The Beast King's Harem (Bisexual/NP)
Chapter 4: The Beast King's Secret Visit
The next morning.
The caravan disguised as a caravan set out from the palace in the early morning.
Because it was a secret visit, the caravan was not large, with a total of fifteen cars.
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
;Yi Jin naturally sat in the middle car, with the front and back guarded by the imperial guards with high martial arts values:
Xie Mengzhang (Ml1/MasterofazuradragonP)
:Xie Mengzhang was also in the car at this time, and he sent Yi Jin out of the city.:
The caravan passed the Imperial Street in front of the palace, and the front gradually opened up, and a huge square appeared in front of him.
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
:Yi Jin looked out of the car window curiously.:
The square was estimated to be several thousand square meters, and in the center stood two rows of towering statues, facing each other and arranged neatly.
At the end of these statues, there was an even larger golden statue, which faced the square and was solemn and majestic
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
"What is this?"
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
*Yi Jin just asked a question, and suddenly found that the largest golden statue seemed... seemed to look like himself?*
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
*No, not like.*
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
*That should be Yi Jin.
Or, it is the statue of the Beast King.*
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
:Yi Jin counted them. In addition to the Beast King statue, there were a total of ten statues in the two rows, five on each side.:
The first statue standing to the right of the Beast King was the Azure Dragon Lord Xie Mengzhang. The statue was lifelike, with a huge Azure Dragon coiled around the human-shaped statue of Xie Mengzhang.
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
:As for the others, Yi Jin didn't recognize them.:
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
*However, he could distinguish them by the beasts accompanying these statues.*
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
*Opposite the Azure Dragon was the Vermillion Bird, and next to the Vermillion Bird was the Black Tortoise.*
*The back of the White Tiger statue was empty*
That should be the position of the White Tiger Lord who died in the battle.
After that were the Unicorn, the Nine-tailed Fox, the Black Panther, and the big fish with dragon horns.
The bases of the last two statues were also empty.
Only seven of the ten statues remained.
The colors of these seven statues were very dull, and they were completely incomparable to Yi Jin's golden statue.
The Azure Dragon statue still had a little color, and the others were duller than the others, especially the Unicorn, which was completely black, as if it would collapse in the next moment.
Xie Mengzhang (Ml1/MasterofazuradragonP)
Yi Jin was wondering, Xie Mengzhang explained: "Your Majesty, did you see it?"
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
Yi Jin: "Hmm?"
:At this moment, Yi Jin saw civilians gradually approaching the statue of the Beast King and began to pay homage.:
:Some came directly in the form of beasts, and some brought their families and children with them.:
Some people went to worship under the statue of Xuanwu, and some went to worship under the statue of Unicorn...
Xie Mengzhang (Ml1/MasterofazuradragonP)
Xie Mengzhang's voice sounded beside Yi Jin's ears: "These statues are the masterpieces of the beast god, not human efforts. When you came to the empire, your statues appeared at the same time."
Xie Mengzhang (Ml1/MasterofazuradragonP)
"The ten statues below correspond to governance, military, medical care, national security, agriculture, commerce, infrastructure, diplomacy, education, and internal affairs."
Xie Mengzhang (Ml1/MasterofazuradragonP)
"These positions are granted by the Beast King. When the title is given, the statue will change accordingly."
Xie Mengzhang (Ml1/MasterofazuradragonP)
"When one of us dies, his statue will disappear until a new suitable candidate appears and is canonized by the Beast King. The statue of the new person will be directly filled in."
Xie Mengzhang (Ml1/MasterofazuradragonP)
"Our lives are connected to the statues, and the statues represent the fate of the country."
Xie Mengzhang (Ml1/MasterofazuradragonP)
"When the country is prosperous, the colors of the statues are bright, and when the country is declining, the colors of the statues are dim."
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
:The wheels rolled by, and Yi Jin gradually could not see the statues:
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
:He lowered the curtains with a solemn expression.:
Xie Mengzhang (Ml1/MasterofazuradragonP)
Xie Mengzhang finally said: "The statues on the square are the beliefs of the people. Your Majesty, the empire needs you."
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
:Yi Jin called out in his heart.:
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
*None of these statues are bright in color.*
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
*Only he, the newly descended Beast King, was inappropriately glittering with golden light.*
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
*The ten functions corresponding to the ten statues were obviously the functions of the entire country.*
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
*Military, diplomacy and education were empty.*
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
*The Holy Beast Empire was not only miserable, but very, very miserable!*
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
*I really don’t know what the previous Beast King had done over the years to make such a big country like this.*
Yi Jin was distracted when the convoy suddenly stopped.
He vaguely heard a eunuch calling "Lord Xuanwu", and the next moment, the car door was pushed open, and a heavy object "bang" came in and fell on Yi Jin's legs. A black figure flashed outside the door, and the man threw down a sentence: "The smell is so bad! You can smell it from a long distance! This is a gift from my master, you're welcome!"
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
:Yi Jin picked up the thing on his leg, which seemed to be a sachet.:
The color of the sachet was black with gold, and beautiful patterns were embroidered with gold thread.
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
:Yi Jin lowered his head and smelled it, but didn't smell anything.:
Xie Mengzhang (Ml1/MasterofazuradragonP)
Xie Mengzhang explained: "This is the medicine bag prepared by Lord Xuanwu for you to cover up your body odor. You can carry it with you. The males in the palace are all excellent ones who have been carefully selected. Most of them can restrain themselves when they smell your fragrance, but the common people will be much more affected when facing you. Wearing the medicine bag is also to avoid causing chaos."
Xie Mengzhang (Ml1/MasterofazuradragonP)
"Zuo Yanyu is hard-mouthed but soft-hearted. He always speaks like this. Your Majesty is generous and will not bother with him."
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
*Yi Jin: Haha. He doesn't even give gifts properly. He doesn't even show his face.*
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
*Yi Jin didn't even see the appearance of this Lord Xuanwu Zuo Yanyu.*
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
*But when he passed by the statue just now, he saw that Xuanwu seemed to be in charge of medical treatment. That must mean he has superb medical skills?*
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
:Yi Jin tied the medicine bag to his belt.:
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
Yi Jin: "So when Madam Fang said that she would worship the statues, she was talking about the ones in the square?"
Xie Mengzhang (Ml1/MasterofazuradragonP)
Xie Mengzhang replied: "Yes. Almost every family in the empire will enshrine a set of small statues for convenient worship at home."
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
*People and gods are talking nonsense. The entire Holy Beast Empire cannot be explained by common sense.*
Xie Mengzhang (Ml1/MasterofazuradragonP)
:Five miles out of the capital, Xie Mengzhang did not continue to send him off.:
Xie Mengzhang (Ml1/MasterofazuradragonP)
:When Xie Mengzhang returned to the palace, Shen Yitan and Zuo Yanyu had already been waiting in the imperial study.:
Under the bright carved window, two figures, one red and one black, were playing chess.
Shen Yitan (Ml4/Concubine/LordofSuzakuP)
Seeing Xie Mengzhang come in, Shen Yitan asked, "Did you send him off?"
Xie Mengzhang (Ml1/MasterofazuradragonP)
Xie Mengzhang: "Yes."
Xie Mengzhang (Ml1/MasterofazuradragonP)
:Then he sat behind the desk and began to review memorials.:
Zuo Yanyu (ML3/Concubine)
Zuo Yanyu dropped a black piece on the chessboard, trapping a large number of white pieces, and said, "I don't believe that man really wants to save Jiang Chengyan. He is obviously afraid, so he fled the palace. He must know how the late emperor died."
Xie Mengzhang (Ml1/MasterofazuradragonP)
Xie Mengzhang said, "You should respectfully address him as 'Your Majesty'."
Zuo Yanyu (ML3/Concubine)
:Zuo Yanyu sneered disdainfully.:
Shen Yitan (Ml4/Concubine/LordofSuzakuP)
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Shen Yitan said, "Your Majesty's guards are all my people. Whatever he does in Jingzhou every day, naturally the messengers will report it back."
Shen Yitan (Ml4/Concubine/LordofSuzakuP)
"Your Majesty is different from the late emperor. This time we will naturally learn from the last lesson and will not make the same mistake again. If necessary, we can use some means."
Xie Mengzhang (Ml1/MasterofazuradragonP)
Xie Mengzhang said, "We can still wait, but Chengyan can't. Let's see if Your Majesty will really save Chengyan. If he doesn't save him--"
Xie Mengzhang (Ml1/MasterofazuradragonP)
:Xie Mengzhang raised his left hand, and a small miniature square statue appeared out of thin air in his palm. The current status of each statue could be clearly seen. It was exactly the projection of the giant statue in the square.:
The three men's eyes fell on the miniature statue and they all fell silent.
If His Majesty didn't really want to save Jiang Chengyan, then they might have to use some dishonorable means.
The convoy went all the way south.
In early April, they arrived in Jingzhou and entered Jingzhou City.
The regional division of the Holy Beast Empire is the same as the ancient Hua Kingdom that Yi Jin knows, divided into nine states, namely Jizhou, Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yangzhou, Jingzhou, Liangzhou, Yuzhou, Yongzhou, and Yanzhou.
Compared with the ancient Hua Kingdom, the territory of Jingzhou also includes the Hunan, Hubei, Guangxi, Guangdong, and Guizhou areas of Yi Jin's previous life.
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
:Along the way, what Yi Jin saw along the way deepened his understanding of the current situation of the entire Holy Beast Empire.:
:On the way, they encountered several waves of bandits who blocked the road and robbed, and it was all up to the guards:of the imperial army to repel those robbers. It was also the first time that Yi Jin saw the fighting methods of the generals and soldiers of the Holy Beast Empire.:
At that time, the guards turned into beasts, and various superpowers emerged in an endless stream, and wind, fire, thunder and lightning crackled out.
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
:Yi Jin was stunned.:
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
*What the hell is this world! It's too fantasy!*
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
:Along the way, Yi Jin also saw many dilapidated villages, fields full of weeds, some were bare, no crops were planted at all, and many people fled with their families carrying bags on their backs.:
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
:Although Yi Jin was visiting incognito, he could not hide the fact that he wanted to see Jiang Chengyan
from the governor of Jingzhou. After all, Jiang Chengyan was now living in the governor's mansion of Jingzhou.:
Liu Haiyue (governor/ml subordinate)
:In the evening of that day, the convoy entered the city in a low-key manner and stopped in front of the governor's mansion. The governor of Jingzhou, Liu Haiyue, led a group of officials to kneel and greet him.:
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
:Yi Jin has finally learned to put up the airs of the beast king during this period:
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
Yi Jin helped Lian Zhen get out of the car and said, "Stand up."
Liu Haiyue (governor/ml subordinate)
Liu Haiyue bent down and followed behind Yi Jin, saying, "Your Majesty, I have prepared a welcoming banquet for you..."
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
Yi Jin said, "No need, where does Jiang Chengyan live? I'll go see him first."
Liu Haiyue (governor/ml subordinate)
Liu Haiyue flattered, "Jiang Chengyan is in the side courtyard, I will lead the way for you!"
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
Yi Jin: "Tell others not to follow."
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
:Yi Jin walked through the corridor and stepped into the side courtyard.:
Fang Shen (Servant boy of Jiang Chengyan
:Fang Shun, the servant boy beside Jiang Chengyan, was standing at the door, standing on tiptoes and stretching his neck to look outside.:
Fang Shen (Servant boy of Jiang Chengyan
When Fang Shun saw Yi Jin, he knelt down on the ground with a plop and said sadly: "Your Majesty! You are finally here! Please have mercy and save my master!"
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
"Get up." Yi Jin walked straight to the bedroom without stopping.
The light in the bedroom was very dim.
It was filled with the smell of nongnong medicine.
A person was lying on the wide bed.
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
:Yi Jin walked over and saw a handsome man with blond hair.:
Although his face was gray and his face was thin, it still did not affect his handsomeness.
Jiang Chengyan's blond hair was dull and scattered on the pillow. His eyes were closed. There was a light golden mark between his eyebrows. The shape of the mark was full in the middle and pointed at both ends. It was a birthmark born with him, which represented "grain".
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
Yi Jin sat down by the bed and ordered: "Everyone who is not related to him should get out."
Soon, only Yi Jin, Jiang Chengyan's servant Fang Shun, and Lian Zhen were left in the bedroom.
Lian Zhen (Ml2/Concubine)
:Lian Zhen wanted to protect Yi Jin's safety, so he couldn't leave him even a step.:
Fang Shen (Servant boy of Jiang Chengyan
:Fang Shun was Jiang Chengyan's personal servant and should have been on standby at all times.:
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
*Yi Jin knew that the best way to save Jiang Chengyan now was to have sex with him.*
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
*But Jiang Chengyan was in such a coma and his mind was not clear, so he probably wouldn't have any reaction at all, right?*
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
*Besides, Yi Jin wasn't so perverted as to bully a terminally ill person.*
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
Yi Jin whispered, "Where's the medicine he usually drinks? Bring it over."
Fang Shen (Servant boy of Jiang Chengyan
:Fang Shun ran out in a hurry, and soon came back with a black pottery medicine bowl, kneeling on the footrest at Yi Jin's feet:
Fang Shen (Servant boy of Jiang Chengyan
"Your Majesty, let me feed you--"
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
"No need," Yi Jin took the medicine bowl, "I'll do it."
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
:The medicine soup was no longer hot, and Yi Jin took a sip, frowning at the bitter taste.:
Yi Jin (MC /Emperor)
:Yi Jin leaned down, held Jiang Chengyan's chin with one hand, and kissed his lips.:
