Cheng De Hall was still the same Cheng De Hall. Xiao Hua only waited for about half an hour before Ying Fei flew out from the back of the hall. Ying Fei was naturally still the same Ying Fei. The anxiety on her face had long disappeared. She looked at Xiao Hua who bowed with a smile, raised her hand and said, "Fellow Immortal Zhang, please rise. Fellow Immortal Zhang is really His Majesty's lucky general. Not only did you save His Majesty, but you also went to the demon realm to save the princes of Mo Qingguo and Xuan Yi Guo, and … and exposed the conspiracy of some immortals. You have made a great contribution to His Majesty.
Ying Fei kept saying "His Majesty". Naturally, she was referring to Zhaoyan Prince and not anyone else. Xiao Hua only smiled without saying anything. He was Zhu Ding's West Banquet Master and had long been marked as Zhaoyan Prince. It was useless to say more. After Ying Fei finished speaking, seeing that she was about to take out the imperial edict, Xiao Hua hurriedly coughed and said, "Empress, is there anything I need to pay attention to when I receive His Majesty's imperial edict?"
"Haha, if His Majesty's messenger is here, there will naturally be some complicated etiquette." Ying Fei pursed her lips and smiled. "Now that there are only you and me in Cheng De Hall, there is naturally no need. Zhang Xiaohua, Deputy Cavalry Archer, please receive the imperial edict … "
Xiao Hua did not dare to be negligent. He bowed and said, "Zhang Xiaohua receives the imperial edict!"
Ying Fei raised her hand and took out a golden disc-shaped object. She raised her hand and pointed at it. A human figure flew out from it and a slightly dignified voice sounded, "… Deputy Cavalry Archer, Zhang Xiaohua, saved the prince of Zhu Ding in the demon realm … Your contribution is great. I am very pleased. Today, I confer Zhang Xiaohua the position of Cavalry Archer of Xuan Country and reward him with some money, crystals, elixirs, and secret techniques. I hope Zhang Xiaohua will put the country's affairs first and do his best to make new contributions …"
King Qian Xuan's imperial edict was different from Lord Ruxiu's imperial edict. It lacked some difficult words and was more practical. When the voice disappeared, the human figure fell into the disc-shaped object. Xiao Hua hurriedly shouted, "Zhang Xiaohua thanks His Majesty for the reward."
"Xiao Hua, please rise …" The Imperial Concubine accepted the imperial edict with a smile. Then, she took out another Dimensional Ring and handed it to Xiao Hua, saying, "This is a reward from His Majesty. Take a look …"
After Xiao Hua received the Dimensional Ring, how could he possibly examine it in detail? Wannian glanced at it and a smile appeared on his face. He said, "I have already seen it. Thank you, Your Highness."
"There's no need to change Zhang Qishe's riding and shooting seal. His Majesty's military insignia is in the Dimensional Ring. Zhang Qishe can refine it into the riding and shooting seal."
Xiao Hua nodded and replied, "Yes, yes, I understand!"
Seeing Xiao Hua put away the Dimensional Ring, Consort Ying looked at Xiao Hua. She raised her finger and flicked it into the air, causing a spark to fly out. The spark rushed to the top of the hall and exploded. Layers of thin flames surged out and rapidly protected Chengde Hall.
Xiao Hua looked at the surging flames with a calm expression. He looked at the Imperial Concubine and didn't say anything.
Meanwhile, the Imperial Concubine looked at Xiao Hua meaningfully and asked, "Zhang Qishe, do you have any doubts after reading His Majesty's imperial edict?"
"Doubts?" Xiao Hua was stunned. He shook his head and said, "I didn't find anything strange. Why would I have any doubts?"
"Haha …" The Imperial Concubine laughed and said, "In my Xuan Yi Country, Deputy Riding and Shooting can be a nominal position, but Riding and Shooting is definitely a real position. Since His Majesty gave you the position of Riding and Shooting, you should be the Immortal Soldier Senjō. The imperial edict didn't mention anything about this. Naturally, there's something strange about it."
"I'm just an itinerant cultivator. I don't know about this rule. Maybe His Majesty has his own plans!" Xiao Hua didn't care about this and answered with a smile.
"No, no …" The Imperial Concubine shook her head and said, "You don't know. My Xuan Yi Country's Riding and Shooting position has to be reported to Kun Country. His Majesty can't just do it casually."
"Kun Country?" Xiao Hua was confused and asked curiously, "What's that?"
"Haha, I don't know the details …" The Imperial Concubine shook her head again and said, "I only heard some of it when His Majesty was chatting with Kou Changkong. You'd better ask Kou Changkong!"
Speaking of this, the Imperial Concubine changed the topic and asked, "Fellow Immortal Zhang, you met Kou Changkong in front of the two armies, right?"
"Of course …" Xiao Hua nodded reflexively and said, "When I came out of the Dazzling Pet Demon Realm, I asked to see Kou Changkong and hand Zhu Ding and Xiong Cheng over to him."
"That's strange!" The Imperial Concubine frowned and said, "Since Zhu Ding and Xiong Cheng are safe and sound, the deaths of Concubine Jing and Concubine Ling are a misunderstanding. The two armies should withdraw immediately. Why are they still there?"
Xiao Hua's heart skipped a beat and he glanced at the Imperial Concubine. Obviously, she didn't know about Concubine Ling.
"Recently, not only has the Zhaoyan Prince's Mansion increased the number of Senjies, but even Prince Yuwu's Mansion is the same. In particular, Concubine Ling's posthumous title and rewards have been delayed …" The Imperial Concubine suddenly looked at Xiao Hua and asked, "Zhang Qishe, do you know what's going on?"
"Ahem …" Xiao Hua coughed and said, "I just returned to the capital and don't know anything!"
"Okay!" The Imperial Concubine looked at Xiao Hua deeply and said, "Zhang Qishe, you can cultivate in the mansion. If you need anything, just tell me."
"Thank you, Your Highness …" Xiao Hua cupped his hands and thanked the Imperial Concubine. When he turned to leave, he suddenly thought of something and asked, "By the way, how are His Majesty and the Crown Prince?"
"His Majesty is still in seclusion and is doing well!" The Imperial Concubine replied, "As for Zhu Ding, he has been grounded in the mansion and is waiting for His Majesty's decree to punish him!"
"Sigh, that's right! It's time for the Crown Prince to be taught a lesson. "Xiao Hua sighed and flew out of Chengde Hall.
Looking at Xiao Hua's back, the Imperial Concubine had a complicated expression in her eyes.
"Congratulations to Zhang Qi She Daren for being in charge of the Prince's Mansion's soldiers … …" As soon as Xiao Hua flew out of Cheng De Palace Hall, Miao Quan came over to greet him. She bowed and saluted, "This humble one is under Daren's command.
"Ah? What do you mean? " Xiao Hua helped Miao Quan up and became even more puzzled. He asked, "Your Highness didn't let me take charge of the troops of the Prince's Mansion?"
"How is that possible?" Miao Quan smiled and said, "Previously, Qiao Yue, the Cavalry Archer of the Mansion, was convicted. There is no Senjō Commander in the Mansion. Lord Zhang was given the position of Cavalry Archer to replace Qiao Yue, right?"
"Oh? Qiao Yue was convicted? "Xiao Hua was surprised." When was this? What crime did he commit? "
"It was before Lord Zhang returned to the capital!" Miao Quan explained. "As for what crime, this humble servant doesn't know!"
"Damn …" Xiao Hua suddenly realized something. Yan Fei mentioned that the female immortal who practiced the Demon Clan flew out of the Zhaoyan Prince's Mansion. This female immortal must have brought out the news that Crown Prince Zhu Ding went to the Demon Realm to hunt. Yan Fei didn't know where the female immortal got the news, but since the news was leaked from the Zhaoyan Prince's Mansion, it was easy for the Virtuous Queen to find out the truth. If there was no accident, Qiao Yue was the source of the news. However, what surprised Xiao Hua was that the Imperial Concubine didn't know about this!
"This is too complicated …" Xiao Hua suddenly felt a headache coming on. He was only here to explore the Fire Spirit Immortal Mansion. How did he suddenly get involved in this boring battle? Unfortunately, Xiao Hua was in the limelight now. He couldn't even go to the Green Ink Ridge to find Chi Zhicheng's doppelganger, let alone explore the Fire Spirit Immortal Mansion.
