"That's really worth celebrating."
"Yes."
Instantly, voices of agreement filled the air. Everyone was happy that the Emperor had his first child, but the favorite concubine who assassinated the Emperor? What did that have to do with them? The most important thing now was the emperor's child. After all, their emperor was already thirty years old this year. Having children was a big problem.
Cheng Yin looked viciously at the people who were talking below the stage. The hand that was being roasted could not help but clench tightly. The chess piece that he had sent in back then did not work, causing him to fall into such a situation. It was simply mocking his eagerness for quick success.
However, he did not have much time to wait. He was already old. If he waited any longer, who knew how long it would take.
Cheng Yin looked contemptuously at Shi Jian and Chen Xiangli who were trembling beside him. Although he was kneeling, he straightened his back.
The winner was king and the loser was a bandit. This was a theorem since ancient times. Although he had lost today, he would die with pride.
The executioner looked at the sun and realized that it was time. He stood up and shouted,"Execution."
The executioners stepped forward with their large knives, brushed away the hair of Cheng Yin and the others, and instantly raised their hands and slashed down.
It was the first time that some of the commoners had seen such a bloody scene, so they accidentally cried out in surprise. However, when he thought of the criminals who harmed the country and the people being punished, he was still exceptionally happy.
Bai Ming, who was standing on the city gate tower and watching all this, closed his eyes sadly. He could still remember the scene of them studying diligently together, entering the court with hot water, and assisting the emperor together. He didn't understand why the proud and unyielding companion who had entered the official career with him back then would embark on this treasonous path of no return that would bring disaster to the country and the people.
Thinking of this, Bai Ming sighed deeply. He slowly walked down the city tower with his trusted aides.
In the next few days, everyone began to prepare for the Heavenly Emperor Banquet.
At the same time, Shen Cheng took the letter from the state preceptor and rode along the map in his head. In the end, he realized that the road was getting more and more deviated. He dismounted his horse at the foot of a mountain and placed the letter in front of something that looked like a stone tablet.
Shen Cheng looked at the mountain in front of him curiously and realized that it was no different from other mountains. It was covered in bushes. At this moment, Shen Cheng had completely forgotten Tuoba Xianjun's instructions. He put down the letter and left immediately.
Suddenly, a golden light came from the side. When Shen Cheng turned around, he realized that the letter that was originally placed there had disappeared.
Shen Cheng's eyes turned cold, thinking that this place was indeed very strange.
Before he could react, a white light flashed in front of his eyes and a deep voice sounded in his ear." Seeing that you're the person that the kid called to deliver the letter, I'll let you off with the death penalty for staying here.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Cheng was drenched in sweat because of the murderous tone in that person's voice just now. When he slowly came back to his senses, he found himself on the main road back to Jade Crown City, and the map to the mountain that had been in his mind had completely disappeared.
Shen Cheng walked to the side and mounted his horse, urging the horse to hurry back to the capital. At the same time, he was regretting how he had forgotten the state preceptor's instructions. Fortunately, those people had shown mercy and spared his life.
But who were the people living there?
In the mountain, the Qilin Race's Grand Elder looked at the letter from Tuoba Xianjun with joy. In the end, he couldn't help but start cheering loudly.
This made the few elders sitting at the side unable to sit still. They immediately stood up and dodged the letter in the Great Elder's hand. They squeezed into a pile and began to read.
Sure enough, everyone was ecstatic after watching it.
This kid was indeed their clan's lucky star. Now, he was actually asking the Heavenly Queen to let him handle the Heavenly Emperor Banquet.
"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and get the thing mentioned in the letter and send it to that brat.”Seeing that the person in front of him was still in a daze, the First Elder raised his eyebrows in dissatisfaction and urged him.
"Right, right, right. We should send these things over now.”Only then did the few elders react and hurriedly ran out.
The Great Elder looked at all of this with satisfaction. He thought to himself that he must find some time to take a good look at his grandson. After all, ever since he went out to gain experience, this child whom he had raised had not returned for many years. He did not know if he was doing well.
In an instant, the Great Elder, who had always been known for her imposing manner in the clan, was like a long-winded woman, worried for Tuoba Xianjun.
After a while, everyone had collected all the rare treasures that Tuoba Xianjun needed. They packed them up and brought them to the Great Elder.
"Not bad." The Great Elder stroked his beard and looked at everyone with admiration. After saying that, he stood up and placed the things into his interspatial bag." Let me deliver these things to that kid."”
After saying that, he teleported away without caring about everyone's reaction, leaving behind those who had reacted to the situation.
This old fart was actually so insidious. He escaped before they could react. So come back quickly and fight with us. The winner will deliver the goods. This old fart, they also wanted to watch the Heavenly Emperor Banquet!
At the same time, Tuoba Xianjun found that many things had happened in the past few days after he returned from the South China Sea.
The Right Prime Minister and the others wanted to get rid of King Jing, but they were defeated instead. Before he could rebel, he was seen through by the Emperor and King Jing and was thrown into prison. Today, he was executed.
And Lady Jade actually assassinated the Emperor?! They were supposed to be beheaded together, but they were unexpectedly pregnant, so they were brought back to the palace by the emperor?!
Upon hearing this, Tuoba Xianjun felt that it was necessary for him to go to the palace and find out what was going on with Lady Jade!
As far as he knew, the Emperor would not forgive her for her betrayal just because she was pregnant. The Emperor was the same as King Jing. They were cold to the bone. Unless it was someone they approved of in their hearts, they would not look at you twice.
Moreover, the two brothers hated those who betrayed them. Therefore, those people usually ended up in a very miserable state.
When Tuoba Xianjun entered the Emperor's bedroom with a head of white hair, he saw Chen Ke sitting on the edge of the bed, one hand awkwardly flipping through the memorial on the table in front of her, the other hand holding the hand of the sleeping Lady Jade.
This scene was just like what Tuoba Xianjun had seen in the past, if one ignored the tears that had not dried up at the corners of Lady Jade's eyes.
"Emperor, Imperial Preceptor is here." Jiang Xin whispered into Chen Ke's ear.
Chen Ke looked up and saw Tuoba Xianjun walking to her side. After nodding at her, he looked at Yumian.
Tuoba Xianjun focused his attention on Lady Jade, who was frowning slightly in her sleep. He soon noticed something. He saw a trace of an unfamiliar soul that had yet to dissipate on Lady Jade.
Tuoba Xianjun immediately took out the Enchanting Talisman and the jade pendant from his Qiankun Bag and placed them in front of Chenke. He said softly,""Stick these ecstasy talismans around the bedroom. This jade pendant is to be worn by Lady Jade from now on.”
When Chen Ke heard this, her eyes turned cold and she said in a deep voice,""She still has that thing on her?"
"It has almost dissipated." Tuoba Xianjun replied," But in order to prevent such a situation from happening again, I'll let Lady Jade take care of it. After all, Lady Jade's soul wasn't very stable right now.”
Chen Ke asked Jiang Xin to stick the talisman papers around the bedroom while she stood up and put the jade pendant on Yumian's neck. After putting it on, she gently stroked her cheek.
Tuoba Xianjun saw that he had finished his business, so he bid farewell to Chenke and returned to Xingba Yard. There were still six days until the Heavenly Emperor Banquet, so he had a lot of things to prepare.
In an instant, the bedchamber regained its tranquility, and a warm atmosphere slowly drifted in.
When Tuoba Xianjun returned to Xingba Tower in the Star Plucking Yard, he saw his grandfather drinking tea leisurely with his legs crossed.
Tuoba Xianjun quickly closed the door and returned to his original appearance. He strode over to his grandfather and sat down."Why are you here?"
When the First Elder heard this, he was unhappy. He was an old man, yet he came all the way here to see his grandson. Why did his grandson come here when he saw him? The Great Elder immediately glared at Tuoba Xianjun and said angrily,""Why, are you so unwilling to see me? Then I'll go back."
"Grandpa." Tuoba Xianjun looked at the First Elder who had a childish personality and called out helplessly.
"Humph." First Elder immediately turned his head and ignored his grandson.
"Grandpa, did you bring the thing?" Tuoba Xianjun said.
The Great Elder turned his head and was still fuming, but he still reached out and placed the interspatial bag on the table. Seeing this, Tuoba Xianjun opened the interspatial bag and took out the items inside. He was very satisfied.
"Grandpa, thank you for your hard work." Tuoba Xianjun thanked him warmly and left the room without waiting for the Great Elder's response. He was going to let the people of the Starpull Academy tidy up these things and then take them to decorate the towering Heavenly Emperor Palace behind the Imperial City.
The Great Elder looked at Tuoba Xianjun's back with a gentle gaze, his eyes full of relief.
It seemed that his grandson was living quite well here. Not only did his spiritual power increase, but he also grew taller. However, this annoying personality was still the same as before. He didn't even know how to comfort him when he was angry.
In an instant, the First Elder's childish personality was revealed.
Of course, when the Great Elder was young, he could be said to be very mighty and domineering. How could he be like a "child" now?! Therefore, this just confirmed the saying that the older one lived, the more one's personality would revert.
On this day, Ming Cheya sat by the lake in a daze with her head raised as usual. Chen Yuan went to the front yard to handle official business, and Manzhu and Sha Hua, who were supposed to be by her side, were nowhere to be found. As such, Ming Cheya remained in the courtyard without leaving.
