Luoyang, the imperial capital, extends a hundred miles to the north on the scale of the original city construction, and a new city is being born.

In order to fit the Emperor Dade and Dawei, who would ascend the throne three days later, the Middle-earth Empire was completely restructured, and Luoyang was also renamed Badu.

The Huangfu family used a lot of manpower and material resources to build a magnificent palace in the north of the original Luoyang in a very short period of time.

It will be the new palace and will be officially opened three days later when the new emperor ascends the throne.

Although the palace will not be opened until three days later, the new royal family has already arrived here in large numbers.

These days, outside the new palace, there is an endless stream of cars and horses from all over the mainland, and almost every member of the emperor's family is in an endless stream of visitors.

There is no other reason, the new emperor ascended the throne, the situation in the government and the opposition changed greatly, everyone was in danger, and tried to understand the new emperor's policy by contacting the royal family to keep their own safety.

At this moment, inside the new city, outside the palace of Huangfu Li, a group of tall stone men are particularly conspicuous, and they have been waiting here for a long time.

"Young master, we have been waiting outside for three hours, and several groups of people from the human race arrived later than us, but they entered this palace earlier, which is obviously deliberately snubbing our clan!"

Several Shi Clan people said angrily.

"The new emperor ascends the throne, and Huangfu Li, as the eldest son of Huangfu Wuji, that is, the future crown prince, will naturally have more guests. Be patient, as the messenger of the Western Desert, he will always see us. ”

Shi Jian, the young master of the Shi clan, said calmly, calming the emotions of the clansmen, but he couldn't stop worrying in the depths of his eyes.

The situation of the Middle-earth Empire has undergone major changes, and the emperor Wuji ascended the throne and invited all ethnic groups on the mainland to participate in the enthronement ceremony.

As the young master of the Western Desert Stone Clan, he has a noble bloodline, and he happened to be studying in Kyushu, so he was sent here by the clan, ostensibly to participate in the enthronement ceremony, but in fact, it was to inquire about the next move of the Huangfu family.

It is rumored that Huangfu Wuji has just unified Kyushu and the Dark World, and his next move is to sweep through all races and unify the entire continent.

And he specially invited all ethnic groups on the mainland to the enthronement ceremony, I am afraid that he also has ulterior motives, I am afraid that there is a sense of demonstration.

The high-ranking members of the Shi clan have been worried about the powerful Huangfu family in recent days, and as an important member of the clan, he naturally wants to share the worries of the clan.

Shi Jian had already thought about what he would do when he met the Emperor Fu Li, and he hoped to become a friendly messenger between the two ethnic groups, enhance mutual understanding, and maintain the hard-won peace.

It's just that he didn't expect that he came here early in the morning to wait, but the emperor never saw him, but several waves of guests who came later were received.

He knew that this was intentional neglect, but he could only control his temperament to appease the people who were so irritable.

"Young Master Shi, please come in. ”

After a few more hours, it was getting dark, and no one in the palace came to call Shi Jian and the others.

Shi Jian's expression couldn't help but perk, and he entered the palace of Huangfu Li under the leadership of the eunuch.

The buildings on this road are magnificent, and the carvings are extremely luxurious, and Shi Jian is secretly frightened.

It has only been a long time since the Huangfu family was on the throne, and not only has a new palace been successfully built, but it has also been made so magnificent, I am afraid that the manpower and material resources consumed are unimaginable.

He couldn't help but think of coming to Luoyang from the True Martial Arts Academy all the way, and saw several waves of victims fleeing from Luoyang.

Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road.

When the new emperor ascended the throne, he did not know how to sympathize with the people of Limin, but instead built a large number of buildings, making the people's livelihood miserable.

He didn't dare to discuss whether this was desirable, and after entering the palace, he finally met the new crown prince of the imperial dynasty.

This Huangfu Li is already middle-aged, and his whole face is radiant at the moment, his eyebrows are dancing, but he looks a little fat and big-eared, and his face is full of oil.

Shi Jian couldn't help but compare him with the old prince Ji Zefang he had seen, and only felt that the two were worlds apart in terms of temperament and appearance.

"You are Shi Jian, the young master of the Shi Clan?"

Huangfu Li was sitting in his place and was eating, and when he saw Shi Jian, he asked casually.

He didn't get up, he looked extremely sluggish, Shi Jian remembered that when he met Ji Zefang by chance at the True Martial Arts Academy, the other party was like a humble gentleman, and when the two of them were compared, even the etiquette was a big difference.

The name of this Huangfu Li has the word "Li", but it gives him a rather arrogant feeling, and he regrets the death of the crown prince Ji Zefang very much in his heart.

Shi Jian deliberately greeted the Huangfu with the etiquette of the human race and introduced himself.

Huangfu Li couldn't help but smile when he saw that he was polite. "I heard that the young master of the Shi clan is not like the ordinary Shi clan barbaric and rude, but today I saw that it was really like this. Just sit down and eat together. ”

Shi Jian sat down when he heard this, and the Shi people behind him had angry faces.

The other party's words seemed to praise their young master, but they satirized the entire Shi clan!

"I heard that Young Master Shi has been committed to the exchanges and exchanges between your and my clans, and even said that he would open up a large area of oasis in the Western Desert, so that the human race would have a place in the Western Desert, I don't know if this matter is true or not?"

Exquisite dishes were brought to the table, and Huang Fuli asked with a smile.

"Indeed, we have reached a preliminary cooperation intention with the Shenmu Sect, hoping to use the next five to ten years to transform the harsh environment of the Western Desert, so that all ethnic groups have a good living space in the Western Desert. ”

Shi Jian nodded hurriedly and said at the same time. "The new emperor ascends the throne, and this matter will still need the strong support of the Middle-earth court, and I hope that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can say a few kind words in front of the new emperor to promote this matter. ”

"Well, Young Master Shi's ideal is great. ”

Huangfu Li smiled, but there was mockery in the depths of his eyes.

In his opinion, the other party's idea is simply whimsical, and the heart of the non-mine race must be different, who wants to live with the vulgar and lowly Shi clan?

He already knew his father's thoughts about the Western Desert Stone Clan, the Western Desert has extremely rich mineral resources, and it must be taken, as for the Western Desert Stone Clan, his father has never taken it seriously.

Because he understood his father's attitude towards the Shi clan, Huangfu Li also felt a little contempt, especially this Shi Jian was so young and silly that he was cute, and he couldn't help but have the idea of teasing.

"Although Shi Shaozhu's ideals are good, different ethnic groups must understand each other, not just words, but also actions. ”

"For example, there is a saying in my human race that the villagers follow the customs, since Master Shi has come to me, he should drink the same table of wine and eat the same table of food with me, so that we can understand each other, right?"

Huang Fuli glanced at the delicacies in front of Shi Jian with a smile and motioned for him to move his chopsticks.

"This ......"

Shi Jian understood what he meant, and couldn't help but hesitate.

Everyone knows that the Western Desert Stone Clan can't eat the food of the Terrans, they live on ores, if they eat the food of the Terrans, they will have diarrhea at the lightest, and their lives will be at worst.

Shi Jian's cultivation is strong, and it is impossible to lose his life by eating a little Terran food, but eating this kind of food is no different from eating rancid water for him.

"What's the matter, Young Master Shi keeps saying that he wants to enhance the friendship between you and my race, but he doesn't even want to eat the food of my human race? ”

Huang Fuli shook his head and sighed.

When Shi Jian heard this, he gritted his teeth and reluctantly smiled.

"I'll eat, and I'll taste the food of the human race today. ”

He learned how to use chopsticks from the Terrans, and the Shi Clansmen behind him were shocked.
