Chapter 203: The Top of the Great Hall
After Gao Yuanhu left, Mu Changyan let out a long sigh of relief, waved his hand and motioned for everyone around him to retreat, leaving only An Chengli and An Zheng. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"These people are getting more and more excessive. ā
Mu Changyan made himself more comfortable in the chair, almost curled up into the wide chair. It was as if he was cold, or because he felt extremely unsteady. Maybe only a more solid back can make him feel a little comforted.
"Anzheng. ā
"In. ā
"Don't care too much, in fact, in the whole big chessboard, they are just using you to test Lone's bottom line. The affairs of the military department are like a hole in a causeway that they have poked open, and then they will think, since the hole has been pierced, can they completely tear down the causeway?"
"If you are alone, then what does this mean? It means that Gu has completely succumbed, and even people like the Gao family dare to jump on top of Gu's head. They will feel that Lone has given up, so they will do whatever they want more and more in the future. ā
An argued: "The minister didn't expect so much. ā
Mu Changyan smiled: "You are simple and direct, this is a good thing." It means that although you have entered this big dye vat, you have not been polluted after all. Which of the things you have done since you entered Beijing is not reckless and impulsive enough? What you value is your simplicity and directness. ā
Mu Changyan raised his head and looked at the sky: "Every man has his own ambitions, right? When I was a teenager, I chatted with my eldest brother. He asked me what my biggest dream was, and I said to be a person who doesn't have any worries. He laughed and said I hope you can be the person you want to be. ā
Then I asked him, 'What is your greatest ideal?...... The things of the world, the people of the world, all look forward to the great Xi. In addition to Daxi, the kings of other countries only dare to call themselves lonely, and they can only be called ministers to Daxi. His wish is to let Dayan dominate the north one day, and he faces due south, and his words will be called me. ā
An Zheng's heart moved, thinking that Mu Changyan's eldest brother, the former prince of Dayan, was so flamboyant, and he had great ambitions in his heart but didn't know how to cover up, so he couldn't wait to be eliminated by the Queen Mother. If the former prince knew how to be more forbearing, maybe he could finally pull the queen mother out of power completely.
And Mu Changyan is the one who witnessed all this, so he was so forbearant in front of the Queen Mother. He chose a different path from his eldest brother because he left him with enough experience and lessons.
Mu Changyan's idea is to develop silently, and to grasp the strength that can compete with the Queen Mother in forbearance. But now it seems that the Queen Mother has obviously gradually lost interest in him.
"Both of you have the surname An ......"
Mu Changyan said in a somewhat bitter tone: "Lone originally thought that this might be the will of heaven. Send the two of you surnamed Ann to Lonely, and everything will be a little more stable. Now that I think about it, loneliness is just a kind of sustenance in the lack of self-confidence. In the future, all Lone can do is to let you trust Lone people like you and live as well as possible. ā
He looked at An Zheng: "When you chose the Martial Academy, I was afraid that it wasn't because you really wanted to enter the Martial Academy, right?" But even so, you still chose to fight for the reputation of the Martial Academy at this time, which is enough to show that you are a loyal person." According to the saying on the rivers and lakes, it can also be said to be a heavy righteousness. At the moment, there are too few people like you. ā
"There you go. ā
Mu Changyan pointed to the bottom of the city tower: "Today is your world." ā
According to the fist: "The minister retires." ā
Mu Changyan said: "An Chengli, you go below and tell the people in the Ministry of Rites, just say that An Zheng has no opponent in the battle of Chuxiong." Lone allowed him to participate in the battle for the top prize...... Nie Qing was alone, too lonely. ā
When An Zheng walked down from the castle tower, he felt that every step was so heavy. At first, he didn't have a good impression of Mu Changyan, he always felt that Mu Changyan was too cowardly. Now it seems that the things Mu Changyan is carrying are too heavy, which is why he walks so tremblingly and carefully.
Originally, it was harder to go up the city tower than to go down, but when An Zheng came down, he felt that his steps were heavier than when he came up.
Mu Changyan just declared his dignity as the king of Yan to Gao Yuanhu with an almost resolute attitude, but when a king needs to declare his dignity in this way, isn't it the saddest thing?
When An Zheng arrived at Jinting Square to find Nie Qing, Nie Qing was still sitting on the chair and did not move. Contrary to An Zheng, Nie Qing has not been handed over to the court until now.
An Zheng suddenly had some ominous premonitions.
In the battle of Chuxiong, the people of the Gao family dared to intervene directly, allowing him to come to power again and again to accept challenges. And this kind of thing is so obvious, it is obvious that a family like the Gao family no longer takes Dayan's national law seriously. It is enough to show that the strength loyal to Mu Changyan has basically been eradicated by the Queen Mother's people.
The people of the Gao family are just a chess piece, a chess piece that is still being tested by the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother wants to use the Gao family to provoke the national law of Yan State, and what she challenges is also Mu Changyan's last bottom line.
And Nie Qing's side, I'm afraid that he has also suffered unfairness. An Zheng was deliberately arranged for a wheel battle, and Nie Qing has not played until now, perhaps those people didn't want Nie Qing to play at all. They could say that An Zheng's name appeared three times because of the mistake of the officials of the Ministry of Rites, and of course they could also say that Nie Qing's name was not in that box at all.
In the end, if Nie Qing's name was not called, in the end, he would just casually blame this mistake on a petty official of the Ministry of Rites. As for Nie Qing, he lost everything.
"Still waiting?"
Ann asked.
Nie Qing glanced at An Zheng and nodded: "I can only wait." ā
An Zheng was silent for a while and sat beside Nie Qing: "Is this country still the one you love?"
Nie Qing was silent for a longer time, then looked at An Zheng and said solemnly: "Four years ago, when Dean Yan gave us a lesson in person for the first time, he said that there was a famous warrior who once said it. If every soldier is an iron army, he will be invincible. If everyone is an iron man, then the world is righteous. ā
He looked around: "People here may have heard this sentence, but no one cares. I can't make every soldier an iron army, every person can become an iron man, I can only make myself such a person. The army is an iron army, invincible. To be an iron man is just because there is righteousness in his heart. ā
An Zheng sighed: "But sometimes, people like you always seem very lonely. ā
Nie Qing smiled and glanced at An Zheng meaningfully: "You're not the same?"
An Zheng smiled and shook his head: "I'm not you, I know how to be flexible." ā
Nie Qing smiled more relaxedly: "I almost believed it." ā
An Zheng laughed: "I almost believed it myself." ā
Nie Qing laughed for a while and said, "If no one calls my name in the end, and we come on behalf of the Martial Academy but don't even have a chance to play, then after the end, I will challenge the first in the battle of the champions." ā
An Zheng nodded: "Okay." ā
Nie Qing said: "But you and I both know that even if you and I have a chance to play in the battle for the top prize, even if we win, we may be judged to lose by those examiners for various reasons." ā
An Zheng subconsciously looked at the official of the Ministry of Rites who was standing next to the venue with a box beside him, and became more and more disgusted with this rotten Dayan officialdom.
But at this moment, the official of the Ministry of Rites, who looked to be in his thirties and even acted a little stupidly, took out a note from the box: "Next battle, Nie Qing of the Martial Academy." ā
Then he put his hand into the box again, took out the note and looked at it: "His opponent is, Taishang Dojo, Feng Xiuyang." ā
There was an exclamation on the scene!
No one expected that the main event would come so quickly and violently. This year's rules have been changed on an ad hoc basis, and in the past, the contestants went through the primary selection and faced off one by one in order. This year, the Empress Dowager Su wanted to call the shots in everything, and as soon as her brain was hot, she changed the duel to extraction.
But because of this, there is a lot of uncertainty when competing. No one knows if their opponent will be the same person.
Nie Qing paused slightly, then took a deep breath and stood up, he tidied up his clothes, and looked down at An Zheng: "It seems that fate is not full of injustice. ā
Ann Zheng gave a thumbs up: "To win." ā
Nie Qing snorted, and then strode onto the field.
On the side of the Taishang Dojo, everyone's faces were a little weird. The face of one of the Taoist in black robes in charge of the team leader was particularly ugly, and he glared fiercely at the official of the Ministry of Rites who was in charge of drawing the note, as if he was carrying a knife in his eyes. But the official of the Ministry of Rites simply sat there, looking up at Mingyue, who had not yet come to work. The sun was shining in the sky, and the flowers didn't know who they were smiling at.
The man turned back to Feng Xiuyang, whose eyes began to glow, and said, "Something is wrong with this matter, that official of the Ministry of Rites has taken our advantage, he shouldn't have separated you and Nie Qing together." According to the pre-arrangement, Nie Qing will face off against Su Feilun of Dading Academy. It's good that they lose both, and you can win the first place safely. ā
Feng Xiuyang saw Nie Qing striding onto the field, and the brilliance in his eyes became more and more blazing: "Who cares about that number one?"
The black-robed Taoist froze for a moment, and what was he still trying to say, Feng Xiuyang had already swept on.
Feng Xiuyang wore a navy blue robe, his figure was slender and straight, and there was almost no flaw on his face, making him the dream lover of many girls in Fanggu City. Besides, the Dao Sect of Yan Kingdom couldn't help but get married, so I don't know how many people wanted to marry him like crazy.
But this handsome and friendless Taishang Dojo is the first person of the young generation, and he has never had any scandals with any woman, and he has never even been to the Qinglou. Some say he is noble, others say because no woman is worthy of him. Unlike Su Feilun, whose fame spread all over Fanggu City, the rumors about Feng Xiuyang were all news that this genius had easily defeated a challenger.
Feng Xiuyang carried a wooden sword on his back, and Nie Qing carried a black short stick on his back.
These two people stand on the field, no matter how you look at it, they are two types that are extremely handsome. The wind is handsome, chic, and the same as a beautiful son. And Nie Qing is magnificent, majestic, and his whole body is full of the masculinity of a man.
"It didn't come in vain. ā
Feng Xiuyang hugged his fist towards Nie Qing: "Senior Brother Nie, hello." ā
Nie Qing cupped his fists and saluted back: "Senior Brother Feng, you are okay." ā
Feng Xiuyang smiled: "Since four years ago, I have wanted to fight with you. But you also know that the rules of the sect are too much, and they are worried that if I lose, the reputation of the Taishang Dojo will fall. But this has gradually become my inner demon, if I don't fight with you, I won't even be able to sleep well after all. ā
Nie Qing smiled: "Then play more freely." ā
Feng Xiuyang looked around: "Here, you can't have a good time." ā
Nie Qing asked, "So where do you want to fight?"
Feng Xiuyang sighed: "I have to let them watch the fight, and they still want to fight happily, or go there?"
He held out his hand.
Nie Qing looked at it, he was referring to the main hall of Tianji Palace.
