Chapter 53: Humiliation of the court
In fact, Bai Qi doesn't care about this great future, but the Yellow Turban Rebellion is imminent, and the Eastern Han Dynasty is about to be in chaos, if there is no military power in this troubled world, even if Bai Qi's martial arts are the best in the world, he can't protect the people he cares about, so Bai Qi must use the Yellow Turban Rebellion as a stepping stone to expand his position in the army.
In the end, Bai Qi still relented, let go of Cai Yan's hand, and walked out of the door.
"Brother Bai, this is what you said, after Yan'er embroiders the golden dragon Aoyu map, you don't have to pay the bill" It turned out that Cai Yan had already woken up.
Weiyang Palace
"Shang Chao" Zhang Rang, who was a male duck, shouted to the hundreds of officials in the audience.
"There is a book, but there is no book to retreat" was followed by a sentence that reduced the emperor's working hours, and Emperor Han Ling on the stage stood up impatiently and prepared to leave.
Seeing that the emperor on the stage looked like he was leaving, Cai Yong hurriedly walked out of the ranks, holding a jade plate and shouting loudly, as if he was afraid that the emperor would not hear it.
"Oh" After hearing Cai Yong's words, Emperor Ling was also surprised, because on weekdays, this Cai Yong only thinks about compiling the history of the Han Dynasty, and sometimes the court does not come, what is the matter today, such a person who does not ask about the world, why is he so anxious, I have to say that Cai Yong's series of actions have indeed aroused the interest of Emperor Ling.
"Aiqing, please speak"
"Your Majesty can still remember that two years ago, the minister received a closed disciple"
"Remember, you also begged me for him to take words, what's the matter?"
"Two years ago, the minister and Mr. Sword Saint received a disciple together, and received knowledge together, and General Huangfu also brought him to the military camp to teach Mo Luo, I don't want this son to be a genius, and it took only two years to learn everything that the three of us have learned in their lives, and this son has a good character and is a bright and upright person, so the minister and the Sword Saint students and the Huangfu General jointly wrote a letter, asking His Majesty to allow him to enter the court as an official and reimburse the country."
"Is that so? Is there really such a talent in this world, and it only took two years to acquire all the knowledge of the three Aiqing? General Huangfu can have such a thing."
"This son is indeed very intelligent, but he can lead the army as a general" After hearing the emperor's inquiry, Huangfu Song also walked out of the train, without the slightest modesty, he said his evaluation of Bai Qi, his words were taken aback by the ministers in the court, such a high evaluation is the first time to come out of Huangfu Song's mouth, even his rookie Cao Cao in the army, Huangfu Song has not been so boastful.
"Oh, really? Let my father invite Mr. Sword Saint to come" Huangfu Song's answer deepened Emperor Ling's curiosity a little, so he immediately asked Zhang Rang to invite Wang Yue to come to Weiyang Palace, which has to talk about Wang Yue's identity, Wang Yue is neither an official nor a general in the court, and he can be said to be the worship of the imperial court, so he usually does not need to go to the court.
Not long after, Wang Yue followed Zhang Rang to Weiyang Palace.
"The more the minister has seen His Majesty"
"Don't be rude, let me ask you, can you get a fume and call it a white start?"
"Your Majesty, but the minister has a disciple, named Bai Qi is a closed disciple of the minister"
"How's the martial arts?"
"This son's swordsmanship is not under the minister"
"Oh, it's really so powerful, uncle, where is your apprentice at this time?"
"Your Majesty's beloved disciple is outside the palace"
"I have seen it, and I want to see if there are such people in this world."
At this time, Bai Qi, who was outside the hall, was completely ignorant of everything in the hall, at this time he was thinking about the time of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and there was no clear record of the outbreak time of the Yellow Turban Rebellion in the history books, but the year of the outbreak was there, that is, this year, but at this time it was already autumn, and it was about to approach the end of the year.
"It is rumored that Cai Yong's disciple Bai Qi entered the hall" Just as Bai Qi was thinking seriously, a male duck voice that made him hate sounded.
In this way, Bai Qi entered the palace and saw the most powerful person in this era, Bai Qi had simulated the scene of his meeting countless times, but at this time, when he really saw the famous mediocre emperor Han Ling Emperor in history, Bai Qi was disappointed, because what he saw was not an emperor who looked down on the world, but a ridiculous emperor who was richly dressed, but his body was hollowed out by wine, and he was a young man who had been buried in the loess to his neck.
"See Your Majesty"
"How can the bold and ignorant grass people be so rude" After Bai Qi finished saluting, before the emperor could speak, Zhang Rang, the eunuch next to the emperor, roared at Bai Qi, just because Bai Qi did not bow down, he was not much afraid of this Bai Qi, but his three masters were really scared, only listening to the three sounds of "poof", the three masters of Bai Qi knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me, the inferior is not in the court, how can you know the court's court" After finishing speaking, the three of them kept kowtowing in place, and the sound of "dong dong dong" echoed above the court, and at the same time, Bai Qi's heart was also pulled up by such a voice, and a painful feeling came to his heart, and Bai Qi felt that he was about to suffocate.
It is rumored all over the world that Zhang Rang and other ten permanent servants of the cholera court, Your Majesty, and Bai Qi's three masters have never given these eunuchs a good face on weekdays, but today in order to protect Bai Qi became so embarrassed, an instant urge to kill people instantly surged into Bai Qi's heart for the first time in nearly three years.
"It's okay, it's okay, the three Aiqing, please get up, if you apprentice is really so good, I'm a little embarrassed, let my father see what kind of official he is" Emperor Ling, who was embarrassed for a while, turned his head and asked Zhang Rang.
And when Cai Yong and the others heard Emperor Ling say this, they immediately secretly screamed "not good" in their hearts
After Zhang Rang heard Emperor Ling's words, he first glared at Cai Yong and the others, and then said in a strange manner.
"Just now, the sword saint said, this son is very good at swordsmanship, Your Majesty is also very bored today, it is better to let him dance the sword in this Weiyang Palace, Your Majesty is happy What kind of official is not good?"
"No, Your Majesty, by all means"
After Zhang Ranggang finished speaking, Wang Yue, who was kneeling in the hall, couldn't help but cry out, although he was the swordsman of the Spirit Emperor, he had never watched the Spirit Emperor's sword dance, the sword that Wang Yue learned was born for life and death, and the sword for people to watch was for the skill of forcing people to play, the difference between the two years.
And Wang Yue's sword, one practice of a gentleman's heart, the second cultivation of the intention of killing, although Bai Qi is indeed good at swordsmanship now, but he is still a boy who has not experienced real fighting, if he controls his killing intent because of the sword dance for the Spirit Emperor, once Bai Qi is not properly controlled and leaks this killing intent, Wang Yue is afraid that Bai Qi will be timid on the battlefield, and he is afraid on the battlefield, but it is not a joke, so Wang Yue can be said to persuade him to die.
"Okay, you Wang Yue, didn't this kid learn a martial art, didn't he buy it from the emperor's family? What can't you dance, I think you can't get along with Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty's little apprentice learned the skills of battlefield fighting, and if you accidentally leak your killing intent, you will lose your life on the battlefield, if Your Majesty really wants to see it, the minister is willing to dance to your Majesty" Finally, Wang Yue still put down his last figure, in order not to let Bai Qi dance the sword, he would rather perform it himself to the Emperor Ling, I have to say that this extremely proud sword saint has been forced to a desperate situation.
"Master, you don't have to be like this, since Your Majesty wants to see me dance the sword, why don't I dance to Your Majesty" Bai Qi finally couldn't help it, he didn't want to see his arrogant master, so he begged for a waste emperor.
When Wang Yue and Zhang Rang first started to confront each other, Bai Qi did expect Emperor Ling of Han on top of the high hall to be able to stop the farce in front of him, but when he saw Emperor Ling's playful eyes, Bai Qi was completely disappointed in the emperor in front of him, and suddenly he understood Cao Cao, who coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes in the official history, he took the Son of Heaven, why didn't he think about assisting the emperor well and hitting a glorious man, but the Son of Heaven couldn't help it, what should I do, Cao Cao had to help himself up.
At this time, Bai Qi felt so helpless, although his martial arts at this time were rare in the world, he still couldn't prevent his master from being humiliated.
