At the same time that Yang Changjie left Beiguzhou and returned to the capital of the Great Qian, the Western Liang delegation had just arrived in the capital of the Great Qian.

Although the Xiliang delegation arrived in the imperial capital two days earlier than expected, the great cadres also received the delegation according to the process, fully demonstrating the demeanor of a great power.

Same day, late at night.

The Pope summoned the Han Qianlong, and the Hanqian Dragon quietly entered the Xuanqian Palace by taking advantage of the night.

The Holy Emperor of Daqian summoned Yan Shiyi, who sat in a palanquin in the palace and entered the palace openly.

What the Pope said to the Chill Dragon, it is unknown.

Yan Shiyi's conversation with the Holy Emperor was clearly heard by the little eunuch guarding outside the door of the imperial study.

This was the first time Yan Shiyi had seen the Holy Emperor of Daqian.

Some people say that the Holy Emperor is a benevolent man who reads poetry and books, and some people say that the Holy Emperor is a hegemon, and the reason why he does not appear often is just to plan the major event of unifying Daigo Continent.

It's just that only the cultivation world of Daqian knows that the Holy Emperor's cultivation is shocking, and he can already compete with the Pope in a single round of cultivation, and the reason why Datong has always believed that the Pope is the first person in the Daqian cultivation world is because the Holy Emperor has not really shown his strength to the cultivation world.

Yan Shiyi has always been very curious about the Holy Emperor, and he wants to know what kind of person this emperor can make Daqian, an empire that only occupies a small part of the territory of Daigo Continent, become the most powerful country in Daqian?

It's just that when Yan Shiyi saw the Holy Emperor, he was still inevitably a little disappointed, the Holy Emperor was not as wise and martial as Yan Shiyi imagined, with a waist circumference of ten feet and a height of ten feet, the Holy Emperor was not wearing a dragon robe, but just a simple green shirt, a bit of a school for many years of not being successful, the depressed old pedant asked, looking a little like Mo Jingtian's bad old man, just a little more bookish.

When Yan Shiyi walked into the imperial study, the emperor was sitting half-squatting on a seat, holding a bunch of grapes in his left hand and a piece of music in his right hand.

When Yan Shiyi was about to salute, the Holy Emperor waved his hand at him, signaling that he was not necessary, and then brought the bunch of grapes in his left hand to his mouth, ate the bottom three, and chewed carefully, but his eyes were fixed on the fold in his right hand.

Yan Shiyi could only wait aside, but his eyes looked at the environment of the imperial study.

The layout of the imperial study is simple and tidy, not at all like the study that the emperor of a continent and a powerful country should have, Yan Shiyi noticed that there were two portraits hanging on the wall of the imperial study facing the door, one of which was an old man dressed as a Confucian saint, with a delicate face and unprovoked amiability, and the other was dressed as a Taoist priest, and his face was just blocked by the dust raised, so he couldn't see it really, and there was an incense burner on the table below the portrait, and the three wisps of incense on the incense burner had burned more than half, and the smoke was filled.

A "pop" sounded suddenly.

Yan Shi came back to his senses, and when he saw it, it was the Holy Emperor who threw the fold of his right hand on the table, and there was a slight anger on his thin face.

Yan Shi asked carelessly, "Your Majesty the Holy Emperor, you are not happy!"

The Holy Emperor suddenly glared at the young man, his eyes were like lightning, and he finally had a trace of the breath of the first emperor of Daigo Continent.

Yan Shiyi was indifferent, smiling and looking at him.

The Holy Emperor smiled, the light in his eyes disappeared, and he asked in a harmonious voice, "You young man, you are not afraid of me!"

Yan Shi smiled and said: "The Holy Emperor is a human being, and I am also a human being, what is there to be afraid of!"

The Holy Emperor was stunned for a moment, and said in a trance: "It's true, these two young men are so similar, if it weren't for the difference in appearance, I would have thought that which guy came to the imperial study again." ”

Yan Shiyi asked softly, "What is the Holy Emperor talking about?"

The Holy Emperor turned to laugh and said, "You are human, and I am also a human being, so well said! Unlike those useless fellows, who call and hug each other on weekdays, and let out a lot of sycophants in their mouths, I almost get lost, thinking that I am a god-like existence." ”

"There was once a young man, like you today, who saw me as if he were an ordinary elder, and he may have had respect in his heart, but only because he felt that he was facing an old man. ”

Yan Shiyi couldn't help but ask, "Who is that person?"

The Holy Emperor didn't answer directly, but just said: "That person is about to return to the imperial capital, you can meet sooner or later, and there are some things I want to tell you in advance." ”

Yan Shi nodded and said, "Please show the Holy Emperor!"

The Holy Emperor sighed and said, "Although Daqian is the most powerful empire in Daigo Continent, it is insignificant in the Datong world!"

The Holy Emperor paused when he said this, and seeing that Yan Shiyi did not speak, he remembered the identity of this young man, and knew that he might not know much about the world of Datong, so he continued: "Datong has Jiuzhou, and my Daqian is located in Daigo Continent, and Daigo Continent is the smallest one in Datong Jiuzhou, not to mention that it is far inferior to the Middle Earth Divine Continent, and even the Beigu Continent in the extreme west is slightly inferior. ”

Yan Shiyi heard this for the first time, nodded and said, "So that's the case, if it weren't for the Holy Emperor talking about it, I wouldn't know about it." ”

The Holy Emperor said: "When the Great Dry Monks first walked out of Daigo Continent, they naturally had to feel inferior, and because of this, there were many Great Dry Monks who walked out of Daigo Continent and chose to go to the most dangerous wasteland to experience, not for anything else, just to tell the monks of other continents that my Great Dry Monk is not weaker than others!"

Yan nodded and said in a deep voice: "Heroes and heroes, be like this!"

The Holy Emperor said, "That's right. It's just that I don't know if it's the injustice of the Heavenly Dao, or some other reason, very few monks can reach the Upper Five Realms, thousands of years, there are only a handful of monks who can reach the Upper Five Realms, except for a few who have ascended, and now there are even fewer pitiful, I count one, the Pope is one, Mo Jingtian is barely counted as one, and there are only three people left in the older generation. ”

Yan Shi was stunned, he couldn't imagine that Da Qian was so unbearable, he originally thought that Da Qian was the most powerful empire in a continent no matter how he said it, and there were not a thousand monks in the upper five realms, but also hundreds, if what the Holy Emperor said was true, it was only three.

The Holy Emperor sighed: "But it's okay, the future is terrifying, just a few days ago, I had another one more!"

"Yang Changjie?" Yan Shiyi had already heard the Pope say in the Xuanqian Palace that Yang Changjie had stepped into the Moonlight Realm.

The Holy Emperor was pleased and said, "Exactly!"

Yan Shiyi said secretly: This Yang Changjie is really the first person of the younger generation in Datong world, and he really did not disappoint.

The Holy Emperor continued: "I've heard that you took Yang Changjie's fiancée as an apprentice, but is there really such a thing?"

Yan Shiyi smiled awkwardly and said, "But there is such a thing!"

The Holy Emperor said, "That's nothing. It's just that if Yang Changjie returns to the imperial capital, if he is dissatisfied with you, I hope you will try to let him do a little bit, although Yang Changjie is arrogant, he is also the hope of the Great Qian Empire. ”

Seeing that Yan Shiyi was silent, the Holy Emperor continued: "Of course, you are also the hope of the Great Qian, I have always been very optimistic about you, I sent the four great gods to attend your dean ceremony, you should know my thoughts." ”

Yan Shiyi had always felt strange, not knowing why the Holy Emperor would look at him differently, and when he heard him, he asked, "If I remember correctly, the Holy Emperor should have never heard of me before, but why does he value me so much!"

The Holy Emperor smiled: "In the past, Mo Jingtian was the face of Daqian, the Haoran Sword Master, it can be said that the limelight overshadowed the monks of the Nine Continents, and now Mo Jingtian has been unable to lift the sword in his hand because of some of his confusion, and now the Haoran Sword has been owned by you, and you are the new Haoran Sword Master, so I hope you can also be the face of Zeng Daqian's future and tell the monks of Jiuzhou that you alone can block Jiuzhou!"

Yan Shi smiled and said, "Holy Emperor, this burden is a bit heavy." ”

The Holy Emperor more or less knew the character of the young man in front of him, and he didn't blame him, he just smiled and said, "Don't be deliberate, everything will go naturally, just do your best!"

Yan Shiyi, this young man is strange, his personality is very different from ordinary people, just now if the Holy Emperor asked him to become the face of Daqian's future, he would definitely resist in his heart, now the Holy Emperor did not deliberately ask, just want him to go with the flow, but he decided in his heart that when he walked out of Daigo Continent, how could he stir up a storm in Datong World, so that Datong World knew that there was such a person as Yan Shiyi.

The Holy Emperor guessed what the young man was thinking from his eyes, and he was a little relieved that he and the Pope really didn't see the wrong person.

As for Yang Changjie's return to the imperial capital, with Yan Shiyi, two young people with similar personalities, the two stars converge, will they reflect each other, or you fight with me, that is all in the future, and I can't care so much, not to mention that Yan Shiyi is about to leave Daqian, and there is not a lot of time left for them at that time.

Yan Shi saw that the Holy Emperor had not spoken for a long time, so he asked, "Holy Emperor, it's not too early, or you will rest, and I will go back!"

The Holy Emperor slapped his forehead and said, "Look, when you're old, you almost forgot to let you come over this time, and there are more important things for you to do!"

Yan Shiyi hesitated a little, the important thing in the Holy Emperor's mouth, I believe it will not be so simple, and asked hesitantly: "I don't know what it is?"

The Holy Emperor tossed the piece of music on the table to him.

Yan Shi opened it and opened it, and most of what he said was about this peace meeting, and most of them were about Xiliang's compensation for Daqian, for example, how much gold and silver Xiliang would compensate Daqian, and how much would be offered every year...... And so on, there is only one requirement for the Great Cadres, that is, that the Great Cadres return all the Xiliang territories that they have captured over the years to the Western Liang, is it possible that the Holy Emperor is dissatisfied with this request? He is not very good at these things, so he said: "Holy Emperor, if you have something to say, just say it!"

The Holy Emperor snatched the fold, and sure enough, he pointed to the item mentioned by Xiliang above to return the lost land, and shouted: "Look, this is not angry, since this territory has been captured by my great cadres, how can Xiliang still want to go back?"

Yan Shiyi didn't speak, just stared at the Holy Emperor, wanting to hear what he wanted.

The Holy Emperor said: "The day after tomorrow, the Xiliang delegation will enter the palace, and I will arrange a competition in front of the palace, and then you will appear to face the masters of Xiliang, and if you win, the territorial matter will not be discussed;

Yan Shi knew early on that it wasn't that simple, but he had long known that he was very likely to be against the master of Shangxi Liang, so he didn't seem to be shocked, but said: "Your Majesty the Holy Emperor, you also think too highly of me, Han Qianlong, Wen Lingyun, Li Zhenzhou, no matter which one is not something I can deal with." ”

The Holy Emperor never thought that this kid actually knew so clearly about the Xiliang Council and the Mission, and said with a smile: "It seems that the Pope doesn't have a young heart for you!" and shouted, "As a Haoran Sword Master, how can you look down on yourself like this, you have to have confidence in yourself!"

Yan Shiyi knew that he couldn't hide, so he said helplessly: "It's light, it's not you who hit it anyway!"

The Holy Emperor smiled and didn't answer, but what he thought in his heart was that the Pope didn't know what was going on?

Yan Shiyi walked out of the imperial study, and when he walked outside the door, he didn't forget to look at the little eunuch twice, this little eunuch seemed to have the trust of the Holy Emperor, and all his conversations with him did not avoid him.

The Holy Emperor originally planned to order the little eunuch to arrange a sedan chair to send him back, but he refused on the grounds that he wanted to see the night in Kyoto.

As soon as Yan Shi turned out of Suzaku Street in the imperial city, he noticed that someone was following him all the time, so he stopped, who knew that the person behind him did not stop, and still walked towards him, as if he was not afraid that Yan Shi would find his traces.

Yan Shi shook his head, thinking that he was too worried, so he continued to walk.

The person in the back soon came to Yan Shiyi's side, and walked side by side with Yan Shiyi.

"Boy!" the man called.

Yan Shi looked at him, although this person was in the middle of the night, he was still wearing a suit of armor, just like a general who had just returned from a victory, not only secretly praised: brave and extraordinary.

"General, where are you going?" Yan Shiyi said with a smile.

The man had thick eyebrows and big eyes, grinned and said, "I just came to the imperial capital, and I was bored, so I came out to see the night of the imperial capital." ”

Yan Shiyi didn't expect to meet a fellow practitioner, and said with a smile: "The general is really good Yaxing!"

The man smiled: "When we meet in the middle of the night, it is fate, why don't we go together!"

"It's okay!" Yan Shi guessed that Wang Taiping should still be waiting in the back mountain for him to go back and ask questions, so as not to listen to his noise, so he readily agreed.

The two of them talked as they walked, completely unconcerned that the night was getting darker and darker.

Yan Shiyi sighed secretly, his dull life!

Compared with the general, he really has nothing to say, it's all about the life of the back mountain, at most, he introduces a few romance novels that seem good to him, or the touching story of a talented and beautiful woman.

The general is different, all he says is a fight on the battlefield, the two armies are facing each other, and the first level of the enemy general in the million army, hearing that Yan Shiyi is full of blood, and he can't wait to kill the enemy with this general.

Yan Shiyi and the general walked to the mountain gate of Haoran Academy together, and at the end of the introduction, several ancient battlefields were introduced, so that Yan Shiyi must go to pay his respects when he has time, and by the way, sharpen his martial arts cultivation, the heroic spirit of the ancient battlefield is the most suitable for martial arts to practice.

Yan Shiyi had some suspicions that this general must be a famous figure in the military family, but he was lonely and unheard, and he didn't know it.

In the end, neither of them reported their names to each other, but just said goodbye.

The general didn't leave immediately, watching Yan Shiyi's figure disappear in front of the mountain gate of Haoran Academy, he smiled and nodded, and muttered, "The boy is not bad!"
