Chapter 679: Xiangyan Invitation
In fact, for Song Li, it is indeed not a show that he has a sense of closeness to ordinary people. [Full text reading] / With his status, there is no need to do this kind of boring political show at all. In the final analysis, it was because he was also an ordinary grassroots in his previous life, and he had a sense of closeness to the common people. I can't see them being bullied by the powerful. This reason is not enough to communicate with outsiders also.
President Cui was so happy that his mouth couldn't close together, and his angry voice spread far and wide, and said: "On behalf of the Alchemist Guild of the Holy Lion Empire, I officially announce a great piece of good news, this Elder Song Li has been promoted to a third-level Saint Dan Grandmaster! Since the last Saint Pill Grandmaster passed away, this guild has not produced a Saint Rank Dan Master for a full hundred and twenty-three years! Now someone has finally filled this gap! No one will dare to laugh at us in the future! The Alchemist Guild of our Holy Lion Empire has always had the reputation of the chief guild of the mainland. However, in the past hundred years or so, the title of 'No. 1 in the Continent' will only make us feel ashamed! What kind of chief of the continent is an Alchemist Guild without a Saint Dan Grandmaster? Now, we not only have a Saint Dan Grandmaster, but also the youngest and most talented Saint Dan Grandmaster in the past, may I ask, do they have it?"
"No, they can't have!" the people below heckled with Chairman Cui.
Chairman Cui smiled and said, "That's right, they can't have it! In the future, we can honestly call ourselves the 'chief of the continent', and if anyone is not convinced, we will also send a twenty-year-old Saint Dan Sect Master out to take a look." ”
"That's right, if anyone is not convinced, they will send a twenty-year-old Saint Dan Sect Master out to take a look. The people below continued to cheer.
President Cui said happily: "To become a Saint Dan Grandmaster, there will be an official coronation ceremony, and when the time comes, the Alchemist Guilds of the countries on the mainland, as well as the various sect families, will send people to congratulate them. It's been a hundred and twenty-three years since our Alchemist Guild had held such a coronation ceremony, so this time, the old man decided to make a big deal, and I can't tell the world that the Alchemist Guild of our Holy Lion Empire has cultivated an unprecedented alchemy wizard! This is the pride of our Alchemist Guild, and it is also the pride of all the Holy Lion people!"
"Proud, proud!" The people below were instigated by Chairman Cui to boil, and the scene shook the sky!
"The day of the Grandmaster's coronation is set in seven days, and the venue is in the square here, and I look forward to your visit!" said Chairman Choi with a smile.
The old man has already let go of the gains and losses of honor in his heart, and the reason why he is so high-profile is for Song Li in the final analysis. He knew that there was a vicious fight between Song Li and the Holy Emperor, and sooner or later one of the two would fall, of course he hoped that this fallen Saint Emperor would not be Song Li. So he will help him and build up momentum for him as much as he can.
Song Li became a third-level Saint Dan Grandmaster at the age of twenty, and this matter would definitely spread throughout the continent in a short period of time. What is certain is that there must be many strong people who want to come and attach themselves to the news, but they don't have a suitable opportunity. Therefore, President Cui decided to hold this coronation ceremony for him, and when the time comes, the powerful people from all sides will gather together, and there will definitely be many people who surrender on the spot, adding so many strong helpers out of thin air, and the Holy Emperor should also have a headache.
The Alchemist Guild and the royal family have been fighting against each other for so many years, and President Cui naturally believes that the strength of the royal family is by no means as simple as it appears on the surface. In addition to these regular armies and secret agencies, there are also many strong people hidden in the deep palace, they are lurking in the dark, and they will only come out when the situation is critical, or when the Holy Emperor summons them. Song Li must also have a strong man with enough weight as a helper to deal with those mysterious masters sent by the Holy Emperor in the future.
Although Song Li has risen quickly and is strong enough, his biggest shortcoming is the lack of sufficient talent reserves. Especially the talent pool at the elite level. Compared with the hundreds of years of operation of the royal family, Song Li's foundation is still a little thin. Therefore, President Choi will do his best to help him enrich his foundation.
Song Li naturally knew this. So gladly follow it. Since he chose to announce the news of his promotion to the Holy Rank in a high-profile manner, he was not afraid that President Cui would make the scene bigger. The identity of the Holy Dan Grandmaster was originally a talisman, and if the Holy Emperor wanted to move him in the future, he really had to think about it. Song Li also believes that there will be many strong people who will rush to Toucheng when they hear the news, and at that time, he will inspect it as appropriate, and the qualified ones will be taken by his side to be thugs. Of course, he also understands that this kind of dew marriage is purely a relationship of mutual use, which is fundamentally different from the lineage he has cultivated. However, the strong are numerous and in themselves a deterrent to the enemy. If you lose, you can't lose, that's what you say.
The Holy Emperor sat there, watching tens of thousands of people cheering for Song Li, and his heart was quite uncomfortable. People were only concerned with cheering for this freshly baked Saint Dan Grandmaster, and seemed to have forgotten about him, the king of a country. Who is the most dazzling person in this empire? It should have been him, the Holy Emperor, isn't it? But why does Song Xingtian feel that he has become a complete supporting role? And he is still the kind that hides in the corner and no one cares.
The Holy Emperor was annoyed and angry, but he couldn't attack. In this moment of universal celebration, if he has a seizure, it is equivalent to him admitting that he is jealous of Song Li. The face of the emperor of a country can be completely lost! Fortunately, the Holy Emperor's kung fu cultivation to hide his anger and anger is very good, and he can still laugh at this time, he is full of joy, walks up to President Cui, and says loudly: "Congratulations to President Cui, congratulations to the Alchemist Guild, and congratulations to Song Lixian's nephew! The youngest Saint Dan Grandmaster in history was born in our country, this is the blessing of the society and the people, and it deserves to be written in a big book!"
Chairman Cui smiled and said, "It's also a blessing from His Majesty the Holy Emperor." With the protection of Grandmaster Shengdan, His Majesty will naturally live a long life, and the country will be stable. ”
The Holy Emperor said in his heart that Lao Tzu's blessing and longevity are a fart, and if he is not angry with this little bastard, he will burn high incense, but he still talks and laughs calmly on the surface, and says: "That's it, Grandmaster Shengdan is in the imperial capital, and he is still a member of my royal family, and I am close to the water building, so I naturally benefit a lot, haha, haha!"
Chairman Choi also laughed and said, "That's natural. ”
Song Li skimmed slightly, there is no way to be close to the water, your old boy is only afraid that it is true that he wants to jump off the building at the moment. It's just that he didn't resist the superficial greetings, and there was a general rule that he and the Holy Emperor belonged to the internal struggle at the top level, that is, this kind of struggle should not be superficial in front of outsiders, otherwise it would be too low-level.
Especially in front of King Rambis, this contradiction cannot be revealed, and the ugliness of the family must not be publicized.
"Song Lixian's nephew, you have really earned face for our Song family, and the Holy Ancestor and his old man's spirit in the sky will definitely feel gratified. Back then, he used to be so important to the alchemist, and now among his descendants, there is also a Heavenly Genius Saint Pill Grandmaster!Uncle Saint Emperor sincerely hopes that your skills can serve my Song Clan's thousand-year-old foundation!" The Holy Emperor stared at Song Li with deep meaning.
"Haha, Uncle Holy Emperor said with a smile, Song Li can have today's achievements, thanks to Uncle Holy Emperor's encouragement all the time, without your supervision behind him, the little nephew's progress would not be so fast. Thank you. Song Li stared at the Holy Emperor with a smile, and the cold light in his eyes flickered.
The conversation between the two of them sounds fine at first glance, but when you think about it carefully, it still has a lot of meaning.
Audrey, King of Rambis. Helen naturally didn't know the discord between the two uncles and nephews, she walked over and said with a smile: "Your Majesty the Holy Emperor, I didn't expect that there are such young heroes in your country, Daima National Master is known as the chief alchemy genius in my country, but when he arrived in your country, he returned with a feather, it seems that your country is really a place where the dragon and the tiger are hidden." It is a big country with many talents, and it is indeed worthy of its reputation. Is there a young hero like Song Li under His Majesty's hands? If there is, I will pay a lot of money to hire him. ”
The Holy Emperor laughed and said, "Your Majesty is serious, the Rambis Kingdom is also an ancient country with a long civilization, and the demeanor of the national teacher of Daima is still quite heartbreaking. As for Song Lima, he is indeed the pride of my Song royal family and the pride of my holy lion people. However, a young talent like him is the only one in the world, and there is no other semicolon. I just want to let him work for you, but I'm afraid that the people of my country won't agree. You don't know, this kid has a very high prestige in the eyes of the people. If I get rid of him, the people will have to fight against me. ”
His words were a bit heart-wrenching. It sounds like a casual ridicule, but it actually alludes to Song Li's buying people's hearts, bewitching the people, and making him, the emperor, a bogeyman.
Song Li naturally understood, but he pretended not to hear, the common people are not stupid, who is good to them, they know very well in their hearts. If the people's hearts can be easily bought, won't all those who are rich and rival the country be emperors? You old boy is unwilling to manage the people's hearts with his heart, but you want to accuse me in this regard? I don't bother to pay attention to you.
Audrey. Helen didn't know what kind of dumb riddle they were playing, and chuckled: "Since His Majesty the Holy Emperor is so talented, Helen can't win people's love." However, Helen has a reluctant request, I wonder if His Majesty the Holy Emperor can agree?"
"Your Majesty says that it is all right, as long as it does not violate the laws of our country, public order and good customs, and does not disrupt the peaceful situation between the two countries, there is no reason to deny it. ”
"Thank you so much. "Audrey. Helen's azure eyes rippled on Song Li's body, and she pursed her lips and smiled: "Helen first came to your country, and was impressed by the prosperity and profound cultural heritage of the imperial capital, but she didn't have a decent guide around her. Therefore, I would like to invite His Royal Highness King Ming to accompany me to visit the Holy Lion City in my personal name, I wonder if His Majesty the Holy Emperor has any opinions?"
