Old days in the box

Chapter 261 That’s right, do as the Romans do, I am the True Lord Bingrong!

"The sword-wielding princess of the Yuan family is better than seeing her once."

The emperor smiled and showed a faint smile towards Yuan Wuyou.

Chu Lihua, the current emperor of the Jade World, is the seventy-fifth emperor born from the Chu family and the eleventh female emperor in the history of the Jade World.

As the empress appointed by the White Jade Dragon Girl, she was once the spiritual idol of Yuan Wuyou. She believed that women should be like this and should create their own world in their limited life and leave their name in history.

Unexpectedly, this female emperor would appear in front of him alive now!

"Wow, Emperor! I mean... His Majesty the Emperor! Wuyou meets Your Majesty!" Yuan Wuyou immediately became nervous and stumbled to salute the Emperor.

"There is no need to be polite. Since today is a secret summons, although you and I are different from each other, there is no need to be polite. Come here and accompany me to see how the oven is made."

The emperor chuckled and waved to Yuan Wuyou; Yuan Wuyou had no other choice but to stiffly walk forward and came to the emperor's side.

This gleaming oven is very close at hand, emitting energy all the time and transmitting it to unknown places through the air.

"When you first attended the Bailong Mountain Speech Lecture Hall, you cut off four flint ovens with one sword. Based on your feedback from that swordsmanship, the Ministry of Steel and Fire later built this Thousand Machines Oven. What do you think?"

Yuan Wuyou couldn't help but feel guilty when she heard this. She never thought that this thing could be related to what she did when she was eight years old, and she suddenly started sweating profusely.

"Your Majesty, Wuyou was still young at the time, so he was so bold and adventurous... In fact, Wuyou doesn't know anything about craftsmanship and smelting, and he really doesn't understand the subtleties of it..." Yuan Wuyou answered truthfully with an embarrassed look on his face.

The emperor was amused by the little girl's frankness, and turned to the other princess behind her, "What do you think Xianning?"

"The Thousand Machines Oven is a creation of the 156th generation's organ art. Not only is the energy supply efficiency greatly increased by a hundred times, but also thanks to the fragile outer layer exposed by Princess Wuyou, the outer wall has been reinforced. The transformation is now fully sufficient to be put into actual combat.”

Xian Ning lowered her head towards the emperor and replied briskly.

Ever since Yuan Wuyou's sword was struck, the Foundry Steel Fire Department's attention was quickly drawn to the fragility of existing energy creations.

No matter how convenient the existing energy creations are, if they can be destroyed so easily, then they cannot be put into actual combat at all.

It was based on the feedback from that sword that the Steel and Fire Department continued to develop the subsequent Thousand Machines Oven, which was a solid research result.

Yuan Wuyou was dumbfounded when she heard this. She just wanted to give that young man a blow. Who would have thought of this!

"Well, you see, skills have no boundaries. This may be the charm of research." The emperor nodded with satisfaction, then turned to the oven in front of him again, "Xian Ning, please step aside first."

Without any warning, the emperor suddenly said these words.

"Yes, Your Majesty." As if he had expected it, Li Xianning was not surprised and just answered softly.

Since His Majesty wanted to summon Yuan Wuyou in secret, he naturally would not allow a third person to be present. This was to be expected.

Moreover, Li Xianning already knew what they were going to talk about, and there was no need to listen.

Yuan Wuyou didn't expect that Xian Ning would be deported, so he quickly looked to his best friend for help. However, Li Xian Ning had no other option, so he just stepped back gently and left along the dark corridor where he came from. go.

Soon, she and the emperor were the only ones left in the empty workshop space.

"Wuyou, you should have heard that the candidate for the next emperor has been selected, right?" The emperor continued to pace forward with Yuan Wuyou, walking slowly around the huge oven.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I just learned about it." Yuan Wuyou followed closely.

"You don't blame me for not choosing you, do you?" The emperor suddenly stopped and turned around, looking at her gently, "The Jade Realm has been a country for five thousand years, and there have been a total of 110 emperors. Although there are men and women among them, they have never been There has never been two consecutive female emperors, this is an unspoken rule."

"Men can tolerate one empress, but they cannot tolerate two empresses in a row. This is a compromise."

"How could it be? The position of the emperor is of great importance and should not be played with. Wuyou has never had such an idea!" Yuan Wuyou quickly waved his hand and said.

For some reason, it was the first time for her to see His Majesty the Emperor, but she felt an invisible affinity with him, as if she was being taken on a tour by an elder.

"That's good, but I've also heard that Princess Yujian of the original family is a woman with a strong personality and is bent on pursuing fame. This is why I summoned you today." The emperor nodded towards her and continued. .

"Wuyou is willing to relieve His Majesty's worries." Yuan Wuyou lowered his head cautiously.

"Your father proposed a memorial in the court, that you and Chu Shun, the candidate for the next emperor, should be engaged and get married three years later when he succeeds to the throne. What do you think?"

The emperor's smile never changed from beginning to end, as if she were the gentle woman frozen in the painting, looking directly at Yuan Wuyou. "I..." Yuan Wuyou hesitated a little.

If she were at home, she could reject her father without any burden, but now she was facing His Majesty the Emperor, and she didn't know how to answer for a moment.

"This memorial has indeed aroused opposition from some ministers. They are worried that this move will break the balance of the three royal families and create the emergence of hereditary bloodlines. But if you are willing, I can act as a matchmaker for you as an emperor and facilitate this for you. A marriage."

Unexpectedly, the emperor changed the topic and continued to say such words from his red lips.

"Although I have not met Shun a few times, in my family, he is my nephew. I can say without humility that he is definitely a rare emperor's talent and a man worthy of trust."

The union of the Yuan family's sword-wielding princess and the Chu family's imperial son was a risky move that most people in the government and the public disagreed with.

Although they did not choose Yuan Wuyou for the throne, there is no doubt about the power of the dragon that this princess inherited. If she really marries a great talent like Chu Shun, this bloodline may not be able to hold on. .

But this kind of proposal was immediately agreed to by the emperor.

"Emperor, I...I have no idea of ​​getting married." But Yuan Wuyou only thought about it for a moment and quickly rejected the emperor's kindness.

"Can I ask the reason?" The emperor raised his brows charmingly and asked with interest.

"My ambition is not to get married. I hope to build my own merits and achievements, just like my ancestors in ancient times." Yuan Wuyou mustered up the courage and slowly spoke out what was on his mind.

"Well, continue." The emperor nodded and encouraged her to continue with his eyes.

"I want to cross the Zixiao Pass, open up territory for the Jade World, and reopen the mountain pass. In fact, we have accumulated thousands of years of strength and manufacturing technology. If we are stuck here all the time, what will happen to our continuously improving technology? What’s the point?”

Yuan Wuyou was a little worried at first, but he became more and more enthusiastic as he talked and simply said everything in his heart.

The emperor laughed silently. The Hidden Mountain Pass was a national policy established by the ancestors of the Jade World. No one had raised objections in five thousand years, but this princess dared to speak out without hesitation. She was indeed extremely straightforward.

"That's the answer I want to hear."

The emperor finally spoke, but this time he did not use the same conceited tone, but became truly happy.

"Actually, I do have an idea about crossing the mountains and setting foot in the West, but I need a candidate - to be precise, a woman, a woman who is determined enough to dare to give up her own happiness and go to the unknown land to open up frontiers. As an earthly woman, I think you should be the most ideal candidate."

The expression on Yuan Wuyou's face gradually brightened following the emperor's words.

Unexpectedly, the emperor secretly summoned her this time, and it turned out that he had such an intention in the end!

"I see! I knew that Your Majesty, Your Majesty, would not be as short-sighted as others! Ah, I mean... Wuyou is always ready to share your Majesty's worries!"

Yuan Wuyou immediately straightened his back and said excitedly to the emperor.

"I knew that my destiny in this life was not just to marry a royal family member and spend the rest of my life in love with someone else! Your Majesty, just tell me, no matter what you have in mind, Wuyou will try his best to complete it!" Yuan Wuyou said with a look on his face. firm.

"I want to send you to the West to marry a royal nobleman of the Byzantine Empire. The little bird will become his partner and open a road across the mountains for the jade world."

The emperor looked at the extremely excited Yuan Wuyou and could already fully understand how this tough princess got her reputation in the royal court. However, this frankness and sincerity was also a rare pearl in the royal family. .

"Ah? No way, Your Majesty, you are just trying to amuse me!" Yuan Wuyou, who was so excited just now, was suddenly stunned, and he said something disrespectful without paying attention.

She had just thought that she was finally going to have great luck. His Majesty the Emperor had entrusted her with some secret military aircraft mission to complete. Her dream of opening up new territories had not yet begun, but she was suddenly struck down by the Emperor's words. .

"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, you should change your impatient temper." The emperor couldn't help being amused by her, and led the impatient sword-wielding princess to the side of the oven, where there was not enough light. illuminated dim clearing.

"Before I explain this military aircraft in detail, I want to introduce you to someone first."

In this dim clearing, a strange red-purple stream of light was born, surging with violent magic power that was constantly self-annihilating and reborn, gradually forming a group of crimson and purple one-eyed balls.

"This is the foreign guest who just arrived from the sea, the 'Shenjun Bingrong'."

Under the emperor's recommendation, this one-eyed stream of light entwined with quantum magic power continued to stir and expand, like a fluid star cluster that was about to annihilate itself at any time.

What appeared in front of Yuan Wuyou at this time turned out to be the quantum state of "war".
