Chapter 16: Emperor welcomes
The capital of the Golden Leaf Dynasty, the residence of the Nord family.
Raymond. After Nord read the secret report in his hand, an electric light flashed at his fingertips, and the secret report turned to ashes.
"Lilith, have you seen it? Qi Bei, this stinky boy, is also very promising. Who dares to laugh at him in the future, I will screw his head off." Raymond. Nord stroked a jasper ring on his finger and said softly, with relief and a touch of sadness in his eyes.
Raymond. Nord is the leader of the Nord family, but when it comes to the position of the next patriarch, it will definitely be him.
As the patriarch of this huge family, leadership talent and great strength are part of it, but children are also another important part.
Raymond. Among Nord's more than a dozen brothers, he has the fewest children, only two sons. After his wife died in childbirth, he did not remarry. Moreover, among the two sons, Qi Bei was a character destined to become a rice bug. Such strength is too strong. too thin.
Raymond. Nord did not marginalize Qi Bei because he was a waste. Among the two sons, Huai An looked like him, while Qi Bei looked very much like his mother. And because Qi Bei couldn't cultivate magic fighting qi, his protection for him was almost doting.
The patriarch is very opinionated about this, but he insists on his own opinion, and it is impossible to see Qi Bei suffer a little grievance. Instead, it was the genius Huaian, in order to train him, Raymond. Nord treats him harshly.
But now, Qi Bei is also rising like a comet, although he still can't believe it, but what Huai'an said will definitely not be false, just wait for Qi Bei to come back and check it for himself.
"Hammers, see how you handle Mingyue and Qi Bei's marriage this time, haha." Raymond. Nord thought of this and couldn't help laughing out loud.
Emperor Hammers was a majestic and powerful emperor, but the conflict between imperial power and aristocratic family could not be eliminated no matter which dynasty or generation. It's just that in the Golden Leaf Dynasty, this contradiction is even more acute.
Even if the Nord family now says they want to give up power, but with the appeal and influence of the Nord family, Emperor Hammers will be sleepless, unless the Nord family is uprooted.
However, the Nord family has tens of thousands of people up and down, how could they be slaughtered, so the contradiction between the two cannot be reconciled at all.
The five trash of the Nord family came back alive from the Undead Mountains!
The news quickly spread throughout the entire imperial capital, from the officials and nobles to the common people, almost everyone is talking about this matter, if you don't know, you will definitely be despised.
At this time, it has been nine months since Qibei was hijacked by the undead magician to the Undead Mountains.
Where are the Mountains of the Dead? That is a forbidden area for strangers, even if it is a king-level magician or warrior, if they stay in it for so long, there will be no bones left.
How on earth did Qi Bei, a helpless waste, do it.
Some people say that Qi Bei has been hiding in a cave, living by eating earthworms or something, until he is found by his elder brother Nord Tiger.
Some people say that Qi Bei found an elixir left by a **** in it.
Some people also said that Qi Bei was taken in by a female zombie who had opened up his intelligence in the Undead Mountains. In order to survive, he would be XXOO a hundred times by that female zombie every day. If Qi Bei heard about this version, I don't know how he would feel...
In addition, the most discussed is the marriage of Qi Bei and Princess Mingyue.
In the beginning, Emperor Hammos personally promised that if Qi Bei came out of the Undead Mountains alive, he would marry Princess Mingyue to him.
And whether Hammers the Great will go back on his promise or honor his promise, this is the focus of the discussion.
For this question, there is no such version of how Qi Bei came back alive from the Undead Mountains, and the discussion was divided into two distinct factions.
One faction believes that Princess Mingyue is the most favored daughter of Emperor Hammers, a genius of cultivating light magic, and Qibei is a waste It's just to appease the Nord family. Even if Qi Bei comes back alive, he will regret it. Your Nord family can still bite him.
The other faction believes that as Emperor Hammers, he has no jokes, and the Nord family is not easy to deal with. He is now riding a tiger and can only suffer from this dumb.
At this time, Princess Mingyue, one of the parties, sat on the swing in the back garden holding her unicorn cub indifferently, and the white skirt floated with the swing of the swing , like a person in a painting.
"Xiao Bai, he came back alive from the Undead Mountains, what do you think I should do?" Princess Mingyue asked softly, but her eyes were as cold as the moon, but there was no sign of confusion. , maybe she already knew what to do.
The unicorn cub in his arms hissed twice, it could not understand what the master was saying.
"Kill him!" An erratic voice sounded in Princess Mingyue's ears, and behind her, a ghostly figure appeared at some point.
Princess Mingyue's expression did not change at all. What she asked just now was not about the unicorn cub, but about this mysterious person.
road.
"I only kill people, you ask me for nothing." After the mysterious man finished speaking, his figure gradually faded, and soon the ice and snow under the sun dissipated into the air.
"Oh, I'm not asking, I just want to talk to someone." Princess Mingyue sighed and stroked the hair on her forehead.
The southern gate of the imperial capital, two columns of fully armed soldiers are lined up on the left and right, on the city wall of the gate, the Great Emperor Hammers is on it, and his eyes are looking into the distance.
To the left of Hammers, stood a group of his trusted ministers, and to his right were several core figures of the Nord family.
The patriarch of the Nord family was sitting in Koti. Nord stood beside the Great Emperor Hammers. The famous old man was already in his old age. His face was like tree bark, his eyes were a little cloudy, and he was leaning on a cane made of unknown material. When you get up, you will be on the verge of rotten wood, and you may rise to the sky with your legs at any time.
It's just, Curty ten years ago. Nord is already like this, but he is still alive and well, and now he just looks more old-fashioned.
"You immortal, why don't you die." Hammers glanced at the sleepy Curtie. Nord, cursing inwardly, he was sure the old thing was pretending, but there was a kind and respectful smile on his face.
"Old Kodi, it's windy here, you'd better go back and wait." Emperor Hammers said with concern.
"Ah... What His Majesty just said, the old minister was a little deaf and didn't hear." Curtie. Nord opened his turbid eyes, looked at Emperor Hammers and said loudly.
Hammoth the Great repeated, Curtie. Nord nodded and said loudly: "Your Majesty's body is important, and the wind will not bother His Majesty to wait. The old minister respectfully sends His Majesty."
Curdy. Nord's voice was so loud that everyone on the city wall and under the city wall heard it.
