At this moment, the shock in Zhou Yi's heart was no less than Shangguan Wan 'er's.
She couldn't help but size up Ji Xiao again and again, her beautiful eyes shining brightly.
Zhou Yi had never imagined that Ji Xiao was not only a peerless genius in the martial arts, but his ability to make deductions was also so stunning!
"If he joins the Guard Division, he'll probably be able to establish an intelligence network that covers the entire Immortal Martial Continent in less than ten years.”
Then, the three of them chatted and laughed as the hotpot came to an end.
Ji Xiao wanted this kind of cheerful atmosphere, and a long-lost warmth rose in his heart.
"Big Brother Ji, see you next time."
Shangguan Wan 'er's clear eyes stared at Ji Xiao as she smiled.
Zhou Yi was very surprised. She had known Shangguan Wan 'er for half a year, but this was the first time she had seen her smile at a man.
Could it be that Ji Xiao really had some kind of magic?
"Next time you come, I'll treat you to Buddha Jumps Over The Wall Soup."”
"Buddha jumps over the wall? It sounds delicious." Zhou Yi's eyes lit up.
"Alright, it's a deal!" Shangguan Wan 'er's voice was light.
When they returned to the bedroom, the two women changed.
One of them changed into an imperial robe, while the other changed into a purple leather jacket embroidered with a four-clawed flood dragon.
"Your Majesty, Wan 'er has a request.”
Shangguan Wan 'er gritted her teeth and mustered up her courage to speak.
"Say it." Zhou Yi said.
Shangguan Wan 'er said," Wan' er feels that Ji Xiao has great talent. Such a talent should not be buried in the imperial kitchen."”
"You think so too?" Zhou Yi's eyes lit up.”
Shangguan Wan 'er nodded.
"In terms of surveillance and investigation, Wan 'er has never been convinced by anyone in her life. This time, however, she is completely convinced by Ji Xiao.
His Majesty really had sharp eyes to discover such a talent in the imperial kitchen.
Therefore, Wan 'er implored His Majesty to let Ji Xiao join the Guard Division!”
Zhou Yi sighed softly.
"Even if I agree, Ji Xiao will not be willing. He is more indifferent and does not like fame and fortune.
You might not know this, but Ji Xiao's talent is far beyond this.”
Shangguan Wan 'er's eyes were filled with surprise.
From what His Majesty meant, Brother Ji had other superb abilities?
"If I can persuade Big Brother Ji to join the Guard Division, His Majesty will definitely see me in a new light.”
Shangguan Wan 'er nodded her head as she thought of this. She had decided to go to Ji Xiao without His Majesty knowing.
The next day,
Zhou Yi left the morning court session and went to Duke Zhenguo's Public House at Zhou Yuanying's invitation.
Zhou Yuanying had already broken through to the Supreme Realm twenty years ago. Now, his cultivation had reached the peak of the Supreme Realm.
Although he was almost sixty years old, he looked like a strong man in his forties.
He had a muscular body, dark skin, and a face that was as sharp as a knife and axe, showing off his masculinity.
The Duke Zhenguo's Public House was naturally honored by the empress's presence.
The two hundred people of the Zhou family, big and small, were all sitting in the courtyard, raising their glasses and drinking to celebrate the birth of the little prince.
There was only one table in the main hall of the Public House.
Zhou Yi sat at the head of the table with Shangguan Wan 'er standing behind him.
Zhou Yuanying sat on the right.
He had invited Zhou Yi in the name of the Zhou family's banquet, so he did not invite the prime minister and the general.
"Your Majesty, do you know why the Ba Shu Dynasty dares to launch a large-scale attack this time?”
Zhou Yi's expression was indifferent." At first, I thought Liu Bei wanted to take advantage of the late Emperor's death to take advantage of the situation. Now, it seems that there might be the shadow of the Tang Empire behind him."”
There were a total of six empires on the Immortal Martial Continent. They were the true supreme forces that ruled this world.
Even the powerful Great Zhou Dynasty was dependent on the Great Qin Empire and depended on its existence.
The Great Tang Empire bordered the Great Qin Empire!
The head of the Tang Empire, the Human Emperor Li Shimin, had already become a Saint Venerable two hundred years ago!
Li Shi Min's younger brother, the Golden Roc Grand Sage, Li Yuanba, was also a famous killing god!
There were also rumors that Li Shimin's father, Li Yuan, had not passed away. Instead, he was hiding in the palace. It was very likely that he had already reached the Tenth Sky of the Martial Saint Realm and possessed the terrifying strength of the Emperor-to-be Realm!
" That's right," Zhou Yuanying said." Without the Tang Emperor's instructions, how could the Liquor Sword Immortal and Wan Rentu dare to interfere in the war between the two dynasties?"”
"What exactly are you trying to say?" Zhou Yi asked indifferently.”
"Your Majesty, I've recently received reliable news that the Great Tang Empire is preparing to launch a war of national annihilation against the Great Qin Empire!”
He took a deep breath and said word by word,"The Ba Shu Dynasty's attack is just a test of Great Qin!”
Zhou Yi's eyes flashed as his mind raced.
The Great Zhou Dynasty was located at the border between the two empires. It was like a natural barrier for the Great Qin Empire to guard against the Great Tang Empire.
If the Great Tang Empire were to wage war, it would definitely crush the Great Zhou Dynasty.
In the current Great Qin Empire, Qin Shi Huang and Lu Buwei were fighting for power, and the entire country was in chaos!
If war broke out, they would not be able to take care of themselves and would not be able to lend a helping hand to the Great Zhou.
Zhou Yi rubbed his temples. He did not know what to do.
"Your Majesty, have you considered leading the Great Zhou to submit to the Great Tang Empire and act as the vanguard?"
"Impudent!"
Zhou Yi's pretty face darkened, as if a layer of frost had covered her face.
"Since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it has been passed down for ten thousand years. How can we submit just like that?”
When Zhou Yuanying heard this, he wasn't angry. Instead, he was delighted.
"Hehe, you all heard it. This little girl is not willing to submit. The position of emperor should be left to me!”
As soon as he finished speaking, in the courtyard of the Duke's estate, the two hundred people of the Zhou family who were drinking and eating stopped.
A gust of wind blew past, and the figures of these two hundred people disappeared with the wind.
The originally lively courtyard was strangely quiet and deserted.
Zhou Yi's expression was calm as she reached out her slender hand, picked up her wine cup, and took a sip.
"Do you think I can't see that these people are all illusions?”
"So what if you see it?" Zhou Yuanying said coldly.”
Behind him, two identical young men wearing blood-red robes and pale faces appeared.
Shangguan Wan 'er's expression changed drastically when she saw this.
" Killing countless people? Xue Luo Duo Demons?"
The Xue Luo Duo Demons 'emotionless gazes swept across the faces of the two women.
The next moment, the two of them turned around and bowed respectfully.
From the shadows, a sickly, skinny man walked out, holding a pair of golden hammers in his hands.
This time, even Zhou Yi's expression changed.
It was the Golden Roc Grand Sage, Li Yuanba!
