In fact, the special envoys who came in the past few days were not just from the Daqian Dynasty, but also from other dynasties. Xing Tian thought about it carefully and understood that this was the anniversary of Empress Linglong's accession to the throne, and it was also the celebration day of the Zhao Dynasty. , so naturally there will be envoys from other dynasties coming to congratulate
Xing Tian wanted to know about Linglong's political achievements, but he showed up and walked into a teahouse. The place was crowded with dragons and snakes, so it was naturally the best place to inquire about the news.
When the kid in the teahouse saw Xing Tian come in, his eyes immediately lit up. "The guys who work in this place are all shrewd people with very good eyelids. They are best at judging whether people are rich or poor, and whether they are powerful. They can tell at a glance whether a guy is a guy." Just when he saw Xing Tian slowly entering, he saw that this man was not old, but he had a good temperament, like an immortal who traveled everywhere, and his clothes were flowing, extremely clean, and did not cause a trace of dust, even for a young man who was used to seeing princes and nobles. Second, this is the first time I have seen a young man with such a temperament.
No need to ask, this must have an extraordinary origin, so it must not be offended
Immediately, the waiter came over and bowed to welcome the guests, allowing Xing Tian to reach an excellent position. He served tea and water, and served him very well. It can be said that he couldn't fault him at all.
And Xing Tian is also extremely generous in his actions. A warrior with the level of Xing Tian can be said to have no feeling for gold and silver. Youdao regards money as dung, that's what it means.
The waiter in the shop got a silver reward, and he knew that the person in front of him must be a big shot. After all, the last time a second-grade official came here, he didn't give as much reward as this one, so he naturally treated Xing Tian as a first-class guest.
Slowly, Xing Tian asked about the first female emperor in history. It was okay not to ask. When he asked about it, the waiter in the shop started talking non-stop.
"Objectively speaking, this is your first time to come to our Zhao Dynasty. Then you are really here at the right time. To say that our empress is really not easy. When she ascended the throne, many people were doubtful. After all, my grandfather's grandfather Counting my generation, there has been no such thing as a woman becoming emperor in this world. It is the first time in thousands of years that this is a strange thing. But let alone, the late emperor is really discerning. In the past year, our empress can be said to be We have worked hard to manage our Zhao Dynasty in an orderly manner, not to say it is unparalleled in prosperity, but the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and everyone lives and works in peace and contentment. For example, the business of our teahouse is also booming day by day. In short, our people are very grateful to Empress Linglong."
The waiter in the shop was talking and Xing Tian was listening. He was extremely relieved and felt a little distressed in his heart. As a woman, Linglong must have put in unimaginable hardships to do this.
After a while, Xing Tian brought the topic to the matter of envoys sent by many countries. As soon as he mentioned this, the waiter in the shop became angry. He looked around and whispered: "Objective, those guys from other dynasties have long been I wanted to see the laughing empress of our Zhao Dynasty when she came to the throne, but I didn’t see them sending people to celebrate. Now that our Zhao Dynasty is peaceful and the people are safe, and we are rich, they come to show their courtesy, what the hell, bah!"
Seeing the look on the waiter's face, Xing Tian couldn't help but laugh.
The waiter continued: "Sir, why are you laughing? Could it be that what I said is wrong? Although we are engaged in the job of serving people, our eyes and ears are better than others. I knew that half a year ago, the neighboring Tuyin country Suddenly sending troops to invade our country's border was to bully the new emperor who had just ascended the throne and whose foundation was not stable. He wanted to invade our country's territory. As a result, the empress sent Lord Zhao Tingyu to stop the enemy. How could the people of the Tuyin Kingdom be the opponent of our soldiers of the Zhao Dynasty? As a result, he was defeated by Master Zhao Tingyu, and even pursued them into the empire, occupying three states and six counties. This is because our empress is kind-hearted and does not want to cause more killings, so she did not order General Zhao to continue the pursuit, otherwise it would be so huge We can capture every Tuyin country!"
What the waiter said was that he was beaming and spitting, but Xing Tian understood the key point.
When a new emperor ascends the throne, and she is a woman, it will naturally attract the prying eyes of ambitious people who want to take advantage. Linglong is well aware of the stakes. Her first battle after ascending the throne is to show off her prestige, otherwise there will be constant troubles in the future.
Moreover, Xingtian's calculations were extraordinary. He immediately knew that many countries had sent envoys this time. Firstly, they were celebrating Linglong's one year on the throne. Secondly, they were probably here for the occupied territory of the Tuyin Kingdom.
He already understood in his heart that Xing Tian just didn't intend to stay in this teahouse any longer, but at this moment, he heard a cold snort coming from outside the teahouse.
"Young man, you dare to speak nonsense about national affairs here. You are so bold!" Following this powerful voice, a sound of scraping iron armor was heard, and then a man wearing silver walked in from the outer door.
A's young general is also a jade tree facing the wind, and is indescribably handsome.
Even the young man's guards were all brightly armored and full of energy. They stood there like a murderous god that could rise up at any time, with unparalleled power.
As soon as the diners in the store saw the visitor, they all stood up and saluted, and they all recognized the person. When the waiter saw it, he immediately shrank his head and knelt on the ground, saying repeatedly: "I didn't know that General Zhao was nearby, and he was talking nonsense just now."
, please forgive me, General Zhao!"
This person is none other than Zhao Tingyu, the young general who is now at the height of his power in the Zhao Dynasty.
In the Great Zhao Dynasty, everyone did not know the power of General Zhao. Not only did he have divine help in fighting and command wisely, but his martial arts skills were also extremely high. He could be said to be the most popular figure today.
Everyone in the Zhao Dynasty knows that General Zhao admires him very much and is full of respect. Even the 80-year-old man has a look of admiration on his face.
Just for a moment, because of the arrival of Zhao Tingyu, the whole teahouse fell to their knees, but only the customer on the table next to the waiter sat still and drank tea calmly.
According to the laws of the Great Zhao Dynasty, people are required to kneel down and worship when they meet an official. Even those who are holding imperial examinations must also bow. This kind of neglect to sit still is already a violation of the law.
Immediately, a mighty soldier behind Zhao Tingyu stepped forward and said angrily to the guest: "How dare you, General Zhao is here, why don't you be polite?"
After saying that, I will step forward
But he didn't notice it at all. Zhao Tingyu glanced at the man, but he felt like he was struck by lightning. He was stunned at first, and then showed a look of ecstasy.
A sharp-eyed soldier was immediately horrified when he saw this. General Zhao was always a serious and mighty general with a solemn expression, whether in court or in the army. He had never seen Zhao Tingyu with such an expression.
The next moment, Zhao Tingyu's behavior made everyone dumbfounded and horrified.
Then Zhao Tingyu stepped forward and pulled the soldier out. He glared at him fiercely, then lifted up his robe and belt, walked a few steps quickly, arrived in front of the man, knelt down directly, and saluted him.
Since ancient times, people have knelt down and paid homage to each other. It is only done between monarchs and ministers, fathers and sons, masters and disciples. Naturally, this change made everyone unable to recover and were stunned on the spot.
As for the waiter at the shop, he was even more confused. He couldn't figure out what happened and why General Zhao Tingyu paid such a big courtesy to this guest.
But the next words answered the doubts and fears in their hearts.
"Disciple Zhao Tingyu, I have met my mentor!" A shout of respect resounded throughout the teahouse.
Xing Tian is still sitting firmly at this moment. With his many experiences, his cultivation, and his understanding of martial arts, he can definitely withstand this worship.
Besides, Zhao Tingyu is Xingtian’s disciple, so this worship is reasonable and reasonable.
Xing Tian put down the teacup and nodded. Zhao Tingyu's current cultivation level has not improved much. He is still at the Dzogchen Realm of Hardness and Softness, and at most is half-step to the Aperture Realm. Apparently Zhao Tingyu has been busy with government affairs this year and has neglected his cultivation.
Xing Tian knows this very well. The journey of martial arts is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. Zhao Tingyu has already wasted a lot of time. If he doesn't catch up quickly, his future cultivation will not be that high.
As a master, Xing Tian naturally wanted to help, and there were many people here, and it was not a place to talk. Xing Tian waved his hand, and two rays of light suddenly flashed, and Zhao Tingyu and him disappeared from everyone's eyes.
"Master, you..." Xing Tian's move naturally shocked Zhao Tingyu. With Zhao Tingyu's knowledge, it was already extraordinary to know the Earthly Immortal Realm. Naturally, he didn't know that there are many magical powers in the Qiankun Realm in this world.
Xing Tian briefly recounted his experiences over the past year. Zhao Tingyu listened with fascination. He only hated that he was in an official position and had many things he couldn't control. However, Xing Tian quickly passed on to him many secrets of magic skills and even some top-level elixirs. Zhao Tingyu only
You need to practice hard, and your cultivation will improve immediately
After the two talked about old times, the topic naturally turned to Linglong.
Speaking of Linglong, Zhao Tingyu was also full of admiration. He only said that Linglong was indeed the material to be the emperor. He managed all kinds of things in an orderly manner within one year. The Zhao Dynasty was prosperous and much stronger than before.
Especially the counterattack half a year ago showed the majesty of the Zhao Dynasty. Not only did it repel the invasion of the Tuyin Kingdom, but it also occupied a lot of the opponent's territory.
"Master, Your Majesty, she has worked hard for a year and doesn't do much else, but she misses you very much. I heard that she sometimes looks at the moon in the middle of the night and sheds tears on her clothes!"
Hearing Zhao Tingyu's words, Xing Tian also felt sad, but after all, he had a high level of cultivation, so he suppressed his thoughts for a moment. Now that he has come back, he can say that he can see Linglong at any time, but he is not in a hurry. Now, Xing Tian is back.
I just want to protect Linglong from the wind and rain and solve some troubles.
And soon, Zhao Tingyu revealed a big trouble at the moment.
"In the past few days, various countries have sent envoys, saying they are congratulations, but in fact they are all for the territory of the Tuyin Kingdom. They want to get some benefits from it, or let us return the occupied territory unconditionally. No matter what, they are interested in our country, the Great Zhao
The dynasty is not a good thing. I have received information that they even plan to jointly exert pressure to suppress us. No matter we choose to give up the benefits or return the territory, the majesty of the new emperor will be greatly weakened." (To be continued
