Chapter 477: Clan Assembly 3
Since the awakening ceremony is so rare, the number of places must be limited. At this time, the children of these main lineages and descendants appeared, and the intention was quite ponderable.
Zong Zhengchen only listened to the third prince continue: "Before the official ceremony, there is a dragon fight, and the winner can be qualified to participate in the ceremony. If Zong Zhengke was really injured and half dead, it would be fine, and he didn't think that blessing could break through. If she doesn't fight for this place with all her might, when she meets us in the competition, she has to make a bright move, don't cause trouble for her family! ”
Phew! It turned out that he was here to coerce and intimidate! Presumably, they heard that Ke'er has a nine-rank martial arts cultivation, and he thinks that he is not an opponent, so he came to use some means in advance.
Zong Zhengchen secretly disdains it, he is still the main lineage, and he doesn't want to rely on his own ability to fight for places, but thinks of some such indiscriminate tricks, which is really despised.
A strange smile appeared on his face, and Zong Zhengchen said slowly: "But I don't know, if Ke'er intends to avoid it, what price are the third prince and a few young ladies willing to pay?" ”
The third prince was slightly surprised, glared at Zong Zhengchen and shouted: "What? You old boy still dare to lie to the master? The little master condescended to say it in person, and he already looked down on you concubines......"
Zong Zhengchen coughed lightly, unceremoniously interrupted the clamor of the third prince, and said with a smile: "Ke'er, she's on the ninth grade!" Master Huiku asserted that in three years at most, she would be able to advance to the innate position. But I don't know which genius in the main lineage is a seventeen-year-old Innate Martial Venerable? ”
The third son opened his mouth wide, uh-uh a few times, and was so choked that he couldn't speak. The young lady who had just told him not to talk nonsense sighed lightly, got up and said, "It's useless for me to say I've already come, let's go back." How is Ming'er, each depends on the destiny of heaven! ”
It's a bit of a backbone. Zong Zhengchen smiled but did not speak. The young lady looked at him again. He hesitated and asked, "I don't know what price the old gentleman wants?" Miss Ke's cultivation is profound, we are slightly inferior, but it is not without the strength of a battle. Although it is stated that children are not allowed to bring their own weapons, armor and medicines, there are some things that can still be found to be feasible even though they know that they are not feasible. ”
"It's not that the old man is arrogant, Ke'er is amazingly talented, if you want to say that you are ten percent sure, it is not enough, but at least fifty percent or sixty percent of the opportunities to awaken the bloodline are still there. This young lady. Tell me about it. What kind of price can be exchanged for such an opportunity? Zong Zhengchen smiled contemptuously, "Even if you want to negotiate the price, it should be your elders." And not you little characters! If the old man is not wrong, you have to call Ke'er 'Auntie', right? ”
The gentle expression on the young lady's face, which had been so hard to put on, froze for a moment, and she felt that she could no longer talk to this rude side branch who did not know the dignity of her concubine. She snorted coldly, brushed her sleeves and walked out quickly. The third son also got up. When passing by Zong Zhengchen, he said gloomily: "I think it's beautiful, but some blessings are too great." It's going to be a long one! ”
The remaining two, who had never said a word, also left. One of the sons glanced thoughtfully at the Zong Zhengxiu in the corner, his eyes slightly downcast.
The manager didn't dare to snub a few young ladies and gentlemen. hurriedly saluted Zong Zhengchen and quickly followed. After confirming that everyone had left, Zong Zhengxiu came out of the corner. His eyes were full of deep thought.
Zong Zhengchen limped and hurriedly returned to the table. Holding the ancient book in both hands, I felt distressed. The third prince didn't care about the preciousness of this ancient book at all, so that a lot of tea splashed on the yellowed pages, making Zong Zhengchen tremble with anger.
"It's really not as good as a generation! The ancestors were erudite and knowledgeable, and what they learned was enough to last for centuries and benefit thousands of generations. Unexpectedly, the little characters of this main lineage and the long room didn't even know that this book was the only one. Zong Zhengchen took out the silk handkerchief, carefully wiped the tea spilled on the book, and complained.
"Judging by the actions of these people, the so-called main lineage is nothing more than that." Zong Zhengxiu also said, "Even if it is a concubine, it is too incompetent to use this method." ”
"It's this bloodline awakening ritual ......," Zong Zheng Chen muttered, "such a grand event must not be hidden." No wonder I heard that not only did several big figures from the Cao royal family of Great Qi come, but also people from other big countries appeared. You say, will someone come to Daqin? ”
Zong Zheng cultivated: "We don't have good news here, if you want to know who is coming, you need to find out yourself." The second uncle doesn't have to be anxious, I'll go out and investigate. ”
Zong Zhengchen said a few words, and Zong Zhengxiu quietly left the back mountainside and quickly descended the mountain.
The name of this mountain is the mountain, but in fact, it has been built into a large city on a grand scale. At the foot of the hill, the Jingting Academy is an important part of this mountain city, and there are many buildings built around the academy, just like a city within a city.
Zong Zhengxiu strolled through the bustling streets outside the academy, and he only needed to stop for a moment in the crowded places to hear a lot of news.
For example, the two princes of the Great Qi Empire had already arrived at Zongzheng Mountain, lived in the Mirror Court Academy, and asked everyone in the academy for teaching every day.
The envoy of the Jokhang Empire entered the city early this morning. This envoy is extraordinary, it is Xiao Fengheng, the regent of Prince Yong, who is competing with the empress for half of the Great Zhao Dynasty. Of course, what people talk about is not only Xiao Fengheng's power, but also his world-beating appearance.
It is said that a young lady in the eldest house of the Zongzheng clan swore to the gods - she will not marry anyone in this life except Xiao Fengheng! Tut-tut!
The envoys of Dasheng and Dawei also arrived one after another, and they were all important figures from the royal family or the imperial court. However, until now, the envoy of the Great Qin Empire has not shown up, and it is not certain whether anyone will attend this grand event of the Zongzheng clan.
Zong Zhengxiu had been wandering the streets until the end of the morning, and it was almost dusk when he saw the envoy of the Eastern Tang Dynasty hurrying into the city. He recognized at a glance the face of King Huai'an, the second prince of the Eastern Tang Dynasty envoys.
The lights bloomed, and Zong Zhengxiu disappeared into the night and rushed to his residence. However, it didn't take long for him to feel that someone was in hot pursuit. Under the cold iron mask, his lips pursed tightly and sneered.
With all his strength, Zong Zhengxiu's black robe merged with the night, making it difficult for people to distinguish clearly. But the person behind him was able to catch up again after being thrown off by him, and his skills were really not bad.
Once again, they were overtaken, but this place was not the back mountainside, but very close to the group of buildings where the envoys of the great powers lived in the front mountain. Zong Zhengxiu didn't run away, turned to face the comer, and shouted in a deep voice: "Zun Jia is chasing after him, what is his intention?" ”
Aware of the movement, someone came out from behind a big rock, and the glimmer fell on the person's face, quiet and beautiful. She smiled slightly, and bowed. When Zong Zhengxiu saw her, he couldn't help but exhale slowly. (To be continued.) )
