Chapter 230: [Daliao Shaman]
Xiao Yuan slowly followed behind the two of them, seeing Wanyan Baoding and Avril Lavigne, two once incompatible enemies, could be so close one day, he was very surprised.
For Xiao Yuan, this is not a good thing.
Wanyan Baoding is the confidant of Xiao Yu, the lord of Liaoyang County, and he is in charge of the military power in Liaoyang County.
And Avril is the future shaman heir of the shaman saint of Daliao, and her status in the hearts of the Liao people is extremely lofty.
If the two join forces, it will be easy to suppress the own imperial power.
Xiao Yuan's political sense instinctively wanted to stop the alliance between the two. He took a few steps forward quickly to hear what the two were talking about and why they seemed so close.
When Xiao Yuan got closer and closer to Irene, he finally gradually understood why this shaman and saintess has such magical powers and can make so many people surrender.
Irene was wearing a pure white wolf fur shawl, and a pair of pure white transparent stockings on her slender legs. This bold and avant-garde mix-and-match style was very popular among young men and women in Daliao.
But now most of the upper-class figures in Daliao are learning from the long robes and sleeves of the Song Dynasty, and even the upper-class women wrap themselves tightly in wide sleeves.
Xiao Yu's eclectic and unexpected dressing style is very rare, and Avril Lavigne's bold outfit has attracted a lot of people's attention.
Coupled with the unique smell of lavender perfume on her body, even Xiao Yuan, who has seen countless beauties, couldn't help but fall for her.
However, even though he was attracted by Avril Lavigne, he still did not forget his purpose of returning to Yanjing City.
Compared with Avril Lavigne, a shaman saint, Zhao Anning, who is the princess of the Song Dynasty, is obviously more attractive to Xiao Yuan.
After a while, the three stood side by side.
"See Your Highness the Prince."
"See Your Highness the Prince."
"General Wanyan, Your Majesty the Holy Maiden, long time no see, don't come back here."
The two curtseyed to Xiao Yuan, Xiao Yuan said.
Before the palace gate, Wanyan Baoding and Avril saw Xiao Yuan's figure, and replied respectfully.
Didn't do too many pleasantries, the two of them have important things to do here.
The last time Avril went to Liaoyang County to look for Xiao Yu, but unexpectedly was blocked by the soldiers guarding the city. After revealing her own identity, she was secretly summoned by Wanyan Baoding.
From Wanyan Baoding's mouth, Avril learned that Xiao Yu was captured by Su Ning and sent to Snow Mountain Castle.
After learning the truth, Avril was furious and threatened to break down the Snow Mountain Castle and tear Su Ning into pieces.
Unexpectedly, when they were about to send troops, they were stopped by Wanyan Baoding.
Although that Su Ning annoyed Wanyan Baoding, Wanyan Baoding was very afraid of Su Ning's strength.
So after discussing, the two decided to temporarily put aside their previous suspicions in order to rescue Xiao Yu, and came to Yanjing together, under the pretext of conquering Song, and took the opportunity to attack Su Ning's Snow Mountain Castle sandwiched in the border.
The three of them came to the court together.
Today's court meeting was personally presided over by Emperor Xiao Qingyun of the Liao Kingdom.
Xiao Qingyun is the emperor of Daliao who belonged to the Realm of Soul Sea with the emperor of Song Dynasty Zhao Lixia, and the growth experiences of the two are also extremely similar.
All of them have risen steadily from the crown prince, their own natural capital is very outstanding, coupled with the help of Heavenly and Mortal Treasures from the royal family, their cultivation speed is far faster than that of cultivators of the same generation, and they have grown into soul sea realm powerhouses all the way.
Moreover, Xiao Qingyun and Zhao Lixia have another very similarity, that is, they were both Moon Zun's suitors when they were young.
It's just that at that time Xiao Qingyun took advantage of the opportunity to pursue Jiang Qingxue under the guise of pursuing Yue Zun, thinking of having both women.
The end result was that the bamboo basket fetched water in vain, neither Yuezun nor Jiang Qingxue got one.
And his deadly rival back then, Zhao Lixia was not much better than him, and was finally ruthlessly abandoned by Yue Zun, and even staged a good show with his new love Su Ning in front of him, which can be said to be murderous and heartbreaking .
If they found out now that both Jiang Qingxue and Yue Zun were contracted by Su Ning alone, they would be even more furious.
The coercion of the two emperors of the Soul Sea Realm is enough to kill an ordinary Dao Palace Realm powerhouse hundreds of times.
Today in court, Xiao Qingyun was obviously a little surprised to see the shaman saint Avril and the general Wanyan Baoding of Liaoyang County standing side by side.
Raising his eyebrows, his eyes shifted to the Daliao shaman beside him.
It was a woman wrapped in black and white feathers, with thick oil paint on her face, making it difficult to see her expression and appearance clearly.
She is serious, holding a black scepter in her hand, with a trace of a star and a moon hanging on it, symbolizing the primitive worship of the Liao people, full of supreme majesty.
In Daliao, the shaman's status among the people was second only to the emperor, and in some tribes with a low level of civilization, the shaman in charge of sacrifices was even more important than the emperor.
This delicate relationship had to be taken very seriously by the emperor.
"Your Excellency Shaman, your hand is stretching a little too far."
"I can turn a blind eye to your recruitment of believers in the capital, but the army on the border should not interfere."
Xiao Qingyun squinted his eyes and knocked on the shaman beside him.
Although the opponent's status is lofty, but he is only a strong man in the Dao Palace realm. If he really turns his face and fights, the shaman can't be the opponent of the Daliao Emperor at all.
It's just that the Emperor Daliao's killing of the shaman might cause civil turmoil. Although it would be very troublesome to Xiao Qingyun, if the two sides were to die, the royal family would experience turmoil, but the shaman would undoubtedly die.
Xiao Qingyun could tolerate the shaman's gathering of believers in Yanjing City on weekdays, but he absolutely couldn't indulge in the issue of intervening in the frontier army to try to seize power.
Sensing Xiao Qingyun's sharp gaze, the shaman immediately knelt down in a panic and explained,
"Your Majesty the Emperor, I swear to heaven that I have no affection for the saint."
"Your Majesty, please give me another chance. I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly and give Your Majesty an explanation."
The shaman said respectfully, his voice trembling slightly, and the back of his neck was sweating.
She knew that although she had a high status in the hearts of the people of Daliao.
It seems that the emperor will not touch himself, but that is only because of his own status, not his own strength.
It really drove Xiao Qingyun into a hurry, so he killed himself directly, and it would be fine to change someone else to be a shaman.
What the Liao people need is the position of shaman as a sustenance of faith, not her.
It really doesn't matter who is the shaman.
And Avril Lavigne is obviously not the only shaman heir.
If her explanation later could not satisfy herself and His Majesty the Emperor, in order to express her loyalty to Xiao Qingyun, she would not mind directly replacing Avril, the shaman heir.
At this time, Avril Lavigne is not most concerned about this matter, Xiao Yu's whereabouts is what she is most worried about.
