Prince Li's words were very abrupt, and they seemed to have nothing to do with the sword in Fang Zhengzheng's hand, but Fang Zhengzheng understood them. ≌．≧
Recalling the illusion in his mind when he held the Traceless Sword for the first time in the Shengtian World, that shocking sword, and the curse that would accompany him for the rest of his life, Fang Zhengzheng suddenly felt something in his heart.
"Life is what I want, and righteousness is what I want. You cannot have both. You have to give up life for righteousness." This is a famous saying by Mencius. Fang Zhengzheng used it to describe Meng Tianqi, the holy war god. Giving up the sword for righteousness.
"Huh?" When Prince Li heard Fang Zhengzheng's words, a light suddenly flashed in his turbid eyes, and then a kind smile appeared on his wrinkled face: "I only think that the emperor has got a good sword. But I didn’t expect to find someone who knows how to use swords! Well, a man who sacrifices his life for righteousness is very good!”
When the civil and military officials heard what Prince Li said, their faces were a little confused. They really didn't understand what Prince Li and Fang Zhengyi were talking about.
Fang Zhengzheng presented the sword, but Prince Li did not comment on the sword, but just said "I see". Next, Fang Zhengzheng used another sentence of "sacrifice one's life for righteousness", and in the end, Prince Li said three good words in a row.
what is going on
A person who has been living in the palace since the late emperor ascended the throne and never asked about the affairs of the court suddenly came to the court today. This was a strange thing in the first place. Now, it is strange that the other party is inexplicably praising his integrity.
Such a scene really caused countless doubts and shocks in the hearts of the civil and military officials throughout the dynasty.
And then, something even more shocking happened. After Prince Li said these words, he actually...
gone!
Also walking with him was Chi Guyan.
Prince Li did not take the sword from Fang Zhengyi's hand. He turned and left without even taking another look. The most important thing was that he had a satisfied expression on his face.
Didn’t you say you like swords
What's going on now
And why did Chi Guyan leave? What was the purpose of her coming to the court? From beginning to end, she didn't say a word, she just stayed with Prince Li.
Like a spectator.
But. Chi Guyan was wearing the official uniform of the princess of the Great Xia Dynasty, which was very formal, and on her head was a golden roc crown. Then, she can't just be a spectator.
He was not a spectator, but he left without saying a word...
All the civil and military officials looked at me, and I looked at you, and most of them couldn't figure out the reason. Only a handful of people have light shining in their eyes, and among these few, there is naturally Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping.
"Double Dragon List, a shocking genius!" Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping narrowed his eyes slightly: "No words can influence the Holy Heart. Who will she help in this battle for power?"
Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping said no more, because he had already seen the faint look in the eyes of the Holy Master Lin Mubai, and he could understand it clearly. How could the aloof emperor not see through this
Although Prince Li's words were unclear, the meaning behind them was already obvious. If you get a sword and someone who understands swords, then it's very clear who this person is.
What's more, there is Chi Guyan's position. Although she doesn't say a word, she is standing on the court. Her stance is equally clear.
"Fang Zhengyi, you performed your sword with great merit today, and killed the demon clan's deputy capital Tong Yingshan in the imperial examination, and rescued my Princess Pingyang and dozens of elites from the Great Xia Dynasty. All the officials in the imperial court requested a reward for you, I can’t be too stingy, so today I will make you the ‘Sword Bearer’ of the Great Xia Dynasty and give you a thousand gold coins. From now on, you should hold this sword. Invigorate the power of the Great Xia Dynasty!”
The voice of the Holy Lord Lin Mubai rang at this time. Everything seemed to be as expected by Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping. The matter had already come to an end. What was unexpected was that the Holy Lord Lin Mubai gave Fang Zhengzheng the title of The official position is sword wielding.
An official position that has never been recorded in the Ministry of Personnel...
So, the meaning is somewhat intriguing.
After hearing the words of the Holy Master Lin Mubai, all the civil and military officials had different expressions on their faces. Some were jealous, some were sneering, some were envious, and some were sarcastic...
"Thank you, Your Majesty, but... can I ask a few questions?" Fang Zhengzheng did not look at the expressions on the faces of the civil and military officials. What he was most concerned about was whether he would be restricted as an official.
If the constraints are too great, can I resign
"Now that you have been named a sword bearer, you should no longer call yourself a commoner, but a minister!" There was a hint of dissatisfaction on the face of the Holy Master Lin Mubai.
"Yes, can I ask a few questions?"
"Just ask."
"What does this sword bearer do?"
"Holding this sword, you should take it as your own responsibility to boost the prestige of our Great Xia Dynasty. Your most important responsibility is to keep this sword for me." When the Holy Lord Lin Mubai said this, he paused slightly, and then thought about it. He wanted to continue: "In addition... you can freely enter and leave the palace, and enter the palace to give advice!"
When Fang Zhengzheng heard this, he probably understood in his heart.
This so-called sword wielder is actually a sword keeper. As for freely entering and exiting the palace, entering the palace to give direct advice, etc., it is probably just a cover. If he really walks around the palace with a sword every day, pointing out He might have been killed as an assassin.
However, this is also in line with Fang Zhengzheng's temperament. He doesn't have to do anything, he can still be an official, get some salary from the court, and say that he is also an official... Wait a minute, what grade is this sword wielder? I haven't figured out yet. It’s clear.
"I have one last thing to ask."
"Just ask."
"What rank is this sword wielder...?" Fang Zhengzheng actually doesn't have high expectations for the rank of this sword wielder. A sword wielder is, at best, a seventh rank official, and may not even be a rank official. The ninth grade of entering the stream.
However, when the Holy Master Lin Mubai heard Fang Zhengzheng's question, he became slightly silent.
When the civil and military officials heard this, they all looked at each other, because they all knew that this question was not as easy to answer as they imagined.
The official position of Sword Holder has never appeared in the Ministry of Personnel, which means that it is an official position that is separate from the six departments. At least, this official position will not have any impact on the political affairs of the court for the time being.
But the grade of this official position is a dilemma.
If it is set too low, then it would be disrespectful to Mengtian, the Holy God of War, but if it is set too high, it would be inappropriate given Fang Zheng's current status.
A commoner who had just passed the imperial examination and had not yet entered the imperial court, suddenly became a first- and second-rank official in the imperial court? This is obviously unlikely.
"Fourth grade!" Holy Master Lin Mubai finally gritted his teeth and said after a moment of silence.
"Fourth rank official? Thank you, Your Majesty!" Fang Zhengzheng obviously did not expect that he would become a fourth rank official in the blink of an eye, and was really surprised.
The military officials were all so shocked that they opened their mouths wide.
It's the fourth grade...
This is a real important official in the court. You must know that generally speaking, even if it is a palace, it is only an official rank of the fifth rank. If it is higher, a palace like Beimo Golden Scale City will only have an official rank of the fourth rank.
Compared with the significance of Mengtian, the Holy God of War, in the Great Xia Dynasty, the fourth-grade sword was certainly slightly lower, but for a commoner who had just passed the imperial examination.
This is obviously something that has never happened in the history of the Great Xia Dynasty.
In one step, you can log into the fourth level. This is a position that many people have spent years, or even decades, never reaching. How can we not shock them
"Congratulations to Brother Fang for being awarded the title of Swordmaster!" Xing Qingsui's face was extremely pale, but he still saluted Fang Zhengzheng at this time.
"Thank you!" Fang Zhengzheng returned the greeting.
He rarely said these two words to a person, but Xing Qingsui was able to endure serious injuries and go to the palace to ask for a sword for himself. This kind of righteousness somewhat surprised him.
Yan Xiu and Nangong Mu also came forward to congratulate him at this time.
After the other civil and military officials looked at each other, they all came forward one by one to congratulate Fang Zhengzheng.
Of course they are not people who come here to curry favor and can gain a foothold in this court. The lowest one is a fourth-grade official. However, this is etiquette. The Great Xia Dynasty respects etiquette. So, how could they not know the etiquette involved.
What's more, Fang Zhengzheng is no longer a commoner, but a fourth-rank official of the Great Xia Dynasty. The most important thing is what the Holy Lord Lin Mubai is thinking in his heart.
No one can guess.
Duan Wang Lin Xinjue's fists were clenched, his eyes flashing with cold light, while Prince Lin Tianrong's eyes also looked extremely gloomy, almost dripping with water.
As for Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping, his expression did not change much. Instead, he strode to Fang Zhengzheng's side and greatly praised Fang Zhengzheng's achievements.
This is somewhat surprising. Only those who are really familiar with Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping know that Zuo Xiang Yu Yiping treats a person like this, which can only mean that he has truly committed murder.
"Humph, what's so great, he's just a fourth-grade official..." Pingyang's little face was raised high, as if he was extremely disdainful, but there was a faint light in his eyes as clear as water...
…
The wind in Yanjing City stopped, and rays of sunshine fell on the ground through the clouds. After the rain, the wind stopped, and it seemed to be a very good weather.
only…
In the Northern Desert, far away from Yanjing City, a new heavy rain ushered in.
Cangling Mountain is the largest mountain among the Five Prefectures in the Northern Desert. It is poor and backward, but there are dozens of villages and nearly a thousand households under the Cangling Mountain.
These villagers rely on the mountains to live off the mountains, have nothing to do with the world, are hardworking and simple.
Many people have never left these villages in their lives. Their wish is to live, but for the Great Xia Dynasty, whether these villagers are alive seems to be far less important than they thought.
Groups of soldiers with bright armor came to these villages, holding bright spears in their hands, and their armor was printed with the mark representing the Great Xia Dynasty.
"Seal the mountain!"
