Chapter 689: The Battle of the Covenant
And at this moment, the door of the Blue and White Realm suddenly opened, and Cheng Cheng, with the support of the woman, came out with several maidservants, and said softly, "Daoxian, if the Holy Maiden of the Xiongnu Kingdom really likes the Blue and White Realm, then let her go, you don't need to embarrass them." ”
Wu Yasi's gaze instantly fell on Chengcheng, and his clear eyes were as sharp as an arrow.
At this moment, Chengcheng's face was slightly pale, her body was thin but she looked more and more exquisite, and the light cyan dress was indifferent and elegant, which more and more set off her indifferent and calm temperament. Although he opened his mouth to let go of the blue and white realm, he did not have the slightest intention of being unwilling to be humiliated, but more like being tolerant and generous, and did not want to see the saint of the Hun country.
Wu Yasi was furious, and said in a cold voice, "Since you have agreed to my covenant, without my consent, you will not be allowed to withdraw, otherwise my Hun State mission will never give up!"
Chengcheng frowned slightly, she didn't want to add more trouble to Xiao Chen, but at this moment, without waiting for her to say more, Dao Xian had already spoken respectfully, "Please don't stop Madame, Guogong ordered me to protect Madame before leaving, I can't live up to Guogong's trust." ”
"Hmph! Let's go!"
Wu Ya turned around and led the Hun monks away.
Chengcheng bowed his head, and sighed softly after half a ring, "In this case, I will go to the gong platform with you, don't refuse, this is the only thing I can do for you." ”
Daoxian hesitated slightly, but still respectfully responded, "Please stay for the time being, Madame, and wait for me to prepare all the things, and then come to pick you up and go to the causeway platform." He bowed and led the monks of the Rongguo mission to leave in a hurry.
Returning to the Hundred Gardens, the atmosphere of the Rongguo mission was solemn.
"Lord Daoxian, the Xiongnu envoy is strong, you should never take on this challenge, what should you do now?" the deputy envoy frowned, his eyes full of worry.
The other monks of the mission also nodded their heads when they heard this, apparently thinking that this was inappropriate. But Xiao Chen ordered Dao Xian to take charge of the affairs of the mission, and no matter how much they opposed it in their hearts, they did not dare to go against Xiao Chen's will.
"The Holy Maiden of the Xiongnu Kingdom made an appointment to fight, if the envoys of our Rong Kingdom avoided it, it would definitely become a laughing stock of the envoys of various countries, and let the lady and the prince of the country be humiliated, if you don't agree, what should you do according to your intentions?" Dao Xian spoke in a deep voice, his eyes slowly swept around him, and he looked at him and bowed his head slightly, not daring to say more, "Please rest assured, although the Xiongnu delegation is strong, we may not have no chance of winning." The official immediately dispatched monks to summon the strongest of the White Tiger Army to deal with the challenge of the Xiongnu mission. ”
Speaking of this, he paused slightly before continuing to speak, "Before, I secretly ordered my subordinates to leave the pilgrimage palace and go to the Ministry of Rites to inform the Duke of Guo that as long as the Duke of Guo comes back, in today's battle, our mission will win!"
At the mention of Guogong, Daoxian's face showed an inexplicable brilliance.
With the presence of the Duke of the Kingdom, no matter how strong the Xiongnu mission is, it will definitely lose!
The worry on the faces of the deputy envoy and other monks of the Rong State Mission suddenly dissipated a lot, and when they thought of Qingyun Gong, they felt a little more confident in their hearts.
With the White Tiger Army strong and the Guogong in charge, what do they have to be afraid of.
For a while, the decadent momentum was swept away, and there was a sense of eagerness to try in everyone's hearts.
Seeing that the morale of the people had been stirred, Daoxian said no more, and immediately ordered an official of the mission to summon the strong man of the White Tiger Army, and he led the people of the mission to go to Hao Hao Tangtang, picked up his wife, followed the chariot of Liulongluan, and headed towards the causeway platform under the leadership of the monks of the pilgrimage palace.
And at this moment, I don't know who spread the news, the news of the battle between the Xiongnu State Mission and the Rong State Mission Tongluotai has spread in the pilgrimage palace, and it is spreading to the Jidu at a very fast speed.
For a while, countless monks in the thistle capital moved one after another, rushing towards the direction of the causeway.

Ministry of Rites.
"Oh, there's such a thing. Lang Zhanghuan, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, put down the teacup in his hand, showed a thoughtful look on his face, and slowly spoke, "That Rongguo Qingyun Gongshang didn't leave in the Ministry of Rites, right?"
"No, the gift list is still being checked, so you have to be careful to avoid mistakes. Next, the confidant monk didn't know what his lord meant, and spoke cautiously.
"Your Majesty ordered the Ministry of Rites to count the tributary gifts of the vassal countries, you should all be careful, and there must be no accidents, otherwise Your Majesty will blame you, and no one will have good fruit to eat. Zhang Huan said lightly, "I just looked at the tribute list of the Rong Kingdom, and there are indeed a few treasures in it, and we should check it carefully." ”
"What the lord said is very true, his subordinates immediately ordered them to go down and let them check the tribute of the Rong State, although it will take a little more time, but in order not to go wrong, it can only be like this. The confidant smiled and saluted, and turned to go out.
Seeing that his subordinates understood what he meant, Zhang Huan nodded with satisfaction, reached out to pick up the teacup, and took a sip slowly. The Zhang family is now on the cusp of the limelight, and he needs to be more and more careful in his actions, but with a little manipulation, no one can find fault at all.
Although he didn't know the grievances between Xiao Chen and the Zhang family at the moment, he didn't have a good impression of the Rong Kingdom and his party, so he was naturally willing to look at the gray faces they touched and lost face.
Zhang Huan groaned slightly, and said in a low voice, "Someone." ”
Outside the hall, a ceremonial department walked in quickly, and said respectfully, "I don't know what the adults command?"
"During the inventory and verification of the tributary gifts of various countries, in order to prevent accidents, no inconsequential person is allowed to step into the verification compound without the permission of the official. ”
"Yes!"
Watching the monk of the Ministry of Rites leave quickly, the corners of Zhang Huan's mouth showed a look of satisfaction. Since you have made a move, you naturally have to do it perfectly, so it should be about the same.
...
Xiao Chen's brows furrowed slightly, it has been not a short time since he entered the Ministry of Rites, but the tribute ceremony has still not been verified, and he faintly felt that something was wrong in his heart, but he couldn't find the source, so he stretched out his hand to summon a monk of the Ministry of Rites, and said: "My Rong National Gift List and the Tribute Gift have been offered, why haven't the verification and registration been completed until now?"
"Wait a minute, the lower official will immediately urge you. The monk spoke respectfully, and turned and walked briskly towards the row of low bungalows.
After a while, this person returned, saluted Xiao Chen, and said: "Returning to the envoy, the lower official has already inquired for you, because there are several treasures in the tribute gift of the Rong State are extremely precious, and the monks of our Ministry of Rites need to carefully identify before they can register and make a book, so as not to make mistakes, and please wait a while for the envoy, it will be completed soon." ”
Xiao Chen nodded, and waved his hand to order the ritual monk to retreat. But for some reason, after knowing the reason, the inappropriate intention in his heart did not disappear, but became more and more serious, and it seemed that something extremely bad had happened.
I waited for a while, and the uneasiness in my heart became heavier and heavier. The pale golden primordial god has always had a good instinct for danger. Now that he is safe, could it be that there was an accident at the mission?
As soon as he thought of this, Xiao Chen suddenly stood up and strode out.
He didn't want to wait any longer, since the Ministry of Rites wanted to review the tribute, they would go, and when it was done, it would not be too late for him to come and collect the verification list.
"Envoy, the check will be completed immediately, and according to the regulations, you are not allowed to leave the Ministry of Rites compound until then. A monk of the Ministry of Rites suddenly stopped in front of Xiao Chen, and although his tone was respectful, there was a faint hint of toughness.
Xiao Chen's eyes narrowed slightly, and he slowly spoke, "My father has been waiting here for nearly two hours, and now I have to take another step in advance, and I will come to inform after the Ministry of Rites has checked my tribute to the Rong Kingdom, and let me get back the verification gift list." "Yuluo is about to move forward again.
"Guogong stays, please don't embarrass the lower officials. The monk stepped back, but still didn't get out of the way.
