"Yao, don't be rude in the palace!" The queen had to stop her loudly. She looked at Wuyueyao with some surprise, as if trying to figure out what she was thinking.
The inheritance of Queen Yama has nothing to do with blood, but the relationship between the queen and the many shrine maidens is the same as that of mother and daughter, or sisters. Chiba has watched May grow up, so she naturally knows what kind of girl she is. She is brave and resolute, but not outgoing. She has almost never made any enmity with anyone. This is the first time Chiba has encountered her impulsive behavior.
"Your Majesty, I am just stating the facts." The witch said calmly.
But it was this calm answer that penetrated Qianyan Zhizi's heart.
She had never used such a formal title in the past.
For a moment, the Queen suddenly felt that Wuyue Yao was a bit unfamiliar.
The familiar girl from the past seemed to be far away from her.
"Are you... blaming me?" Chiba felt an unprecedented fatigue hit his heart, "I sent you on a dangerous journey of almost death, and put all the hope of saving the kingdom on you. I really owe you this. ."
"Your Majesty, these words are serious." Yuanjiu coughed twice, "Master Wuyue was not the only one who had important responsibilities at that time. Basically, everyone here has fought with Dongsheng Kingdom on the battlefield. It can only be said that the responsibilities are different."
"Lao Yuan is right. Wuyue Yao has indeed made great achievements, but this is not a reason for her to talk nonsense in the lobby!"
All the ministers agreed.
"Forget it, for the sake of the miko-sama's young age, I can ignore her gaffe." Fujiwara Shinji straightened his collar, pulled the guard back and said, "But she is no longer suitable for this meeting. Listen, Your Majesty, please let her go down and rest first."
Chiba Oriko's eyes stayed on Wushuyao.
But May was unmoved.
"I said it — I'm going to talk people back."
Several muffled chuckles echoed in the auditorium.
"Lord Wuyue, have you realized that this covenant has been based on deception from the beginning?" The man called Lord Qi opened his folding fan, held it to his mouth and said, "Jinxia City is just the beginning of Qi. A city in the southeast of the country, it represents neither Daqi nor the imperial court. And the Yama Kingdom has an equal status with the mainland kingdoms in history. How can it possibly sign a tribute treaty with a city? Isn't this a joke? ?"
Someone soon answered and said, "It would be great if Princess Ning could become the next monarch, but the news I heard is that she has not obtained the right to inherit. The king of Qi State is now Ning Weiyuan."
"To be honest, I was a little skeptical from the beginning." Fujiwara Masashi suddenly showed a playful expression, "Saksuki-sama has been in Kaiguo for so long, it is impossible that he does not know the situation there. He knows that the treaty is unfair , but ignore the interests of the evil horse kingdom, and still want to promote its implementation... The reason for this is really confusing. As the saying goes, besides money, what else can make people go to their heads? "
A lot more people laughed this time.
No one volunteered the answer.
But everyone in attendance knew the answer.
"Master Fujiwara, this is the political meeting hall." Master Qi deliberately reminded.
"Sorry, sorry, I'm rude." Fujiwara waved his hand, "But this is understandable - after all, no matter how perseverant and extraordinary Lord Satsuki is, he is just an untouched girl."
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere at the scene became a little strange. Everyone's eyes immediately focused involuntarily, falling on May's arms, neck and ankles.
It is true that the miko is a candidate for the queen, but there is only one who can become the queen in the end.
Most of the miko who are unsuccessful will marry into wealthy families and become the wives of others.
The witch itself is not an existence that is isolated from the world and far away from the fireworks of the world.
Wushuyao walked up to Fujiwara without hesitation and raised his hand to slap -
"Snapped!"
This slap caused the opponent's face to stick to the tatami, blood foam mixed with saliva spurted out from the corner of his mouth, and Fujiwara's smile froze at the moment of the slap.
"Asshole!"
"Be bold!"
The two shadow guards were furious. They pulled out the swords from their waists and chopped off Maya Haruka's hands and feet on the spot - they were not aiming at the vital points, but they were also afraid of the identity of the miko.
But someone is one step ahead of them!
Nai Qing and Nai Hong kicked the two guards away, one on the left and the other on the right. I saw two black shadows crashing directly into the lobby wall, smashing a hole in the wooden partition.
The ministers were instantly in an uproar!
"What are you doing, Wuyueyao? This is the political meeting hall, how dare you make trouble here!?"
"Guard, where are the guards?"
"Get this miko for me!"
However, the guard who was supposed to be guarding the door never showed up.
On the contrary, everyone present heard dull stamping sounds, as if some kind of giant beast was approaching here.
When the door was crashed down, they saw a bipedal mechanical creature with a shield on one arm and a multi-barrel iron gun fixed on the other hand.
At the same time, more noisy sounds reached the ears of the participants—
There were shouts, screams, and the unique clicking sounds of mechanisms operating.
Only then did they realize that there was chaos outside Yixie's house!
"Get out quickly!"
Mr. Qi could no longer take care of Her Majesty the Queen and ordered his personal guards to rush out of the gate. But before a group of people could get close to the machine beast, they were knocked down by a barrage of bullets. They also tried to fight back with guns and weapons supported by Jinxia, but the air rifle, which was effective against the Dongsheng Kingdom army, turned into a fire stick with no power in front of the machine beast with an iron shell, and the machine beast carried The multi-barreled air rifle is far superior to the weapons they have in terms of rate of fire and power.
The ministers immediately fled to avoid being killed by the gun.
Only Wushuyao stood motionless in the middle of the lobby.
The machine monster has no intention of attacking the shrine maiden. Its muzzle is always pointed at everyone except May and the green-faced ghost.
"You, you, you -" Yuan Jiudi, who was lying under the table, pointed at Wuyue Yao in shock and stuttered for a long time before he could finish his sentence, "You are actually in the same group! Wuyue Yao, are you crazy? This is It’s rebellion! Do you want to be the second Anjia?”
Qianye Zhizi also murmured in disbelief, "Why did you do this? Yao... Could it be that the Jinxia people bewitched you?"
"I have not been deceived by anyone. All this is my own decision." May turned around and said to Queen Evil Horse, "It is precisely because I have seen the world beyond the sea that I understand which path is evil." This is the path that the Ma Kingdom should take. Besides, Her Royal Highness the Princess and Lord Xia have been kind to me, and I don’t want to let them down."
"Disappointed? Are you kidding!" Mr. Fang shouted angrily, "National affairs are not child's play, how can you rely on your own preferences-"
He shut his mouth abruptly mid-sentence.
He saw Xue Qing put a finger on his forehead.
Everyone knows that if the green-faced ghost has murderous intentions, this finger is enough to pierce their head.
"It seems that Lord Qi has changed his original mind." Wuyue Yao smiled, "What about the others?" She looked around and her eyes fell on Yuan Jiudi, "How about we start with you... Yuan grown ups."
As she had declared before, she would convince everyone present.
—with the power she has at her disposal.
