Chapter 257 Foreign Envoy
"This is what my father's father left behind. He believed in reincarnation, but I know that when you die, you are dead and there will be no second chance."
"Then this god is indeed of no great use." The woman known as Olina smiled slightly, her hair shrouded in soft light, like a waterfall composed of silver threads. "Gods must demonstrate their power and protect the world before they are worthy of being followed and worshiped by the world. How about you join us and become a believer of the sun god Hera?"
"This is not one of the conditions of the transaction, so I still waive it." Ning Weiyuan refused, "You and I can reach an agreement because we each have needs, not because of God's instructions. I can't see this pairing. Is there any benefit to me? When I encounter a problem, if I call it, it will appear in the world and help me achieve my wish?"
Olina shook her head.
"Then it's no different than this statue."
"You are wrong. Faith is an extremely important and extremely useful thing." She corrected this statement. "It can weaken people's fear of death and enhance people's confidence in overcoming difficulties. More importantly, when When your people all believe in the same god, they will naturally become your arms and legs - because your status is more noble and you are naturally closer to the gods, this will make your throne indestructible to those who covet it. It will be despised by believers.”
It sounds very good, but is the throne given by blood or by gods? Ning Weiyuan sarcastically thought that uninformed people might be fooled, but this argument was not valid for him.
On the contrary, it also reminded him that even if he is allowed to preach in the future, he will have to arrange for people to keep a careful eye on him.
"Let's talk about it later when we have a chance. Anyway, I will fulfill my promise. As for the specific effect, it depends on you." Ning Wei was far from going to continue chatting, "There are countless gods spread here, but in the end, only the statues can be left behind. Just one or two.”
"Your consent is enough." Olina stroked her chest and bowed slightly.
"By the way, there will be no problem with your magic, right?" Ning Weiyuan asked again, which was also the question he cared about most, "The enthronement ceremony will be held years ago, and my father must appear in front of everyone. Although most of the Privy Council has gone out, there will probably still be alchemists present."
"My technique does not turn him into a puppet, nor does it force him to make a decision. It is just some small hints at most." Olina smiled, "It will not leave any residue on the surface of the body. As long as you don't let those alchemists get close to His Majesty, there will be no problem with it."
"Are you sure it's harmless?"
"Promise in the name of Hera." The woman affirmed, "Please rest assured, His Highness the Crown Prince... No, His Majesty the Emperor."
Ning Weiyuan nodded. Although this was a question he had already received a positive answer to, he still couldn't help but ask it every time he saw the other person.
"You did very well."
"This is our sincerity. In addition..." Olina took out an ornament inlaid with red crystal from her arms, "Please take this with you. It is an amulet that contains the power of Hera. I believe it can keep you safe in times of crisis.”
"It's not a surveillance device?" Ning Weiyuan didn't bother to pretend in front of her.
"You are joking. Cooperation is a long-term matter, and there is no need for me to destroy my future."
He took the ornament and said, "Thank you very much for your kindness."
Olina raised the corners of her mouth, her red lips as eye-catching as flames.
This woman... is actually somewhat alluring.
However, now was the critical time for succession, and it would obviously be inappropriate to have a quarrel with his partners, so he suppressed this thought deep in his heart.
"Leave the palace through the back door. I have arranged for guards to escort you." Ning Weiyuan turned around and walked out of the main hall. "Don't leave the gate of Honglu Temple these days. I can find you if there is something urgent."
"May the light of the Sun God shine on the road under your feet." Olina bowed and saluted.
She murmured softly until the prince's figure disappeared.
"The god cannot appear in the world because our voice is not strong enough. But as its light spreads across the earth, sooner or later you will witness its arrival."
…
In a busy street in Shangyuan City.
Feinian sat in front of the tea stall, pretending to drink herbal tea from the cup, but his eyes glanced at the gate of Honglu Temple from time to time.
Suddenly, an inconspicuous carriage stopped at the entrance of the courtyard, and a woman walked out of the carriage. She didn't stop for long, quickly passed through the gate and disappeared into the courtyard wall, but in this moment, Fei Nian had clearly captured the other party's appearance.
That was none other than the envoy of the Kingdom of Heros, Olina Okan. Translated in Qiguo dialect, the former can be called the Kingdom of the Holy Wing Islands, and the surname Okan means sharp teeth.
There are many people who come in and out of the compound every day, but there are only a few that are worth writing down.
Olina is one of them.
He patted the person next to him and said, "Go and find out where this carriage came from."
After his men left, Fei Nian looked at the middle-aged man sitting opposite him - he looked just like a village man. Not only was he dressed plainly, he even had sparse stubble on his face. I'm afraid no one would have thought that , this person is one of the main combat forces left in the capital, "Qian" who is in the position of Hagoromo. "Master Qian, what do you think? According to the registration at Honglu Temple, this person is also a Qi-sensing person, but in the West End, they call this power magic power."
"Four envoys, all four are Qi-sensing people. This Western Kingdom is really interesting." The man kept his eyes on the courtyard wall, as if these walls could not block his sight. "You don't need to worry about the other three, but this Saint...what is it?"
"Saint Wings Islands Kingdom."
"Shitty name, just call it Islands Kingdom." He spat, "Don't meet the envoy of this kingdom casually."
"Is she unusual?" Fei Nian was a little surprised.
"Uncommon, or very difficult to deal with." Qian nodded, "If you think it is necessary to take action, it is best to tell me in advance, and it is best to wait until the second prince comes back."
Even Yu Yi thought so, Fei Nian couldn't help but be more curious about this person.
"By the way, you haven't been to the Privy Council today, right? There is a letter from Ning Qianshi, written to you, I saw it and took it by the way."
Fei Nian took it, and after confirming that it was not a secret letter, he opened the seal on the spot.
The first thing was about Luo Qingqing.
It seems that His Highness Ning received his report. In the subsequent investigation, it was confirmed that Luo Yufei's plan had failed and Luo Qingqing's whereabouts were unknown.
The second prince hoped that he would continue to look for the whereabouts of the woman from the Luo family and try to save her disappointment in the Privy Council.
"You can tell her that the structure of the Luo family has undergone earth-shaking changes, and the old Privy Council is about to usher in a reform. As long as she is willing, the Privy Council can arrange a position that best suits her ability."
Fei Nian couldn't help rubbing his forehead.
"Why, is it difficult to handle?" Qian Rao looked at him with interest.
"It was my negligence. I was too brief when reporting to His Highness." Because he thought that the experience of the other two Luo family disciples was a trivial matter, he did not mention it in the report, which resulted in a deviation in His Highness' understanding. Now even if Luo Qingqing stood in front of him, he thought it would be good if he was not stabbed to death by the other party. "I will find another opportunity to explain to His Highness."
The second thing actually talked about Xia Fan.
"It's strange. There was no information about him in the message you sent recently, but according to Heer's calculation, his name moved up two places. Now, this person is fourth in the list."
