Chapter 233: The Founding Ceremony (2)

"Master, the Emperor of the Xia Dynasty is here." Zhang Huaming and Qin Xiaotian were discussing, when Zheng Xiaohu strode up to them and whispered.

"Your Majesty is here?" Zhang Huaming couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard this. He didn't invite anyone to the founding ceremony. Naturally, he didn't invite Emperor Zheng Chenggong of the Xia Dynasty. How could he come here on his own?

Surprised, Zhang Huaming soon felt relieved. His contribution to the Xia Dynasty Empire had been huge. It can be said that without him, not only would there be no Xia Dynasty Empire with strong national power and vast territory, but even the small Xia Dynasty.

It had already been divided up by others. Considering Zheng Chenggong's dual stance as a personal leader and national affairs, it was not surprising that he would come to cheer him up of his own accord.

"Your Majesty is here too?" Qin Xiaotian, who was equally surprised as Zhang Huaming, also looked at Zheng Xiaohu in surprise, and then looked at Zhang Huaming. Seeing his surprise, he immediately returned to a calm expression. After thinking about it for a while, he understood the mystery.

"Where is your majesty now?" Zhang Huaming asked after a moment of silence.

"It's still ten miles away." Zheng Xiaohu said. He was responsible for the patrol within ten miles of the Wuzhi Mountains. As soon as he heard the report from his subordinates, he couldn't make the decision, so he didn't dare to neglect, and immediately returned to the mountain to report to Zhang Huaming.

"Yeah." Zhang Huaming nodded, thought for a moment and said, "Then let's go meet him together."

With Zhang Huaming's current identity and status, there was no need to go to greet Zheng Chenggong in person, but the huāhuā sedan was carrying him. Since Zheng Chenggong had put aside state affairs and came all the way to cheer for him, he had to take care of his emperor's airs and pomp.

"That's fine, etiquette cannot be discarded." Qin Xiaotian agreed.

So the three of them went down the mountain and sped towards the official road a mile away.

On the official road a mile away, a rather grand team was marching towards the Wuzhi Mountains at a leisurely pace, with flags fluttering. In front of them were two thousand horse-riding Imperial Guards opening the way, followed by an eight-horse team.

On both sides of the imperial banquet, there are dozens of palace eunuchs, ninety guards holding broadswords, bows and arrows, and hundreds of other entourages.

The long and huge team, a rough estimate, there are about 3,000 people, the scene is extremely beautiful.

There is no doubt that the person who can sit on that imperial banquet and have such a gorgeous pomp is none other than the current Emperor of the Xia Dynasty, Zheng Chenggong. However, in addition to Zheng Chenggong, there is also a young and beautiful woman in the supreme imperial banquet. Although

She can't compare with Leng Lan, Ningjiang, Liu Xin and others, but she can still be regarded as a beautiful woman.

"Your Majesty, Zhang Huaming has not invited you, why do you come all the way to this remote place?" The young and beautiful woman peeled off a lychee and threw it into Zheng Chenggong's mouth, and asked in confusion, "You are the one

Your Majesty, no matter how powerful Zhang Huaming is, he is still a prince under your command. He didn't even invite you. It's obvious that he doesn't take you to heart at all. This is a crime of contempt for the Holy One. He must be taught a lesson even if it is not necessary.

That's it, lest he forget who his master is."

"Do you really think so?" Zheng Chenggong swallowed the lychee, looked at the young and beautiful woman with slightly narrowed eyes, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly with a smile that was not a smile.

"Yes, Your Majesty, how dare I deceive Your Majesty?" The young and beautiful woman saw that Zheng Chenggong had a smile on her face after listening to her words, and she felt happy and said impatiently.

In today's Xia Dynasty Empire, everyone is saying that although Zheng Chenggong is the emperor, his real master is Zhang Huaming, who holds great power in the military and whose reputation and prestige in the empire are far higher than Zheng Chenggong's. Therefore, most of them

Everyone thinks that Zheng Chenggong should be quite miserable sitting in the emperor's seat.

Seeing that they were about to reach the Wuzhi Mountains, the young and beautiful woman was a rookie who had just entered the palace. She had been thinking about how to quickly improve her status in the palace, so she scolded her severely in front of the emperor.

Zhang Huaming, the man with great achievements, seems to have worked.

"Snapped"

In the expectant eyes of the young and beautiful woman, the pleasant-looking Zheng Chenggong's face suddenly sank, and he suddenly sat up, half leaning on the imperial banquet, and slapped the woman's fair and smooth lips hard.

There was a crisp sound on her pretty face, and a bright red fingerprint was engraved on her face.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, you..." The young and beautiful woman caressed her burning and painful cheek with a catkin. She was stunned and looked at Zheng Chenggong in disbelief, her eyes full of shock.

"Who do you think you are? You are just a beautiful woman of mine. How dare you slander King Xiaoyao's reputation in front of me?" Zheng Chenggong stared at the young and beautiful woman with an angry look on his face, and said in a cold and solemn tone, "Xiaoyao

The king, my Xia Dynasty Empire, and even me personally, have made great contributions that no one can erase, let alone let me come uninvited and come all the way to the Wuzhi Mountains to participate in the opening ceremony, even though I am thousands of miles away

, I will do the same thing. You are a little pretty girl, but you don’t think carefully about how to treat me well, but you are so bold that you make irresponsible remarks about the rights and wrongs of government affairs. If you were not a first-time offender, I would kill you immediately."

At this time, Zheng Chenggong's eyes were full of murderous intent, with fierce flashes appearing frequently, his face was gloomy, and he looked like he was ready to eat someone at any time. When had that young and beautiful woman seen such a terrifying side of the emperor? She was stunned on the spot.

She stayed where she was, her body stiff, and she was completely unaware of the burning pain on her pretty face.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. I am aware of my guilt. I should not talk too much and talk about the rights and wrongs of King Xiaoyao. Please punish me." The young and beautiful woman finally recovered from her daze and knelt down in front of Zheng Chenggong with a frightened expression.

Zhang begged for mercy.

"If anyone dares to bring up the troubles of King Xiaoyao in front of me in the future, I will immediately destroy all nine tribes in his family." Zheng Chenggong said coldly.

"Your Majesty, calm down, I will never dare to do this again." The woman was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she kept kowtowing with a pale face.

"Humph" Zheng Chenggong snorted coldly, stared at the young woman hard, slowly closed his eyes, leaned back on the soft pillow again, and remained silent for a long time.

The wife, who was frightened out of her wits by Zheng Chenggong's sudden change of face, saw that the emperor closed his eyes and stopped talking. Her fearful and uneasy heart finally breathed a sigh of relief. She knelt down tremblingly beside her and did not dare to speak again. She was just a little surprised in her heart. According to her own thoughts,

No matter who is the supreme emperor, no one would want someone with great achievements to overwhelm the emperor. Regardless of the prestige and power, he will always be on top of his head. With the personality of His Majesty Zheng Chenggong, this should be especially true. Why is Your Majesty doing this?

After hearing what he said, he was like a rabbit whose tail was stepped on, frightened and angry, and even had the intention to kill himself.

She didn't understand, and was even more suspicious in her heart, but she didn't dare to ask any more questions because she could feel that His Majesty had indeed harbored murderous thoughts towards her just now.

"Get up." After a while, Zheng Chenggong's murderous intent disappeared quietly and he suddenly said.

"Thank you Lord for your kindness." When the woman with sore legs and legs heard this, she felt happy and hurriedly thanked her.

"Your Majesty, King Xiaoyao and General Qin are asking for an audience." The atmosphere in Yuxu had just temporarily eased when a guard's voice suddenly came from outside Yuxu.

"King Xiaoyao is here?" Zheng Chenggong suddenly opened his eyes, sat upright, and asked with a somewhat surprised expression.

"Yes, Your Majesty." The guard outside Yushu said with a very firm tone.

"Stop driving, I want to see him in person." Zheng Chenggong ordered without hesitation, with a hint of joy on his face. When the Yuxu stopped, he adjusted his clothes slightly, quickly got out of the Yuxu, and

Before leaving, he glanced meaningfully at the young and beautiful woman, and said calmly, "You can talk about anyone behind anyone's back, but except for King Xiaoyao, otherwise you will definitely be worse than death, forever."

You will not be reincarnated." Before he finished speaking, his figure had already left gracefully.

"Did you guess wrong?" The young and beautiful woman stared blankly at Zheng Chenggong's departing figure and murmured to herself. She never thought that her guess was actually not wrong. As a high-ranking emperor, Zheng Chenggong

He is the legitimate leader of a country, so naturally he doesn't like having someone who always puts pressure on his head in terms of prestige and power.

Like it or not, Zheng Chenggong knows that the Xia Dynasty empire can live without anyone, even if he is the emperor, but Zhang Huaming cannot live without him. He still deeply remembers his father's warning to him, and Zhang Huaming leaves everything to him.

, as long as he opens his mouth, he, as the emperor, will be fully satisfied. There must be no hesitation or hesitation, let alone evil thoughts towards Zhang Huaming, otherwise sooner or later, he will definitely die in an ugly way.

Zheng Chenggong knows better than anyone how powerful Zhang Huaming is. He is definitely someone who cannot be provoked.

In front of the Imperial Guards in front of the Imperial Guard, Zhang Huaming, Qin Xiaotian, and Zheng Xiaohu were looking up at Zheng Chenggong, who was full of overlord aura and striding towards them and others.

"The humble ministers are here to see your majesty." When Zhang Huaming and the others saw Zheng Chenggong, they knelt down.

Seeing this, Zheng Chenggong hurriedly held Zhang Huaming with both hands, and said with a slightly excited expression: "King Xiaoyao, there is no need to be polite."

When Zheng Chenggong named him King Xiaoyao, he specifically said that there was no need to salute when meeting the Holy Emperor, to show the honor given to Zhang Huaming by the emperor and the Xia Dynasty Empire.

With Zhang Huaming's current identity and status, it is naturally impossible for him to really kneel down to Zheng Chenggong. He was just pretending to satisfy Zheng Chenggong's vanity as the emperor, and at the same time let everyone present know that King Xiaoyao

Although his status was respected in the Xia Dynasty empire, he was neither arrogant nor impetuous and still respected him as the emperor.

"Your Majesty came all the way to the Wuzhi Mountains to cheer for Wei Chen Xuantian Sect's founding ceremony. Wei Chen is deeply grateful. Thank you for your kindness." Zhang Huaming stood up straight and said.

"Haha, why should King Xiaoyao be so polite? I was just a little bored staying in the palace. I also heard that hundreds of thousands of martial arts practitioners came to participate in the Xuantian Sect's founding ceremony. The event was unprecedented, so I came out specially to have a look. King Xiaoyao

You don’t need to take it to heart.” Zheng Chenggong laughed loudly.

Although Zheng Chenggong said this, both Zhang Huaming and Qin Xiaotian knew that this was just what he said deliberately, and they did not expose it at the moment. Everyone understood it in their hearts.

With Zhang Huaming and others around, it was naturally impossible for Zheng Chenggong to return to Yuhu, so the three of them walked side by side all the way back to the Wuzhi Mountains, chatting from time to time about major military and national affairs, or about trivial household matters.

When they arrived at the Wuzhi Mountains, some sharp-eyed people saw Zheng Chenggong's huge team and the flag of the Xia Dynasty flying in the team, and they quickly exclaimed: "The Emperor of the Xia Dynasty is here."

For a moment, everyone was startled and looked back. Sure enough, they saw a quite large and extremely gorgeous team heading towards the Wuzhi Mountains. There were martial arts practitioners from the Xia Dynasty Empire who recognized Zheng Chenggong's appearance.

, he could tell at a glance that Zheng Chenggong beside Zhang Huaming was the current emperor of the Xia Dynasty, so he knelt down quickly to pick him up.

Although most martial arts practitioners do not pay attention to ordinary people, the emperor is the supreme ruler of all people and has a noble status that these martial arts practitioners cannot compare to.

"I didn't expect that even the emperor of the Xia Dynasty Empire would come. It seems that the rumors are true. The leader of Xuantian Sect is indeed Xiaoyao King Zhang Huaming." People looked in the direction of Zheng Chenggong and started talking.

"You only know it now, and you don't even know how powerful our Xia Dynasty empire is, especially His Majesty and King Xiaoyao. They have a deep relationship and are like brothers. How could such a big thing as King Xiaoyao's founding of a sect be neglected by His Majesty?" From Xia

The martial arts practitioners from the Chao Empire heard this and said proudly.

"You haven't seen it yet, right? The man standing next to His Majesty the Emperor is the Xiaoyao King of our Xia Dynasty Empire, the most popular Xuantian Sect Zhang Huaming." People who have seen Zhang Huaming pointed at Zhang Huaming.

vocal tract.

"It turns out that he is Zhang Huaming. He is really a master." Everyone was surprised and looked at Zhang Huaming with great curiosity. After all, he is a bigger figure than Zheng Chenggong, the emperor, and more mysterious than him. Especially this time

The owner of Xuantian Sect's founding ceremony was naturally the focus of everyone's attention.

"Of course, otherwise, how could he have conquered a large area of ​​territory for the Xia Dynasty Empire at such a young age, and also threatened to create the Xuantian Sect, the most powerful sect in history."

"You're not Zhang Huaming, why are you so proud?"

"Damn, we are all common people of the Xia Dynasty Empire. I am naturally proud of such a big man. Why, you are unhappy and bite me. Otherwise, you can also go to your country to find such a powerful person for me.

Take a look."

…

The arrival of Emperor Zheng Chenggong of the Xia Dynasty undoubtedly pushed the founding ceremony of the Xuantian Sect to a climax. People were happily talking about the glorious deeds of Zheng Chenggong and Zhang Huaming in the past, as well as the future relationship between the Xuantian Sect and the Xia Dynasty Empire.

relationship between.

"Such a grand occasion is indeed rare in a hundred years. King Xiaoyao's current influence is extraordinary." Zheng Chenggong looked at the hundreds of thousands of people present and sighed with emotion. He felt more and more what his father told him back then.

It makes more and more sense. It seems that I will have to deepen the relationship with Zhang Huaming in the future.

"This is just a humble minister that everyone looks down upon. How can he be as good as your Majesty?" Zhang Huaming said modestly.

"Well, King Xiaoyao doesn't have to be so self-effacing. Facts speak louder than words. Everyone has seen all this. If you are any more modest, you will be underestimating yourself." Zheng Chenggong said with a hearty laugh.

The two were chatting and laughing, complimenting each other, when suddenly a member of the Langya Team walked up to Zheng Xiaohu, whispered a few words in his ear, and then left immediately.
