After all this tossing, Nie Yun finally learned his lesson and sat quietly behind Her Royal Highness the Princess. He was an honest spectator and quietly watched the Qingkui who learned the way of the book come into being and get an imperial hairpin.
I was given a gold pen, returned to my seat with joy, and received the goods with envious eyes.
As long as you don't look for trouble, trouble will not come to you. Nie Yun nodded secretly, and then became more honest. Even when he saw the eldest princess and her friends running to the center of the banquet to join in the fun, he remained motionless.
"Master, I'll go up and have a look too." Shen Ling'er looked at the backs of Xiao Xue and Han Yue, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, then turned to Nie Yun and smiled.
"Eh? What were you doing there? Can you draw?" Nie Yun casually took the pastry on the counter that he had been embarrassed to take and put it into his mouth, saying casually.
"What's wrong, you can't join in the fun because you don't know how to draw?" Shen Ling'er's red lips curled up slightly, and she waved Nie Yun's sleeves hard and said coquettishly.
"Okay, okay."
Anyway, it's not a big deal. Nie Yun waved his hand casually, then picked up a piece of pastry and put it into his mouth. At the same time, he curled his lips secretly. The pastries on the eldest princess's desk were all more delicious than those on his own table. Wait.
I must secretly bring some to my senior sister to try, she likes sweets the most...
Shen Ling'er walked out from behind the desk, glanced at Nie Yun who was concentrating on tasting cakes, then slightly quickened her pace and walked quickly towards Han Yue and Xiao Xue.
"Sister Yueyue, Sister Xiaoxue!" Shen Ling'er rushed behind the two of them, then slapped them on the shoulders and said unexpectedly.
"Eh?" Han Yue and Xiao Xue turned around subconsciously, and suddenly froze halfway through the turn, but it was already too late.
Xiao Xue and Han Yue looked at each other, and both saw a wry smile in the other's eyes.
"Ling'er, how did you see that?" Han Yue did not cover up her original clear voice, but lowered her voice slightly.
"Hehe, smell it." Shen Ling'er chuckled, wrinkled her crystal nose again, sniffed, and explained: "Sister Yueyue's clothes have a very fresh fragrance, and Sister Xiaoxue's clothes have...
It feels very precious. I may not recognize you two when you are alone, but together... How can it be such a coincidence? You are both wearing a veil. I have never heard of the eldest princess traveling with you.
Will wear a veil."
"Hey... it's over." When Xiao Xue heard this, she patted her forehead a little: "I was recognized by Xiao Yunzi just like that..."
Han Yue's fair and pretty face also showed a touch of bitterness, and then a touch of blush... She was going to be laughed at by her junior brother!!!
"Who said the master recognized it?"
Um?
Han Yue and Xiao Xue were stunned at the same time, and then looked at Shen Ling'er instantly.
I saw Shen Ling'er's big eyes blinking: "He is so stupid, how could he recognize it if I didn't tell him..."
...
Nie Yun felt a little confused now. Originally, he was sitting alone in the back. At least he still had a disciple to chat with him. Now it was better. His good disciple accompanied Her Royal Highness the Princess for a walk.
When he came back, he sat directly in front of him. He and the eldest princess were laughing and chatting, as if they had become good friends all of a sudden...
Looking at the three smiling figures in front of him, Nie Yun felt helpless, but at the same time he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity, but he couldn't tell where it came from, so he could only shake his head and sigh secretly.
A few hours passed like this, the scriptures, meanings, and poems
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
The Qingkui who wrote poems and essays were finally selected one after another, and all of them received the royal title of His Majesty the Emperor, as well as valuable rewards.
It is worth mentioning that in this round of competition for the top position in the policy discussion, several figures on the left side of His Majesty the Emperor, namely the princes, also stepped forward one after another.
Now that the prince has not been established, people with a discerning eye can naturally detect the hidden smell of gunpowder in it, and they all wisely withdrew, leaving only five princes arguing with each other. What is surprising is that in this debate,
It turned out that His Highness the Sixth Prince, who had been wearing a warrior uniform while fighting against Vietnam, had the upper hand.
On the other hand, the other princes who had helped with political affairs early on were not as good as the sixth prince in terms of policy and discussion!
After His Majesty the Emperor nodded slightly and announced that the Sixth Prince would be Qing Kui, the faces of the few people became slightly stiffer.
If it was just like this, that would be fine. More importantly, after His Majesty the Emperor conferred the title of Qingkui on the Sixth Prince, he even ordered the Sixth Prince not to rush to the northern border after the new year, and left him in Kyoto!
This made several people feel a sense of urgency instantly!
Originally, the sixth prince was outstanding, but he was on the border and was destined to miss the crown prince. Now that he was transferred back to Kyoto, the implications made them tremble.
Could it be that he wanted the sixth prince to establish a certain prestige in the army first, and then return to the court to establish his own political team?
Thinking of this, the other princes looked at the sixth prince with a somewhat unkind look.
But these have nothing to do with Nie Yun.
Although he couldn't move around freely during this period, he couldn't be said to be bored. After all, before he entered the university, he had been studying poetry, classics, policy theory, etc., and he was pretty good at it.
Although he is not as good as those young elites, there is still nothing wrong with watching the excitement.
Unlike the eldest princess in front of me, her academic performance is not very good on weekdays. When it comes to classics and meanings, poems, and policy discussions, she doesn't even read them. She just sits in her seat and chats, which makes her want to steal food.
It was inconvenient to have a few pieces of pastry, but fortunately, when they came to join in the fun, I had secretly left one for my senior sister.
As the final group of young leaders were selected, His Majesty the Emperor stood up from his seat with a smile, and said in a majestic and clear voice: "I am very happy today. Originally I was still thinking that after only more than ten years of recuperation in the literary world, I would be able to
Will it change the current situation in which the literary world was in decline and literati were scattered?"
"Haha, now it seems that I am worrying too much." His Majesty the Emperor said as he raised the golden bottle on the table: "Please drink this cup together, for Wen Qiqingkui, and for the great work of the literary world.
drink!"
"Wen Qiqingkui drinks, drink for the great literary world!" Everyone at the banquet stood up solemnly and drank the sake together.
There were six figures among them, their backs straight, their faces slightly red, and the excitement in their eyes almost overflowing.
They are the kings who wish to congratulate Wen Liuqingkui. If nothing else happens, their names will be spread throughout Daqian after this Qionghua Banquet and become benchmarks in their respective ways! This is almost the biggest milestone for literati.
A commendation!
And the reason why there were only six figures was naturally because the Sixth Prince himself didn't care much about Qing Kui's name.
Perhaps it was because His Majesty the Emperor made a fortune during his career that he turned the glass upside down after drinking to show that he had drank it clean. Everyone on both sides followed suit in a hurry. Many scholars who just took a sip could only drink it in embarrassment. The wine in the glass was quickly poured into the mouth, and then the glass was tipped upright.
"Everyone, please sit down." His Majesty the Emperor only smiled slightly when he saw this scene, and then continued: "I have established a country through force, and the northern part of the country has been defeated.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Before we get rid of him, it is not enough to have a civil and military chief. We must have a military chief and a civil and military chief to stand side by side. Only then can we ensure that our great dynasty will prosper for thousands of years."
"Of course, Wu Kui is different from Wen Kui. As the saying goes, Wen Kui is not the first and Wu Kui is not the second. If two martial arts cultivators with similar strength can win or lose, they can only decide between life and death. I don't want to create a world where the title of No. 1 orders the entire world. The young people who do this are fighting life and death for such a false reputation, so they set up the five chiefs of weapon refining, talisman making, puppet making, alchemy refining, and battle formation, hoping that all the kings will chase them."
This is a good idea. Nie Yun nodded secretly.
The ranking of the martial arts Qingkui given by His Majesty the Emperor is different from the ranking in the academy. It is basically officially recognized as the number one in the world among people under thirty years old! The honor behind it is enough to make the entire Daqian martial arts People bleed and go crazy for it.
But His Majesty the Emperor also wanted to show the prosperity of Daqian martial arts, so the competition was relatively harmonious, and alchemy, talisman making, puppets, etc. that could also show the prosperity of martial arts became the first choice.
Just when Nie Yun was deep in thought, a few stout men who had obviously been prepared already walked towards the center of the banquet. After bowing to the top, they took out a huge copper stove with their backhand. , with the sound of the urn and the urn, he said: "Your Majesty, refining weapons requires earthly fire. I don't know this..."
The weapon refining of martial arts is naturally different from that of ordinary people. The black ice, cold iron, etc. used in it cannot be fused by ordinary fire rooms. Therefore, just like alchemy, it requires the support of earthly fire.
Just looking at the Donglin Garden, it obviously didn't look like there was an underground fire. His Majesty didn't even think of this. A trace of doubt flashed in the copper bell-like eyes of several strong men.
His Majesty the Emperor smiled and shook his head, and waved casually, and the eunuch in red immediately came forward holding a jade plate covered with red cloth.
"Although Donglin Garden does not have earth fire, I do have this." His Majesty the Emperor said as he gently opened the red cloth on the jade plate, revealing the fiery red beads inside.
The air around the fiery red beads was slightly twisted, emitting an astonishing temperature. Even from a distance, just looking at it seemed to give people a faint burning sensation.
From this point of view, even the jade plate and red cloth are probably not ordinary objects.
"Earth Fire Pearl!" At this time, some knowledgeable people exclaimed in surprise.
"It's really the Earth Fire Pearl..." Nie Yun sighed slightly, with a rare hint of fire in his eyes.
Earth Fire Beads, as the name suggests, are formed by the condensation of Earth Fire. However, they are not naturally formed. They are specially made by people in order to solve the problem of Earth Fire restrictions when refining weapons and elixirs.
But how can it be so easy to find ten thousand-year black ice that can withstand the high temperatures of concentrated earth fire?
You know, Nie Yun and others have been in the far north for so long, and they have obtained a lot of mysterious ice, but there is not a single piece of ten-thousand-year-old mysterious ice!
That would be fine if that was all, but the most troubling thing is that the success rate when making Earth Fire Orbs is ridiculously low. Even if it is the top master, he can only make five thousand-year black ice at most.
An earth fire bead...
Whenever the earth fire in the earth fire bead is used up, it is necessary to find a place where the earth fire is strong enough to replenish it. If you find a place where the earth fire is slightly weaker... I am afraid that the earth fire will be sucked directly.
destroyed.
All these reasons led to the fact that although Nie Yun had heard of the name of the Earth Fire Pearl, he had never actually seen it.
Now that I see dozens of them at once, it’s hard to believe...
After all, apart from the high cost, the Earth Fire Pearl has almost no other shortcomings.
Not to mention that it can be used to refine elixirs and weapons, it is a powerful magic weapon in itself. Just imagine, the concentrated earth fire spurts out in an instant, even if you are transformed into a mortal, you will not dare to resist.
