Time passes day by day.
Wake up overnight.
The atmosphere in Kyoto has changed a lot.
Many Kyoto residents noticed as soon as they got up that there were obviously more lamp-bearing agents on the streets. On both sides of the wide street, several lamp-bearing agents could be found standing guard a few meters apart.
After some inquiries, people learned that the royal ceremony was coming soon. At present, ministers from various prefectures and counties, the imperial court and local ministers, as well as some princes and nobles had arrived in Beijing in recent days.
Many dignitaries, dignitaries and big shots that ordinary people can't even imagine, have gathered in Kyoto. You can imagine what a huge undercurrent there will be in Kyoto.
It's no wonder that the lantern holder is so cautious.
The closer we get to the Imperial Festival, the more lively Kyoto becomes.
Many people were thinking that since some people dared to disrupt the previous martial arts competition between Da Wei and Da Zhou, there might be some trouble in this royal ceremony.
However, the previous martial arts competition between the Wei Dynasty and the Zhou Dynasty had already been disrupted once. If it were a royal ceremony, there would be further trouble if it was expected.
There is really no reason for the lamp keeper to save their face.
The actions of the lamp holder only attracted the attention of some interested people, and had little impact on the people living in Kyoto.
There are many shops on the street, the shouts of vendors and the chatter and laughter of customers are mixed, and there is an endless stream of pedestrians.
In this bustling and bustling scene, suddenly the sound of horse hooves burst into the picture.
"Get out, get out!"
"Get out of the way!"
It was a group of soldiers wearing black armor, riding tall strange beasts, scolding the pedestrians on the street, driving them to both sides of the street, and making way for a wide road.
Pedestrians retreated in fear and gave way, daring not to conflict with them.
On this road, a luxurious carriage drove slowly.
The entire body of the carriage is made of precious obsidian, which is brilliant and exudes a faint mysterious luster. The wheels are engraved with complex cloud patterns.
There was a faint golden light surrounding it, as if there was a mysterious force protecting the carriage.
The horses pulling the cart are not ordinary horses, they have the blood of the strange beast Yun Shanying.
They have pure white feathers and golden eyes, and their horse hooves step on the dust, creating streams of light like fireworks, which makes people awe-inspiring.
The moment this carriage appeared, it became the most eye-catching focus on this street, and people were amazed.
"Is this King Nanming's car?"
"King Nanming has also come to Kyoto, and he came earlier this year than in previous years."
"After all, it is a royal ceremony. It is a celebration held once every few years in the Zhou Dynasty. Other ministers of the court may not pay attention to it, but it is impossible for the King of Nanming not to pay attention to it. It is better to come here early."
"This noble man is deeply favored by the current emperor. He also brought his own private soldiers with him when he came to Kyoto. He is really blessed by God."
Everyone looked at King Nanming's car and talked a lot.
In the midst of the discussion, the police officers standing on both sides of the street saw King Nanming's car, looked at each other, communicated silently with their eyes, and secretly became vigilant.
The police officers at the bottom of the Lantern Division did not know what was going on, nor did they know the true identity of King Nanming. They only received a notice from their superiors that any prince or noble who came to Beijing must be extremely alert and deal with it carefully.
Their vigilance was not just directed at King Nanming.
And let’s talk about driving.
Inside the luxurious carriage, smoke was lingering, and on a soft couch made of the fur of an unknown animal, a middle-aged man sat, plucking two jade beads in his hand.
He was wearing a dark purple python robe and had a cold face. He looked out the window and saw the lantern-holding police officers standing several feet apart on both sides of the street. The corners of their mouths were slightly pursed, and there was a slight smile on their serious faces.
"The lantern holder, with such a big fanfare, it seems that you are worried that something will happen during the royal ceremony."
"If under such strict security, something unexpected happens during the royal ceremony..."
"I think the picture will be interesting, very interesting."
The middle-aged man played with the jade beads in his hand. After looking at the policeman holding the lamp outside the window for a while, he calmly withdrew his gaze, sat in the carriage, closed his eyes and meditated.
The carriage drove slowly and stopped when it reached the royal palace in Kyoto.
"My lord, here we are."
When King Nanming heard the sound, he slowly opened his eyes, stood up, and got out of the carriage.
Guards wearing armor lined up on both sides, with solemn expressions and cold expressions, exuding a powerful aura.
As the guards of King Nanming, most of these people are quite powerful.
If you switch to Jianghu sects, most of them can become true disciples.
And next to King Nanming, he could only be an unknown guard.
King Nanming turned his head and asked the steward of the palace next to him, "Where is the princess?"
"The princess is in the palace and has not been out."
King Nanming nodded slightly and looked at the front of the house thoughtfully.
"You guys rest here, pack up the things that were brought here, and then tell the princess that I will come back in the evening."
"After coming to Beijing, I need to go to the palace as soon as possible to meet my royal brother."
When he mentioned the word "Emperor Brother", King Nanming's face showed a hint of meaning.
The butler responded respectfully.
King Nanming got back on the carriage, and the groom drove the carriage towards the Zhou Palace.
Prince Nanming's Mansion is very close to the Imperial Palace of Zhou Dynasty, just one street apart. In only a quarter of an hour, Prince Nanming arrived at the Imperial Palace of Zhou Dynasty.
In front of the palace gate, King Nanming got off the carriage.
Even if he was deeply favored by the emperor, he could not enter the palace in a carriage.
King Nanming glanced at the majestic Qinghua Gate of the Great Zhou Palace and walked slowly into the palace.
The guards guarding the palace gate obviously recognized that the person who came was King Nanming, who was most favored by the emperor of Zhou Dynasty. They did not dare to come forward to ask about the jade plate and let him go directly.
King Nanming walked all the way into the palace and came to the outside of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
At this time, it was the time of the court meeting, and the officials and officials were discussing matters with the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty in the court hall.
Voices sounded from the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
Hearing the officials and ministers discussing the government affairs in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, King Nanming's expression did not change at all. He secretly clenched his fists, and the jade beads he was playing with in his hands made a faint sound.
Soon, his hand movements relaxed again, and he stood outside the hall and waited.
When King Nanming came to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the eunuch outside the palace saw King Nanming. He was slightly startled. He did not need King Nanming's own orders and hurriedly informed him to come in.
After the eunuch went in to report.
Your Majesty the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
A voice from Zhao Jin came to the ears of Emperor Zhou who was watching the officials.
"Your Majesty, King Nanming has arrived."
When Emperor Zhou heard these words, his face, which had been majestic just now, relaxed slightly, and a smile appeared on his face.
The chaotang, which seemed quite depressing just now, instantly became much brighter.
Emperor Zhou gently raised his hand to shut up the minister who was speaking in the audience, and turned his head to Zhao Jin and said:
"Let him in quickly."
The Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, who had experienced the fratricide between his royal brothers, placed special emphasis on brotherhood and blood ties.
He was not only particularly fond of King Nanming, he was also particularly fond of his own children and even his nephew Cheng Guang.
But there is a difference between pampering and pampering. For the prince, it was more like candies and sticks to urge him, but for Cheng Guang, he was completely doted on.
Just like Queen Mother Li.
It's just not too obvious.
After the Emperor Zhou finished speaking, Zhao Jin understood what he was saying and hurriedly said loudly:
"Xuan, King Nanming enters the palace!"
After Zhao Jin's words came out, all the officials in the audience couldn't help but turn their heads and look behind them.
"King Nanming has come to Beijing?"
"When did this happen?"
"I think it was today. If it were yesterday, I wouldn't have received no information at all."
"This one is quite early."
"It's okay. Many ministers have arrived in Beijing. King Nanming is already slow."
All the officials in the court looked behind them and commented from time to time.
Above the court, Cheng Zhihai stood silently aside, closing his eyes and concentrating. At this time, he had not told the Emperor of Zhou that King Nanming missed the prince.
If the Emperor of Zhou had been told in advance, not to mention whether the Emperor would believe it or not, even if he believed it, according to the Emperor of Zhou's iron-hearted and tender emperor's character who attached great importance to family ties, he would not be concerned about the existence of King Nanming, his only younger brother. I won't have the heart to do it.
Cheng Zhihai knew that it would be better to catch King Nanming on the spot and reveal his true form.
Maybe it would be better if you kill it first and tell it later.
At this moment, Cheng Zhihai suddenly thought, would it be a good choice to take action in the court?
Cheng Zhihai suddenly had such a crazy idea in his mind.
It must be said that it was a very simple and straightforward idea to capture King Nanming directly in the court.
First of all, there are many powerful people in the court. There is no support from the demons and monsters behind King Nanming. At this time, it can be said that he is in an isolated and helpless state.
The only trouble is that by taking action above the imperial court, Cheng Zhihai himself is afraid that he will suffer some infamy.
At the same time, by taking action in the court, it can be said that the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty was not taken seriously. Even if King Nanming missed the prince, this would destroy the royal majesty.
Even if King Nanming is captured in the end, it proves that King Nanming just misses the prince, and the emperor will not look good.
In addition, once the Emperor of Zhou learned that King Nanming missed the prince, he suffered a double blow.
I still don’t know how angry the Emperor of Zhou will be.
Although Cheng Zhihai has an old-fashioned temperament, is meticulous, and always does things according to the rules, he is very careful.
If you still act according to the rules at this time and arrest King Nanming in the court, you really will not understand the emperor's thoughts.
Cheng Zhihai thought about this and moved his majestic gaze outside the hall.
I plan to see who King Nanming is, and then decide when to take action against King Nanming.
In Cheng Zhihai's view, rather than taking the initiative to arrest King Nanming himself, it might be better to wait until King Nanming himself is exposed at the royal ceremony.
At that time, many officials hidden in the court and loyal to King Nanming will be exposed, and they will be able to catch them all.
At the royal ceremony, he made all the arrangements first, and then gave all the credit to Guang'er.
In this way, Guang'er can also be seen as a saint in front of others.
In the future, not only will I be able to inherit my position as the lantern holder, but I might also be able to be rewarded by the emperor.
Cheng Zhihai thought so, and a smile suddenly appeared on his lips.
The officials around Cheng Zhihai saw the sudden smile on Cheng Zhihai's face and couldn't help but wonder why this selfless and selfless director of the lamp-holding department with blood-stained hands suddenly smiled so brightly.
laugh...
Weird and scary...
Some officials just looked at Cheng Zhihai, then couldn't help but shudder, and quickly turned their heads, not daring to look at Cheng Zhihai.
At this time, the sound of footsteps slowly came from outside the palace.
Tapping.
A middle-aged man wearing a dark purple python robe slowly walked into the Hall of Supreme Harmony under the gaze of hundreds of officials.
With a smile on his face, he looked around. When he glanced at Cheng Zhihai, he saw Cheng Zhihai also had a smile on his face. He was slightly startled, paused for a moment on Cheng Zhihai's face, and then turned his gaze to the high platform. The emperor of Zhou Dynasty.
Looking up at the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty, King Nanming adjusted his robes and saluted with a little respect: "I have met your Majesty."
Emperor Zhou looked at King Nanming with a rare gentle expression. He slowly raised his hand, looked at King Nanming with interest, and said with a smile:
"But that's too polite."
"This royal ceremony, you came a little earlier than in previous years. I thought it would take some time for you to come."
King Nanming's expression remained unchanged, but he said respectfully: "I used to leave the capital immediately after attending the royal ceremony and return to my fiefdom. This time I came earlier so that I could have some free time to pay homage to my mother and spend more time with Your Majesty. Time.”
After hearing what King Nanming said, Emperor Zhou's majestic eyes were filled with a little satisfaction and relief.
Although he didn't get along with this brother much, under the filter of family affection, Emperor Zhou couldn't help but feel good about him because of King Nanming's words.
Cheng Zhihai in the audience heard something strange in his eyes when he heard what King Nanming said.
This King of Nanming, or I really dare to say that I miss the prince.
After remembering the prince for so many years, I don’t know if my skills have improved. On the contrary, the thickness of my face has improved a lot.
At least I can say such unintentional words without blushing and my heart not beating.
Even Cheng Zhihai had to admit at this time that if Cheng Guang hadn't told him in advance that King Nanming missed the prince, he couldn't guess it, nor could he see that King Nanming had the shadow of missing the prince.
Emperor Zhou nodded slowly and whispered to King Nanming: "After the court meeting, you and I will go see the queen."
After saying that, Emperor Zhou's majestic gaze moved away from King Nanming and fell on the minister who was interrupted mid-sentence.
"continue."
The minister nodded quickly and responded. Under the gaze of Emperor Zhou, he felt a little nervous inexplicably and repeated what he had just said.
After saying that, he quickly returned to the team.
Next, the court proceeding as usual.
After the meeting, all the officials dispersed and left.
King Nanming followed the Emperor of Zhou and entered the harem.
Cheng Zhihai stood there and glanced at the back of King Nanming thoughtfully.
"Master Cheng, what's wrong?"
A voice came.
Cheng Zhihai turned around and saw the brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin.
This supernatural power uncle is also very famous and powerful among the generals.
He is a military commander of his own lineage.
Good relationship.
Cheng Zhihai smiled and replied, "Nothing."
After Cheng Zhihai finished speaking, he stood up slowly and walked out of the hall.
The brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin nodded slightly, and seemed to have thought of something, and quickly followed Cheng Zhihai.
"Master Cheng, wait, wait."
His appearance and body shape were inexplicably similar to Qiao Songshan's, as if they were carved from the same mold, and they looked like they were his own.
Cheng Zhihai stopped and looked at the brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin doubtfully, "What's wrong?"
The brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin's dark face covered with tiny scars showed a little embarrassment. After hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help but ask:
"Now that Cheng is older, may I ask how you usually train your heir?"
"That bitch in my family really embarrassed me in the martial arts competition between Wei and Zhou a few days ago. During this time, I locked him up in my home and let him practice well. But the more I disciplined him, the more he The more you don’t listen to me.”
"I'm good at fighting, but there's nothing I can do about teaching my children. His mother doesn't care about him, she's just doting on him. What do you think I should do?"
The brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin asked for advice.
Originally, Cheng Zhihai only had polite exchanges with the brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin, and was not interested in talking too much with him. When he heard that the brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin wanted to ask him how to train the prince, it didn't mean that he had trained Cheng Guang so well. Excellent?
Suddenly, interest arose.
"Well, let me tell you..." Cheng Zhihai had a smile on his face, and his tone sounded like an old father's complacency.
"Teaching children means serving them with a stick!"
"If the child doesn't listen to you, the truth is that he is beaten less."
"If you don't get beaten for one day, you can go to the house and untie the tiles. If you don't scold for two days, you can pick up and throw off your coat."
"Look at my Guang'er. Not long ago, he stole the show at the martial arts competition between the two countries. Not long ago, you looked at it, and you helped me find clues about the demon clan's smuggling. Recently, he also helped me with a big favor. .”
"This is really..."
Cheng Zhihai looked emotional.
The brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin nodded slightly thoughtfully.
I followed Cheng Zhihai closely all the way, listening to Cheng Zhihai's words, nodding slightly from time to time, and almost took out a small book to write down Cheng Zhihai's "secret recipe for raising children" sentence by sentence. After taking it home, I read it over and over again.
When it was time to say goodbye, Cheng Zhihai still had some unfinished thoughts.
"In short, the key to teaching children is to spank them. If you spank them too much, they will become obedient and they will grow up, you know?"
The brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin nodded and took a deep breath: "I've been taught. Mr. Cheng is indeed very powerful. There are ways to teach children well."
Cheng Zhihai nodded slightly. When passing by a shop, he saw that Cheng Guang's favorite pastries were sold. He thought for a moment and said:
"Zhongqin, you go back first, I'll go buy something first."
The brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin was confused: "Are you going to buy some pastries? Princess Yuemei usually likes to eat at this place."
Cheng Zhihai smiled and said, "This is what Guang'er likes to eat."
The brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin was dumbfounded when he heard this, "Master Cheng, didn't you say that you have to fight to become a talent? Why are you buying cakes?"
Cheng Zhihai looked helpless, "Either way, your boy Qiao Songshan won't listen to you. Just give him rewards and punishments. You should go back and think about it first."
After saying that, Cheng Zhihai took the cake and walked towards the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion calmly.
The brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin stayed where he was, his dark face tangled for a moment, then he entered the shop and came out with a pile of pastries.
His face showed a hint of contemplation, thinking to himself.
"That bitch of mine likes to follow the prince. If the prince likes to eat, he should also like to eat."
"Let him eat and cry at the same time, it must be very efficient."
Thinking of this, the brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin became excited and hurried back to his mansion.
Soon.
First there was a voice of joy.
"Dad, you are so kind. You even bought me pastries. This is really valuable. I think my boss often eats them."
Then, suddenly there was a sound of whipping.
It was quiet for a while.
It seems that people have become stupid.
"You stinky brat! Your cultivation has been promoted in vain! It's just that you didn't show off in the martial arts competition, and your brain is not that good! It's so embarrassing, let your uncle Wang Cheng make me laugh!"
"You need to practice hard for me, either to improve your cultivation level or to fix your brain!"
"No, dad, how can I fix my brain! I'm not stupid either!"
"I don't care! If your cultivation level doesn't break through to the Kai Shen realm! Don't leave the house!"
Here, there was another burst of chickens and dogs.
Cheng Zhihai didn't know at this time that because of his unintentional words, a father and son fell into a scene where the father was loving and the son was roaring.
Cheng Zhihai slowly walked into the Zhenguo Palace and headed straight towards the Wanxiang Garden.
In the Wanxiang Garden, Cheng Guang recently asked Song Yunqi to find him some intelligence information on the surrounding slaves. He planned to search by himself to see if he could find the True Yang Martial God Zhang Shunlong.
According to the information in the mission prompt, the True Yang Martial God Zhang Shunlong is still just a slave at this time.
But the timeline is uncertain. He may have had an epiphany, his cultivation has improved rapidly, and he may have escaped from slavery.
Maybe there is no epiphany yet.No matter what, now that Cheng Guang wants to find Zhang Shunlong, he will undoubtedly be looking for a needle in a haystack.
However, he is not in a hurry.
Anyway, Zhang Shunlong is still in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and it is not like living in seclusion in the world in the future. Compared with the time when the system task was released, it is undoubtedly much easier for him to complete the task now.
Sooner or later, he would be able to find Zhang Shunlong, the True Yang Martial God, it was just a matter of sooner or later.
While Cheng Guang was flipping through books and information, Cheng Zhihai's figure quietly appeared in the courtyard.
Looking at Cheng Guang, who was holding a book and reading in the bedroom, Cheng Zhihai's majestic eyes showed a little relief and distress.
I thought to myself that Guang'er might have found the whereabouts of the missing prince because of such hard work.
If it weren't for Guang'er, I'm afraid it would take a lot of effort to connect the missing prince with King Nanming.
Cheng Guang didn't notice Cheng Zhihai at this time, he was still flipping through the books in his hand, but Qingluan behind him noticed.
Just when Qingluan was about to salute and say hello to Cheng Zhihai, Cheng Zhihai raised a finger and stood beside Cheng Guang with a doting look, looking at the information in Cheng Guang's hand.
Looking at the intelligence information in Cheng Guang's hand, he was a little confused.
What is Guang'er looking at?
It’s all about slaves, what’s so interesting about it?
Cheng Zhihai didn't think much about it. After watching for a while, he saw that Cheng Guang hadn't noticed his presence yet, so he took the initiative to cough to attract Cheng Guang's attention.
Cheng Guang noticed the movement and found Cheng Zhihai standing behind him. He was a little surprised, but also laughed and said: "Dad, why are you here?"
Cheng Zhihai took out the cake in his hand and said with a smile, "I'll give you some food."
When Cheng Guang heard this, he raised his head and looked at the sky.
The corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
"I've just finished eating."
When Cheng Zhihai heard Cheng Guang's words, he was a little flustered, his body seemed sluggish, and he held up the pastry box in his hand, feeling at a loss.
Cheng Zhihai, the unselfish and selfless director of the Lantern Holding Department, who was in awe of countless officials and ministers of the imperial court, could show such an expression. Cheng Guang was probably the only one among the heavenly beings.
Seeing this, Cheng Guang did not embarrass Cheng Zhihai. He took the pastry box from Cheng Zhihai's hand and said with a smile: "Okay, dad, put it down. I'll eat more when I'm hungry."
Cheng Zhihai nodded quickly, "Eat something when you're hungry. Don't worry about what your mother says about you gaining weight. It's fine if you're a man."
"But don't overeat."
Cheng Guang nodded.
Cheng Zhihai touched his head in embarrassment, and for a moment he didn't know what to talk about with Cheng Guang.
It's especially easy to be silent between father and son.
After Cheng Zhihai was silent for a moment, he was speechless and left as if he was autistic.
Cheng Guang looked at Cheng Zhihai's back and then at the exquisite pastry box beside him. The faint fragrance that filled it was exactly what he liked to eat in recent days.
Although Cheng Zhihai was not at home much and was busy with work, he seemed to care about him no less.
Cheng Guang's heart warmed slightly, and then he looked at Qingluan aside, "Qingluan, you should eat something first."
"I'm not hungry yet."
After hearing this, Qingluan pursed her red lips slightly and waved her hands quickly: "Your Majesty, this is given to you by the master of the family. How can I have the nerve to eat it..."
Cheng Guang picked up a piece of red bean cake from the pastry box, brought it to Qingluan's red lips, and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of? You eat it first."
Qingluan couldn't hold back the light, so he had to take a small taste.
The taste is sweet.
I think I bought it at the famous Nanxiangbo in Kyoto.
"The master of the family is very kind to the prince."
Qingluan said silently in his heart.
Cheng Guang withdrew his gaze from Qingluan, flipping through the slave information on the desk one by one, and suddenly realized something.
Damn it, I haven't asked Cheng Zhihai just now how he wants to solve the matter with King Nanming.
Princess Nanming had just told her that King Nanming had returned.
Cheng Guang was curious about this King Nanming whom he had never met before, or that he missed the prince a little bit.
I miss the prince who has been the prince for hundreds of years. In the end, the throne did not fall to him. It is really sad to think about it.
Now, before his plan was implemented, he was exposed by himself. At this time, he didn't know it, and it could be said that it was even worse.
Cheng Guang thought to himself that if Cheng Zhihai didn't take action in recent days, he might just want to wait until the royal ceremony to kill King Nanming in one fell swoop.
The royal ceremony is indeed a good opportunity. If prepared in advance, not only can King Nanming be captured, but also the demon clan behind King Nanming and the court officials who are silently loyal to King Nanming can be dealt a blow.
Demonstrate the majesty of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Revitalize the iron-blooded lantern keeper.
The only trouble is that Princess Nanming must not make any mistakes during this period.
Cheng Guang squinted his eyes. His charming pupils had no effect on Princess Nanming. Her spiritual cultivation was extremely high. At most, the charming pupils could exert some influence on her. If he wanted to completely control Princess Nanming, it would be difficult. Very possible.
Even if Hei Zai is by his side, he can suppress Princess Nanming, but he can suppress Princess Nanming's body, but he cannot suppress her mind.
If Princess Nanming secretly told King Nanming, he really wouldn't be able to do anything.
If we don't alert the enemy now, we are betting that Princess Nanming won't do this.
Because Princess Nanming did this and it was of no use.
It was impossible for her to escape. Once she died, the effect of the Si Tong Yi Bao would be lifted, and King Nanming's identity would naturally be exposed, and it was impossible for King Nanming to escape.
She is obedient now, and he might be able to save her life in the future.
After all, Princess Nanming is the Demon Emperor's clone, so she can't figure out this account.
Cheng Guang had a plan in mind and shook his head with a smile.
Looking at the hazy, light blue sky in the distance.
I don’t know if I can find out the whereabouts of the future True Yang Martial God, Zhang Shunlong, before the royal ceremony.
I hope I can find out before the royal festival.
Otherwise, after the royal ceremony, he would have to marry Qin Yanqiu, the Valkyrie of the Northern Expedition.
Getting married is a troublesome thing.
At that time, he may not be able to find time to deal with this Zhenyang Martial God.
Cheng Guang's mind was racing with thoughts, and his eyes returned to the books and papers on the desk.
…………
Time has passed very quickly since King Nanming arrived in Beijing.
In Kyoto, various forces have gathered at this time, and conflicts will break out at every turn, requiring the lantern keeper to come to the rescue quickly.
In just this month, the prison of the Kyoto Light Holder already felt overcrowded.
Xia uses force to disrupt the ban, and practitioners are much more difficult to control than ordinary people who cannot practice.
On the day of the Imperial Festival, a solemn and solemn atmosphere filled the streets of Kyoto, as if the air had become heavy.
The entire city was under strict control, and everyone could only stay indoors. The streets of Kyoto, which was originally bustling with activity, were suddenly deserted.
Many people looked through the windows and observed the scene of Shenyue Mountain in the distance.
The royal festival is not held in Kyoto, but outside Kyoto, in a forbidden area listed by the royal family, called Mount Kamigake.
Mount Kamigake, located east of Kyoto, is majestic, towering into the clouds and majestic.
Only during royal ceremonies, officials and ordinary people can have a glimpse of Shenyue Mountain. At other times, Shenyue Mountain is completely covered by a ban, shrouded in a layer of light clouds and mist, obscuring the entire view of Shenyue Mountain, making it difficult to see clearly. .
Cheng Guang was dragged out of bed by Cheng Zhihai and Wu Yuemei early in the morning, and climbed up to Shenyue Mountain early on the day of the royal ceremony.
The first thing that catches the eye is an endless stretch of mountains.
The mountain peaks are verdant, with clouds and mist lingering around them, like a fairyland.
The ancient trees in the mountains are towering, the forest is vast, the fresh air is refreshing, and the energy content seems to be much higher than outside.
Traveling along the mountain road, you will encounter some ancient houses from time to time. They have gone through vicissitudes of life, but they are still standing, seeming to tell the story of the magnificent history of the Zhou Dynasty for thousands of years.
There is a huge temple at the top of the mountain. The temple is solemn and colorful.
It was the place where the royal family held sacrificial ceremonies.
Cheng Guang was just a relative and could only watch from the outside. No one could go in except the emperor and some princes and princesses.
In addition, Cheng Guang was among the first group of people who arrived at Shenyue Mountain early.
Together with a group of police officers from the Lantern Division who are responsible for security work, they can be regarded as the vanguard force.
Most of the remaining people, including the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty, Queen Wang, Queen Mother Li, Wu Ling, and all the officials came one by one from behind.
Wu Yuemei also followed them, only Cheng Zhihai took Cheng Guang up to Shenyue Mountain first.
After Cheng Zhihai brought Cheng Guang to a location, he said with a cautious face: "Guang'er, no matter what happens later, you will stay here. Don't move around at will. I think the movement will not be small, but we will control it." middle."
"Don't panic. I will arrange for you some silver lantern agents to guard you. They are all strong men of the sixth and seventh grades. In addition, this is an opportunity to show your sainthood in front of others. I can kill as many rebellious officials as I can. I can't. Just hide here, understand?”
Cheng Guang nodded slightly, looking like he was very sensible.
Cheng Zhihai was also worried about Cheng Guang, so he came over to remind him.
Based on his understanding of Cheng Guang, Cheng Guang would not do such risky things.
So he left quickly.
Up and down Mount Shenyue, a majestic atmosphere filled the air. Many arresters holding lamps were arranged in sequence from the top of the mountain to the foot of the mountain.
In addition to the policemen from the Deng-Zhou Division, the Forbidden Army in the Imperial Palace of the Great Zhou Dynasty, as well as some strong men from the martial arts academy, were temporarily recruited to take charge of security work.
All this was not specially arranged because the Emperor of Zhou knew that King Nanming missed the prince, but it was the same as before.
It can be seen how much the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty attaches great importance to this annual royal ceremony.
Royal ceremonies are not only a way to comfort the spirits of ancestors, but also a good opportunity to show the majesty of the royal family to the world.
Cheng Guang stood by a pavilion halfway up the mountain. Several silver lantern agents stood respectfully beside him, looking at the appearance of the Zhou Imperial Palace in the distance.
At this moment.
clang--
clang--
clang--
Three chimes of bells came from the temple at the top of Shenyue Mountain, and a brilliant light slowly bloomed, illuminating the sky and thousands of households in Kyoto.
Suddenly, everyone felt the mighty imperial power.
Cheng Guang raised his eyes slightly, looking at the brilliant light above his head, and a faint pressure enveloped his heart.
"The royal ceremony has begun."
Cheng Guang muttered something silently in his mind, and then turned his attention to the Great Zhou Palace.
Under the attention of the people of Kyoto.
The gate to the imperial city is open.
In the solemn and melodious bells.
The Emperor of Zhou Dynasty, wearing a dragon robe and holding a scepter in hand, led all the officials out of the magnificent palace.
The emperor's face was serious and sacred, his hair was fluttering in the breeze, and half of his forehead was white, which made him even more majestic.
As he walked through the air, he seemed to interact with the vitality between heaven and earth.
Behind him, there were a group of royal family members, including Queen Mother Li, Queen Wang, Wu Yuemei, King Nanming, and a group of princes and princesses, among whom Cheng Guang also saw Wu Ling.
After not seeing each other for many days, Wu Ling seems to have become more confident.
She was wearing a light blue symmetrical waist-cinching skirt, with water-colored jasmine light sleeves fully opened, three thousand green silk tied into a loose bun, and a painted silver belt casually put on.
The waist is loosely tied with an ink-colored palace lining, and a simple flying butterfly hugging silver floral Huasheng is inserted sideways. The light-colored tassels fall casually, causing ripples in the wind. There is still a little cinnabar between the eyebrows. , Pingting's graceful figure.
Her beautiful face, her self-confidence, and a bit of nobility are all mixed in. You can’t see much of the original little white rabbit anymore.
hiss……
This girl has changed a lot inexplicably.
Was the Emperor of Zhou so good at cultivating people?
Or is it that power nourishes people?
Cheng Guang's eyes narrowed slightly. As Emperor Zhou and his party gradually approached, he looked at Wu Ling and couldn't tell what kind of cultivation she had at this time.
Cheng Guang was slightly shocked.
This is outrageous.
He is a bug-level being with the bloodline of the ancient Daxia royal family. This girl’s cultivation has increased and she is not weaker than me?
Is it a fourth-grade out-of-body realm?
or higher?
Cheng Guang looked at Wu Ling and couldn't tell how strong this girl was, and just felt a little powerless.
Sure enough, the future Empress of Zhou Dynasty is not such a simple character after all.
If you want to avenge the humiliation of the arm-wrestling, it is probably not possible now.
When Cheng Guang looked at Wu Ling, Wu Ling seemed to also see Cheng Guang.
The moment his eyes fell on Cheng Guang, a little joy emerged in his bright eyes, and the majestic and noble aura on his face instantly collapsed. He wanted to run over and say hello to Cheng Guang, but the situation around him did not allow it.
So he just blinked at Cheng Guang and stuck out his tongue playfully.
Cheng Guang: "..."
What is this girl doing?
A royal festival.
On such a solemn occasion, you, a prince, stick out your tongue for me to play with, right?
Cheng Guang wanted to cover his old heart, but the elderly couldn't stand this stimulation.
Emperor Zhou noticed Wu Ling's actions, glanced at Cheng Guang, returned his gaze, and walked towards the temple on the top of the mountain.
Cheng Guang's eyes also moved away from Wu Ling and fell on the royal family members around him.
Wu Yuemei was among them, looking at Cheng Guang and smiling gently at him.
It seemed as if his eyes had never left Cheng Guang's body since just now.
It wasn't until Wu Yuemei's figure passed by Cheng Guang that Wu Yuemei reluctantly looked away from Cheng Guang.
Cheng Guang felt that his old heart couldn't bear it anymore.
That's all for Wu Ling, why is Wu Yuemei like this?It's not like I haven't seen this before.
Inexplicably, it still reminds me of the sense of instant vision parents had when watching their children enter the stadium during sports games in previous lives.
Cheng Guang took one last look at King Nanming among the crowd.
Because there was Princess Nanming beside him, Cheng Guang recognized her at a glance.
This King Nanming is not ugly, he is a handsome old man.
In his previous life, he would have been an uncle-level player who could charm a lot of girls to death.
It's a pity that he is the sixth child.
Princess Nanming was very dignified at this time. She finally discovered the clues about the princess's stockings. After taking them off, the impact could not be eliminated for a while, and she could only maintain her cold and noble feeling.
When he noticed Cheng Guang's gaze, he quietly turned his head and rolled his eyes at Cheng Guang.
I just think this person is so annoying.
Cheng Guang smiled and ignored Princess Nanming.
He is now a guard.
After the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty, all the officials lowered their eyebrows and followed them humbly, not daring to slack off in the slightest.
Their team was vast, and at the front was a guard of honor dressed in brocade robes and embroidered robes. They held spears and iron halberds and walked in uniform steps.Then came the emperor's personal guards. They were wearing black black armor, with sharp gleams in their eyes and a terrifying aura all over their bodies.
When the team arrived at the temple, a fairy-filled rainbow suddenly burst across the sky from the brilliant light blooming above the temple, as if the gods between heaven and earth were blessing the royal ceremony.
All the officials looked up one after another, with surprise and awe in their eyes.
Emperor Zhou also stopped, looked up at the rainbow, took a deep breath, and then continued on.
Following the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty, he arrived in front of the temple.
There is a mysterious and sacred atmosphere in the surrounding air.
On the buildings on both sides of the road, cranes were flying in the air holding fairy grass in their mouths.
The officials and ministers were not qualified to enter the temple, so they stopped in front of the temple.
They were kneeling on both sides of the road.
At the foot of the mountain, many lantern-wielding officers, police officers, and imperial guards knelt down.
Cheng Guang also knelt down quietly. He couldn't make a conspicuous bag at this time.
The Emperor of Zhou entered the temple.
The figure became indistinct, as tall as a god, unable to be looked directly at.
Everyone could only see the slightly hazy figure of Emperor Zhou.
Suddenly, a majestic voice slowly sounded, the energy was so powerful that the sound shook the sky.
"The vastness of heaven and earth."
"The Sacred Ceremony."
"The ancestors' spirits are here."
"Bless me royally."
"May I have a prosperous Great Zhou Dynasty and peace and prosperity for the country and the people."
The voice of the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty was deep and powerful, full of majesty, and his tone was steady and deep. Every word was neither slow nor slow, neither urgent nor slow, but it revealed his sincerity.
He longed for Dazhou to get better.
He longed for the prosperity of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
He longs for...
The people of Dazhou can live a stable life.
He desires even more...
Wu's Great Zhou Dynasty will always be prosperous.
Cheng Guang was listening on the mountainside. Although he couldn't see the face of Emperor Zhou clearly, he could foresee that Emperor Zhou must be particularly sincere at this time. He prayed to his ancestors and ancestors to bless Zhou and recognized that he was not a good person. The eldest son of the Emperor of Zhou.
The reason why the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty has been working diligently since he ascended the throne may be because he didn't want to face his ancestors shamelessly when he was under the Nine Springs one day.
While Cheng Guang was thinking, he suddenly felt wary.
"boom!!!!!"
A pillar of vitality light containing a terrifying aura erupted from the sky above the temple.
"coming!"
Cheng Guang's eyes narrowed slightly, with a slight smile on his lips.
"Okay, okay, he is really the Demon Emperor!"
…………
(End of this chapter)
Time passes day by day.
Wake up overnight.
The atmosphere in Kyoto has changed a lot.
Many Kyoto residents noticed as soon as they got up that there were obviously more lamp-bearing agents on the streets. On both sides of the wide street, several lamp-bearing agents could be found standing guard a few meters apart.
After some inquiries, people learned that the royal ceremony was coming soon. At present, ministers from various prefectures and counties, the imperial court and local ministers, as well as some princes and nobles had arrived in Beijing in recent days.
Many dignitaries, dignitaries and big shots that ordinary people can't even imagine, have gathered in Kyoto. You can imagine what a huge undercurrent there will be in Kyoto.
It's no wonder that the lantern holder is so cautious.
The closer we get to the Imperial Festival, the more lively Kyoto becomes.
Many people were thinking that since some people dared to disrupt the previous martial arts competition between Da Wei and Da Zhou, there might be some trouble in this royal ceremony.
However, the previous martial arts competition between the Wei Dynasty and the Zhou Dynasty had already been disrupted once. If it were a royal ceremony, there would be further trouble if it was expected.
There is really no reason for the lamp keeper to save their face.
The actions of the lamp holder only attracted the attention of some interested people, and had little impact on the people living in Kyoto.
There are many shops on the street, the shouts of vendors and the chatter and laughter of customers are mixed, and there is an endless stream of pedestrians.
In this bustling and bustling scene, suddenly the sound of horse hooves burst into the picture.
"Get out, get out!"
"Get out of the way!"
It was a group of soldiers wearing black armor, riding tall strange beasts, scolding the pedestrians on the street, driving them to both sides of the street, and making way for a wide road.
Pedestrians retreated in fear and gave way, daring not to conflict with them.
On this road, a luxurious carriage drove slowly.
The entire body of the carriage is made of precious obsidian, which is brilliant and exudes a faint mysterious luster. The wheels are engraved with complex cloud patterns.
There was a faint golden light surrounding it, as if there was a mysterious force protecting the carriage.
The horses pulling the cart are not ordinary horses, they have the blood of the strange beast Yun Shanying.
They have pure white feathers and golden eyes, and their horse hooves step on the dust, creating streams of light like fireworks, which makes people awe-inspiring.
The moment this carriage appeared, it became the most eye-catching focus on this street, and people were amazed.
"Is this King Nanming's car?"
"King Nanming has also come to Kyoto, and he came earlier this year than in previous years."
"After all, it is a royal ceremony. It is a celebration held once every few years in the Zhou Dynasty. Other ministers of the court may not pay attention to it, but it is impossible for the King of Nanming not to pay attention to it. It is better to come here early."
"This noble man is deeply favored by the current emperor. He also brought his own private soldiers with him when he came to Kyoto. He is really blessed by God."
Everyone looked at King Nanming's car and talked a lot.
In the midst of the discussion, the police officers standing on both sides of the street saw King Nanming's car, looked at each other, communicated silently with their eyes, and secretly became vigilant.
The police officers at the bottom of the Lantern Division did not know what was going on, nor did they know the true identity of King Nanming. They only received a notice from their superiors that any prince or noble who came to Beijing must be extremely alert and deal with it carefully.
Their vigilance was not just directed at King Nanming.
And let’s talk about driving.
Inside the luxurious carriage, smoke was lingering, and on a soft couch made of the fur of an unknown animal, a middle-aged man sat, plucking two jade beads in his hand.
He was wearing a dark purple python robe and had a cold face. He looked out the window and saw the lantern-holding police officers standing several feet apart on both sides of the street. The corners of their mouths were slightly pursed, and there was a slight smile on their serious faces.
"The lantern holder, with such a big fanfare, it seems that you are worried that something will happen during the royal ceremony."
"If under such strict security, something unexpected happens during the royal ceremony..."
"I think the picture will be interesting, very interesting."
The middle-aged man played with the jade beads in his hand. After looking at the policeman holding the lamp outside the window for a while, he calmly withdrew his gaze, sat in the carriage, closed his eyes and meditated.
The carriage drove slowly and stopped when it reached the royal palace in Kyoto.
"My lord, here we are."
When King Nanming heard the sound, he slowly opened his eyes, stood up, and got out of the carriage.
Guards wearing armor lined up on both sides, with solemn expressions and cold expressions, exuding a powerful aura.
As the guards of King Nanming, most of these people are quite powerful.
If you switch to Jianghu sects, most of them can become true disciples.
And next to King Nanming, he could only be an unknown guard.
King Nanming turned his head and asked the steward of the palace next to him, "Where is the princess?"
"The princess is in the palace and has not been out."
King Nanming nodded slightly and looked at the front of the house thoughtfully.
"You guys rest here, pack up the things that were brought here, and then tell the princess that I will come back in the evening."
"After coming to Beijing, I need to go to the palace as soon as possible to meet my royal brother."
When he mentioned the word "Emperor Brother", King Nanming's face showed a hint of meaning.
The butler responded respectfully.
King Nanming got back on the carriage, and the groom drove the carriage towards the Zhou Palace.
Prince Nanming's Mansion is very close to the Imperial Palace of Zhou Dynasty, just one street apart. In only a quarter of an hour, Prince Nanming arrived at the Imperial Palace of Zhou Dynasty.
In front of the palace gate, King Nanming got off the carriage.
Even if he was deeply favored by the emperor, he could not enter the palace in a carriage.
King Nanming glanced at the majestic Qinghua Gate of the Great Zhou Palace and walked slowly into the palace.
The guards guarding the palace gate obviously recognized that the person who came was King Nanming, who was most favored by the emperor of Zhou Dynasty. They did not dare to come forward to ask about the jade plate and let him go directly.
King Nanming walked all the way into the palace and came to the outside of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
At this time, it was the time of the court meeting, and the officials and officials were discussing matters with the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty in the court hall.
Voices sounded from the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
Hearing the officials and ministers discussing the government affairs in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, King Nanming's expression did not change at all. He secretly clenched his fists, and the jade beads he was playing with in his hands made a faint sound.
Soon, his hand movements relaxed again, and he stood outside the hall and waited.
When King Nanming came to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the eunuch outside the palace saw King Nanming. He was slightly startled. He did not need King Nanming's own orders and hurriedly informed him to come in.
After the eunuch went in to report.
Your Majesty the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
A voice from Zhao Jin came to the ears of Emperor Zhou who was watching the officials.
"Your Majesty, King Nanming has arrived."
When Emperor Zhou heard these words, his face, which had been majestic just now, relaxed slightly, and a smile appeared on his face.
The chaotang, which seemed quite depressing just now, instantly became much brighter.
Emperor Zhou gently raised his hand to shut up the minister who was speaking in the audience, and turned his head to Zhao Jin and said:
"Let him in quickly."
The Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, who had experienced the fratricide between his royal brothers, placed special emphasis on brotherhood and blood ties.
He was not only particularly fond of King Nanming, he was also particularly fond of his own children and even his nephew Cheng Guang.
But there is a difference between pampering and pampering. For the prince, it was more like candies and sticks to urge him, but for Cheng Guang, he was completely doted on.
Just like Queen Mother Li.
It's just not too obvious.
After the Emperor Zhou finished speaking, Zhao Jin understood what he was saying and hurriedly said loudly:
"Xuan, King Nanming enters the palace!"
After Zhao Jin's words came out, all the officials in the audience couldn't help but turn their heads and look behind them.
"King Nanming has come to Beijing?"
"When did this happen?"
"I think it was today. If it were yesterday, I wouldn't have received no information at all."
"This one is quite early."
"It's okay. Many ministers have arrived in Beijing. King Nanming is already slow."
All the officials in the court looked behind them and commented from time to time.
Above the court, Cheng Zhihai stood silently aside, closing his eyes and concentrating. At this time, he had not told the Emperor of Zhou that King Nanming missed the prince.
If the Emperor of Zhou had been told in advance, not to mention whether the Emperor would believe it or not, even if he believed it, according to the Emperor of Zhou's iron-hearted and tender emperor's character who attached great importance to family ties, he would not be concerned about the existence of King Nanming, his only younger brother. I won't have the heart to do it.
Cheng Zhihai knew that it would be better to catch King Nanming on the spot and reveal his true form.
Maybe it would be better if you kill it first and tell it later.
At this moment, Cheng Zhihai suddenly thought, would it be a good choice to take action in the court?
Cheng Zhihai suddenly had such a crazy idea in his mind.
It must be said that it was a very simple and straightforward idea to capture King Nanming directly in the court.
First of all, there are many powerful people in the court. There is no support from the demons and monsters behind King Nanming. At this time, it can be said that he is in an isolated and helpless state.
The only trouble is that by taking action above the imperial court, Cheng Zhihai himself is afraid that he will suffer some infamy.
At the same time, by taking action in the court, it can be said that the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty was not taken seriously. Even if King Nanming missed the prince, this would destroy the royal majesty.
Even if King Nanming is captured in the end, it proves that King Nanming just misses the prince, and the emperor will not look good.
In addition, once the Emperor of Zhou learned that King Nanming missed the prince, he suffered a double blow.
I still don’t know how angry the Emperor of Zhou will be.
Although Cheng Zhihai has an old-fashioned temperament, is meticulous, and always does things according to the rules, he is very careful.
If you still act according to the rules at this time and arrest King Nanming in the court, you really will not understand the emperor's thoughts.
Cheng Zhihai thought about this and moved his majestic gaze outside the hall.
I plan to see who King Nanming is, and then decide when to take action against King Nanming.
In Cheng Zhihai's view, rather than taking the initiative to arrest King Nanming himself, it might be better to wait until King Nanming himself is exposed at the royal ceremony.
At that time, many officials hidden in the court and loyal to King Nanming will be exposed, and they will be able to catch them all.
At the royal ceremony, he made all the arrangements first, and then gave all the credit to Guang'er.
In this way, Guang'er can also be seen as a saint in front of others.
In the future, not only will I be able to inherit my position as the lantern holder, but I might also be able to be rewarded by the emperor.
Cheng Zhihai thought so, and a smile suddenly appeared on his lips.
The officials around Cheng Zhihai saw the sudden smile on Cheng Zhihai's face and couldn't help but wonder why this selfless and selfless director of the lamp-holding department with blood-stained hands suddenly smiled so brightly.
laugh...
Weird and scary...
Some officials just looked at Cheng Zhihai, then couldn't help but shudder, and quickly turned their heads, not daring to look at Cheng Zhihai.
At this time, the sound of footsteps slowly came from outside the palace.
Tapping.
A middle-aged man wearing a dark purple python robe slowly walked into the Hall of Supreme Harmony under the gaze of hundreds of officials.
With a smile on his face, he looked around. When he glanced at Cheng Zhihai, he saw Cheng Zhihai also had a smile on his face. He was slightly startled, paused for a moment on Cheng Zhihai's face, and then turned his gaze to the high platform. The emperor of Zhou Dynasty.
Looking up at the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty, King Nanming adjusted his robes and saluted with a little respect: "I have met your Majesty."
Emperor Zhou looked at King Nanming with a rare gentle expression. He slowly raised his hand, looked at King Nanming with interest, and said with a smile:
"But that's too polite."
"This royal ceremony, you came a little earlier than in previous years. I thought it would take some time for you to come."
King Nanming's expression remained unchanged, but he said respectfully: "I used to leave the capital immediately after attending the royal ceremony and return to my fiefdom. This time I came earlier so that I could have some free time to pay homage to my mother and spend more time with Your Majesty. Time.”
After hearing what King Nanming said, Emperor Zhou's majestic eyes were filled with a little satisfaction and relief.
Although he didn't get along with this brother much, under the filter of family affection, Emperor Zhou couldn't help but feel good about him because of King Nanming's words.
Cheng Zhihai in the audience heard something strange in his eyes when he heard what King Nanming said.
This King of Nanming, or I really dare to say that I miss the prince.
After remembering the prince for so many years, I don’t know if my skills have improved. On the contrary, the thickness of my face has improved a lot.
At least I can say such unintentional words without blushing and my heart not beating.
Even Cheng Zhihai had to admit at this time that if Cheng Guang hadn't told him in advance that King Nanming missed the prince, he couldn't guess it, nor could he see that King Nanming had the shadow of missing the prince.
Emperor Zhou nodded slowly and whispered to King Nanming: "After the court meeting, you and I will go see the queen."
After saying that, Emperor Zhou's majestic gaze moved away from King Nanming and fell on the minister who was interrupted mid-sentence.
"continue."
The minister nodded quickly and responded. Under the gaze of Emperor Zhou, he felt a little nervous inexplicably and repeated what he had just said.
After saying that, he quickly returned to the team.
Next, the court proceeding as usual.
After the meeting, all the officials dispersed and left.
King Nanming followed the Emperor of Zhou and entered the harem.
Cheng Zhihai stood there and glanced at the back of King Nanming thoughtfully.
"Master Cheng, what's wrong?"
A voice came.
Cheng Zhihai turned around and saw the brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin.
This supernatural power uncle is also very famous and powerful among the generals.
He is a military commander of his own lineage.
Good relationship.
Cheng Zhihai smiled and replied, "Nothing."
After Cheng Zhihai finished speaking, he stood up slowly and walked out of the hall.
The brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin nodded slightly, and seemed to have thought of something, and quickly followed Cheng Zhihai.
"Master Cheng, wait, wait."
His appearance and body shape were inexplicably similar to Qiao Songshan's, as if they were carved from the same mold, and they looked like they were his own.
Cheng Zhihai stopped and looked at the brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin doubtfully, "What's wrong?"
The brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin's dark face covered with tiny scars showed a little embarrassment. After hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help but ask:
"Now that Cheng is older, may I ask how you usually train your heir?"
"That bitch in my family really embarrassed me in the martial arts competition between Wei and Zhou a few days ago. During this time, I locked him up in my home and let him practice well. But the more I disciplined him, the more he The more you don’t listen to me.”
"I'm good at fighting, but there's nothing I can do about teaching my children. His mother doesn't care about him, she's just doting on him. What do you think I should do?"
The brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin asked for advice.
Originally, Cheng Zhihai only had polite exchanges with the brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin, and was not interested in talking too much with him. When he heard that the brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin wanted to ask him how to train the prince, it didn't mean that he had trained Cheng Guang so well. Excellent?
Suddenly, interest arose.
"Well, let me tell you..." Cheng Zhihai had a smile on his face, and his tone sounded like an old father's complacency.
"Teaching children means serving them with a stick!"
"If the child doesn't listen to you, the truth is that he is beaten less."
"If you don't get beaten for one day, you can go to the house and untie the tiles. If you don't scold for two days, you can pick up and throw off your coat."
"Look at my Guang'er. Not long ago, he stole the show at the martial arts competition between the two countries. Not long ago, you looked at it, and you helped me find clues about the demon clan's smuggling. Recently, he also helped me with a big favor. .”
"This is really..."
Cheng Zhihai looked emotional.
The brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin nodded slightly thoughtfully.
I followed Cheng Zhihai closely all the way, listening to Cheng Zhihai's words, nodding slightly from time to time, and almost took out a small book to write down Cheng Zhihai's "secret recipe for raising children" sentence by sentence. After taking it home, I read it over and over again.
When it was time to say goodbye, Cheng Zhihai still had some unfinished thoughts.
"In short, the key to teaching children is to spank them. If you spank them too much, they will become obedient and they will grow up, you know?"
The brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin nodded and took a deep breath: "I've been taught. Mr. Cheng is indeed very powerful. There are ways to teach children well."
Cheng Zhihai nodded slightly. When passing by a shop, he saw that Cheng Guang's favorite pastries were sold. He thought for a moment and said:
"Zhongqin, you go back first, I'll go buy something first."
The brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin was confused: "Are you going to buy some pastries? Princess Yuemei usually likes to eat at this place."
Cheng Zhihai smiled and said, "This is what Guang'er likes to eat."
The brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin was dumbfounded when he heard this, "Master Cheng, didn't you say that you have to fight to become a talent? Why are you buying cakes?"
Cheng Zhihai looked helpless, "Either way, your boy Qiao Songshan won't listen to you. Just give him rewards and punishments. You should go back and think about it first."
After saying that, Cheng Zhihai took the cake and walked towards the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion calmly.
The brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin stayed where he was, his dark face tangled for a moment, then he entered the shop and came out with a pile of pastries.
His face showed a hint of contemplation, thinking to himself.
"That bitch of mine likes to follow the prince. If the prince likes to eat, he should also like to eat."
"Let him eat and cry at the same time, it must be very efficient."
Thinking of this, the brave Bo Qiao Zhongqin became excited and hurried back to his mansion.
Soon.
First there was a voice of joy.
"Dad, you are so kind. You even bought me pastries. This is really valuable. I think my boss often eats them."
Then, suddenly there was a sound of whipping.
It was quiet for a while.
It seems that people have become stupid.
"You stinky brat! Your cultivation has been promoted in vain! It's just that you didn't show off in the martial arts competition, and your brain is not that good! It's so embarrassing, let your uncle Wang Cheng make me laugh!"
"You need to practice hard for me, either to improve your cultivation level or to fix your brain!"
"No, dad, how can I fix my brain! I'm not stupid either!"
"I don't care! If your cultivation level doesn't break through to the Kai Shen realm! Don't leave the house!"
Here, there was another burst of chickens and dogs.
Cheng Zhihai didn't know at this time that because of his unintentional words, a father and son fell into a scene where the father was loving and the son was roaring.
Cheng Zhihai slowly walked into the Zhenguo Palace and headed straight towards the Wanxiang Garden.
In the Wanxiang Garden, Cheng Guang recently asked Song Yunqi to find him some intelligence information on the surrounding slaves. He planned to search by himself to see if he could find the True Yang Martial God Zhang Shunlong.
According to the information in the mission prompt, the True Yang Martial God Zhang Shunlong is still just a slave at this time.
But the timeline is uncertain. He may have had an epiphany, his cultivation has improved rapidly, and he may have escaped from slavery.
Maybe there is no epiphany yet.No matter what, now that Cheng Guang wants to find Zhang Shunlong, he will undoubtedly be looking for a needle in a haystack.
However, he is not in a hurry.
Anyway, Zhang Shunlong is still in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and it is not like living in seclusion in the world in the future. Compared with the time when the system task was released, it is undoubtedly much easier for him to complete the task now.
Sooner or later, he would be able to find Zhang Shunlong, the True Yang Martial God, it was just a matter of sooner or later.
While Cheng Guang was flipping through books and information, Cheng Zhihai's figure quietly appeared in the courtyard.
Looking at Cheng Guang, who was holding a book and reading in the bedroom, Cheng Zhihai's majestic eyes showed a little relief and distress.
I thought to myself that Guang'er might have found the whereabouts of the missing prince because of such hard work.
If it weren't for Guang'er, I'm afraid it would take a lot of effort to connect the missing prince with King Nanming.
Cheng Guang didn't notice Cheng Zhihai at this time, he was still flipping through the books in his hand, but Qingluan behind him noticed.
Just when Qingluan was about to salute and say hello to Cheng Zhihai, Cheng Zhihai raised a finger and stood beside Cheng Guang with a doting look, looking at the information in Cheng Guang's hand.
Looking at the intelligence information in Cheng Guang's hand, he was a little confused.
What is Guang'er looking at?
It’s all about slaves, what’s so interesting about it?
Cheng Zhihai didn't think much about it. After watching for a while, he saw that Cheng Guang hadn't noticed his presence yet, so he took the initiative to cough to attract Cheng Guang's attention.
Cheng Guang noticed the movement and found Cheng Zhihai standing behind him. He was a little surprised, but also laughed and said: "Dad, why are you here?"
Cheng Zhihai took out the cake in his hand and said with a smile, "I'll give you some food."
When Cheng Guang heard this, he raised his head and looked at the sky.
The corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
"I've just finished eating."
When Cheng Zhihai heard Cheng Guang's words, he was a little flustered, his body seemed sluggish, and he held up the pastry box in his hand, feeling at a loss.
Cheng Zhihai, the unselfish and selfless director of the Lantern Holding Department, who was in awe of countless officials and ministers of the imperial court, could show such an expression. Cheng Guang was probably the only one among the heavenly beings.
Seeing this, Cheng Guang did not embarrass Cheng Zhihai. He took the pastry box from Cheng Zhihai's hand and said with a smile: "Okay, dad, put it down. I'll eat more when I'm hungry."
Cheng Zhihai nodded quickly, "Eat something when you're hungry. Don't worry about what your mother says about you gaining weight. It's fine if you're a man."
"But don't overeat."
Cheng Guang nodded.
Cheng Zhihai touched his head in embarrassment, and for a moment he didn't know what to talk about with Cheng Guang.
It's especially easy to be silent between father and son.
After Cheng Zhihai was silent for a moment, he was speechless and left as if he was autistic.
Cheng Guang looked at Cheng Zhihai's back and then at the exquisite pastry box beside him. The faint fragrance that filled it was exactly what he liked to eat in recent days.
Although Cheng Zhihai was not at home much and was busy with work, he seemed to care about him no less.
Cheng Guang's heart warmed slightly, and then he looked at Qingluan aside, "Qingluan, you should eat something first."
"I'm not hungry yet."
After hearing this, Qingluan pursed her red lips slightly and waved her hands quickly: "Your Majesty, this is given to you by the master of the family. How can I have the nerve to eat it..."
Cheng Guang picked up a piece of red bean cake from the pastry box, brought it to Qingluan's red lips, and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of? You eat it first."
Qingluan couldn't hold back the light, so he had to take a small taste.
The taste is sweet.
I think I bought it at the famous Nanxiangbo in Kyoto.
"The master of the family is very kind to the prince."
Qingluan said silently in his heart.
Cheng Guang withdrew his gaze from Qingluan, flipping through the slave information on the desk one by one, and suddenly realized something.
Damn it, I haven't asked Cheng Zhihai just now how he wants to solve the matter with King Nanming.
Princess Nanming had just told her that King Nanming had returned.
Cheng Guang was curious about this King Nanming whom he had never met before, or that he missed the prince a little bit.
I miss the prince who has been the prince for hundreds of years. In the end, the throne did not fall to him. It is really sad to think about it.
Now, before his plan was implemented, he was exposed by himself. At this time, he didn't know it, and it could be said that it was even worse.
Cheng Guang thought to himself that if Cheng Zhihai didn't take action in recent days, he might just want to wait until the royal ceremony to kill King Nanming in one fell swoop.
The royal ceremony is indeed a good opportunity. If prepared in advance, not only can King Nanming be captured, but also the demon clan behind King Nanming and the court officials who are silently loyal to King Nanming can be dealt a blow.
Demonstrate the majesty of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Revitalize the iron-blooded lantern keeper.
The only trouble is that Princess Nanming must not make any mistakes during this period.
Cheng Guang squinted his eyes. His charming pupils had no effect on Princess Nanming. Her spiritual cultivation was extremely high. At most, the charming pupils could exert some influence on her. If he wanted to completely control Princess Nanming, it would be difficult. Very possible.
Even if Hei Zai is by his side, he can suppress Princess Nanming, but he can suppress Princess Nanming's body, but he cannot suppress her mind.
If Princess Nanming secretly told King Nanming, he really wouldn't be able to do anything.
If we don't alert the enemy now, we are betting that Princess Nanming won't do this.
Because Princess Nanming did this and it was of no use.
It was impossible for her to escape. Once she died, the effect of the Si Tong Yi Bao would be lifted, and King Nanming's identity would naturally be exposed, and it was impossible for King Nanming to escape.
She is obedient now, and he might be able to save her life in the future.
After all, Princess Nanming is the Demon Emperor's clone, so she can't figure out this account.
Cheng Guang had a plan in mind and shook his head with a smile.
Looking at the hazy, light blue sky in the distance.
I don’t know if I can find out the whereabouts of the future True Yang Martial God, Zhang Shunlong, before the royal ceremony.
I hope I can find out before the royal festival.
Otherwise, after the royal ceremony, he would have to marry Qin Yanqiu, the Valkyrie of the Northern Expedition.
Getting married is a troublesome thing.
At that time, he may not be able to find time to deal with this Zhenyang Martial God.
Cheng Guang's mind was racing with thoughts, and his eyes returned to the books and papers on the desk.
…………
Time has passed very quickly since King Nanming arrived in Beijing.
In Kyoto, various forces have gathered at this time, and conflicts will break out at every turn, requiring the lantern keeper to come to the rescue quickly.
In just this month, the prison of the Kyoto Light Holder already felt overcrowded.
Xia uses force to disrupt the ban, and practitioners are much more difficult to control than ordinary people who cannot practice.
On the day of the Imperial Festival, a solemn and solemn atmosphere filled the streets of Kyoto, as if the air had become heavy.
The entire city was under strict control, and everyone could only stay indoors. The streets of Kyoto, which was originally bustling with activity, were suddenly deserted.
Many people looked through the windows and observed the scene of Shenyue Mountain in the distance.
The royal festival is not held in Kyoto, but outside Kyoto, in a forbidden area listed by the royal family, called Mount Kamigake.
Mount Kamigake, located east of Kyoto, is majestic, towering into the clouds and majestic.
Only during royal ceremonies, officials and ordinary people can have a glimpse of Shenyue Mountain. At other times, Shenyue Mountain is completely covered by a ban, shrouded in a layer of light clouds and mist, obscuring the entire view of Shenyue Mountain, making it difficult to see clearly. .
Cheng Guang was dragged out of bed by Cheng Zhihai and Wu Yuemei early in the morning, and climbed up to Shenyue Mountain early on the day of the royal ceremony.
The first thing that catches the eye is an endless stretch of mountains.
The mountain peaks are verdant, with clouds and mist lingering around them, like a fairyland.
The ancient trees in the mountains are towering, the forest is vast, the fresh air is refreshing, and the energy content seems to be much higher than outside.
Traveling along the mountain road, you will encounter some ancient houses from time to time. They have gone through vicissitudes of life, but they are still standing, seeming to tell the story of the magnificent history of the Zhou Dynasty for thousands of years.
There is a huge temple at the top of the mountain. The temple is solemn and colorful.
It was the place where the royal family held sacrificial ceremonies.
Cheng Guang was just a relative and could only watch from the outside. No one could go in except the emperor and some princes and princesses.
In addition, Cheng Guang was among the first group of people who arrived at Shenyue Mountain early.
Together with a group of police officers from the Lantern Division who are responsible for security work, they can be regarded as the vanguard force.
Most of the remaining people, including the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty, Queen Wang, Queen Mother Li, Wu Ling, and all the officials came one by one from behind.
Wu Yuemei also followed them, only Cheng Zhihai took Cheng Guang up to Shenyue Mountain first.
After Cheng Zhihai brought Cheng Guang to a location, he said with a cautious face: "Guang'er, no matter what happens later, you will stay here. Don't move around at will. I think the movement will not be small, but we will control it." middle."
"Don't panic. I will arrange for you some silver lantern agents to guard you. They are all strong men of the sixth and seventh grades. In addition, this is an opportunity to show your sainthood in front of others. I can kill as many rebellious officials as I can. I can't. Just hide here, understand?”
Cheng Guang nodded slightly, looking like he was very sensible.
Cheng Zhihai was also worried about Cheng Guang, so he came over to remind him.
Based on his understanding of Cheng Guang, Cheng Guang would not do such risky things.
So he left quickly.
Up and down Mount Shenyue, a majestic atmosphere filled the air. Many arresters holding lamps were arranged in sequence from the top of the mountain to the foot of the mountain.
In addition to the policemen from the Deng-Zhou Division, the Forbidden Army in the Imperial Palace of the Great Zhou Dynasty, as well as some strong men from the martial arts academy, were temporarily recruited to take charge of security work.
All this was not specially arranged because the Emperor of Zhou knew that King Nanming missed the prince, but it was the same as before.
It can be seen how much the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty attaches great importance to this annual royal ceremony.
Royal ceremonies are not only a way to comfort the spirits of ancestors, but also a good opportunity to show the majesty of the royal family to the world.
Cheng Guang stood by a pavilion halfway up the mountain. Several silver lantern agents stood respectfully beside him, looking at the appearance of the Zhou Imperial Palace in the distance.
At this moment.
clang--
clang--
clang--
Three chimes of bells came from the temple at the top of Shenyue Mountain, and a brilliant light slowly bloomed, illuminating the sky and thousands of households in Kyoto.
Suddenly, everyone felt the mighty imperial power.
Cheng Guang raised his eyes slightly, looking at the brilliant light above his head, and a faint pressure enveloped his heart.
"The royal ceremony has begun."
Cheng Guang muttered something silently in his mind, and then turned his attention to the Great Zhou Palace.
Under the attention of the people of Kyoto.
The gate to the imperial city is open.
In the solemn and melodious bells.
The Emperor of Zhou Dynasty, wearing a dragon robe and holding a scepter in hand, led all the officials out of the magnificent palace.
The emperor's face was serious and sacred, his hair was fluttering in the breeze, and half of his forehead was white, which made him even more majestic.
As he walked through the air, he seemed to interact with the vitality between heaven and earth.
Behind him, there were a group of royal family members, including Queen Mother Li, Queen Wang, Wu Yuemei, King Nanming, and a group of princes and princesses, among whom Cheng Guang also saw Wu Ling.
After not seeing each other for many days, Wu Ling seems to have become more confident.
She was wearing a light blue symmetrical waist-cinching skirt, with water-colored jasmine light sleeves fully opened, three thousand green silk tied into a loose bun, and a painted silver belt casually put on.
The waist is loosely tied with an ink-colored palace lining, and a simple flying butterfly hugging silver floral Huasheng is inserted sideways. The light-colored tassels fall casually, causing ripples in the wind. There is still a little cinnabar between the eyebrows. , Pingting's graceful figure.
Her beautiful face, her self-confidence, and a bit of nobility are all mixed in. You can’t see much of the original little white rabbit anymore.
hiss……
This girl has changed a lot inexplicably.
Was the Emperor of Zhou so good at cultivating people?
Or is it that power nourishes people?
Cheng Guang's eyes narrowed slightly. As Emperor Zhou and his party gradually approached, he looked at Wu Ling and couldn't tell what kind of cultivation she had at this time.
Cheng Guang was slightly shocked.
This is outrageous.
He is a bug-level being with the bloodline of the ancient Daxia royal family. This girl’s cultivation has increased and she is not weaker than me?
Is it a fourth-grade out-of-body realm?
or higher?
Cheng Guang looked at Wu Ling and couldn't tell how strong this girl was, and just felt a little powerless.
Sure enough, the future Empress of Zhou Dynasty is not such a simple character after all.
If you want to avenge the humiliation of the arm-wrestling, it is probably not possible now.
When Cheng Guang looked at Wu Ling, Wu Ling seemed to also see Cheng Guang.
The moment his eyes fell on Cheng Guang, a little joy emerged in his bright eyes, and the majestic and noble aura on his face instantly collapsed. He wanted to run over and say hello to Cheng Guang, but the situation around him did not allow it.
So he just blinked at Cheng Guang and stuck out his tongue playfully.
Cheng Guang: "..."
What is this girl doing?
A royal festival.
On such a solemn occasion, you, a prince, stick out your tongue for me to play with, right?
Cheng Guang wanted to cover his old heart, but the elderly couldn't stand this stimulation.
Emperor Zhou noticed Wu Ling's actions, glanced at Cheng Guang, returned his gaze, and walked towards the temple on the top of the mountain.
Cheng Guang's eyes also moved away from Wu Ling and fell on the royal family members around him.
Wu Yuemei was among them, looking at Cheng Guang and smiling gently at him.
It seemed as if his eyes had never left Cheng Guang's body since just now.
It wasn't until Wu Yuemei's figure passed by Cheng Guang that Wu Yuemei reluctantly looked away from Cheng Guang.
Cheng Guang felt that his old heart couldn't bear it anymore.
That's all for Wu Ling, why is Wu Yuemei like this?It's not like I haven't seen this before.
Inexplicably, it still reminds me of the sense of instant vision parents had when watching their children enter the stadium during sports games in previous lives.
Cheng Guang took one last look at King Nanming among the crowd.
Because there was Princess Nanming beside him, Cheng Guang recognized her at a glance.
This King Nanming is not ugly, he is a handsome old man.
In his previous life, he would have been an uncle-level player who could charm a lot of girls to death.
It's a pity that he is the sixth child.
Princess Nanming was very dignified at this time. She finally discovered the clues about the princess's stockings. After taking them off, the impact could not be eliminated for a while, and she could only maintain her cold and noble feeling.
When he noticed Cheng Guang's gaze, he quietly turned his head and rolled his eyes at Cheng Guang.
I just think this person is so annoying.
Cheng Guang smiled and ignored Princess Nanming.
He is now a guard.
After the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty, all the officials lowered their eyebrows and followed them humbly, not daring to slack off in the slightest.
Their team was vast, and at the front was a guard of honor dressed in brocade robes and embroidered robes. They held spears and iron halberds and walked in uniform steps.Then came the emperor's personal guards. They were wearing black black armor, with sharp gleams in their eyes and a terrifying aura all over their bodies.
When the team arrived at the temple, a fairy-filled rainbow suddenly burst across the sky from the brilliant light blooming above the temple, as if the gods between heaven and earth were blessing the royal ceremony.
All the officials looked up one after another, with surprise and awe in their eyes.
Emperor Zhou also stopped, looked up at the rainbow, took a deep breath, and then continued on.
Following the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty, he arrived in front of the temple.
There is a mysterious and sacred atmosphere in the surrounding air.
On the buildings on both sides of the road, cranes were flying in the air holding fairy grass in their mouths.
The officials and ministers were not qualified to enter the temple, so they stopped in front of the temple.
They were kneeling on both sides of the road.
At the foot of the mountain, many lantern-wielding officers, police officers, and imperial guards knelt down.
Cheng Guang also knelt down quietly. He couldn't make a conspicuous bag at this time.
The Emperor of Zhou entered the temple.
The figure became indistinct, as tall as a god, unable to be looked directly at.
Everyone could only see the slightly hazy figure of Emperor Zhou.
Suddenly, a majestic voice slowly sounded, the energy was so powerful that the sound shook the sky.
"The vastness of heaven and earth."
"The Sacred Ceremony."
"The ancestors' spirits are here."
"Bless me royally."
"May I have a prosperous Great Zhou Dynasty and peace and prosperity for the country and the people."
The voice of the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty was deep and powerful, full of majesty, and his tone was steady and deep. Every word was neither slow nor slow, neither urgent nor slow, but it revealed his sincerity.
He longed for Dazhou to get better.
He longed for the prosperity of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
He longs for...
The people of Dazhou can live a stable life.
He desires even more...
Wu's Great Zhou Dynasty will always be prosperous.
Cheng Guang was listening on the mountainside. Although he couldn't see the face of Emperor Zhou clearly, he could foresee that Emperor Zhou must be particularly sincere at this time. He prayed to his ancestors and ancestors to bless Zhou and recognized that he was not a good person. The eldest son of the Emperor of Zhou.
The reason why the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty has been working diligently since he ascended the throne may be because he didn't want to face his ancestors shamelessly when he was under the Nine Springs one day.
While Cheng Guang was thinking, he suddenly felt wary.
"boom!!!!!"
A pillar of vitality light containing a terrifying aura erupted from the sky above the temple.
"coming!"
Cheng Guang's eyes narrowed slightly, with a slight smile on his lips.
"Okay, okay, he is really the Demon Emperor!"
