Mr. Qiu Shan didn't take part in this year's imperial examination, not because of the marriage contract that Chen Changsheng put on the table, not because of the letter from Xu Yourong at the Ivy Banquet, not because of the people's discussion, his reasons didn't include any children Emotions, just because he is going to do a big thing.
It has been several months since Qiu Shanjun has not appeared in front of the public. Even Gou Hanshi and other disciples of the Lishan Sword Sect do not know where his elder brother has gone, because that important event needs to be kept absolutely secret, and the world does not know where he went He didn't know what was going on in the world—the marriage between the north and the south, the Qiushan family and the Lishan Jianzong came to the capital with the southern mission to propose marriage to the East Imperial General's Mansion—Xu Yourong didn't know that Shengnvfeng was hiding this matter intentionally or unintentionally, He really didn't know.
Looking at the file, Chen Changsheng became more and more silent.
Qiu Shanjun went to a place called Zhouyuan.
Chen Changsheng didn't know where Zhou Garden was, so he could only guess from the narration in the file that Zhou Garden should be a small world, or a ruin, just like the palace in the Pope's Aoba World. There are also strict restrictions on the realm of entrants, and they must be below the star-gathering realm.
For some reason, Zhou Garden is very important, and it is an important place that the human world and the demons must compete for. However, apart from the previous owner, Zhou Garden has never been truly controlled by a second person.
Fortunately, after the previous owner of Zhou Garden disappeared many years ago, Zhou Garden was not closed, but opened every ten years according to the set rhythm.
Before Zhou Garden is officially opened, there will be visions between heaven and earth, and the outermost stone wall will be blurred. Bring out the key of that gate, and you can control Zhou Garden for ten years.
Of course, if both humans and demons fail to do this, Zhou Garden will be closed again, disappearing into the turbulent space that can never be explored, and quietly waiting for the arrival of the next ten years.
Zhou Garden has not been controlled by humans or demons for many years.
The last time the Zhou Garden was opened was decades ago.
This year is the re-opening period of the Zhou Garden. The five saints have been paying attention to this matter. They and the several terrifying demon kings in Xuelao City were the first to notice the vision of heaven and earth, and quickly dispatched the garden opener.
For hundreds of years, the regular opening of the Zhou Garden has not had any impact on the world structure, but the big shots who really understand the origin of the Zhou Garden and what is inside will never dare to underestimate it. If someone finds those few things in Zhou Garden, what will they bring to the world.
For these reasons, news of the opening of the Zhou Garden and its approximate location must be kept absolutely confidential, except for the five sages and the head of the Longevity Sect, only the person concerned knows.
Hundreds of millions of people living on this continent didn't know about it at all. At that time, Kyoto was still waiting for the Ivy Banquet, and Chen Changsheng was still having a headache when a new door suddenly appeared on the courtyard wall.
Since the Zhou Garden is important, the gardeners sent by the two hostile forces in the mainland are naturally extraordinary. The Demon Race sent many young and strong men, but after the five sages discussed it, they only sent one person.
That person is the first person below the Star Gathering Realm recognized by the human world and the demon realm, Mr. Qiu Shan.
The five sages did everything they could, and Mr. Qiushan did not disappoint again. He managed to find the gate of Zhou Garden before the demons, and brought out the key, ensuring that Zhou Garden would belong to humans for the next ten years.
This is the reason why Mr. Qiushan failed to participate in the Great Court Examination.

In the dossier that Xu Shiji showed Chen Changsheng, the description of Zhou Garden was naturally not so detailed, but Chen Changsheng could clearly understand the importance of Zhou Garden. It's just that he doesn't know now that the human world was able to find Zhou Yuan and retrieve the key before the demons. Apart from Qiushan Jun being too good and powerful, there is another important reason, and that reason is actually related to him.
A few months ago, a famous demon master assassinated Luoluo in the Orthodox Academy, but was stopped by Chen Changsheng. After the demon was captured alive by Xue Xingchuan, he couldn't bear the torture of Mr. Zhou Tong, so he revealed some news, and the Great Zhou Dynasty dug out the information. He found a spy organization under the command of the black robe, and at the same time found a clue about Zhou Yuan. It was precisely this clue that Mr. Qiushan followed, and finally got ahead of those people in Xuelao City.
Chen Changsheng didn't know this, and he didn't know what hardships and trials Qiu Shanjun had gone through. He could only imagine what Qiu Shanjun had done through the simple information between the lines in the dossier. The more he thought about it, the more silent he became. But the guy who has been watching from afar has a feeling of admiration.
"Give up the Great Court Examination in order to benefit the entire human race. When the news spreads across the mainland tomorrow, do you think your first place in the Great Court Examination will still have some glory in front of him?"
Xu Shiji's indifferent voice broke the silence in the room.
Chen Changsheng put the file back on the table, thinking silently, if this is the case, why is there this family dinner again.
"I never think that I am better than Mr. Qiushan, and no matter whether I am or not, I will not withdraw the engagement just because I am better than him."
He looked at Xu Shiji and Mrs. Xu and said, "I'm retiring the engagement. I really just want to resign. It's just that no one believed it at the beginning, and they still don't believe it now."
Believe it or not, things are always going to be done.
Chen Changsheng saluted Xu Shiji and his wife, then turned and walked outside.
The old marriage certificate, sealed with new paper, lay quietly on the table.
Beside the stone gate in the front garden, Shuang'er stood under the bamboo, looked at his back, and stretched out her hand to stop him and ask something, but in the end she didn't make a sound, and her hand slowly dropped.
…
…
To Chen Changsheng's shock, when he returned to the Orthodox Academy, he suddenly found that the marriage certificate was lying on the table in the library, and it returned even faster than him.
"What... what's going on?" He took the marriage letter Tang Sanshiliu handed over, feeling a little dazed.
Tang Thirty-Six said: "Shouldn't it be you who explained to us what's going on? Why did Dong Yushen General's Mansion send back the marriage certificate? Don't tell me you really want to call off the engagement?"
After a moment of silence, Chen Changsheng said, "I'm going to retire tonight."
Tang Thirty-Six was slightly surprised and asked: "Why are you retiring? Could it be that Xu Yourong is not good enough for you?"
Chen Changsheng didn't answer this question, turned around and walked out with the marriage certificate in hand.
He was going to leave the palace.
Since Dong Yu Shen Jiang's Mansion refused to dissolve the engagement, they had no choice but to trouble the Pope.
The person who dissolves the marriage must be the one who is married.
