Chapter 207: Old Acquaintances
Changle Palace, Jiaofang Palace.
The Son of Heaven sat in front of the desk, his hands on his thighs, his eyes were slightly narrowed, revealing a trace of exhaustion, his knife-like lips were tightly pursed, the color was slightly black, with a hint of gray, very similar to his tired face.
The queen and Ying dared to stand in front of him, looking at each other.
Ying dared to rush back to the palace and tell the queen about Wuji, and the queen immediately reported the news to the Son of Heaven. The Son of Heaven was busy all day, and it was not until evening that he took the time to come to the queen's palace. After listening to Ying Dadang's narration, the Son of Heaven didn't say a word for a long time.
The queen was nervous, she didn't know how the Son of Heaven would react. With Mowgli's current realm, if he loses the support of the royal family, he will soon be torn to pieces. However, if you continue to support Mowgli, you may risk being the enemy of the world.
Wuji was too naΓ―ve, it was easy to enter the Heavenly Academy, he didn't concentrate on cultivation, he studied modestly, and he dared to question such an important thing as the ritual.
The major events of the country are only rituals and Rong, and questioning the rituals is undoubtedly digging a self-digging grave. If the rituals that have been used for thousands of years are all wrong, how can the face of the Heavenly Academy be saved?
"Xiao Qi, do you think what he said makes sense?" The Son of Heaven raised his head and looked at Ying Dare quietly.
Ying dared to be stunned for a moment: "Father, no matter what he said right or wrong, he will make Tianyuan fall into passivity." For hundreds of years, the Heavenly Academy has been served by the Ying family, if he is right, the sacrifice is indeed wrong, the reputation of the Academy of Heaven + sweeping, the position of the head of the seven academies is afraid that it will not be guaranteed. If he is wrong, then the royal family supports him to enter the Heavenly Academy, and even serve as a great teacher, is it not an appropriate appointment?"
"I just want to ask you, is there any chance that he is right?" the Son of Heaven asked again, with an accentuated tone.
Ying Dangdang bit her lip and shook her head. "The retainer is ignorant and does not know. β
The Son of Heaven frowned and looked at him left and right. "Xiao Qi, you are not young anymore. It's time to go out and experience the experience, and go to the Phoenix Dance Legion to be a supervisor. β
Ying dared to be frightened inexplicably.
The supervising army is the eyes and ears of the imperial court, and it is a full-time monitoring of the generals in the army, and it has always been unpopular in the army. Sending him to the Fengwu Legion as a supervisor is equivalent to saying that the imperial court does not trust the Fengwu Legion now, so it will send a prince to be the supervisor. It is conceivable that before he arrived at the Phoenix Dance Legion, he became a thorn in his side.
This is a fire pit.
Ying dared to refuse, but when he saw the face of the Son of Heaven, he had to swallow his words back.
"Mowgli is favored by the great power teacher. The great master immortal died, and the affairs of the Heavenly Academy were shared by you and Ying Ziqing. How to settle Wuji, you and Ying Ziqing discussed and discussed, and if you have the charter, you will report it to me to know. The Son of Heaven stood up, gave an order, waved his sleeves, and left.
The queen and Ying dared to send the Son of Heaven away, and then looked at each other. The face is not very good-looking. After a long time, Ying dared to say uneasily: "Queen Mother, how is this good?"
"Your father is right, it's time for you to get down to business. β
"The Queen Mother. I mean, Mowgli......"
"The great master is in retreat, and this matter will be handled by Ying Ziqing. The queen's eyebrows frowned slightly. "At present, the only way to do this is to brake quietly, wait and see what happens, and not make a hasty statement. so as not to give authority to others. β
Ying dared to sigh and stopped.
......
Southwest of Xianyang, ten miles long pavilion.
The spring breeze blew green the willows on both sides of the road. The slightly goose-yellow green stamens are like smoke and mist, along the straight galloping road, stretching into the distance, and the green mountains between the sky and the earth in the distance are integrated, and there is no trace to follow.
Two carriages and two hundred centaur knights dressed in gold armor and decorated with red tassels waited quietly by the gallop.
Ying dared to be a noble status, far from being comparable to Yin Xuan, and the guards for him were the Ti Cavalry in the forbidden army, and these people would stay with him in the Fengwu Legion to protect his safety.
Worthy of being the knights of the Golden Army, these centaur knights are tall and strong, with a knife on their left side, an arrow on their right, and a golden spear in their hands.
Wuji didn't notice this, and he asked again, "Why do you suddenly want to go to the Phoenix Dance Legion?"
Ying Dangdang rolled his eyes, he was mentally prepared enough for Wuji's retardation in this regard, but he still felt that he was overestimated. It's not the first time Mowgli has asked, and it's not the first time he's answered, but Mowgli just doesn't understand the implications.
"Don't ask so much. "Ying dares to talk about him left and right. "You become a great teacher as soon as possible, if you become a great teacher, my life will be guaranteed. β
"Listen to what you mean, it seems that going to the Phoenix Dance Legion to be a prison soldier is still in danger of life?"
"Where there is an army, how can there be no danger?" Ying Dangdang rolled his eyes again. "What's more, the Phoenix Dance Legion has been fighting against Jiuqiang recently. β
"Is there one?" Wuji was stunned for a moment, looking dazed.
Ying dared to stand him couldn't stand him, hurriedly arched his hand, jumped into the car, and fled.
To bow down from a feather to Wuji. "It's a pity that I couldn't watch Gai Hong's sword dance. Mr. Mowgli, if you have the heart to learn swords, don't miss this opportunity. β
Without waiting for Wuji to understand, he wanted to jump on the mount from Yiyu and chase after Yingdang.
"What's going on with these two masters and servants?" Wuji muttered, "It's inexplicable to talk and do things. β
......
After sending Ying Dang away, Wuji immediately rushed back to the Heavenly Academy.
The Heavenly Academy is going to hold a welcome meeting tonight, and the sword dance that will never be forgotten is about to be staged in the Heavenly Academy.
Halfway through, Jing Xiaoyang came to ask for leave, saying that he wanted to go home and have a look.
Since their family of three followed Wuji, they rarely went home. On Chinese New Year's Eve, Wuji subdued Shi Dalong, and later restrained Xing Dahong, and the dark eight doors lost a complete defeat, and since then they did not dare to offend the Jing family, and the destroyed courtyard was also repaired, but Jing Xiaoyang never went home to see. Now that she has a chance to pass by, she wants to go home and see.
Although their family now lives in the house sent by the Shi family, both in terms of scale and decoration, it is better than her original home. But for her, the small courtyard in Jingyang is her home, and even her name comes from her name.
Mowgli agreed. He wanted to check it out, too. For a while, he actually wanted to live in Jing Xiaoyang's house, but later he made a mistake and lived in the small courtyard next to the palace.
"Yangyang, take me to meet your friend from the Flower Shadow Gate. Wuji said: "We haven't repaid her life-saving grace yet." β
Jing Xiaoyang agreed. Wuji actually kept this matter in mind, which made her very happy.
The small courtyard of the Jingjia family is newly decorated, not only the original courtyard has been renovated, but also several houses around it have also been expanded, becoming a large courtyard with five entrances before and after, three courtyards on the left and right, and the original courtyard has become a gatehouse, which still retains the old appearance.
Standing in front of the brand-new gate, Jing Xiaoyang was both familiar and unfamiliar, and he was at a loss for a while.
At this time, a middle-aged man hurriedly walked over, followed by a young man with athletic skills. As soon as the middle-aged man saw Wuji and the others, he immediately rushed to Jing Xiaoyang, and said with a smile on his face: "Dare to ask, but Miss Jing?"
"Who are you?" Jing Xiaoyang glanced at the middle-aged man up and down, and said vigilantly.
"I'm Xing An, his name is Xing Ping, we are all people who open the door, on the orders of the master of Xingmen, we are here to take care of the small courtyard, waiting for the nobles to come at any time. β
Jing Xiaoyang breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.
"What about this ...... Is it a nobleman?" Xing An looked at Wuji, and the smile on his face became even more humble.
Jing Xiaoyang pursed his lips with three points of pride. "That's right, that's my master. β
Xing An and Xing Ping didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly saluted Wuji, and then explained their tasks.
They were all ordered by Xing Yuanzhi to take care of the Jing family's courtyard here, waiting for the Jing family's people to come back at any time. In fact, they didn't expect Mowgli to come at all, and when they heard Lizheng's announcement that there was a giant accompanying them, they immediately realized that Mowgli might be coming, so they hurried over.
Wuji razed General Shi Dalong to the ground on Chinese New Year's Eve, and used a heavy hand to control Xing Dahong, who almost died at his hands. After this battle, Dark Bamen knew that he was not a Mowgli opponent, and he no longer dared to take the initiative to make trouble. After Wuji cured Xing Dahong, Xing Yuanzhi funded the re-establishment of the Jing family, and bought several nearby residences to expand the Jing family.
Because Jing Xiaoyang's family never came back, Xing Yuanzhi arranged for Xing An and Xing Ping to take care of them here.
Mowgli is very satisfied with this. The restoration of the small courtyard is secondary, and Xing Yuanzhi's interest is very important, so that the hatred between him and the Dark Eight Sect will not be further intensified.
Xing An knew his identity, so he didn't dare to ask Wuji directly, but asked Jing Xiaoyang for advice with a respectful face. "Are you passing by, or are you going to come back for a long stay?"
Jing Xiaoyang raised his head and said proudly, the master now lives in the mansion next to the palace, and will not come back to live at all, this time she just came back to take a look, and then she was ready to visit her good sister, Pin Yuxuan's Hua Langyue.
Xing An listened, and hurriedly ordered Xing Ping to report to the door master, and he led Wuji and the others to Pin Yuxuan. Wuji stopped him, he didn't like the pomp and circumstance to be too big, and he was suspected of disturbing the people. Xing An didn't dare to disobey, so he had to accompany Wuji around the courtyard, and then sent Wuji away.
Of course, although Wuji didn't think it was necessary, he still sent the news to the Xing family as soon as possible.
Wuji and his entourage came to Pin Yuxuan, and they were quite excited. He was a man in two lives, and it was the first time he set foot in the land of Fengyue, and more importantly, he came to find Hualangyue to hear the legendary seven spring crying techniques and see what amazing skills they were.
Just when Wuji's little heart was pounding, a person squeezed over from the side, was stopped by Lin Fei, and couldn't step forward, so he had to shout loudly: "Second senior brother, second senior brother, do you remember me? I'm Liang Xiao." β
Mowgli looked at it and couldn't help but be a little surprised. "Brother Liang, you ...... How did you get here?"
"Haha, a few friends got together for a drink, but I didn't expect to see you here. Liang Xiao smiled exaggeratedly: "I said why did I hear the magpie cry as soon as I went out today, it turned out that I wanted to reunite with the second senior brother after a long absence." Come on, second senior brother, please inside, give me a face today, and I invite you to drink. β-
