Chapter 197: Autumn Ceremony

[I wish you all a happy Mid-Autumn Festival, good health, and all the best in advance.] Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info】

Jinting Avenue is the street outside the south gate of Tianji Palace, and the name of this street after the construction of this street was called Shengting Avenue at the beginning, but not long after it was named, there was a sentence from Daxi, which probably meant that if the name of Shengting Avenue was not changed, then the name of Yan Guo should be changed.

Because in the eyes of the people of Daxi, there can only be one place in the whole world called the Holy Court, and that is the court of Daxi.

Even if the Yan people were rough, they knew that Daxi couldn't be offended, so they changed the name of the Holy Court Avenue as soon as possible. But even so, Jinting Avenue is still the pride of the Yan people. It was wide enough and flat enough, even if it was the sudden flash flood at the beginning, it couldn't damage Jinting Avenue.

Out of the south gate of Tianji Palace is Jinting Square, covering an area of hundreds of acres. It's just as flat, and it's a place for all kinds of events.

Without exception, every autumn ceremony is held in Jinting Square.

King Yan and many members of the royal family, as well as important courtiers, watched the autumn ceremony from the south gate tower of Tianji Palace. This year's Autumn Ceremony has been postponed for many days, and now it is finally taking place. Almost half of the people of Fanggu City gathered around Jinting Square, waiting for the grand event to begin.

A few days ago, the case of treason against the enemy by an official of the Ministry of War was also suppressed by this major incident. The people are talking about who will win this year. Is it Dading Academy, or Taishang Dojo. The martial arts academy, which was originally one of the big hits, was completely forgotten and no one mentioned it.

Because everyone knows that the Martial Academy has existed in name only. In just a few days, the disciples of the Martial Academy have been divided between the Dading Academy and other academies, and although it is said that the quota for the Martial Academy to participate in the Autumn Formation Ceremony has been retained, there will not be a single person to participate.

Outside the city gate tower, two rows of forbidden soldiers dressed in new clothes and armor stood majestically, holding long lances and not squinting. On the periphery, the light cavalry stationed in Fanggu City patrolled back and forth. Above the city gate tower, Ouchi's guards are waiting for them. On the city wall, Dayan's national flag fluttered in the wind.

The people arrived early, and the entire Jinting Square was surrounded by water. And the major casinos also began to accept bets early, and the people began to go crazy and bet the few money in their money bags into the casino.

The biggest hits this year are undoubtedly the Su Feilun of Dading Academy and the wind of Taishang Dojo. The vast majority of people only pay attention to these popular people. But in fact, the scale of the Autumn Ceremony is far more than just a contest between cultivators, but also an anthology.

The difference between Dayan and other countries is that a very important part of the imperial examination is also held on the day of the Autumn Ceremony. Those students who have studied hard for many years will be able to become famous on this day. The students who can stand out today will participate in the palace examination, they are the best in the scientific examination in various places, and their fate will change on this day.

However, the common people are still concerned about the competition between the practitioners. Not many people's attention is on the side of the temple test, after all, relatively speaking, it is much better for cultivators to fight.

In order to prevent accidents, the Golden Court Plaza is divided into four large areas. The first is the battle of Chuxiong, where the first-level students of the major academies and sects will fight for their own future on this battlefield. Once you become a leader in the battle of Chuxiong, then the future is promising. This is also the best time for many poor disciples to fight in order to change their fate. Once they are in the top few, they will be cultivated to the maximum extent of the Academy's abilities.

The second battlefield is called the Battle of Shenghua, compared with the excitement of the Battle of Chuxiong and the magnificence of the Battle of Bakui, the Battle of Shenghua has a little more realistic flavor. Because most of the people who participated in the Battle of Shenghua have already determined their fate, they are not qualified to participate in the championship, and the only thing that can make their future brighter is to win in this battle, and then find a good position in the official or military.

The third battlefield and the fourth battlefield are parallel to each other, and the one on the left is the battlefield of the Battle of Bakui. Here, the best of the younger generation from the major academies and sects will fight for who is the first. People say that there is no first martial arts and no second, who doesn't want to be the first person of the younger generation of Dayan?

But to become the first person, it takes too much. It is not only about its own efforts, but also about the strength of the family behind it. Therefore, this battle for the top has never been a performance ground for the disciples of the Han Sect. Without the support of a strong family force, there is no way to quickly surpass their peers.

Talent is such a thing, in fact, it's not easy to say.

In the area next to the battle of Bakui, a temporary house was built, which had been basically completely built and overhauled two days ago to ensure that there would be no problems. These houses are divided into small compartments one by one, and no one will see anyone, and on this day they eat, drink, and sleep in this small compartment, and they are absolutely not allowed to enter or leave. Someone will bring them food and water, and even if they ask for wine, they will be satisfied.

Students who take this exam will be waiting for the examiner's approval after completing it today. The best will be selected to participate in the temple examination. Therefore, they only came here to increase the weight of the Autumn Ceremony, and what really determined their future was the palace test in a few more days.

"Look! The king and the queen mother are here!"

Some people in the front row saw the car coming from a distance and immediately shouted, and the crowd boiled. How cruel the struggle in the palace is, the people can't touch it. The arrival of two of the most honorable people in the country at the same time still makes the people feel excited.

The crowd began to surge, and the crowd on the side of Jinting Avenue seemed denser. The soldiers of the forbidden army began to push the crowd back with all their might, to ensure that there would be no chaos when the Empress Dowager Yan passed by for a while.

The Empress Dowager Su Qingnuan and Yan Wang Mu Changyan stood on the huge car and waved to the people. The people were boiling, and the cheers rose higher and higher.

No matter what kind of hardship the country is facing, the people are excited at this moment. After all, people like the Queen Mother and King Yan, they can't be seen casually. Even if they only see a figure in the distance, it is a kind of satisfaction and pride for them.

"Long live the Great Swallow! Long live the King of Swallow!"

Someone started chanting, and everyone shouted: "Long live King Yan!"

Yan Wang Mu Changyan stood on the carriage with a calm face, constantly waving to the crowd. But his heart was not calm at all, this was the first autumn ceremony since he inherited King Yan, and he didn't know if there would be a second time. Originally, this scene, this grand occasion, and even this country had nothing to do with him, but when his eldest brother died, this burden fell on his shoulders.

Mu Changyan muttered to himself: "This is the people of the Mu family, and the ...... of the Mu family."

Empress Dowager Su, who was standing on his side, tilted her head slightly: "What did you just say?"

Mu Changyan smiled: "Erchen said, this is the country of Dayan, the people of Dayan." ”

Empress Dowager Su said with a smile: "Yes, look at them, how humble they are, how easy they are to deceive." It's just a grand event that makes them feel happy and satisfied. For these people, if you give them a little good, they will be grateful. is much stronger than some courtiers, holding Dayan's Yulu, enjoying the high-ranking officials' kindness, and at the same time, he is actually doing the great rebellion of collaborating with the enemy and treason. ”

Mu Changyan subconsciously looked back, and behind the driving team, the Ouchi guards strictly escorted the officials in prison uniforms from the military department to go forward.

The people also saw the men in prison uniforms, and some began to curse: "You bastards!

"Kill them!"

"Five horses split into corpses!"

"Let them die without a place to be buried, Zhulian Nine Clans!"

"If you die, you can't bury their bodies in the land of Dayan, chop them up and feed them to the dogs!"

An official of the Ministry of War muttered to himself in frustration as he walked: "This is the country we are trying to protect, and this is the people we are trying to protect?"

Chen Zaiyan glanced back at him: "Do you regret it?"

The official paused for a moment, then shook his head: "I don't regret it, but I ...... sad"

Chen Zaiyan smiled proudly: "I don't regret it, what we have done for this country and for the people of this country will be fairly evaluated sooner or later." Those who think they are high above will be judged sooner or later. ”

The officer asked, "Can we see it?"

Chen Zaiyan was silent.

Perhaps, I can't see it.

A common man grabbed the wine jug in his hand and smashed it on Chen Zaiyan's face, smashing the corners of his eyebrows, and blood flowed down his face in an instant. However, the forbidden soldiers who were maintaining order outside did not pay attention to it at all, and more debris was thrown at the officials of the military department.

At this moment, a group of light cavalry galloped in, forcing the people to retreat involuntarily. The light cavalry general who led the team glanced at the queen mother's car, then stopped in front of Chen Zaiyan and solemnly gave a military salute: "The last general has seen your lord!"

All the light cavalry soldiers also saluted with their right arms folded across their chests.

They all knew what kind of trouble they might cause by doing so, but none of them cared.

Chen Zaiyan's tears and blood flowed down together, and he nodded vigorously: "You guys...... It's all going to be good. ”

After King Yan and the Queen Mother ascended the city tower, the participating disciples of various academies and sects began to enter one after another. At the forefront is the largest and most anticipated Dading Academy, and the one at the forefront of Dading Academy is naturally Su Feilun. He walked with a flat expression, as if unaffected by anyone. Behind him was a team of hundreds of people from the Dading Academy, mighty and mighty.

"Look, that's Su Feilun Su Gongzi!"

"Su Gongzi, you must win the championship, my belongings are all bet on you!"

"Dading Academy is mighty!"

Following behind Dading Academy is the second most popular Taishang Dojo. There is no state religion in Yan Kingdom, but Taoism has an extremely important position in Yan Kingdom. Think about it, the old Daoist summoned from the big array in the Tianji Palace can guess what kind of role the Dao Sect played in it when Great Yan established the country.

The people who are too high in the dojo, whether they are students or teachers, all of them look so unworldly. They were dressed in Taoist robes, their steps were relaxed, and each of them had their chins slightly raised, looking quite arrogant.

The person who walked in the front of the Taishang Dojo was Feng Xiuyang. He was dressed in a navy blue robe, with a wooden sword tied to his back. Everyone knew about the first-person battle between Feng Xiuyang and Su Feilun, but no one was sure which of them was stronger.

Although the team in the Taishang Dojo was not as large as the people of the Dading Academy, they were greeted with cheers as soon as they appeared. Not for anything else, just because these young Taoists are all handsome, and the screams of the girls are coming and going.

However, as the procession passed, the screams of the girls stopped abruptly.

At the back of the team in the Taishang Dojo, there were two people walking slowly, calmly.

The person in front of him was holding a large flag in his hand, and his body was burly and muscular. The big flag was hunting in the wind, and the four words on the big flag were so eye-catching.

Dayan Martial Temple.

The person who holds the flag is none other than Nie Qing of the Martial Academy.

And the young man who followed Nie Qing, with a longbow hanging on his back, a quiver hanging on his waist, and his eyebrows were not handsome but had his own momentum, was An Zheng.

It's a two-person team.

This is Dayan's martial arts academy.
