Chapter 266: High Priest



Chapter 266: High Priest

When Huo Jin heard Li Mingce mention Liang Moyuan, he immediately became alert.

He turned to look at Li Mingce, his expression still calm: "If it weren't for my wife's careful care, even if Hua Tuo were reborn, I wouldn't be able to recover like this."

This is to tell Li Mingce that Liang Moyuan does not have medical skills, but just takes good care of him.

Hearing Huo Jinjian's answer, Li Mingce raised his eyebrows, smiled, patted Huo Jinjian's shoulder again, and turned around.

At this time, Wang Quanshan arrived.

"Your Majesty, please come to Longyun Hall to have a chat with the King of Zhenbei."

Longyun Hall is a place that only royal family members can use.

Whenever a member of the royal family returned from abroad, they would first have a chat over tea in the Longyun Hall.

As for the purpose, it depends on one's opinion.

Huo Jin saw that he needed to accompany Li Mingce to Longyun Hall first, and then go to Changsheng Hall to receive the three leaders' representatives on behalf of the emperor.

"Thank you for your trouble, Your Highness." Wang Quanshan stood at the gate of Yunlong Palace and saluted Huo Jin.

Huo Jin nodded and turned to leave when he suddenly felt someone's gaze.

It was very similar to the feeling he had felt when the gaze that was secretly observing him in the imperial kitchen gave him before.

Huo Jin paused and turned back without warning.

A pair of round eyes met his gaze.

Those were clear amber eyes, like a wild wolf on the grassland, revealing wildness and malice.

These eyes belong to a wheat-skinned boy.

He had short hair and wore a tiger-skin headband adorned with a tiger's eye stone.

Huo Jin narrowed his eyes when he saw this.

This is Wen Siyan, the attendant beside the Third Prince.

He picked up an abandoned baby, and after raising him, he turned the baby into a mad dog known to everyone around him.

His greatest characteristic is that he is not afraid of death. As long as it concerns the Third Prince, Wen Siyan acts like a madman.

Being targeted by him means being targeted by the Third Prince.

Seeing that he remained calm, Huo Jin withdrew his gaze and turned away.

Wen Siyan's gaze was fixed on Huo Jinjian's back until he disappeared from sight.

He curled the corners of his mouth.

This person is interesting.

Inside the Changsheng Palace, the palace maids were already making arrangements in an orderly manner.

There were soft string music, the faint scent of floral incense, and a fruit plate that was not too delicately carved.

In addition to the usual melon seeds, fruits and pastries, there are also special foods from three other ethnic groups.

Fried dough sticks, ginger and jujube tea, and berries.

After Huo Jin checked and confirmed that everything was correct, he heard a tinkling sound behind him and a strange fragrance entered his nostrils.

He is the high priest of the Xi tribe.

"High Priest." Huo Jin turned around and nodded at her.

Mingyueshan was wearing the characteristic clothing of their tribe.

A purple-black robe covered his entire body, and on his head he wore a bronze headdress that looked like bull horns, but more exaggerated and gorgeous.

The headdress is wrapped with a black cloth strip, on which are written the unique characters of the Hu people in dark red.

The strip of cloth hung down in front of her eyes, just blocking Mingyueshan's eyes, revealing only the lower half of her delicate face, with her lips painted with a slightly blackened red lip balm.

The whole person exudes a mysterious and charming feeling.

It was exactly the same as when Huo Jin first met her.

"How are you, Major General Huo? No, I should call you Prince or General now."

Mingyueshan stretched out her hand from under her robe. Her nails were also slender and dark red, and she was holding a black flower.

Mingyue Mountain used this flower to save Wei San's life back then.

When Huo Jin saw the flower named Black Feather, his eyes darkened.

Mingyue Mountain was reminding him that it was time to repay his kindness.

"High Priest, please take a seat first."

Seeing that he did not accept the flowers, Huo Jin instructed the palace maid beside her to find a glass vase and put the flowers in it for Mingyueshan.

Seeing that Huo Jin did not accept the flowers, Mingyueshan was not annoyed. He just showed an intriguing smile and slowly sat down.

Xingming Gyatso and Wanqi Ling also followed him into the Hall of Eternal Life.

They simply bowed and greeted Huo Jin politely, then took their seats and waited for the emperor and officials to arrive.

During this period, officials arrived one after another.

Huo Jin chatted casually with the three of them, only asking about the customs and practices of their respective ethnic groups.

Xingming Jiacuo and the others probably didn't expect that Huo Jinjian would know so much about their ethnic group.

No matter what they said, they could always connect with the conversation, and when it came to content related to their own nation, Huo Jinjian was quite insightful.

"The prince is different from others, I like him!" Xingming Gyatso raised his thumb and touched his beard.

He wore a tall hat, typical of the Bazaar ethnic group, wrapped with yellow cloth strips.

The strip of cloth was used to fix a human face skull.

This is the characteristic of their national belief. Seeing this, Huo Jin didn't say much and lowered his head to take a sip of tea.

At this time, Wang Quanshan's voice came.

"Your Majesty has arrived—"
