated, and the streets were full of lights, as festive as the New Year.

In fact, for ordinary people, it doesn't matter whether the emperor is a man or a woman, as long as everyone can live a good life in peace and contentment, he is a good emperor.

Ye Lingxi has always adhered to the new concept of "people-oriented" in governing the country, which broke the traditional official-oriented thinking, and really brought tangible benefits to every people, so the people of Shengning Kingdom supported Ye Lingxi very much.

Although there were also some protest voices questioning Murong Cheng'an's qualifications to become the head of the harem, Ye Lingxi once again announced an outrageous decree.

The holy decree clearly stated that there was only one person in the harem of Shengning Kingdom, and the empress would not accept other men.

As soon as the holy decree came out, naturally some diehards raised the inappropriateness, but Ye Lingxi strongly rejected all objections, which greatly satisfied Murong Chengan's sense of security.

On the day of the "Founding Ceremony", Murong Cheng'an was dressed in a bright red court dress, and he changed his appearance into an ordinary person, and he restrained the edge on his body, and was willing to be the person behind Ye Lingxi.

After the "Ceremony of the Queen", Xiaolian and Zhao Ping also entered the palace, nominally as the personal guards and maidservants of the "queen".

It's just that everyone in the palace knows that the maid of the "queen" has never served the "queen" in an an, but often goes to the queen's bedroom, and stays all day.

Only these few people who know the relationship between Ye Lingxi and Xiaolian understand that Ye Lingxi and Xiaolian were inseparable in the past, and now they haven't seen each other for a long time, so they must have a lot to say.

In fact, Xiaolian is the first girl to get along with Ye Lingxi after crossing over, and she has long regarded Xiaolian as her good friend.

In the past, Ye Lingxi didn't want to confine herself to the deep palace, so she could only bury her friendship with Xiaolian.

Unexpectedly, now she has become a person in the palace, but fortunately, Xiaolian is still there, and it is not too late, she can still have this friendship.

This is very precious to Ye Lingxi.

At this meeting, Ye Lingxi was pregnant, and Xiaolian naturally shouldered the heavy responsibility of taking care of Ye Lingxi, and there were some things that Murong Chengan couldn't do, all of which Xiaolian was helping.

"Little Lotus...... You're just so nice...... Thank you ......."

Ye Lingxi gave Xiaolian a hug and was full of emotion.

"The emperor is serious, this is what Xiaolian should do, as long as the emperor and the master can be together, Xiaolian will be satisfied."

Xiaolian is not suitable for calling Murong Chengan "Queen Mother", which is too strange......

Ye Lingxi has never cared about these titles, if it weren't for Xiaolian's resolute inability to call out, she really wanted Xiaolian to call her name directly.

"By the way, Xiaolian, you and Zhao Ping...... Where are we now? ”

Ye Lingxi looked at Xiaolian with a gossip face and a wicked smile.

"Ah, Your Majesty, how can Xiaolian develop with him!"

Xiaolian stomped her foot and lowered her head, so that Ye Lingxi couldn't see her expression.

"Eh, you're still shy?! In the past, when we were still in King An's Mansion, the two of you frowned, don't think I don't know! ”

Ye Lingxi didn't notice that something was wrong with Xiaolian at first, and kept teasing.

However, Xiaolian was silent, kept her head down, and did not make any movements.

"Huh? What's wrong? Xiaolian? You and Zhao Ping...... Don't...... Broke up? ”

Finally, Ye Lingxi noticed that Xiaolian's mood was suddenly low, and took Xiaolian's hand with concern and asked her to sit next to her.

Xiaolian took a few deep breaths before finally mustering up the courage to raise her head.

"Your Majesty, Xiaolian remembers that when you were in King An's Mansion in the past, you said that if you like someone, you have to tell him that you have to take the initiative to have the following story. However, Zhao Ping ...... Xiaolian thinks that he may not like me. ”

"How so?! In the past, when he was in King An's Mansion, he often looked at you secretly behind your back, that gaze, that look, definitely not the appearance of ordinary companions! I've seen it many times, and you can't be wrong! ”

"However, I don't remember when I started talking to him, and when I took the initiative to talk to him, he always deliberately avoided me, as if he didn't want to be close to me."

Looking at Xiaolian's melancholy and sad appearance of a lovelorn girl, the helping factor in Ye Lingxi's chest began to burn.

"Don't worry, Xiaolian, I have a way to help you chase Zhao Ping! Come on~"

Ye Lingxi hooked his finger at Xiaolian, and smiled mysteriously and meaningfully.

Xiaolian approached Ye Lingxi suspiciously, and listened to Ye Lingxi teach a set of methods and strategies for women chasing men.

Although Ye Lingxi's ideas are bold and straightforward, they also hit the weakness of human nature, and the interlocking flirtatious strategies simply amazed Xiaolian.

"Huh? …… Emperor...... This, this, will this work? ”

Xiaolian still felt a little unbelievable in Ye Lingxi's methods, and besides, some of Ye Lingxi's ideas were too shocking to be accepted by ancients like Xiaolian.

"Of course! You believe me, you're right! Hey! ”

Ye Lingxi was full of confidence, and in his heart he had even begun to look forward to Xiaolian using these tricks to tease Zhao Ping's wonderful scenes.

Xiaolian finally nodded with difficulty, she thought to herself, anyway, there won't be a worse result than now, so it's better to give it a try.

I have to say that under the influence of Ye Lingxi's modern concepts, Xiaolian has gradually realized the advanced ideas of female personality and spiritual independence, bold pursuit of love and expression of emotions, which has also laid a good foundation for her lifelong happiness.

And when Ye Lingxi and Xiaolian were discussing love and love in the emperor's bedroom, Murong Cheng'an was discussing with Zhao Ping the details of the transaction of the fruit of the Astounding Divine Tree.

Because, in a few days, it will be the time for the seller to propose to trade the fruit of the Astounding Divine Tree.

……

A few days later.

According to the seller's request, the buyer's main person went to the appointment in person, so Murong Chengan personally took Zhao Ping and Xiaolian to the agreed place of the transaction, which was a cliff.

When Murong Cheng'an arrived, many people from all factions in the rivers and lakes had gathered on the cliff, and the scene was very lively.

Because the seller has not yet appeared, Murong Chengan and the three of them have also remained unmoved. After scanning the scene, they found the red dress, exchanged glances briefly, and then waited for the arrival of the seller in place.

The appointed time was less than three quarters, and it was noon, and there was still some time.

Murong Cheng'an secretly observed the crowd around him in the same place, and he always felt that among these people, there must be one or even more people who were related to the seller of the Fruit of the Divine Tree of Shocking Strength, or perhaps, the real seller, who was hidden in the crowd at this time.

The trading place on the cliff was an open space with no hiding place within a radius of one mile, so everyone in the open space was exposed to Murong Cheng'an's eyes, and nothing was missing.

Murong Cheng'an's eagle-like eyes swept over the people present one by one like detectors.

Due east, there are people from the Xuanling Society.

As a sect that takes swordsmanship as its housekeeping skill, the people of the Xuanling Society are all armed with a well-made sword, and because the Xuanling Society belongs to the martial arts school, the disciples of the Xuanling Society are well-dressed and uniform, which is very easy to distinguish.

Due west, it should be a member of the beggar gang.

The beggars are also a very recognizable group, and they can be easily identified from their tattered clothes.

This kind of sect with a relatively tight organization should not be easy to mix in with outsiders, and the suspicion is relatively small.

The south-east direction was more chaotic, and there were a few people from small sects gathered around, and you and I chatted casually, and the red clothes hid in this team.

"Master, here, there are a few people from the Thousand Poison Sect, and my subordinates once saw them when they were exploring the lair of the Thousand Poison Sect."

Zhao Ping had been following Murong Cheng'an's line of sight, and had keenly noticed that the people of the Thousand Poison Sect were mixed in.

"Be careful, these people will be poisonous, too insidious and cunning, Xi'er is not here, we can't be poisoned."

Murong Chengan reminded Zhao Ping and Xiaolian in a low voice, and his tone was so caring that Zhao Ping couldn't help but tremble in his heart.

must have been influenced by the empress, and the master is really getting closer and closer to their subordinates now.

"Xiaolian, according to what you see, among these people, are there any people who have changed their faces?"

Murong Chengan didn't see anything wrong with the people present, if they didn't disguise or disguise, then it could be explained that the seller's owner should not be among these people.

"Back to the master, according to the observation of his subordinates, there should be no disguised people. However, this disguise technique is ever-changing, and there are various ways, whether there is a disguise method that his subordinates have never understood, and his subordinates dare not make a judgment. ”

Xiaolian cautiously said that she couldn't be sure, Murong Chengan didn't embarrass her, just nodded slightly.

Since you can't see any problems, let's wait quietly for the seller to appear.

However, the people on the cliff waited left and right, but they didn't see the seller, and until the agreed moment, the seller was still missing.

Some anxious people have begun to scold and be impatient, and most of them have faintly shown a little impatience, only Murong Chengan has been as steady as Mount Tai, and he is not in a hurry at all.
