"Could it be that even those warriors at the Dragon Transformation Banquet were specifically mentioned?"
As for which sect in the world of immortal cultivation has the most frequent contact with Dazhen, it is not Yuhuaishan which is located in Dazhen, but Qianyuan Sect which brought new citizens to Dazhen. In addition, the cultivators of Qianyuan Sect have previously mentioned several warriors with extraordinary qualifications, hoping that the Dazhen court will pay attention to them.
The national teacher Du Changsheng on the side had not spoken since the beginning. Now he felt that as a national teacher he should at least respond with a word, so he quickly stepped forward and saluted.
"Your Majesty, those warriors were not specifically mentioned by the host of the Dragon Transformation Banquet, but many practitioners of high status also talked about them. Even the immortal master who used his great magical power to lead all the guests of the Dragon Palace into a world in the book also talked about these warriors, saying that they were very special and even, maybe even comparable to Prime Minister Yin..."
At this point, Du Changsheng secretly glanced at Yin Zhaoxian. Ji Yuan had said before that he hoped that his friendship with the Yin family would not be mentioned in front of the Dazhen royal family. Under this circumstance, Du Changsheng and other knowledgeable people also unanimously decided not to mention it. The matter about the several warriors was what Ji Yuan said next to Yin Zhaoxian.
Emperor Dazhen frowned.
"I'm afraid this is an exaggeration, right? The teacher is such a person, he is recognized by the world as the reincarnation of Wenquxing, and his righteous spirit sweeps the court and the country. Even if a few warriors killed some monsters in the demon cave, they would not be able to achieve such an achievement, right?"
Now that he has heard more stories about monsters and the Taoist priests around him have become more capable, the current Emperor Yang Sheng is not as afraid of monsters as before, at least when they are far away from him.
Yin Zhaoxian smiled, thinking that the emperor was taking it for granted. He glanced at his eldest son Yin Qing, who seemed to have prepared something to say, but did not speak immediately and instead looked at his younger brother.
As expected, Yin Zhong bowed and spoke the next moment.
"Your Majesty, I am also a warrior, and I know that their achievements are by no means easy. Without the help of the military formation, it would be extremely difficult for ordinary people to fight against those powerful monsters. Not to mention the use of force, even overcoming fear is not easy. The monster killed by the heroes Zuo, Yan, and Lu is the Black Desolate Monster, which is also a leader among monsters. It has broken free from the shackles and embarked on a new path of martial arts..."
Yin Zhong paused, feeling the true energy in his body and some kind of mysterious feeling, before continuing.
"During this period of time, my stagnant martial arts have also improved significantly. When I practice martial arts, I can feel that my spirit seems to be integrated into my true energy and martial arts. I think this is certainly due to my hard work in martial arts training, but there are other factors... Your Majesty, you also..."
"His Majesty!"
Yin Zhong originally wanted to say "Your Majesty is also a military man", but before he could finish his words, Yin Qing immediately spoke, interrupting his brother with a louder voice. The latter frowned slightly, but thought that his brother must have other intentions, so he stopped talking.
Yin Qing glanced at Yin Zhong and continued.
"Your Majesty, no matter what, those warriors are our Dazhen people after all, and they are not rebels. When we fought against Zuyue, they also went to war with the righteous martial arts world to help our dynasty win the war. Just like the luck those immortals talked about, although it is illusory, it is a blessing for the country to have such loyal and brave warriors. If they can also be used by the court on weekdays, wouldn't it be wonderful?"
"Well, Lord Yin is right. Lord Zhao, you were in charge of investigating those warriors before, right? How is the progress?"
A minister with a white beard stepped out from the crowd with a slightly nervous look on his face, and answered while bowing.
"Your Majesty, the Six Gates Chief Constable Wang Ke has some connections with these heroes. I have used his connections to contact Hero Yan and Hero Lu. These two have no intention of becoming officials, nor have they accepted any rewards from the court. Hero Zuo is said to not be in Yunzhou, and..."
"And what?"
When the emperor's voice came, Lord Zhao continued to speak reluctantly.
"And I've discovered that these heroes are now extremely famous in the martial arts world, especially the hero Zuo, whom I've never met. He is very famous not only in the martial arts world, but also among the people of Dazhen."
"Oh? New citizens of our dynasty? Why is that?"
The emperor became interested, and Lord Zhao below organized his words and continued.
“Your Majesty, you don’t know that the new people of our Dazhen have been persecuted by demons for generations. They are already deeply afraid of demons. However, several knights of our Dazhen actually killed the chief demon with their martial arts in the demon cave. Now, the news has spread widely among them, making them extremely excited. Like many other knights in the martial arts world, they call Zuo Wuji… the Martial Saint.”
At this moment, Yin Qing glanced at Yin Chong, which made the latter slightly stunned. He subconsciously looked back at his brother, and then thought about it and suddenly realized that the term "Martial Saint" is very heavy. If he just said that the emperor is also a warrior, wouldn't he be much inferior to Zuo Wuji
This is Yin Qing's way of being a minister. Even though he knows that Yin Chong and the current emperor are good friends who grew up together, but now that one is the king and the other is the minister, Yin Chong must know how to walk that line. At least in public, he must always consider the king's majesty as a minister, and avoid letting the emperor have any resentment.
"Martial... Saint..."
The emperor on the dragon throne narrowed his eyes and repeated it, but Yin Qing spoke again at this time.
"Your Majesty, what Lord Zhao said is true, but he has not explained it thoroughly. I am also very concerned about this matter and would like to explain the details to Your Majesty."
"Well, Lord Yin, please go ahead and speak."
Yin Qing glanced at Lord Zhao, then spoke loudly.
"Your Majesty, Lord Zhao only knows one side of the story. I am in charge of the affairs of the new people of our dynasty and know more details. The new people of Dazhen have been persecuted by demons for a long time. Now they are freed. Their fear of demons has gradually turned into hatred and anger. They are eager to be accepted by the real human race and don't want to be treated as beasts anymore..."
Some relevant officials in the court, both civil and military, could not help but nod slightly. They could feel this whether it was from the reports of their subordinates or from their own contacts.
The emperor also nodded slightly and sighed.
"They have been kept as beasts by demons for generations. How pitiful."
"Yes, it is because your Majesty is wise and compassionate, and our officials have worked diligently under your Majesty's orders, and the people of the world have responded to your Majesty's decrees, so they have a stronger sense of belonging to Dazhen. They know that Dazhen is a place that can produce heroes like Yin Xiang and Zuo Wuji, and there are many more heroes in the country. The immortals saved them and brought them here across the sea. They have their own thoughts on the relationship between our Dazhen and them. Now their loyalty to our dynasty is rare in the world, and their desire to serve the country is extremely strong..."
Yin Qing paused, then looked up at the emperor and continued.
"Your Majesty is a great and virtuous ruler. All the people under your rule are safe and sound. There are also talented people like Yin Xiang and Zuo Wuji in the country. Their good reputation has also begun to spread among the new people, calling your Majesty a holy ruler!"
"Master Yin is right. I have indeed heard this!" "So have I. Now that the year is coming to an end, I have heard it many times with my own ears!"
The emperor was very pleased to hear what his ministers said. Yin Qing's meaning was very clear. The glory of the land of Dazhen belonged to him, the emperor.
Yin Zhaoxian also spoke loudly at this time.
"Your Majesty, this trip to the Dragon Transformation Banquet has made me realize that we, the Great Zhen, should care about all the people in the world and the destiny of the human race between heaven and earth. The real dragon has the ability to reach the sky and penetrate the earth, but it still took the risk to open up the desolate sea. Although the Great Zhen has made achievements, it still has a long way to go!"
Caring about the world
Yang Sheng was shocked. He knew he might have misunderstood the teacher's meaning, but he was still slightly excited.
"Teacher, what you said is very true. Although my Dazhen ranked among the top seats at the Dragon Transformation Banquet, they actually also saw the potential of our dynasty."
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Yin Qing glanced at Du Changsheng at this time, and the latter understood, stepped forward and spoke loudly.
"Your Majesty, the matter of destiny is by no means illusory. It is said that humanity has a great trend. However, in my humble opinion, the great trend of humanity in the past was not in the hands of the human race itself, so it can be said that it was not obvious. Now is an opportunity. The human race can grasp the great trend, and I, Dazhen, can lead the destiny of humanity!"
"What does the Imperial Master mean?"
Du Changsheng smiled.
"Your Majesty, you should establish a Confucian Temple and a Martial Temple to consolidate the fortunes of literature and martial arts, and to unite the hearts of scholars and martial artists in the world to pursue the Dao. Only the two Daos of literature and martial arts should be worshipped there, not any gods. If anyone can be worshipped there in the future, he must be recognized by heaven and earth, and secondly, be determined by the hearts of thousands of people in the world!"
"Your Majesty, this move will surely inspire the world's civil and military talents, and gather the prayers of all the people in the world. Just imagine, if in the future there are more warriors like Zuo Wuji in our dynasty, and big monsters can be killed alone, and there are many famous scholars like Yin Xiang in our dynasty, and their righteous spirit shines brightly in the world, what will the human race and humanity be like under the leadership of Dazhen?"
"If such a day really comes, then I believe that your majesty will be worthy of the title of Saint King, and this day will surely be a heavy chapter in history! Of course, this matter still needs to be discussed carefully."
Yin Zhaoxian said this solemnly, and Yang Sheng, who was already very interested, made up his mind.
"As the teacher said, this matter still needs to be discussed carefully, but the words of the national master are beneficial to the country, the people, the world and humanity. I also think it makes sense. Whether it is appropriate, let the heavenly master carefully calculate and check, and then discuss it in detail with the court and the public."
"I obey your order!"
Du Changsheng bowed and accepted the order. Anyone with a discerning eye could see what the emperor was thinking. He probably hoped that he would be able to be among the civil and military officials in the world.
