The sedan chair landed on a platform, and Chen Ziqi looked up, feeling in a trance that he was in a fairyland.
Yushan is foggy, surrounded by mountains, and countless exquisite pavilions and pavilions are looming. The sky light leaked out from the clouds, coating the scattered roof ridges and treasure roofs with a layer of golden yellow.
The flat land under his feet, with a radius of ten feet, is paved with white marble of excellent quality, and looks like a full moon. There are no redundant carvings, only the big word "Qitai" is engraved in the center.
One end is a steep cliff, and the other end is connected to a curved bridge built according to the mountain.
Crossing the curved bridge, the eyes are suddenly bright. At the head of the bridge stands a magnificent archway, with a letter: Once Nongyu returned to the cloud, Jinyu slanted to the twelfth floor.
Behind the archway is a vast flat land with lush bamboo planted on both sides. There were many people in brown bunts, carrying all kinds of boxes and cages.
Chen Ziqi curiously looked at the red sandalwood boxes, camphor wood boxes, and silk and satin jade screens. Besides these boxes, there were actually several soft sedan chairs.
"The new master has not yet invited heroes from all walks of life, but some sects are impatient and sent congratulations first." Lan Qinghan explained lightly and led them to the main hall.
Emperor Tiande was a little unhappy, and the ceremonial official on the side immediately understood and asked, "Why do visitors from other sects come here in a sedan chair?" But the dignified ninth-five prince had to walk over by himself.
Lan Qinghan glanced at the soft sedan chair covered with the gauze curtain, revealing a slightly mocking smile. With a wave of his wide sleeves, the palm wind brought up the corner of the gauze curtain, revealing the men and women with light clothes inside. "This is a beauty given to the palace lord by the major sects, and it can also be regarded as a congratulatory gift. If Lord Sili sits in this soft sedan chair and asks someone to carry it to the warehouse, I'm afraid it would be inappropriate, right?"
The ritual official blushed immediately: "This... is that the lower official is ignorant."
Chen Ziqi looked at the pink soft sedan chairs, and felt a little uncomfortable for no reason. He thought that it might be the evil thing, and regretted that he didn't drink a few more Junshan silver leaf tea in the car.
The main hall of Guiyun Palace is more than ten feet high, and the whole hall is covered with azure-colored carpets. The principal and deputy owners of the twelfth floor of Jinling are both in the hall at this moment, standing on both sides. Lan Shanyu was standing at the front of the left, secretly winking at Chen Ziqi.
Lan Qinghan brought a few people in, and the twenty-four landlords all bowed and saluted.
Emperor Tiande raised his chin slightly, waiting for the people on the high platform to stand up and salute. The ceremonial officer was a little nervous, and shouted loudly: "The emperor is coming—"
After a few breaths, there was no movement on the high platform. The ritual official stood there awkwardly, sweat beads dripping down his chin and dripping on the upper of the shoe, making a clear "click" sound.
Chen Ziqi's gaze passed over the landlords and looked up at the people on the throne. For a moment, I only felt that the light of the entire hall was gathered by him.
Is that... Dan Yi? The face is still the same face, but it feels so unfamiliar.
If Dan Yi a few years ago was as clear as the bright moon, now Dan Yi is as scorching as the scorching sun.
The bright-colored wide-sleeved clothes were tied by a black girdle. The hem of the clothes fell to the ground and spread out on the layers of azure-colored steps, like a fiery fire flowing down from a rocky mountain, dangerous and demonic.
Those beautiful phoenix-tailed eyes are no longer as clear and calm as they were when they were young. If they are like a dragon diving into the abyss, they will gather thousands of bloodthirsty slaughter under the secluded pool.
"Guests are coming from afar, please take your seat." The pale thin lips parted lightly, and the gorgeous tone was as moving as Kunshan jade broken.
Chen Ziqi was a little stunned. Two years ago, Dan Yi was still in the period of changing his voice, and his speech was hoarse and rough, and he was often mocked by him. Now the voice was so good that he didn't dare to recognize it.
A waiter brought two seats and placed them on the high platform, Lan Qinghan raised his hand slightly, signaling the emperor and Chen Ziqi to go up.
"Bold, how dare you not stand up and salute when you see the emperor?" The ceremonial officer felt the anger of the emperor around him, and gritted his teeth and scolded.
"In this Guiyun Palace, no one dares to call me to salute." Dan Yi supported his lower jaw with one hand, and the momentum of his body rose in vain.
A drop of cold sweat appeared on the forehead of Emperor Tiande, and he stepped forward with a pretense of calmness, walked up to the high platform, and sat down on the chair. Chen Ziqi followed suit and sat aside.
"I came here in person to crown the new King Feng, is this how the Guiyun Palace treats me?" Emperor Tiande's expression was very ugly.
"The ancestors of the Chen family and the ancestors of the Dan family had an agreement that people should follow the rules wherever they are. This seat in the imperial city will naturally respect your royal style. Now that you are here, you have to follow the Guiyun Palace. The etiquette is here." Dan Yi said in a cold tone, never looking at Chen Ziqi from the beginning to the end.
Lan Qinghan stepped onto the stage and stood on the left side of the throne.
On the right side of the throne, there is also a person standing, wearing a black narrow-sleeved strong suit, with a pair of silver wristbands inlaid with obsidian on his wrists, tall and impressive. A pair of eagle eyes were very sharp, staring directly at the ritual official behind Emperor Tiande.
The ceremonial official who finally climbed to the high platform with shaking legs felt like he was a live prey, and the next moment he would be torn to shreds by the man in black, and he was so scared that he almost fainted.
"Plus... the coronation ceremony should be held on an auspicious day. After the minister has counted it, tomorrow will be an auspicious day."
Dan Yi glanced at the ceremonial officer, raised his hand slightly, and the landlords of the 12th floor of Jinling saluted: "This subordinate retire!" Twenty-three people filed out, but Lan Shanyu stayed behind.
A maid stepped forward and quickly placed a small table in front of each of them. Lan Shanyu personally made tea and filled it for the three sitting.
"Go down first." Emperor Tiande looked at the posture and signaled the ceremonial officer behind him to step back first.
The ceremonial official breathed a sigh of relief, followed the maid and quickly left the hall, and the hall suddenly became quiet.
Holding the white jade cup, Dan Yi took a sip of tea: "Don't be in a hurry for the matter of conferring a king. His Majesty has just ascended the throne, and he came here in a hurry, presumably not just for the coronation, right?"
I originally planned to take it slow, but I didn't expect Dan Yi to be so straight to the point. Emperor Tiande pondered for a moment and said: "I have just ascended the throne, and I am busy with everything, so I cannot meet the National Teacher alone. This time, I want to take the new National Teacher back by the way. "
Chen Ziqi looked at Emperor Tiande with a straight back, and admired him a little. Under such circumstances, he could maintain such a strong tone. He had to say that he was indeed very majestic.
"Heh," Dan Yi snorted lightly, "Your Chen family has not respected oracles for so many years, what's the use of having a national teacher?"
Emperor Tiande was choked for a moment. Previously, he thought that the position of the national teacher was unnecessary. After he ascended the throne, he realized how important miracles are to the current royal family. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but ask a question that had troubled him since he was a child: "Do the gods on Zhang Huatai really exist?"
He didn't believe it before, but after ascending the throne, he saw that those aristocratic families whose imperial power was difficult to balance still retained the fear of gods, which made him doubtful.
Dan Yi lowered her eyes and ignored him.
Emperor Tiande gritted his teeth: "Dan Yi, don't go too far!" The masters he brought were all blocked at the foot of the mountain. Due to the situation, he could endure Dan Yi's rudeness, but he treated him like nothing. The behavior is really unbearable!
"His Majesty asked a question of the name of Tianzi. If you want the answer, you can exchange it with the wooden plaque that Guiyun Palace gave you back then." Lan Shanyu answered with a smile.
Chen Ziqi's heart skipped a beat, and he turned to look at Emperor Tiande. He shouldn't sacrifice such a precious thing in exchange for such an ethereal question, right
However, under the impulse, Emperor Tiande actually took out the wooden sign in his sleeve and slapped it on the tea table with a slap.
Lan Shanyu stepped forward and picked up the wooden sign to examine it. The cloud pattern and the word "Tian" on the back are as clear as before, which is true. He put away the wooden sign with a smile, and nodded to the white cloud envoy: "Tianzi asked, 'Does the gods on Zhanghua stage exist'."
Lan Qinghan said slowly: "Yes, the gods have always been there. The Chen family has not been able to practice the dragon chanting magic art for several generations, all because they offended the gods."
Emperor Tiande's hand holding the tea cup trembled, and the tea splashed out, soaking his sleeves, "How could it be possible..." Having said that, he already believed it.
Guiyun Palace's Tianzihao asked, there will never be a fake.
"Actually, when I used to be a national teacher, I often said that the late emperor didn't listen, and the new emperor didn't believe it." Lan Qinghan said slightly mockingly.
If you don't listen to the advice that you don't need money on weekdays, you have to spend a day to ask for a card before you believe it.
Emperor Tiande was a little flustered, and only then did he understand why the royal family could endure that every generation of national teachers obeyed the Guiyun Palace, because such a national teacher was just a card of heaven asking for no money, and many questions could be answered directly for free.
"Royal father is confused, I know it's hard to make up for it, I would like to ask Mr. Lan to forgive me," Emperor Tiande stood up, bowed his hands to Lan Qinghan, then turned to look at Dan Yi, "I also ask the palace lord to disregard the past and give it to me again. A national teacher, I will definitely treat him with the courtesy of a gentleman." After speaking, Chen Ziqi winked at Chen Ziqi.
Chen Ziqi stood up reluctantly, being controlled by others, he had to do the errand well, and he said with a light cough: "As the saying goes, a country can't be without a teacher for a day, what conditions does Guiyun Palace have, you give me a charter."
Dan Yi took a deep look at Chen Ziqi: "Back then, when you hired Lan Jiangxue, it was your father who exchanged five cities. Now, what are you going to exchange with this seat?"
Five cities... Emperor Tiande's face became ugly. Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer cities that the royal family can use to seal up. To ask him to take out five cities in one go is like gouging out the flesh on the tip of his heart. Taking a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and said hoarsely, "What do you want?"
Dan Yi raised a slender white finger and slowly pointed at Chen Ziqi, "I want him."
