Chapter 653 I Won’t Come If You Don’t Invite Me
"If I had known this, I would not have taken the Black and White Impermanence test."
"It would be easier if you reincarnate early." Bai Wuchang had a sad face. He had worked very hard to get a stable job in the underworld, but now he was crying from exhaustion.
"I wonder what the little ancestor wants us to do by summoning us here?" asked Hei Wuchang.
Lu Chaozhao nodded.
"Bring out their souls." She pointed coldly at the bodies of several men on the ground.
The Black and White Impermanence did not ask any further questions, as the King of Fengdu had specifically instructed them to just carry out their duties.
After a while, several men stood up in confusion.
I looked down at myself, feeling a little dazed.
Seeing the Black and White Impermanence in front of him, he trembled with fear and immediately knelt on the ground, calling them "Sir" all the time, in an extremely flattering manner.
"They are cannibalism. Let the judge give them a thorough trial. Imprison them in the eighteen levels of hell and treat them well." Lu Chaochao waved his hand and asked the Black and White Impermanence to take them away.
The Black and White Impermanence looked at each other and then looked at the few people with disgust.
He immediately said, "Yes, please rest assured, little ancestor."
"The underworld is currently compiling relevant laws regarding this matter, so please rest assured." Then he left the human world with the few people who were begging for mercy.
Everyone was silent and the atmosphere was somewhat heavy.
Everyone felt heavy-hearted; everything was more serious than they had imagined.
"Let's go."
After traveling day and night for three days, they finally arrived in Dongling.
Since entering Dongling, the situation has begun to become serious.
Even though the convoy was heavily guarded, it looked like it was not someone that could be easily messed with. But the refugees continued to come in droves, one group after another falling without stopping.
When Lu Chaochao arrived at the capital of Dongling, he discovered that the imperial city was heavily guarded.
"Who are you? Where are you from and where are you going?" The soldiers guarding the city glanced at everyone sharply with a fearful look on their faces.
"Our master is Princess Bei Zhao, and she has come here specifically to meet King Dong Ling."
Zhuifeng stepped forward and handed over the token.
The guardsmen's expressions softened a bit, their expressions distant but polite, and they only said to everyone, "I'm afraid His Majesty will not see you."
"Your Majesty has not attended the morning court for half a month and has not seen anyone."
"The city is not very safe right now. If the princess doesn't mind, why don't we stay outside the city for a while?" The general guarding the city looked nervous.
"Thank you for your kindness, but Princess has important matters to attend to and must go."
"Please open the city gate, little brother."
Zhuifeng and Zhumo were guarding in the front.
Anyone could see that the gates of the imperial city had been reinforced, and the soldiers defending the city drew their swords, seeming to be very nervous.
But their tension came from within the city.
"I'm sorry, Princess. Please come into the city quickly." The city guard had a serious face and could only shout loudly.
"Open the gates."
All the soldiers immediately looked around nervously, as if they were facing a powerful enemy.
The city gate creaked and opened a crack.
Cold sweat began to appear on the soldiers' foreheads, and when the gate was half opened, they hurriedly called for the convoy to come in.
The city is very quiet.
Extremely quiet.
There was not a single person to be seen in the most prosperous capital city, and it was eerily quiet everywhere. Only at the foot of the wall, you can vaguely see some bright red bloodstains.
The carriage creaked forward.
Soon, everyone arrived in front of the Dongling Palace. The palace was under strict defense and was almost surrounded by the Imperial Guards. Everyone's eyelids were twitching.
Zhuifeng took the token and went forward to negotiate.
The one guarding the city is General Mo, who once led Dongling soldiers to invade the Beizhao border and rob property, causing a lot of trouble for Beizhao.
He is also the person who has fought with Rong Che the most.
"The famous Princess Zhaoyang, I have heard of your name a long time ago and have admired you for a long time..." General Mo looked a little strange.
But the tone was definitely not warm.
How can it be so warm?
Rong Che, who always suppresses him, is his father.
After Rong Che finally left, a young boy named Lu Zhengyue came, who was better at fighting than Rong Che. It's Lu Chaochao's brother...
"Please go back. His Majesty will not see anyone." General Mo said lightly, with a sarcastic smile on his lips.
Lu Chaochao lifted the curtain and jumped out of the carriage.
"It's not up to you to decide whether to meet or not."
"Just report it."
General Mo's face suddenly turned dark.
"If you want to see him, you have to see if the civil and military officials of Dongling agree!"
"This is neither Beizhao nor Nanguo! Your Majesty is busy with government affairs and has no time to see you." General Mo's eyes revealed a hint of sarcasm. King Dongling is too busy to see you now.
Lu Chaochao took out the jade pendant from his arms.
This was the gift Xuan Jichuan gave her when she succeeded to the throne in the Southern Kingdom. At that time he said that everyone should come to Dongling and he would definitely do his best to be a good host.
Lu Chaochao had a lot of jade pendants at that time, so she just put them in the space and let them gather dust.
General Mo's expression changed when he saw the jade pendant. "How do you have this thing?" This was passed down by successive emperors of Dongling, and it has always had the same effect as if I were there in person.
He looked at Lu Chaochao deeply.
"Princess, please come into the palace." He whispered.
Lu Chaochao stood at the door, motionless.
"Just now you wouldn't let me in, and now... I don't want to go in anymore."
"Unless you ask the emperor to pick me up."
General Mo almost laughed out loud: "Hahahaha...Princess Zhaoyang, I know that you have ascended the throne in the Southern Kingdom and will take over the Southern Kingdom's empire after you reach the age of 15. But this is Dongling!"
"It's Dong Ling!"
"This is not the territory of the Southern Kingdom, nor is it the cowardly Emperor Xuanping."
"How can I, the King of Dongling, come to pick you up?" General Mo laughed loudly and mockingly, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
King Dongling has suppressed court officials with an iron fist since he ascended the throne, slaughtering all dissidents overnight.
The conflict in Dongling came to an instant halt.
In Dongling, the name of Wang can stop babies from crying.
Such a moody man, now unconscious, is even more frightening.
When the civil and military officials in the court saw him, it was as if they had seen a god of death.
"If you anger our king, even the Southern Kingdom and the Northern Zhao will not be able to protect you." Xuan Jichuan is a madman, a real madman.
General Mo looked at her coldly and said, "Okay, okay."
Rong Che, Lu Zhengyue, I can’t beat you, but I can hurt you deeply from the heart. How can this not be considered a victory?
I heard that Rong Che and Lu Zhengyue value this sister very much and they treasure her very much.
General Mo chuckled, turned around and walked into the palace.
The current King Dong Ling is more brutal than before.
When General Mo walked outside the Wuji Palace, the joy on his face faded slightly and became solemn. He lowered his head in obedience, without any trace of his previous arrogance.
All the civil and military officials in the court knelt trembling outside the Wuji Palace.
There was bitterness in the eyes of the court officials, but they did not dare to show it at all.
He just looked inside the hall nervously.
"Your Majesty, have you regained your consciousness today?" General Mo asked in a low voice.
Locusts appeared after the drought. Although natural disasters continue, the situation can be controlled at least.
Who would have thought...
The people in the city lost their minds overnight. Some are said to have eaten locusts, while others did nothing and woke up overnight…
Became a monster.
His eyes were red, his body was stiff, he couldn't speak, and he could only attack people indiscriminately.
Moreover, those who were attacked would be infected, and for a while, people in the city were in a panic.
The most terrifying thing is.
King Dongling was actually infected with the same disease.
However, he was probably firm in his heart and had not completely lost his mind.
But he became extremely irritable, suspicious and cruel.
Being an official in Dongling is now a high-risk job.
