The sound of the three sages swept across the world like rolling thunder, waking up every scholar. On the contrary, those who were illiterate were still sleeping soundly and did not hear any sound.
In the capital of Gu Kingdom, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, Zhou Huanyu, sat in his study room and looked out of the window.
"Sages are not pleased by external gains and are not saddened by personal gains. As an official, the higher you are in the court, the more you worry about the people; the further you are in the Jianghu, the more you worry about the emperor. Benevolent people worry about the world first and enjoy the world later. I … as an official, I am neither virtuous nor benevolent. How can I see the bright moon in Dongting? Forget it, I don't want to be the Old Man of the Ministry of Rites. Let me deal with Gu Kingdom! "
After Zhou Huanyu finished, he wrote a resignation letter and ordered the servants to send his official robes and other items to the cabinet.
"Master, what are you doing?" Mrs. Zhou, who heard the news, hurriedly asked.
"I am resigning to have fun!"
After Zhou Huanyu finished, he smiled calmly and walked towards the bedroom. With every step he took, the Qi of Heaven and Earth around him shook.
When he reached the door of the bedroom, he was suddenly surrounded by a clear air and his clothes were fluttering.
Mrs. Zhou was stunned. She did not expect her husband to be promoted to Grand Secretary.
Zhou Huanyu laughed and entered the bedroom.
North of Jingguo, North Guard Fortress.
The north wind was strong and autumn was at its strongest.
Outside the fortress in the north of Jingguo, there was an air of death and a foul smell. The barbarian camps were endless and had already formed a city.
The originally green field had turned into a black land.
The barbarians had been besieging the city for many years and had not been able to take it down until now. It was all because of the East Sea Dragon Palace's Water Tribe that helped Jingguo.
There were seven such fortresses in the north of Jingguo. They were like seven insurmountable mountains that were firmly nailed to the land between Jingguo and the grassland barbarians. They prevented the grassland barbarians from invading Jingguo.
It was the Mid-Autumn Festival and midnight, but there was still the sound of killing.
The barbarians outside the fortress were like weeds. They were killed in batches and batches as if there was no end. If it was not for the Water Tribe soldiers, the fortress would have been breached two years ago.
Below the city, the priests of the Brute Race released yao arts. The normal Brute Race used their strong bodies to attack the city.
On the city wall, the human side first used the powerful city defense mechanism and the yao arts of the Water Race to attack. Once the barbarians got close, the scholars would start to use battle poems.
Rows of fully-armed ordinary soldiers stood in front of these scholars. These soldiers rarely went into battle. That's because once they did, it meant that the barbarians had reached the top of the city wall.
The purpose of their existence was to use their bodies to block the barbarians and protect the scholars.
On the city wall, Zhang Poyue was sitting on a tiger skin chair with his official seal in hand. His head was slightly lowered and he was snoring lightly.
Zhang Poyue was wearing a sea-iron armor made from Dragons mixed with divine materials. There were scratches all over the armor.
Only demon monarchs could leave marks on it.
The two Grand Scholars beside Zhang Poyue stared intently at the surroundings.
Hearing Zhang Poyue's snoring, one of the Grand Scholars said while being alert, "Sigh, General Poyue didn't sleep for seven days and seven nights. After knowing that Fang Xusheng is Zhang Longxiang, he was finally relieved and couldn't take it anymore. Let him sleep for a while. There's no rush. When he wakes up, we'll tell him about the flood dragon. "
"After so many years, General Poyue hasn't changed. In order to boost morale and wear down the barbarians' fighting spirit, he is on the city wall every day. If he is talented, he will join the battle. If he is not, he will sit down and command. Every time he scolds the barbarians, the morale of the soldiers will be boosted. "
"Sigh, in the past seven days, the barbarians have gone crazy and attacked the city without hesitation. However, General Poyue didn't ask for help from the imperial court. He gritted his teeth and didn't even let the Water Race send the news back to the Dragon Palace. "
"After today, they will be able to send the news back."
"Oh? Why? "
"I have been thinking about it for the past few days. Although General Poyue didn't mention anything, I still managed to figure something out. The Yueyang Literary Gathering is so grand that the barbarians will definitely know about it. They will definitely want to influence Fang Xusheng. Then, if they can break into Wei Bei City and capture General Poyue alive, it will be a fatal blow to Fang Xusheng. Therefore, the barbarians suddenly attacked at all costs. "
"I see! It seems like General Poyue already knew the reason. That's why he suppressed the document and didn't allow it to be reported. He was afraid that Fang Xusheng would know about it and affect the Mid-Autumn Festival Gathering. "
"Sigh … Thinking about this, my eyes get hot. The two of them were thousands of miles apart and didn't speak a word, but they still treated each other with sincerity. They are really role models for our generation."
"That's true. Ever since he found out that Fang Xusheng became a Grand Scholar, General Poyue's mood has been very good. He has been using Fang Xusheng to cheer us up. He said that he had an agreement with Fang Xusheng. As long as Wei Bei City is in danger, Fang Xusheng will definitely come. Who doesn't know how powerful Fang Xusheng is? Therefore, as long as he talks about this matter, the effect of boosting morale is better than him scolding the barbarians. "
"I'll send you a message secretly. Listen to it for now. General Poyue said this to give us hope. After all, Fang Xusheng's personal arrival is better than the king's personal arrival. In my opinion, Fang Xusheng will take action, but he won't come to Wei Bei City. He will come to the capital! Whether it's Ning An City or Jadesun Pass, Fang Xusheng won't appear. He will only take action when the barbarian army surrounds the capital. "
"Sigh … I understand the logic. Fang Xu Sheng is the most important person in the country and cannot be risked. However, deep down in my heart, I hope that he can come. Even if it's just to see Wei Beicheng from afar, it would be good."
"That's right. However, to the human race, Fang Xusheng is more important than the entire Jingguo! Especially since Zhang Longxiang and Fang Xusheng are the same person. His status is higher. "
"Since his status is higher, why don't the other Saints appear when the flood dragon saint is about to take action?"
"Apart from the East Sea Dragon Palace, the other three Sea Dragon Palaces are waiting for the human race's Half-saint to take action!"
"Ah? Why? "
"The West Sea Dragon Palace has long wanted to change the agreement between the two races! This time, if the Half-saint interferes and the flood dragon saint retreats, it's fine. However, if the flood dragon saint doesn't retreat and the two sides really fight, the West Sea Dragon Palace will have an excuse to tear up the agreement and make a new one. After all, the human race no longer has a Kong Saint. "
"I see. The Zong and Lei families and Qing Jun are really vicious. They knew that the Saints wouldn't interfere, so they asked the flood dragon saint to take action. I think that Fang Xusheng won't be able to escape this time. "
Suddenly, Zhang Poyue opened his eyes and looked up at the sky.
Then, everyone in Wei Bei City heard the three voices of the Sage.
Zhang Poyue was stunned. He held his official seal and laughed loudly.
"Hahaha … As expected of Fang Yun! If the world isn't peaceful, Xusheng will settle it! "
At the same time, in Baling City of Xiang State, nine huge bronze cauldrons silently broke through space and descended.
The Great Xia's Nine Cauldrons.
The moment the nine cauldrons appeared, countless people exclaimed.
"Oh my god! The nation's treasures, the divine items of the country, have not appeared for many years! "
"So the legend of the Great Xia's Nine Cauldrons is actually true!"
"When Qin Shihuang unified the six states and Liu Bang established the country, the Great Xia's Nine Cauldrons appeared and guarded the eight directions. The last cauldron disappeared in the sky above the capital. This matter has always been controversial. Some say that after the Han Dynasty, to deny the legitimacy of the Han Dynasty, all the books that recorded this matter were destroyed. Who would have thought that the Nine Cauldrons would appear again! "
