Chapter 909 Messenger
"I will."
Zhou Ran nodded and agreed.
That night, Zhou Ran followed Lin Zhongze to King Jing's Palace, leaving Gongsun Yu alone in the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion.
Jingwang Palace is magnificent and magnificent.
The banquet was held in the royal garden of the palace. In the royal garden, there were many rare birds and beasts, as well as exotic flowers and plants. Although it was night, the lights in the royal garden were as bright as day.
"Master Qingfeng, please come this way!"
Lin Zhongze politely invited Zhou Ran, but Zhou Ran was not polite and sat down directly on the seat.
After Zhou Ran took his seat, Lin Zhongze also sat down. The Jingguo Imperial Master actually sat at the head of Zhou Ran, which showed that he had great respect for Zhou Ran.
The banquet began, all the wine and food were served, music played, and the enchanting dancer danced on the dance floor.
Zhou Ran was not interested in singing and dancing beauties, but Jingguo's royal wine made him have endless aftertaste. In a short time, he drank several bowls.
While drinking, Zhou Ran also paid attention to observation.
He was not the only master who was invited, representatives from other sects in Jingguo were also invited.
It is a pity that except for the three major sects in Jingguo, namely Jingzong, Qiankun Sect, and Jiange, all the remaining sects are small sects. Compared with them, it is himself, the disciple of Donghua Immortal, who sits on the top table.
Zhou Ran was sighing to himself, but Jing Kang, the leader of Jing Kingdom, looked over.
"Principal Qingfeng, thank you for the honor of attending the palace banquet. I hope you can listen to my explanation of the matter."
The king's words were polite, but Zhou Ran did not refute, but listened attentively.
"Decades ago, I was not the leader of Jingguo, but I knew very well about Fanyin Mountain! All of this was done by the Antarctic Immortal. Although I don't know why the Antarctic Immortal and the Donghua Immortal turned against each other, the Immortal A strong person in this realm can shake the world with just one step. Naturally, Jing Guo would not dare to disobey!"
"Under the pressure of the Antarctic Immortal, Jingguo could only unite the Qing Kingdom and the Song State, and use the power of the Three Kingdoms and Three Domains to send dozens of super powerful warriors to besiege the Donghua Immortal! In the end, the Antarctic Immortal succeeded in the sneak attack, making the Donghua Immortal fragrant. Xiaoyu is dead!"
"After this incident, Jingguo has been trying to make up for it, but he has no way to start! As for Jingzong's Fanyin Mountain plan, it was done by another force. Even I don't know the identity of this force, so I can only turn a blind eye. Close one eye."
"Although I am the leader of Jingguo, my control over Jingguo is far inferior to that of the sect. I am naturally powerless in some matters. Please forgive me, Master Qingfeng!"
Jing Kang, taking advantage of his drunkenness, kept expressing that what he said was of course all the truth.
Zhou Ran knew better than anyone else why Donghua Immortal died. It was the Antarctic Immortal who did it. As for the force that planned the Fanyin Mountain plan, it was Shimen, the largest sect in the inner domain.
The leader of Jingguo was honest with him, which showed that he really wanted to win over him.
No matter how Jing Kang expressed his position, Zhou Ran did not express his feelings. He just raised his glass high and toasted to the leader of the country.
Jing Kang had a bitter look on his face. Strong men were all unruly people. Zhou Ran's attitude was vague, but it was reasonable.
The banquet was in progress, and a man dressed as a messenger suddenly broke into the banquet.
"The special envoy of the Qing Kingdom, on the orders of the king, came to greet the king of the Jing Kingdom!"
The messenger had an arrogant attitude and shouted.
The music on the dance floor stopped, and the dancers also retreated.
Jing Kang looked embarrassed and looked at the envoy who came unexpectedly, and said: "Your envoy, it's getting late. I'm having a banquet for guests. Can we discuss the matter between the two countries tomorrow?"
"No!" the envoy refused, and took out Qing's credential and read it loudly, "The ruler of the country has an order to open the border city to Qing and Jing for shared use!"
As soon as he said this, the expression on Jing Kang's face was no longer very good.
The so-called border city is the first city from the outer domain to enter the inner domain. Since it is within the territory of Jingguo, Jingguo is fully responsible for the trade of the border town.
Although the border town is small, it is extremely prosperous.
Since merchants from other regions can only do business in border towns, goods and slaves from other regions are
It has always been sold only in border towns.
Jingguo's tax revenue came from border towns.
Qingguo does not border the outside world, so it shamelessly shares a border town with Jingguo, which is really difficult for others.
"Your Majesty, the border city is the territory of Jingguo. Although Jingguo's territory is vast, it does not have any extra land. It is absolutely forbidden to share the border city with Qingguo!"
Jingkang rejected the envoy.
The envoy did not flinch, he just glanced at the Jingguo masters present.
"I heard that the leader of Jingguo is recruiting troops to replace the three major sects! Unfortunately, these people at the banquet are all just wine and rice bags, and no one can be called a master! If the leader of Jingguo does not agree to the request of his country, According to the Lord’s request, Qingguo will definitely hunt with Jingguo. Please think again, Lord Jingguo!”
The envoy's words were arrogant and rude, which made Jing Kang unable to come to the stage.
The three major sects were destroyed and Jingguo's national power was greatly damaged. Qingguo actually took advantage of the situation and invaded, embarrassing Jingguo.
Jing Kang wanted to show off the envoy, but at this moment, he was unable to do so.
When Jingkang was in trouble, a master at the banquet table couldn't help it and said loudly: "Where did this guy come from? He doesn't know whether to live or die, and he came to the palace banquet to cause trouble! If I don't let you see how powerful he is, why don't you act like a king? There is no one in the country!”
As he spoke, the master rushed towards the Qingguo envoy.
This master also has the peak strength of Nascent Soul, and looks menacing, like a huge beast.
But the messenger didn't change his expression and didn't even move.
After the master stepped in front of him, the messenger waved his hand gently.
With this wave of his hand, the master in front of him suddenly stopped moving.
A cold expression appeared on the messenger's face.
"With this little ability, how dare you embarrass yourself in front of the envoys of the Qing Kingdom?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the master suddenly fell to the ground, his whole body motionless, and he was already dead.
All the masters from the Jing Kingdom present were astonished. The masters at the peak of Yuan Ying's strength could not sustain a move in front of the Qing Kingdom's envoy.
No one could even see how the envoy acted, let alone teach the envoy a lesson.
Those experts who still wanted to stand up for Jing Guo all remained silent and sat obediently in their seats.
Jing Kang was heartbroken. He asked his chamberlain to collect the body and warned the envoy from Qing: "Your envoy, although Jing is weak, a emaciated camel is bigger than a horse. Jing is not easy to mess with! If Qing continues to be aggressive, Even if Jingguo fights to the death, he will fight to the death with Qingguo! Please think twice and never do anything that harms others and does not benefit yourself!"
The envoy looked at the furious look of the leader of Jing Kingdom and suddenly felt proud.
"The capital of Jingguo is in such a state, and the king is so stubborn. I hope that when Qingguo's troops come to the city, the king can still be like this!"
