Too Reckless

Chapter 38: Crane holding a book

thump—

thump—

The morning bell rang nine times, and in the Zhengyuan Hall in the majestic imperial city, the civil and military officials were divided to the left and 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 beside 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 received just the day before yesterday, which was slightly inconsistent with her solemn clothes, but it was blocked by the bead curtain, so no one could see it.

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 inexplicably without harming the people, it obviously cannot be regarded as not happening.

During the morning court meeting in the past two days, the courtiers have been holding on to this matter, 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 stood up one after another:

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

"The arresting department is under the jurisdiction of the eldest princess. She should have done her duty of patrolling, but it has repeatedly made mistakes..."

"Your Majesty, the vicious beasts have repeatedly committed crimes, the people are in a state of anxiety, the Huhuang Valley enjoys the incense of the people, and Yue Pingyang has been awarded the title of national teacher, but he has done nothing..."

There is an endless stream of courtiers who have written and started the performance.

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, just like they appeared out of nowhere, had no trace at all.

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

Jiang Yi has been cultivating in Xihuang Valley for many years. She believes in several uncles, and even more in her own aunt. She will not neglect her duties and let the beasts make trouble.

Every time 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 an ordinary girl, and no one is there. 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 vicious beasts around the capital have repeatedly committed crimes, and the several masters in the Phoenix Valley have done nothing. If this continues, the hearts of the people will inevitably be disintegrated. 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 remarks are reasonable, and I hope that Her Royal Highness, the princess, can invite the national teacher to come out and talk to the store."

"I also hope that Her Royal Highness Princess, 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 she could not be disturbed in retreat.

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 Xihuanggu was her biggest support. If there was no such a strong 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?

Hearing the approval of the ministers, Jiang Yi frowned, and was about to continue to use the national teacher's retreat as an excuse to forcibly prevaricate it, when a crane roar suddenly came from 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 still 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, so he had 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, had really come out, so she quickly stood up and opened the bead curtain, and the ministers also looked back.

But what everyone didn't expect was that at the entrance of the towering hall, only a small crane fell, 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 top of the crane's feet, and flew straight into the main hall. It came to the imperial desk in front of the dragon chair. After putting down the package, it folded and flew out of the main hall, never to return.

"…"

Manchao Wenwu stared blankly, silent for a while.

Seeing that it was not the national teacher, 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 frightened the terrace. The old minister of the late emperor had seen it once, but the master of the Xian family, what news did you send?"

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

Jiang Yi carefully opened the box, and caught sight of three jade plaques and a letter. The jade plaque also had the symbol of a crane holding a book. The shape was exactly the same as the identity plaque of Xihuang Valley, but the material was vastly different.

Jiang Yi picked up the envelope, unfolded it and looked at it, her expression was first surprised, 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 the terrace, saying that the nine sects exchanged students in Linyuan City, I have no wars near Jiazi, and I have the power to educate the people, so I gave me three places, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Let me choose the best as soon as possible. Select good talents, send them to Jing Terrace, and go with the disciples."

All of them were officials who were in charge of the secular people. They knew that Linyuan City was the capital of the Great Yan Emperor, but they didn't know much about the affairs of these immortal families. For a while, they didn't understand how great a gift this was.

As a practitioner, Jiang Yi has been in Xihuang Valley for many years, but she 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 the 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 10,000 miles, and the number of people who want to enter the territory is even more uncountable. Master Zheng of the living room of Xihuang Valley wanted to enter the country back then, and he 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 the disciples who spent money to build relationships in Qihuang Valley and sent them to Jingtai only started from the outer gate. This time, they gave three places directly, which is no less than directly giving the Great Dan Dynasty cultivator three avenues to the sky.

Jiang Yi is also a practitioner. 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 becomes an artist in the future, who would dare to touch her brother?

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

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