Douluo: Thousand Miles of Practice - Chapter 288
c288 Section 288
The outer wall of Tiandou City was already in sight, and Ning Rongrong met Zhu Zhuqing again.
Zhu Zhuqing arrived outside Tiandou City but did not enter the city. At this time, Tiandou City was almost a den of dragons and tigers, and several Title Douluo of Haotian Sect were in it.
There were also benefits to being outside the city. She saw a title-level strongman bringing Dugu Yan into Tiandou City.
“It turned out to be like this…” This matter was actually a good thing in Ning Rongrong’s view. Dugu Yan’s nonsense seemed to say something, but in fact, she said nothing. “It seems that Sister Yanzi is still valuable! I can ask a lot of things clearly!”
Qianshui on the side rolled his eyes. He had finally understood these days that this girl did not bring any high-end combat power and rode into Tiandou City alone. She really wanted to lure him out.
At this time, Qianshui was already thinking about whether to take the opportunity to slip away. After all, Dugu Yan knew his true identity.
But he changed his mind and thought, don’t let this girl really play him to death. He still has to keep this bottom, and he really can’t leave.
‘But let’s go home and take a look first, there seems to be something wrong with my little apprentice.’ After thinking about it, Qianshui felt that something seemed wrong with the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire, and his soul left his body and went home.
At this time, Ning Rongrong sent a voice message to Zhu Zhuqing, and then took Qian Qingyu into the city, “Hong’er, let’s go, let’s go see your grandfather!”
Unfortunately, she met someone she didn’t want to see in front of the city gate.
Chapter 310 Ning Rongrong enters the palace city and calls a sheep a horse
To reach Tiandou City from Soto City, you need to leave the territory of the Kingdom of Barak first, and then cross the entire territory of the Kingdom of Silves to the north of the Kingdom of Barak before you can enter the imperial city circle of the Tiandou Empire.
Going east again, it is the location of the imperial city of the Tiandou Empire. The whole journey is long. The land area of the original Tiandou Empire is large enough. Ning Rongrong drove nearly two thousand miles along the way, and he was exhausted all the way without stopping.
If it weren’t for the roads that Xue Qinghe insisted on building, they would never arrive so quickly.
From afar, one can already see the city head with fluttering flags, the city wall as high as 100 meters, and the soldiers patrolling and standing guard everywhere, each of them wearing full armor and holding a spear.
The tall city gate is large enough for six horses to ride side by side, and there are two secondary gates next to it. Under normal circumstances, pedestrians can only enter through the secondary gates, and the main gate in the middle is closed.
But today seems different. The city gate in the middle is opened, and several teams of hundreds of people are stationed on both sides of the city gate. Except for the emperor and his officials welcoming them, this is already the highest standard of welcoming etiquette.
The people who were stopped cast curious eyes one after another, not only because the long-lost main gate was open, but also because of the people they were welcoming.
“Is that His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince?”
“Hey, do you know, the last time this main gate was opened was because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince went out of the city to attack and destroy the Xingluo Empire…”
“Be careful! There is no His Royal Highness the Crown Prince now!”
The gossips of the people are often very accurate. None of the big figures who left Tiandou City in recent years have returned, so this city gate will naturally not be opened.
Is this girl driving a strange car, with three children and a sheep, really worth such a high standard?
Soon, the girl stopped the car, took off her blue helmet, and let out her long flowing hair.
When she put the soul guide into the space soul guide, someone recognized her when she stood still, “Isn’t this the young lady of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect?”
But the heavy-armored hundred-man team on both sides gave everyone a bigger surprise. They all knelt on one knee and shouted, “Meet the Supreme Archon!”
When Ning Rongrong’s identity was confirmed, almost all the ordinary people who were watching the excitement also saluted Ning Rongrong and said, “Meet the Supreme Commander!”
What made Ning Rongrong stop was the avalanche that stopped Ning Rongrong in the middle of the road.
But Xue Beng performed a peer etiquette towards Ning Rongrong, his face full of smiles, this smile is full of flattery, “Rongrong, you are back?”
But Ning Rongrong, with a serious expression, ignored Xue Beng, took the three children and walked straight into Tiandou City without paying any attention to Xue Beng.
When walking past Xue Beng, Ning Rongrong used her soul power to carry her crisp voice almost all over Tiandou City, “The executive order is as follows! Grandson Xue Hong returns to the imperial city today, and Tiandou City will be blocked immediately to prevent scoundrels!”
The originally frozen smile of Xue Beng changed color in an instant, and turned around. The city guards and the people responded with “yes” and the surrender resounded through the sky. He looked at the blonde Qian Qingyu beside Ning Rongrong with a very sinister face.
Ordinary people may not know the identity of such a girl who drove back in a low-key manner at first,
but when they knew that she was the highest governor who was in charge of the military and political power of almost the entire continent, everyone recognized her from the bottom of their hearts.
This status does not even require the emperor’s approval, it is based on her actual command of the war of unification.
In the eyes of the world, she took over the military and political affairs of the entire empire on her own after Xue Qinghe’s sudden death, suppressed all turmoil, and avoided civil strife.
It was she who personally besieged Xingluo City and defeated Dai Mubai’s 500,000 troops.
In the eyes of the world, this battlefield flower perfectly inherited the wisdom of her sister and brother-in-law, and established her unshakable position in an extremely reasonable and comfortable way. Even if the emperor came, he could not take away everything she already had.
Ning Rongrong didn’t know what Xue Beng was up to. She had no intention of making such a big fuss, but it was already her subconscious choice to do things that displeased the enemy.
What is Xue Bang unhappy about? Who is Xiaoxiao from Tiandou City?
If he wants power, he must declare his existence in front of everyone and use higher power to take away the things he cares about most.
Qian Shui, who was following him, smiled happily. This girl had really grown up. With the help of others, she could suppress the power of one person, and an administrative order could make those who faced her bow.
Although the actual power is still controlled by officials at various points, if you want to control this city, it is not enough to have a high reputation. If you don’t have anyone to help you, it will be in vain.
But what Ning Rongrong wants to do is not control Tiandou City. All she wants is the momentum.
Stepping on the jade steps leading to the palace hall, Ning Rongrong felt like she was ascending to the pinnacle of power step by step. “No wonder the emperor always likes palaces that are high up. This simple building alone can intimidate people.” ”
It’s not like she has never been to the palace before. When Ning Rongrong was a child, she felt that the palace was extremely boring. It was built so big just for viewing, and it was not fun at all.
When she came here again, she had another identity. Miyagi became synonymous with uselessness in her eyes, and only the boredom never changed.
When she passed the last step and arrived in front of the main hall, where she could see all the officials, Ning Rongrong looked back at the huge Tiandou City behind her, “I once thought that if I have to work hard, I must be better than my sister. I won’t be bullied by her again. But when I get to this position step by step, where will she be?”
A trace of moisture brewed in her eyes, and her thoughts were extremely complicated at this moment. She remembered the time when she was suppressed by Ning Huahun outside Soto City and was lectured until she had nothing to say.
I also thought of my later cultivation and the slapstick in life.
Ning Huahua and Xue Qinghe had left too much in her soul, and in the end they pushed her to the pinnacle of power in the entire continent, but at what cost?
Being alone is not nonsense. The closer you get to the center of power, the fewer your friends will be and the more enemies you will have, just like the ministers looking at you with different expressions and Emperor Xue Ye on the golden steps.
At this moment, Ning Rongrong had to face a court without any friends.
However, what Ning Rongrong didn’t know was that she had never had fewer friends. Even if she was so willful that day, her ‘sister’ was still standing by her side.
I don’t even dare to breathe out a single breath, I’m so scared to death~
Xue Beng in the side hall was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. Excluding his desire for power, he really liked Ning Rongrong, “What on earth does she want to do?! So what if the child is Xue Hong!” Is she going to force herself into the palace?”
Tang San on the side finally had an expression and frowned, “I don’t know, but one thing can be confirmed. If a person dares to challenge the Supreme Emperor, excluding her from mental disorder, then she is confident and there is someone behind her.”
“Didn’t you say there was no one behind her?! It’s just that she entered Tiandou City alone!” Xue Beng could no longer think clearly.
Tang San pointed far away in the direction where Dugu Yan was being held, and reminded him, “Did you forget that Dugu Yan let Oscar go? Who knows what she said.”
“You mean they know that Rongrong knows that Xue Qinghe is Qian Shui or Qian Renxue, so she can take Xue Hong back?”
“I’m afraid there is no such thing. If you were Qian Daoliu, and you were Bibi Dong, you could care about Ning Rongrong’s life or death, but would you care about Qian Renxue’s child?”
Xue Beng’s pupils shrank and he took a breath of cold air, “The reason why we can’t find anything is because Peerless Douluo arrived in Tiandou City?”
“It’s possible.” Tang San said this but did not reveal all his speculations.
Qian Shui spent a lot of effort to get his son to return to the Spirit Hall in the Continental Senior Soul Master Elite Tournament, and later killed Xue Qinghe and Ning Huahua, allowing his whole family to escape. How could he take the initiative to enter the game again?
There must have been other variables here, which is why the situation turned into what it is today. They first created a seemingly huge incident to cover up their true purpose.
For example, they want to save Dugu Yan!
Thinking of this, Tang San whispered a few words to Xue Beng and left.
In the front hall, Xue Ye was sitting on the golden steps. His eyes were extremely deep, as if he was declaring his authority and saying that he was still a dragon even though he was old.
The internal official beside Xue Ye was summoning, “Xuan, Ning Rongrong comes to the palace to see you!”
But what is surprising is that when Ning Rongrong was summoned by the internal officials, Ning Rongrong was already standing in the main hall with three children and a sheep, looking directly at the emperor Xue Ye.
As the saying goes, the emperor is not in a hurry while eunuchs are in a hurry, “Ning Rongrong! You are so rude! The Qibao Glazed Sect taught you this! You even brought the sheep to the Golden Palace!”
The official seemed to have been stimulated by something, and the emperor didn’t say anything about it, as if it was a challenge to his authority.
But now that someone has broken the silence, that’s great.
Not long ago, Ning Rongrong rode into Tiandou City alone. At this time, the civil and military officials in the Golden Palace had already known about it, and they were all looking at Ning Rongrong. After the official’s magical speech, as expected, Ning Rongrong raised her eyebrows. The corners of her mouth made her pretty face even more beautiful.
But these old fritters are not all aristocrats who fall in love with women when they see them. Many of them have a sense of instant recognition. Ning Rongrong, who was twenty years old at the time, looked very much like the crazy crown princess back then!
Smiling Ning Rongrong smiled beautifully, pointing at the sheep with square eyes, “Oh? You said it’s a sheep?”
The eunuch looked like you’re kidding me, and said firmly: “Of course it’s a sheep!”
“Oh~ So, eunuch admitted his mistake, this is a thousand-mile horse~”
Ning Rongrong still pointed her finger at the ‘thousand-mile horse’ in the hall, and smiled warmly while speaking.
Accompanied by the ‘thousand-mile horse’ “baa” cry, Xue Ye and the civil and military officials saw the thousand-mile horse she pointed at, but their breath was stagnant.
At this time, even Xue Ye’s expression began to become ferocious, and the wrinkles on his face wrinkled together, as black as the bottom of a pot, obviously he was extremely angry!
In the hall, the civil and military officials also fell into silence.
The whole golden hall was silent, and a pin drop on the ground could be heard clearly.
Most of the officials standing in the back lowered their heads, without any intention of coming forward.
“Ning Rongrong! You are so brave!” The most ironic thing happened. The eunuch was the only one who stood up.
Even Ning Rongrong admired him a little, but who made you the first bird?
Yellow, purple, black, black, seven soul rings were neatly arranged around Ning Rongrong, and the soul pressure of the soul saint level suddenly descended on the Golden Palace.
In front of all the officials and Xue Ye, the eunuch’s knees softened with a loud thump, and he knelt in front of Ning Rongrong in public.
“Eunuch, did you see it wrong just now? This is a thousand-mile horse, right?”
The eunuch dared not say more, and knocked his forehead on the bright floor tiles of the Golden Palace, “Yes! Yes! This is a thousand-mile horse!”
As Ning Rongrong’s eyes swept across all the civil and military officials in the Golden Palace, the echoes finally sounded one after another.
“Rongrong! Stop it!”
Xue Ye suppressed his anger and finally had to speak, but he looked like coaxing a child.
Ning Rongrong has faced too many such simple games. Even her father couldn’t make her bow her head. What else do you want to do as an empty emperor? Make her bow her head in the tone of an elder teaching a younger generation?
At this time, Ning Rongrong seemed to have returned to the coquettish appearance of the little devil. She said to Xue Ye in a coquettish tone: “Oh, your majesty must be wise and brave! You must have a keen eye! I wonder if you think this is a ‘thousand-mile horse’ or a sheep?”
Xue Ye has been the emperor for so many years, and it’s not in vain. At this time, he answered Ning Rongrong’s question, which was the trap of the other party, so he just shouted: “Rongrong!”
Since Xue Ye didn’t take the bait, Ning Rongrong also calmed down, still maintaining the look of looking at Xue Ye when he first entered the Golden Palace.
At this time, all the officials were sober and completely understood that this was the silent game between the world’s most powerful minister and the supreme emperor!
“Your Majesty, until now, you are not even willing to call me the Supreme Consul?”
