"A messenger from the Da Qian? Where did the Da Qian messenger come from? Why did he ask me to go to the palace? Who are those messengers? How many of them are there? "
Chan Yinsha looked at the kneeling Silver Shark Warrior and couldn't help but ask this question.
She had a high status in the Yun Nation and wasn't subject to any restrictions. Usually, even the king of the Yun Nation wouldn't summon her unless there was a major matter. This was to avoid disturbing the daughter of a ghost immortal and the princess who was the reincarnation of one of the eight great demon immortals.
It had to be known that the Yun Nation relied almost entirely on Chan Yinsha's reputation to develop and grow stronger. Furthermore, there weren't any powerful pirates who attacked its citizens.
More than 10 years ago, the Yun Nation only had a population of 200,000 to 300,000.
In just a short 10 years, the population had increased by three to four times to 800,000. The nation's strength had also gradually become stronger. Large tracts of wasteland had been developed, food had been accumulated, and livestock had been reared. The entire nation's tax revenue had also reached 500,000 taels of silver a year.
This was almost all due to Chan Yinsha's invisible deterrence. Without Chan Yinsha, the people of the Yun Nation would have been harassed by endless pirates and plundered by warships. They wouldn't have been able to live and work in peace and prosperity. They would have become weaker and weaker.
The current Yun Nation would probably be under Chan Sha's direct command after the king's death. It would be logical for her to interfere with government affairs.
"Your Highness, it seems that the famous Champion Marquis of the Da Qian is here. He defeated Yun Meng's fleet at sea and successfully returned. He passed by the Yun Nation and came to visit us. At the same time, he wants to investigate something. The one who came is Champion Marquis, a Daoist priest, and the rest are guards. They only have a qilin warship, and they didn't bring many soldiers. The king has sent people to sprinkle water and yellow sand on the road. They are now in the Yun Nation to welcome the civil and military officials. The nobles are holding a banquet. The Champion Marquis wants to meet Your Highness, so the king has invited Your Highness to attend the banquet. The king has said that Your Highness must agree to this matter. "
The Silver Shark Warrior knelt on the ground and answered meticulously.
"Oh?" Chan Yinsha's eyes lit up as he turned to ask Hong Yi, "Hong Yi, what do you think about this?"
"To a big country like Yun Meng, the Da Qian is like a celestial empire, not to mention the Yun Nation. Since an important figure like the Champion Marquis has come to visit, the whole nation will naturally welcome him. We're on our way to the Imperial Palace, so let's take a look. "Hong Yi's face was expressionless as he said this.
"For him to come like this, he must be investigating something. This Marquis Champion was indeed not simple. He had actually managed to find his way to Cloud Island? It seems like there are many secret spies in the Divine Wind Nation who are constantly watching our Cloud Rising, as well as all the major merchant companies. "
Chan Yinsha's eyelids twitched, then he waved his hand. "Go back and report first, I'll catch up later."
"Yes!"
This group of Silver Shark Warriors was as loyal as the Dark Guards. Once they received Chan Yinsha's order, they retreated without hesitation.
"It seems like this Champion Marquis is indeed not simple. His martial arts are unfathomable, and he has even reached the pinnacle of Wu Sheng. Another genius has appeared out of nowhere. Perhaps this person will break through to the Human Immortal Realm like Hong Xuanji and become someone like the God of War. "
Chan Yinsha frowned again. "This person's existence is definitely a huge threat. Given my current means, I really want to discredit him."
During the treasure hunt in Heavenly Witch City, Hong Yi had already seen that the Champion Marquis' martial arts fist intent encompassed the eight desolates and pervaded the four extremes. It was even above the Endurance Realm. Compared to Wei Taicang and Chief Steward Wu, it was much more valiant.
Especially now that the other party was too young, not even 20 years old. No one would doubt that this was a genius that had appeared out of nowhere.
In history, as long as such figures didn't die, their achievements were extremely high.
"If we discredit him, the Yun Nation will be done for! The lives of the 800,000 commoners on the island and the foundation of the Yun Nation will be destroyed. Furthermore, this person has the Creation Gourd and the Divine Eagle King by his side. Even if he isn't our match, he can escape at any time. It will be difficult to discredit him. "
Hong Yi stood up. "When I was in the Wasteland, I took a quick look and didn't get a clear look at what kind of person he is. This time, I want to have a clear look at him."
They couldn't kill the Champion Marquis. Although Hong Yi and Chan Yinsha had the "Half Thunder Calamity" magic power, it wasn't impossible to kill the Champion Marquis.
However, Hong Yi thought about it. The Champion Marquis had many tricks up his sleeves, and no one knew what his trump card was. There were other things hidden in the Creation Gourd, so it wasn't a good idea to act rashly. Furthermore, if they killed the Champion Marquis, the Da Qian would probably use the entire nation's military to attack the Yun Nation.
The Yun Nation, which only had 800,000 people, would be crushed like an egg.
"Jin Xun 'er, why are you always sitting on my shoulder? Why are you climbing on my head? Hurry up and come down. I'll take you to the banquet. "
Hong Yi reached out and pulled Arachnida Gigantea, who was sitting on his shoulder and trying to climb on his head, down.
"Chi Zhuiyang, Mr Zhou, settle those slaves down. Lock them up and guard them strictly. Don't let any news leak out. Since the Champion Marquis has come to the Yun Nation, it's very likely that he has already sent people to investigate. Those captives are the slaves of the Fu Bo Army. Nothing must go wrong! "
After making up his mind, Hong Yi issued his orders.
The first was to strictly control the slaves of the Fu Bo Army. The second was to hide the Peach God Warship and the official ships of the Fu Bo Army.
Now, Hong Yi had many subordinates, all of them experts. He even had the Martial Sage, the Enduring Monk. Naturally, he was like a tiger that had grown wings. His wings were slowly filled with power. When Hong Yi gave some instructions, he would be able to carry them out properly.
In particular, the Enduring Monk had accepted Shen Tiezhu as his disciple the moment he had seen him. After all, they were from the Shen Family Ditch and were familiar with each other.
The farmers of the Shen Family Ditch had been tenants of the Daizen Temple in the past, and they had been renting the fields of the Daizen Temple for generations.
When the Enduring Monk had been a young monk, he had even gone to the Shen Family Ditch to collect rent and teach the villagers martial arts.
After giving out his orders, Hong Yi and Arachnida Gigantea boarded Chan Yinsha's carriage and headed for the palace in the Yun Nation.
About an hour later, the carriage entered the Yun Nation and arrived at the palace.
The Yun Nation's main city was tall and mighty. The floor was made of bluestone, and the horses' hooves made crisp and clear sounds as they stepped on the flagstones.
"Mmm, the main city of the Yun Nation naturally has a mighty aura. It is the capital of a nation after all. It is at least three times bigger than a wealthy province like the Shui Yang Province of Nanzhou. However, it would be great if the Heavenly Witch City could be moved here. It would really be a sturdy city."
After entering the Yun Nation's main city, Hong Yi looked at the scenery outside the window of the carriage. Along the way, there were shops, pedestrians, streets, and even people cleaning the gutters. Everything was in good order.
On the east side of the city, in a large wooden hall, the sound of many children reading books could be heard. They were reading a Three Character Classic in the Da Qian language.
"This city is well governed. It is ten thousand times better than the murky and lifeless Heavenly Witch City. This is the atmosphere of a nation. What can a Daoist sect like the Witchcraft and Ghost Path do with governance? The etiquette at the entrance of the palace is also very dignified. Even though it imitates Tianzhou's etiquette, it has learned its essence. "
At the entrance of the palace, there were tall red walls, yellow glazed tiles, and black iron-like floors. There were also groups of honor guards holding banners, blowing majestic horns, beating drums, and ringing bells. There were also fully armed guards spread out in all four directions. All of this demonstrated the atmosphere of the Yun Nation as a proper nation.
What did a proper nation look like? Of course, it was etiquette. Etiquette was dignified, and people's hearts were calm and united. They would feel like they were not a pile of loose sand, but a proper nation.
Chan Yinsha had a high status in the Yun Nation. Naturally, her carriage would not be stopped. It entered the palace through the main entrance and passed through a long road that led to the main hall in the center of the palace.
"Twelve levels of the Great Dao Brothel. This is an ancient etiquette."
Hong Yi sat in the carriage and looked at the green wooden buildings on both sides of the main road. They were carved with flying eaves and arches. Along the way, there were twelve levels of doors. He was secretly shocked.
The twelve levels of the Great Dao Brothel was an ancient etiquette of the palace.
The brothel was originally used to describe the palace, but it gradually became known as a brothel. (The proof that the brothel was originally the palace came from Suiyuan Poetry. In it, Yuan Mei wrote about Luo Binwang's poem. He believed that the brothel before the Tang Dynasty was used to describe the palace.)
The carriage stopped beside the main hall. A few eunuchs came up to help Chan Yinsha. After kneeling to greet her, they helped the three of them into the main hall of the state banquet.
The entire great hall gave off a majestic feeling. The civil and military officials, the cabinet ministers of the Rising Cloud Nation, and even the many princes and princesses were all present. Each person had a large table, and they were strictly arranged according to their status.
This was a grand banquet.
The chimes in the surroundings were struck by the musicians, producing beautiful music.
Many incense burners spewed out the smoke of ambergris.
This was a small imperial court from overseas.
When Hong Yi walked in, he saw the Champion Marquis sitting at the very top. He was on the same level as the king of the Yun Nation, who was wearing a yellow robe.
