After all the sacrifices have been made to speed pass, who is still practicing hard skills?

Chapter 387: Colliding with the Queen! Jiang Che's character!
"Bang!!!"

There was a loud bang.

Queen Xue threw the glazed jade cup on the table to the ground with shock and anger on her face.

"Bold! How bold!"

"How dare Jiang Che contradict me like this!"

"I will definitely report him to His Majesty!"

Jiang Che's words made Queen Xue fall into a state of rage. She knew that Jiang Che had a temper, but she never thought that he would be so bold.

Not only did he contradict her in person, but he also used such arrogant words.

She is the queen!
The most noble woman in the world today.

"Your Majesty, calm down. Your Majesty, calm down."

The furious Queen Xue did not scare Jiang Che, but instead frightened the female official accompanying her. She quickly knelt down, crawled on the ground and trembled.

"Go ahead, I want to meet your Majesty and explain this boy's crimes!"

Queen Xue scolded angrily.

"Your Majesty, you can't do that. Your Majesty, you can't do that."

The female official quickly advised.

"Why not?"

"Your Majesty, although it was the Marquis of Guanjun who offended you, it would be difficult to resolve the situation if it gets out of hand. After all, this matter was caused by the Third Prince, and Jiang Che has reason to refute it.

Plus, now that the envoys from the Northern Barbarians have come to the capital, Jiang Che is responsible for the reputation of the imperial court. Even if His Majesty knew about it, he would at most just give them a mild reprimand.

But what you got in return was a great loss of face for Your Majesty. What's more, the Marquis of Guanjun has the support of King Kaoshan behind him. If the court officials really get to know that you are against King Kaoshan.

It is the Third Prince that is affected."

The female official kneeling on the ground quickly stated the pros and cons.

As soon as she finished speaking, Queen Xue froze in place. The anger in her heart quickly dissipated, but the anger on her face was still hard to eliminate, and she looked unwilling:

"Could it be that I really can't do anything to this person?"

Since she took the throne of queen, has she ever suffered such humiliation?

How dare a foreign official speak so rudely?

If her Xue family's base was in the capital, they would never be bullied like this.

"My queen, even if you want Jiang Che to pay a price, you should wait until the Northern Barbarian envoy leaves before thinking of a solution. Otherwise, it will be difficult to shake the Champion Marquis."

Queen Xue's face turned pale and she wanted to vent her anger, but she also knew that what the female official said was right. If she lost her temper at this moment, she would not be able to hurt Jiang Che at all, but would instead affect Sheng'er.

After a long silence, she let out a long sigh:

"I will make Jiang Che pay the price in the future."

"You are really arrogant. You even dare to contradict the emperor's woman. After all, she is the empress." On the way out, the silent Red Blood Demon Lord Lu Chenfeng suddenly spoke.

Ever since Jiang Che came to the capital, Lu Chenfeng has fallen into silence, especially when meeting the Emperor and King Kaoshan, he dared not make any noise.

"If someone respects me a foot, I will return a foot. If someone bullies me an inch, I will kill their entire family. Senior, don't you understand my character? I think I have been tolerant enough towards Ji Changsheng and his mother.

But the result was that they were getting more and more aggressive. If that was the case, why should I continue to tolerate them? They had a good idea, to use my power to increase their prestige.

But are they worthy?"

Jiang Che is a bold and daring person at heart. He has no fear of anyone or anything, otherwise he would not have threatened Princess Ning and coerced the Queen of Nanyue.

Even when facing the emperor, he had his own little thoughts.

Not to mention a woman who has lived in the palace for a long time, and a prince of average ability.

"Then what are you going to do next?"

"I really can't control the queen, but I can't say the same about Ji Changsheng. As long as we can find evidence that makes Ji Changsheng lose his chance to be crowned as the heir, we can make them regret their actions today."

"Although they are not very smart, they are definitely not stupid. It is almost impossible to obtain evidence of their crimes."

Jiang Che looked indifferent:

"If there is no evidence, then we have to create evidence for them. I really don't believe they are so clean in private."

"What will you do after you get the evidence? You don't want to use this opportunity to taste the emperor's woman, do you?"

Jiang Che's mouth twitched:
"Blood Demon, do you still not trust my character?"

Red Blood Demon Lord: “Hehehehe.”

After Jiang Che left the imperial city, Queen Xue, who had figured out everything, immediately sent someone to deliver a message to Ji Changsheng, saying that her attempt to win over Jiang Che had failed, and asked him to minimize the impact as much as possible.

Ji Changsheng was somewhat disappointed by this. He had originally thought that with the intervention of his mother, Jiang Che would be able to compromise and even support him in his bid for the throne. However, the result was that not only did he fail to win him over.

Instead, he developed a considerable rift with Jiang Che.

But even though he was disappointed, he still understood the current situation and immediately asked people to spread the news, saying that the previous banquet was just a rumor spread by outsiders.

In fact, he did not invite the Champion Marquis to the banquet. The other party was preparing for war and it was impossible for him to attend any banquet.

However, the other princes guessed the problem with his explanation. Thinking that others' misfortune would be their own gain, the other princes spared no effort to stir up trouble.

Rumors began to spread in the capital that Ji Changsheng was angry and humiliated because he failed to invite Jiang Che, so he tried to force Jiang Che to submit by other means, but Jiang Che did not care about his status as a prince at all and still refused to attend the banquet.

Driven by several forces, the incident became a hot topic in the capital in just one day.

Of course, this only happened within a specific circle, and most ordinary people had no way of knowing it. Some court officials also privately lowered their opinions of Ji Changsheng.

His reputation has plummeted, and while he is angry, he can do nothing about it.

I can only feel resentment towards my brothers.

The most alarming piece of news was the news of the Northern Barbarian envoys' visit to the capital. The news of the Northern Barbarian envoys' visit to the capital had been circulating in the capital since a month ago.

As time went by, news continued to come from the outside world about the little prince Zagumu of the Northern Barbarians defeating the strong men from the Central Plains, every few days.

From the northern part of Youzhou to the heart of the Central Plains, the enemy has fought almost all the way. Anyone whose cultivation level does not exceed the Dharmakaya realm will be challenged by Zagumu, and this continues until now.

The name Zagumu is almost known to everyone.

Everyone knows that the little prince of the Northern Barbarians came to the capital with ill intentions.

In fact, there are powerful gods in the court. Some veteran masters are also very powerful. Among them, there are many who can fight across levels with hundreds of years of experience.

However, under the impetus of public opinion, Zagumu was portrayed as a young grandmaster. If the Central Plains court sent an old grandmaster, even if he won, he would not be glorious.

If you want to prove that the Central Plains is stronger than the Northern Barbarians, you also have to bring out opponents of the same level.

It may seem childish, but that is only for the real upper class. For the ordinary warriors and even the common people below, it is better to find a young genius of the same level to defeat Zagumu.

Significant.

That’s why Jiang Che came to Beijing.

As for Lu Jieyun, although he was also a top genius who was once listed on the martial arts list, in the eyes of the world, Jiang Che, the undisputed number one, is the real confidence.

Such an upcoming battle naturally attracted the attention of countless people. In the capital, it set off quite a stir.

In the thirteenth year of Yuankang of the Great Zhou Dynasty, on the second day of the first lunar month, there was a meeting of the great dynasty.

Jiang Che, dressed in the robes of a third-rank official, officially set foot in Fengtian Palace, the power center of the Central Plains Dynasty, for the first time.

In the capital city, all civil and military officials entered the hall one after another, while Jiang Che followed behind Chen Qingfang and entered the Fengtian Hall together with King Kaoshan.

Looking at the magnificent palace, Jiang Che could only say that it was worthy of being the center of the imperial court.

The ground is paved with magical jade and the pillars are made of magical wood.

There are carvings of dragons and paintings of phoenixes, and divine patterns everywhere.

It would be difficult for ordinary innate warriors to destroy anything in the Fengtian Hall even if they used all their strength, and the dragon throne above was even more majestic and covered in gold.

"You've been making quite a stir in the capital these past few days."

Chen Qingfang and Jiang Che were whispering to each other, with some teasing in their words.

Obviously, he was also aware of Jiang Che's current situation.

"I have no choice. When you are in the black office, trouble will come to you on your own."

Jiang Che shook his head, looking helpless.

"You were right not to attend the banquet. Ji Changsheng has high expectations but poor skills, and his ability to handle things is average. Unless something major happens, it will be difficult for him to have a chance to compete for the position of crown prince. There is no need to run around for him and be his wing."

Chen Qingfang continued.

Ever since he discovered the peerless genius Jiang Che, he was transferred to the central city of the capital by Ji Chengdao and served as the most powerful divine envoy in the Black Ya headquarters. His rank remained unchanged, but his power increased.

After all, the messenger of God at the headquarters must be much stronger than the messengers of God in other towns.

At the same time, as one of the most powerful men in Hei Ya, his information channels are also extremely powerful, covering the entire capital city, and he is always aware of the changes in the situation within the capital city.

That's why he advised Jiang Che before that with his status, there was no need for him to get involved in the fight for the throne.

"What the envoy said is true, but now Jiang has become a grudge against them mother and son."

"what happened?"

“Yesterday.”

Jiang Che briefly recounted what happened in Fenghe Palace. Of course, he omitted his arrogant side and instead portrayed himself as an innocent person.

"Don't worry, with the God King here, the Queen can't do anything to you."

Chen Qingfang curled the corners of his mouth.

But then his expression quickly turned gloomy again, only because Ji Chengdao in front of him glanced at him. Seeing this, Jiang Che immediately focused and calmed down, and said no more.

After a while.

The emperor went to court.

The shrill voice of the personal eunuch Li Chengzhong was heard throughout the Fengtian Hall. The pale and thin Emperor Yuankang slowly appeared from the side door.

Almost nothing has changed.

Jiang Che also paid homage to the emperor along with the civil and military officials.

"Your Majesty, please excuse me."

Emperor Yuankang's faint voice echoed.

Then, Li Chengzhong continued:
"When there is something to do, we will start to act, but when there is nothing to do, we will retreat."

Once the process started, officials began to submit various memorials as if they had been arranged. They were either about a severe drought in a certain place or about a rebellion by the Qingtian Sect somewhere.

Or maybe there was a fight between martial artists, and the aftermath destroyed an entire city.

Judging from this alone, it seemed as if the Great Zhou Dynasty had reached its end, but no matter which official it was, there was no sign of fear on their faces. Instead, it seemed as if they had expected it.

The emperor at the top began to issue imperial edicts one after another, while the officials around him all closed their eyes to rest, which made Jiang Che feel very bored. He felt that this grand court meeting was more like a formality.

He estimated that the center of power might not be in the Fengtian Hall at all, but somewhere else.

"Your Majesty, the envoys from the Northern Barbarians arrived in the capital yesterday and requested to meet Your Majesty. They are now waiting outside the Fengtian Palace." After most of the officials had reported.

Finally it was the turn of the officials from the Ministry of Rites.

"Xuan."

Emperor Yuan Kang slowly uttered a word.

Li Chengzhong on the side immediately echoed:
"Announce, foreign envoys, enter the palace."

"Announce that foreign envoys may enter the palace."

Voices rang out one after another, spreading from the Fengtian Hall to far away.

About half a minute later, a group of people stepped into the Fengtian Hall. Leading the group was the Minister of Rites, followed by three figures in strange costumes. Their appearance and attire were very different from those of the Central Plains warriors.

"Zhagumu, the fourth prince of the Golden Saint King Tingtian Khan, pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor of the Central Plains!"

"The Golden Saint King's Court offers sacrifices to Su Feng and pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor of the Central Plains!"

"Limuzhen, a general under the command of the Golden Saint King Tingtian Khan, pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor!"

The three of them placed their right fists on their chests and saluted the emperor above them.

The Golden Holy King's Court, as they call it, is the overlord entrenched in the northern part of the Central Plains. Just like the Great Zhou Dynasty unified the Central Plains, the Golden Holy King's Court is also the overlord of the entire grassland.

The Khans of all dynasties were honored as Heavenly Khan.

"No gift."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"The Northern Barbarian envoy has come to the Central Plains after a long journey. Why are you so eager to see me?"

"Zhagumu, in compliance with the order of Khan Tian, ​​hopes to resolve the conflict with His Majesty the Emperor of the Central Plains, stop the fighting, allow the Central Plains grasslands to trade with each other, and become a brotherly country."

As soon as these words were spoken, a huge wave was immediately set off in the Fengtian Hall.

Resolve conflicts and become brotherly nations?
Did they hear it correctly?
Looking at the war between the Central Plains and the grasslands, it has been burning for thousands of years and has never stopped. It is rare to resolve the conflict unless both sides are in very bad conditions.

But now it is obvious that the grassland occupies the upper hand. In the past hundred years, it has swallowed up thousands of miles of territory in the north of the Central Plains. How could there be a sudden ceasefire?
Emperor Yuankang's eyes moved slightly. Before this, he actually didn't know that the Northern Barbarian envoys came here to resolve the conflict. He just thought that it was according to the practice of previous years for each other to have envoys pay homage.

Once the war can be stopped, he can immediately devote most of his energy to eliminating some hidden dangers in the Central Plains. This will be extremely beneficial to the court.

Compared to the shock of the court officials, Ji Chengdao, who was resting with his eyes closed, seemed much calmer and said:

“Since we are a nation of brothers, who is the elder brother and who is the younger brother?”

Priest Su Feng glanced at Ji Chengdao. He had already heard of this divine king who was the backer of the Central Plains court. After a slight salute, he said:

"The Golden Saint Royal Court is stronger than the Central Plains Imperial Court, so the Royal Court should be the elder brother and the Central Plains Imperial Court should be the younger brother."
