Xing Qing followed, Nangong Mu and Yan Xiu came to seek a sword for Fang Zhengzheng.
But now, although the Holy Lord Lin Mubai did not say it clearly, he only said that this was the decision of the courtiers, but as smart as them, how could they not understand the meaning.
Disobeying the Holy Will is an act of great disloyalty.
However, after the three of them looked at each other, they could all feel the determination in each other's eyes.
Xing Qingsui stood for a long time, his face already a little pale. During the martial arts test, a sword pierced his chest. Even when he was carried to the Jinluan Hall, the injury was still affected.
However, as a person who charges on the battlefield and as a direct descendant of Zhenguo Mansion, he only knows the right and wrong of things, and of course he will not shrink back because of the possibility of violating the holy will.
Xing Qingsui didn't answer, but just took a step forward.
Yan Xiu, on the other hand, had already taken a step before Xing Qingsui took a step. As for Nangong Mu, he took a step almost at the same time as Xing Qingsui.
"emperor!"
The three of them had just started, and before they had time to say anything, Fang Zhengzheng quickly stopped in front of the three of them, turned around and smiled at them.
Fang Zhengzheng didn't know why Xing Qingsui and Nangong Mu came, but since they were here, of course he couldn't really let them have any collision with the Holy Emperor in the temple.
From beginning to end, he listened quietly. In fact, he really didn't think there was any surprise in what the courtiers said. All of this was what he had expected. What was unexpected was that His Majesty Lin Mubai actually intended to let him stay in Yanjing City.
Are you really planning to make me an official
If you are an ordinary civilian, even if you feel a little aggrieved at this time, it has almost been resolved. To get a thousand pieces of gold for offering a sword, and to be rewarded with a capital official, is indeed a great blessing.
It's a pity that Fang Zhengzheng's ambition has never been in the court.
So, this Beijing official is to him. Of course, there is nothing very attractive, and it can even be said to be dispensable.
Just when he was about to express his opinion, a fiery red figure rushed in from outside the door, and then quickly ran to the side of the Holy Lord Lin Mubai.
"Father, you are biased this time. You actually asked the two of them to go to the Royal Garden? Then who will chat with me..." A crisp voice rang out.
There were only a few people in the entire Daxia Dynasty who could rush into the Jinluan Palace without being blocked, and none of those few people were the overlords of one party. Even the sage Lin Mubai must be considered as his equal.
However, besides those people, there is another...
That is Pingyang.
The most beloved princess of the Holy Emperor, Ping Yang, had the privilege of being able to enter the palace to meet the Holy Emperor at any time. No one dared to stop her at any time and anywhere. Not even the civil and military officials dared to say a word about this rule.
Because she was the blessing of the Great Xia Dynasty, she should receive such grace.
"Haha... Pingyang is here. Of course I have to accompany my Pingyang first!" Holy Master Lin Mubai smiled slightly, looked at Pingyang in front of him who was wearing a red cloak, and motioned for Pingyang to sit next to him.
"Father, you are the best. You agreed to accompany me first? Then let's go to the Imperial Garden!" Pingyang took the hand of the Holy Master Lin Mubai. Shake gently.
"Wait a minute, my morning court is not over yet. After I finish handling the political affairs, I will accompany Pingyang to visit the Imperial Garden." The Holy Emperor Lin Mubai looked doting on his face.
"Isn't it just a broken sword? How can it be compared to the Fire Lin Spear that my father gave me?"
"Pingyang can't talk nonsense. The Holy War God Mengtian is the hero of our Great Xia Dynasty. How can his sword be called a broken sword?"
"Is that so? It's just a sword. But what's there to argue about? Whose hand the sword is in, does it belong to whom? You think...is that so?" Pingyang looked at it innocently. The Holy Lord Lin Mubai then turned around and looked at the civil and military officials of the court, with a smile on his lips.
"This..." All the civil and military officials in the dynasty looked at me one by one, and I looked at you. They all saw that Pingyang also came for the sword.
However, Pingyang and Yanxiu are different.
Yan Xiu and Xing Qing followed them, representing a force in the future of the Great Xia Dynasty. However, Pingyang was a force of its own, a force that no one dared to mess with in Yanjing City.
least…
No official in the capital was willing to have a head-on conflict with Pingyang.
Because no one can guarantee that their backyard will not suddenly catch fire, or that their house will not be suddenly demolished by strangers, or even find that their court clothes have been ripped off in the street while walking. …
It was mental torture, sometimes worse than death.
The smile on the face of Holy Master Lin Mubai remained. Of course he knew Pingyang's purpose of entering the palace. He knew it from the moment Pingyang appeared, but he would not reveal it.
So, he looked at Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping.
Of course Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping knew that at this time, perhaps only he, the chief minister of the government, could stand up. If it were anyone else, Pingyang would probably not show off his face.
"What Her Royal Highness the Princess said is true, but it refers to things that have no owner. But if the thing already has an owner, it is completely different. For example, this piece of warm jade in the hands of the old minister, this jade is made of It is a gift from the late emperor and is known to all civil and military officials in the dynasty. Even if it falls on the ground and is picked up by someone, it is still the property of the old minister. I wonder if Her Highness the Princess thinks what the old minister said is right?"
Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping smiled, took out a crystal and round piece of warm jade in his hand, looked at Pingyang with a peaceful expression and said.
In fact, his seemingly ordinary words contained an unquestionable mystery. He used the warm jade given by the late emperor as an excuse. Then, even if Pingyang continued to act nonsense, he would not be able to do it in front of all the civil and military officials of the court. Say half a word of no to this sentence.
"You..." Pingyang's little face flushed slightly. The words came to her lips, but she swallowed them down. She was just fooling around, but she didn't know etiquette.
The late emperor gave the warm jade to Yu Yiping, the left prime minister. How could she refute that this thing was not owned by Yu Yiping? This Yu Yiping used the late emperor to oppress her, which was really disgusting.
When all the civil and military officials of the dynasty heard Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping's words, they naturally understood what Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping was thinking, and Pingyang was left speechless with just one sentence.
As a minister and prime minister, he understands the Holy Heart, understands the Holy Will, eliminates the emperor's worries, and resolves the emperor's doubts. Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping can serve as the chief minister of the dynasty, and he indeed has a convincing experience.
The Holy Lord Lin Mubai smiled and nodded. He did not want to see Pingyang arguing with the courtiers.
So, leaving Pingyang speechless in the name of the late emperor is indeed the best response. In this case, this farce can end perfectly.
"What Mr. Yu said makes sense! The common people are sincerely convinced!"
Just when all the civil and military officials in the dynasty were praising Yu Yiping's wisdom, a voice suddenly rang out.
This made all the civil and military officials look over, and soon they discovered that the person who said this was none other than Fang Zhengzheng.
"Is it Fang Zhengzheng?! Is he praising Yu Xiang?"
"Looks like you're about to give in, right?"
"Submit? Mr. Li's words have some profound meaning. Is it possible that he, a common man, can really compare with the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty? Doesn't that mean that we are all living in idleness?"
The courtiers looked at Fang Zhengzheng one by one with ridicule on their faces. However, the ridicule was a mockery, but no one felt that Fang Zhengzheng had done anything wrong.
On the contrary, those who know the current affairs are heroes. It is rare for Fang Zhengzheng to be able to see clearly the situation of the court and hug the big tree of Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping in time without violating the holy will.
Prince Lin Tianrong looked at Fang Zhengzheng at this time.
Originally, he had always felt that Fang Zhengzheng was a commoner, and even if he had extraordinary qualities, he would not be able to look him in the eyes. But today, when he saw Yan Xiu, Xing Qingsu, and Nangong Mu all came to the palace to see him.
Moreover, he will soon be named a capital official.
So…
If such a person could be taken under his command, it would be of some use. The most important thing is that if Fang Zhengzheng could defect to Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping, then he would have another advantage in the fight for the ownership of the sword.
So after Prince Lin Tianrong glanced at Fang Zhengzheng, he quickly looked at Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping and nodded slightly.
Of course Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping knew what Prince Lin Tianrong was thinking. He didn't think that Fang Zhengzheng would be so easy to take under his command. However, since Fang Zhengzheng was willing to surrender, he didn't mind putting the elder first and ignoring the villain's fault.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Fang, for your praise. In this court exam, Mr. Fang defeated all the heroes. He shocked the court with twelve essay test papers. In the martial arts exam, he killed the demon vice-capital with a sword and saved Princess Pingyang and all the elites. , these are great achievements. In the future, when I am an official in Beijing, I should serve the imperial court and benefit the country!" Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping changed from his normal state, smiled, and had the air of an amiable elder in his tone. The last sentence, It also made it clear that he agreed with Fang Zheng's appointment as an official in Beijing.
Duan Wang Lin Xinjue clenched his fists when he heard this.
Of course he could tell that Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping was recruiting Fang Zhengzheng. When he thought that Fang Zhengzheng had really taken refuge in the prince, he felt a faint chill in his heart.
This made him very uncomfortable. He didn't understand why he felt this way. He was just a commoner. Even if he really held an official position in Yanjing City, he would only be in the fifth rank.
There are countless officials in Yanjing City, but the fifth-grade official positions are really not on the table.
But…
Why do I always have a bad feeling
Duan Wang Lin Xinjue was a little angry.
However, the person who was even more angry was Pingyang.
She came to help Fang Zhengzheng get the sword, but Fang Zhengzheng actually helped Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping speak, which made her not angry or resentful.
"Fang Zhengyi, this princess is here to help you!" Pingyang was extremely angry, and the princess' aura was clearly revealed.
"Thank you, Your Highness, Princess. However, I do think what Yu Xiang said is very reasonable. If something belongs to the owner, even if it is thrown on the ground, it cannot be taken or snatched away by others. For example... this sword!" Fang Zhengzheng smiled slightly.
And just when he finished speaking, a stream of light flew out of his arms, rushed into the air of Jinluan Palace at an extremely fast speed, and then...
"boom!"
There was a loud noise, and a large hole with a radius of two meters wide appeared on the ground of Jinluan Hall.
