Chapter 82: The Imperial Decree and the Imperial Court
Although there was such a thing in the ceremony, the ceremony had to continue, although everyone had no idea of watching the ceremony again, but after all, it was the opening ceremony of the Heavenly Sword Sect, and it was not easy for them to leave directly, which would be too much of a slap in the face of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
The ceremony continued, everyone was uneasy, what happened at this ceremony was too shocking, Tianjianzi actually had such a friendship with the First Emperor.
I saw that he calmly returned to his seat, and Lin Ruofeng continued to preside over the ceremony, a bunch of cumbersome procedures, which were obviously much more formal than those of the Qing Dao Sect.
When the procedure reaches the last item, let the disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect come out to dance the sword, and then let the representatives of the major forces present congratulatory gifts.
This is a procedure that only the top three immortal sects are qualified for, so at that time, the Qing Dao Sect's accession ceremony was just a direct expression of congratulations by the envoys of the major forces.
I saw Li Buxing rising from his seat, and a formation appeared, it was five disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect, since the mountain had not been opened for thousands of years to accept disciples, these disciples were more or less related to the elders of these sects.
Coupled with the inseparable, a total of six disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect danced the sword in their hands together, the sword was like a sleeve flying, and the sword qi collided wantonly in the formation, and the sword qi was vertical and horizontal, making people's blood boil.
I have to say that the Heavenly Sword Sect still attaches great importance to this opening ceremony, and these disciples have practiced hard for a long time to become like this.
At this time, the envoys of the major forces also took out congratulatory gifts one after another to express their congratulations to the Heavenly Sword Sect.
The Immortal Sect headed by the Immortal Spirit Sect and the Demon Gate led by the Nine Prison Gates reported their titles one after another, and then flew the congratulatory gifts in their hands to the top of the square, in front of Lin Ruofeng, who was sitting firmly.
Lin Ruofeng accepted these congratulatory gifts with a smile on his face, Ying Kongchen looked at Chen Jiaguan, who was still sitting steadily, and couldn't help asking, "Didn't Your Majesty prepare a congratulatory gift?"
The birth of the Heavenly Sword Sect, to be honest, has little to do with their Great Qin Empire, but you have sent an envoy after all, and there is no congratulatory gift, which is too embarrassing!
Chen Jiaguan smiled mysteriously and said, "Just continue to watch, little prince." ”
In fact, these people from the Immortal Sect Demon Sect are also very puzzled, in this case, according to the consistent style of the Great Qin Dynasty, they should give a big gift, why is there no movement now?
However, when the sword dance ended, their eyes were no longer on Chen Jiaguan, but on a sect that was not present, the Qingdao Sect!
That's right, the Qingdao Sect didn't come!
The emissaries of many forces have already begun to communicate with each other.
"The Qingdao Sect didn't even send anyone, it's too bold, right?"
"Who says it's not? I'm afraid that the Qing Dao Sect is not hidden for thousands of years, and has forgotten the strength of the Heavenly Sword Sect at the beginning!"
"In other words, the Qingdao Sect is also unlucky enough, a good opening ceremony has become a battle ground between the emperor and the prime minister. ”
"Well, what about our birth?"
Although the envoys of the major forces are divine thoughts, judging from the fluctuations of their souls, they don't hide much from them, after all, the Qingdao Sect is just a bottom immortal sect, and they don't need to scruple about anything.
Ying Kongchen also frowned slightly, how could the Qingdao Sect have such courage, could it be true that he didn't take the Heavenly Sword Sect in his eyes?
Ying Kongchen observed the expressions of the people around him, Chen Jiaguan's face was expressionless, as if he had expected it, and Wang Zhao was the same, without a trace of fluctuation on his face.
Jian Mingyue's eyes flickered, as if he was thinking about something.
Looking at Lin Ruofeng who put away the congratulatory gift, he was also full of smiles, making people unable to see his inner thoughts, I don't know if he knows or not.
Ying Kongchen groaned slightly, it seemed that Lin Ruofeng was not surprised, and it seemed that he also seemed to know in advance.
I don't know if Lin Ruofeng is pretending or just doesn't know, but Ying Kongchen knows that this matter must not be simple.
How could a small Qingdao Sect have such courage not to come to the opening ceremony of the Heavenly Sword Sect, behind the Qingdao Sect, there must be unknown forces behind it.
And the object of Ying Kongchen's suspicion is the one who caused the assassination of the Qing Daozong Emperor's envoy - His Majesty the Emperor!
Otherwise, why Chen Jiaguan and Wang Zhao are so calm, there is no surprise at all.
Also, why did Lin Ruofeng behave like this, was it because of some unavoidable reason, or was he suppressing the anger in his heart?
The ceremony was about to end, and when Lin Ruofeng was about to announce it, Chen Jiaguan came out again, opened another imperial decree, and said loudly: "The fourth emperor of Great Qin has an order, and the Heavenly Sword Sect was born in my Great Qin Empire and has a strong pass, so I specially inscribed four big characters to give the Heavenly Sword Sect." ”
After speaking, Chen Jiaguan once again took out a golden scroll from the storage ring, opened it, and four big characters came into everyone's eyes, "Kendo first"!
Chen Jiaguan saw Lin Ruofeng, who was still in a trance, and said loudly: "Lin Ruofeng, do you receive the order?"
A murderous sentence shocked Lin Ruofeng's heart, and he walked in front of Chen Jiaguan bitterly and said, "Grass people...... The grass people take the order!"
After speaking, Lin Ruofeng respectfully took the imperial decree from Chen Jiaguan's hand, and felt a little difficult to let go, sure enough, from the hands of that young emperor, it was difficult to bargain!
Seeing that Lin Ruofeng took over the imperial order, the envoy of one of the several forces was already gloomy, and that was the envoy of the Cloud Sword Sect.
Looking at the name, you can know that the Cloud Sword Sect is the same as the Heavenly Sword Sect, both of them are the Sword Sect of the Immortal Sect.
Although the Cloud Sword Sect is not as good as the Heavenly Sword Sect, it is not at the level of the Qingdao Sect, and the Cloud Sword Sect is also the top five existence in the Immortal Sect.
Where did this inscription put their Cloud Sword Sect?
You must know that the same Sword Sect in the Immortal Sect, the Cloud Sword Sect and the Heavenly Sword Sect are also in competition with each other, and the inscription of winning the void makes the Cloud Sword Sect unconsciously become much smaller.
However, the faces of the envoys of the other Immortal Sect Demon Sects were not good-looking, and Lin Ruofeng actually took over the imperial order.
You must know that Yingkong has already put a big taboo on this move, and interfered with the Demon Gate of the Jianghu Immortal Sect with the power of the court, except for the first emperor of the year, no dynasty has dared to do this.
Although they were all in a state of seclusion before, they had also experienced the Ji Zhou Dynasty, and some of the ancient sects had even experienced the dark Yin Shang era, no matter what era it was, no one dared to meddle in the Demon Sect of the Immortal Sect.
Don't...... This is a different Daqin?
They couldn't help but feel a trace of sadness in their hearts, their ancestors were suppressed by the First Emperor, and they did not dare to be born for thousands of years, even now, they are just tempting.
And now, they have to obey the orders of the fourth emperor.
They know very well in their hearts that if they have intervened this time, they will definitely intervene next time.
This is the lesson left by the First Emperor back then, and it is also the profound imprint left by the First Emperor on these Immortal Sect Demon Sects back then.
They didn't dare to forget, but what they didn't expect was that this Fourth Emperor would be the same as the First Emperor, and he would interfere with their Immortal Sect Demon Sect forces.
But they didn't dare to make a move, because they knew that once they moved, then they would personally send the reason for the attack to the Fourth Emperor.
They can't help it!
Lin Ruofeng was holding the imperial decree in his hand, the first in the way of the sword, what a fascinating comment, but at the moment his mood was very heavy, and he did not pay attention to the demeanor of these people.
He naturally saw the face of the envoy of the Cloud Sword Sect, of course he knew that the envoy of the Cloud Sword Sect would definitely be unhappy.
If someone commented on the Heavenly Sword Sect like this on weekdays, he would definitely be happy to go to the Cloud Sword Sect to sneak around.
But now he can't, because he knows that the emperor has obviously poked at the sensitive place of the Immortal Sect Demon Sect in the world by doing this.
If he could, he would rather not accept it, however, there was no if in this world, he had to take it, otherwise, once the young emperor in the imperial capital used this as an excuse to send troops to Shuzhou, then the thousand-year-old foundation of the Heavenly Sword Sect would be corrupted in his hands!
The other sect envoys, Lin Ruofeng naturally knew what they thought, was he just afraid that he would collude with the emperor?
Lin Ruofeng looked at the imperial decree in his hand and smiled bitterly, this may be the result that the young emperor wants to see, Lin Ruofeng regretted it a little, why should he ......
In the imperial capital, the court debate is still ongoing, and Ying Kongli is naturally unwilling to listen to Li Tai like this, and put Zhou Li to death, in his eyes, Zhou Li's use value in life is much greater than his death.
Under the eyes of Ying Kongli, a household official stood up and said: "Prime Minister, this is a mistake, everyone makes mistakes, why can't Zhou Shangshu be given a chance to reform himself?"
And those Li Fa's disciples behind Li Tai were not vegetarians, and two people immediately stood up and said: "This adult, people have inherent feelings, but Qin Law is above all else, in front of Qin Law, everything is in vain, therefore, the minister thinks that what the Prime Minister said is reasonable." ”
......
The ministers of the two sides began to quarrel one by one, it looked strange, Zhou Li was originally a member of the Li family, but the Li family was bent on putting Zhou Li to death, while the emperor wanted to protect Zhou Li.
Ying Kongli, who was sitting on the dragon chair, quietly looked at the two ministers who were "making a scene" below, and couldn't help but rub his temples, Zhao Ling saw this, and routinely shouted: "Quiet!"
The court was quiet, this was the procedure that happened every day, and they were already familiar with it!
The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty all looked at Ying Kongli sitting on the dragon chair, and they knew that no matter what kind of quarrel they had here, the person who made the final decision would be Ying Kongli.
So, they're just routinely acting!
Ying Kongli groaned for a moment and said, "Since this is the case, then do it according to the prime minister's wishes!"
After speaking, regardless of the reaction of the ministers, they went directly out of the main hall and entered the back hall, and the ministers were a little confused, they ...... You can't hear it wrong, right?
