in Chang 'an, the capital of the gods, there is a quiet residence.
This was a restaurant, which was quite famous in Chang 'an.
And behind Tranquil Peace Residence was the first rank sect, Mercy Boathouse.
As a first-rank sect second only to the Four Holy Lands, Kind Boathouse had a deep foundation. On the surface, there were no less than several experts in the Divine Treasure Realm, and the master was an expert in the fifth realm of the Divine Treasure Realm.
In a rather large courtyard behind Calm Peace Residence.
One of them was wearing a white gauze dress and a veil made of white natural silk. Her figure was graceful, and from her eyes, one could tell that she was a beauty of national beauty.
At this moment, this beauty's eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and her appearance was even more likable.
She was the Saintess of Kind Boathouse, Shi Feifei.
A young genius who was only eighteen years old but had already entered the Connate Marrow Cleansing realm.
This time, she came to the Divine Capital to contact the Crown Prince. As the Crown Prince's Consort, she would gain more luck for Kind Boathouse.
The imperial court had 70% of the world's luck.
The remaining 30% would be split among the sacred lands, sects, and aristocratic families.
As a result, the Imperial Court became the focus of the various Holy Lands, sects, and aristocratic families. Of course, even if Shi Feifei became the Crown Princess, she wouldn't be able to take away the fate of the Imperial Court, but she would be able to share a portion of it.
It would definitely increase the luck of Kind Boathouse.
Luck seemed illusory, but it really existed.
"Saintess!" A voice sounded outside the courtyard.
"Come in."
A pleasant voice rang out. Then, the courtyard door was pushed open. The four maids in the courtyard looked over and saw an old man pushing the door open and entering.
This person was the outer sect deacon of Kind Boathouse and was also a Connate Marrow Cleansing realm expert.
When he was about twenty steps away from Shi Feifei, the old man stopped and bowed his head, cupping his hands."Holy Maiden, there is news that the Crown Prince wishes to marry the daughter of Duke of Lu Junji as his wife.”
"His Majesty has already agreed and is preparing to ask the wife of the Duke of Lu for her opinion.”
"Really?" Shi Feifei's eyes lit up, and she sounded surprised. However, she felt that something was wrong and asked again,""Is this true?"
"Oh, this matter has already been confirmed. The wife of the Duke of Lu has already entered the palace by imperial decree.”The old man replied respectfully.
“…….”Shi Fei Fei was silent as she paced back and forth in the courtyard, suppressing her excitement. After a while, she said,""Send a message back to the sect and inform the situation. Master, please make a decision.”
"Yes, this subordinate will obey your orders."
The old man left the courtyard while Shi Fei Fei quickly returned to her room, blocking the four maids outside.
After entering the room, Shi Fei Fei waved her hands vigorously. She didn't make a sound, but her excitement was evident.
As the Saintess of Kind Boathouse, Shi Feifei was proud.
She naturally did not want to marry a man who was destined not to sit on the throne.
For the sake of a small amount of luck, she had married a man with average martial talent like Li Chengqian. This made Shi Feifei very dissatisfied.
However, her master's orders and the continuation of the sect, as someone who had grown up in Kind Boathouse, she could not refuse.
Now that the Crown Prince had other ideas, it was naturally for the best.
…….
In Youzhou, after the official entered the White Cloud City to deliver the decree, Li Lin received the imperial edict and arranged for someone to send this Rank-6 official from Menxia Province to the posthouse. Then, he looked at Zhang Zhao and Fa Zheng.
Li Lin could not figure out what the emperor meant.
"Your Highness, in this subordinate's opinion, this is a good thing.”"With Youzhou under our control, we have hundreds of thousands of troops." This is very important for His Highness 'future development.”
"Your Majesty's intentions, through all these years, this subordinate has also seen some of it. It should be to ease the relationship with Your Highness.”
"This subordinate also thinks so." Fa Zheng also stepped forward to explain,"In addition, there's another reason. It's to nurture an opponent for the other princes.”
"Perhaps, His Majesty wants to arouse the competition of the other princes and then choose the most outstanding and talented prince to inherit the throne hundreds of years later.”
"Xiaozhi has hit the key point." Li Lin's heart suddenly became clear. He looked at Fa Zheng and said,"Normally speaking, the Emperor can still live for a few hundred years. With the Crown Prince's current talent and strength, he won't be able to live past him.”
"Alright, since that's the case, pass the order to Lu Bu and Gao Shun. He ordered Lu Bu to lead the Wolf Cavalry Army and Gao Shun to lead 20,000 soldiers. They set out from Youzhou and took over the city defense as the subordinate of the Governor of Youzhou. The Tianjie Army returned to camp and could not move without orders.”
"In addition, Zibu, you will be the chief historian of the Governor's Office and will be in charge of Youzhou's government affairs.”
"Xiaozhi, stay in White Cloud City and wait for me to return from Youzhou.”
"Here! This subordinate will obey your orders."
An hour later, the 30,000-strong army gathered outside the south gate. Soon after, King Jing's carriage arrived at the south gate under the protection of 1,000 Iron Eagle Guards.
"Greetings, Your Highness!"
The 30,000-strong army placed their hands on their chests and shouted.
"Let's go!"
"Here!"
Following which, Lu Bu led the 10,000 Wolf Cavalry Army as the vanguard and set off toward Youzhou City.
At the rear, Gao Shun led twenty thousand soldiers as the central army and five thousand soldiers as an army.
Because they did not lack warhorses, even the soldiers of the North Manor Army were equipped with warhorses. They could be used as a means of transportation, and their marching speed would increase by a lot.
In less than two hours, the Wolf Cavalry Army had already arrived at Youzhou City.
He saw the dust rising in the distance and heard the thunderous sound of iron hooves knocking on the ground.
The north gate of Youzhou City was closed immediately. The bugle sounded, and the soldiers of the Heavenly Festival Army took action and boarded the city tower. In a short while, they were ready for defense.
The battle troops were gathered at the north gate, ready to charge out at any time.
In the Governor's Office, Li Yi, Luo Cheng, and the others 'expressions changed when they heard the sound of the horn.
Luo Cheng quickly put on his armor and carried the Five-Hook Divine Flying Spear. He led hundreds of Yanyun's 18 cavalrymen to the north gate.
"Greetings, Prince!"
When Luo Cheng reached the north gate, the general immediately greeted him.
"No need."
Luo Cheng, who was dressed in silver armor, reached out to support him. Then, he stood on the city gate tower and looked into the distance.
A moment later, the army's advance stirred up a cloud of dust. Hundreds of cavalrymen were galloping back and forth two miles in front of Youzhou City with flags on their backs.
Not long after, the huge banner with the word "Jing" and the slightly smaller banner with the word "Lu" fluttered in the wind and appeared in the eyes of Luo Cheng, the North Gate Guard General, and the others.
"It's the North Manor Army!"
Luo Cheng and the other generals of the Sky Festival Army were shocked.
"King Jing came personally?" A general said in disbelief.
After all, if King Jing hadn't come personally, the banner with the word " Jing " would not have appeared.
Luo Cheng's expression kept changing when he heard General Tian Jie's exclamation. A moment later, he gritted his teeth and said,""All armies, be on guard. Without military orders, do not act rashly!”
The group of generals looked at each other, then bowed in agreement and went to convey the military order.
Luo Cheng saw General Tian Jie's reaction and his heart sank.
Obviously, the generals of the Heavenly Festival Army did not have the confidence to face the North Manor Army.
