"Your Majesty!" Zi Baifeng saw Ji Yan standing on the steps, bowed his hand slightly, and strode up.

A trace of unhappiness flashed on Ji Yan's face, and Zi Baifeng's not very respectful attitude made Ji Yan feel a great offense in his heart, and the glass heart in his heart that refused to stop suddenly began to feel pain again.

In just a few days, after my Emperor Extreme Ascension Technique is successful......

What will happen after the Emperor's Ascension Technique? Ji Yan suddenly choked.

Don't...... Want to kill Zi Baifeng?

Although he really fantasized about this kind of thing in his heart, at this moment, Ji Yan didn't dare to really do it.

And he had fantasized a lot, after seeing Zi Baifeng, how to suppress his arrogance and make him bow to himself, but when he finally saw Zi Baifeng, he found that his chrysanthemum tightened, his legs subconsciously tightened, and even the smile on his face was subconsciously enthusiastic.

"Zi Aiqing!" Ji Yan took a few steps forward to cover up the panic in his heart, he didn't know why he was so flustered, but he had a feeling of weakness in his eyes at Shangzi Baifeng.

After all, Ji Yan is not a generation of heroes, he is just an emperor who has been supported, although he is already very good, but as an emperor, he is still a lot behind.

Not to mention, Zi Baifeng once left too strong an impression in his heart.

"Zi Aiqing, you are finally willing to come to see me!" Ji Yan laughed, patted Zi Baifeng's shoulder, and took the initiative to hold Zi Baifeng's hand.

Several of the guards behind him glanced at each other and exchanged an uncertain look.

In the imperial study, the two sides sat down, and suddenly someone served fragrant tea, and Ji Yan looked exactly like a very friendly emperor.

After greeting for a while, Zi Baifeng went straight to the point and asked, "Your Majesty, there is a sentence, Baifeng doesn't know whether to ask or not." ”

"Zi Aiqing, just say what you have to say. Ji Yan smiled.

Zi Baifeng frowned slightly, said what he saw, and said: "Your Majesty, now that the evil demons are invading, the demon world is secretly plotting, and there are even more fallen immortals who don't know where to move, the situation is critical, why is Shangjing still singing and dancing, and there is no urgency, does your Majesty forget that when the Tianguang Gathering Spirit Pagoda was activated, the red land was thousands of miles, and the heavens and the earth were almost collapsing?"

"Alas, Zi Aiqing, you don't know something, as an emperor, it's not as simple as it seems. Ji Yan has actually been waiting here for a long time, he sighed, his words were sincere, and he was extremely equal: "Now that the western Zaitianfu has been hit hard, it urgently needs a lot of manpower and material resources, and Shangjing has always been a rich place, and it still needs to contribute money and efforts, so it must not be messed up." ”

Zi Baifeng thought about it carefully, but he felt that what the emperor said made some sense, but he was a little angry, got up and saluted: "I see, Bai Feng is too impulsive, please forgive your majesty." ”

"Where, where, if it weren't for Zi Aiqing, my Heavenly Empire would have been a country a long time ago, and what Zi Aiqing did was also for the sake of the country, if I had communicated with Zi Aiqing earlier, there would have been no misunderstanding today. As soon as the words changed, Ji Yan smiled and said: "I have long heard that Zi Aiqing's talent is peerless, and she is the best in the world. ”

Zi Baifeng smiled shyly, a little embarrassed by Ji Yan's teasing, and said, "Your Majesty said that you are laughing." ”

Ji Qi laughed, as if he didn't care about Zi Baifeng's previous offenses.

"It is said that Zi Da is a genius who learns the world, but there are countless heroes in the world, but I can't underestimate it, Zi Aiqing, do you dare to make a bet with me?" Ji Yan said with a smile.

"Bet, what bet?" Zi Baifeng asked.

"In order to commend Zi Aiqing's merits, I have prepared a big reward for Zi Aiqing, if Zi Aiqing can be at the top of this examination, I will reward you with this great reward, and at the same time reward you with a rich fief. If Zi Aiqing hadn't become a huiyuan, then there would be no fiefdom. ”

"Just to become a Huiyuan?" Zi Baifeng grinded his fists and clapped his hands, full of confidence, "Your Majesty, you have no jokes!"

"Of course, you don't have any jokes. Ji Yan said.

"That's good!" Zi Baifeng laughed, he already felt that there was no motivation for this trip to Beijing, and it didn't make sense for him to participate in any exams, even if the champion came out, he might not be able to get a real job.

He is now the Marquis of Beiwen and the governor of Zaitenzhou - although Zaitianzhou has completely become a barren land.

Even if it is the champion and the first, what is it compared to eliminating the catastrophe of the Heavenly Light Gathering Spirit Tower?

But if you add a small bet, it will be completely different from before, and there will be a motivation for him to fight with all his might.

"In that case, thank you very much. Zibai Fengdao seems to have pocketed this yuan.

Ji Yan sighed: "Zi Aiqing is really confident. ”

Zi Baifeng smiled and said nothing, his confidence did not come out of thin air.

After chatting a few more words, the monarch and the ministers were happy, and Zi Baifeng took the opportunity to find an opportunity and said to Ji Yan: "Your Majesty, Baifeng has a reluctant request." ”

"Speak. Ji Yan said.

"Bai Feng has a friend, also to give Bai Feng a head, said some big rebellious words, now I'm afraid I'm arrested, Bai Feng also wants to ask His Majesty Xià for mercy, forgive my friend's disrespectful sin, I promise that he will never say half a bad word about His Majesty in the future. ”

"Haha, it's easy. Ji Yan casually found someone to come in and gave a few orders, and after a while, Ji Yan personally wrote a handwritten edict and handed it to Zi Baifeng. For Zi Baifeng's request, Ji Yan showed great generosity.

Seeing that Zi Baifeng was leaving, Ji Yan felt that it was better to remind him.

"Zi Aiqing, this Xijing is not my Xijing, I am now the emperor, many of my imperial brother's cronies still refuse to submit, most of everyone knows the relationship between you and me, maybe some officials will be difficult for you, you still need to be careful, don't let them catch the handle. Ji Yan said.

Zi Baifeng replied and said, "Thank you for the reminder, I will pay more attention." ”

Ji Yan smiled and nodded, seemingly very happy.

After Zi Baifeng left, Ji Yan watched Zi Baifeng leave, and his smile gradually became stiff.

Of course, he didn't ask Zi Baifeng to take the exam for no reason.

First, let Zi Baifeng participate in the exam, is to find something for Zi Baifeng to do, drag him down, so that he has no time and energy to cause trouble, in another seven or eight days, the Emperor's Extreme Ascension Immortal Technique can be completed, and if it is used for another one or twenty days, it can cultivate a useful manpower. In the past 20 days, he naturally can't let Zi Baifeng wander around, and he must help him find something to do.

And more importantly, as he said, no matter at any time, the world is not monolithic, Ji Yan sat on the throne, not everyone is happy to see it, and it can even be said that a small number of ministers are dissatisfied with Ji Yan's superiority, among these people are the die-hard loyalty of the emperor, some are past sins Ji Yan, and some are old and stubborn, thinking that Ji Yan is the king's murderer, which is unreasonable.

And these most stubborn bosses are all in the Ministry of Rites.

In fact, although you are the emperor, this meeting is beyond his control and is in the hands of a group of ministers who are dissatisfied with him.

Everyone knows that Zi Baifeng is his favorite and is on his side, and putting Zi Baifeng in the test is to let him go to the mine.

As Ji Yan himself said, now that the national strength of the entire Celestial Empire is declining, it is indeed necessary to stabilize it.

But these people are all people who threaten Ji Yan's rule, Ji Yan is struggling to deal with them, and now Zi Baifeng is here, but he can make good use of it.

Of course, this is a plan to kill two birds with one stone, using Zi Baifeng to smooth the way, but he didn't realize that his heart was instinctively full of fear of Zi Baifeng, and he subconsciously delayed the conflict with Zi Baifeng.

"Lord Zi! Master Zi!" Before Zi Baifeng walked out of the palace, he heard someone calling him behind him, Zi Baifeng turned his head and saw that an official he had never seen was running over in small steps.

Zi Baifeng frowned and stopped on one side, looking at the official suspiciously, and the official said: "Xia Guan is Lang Zhong Si Qi Rui of Zhongshu Province, and His Majesty has instructed Xia Guan to be responsible for the food and living of the adults in Shangjing. ”

Zi Baifeng was stunned, this is a bit too exaggerated, and he even sent a housekeeper for himself?

This Zhongshu Provincial Langzhong, at least a five-grade official, although he doesn't seem to be a big official in Shangjing, but when he goes out of Shangjing, he can be a governor.

After looking at Master Si carefully, Zi Baifeng narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "Master Si, have we met somewhere?"

Lord Si smiled and said: "Lord Zi, don't call me Lord, I'm really ashamed, Lord Zi just call me Xiao Si, I used to be a staff member of His Majesty, and I resigned from this official uniform, but I can't take it seriously." ”

Zi Baifeng suddenly remembered that this person was seen by Ji Yan's side when Zi Baifeng saw Ji Yan for the first time, and it seemed that this person was really Ji Yan's henchman.

What did he send such a man to his side for?

The current Zi Baifeng is not the stunned Qing he was at the beginning, Ji Yan's attitude towards him is worth playing, and this time he will try to be tired, but since it is good, Zi Baifeng will naturally not back down.

"Lord Zi, these days His Majesty has summoned you to the palace, but you have always pushed it off, and many rewards have been delayed for a long time, and His Majesty has arranged a house for you in the inner city, just waiting for you to receive it. "Greater.

"This ...... No need, I have a place to live. Zibai Fengdao, he instinctively felt that he had nothing to do and was diligent, either a traitor or a thief. If you want to reward yourself, what would you have done?

Moreover, why didn't you just say it, but sent such a person to sue yourself?

Zi Baifeng naturally didn't know that the reason why Ji Yan didn't say it just now was because when he saw him, Ji Yan had great mental pressure.
