Chapter 484: The Battle of the National Teachers

Knowing that the emperor canonized Ning Chuyi as the crown prince, Ling Chu was really surprised.

Ning Chuyi came over that night, although he didn't say it explicitly, but Ling Chu learned from his words that he really didn't have the idea of becoming a prince. Although the crown prince is dead, the second prince is stupid, and the third prince has a disabled leg, the emperor still has two young princes.

One is Xiao Chengyan, the fourth prince born to Concubine Pang Hui, and the other is Xiao Fangyi, born to Concubine Feng Jing.

Although he is not very old, the emperor is still in good health. It is entirely possible to wait for them to grow up, and then choose a new one to be crowned prince.

Ning Chuyi has learned a martial art and has always wanted to go to the border to guard. He even asked her if she would like to leave Kyoto with him after she got married.

Why was this suddenly crowned prince?

Just when he was confused, a little servant hurriedly ran into the flower hall, "The princess, the county lord, Gonggong Cao is here, saying that he has been ordered by the emperor." โ€

Princess Dingyuan and Ling Chu were both stunned.

King Dingyuan went to court in the palace, and if the emperor had anything to say, he could just announce that he would meet him, why did he let his father-in-law come to the palace. Could it be that he is no longer in the palace?

Seeing Gonggong Cao who came in later, the princess didn't beat around the bush, "Gonggong Cao, but looking for the prince?" โ€

Gonggong Cao smiled, "King Dingyuan is in the palace, and the miscellaneous family is following the emperor's instructions to summon the lord of Jiashan into the palace." โ€

Ling Chu was surprised.

The princess was a little worried, and wanted to ask Gonggong Cao why the emperor suddenly summoned Ling Chu into the palace.

Gonggong Cao shook his head, "It's not that the miscellaneous family doesn't want to say it, but that this matter can't be explained in a few words." The emperor and the hundred officials are still waiting, and the county lord needs to hurry up to change his clothes and enter the palace with the miscellaneous family. โ€

Hearing that the emperor and the officials were waiting, the princess became more and more worried, but she couldn't ask anything more.

Ling Chu quickly went and returned.

Seeing her daughter wearing a luxurious county lord's costume, Princess Dingyuan was very happy. Thinking that King Dingyuan was still in the palace, he would protect her, and he was a little relieved.

All the way into the palace.

Gonggong Cao led Ling Chu straight to the Jinluan Palace.

As soon as he walked outside the door of the main hall, Gonggong An, who was standing next to the dragon chair, immediately leaned over and whispered to the emperor.

The emperor raised his eyes and glanced out of the hall and nodded to Gonggong An.

Gonggong An immediately raised his voice and said, "Xuan...... Jiashan County Lord ......"

Although he didn't know why the emperor suddenly summoned him, Ling Chu was not uneasy.

With his back straight, he stepped over the threshold and walked towards the hall without squinting.

Yu Guang saw that her father, Xuan Yizhen, and the two senior brothers were all there, and their faces were calm, and Ling Chu was even more relieved.

As he got closer, Ling Chu saw Ning Chuyi wearing the crown prince's clothes. It's just that the emperor and the hundred officials are watching, and Ling Chu is not easy to talk to him, and his eyes swept over him.

Bow to the emperor.

"The courtiers visit the emperor, long live the emperor."

The emperor had just canonized Ning Chuyi as the crown prince, and he was already in a very good mood. Seeing Ling Chu in a county lord's costume and Ning Chuyi standing side by side in a prince's costume was even more happy.

I feel more and more that these two people are a good match.

Thinking in her heart, Ning Chuchu likes this girl, if he gives the lord of Jiashan to marry Yi'er, she will definitely be very happy.

Although many thoughts flashed in his heart, the emperor's face did not show any of it.

With a gentle expression, he raised his hand towards Ling Chu, "Flat." โ€

After listening to the emperor's words, the corners of Ling Chu's mouth twitched and twitched.

It turned out that the reason why she was announced into the palace was that the emperor announced in front of hundreds of officials that he would canonize her as a national teacher, but she was opposed by most officials.

There are two main reasons for opposition, one is that Kun Dao has never been a national teacher, and the other is that she is too young and not capable enough to be qualified for the position of national teacher.

All the officials knew that the emperor's preferred candidate for the national teacher was Xuanyi Zhenren, thinking that he first proposed to let the county lord of Jiashan be the national teacher, but it was just to wait for everyone to oppose it, and then he proposed to let Xuanyi Zhenren be the national teacher.

In this way, the hundred officials could not refute the emperor's decision again and again.

Unexpectedly, when everyone objected, the emperor did not take the opportunity to propose to let Xuanyi Zhenren be the national teacher. Instead, he proposed to summon those Taoist priests who were interested in becoming national teachers into the palace and let them compete in occult arts.

The winner will be elected as a national teacher.

All the officials felt that the emperor's proposal was very reasonable, and no one objected.

Ling Chu never thought that she wanted to be a national teacher, and besides, her master and two senior brothers were here, no matter which one was more suitable than her.

It's just that she hasn't opened her mouth to refuse, and Xuanyi Zhenren has already said, "Go ahead, let the teacher see if your ability has improved." โ€

Ling Chu knew that his master had always disliked the rules and constraints of the palace, but she also wanted to be free.

"Master, Senior Brother's skills are as good as your true inheritance, let's let Senior Brother go, lest I lose your face."

Ji Yuan shook his head at her with a smile, "The master is old, I am the senior brother, and I have to wait with me." โ€

Senior brother's words, Ling Chu couldn't refute them.

Seeing her eyes looking at herself, Qingfeng immediately raised her hand to block her mouth, and whispered, "Don't look at me, if I hadn't been tired of the various rules in the capital back then, I wouldn't have gone to Xuanqingguan to apprentice." I don't want to be a national teacher, I also want to go down to Jiangnan to see the beautiful scenery everywhere. โ€

Qingfeng said quietly, and the other officials didn't hear it, but the emperor guessed that he didn't want to be restrained.

Xuan Yi Zhenren glared at him and turned to Ling Chu.

"You are my personal disciple, don't be presumptuous. Go ahead. โ€

"Your Majesty, since the county lord of Jiashan has arrived, can you start?"

It was a Taoist who spoke, and when he saw that Xuanyi Zhenren and his apprentices had been talking, he had long been impatient.

Ling Chu hadn't paid attention before, but he turned his head to take a look only to find that there were five Dao Masters standing on the right side of the hundred officials.

I think they are Taoists who have come to compete for the position of national teacher.

The emperor also wanted to see what they were capable of.

Compared to the occult arts, it naturally can't be in the Jinluan Palace.

The emperor got up from the dragon chair and walked out with his feet raised.

Baiguan immediately hulala followed.

Ling Chu knew that he couldn't refuse, so he could only participate.

There was a vacant lot on the right side of the Jinluan Palace, and after arriving, Ling Chu found that six high platforms of different heights had been erected. Obviously, it is used to compete spells for the Taoist masters.

More than ten tables and chairs were placed ten zhang away from the high platform, and the emperor sat down on the top.

Although Xuanyi Zhenren refused to be a national teacher, the emperor has always been extremely polite to him and directly gave him a seat.

The chief eunuch An Gonggong spoke about the rules of the game on behalf of the emperor, and the first round was to call for wind and rain.

I know that the emperor likes Taoist priests, and those who come to participate are Taoist chiefs, and there are no monks.

Qingfeng did not follow Xuan Yi Zhenren, but stood on Ling Chu's side. Seeing that someone had stepped onto the Dharma platform, he immediately introduced her, "That is the Yunfeng Dao Master of Sanqing Mountain." โ€

Ling Chu's gaze fell on him, with some admiration.

On the length of the Cloud Peak Dao is the highest Dharma platform, about twenty zhang high. He flew up with just one spell, sat down cross-legged, and then used the spell to rise ten feet.

It seems that the ability is really good.

He was followed by Master Wei Ran, who was also from Sanqingshan.

Daoist Mingchuan and Daoist Liucheng from Baiyun Temple glanced at each other, and their bodies moved at the same time.

The two candidates are the two lowest platforms.

Lu Zhenren of Yongle Palace raised his eyes and glanced at Ling Chu, raised his feet and walked towards the fifth Dharma platform.

Seeing Ling Chu looking up at the only remaining Dharma platform, he didn't move.

Someone scoffed.

"The county lord is afraid to go up?"
