Chapter Seventy-Six: Entering the Palace for the First Time
After breaking through the peak of the Nine Heavens, Qin Qing calmed down the excitement in his heart a little, and walked back to the Imperial Capital City again, as if nothing had happened, and returned to the Juxian Pavilion.
In the Juxian Pavilion, he didn't want to cultivate, there were many people here, there was no need to expose himself and be a bird.
Shut himself in the room, took out a copy of the 'Xuanyuan Continent Experience' and read it, this is a lot of basic knowledge in the Xuanyuan Continent, Qin Qing is weak in this regard, just use his free time to make up for it.
Whenever he thought of the five-year agreement with Youchao, Qin Qing felt a sense of urgency in his heart, and he must not waste a single moment of time.
Around midnight, the lights in most of the rooms in the Juxian Pavilion had been extinguished, and most of the people had rested, but the oil lamp in Qin Qing's room was still bright.
At this moment, there was a commotion outside the Juxian Pavilion, and many torches suddenly lit up outside the gate, as if something had happened.
"What's going on?" Qin Qing was a little strange, this was the imperial capital of the Chuba Empire, and the Juxian Pavilion was also the elite of the younger generation of the empire, could anyone still dare to make trouble in the Juxian Pavilion.
Looking through the gap in the window, two groups of ironclad guards poured into the courtyard between them, standing in two rows, holding torches, as if waiting for someone.
Outside the gate, a handsome man wearing a purple and gold crown and a white robe slowly walked into the Juxian Pavilion. Several leaders of the Eightfold Heaven and even the Ninth Heaven Gathering Elite Pavilion followed behind him very respectfully.
"Little Grandpa Xiangcheng, according to His Majesty's order, everyone must live in the Juxian Pavilion for two days now, and wait for the summons. I've wronged you!" the great military attache of the Juxian Pavilion followed behind the young man, his attitude almost a little stammered.
The young man wearing the purple and gold crown frowned slightly, looking at the Juxian Pavilion in front of him, as if he was not very satisfied.
"That's it, since it's Your Majesty's order, it's hard for me to disobey it. It's going to be just two days here. But find me a separate place to live, my husband is noble, and I don't want to mix with those reckless people. The young man said proudly.
"Yes, little grandfather, please come with me. The great military attache hurriedly led the way in front and led the young man to a side courtyard in the Juxian Pavilion.
After the young man, the guards in the courtyard also dispersed, and the Juxian Pavilion returned to calm. It can be seen that such a big battle is just to welcome this person.
"It's really poor, a duke has such a big shelf, the king of Qianfeng County is still the emperor's own son, and the official title of the county king is not so coaxing. ”
Qin Qing held back his mouth and continued to read.
However, he had heard of this little grandfather of Xiangcheng, and the two people in the next room had also mentioned it in their conversation during the day.
The Xiangcheng family has distant relatives with the royal family, and the entire family monopolizes an entire mansion, Linbian Mansion. Linbian Province is the border area of the Chu Empire, responsible for defending against foreign invasions for many years, and the family was named a duke because of its military exploits and blood relations, which is a distant branch of the royal family.
Xiang Cheng is the first heir of their family, twenty years old, the peak cultivation of the Nine Heavens, an absolute genius. You must know that when Qin Potian entered the peak of the Nine Heavens, he was also twenty years old, and the talent of these Xiang Cheng did not seem to be much weaker than Qin Potian.
However, Qin Potian was born in the Qin family, the weakest of the nine great families of Tianhe Mansion, and the Xiangcheng family monopolized a mansion and was the heir, and the cultivation resources that the two of them possessed were one in the sky and one in the ground.
This time, Xiang Cheng came on behalf of Linbian Mansion, and his identity was still Qin Qing, and like them, they were all winners of the trials of various prefectures. However, with Xiang Cheng's status in Linbian Province, I am afraid that he will be directly promoted.
After a small episode, calm returned to the Juxian Pavilion, and Qin Qing continued to read.
......
There was nothing to do for two days, and at dawn on the third day, the flags outside the Juxian Pavilion were displayed, and the teenagers in the Juxian Pavilion got up from their beds early in the morning, dressed in costumes, and entered the palace to participate in the banquet of Emperor Chuba.
Qin Qing was wearing a fiery red brocade robe, with a dragon embroidered on the robe, and the word 'Tianhe' on the cuffs. The red clothes represent Qin Qing's cultivation of fire and Xuan Qi, and Jiaolong means the royal family, and the person who embroiders the Jiaolong brocade robe is, to a certain extent, like the entire empire, declaring that these people are wanted by the royal family, and whoever dares to touch them will not give the royal family face.
The officers and soldiers sounded the gong to open the way, Qin Qing and the others all wore red and hung colors, and the gods and horses under their crotches slowly walked to the palace at the end of the road along a large road in the middle line of the imperial capital.
The road at the foot is the royal road, usually only the direct royal family and the emergency military can walk on it, the road is ten zhang wide, paved with white marble. Both sides of the road were crowded with people from the imperial capital who came to watch at this time.
Listening to the cheers on both sides of the road, as well as the envious looks in the eyes of countless young people, Qin Qing sat on the horse and nodded slightly to both sides, but he was a little dumbfounded in his heart, this is very similar to the scene of being admitted to the top student in ancient times.
Probably Emperor Chuba also used this method to establish the determination of the young people of the whole country to cultivate diligently, and at the same time enhance the loyalty of the trial winners of each province to the royal family. Let everyone know the Tao, as long as you cultivate diligently, you can get ahead, and there will be a day when you will glorify your ancestors.
About half an hour later, I finally came to the palace, the walls of the palace were dark black, solemn, and there were many mottled swords, guns and sword marks on the ten-zhang high city wall.
A hundred years ago, the Chuba Empire was once broken by the enemy, and the enemy directly hit the palace, and after a bloody battle, finally retreated from the enemy, and the traces of the battle were left on the city wall. Emperor Chuba's talent was strategic, and after that, he ordered to keep these traces as a vigilance and be prepared for danger in times of peace.
After arriving at the Imperial City, the guards of the Juxian Pavilion could not follow up, but changed to a team of Ouchi guards to lead the way.
There are a total of twenty guards, all of whom are cultivators of the Nine Heavens, and the leader of the guards is probably already the peak strength of the Nine Heavens. Looking at his appearance, he is at most forty years old, and he can reach the peak of the Nine Heavens at this age, looking at the entire Chuba Empire, he can be regarded as very talented.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the Imperial Palace, please dismount. The leader of the guards smiled at everyone, showing some kindness.
"Back then, the official was also the champion of the trial in his hometown, and he was favored by the emperor and left as the leader of the guard. Count you as your brother, haluha. After you meet the saint this time, Your Majesty will issue an order to give you a future, some are officials, some are cultivators, some are like me, stay in the palace as a guard, and some, hehe, I can't say it now, so when you meet the saint, if you have the opportunity, you must perform well and show your strength, so as to find a good way out for yourself. The head of the guard kindly reminded.
The guards said it very easily, but everyone knew that since it was personally received and assigned by His Majesty, it was His Majesty's cronies. In the future, whether it is an official or cultivation, what else will he do, the speed will far exceed that of ordinary colleagues.
Following the leader of the guards towards the depths of the palace, after passing through a corner gate, Qin Qing's eyes lit up, in front of him was a huge garden, several times larger than the Qin family's martial arts training ground, enough to accommodate thousands of people without looking crowded.
A middle-aged man in a yellow robe sat on a throne from a distance, talking to the people around him, and from time to time burst into a hearty smile.
