Chapter 110: The Messenger

It's November, and the weather is getting colder. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe rain city is still as rainy as ever, and the water droplets fall from the sky, fall to the trees, fall into the river, hit the ground, and knock on people's hearts. Soon, they will return to heaven again, and so on and so forth. The people in the city have become lazy, many of them even hide at home and do not want to go out, and the morning market in the market is no longer so lively, except for some people who are forced to survive, and still set up their stalls on time every day to sell fresh fruits and vegetables that have just been picked from the field.

In stark contrast, there are those figures with serious expressions who come and go in a hurry. In the past few days, the security in various parts of the city has become stricter than before, and there are also construction teams in full swing to repair the damaged city walls. When people in the streets and alleys get together for a drink, they discuss whether something important is about to happen. According to some people familiar with the matter, it seems that some conference will be held in Yucheng.

After Qiushui returned to Yongwutang that day, Lin Lin and Yan Boshu immediately surrounded him and asked about Zhu Jue's situation. According to Lord Rain, although the refining process this time was arduous, it should be said to be a success. However, due to the fact that it takes a certain amount of time for the body to take shape naturally from scratch, coupled with other factors, it is still a mystery when Zhu Jue will "break out of the shell". She told Qiushui not to be too anxious, to go back to recuperate first, and once there was news, she would send someone to inform him. For Emperor Yu, Qiushui can be said to be full of gratitude in his heart, so he didn't want to ask for anything more, so he came back obediently.

However, staying in the room all day will also get moldy, Qiushui still went to Chen Min and asked for him to arrange some work to pass the time. Seeing that his health seemed to be almost better, Chen Min sent him a light job and asked him to patrol the city wall three times a day. In the process of carrying out the mission, Qiushui was a little surprised to find that only more than half a month had passed since the canonization conference, and several newcomers had already integrated into the big family of the escort team.

With his agility and adaptability to the environment, he is responsible for checking the area around Rain City every day for suspicious characters. Shao Yi is responsible for managing the security in the city, and because of the Shao family's own power, no one dares to do anything wrong under his nose. The Taoist thick eyebrows, who called himself the Tiger Roaring Daoist, became the head of the transport team because of his outstanding strength, going back and forth between various mineral fields every day, and chattering to others in his spare time. Lin Lin, like Qiushui, was also in charge of patrolling the city wall, but as the only few girls in the escort team, she quickly got along with the others, and it was even said that someone had confessed to her in public, and the result was of course a tragedy. The Snow Maiden was still as alone as ever, and for some reason, she took the initiative to apply to stay in the palace and be responsible for the protection around the Rain Master Tower. Seeing that they skillfully complete their daily work and play an increasingly important role in their posts, Qiushui feels a little ashamed as the winner of the Victor's Medal.

After experiencing the painless light rain a few days ago, God seemed to suddenly get angry and wanted to make up for the amount that had been leaked before. In this way, the torrential rain poured down, and even the locals, who were accustomed to rain, shouted that the sky was leaking. However, as always, through the precise detection in the Yushi Tower, the Imperial Palace has issued relevant alerts to the people in advance, which has avoided large-scale property losses. Qiushui has always been curious about what is inside the Yushi Tower, but when he mentioned it to Chen Min several times, he passed by vaguely. In fact, it wasn't that he deliberately concealed it, but this belonged to the top secret of the Rain Country, and even he hadn't really entered it, and in the entire Rain Country, there were no more than one person who was qualified to enter there. In the entire escort team, the only one who knows the real secret may be Haodong. Based on this situation, Qiushui didn't ask again.

Under the pouring rain, the once lively streets seemed deserted, except for the occasional escort passing by, even the ordinary guards mostly hid somewhere to avoid the rain. However, at this time, three strangers appeared at the gate of the city. They were dressed in red robes embroidered with fire emblems, and they wore hats on their heads, so they could not see their faces clearly. At this moment, it was Qiushui's shift, and when he saw such a suspicious person, of course he immediately went down and braved the heavy rain to interrogate.

"Where did it come from?" Qiushui said loudly as he stopped the three of them from entering the city. It's just that the sound of rain is a little bit, and the words that come out of the mouth are suddenly drowned out by the sound of water droplets, and I don't know if the people in front of me heard it.

"We were sent by Emperor Yan, and I hope the young man will report it. The person who took the lead bowed to Qiushui and said politely. As soon as he heard that Emperor Yan had sent them, Qiushui immediately took them to a shelter from the rain, and then sent someone to the palace to report it. After a while, several people from the palace took them away.

"Emperor Yan......" watched their backs gradually blur in the rain, and Qiushui muttered. He had a hunch that something bad might be happening.

In the Rain God Temple, Emperor Yu and Prime Minister Li Cheng were already discussing some matters separately here. And Haodong and Chen Min, who got the news, also rushed over quickly. In the entire Rain Country, although there are a lot of ministers, only these three people, the Rain Emperor trusts the most.

"You say, what is the purpose of the Yan Kingdom sending people here this time?" Seeing that everyone was together, Emperor Yu went straight to the topic and asked the people below.

Haodong and Chen Min glanced at each other, then took a step forward and replied: "The Imperial Conference is about to be held, and the Yan Kingdom coincides with civil strife, so send people here at this time, or hope that we will send troops to help it. ”

Emperor Yu nodded, turned to Prime Minister Li again, and asked, "What do you think?"

Prime Minister Li stroked his gray beard and said, "The old minister is not sure, but he is worried, I'm afraid it's not a good thing." Emperor Yu smiled and said, "I feel the same way......

At this time, the guards who came in from outside reported that the envoy of the Yan Kingdom had arrived outside the palace. With a wave of his hand, the Rain Emperor asked him to bring the messenger up. Then, the three men entered the temple under the guidance of the guards. At this moment, they took off their hats, and saw that the hair on their heads was fiery red, even the eyebrows, which was caused by the unique climate of the Yan Country. Seeing the Rain Emperor sitting above, they used the highest salute of the Yan Kingdom, put one hand on their chests, and bent down slightly to express their respect.

"All the envoys have come all the way to my rainy city, and they have worked hard and tired. I just don't know why I'm here this time?" Emperor Yu asked at them.

The leader of the envoy took out a letter from his cuff, took a few steps forward, lowered his head, and handed it to the Rain Emperor with both hands. The envelope was dark red, made of cinnabar paper, a specialty of the Yan Kingdom, and was not afraid of water and fire. It is printed with a stamp representing the flame, and it seems that it is indeed from the hand of the Yan Emperor. The Rain Emperor opened the envelope and took out the paper inside. I saw her silently chanting, and her face gradually sank.
