Chapter 35: A Feast
For the ordinary people of Changling, the most important thing in the New Year is to visit relatives and friends, especially some elders, it is even more necessary to walk around, pay New Year's greetings, and say some auspicious words.
For the magnates of Changling, the arrival of the new year means that the history books have turned a new page and have more meaning.
Emperor Yuanwu's reign has entered the twelfth year, but all the magnates in Changling are very clear that since the sixth year of his accession to the throne, the most powerful emperor in the history of the Great Qin Dynasty has rarely asked about political affairs, but has retreated and devoted himself to cultivation and asked questions.
Even though the vast majority of people were not sure of Emperor Yuanwu's true cultivation, everyone was almost certain that the Eighth Realm was not a problem for him.
Therefore, the path he pursued was the ninth realm of immortality.
In these years, almost all of the internal and external expeditions of the entire Great Qin Dynasty were handed over to the two prime ministers and the empress.
But this does not mean that he only cares about cultivation and lets it go, just like the first night of the Prison Heaven Division, he returned from the rainstorm and assassinated Zhao with a sword, which made the Changling Owner feel that he had an invisible hand controlling the entire Great Qin Dynasty in the dark, and at the same time, he also kept reminding the Owner how he became a great treasure.
Since the sixth year of his accession to the throne, although the strongest emperor in the history of the Great Qin Dynasty rarely sees his ministers, and only the two ministers and the empress can occasionally see him on weekdays, but at the beginning of the new year every year, he will first feast the ministers, and then ascend to the Tiantai on the second day to pray for blessings, and perform some patriarchal things.
The magnates knew very well in their hearts that the Holy Lord would definitely appear on these two days, and it was necessary for all the magnates, including the people of the various enemy dynasties, to see that he was still healthy and strong, or even more powerful.
Therefore, even if there was not much ancestral etiquette to follow on the first day, the atmosphere was still extremely heavy and depressing.
In the Bohol Hall, the blue-gray floor tiles exude the luster of the lake covered with aquatic plants.
The owner sat in front of the desk.
Ye Celeng sat behind the front row of cases.
Of all the chiefs, she was the only woman, so she still seemed very abrupt.
Not far from her, a fat man with a figure like an iron tower squinted his eyes, exuding an incomparably domineering aura, it was Hengshan Xu Hou who forced her to make a sword in the past.
On both sides closest to the Holy Seat, the positions of the two phases were placed, and at this time, before the two phases arrived, the empress and the future masters of the Great Qin Dynasty, several princes, had already arrived.
The queen who walked into this hall was wearing the most beautiful phoenix crown back dress of the Great Qin Dynasty at this time, and she looked dignified and beautiful. Ye Ce's cold eyelashes trembled slightly, and they didn't stay on her body for a moment, but they fell on the body of the prince Fusu behind her.
Her gaze was slightly cold.
can make her eyes slightly awe-inspired, and naturally there is a big difference.
Many powerful people saw the difference between Fusu and the previous at the same time, and felt the aura emanating from him, and several powerful people who could speak in front of the queen couldn't help but speak, and congratulated one after another: "His Royal Highness Fusu is really talented, and it is really gratifying to have stepped into the fifth realm at such an age." ”
Many officials who had not yet noticed it were taken aback.
Although you are the prince and the queen is born, you naturally have the most powerful support on the path of cultivation, and the first few realms are relatively the least time-consuming, but at Fusu's age, it is normal to enter the four realms, but to enter the fifth realm, this is not only something that can be done with the resources of a country, but also has a great relationship with his own talent and the teachings of the day after tomorrow.
An Baoshi, Jing Liuli and others may have stronger qualifications and acquired teachings than Fusu, but they did not have such strong support, so at this time, many officials even thought in their hearts that over time, the future Emperor of Great Qin may still be the strongest cultivator of Great Qin.
The queen smiled slightly, and she was naturally satisfied at this time.
However, at this moment, a palace maid behind Fusu spoke up: "His Royal Highness Fusu can understand the Sword Sutra and the classics related to cultivation at the age of three, and there is only one person in the history of my Great Qin Dynasty who is the same as His Royal Highness Fusu, and His Royal Highness Fusu will naturally be a cultivator of the Crown Changling in the future." ”
Many palace maids are very close to the queen and the prince, even if they speak on such occasions, no one will feel that it is too polite, especially the saint and the two ministers have not yet arrived, especially the several magnates speak out in front, and the atmosphere is slightly relaxed, but her words, some of the words in it, are like thunder, like the coldest sword, instantly stunned everyone, instantly stunned many people, and instantly frightened many people.
Even Ye Celeng's face was slightly pale.
Even Hengshan Xu Hou was slightly sweating in his vest.
Many people even stopped breathing at this moment, and extremely cold beads of sweat appeared on their foreheads.
The air in the entire hall seemed to be completely frozen at this moment, falling into absolute dead silence.
Everyone's eyes were in disbelief on the palace maid.
How bold and crazy do you need to be to dare to say such a rebellious thing!
At this moment, on the road of the palace outside the main hall, there was a majestic singing.
This means that the two phases and the Holy One are already not far from this temple.
With the cultivation of the Holy One... It is impossible to hear the loud words at such a distance.
Many people's complexions turned instantly white.
They looked at the beautiful palace maid and began to understand that these words containing extremely deep meanings were definitely not unintentional.
Although what this palace maid said was true, in the history of Great Qin, there was indeed only one person who could comprehend the Sword Sutra at the age of three like Fusu, but the history books about that person had all been burned before Emperor Yuanwu ascended the throne!
The most important thing is that many powerful people know... Her Royal Highness the Empress, the most honorable hostess of Great Qin, had some stories with that person before about not cleaning up and messing up.
That person understood the Sword Sutra at the age of three, and Fusu also understood the Sword Sutra at the age of three.
What kind of reverie does this evoke?
Although the words of praise and praise for Fusu on the surface fell on the ears of this nobleman, they were more vicious than any words, and they made people feel cold.
A young man with an extremely modest face trembled slightly.
He was sitting not far from Ye Ce Leng's side, and his position was extremely high, and it was Huang Zhenwei, the head of the Patriarchal Division.
At this moment, he looked at the dignified and beautiful palace maid, his face was unbearable, and he wanted to speak, but even he didn't dare to open his mouth after all.
Fusu, who was still smiling brightly after a few breaths, also clearly felt the sharp change in the atmosphere.
It's just that he doesn't understand exactly why.
Because before he could read the Sword Sutra, those history books had all been burned and rewritten, and no one dared to say that person's name before he was born.
He looked at the beautiful palace maid behind him in inexplicable shock, and then turned his head to look at his queen mother as if asking for help.
The queen's face was still flawless and dazzlingly beautiful, but her gaze grew cold.
Even Fusu saw a terrifying cold sword drawn out of the bottomless deep pool of ice, his eyes felt tingling, and his heart suddenly gave birth to an unprecedented cold fear.
Some of the officials in the back were terrified and trembled.
She slowly turned her body sideways, looked coldly at the beautiful palace maid who also seemed to be a little unclear, and said, "No matter who is standing behind you, do you think that by doing this, you can change anything?"
There was a dead silence in the Bohol Temple.
She looked at the palace maid, shook her head, and said, "Nothing can be changed. ”
The beautiful palace maid respectfully and apologetically said, "I'm sorry." ”
Then she said, in a low voice, "Just say these words." ”
didn't wait for the queen to speak again.
The beautiful palace maid smiled miserably and said, "The sinner maid deserves to die." ”
There was a "poof" sound, and she didn't see any extra movements, but a mouthful of blood gushed out of her mouth.
Fusu looked at this picture dumbfounded, and he felt that this palace maid had completely lost her life when she said those words.
Especially when he was in front of this palace maid, he saw that the blood that the palace maid spurted out before she died was about to spray on his clothes.
However, at this moment, an inexplicable force appeared in the temple.
A wave of heaven and earth vitality that suddenly poured in from the entrance of the palace enveloped the heaven and earth around the palace maid.
Time stood still.
The blood and the palace maid's body were at an absolute standstill.
And then in the next instant, blood and the body of the palace maid... All the clothes, all the flesh and blood, were destroyed by this force into countless tiny specimens of dust in a single breath.
Because the dust was too small, because the instantaneous change was too unreal, no one even felt the slightest bloody feeling at this moment.
It wasn't until all the dust disappeared and was blown into the air by the wind and earth that the lost Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi was blown into the air, and floated between heaven and earth nowhere, that the people in the temple began to be occupied by all kinds of emotions.
Ye Ce hung his head coldly, no longer looking away, only looking at the food table in front of him.
A figure wearing a dragon robe appeared at the entrance of the hall.
Behind him, there were two majestic figures whose breath was like a majestic mountain, the two phases of Great Qin.
But compared to him, it seemed to be very short, just like the steps under his feet.
The most powerful emperor in the history of the Great Qin Dynasty, and the most beloved by his subjects at the moment, had an extremely confident and powerful expression on his face, not at all like the night when he faced the empress alone.
"No courtesy. ”
Facing all the saluting magnates, he smiled slightly, as if the terrifying realm he had just shown had nothing to do with him, as if nothing had happened.
The maid, like all the things he had obliterated, never seemed to have ever appeared in this temple.
The indifference in the queen's eyes has long since completely dissipated.
A true motherly smile appeared on her perfect face.
So as in previous years, the saint sat down, and there was not much red tape to toast and start the banquet.
A feast of monarchs and ministers meeting each other and the Great Qin Dynasty moving forward steadily.
