The Demon Queen of Divine Doctor is not to be trifled with

Chapter 638: Emperor’s Red Invitation

The next morning, the inner city of Lin'an was like a red rain. Postcards glowing red were sent into every mansion.

At the Yanhua Palace banquet, the Emperor used magic to send invitations to all officials and their families in Beijing.

The entire inner city of Lin'an was in an uproar!

Although what they received this time was not a jade invitation, it was an invitation transformed by magic. When the invitation with red light fell into the hands of each family head, their hands were shaking and their souls felt a huge shock.

This was their first time to come into direct contact with magic. To them, magic that only existed in legends was a complete myth. Many people, like Su Yuanren, even suspected that the existence of the Emperor was just a lie made up by the royal family. Even on New Year's Day, the Emperor used magic to transform into a shield that covered the entire Lin'an City, they still only regarded the shield as a celestial wonder, deceiving themselves that it was not the Emperor's magic.

As for the Emperor who personally attended the ascension of the new emperor, and the Emperor who paraded through the streets of Lin'an Inner City a few days ago to vent Ye Wenyan's anger, many people also conceded that he was just an "actor". But since the royal family acknowledged this actor, they had to acknowledge him as well.

In fact, it is normal for people to have such thoughts, just like Su Yuanren has such thoughts, which is also normal. After all, Shi Liyuan has rarely appeared in the past few hundred years. Sometimes a generation has only seen him once at most, or even a generation has died out, and there is no chance to see him, let alone see Shi Liyuan perform magic.

This kind of thing is too far away from people's lives, so far that it is unreal, so it leads to many kinds of speculations.

But today, when the note fell into their hands, all their conjectures were shattered by reality. Many people knelt down at home, holding the red note to their hearts, and cried out with tears in their eyes: "The Emperor is real!" From this moment on, the mental outlook of the officials of Northern Qi was different. No matter which camp they stood in before or what position they held, at this moment they all belonged to Shi Liyuan's camp and were proud that Northern Qi had the Emperor.

Many officials already knew about the arrival of Crown Prince Su Yuan, and at first they were a little worried, fearing that Su Yuan would suddenly come to the capital with bad intentions. But now all these worries are gone, after all, Lord Emperor is here, and under Lord Emperor's nose, how can Su Yuan still turn the world upside down? Even if there is a high priest, that priest cannot compare with the emperor.

With such a feeling, people respectfully took the invitation to the most important room in every household. Some put it in the ancestral hall for their ancestors to see, some put it on the incense table and planned to worship three times a day in the future, and some simply carried it with them, saying that they wanted to feel the care of the emperor anytime and anywhere. Everyone also unanimously decided that this invitation would be treated as a family heirloom and passed down from generation to generation.

Prince Su Yuan and his group also received the invitation, which was delivered to Lou Qinghan in the same way.

By the time the post arrived, A'man had regained her youthful appearance and was trying to find a way to treat Lou Qinghan's hair.

She used magic, then medicine, then poison, and finally bit her tongue to force out a drop of blood from the tip of her tongue to stimulate the magic, but it was a pity that it had no effect. Lou Qinghan's hair was still black, smooth and shiny, without a single strand of white hair.

If this kind of hair was given to an ordinary person, that person would definitely be happy because the hair quality is so good. But when it was on Lou Qinghan's head, Lou Qinghan wanted to commit suicide. He smashed all the mirrors in the room, but his hair was too long and would come to his body when he moved, so smashing the mirrors was useless. He could still see the black hair.

The palace servants of Northern Qi tried to pick up the mirrors on the ground while advising him: "Your Highness, if you want to lose your temper, you should find another way. Throwing things all the time will not solve the problem. These mirrors are made of fine copper. Although they will not break, they have become deformed and can no longer reflect people. These are all losses for Northern Qi. Even though Northern Qi is a big family, it should not be harmed like this."

After saying that, he glanced at Lou Qinghan and added, "Especially not to be harmed by an outsider!"

Lou Qinghan rushed over in a flash, stretched out his hand, grabbed the palace servant's neck tightly, and lifted the person up.

"A slave dares to teach this prince a lesson? People from Northern Qi, are you tired of living?"

The palace servant was also startled, but after coming to his senses, his anger offset some of his fear, and he immediately retorted: "Even if you are tired of living, it is not the right of Crown Prince Su Yuan to take my life! Your Highness, please always remember your identity. You are Crown Prince Su Yuan, not me, the Crown Prince of Northern Qi; I am a servant of Northern Qi, not your servant Su Yuan. So you can't control me, let alone kill me. All the masters of Northern Qi are protective of their shortcomings. Believe it or not, if you touch me today, you will definitely not be able to leave the palace alive. And as the Empress said yesterday, none of you Su Yuan dares to avenge you!"

Lou Qinghan was so angry that his face turned pale, and he increased the strength of his hands, "I want to see, if I kill you, will your master take my life for a servant!" He pinched her as he said, and saw that the palace maid was about to roll her eyes.

At this time, the witch doctor walked forward and tapped Lou Qinghan's wrist.

Lou Qinghan lost his strength instantly, his five fingers loosened, and the palace maid fell to the ground with a thump.

Lou Qinghan was puzzled: "Why did the witch doctor stop me? He was just a palace slave, so he could be killed. How could the Northern Qi royal family turn against Su Yuan because of a palace slave? The witch doctor is probably being too cautious and is destroying my prestige."

The witch doctor looked at him and shook his head. "Your Highness cannot kill people in Northern Qi. All the current events show that the people of Northern Qi have not given me, Su Yuan, any face. Although we came here uninvited, the attitude of the people of Northern Qi is too tough. The reason why they are so tough is that they are confident. With the Emperor here, the people of Northern Qi have the capital to destroy Su Yuan's prestige."

"The witch doctor wants Xiao Wang to bear it?" Lou Qinghan pulled his hair, "Look at Xiao Wang's black hair. How can I go back to Su Yuan with hair like this? How can I explain to the people of Su Yuan?" He looked at Ah Man again, "What did you say yesterday? When you recover, you can heal this hair for me. What do you say now?"

Ah Man frowned, not knowing what to say. Lou Qinghan's hair made her feel anxious, a kind of anxiety she had never felt since she became the high priestess. She even felt that her life was threatened. The journey to Northern Qi, which she had originally been full of confidence in, had now become like walking on thin ice, and it was difficult to move forward.

"Don't worry, Your Highness. We won't be returning yet. There will always be a way." She comforted Lou Qinghan, and was also comforting herself.

Just as she said this, she suddenly had a strange feeling. Following this feeling, Ah Man turned her head and saw a red shadow flying in from the door and landing steadily in Lou Qinghan's hand. At the same time, there was a voice with pressure - "Tomorrow, Yanhua Palace will hold a banquet. Prince Su Yuan, the priest, and the witch doctor are invited to attend."

The three of them were not surprised. After this sentence was spoken, they knelt down involuntarily. Lou Qinghan even replied, "Yes, sir!" As soon as these words were spoken, the pressure disappeared instantly, and the voice did not appear again. Only the invitation card in Lou Qinghan's hand was still glowing red, beautiful and dazzling.

The palace servant who was being strangled also became more alert. He was almost strangled to death just now. He thought he would go to see the King of Hell if he said a few more words. Unexpectedly, the Emperor's voice swept over him and cured the discomfort caused by being strangled. It was really magical.

He knelt down in the direction of Yanhua Palace and kowtowed several times, then turned back and said to Lou Qinghan: "Prince Su Yuan, you see! As long as our Emperor is here, you can't persecute the people of Northern Qi in this palace!"

Lou Qinghan was completely stunned. He didn't bother to pay attention to the palace servant and just stared blankly at the red card in his hand.

The post was still glowing, and this light shocked him while making him more and more panicked.

He asked Aman: "Is this spiritual power?"

Ah Man had never seen real spiritual power, but she was a priestess, and inherited the lineage of illusion, so naturally she could sense it more strongly than Lou Qinghan. She leaned forward, looked for a while, nodded, and said weakly: "Yes, it is spiritual power."

Pah! Lou Qinghan slapped her in the face - "Didn't you say that there is no spiritual power in this world? Didn't you say that there is no emperor in this world? You said so much in Su Yuan, why is it completely different from what you said when you came to Bei Qi?"

A'man was beaten so hard that blood came out of the corner of her mouth. The witch doctor came forward to help her, but she gently pushed him away and knelt down in front of Lou Qinghan again: "Your Highness, please calm down. Although things are very different from what we imagined before, please rest assured that even if the Emperor is here in Northern Qi, we will not necessarily lose. Don't forget, the lineage of the high priest has a legacy."

"Aman!" The witch doctor suddenly widened his eyes and looked at his daughter in horror. "Aman, think twice."

Ah Man smiled, "There is nothing to think twice about. I am the high priest. Learning those skills means that sooner or later I will have to use them. Don't worry, father, I will do my best to save my life and to let you leave safely." She looked at Lou Qinghan again, "Your Highness, even if your hair color cannot be restored, if we can eliminate that emperor on this trip, you will still be a great hero of Suyuan. As for me... If I really can't get out of Northern Qi alive, please burn my bones and take my ashes to Suyuan. I want to enter the ancestral hall of the high priest lineage, and I want the people of Suyuan to remember me from generation to generation. Your Highness, if you can promise me, I will risk my life to touch that emperor!"

Ah Man prepared for the worst. She was waiting for Lou Qinghan to give her an answer. But before Lou Qinghan could say anything, she heard another palace servant from Northern Qi outside saying, "Prince Su Yuan, the Imperial Academy's lecturer, Master Shen, wants you to go over and attend his class immediately!"
