Chapter Seventy-Nine: Fengxiantang
When the door opened, I found that the area of this hall was slightly smaller than that of other halls that often appeared in various media, and the overall layout was rectangular; At the farthest end of this rectangle, there was a shrine-like object that could be seen standing in front of the shrine with its back to us in the dim light.

At this time, the singing voice sounded again: "The Imperial Prince Qin Bao and the Emperor Wei Xiao Qiang have entered the palace to face the king!" As the words fell, the Leopard King stepped forward, and of course I followed; At the same time, I noticed that the Leopard King made his steps very gentle, as if he was worried that the sound of his footsteps would disturb something.
This change caught my attention, so I also made my movements a lot lighter, and the two of them walked gently into Bongseontang.
As soon as I entered the door, I immediately felt that the temperature around me had dropped a little, and it felt like it was about six or seven degrees Celsius, and there was a feeling that I couldn't explain clearly, as if someone was looking at us, I subconsciously looked around, and found that the surrounding walls were full of large portraits, and in the dim light, I could see that they were all portraits, and the details were not clear.
But there is one detail that is very clear, all these people in the painting, the position of the eyes is very bright, I don't know what paint is used to depict it, and as we move forward, these painted eyes seem to be slowly turning with our steps!
This slightly strange scene made my back feel a little cold, and the subconsciously released perception swept lightly over one of the paintings, and found that there was nothing abnormal, but this discovery made my heart hang a little higher......
"What is served in the Fengxian Hall are all the heroic martyrs who have sacrificed their blood and even their lives for our people since the founding of the empire." Just as I was getting more and more hairy at these strange eyes, a gentle voice suddenly came into my ears.
Following the prestige, the man who had turned his back on us had already turned, and before I knew it, I had followed the Leopard King about three meters in front of him; Before I could see it clearly, the Leopard King had already stopped, knelt down on one knee, bowed his head and said: "Minister, the Imperial Prince Qin Bao has been ordered to bring the imperial guard Xiao Qiang to meet you, see Your Majesty!" ”
At the moment when he knelt down, I suddenly remembered the details of the "Face Saint" that several female officials had repeatedly explained in my ears when I changed my clothes before, and hurriedly knelt down behind him in the same way, and at the moment when the Leopard King finished speaking, I also bowed my head and said: "Emperor Wei Xiao Qiang, see Your Majesty!" ”。
"Get up" The gentle voice sounded again, and when we stood up, he continued: "Leopard, it's hard to go to Black Star, let's talk about it later, Xiao Qiang, you raise your head." ”
The moment I knelt down before, I discovered one thing, the tension that had been hidden in my heart before, the moment I heard the gentle voice, suddenly disappeared, replaced by an inexplicable and heartfelt comfort; At this moment, when he heard his name be mentioned, he raised his head as ordered.
The supreme leader of the most powerful empire in human history, the fate of hundreds of millions of ordinary people, the current emperor Qin Xiao, and the child of the most ordinary miner born on a marginal mining planet, are face to face! One day many years later, I often think back to the first meeting with him, and many details have been worn away by time, and the only thing that impresses me clearly is his eyes.
From the first moment I entered the Bongxian Hall, I felt that someone was looking at me, and I had thought that it was the bright eyes of the portraits on the surrounding walls that caused this illusion, until now, when I really faced the emperor himself, the source of this feeling was determined, and it was his eyes that I felt before.
According to the information conveyed by the media, Emperor Qin Xiao was forty-nine years old that year, according to the standards of ordinary people, he was just middle-aged, and if he was transformed by the standards, he would be a young man; His figure and appearance are seven points similar to the Leopard King, and he is also a medium-sized type in stature and size. Dealing with the Leopard King every day, I always feel like a big brother next door, and from time to time I show some bad feelings, and in general it is very kind.
But at this moment, this emperor who looks seven points similar to the leopard king gave me a completely different feeling, and at the moment when my eyes met, the association that appeared in my mind was actually in the cockpit of Grandpa Jason's "Benjamin", when I saw the incomparably bright Milky Way outside the ship for the first time through the porthole of the cockpit, the sense of awe and suffocation that I had for the vastness of the universe.
What kind of eyes are these!!
Before I saw his eyes, I never imagined that there could be someone in this world who could make others have the urge to bow and worship just by making eye contact!!
This impulse is not because his eyes are full of intimidation, on the contrary, his eyes are very peaceful, but it is precisely behind this peace that an energy is transmitted to my eyes very clearly, and then through the eyes to the heart; Figuratively speaking, it seems that everything I have is completely controlled by the other party.
It stands to reason that this situation is very dangerous, a person is completely controlled by others, so is it not life and death in the hands of others? Ever since I gained a perception beyond the ordinary, I've become obsessed with this sense of control as my level and skills have grown; This feeling of being held in the palm of my hand should have caused me a great reaction.
But on that day, the sense of control given to me by Emperor Qin Xiao did not make me resist, on the contrary, what I felt in his eyes was a mixture of understanding, care and love...... There are many emotions that I feel very comfortable with. Inexplicably, my father, mother and little sister, who I haven't seen for a few years, suddenly flashed in my mind, and in a trance, I seemed to be back in the small living room, my little sister and I were sitting at the dining table, and my mother was busy shuttling between the kitchen and the living room, bringing hot meals to the table. Just as our saliva was about to flow out of our mouths, the door opened, and our father, who was tired but smiling, walked in with a toolkit......
When the slightly itchy feeling of tears running across my face woke me up, I realized where I was, and for a moment I didn't have time to think about it, I fell down on one knee again, bowed my head and said, "Your Majesty, I'm sorry, I... I'm a little distracted" A pair of warm hands reached out to help me up, and the emperor smiled: "It's okay, the little guy has really worked hard this time!" ”
These two ordinary words once again brought tears to my eyes......
Later, when I recalled this meeting, I was really sure of one thing, I had heard rumors that the Emperor had some special abilities, and what I had said was true.
