I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon - Chapter 477
Chapter 477: The Troubles of the World (2)
Today’s breakfast was exceptionally sumptuous.
Not only was there a lot of fresh seafood, there was also an expensive wild ginseng chicken soup.
Ling Ping’an ordered a bowl and took a sip; it tasted not so good.
He pursed his lips, not understanding why outsiders were willing to pay thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands for this kind of thing.
However, it was shameful to consider wasting food.
He pinched his nose and finished the bowl of soup.
After he finished the soup, he received a text message on his phone.
It was from the ‘Committee of Meritorious Service Children’ under the imperial family.
“Honorable invited guest: Young Master Ling Is Safe. Your schedule today is as follows: 10 a.m.-12 a.m. visit the Memorial Hall of Great Xia’s great ancestor and relive the glorious days of the founding heroes of the nation…”
“12:30 pm, eat in the Great Hall of the Zhou Hall of the Parliament…”
“2:00 pm, visit the Memorial Hall of the 100-year war, look at the relics, weapons, and manuscripts of the war heroes…”
Of course, he should follow his schedule.
It was also what a meritorious disciple like him should do.
He closed his phone.
Lowering his head slightly, he said, “I’ll probably take a bus for several hours today!”
Just thinking about riding a bus gave Ling Ping’an a slight headache as he could guess that it would definitely be a bus.
To visit the ancestral hall and the hundred-year War Memorial Hall.
Which idiot would dare to drive there?
Wasn’t he afraid that he would be directly spat at and Fly Up?
In the hearts of many people, the ancestral hall was a saint!
To the Old Republic and the old empire, visiting the ancestral hall was basically no different from worshipping the Gods and Buddhas. Not only did they have to bathe and burn incense, some extreme guys would even fast a few days in advance. Then only would they walk to the memorial hall.
As for the Hundred Years War Memorial Hall?
That was even more amazing.
It was known as the reverse scale of the Federal Empire.
Two years ago, an ignorant guy posted a video of him visiting the memorial hall online.
In the video, that guy was shouting loudly in the memorial hall.
Then, he was directly butchered by the netizens of the southern and Northern Zhou dynasties.
In the end, under the denunciation of public opinion, the guy was almost killed by the society.
No one wanted to find a job, no one picked up a taxi.
When he went to the market to buy vegetables, he would be directly rejected by the stall owners who recognized him, which was extremely miserable!
Therefore, when he visited these two places, the sensible people all knew that he had to be respectful.
Otherwise, if they were photographed and posted on the Internet, the public opinion would spread.
Even if one’s father was a heavenly king, he would not be able to withstand the violent public opinion.
Especially those people from the southern Zhou and Northern Zhou who had nothing to do all day and always carried their guns to shoot in the wild. Their martial virtue was so abundant that it was beyond imagination.
These people usually did not make a sound.
Every time they made a sound, they would take the side of the Emperor.
They were the kind of people that everyone feared.
…
Qin Keqing led the staff to inspect the ancestral hall on the west side of the city.
“There’s still more than an hour before the guests arrive!” She looked at her watch and instructed the hall master beside her, Wang Yuanjing, “Hall Master Wang, you must do a good job with security inside and outside the hall. Don’t make any mistakes!”
“Yes!” Wang Yuanjing used to be the deputy director of the Empire’s Air Force Combat Department. After he retired, he got a good job as the curator of the Taizu Memorial Hall. Naturally, he spent a lot of effort on it.
One had to know that after the directors of the Taizu Memorial Hall died, the royal family would definitely be posthumous and conferred additional titles.
Usually, there would be a title of Earl, and in the posthumous title, there would definitely be the word ‘loyal’.
This was amazing as it would bring glory to the ancestors.
It was even possible to enter the history books and obtain a single biography.
This was something that would go down in history!
For most retired officials, this was the only thing they pursued for the rest of their lives!
Moreover, he had also heard the news.
There was going to be an additional yin division under the Blackguard, which would specifically manage the underworld.
What did this mean?
Even if it was a mortal, his soul might return after death.
The glory of the world could also be used in the netherworld.
In the past two days, the officials in the imperial capital had been busy flipping through all sorts of legends and stories.
One should be a hero in life, and a hero in death!
His enthusiasm for work suddenly soared by several levels.
Naturally, Wang Yuanjing was also average.
He hadn’t slept the whole night and was busy checking the security of the exhibition hall.
He had carefully checked the whole place several times.
He had really made sure that not even a bird could fly in.
Looking at the energetic old man with two dark circles under his eyes, Qin Keqing nodded and then said, “Director Wang, the diplomats from various countries will come today…”
“Director Wang, you must be careful. There are people with malicious intentions among these people!”
“Don’t let these people disturb the distinguished guests!”
“You should know that even the emperor is watching today!”
“Don’t worry, Secretary Qin!” Wang Yuanjing patted his chest and promised, “Even if I give up my old life, I won’t ruin the National Plan!”
As a soldier, he had always been very disciplined.
However, Wang Yuanjing asked in a low voice, “Is the distinguished guest mentioned by Secretary Qin?”
Qin Keqing pursed her lips.
She couldn’t hide this kind of thing even if she wanted to because it was already known by everyone.
The Cabinet, Doctor Qing’s Parliament, the Imperial Palace’s Internal Affairs department…
They all had big mouths.
Or rather, they had big mouths following the edict.
The legend of Young Master X was flying everywhere.
Kunlun Mountain was extraordinary.
Even the details were spreading like wildfire.
As a result, all the countries in the world were stirred up.
As for the Federal Empire, they sat on the fishing platform and watched as the countries scratched their heads and ran left and right.
To a certain extent, the current situation was something that the federal empire of Xia had done on purpose.
They had purposely blown up the matter so that everyone else would know.
They did not hide it for fear that others would know.
This was an open and aboveboard scheme!
It was a method to attack the heart.
Just like decades ago, after the nuclear physicists of great Xia successfully detonated the first atomic bomb in the desert, they immediately broadcasted the footage of the nuclear explosion to the entire world through the diplomatic department.
This was similar to the space-based weapon test 15 years ago.
It was also broadcasted live so that the entire world could see it clearly.
Through these methods, the federal empire of Xia could defeat the enemy without a fight.
Without a single soldier, they could make the entire world follow Great Xia’s etiquette.
Benevolence, righteousness, filial piety, even in Kunlun state, they had to put on a show. Otherwise, they would be called Barbarians and treated as uncivilized barbarians.
Wang Yuanjing looked at Qin Keqing’s appearance and immediately understood.
Other than that person, who else was worthy of the eldest princess’ personal secretary personally coming here to supervise?
He immediately said respectfully, “I understand! Please ask Secretary Qin to tell the eldest princess that I will do my best to Die!”
Qin Keqing nodded.
This was also one of the purposes of this trip.
Through the conversation with Wang Yuanjing, he would spread the news of the appearance of Young Master Ling.
It would stimulate the intelligence departments of various countries and force them to operate at full force.
Thus, those spies that would not be activated and awakened in the past would be activated.
In this way, the houses in the imperial capital could be cleaned up.
At the same time, it would also be a fox using Tiger’s might.
Because of the falling stars in the Kunlun Mountains, the Blackguard began to withdraw all of their strength.
Most of the generals had returned to the metropolitan territory.
Many of their weaknesses had been exposed.
Therefore, they could only use the skin of the spirit young master.
…
The Butania Embassy.
Alucard slowly changed into the appearance of an embassy military officer.
He walked through the lively ballroom.
He slowly walked to the back of Ambassador Butania.
“Ambassador…” he handed over a document, “Her Majesty’s Order!”
As Butania’s ambassador to Xia, Sheffel, took over the document. He glanced at it and felt relieved, “God bless the Queen!”
This order was personally written by the Queen, and it was signed by the Prime Minister.
The contents of it ordered him to contact the great Xia authorities and apply to join the expedition to Kunlun Mountain.
Without a doubt, the arrival of this decree meant that Butania was seeking an alliance with the east.
Undoubtedly, it was fusion!
Sheffel kept the decree and said to Alucard, “Sir, I’ll leave this matter to you to discuss with the Xia people!”
The Kunlun Mountain scientific expedition was read as a scientific expedition, and it was a writing alliance.
The Xia people had spread the news of a joint scientific expedition. In fact, they were exploring the possibility of the various countries cooperating on the development of the Kunlun Mountain’s transcendent being resources.
In the transcendent world, the spiritual items of the transcendent being were the oil of industry.
They were indispensable necessities for all transcendents!
Therefore, joining the scientific expedition itself was an attitude.
The attitude of one’s own people.
Even the attitude of an ally.
If they were not brothers, who would let others see their own big treasure?
If they were not allies, who would casually give benefits to others?
Alucard listened and nodded. “I will immediately go to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China and talk to their person-in-charge!”
“But…” He softly reminded the ambassador, “Sir, please pay attention to your personal safety these days!”
Alucard understood the various countries of the land of Qin too well.
Those fellows were not good at solving problems, but solving the people who raised them.
For example, the Fran Alliance could only solve the emperor because he raised a problem that no one wanted to solve.
Hence, once the assassins of land of Qin learned that Britania was seeking to ally with great Xia in the east, which meant they would definitely attack Sheffield.
Sheffield nodded, but he was confident, “You do not need to worry about my safety!”
“I will avoid going out these few days!”
“Right!” Sheffield suddenly said, “Sire, during your stay in the imperial capital, have you met that Young Master X?”
Alucard smiled bitterly, “How would I dare to approach him?”
Sheffel nodded thoughtfully.
It must be known that before July, Butania still regarded the east as a great enemy.
Back then, Butania had put in a lot of effort to build the Sacred Alliance.
After all, Butania could easily forget the blood feud of the hundred-year war?
However, with the appearance of WHO.
Immediately, Butania made a wise choice.
It was just like how they found out on the South Zhou battlefield that if they continued to fight, they would be throwing their lives away.
Hence, without saying anything, they immediately sold Fran, Furanji, Alliance Province, Habsburg, and other allies to sign the Xin’an treaty with great Xia.
They could end the 100-year war with dignity and preserve their strength.
From there, they could continue to maintain their status as a great country.
He was different from the Fran people, where the king was sent to the guillotine.
He was even less like the Fran Emperor, who lost his underwear on the southern Zhou battlefield. He was unable to recover and could no longer become a world power.
He did not even have the strength to control the situation in the land of Qin.
In the end, even the throne was given to his younger brother by the Fran Emperor.
Now, Butania rebelled once again. It was reasonable.
There was no other way!
When he met that person in Alucard, he understood.
With that support from the east, even if all the Butania people died, they would not be harmed in the slightest.
In that case, Butania could only have one choice — to join summer.
If he could not win, then he would join.
This wasn’t shameful!
The reason why Butania was hesitant was because he was nervous.
He was nervous about his position, nervous about his culture, nervous about his position.
He was afraid that he wouldn’t be accepted, or that he would be treated as a barbarian after he was accepted.
Therefore, the series of contacts after that.
Were actually all probing.
For instance, he proposed to set up a joint laboratory in River City.
They wanted to see what position they were in in the eyes of the Xia people?
Unexpectedly, the other party agreed to it immediately.
Now, even the Divine Mountain of the metropolitan territory, Kunlun Mountain, was willing to let Butania participate.
Butania was naturally not stupid and immediately reacted.
This was the so-called talent in the east.
However…
“Alucard doesn’t even have the courage to go see him…” Sheffield thought in his heart, “How Holy is that Young Master X?”
With this thought, Sheffield asked, “Sir, I heard that the Princess of the Fallen Kingdom of Rosia is active now… it seems that she wants to get that support…”
“Do you think… it’s possible?”
Alucard frowned.
Were the people idiots?
But he immediately reacted.
The people still didn’t know that Evie died in the hands of that person.
Therefore, he immediately laughed playfully, “Then let them try!”
The victim ran to the murderer to ask for help?
It was a funny scene to think about.
When Sheffel saw Alucard’s expression, he came to his senses.
He quietly took off a ring on his finger.
It was impossible for Rosia to return to the country.
Naturally, he could not wear this ring given by the Rosia Royal Family.
…
In the Xinluo embassy.
Ambassador Wen Fengming had just ended a call with the country.
The current Xinluo prime minister Cui Xian scolded him over the phone.
The reason was simple.
The Great Xia officials rejected the proposal of the Xinluo side to send scientists to join the Great Xia expedition team.
They asked the Xinluo people to form their own Xinluo expedition team before submitting their application.
The Prime Minister was furious!
That was because the Xinluo election was coming soon.
The prime minister was under a lot of pressure. He was afraid that he would be forced out after the election.
The Xinluo people were really passionate about participating in great Xia’s activities, but they also had high expectations.
They had always wanted to be taken seriously.
Unfortunately, concubines were interested but heartless.
The attitude of the Great Xia officials was that Xinluo was an independent and sovereign country, and they should decide their own matters!
The message was that “you are already grown up and weaned, so do not bother me”!
Unfortunately, Xinluo had always thought that he was not weaned.
He still wanted his father to love him again, especially the people!
This emotion rose to madness among both ordinary people and extraordinary people.
Naturally, at such a sensitive time.
Xinluo’s proposal was rejected, bringing great pressure to the prime minister.
If he was not careful, he might end his life as political.
And, as the person directly responsible.
It was already good enough for Wen Fengming to be scolded.
He put down the phone and sighed. “It’s been hard on you. Miss Yin has made me proud!”
He touched the card that he was holding tightly in his hand.
This was his lifeline!
The card that was signed by the young master.
He looked at the outstanding comments on the card and let out a deep breath.
This was his capital!
With it, all parties in the country could give an explanation.
Even iIf Miss Yin could really be by his side in the future.
To him, this was a great achievement!
The Wen family might even use this to get into the two classes.
Thinking of this, Wen Fengming picked up the phone and called the representative office of Xinluo in the deer cry villa.
Then, he asked the representative office to pick up Yin Mingxiu’s call.
Not long after, the call went through.
“Ambassador, this is Yin Mingxiu…”he heard the trembling and cautious voice of the young girl on the phone.
Wen Fengming revealed an extremely amiable and brilliant smile. Like an elder, he said softly, “Miss Yin, on behalf of the Xinluo Royal Family and the Xinluo people, I would like to congratulate you!”
“Your success is also the success of our entire country!”
“I, the entire embassy, the royal family, the cabinet, and the entire nation are proud of you!”
“Miss Yin, for the sake of the world and the people, please continue to work hard and create another great achievement!”
“Please!” As he said that, even though they were separated by the phone, Wen Fengming still bowed deeply!
This bow was something that Wen Fengming was willing to do.
But the little girl on the phone was at a loss.
“Ambassador, you’re too kind…”
“I can’t afford it!”
The corner of Wen Fengming’s mouth curled up slightly.
Since ancient times, matters had always been important in Xinluo.
Until now, they had relied on this ancient cultural mother country from all aspects, such as economy, culture, people’s livelihood, national defense, transcendent being security, and so on.
As a small country, Xinluo was naturally afraid.
What was there to be afraid of?
It was not invasion. The people of Xinluo were eager for the king’s army to enter Pyongyang, and many of them had already acted out the act of eating jug pulp countless times in their dreams.
Unfortunately, reality was always Nanwang’s army for another year.
Hence, Xinluo was afraid of being abandoned.
The moment they lost Great Xia’s market and support policies,.
Xinluo’s economy would collapse and the people’s livelihood would fall.
Hence, the most important thing for Xinluo was to maintain the new Xia relationship.
It was best to merge into the Federal Empire of Xia. After all, they would not lose anything. Under the federal system of the Federal Empire of Xia, an independent kingdom could still maintain its own structure. They only needed to hand over diplomatic, national defense, legislative, and judicial power.
As for the other powers, they would be left to independent kingdoms.
For example, South Zhou, North Zhou, and West song could keep most of the taxes.
They could even get the central federal government’s financial transfer payments.
It was really awesome!
It was precisely because of this that Xin Luo and Fu sang broke their brains and wanted to join the big family of the Federal Empire.
From sons and adopted sons, they became brothers and sisters.
At the very least, under the premise of maintaining the current situation, they had to think of ways to improve further.
Thinking of this, Wen Fengming continued to whisper softly, “Miss Yin, you deserve it!”
“Thanks to you, I, Xin Luo, was not abandoned by the people of Fu sang this time!”
“I, Xin Luo, was able to preserve my dignity!”
To the people of Xin Luo, anyone could lose.
But to Fusang, they had to win!
This was the feeling of hundreds of years of hatred mixed together.
“Here, I’ll tell you something first…” Wen Fengming smiled and said, “Because of you… the cabinet has decided to build a highway in your hometown, Nan’an township, Qingshang Road, to end the history of your hometown not having a Highway!”
“Moreover, your siblings will all be arranged to serve as civil servants in the local government…”
“Your parents will enjoy the treatment of retirees starting from this year, which is comparable to the treatment of sixth-grade cadres in state-owned enterprises!”
“In addition, the Qing Shang Road Middle School and Nan an primary school that you attended will receive special funding for four years starting from this year…”
“All the children will receive royal support. If they can successfully advance to school, their tuition and miscellaneous fees will be exempted. They will also be provided with a scholarship fund established in your name! This will ensure that their future studies will not be disturbed by other factors!”
As Wen Fengming spoke, the person on the other end of the phone was already sobbing.
“Thank you… You’re very kind!”
Wen Fengming listened and narrowed his eyes with a smile. “Miss Yin, you’re welcome. This is what you deserve, and also what you deserve for your contributions!”
He had already investigated.
Yin Mingxiu was born in the poor Qing Shang sect.
Moreover, she was very homesick.
Therefore, he applied the right medicine and used all his resources to obtain these benefits for her.
Now, Wen Fengming was sure that his investment was successful.
…
Chiba Michiko opened the window of her room.
A maid who had been waiting at the window immediately asked, “Miss, what do you want?”
In response, Chiba Michiko shook her head.
To be honest, she was not used to the life now.
“I’m just a poor little fox girl…”she thought, “To be able to make delicious food to appease people’s hearts in this life is already very satisfying…”
“How did it become like this?”
After that night, Chiba Michiko’s status in the Fusang embassy and the government skyrocketed.
Currently, she was almost treated as a princess.
This made her feel a little uncomfortable, for she was just a little fox demon who loved to cook.
Because Ling-san had chosen her, she was lucky enough to get recognition by relying on her poor cooking skills.
However, because of this recognition, she had been regarded as hope by everyone in Fu sang.
“But…” Chiba Michiko lowered her head. “I haven’t even repaid Ling-san’s kindness!”
“How can I help Fusang?”
Even though the embassy and Prince Rimiko had always said ‘Miss Chiba, don’t feel any pressure’ and ‘we don’t need you to do anything’.
Nonetheless, Chiba Michiko wasn’t a fool.
One must have something to ask for.
How could she not know that the Fusang Kingdom had designs on her?
“I hope Ling-san won’t blame me for this…”she lamented.
This was what she was most worried about right now.
They were originally just friends, a pure relationship between a chef and a customer.
It was mixed with an unclear relationship.
It was very rude and immoral.
If Ling San found out, would he be unhappy?
“I have to find an opportunity to make things clear with Ling San!” Chiba Michiko clenched her fists.
