The whole place was silent, as quiet as death. All the dignitaries of the Weight Empire gathered here, including the emperor and queen who arrived secretly in the VIP room. Together they witnessed a duel with a huge disparity in strength but completely opposite results, and the battle started from the beginning to the end. , their butts were not even warmed up, this was not a duel, this was an instant kill. Li Si successfully used the soul as a cover to complete the surprise attack and instantly killed a level 6 soul fighter.
His slender and straight body, fluttering white clothes, handsome face that is almost evil, exaggerated broad sword, and his scornful aura instantly conquered everyone present. It was this battle, "Qisi" This name spread throughout Nuoyang City in one day.
Jinchengwen stood up slowly without saying a word, but there was a murderous intent in his eyes. Queen Yanci held the twin princesses in her arms to prevent them from seeing the bloody scene. She turned to look at Jinchengwen. At this time , she didn't dare to say anything, but she was inexplicably worried for Li Si in the scene.
Qi Zu was overjoyed in his heart, but his scheming face could not hide it. He showed a confident smile. He glanced at Yin Tianzhan, who had an ugly face, and whispered a few words to Qi Meng beside him. Qi Meng bowed to lead the people. Leave.
The blood on the Zhankong Sword was automatically sucked up, and a ferocious extremely thin red thread appeared on the sword, mixed with the lines on the alchemy circle. Li Si did not notice this, put away the sword gracefully, and turned to the field. Go as a layman.
Qi Zu stood up and left the stand under the protection of two other soldiers. The people on his side had won the victory, but no one dared to congratulate him. Qi Zu had already seen through it and didn't care. He had just left. When he arrived at the door of the stand, a familiar minister suddenly greeted him mysteriously. Qi Zu bowed his hands in salute and walked over. The minister whispered a few words in his ear. Qi Zu's face showed With an astonished look on his face, he asked in reply. The minister nodded, and Qi Zu immediately followed him towards the VIP room.
"Long live your Majesty, I didn't expect to alarm your Majesty, and you will be punished with death." While Qi Zu saluted, he felt something bad in his heart.
The queen and the two little princesses sat dignifiedly on the other side of the VIP room. When there were outsiders, the two sisters Jin Qing'er and Jin Mo'er were obedient. Although they were young, they already had the demeanor of imperial princesses.
Jincheng Wen laughed and said: "Ai Qing, please wake up quickly. I was also curious on a whim, so I came out of the palace to see what ability Ai Qing's nephew has to dare to challenge Yin Tianzhan's sixth-level soul fighter, haha, Is his name Qisi?"
Qi Zu responded: "Your Majesty inquired, Qisi is my distant nephew. He was living in the city of Milan due to the disaster of alien monsters in the south. Later, Wei Chen learned the news and sent someone to take him to Nuoyang. Unexpectedly, this child I don’t know how high the sky is and how high the earth is, I will definitely reprimand the humble minister when he returns home.”
Jincheng Wen waved his hands and said: "No, no, he should not be scolded as a young hero. He should be rewarded. He should be rewarded well. Qi Aiqing, now is the time for the court to employ people. It is a blessing for you to have such a nephew. I will consider it." Just hired,"
Qi Zu's heart trembled, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you are so vicious, you are robbing me of people.
"Your Majesty, Qisi is still too young. He usually neglects discipline and goes his own way. How can he be qualified to serve as an official in the court? Your Majesty, I would like to thank you on behalf of Qisi for your kindness."
Jincheng Wen smiled and said: "This is Qi Aiqing's fault. How glorious it is to serve the country. Qisi must be eighteen years old. He is an adult. Why can't he contribute to the country? Besides, if he achieves anything, Qi Aiqing will You have a glow on your face too, don’t you?”
Just as Qi Zu was about to refuse further, the door of the VIP room opened, and a guard in civilian clothes said: "Your Majesty, Qi Si will bring you here."
Jincheng Wen smiled and said: "Let him come in, how can there be so many rules? This is not in the palace,"
It was the first time Li Si saw the Emperor of Weight. He originally thought that emperors should be middle-aged uncles or grandfathers with a lot of beards. What's more, the emperor could bring down the powerful Li clan. In his imagination, He should be a wily and calculating man, but he didn't know that the emperor in front of him was only in his thirties. Because he was so pampered, he looked younger than his actual age. When Qi Zu saw him staring at the emperor intently, he shouted: "Silly boy, you haven't seen me yet." His Majesty,"
Li Si was startled and hurriedly knelt down to worship. Jin Chengwen smiled and helped him up, saying, "I told you not to be polite outside the palace."
Li Si didn't expect the emperor to be so polite, and was quite flattered. For a moment, he was nervous and didn't know what to say. He stood up stupidly, not knowing where to put his hands and feet.
Jincheng Wen smiled and said: "Qisi, I just watched the duel between you and Zhang Wu. Yes, very good. You are a soul fighter. Have you ever registered with the soul fighter guild?"
Li Si remembered that the piece of iron that Han Na had given him to prove his identity as a Soul Fighter had melted in the Ice and Fire Spring, and said, "Qisi awakened the day after tomorrow, so he didn't register."
Jincheng Wen said: "It turns out that you awakened the day after tomorrow. Well, I admire you very much. I originally wanted to make you a high official, but considering that you are still young, I decided to let you take an official position in the Ministry of City Health. Let's practice it first. What do you think? how,"
Li Si caught a glimpse of Qi Zu's old face from the corner of his eye, as if he had been hit with a shoehorn. Knowing that Jincheng Wen was poaching people, he couldn't help but laugh. This emperor was really damn fast in taking action, but let alone a city guard. Even if you transfer your throne to me, I am not interested in holding an official position in the ministry.
Li Si smiled and said: "Your Majesty is so kind to you, Qisi is flattered, but your Majesty is right. I am indeed still young now and have not thought about my official career. What's more, just because I won a duel, Your Majesty Just seal me as an official and set such a precedent. Your Majesty will not be able to deal with similar incidents in the future. Qisi just wants to have free time to practice."
Jinchengwen frowned and said, "You don't want to be an official,"
Li Sidao: "I have failed to live up to His Majesty's kindness. Qisi is terrified."
Jincheng Wen said: "Do you think my official position is too small?"
Li Si said hurriedly: "Misunderstanding, how could I not know about His Majesty's kindness? It's really because Qisi's age is the best time to practice. Moreover, my uncle is getting older, so my nephew should spend more time with me." ,"
Jincheng Wen's face changed several times, and he was about to have a fit when Queen Yan Ci suddenly said: "Your Majesty, it is rare that this child is not greedy for wealth and honor, but also has a filial heart. We should make it happen."
Jincheng Wen said: "Queen..."
Yan Ci smiled and said: "Your Majesty cherishes talents, but you don't have to let him become an official. Anyway, Your Majesty likes this child, so why not accept him as your adopted son?"
Jincheng Wen rolled his eyes a few times and saw that Yan Ci's eyes were full of meaning. He laughed and said: "Just what I want, just what I want, Qisi, I will give you the royal surname Jin. From now on, you will be my prince. You You don't have to be an official, you can stay by Qi Aiqing's side and take care of her. However, Jins, you should come to the palace more often and see more of me and my mother."
Jins, it’s a good thing your surname is not Yu, otherwise I would be like a fish.
Li Si thought for a moment and seemed to have no loss for himself. He accepted it happily and worshiped Jincheng Wen and the Queen on the spot. Jin Qing'er and Jin Mo'er were also very happy. They ran up and called "Emperor Brother" in a sweet voice, "Jin Chengwen" He took out a piece of unicorn ruby that he carried with him and gave it to Li Si as a meeting gift. Queen Yan Ci also gave him a gold ring. Li Si naturally smiled and accepted it. Although the queen's meeting gift was a bit shabby, it was better than nothing.
Li Si originally wanted to give some gifts to the lovely sisters and princesses, but when he thought that there was nothing else in his memory card except food, he decided to grab a random piece of energy that had been used up when he had time. Soul Crystal went to get some jewelry and kept it for giving away next time.
They were all in harmony, except for Qi Zu who had a fake smile on his face. He didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse for Li Si to receive such great honor, so he could only think about it in his head.
Jinchengwen didn't waste much time. After accepting the emperor's son, he returned to the palace with his family. Li Si and Qi Zugong saw them off and came out. The martial arts hall was already empty. On the way back, Qi Zu and Li Si, who had greatly increased his worth, were in the same car. , Qi Zu opened his mouth several times, but didn't know what to say. Li Si smiled and said: "Master Qi, I will keep my mission in mind, please rest assured, don't worry too much,"
Qi Zu smiled and said: "Then I'm relieved. But speaking of it, I really don't know how your Majesty could take you in as his adopted son on a whim. I don't understand."
Li Si chuckled and said, "Master Qi, what's so hard to understand? He accepted me as his adopted son. Firstly, he showed favor to me in order to win over and divide our uncle and nephew. Secondly, now I am half of the royal family." , If something happens to me in Mr. Qi’s house, will Mr. Qi be implicated?"
Qi Zu was shocked and looked at Li Si in disbelief. This young man was actually so thoughtful.
…
At the same time, Yan Ci was on another carriage and said to Jincheng Wen: "Your Majesty, if that Qi Si disobeys, we will send someone to kill him. The prince was killed in Qi Mansion. When the time comes, Qi Zu will not be able to escape responsibility. Your Majesty It’s up to you whether you want him to spend the rest of his life in prison or whether you want him to return to his hometown to retire.”
Jincheng Wen laughed loudly and said: "Queen, your plan is really brilliant. No one can plead for Qi Zu by then. However, the old man can't live for a few more years, so let's send him back to his hometown to enjoy his old age."
Yan Ci smiled and said: "Your Majesty is kind, but Qisi, oh no, it's Jins. This child is smart, not greedy for power, and has filial piety. He is very painful. It is a pity to kill him like this." Maybe he will be able to really help Your Majesty in the future. Since the fall of the Li Clan, the power of the Yuwen Clan and the Tang Clan has become stronger and stronger. Your Majesty, this kid Jins may be of use."
Jincheng Wen nodded in agreement and said: "The Queen's words make sense." He fell into deep thought. Yan Ci smiled charmingly and turned to look at the scenery outside the car window without disturbing him.
