Chapter 1569: White Lotus Palace
"Ladies and gentlemen of the Tang Kingdom, this is the White Lotus City, the capital of our White Lotus Kingdom.
This city was really rebuilt after the destruction of the old White Lotus City, and it has a history of 3,000 years. ”
Fan said to everyone with a smile.
Ye Li was a little surprised when he heard this, he didn't expect that the history of this city was so long.
Afterwards, he entered the city with the envoys.
In the center of the city, a huge snow-white palace was built on a high platform far above the ground in the city, and the huge palace could be seen from a distance as soon as you entered the city.
The palace is snow-white, and the platform below is a white lotus with a slight blue glow, which looks a little sacred.
"That's the White Lotus Palace, I haven't been here in years. ”
Huo Xing spoke.
Lifan walked towards the White Lotus Palace with the envoys, and soon came to the front of the palace.
Beneath the high platform around the huge palace stood two huge golden statues on each side, both of which depicted human figures in armor.
However, these sculptures of human figures look strange, because some of them have four faces, eight arms, some have three-eyed fangs, and none of them are normal human figures.
Suddenly, Ye Li suddenly remembered that when he was in the Land of the Water Soul Seal, the image of the huge golden phantom condensed with a special rune treasure when the White Lotus Country squad was fighting seemed to be exactly the same as one of the eight statues.
"This is the Eight Heavenly Dragons of the White Lotus Kingdom, representing the eight Guardian Heavenly Kings, all of whom are powerful beings from the legendary primeval period.
It is also the guardian of the first White Lotus Holy Venerable in the legend. ”
He was introduced to the members of the mission, including the night.
Huo Xing knew these legends, but not all the others knew about these things.
This time, there were not many members of the legation, only ten in total.
In addition to the carriage that Ye Li was riding in, there were also two carriages that were carrying some precious things, which were also gifts from the Tang Kingdom to the White Lotus Kingdom.
The rest of the envoys were only responsible for offering gifts and accompanying them, and the only people who really wanted to participate in the audience with the White Lotus Venerable were Ye Li and Huo Xing.
After arranging the other members of the envoy to rest at the post station next to the White Lotus Palace, he prepared to report to the White Lotus Venerable that the Tang envoy had arrived.
Ye Li and Huo Xing were waiting at the gate of the White Lotus Palace for the time being.
Li Fan walked into the White Lotus Palace and quickly found the White Lotus Holy Venerable.
"Holy Venerable, the envoys of the Tang Kingdom have arrived. ”
Lifan said to the White Lotus Holy Venerable.
The White Lotus Saint Venerable looked like a kind old man, a little older, his face was full of wrinkles and white hair, but his ruddy face and the abundant look in his eyes made him not look old at all.
"Are you already here, who is leading the team this time, Huo Xing, right?"
The White Lotus Holy Venerable asked in a deep voice.
Li Fan shook his head and said, "It was Huo Xing and a young man named Ye Li who led the team, but according to my observation, it seems that Ye Li is the real leader." ”
"Ye Li, what kind of person is this, why haven't I heard of it?"
The White Lotus Holy Venerable asked with a puzzled face.
Li Fan shook his head and said, "Actually, my subordinates have only heard about it, saying that this guy is the strongest person among the younger generation of the Tang Kingdom, and he has reached the realm of Emperor Fu."
However, even if he reaches the realm of Fu Huang, he should not override Huo Xing's head and become a real team leader!"
The White Lotus Holy Venerable frowned and said, "The purpose of these Tang people coming to us is to form an alliance, and now Li Rushan has been forced into a desperate situation, and he has no choice at all except to form an alliance with us.
I thought that this time he would choose to personally send an envoy to our country and ask us for cooperation, but I didn't expect him to send a little-known junior to get up, and he inevitably didn't take my White Lotus Kingdom too seriously. ”
Hearing his words, Liao Fan was stunned for a moment, and said: "His subordinates also feel this way, not to mention that Li Rushan will come in person, he should at least send one of his high-ranking subordinates over."
Now he has sent a junior who is barely famous, and he looks down on us a little.
Holy Venerable, the Tang Kingdom looks down on us so much, do we still want to form an alliance with them?"
The White Lotus Saint Venerable glanced at Fan and said, "Forming an alliance is a matter that Li Rushan has no choice, and for us, how can it not be.
Li Rulin occupied one-third of the land of the Tang Kingdom, joined forces with the Great Yuan Kingdom, and now forced Li Rushan into a desperate situation.
Once Li Rushan is defeated, the Tang State will completely fall into the hands of Li Rulin.
Do you think our White Lotus Kingdom can resist the strength of the Great Yuan Kingdom and the Tang Kingdom uniting together!?
I don't know what the civil strife in the Great Yuan Kingdom is all about, how could Bee Zhesha ascend to the throne so easily, and he also made peace with Li Rulin.
The Tang Dynasty was in turmoil, and the Great Yuan State should let them fight, and now they are obviously joining forces with greater ambitions, could it be that they want to combine the forces of the two countries and annex the entire continent?"
The White Lotus Holy Venerable speculated.
Li Fan glanced at him in shock and said, "Holy Venerable, if those two really have this kind of thought, we really have only one choice to cooperate with Li Rushan." ”
The White Lotus Saint Venerable nodded and said, "That's right, Li Rushan must know this, so he dares to send some people to ask for an alliance at will."
Hmph, I can marry him, but we don't have to give face, isn't the Lotus Festival celebration coming, find a chance to make them a little ugly.
Their Great Yuan Kingdom and Tang Kingdom don't take our White Lotus Kingdom in their eyes all year round, and he Li Rushan still dares to have the same attitude now that he is struggling in a desperate situation, we can't get used to him too much. ”
After the White Lotus Saint Venerable finished speaking with a gloomy face, he waved his hand and said, "Go and invite them in, you can arrange the rest of the matter." ”
Hearing this, his eyes rolled and he hurriedly saluted.
After the White Lotus Saint Venerable watched Fan leave, the gloomy look on his face suddenly changed to a kind and kind appearance, with a bright and holy aura in his eyes.
After Li Fan walked out of the White Lotus Palace, he looked at Ye Li and Huo Xingdao with a smile on his face: "The two distinguished guests have been waiting for a long time, Lord Saint Venerable has just been dealing with government affairs, and now he has just been free, let me quickly invite you in." ”
Ye Li and Huo Xing nodded, and they didn't doubt him, so they followed Fan into the White Lotus Palace together.
Stepping into the palace, a strange fragrance came to his face, and Ye Li suddenly felt a peace in his heart.
I saw that there were incense burners and candlesticks everywhere in the White Lotus Palace, and they were emitting and curling thin smoke.
The furnishings in the palace are very simple, and there are frescoes on the walls and ceilings of the palace, all of which are characters with different expressions and solemn appearances.
Ye Li didn't know these people either, but he thought it was likely to be the Holy Venerable of the White Lotus Kingdom in the past dynasties, or some important figures.
