Chapter 313
Time passed quickly, and Shang had no intention of staying at the border with Leng Yufeng for more than half a month. Leng Yufeng’s legs had been numb from the beginning, but now he could feel pain. As long as there was a feeling, it was possible to recover.
Because he received a letter from Huan Mo Che, Shang Tong was not in the mood to explain his whereabouts before leaving for the Fog Nation.
Leng Yufeng did not stop them, but told Shang to be extra careful. Ye Yi Zhe had a virtuous look on his face, making Shang so that he was not in the mood to worry. Before long, he would definitely treat Leng Yu Feng and bring him to find her.
Shang didn’t have the heart to trust Ye Yizhe, so he went to the Mist Country without any worries. He also brought the letter from the Emperor of Shang, the Crown Prince of Shang Country, to pay a visit to the Mist Country’s Emperor.
After all, the Mist Country’s closest princess was preparing to leave for the Shang Kingdom, but they didn’t expect that Prince Shang would personally come to the Mist Country at this time. This made the Mist Emperor feel that the Emperor was expressing his goodwill, so he immediately ordered the envoys and princesses to stop their preparations and wait for the arrival of the Crown Prince of Shang.
However, the Mist Emperor did not prepare for a few days before he received another letter. This was the letter from the Nangong Country, and also the letter from the ruler of the Nangong Country, King Qian. The letter obviously meant that King Qian would personally visit the Mist Country, and would arrive soon.
This time, the Mist Emperor was truly shocked. It had to be known that the other country had an extremely strong curiosity about this king who had the power over the Nangong Country and was unwilling to ascend to the throne, but this king, other than dealing with matters of the country in the imperial court, had no other news about him. However, the matter of Prince Qian’s imperial sister marrying the close subordinate of the Crown Prince of Shang still surprised everyone. At the same time, they understood the friendship between the two countries.
However, no matter how surprised Mist Country was, they still accepted the letter of credence and waited for the arrival of the king. The Mist Country also knew that the Crown Prince of Shang and King Qian of Nangong Country were coming. The entire Mist Country’s imperial palace was bustling with activity. People gossiped about it, not to mention these two were legendary figures.
The happiest person in the Mist Country’s imperial palace was Han Xuanhao. Although he had told Shang Guanhao about the results of his investigations in the Mist Country, he had not expected Shang Guanwu to come here personally after reading the news, and thought that it would be very unfair for the bored Han Xuanhao to come here by himself. However, when he thought of Shang Guanhao coming to see him, Han Xuanhao felt very excited, and it was rumored that the Seventh Prince was not as scary as he had been in the past few days.
Of course, for Han Xuan Hao, it would be better if Nangong Qian did not follow them to the Mist Country. However, there were some things that he could not stop. He could act coquettishly in front of Shang and get jealous, but he would not be so stupid as to hurt each other.
Just when Han Xuanhao was happily arranging his appearance in the hall, Han only walked in at this moment with Little White on his shoulder. When Little White saw Han Xuanhao, it jumped down from Han Zhanhao’s shoulder and ran to Han Xuanhao’s side, squeaking non-stop.
Although Han Xuanhao could not understand what Whitey was talking about, he could tell from Whitey’s claws that Whitey was scolding it with a disdainful expression. However, he was in a good mood so he did not throw Whitey out.
“High Lord!” The Holy Envoy has arranged to meet with the High Lord at the Star Restaurant! ” Han only handed the invitation over to Han Xuanhao.
The invitation was a pure white color, yet it was polished with golden threads. However, Han Xuanhao knew that the temple was not as noble as the people said it was, not to mention that Han Xuanhao had already investigated a lot of things regarding the temple.
No one could have imagined that the Holy Maiden of the temple was actually the former Empress of Shang, Qiushan Qiuyi. When Han Xuanhao had first found out about this, he was still a little dazed, but Qiu Rongrong was the daughter of Qiuyi and the previous Holy Envoy, so she had so many experts by her side and her family.
Although the Sacred Hall had been hidden for so many years, their actions were still very open, so Han Xuanhao managed to uncover a lot of things. Furthermore, the Sacred Hall wasn’t completely isolated from the world, so there were some aspects where the Temple had high ambitions.
Among the most respected people in the Temple, there were two, one was the Saint Girl of the Temple, and the Saint Girl was an existence ordinary in the Temple. Although she didn’t have any real power, as long as she was in the Temple, she received respect and love. And the other honorable person in the Temple was the Holy Envoy, who was different from the Holy Maiden. The Holy Maiden had been inherited, such as the current Holy Maiden was Qiuyi Yi. Then, the Holy Maiden next would be Qiu Rongrong. However, the Holy Envoys were chosen. Any capable person could be selected as the Holy Envoys, had control of the Holy Hall, and then be combined with the Holy Maiden to give birth to a new Holy Maiden.
Han Xuan Hao fiddled with the invitation in his hand and then smiled, “It seems that I will have to personally go meet this Holy Envoy!” From the moment Leng Yufeng was injured, Han Xuanhao knew that Shang didn’t have any intentions of destroying the Holy Hall, so he had planned everything out before Shang even arrived in the Fog Country.
He did not go to Shang and receive the news, so he was prepared to come to Fog Nation. In order to avoid Shang and if he acted rashly, quite a number of people from the Cold Star Pavilion had come to ambush them during these few days.
Han Xuanhao rode on the carriage and left the palace. Even though he was the Seventh Prince of the Mist Country, he had always acted arrogantly ever since he had entered the palace. Many people in the palace gave way to him when they saw Han Xuanhao, and it was common for Han Xuanhao to leave the palace.
“High Lord, there’s someone following from behind!” Han only rode on the carriage and reported to the inner palace. Although the martial arts of the people who were sent to follow them were alright, Han Du’s martial arts were even more profound, so Han Li only felt it when he came out of the palace.
Han Xuanhao’s narrow eyes were filled with killing intent. He would always follow these people whenever he left the palace, but he didn’t care about them and never thought that some of them would be so annoying.
“Done!” Han Xuanhao lazily ordered.
This time, Han Xuanhao was not the only person attending to him. Thus, when Han Xuanhao spoke, the figure that was riding the carriage did not move. However, there were people in the shadows who began to deal with this matter.
The horse carriage arrived at the Ice Star Pavilion. Han Xuanhao entered the Ice Star Pavilion from the back door and was led to the Holy Envoy’s room by the bawd. Han Xuanhao waved his hand and let the old procuress go down, then he walked into the private room with Han.
Sitting in the box was a man. He was dressed in an ice blue suit of fine silk, and the elegant, white, bamboo leaf pattern on the sides of the silk matched well with the goose-fat jade hairpin on his head, skillfully showing the extraordinary figure of a noble young master. However, Han Xuanhao only glanced at it with disdain because the temperament of this noble son of the Holy Envoy was too fake and he didn’t even look at Huan Mo Che one bit.
Even in the eyes of the Holy Envoy, even though Han Xuanhao was the prince of a kingdom, his status was not lower than his. To think that he could not even knock on the door when he entered the room, the Holy Envoy was still surprised when he saw Han Xuanhao. To think that a man could be this beautiful.
She had a fair complexion, long and narrow eyes that exuded an enchanting luster, picturesque eyebrows, a tall nose, and a lips as beautiful as a cherry blossom. Every line on his face was so delicate that it seemed as if everything had been obliterated. He was like a masterpiece created by a master craftsman after thousands of years of painstaking efforts. This sort of Huanmo Che was as beautiful as the goblins in that calamitous country. He couldn’t help but sigh when he saw the many beautiful women who were Holy Envoys.
The Holy Envoy stood up and cupped his hands towards Han Xuanhao, “This, is the Seventh Prince, right?”
Han Xuan Hao looked at the Holy Envoy and sat down by himself. His wild appearance almost broke the smile on the Holy Envoy’s face. However, he was not an incompetent person since he could become an Holy Envoy.
“What business do you have with this sovereign today?” Han Xuanhao sat there lazily as if he had no bones. His red clothes were spread out on the chair, causing him to look like an angry demoness.
The Holy Envoy also sat down and said with a smile, “This Holy Envoy came to ask the Seventh Prince if you have the will to ascend to the throne. “I think that the Seventh Prince knows about my identity as an envoy. If I were to lend a helping hand to the Seventh Prince, who else in the court would be able to compare with the Seventh Prince?”
Han Xuanhao squinted his messy eyes. Help him ascend the throne? Ha ha, as a person from the martial world, does he really not care about the golden throne? It was the girl that he loved and loved that made him worry. However, he just wanted to nurture himself into a puppet emperor. Although the emperors of the past few generations were no longer related to the Temple, the former emperors of the Mist Country had to obey the orders of the Temple.
“Oh?” “Then, what does the Holy Envoy want?” Han Xuanhao asked lazily.
The Holy Envoy’s eyes lit up. He had a reason for finding the Seventh Prince. But this Seventh Prince that they had just found was different. The Seventh Prince didn’t have a reliable power nor a reliable force to rely on, so if the Temple intervened, then the Seventh Prince would only be relying on the Temple, and in the future, wouldn’t it be easy for the Seventh Prince to control the Seventh Prince as long as the Seventh Prince was in a higher position? The Holy Envoy could tell that the Seventh Prince wasn’t simple, but the most important thing was that he didn’t like power, so it should be easier to control. Most importantly, the Seventh Marquis’ Mother …
“This Saint Envoy only hopes that after the Seventh Prince ascends to the throne, he can restore the Temple’s former prestige!” The Holy Envoy eagerly said. The former temple was even higher than the emperor in the Mist Country. The people who heard that the temple wasn’t filled with respect and yearning, how could it be compared to now? Many people didn’t even know what the temple was.
“Ha ha!” Han Xuanhao’s fingers wrapped around his long hair as he said with an enchanting smile, “What if my original body doesn’t agree?” Han Xuanhao was purposely testing things out. He felt that there were many things wrong these days. For example, the Mist Emperor was not fond of him, but was using him. This Saint’s resolute gaze made things even more interesting for Han Xuanhao.
Sure enough, when the Holy Envoy heard this, he didn’t seem displeased at all. A assured smile appeared on his face, “Could it be that the Seventh Prince doesn’t know that your Mother is a girl from the Temple?”
It turned out that the Seventh Prince’s Mother was not the daughter of Grand Tutor Liu, and the latter’s daughter had actually been killed long ago by the people of the Temple and then placed in there as a chess piece, and had been spoiled all the way there. Originally, this woman’s mission was to control the Mist emperor, but she didn’t think that the Mist emperor would favor this concubine so much, and thus she had already known the true identity of this concubine.
The concubine lied that she knew all about the Temple’s map and its treasures, which was why the Mist Emperor doted on her so much so that he could learn everything from her. He didn’t expect her to die so early. But this concubine truly did love her child, so before she died, she told everything to her son. As long as the Mist Emperor treated her child well, the child would definitely tell the Mist Emperor everything once he reached adulthood. Unfortunately, this child did not survive. Instead, Han Xuanhao took his place.
Hearing this story, Han Xuanhao finally understood why the Fog Emperor had such a strange attitude. It was truly a good show. However, he only wanted to watch the show and would not act out.
“This sovereign understands. Give this sovereign a few days to think it over!” Han Xuanhao deliberately pondered as he spoke.
The Holy Envoy kindly smiled and stood up, “Then this Holy Envoy will wait for the good news from the Seventh Prince!”
