Chapter 714: In Front of the Imperial Palace (Fifth Shift)
The next day, the residence of the Shengming Dynasty.
In the main hall, Huang Wuji, the old man, Ying, Mu Longque, Xue Yue and Yang Xiao were sitting together, discussing something.
"Your Highness, it's almost noon, it's time to go to the Imperial Palace to get your tickets!" Xue Yue spoke quickly and got straight to the point.
"Hmm......" Huang Wuji nodded, but didn't make any other moves.
Everyone looked at each other, wondering what he was thinking.
However, there was only a little more than an hour left before noon. This time is just enough to rush from the mansion to the imperial palace.
According to the rules, the ceremony of awarding tickets will start at noon. But if you don't show up at the beginning of the ceremony, it means that you automatically abstain. The tickets for your side will also be divided equally among the other forces.
Therefore, it is indeed time to leave at this moment, and everyone wants to urge, but they dare not say more when the words come to their lips.
In the end, everyone turned their attention to Yang Xiao.
After all, no matter how high their qualifications are, they are also retainers in front of Huang Wuji.
However, Yang Xiao is the eldest brother in front of Huang Wuji.
Seeing this situation, Yang Xiao did not shirk.
In fact, he had already seen Huang Wuji's concerns, so he said with a smile: "Second brother, are you worried that when you see Xuan Tianchong, you will not be able to restrain your emotions?"
"Yes!" Huang Wuji nodded.
"Oh——"
It was only then that everyone suddenly realized.
The reason why Emperor Wuji didn't move was because he was worried about these.
But think about it, the hatred of these retainers for the Xuan family is unforgettable, not to mention the Nine Emperors who were wiped out?
Moreover, the original Emperor Wuji had the same holy bloodline as Xuantian Chong. But in the end, it was cruelly taken away.
If it weren't for the fact that Xuan Tianchong was only seventeen years old, people would even have reason to wonder if the bloodline that Huang Wuji had been taken away had finally fallen on him?
After all, bloodlines, like flowers, have a certain life cycle.
The best results can only be achieved by refining during its most "blooming" period.
If you miss it, the effect will be greatly reduced.
Moreover, it is more difficult to preserve than anything else.
Even, most of the so-called "fresh" means will accelerate the withering of blood.
It has been three hundred years since the Huang Wuji bloodline was taken away. So no matter what, it is impossible to be inherited by Xuantian Chong. But even so, deep in Huang Wuji's heart, there was an indescribable jealousy and hatred for Xuan Tianchong.
And to participate in that kind of ceremony, he had to give a big gift to Xuantian Chong, which was really unbearable for Huang Wuji's heart and dignity.
"Your Highness, if you can, why don't you let me go for you!" At this time, Mu Longque's voice came from the side.
"Yes, yes, Mr. Mulong has always been calm, it is most appropriate for him to go!"
Ying and Xue Yue said in unison. However, the old man and Yang Xiao did not reply.
You must know that the old man and Yang Xiaonai are the two people that Huang Wuji relies on the most in his heart, and when he saw that they didn't express his position, his brows suddenly twisted: "Teacher, big brother, what do you think?"
The two glanced at each other, and the old man smiled and said, "Young Master Yang, can I listen to your opinion first?"
"This ......" Yang Xiao hesitated.
Although they are sworn brothers, this matter is ultimately about the hatred between the royal family and the Xuan family, and he, an outsider, is somewhat inconvenient to interject.
However, Huang Wuji seemed to be very willing to listen to his advice, so he said, "Big brother, it's okay for you to say it!"
"Okay!" Seeing this, Yang Xiao no longer shirked, "Second brother, I personally think that you should still go!"
"Brother Yang, this doesn't seem to be the right ......"
"Let my eldest brother finish speaking!" Xue Yue was about to interject, but was interrupted by Huang Wuji in the middle of speaking.
Yang Xiao smiled apologetically at Xue Yue and continued: "Actually, what I want to say is very simple, that is, if facing Xuan Tianchong will make you angry, then you must face it until you can talk and laugh freely in front of him. That way, you can go further!"
"This ......" Hearing this, Huang Wuji fell silent for a while.
At this time, I heard the old man laugh and said, "Yang Gongzi really won my heart!"
"Oh, does the teacher think so?" Huang Wuji said as he looked at the old man.
"Of course, Ah Jiu, you have to do great things, you want to restore the country, if you can't even control anger and endure humiliation, I'm afraid ......" Speaking of this, the old man did not continue, but showed a solemn expression.
For a moment, there was a dead silence in the hall, and it was almost audible that a pin had fallen.
The silence lasted for about a hundred breaths, when a rush of footsteps was heard outside.
Then, Pang Zhi came to the gate of the hall and said, "Second brother, haven't you left yet? I see that the people of the other seven dynasties are almost gone! If you don't leave, I'm afraid you'll lose time!"
Seeing that Huang Wuji was still a little embarrassed, Mu Longque smiled and said, "Your Highness, if you ......"
"No!" Before he finished speaking, he saw Huang Wuji stand up suddenly, "I'll go!"
"Your Highness!" Xue Yue wanted to say something, but was stopped by Huang Wuji again.
"The teacher and the eldest brother are right! If I can't even bear this level, then how can I talk about returning to China!"
"Uh......"
The fat man blinked his cute eyes and looked at Yang Xiao, as if asking what serious topic were you discussing just now?
Yang Xiao ignored him, but patted Huang Wuji's shoulder, and said with a firm gaze: "Go, brother, I'm waiting for your good news!"
"Well!good!" With that, Huang Wuji didn't delay any longer and left in a hurry.
............
..................
The entrance of the Imperial Palace.
At this moment, a total of fifteen leaders of the four major families, the three major forces, and the eight great dynasties lined up and stood respectfully at the foot of the steps, waiting for the arrival of the Qin Cha.
Huang Wuji was the last to arrive, and he still used the identity of "Jun Ruohuai", standing in the corner very low-key.
As for the others, they kept whispering.
He pricked up his ears and listened carefully for a while, and about half of the topics were more or less related to Yang Xiao. It was as if he had become the object of attention of all forces.
And from the tone of these people, Huang Wuji could hear their strong hostility towards Yang Xiao. All of them treated him as the first target to be eradicated.
However, Huang Wuji did not pay attention to these discussions. There he stood "stupidly", as if deaf to it.
Finally, it was almost noon.
Listening to the sound of strong footsteps in the imperial palace.
Immediately afterwards, three figures appeared at the gate of the imperial palace.
Two of them, most people recognize, are Xuan Tianchong's henchmen Hu Chenrui and Baijing-faced Miao Lin. And in the middle of the two, there is a young man who is unstoppable, it is Xuantian Chong, the first son of the Xuanwu Empire.
