Starting from crossing the Fengshen

"That's great. After eight years, the king is finally choosing a concubine again. I must participate this time."

"Oh, the Lun family also wants to enter the palace."

"Your Majesty should have chosen a concubine long ago. As the Emperor of Man, Your Majesty has less than 60 concubines, not even as many as many concubines of many princes. How can this reflect the dignity of the Emperor of Man?"

"It seems that the court is anxious in selecting a concubine this time. It is already the eleventh year of Emperor Qi, and the king still has no offspring. In addition, the situation is already unstable due to the rebellion of Xiqi, and heirs are needed to stabilize the country."

"Tsk tsk, there is a huge battle on the front line, and the emperor still has the mind to choose a concubine. How licentious and immoral."

"Anyone can participate in the selection of concubines, which is really great. I would like to ask, can the Jade Rabbit Clan participate?"

……

On the Internet, the people of the Shang Dynasty naturally expressed their unanimous support.

Although there were some rumors, most people just wanted to watch the show. However, many female cultivators from all over the country were excited after seeing the announcement.

This is the emperor's choice of concubine.

If you can enter the palace, you will have endless access to various cultivation resources!
In the imperial palace, many concubines also like to post on Douyin, often showing off elixirs, magic weapons, natural treasures, food and drinks, etc. bestowed by the Emperor of Heaven. It is simply a life like a god.

……

Song.

A high-end hotel in the south of the city.

Princess Chen Xi of the Great Yong Dynasty looked at the announcement on her phone, a strange light flashed in her eyes, and she whispered to herself: "The Emperor is choosing a concubine, this may be an opportunity."

As early as September last year, she decided to come to Yin Shang.

But as the eldest princess of the Great Yong Dynasty, she couldn't come whenever she wanted. Instead, she arranged all matters and it took her more than two months to finally arrive in Chaoge in early December last year.

When she first arrived in Chaoge, she was deeply attracted by its prosperity, as if she had come to another world.

This kind of impact is far beyond what you can achieve by watching Tik Tok.

She decided that after she returned, she would use Chaoge as a template to transform Yongcheng.

The next day, she went to the Ministry of Rites, stated her identity and purpose, and wanted to buy warships and even the techniques to build warships. Of course, she was sternly rejected.

Warships were the Shang Dynasty’s most powerful weapons.

It's not enough for their own use, how can they sell it to others, and even sell the refining techniques to others.

However, Chen Xi was not discouraged. In the next few days, she visited many nobles in Chaoge, as well as civil and military ministers in the court, hoping to obtain permission to purchase warships by giving them lavish gifts.

But it turned out that none of the civil and military officials accepted the gift.

Some people with stubborn tempers even drove her out of the house.

She also thought about meeting Di Qi and communicating with him directly.

But the Ministry of Rites made no arrangements at all.

According to the Ministry of Rites, there are too many princesses, princes, and envoys like Chen Xi during this period of time, and it is impossible to bring them all into the palace to meet the Human Emperor.

Otherwise, the Emperor wouldn't have to deal with government affairs and would be too busy receiving envoys every day.

Chen Xi also stated that the Dayong Immortal Dynasty was very powerful, and the Immortal Emperor was also a powerful person at the peak of the Xuanxian level, but the Ministry of Rites did not believe it at all.

So in disappointment, she could only work hard to collect the weapon refining techniques below the immortal level that were publicly authorized by the court, preparing to bring them back to the Dayong Immortal Dynasty, but she did not expect that there would be a sudden turn of events.

"If I could enter the palace..."

Chen Xi's eyes lit up slightly.

She is an absolutely rational person and is willing to pay some price to achieve her goals.

Although Emperor Qi was a mortal, he had a heroic appearance and held even more power than her father. It was not impossible for her to become the concubine of such a man.

Anyway, Di Qi only has another 20 to 30 years to live.

Even if he could live to be a hundred years old, he would only have about seventy years left. Seventy years, but she would often go into seclusion for a hundred years at a time.

If she could enter the palace, she would not only have the opportunity to obtain warships, but even the technique to refine warships would not be impossible. At the same time, all kinds of good things from the Shang Dynasty could be transported to the Dayong Dynasty.

She had already inquired about it and found out that Di Qi was very generous.

At that time, the princes such as Marquis of Xibo, Marquis of Qingzhou, and Marquis of Jizhou, who married their daughters into the palace, all gained a lot of benefits from the Shang Dynasty.

.........

Night falls and the full moon rises in the east.

In Chaoge City, countless neon lights are lit up, making people feel like they are in a dream.

The streets and alleys were already bustling with noise, with countless people coming out of their homes in groups and laughing constantly. Children were especially happy, jumping and playing with Lantern Festival lanterns in their hands.

Various colorful fireworks were set off from time to time in various places in the city, attracting countless people to look up and admire them.

There are many programs during the Lantern Festival, such as guessing lantern riddles, dragon dancing, stilt walking, lantern fighting, sacrificial dance, etc. Merchants will also come up with various promotional activities, attracting countless people to scramble for products.

On Zhuque Street, Yin Qi was holding a colorful lantern and admiring this grand occasion.

This was a prosperous era under his rule.

To be honest, although he has been in the Fengshen World for fourteen years, this is the first time he has celebrated the Lantern Festival as an "ordinary person". It feels much more lively than the Lantern Festival in his previous life.

Invisibly, he also felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart.

Yin Qi turned around and saw Nuwa coming towards him.

She was wearing a lavender palace skirt today, which was embroidered with exquisite patterns. It was the most popular style at the time. She looked like a lotus emerging from the water, pure and elegant.

She has a graceful and elegant figure, and her fair skin seems to be covered with a hazy glow under the light, like a fairy walking out of a dream world, ethereal and unreal.

"I looked for him thousands of times in the crowd, and suddenly I looked back, but the man was in a dimly lit place."

These words suddenly rang in Yin Qi's mind.

In his opinion, Nuwa's appearance was not the most beautiful, but she had the best temperament. She did not have the superiority of a saint. Instead, she was like a blooming peony, gorgeous and eye-catching.

Perhaps noticing Yin Qi's gaze, Nuwa turned around and looked at him, and their eyes met.

Yin Qi smiled and walked up to him with a gracious voice: "I am Chen Nan, a Taoist priest. I am honored to meet you. What is your name?"

Nuwa was also stunned. She didn't expect Yin Qi to come forward and say hello.

But come to think of it, they had met by chance five times before.

Although I just nodded and smiled every time, we still knew each other.

Thinking of this, she smiled and said, "It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Chen. I, Feng Xi, am honored to meet you."

After living in Chaoge for half a year, she had already integrated into the society and let go of her former identity as a saint. She was just a female cultivator in the Xuanxian realm, living an ordinary yet novel life in Chaoge.

"It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Feng. We met by chance a few times before, and we met again this time, so I couldn't help but come forward and say hello. I hope that this does not offend Fellow Daoist Feng." Yin Qi said sincerely.

"Chaoge is so big, and we have met six times in half a year. It is really fate."

Nuwa also smiled slightly, looking very graceful and generous.

Yin Qi was a little surprised and couldn't help but smile: "Yes, this is indeed fate. Today is the Lantern Festival, you and I are both alone, how about we go out together?"

Nuwa said: "Of course it is possible."

"Here, here you go."

Yin Qi handed the lantern in his hand to Nuwa.

Nuwa looked at Yin Qi with some doubt, but still reached out to take the lantern. (End of this chapter)
