"Do your best, obey fate, and hope that things in the Imperial City can really be resolved."
Yang Ji looked up at the top of the hall, thoughts flashing through his mind.
Although he said it indifferently, how could he not care at all and be nervous in his heart. For this Wu Jieyuan, he had put in a lot of effort and almost lost his life in the ring. Now that someone just said otherwise, how could he feel in his heart?
Not surprised, not annoyed.
"It's mine, it's mine. I won't give up easily."
Yang Ji secretly thought in his heart.
…
Not to mention the changes in Taiyuan City, there was already an earthquake in the Imperial City. Wang Tai's lawsuit against Prince Taiyuan in the Imperial City caused a shock far beyond imagination.
And with the joining of Prince Jiuding, as well as the joining of other nobles and military dignitaries, things became more and more intense, almost turning into a huge political storm in the Imperial City.
Prince Taiyuan was the actual ruler of the eastern seaboard. With his status, it would have been very easy for him to veto the status of a military examiner. And the reasons were quite sufficient.
At the beginning of this matter, many people thought that the old general was making trouble unreasonably. After all, many people knew that Wang Tai had recommended Yang Ji, a student, to everyone in the imperial capital.
There is nothing wrong with a teacher looking for a way out for his students. In the eyes of everyone, this is what Wang Tai did.
However, when Wang Tai announced that Prince Taiyuan's son-in-law and Yang Ji were mortal enemies, the so-called clan split also started. Prince Taiyuan used official weapons for personal use, and the man named Yang Ji had bad morals. In fact, he just wanted to help his son-in-law.
, this kind of thing is completely different.
Prince Taiyuan, who was far away in the east, was brought to the forefront.
In particular, Wang Tai once presided over the martial arts examination in Langya City. At that time, Yang Xuanlan, the general and examiner of the town, had used public services for personal gain and revoked Yang Jiwu's qualification for the examination. Wang Tai was in charge of the examination in Langya County, and he knew this clearly.
, witness it with your own eyes.
When all these things were added up, a bigger earthquake immediately occurred in the imperial capital. Even the emperor, who was living in seclusion in the palace, was alerted and personally asked about the matter.
Wang Tai sued Prince Taiyuan. Many people originally doubted him, but now, even many military bosses who had a wait-and-see attitude have come out and sided with Wang Tai.
The imperial court has its own rules and regulations, and it has always been taboo to use public weapons for personal use. This is the same even if Prince Taiyuan is a prince of the royal family.
There was only one actual ruler of the Han Dynasty. Although Prince Taiyuan was the most powerful person in Taiyuan in the east, he had not yet reached the point of covering the sky with one hand.
All rights must be exercised under the empire's system and are based on the empire's strength. No one can violate this.
In the northwest of the Han Dynasty, adjacent to the imperial city, a huge palace made of brass stands. These brasses are crystal copper from different dimensions, and are covered with lines, but these lines are natural.
Naturally formed.
It can't be compared to Fulu Steel.
In the Han Dynasty, apart from the imperial palace, this was the largest building.
Everyone who enters here feels like a little person entering the land of giants. Everything here is much bigger than other things.
The crystal copper pillars here are each the size of a house and hundreds of feet high. It is impressive.
At the deep palace gate, the golden stairs tower into the clouds. At the gate, the guards are not ordinary soldiers, but huge North Sea giants who are as big as eight heads and clouds.
The eight-headed giants are all wearing giant golden battle armor made by the empire, and their heads are majestic, like gods descending from the sky.
Everyone who sees these giants will feel a deep fear from deep in their hearts.
This was the place with the greatest and most concentrated power in the entire Han Dynasty, except for the emperor. Because it contained the three most powerful military governors of the Han Dynasty.
"Military Temple"!
These three characters are like dragons and phoenixes. They are shining with golden light, showing a flood-like momentum, as if something is about to rush out from inside.
This is the military temple where the empire was founded.
Under Taizu of the Han Dynasty, the first military god of the empire was founded. Later, the military god divided his power into three. This is the origin of the three military governors.
Although the military system of the Han Dynasty was changed, all the institutions at all levels remained unchanged. They still followed the ancestral system of the early empire.
After the three military governors took control of the military, they still lived in the place where the military god used to handle the army, maintaining the tradition.
The military temples overlap one another, and the inner garden is extremely deep. With the dazzling golden steps, the layers rise higher and higher, and finally tower into the clouds. There are two places in the Imperial Capital of the Han Dynasty that cannot be looked up to.
One is the military temple and the other is the royal palace!
The military temple goes from low to high along the steps. The palace buildings are majestic, solemn and sacred. However, the higher you go, the more unreal you feel, as if these temples have entered another time and space when they reach high.
When we reached the highest point of the Military Temple, the void had long been blurred, and it was like a whirlpool. Even the outline of the main hall could not be seen clearly, as if it had completely left this world and entered another mysterious time and space.
Solemn and sacred!
Every warrior who looks up at the highest point of the Military Temple can feel the trembling and terror coming from deep within.
In the Han Dynasty, the three military governors were god-like existences. Even the princes of the royal family were sometimes in awe.
At this moment, Wang Tai was deep in this awe-inspiring hall.
"...Prince Da Taiyuan used official weapons for personal use. His son-in-law had a conflict with the newly promoted Wu Jieyuan. He should have avoided the taboo. But instead of avoiding the taboo, he actually dared to change the list of martial arts examinations for his own selfish purposes. It is really outrageous.
It’s lawless and chilling!”
"The Han Dynasty governed the country by laws and regulations. When did the turn of feudal towns come to separate the country? Wang Tai is not talented, so he is willing to ask three military governors to report to the emperor and get rid of this matter!..."
Wang Tai looked excited, and his high-pitched voice hit the ground like gold, iron, or pearls, vibrating along the long cloud steps and resounding in the majestic and towering Military Temple.
In front of him, there was a huge invisible shield with chaotic clouds and wisps of clouds, towering into the clouds. Wang Tai stood in front of the shield, as small as a mote of dust.
This is a forbidden law in the Military Temple. There are steps on every level from the underground to the upper floors. The generals who enter the Military Temple advance based on their own strength.
The weaker the strength, the further away from where the three military governors are at the top of the palace.
This is not because the three military governors are unwilling to meet with them because of their high status. It is simply because the level of the three military governors is too high, completely beyond the imagination of ordinary warriors.
Just a little bit of aura and coercion leaked from their bodies may cause the Dantian of the general who came in to see him to be shattered and his soul to be broken.
This is also a kind of protection for military generals.
Wang Tai's strength is already good, but he can only go so far. If he goes any further, under the pressure of the three military governors, he may explode and die.
"Absurd! Wang Tai, you, a little scientific examiner, dare to point fingers in front of me?"
Before the voices of the three military governors could be heard, there was a rumble of thunder behind the barrier, and a whirlpool of cyan thunderclouds faintly transformed into an arched portal emerging from behind.
A cold, indifferent, and condescending voice came from the whirlpool of thunder clouds. The voice was extremely majestic, and at the same time, it exuded an air of authority.
Wang Tai was very familiar with this voice, because he had just heard it in Taiyuanzhou a few months ago.
"King Taiyuan!"
Wang Tai's expression turned cold, and he narrowed his eyes sharply, revealing deep hostility.
The Han Dynasty had a vast territory. In order to strengthen the connection between the continents, special magic formations were built in each continent by top Tiangong from the Ministry of Industry.
With the help of these magic circles, the princes guarding various places can communicate with the Imperial City at any time and contact each other. Although the distance between mountains and rivers cannot span time and space, they can still transmit sounds and influence.
However, this long-distance formation consumes a lot of money and requires a large amount of crystals. It is not an important thing and is generally not used easily.
It was obvious that Prince Taiyuan was summoned by the military and the imperial court, so he used this time-space formation, although his true identity was still in the distant Taiyuan Continent.
There is a huge gap in status and strength between military commanders and royal princes.
However, after hearing Prince Taiyuan's words, Wang Tai not only did not flinch, but an even greater unknown anger burst out in his heart.
"Xiao Xiao? Huh, the official system of scientific examiners was established by the Taizu of this dynasty. Officials, big or small, all serve the empire. This applies to the emperor's relatives, princes and ministers, to local generals, officials and common people.
"
"The imperial court is the imperial court, and the Han Dynasty is the Han Dynasty! Prince Taiyuan, what do you want to do because of your status? Do you think that because Taiyuanzhou is far away and located in a remote place, you can cover the sky with one hand and become a country of your own?
Are you being arbitrary?"
…
Wang Tai said angrily.
"nonsense!"
Upon hearing Wang Tai's accusation, Prince Taiyuan also turned cold, with a hint of murderous intent:
"Do I need you to teach me what I do? It's just a matter of examination, so what if I, the king, can act arbitrarily? But you, a small military commander, sue the nobles of the royal family and falsely accuse me. Do you know what the consequences will be?
?”
"Humph, Prince Taiyuan, do you want to threaten me? The laws of the Han Dynasty are here, so what if you are a royal nobleman? In his position, seek other positions. Prince Taiyuan, you use public weapons for personal use, and you are no longer qualified to rule Taiyuan
.Even if the Dali Temple Minister and the Clan’s Mansion come, I will still petition the Emperor to remove you from your position, choose another prince, and re-open the city!"
Wang Tai's face was red, his eyes were blazing, and he was furious.
Wang Tai has a strong temper, which has long been known to everyone in the military. Otherwise, Wang Tai would not have been so fierce that he went to the three military governors to sue Prince Taiyuan when he found out that Yang Ji's ranking had been adjusted.
It would have been fine if Prince Taiyuan had said it nicely, but the more indifferent, disdainful, and threatening he became, the more intense Wang Tai became, and his youthful stubbornness once again overcame the rules of officialdom.
"Hmph! Okay, okay! Wang Tai, if this is the case, I will make it happen for you!"
