Chapter 652 The second most beautiful woman in the world

Shenzhou Empire, Hongluan Imperial City.

Everyone envies the emperor for his power over the world. In fact, being an emperor also has a lot of troubles. He only needs to attend the morning court early every day, and he also has to listen to a bunch of ministers talking nonsense.

For example, today, the morning meeting was very controversial.

The empress was sitting on the dragon chair, wearing a yellow robe and a crown on her head. There was a hazy airflow on her face, blocking her... pig head.

The ministers have long been accustomed to it. Ever since the Hong Ling Empress was cursed, she always looks like this when she goes to court.

The Shenzhou Empire uses the six-ministry system, but the Minister of Rites stood up and said: "Your Majesty, this dynasty has been a country for nearly five hundred years. I sincerely ask your Majesty to ennoble the gods to calm the people."

"I second the proposal. Luzhou in Beiju is unified by the gods, and the people have faith in their hearts. On the other hand, we in Dongsheng Shenzhou have no unified beliefs, and it is difficult to form a universal etiquette." The Minister of Rites, who has a bigger name than the Minister, also stood up. Spoken.

"Who said that China has no etiquette and law?" A bachelor from the Hanlin Academy stood up and objected: "The "Chinese Code" established at the beginning of the founding of the country is the foundation of the country."

"The words of the liberal arts scholar are right. We are a great country and we don't need to learn from outsiders." The old Minister of the Ministry of War stood up and said: "In the past, in order to commemorate the martyrs, your Majesty built the Hall of Heroes to let those soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country. There is something to rely on. In the eyes of the veteran, this is more sincere than the gods of the Three Kingdoms of Beiju."

At this time, the Minister of Punishment spoke: "Your Majesty, today's folk beliefs are in chaos. There are people worshiping evil gods and obscene sacrifices, and there are also evil monks who deceive people's hearts and proclaim themselves gods. The Punishment Ministry has received thousands of similar cases over the years. If this continues, the consequences will be unimaginable."

The Minister of Punishment was quite prestigious in the court. As soon as he opened his mouth, most people agreed.

Others lamented the shortcomings and implored the emperor to make gods as soon as possible.

After listening to this, the empress finally spoke: "Shang Shu Zhou, please tell me how to grant an imperial seal?"

Zhou Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites said: "We might as well learn from the practice of Beiju Luzhou and ennoble the loyal and righteous people who sacrificed their lives for the country in the past as the land of the mountain gods. Instead of letting those evil gods confuse the people's hearts, it is better to let the martyrs who have truly contributed to our country , enjoy the worship of the people.”

The empress nodded and asked: "So, do you have suitable candidates for the righteous gods of mountains and righteous rivers?"

"The mountain god of the largest mountain in China, the minister suggested to confer the title of General Huang..." A minister had some personal information. The old general he recommended was his wife's grandfather.

"Your Majesty, you should not avoid relatives when making recommendations. Lord God of the Canglan River, I would like to recommend the late Shen Yong Hou..." Another minister really does not avoid relatives when recommending talents. Shen Yong Hou was his great-grandfather who died in the war that year.

Next, most of the courtiers began to bring in private goods.

Most of the recommended candidates for righteousness are related to these ministers.

The empress saw through it but did not tell her, and asked again: "If it is to be a god, there should be a main god. My dear friends, you might as well tell me who is the most suitable."

In just one sentence, the war started.

When it comes to the main god, that is an absolute C position, and none of the ministers are willing to give in.

Once the grand ceremony of enthroning the gods in the past 500 years since the founding of the country is held, too many interests are involved, and even future generations are involved. These ministers who have become elites will become red-faced and everyone wants to maximize their interests.

"enough!"

Seeing that the ministers were arguing and almost swearing, the empress shouted coldly: "My beloved ministers, please discuss it first. Once we have the regulations, we will discuss the matter of canonizing the gods and withdraw from the court!"

After saying that, he turned around and left.

All the ministers were silent, and the old ministers all understood that this time they had angered His Majesty.

However, this is also normal. When it comes to major matters, it often needs to be argued in the court ten or eight times before all parties reach a unified opinion before a final conclusion can be reached.

No one understood that the empress had long been numb to the ministers' factional pursuit of interests, and was far from angry.

What really made her angry was that the guardian spirit beast she used to guard the [Jing Hua Shui Yue] portal was killed.

When the one-horned black python died, the empress felt something.

She went to Weiyang Palace, dismissed everyone, changed into a set of clothes in seconds, and then opened a space passage.

The empress who got into the passage suddenly became another person.

In the Shenzhou Empire, she is a high-ranking emperor, and her words and deeds must have the demeanor of an emperor.

But by the small lake in Dongtian, Qingcheng, she was not in her own country, not even in her own world, and she preferred to be herself.

The Hong Ling Empress is a very simple little girl who still retains the unknown girlish heart.

"Little black!"

"Who killed my Xiaohei!"

Her cry was full of girlish anger.

Pei Yin was a little distracted when he heard the voice that sounded like an eighteen-year-old girl.

To say that the woman with the most complicated emotions in his life was none other than the Empress. Outsiders will never understand that kind of sadness.

The excitement of asking His Majesty to turn around is unimaginable to outsiders.

Only by personal experience can you understand how contradictory and complicated it is.

The small and cute feet walked on the water as if they were walking on flat ground.

Against the background of that classic and luxurious red dress, the girl's figure is like a celestial being.

A woman with such a perfect figure has a pig head.

This time, Pei Yin was not as frightened as he was in his previous life. He looked at the pig head seriously.

Empress Hong Ling was also looking at him, shocked by Long Xiaoyao's appearance.

In the past five hundred years, she has seen countless beautiful men in China, but she has never seen anything like this.

The girl's heart that was usually hidden began to beat.

The beating heart prevented the empress from taking action immediately. She asked like an angry little girl: "Why did you kill me, Xiao Hei?"

Pei Yin said calmly: "It wanted to eat me, so I had to kill it."

The empress asked like a cute girl: "Who are you and why are you here?"

Pei Yin remained calm: "Sanxiu Long Xiaoyao, followed the guidance of the dream and came here."

"Dream?" The empress looked more like a girl. She blinked and thought for a while, then looked at the handsome man opposite her repeatedly, and then changed the subject: "You're so weird, why are you staring at me?"

Pei Yin said the most unconscionable line in his past life: "Because you are beautiful."

The girlish aura of the empress disappeared, replaced by a cold murderous intention: "Are you laughing at me?"

Pei Yin was still so calm: "People in the world only look at the appearance of thousands of creatures. But I, Long Xiaoyao, can see the true nature."

The empress's murderous intent subsided slightly, and she said half-convinced and half-suspicious: "What does the true face you see look like?"

Pei Yin only said one word: "Beautiful."

The empress regained her girlish heart: "How beautiful is she?"

Pei Yin maintained a sense of mystery: "The second most beautiful woman in the world."

"Second in the world?"

The Empress Hong Ling was stunned and full of curiosity: "Who is number one in the world?"

Pei Yin said: "She is my wife."

The empress was even more curious: "Is your wife really that beautiful?"

Pei Yin's answer was meaningful: "It doesn't matter. In my heart, she must be the most beautiful woman in the world, otherwise she will beat me to death."

The empress burst out laughing. She couldn't even remember how many years she had laughed like this.

After a while, she laughed enough and expressed her stance: "I wanted to kill you and bury you with Xiao Hei. Seeing how interesting you are, you can replace Xiao Hei and be my pet. I will spare your life."

This time it was Pei Yin's turn to laugh: "Haha, I didn't expect that the destined person that the immortal in my dream guided me to find would actually want me to be his pet. If I had known better, I wouldn't have come."

"The Immortal in the Dream?" The empress looked at the confused man in confusion.

"That's right, Long received the guidance of an immortal in a dream and came here from the Eastern Tang Dynasty to rescue the destined person who was suffering." Pei Yin entered the magic stick mode: "If I guessed correctly, that destined person is you ”

"How did you know that I was suffering?" The empress became more vigilant.

"I studied three ancient stone tablets in the middle level of the dream and learned a lot. According to the immortal's instructions, one of the methods can help you escape from the sea of ​​suffering and restore your original appearance." Pei Yin said in a calculating tone.

As soon as she heard "restore her true self", the empress fell into a cold state, seeming to sneer: "What kind of method can help me escape from the sea of ​​suffering?"

Pei Yin replied with three words: "Thirteen guns."

"what?"

The empress couldn't stand up any longer and jumped up uncontrollably.
