At the end of November 4999 in the Shengyuan calendar, the entire imperial capital Shengyuan City had already been covered with snow-white, but every household in the imperial capital was decorated with lights, a joyful atmosphere, and people's faces were filled with happy smiles, and they were looking forward to the arrival of the Shengyuan Festival.

Since Emperor Shengyuan unified the Eight Wildernesses and established the Emperor Shengyuan Dynasty, the people of the world felt the merits of Emperor Shengyuan in pacifying the troubled times, so they set January 1 every year as the Shengyuan Festival. It was thought to pay tribute to the Shengyuan Emperor, and at the same time, the Shengyuan Emperor Dynasty was announced at the end of December.

Therefore, the second monarch of the imperial dynasty also celebrated the founding celebration of the country on January 1 at the same time as the Shengyuan Festival. Since then, it has become a tradition that has lasted for nearly 5,000 years, which has led to the unusually lively Shengyuan Festival every year.

Especially at the end of this year, it was a grand celebration of the 5,000th anniversary of the founding of the imperial dynasty, and people's faces were filled with joy. Although the imperial dynasty encountered two absurd kings more than 100 years ago, which led to chaos in the world.

In particular, the 32nd Emperor Shengyun, who ascended the throne 60 years ago, was endlessly debaucherous and unreasonable, and even more brutal, conceited, wantonly killing his courtiers and princes who did not obey him. And so the world fell into even greater chaos.

The princes who guarded all parts of the world had different intentions, and some royal families who served in other places also coveted the throne, and the Yin and Yang sects also began to plan their own plans, intending to subvert the imperial dynasty.

Just when the imperial dynasty was about to fall apart, Emperor Shengyun was on a trip, and the internal guard commander united with foreign royal families to plot to kill Emperor Shengyun at the junction of Yanzhou and Zhongzhou.

Although Emperor Shengyun, who had reigned for thirty-two years, also had the peak cultivation of the Heavenly Realm, due to the rebellion of the commander of the internal guards, most of the guards were replaced, and finally led to being outnumbered and killed in the eastern suburbs of Wucheng.

In September 4971 of the Shengyuan calendar, the news that Emperor Shengyun died in Wucheng spread, the world was in an uproar, and the flames of rebellion were suddenly ignited. beheaded all the rebels around Emperor Shengyun, captured and killed all the royal families and families who wanted to rebel, ascended to the throne, called himself Emperor Shengwu, and named his younger brother Xiu as King Shengwu.

Commanded more than half of the army of the Shengyuan Emperor.

Subsequently, after rectifying everything in the imperial capital, Emperor Shengwu settled in the Dragon Court and dispatched everything, and Shengwu Wang Xiu led his troops to conquer and form a large army to suppress it. After more than 20 years of conquest, the rebellion of the surrounding five states centered on Zhongzhou was quelled, among them, shortly after Emperor Shengwu had just pacified the imperial capital, the Yin and Yang Sect wanted to completely destroy the Shengyuan Emperor Dynasty, just like the more huge imperial dynasty tens of thousands of years ago, but when the suzerains of the three major sects of Tianyuan Sect, Demon Shadow Gate, and Hades Sect joined forces to go to the imperial capital, they found that Emperor Shengwu also had the cultivation of the early stage of the Holy Realm, holding the inheritance spirit weapon of the imperial dynasty, sitting and lying in the central dragon court, and confronting the three major sect masters.

It was even found that there was a large-scale Shengyuan army, as well as a number of martial marquis with Heavenly Realm cultivation, and the three sect masters who were not 100% sure had no choice but to retreat and acquiesce in Emperor Shengwu's actions. At the same time, the Holy Martial King who led the army to conquer the world also had the cultivation of the peak of the Heavenly Realm, and the six major henchmen under his command were mostly martial cultivators of the God Realm, as well as several Onmyoji who had reached the Yuan Realm, killing millions of rebels.

As a result, the Wuhou family in the north and the big families in the south expressed their willingness to obey the Central Dragon Court, and after the Holy Martial Emperor Che and his brother discussed many ways.

Bitter that the imperial dynasty had been corrupted too much by his father and ancestors, he had to temporarily stop the pace of conquest and acquiesce in the situation that these states and counties did not listen to the propaganda. The Shengyuan Emperor Dynasty temporarily avoided the fate of collapse, at least on the surface, it was under the jurisdiction of the central court and was unified.

As a result, the situation of temporary peace and tranquility at this moment was laid, and people also thanked Emperor Shengwu and King Shengwu for quelling the rebellion. thought that the world would eventually return to the great unification under the joint efforts of the two, so the two were collectively called the Zhongxing Emperor.

Therefore, people can live a stable life and spend a happy annual Shengyuan Festival.

Just when every household is decorated with lights, ready to celebrate the upcoming Shengyuan Festival, on the north side of the imperial capital, close to the imperial palace, near the palace of Suzaku Street, stands a large-scale mansion, on the plaque of the gate, on the three gilded characters of the Holy King's Mansion, which was given to his brother after Emperor Shengwu put down the rebellion. The words on the plaque were also engraved by Emperor Shengwu himself.

In the east wing of the house, there is a study room with a simple arrangement, and there are two people kneeling inside, one of them is an old man with a solemn face, holding a ring ruler, and is resting with his eyes closed, and opposite the old man, is a boy about five or six years old, wearing a fine costume, with bright lips and bright teeth, and a delicate face, so a handsome young man.

The boy is bowing his head as if he is reading a book very seriously, but the two small eyes that are rolling around all show that this is a naughty child, this boy is the eldest son of the current Shengwu King, Liu Rui, only six years old, has been extremely smart since he was a child, but he is also unusually naughty, and everyone in the entire emperor knows it, from the royal family to the ordinary people, all know the son of the Holy King's Mansion.

It can be said that the imperial capital is a tyrant, but since three months ago, the Holy Princess, that is, Liu Rui's biological mother, invited the more than 100-year-old Confucian in front of him, Mr. Chen Zhiang, Liu Rui's good days have come to an end. Because the old master is extremely serious and stubborn, this is Liu Rui's evaluation of this great Confucian.

Let's just say that right now, at this time in the past, Liu Rui was always playing crazy outside, Liu Rui raised his head slightly and secretly glanced at the old master, and saw that the master seemed to be asleep, so he first breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he stretched his body slightly, turned his head to look out the window, and saw a little girl playing happily in the courtyard, with a look of envy in his eyes.

At this time, suddenly a ring ruler quickly knocked over, hitting Liu Rui's little head, Liu Rui suddenly came back to his senses, immediately turned his head, and found that the old master kneeling behind the table had already opened his eyes.

Looking at Liu Rui very solemnly, Liu Rui's heart suddenly stirred, and he immediately lowered his head, and said in his mouth: "Master, Rui'er knows that she is wrong." ”

The old master looked at Liu Rui and bowed his head to admit his mistake, and shook his head helplessly, to say that the old master was a hundred years old, and he was not a cultivator, so he had no intention of accepting any more students, but the Holy Princess had an extraordinary status, and she treated each other with courtesy, so she had no choice but to subordinate the Holy King, the son of the world, as his enlightenment teacher.

At the beginning, Liu Rui's intelligence really made the old master very happy, and he could often remember the classics, draw inferences from one another, and quickly understand the courses he taught him, which made the old master feel relieved and felt that this closed disciple was not wrong.

But then the old master found out that this son was much more naughty than children of the same age, and he was very playful, which made the old master hurt his brain.
