The sacred capital of the Sui Dynasty.
In the imperial study room.
Chen Jinghuai sat behind the desk, his eyes were calm, neither visible nor audible, like a dormant lion about to pounce on its prey, but also like an ordinary person, amiable and amiable. Looking at the Imperial Master, Imperial Master and others below him, he expressed his indifferent expression. And his strong lips were slightly raised, and he said: "What do you think of the meeting between the two dynasties?"
Imperial Master Cao Chonglin looked at his nose and heart, but did not speak to him immediately.
Chu Chunqiu, the head of the Qingxuan Department, stepped forward and said: "Reporting to your majesty, Xi Tan obviously relied on the Chief Priest of Fenglin Academy to defeat Han Yan, just like the sword master once wielded a sword to suppress the world, and Lu Jianluan took advantage of it. The imperial commander's personal expedition is obviously to suppress the younger generation of our court, and his heart is to be punished."
The emperor's master said calmly: "The meeting between the younger generation is not included in the hundred-year contract regulations, so it cannot be regarded as a breach of contract. Just as Chu Shoutun said, Xitan wants to overpower the younger generation of my dynasty, and he is very confident that no one can win that fight." The president of the academy said that if we want to take over, we must understand this person better and be confident that we can win, otherwise we will lose. Rejecting the two dynasties is also an option. It just depends on which one is worse: refusing to fight or accepting to lose."
The Venerable Zhu Yuxue of the Shendu Martial Temple fought with his fists and said loudly: "Rejection means defeat without a fight, which will make me lose face to the younger generation. When they heard about this, they all became high-spirited. If I kill them on my own, Xi Tan sneered again, "How will the younger generation deal with themselves? They will suffer huge humiliation, so they should fight back with all their strength."
Zhang Zhijing, the number one warrior in the Sui Dynasty and the leader of the Wushen Temple, was the most domineering. Zhu Yuxue, who was in charge of the Wushen Temple in Shendu on behalf of the leader, was naturally also very impressive. He and Xue
The gentleman is similar, he looks very elegant on the surface, but in fact he speaks with his fists.
A civil official said: "Although that is the case, after accepting it, they faced a disastrous defeat. They felt no better. The Academy Master can defeat Han Yan. Who among the younger generation in our court can defeat her?"
There are those who insist on fighting or retreating and argue with each other, while there are also those who are neutral who think that both will work, but neither will work. In the final analysis, who can hope to defeat the chief magistrate of Fenglin Academy.
Chen Jinghuai remained silent and allowed them to argue. Then he looked at Cao Chonglin, who had not spoken, and asked, "What do you think of the Imperial Master?"
Cao Chonglin raised his eyes and smiled, and said: "As far as I know, the ability of the chief edict of Xitan Fenglin Academy is extraordinary. It can be said that he is the best among the younger generations of the two dynasties, but he may not be without the strength to fight. In addition to being in Panmen He Fushe, one of them must join the battle."
Chen Jinghuai asked curiously: "Who is he?"
Cao Chonglin said: "The young Marquis of Xunyang, Jiang Wang."
There was a sudden silence in the hall.
Some people know who Jiang Wang is, while others don't. The former is looking at Chen Jinghuai's face, while the latter is wondering who this is? He actually has more hope of beating Xi Tan than Han Yan and He Fushe?
Hearing Jiang Wang's name, Chen Jinghuai's expression did not change, "Since the Imperial Preceptor thinks it is feasible, let the Imperial Preceptor make arrangements for this matter."
Cao Chonglin nodded slightly, looked around, and said: "The two dynasties will each take the number of nine. In addition to Jiang Wang, Han Yan, and He Fushe, do you have any suitable candidates? Although I think the three of them are enough. The rest is just a matter of gathering the number of people.”
The emperor's master thought of the girl in red who had said that she should follow the rules, but because Sui Tan was across the sea of naihe, the news was a little
There is a slight obstruction, and the meeting between the two dynasties is already approaching. If I spend more time looking for the hard-to-find person, I'm afraid it will be too late.
Xi Tan was well prepared and deliberately set a tight schedule. In the name of discussion, it was clear that the Sui Dynasty could not refuse. The important thing was that the younger generation who had already learned about the situation would find it difficult to agree that Shendu would refuse the meeting between the two dynasties. .
Just like what the national master said, there are three strongest ones, and the rest are really just to make up the numbers. If the three of them can't win, it's useless to look for anyone else.
The Imperial Master knew very well that His Majesty would not point at Mantang Mountain, and Li Fusheng, who was at the forefront of the Shanze tribe, was unlikely to fight, so he suggested: "You Xuanzhi, Xiao Shinian and Mo Tiechui are the top three in the Autumn Festival. Ready-made, two Snow Bathing Realm masters and one Fifth Realm Grandmaster are qualified."
Zhu Yuxue didn't have any objections, because he really didn't expect that among the young warriors, there was someone more suitable than the hammer girl.
As of now, there is no doubt that Hammer Girl is the youngest Grandmaster Warrior.
But Chu Chunqiu had some opinions, "I think Xiao Shinian is not suitable. According to the formation of Wutiao City in Longchan, we can basically conclude that Xiao Shinian came from Wutiao City, but he behaved sneakily in Shendu these days, like Are you looking for something? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has said that if you look at Wutiao City, Xiao Shinian will not be able to represent the Sui Dynasty at this moment."
The Imperial Master frowned slightly, but didn't say anything.
No one has expressed this, but someone has once again suggested one person, "Perhaps that Xuan Su in Baoping Alley can also do it. Although he is only at the peak of Dongming, his performance can be seen by everyone. Give him a representative of the Great Sui Dynasty." There’s a chance.”
Chu Chunqiu continued: "Pei Junran from the Qingxuan Department can participate in the battle."
Leave aside no
Xiao Shinian confirmed that there were seven people.
National Preceptor Cao Chonglin said casually: "Sword God Lin Xizhi's disciple Xie Wuxing can be the eighth person."
This clearly excludes Xiao Shinian.
Some people had something to say, thinking that the meeting between the two dynasties was of great importance, and Xiao Shinian was more suitable than Xuan Su. They felt that Chu Chunqiu's reasons for denying it were not sufficient, but as soon as the Imperial Master said this, they all shut up.
Chen Jinghuai asked: "Who will be the last choice?"
Except for Jiang Wang, who is in Longchan, and Xie Wuxing and He Fushe, who is in Kutan, the rest were all chosen in the capital city, purely based on nearby materials. However, no one could decide who to choose for the last one.
Someone wanted to try to mention Xiao Shinian again, but before he could speak, the servant outside the imperial study respectfully conveyed a message, "Your Majesty, the eldest princess has said that one person from the house can represent the Sui Dynasty in the war between the two dynasties."
Speaking of the eldest princess's house, everyone's first thought was to cause trouble for Jing Shuni.
The next moment I thought, isn’t this ridiculous?
Chen Jinghuai already agreed: "Yes!"
The imperial study room suddenly became silent.
Your Majesty loves the eldest princess to an incredible extent.
It is obviously a very important meeting between the two dynasties. Since you accept it, you must win. Why now, it suddenly feels like it is just an insignificant matter?
Zhu Yuxue was stunned for a moment, suddenly realized something, and breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's perfect for the girl from the eldest princess's house to come forward."
Both the Imperial Master and the Imperial Master remained calm.
The others looked at Zhu Yuxue who was smiling and realized that this so-called girl was definitely not Shu Ni, but who could she be?
...
Today we have finalized the candidates and will immediately go to Ku Tan Pan Sect.
He Fushe is at Panmen. Xie Wu can take him with him on the way. The only troublesome thing is Jiang Wang.
He left it to the prince Chen Futu who was in Longchan.
Girl Iron Hammer, who had just received the order in Baoping Alley, looked around and saw that Xuan Su in the courtyard next door had packed up and was ready to go. She looked at Xiao Shinian with some dissatisfaction and said, "That guy can go, why not let you go?" ?”
Xiao Shinian played with the tea set expressionlessly and said, "You already know what happened last time. Don't underestimate Xuan Su. The palace will naturally consider it."
Girl Iron Hammer said: "I don't have any objections to Xuan Su, but that guy You Xuanzhi is also going. No matter what the reason is, you shouldn't be kicked out. If that's the case, I won't go either."
Girl Hammer was keen on things like fighting, and she was excited the moment she got the order. Xiao Shinian knew it, so he smiled and said, "I told you, I come here for a purpose." , it is certainly a good thing for me to stay in the capital of Gods. It is said that Jiang Wang is among the nine, so you won’t have no one to help you, this is a good opportunity for you to make a name for yourself.”
The Hammer girl was very hesitant and lowered her head in silence.
Xiao Shinian rubbed her head and said, "I will wait for you to return with a great victory in the city of Gods."
At this time, a knock on the door suddenly sounded.
Before Xiao Shinian could get up, the courtyard door had been pushed open, and Zhao Si and Sun Qingyai came in.
They were holding a bunch of talismans in their arms. Zhao Si panted and said: "These are the talismans that I have drawn with great pains after being taught by my teacher since I came to the capital of the gods. They are quite powerful. You can use them and give them to Jiang Wang by the way." A few more, I'm afraid he'll be beaten to death."
Xiao Shiyang took the talisman from the Iron Hammer girl and said, "Thank you very much."
Zhao Si smiled and said: "Don't save it for me. Throw it out as hard as you can when needed. Except for this
Some of them, I also filled three storage magic weapons, which is enough for you to throw away all day long. "
The Hammer Girl's mood changed slightly because of this, and she said in shock: "You are too arrogant."
Zhao Si threw three jade pots the size of his thumb to her and said, "If I had known about this earlier, I would have drawn more in advance. Now these are the only ones I can take out."
In the next courtyard, Xuan Su's head popped up and he said coldly: "It's time to go."
Xiao Shinian immediately nodded towards the hammer girl.
Zhao Bang greeted Xuan Su enthusiastically, "If you want to use the talisman then, just ask her for it."
Xuan Su was stunned for a moment, then left the courtyard wall with a somewhat unnatural look on his face.
Zhao Si didn't care either.
In front of the city of Shendu, You Xuanzhi and Pei Junran were already waiting. The latter stayed in the corner with his head lowered, complaining to Chu Chunqiu in her heart that she was worried about whether she could survive or even worry about going to Kutanpanmen with so many people. Will someone be killed directly by me?
She could only hope that no one would challenge her.
In the Imperial Prefect's Mansion, Han Yan dressed in white and was about to go out.
Cao Chonglin said helplessly: "Why don't you say hello?"
Han Yan stopped, looked at his teacher and junior sister, and said calmly: "I'm leaving."
Lu Xiuxiu chuckled lightly and said, "Senior brother, please pay attention to safety."
Han Yan looked at her for a moment and hummed.
This is purely literal concern, without any other metaphors. Han Yan can naturally hear it, not to mention that he doesn't care about such things at all.
There is the chief magistrate of Fenglin Academy on the other side of Xitan. Everyone knows that he lost to the opponent. He doesn't care what the Sui people think, nor does he care what the Qin people might do by then.
There will be cynicism.
Under the gaze of Cao Chonglin and Lu Xiuxiu, Han Yan walked out of the Imperial Master's Mansion.
At a certain section of the road, he looked slightly sideways. In the direction of the Princess's Mansion, a cold-looking girl stepped out of the street.
