Chapter 344 Treasure Offering
While the two were talking, Gong Yanggan's voice outside came: "Ji Gong, we're here."

As Gong Yanggan's voice sounded, the speed of the carriage gradually slowed down.

Lu Yuanzhi raised his head and glanced at Ji Xuan.

Ji Xuan nodded to him with a smile and said: "Go down."

Lu Yuanzhi nodded and followed Ji Xuan out of the carriage.

After getting off the carriage, Lu Yuanzhi took a deep breath.

Looking at Ji Xuan's back in front of him, he felt for the first time that the morning sun was not as warm as he imagined.

Ji Xuan's back looks so unattainable in his eyes now.

During the conversation in the carriage just now, Lu Yuanzhi even felt that he was like a naked girl in front of Ji Gong, without any secrets at all.

Even just now Ji Gong looked at himself confidently and asked himself if he had traveled through time, and he probably would have answered yes.

The feeling of being seen through but not told from beginning to end has made him still not recover at a young age.

"Don't think so much."

Ji Xuan's gentle voice came from the front.

"Today I will deal with your Majesty Chaoyue. The rest will wait until next morning. Let's go back and talk slowly."

Hearing this, Lu Yuanzhi took a deep breath, ignored the curious glances from around him, and followed Ji Xuan closely.

After walking outside the hall, Lu Yuan saw a familiar figure at a glance.

It was Chao Yue whom she had seen yesterday, but at this time, Chao Yue had changed her clothes. The luxurious purple robe was draped on her body, and the red mole between her eyebrows became more and more eerie.

Behind him was still the big man in a bamboo hat.

After seeing Lu Yuan, Chaoyue's eyes suddenly turned cold, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, revealing a sneer.

After Lu Yuanzhi felt his gaze, he frowned.

The two looked at each other, neither of them spoke, but they could both feel the murderous intent in the other's eyes.

……

After seeing Lu Yuan behind Ji Xuan, all the Yong court officials in the previous dynasty showed either contempt or admiration.

The ministers headed by Ji Xuan all smiled and came up to salute after seeing Ji Xuan:

"I have met the Duke."

"hehe."

Ji Xuan also smiled and saluted one by one.

At this time, the Jinluan Palace was still empty.

Someone at the door carefully searched the clothes of the minister who came to court.

But he was searching for Ji Xuan.

After all, regardless of whether Ji Xuan brought weapons to the palace or not, as long as he wanted to, no one present could stop him.

"The Emperor has arrived!"

Just when Lu Yuanzhi was standing at the arranged position, a sharp and gentle voice sounded in Jinluan Hall.

When this voice sounded, everyone's faces became serious.

After Jianhong appeared with a majestic look, everyone knelt down.

"I have met my emperor and paid my respects to him."

"No gifts."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Lu Yuanzhi was naturally one of the people who bowed down.

After traveling through time for so many years, he has already become accustomed to the rules of this world.

Although he sometimes wants to break these rules, he knows that if he acts independently when he has not grown up, he will only become one of the abandoned people of this era.

"Something's going to happen."

Jianhong's face was expressionless and he did not speak. The eunuchs beside him looked at the courtiers and asked questions.

"Your Majesty, the demon clan's envoys have been waiting outside the palace for a long time. When will Your Majesty summon them?"

In this place, the Minister of Rites stood up with a serious face, lowered his head and asked.

Upon hearing the news, Jianhong's eyes moved slightly.

The envoys from the demon tribe have been in Panheng in the capital for many days. He has already received the news, but he has never had time to see them.

"Call."

Jianhong pondered for a moment, then spoke calmly, and his voice reached everyone's ears.

"Yes."

"The Xuanyao Clan is here."

Not long after the eunuch's voice spread outside the palace.

Under the gaze of all the courtiers, Chaoyue and the big man in a bamboo hat walked into the Jinluan Hall without being humble or arrogant.

"Prince Chaoyue of the demon clan has met His Majesty Emperor Yong. I wish His Majesty the Emperor peace."

The sneer on Chaoyue's face just now turned into a gentle smile. After he walked into the hall, he saluted Jianhong on the dragon throne.

The big man in a bamboo hat behind him knelt down directly:
"Greetings to His Majesty Emperor Dayong."

"No gift."

Jianhong saw Chao Yue and the man in a bamboo hat saluting, and nodded lightly.

After the two stood up, Jianhong did not speak in a hurry. Usually, when the envoy could meet with the emperor, the meeting was basically done after the Ministry of Rites and the envoy had already negotiated.

So this is just a ceremony, and the two people present knew it well.

"It is a great blessing for me to meet His Majesty Emperor Dayong today."

The gentle smile on Chaoyue's face remained. After he stood up, he glanced at the ministers in the palace and then said:

"The demon tribe came to envoy my father and asked me three things specifically. The first one is to express condolences to the civil and military officials of the Great Yong Dynasty and His Majesty the Emperor."

"hehe."

No one would care about Chaoyue's ceremonial question without any substance.

Jianhong just laughed:
"I will thank the Demon Emperor for his condolences on behalf of all the civil and military officials of my court."

"In addition to expressing condolences, my father also specifically confessed to the foreign ministers that after saying goodbye at Yumen Pass, he still had a vivid memory of the majestic appearance of the Yong Dynasty, but he had never seen him again since then. I regret this life, so I specially prepared a gift for Marquis Weiwu, hoping that the foreign minister can hand it over to him..."

Having said this, Chaoyue paused for a moment, then continued with a smile:
"I wonder if the mighty prince of your dynasty is in the palace?"

After he finished speaking, everyone in the hall fell silent, and for a moment the whole hall was extremely silent.

No one dares to answer this question.

Very few people in Dayong know the news about the assassination of Weiwuhou, and even those who know it don't dare to gossip. After all, Weiwuhou can be said to be Dayong's Dinghai Shenzhen. If the news spreads, there may be some evil moths.

After a long time, Jianhong replied calmly:
"Marquis Wei Wu is out on business and is not in the capital. I will accept any gifts for him first and then hand them over to him when he comes back."

Hearing Jianhong's words, Chaoyue felt slightly reassured, and the expression on his face did not change. He smiled slightly and said:

"I wonder if Your Majesty can conveniently tell the foreign ministers about the position of the mighty lord. After all, it is something that the father specially ordered, and the foreign ministers should personally hand it over to the mighty lord... The foreign minister is also afraid that he will not be able to accomplish anything and return to the demon clan and suffer the consequences of his father. The emperor blamed."

Chaoyue's purpose in coming to Dayong is simple.

Just to test out the news about Wei Wuhou.

Under this temptation, he obviously felt something from Jianhong's attitude just now.

Jianhong was slightly silent in response to Chao Yue's questioning. He obviously didn't want to answer this question.

Seeing Jianhong's silence, the eunuch on the side immediately understood. He stood up and looked at Chaoyue seriously and said:
"The whereabouts of my Majesty the Great Yongwei is a secret. How can I tell anyone about national affairs at will?"

After hearing the eunuch's words, the smile on Chaoyue's face grew stronger, and he apologized:

"It was the foreign minister who was rude. Please don't blame me, Your Majesty."

"Ah."

Seeing Chao Yue's expression, Jianhong took a deep breath and pretended to be indifferent and said:
"You don't understand the affairs of our country, Dayong. It doesn't matter. Just don't do it again."

"Foreign ministers, please take note."

Chao Yue lowered her head, but the smile on her lips was extremely bright.

This matter can be ended here.

I already got the answer I wanted, so there was no need to ask any more questions.

Dayong's mighty warriors may have...

Ha ha.

Thinking of this, Chaoyue calmed down the expression on her face, raised her head and said:

"The gift prepared for the mighty prince is an inch of hair from the famous leader of the Xiaotian Silver Wolf Clan in our Demon Kingdom. The hair brush made from this tail can be said to be the best in the world."

As he said this, someone walked in from outside the hall, carrying a red cloth tray with a respectful look on his face, and came to the hall.

Everyone's eyes were attracted to the small bundle of silver-white hair on the tray.

Although the hair didn't look very stunning, it exuded an intoxicating fragrance as soon as they entered the palace. When they looked at the hair, everyone's pupils unconsciously shrank.

The power exuding from the hair makes people unable to take their eyes away.

Although it is just hair, everyone can feel that the owner of this hair is definitely a giant demon.

"good."

Seeing the items on the tray, Jianhong smiled lightly and nodded.

"To express the friendship between my demon clan and Dayong, my demon clan specially prepared three treasures to present to His Majesty the Emperor. I hope that our demon clan and Dayong will always be reconciled, no war will break out, and the people of our respective clans will be in peace."

Chaoyue looked extremely serious at this time.

"I wonder what kind of treasure it is?"

Jianhong looked at Chaoyue calmly and asked.

Chaoyue smiled slightly:
"The first one is the clam pearl that is abundant in the Ten Thousand Miles Pond in our Demon Kingdom. There is only one clam pearl in ten thousand years, and there is no other pearl in the world."

As he said this, someone continued to drag the tray and walked into the hall.

On the tray, a pearl as big as a fist shined.

Everyone was stunned by its light. For a while, some people couldn't stand its light and had to squint their eyes to take a closer look.

"The nature of this pearl is yin. If you put it in the study room, whether you are reading or reviewing, it will help you calm down. In the long run, your mood will improve."

Chao Yue looked at the minister of the DPRK, who was already slightly absent-minded, with a trace of pride flashing on his face.

Although this pearl is not as exaggerated as he said it was the only one in the world among the demon clan, it is definitely a rare treasure.

"hehe."

Seeing this treasure, the expression on Jianhong's face became obviously gentle, and he smiled:

"The emperor of the demon clan is also serious."

"The second treasure is a robe made of silk woven by the Silkworm King of the White Jade Silkworm clan in our demon clan."

With that said, someone else respectfully dragged the red cloth tray into the hall.

On top of the tray is a thin white robe.

At first glance, there is nothing outstanding about this robe, but if you look closely, you can find something unusual in it. The thin white robe gives people a sense of heavy contrast, which makes people a little stunned for a while.

"This robe may appear to be as thin as a cicada's wings, but it is actually the toughest in the world. It is impervious to water and fire and can even bring good luck to people."

With that said, Chaoyue walked up to the person carrying the tray with a smile, picked up the robe and said:
"Please ask His Majesty Dayong to find someone to try on. No one can break this robe."

Hearing his words, Jianhong's mouth twitched unconsciously.

Do you really think I am a common man?

"No need, I believe you."

Jianhong chuckled and waved casually, looked at Chaoyue and asked curiously:
"I wonder what the third treasure is?"

Hearing this, the corners of Chao Yue's mouth curled up slightly. He gently placed the robe on the tray and clapped his hands toward the outside of the hall.

After a while, two people entered the hall carrying a box.

Seeing this ordinary box, everyone among the courtiers showed curiosity.

The first two treasures can be said to be very rare.

This final treasure shouldn't be worse than the previous ones, right?
When everyone was curious, Chaoyue's voice also sounded:

"I wonder if His Majesty Dayong has ever heard of Tianwei?"

Hearing Chao Yue's words, everyone's brows frowned slightly.

Tianwei...

Almost everyone who has a casual understanding of the history of the Monster Clan knows this.

Naturally, Jianhong was not an ignorant person. He smiled lightly and said:

"Tianwei is the former demon king of the demon clan. She suddenly disappeared three hundred years ago. It is rumored that she broke the void barrier and went to the supreme demon world..."

Hearing Jianhong's voice, Chao Yue's lips curled up. He looked at Jianhong calmly and said:
"The supreme demon realm is nonsense, and the shattered void barrier is just a rumor. In fact, the real reason is that in order to break through the demon clan's supreme realm, the Tianwei Demon Emperor chose to use his weapons to liberate the demon emperor's body and use his identity as five spirits to scatter. All over Kyushu..."

"Oh?"

After hearing Chaoyue's words, Jianhong's face was full of interest:

"Does this have anything to do with this third treasure?"

Chaoyue was calm and leisurely, he smiled slowly, came to the box and said:
"In this box is one of the five spirits separated by the Sky Tail Demon Emperor."

Everyone had a confused look on their faces.

"What are the Five Spirits?"

Jianhong frowned lightly and looked at Chao Yuewen.

Feeling Jianhong's impatience, Chaoyue bowed and explained:
"The demon emperor's body will be rejected by heaven if it reaches the highest level. Without the help of the power of heaven and earth, it will be difficult to have successors. Therefore, the demon emperor of Tianwei came up with the plan of dividing the body into five incarnations by dividing the body into spirits. Scattered throughout Kyushu, these five incarnations do not belong to each other, nor do they recognize each other."

"But it will unconsciously absorb the spiritual power between heaven and earth. When the five incarnations gather together again, it will be the time when the demon emperor Tianwei is reborn. At that time, the five incarnations have absorbed the power of heaven and earth for hundreds of years. Melted together..."

Having said this, he said nothing more.

But everyone understood what he meant.

At that time, the Demon Emperor Tianwei will break through to the highest level of the Demon Emperor!
"So, you demon clan members dedicated this spirit body to me, Dayong, because you don't want the Tianwei Demon Emperor to be reborn?"

Jianhong looked at Chaoyue, whose Highness was talking eloquently, with a half-smile but not a smile.

Chaoyue did not deny it, he smiled faintly:

"There is an old saying in Dayong that once the emperor is the emperor, there are always ministers. There is no place for the Demon Emperor Tianwei among the demon clan today."

"Hahahaha! You people from the demon clan have always been outspoken!"

While Jianhong laughed, the mockery on his face lingered.
