Suzaku Fury

"Fortunately, in the second year of Linde, the Fuyu clan violated the country. Thanks to the bravery of the Tang navy, they made great achievements in suppressing it. Now that the Baekje Fuyu clan is scattered, I order my Datang navy to return to the court on the same day to receive a reward for meritorious service. This is my honor."

Empress Wu stood in the center of the main hall of Xuanzheng Hall, looking at the dragon chair in the hall, with her hands behind her back.Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Mrs. Lao nodded her head and lowered her eyebrows, followed behind her and waited for orders.

"In the second year of Linde, the people of Dongdao destroyed my warship with the Turtle King and tried to destroy our Tang Dynasty clan with sorcery. Now the thieves in Dongdao have been wiped out and Fuyu has been destroyed. My Tang Dynasty's [-] navy Already on the road to triumph, Di Renjie should also contribute to this."

"...but he traded his life for the life of that firework girl, it's really stupid..."

After finishing speaking, Empress Wu turned slightly sideways, looked at the gate of the palace and asked, "Now, are you still in Dali Temple?"

Mrs. Lao bowed one by one, and replied: "After returning to heaven, I will still serve as the temple minister in Dali Temple."

Hearing this, Empress Wu's expression turned pale, and she took a few steps forward: "Forget it. Di Renjie is still a malleable talent, so it's okay to stay in Dali Temple."

Strolling to the entrance of the hall, Empress Wu stood with her hands behind her back, and asked again, "How many days are there before the Yusi?"

"It's less than a month after returning to heaven."

Wu's back showed joy, and said again: "How is the altar in front of Suzaku's gate?"

Mrs. Lao panicked and almost fell to her knees: "Hui, Hui Tianhou..."

"Trash!" Empress Wu flicked her sleeves vigorously, turned around and walked around Lao Taiyi who was kneeling on the ground, "Order Taichang Temple to present the preparations for the Rain Sacrifice today! The Rain Sacrifice Ceremony and the Victory Ceremony must not be missed!"

Mrs. Lao fell on the ground and hurriedly replied: "I obey the order..."

Empress Wu frowned slightly, moved her fingers and said, "Back off."

"Yes." Mrs. Lao hurriedly got up from the ground, bowed and stepped back.

Empress Wu waved away the maids who were waiting in the hall, stood in the Xuanzheng Hall, looked at the magnificent dragon chair on the hall, and concentrated on herself...

[It's night, in front of the Suzaku gate——]

Chang'an in the second watch is brightly lit, and the bustling Tianjie is full of people. The night sky illuminated by the lights on both sides of the street is as bright as day.

At this time, construction was underway in front of the Suzaku Gate at the south gate of the imperial city, and craftsmen were rushing to work day and night in front of the gate, just to set up the altar and the celebration platform to welcome the triumphant army back to the court before the Lixia Yusi.

Several supervisors gathered around a short table to drink and eat meat, urging the craftsmen to speed up the progress from time to time.

"It's unreasonable. It only urges us to do things. What kind of skill do you know about drinking?!" A sweaty craftsman stopped his work and complained.

A topless craftsman standing next to him smiled and said, "Brother, don't say what you shouldn't say, just work quickly, lest they hear you and ask for trouble..."

"Hey! Over there, you don't want to do it anymore, do you?" A supervisor saw them chatting, threw the meat in his hand and stood up, ready to walk over and reprimand them.

The craftsman who complained just now cursed angrily, and was about to turn around and continue working, but what he saw next shocked him so much that he dropped the hammer in his hand.

The craftsman standing beside him hastily pulled him back: "Brother, what are you doing..." Unexpectedly, he followed his gaze and was also stunned.

Seeing that they ignored the threat, the supervisor who had already stood up cursed even more displeasedly, and was about to walk over with big strides.

"Bird, fire, bird..." The craftsman who had lost his hammer was frightened by the sight before him, speechless.

At the same time, the noisy Suzaku Street was full of noise.

The overseer cursed a few times, kicked the two people who were already kneeling on the ground, and turned around thinking about it, but at the same time, he was so surprised that he forgot to close his mouth.

In the starry sky reflected by the fireworks in the world, a giant bird covered in red flames is flying towards Suzaku Gate with its wings of fire. Its speed cannot be described in words.

The fire in front of him is getting stronger and stronger.Before the supervisor could speak, the giant scarlet flame bird screamed over his head.He was so frightened that his legs went limp, and he knelt down on the ground with a 'plop'.The hot air blown by the pair of fire wings made his mouth dry, and he couldn't move under the strong heat pressure. Even if sparks fell on him, he didn't dare to move, he could only bow his head tremblingly to the fire bird Pride.

The giant scarlet flame bird circled over the Suzaku Gate a few times, and then flew south of the city amidst the exclamations of the crowd.

It wasn't until the flames receded that the people kneeling on the ground got up one after another and ran after the direction where the giant bird flew away.

The overseer kneeling on the ground stared blankly, until the people around him surrounded him one after another before falling to the ground.With lingering fear in his heart, he turned around and lay on his back on the ground, but after turning over, he saw the words on the tower at a glance.This is even more unbelievable, so he pointed to the inscription on the tower like a madman, and murmured something between his trembling lips, but he only repeated one sentence back and forth:

"Zhu, Suzaku, it's Suzaku...it's Suzaku!!"

The writing level is probably like this... (feeling powerless)
