Almost at the moment when the word "ice" burst out, Qianxia in the air was frozen in the air, reflecting the dazzling red light crystal clear.

"Emperor!" someone shouted excitedly.

The emperor looked back lightly and said coldly to Bai Shunyu: "You guys go to the next one! ”

Bai Shunyu glanced at Qianxia in the air, and saw that his eyes were still a little fierce, so he couldn't help but tremble, and hurriedly turned his head to evacuate the crowd.

The madman looked at the emperor, he wanted to stay. The scene just now really frightened him, and he couldn't leave alone, leaving the emperor in danger.

"If you want to be fair, let's go. The emperor seemed to see through his thoughts, and said to him lightly.

Qianshui also persuaded on the side, "Don't worry, it's okay, we'll deal with it." Fair competition, they're still watching you. ”

The madman looked back slightly, and saw hundreds of pairs of eyes looking at him, some anxious, some disgusted, and some at a loss as to what had happened. He hesitated, "Okay. Then you ......"

He paused, looking at the emperor's dark eyes, the blue light in his eyes flowing, "It's okay." With that, he hurried into the group.

The emperor's heart warmed, but he sighed again, turned to look at Qianxia who was frozen by himself in the air, a little helpless.

"Brother Wang, a thousand times...... What's going on?" Qianshui asked softly when he saw that everyone had left. In fact, he could probably guess in his heart, but just in case he was wrong, he decided to ask, hoping that there was a possibility of a turnaround.

The emperor sighed, "Fourth ......"

Qianshui chuckled in his heart, the fourth time, is Qianxia going to die again......

"Lone is freezing his soul and not letting him leave his body, lest the seal in his body be broken at this time, and his strength will return and cause casualties. The emperor looked at the red pupils staring at him in the ice crystal, and sighed lightly: "When you recover your senses, Lone will let you go." ”

"What does Brother Wang mean that he won't die?" Qianshui frowned, and he wanted to laugh at his own questions.

But the emperor said without a smile: "Of course you will die." If his power hadn't been sealed, he could have forced out the poison, but ......"

"But when he died last time, in order to recover better, he sealed his own power, but he didn't expect that before he fully recovered, he would be in danger again, so he ...... He's going to die again. Qianshui bitterly took the emperor's words, and the emperor nodded helplessly and acquiesced to his words.

"But you said that his soul was frozen in ice?" Qianshui asked again unwillingly.

The emperor shook his head, "You'll find out later." ”

Before the words fell, Qianxia's red pupils suddenly flickered twice, instantly dimmed, lost their lustre, and finally closed their eyes.

"He's dead......" Chisui choked out in disbelief.

The emperor also turned around sadly, unable to bear to see this scene.

"What now, send him back to the Red Mansion?" Qianshui asked, settling his mind.

With a wave of his hand, the ice quickly cracked, turning into stars and ashes and scattering, and without waiting for a thousand rivers to ask, the emperor flew up to catch the falling thousand times.

"Big brother......" Chishita called weakly.

The emperor's body trembled and fell lightly to the ground. Every time Chixia called him like that, it was when his mind or body was extremely fragile, and he was a little uneasy.

"How is it?" the emperor asked pretending to be calm, while he also straightened a thousand and sat upright, and used his skills behind his back to heal his wounds.

Qianxia nodded slightly, "The soul has left the body, and the seal has broken ......," he said, and he was also adjusting his breath with the emperor's luck.

Qianshui on the side watched quietly, he sometimes always felt that the emperor and Qianxia were brothers, and he seemed to be an outsider...... But they think so too, right? Everybody feels like an outsider......

"There's something wrong with that snake. The emperor said with a frown as he exercised.

"There's a problem...... Chisui muttered, "Indeed, it was going to get close to the madman at the time." ”

"But when it approached the cloud madness, it suddenly lost control, as if it was afraid of something...... "Chishita also took over. His face had softened a lot, and the venom had melted into his body with the departure of his soul—this was the ultimate control over all things, and if you wanted to live, and if you wanted to die, you would die.

"Wounded. The emperor's cold eyes lifted and said solemnly.

Thousands of rivers and thousands of bodies were shocked, but they didn't say anything, they finally acquiesced to the emperor's judgment, or rather, they thought the same way. But what is it afraid of?

All three of them stopped talking, and the topic seemed a little heavy among them.

-----

"The emperor is fine. ”

As soon as the ten examiners walked to the door of the Shang Palace Bureau worriedly, a palace attendant came and whispered to them.

As soon as these words came out, they all breathed a sigh of relief. The emperor is fine, then they can unload their burdens and take the exam easily. Bai Sunyu was the first to grin a bright smile—although no one could see under the hat—and walked to the top of the seven steps of the Shanggong Bureau, looking at the three hundred and one candidates who were standing one after another.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the fourth level is the tolerance in the virtue of the speech, that is, the demeanor. Bai Shunyu wandered in front of the temple gate and said, "So, manners, how to take the test?" He pretended to sell a pass, walked to the first row of Ye Xinyun in front of him, looked up at the sun in the west, and smiled, "Just now, in Wujianping, the night master was a little untenable?"

Ye Xinyun's face changed, although the other party was wearing a hat veil, he still heard the identity of the other party. It's just that he didn't expect that Bai Shunyu would also hear what he was talking to Lin Xiao in the Hall of Speech at that time, the emperor ......

"Don't worry, the emperor didn't hear it. Bai Shunyu quietly stepped forward and muttered a few words, and then paced to the middle as if nothing happened, and continued: "Everyone, standing from this time to sunset is not long, only half an hour. In the meantime, everybody has to smile — smile. ”

Just as someone was about to say something, Bai Shunyu immediately picked up his words and said with a hurried smile: "Hey, don't break discipline, once I see who is talking, you can lead the carriage back home." ”

The person who was about to speak and complain immediately tightened his mouth. And Ye Xinyun rolled her eyes at him.

Bai Shunyu naturally didn't see the situation behind him, he nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, we will ring the gong at sunset, and then you need to immediately return to the place where you bathed when you entered the palace, that is, the place where you stored your clothes, that will be the place where you rest tonight, dinner will be delivered there on time, if you are hungry for a day, you are not welcome." All right, stand still. ”

Bai Shunyu nodded, talked and laughed with the examiners and retreated to the shadows, put on a cloak and sat on the Taishi chair, Meng Kuangfu prepared desserts and clear soup for them, and the ten people just talked and laughed by themselves, and accompanied by the food.

The concubines swallowed their saliva, after all, it was the breakfast they used before entering the palace, and it had been almost six or seven hours, and they were really hungry. Of course, some people are also glad that they took the opportunity to taste a few more bites when cooking in the second level, which can be regarded as better than not eating.

As the minutes passed, some people gradually couldn't hold it anymore and swayed their bodies.

Bai Shunyu nodded to Bai Ye (Bai Shang Palace), because Bai Ye was the examiner of this level - the most important thing was that it was inconvenient for him to say some things by himself, so he could only find this somewhat naïve Bai Ye to say.

Don't look at Bai Ye looking like he is forty or fifty years old, his head has never been enlightened at all.

Bai Ye saw Bai Shunyu nodding to himself, immediately stood up, came out and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, you must hold on." Do you know why you have been standing for so long? I believe you must know that every three years in our northern kingdom there will be a great court meeting, and all the concubines and courtiers will attend at that time. ”

"As a concubine, demeanor is very important. You represent the image of the concubine of the northern country, and your every move, smile and smile is likely to be respected by the people and respected by all ethnic groups and tribes. ”

Bai Ye's seriousness provoked Sima Tang (Sima Shanggong) to hold back a laugh, "What's wrong with Bai Ye today." I didn't stumble when I spoke, and I still had a set. ”

Meng Kuang took a bite of the rose cake and shrugged, "Maybe it was the emperor's 'critical moment' just now that scared him away." ”

"What. Bai Shunyu smiled secretly, took a sip of the cool and tranquil sweet soup, and said, "I told him to carry it in advance." Just his brain, if you don't do it before, how can he figure it out on his own. ”

Everyone was about to laugh, but when they remembered that this was still the time of invigilation, they immediately held back their laughter, and continued to listen carefully with a flushed face.

Fortunately, Bai Ye, who was in front of him, was very engaged, and did not pay attention to the "slander" of the nine people behind him, and said exaggeratedly: "...... But as you know, not everyone is allowed to attend this feast. If you enter the palace, you will be qualified to participate in this great court meeting, but at the time of the great court meeting, the officials below the fifth rank are not seated. ”

"That is to say, when you participate in the Great Pilgrimage, a considerable number of people will not be able to attend the banquet, and you will have to serve from the side. This service is not to let you serve tea and water, but to serve the emperor...... Support the scene, you know, that's it......" Bai Ye forgot his words a little and reluctantly explained.

Bai Shunyu stretched out his hand, posed as "What am I talking about", and smashed his head twice with his fist, "Helpless......"

"Ahem, in short, it's very likely that you'll be standing from beginning to end, and you'll be smiling and dignified like you are now. Don't feel like there's anything, that's what it takes to enter the palace...... The price, I guess that's what I say. Bai Ye twinked his fingers in his sleeve twice and muttered twice.

He forgot the words again. Tong Yingcai stirred the sweet soup twice with a porcelain spoon, and stated the facts seriously and indifferently.

"Anyway, you have to stand like this. This is the way to go, the basis of the test of manners. Bai Ye hurriedly concluded, "Okay, the time is almost up, let's insist on it." Agreed, if you can't stand, the carriage is outside the palace gate, waiting at any time. ”
