son, stop

thump—

thump—

The morning bell rang nine times, and in the Zhengyuan Hall in the majestic imperial city, the civil and military officials were separated from left to right.

Before the Panlong Shadow Wall, the little emperor was wearing a black and yellow dragon robe, and was already sitting on the dragon chair, looking at the bead curtain next to him from time to time.

After the bead curtain, Jiang Yi sat quietly, her vermilion lip makeup was quite gorgeous, and she used the rouge she had just received the day before yesterday, which was slightly inconsistent with the solemn clothes, but no one could see it because of the bead curtain.

Although the makeup is exquisite, Jiang Yi's complexion does not look very good.

The night before yesterday, another beast appeared on Xinghua Street, and the matter reached Jiang Yi's ears within half an hour.

Although the ferocious beast died suddenly and did not hurt the people, it obviously cannot be regarded as not happening.

The courtiers have been holding on to this matter at the morning court meetings for the past two days, basically from the previous court to the scattered court, and the same is true today.

Jiang Yi sat down for only a moment, and some of the officials standing in the courtroom came out one after another:

"Your Majesty, although the beasts that appeared on Xinghua Street did not harm the people, Xinghua Street is in the hinterland of the capital, only half a mile away from the imperial city."

"The arrest department is under the personal control of the eldest princess. It should have fulfilled the responsibility of patrolling, but it has repeatedly made mistakes."

"Your Majesty, ferocious beasts have repeatedly committed crimes, and the people are panic-stricken. Qihuang Valley enjoys the incense of all people, and Yue Pingyang has been appointed a national teacher, but he has done nothing."

There was an endless stream of courtiers who wrote the letter.

Jiang Yi listened quietly, and could only listen quietly, unable to explain at all.

She personally administered the arrest, and the person who used it was also her own confidant. She had already ordered strict guards against it, but these beasts, like those who appeared out of thin air, had no trace at all.

As for Xihuanggu, she had asked many times, but the answer she got had no clue.

Jiang Yi has been cultivating in Xihuang Valley for many years, and she believes in several uncles, and even more in her own aunt.

Every time when this happens, Jiang Yi feels haggard, but she has to cheer up, because she is sitting in this position, with the responsibility on her shoulders, she can't cry and complain to people like ordinary girls, and there is no one. listen to her complain.

The ministers in the court, after talking for a long time, the prime minister Li Jingsi standing at the forefront, suppressing the noise of the ministers, stepped forward and said:

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty the eldest princess, the national teacher has not shown up for two years. Now the beasts around the capital have repeatedly committed crimes, and the several masters of the Phoenix Valley have done nothing. If this continues, the hearts of the people will inevitably be scattered. Ask the national teacher to come out of the mountain and discuss this matter with the ministers? If there is really a problem, it is better for the ministers to pool their ideas, rather than sit and watch the beasts harm the people and do nothing."

"Li Xiang's words are justified. I also hope that Her Royal Highness can invite the national teacher to come out of the mountain and come to the store to explain."

"I also hope that Her Royal Highness, please invite the national teacher to come out of the mountain"

The chorus continued.

Jiang Yi clenched the corners of her skirt and wanted to respond, but she didn't know how to respond.

She has asked her many times, but Xihuanggu declined on the grounds that the retreat could not be disturbed.

Jiang Yi used this excuse to explain at first, but now she doesn't even believe it herself.

But Jiang Yi didn't dare to confirm that the national teacher was ill, because Xihuang Valley was her biggest backer. Without the tyrannical national teacher, it would be a problem for several teachers to keep the family business, let alone protect their sister. Brother, what if a group of ministers force the palace and the vassal king to rebel?

Listening to the approval of the ministers, Jiang Yi frowned, and just as she was about to continue to forcibly prevaricate the past on the grounds of the national teacher's retreat, there was suddenly a crane roar outside the solemn hall.

"Wow—"

The cry was clear and ethereal, as if it was coming from the nine heavens, and the sound of spreading wings could be heard faintly.

The civil and military officials in the Zhengyuan Hall were silent for a while, and the Prime Minister Li Jingsi shivered even more, a little unbelievable.

Jiang Yi was also taken aback for a moment, her eyes full of joy.

The national teacher, Yue Pingyang, although he was a master of the sixth level of Linggu, he was still unable to fly, and there was a white crane that was specially used as a mount.

Jiang Yi thought that the national teacher, who hadn't shown up for two years, was really out of the mountains, so she quickly stood up and opened the bead curtain, and the ministers also looked back.

What everyone did not expect was that only a small crane fell at the door of the majestic hall, with white fur and black feathers like ink. Although it was full of aura, it was not ordinary at first glance, but it certainly couldn't ride a human.

The white crane spread its wings and walked, holding a small package on the crane's feet, flew straight into the hall, came to the imperial desk in front of the dragon chair, put down the package, and folded and flew out of the hall, never to return.

""

Manchao Wenwu stared blankly, silent for a while.

Seeing that it was not the national teacher who came, Li Jingsi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He took a step forward and said doubtfully:

"This crane seems to be an immortal beast that shocked the terrace. The old minister during the period of the late emperor had seen it once, but the master of the fairy family, what news did you send?"

Jiang Yin was only twenty years old. She had heard about the ancestors of Xihuang Valley for a long time, but she must have never seen it with her own eyes. It was the first time she received a message from Jing Terrace, and she was a little scared.She hurriedly walked over to her brother and opened the package, only to find a wooden box inside, with the sign of the balcony engraved on it - 'The Crane Holds the Book'.

Jiang Yi opened the box carefully, and what caught her eye were three jade plaques and a letter. The jade plaque also had the symbol of a crane holding a book.

Jiang Yi picked up the envelope, opened it and looked at it, her expression was first surprised, and then a little disappointed.

The ministers noticed the change in the eldest princess' expression and asked:

"Princess, what did the letter say?"

Jiang Yi read the letter carefully and said:

"A letter from Jing Terrace, saying that the nine sects exchanged students in Linyuan City, I have no wars near Jiazi, and I have the ability to educate the people, so I gave me three places, let me choose the best talents as soon as possible, and send them to Jing. On the terrace, go with the disciples."

The courtiers who were in charge of the secular people knew that Linyuan City was the capital of the Dayan Emperor, but they didn't really know much about the affairs of these immortal families, and for a while they didn't understand how great a gift this was.

Jiang Yi, as a practitioner, has been in Xihuang Valley for many years, but he has learned a little from the teacher's mouth.

The nine sects in the south are all wealthy families of immortals, and the number of cultivation paths is different. There are always some good seedlings in their jurisdiction, which are not suitable for their own sect’s exercises; in order to prevent the resources from flowing out or being wasted, the nine sects will regularly exchange students with each other, by the way. Xiao Zongmen and Sanxiu opened a way to go ashore.

The sphere of influence of the Nine Sects is more than [-] miles, and the number of people who want to enter the territory is even more uncountable. Master Zheng, who is in the living room of the Phoenix Valley, wanted to enter the country back then, and was seriously injured when he was fighting for it.

And if you are a disciple of the nine sects, you can skip the layers of screening and go directly to the final stage, and let the seniors of the nine sects choose; because they are exchanged with each other, they will definitely accept it, and the result is the inner sect of the nine sects.

You must know that in the past years, the disciples who spent money to climb relationships and sent them to Jingtai only started from the outer door. This time, they gave three places directly, which is no less than directly giving the monks of the Great Dan Dynasty three avenues to the sky.

Jiang Yi is also a practitioner, and she is so jealous of this news that she doesn't even want to be the princess regent. After all, if she becomes an inner sect of the Nine Sects, and she has become an artist in the future, who would dare to touch her brother?

It's a pity that there was a requirement in the letter, and it was very strict, it must be 'male, under the age of 30, and the realm exceeds the eighth level of Qi training'.

Among the three conditions, Jiang Yi only reached the age of one under 30, so she will definitely not be able to go. At this moment, she can only comfort herself by helping her younger brother to deal with the government affairs.
