The sun was gradually setting, the sky was a fiery red, the thin clouds seemed to be burning, blooming from the bright red, the breeze blew from the plains, swept the whole city, the trees on both sides of the street, moved with the wind, thousands of leaves were gently blown, like the ringing of wind chimes played a beautiful music.

All the signs next to the street shops are lit up, and the lights of various colors attract people to stop, watch, and the sound of laughter comes from all around, and the night is the most real beginning of Mingdu.

The air is filled with the aroma of food, and there seems to be music wafting from nowhere, so you can calm down and enjoy the leisurely time.

Under the Mingyue Hotel, two carriages with an average appearance and extremely luxurious interiors have already been prepared, waiting for Shrek and everyone to sit on it, and soon, the carriage began to move, and under the skillful skills of the groom, the carriage drove smoothly on the neat avenue, heading towards the location of the Sun and Moon Palace.

Through the car window, Ma Xiaotao and Su Tong, the two people who saw the night scene of Mingdu for the first time, were extremely curious at the moment, constantly looking at everything outside.

In addition to the hot and unexpected of the store, it is the crowd of people coming and going, people, after all, they are social animals.

Qin Ze leaned his head on Emperor Yueli's fragrant shoulder, with an inexplicable smile on the corner of his mouth, Mingdu was fine during the day, but at night, it was very similar to the city of Blue Star where he was in his previous life.

Closing his eyes, Qin Ze enjoyed the evening breeze, listening to the exclamations of Ma Xiaotao and Su Tong from time to time, as well as the whispered exchanges between Bei Bei and Tang Ya, everything seemed extraordinarily comfortable.

Di Yueli turned her head and glanced at Qin Ze, the corners of her mouth pursed with a smile, stretched out her white and tender little hand, and put it on the back of Qin Ze's right hand, the warm touch made people linger.

The palace was not particularly far from the Ming Yue Hotel, and eventually, the noise of the crowd in the ears dissipated, the sound of horses' hooves changed from high-pitched to calm, and the two carriages came to the gate of the palace guarded by hundreds of Praetorian Guards.

Perhaps having received the order in advance, the carriage was directly allowed to go after a short inquiry, heading towards the interior of the Sun Moon Palace.

Perhaps it was because the Sun Moon Palace was attacked in the first place, but now the palace has installed a lot of detectors, and once anyone who enters and trespasses without permission is detected by the probe, the entire palace and the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Mentor Group guarding the Ming Capital can be alerted.

The Sun and Moon Palace was large and went around and around, and eventually, the carriage stopped in front of an open space of white slate.

"Aze, it's time to wake up." Seeing that the destination had arrived, Di Yueli pinched the back of Qin Ze's hand with her left hand.

Qin Ze, who had his eyes closed, quickly opened his eyes, he looked outside through the window, and finally inside the carriage, a group of people left the carriage en masse and walked outside.

"Straight to the main hall of the palace?" After Qin Ze got out of the car, he directly noticed a huge palace in front of him, called the Sun and Moon Palace, which was the most important palace in the Sun and Moon Palace.

"It was the Emperor of the Sun and Moon who specially allowed us to take a carriage here." Song Lao explained to Qin Ze.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please come with me." This is, the commander of the Praetorian Guard who was guarding outside the Sun Moon Hall walked in front of Song Lao, and he said extremely respectfully.

"Trouble leads the way." Song Lao said with a smile.

"Don't dare." The Janissary commander smiled in return.

Song Lao asked everyone to gather first, and then followed the heavily armed Praetorian Guard commander to the Sun and Moon Palace.

Of course, the dinner was not held here, but in the Longde Hall behind the Sun and Moon Palace.

However, before the Longde Palace, a group of people were already waiting halfway, it was none other than the Sun and Moon Emperor Xu Fu and a group of ninth-level soul masters, the ninth-level soul masters who could come to today's dinner were all Kong Deming's juniors and supporters of Xu Fu.

However, to Qin Ze's surprise, from a distance, he saw a pair of young brothers and sisters beside his old friend Jing Hongchen.

It is Xiao Hongchen and Dream Hongchen.

Song Lao and several elders were communicating cordially with Xu Fu and others, while Shrek's students were almost completely unified in their eyes and came into contact with the Xiao Hongchen brothers and sisters.

Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen looked a little emotional, obviously it was only a few months since the last competition, but a group of people seemed to meet again after many years.

Once an enemy, now a partner.

Jing Hongchen noticed this, and directly transmitted his soul power to his two precious grandchildren.

After hearing the content of the soul power transmission, Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen's faces changed, and then they smiled and signaled to the Shrek students.

No one on Shrek's side pretended to be arrogant, and they all smiled the same.

On one side, the exchange between the high-level officials of the Riyue royal family and Song Lao ended, and under the leadership of Xu Fu, a group of people headed towards the Longde Palace.

There is a very bright soul guide light outside the Dragon Virtue Hall, and this palace is magnificent, with two unknown dragon statues guarding the two sides of the palace.

The vermilion gate of the palace was open, and interestingly, a large number of officials also appeared, waiting in front of the door, they had just not been allowed to follow Shrek to greet the others.

"Alright, let's go and sit down." Xu Fu glanced at the civil and military officials, and he waved his robe.

"Yes." The officials replied en masse, then dispersed into the hall to find their places and sit down.

The entire dinner was divided into two stairs, the innermost area was where the emperor and the ninth-level soul masters and Shrek were sitting, while the outer area was where the officials were sitting.

"Hongchen Hall Master, I'm sorry for you to take the guests into their seats." Xu Fu looked at Hongchen with his glasses.

Jing Hongchen took the order, smiled and exchanged glances with his former opponent, and then arched his hand to Song Lao, "Song Lao, I haven't seen you for a long time, please come with me." ”

Song Lao had participated in the attack on Xu Tianran at the beginning, and Jing Hongchen had actually recognized Song Lao a long time ago.

However, this time is not that time, the boss of the Sun and Moon Empire has changed, and Jing Hongchen naturally doesn't bother to care about the original thing.

Song Lao looked at Glasses Hongchen with interest, she turned around and nodded to Shrek, and soon, a group of people took their seats under Jing Hongchen's arrangement.

In front of each person there is a table with a delicate texture made of fine rosewood.

Xu Fu sat in the first place, the Sun and Moon executives sat on his left, and Shrek was on Xu Fu's right.

After seeing that everyone was seated, Xu Fu glanced at the maids beside him, and when the maids saw this, they quickly began to summon the people in the imperial dining room to pass the meal, and after a while, a large number of maids held jade plates in their hands and put dishes on the table in front of everyone.

Xu Fu didn't seem to care about etiquette, and the number of dishes arranged for everyone was the same.

At a glance, it can be said that it is full of color and flavor.

Pouring himself a glass of wine, Xu Fu then raised his glass, "I salute Shrek, thank you for your help." ”

"Your Majesty is gracious." Song Lao said with a smile, and also raised his wine glass, as the leader of this team, everything is subject to her.

Xu Fu swallowed the wine in one gulp, he glanced at the civil and military officials who didn't dare to move the chopsticks, and said with a smile: "You don't have to be restrained, just order at will, today's dinner is the main thing." ”

Seeing this, the officials began to eat and drink enthusiastically. Xu Fu doesn't like etiquette very much, they know it, anyway, Your Majesty spoke, they stopped, Your Majesty didn't talk to them, then they ate and drank happily, anyway, today's dinner, they just accompanied the guests.

At the dinner, neither of the two sides talked about anything related to political affairs, just some simple homely chats.

The officials chatted and enjoyed the dance music of the dancing girls, and the whole palace was full of softness.

The dinner lasted for more than two hours before it ended, and eventually, the dinner party ended, and everyone dispersed.

The officials left, but Shrek's group hadn't left yet, and Song Lao took the initiative to call Xu Fu, saying that there was something to discuss.

Song Lao spoke, Xu Fu did not refuse, and led a group of people to the imperial study.

Of course, Qin Ze and the other students did not go in, but waited quietly in the courtyard outside the imperial study.

In addition to them, there are also Xiao Hongchen brothers and sisters.

Jing Hongchen is now Xu Fu's henchman, so he naturally has to follow up.

"Excuse me, how is Wang Dong?" Meng Hongchen looked at Qin Ze and them, pursed his lips, and finally couldn't help but ask.

Wang Dong?

Ma Xiaotao looked at Meng Hongchen with a strange face.

Jing Ziyan, Emperor Yueli, and Tang Ya subconsciously crossed the corners of their mouths with a strange smile.

"Dreams." Xiao Hongchen on the side hurriedly stepped forward and called out to his sister, this girl, it's been so long, and she still can't forget that Wang Dong, it's a joke.

"Aze, do we want to tell her the truth?" Bei Bei came to Qin Ze's side and said.

Qin Ze thought about it, but shook his head, and replied, "If the truth is revealed, it is estimated that this guy will faint to death on the spot, after all, the man who has liked him for so long is actually a woman." ”

When Bei Bei heard this, he agreed, if it was him, if Xiaoya, who liked it, suddenly became a man, I am afraid that her heart would explode on the spot, and it would not taste very good.

Meng Hongchen didn't pay attention to his brother's persuasion, but looked at Qin Ze and them with great eagerness.

Qin Ze coughed a few times and said calmly: "Wang Dong, he is very good, and now he has a Soul Emperor-level cultivation. ”

Hearing this, Meng Hongchen's face was happy, but then her expression was a little twisted, and her pretty face was a little crimson, "Then, in your Shrek Academy, is there any girl pursuing him, or does he already have a girlfriend?" ”

It's hopeless!

Xiao Hongchen looked at the sister and covered her forehead with a headache.

I don't have a girlfriend, but my boyfriend has a ...... Qin Ze muttered in his heart, and then said with a smile: "No, Wang Dong is still single to this day." ”

The smile on Meng Hongchen's face became even warmer, she seemed to have made up her mind, turned around and grabbed Xiao Hongchen's hand, and said excitedly: "Brother, I want to tell my grandfather, I want to go to Shrek Academy." ”

Xiao Hongchen: "......"

This...... Xiao Hongchen suddenly didn't know what to say, he looked at Qin Ze and them as if asking for help.

Seeing this, Qin Ze immediately persuaded: "Wang Dong is not in the academy at the moment, and it is useless for you to go." ”

Meng Hongchen, who was holding Xiao Hongchen's hand, was stunned for a moment, Xiao Hongchen hurriedly pulled away his sister's hand, hid far away, and cast a grateful look at Qin Ze.

"Did he graduate from the outer courtyard and leave? With his talent, joining the inner courtyard shouldn't be a big problem, right? Meng Hongchen asked in disbelief.

Qin Ze suddenly felt that it was not right for him to hide this guy like this, but the matter had come to this point, and he could only continue to hide it, "That's not it, Wang Dong joined the inner courtyard, but what about it, he accepted the task of the academy, and he will be stationed outside to do tasks for a few years, so even if you go to the academy, you can't find anyone else." ”

"Huh?" Meng Hongchen's face stiffened, and finally sighed regretfully.

Xiao Hongchen looked at it, he always felt that Qin Ze was not telling the truth, so he thought about it for a while, and planned to quietly ask about the specific situation later.

"Old Song, is this true?" In the imperial study, Xu Fu looked at Song Lao with shock in his voice.

Not only Xu Fu, but the rest of the ninth-level soul masters were almost the same as his expressions.

After all, I suddenly learned that the Holy Spirit Sect had plans to arrange a custom soul guide cannonball to attack Mingdu, which was a big deal.

"Absolutely true. That's why after the dinner, I hurriedly reminded Your Majesty of you. Song Lao nodded and said in a deep voice.

"Hmph, this group of damned evil soul masters, it's not enough to persecute ordinary people everywhere, and now they are actually planning to attack Mingdu, if this is successful, how many people will have to die in Mingdu." Xu Fu's eyes widened with anger.

"Your Majesty, I suggest that most of them be sent to Yin Mountain immediately to exterminate this group of evil soul masters." Bupo Douluo's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and he spoke.

"Your Majesty, the ministers seconded the proposal." Several ninth-level soul masters were in favor of Immortal Douluo's opinion.

Star Douluo and Xu Tianyuan didn't speak, they were thinking about it.

However, just when Xu Fu was in the position of whether to send troops, Jing Hongchen spoke, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that you should not carry out extermination operations for the time being. ”

Hearing this, everyone present looked at Jing Hongchen, as for Song Lao and the other elders, they were quietly waiting for the discussion inside the sun and moon, after all, they were outsiders.

"Red Dust Hall Master, tell me what you think." Xu Fudao.

Jing Hongchen said in a condensed voice: "First, the location of Yin Mountain is extremely special, once we have a large-scale battle with the Evil Soul Master, it is extremely easy to attract the overlord in the Evil Demon Forest, the Evil Eye Tyrant, once the Evil Eye Tyrant Lord takes matters into his own hands, it will be a big problem." ”

"Second, we are so anxious to break the plan of the Holy Spirit Sect, we are afraid that we will startle the snake, now that we have at least known about this matter, we can take precautions at any time, such as putting an ultra-high-altitude soul guide probe in the area near Yinshan Mountain to monitor, in this way, their every move is under our control. But if they change their plans, then we can only empty the bamboo basket and gain nothing. ”

"I think you must also know that the Sea Soul Empire is gathering heavy troops in the southwest region of our country, but does the Sea Soul Empire really dare to go head-to-head with us? They did not, I think, because they intended to go to war against us, but in fact to take advantage of the emptiness within us, to attack everywhere and destabilize our rear. ”

"The situation in the empire has just stabilized, and once the rear is attacked, I am afraid that Your Majesty's efforts over this period of time will be in vain, and this is definitely the worst situation for us. You know, there are too many things like this. ”

After speaking, Jing Hongchen respectfully waited for Xu Fu's attitude.

"Your Majesty, the minister also has an idea." After Jing Hongchen finished speaking, Xu Tianyuan also spoke.

"Emperor Dragon King, please speak." Xu Fu shook his head.

Xu Tianyuan said in a deep voice: "Since the Sea Soul Empire has gathered heavy troops in the southwest region, we have simply gathered heavy troops to confront them in the southwest region on the surface, but in fact, we have arranged a large number of top soul masters and soul masters to guard the major military and economic cities waiting for them to attack our rear. ”

"When the target enters it, we will finally complete the capture of turtles in the urn, kill as many as we come, and weaken the strength of their soul master in one fell swoop."

Hearing this, everyone present was amazed, and the trap set by the soul master was definitely the most terrifying.

"As for the hidden evil soul master and custom soul guide shells on the side of Yin Mountain, hmph, they dare to move, there are a lot of ninth-level custom soul guide shells in the minister's hand, and the big deal is that the minister will directly smash Yin Mountain and make it their burial ground."

"If the Evil Emperor dares to join forces with the Evil Soul Master to attack us, then kill them all together, the 700,000-year-old soul ring soul bone is enough to offset our consumption."

In the end, Xu Tianyuan can be described as murderous.

Actually, he really didn't lie, in his storage soul guide, there were a full seven ninth-level customized soul guide shells, and with so many big killing weapons on his body, Douluo Continent was the only one.

This time, Xu Fu did not hesitate any longer, and immediately ordered: "Just act according to the arrangement of the Red Dust Hall Lord and the Imperial Dragon King, this time, whether we can severely damage these thieves in the Sea Soul Empire is a matter of one move." ”

"Yes." Except for Shrek and the others, all the high-ranking officials of the Sun and Moon Empire solemnly replied.

Seeing this, Song Lao said indifferently: "It's not too early, the old man will take the students back to the hotel to rest, if Your Majesty has something, you can notify me at any time." ”

Xu Fu smiled gently and said, "I'll let the Praetorian Guards escort you back to the hotel to rest." ”

Song Lao smiled and said, "I'm tired of Your Majesty, let's go back by ourselves." With that, Song Lao left the imperial study with the other three elders.

Not only Shrek's elders, but also a group of ninth-level soul masters are also planning to leave.

On the occasion of leaving, Jing Hongchen reminded Xu Fu, "Your Majesty, in terms of military affairs, you can ask Concubine Orange." ”

As soon as these words came out, Xu Tianyuan, Starry Sky Douluo and Unbroken Douluo all looked at Hongchen with more glasses.

"Ask the imperial sister-in-law?" Xu Fu was a little puzzled, but still nodded and said, "I know, you should go back and rest earlier." ”

"Yes." Everyone spoke in unison, and immediately exited the imperial study.

Outside the imperial study, Song Lao left with everyone, but it wasn't until a kilometer after leaving the palace that the appearance of a person made Shrek and everyone stop temporarily, and they all walked out of the carriage and came outside to watch.

This person is none other than Jing Hongchen and his grandchildren.

"Is there something wrong with the Red Dust Hall Master?" Song Lao looked at Jing Hongchen.

Jing Hongchen hugged his fists and smiled: "There is something I want to ask Song Lao for a favor." ”

"Help?" Song Lao said in surprise, "Tell me about it." ”

Jing Hongchen turned his gaze to his precious grandchildren and said, "I hope that in the future, when the students of your academy go out to do tasks, they can take them with them." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions moved slightly, and they didn't know what Jing Hongchen was planning to do.

Song Lao didn't directly agree, nor did she directly refuse, she was silent for a few seconds, and asked, "Are these brothers and sisters really willing to do things with us?" ”

"Yes. Please also ask Song Lao to agree. Without waiting for Jing Hongchen to speak, Xiao Hongchen took the initiative to stand up.

Qin Ze's eyes fell on Xiao Hongchen, and finally nodded, he felt that Xiao Hongchen was playing really.

"In that case." Song Lao smiled, "I agreed, tomorrow morning, you two brothers and sisters will come to the Mingyue Hotel." ”

"Thank you." Jing Hongchen saluted again, and then he said goodbye to Shrek and left with the brother and sister.

"Old Song, what did you promise him to do?" Ma Xiaotao asked curiously.

Qin Ze explained: "Because he is the master of the Mingde Hall, our ten Inner Court Soul Guide Department students are all studying in the Mingde Hall, and if we bring his grandchildren, he will definitely treat our students well." ”

Old Song smiled and nodded, "Aze is right, I have to say that this Hongchen Hall Master, as a subordinate of the former Xu Tianran, is still standing now, but he is a strong man. Alright, let's go back too. ”

The evening breeze blew up and dispelled the heat......

It's not long, it's not short, it's just right, ask for a wave of recommendation votes, thank you to the handsome guys and beauties.
