Chapter 307: Make Radiance Great Again
One stone stirs up a thousand waves, and that's just the case.
The stirring mental power of the students who were talking about it instantly made the sunshine of the martial arts arena focus on the majestic, soaring into the sky, and the golden pillar of light seemed to be a group LevelUp.
However, Le Yu didn't look at them at this time, but turned his head to look at the teachers next to him. Most of the teachers were shocked, except for a few who were expressionless, but it was possible that they were also paralyzed, except for a handsome man with long black pigtails and a black box on his back.
At the moment when his eyes staggered, the man with long braids gently hammered his left chest, saluted Le Yu, and a faint smile hung on the corner of his mouth.
Leyu is also familiar with this smile.
It's the same as Lan Yan's.
That's because of my own indestructible self-confidence.
He is the scabbard, and, most likely, it is the scabbard of the Ming Shuangli.
Le Yu turned his head to observe Ming Shuangli on the rostrum, the ice-blooded physique restrained his useless surprise, and his understanding of the situation in Yanjing and his experience in these days made him quickly understand what Ming Shuangli's purpose was.
Anyone who knows about the sword search for the throne must be surprised why Ming Shuangli revealed his identity, and Le Yu also thought that the sword search must be carried out in secret - after all, it is a ceremony to select the new emperor, how can it be interfered with by the public?
But if you think about it, does it really take you to hide your identity?
For sword seekers, each other's identities are almost always on the surface, and everyone even knows the roots, so the loss caused by exposure is almost zero, and the risk does not increase. And Ming Shuangli didn't directly say that he was looking for a sword to compete for the position, but simply pointed out his identity as a candidate for the new emperor.
But on the other hand, the benefits of revealing one's identity are incalculable.
The most obvious is Ming Shuangli, who has placed herself in the spotlight and thus received near-round-the-clock protection, and the students must approach her with various purposes - to become a future cabinet scholar, to be a future general of the Zhu Kingdom, to be a court idler waiting for death, and even to be the future Prince Huiyao.
Although it is not written in the rules, from the moment Le Yu saw the old principal Cha Huan, he knew that there was a hidden rule in the sword search for the throne - no other innocent students could be killed.
Even if he only knew the old principal Cha Huan for a few minutes, Le Yu could see his distinct character: extremely proud. He is the kind of person who can do not speak, and whoever disobeys me will be beaten first, whether he loves his students or not, as long as the scabbards dare to act against his prestige or disrespect him, it will inevitably attract a fatal blow from the Platinum Tower.
Now that you have the Ming Shuangli that the whole school pays attention to, it is equivalent to directly locking the blood, and it is difficult for you to find a chance to cut out her blood bar.
In addition, Leyu also sensed the ambition of this girl.
The current seven sword seekers are almost all on the fringes of the royal family, and in the past ten years of their lives, they naturally would not have thought that they could also become emperors, so it is impossible to have any preparations. There is no one, no power, and even the inheritance is passed to them because of the death of the most qualified heirs.
Even if the most domineering Ming Shuangli succeeds in ascending the throne, he will only be a puppet emperor for twenty years, and after twenty years, he will obediently be a battery-driven holy sword Huiyao to kill a Lang Lang Qiankun.
Maybe someone is willing, but Ming Shuangli is obviously unwilling.
She needs to build her own team.
Le Yu didn't know what Ming Shuangli's family background was, but when she recalled her luxurious mansion, she thought it was a little better than ordinary people in Yanjing. But even so, it is impossible for the ministers of the court to obey her orders, they dare to provide a little help even in the assassination of the former emperor, and it is simply easy to fool a new empress.
Therefore, she had to start from scratch to find subordinates who were loyal to her, so in the whole Huiyao, is there any place more suitable for recruiting troops than the Yanjing Royal Academy? - The original intention of the Royal Academy is that this is a black-hearted factory to cultivate tool people for the emperor!
Instead of recruiting after becoming the emperor, why not directly take advantage of this time to search for the sword and compete for the throne, and directly select those tool people with strong functions, great potential, and beautiful standing paintings from the big card pool of the imperial courtyard?
It's so much easier to build a team, focus your eyes, show yourself, and get all the hassle done together...... And as soon as you appear, you will get the initiative in this game. Le Yu couldn't help but think, 'If I were her scabbard, it would be much easier......
Originally, Leyu thought that the sword seeker had little role in this game, and was just a thigh pendant that played as a counterweight to the scabbard, but Ming Shuangli refreshed his cognition - it's not clear who is whose pendant!
"Humph!"
The old principal of Cha Huan stomped his foot heavily, and the swirling glow was suddenly swept away, and the martial arts arena was quiet again.
"I'm very happy with your excitement." Ming Shuangli stroked his chest and said: "To be honest, just now I was ready to be silent, and even ready to meet your boos, but I didn't expect you to be so excited that it was like I was asking for marriage on the spot and it was the kind of man or woman who was not limited." β
There was a burst of laughter from the students.
"I thought you were desperate for Radiance."
The arena fell silent.
"The first emperor was assassinated in the imperial court, and the holy sword hangs in the air to this day; The sky is almost independent, and the officials of each district harbor evil intentions; Backlit tissues are blooming everywhere, and warlords are popping up one after another. In the autumn of Huiyao's critical survival, but Yanjing still sang and danced to level the flames, and the succession of the throne alone fought openly and secretly for two years, during which double-digit royal family members died, including many relatives who had a good relationship with me. β
"I studied at the Imperial Academy for three years, and during these three years, every four-department debate tournament was discussed, and all the discussions were about national affairs and political situations. Your debate views are sharp and fierce, your heart to save the country is pure and hot-blooded, you think that the imperial court obviously has a better choice, why did you take the worst path, I see them all in my eyes, one by one in my heart, and even I am the second debater of the Dire debate team. β
"Yes, it may be because your vision is limited, and you really don't see as far-reaching as the cabinet scholars, and you don't think as thoroughly as the six books."
"And there are," Ming Shuangli spread his hands: "Maybe what you said is correct, but the court has chosen the wrong one, and it can only choose the wrong one." β
"Corruption? Dissolute? Selfish? System? Decay? β
"What is it that has degenerated this country to this point? How can we restore the glory of this great country that has been inherited for 2,000 years? This is something I've been thinking about ever since I knew I was ready to become the new emperor. β
"I'm just a normal person...... Okay, I might be pretty, cute, confident, but I'm still a normal person. I am not satisfied with staying in Yanjing for twenty years, and finally suppressing the world with the glory of the holy sword, so that history will once again enter a boring cycle - after all, I am also afraid of death, if I can be a Zhongxing empress who can turn the tide, why be a mediocre tool emperor? β
"Times have changed, and the country needs to change, but I don't know how. I'm just an ordinary girl, I was still watching love before I became the new emperor, and I saw that the sweet bridge would roll around like a maggot on the bed, and the only serious scientific idea was to think about how to blow up the Platinum Tower...... Oh, Principal Tea, I'm joking, how can I have the power to blow up your tower. β
"We will study in the Imperial Academy for half a year, and after half a year, the new emperor will ascend the throne, maybe it's me, maybe it's my other lovely sister."
"But anyway...... Emperor, all need companions. β
"The meaning of the emperor is to take the lead, to resist the storm for his companions, and to serve as a banner to guide everyone to a glorious future...... Or maybe it's a dead end. β
"In these six months, I hope you can answer those questions in my heart, with a long exposition, or with a boiling love heart. I'm not saying this to you for my own sakeβwell, perhapsβI'm making a request to you for the sake of the future Emperor. β
"The emperor is the glorious future, and you are the future itself."
"I read a newspaper in the outer district a few days ago and saw a very meaningful sentence: 'The humble does not dare to forget the country'. Don't be afraid to speak because you are white, every mountain you respect is born by your father, made of flesh and bones, and you have all babbled, no one has anything more than you, the present of the sand is the past of the mountains, and your present is the past of the pillars of the future. β
"If you think Radiance is hopeless, find a new route; If you think that Radiance is still necessary, then please fight for me, or rather, for the next Emperor of Radiance. β
"But no matter what, don't forget that you are students of the Imperial Academy, you are the proud sons of the glorious heavens, and you are destined to dominate the ups and downs of this land. In your own way, please work for the future of this country. β
"The above is the speech of a twenty-two-year-old third-grade female student from an ordinary family in Yanjing."
Ming Shuangli bowed to the students: "Finally, allow me to quote a sentence from a newspaper in the outer district as a conclusion. Although the source of this sentence is from a strange anecdote, it seems very imposing, and I think this sentence can represent my thoughts and those of many people-"
Ming Shuangli clenched his right fist and raised it high.
"Make Radiance Great Again!" She said aloud.
Like the last gear fitting into the machine, and like the first domino falling, the students, who had already been tugged at by the speech, raised their right hands in unison, making this short but not simple slogan resound throughout the Royal Academyβ
"Make Radiance Great Again!"
Musical language: "......"
He wrote that strange anecdote obviously for satire, why did he ...... Forget it, being misunderstood is the fate of the expressor, and he should have understood it a long time ago.
"That's right." Ming Shuangli gently pressed her hands, and everyone immediately calmed down and listened to her: "My other sisters are not as outgoing as me, but they are also very good people. In other words, we are all qualified to become the potential of the Holy Sword's radiance. β
"If the emperor is the holy sword, then you are the scabbard. The sword and the scabbard are mutually chosen, and the sword wants to pick out the scabbard that is suitable for durability, and the scabbard also wants to follow the sword of the wise and powerful...... Well? β
When Ming Shuangli scanned the audience, she saw that Le Yu's red hair suddenly froze slightly, and then continued to say casually: "Although you choose the sword you want to follow, even if you choose the wrong one, I believe that the new emperor will not mind, at least I don't mind - if others mind me, I can't help it." β
"It's normal to make the wrong choice when you don't have information or you don't have a choice. But if you choose the scabbard again. She looked at Le Yu out of the corner of her eye: "I guess I can make the right choice." β
Le Yu's heart sank suddenly.
He wasn't afraid of being recognized by Ming Shuangli, but Ming Shuangli's words were obviously said to the scabbard, and they were full of solicitation.
What's more......
Until now.
Jun Zuo hadn't even told him who his sword master was.
