Chapter 56: Particularly Ugly! (4k)
Zhao Yi was not surprised by the failure of Xuan Zhen Guan and the Sovereign’s Palace’s pursuit.
Just kidding.
That was the male lead!
The main character’s aura is no joke!
If it was so easy to get him killed, how could Zhao Yi endure him for so long?
Let’s not talk about the male lead.
Didn’t Su Shanshan also fail to die no matter how hard he worked?
Although Myriad Sound Realist was puzzled, he still didn’t put the male lead in his heart.
She was qualified to ignore the male lead.
Not to mention that the male lead was only a mere second-stage Kaiyuan realm cultivator, even if he was in the ninth-stage Saint King realm, he was not enough to look at in front of the Xuanzhen Guan and the Sovereign’s House!
Miaoyin Makoto sat up from the soft couch and stretched, revealing the proud curves wrapped inside her wide dao robe.
She looked at Zhao Yi and said cheerfully, ”Willing to bet, willing to lose! I’ll listen to whatever plan you have next!”
Zhao Yi nodded in satisfaction.
He glanced at the hour and said to Miaoyin Zhenren, “General Zuo Luo is entering the city today, so let’s go take a look and see what this Famous Northern Border Female God of War looks like before we make plans!”
Myriad Truly said noncommittally, “You look after yourself, anyway, I just promised you to help you cover up, I don’t care if something happens at that time.”
“Don’t worry, nothing can happen!” Zhao Yi said with confidence, “I know best how to make women hate me!”
Zhao Yi didn’t do nothing during this time.
Before Awakening, Zhao Yi had been busy licking Su Shanshan, and hadn’t paid too much attention to the winds of Shengjing City.
Recently, he heard that the Empress was interested in letting him get matched with Zuo Xiaoluo, and only then did Zhao Yi remember to send someone to investigate Zuo Xiaoluo’s intelligence.
I don’t know if I didn’t check, but I was shocked when I did.
From the news collected by his men, Zhao Yi keenly discovered a lot of unusual things.
Last winter, the Armor Breaker Army completely annihilated the barbarians and demonic beasts that went south to hit the Grass Valley.
Zuo Xiaoluo made great achievements and was promoted to Great General of Zhenbei.
Now it’s spring, and it’s almost April.
The city of Shengjing is suddenly full of rumors about General Zuo Luo’s achievements.
It’s obvious.
This is someone’s way of giving General Zuo Luo a name.
General Zuo Luo’s reputation in Shengjing has skyrocketed, and many people have even begun to call her the “Great Xia Female God of War”.
There must be a demon in everything that goes wrong!
Although Zhao Yi didn’t find out the source of the rumor, he could easily guess that the Empress was behind it.
Naturally, Zhao Yi would not sit still and wait for death.
General Zuo Luo’s ceremony is the most talked about and hot event in Shengjing.
Zhao Yi wanted to suppress General Zuo Luo’s heat, and confrontation was definitely not an option.
It could only be to create another hotspot and then use the new hotspot event to divert the attention of the people of Shengjing City.
Then, Zhao Yi single-handedly planned the auspicious treasure offering incident.
This incident was a temporary idea that Zhao Yi had when he went to the Western Mountain and saw the group of strange beasts.
He originally just wanted to give it a try, but he didn’t expect that it would work surprisingly well.
As soon as the auspicious treasure offering incident came out, the entire Shengjing City was sensationalized.
It completely overpowered General Zuo Luo’s popularity!
The person Huang Ying sent out to spy on the news came back to report.
The people of Shengjing are talking about the beasts, and the rumor of “Auspicious Treasure Offerings, Heavenly Sage” has already spread in the streets and alleys.
Zhao Yi was not surprised by this result.
Human nature is like that.
People were always harsh on the good guys and forgiving of the evil ones.
A good man who has done good things all his life will immediately lose his reputation if he does one bad thing.
An evil person who has done bad things all his life can become a Buddha as soon as he puts down the butcher’s knife.
Zhao Yi’s previous reputation in Shengjing City, due to the fact that he had been kneeling and licking Su Shanshan, everyone in the city spat on him, and he was almost on the verge of becoming the laughing stock of the royal family.
How could such a person even have an auspicious offering?
Such a big contrast was bound to explode into a huge heat.
As for auspiciousness?
Zhao Yi felt that the people of Shengjing City were all just watching as a hilarious spectacle.
In their hearts.
The odds were that they wouldn’t believe that there was really such a thing!
Either that or they are bowing down to the auspicious.
And not after feeding the Fae.
Waiting for Xiangrui to kowtow to themselves and then promoting their own industry in the process.
There were auspicious beings in the Daxia Dynasty before.
Those immortals in the Immortal Cultivation World who flew through the sky and lived forever were auspicious.
Immortals were above mortals, enjoying the offerings of mortals and taking whatever they wanted from mortals.
Later, Zhao rose to power.
“The myth that immortals could not be humiliated was shattered by the madmen of the Grand Xia Dynasty.
From then on.
Whether it’s an immortal cultivation sect or a monk’s temple, all of them have clamped their tails and become human beings.
There were no more miracles on this continent.
The scene outside the city gates, Zhao Yi believed that many people just watched it as fun.
There wasn’t much entertainment these days, so it was hard to come out with a good time, so naturally the whole city was a sensation.
But Zhao Yi didn’t care.
Wasn’t General Zuo Luo’s reputation also speculated?
The people of Shengjing City had never even seen barbarians or demonic beasts.
How could they know what the concept of General Zuo Luo wiping out the barbarian army was?
However, this didn’t affect their ability to blow up General Zuo Luo.
Just like blowing Zhao Yi now.
Auspicious offering of treasure, heavenly gift of a wise ruler.
After this round of hype, Zhao Yi is now considered a reputable person.
It’s not as if he’s been passive in response to the Empress’ offense.
Even if Zhao Yi refuses to match with General Zuo Luo in the future, she won’t be criticized and blamed one way or the other.
Rather, they would feel that General Zuo Luo might not really be suitable to be the Crown Princess!
Hearing Zhao Yi’s words, Miaoyin Zhenran said, “Did you learn your experience from Su Shanshan?”
She nodded her head in affirmation, “Then you learned it successfully!”
Zhao Yi: “……”
Solid, old iron!
Zhao Yi couldn’t explain that he was being controlled before and had been passively going through the plot.
But where he still had a bit of sense.
It was impossible to do that kind of brainless kneeling thing!
Zhao Yi glanced at the hour and changed the topic, “General Zuo Luo should be entering the city soon, let’s go greet him.”
General Zuo Luo is returning to the capital this time to accept the title of Great General of the Northern Border.
According to etiquette, Zhao Yi, the Crown Prince, should go out of the city to greet him.
But although Zhao Yi crown prince’s edict came down, the old emperor in the palace disappeared, and the great rite of enthronement of the crown prince has not been able to organize.
Therefore, although Zhao Yi has the reality of a crown prince, he does not have the name of a crown prince.
So the one who went out of the city to greet General Zuo Luo became the eldest prince Zhao Coronation.
When Zhao Yi and Miaoyin Zhenzhen arrived at the north city gate, they happened to see Zhao Coronation’s imperial carriage returning from outside the city.
Zhao Coronation was seated with a stern face.
Despite the bumpy carriage ride, his body didn’t sway half a bit.
His demeanor was solemn.
Curmudgeonly like an old scholar!
Zhao Yi was a jumpy nature and was most afraid of an old curmudgeon like Zhao Coronation.
Especially after Zhao Coronation’s Mad Dragon Feat became a minor success.
He gradually started to go crazy.
The requirements for etiquette and grooming also became more and more perverted!
Sensing Zhao Yi’s gaze, Zhao Coronet raised his eyes and saw him leaning against the wall, and his brows furrowed.
Zhao Yi was instantly like an electric shock, his body instantly tensed up.
Eyes on the nose, nose on the mouth, mouth on the heart.
There was no sadness or joy, an attitude of a Taoist master who looked down on the world and was not shocked by favors and disgraces.
Zhao Coronation gave him an expressionless look and then looked at the Myriad Sound Reality.
Realist Miao Yin was carrying a roasted chicken in his hand and gnawing on it.
When he saw Zhao Coronation looking over, he even held up the roasted chicken and greeted him.
When Zhao Guan saw this, a pair of good-looking sword eyebrows instantly twisted into a “Chuan” character.
When Zhao Yi saw him fidgeting, his eyes revealed a look of amusement.
He had been tolerating the two for a long time.
If they fought here, Zhao Yi would go back and set off firecrackers!
But Zhao Yi was disappointed.
After Zhao Coronation looked at the Myriad Sound Realist in a bad light, he instead just turned his head away.
Out of sight, out of mind.
When Zhao Yi saw this, he couldn’t help but skim his lips.
He thought that the Boss had really gone crazy.
Now it seemed to be wimpy.
The Myriad Sound Realist didn’t notice anything unusual about Zhao Coronation.
She bumped Zhao Yi with her shoulder and raised her eyes to ask, “What do you think of General Zuo Luo?”
Zhao Yi sniffed and followed her gaze.
After Grand Prince Zhao Coronation’s carriage, General Zuo Luo’s personal guard battalion started to enter the city.
At the head of the battalion was a huge “meat mountain”!
The woman was at least eight feet tall, her waist was fat and strong, and her arms were thicker than Zhao Yi’s thighs!
Her head was as big as a fan, and her hair was shaved all around, leaving only a handful of withered yellow braids at the top of her head.
What was most remarkable was her face.
Her face was long and covered with yellow spots.
Triangular eyes, a fluted nose, beckoning ears, buck teeth, split lips, and no eyebrows.
At first glance, it’s a shock.
At second glance, another shock.
Wherever the vanguard battalion passed, the streets were cleared.
The most mischievous children in the past were too scared to go out!
Hearing the words of the Myriad Sound Realist, Zhao Yi said with a solemn expression, “Do you want to hear the truth, or a lie?”
Miao Yin Zhen Zhen said with interest, “How do you say falsehood, and how do you say truth?”
Zhao Yi: “The falsehood is: ugly, but ugly in a very special way, that is, exceptionally ugly! The truth is: the falsehood I just said is actually true.”
Myriad Sound Realist said indistinctly, “Did you know in advance that General Zuo Luo was ugly, and that’s why you didn’t agree to the blind date arranged by the Empress?”
Hearing this, Zhao Yi looked at her like she was a fool, then turned his head toward the city.
Miaoyin Zhenran asked behind her, “Where are you going? Since you’re here, aren’t you going to say hello to General Zuo Luo?”
Zhao Yi didn’t look back and said, “If you want to fight, go fight, I am not interested in greeting a barbarian.”
The Myriad Sound Realist’s figure moved slightly and appeared directly beside Zhao Yi.
She looked at Zhao Yi and asked curiously, “How did you recognize that she’s not General Zuo Luo?”
Zhao Yi didn’t have the heart to say, “White Tiger Sectional Staff!”
“General Zuo Luo is the Northern Border Marshal, wherever she travels, she must be carrying the White Tiger Sectional Staff!”
“I just looked, there’s no White Tiger Sectional Staff in the caravan, and the women on the warbeasts are obvious barbarian features!”
“Even if I were stupid, I wouldn’t mistake a barbarian for the Great Xia Imperial Dynasty’s Great General of Zhenbei!”
Hearing this, Miaoyin Zhenren said unexpectedly, “Not only do you know about the White Tiger Sectional Staff, but you even recognize barbarians?”
When Zhao Yi heard this, he couldn’t help but roll his eyes, “You don’t really think that I’m just a dumbass who can kneel to women, do you?”
Realist Miao Yin raised an eyebrow, “Isn’t that so?”
Zhao Yi’s fists clenched at once.
He now somewhat understood how his boss, Zhao Coronet, felt just now.
So angry!
If it wasn’t for the fact that he couldn’t beat her, he really wanted to beat her up hard!
Zhao Yi took a deep breath and turned around to walk in the opposite direction from the personal guard camp.
The Myriad Sound Realist idly followed him.
When she saw Zhao Yi heading towards the outer city, she asked curiously, “Where are you going?”
“Four Seas Restaurant.”
Zhao Yi explained, “The Four Seas Restaurant has a lot of comings and goings, so it’s the best place to ask for news.”
“Since General Zuo Luo didn’t join the personal guard battalion, he must have already taken an early step into the city.”
“Shengjing City is not small to say the least, but it’s actually not too big to say the least.”
“There’s suddenly an unfamiliar looking woman in the city, someone will definitely notice.”
“Just take a trip to the Four Seas Restaurant and it’ll be easy to find her!”
Four Seas Restaurant?
Miaoyin Zhenren’s eyes lit up, “I’ve heard that the Four Seas Restaurant’s food and wine is one of the best in the world, and that female shopkeeper is your concubine, so can you ask her to cook a few of her specialty dishes for us to try?”
Hearing this, Zhao Yi immediately stumbled on his feet and almost fell.
He looked at Miaoyin Zhenran and said with wide eyes, “Who told you that the female shopkeeper is my concubine?”
“The Second Prince said so.” The Myriad Voice Realist tsked twice, “He got a jar of Rouge Red from your mansion, got drunk, and said something about alcohol, and then everyone knew about it!”
The Myriad Sound Realist bristled, “After the Empress found out about this, she kept praising you for being so good, and said that you’ve grown up and finally know how to wreak havoc on a yellow-flower girl!”
Zhao Yi: “……”
Kissing Brother!
Kissing mother ah!
His reputation was already bad, and now he was completely unable to look good!
Miaoyin Zhengen guessed what was going through his mind and comforted, “Actually, you don’t need to be embarrassed, you already lost your face when you stooped low to please Su Shanshan before!”
Zhao Yi: “……”
Thanks, there’s being comforted.
Zhao Yi stopped talking and walked forward with a stuffy head.
The Myriad Sound Realist laughed and took off the wine jug from his waist, drinking it while following behind.
When he neared the Four Seas Restaurant, Myriad Sound Realist’s footsteps suddenly paused.
Huh?
With a light eek, she put down the wine gourd she was pouring into her mouth and looked over towards the second floor window sill.
At the edge of the windowsill, there sat a delicate young girl in her twenties.
The young girl was wearing a long pink dress, with a wooden hairpin on her head, her delicate and beautiful face was not powdered, and she looked fresh and lovely.
When Miaoyin Zhenren saw that Zuo Xiaoluo, Zuo Xiaoluo also noticed her.
Zuo Xiaoluo’s gaze swept over Miaoyin Zhengrong and didn’t linger on her much, but instead looked at Zhao Yi who was walking in front of her.
Zuo Xiaoluo was first stunned, then her eyes lit up.
She had a look of surprise on her face as she looked at Zhao Yi fondly, her brows and eyes were all smiles, and her bright eyes smiled into a crescent moon.
Zhao Yi didn’t notice the abnormality upstairs.
He saw that Miaoyin Zhenran had stopped and looked back at her, asking suspiciously, “Why don’t you go?”
Miaoyin Zhenran withdrew her gaze from upstairs and shook her head, pouring a mouthful of wine into her mouth with a sigh.
“People are more angry than people!”
Myriad Sound Realist was suddenly very angry and said indignantly, “You’re Heaven’s own son, aren’t you? Otherwise, how could your shit luck be so good? A woman like that would even fall for you, there’s simply no heavenly justice!”
Zhao Yi was baffled by her spray, puzzled like a monk in two feet.
“You’ve gone crazy too?”
