While Da Qi's Emperor was testing his children, the ceremonial officials had already prepared everything.
On the platform on the right, Da Qi's Prime Minister Jiang Rumo stood up and said, "Please inform the Emperor that the time has come."
The few people waiting in the square started to adjust their breathing.
Da Qi's Emperor looked down at them and said to Jiang Rumo, "Prime Minister, don't be anxious. There's still one person who hasn't arrived."
He tilted his head and asked, "Where is he?"
Han Ling bowed and said softly, "The official should have arrived at the academy by now."
Da Qi's Emperor wasn't angry because of this. He had made the decision at the last minute in the Imperial Ancestral Temple, so he couldn't summon anyone now. The announcement of the decree needed time, so he couldn't rush over.
Even Han Ling couldn't go personally.
If there wasn't an official edict, Jixia Academy wouldn't even bother with him. They would even beat him up.
The Emperor turned around and said to the prime minister, "Wait a little longer."
At this point, everyone knew who the Emperor was waiting for.
Other than Zhong Xuan Zun, who had stolen the glory of his peers, who else was worthy of the Son of Heaven saying the word "wait"?
This was … a great honor!
The current Emperor of Great Qi, regardless of grace or punishment, had always given as much as he could. This was the true image of a mighty ruler.
Jiang Rumo's appearance was that of a slightly stout old man. His eyes were kind, and he looked a bit like an "old lady" (he looked a bit like an old lady).
As the current Prime Minister of Da Qi, he naturally knew the significance of the Yellow River Meeting. He also understood the Emperor's thoughts to a certain extent.
He said softly, "Yes, Your Majesty."
The people on both sides couldn't help but whisper to each other. Some were excited, some were worried, and so on.
The few people standing in the square all had different reactions.
Ji Zhaonan didn't care. He wasn't afraid of anyone below 30 years old.
Those in the Outer Building didn't care either. After all, whether Jung Genzun came out or not wouldn't affect their spots.
Only Xie Baoshu gave Jiang Wang a mocking look. Unfortunately, Jiang Wang was still meditating and didn't notice him.
Among the three competitors in the Inner Building stage, Jiang Wang had already prepared himself. Jiang Wang had already prepared for the worst. From the very beginning, he had regarded Zhong Xuan Zun as his opponent. Now that he was just a little late, there was nothing to be surprised about.
Cui Ju was still standing there, his cold face expressionless. It was hard to tell what he was thinking.
On the other hand, Lei Zhanqian's face was uncontrollably ugly.
He had already seen the Inner Building stage spot in the bag. He didn't expect this to happen so late!
Since he was standing at the front, didn't that mean that the Political Affairs Hall approved of him the most?
Why was he announcing Jung Genzun coming out now?
What was the point?
He really wanted to ask his honorable uncle, "Are you playing a monkey?"
However, he was still rational and could only try his best to maintain the calm on the surface.
At this moment, Jiang Wang's wait, there is no harm's's's's. In a battle between geniuses, there was only a fine line between the strong and the weak. Who would win and who would lose would only be known after the battle. With more choices, everyone will be convinced! "
That was right …
Hearing his cousin's voice, Lei Zhanqian calmed down. So what if he was Jung Genzun? Who was stronger and who was weaker, they would only know after they fought. He might not have been a match for Zhang Xuan in the past, but that might not be the case now.
Emperor Da Qi glanced at his son.
Of course, she knew that he was trying to appease her.
However, not only did he not blame her, he even cooperated with her with a smile, "My Da Qi is full of talented people, it's inevitable that I am dazzled by the selection. Wu Qi, you and your brothers and sisters have to help Imperial Father keep an eye on him. "
Jiang Wuqi, Jiang Wuxie, Jiang Wuyou, and Jiang Wuhua answered in unison, "Erchen obeys!"
Empress He still had a motherly smile on her face, but her phoenix eyes involuntarily flickered.
The Emperor's love for Jiang Wuqi was simply … shocking.
…
…
Among the western city gates of Linzi, the first gate from the south to the north was the Southern Head Gate, also known as the Ji Gate.
Outside the Jixia Academy was the famous Jixia Academy.
The so-called "Dragon Gate of Qi Ground" was naturally famous.
However, there were very few people who could actually enter and see what it looked like.
For lecturers, they had to at least start from the outer tower.
For students who studied, they had to have made contributions to the country to be able to enter this academy.
This was not a place that looked at talent, nor was one's family background important. It only looked at contributions.
Chung Geng Sheng used his contributions in the Battle of Qi Yang to win himself the opportunity to study. However, he was filial and benevolent, so he gave this opportunity to his cousin who was desperately trying to break through to the next realm. Alright, Chung Geng Sheng was the one who sent this message.
The messenger came with the imperial decree and stood outside the academy. He naturally did not have the right to enter.
The people in the academy verified the imperial decree, so an instructor went to deliver the message.
In a quiet and secluded place, a cool breeze blew through the bamboo forest, and a clear stream flowed on the white stones.
A few steps forward on the left bank, there was a small pavilion.
The pavilion was surrounded by benches, and a man in white was sitting on the eastern bench.
His back was leaning against a pillar, and his right hand was casually resting on the railing.
His two long legs bent and straightened, forming a perfect curve, like a bow, while his straight legs moved forward, like a spear.
He held a book in his left hand, and his head was half-tilted, his long black hair flowing freely.
Reading with the cool breeze and the sound of flowing water, there was an indescribable elegance.
The elderly instructor came from downstream. "Jung Genzun, the Emperor has an imperial decree!"
The white-robed man shifted his gaze away from the scroll and looked at the newcomer.
Dissatisfaction from being disturbed could be seen in his ink-black eyes.
However, this dissatisfaction did not make people feel offended. It only made people feel that this was his true temperament.
The elderly instructor sighed, obviously not very willing to pass on this message, but he could not go against the imperial decree. "You are required to participate in the Yellow River Conference. You are allowed to come out early."
Once the imperial decree was passed, there was no room for discussion.
Chung Geng Sheng exhaled softly, and the white breath was like a rainbow, passing through the mountains and forests.
He casually placed the book on the wooden table in the pavilion. Then, he turned around and sat down in a relatively upright posture.
This showed that he was serious.
"Do you know, sir?"
He pressed his hands on his knees, and the loose white clothes could not completely cover his muscles and bones.
The deep lines of his muscles were faintly discernible.
He looked at the elderly instructor and said in a very calm tone, "The one who sent me here was my cousin. He used his achievements on the battlefield to trap me for a year. If I need the Emperor's special decree, I can only leave this place early. To me … this is a humiliation. "
To others, a special decree before the Yellow River Conference might be a great honor.
But it was different for him.
Therefore, he turned his hands, palms facing the sky.
Two hands with distinct joints, two palms like jade, faced the sky.
Suddenly, five rays of light flew out from his body. The five rays of light passed through the pavilion, broke through the boundary of the academy, and went straight to the sky!
And in the distant sky, the stars suddenly shone brightly!
