Volume 5 The Puzzle Chapter 421 The Marquis

Chapter 421: Feudal Marquis

Under the darkness of the night.

In a burst of faint light, the dark jade plate automatically opened the door of the Holy Gen Underground Palace, and a call continued to be issued from the door to Dai Yi!

"What is this?" Dai Yi couldn't help but get out of bed in a daze, and approached the light door step by step.

"Come here......"

"Come here......"

"Come on, come on, you will be the new master of the Holy Gen Underground Palace, come here......"

A murmur kept ringing!

"I ...... The Underground Palace of the Holy Gen ...... The master ......" Dai Yi's eyes couldn't help but gradually drift, and her slender hand stretched out to the light door!

At this moment, Dai Yi's delicate body couldn't help but feel excited!

"No, take it for me!" A wave of mystic power came out of Dai Yixian's hand, and it was directly applied to the light gate!

I saw that the light gate disappeared in an instant! The dark jade plate returned directly to Dai Yi's hand.

"It's weird, it's going to start automatically. Dai Yi frowned slightly and looked at the jade card in her hand.

"Holy Gen Underground Palace, does it mean the ruins of the battlefield of gods and demons? Although this jade plaque can open the spatial door leading there at any time, but now I can't take risks, that place is too mysterious, with my current strength to go there, I really don't know what will happen." I'm afraid it's not necessarily a good thing for me to get this jade plaque for no reason, isn't it?And what's going on with that palace that I've never seen before? It actually gives me a strong sense of belonging!" Dai Yi said.

"Alas...... If it weren't for the fact that Brother Fengyi was too impulsive to go to the Gods and Demons Battlefield Ruins because of the elixir that could make Sister Lingyue better, he could have consulted with him, and now he could only postpone the matter for the time being. I wonder how Sister Lingyue is doing now?" Dai Yi sighed softly.

The next day, in the Xiao family of the Red Cloud Empire.

"Kneel down for me!" Xiao Yiqu said angrily!

But it was Xiao Feng and Zhaoyue Red Lotus who were caught overnight!

"Dad!" Xiao Feng, who was embarrassed, couldn't help but kneel heavily on his knees!

"Uncle Xiao!" the Zhaoyue Red Lotus on the side showed a hint of pleading......

"Princess Red Lotus, the envoy of your country is here, I want to welcome you back, you groom, and the old man will send someone to send you to the State Guest Post in a while. The old man, the Xiao family temple is small, and it is inevitable that he will not be well entertained. Xiao Yiqu's expression eased slightly, and he said to Zhaoyue Red Lotus, who was also embarrassed.

"Dad!" Xiao Feng was taken aback!

"Xiao Bo......" Zhaoyue Red Lotus also opened her eyes slightly!

"Bastard! Shut up, are you trying to kill our Xiao family!"

"Dad, as long as you expel me from the Xiao family, sever my relationship with the Xiao family, and I take the red lotus away to live in seclusion, all problems can be solved!

"You!bastard!Are you trying to anger the old man!" Xiao Yiqu suddenly froze!

"Feng'er, you're so foolish. You are like this, how can you be worthy of the Xiao family's high hopes for you. The Great Elder of the Xiao Family sighed lightly.

"I know, it's me Xiao Feng who is useless! I'm sorry for the Xiao family! It's me who has lived up to everyone's expectations!" Xiao Feng choked up.

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but sigh slightly.

"The wind, it's me who is bad...... I'm tired of you......" Zhaoyue Red Lotus's tears slipped down......

"But, Princess Lingyue didn't have any intention of me. Now, Honglian is my woman! It is my confidante Xiao Feng! If I can't even keep my own woman, what is the use of me Xiao Feng! I don't know how I will face myself in the future! Can I really afford the heavy responsibility of the Xiao family?" Xiao Feng then said in a deep voice!

Suddenly, everyone couldn't help but be stunned.

"You! are really young and ignorant! How can the love of children be more serious!" Xiao Yiqu said in a deep voice!

At this time.

"Wind, let me go back, some things really can't be forced. Zhaoyue Red Lotus suddenly spoke softly.

"What, Red Lotus, what are you talking about?" Xiao Feng couldn't help but feel a sharp pain in his heart!

"Alas!" Xiao Yiqu shook his head helplessly.

"Husband...... Thank you, with your words, Honglian is satisfied, I ...... No regrets in this life......" I saw Zhaoyue Red Lotus blink tears and gently salute Xiao Feng.

"Princess Red Lotus, ......" Xiao Yiqu looked at Zhaoyue Red Lotus with a surprised expression.

Hearing this, the people present couldn't help but feel a slight shock in their hearts, and looked at Zhaoyue Red Lotus in surprise. Then they looked at each other, and they all sighed lightly in their hearts.

"No!Red Lotus!No!" Xiao Feng's eyes suddenly turned crimson!

"I'm sorry that Red Lotus has caused you trouble. In the future, please ...... Take care of your husband, thank you......" bowed to everyone again, Zhaoyue Honglian resolutely turned around, tears slipped down gently, and she was already walking towards the outside of the hall......

"No!" Xiao Feng suddenly stood up, and was about to grab Zhaoyue Red Lotus, but he only felt that his shoulders sank!

"Dad!" Xiao Feng looked at Xiao Yiqu who was holding him down with a surprised expression!

"Feng'er, calm down, ......" Xiao Yiqu's eyes flashed a trace of unbearability, but he still asked and suppressed Xiao Feng.

"Yiqu ......" The elder of the Xiao family couldn't help but speak to Xiao Yiqu, but in the end, he didn't say anything.

"Daddy let go of me!please!" Xiao Feng pleaded with tears falling from his eyes!

"Feng'er, everything is focused on the overall situation!" Xiao Yiqu sighed.

Right now!

"The Divine Decree has arrived!"

Everyone in the Xiao family was stunned!

I saw the herald, under the protection of a group of guards, strode out of the hall!

Seeing the sudden arrival of the herald, Zhaoyue Honglian, who had already walked out of the hall, was stunned and couldn't help but stop and watch.

The herald officer glanced at Zhaoyue Honglian lightly.

And the Xiao family and the others have already walked out quickly!

"The Xiao family came to receive the decree!" Xiao Yiqu pulled Xiao Feng and led everyone to kneel on the ground to wait for the decree.

"Fengtian carries the emperor's edict and says, Xiao Feng, the son of the head of the Xiao family, is young and promising, and he is specially named the Marquis of Yunqi! Another sent Xiao Yiqu, the head of the Xiao family, as an envoy, to the Zhaoyue Empire to marry the Marquis of Yunqi and marry Princess Zhaoyue Red Lotus, be sure to promote! During this time, Princess Zhaoyue Red Lotus is a guest at the Xiao family, and I hope that the Xiao family should not be slack!

At this time, everyone present looked surprised!

"Dad, I'm ......" Xiao Feng couldn't help but show a look of surprise!

Zhaoyue Honglian on the side looked stunned......

"Your Majesty, what do you mean?" Xiao Yiqu couldn't help but murmur.

"Hmm, aren't you still taking orders?" the herald frowned.

"Yes! Yes, I'll wait for the order! Thank you, Lord Longen!" Xiao Yiqu suddenly came back to his senses and hurriedly took the holy decree.

"Patriarch Xiao, the envoy of the Zhaoyue Empire will come to visit Princess Zhaoyue Red Lotus in a while, you must not be lazy. You can't force Princess Zhaoyue Red Lotus to do anything. The herald spoke.

"At this level, the Xiao family doesn't dare!" Xiao Yiqu thought in his heart!

Moments later, the herald was gone.

"Dad, what is the matter between me and Red Lotus?" Xiao Feng showed joy.

And the Zhaoyue Red Lotus on the side also looked at Xiao Yiqu expectantly.

"You...... Settle for yourselves. The corners of Xiao Yiqu's mouth twitched slightly.

"Thank you, Dad. Xiao Feng said happily.

"You take Princess Red Lotus to rest first, you have something important to deal with for your father!" Xiao Yiqu sighed lightly.

"Yes!Dad!" Xiao Feng nodded hurriedly.

Soon after, the Xiao family was in the secret room.

"Hmm...... What does Your Majesty mean by this?" the Great Elder of the Xiao Family frowned deeply.

"This is a favor to our Xiao family, especially Feng'er. Xiao Yiqu said lightly.

"Yes, directly giving Feng'er the title of marquis is to give him the same status as Princess Red Lotus. The meaning expressed to the outside world is to support our Xiao family. The Great Elder of the Xiao Family sighed.

"This matter has a great impact on Feng'er. Your Majesty's move is really delicate. Xiao Yiqu took a deep breath.

"Okay, let's settle the marriage with the Zhaoyue Empire now. Xiao Yiqu sighed lightly.

"It is rumored that Princess Red Lotus has a marriage contract with the Western Empire. The Great Elder of the Xiao Family frowned.

"Yes, before that, His Majesty summoned me to the palace and explained it to me. Xiao Yiqu said.

"In this way, Your Majesty's move is quite risky! I am afraid that this matter will not be easy to solve. The elder of the Xiao family frowned.

"The marriage between the Zhaoyue Empire and the Ximu Empire is nothing more than a weak alliance to seek coexistence. The Zhaoyue Empire is in contact with our Chiyun Empire and the Nanxuan Empire, and their strength is weak. Marriage with the Ximen Empire can contain the Nanxuan Empire next to it, and the pressure will naturally become smaller. And the pressure of the Western Empire is only the Nanxuan Empire. Xiao Yiqu said lightly.

"Hmm...... The Western Curtain Empire is far away from our Red Cloud Empire, and it is blocked by the Nanxuan Empire. As long as our conditions on the side of the Zhaoyue Empire are negotiated, there should be no big problem. The second elder of the Xiao family spoke.

"The question now is how to talk to the Zhaoyue Empire. However, if Your Majesty really has the heart to help our Xiao family, this matter should not be difficult. As long as we negotiate with the Zhaoyue Empire, our two empires will send a generous gift to the Western Empire, and presumably the Western Empire will also understand. Xiao Yiqu said.

At this time, in the palace.

"Your Majesty, how much risk you have taken in this move. This Princess Zhaoyue Red Lotus and the crown prince of the Western Empire already have a marriage contract, and if it is not handled well, the current situation of our Red Cloud Empire is not good. Nie Sheyun said.

"Although this matter seems to be risky, there is always something to deal with. It's one thing to talk about it, it's one thing to be successful, and it's another thing to not be successful. At least I have given them the Xiao family and Xiao Feng a chance to fight. Nalan said lightly.

"Hmm...... The old man understands, after all, it is Your Majesty who is scheming. With a seemingly risky move, he gave the Xiao family great kindness. This account is really good at calculating. Nie Sheyun shook his head.

"Oh, elopement, young man, it's really passionate. Xiao Feng, this son has always been under my nose, and he is a person who values love and righteousness. It's worth making me bet on him. Nalan Wumi said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, you are really cunning. This Xiao Feng is very likely to be the next patriarch of the Xiao family. Moreover, at this juncture, he gave the Xiao family such a generous favor. As long as not everyone in the Xiao family is ungrateful, the impact can be not small. Nie Sheyun said.

"It's also a helpless situation, at this stormy moment. If you don't stabilize the internal cohesion, how to respond at that time. Nalan Wumi sighed lightly.

Hearing this, Nie Sheyun couldn't help but be silent.

"Now there is news from Cliff Town, there is a threat from the Venerable Rank, and the Great Elder of the Long Family and the Great Elder of the Bai Family dare not act rashly. And those demons repeatedly opened the spatial cracks and caused trouble. Judging by their actions, I am afraid that they want to separate the Great Elder of the Long Family from the Great Elder of the Bai Family, and then easily kill them one by one! Nalan Wumi said with a headache.

"Hmm...... If you really can't do this, let the old man go. After all, the Honorable Rank is not something that the Emperor Rank can handle. Nie Sheyun spoke.

"Let Nie Lao leave the imperial capital, this move is risky. I wanted to give up on Cliff Town for the time being, and wait for the Tianwu Academy and other forces to send someone to deal with it. "Nalan has no way to go.

"Your Majesty, in this way, it is inevitable that the people of the empire will have some complaints about you. Moreover, it is even more obvious to the outside that Chiyun, the guardian spirit of our Chiyun Empire, has gone wrong, so that he does not dare to let the old man leave the imperial capital to deal with the matter of Falling Cliff Town!" Nie Sheyun said in a deep voice.

"I know it, but I'm really helpless now!" Nalan Wumi let out a lament.

"Your Majesty, the old man will go back quickly. Nie Sheyun said.

"Well, that's all there is to it. Nalan Wumi nodded.
