Chapter 339 Leaving Fengrong and returning to the status quo
Yan Xi did not attend the emperor's grandson's birthday party. He thought that he had no friendship with the emperor. Since he had left the court and embarked on the path of cultivating immortality, it was best not to have too much involvement with the royal family.
This was naturally different from Rong Che, so they agreed early in the morning that they would leave immediately after the first-year banquet.
When the emperor saw Rong Che and Rong Che saying goodbye, he knew that it would be difficult to see each other again, so he was very sad and got up to see them off in person.
All the way to the outside of the Qinzheng Palace, the emperor stared at Rong Che closely, reluctant to leave.
The only thing the emperor and the late emperor have in common is that they both value friendship.
Seeing this, Yan Qingzheng had no choice but to say goodbye to the queen, indirectly reminding the emperor that it was time for them to leave.
Rong Che looked at the crowd of people following the emperor, and looked at the emperor in front of him who was no longer young. He seemed to be reminded of his high-spirited appearance when he was the prince, and he couldn't help sighing.
"Your Majesty, what Qing'er mentioned cannot be made at the moment. When it is ready, we will contact the chief minister." Rong Che said softly to the Emperor.
The emperor was stunned, and the tears he had been suppressing almost burst out of his eyes.
Rong Che thought for a moment and reached out to pat the emperor's shoulder, as if to remind him of the heavy responsibility he shouldered.
The emperor choked with sobs and held back his tears as he said, "Uncle Emperor, if you have time, come back and have a look."
Rong Che thought about it seriously and nodded.
Then he saluted the emperor with the courtesy of a monarch and a minister for the last time, turned around and walked down the steps without looking back, and walked away from Yan Qingzheng.
The emperor stood on the steps with his hands behind his back, watching Rong Che disappear outside the palace gate in the distance. All the civil and military officials accompanied them respectfully with their heads lowered, and the entire Qinzheng Palace was silent.
No one could see the two lines of tears falling from the emperor's eyes because no one dared to stand in front of him.
After the tears dried, the emperor finally closed his eyes, pursed his lips tightly and turned around, with a kind smile on his face.
"Let's go, the banquet is about to begin!" He walked back to the Qinzheng Hall first, and the officials separated on both sides at lightning speed to make way for him.
Step by step from the gate of Qinzheng Hall to the supreme throne, this feeling is very strange. The emperor usually comes from the back hall.
Today, Rong Che presented the list of gifts from the civil and military officials to the emperor. He had several meanings. First, he would not be involved in government affairs again, so that the emperor could rest assured. Second, he wanted to let the emperor know that so many people were waiting and watching, and that the emperor could not control it.
Because of the court.
This was the last time he fulfilled the duties of a prince and the obligations of an uncle.
The emperor stared at the throne that was just around the corner, his eyes blazing. It seemed that the civil and military officials thought he was a weak emperor, and they were all thinking about how to control him!
Then let them see who can control whom!
Before leaving, Nalan Lianyue proposed to go to the other courtyard to pay homage to Tong Yao.
The four of them left hand in hand, and the other courtyard became much deserted. It has not been given to anyone else yet. It seems that the emperor still maintains respect for his father and former teacher, even if their final relationship made him extremely entangled.
The four of them worshiped Tong Yao without any nostalgia, and finally stepped on the flying sword and flew towards Guiyimen. Although Guiyimen was established only a short time ago, several people have already considered it their home.
There was a prosperous scene in the Guiyi Sect. After the four people returned, they found that although the junior disciple competition meeting would be held in two months, everything in the sect was in order.
Mr. Bao sighed when he saw them and said, "Please stop running around before the competition is over!"
Yan Qingzheng was very embarrassed and kept saying, "I won't run away, I won't run away!"
Mr. Bao was relieved.
Everyone washed up and held a meeting at night. Mr. Bao reported the progress of the competition and put forward new ideas.
"The weapon refining competition will be held in the Weapon Refining Peak, the alchemy competition will be held at the Golden Python Peak, the talisman making competition will be held at Elder Hu's Drunkard Peak, and the ordinary competition will be held at Elder Nalan's Haoyue Peak. The finals of each competition will be held on
In the central square.”
"This is good, it can also disperse the crowd. By the way, how many disciples of the sect have signed up now?" Yan Qing asked.
"Not counting us, Tianyi Sect and Ghost Sword Sect, there are currently thirty-seven sects that have signed up for the competition. In addition, Elder Hu has contacted some casual cultivators and wants to sign up." Mr. Bao is also asking his disciples now.
Do this work and count the results.
"Is there any pressure for us to receive the reception?"
"It's a piece of cake. There were over 10,000 guests during the inauguration ceremony."
"It's not hard work, it's your job."
"Then how many people have signed up for the competition in each event?"
"Of course, the ordinary competition has the most people. Thirty-three people signed up for the group competition, and four people signed up for the individual competition. I'd better ask Elder Hu to explain it to the casual cultivators. As for other events, there are relatively few people."
Elder Hu followed up Mr. Bao's words and said: "There are only two teams here among casual cultivators who have signed up for the team competition. Some of them have worked with temporary groups, some are recruited, and there are more than a dozen people who have signed up for the individual competition, two of them
One applied for weapon refining, two applied for alchemy, one applied for talisman making, and the rest were ordinary competitions."
"Well, it's okay, it's better than I thought. It will be like this this year, and it will be held again in five years. With this incentive, the number of applicants will definitely increase next time. The great prosperity of Xuanmen is just around the corner!" Yan Qing!
I hope that the hope of Xuanmen's ascension will greatly increase, and I also hope that auxiliary cultivators such as refining weapons, elixirs, and making talismans can also make great progress.
There are many goals that cannot be achieved overnight, but she is willing to set a precedent and move towards the final realization step by step.
After the meeting, Yan Qingzheng left Elder Chi behind.
"How is Ruying studying now?"
"Not bad, not bad. Now I can refine a fifth-grade spiritual weapon. I've made great progress!"
Elder Chi burst into laughter when he mentioned this.
"Then if Weapon Refining Peak is not busy, I would like to ask Elder Chi for a favor."
"Not busy, you say."
Yan Qing was smiling and said: "Then let's go to the Weapon Refining Peak to talk. I have researched a new formation diagram and I want you to take a look at it!"
The two of them said that and flew to the Weapon Refining Peak.
After Jin Mang walked out of the meeting hall, he asked Mr. Bao: "Why don't you tell Qing'er about my affairs?"
Mr. Bao looked back at her, turned aside to He Qun who was standing in the distance waiting for Jin Mang, and smiled lightly: "The master is not someone who cares about it. There is no need to mention it or not."
"But..." Jin Mang was very concerned.
"If you didn't even have this level of awareness, you wouldn't have become the elder of Guiyi Sect in the first place!" Mr. Bao said solemnly.
Jin Mang was stunned for a moment, then smiled with relief and said: "That's right, I was actually afraid that she would care."
It turns out that many sects actually came to communicate with each other in this competition. It was originally said to be good, but after Jin Mang and He Qun held their wedding, several conservative sects changed their minds. They could not accept Xiu.
The union between a person and a monster, he would rather withdraw from this competition than show his attitude of resistance.
Jin Mang was very troubled by this. She knew that Yan Qing had a passionate heart that wholeheartedly hoped for the prosperity of Xuanmen, and she did not want to hold back on this kind of thing.
I thought that Mr. Bao would at least mention this matter since Yan Qingzheng came back today, but he didn't mention it at all!
Sometimes Jin Mang is easy to get into trouble. Knowing that this matter is very important to Yan Qing, she will be very concerned about her plans being affected due to her own fault.
Just as Jie Qing was taking out the protective array diagram designed for Fengrong Palace, Elder Chi immediately took it away to study it with gleaming eyes.
"Don't worry, I will definitely be able to do it!" Elder Chi immediately took the array diagram and studied it.
However, Yan Qingzheng still caught up and gave a detailed explanation. After all, Elder Chi had never been to Fengrong Palace, and some places needed detailed explanation when making the formation base.
After a long while, Elder Chi pondered and said: "With such a formation, the cost of the formation base plate is not mentioned. If it is run all year round, it will be an astronomical sum. Is this necessary?"
The innocent people who were demonized flashed through Yan Qing's mind, and he thought of the capriciousness of the Demon Lord, whether it was Chen Chong or You Tang, their madness...
"It's very necessary!" Demonic cultivators are naturally alien in this plane, and they also need time to develop. So they will choose a place that is easy to control and valuable to station at the beginning, such as Fei Chumen, and they fell in love with Yu.
Zeguo. If Youtang hadn't extended his claws to the people of Fengrong Beichen Pass later, perhaps Xuanmen would never have discovered their identity as demon cultivators.
"Okay," Elder Chi didn't care that much, he just suggested.
Yan Qing was telling Elder Chi about the dynasty changes in the past few years, especially the recently discovered space cracks leading to the demon world, the emergence of demon cultivators one after another, and their crazy practices. Elder Chi did not expect that Yan Qing was going out.
I was so sad to see such a dangerous and dangerous thing happen to me.
"Don't worry," Elder Chi patted his chest and assured, "I dare not say anything else. As long as this formation diagram works, I will definitely be able to make it!"
"You always take action, there's nothing you can't do!" Yan Qing was complimenting.
Elder Chi began to study the formation diagram with great enthusiasm.
At this time, Nalan Ruying came over and shouted very cautiously: "Ah, cousin... er... leader!"
Yan Qingzheng asked her in a very easy-going manner if she could get used to it in Guiyi Sect.
"It's really good here!" Nalan Ruying, as Elder Chi's first disciple, had Elder Chi's obvious preference when distributing supplies. The state that he had forcibly improved before has gradually stabilized. Now he is deeply studying the weapon refining while cultivating to stabilize the state.
The way, life is relaxed and comfortable.
"By the way, I never asked you whether Kirigakure Gate has sent any compensation materials?"
Mentioning the Kirigakure Gate, a shadow flashed across Nalan Ruying's forehead. She lowered her gaze and nodded slowly: "I did send some, but I didn't understand what they meant at all, so I asked Mr. Bao to keep them for me."
Nalan Ruying was still very surprised. Previously, he chased her back with all his might, causing a stalemate. Now, which song is he singing?
Although the people of the Kirigakure Sect said it was compensation for themselves, but... for a disciple who left the sect... is there still such an operation?
Nalan Ruying has little experience and is really confused!
