The live fortune telling is so accurate that the whole network is waiting to watch.

The carriage drove for a while, and a towering city appeared vaguely in front of us, like a giant beast crawling on the dark ground.

The city gate flew open and the carriage drove straight in.

When we got into the city, we saw that the streets were wide and the buildings were numerous.

Although it was still night, every house was brightly lit and bustling.

The pedestrians on the street and the figures in the buildings were all women, just like what I saw on the way here, there was not a single man in sight.

At the end of the long street is the royal palace.

The female general got off the horse first, and then asked Yu Beiming and Jiang Shu to get off the car and walk in.

After passing through several palace gates and walking across a large square, we finally arrived in front of the queen.

The queen was reviewing memorials in the imperial study. When she heard that someone had arrived, she immediately dropped her official duties and called them in.

Jiang Shu looked up and saw a young woman in front of him. She had an oval face, willow-shaped eyebrows, and an outstanding appearance. It would not be an exaggeration to say that she was the most beautiful woman in the world.

Unlike ordinary women, she was wearing the attire of an ancient emperor, and every move she made while sitting there exuded the aura of a superior.

The female general stepped forward and knelt down to salute. She turned around and saw Yu Beiming and Jiang Shu standing still. She scolded them, “When you see Her Majesty the Queen, you must kneel down and salute!”

Yu Beiming put his hands behind his back, unmoved.

Jiang Shu snorted coldly: "I only kneel to my parents and my country, not to others!"

The female general drew her sword and shouted at him, but the queen raised her hand to stop him: "You are a foreigner who doesn't know the rules, so please excuse me."

As she spoke, her eyes were fixed on Yu Beiming. The more she looked, the more satisfied she became, and her smile became more and more gentle.

"I dreamed last night that stars fell into the river, and I guessed that something good was going to happen, so I ordered people to search along the river, and sure enough, I met you."

"We rarely have male guests here, and when he comes, he is as handsome as a star in the sky, which is really a delight."

This wave of praise made Yu Beiming feel embarrassed.

The Queen was in a good mood and personally took them around the palace.

Yu Beiming did not refuse and followed the queen.

He occasionally responded to whatever the queen said.

It was as if he was really a guest here.

But there was no happiness or any other emotion on his face.

The longer Jiang Shu stayed with him, the more he felt he couldn't understand him, so he had to quietly remind him: "We are not here as guests, it's more important to find someone."

Yu Beiming said: "Where do you think we should look for it? The palace, or the small town we first arrived at? No matter where we look, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack. It takes too much time."

He pointed at the queen who was walking in front and said, "Since she is the king here, she naturally knows more. Let's follow her wishes first, so that it will be convenient for us to find out more later."

Jiang Shu also felt that there was some truth in it, but he still had some doubts in his heart.

"In Journey to the West, the queen took a fancy to Monk Tang and wanted to marry him. So this queen..."

He couldn't help but glance at Yu Beiming: "She doesn't want to keep you too, does she?"

Yu Beiming said: "I'm afraid she doesn't have the ability to stay."

Jiang Shu felt relieved after hearing this.

But then I thought, if Yu Beiming is the role of Tang Monk, then what about me? Is it Sun Wukong?

There are few Chinese people who do not worship Monkey King, and Jiang Shu is no exception.

After strolling around for a while, the queen invited them to a banquet.

At the banquet, there were pleasant music and graceful singing and dancing.

Plate after plate of delicacies from land and sea are placed before your eyes, all of them are delicious and tasty.

After the dance, the dancers left the stage one after another.

Seeing that the time was almost right, Yu Beiming asked, "Your Majesty, may I ask where this place is? Besides us, have there been any other outsiders recently?"

The queen did not answer, but raised her wine glass and said to Yu Beiming: "Brother Yu, I toast to you."

Yu Beiming corrected him, "I really don't deserve the title of brother. Just call me Yu Beiming."

The queen smiled and said, "Bei Ming, please drink up the wine in your cup."

Yu Beiming picked up the wine glass, and Jiang Shu quickly held his hand: "It might be poisonous, so don't eat or drink it casually."

"If you don't eat or drink anything, you won't be able to ask anything."

After saying that, Yu Beiming picked up the wine glass and drank it all, then took out a handkerchief and pressed the corners of his lips.

The queen's smile deepened: "You are indeed generous. I really like your personality more and more."

Yu Beiming repeated the question again: "Your Majesty, can you tell me where this place is? Besides us, are there any other outsiders recently?"

The queen then answered his question: "This place is called Xiliang Kingdom. In addition to the two of you, another man came here recently."

Jiang Shu hurriedly asked: "What does he look like?"

The queen did not answer him, her eyes were only on Yu Beiming: "Beiming, let's have another drink."

Yu Beiming drank another glass of wine and asked, "Your Majesty, do you remember what that man looks like?"

This time the Queen answered: "Short hair, square face, and a mole on the left eyebrow."

Jiang Shu hurriedly said to Yu Beiming: "It's Zhou Peng."

Yu Beiming asked again: "Where is he now?"

"He had a very pleasant conversation with my prime minister, so he went to live in the prime minister's residence."

As she spoke, she suddenly smiled and covered her lips: "I am now doing something good with the Prime Minister."

Jiang Shu became anxious upon hearing this.

Yu Beiming winked at him, calming him down, and then asked:

"Can I meet him?"

"I'm afraid not."

"why?"

"The Prime Minister is getting married today. How can I summon her groom? This is against the rules."

"Is there no other way?"

"If a palace banquet is held, it is bigger than a wedding banquet, so the Prime Minister and her family should attend."

"Isn't it the palace banquet right now?"

"Not counting."

"So what kind of party would count?"

"A state banquet for the emperor's wedding."

I went around in circles for so long just to set the stage for this last sentence.

So, Yu Beiming changed the topic and asked, "Besides men, have there been any other women recently?"

The queen said, "Here, men are honored guests and will be received with great ceremony. If women come here, they will become our citizens and be managed by the household registration officials. I do not ask about it. After the annual household registration statistics, the officials below will submit the book to me. Bei Ming, if you want to find someone, I can help you ask the officials below later."

This may be true.

It's also possible that he was just making excuses and didn't want to tell him.

Since he couldn't get any detailed information about the missing person, Yu Beiming changed the topic and asked:

"Your Majesty, is this place in your country the underworld or the world of the living?"

This question was asked very directly, mainly because he didn't want to beat around the bush any more.
