Chapter Seventy-Two: The Conversation of the Monarch and the Minister
It was extremely rare for Emperor Shang to visit Longxiang Academy again after just over a month, however, the importance of the matter was enough for him to visit Longxiang Academy again, all thanks to the former 'genius'.
After visiting Wu Liang and asking about a series of things, Emperor Shang walked over with leisurely steps and passed by Xia Yi.
"Come along. Emperor Shang dropped a sentence and walked into the distance.
"Father......" Yin Chuyu wanted to come along, but was interrupted by Emperor Shang raising his hand.
"Xia Yi and I will say a few words, you are here to protect Dean Wu. Emperor Shang's tone was very firm, so firm that Yin Chuyu didn't have the courage to speak again.
She knew that even if she said more, it would be useless, but it would anger her father.
Yin Chuyu silently retreated.
Xia Yi looked at it and extinguished hope from the beginning, is this a warning to himself?
Handing Yin Chuyu and his sister a reassuring look, Xia Yi followed behind Emperor Shang and walked into the distance.
The two walked one after the other, walking a distance to ensure that the voices of the two would not be heard by others, and Emperor Shang stopped.
In front of him was a small forest, looking at the shadows of the sparse trees, Emperor Shang was silent for a moment before speaking.
"It's changed, everything has changed. "Inexplicable opening statement.
Xia Yi was on guard, secretly wondering in his heart what Emperor Shang meant by saying this.
No one responded, and Emperor Shang himself continued.
"It used to be my favourite place to be alone, quiet, peaceful and peaceful. It's a pity that with the increasing number of people in Longshoin, this place is no longer quiet. ”
"Everything has changed. Emperor Shang paused and said the same thing again.
This sentence seems to be a hint.
Xia Yi didn't know how to answer, so he simply kept his mouth shut, being a little transparent, it was best that Emperor Shang didn't think of himself again in the end.
Unfortunately, this is destined to be a delusion.
Seeing that Xia Yi was silent, Emperor Shang took the initiative to mention the words that made Xia Yi a little frightened.
"'Even in the face of power, you will not bow your noble head', which is really a deafening and shocking saying. Emperor Shang praised in his mouth, but the tone made people feel chilled.
A cold and powerful momentum emanated from Emperor Shang's body, pressing Xia Yi, who was standing next to him, trembling slightly.
Sure enough, it came!
Xia Yi took a deep breath and tried his best to resist Emperor Shang's imperial qi to prevent his body from continuing to tremble.
Emperor Shang turned his head slightly, his eyes swept over Xia Yi's face, and he couldn't help but sigh when he looked at the stubborn expression on his face.
Suddenly, the surrounding coercion disappeared, and Xia Yi's body regained its relaxation, breathing sharply.
Emperor Shang turned his head again, and sighed as if with emotion: "You, you were stubborn at the beginning. Although the expression was not as visible as it is now, I can understand that your stubbornness is in your bones just by looking at your eyes. What is decided, no one will say, it will not change. ”
"If someone else said this, I would not believe it, but when you hear it from your mouth, I believe it. ”
Xia Yi took a big breath of fresh air, listening to Emperor Shang's tone of 'reminiscing about the past', and couldn't help but have a sense of respect for 'Xia Junzi' in his heart. Even the emperor Lao'er would not be angry when he heard this, and he would not be surprised, which shows that the 'Xia Junzi' was full of righteousness back then, and it was not just talking.
Xia Yi bowed to Emperor Shang, and at this moment he couldn't help but praise Emperor Shang's generosity, as an emperor, with imperial power, he was the least accustomed to being loyal, but Emperor Shang could tolerate Xia Yi's arrogant words, which shows how deep Emperor Shang's favor was to 'Xia Junzi' back then, and he still blesses Xia Yi.
After the "questioning" was over, Emperor Shang unsurprisingly asked about the details of Wu Liang's breakthrough.
"I was just chatting casually with the dean, and I didn't know why he was about to break through all of a sudden, I didn't know what was going on at the time, and I was still by his side for half an hour, when Elder Yang Zhangzhen came, I knew that the dean had realized and was breaking through. ”
Emperor Shang turned around and looked at Xia Yi with a strange expression, wanting to see clearly, what kind of mana this kid had, but the people around him began to break through one after another, as if breaking through the realm was commonplace, and he could break through casually.
Xia Yi had seen too much of Emperor Shang's strange gaze, and just the kind of gaze he encountered in the morning had already made him numb.
"What are you all talking about? I found out that you kid is 'Chrysostom', and all the people you have talked to have broken through the realm, how is your mouth long?" Emperor Shang really felt amazing, and his speech was much more casual than usual.
Xia Yi subconsciously touched his mouth and muttered in a low voice: "This mouth has also brought me a lot of trouble." ”
Emperor Shang looked at him with a smile: "What are you muttering?"
"No! didn't mutter!" Xia Yi hurriedly shook his head and denied it.
Emperor Shang asked about the chat between Xia Yi and Wu Liang, and Xia Yi retold the chat at that time.
After listening, Emperor Shang also fell into a deep silence, and did not say a word until he left.
Emperor Shang left, looking at his expression, it seemed that he left with a stomach full of questions.
Since Emperor Shang came, many people who secretly hated Xia Yi were waiting for Emperor Shang to cure Xia Yi's sin because of Xia Yi's "noble head". As a result, until Emperor Shang left, Xia Yi was fine, there was no sign of punishment, and he could even laugh, as if this matter was so easily revealed.
People sourly said that Xia Yi was really lucky, and Xia Yi himself admitted this, if it weren't for the blessing of 'Xia Junzi', a punishment would be inevitable.
Yin Chuyu and Xia Ye hurriedly came to Xia Yi's side and asked him if he was okay.
After Xia Yi was rescued, he began to tremble again.
"Don't look at who I am, Your Majesty Shengming, think that I have something to say, and don't think that I am at fault, so naturally I will not be punished!"
'There is something in words' is true, but Emperor Shang thinks that the conversation between Xia Yi and Wu Liang has something to say, not his own 'noble head'.
Xia Yicai didn't care about this, since Emperor Shang didn't say anything before leaving, it meant that he had let himself go, and naturally he had to have a good time.
However, after Emperor Shang went back, he sent a decree to come over, which startled Xia Yi, thinking that Emperor Shang only remembered to punish his own crimes after he went back. After hearing this, I found out that it was Emperor Shang who sympathized with Wu Liang and ordered to send the craftsmen who built the royal gardens in the palace to build a landscape in the place where Wu Liang broke through, on the one hand, to commemorate Wu Liang's great achievements, and on the other hand, to encourage the teachers and students of Longxiang Academy to work diligently on the way to cultivation like the dean.
In the will, Emperor Shang issued a series of rewards, but Xia Yi heard the end and did not hear the reward given to him, which made Xia Yi a little unhappy.
The emperor is too picky, isn't he? Not only picking the door, but also holding grudges!
