Volume 2 Beginning to Emerge Chapter 47 Qi Xiaoqi
"It can be said that the ruling of the Emperor Hengkong is the blessing of my Suzaku Empire and the blessing of the people! The prosperity of the Suzaku Empire today is inseparable from his hard work, but the so-called Qing officials are difficult to judge family affairs, and the Emperor Hengkong I is famous, makes great efforts, and seeks happiness for the sake of the common people in the world, but he has given birth to a few princes who are not successful......
"Shh......h Be careful what you say, don't talk nonsense, it's going to cost your head!"
As soon as the person who spoke before was reminded by others, his face changed, and he lowered his head and stopped talking, as if he had touched a forbidden thing!
Accra heard it clearly, and secretly wrote it down in his heart. Seeing that the two of them were no longer talking, they turned around and looked at each other and said, "May I ask the two brothers, I don't know where to register for this Royal Academy admission?"
The two of them listened to Accra's words, turned around and glanced at Accra, and saw that Accra's clothes were mediocre, and there were no bright spots! A body of cultivation was only at the fourth level of spiritual entry, and his eyes suddenly showed a look of disdain, and he said in his heart: "Even if you are a fourth-level scumbag cultivator, you also want to participate in the entrance examination of the Royal Academy?" But seeing that Accra's attitude in his words was quite friendly, one of them spoke patiently and said first: "If you sign up, you only need to go to the gate of the academy to register!"
Another person said: "Brother, depending on your age, you are no more than fifteen years old, and your cultivation is also the fourth level of spiritual entry, and this kind of cultivation is considered to be above the average level among ordinary people, but the entrance exam of the Royal Academy is not easy! I advise the little brother that it is better not to go! Otherwise, when the time comes, it will not have a good impact on the way of cultivation in the future!"
Accra smiled, noncommittal, and said, "The two brothers must be from the Vermilion Bird Empire!"
"That's nature!" said the two in unison.
"I've just come to the Imperial City of the Vermilion Bird Empire, and I don't know much about the situation here, so I'm just asking out of curiosity! I want to ask you about someone!" Accra said patiently, calmly, and after finishing speaking, he walked over to the two of them, found a stool and sat down, and beckoned Xiao Er to bring another plate of beef and a few catties of good wine.
Seeing that Accra was so sensible, and that he was making a move with good wine and meat, the two of them were in a good mood, and one of them said: "Brother has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it! There are no people and things in this Vermilion Bird Empire that my brothers and sisters don't know. ”
After Xiao Er served the wine and beef, Accra poured a glass of wine for the two of them and said, "Can the two brothers know about Su Xuemei?"
After listening to Accra's speech, the two were startled at first, and then looked at each other and said with a smile: "Haha! Brother, you are asking the right person!"
One of them took a sip of wine, cleared his throat, and said, "Su Xuemei is the princess of His Majesty Hengkong today!"
"What!" Accra was taken aback, he didn't expect Su Xuemei to be a princess, he had already guessed that Su Xuemei's identity must be extraordinary, guessing that it might be a member of a big family, but he didn't expect that Su Xuemei would be the princess of the Vermilion Bird Empire at all.
Seeing that Accra was shocked by his words, the man was proud in his heart, and then said: "There are a total of twenty-one princes of the Emperor of the Horizontal Sky, but there is only one daughter, and that is Su Xuemei! The Emperor of the Horizontal Sky is extremely fond of this woman, and she can almost say that she loves her to the sky! Now Su Xuemei is already a second-year student of the Royal Academy, and her cultivation has also entered the middle and late stages of the True Spirit Realm. The year before last, she relied on her own strength to pass the layers of assessment of the Royal Academy, and was finally admitted to the Royal Academy and became the outer disciple of the Academy, and now it is estimated that she should have the ability to become an inner disciple!"
Another person added: "Although this woman is a princess of a country, she has never been pampered, she has a bodhisattva heart, she is full of benevolence to people and things, and she has a wide range ......of people, and everyone in the Suzaku Empire knows and respects everyone!"
Seeing that he didn't continue, the other person snorted and said, "What are you afraid of, you don't dare to say it, I'll say it! This is not a secret in the Suzaku Empire!" He continued: "The other princes are deceitful and deceitful, fighting in secret, killing each other, and using all kinds of means to entrap people for their use. And the Emperor Hengkong is very benevolent, although he secretly reprimands and educates, and the princes have restrained themselves on the surface, but secretly they still use all kinds of means to fight for power and profit! Among them, the most powerful are the current crown prince Liao Mingfeng, the third prince Liao Mingqi, and the sixteenth prince Liao Mingliu!"
Accra was puzzled and said, "Why is the princess's surname Su, but the second prince's surname is Liao?"
"That's because Her Royal Highness the princess has her mother's surname, not the surname of the Emperor of the Crossing Sky!"
"Why?
"I don't know exactly why. However, it is said that it is because the Emperor Hengkong loves Her Royal Highness's mother very much, but the sky does not follow people's wishes, Her Royal Highness the Princess's mother died young, and the Emperor Hengkong took his beloved daughter with her surname in order to remember her, so there is such a situation!"
Listening to the two of them, Accra instantly understood, whether it was true or not, but he already had a preliminary understanding of the royal family of the Suzaku Empire. Next, Accra asked about other matters of the Suzaku Empire, and the two of them spat and spoke, and only after the two of them had drunk about the same amount of wine did Accra get up and say goodbye!
Knowing Su Xuemei's situation, he was not in a hurry to find Su Xuemei to repay his kindness, thinking: "Since you are in the Royal Academy, then I will go to the Royal Academy!"
After finding an inn at random, Accra began to meditate and cultivate, and now he can meditate and practice almost whenever he has time, with Noxus to help protect the Dharma, Accra doesn't have to be disturbed by others, he can enter the meditation world with peace of mind!
The next day, after noon, Accra went in the direction of the Suzaku Royal Academy as the two of them pointed out yesterday, and when he came to the gate of the academy, Accra was extremely shocked, because it was already crowded with people, and the queue for registration was full!
Accra was speechless, and said in his heart: "Could it be that the Royal Academy is really so attractive?
In the account of the two yesterday, Accra knew that the Royal Academy only admitted a thousand disciples every year, and among the 1,000 outer disciples, less than one-tenth could become inner disciples, and less than one percent could become core disciples.
The academy is divided into inner and outer disciples, and the outer disciples are usually ordinary in talent and average in cultivation, and the resources obtained are not enough for the inner disciples, so the achievements after graduation are generally not included in the inner disciples. The core disciples are all geniuses who are the key training objects of the Royal Academy, and they will also be the mainstay of the empire in the future.
In addition to the inner disciples, outer disciples, and core disciples, the academy also recruits many miscellaneous disciples every year. Miscellaneous disciples are those who can barely pass the lowest level assessment of the academy, whose talent is below average, and whose cultivation is average. Although the miscellaneous disciples don't sound very good, they are not really students of the academy. But in order to be able to enter the Royal Academy, how many people still want to squeeze into it, and only by entering the Royal Academy can there be hope.
Because from low to high, miscellaneous disciples, outer disciples, inner disciples, and core disciples can all be promoted with an assessment, as long as they work hard enough, then they can be promoted upward by challenging or completing the academy assessment, and in the history of the Royal Academy, there have also been cases where miscellaneous disciples finally relied on their own efforts to be promoted to inner disciples before graduation.
Seeing so many people, Accra was speechless for a while, and he was in no hurry to sign up and wander around......
While he was leisurely walking in Accra, a little boy with tattered clothes, short stature and a dark face attracted Accra's attention, and when he saw him, he remembered himself a few years ago when he was a little beggar, and his heart was touched and slowly walked towards him.
He was clapping the queue in the crowd at this time, standing on tiptoe from time to time, looking around at the crowd in front of him with a small head, perhaps it was his turn to sign up soon, so he was slightly excited, and a pair of small hands were trembling.
Before Accra could get closer, suddenly the little boy was kicked and flew away, and after rolling out four or five meters away, he fell to the ground on his knees, and a mouthful of blood flowed out of his mouth. But I heard a voice coming: "Hmph, I don't know whether I am alive or dead, and I want to enter the Royal Academy even if I am at the fourth level of the spirit!" After speaking, he turned around and said, "Young Master, please!"
Just now, Accra's eyes stayed on the little boy, he witnessed the whole process, and when he heard the man who kicked the little boy fly, he turned his gaze, and saw that the little boy was kicked away by a fat face, full of meat, and a burly figure. Behind him was a thin man, about thirteen or fourteen years old, with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks, and he was extremely ugly!
Accra's eyes froze, and there was murderous intent in his eyes that was difficult to hide. He stepped forward to the little boy, squatted down to help him up, and said, "Is there any problem?"
The little boy shook his head and said, "No...... It's all right!" he stammered, and although he said it was fine, the look of pain on his face was still caught in Accra's eyes, and it was obvious that he had been slightly injured by the kick he had just taken without any defense. Accra gritted his teeth and turned to seek justice.
At this time, an old man had come to the place where the little boy was standing at some point, and said: "Fights and brawls are prohibited at the entrance of the academy, and the punishment will be severe, and the qualification to participate in the academy assessment will be cancelled at the worst. Who was fighting just now, stand up!" The majesty of the voice was unquestionable.
The little boy was stunned, a little panicked, and didn't know what to do, but his footsteps subconsciously moved forward.
The fat-faced man was also taken aback, but then calmed down, stepped forward to the old man, stuffed a bag containing items to the old man, put on a pig brother face and said, "Misunderstanding, this is all a misunderstanding!"
After the old man took the bag, he quietly put it away, and said in a different tone: "I read that you are a first-time offender, and this time you will not be investigated, and there will be a heavy punishment next time, do you hear?"
The fat-faced man greeted him with a smile and nodded his head again and again: "Yes, yes, yes! There will be no next time!"
Accra's face had completely darkened, and the old man's shameless behavior had made him extremely disdainful. At the gate of the largest Royal Academy in the Suzaku Empire, such a thing was encountered, not upholding justice, but it was in the interests of the people. He is not an eventful person, but such an act has touched his bottom line, and he is not easy to get angry at the moment, but he has secretly kept the two in his heart.
He glanced at the fat-faced man and the sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked man behind him, and helped the little boy forward to his original position to continue the line. There was an old man present, although the fat-faced man gritted his teeth and stared fiercely at the two of Accra, but he didn't say anything anymore!
The little boy successfully registered, smiled slightly, relaxed his expression, turned to Accra and said, "Thank you!"
Accra smiled: "You're welcome, what's your name?"
"My name is Qi Xiaoqi!"
