When Bai Haoge heard the words of the ruler of Daluo, his face darkened and he stepped forward quickly: "How dare you, the ruler of a small country, be so rude to the owner of this shop?!"
Although he appeared to be shouting angrily, he was actually secretly delighted inside.
He happened to come across this opportunity to show off, and there was no one else in the lobby. It was really rare.
At this time, immediately after Bai Haoge and the other two, another group of people walked in from outside the store.
They were the ones who were chasing after the King of Daluo Kingdom.
As soon as they came in and saw the appearance of the store, they couldn't help but feel restrained and didn't dare to make a sound.
Two of them happened to have seen Emperor Yan and others before. After recognizing their true identities, they became silent and broke out in cold sweat.
Daluo Kingdom is one of the Western countries with a superior environment and strong national strength.
Their king is the only son of the previous king. He grew up in a honey pot, getting whatever he wants. He has never suffered any grievances since childhood and always feels that everything revolves around him.
Who knew that in front of Dayan, Daluo Kingdom was actually completely vulnerable.
"The ruler of a small country?! You! How dare you, a young boy, humiliate me like this?!" The ruler of Daluo glared at Bai Haoge fiercely.
"Your Majesty, be careful with your words! This is..."
The King of Daluo glared at his subordinates who were speaking: "Shut up! Why are you butting in while I'm talking?"
Emperor Yan ignored the ruler of Daluo State and stepped forward to bow to Feng Yuanning. "Shopkeeper, thank you for taking care of my son during this period. Not only did you treat his illness, but you also taught him immortal arts..."
Since it was already night, he was wearing casual clothes, making it impossible to tell his identity.
"Immortal magic?! Can I be taught immortal magic?" The King of Daluo Kingdom interrupted Emperor Yan and opened his eyes wide in surprise.
He looked at Bai Haoge critically. How could this kid receive magic from the immortals?
He is the king of Daluo Kingdom. Even after being invited here by the gods, he has not yet had such an opportunity.
Wait, the owner?
Feng Yuanning glanced at the ruler of Daluo State and ruthlessly poured a bucket of cold water on him: "Since you are the ruler of a country, you are obviously not suitable for cultivating immortality. Don't think too much."
Once the mind is diverted to cultivation, it will obviously be difficult for the king to take care of state affairs. This is tantamount to a terrible man-made disaster for the people.
What's more, it's hard to describe this king. It's obvious that there's something wrong with his brain. Who knows what weird things he will do?
The Lord of Daluo immediately forgot his previous doubts and opened his eyes wide: "Nonsense, you are lying!"
Feng Yuanning rolled his eyes.
The Lord of Daluo glared at him, "You must be deliberately seeking revenge against me! I am the Lord of Daluo, a distinguished guest specially invited by your master. How can you neglect me?"
Feng Yuanning rolled his eyes again.
Was she the kind of person who would take revenge on others? She simply felt that the ruler was unworthy of his position and didn't want his people to suffer such a great crime in vain.
Bai Haoge sneered and glanced at the ruler of Daluo. "How can you be so arrogant? The owner is of such status that I wouldn't argue with you. It seems you don't understand the situation. This is the Xianyuan Hotel. The owner is the master here. How can you, the ruler of a small country, deserve to be invited by the owner personally?"
The ruler of Daluo was enraged once again, glaring at him fiercely. "Ruler of a small country?! You're the one who's talking nonsense. I was hunting at night when I saw a beam of light suddenly appear. This must be a personal invitation from the immortals! You're such a frog in the well..."
"A frog in a well?" Bai Haoge tilted his head slightly, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "I am King Chen of Dayan, and the man next to me is my father, His Majesty the current Emperor of Dayan."
At this moment, there was no one else in the hotel lobby except the owner, and the owner knew everything, so he naturally knew his identity a long time ago.
Everything happened just as he had expected, and Feng Yuanning did not show any surprise.
The King of Daluo Kingdom looked slightly disappointed, and then he put his hands on his hips and said, "How do I know what you said..."
"Your Majesty! I have served as an envoy to Great Yan. I testify that they are none other than His Majesty the Emperor of Great Yan and His Majesty's eldest son, Prince Chen."
The King of Daluo suddenly changed his expression.
Of course, no one in the Western countries can be compared with him.
Although he had never personally visited the Central Plains, he had a vague understanding of the power of the dynasties. He felt that if Daluo faced the powerful Yan, even if it won, it would be a pyrrhic victory, which would be quite troublesome.
Of course, this is not the most important thing. What is important is that the Emperor of Dayan actually respects the girl behind the counter so much.
The King of Daluo finally reacted and recalled that before he came here, he seemed to have seen the words "Xianyuan Hotel" on the high-rise building.
Could it be that the girl behind the counter is really the owner of this place?
But he had just been so rude to her.
As the King of Daluo was thinking about it, he felt as if he had been struck by a bolt from the blue. His eyes went dark and he felt heartbroken.
Emperor Yan paid no attention to the ruler. He was more concerned with another question at the moment. He asked Feng Yuanning with a serious expression, "Shopkeeper, is it true that the ruler of a country cannot cultivate immortality?"
"System, can the ruler of a country cultivate immortality?" In fact, Feng Yuanning couldn't be sure of the answer to whether the ruler of a country could cultivate immortality. She just felt that it was very inappropriate, so she could only ask the system first.
The system replied: "No, the ruler carries the fate of the nation and is burdened by the surging public opinion. He cannot cultivate while in office."
Feng Yuanning secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that he couldn't practice Taoism. Those citizens were so innocent. How could the king abandon his citizens to practice Taoism?
"No." She repeated the system's words to everyone.
Bai Haoge breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you for letting me know, owner."
He secretly rejoiced in his heart. With the shop owner's words, what reason did his father have to appoint him as the heir? He could finally stay in the shop and continue to practice with justification.
Emperor Yan's heart sank. Could it be that cultivating immortality and the throne were both impossible? To achieve immortality, he had to give up his power?
The ruler of Daluo Kingdom was also struck by lightning.
His Majesty the Emperor of Dayan showed such respect to the shop owner, yet he received the same reply, which showed that what she said just now was not a lie.
What's worse is that he also offended the shop owner. Thinking about it, he almost shed tears.
What should I do now?
How can I seek the store owner’s understanding?
No matter what, as long as I can get forgiveness, it is worth it no matter how high the price I pay.
The ruler of Daluo State closed his eyes, stiffened his neck, and posed as if waiting to be slaughtered. "Shopkeeper, I... I know I was wrong. I apologize to you right now! Please wait, I'll prepare a gift for you right away!"
He turned and left.
Feng Yuanning was stunned and speechless. "No need for that. Even if you apologize, it won't change the fact that you can't cultivate. Besides, in my opinion, being rude is not a big mistake. As long as you admit your mistakes and can correct them, and know how to apologize, that's enough. There's no need for apology."
Is she someone who needs gifts? She has everything she needs now, so why would she be easily bribed? This kind of bad precedent cannot be set. If everyone comes to bribe her, she will be annoyed to death.
The King of Daluo stopped, turned around, patted his chest, and said earnestly: "Shopkeeper, you are welcome. No matter what you want, this king... I will..."
"Alright, I said no, so I don't. Are you taking my words lying down?!" Feng Yuanning interrupted him impatiently, "I'm leaving now. You can wander around freely. By the way, I have a few puppets in my shop. Even if they're just maids, they should be treated with respect, don't you think? Also, I believe that a ruler should put the people first. What do you think?"
After asking the question, she didn't wait for their reply, but cast the magic of "Apparition" and instantly disappeared from the spot and returned to her guest room.
The ruler of Daluo State shouted, "Wait a minute, owner! I know I was wrong. Everything you said is correct!" He gritted his teeth and said, "I no longer want to be the ruler. I will return and pass on the throne."
His ministers and attendants immediately persuaded him:
"Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible. The prince and princess are still young, how can they inherit the throne?
"Yes, my king, the innkeeper just said that a ruler should put the people first. Have you ignored his words?"
The ruler of Daluo Kingdom stamped his feet anxiously: "By the time they grow up, I will be old. How can I cultivate immortality?!"
The Emperor of Yan was originally in a depressed mood. Hearing the words of this eccentric ruler, he couldn't help but laugh and cry. He said, "Does the ruler need my help?"
The ruler of Daluo State was extremely suspicious: "Can you help me?"
The Emperor of Yan smiled and said, "I have a plan. If you are willing to submit to Great Yan, I will not only confer upon you the title of Duke, but I will also grant you all your wealth and property, and send officials to govern your people."
The King of Daluo State opened his eyes wide: "There is such a good thing?!"
Emperor Yan: “…”
He couldn't help but deeply doubt his life. How could such a person sit firmly on the throne?
The ministers and attendants of the Lord of Daluo Kingdom were almost crying in the toilet:
"Your Majesty, this is absolutely unacceptable. Please think twice."
"Your Majesty, the Daluo Kingdom's prosperity cannot end in your generation!"
"Your Majesty, even if you pass the throne to someone else in the kingdom, it is better than the Daluo Kingdom disappearing from this world..."
"You wish!" The King of Daluo glared, "Shut up, everyone! If you dare say another word, I'll... Humph, tell me the truth. Are you jealous of me? Don't you?"
His ministers and attendants were silent for a moment.
Emperor Yan: “…”
Would he rather be with foreign nations than with his allies? But to be honest, for the ruler of Daluo, this was indeed the best option, at least it could maximize his own interests.
Emperor Yan advised, "Your Majesty, there is no need to rush into a decision. While immortality can certainly grant immortality, it is not guaranteed to be achieved."
When he mentioned immortality, the ruler of Daluo State was caught off guard. Even his breathing quickened. He clenched his fists and said, "As long as I can live forever, what's the point of being a ruler if I live in a place like this every day?!"
Compared to this Fairy Garden Hotel, his palace is so shabby that it is unbearable to look at.
Well, even though the shop owner didn't want an apology, how could he take it seriously? He went back to prepare apology until the shop owner was satisfied.
Emperor Yan smiled and turned to Bai Haoge and said, "Hao'er, you are more familiar with this Xianyuan Hotel. Take us around."
"Yes, Father."
…
The moonlight is like water.
With the order from Queen Bai, the Third Prince Jun Ye and his entourage left the capital unhindered, heading straight for the teleportation array beam that reached the sky.
Unexpectedly, when they got closer, they saw three familiar figures suddenly appear in the light column.
He hurriedly stopped and immediately bowed on the spot, "I pay my respects to the Emperor, Father. The Empress Dowager specially sent me here to check on the situation. Now that the Emperor has returned safely, the Emperor and the Empress Dowager are relieved."
Emperor Yan was stunned for a moment, hesitated for a moment, then smiled: "Ye'er, you've come at the perfect time. I have decided to make you the Crown Prince. After a while, I will officially pass the throne to you."
After a tour of the Xianyuan Hotel, he finally made up his mind. Now that he didn't have much time left, he might as well abdicate and pursue immortality.
He didn't have much time to waste.
Jun Ye: “!!!”
He raised his head and looked at the three of them carefully, only to find that his father was smiling and had a gentle expression, and his words did not seem to be testing him.
My brother frowned, as if he wanted to object, but in the end he didn't say anything.
Master Shen was holding a pile of books in his hands. He looked the same as usual and just stood there silently.
Jun Ye was confused. This matter was too unusual. If his brother was opposed to it, why would his father ignore his opinion?
As he thought about it, he couldn't hold it in any longer and finally asked, "Why did the emperor suddenly change his mind?"
The Emperor of Yan glared at him and said, "Can I still deceive you? Come, follow me back to the palace. Tomorrow at court, I will propose that you be made Crown Prince. You should be prepared."
"...Yes." Jun Ye looked at Bai Haoge suspiciously.
It would be great to be the crown prince, but he always felt that everything that happened today was abnormal.
Before going to the Xianyuan Hotel, my father had never intended to abdicate, but after visiting the hotel, he suddenly changed his mind. This is really strange.
Due to Emperor Yan's request, he had to give up his plan to go to Xianyuan Hotel and set off home with Emperor Yan and others.
As the Emperor of Yan walked away, he said, "Ye'er, you don't have to worry. In fact, I have long planned to make you the Crown Prince, but your character still needs to be tempered, so I have not yet decided on a title for you."
Jun Ye glanced at Bai Haoge from time to time: "That big brother..."
The Emperor of Yan explained, "Your elder brother has no intention of competing with you. I only hope that from now on, you brothers can get along well and support each other."
Bai Haoge, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly said, "Father, I think that truth will come to light sooner or later. It would be better to explain the reason clearly."
Emperor Yan: “…” If the reason is really explained, who would still want the throne?
Seeing that he didn't speak, Bai Haoge stopped and cast a spell to separate the strangers. He said, "Third brother, the situation is like this. Today, the owner of the Xianyuan Hotel said that the ruler of a country cannot practice immortal arts. If he wants to cultivate immortality, he must abdicate. Therefore, my father has decided to abdicate in the near future. Unfortunately, I have already become an immortal cultivator, so I naturally cannot share my father's worries. Right now, I can only rely on you."
Jun Ye: “…”
So the throne has become a hot potato?
The situation changed so quickly that he couldn't react.
Emperor Yan patted Bai Haoge's shoulder and said comfortingly, "Hao'er, this is not your fault. Before the owner spoke, who could have known the secret of this?"
Bai Haoge lowered his head, a look of guilt on his face. "I deeply regret not being able to share Father's worries. Third brother, if you don't want to take the throne, then it will have to be my second brother. If my second brother doesn't want to either, and my two sisters are still young, they simply can't take on the responsibility. This throne... Alas, Father is old after all, and he can't wait much longer."
Emperor Yan cleared his throat and said, "Actually, Ye'er, you are still young after all. It would be better for you to gain experience on the throne for a few years first. When the time is right and a new successor is chosen, it won't be too late to cultivate immortality."
Jun Ye was in a complicated mood.
He was very unwilling to give up and had already made plans to seize the throne, but he didn't expect...
In the blink of an eye, the throne has become a useless thing that no one wants?
Emperor Yan glanced at him and continued to persuade him, "Ye'er, compared to your second brother, I actually trust you more. Only if you succeed to the throne can I abdicate with peace of mind. Are you willing to take on this important task?"
Jun Ye: “…”
My mood is so complicated that I can't say a word.
Emperor Yan sighed deeply: "Ye'er, I won't force you. Go back and think about it carefully. No matter what decision you make in the end, I won't blame you."
