All the machines sounded alarms, and the sharp beeping sound made Shen Ningning think that the place was about to explode.

Although she didn’t understand what was going on, she could guess a thing or two. Perhaps some of the equipment in Lei Palace was damaged?

 She didn't know how to operate it at all, and panic appeared on her pretty face.

At that moment, she only thought, if the Thunder Palace and the fairyland were destroyed, would she still have a chance to see her mother?

  Shen Ningning ran back and forth in front of various instruments, trying to think of a way to solve this problem.

The entire Thunder Palace began to shake, and then there was a "rustling" movement from somewhere.

 An instrument kept flashing alarms and red lights next to Shen Ningning.

Sudden!

 An unfamiliar and firm female voice seemed to come from the sky or the void——

 “Ning Ning?”

Shen Ningning was suddenly startled. She raised her head suddenly and looked around.

 “Mother! Is it you, mother?”

The sizzling sound was full of interference. Shen Ningning eagerly called back and forth in front of each instrument: "Mother, I am Ningning, mother, where are you?"

no respond.

 Until the instrument’s alarm sounds stopped one after another.

 The entire Lei Palace returned to calm.

Shen Ningning's dark eyes were filled with tears of excitement.

 It must have been her mother calling her just now!

 So, my mother is not dead, can they see each other again?

Shen Ningning couldn't wait to leave the fairyland and wanted to find Master Gu to ask why this situation happened.

 But as soon as she walked out of the screen, she bumped into Ye Changyi who was looking for her.

“Ning Ning, there’s a noise outside.”

 “What’s going on?” The girl frowned.

 “It seems that the Changliu Kingdom sent an envoy to say that they want to congratulate you on getting hairpins.”

It has been many years since Changliu Kingdom was defeated.

 They have been doing little things over the years, trying to please Cangyun Kingdom in every possible way.

 But Xie Suzhi suggested that the emperor ignore it.

“The Changliu Kingdom, which is so vengeful, is admitting its mistake and apologizing now, not because they really regret it, but because they want to lie dormant. Once they have the opportunity, they will definitely counterattack.”

 Hence, the emperor's attitude towards Changliu Kingdom has always been to ignore it.

They would send envoys to deliver gifts almost every year, but the envoys could not even see the emperor.

Shen Ningning's eyes darkened: "Go out and take a look."

 Everyone quickly followed her and rushed to the front hall together.

 The Xie family, headed by Xie Suzhi, had already blocked the door.

 The guests gathered around with cold eyes.

“Thank you, Prime Minister, our King of the Sun learned about Princess Funing and the hairpin, and specially asked the ministers to come with congratulatory gifts.”

The leader of the envoy from the Changliu Kingdom is Xiumu. He has a round face, small eyes, a mustache, and a hypocritical smile.

Xie Suzhi is nearly fifty years old, but he is still tall and tall, as straight as jade.

 He glanced at the six large open boxes behind Hideki.

 It is filled with antlers and other rare treasures.

Xie Suzhi's tone was cold, showing a sternness that was not angry but self-defeating.

“My daughter has nothing to do with you, let alone accept your gifts, so please go back to where you came from.”

Hideki was not angry when he was humiliated in public. Instead, he smiled and handed over his hand.

“Your Majesty, Prime Minister, Your Highness the Princess may like the gifts we bring. Why don’t you let us meet?”

Xie Mingxu took a step forward, his aura was cold and stern, and his whole body was filled with the murderous aura infiltrated from the battlefield.

Seeing him, Xiumu took half a step back with lingering fear, his eyes rolling around, not knowing what bad idea he had.

Xie Mingxu said in a tough tone: "Either you leave, or I beat you out. It's your choice."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Mingan took the guard's sword from the side and handed it to his elder brother. Hideki frowned.

 He looked at the Xie family in private.

Brothers Xie Mingxu and Xie Ming'an are both good at martial arts. They stand next to Xie Suzhi on the left and the right and are not easy to mess with.

Second Master Xie was not a vegetarian either. His fists were clenched and his son Xu Jingxi behind him seemed to be coming up with some clever ideas, whispering a few words in Mr. Xie's ear.

I saw Mr. Xie looking at Xiumu's legs with a faint murderous look.

Hideki was startled.

 Are they planning to make him disabled and then drive him out?

The one with the most hateful eyes was Fang Qingdai.

The Changliu Kingdom worked together to kill General Liang, but they haven't settled the account yet!

If she hadn't considered that today was an important day for Shen Ningning, she would have been the first to take action.

 Xie Suzhi raised his hand to stop everyone's anger.

“Today is a feast for Ning Ning, everything should be auspicious, and it is not suitable to see blood.”

 After saying this, the tense atmosphere in the scene subsided.

"Dad, don't worry about me. I am a young man from Chang Liu Kingdom. He once hurt my famous general and caused so many people to be displaced. They are so hateful. I don't want them to appear at my Ji Banquet. Someone comes and beats them out!"

Shen Ningning took Ye Changyi and other ladies around the corner of the corridor.

Everyone looked sideways and saw the girl at the head, who was dressed in a dress as elegant as a giant, with a slim figure, dark eyebrows and red lips.

 When you are not smiling, you look more beautiful and dignified.

As soon as she spoke, the princess's secret guards who were hiding around came out in full force.

 The sword was pointed at the envoy of Changliu Kingdom.

Hideki's expression changed, and he narrowed his eyes with shrewd eyes.

“Your Royal Highness, I, Hideki, have specially come to congratulate you on your hairpins by order of the King of the Sun.”

Shen Ningning ignored them, and the secret guards approached step by step. Hideki and the others could only retreat with difficulty.

Lu Shaoyuan shouted: "Get out! You are not welcome in Cangyun Kingdom."

Behind Hideki was a tall guard with an angry look in his eyes.

At this moment, Xiumu raised his voice, stared at Shen Ningning and said, "Your Highness the Princess may not want to see Chang Liu, but don't you care about the illness of Your Highness the Crown Prince?"

Shen Ningning's watery eyes rippled and she gave him a look as cold as ice.

The secret guard stopped moving.

Hideki smiled secretly: "We know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of your country is suffering from a crazy disease. Coincidentally, our country, Changliu, has a secret medicine to treat this emergency."

Liang Yici angrily scolded: "Lies, you Chang Liu Kingdom are ruthless and unjust people, and they will be punished. We have defeated you, how can you use medicine to save our prince?"

 She looked at Shen Ningning, a little anxiously: "Princess, don't believe them!"

 Hideki was already prepared.

 He waved his hand, and the guard behind him took out a small box from his arms.

 Only the size of a palm.

 After opening it, there was actually a blood-colored pearl as big as a little finger inside.

"General Xie Mingxu and General Xie Dizhi often deal with our country, so they should recognize it. What kind of treasure is this?" Xiu Mupi smiled.

 After Xie Mingxu and Mr. Xie saw it clearly, their expressions changed.

 “Dzi beads?”

 Legends say that Changliu Kingdom was first created by a heavenly being who dropped a pearl, and finally the territory was formed.

 The place where the orb fell turned into a pool of blood.

 After years of accumulation, beads of this color can bloom from the river mussels raised in the depths of the pond.

 The maximum lifespan of a river mussel is only two years, and the maximum lifespan is only five years.

In Changliu Kingdom, it is said that such a bead will only be produced after fifty years.

Zhizhu beads are ground into powder and mixed into medicine, which can make people live longer.

The father of the Great Sun King, the Old Heavenly King, is nearly ninety years old and is still alive. Legend has it that he is relying on the Dzi Bead to prolong his life.
