The commotion in the outside world did not affect the palace.
After all, the Imperial Palace was built by the Great Zhou Taizu back then, so it naturally had its own mystical aspects.
The royal court was the most solemn place in the world, and it could not tolerate any noise from the outside world. It was completely isolated from the outside world.
If it was any other time, the eunuchs and guards outside might have come to report.
However, who would dare to act rashly on such an occasion?
As a result, the people in the royal court had no idea what was happening outside.
But that was not important.
More importantly, the scholarly atmosphere of the entire court boiled with Wang Ying's words.
"No one knows my name."
"My justice will last forever!"
"Furthermore, Qiyue is nameless, history is proof, mountains and rivers are his name!”
These three sentences kept echoing in their minds, shaking their literary courage and causing their literary qi to churn endlessly!
This was the Holy Word!
The civil officials could not describe the shock in their hearts with words.
They could not help but look at Wang Ying with reverence.
10,000 years ago, the Great Ancestor of the Great Zhou Dynasty started from the wilderness. His fist suppressed the mountains and rivers, and he stepped on the eight wastelands. He was extremely domineering.
But he himself was all-encompassing and had a mind like the sea.
Other than the Celestial Sect, which he considered to be the source of trouble and was suppressed, the other orthodoxies were not affected at all.
Hence, 10,000 years ago, a hundred schools of thought were contending, and it could be said to be a resplendent golden age.
Later on, when the Great Ancestor passed away, the Great Zhou Dynasty became weaker with each generation. The immortal sects rose again. On one hand, they took revenge on the Great Zhou Dynasty. On the other hand, they began to suppress the other orthodoxies like in the past.
They only wanted one thing, and that was the supremacy of the Immortal Dao!
The Confucian Sect was one of their main targets.
At the time of Emperor Taizu, there were many great scholars. They stood up and spoke. A pen could determine life and death, and a poem could kill evil spirits.
How glorious was that?
However, two thousand years ago, the Celestial Sect killed the great Confucians and their disciples in a bloody manner, shattering the courage of countless scholars. Most importantly, they sealed the Sacred Institute that had nurtured countless sages and great Confucians.
In this way, the path of the literati was cut off!
This also led to the overall level of scholars now being far inferior to the founding of the country.
Whether it was integrity, morality, or his own cultivation, he was not enough to compete with the immortal sect.
As time passed, the Confucian Sect naturally fell.
This was the reason why the civil officials of the court were so weak.
They had already forgotten how long it had been since they had heard a holy word that could stir up literary energy!
Ever since the Celestial Sect had severed ties with the Confucian Sect, the Confucian Sect had no lack of kowtows and cowards, but there were very few true warriors who dared to speak up for justice.
And today, this warrior had appeared!
"This child's future is limitless. To be able to speak holy words at such a young age, he might be able to change the predicament of our Confucian Sect for two thousand years!”
The civil officials who still had their consciences showed "light" in their numb eyes again.
They looked at Wang Ying as if they had seen hope.
No one else could sense the thoughts of the civil officials, but Cao Meng was still greatly shocked.
He looked at Wang Ying and was actually speechless for a moment.
This was a righteous man!
Cao Meng had once been hot-blooded when he was young, but unfortunately, he was already cold and detached. However, Wang Ying's words had stimulated his long-lost passion.
At this moment, he no longer had any killing intent.
My sword doesn't kill true heroes!
He silently stared at Wang Ying. After a moment, he spoke again.
"The situation of the Great Zhou is like yesterday. It's already irreversible. Your honor's integrity makes me sigh in admiration.”
"I'm afraid there's no one like you in this world. If you die, it'll be a loss to the world.”
"So why should we be buried with the Great Zhou? If you're willing, why don't you become an official in Wei? I'll definitely welcome you and treat you with a high position!”
Cao Meng's love for talent was unprecedentedly inflated.
Obviously, he had another thought.
His words were sincere, and he even cupped his hands and bowed to Wang Ying!
This scene moved everyone.
The other five kings had their own thoughts, but they could understand Cao Meng.
As a ruler, who wouldn't want to have a true hero like Wang Ying?
However, Ji Mingyue, who was sitting on the dragon throne, was not in the mood.
He gritted his teeth in anger.
"You actually dare to poach my people!"
His anger was even greater than when he was forced to abdicate!
Cao Meng was really too arrogant. In front of him, he actually said that the Great Zhou was already in decline and would be finished sooner or later.
Although this was the truth.
But you said it so openly, it's simply impudent to the extreme!
If word got out, the world would definitely curse at him.
After all, although everyone knew what was going on, they couldn't say it out loud.
Did Cao Meng not know the consequences?
He knew!
But he still said that.
What was this?
This was sincerity!
In order to recruit Wang Ying, he was extremely sincere.
It wasn't easy to have a loyal minister. Was he going to be poached away?
Ji Mingyue was pessimistic.
To be honest, the Great Zhou was a broken ship now. How could it compare to the Wei Kingdom?
In the past, once the Great Zhou was destroyed, the Wei Kingdom was the number one seed to fight for the world. If he joined the Wei Kingdom now, he might be able to obtain the merit of following the dragon in the future!
From this point of view, the Great Zhou was almost uncompetitive.
Ji Mingyue was speechless.
The current situation of the Great Zhou Dynasty made him not have the slightest confidence. He could not promise Wang Ying anything.
He looked at Wang Ying nervously, waiting for his decision.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on Wang Ying.
No one had expected that a mere official would become the main character of this court meeting.
However, Wang Ying was not in a good mood at all.
It could even be described as terrible.
He stared at Cao Meng, his heart racing.
What's going on, little brother?
You won't kill me?
Are you crazy?
This bro has been acting tough for so long, hoping that you would give me a quick death. In the end, you don't want to kill me, but you want to recruit me?
Wang Ying felt that Cao Meng was simply toxic!
No!
You have to kill me!
What Wei Country? What Great Zhou? What use was that to Wang Ying!
He had long given up on working hard. He only wanted to die as soon as possible and then happily become the Heavenly Emperor.
Therefore, he shook his head and refused without hesitation.
"I won't go to Wei Country. You'd better kill me!”
Cao Meng said anxiously.
"Milord, why must you be so stubborn? The Son of Heaven is muddle-headed and cowardly. How can he compare to this king?”
Hearing this, Wang Ying sneered and turned to look at Tian Zi.
"I was born poor and studied hard for more than ten years. After passing the imperial examination, I passed the imperial examination and became an official.”
"I'm here to report your intentions on the Golden Platform and help Jade Dragon die for you!”
"So, if you want to kill me, then kill me. I will never betray my country!”
