"Have you seen the envoy from Nanzhao? What does he look like?" Xie Yao asked.
"Mother, although that person is an envoy of the Nanzhao Kingdom, due to his humble position, he should be from Miao Jiang." Wu Feng's face darkened when he talked about Miao Jiang.
"Miaojiang?" Xie Yao felt that the place name was vaguely familiar. After thinking about it for a moment, her eyes suddenly lit up.
Isn't Miaojiang the place that is good at refining Gu?
The first few Gu refiners she and Chu Han met were from Miao Jiang.
Later, as Yan Jun, she lied to Hong Ye that the master who taught her medical skills was from Miao.
She had also seen those Miao Gu refiners, but she didn't think they were very dangerous. Was it worth Xie Wenwu's insistence on leading troops to protect them?
Wu Feng then briefly explained the situation in Miao territory.
Miao territory is almost equivalent to a small country and is completely autonomous.
Although it belonged to the Nanzhao Kingdom, the emperor of the Nanzhao Kingdom had no right to directly manage the Miao territory. Even if the Miao people left the Miao territory and wanted to be exempted from the jurisdiction of the Nanzhao Kingdom's laws, the officials of the Nanzhao Kingdom would turn a blind eye.
Close one eye.
Within the Miao Territory, there is also a person with the highest status who manages the entire Miao Territory, called the Miao Emperor. The Miao Emperor's sons are called princes, but there is no ordering, they are all called princes, it is just a unified title.
In addition to Emperor Miao, the following are the three people with the strongest Gu refining ability, namely Heaven, Earth, Human, and the three high priests.
Under the high priest, there are many detailed branches that are used to manage major and minor affairs in the Miao territory.
In other words, there were four people with the greatest power in the entire Miao territory, and the Miao Emperor was the center of all power.
"This envoy from Nanzhao is most likely one of the three high priests." Wu Feng slowly expressed his guess, "The high priest is good at using poison. General Xie must have thought of this too.
, that’s why I personally led the troops to protect it.”
When Xie Yao heard about Gu poison, she couldn't sit still.
The poison is really powerful. Even if Xie Wenwu led a heavy army to protect Chu Han, he was still not sure that he could completely resist the poison.
Speaking of poison, no one in the entire palace is better suited to deal with poison than her.
"Empress, you don't have to go there. The emperor specifically told me that I can tell you the news, but you must stay in Fengyi Palace. The emperor said that a mere envoy can't do anything to him." Seeing this, Wu Feng quickly stopped him sideways.
.
When Xie Yao heard that Chu Han was prepared, she felt relieved and sat back.
However, he was still thinking about the situation in Jinluan Palace, "Wufeng, you don't have to stay here. You can go to Jinluan Palace and bring back the situation there and tell me."
Wu Feng didn't move, "Mother..."
"Don't worry about me. I won't go there. I'm just waiting for you in Fengyi Palace to bring back the news." Xie Yao knew her situation and had no intention of showing off.
"Okay, I'll be over here now." Wu Feng immediately got up and rushed to the Jinluan Palace.
At the same time, Jinluan Palace.
"Hahaha!" A burst of wild laughter sounded. A man nearly two meters tall, shirtless and with dark skin had an arrogant face and his eyes were scanning the surroundings without any hesitation.
The beard on his face showed a strange red color, his eyes were extremely energetic, his temples were bulging, and his voice was like a bell.
"I thought the Wanqi Congress, which had defeated three kingdoms in succession, was so powerful. I didn't expect to see just me as an envoy, looking like a formidable enemy. It was really disappointing." Snake Jie, a Miao man, looked at him with contempt.
His arrogant look did not take the people around him into consideration at all.
Behind Snake Jie, there were eight similarly dressed men standing, all shirtless. However, their aura was obviously weaker than that of Snake Jie, but they also had contemptuous eyes.
Chu Han's eyes were cold and he was sitting on the dragon chair, looking very threatening.
"Bold snake hero! You don't even kneel down when you see the emperor!" Xie Wenwu shouted sharply, and a chill spread all over his body.
On the battlefield, he not only saw the Miao people, but also defeated the Miao people to a pulp.
"Xie Wenwu!" Snake Jie glared and called out Xie Wenwu's name with a murderous look in his eyes, "You killed my brother back then! Now that I meet you here, I want to avenge my brother!"
"Ha!" he shouted angrily.
The momentum of the eight people behind them changed, and they all reached into the jar at their waists. When they took it out, they all had Gu worms in their hands, and they threw them in the direction of Xie Wenwu.
The next moment, there was a buzzing sound in the Jinluan Palace, and it turned out to be flying Gu insects!
Xie Wenwu recognized him at a glance, his expression changed, and he immediately ordered his men to fight back.
He knew the weakness of this flying Gu insect, but his subordinates didn't know it.
Soon, all the flying Gu insects were killed, but Xie Wenwu's men also lost nearly ten people, and they died in the Jinluan Palace!
When Snake Jie saw this scene, not only was he not worried at all, but he laughed wildly again, "Wanqi Country is nothing more than that! It's just a few bugs in exchange for a few of your lives!"
"If all the Gu worms emerge from my Miao territory, what will your Wanqi country do? Hahaha!"
Xie Wenwu's face became colder and colder, his body suddenly became full of murderous intent, and he was about to fly over.
"Wenwu." Chu Han called in a low voice and gave Xie Wenwu a calm look.
When Xie Wenwu saw this, he took back his steps.
Not only because Chu Han was the emperor, but also because of the little look in Chu Han's eyes that made the temperature of his heart drop suddenly.
Chu Han was angry.
"The Gu insects in Miao territory are indeed extraordinary. It is indeed a good deal to exchange the lives of insects for human lives." Chu Han spoke, his voice was calm and calm, and there was no hint of emotion or anger, just plain.
Snake Jie glanced at Chu Han doubtfully, and saw that Chu Han showed no anger after he finished speaking. He narrowed his eyes for a moment, and then sneered, "As expected of the emperor of Wanqi Kingdom, he has a keen eye for gold. I, the Gu insect of Miao territory,
The power is naturally extraordinary."
"If we had not learned from our ancestors that Gu insects could not be taken away from Miao territory in large numbers, I am afraid that there would not be so many countries in the world."
The implication is that one Miao territory is enough to unify the mainland.
The emotion on Chu Han's face was still unclear, "I also heard that Gu insects are afraid of fire. I don't know if this is true."
Snake Jie's face darkened, "Emperor Wanqi Kingdom, what do you mean by this?"
He saw a hint of danger on Chu Han's face, and one hand slowly dropped to the jar on his waist, his eyes alert.
"It's not interesting. It's just that hearing is false and seeing is believing. I have always wanted to confirm whether Gu insects are really afraid of fire. Since several envoys carry Gu insects with them, it would be great." Chu Hanyu
He spoke slowly, and suddenly raised the corners of his lips, bringing out a gentle smile.
"Come here! Let me see if the Gu insects in Miao territory are really afraid of fire!"
A word of command, a swish sound!
Two rows of archers appeared on both sides of the Golden Palace, as well as two rows of flaming arrows!
