Chapter 332: Show More, Get More
Qin Fu and his group were far away and had already left the city.
In other words, although they saw the unusual movement in the sky and guessed that the trip to Southern Xinjiang would not go smoothly, they did not expect that the Southern Xinjiang sorcerer would disappear so quickly and silently.
So when they learned that the Southern Xinjiang witch was defeated in a second, Qin Fu almost spit out a mouthful of hot tea and kept coughing.
The dark-eyed conspirator swore, "What the hell is this! I took so much trouble to get them in, but it was all in vain. Are they just going to leave like this?"
The person who came to report the situation bowed and said, "According to the Southern Xinjiang witch, I don't know what method the young imperial teacher used to arouse the inappropriate mating period of these insects, causing them to go crazy and kill each other. Without the insects on their bodies, they can only leave first."
The dark-eyed strategist's eyes widened: "What?! The insects were all killed before they were even released?! Didn't they even manage to attract the attention of the Jinyiwei and the secret guards of the Great Xia for the Chu State? This is too... bad!"
Today's series of miracles, as well as the Southern Frontier Witch Master's failure this time, have made the radical Dark Circles conspirator hesitate.
He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Qin Fu, and whispered: "Master. I also think what you said before is right. Preserving strength is more important than blindly dying. How about retreating first?"
Qin Fu took a sip of tea and suppressed his emotions: "No hurry. Chu still has a backup plan. This time, Chu is not targeting the Xia State's national teacher, but the political and military forces behind the crown prince and Wu Yi. They have already made preparations for the sacrificial ceremony later. If everything goes well, they will probably create a gap between the crown prince, the third prince and General Wu Yi. So we can wait and see."
After Qin Fu finished speaking, he found that his strategist had a look of shock, confusion and self-mockery on his face again.
After thinking about it, Qin Fu suddenly realized what the conspiracy scholar was concerned about.
Qin Fu coughed lightly, "It's not that I don't trust you, it's just that on the one hand, Daxia's intelligence system is too powerful, on the other hand, Chu asked me to keep it secret, and on the other hand, I am too cautious in my dealings with others..."
"Master, there is no need to explain. It is my fault." The dark-eyed strategist took a deep breath and gathered himself. "Now, is there anything else I can do?"
Qin Fu said: "Just wait for good news."
The dark-eyed strategist was startled, and he just hummed honestly and asked nothing.
…
At the same time, Yuan Ruan was walking down the ladder with light yet somewhat nervous steps.
Although pulling the clouds is a bit tiring, and seeing the common people kneeling and kowtowing below is a bit embarrassing.
But she still persevered and completed the blessing mission successfully.
However, as she walked, Yuan Ruan felt as if someone was staring at her. She turned her head sharply, but did not see anyone staring at her. After walking for a while, she looked to the side again, but still did not see anyone staring at her.
Yuanruan touched the goosebumps on his arm: [Strange. Tonger, do you feel something is wrong? ]
System: [What? No, there was no assassination...]
Yuan Ruan: [No, no, no, it's just the feeling of being stared at.]
The system said as if it was a matter of course: [Yes. People have always been paying attention to Ah Ruan. Isn't this natural? Ah Ruan is a treasure, and should always be treated as a treasure and paid attention to.]
Seeing the system's firm tone, Yuan Ruan thought it was not dangerous and stopped asking questions on this topic.
This also made the court officials nearby who could hear the thoughts breathe a sigh of relief. Many of them blamed each other for not being good enough at concealing the truth and almost frightened the young imperial master.
At this time, officials from the Ministry of Rites and the Qintianjian carried the offerings for the heaven over together.
There are large sacrificial animals such as pigs, cows, and horses, as well as many exquisite prepared meat dishes, vegetarian dishes, and cakes, as well as many glittering jewelry, gold and silver ornaments and other fine items.
The prince took a big step up the ladder.
The real Wu Yi also changed his clothes, and walked over with a dagger in one hand and a huge wine jar that smelled of alcohol in the other.
System: [Wow! The male mother is here, so cool!]
Yuanruan: [Yeah, but what is this for? ]
System: [It seems that the sacrificial process today is a little different. In the past, the sacrificial animals such as cattle and sheep were killed and thrown into the fire pit along with those exquisite dishes and jewelry to burn for a day and a night as a sacrifice to the gods.]
Yuan Ruan's pupils trembled: [What?! Those gold, silver, jewelry and jade have to be burned too, it hurts! Why not just give them to me directly!]
The official from the Ministry of Rites who was about to throw the jewels in was startled: after hearing what Xia Guoyun said, he was a little afraid to throw them in.
The official of the Ministry of Rites looked at the colleague who threw the dishes for help, only to see the man swiftly throw the dishes away and run away. The official of the Ministry of Rites cursed him inwardly for being disloyal, and then looked at the Minister of Rites for help.
The Minister of Rites is a little helpless, but he can also understand his subordinates. After all, everyone has just enjoyed the miracle, and now they just want to support the little Imperial Master. Even he doesn't want to displease the Imperial Master, he just wants to accomplish the little Imperial Master's mission in a clever way. Wish.
The emperor thought for a moment, then he looked at the prince.
Prince: ...
He really wanted to complain to his father, asking him not to focus on his son! The third prince had grown up and could do something.
Thinking of this, the prince turned his head and looked at the third prince.
The third prince gave a confused look with an expressionless face.
Prince: ...
The prince, who was very responsible, finally decided to take on everything himself.
He thought for a moment, then stepped forward and said to the official of the Ministry of Rites, "The Great Xia Imperial Master has just displayed such great power and miracles, which is enough to prove that the Great Xia Imperial Master is a heaven... a human being who can communicate with the gods. The Imperial Master should enjoy the delicacies and luxuries offered by the human world on behalf of the gods. In the future, all the offerings that the Imperial Master can use should not be burned. After lighting incense to offer sacrifices to the heavens, all should be sent to the Imperial Master's residence."
The official from the Ministry of Rites was stunned. This reason was far-fetched but did make sense.
He quickly looked at his chief officer, and seeing that he had no objection, he retreated quickly.
Yuan Ruan's eyes lit up: [Haha, it seems that the miracle I just displayed was quite good! As expected, people cannot be low-key, and cannot walk at night in gorgeous clothes. They must show their own value! If you show your value, you can get more. ]
System: [Hehehe, Ah Ruan is right. By the way, a red melon suddenly appeared on Wu Yi's body, and it was flashing. Do you want to eat it? ]
Yuan Ruan immediately perked up: [Chuck, chuck, chuck. Didn't you say before that the male mother and the others suspected a conspiracy, so they used a substitute and waited for the person behind the scenes to show up? Maybe he should be here.]
Wu Yi was stunned. He was just picking up the tightly tied ox with one hand. With his left hand, he swung the knife and stabbed it directly into the ox's neck. Blood flowed into the wine jar.
The emperor and his entourage turned their attention to Yuan Ruan.
System: [Okay. It's like this. Ever since Chen State offered three cities, the old emperor of Chu State guessed that your brother was playing the trick of "openly repairing the road to Chencang and secretly attacking Chencang". The old emperor of Chu State was furious and gave a death order to the fourth prince of Chu State, asking him to teach Daxia a lesson. The fourth prince of Chu State decided to "treat others in their own way."]
Many court officials looked at the Minister of Rites.
The officials of the Ministry of Rites who were in charge of receiving the Chu State began to wonder whether the members of the Chu State delegation had done anything inappropriate recently.
Yuanruan: [What should we do? Are they also following my brother's example and preparing to set off smoke bombs?]
