I was vying for favor with four big daddy

Chapter 625
"boom--"

On the calm sea surface, monstrous waves suddenly rose, wrapped in broken stones, planks and iron pieces, and flew in all directions.

The whole sea area vibrated.

Following this earth-shattering bang, there were three more bangs in succession, and the waves were pushed onto the shore.

A grand beauty pageant ceremony is being held on Pearl Island, and countless beauties are singing and dancing, or competing for talent.

Unexpectedly, the mountain shook and the ground shook in an instant, the built Bimei arena collapsed, and all the colorful lights and flowers fell down.

The beauties shoved each other, ignored their manners, and ran away screaming.

On the high platform around the arena, several people watching the singing and dancing stood up and shouted: "Come on, come on, protect the Sea Dragon King!"

"There are a few of you going to see what's going on, isn't the sea sealed off? Where did the dragon cannon come from?"

Pearl Island suddenly became chaotic, and before the guards on the island went out to sea to find out why, four treasure ships with imperial flags had already sailed on the sea.

They are like the most loyal bodyguards, guarding the dragon boat behind them.

After a roar, the ship stopped on the shore, and the three-story treasure ship was full of forbidden soldiers with weapons in their hands, and the rest were divided into four teams, and they quickly got off the ship and surrounded the shore.

On the dragon boat, the dragon's head shook slightly, and slowly spit out a long folded wooden ladder from its mouth, gently touching the shore.

Two female generals flew out along the wooden ladder with shadow guards wearing black unicorns, one left and one right, firmly guarding the wooden ladder.

Then came out a eunuch holding floating dust in his hand, led four young eunuchs, and sang loudly: "His Majesty Mingde is here, kneel!"

He quickly stepped down the wooden ladder, revealing 24 pairs of eunuchs and 24 pairs of court ladies behind him.

The eunuchs held various dragon and luan flags with red background and black stripes, solemn banners and birthday fans, as well as gourds for ceremonial guards, and finally an umbrella cover embroidered with seven golden dragons.

The maid at the back was in charge of carrying the colored lamp incense burner, and the smoky incense mist had almost dissipated, and Empress Mingde was not seen coming out of the dragon boat.

Officials from the two state capitals of Dongzhou and Nanzhou were kneeling on the shore.

It was already July, and it was the hottest time in the Twelve States. After a while, everyone was sweating profusely and could hardly keep their eyes open.

They were prostrate on the ground, their backs arched, their heads lowered, and it was difficult for them to even breathe. Soon a fat official passed out.

His subordinates wanted to quietly come over to carry him away, but unexpectedly, a clear and crisp sound came from the top of his head:
"Did you move? Kneel down to His Majesty, without sincerity, come here, drag it down and hit me with twenty sticks."

There were ready-made instruments of torture in the empress' guard of honor, and the forbidden army received the military order of the young general Ming, without further ado, they came directly to drag her away and severely punished her.

Dozens of officials tremblingly listened to the wailing coming from the front, and the sweat they had sweated just now was about to freeze.

I don't know whether it was the heat or the fright, and several officials fainted. Qian Shuang ordered people to wake up with cold water and continued to kneel.

On the shore, after twenty sticks were beaten, the officials also fainted and were carried away by the imperial guards.

That posture didn't look like curing a disease, but rather took away Shen Hai, and the officials were almost unable to hold on.

At this time, the empress slowly came out of the cabin.

In front of him are two giant snakes, and behind him is a scarlet gold phoenix soaring into the sky, its tail flames like fire, and the empress sits on a white lion, her phoenix robe is so bright that people dare not look directly at it.

This is the legendary Empress Mingde?
So small, how can it be so scary?

The kneeling officials boldly exchanged glances and began to regret it.

Fenghai?Not welcome?Bullying her as a powerless orphan?

It's over, it's all over now.

Some people quietly looked up on the high platform, meaning don't be afraid, they didn't look at the Sea Dragon King and didn't pay attention to the Empress.

Twelve States is a place that advocates force, so what if the emperor comes, everything is still done with fists, after all, who can beat the Sea Dragon King?

Thinking of this, these officials suddenly gained a little confidence.

She's just a bully little girl, she's not afraid.

All these fantasies ended when the white lion stopped in front of everyone.

The eunuch who came out of the dragon boat first shook his head and sang loudly: "Bye."

"Long live your majesty, long live, long live!"

"Goodbye-"

"Three salutes—"

At the end of the three worships, it should be the empress who said that she would be exempt from courtesy, but the empress did not speak for a long time, but led her three pets to walk around them.

Among them, a bold official tilted his head quietly, and met the empress's half-smile gaze, his heart suddenly turned cold——

The next moment, he felt that his belt was caught by something, and he went up to the sky: "Ah——"

With a scream, the official was caught by the rattlesnake's belt and lifted up high.

All eyes turned involuntarily.

Tangtang looked up at him: "Who are you?"

"Wei Wei, Wei Chen's southeast prefecture, Zhizhi Zhifu, Gai Gai Xu..."

"You're still a magistrate, did you sincerely bow down to me just now?" Tangtang motioned Rattlesnake to put him down a little bit, and asked while looking into his eyes.

Gai Xu's face was pale, and his hands and feet kept shaking: "If you go back to your majesty, the loyalty of this minister to your majesty can be learned from heaven and earth..."

Tangtang looked up at the sky, and looked down at the ground:

"The world saw it just now. You stopped my dragon boat at sea. You also said that the Sea Dragon King took a concubine and would welcome you in three days. Who are you loyal to?"

Gai Xu burst into tears and snotted his nose: "This, this is not the meaning of Wei Chen, Wei Chen is just invited to watch the beauty pageant, it means the capital of Dongzhou and Nanzhou."

Tangtang asked the rattlesnake to throw him back to his original position and kneel down, then turned to look at the crowd of kneeling crowds:

"Where are the prefects of Dongzhou and Nanzhou, come out and take a few steps?"

Among the kneeling crowd, two figures squirmed twice, saluting one after the other:

"Weichen Ni Daren, Prefect of Dongzhou Prefecture/Weichen Zheng Kuan, Prefect of Nanzhou Prefecture pays homage to Your Majesty."

Tangtang pointed at his chin and looked at them:

"In the past three years, the taxes paid by your two state capitals have been equal to those of the other three state capitals. The two love ministers have outstanding political achievements, but I didn't expect them to be more courageous."

"My minister is terrified, but I dare not. Your Majesty forgives me."

The two people were so scared by the big snakes on the left and right that their faces were pale, and their heads were almost smashed.

"Aren't you very arrogant when you sent the message just now?"

Tangtang sighed: "Now that I see Qingyun Huolong's muzzle, I change my face. Is heroism as agreed, and force is the most important thing?"

The two magistrates only had to kowtow: "Your Majesty calm down, minister, minister is also for the sake of the people, Sea Dragon King protects the safety of the twelve prefectures, this is..."

"What about others?"

The two prefects pointed to the high platform together: "It's just..."

Before that word is spoken, people are stupid.

There was no one on the high platform, the so-called Sea Dragon King had already left.
