Fellow Daoist, your script is really good.

At this moment, everyone was surprised to discover...

Good heavens! The position of Grand Preceptor of Qi Kingdom is still vacant?!

Speaking of which, who was the Grand Preceptor of the State of Qi again?!

Su Li!

Who is Su Li again?

Gradually, the details of the early life of the Empress of Qi were largely unearthed.

Su Li was the cultivator who helped the Empress of Qi escape during the internal strife in Cangqiong Kingdom!

One tells ten, ten tell a hundred, a hundred tell a thousand!

Moreover, the story is extremely colorful.

So the more it's spread, the more exaggerated it becomes!

Later on, everyone basically reached a consensus.

That is, the Empress of Qi did not actually not want to find a husband, but rather that she already had someone she liked!

This person is none other than the Imperial Advisor, Su Li!

Then all sorts of versions came out.

such as.

Version 1: Her Majesty the Empress and the Imperial Advisor Su Li had a pact to stay together. If, thirty years from now, you conquer all nations and I ascend to the Great Dao, and neither of us is married, then we will be together! So Her Majesty the Empress has been waiting.

Version Two: Her Majesty the Empress loved Su Li, but Su Li was devoted to the Dao. In the end, Her Majesty the Empress could not persuade him to stay, and Su Li left. However, Her Majesty the Empress still kept the position of Imperial Preceptor, waiting for Su Li to return.

Version 3: Her Majesty the Empress has her own career, and Su Li has his own path. Although they love each other, they decide to support each other's careers, so they let go. Her Majesty the Empress said, "This position is reserved for you, as if you have always been by my side."

There are many versions.

The ladies of Qi were very fond of it, as were the scholars and soldiers.

Furthermore, the royal family of Qi has never denied it, and even seemed to tacitly agree with it, so it is basically a settled matter.

Regardless of the version.

The Empress of Qi and Su Li are already considered an official couple.

Many people are waiting for Su Li to return...

Especially when the news of Su Li's single sword strike that killed Tian Xuanzi reached the Qi Kingdom, the people of Qi Kingdom felt proud!

Look!

This is His Majesty's beloved!

She is our "Empress" of Qi Kingdom!

That's just how awesome it is!

For the people of Qi, Su Li was practically one of their own.

Not to mention that His Majesty's elder brother is Su Li's brother!

Wouldn't this be a double blessing for the already close relatives?

Su Li is a citizen of Qi even though she is not from Qi!

Oh, Su Li is indeed from Qi Kingdom.

Because the desolate kingdom where Su Li was born had already been annexed by the Qi kingdom...

but!

When the second piece of news about Su Li came, the people of Qi Kingdom were in an uproar!

"Su Li colluded with the witch of the Black Demon Sect to murder his fellow righteous people. Three months later, he will be beheaded at Thunder Cliff!"

Upon seeing this news, the people of Qi Kingdom expressed disbelief!

How could our "Empress" possibly collude with the witch of the Dark Demon Sect?!

Imperial Preceptor Su Li is devoted to Her Majesty the Empress!

It was definitely because Grand Preceptor Su Li touched upon the interests of these sects!

Moreover.

How can the Black Demon Sect be considered a demonic sect?

It seems that the Black Demon Sect doesn't have any bad rumors circulating in the mortal world.

On the contrary, the cultivators of the Black Demon Sect are very polite to people from the mortal world! They even have a somewhat good reputation!

On the contrary, many so-called prestigious and upright families are arrogant and do not take ordinary people seriously!

Whether something is right or wrong, people's hearts know for themselves!

"The savior of the nation!"

"Save the prince consort!"

"The savior of the nation!"

"Save the prince consort!"

Soon, within the territory of Qi Kingdom, the people spontaneously raised their slogans!

Su Li couldn't believe she had attracted such a huge commotion, even though she hadn't done anything...

However, over the years, Su Li has been glorified. Even though Su Li has not done anything, he already holds a very high position in the hearts of the people of Qi!

She was essentially no different from an "Empress"!

Moreover.

If Grand Preceptor Su Li hadn't saved Her Majesty the Empress back then, would Her Majesty have ascended the throne? Would I be living such a good life now?!

Amidst the cries of the people, the court of Qi Kingdom fell into a solemn atmosphere.

"The Xiangwei Sect and the other ten sects have gone too far! They can kill our Qi Kingdom's Grand Preceptor at will?! Where does this place our Qi Kingdom?!"

General Du Yan, the Grand General Who Protects the Nation, stepped forward to offer his advice.

"Your Majesty! This humble general is willing to lead 100,000 troops to seize the execution ground and protect the Imperial Preceptor!"

“General Zhenguo, please calm down. National Preceptor Su is the next Holy Master of Qianling Holy Land. Now that Xiangwei Sect is acting like this, where does that leave Qianling Holy Land? How could they have such audacity? There must be something fishy going on here.”

The Grand Secretary stroked his beard.

"Heh! Strange?! Perhaps the Grand Secretary is just trying to embolden others? The martial cultivators of Qi Kingdom crush everything! Even if there is something fishy going on, Qi Kingdom can still crush it!"

The General Who Conquers the North also stepped forward.

"This humble general requests to fight!"

"A bunch of brutes! The other side is so audacious! There must be a trap! Have you all lost your minds on the battlefield?!"

The Imperial Censor was furious.

"It's better than you cowards hiding in the back! This humble general requests to fight!" The Minister of War stepped forward!

"This humble general requests to fight!"

"This humble general requests to fight!"

In the imperial court, all the military officers knelt on one knee, requesting a battle!

With the current size of the Qi Kingdom, it wouldn't be afraid to go to war with the Qianling Holy Land! Not to mention those ten small sects!

The Qi Kingdom is currently enjoying a period of great military prosperity! In their hearts, the word "defeat" simply doesn't exist!

But the civil officials were furious.

These brutes!

Does this mean we won't fight?

This needs to be considered carefully!

You guys are going to the battlefield, are we supposed to just sit around doing nothing?!

Without us in the rear to handle all sorts of things for you, to smooth things over, to gather intelligence and information, and to integrate plans, can you fight with peace of mind?

Your butts have already been stolen!

"Stop arguing!"

Just as the civil and military officials in the court were about to fight, the Empress of Qi, who was sitting high on the throne, spoke.

Xia Liuliu's voice wasn't loud, but it carried an imposing presence without anger, and everyone returned to their original positions, behaving with utmost respect.

"This is the imperial court, not a martial arts arena! If you want to have a martial arts contest, go back there! What kind of behavior is this?"

Xia Liuliu reprimanded, and no one dared to utter a sound.

"I have already made a decision on this matter!"

Xia Liuliu looked at the Prime Minister.

"Prime Minister Fang, during my absence, you and the cabinet should govern the country well and implement the national policies."

"Your Majesty, what is this?"

Prime Minister Fang's heart skipped a beat; he suddenly sensed something was wrong.

Xia Liuliu stood up, put her hands behind her back, and looked into the distance with her charming eyes:

"This is my imperial advisor!"

They killed my imperial advisor; that's a slap in my face!

"I will personally lead the army!"

Chapter 629 What's going on?

"Father...you must stand up for your daughter, Father..."

When the news of Su Li's impending execution spread to the Qianling Holy Land, Ao Xiaoxiao packed her bags and immediately headed to the West Sea Dragon Palace.

Ao Xiaoxiao knew at the time that relying solely on the Qianling Holy Land was not very reliable, and she would have to use the power of the West Sea Dragon Palace.

Moreover, if Ao Xiaoxiao were to wait for news in the Qianling Holy Land and just look at it, she would feel very uncomfortable and even a little anxious.

Therefore, Ao Xiaoxiao wanted to take the initiative to do something to increase the chances of protecting Su Li.

"Daughter, what's wrong, daughter? Oh, you look so haggard."

Hearing his daughter's cries, the Dragon King of the West Sea, who was in the clam maiden's room, pulled up his pants and came out.

When the Dragon King of the West Sea saw his daughter, he was heartbroken.

The Dragon King of the West Sea had never seen his daughter look so haggard.

Even the Dragon King of the West Sea thought that his daughter looked much more haggard than when she left.

For an elderly father, seeing his daughter grow increasingly haggard is undoubtedly the most heartbreaking thing.

How could she not look haggard?

In order to get back to the West Sea Dragon Palace, Ao Xiaoxiao kept riding the clouds in her original form without stopping for a moment.

"Father... *sobs*"

When Ao Xiaoxiao saw her father, all the grievances she had suffered suddenly burst forth.

"Daughter, tell me, it's alright, it's alright. My dear daughter, if there's anything wrong, just tell your father, and your father will definitely stand up for you!"

"Father, someone... someone is bullying your daughter."

"Who! How dare they! Could it be Su Li?!"

hateful!

So what if he is Long Yueqing's disciple?!

Do you think I'm afraid?

Everyone who bullies my daughter must die!
