Madam Mu's eyes flicked over the bodies of those monster generals as tall as mountains.
"I understand what you are thinking. Luoheng is my own daughter. If she can inherit the throne, will Your Majesty and I still be so worried? Rumors are just rumors after all, whether it is a few days ago or a few years ago, Pope No matter how talented your majesty is, he was only a teenager back then. Do you really think that he can solve problems that our race has been unable to solve for tens of thousands of years? It's just a means created by the human race."
These words are very reasonable and convincing.
The elders, generals and ministers in the palace thought that His Royal Highness Luoluo was still as petite and weak as he was when he was a child in the past few years. He sighed regretfully in his heart.
The Great Elder was not convinced, and said, "I want to see Your Majesty."
Madam Mu stared into his eyes and said, "You know His Majesty is recuperating."
The Great Elder said: "I know, but the inheritance of my monster clan is a major matter, and His Majesty should be able to understand my interruption."
Madam Mu was silent for a while, then said: "If Your Majesty wants to see you, of course you can."
…
…
An hour later, the Great Elder returned to the palace, and the oil candles on the stone wall shook without any wind.
Countless eyes fell on the Great Elder, wanting to know whether he had seen His Majesty Baidi or not, and what His Majesty had said.
The Great Elder shook his head and said, "I haven't seen Your Majesty."
The Yaozu elders and ministers and generals in the palace sighed regretfully.
"But I feel His Majesty's will, so I will not object to this matter."
The Great Elder looked at Mrs. Mu and said, "However, this matter must be done in accordance with the tens of thousands of years of inheritance rules of my monster clan. Even if Her Royal Highness wants to marry someone, she can't know each other privately. Tianshu Huanghuo must choose the owner by herself. Follow the will of the ancestors and gods."
Hearing this, there was another discussion in the hall, but this was originally part of the rumors, so I wasn't too surprised.
Madam Mu said, "You mean to officially hold the ceremony of the election?"
"That's right." The Great Elder put his hand on the handle of the ax again, and said, "Otherwise we will still rebel."
Madam Mu stared into his eyes and said: "Everything is done according to the rules of the clan, there can be no mistakes, do you dare to promise?"
The Great Elder said: "Your Majesty, you are deeply respected by all people in the clan. It has been hundreds of years. I am old, and I only hope that everything will be as before."
After saying this, he walked out of the hall, his mountain-like body cast a large shadow on the floor.
Most of the Yao clan elders and about half of the ministers and generals in the hall saluted Mrs. Mu and left with the first elder.
Madam Mu was silent for a while, then waved her sleeves, signaling those loyal servants in the hall to leave.
The hall was quiet again, and there was no one else but her.
The oil candles radiated bright light, but had a slight burnt smell, and being blown by the night wind, the light and shade were uneven.
Hundreds of years have passed, and she still hasn't gotten used to it, and she still misses the gentleness of the merman beads in the Daxizhou Palace.
The stone wall was clearly illuminated and seemed to be extremely smooth, but under her gaze, the ups and downs on it could naturally be seen.
How can such a rough stone be qualified to enter the palace? This was something she could never have imagined when she was a princess in Daxizhou.
That's right, she has been in Baidi City for many years, and there are still many things she can't get used to.
For example, those mentioned above, such as those that just happened.
If it was placed in Daxizhou or the capital of the human race, with the attitude of the great elder, I am afraid that he would have been executed long ago.
But this is Baidi City. For tens of thousands of years, the monster clan living here has lived like this, and their discussions are so straightforward, or barbaric.
What a bunch of uncivilized beasts.
She couldn't get used to it, and couldn't really change all of this, because she was just the Empress Empress, not the White Emperor.
She stood in the middle of the empty palace, silent for a long time.
A wind came from the far west sea, whistling into the mountains.
Many fish died in the blue lake like the sea behind the mountain.
A faint smile appeared on her face, very kind, like a mother looking at a child.
She was originally the mother of all Yaozu people.
The light and shadow moved slightly, and a young man walked in.
The young man was handsome, tall, and well-mannered.
He is the second prince of Daxizhou.
Madam Mu looked at him and said pitifully, "It's really hard work for you to get away for nothing this time."
The second prince smiled and said: "It's nothing to soak in the sea rain and wind for the happiness of my cousin. Besides, I haven't seen the scenery on both sides of the Red River for many years, and I miss it."
Mrs. Mu said: "After the selection of the heavens begins, entering the Heavenly Tree to experience wild fire will also be very helpful to your practice."
"It's a rare encounter, of course we want to gain some benefits, but... who is the best son-in-law you chose for your cousin?"
The second prince looked at her and asked curiously: "Are you so sure that he will be chosen by the ancestor spirit?"
Mrs. Mu said: "I just let him enter the Heavenly Tree to undergo the baptism of wildfire. As for whether he will be chosen by the ancestor spirit of the monster clan, it depends on his own ability."
The second prince thought for a while and said, "Is it Xiaode?"
Madam Mu patted his arm and said, "Don't think too much, spend more time chatting with your aunt, she is not in a good mood recently."
The second prince sneered, and said: "If I didn't know that Chen Changsheng would not come, I would have fought against him."
…
…
The day the Daxizhou Mission arrived in Baidi City.
That is, the second day after Bian Yang Hong and Boundless Bi arrived in Baidi City.
That is, the third day after the Nanxizhai civil strife broke out.
That is, the day before the start of the selection ceremony.
At that time, Chen Changsheng was still in Lishan, and he had not received the letter Hongyan brought from the capital, nor had he received the handwritten letter from Master Shang Xingzhou from King Lou Yang.
Neither the imperial court nor the state religion had received any news from Baidi City, and his insight into the secrets of the sky was like a merchant's boat, and his eyes still stayed in Xuelao City in the north for the time being.
No one knew that a person set off from Xuelao City many days ago and entered Baidi City on the same day as the Daxizhou mission.
The young man successfully passed the inspection of the demon guards and lived in a courtyard in the east of the city.
That courtyard existed here many years ago. It is very ordinary, but it is very wide and covered with yellow sand. It looks like a desert.
There are some blood stains in the yellow sand all over the ground, which is shiny, as if mixed with gold flakes, but the smell has long since disappeared.
There is a tree deep in the yellow sand.
The tree is not very big, and the leaves are not very dense, but the shadow area falling on the ground is very large, without any light spots, and the darkness is like the real night.
The young man was standing under the tree.
Although the shadow is very thick, it can still be seen clearly. There are no magic horns on his head. No wonder he can enter the city so easily.
"This is the last foothold of my protoss in Baidi City? The green blood and yellow sand are interesting."
The young man looked around with interest with his hands behind his back, but he didn't know who he was talking to.
"If Baidi didn't really fall asleep, it's too dangerous, leave quickly, military division."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The wind blows the leaves slowly, and the shadows shake restlessly, like clothes, or who is talking.
In the courtyard full of yellow sand, only the young man with his hands behind his back was left.
He looked up to the sky.
The winter sun shone on his face.
His face was pale and he looked unhealthy.
He squinted his eyes.
Putting hands behind one's back, looking up at the sky, and squinting eyes, it seems that the big shots in the world like such actions.
Yes, this young man from Snow Old City is a real big shot.
He was the young Demon Lord Chen Changsheng had seen in the snowy ridge.
