It was said that there was a Nine Winding Returning Dragon Hall in the imperial palace of Yucheng Country. It was the largest and most luxurious historical site in the surrounding countries. Although it had a long history, it was not dilapidated.
This time, he could take a look.
Ye Tian stepped down from the carriage and looked up at the ten meter tall city gate. The city walls stretched for over ten miles, and as the capital of a country, the Imperial Palace's gates were extraordinarily tall.
When they arrived here, they had to get off their horses and walk. It didn't matter if they were commoners or the descendants of the eight families, even the princes and grandchildren.
However, there were some people in the capital who did not need to abide by it.
King Wuwei and the Formidable Great General, these people with illustrious military merits, who were bestowed by the Emperor with a sword in front of the palace and the honor of riding a horse into the palace were exceptions.
" Civil governance and martial arts. Yucheng Nation will soon take over the world. Although they have been pursuing civil governance and rewarding scholars wantonly over the years, the ones who may receive the greatest honor are still the military merits, the martial arts experts, and the divine soul experts!”Ye Tian took a deep breath. In the vast capital region, how many people could become the Grand Preceptor and the head of the civil officials?
Thinking of this, Ye Tian was confident in the Imperial Examinations, but he didn't really care. The scholarly atmosphere was just a way for him to sharpen his mind and temper his soul.
It could not be used to achieve dreams. Only strength and fists could be used. In ancient times, Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu were used, but they also needed powerful strength to rely on.
He looked around and saw that there was a continuous stream of scholars and nobles gathered at the city gate. Carriages gathered everywhere, servants and servants came and went, and beautiful wives and concubines welcomed them outside. It was bustling.
As the number of people increased, the masters surrounding them all looked confident. Some of them could obtain great honor by entering the top three of the palace.
Although Ye Zhan and Ye Han were brought here by the old eunuch, the servants sent by the Ye family followed closely behind and came here to serve.
"Brother Ye, why are you standing here alone?”Suddenly, a crisp and clear voice was heard, followed by a pleasant fragrance.
Ye Tian looked up and saw a pale, handsome man with a petite figure. He was accompanied by several servants, but one of them caught Ye Tian's attention.
"Brother Ye! Last time, after sending the invitation, my father had something to ask me to do, so I didn't have the time to greet him!”The man saw that Ye Tian had seen through him and said bluntly.
It was the middle-aged man who had intercepted his thoughts at the inn last time. The invitation from a few days ago was also sent by this person.
This person should be the eldest son of King Wuwei, Liu Tie.
"What are you guys doing? "Ye Tian looked at their attire and was a little surprised.
"Little sister, let's go back quickly. If father finds out, it'll be bad.”Liu Tie had an embarrassed expression as he walked forward and persuaded in a low voice.
"Today's event is rare! Let's wait a little longer." Little Yu 'er was dressed in men's clothing. She looked around at the scholars gathered in the surroundings. A rare event had actually appeared at the heavily guarded front door of the hall. She was so excited that her face flushed red, as if it was a rare sight.
"The people of the world are bustling with activity, and all of them come for profit. Miss Yu 'er, this is the most filthy place. I'm afraid it's not suitable for you to come here.”Ye Tian looked around and said calmly.
"Hmm?" Little Yu 'er's face was filled with surprise. She frowned slightly as if she heard some logic. Then, she said in surprise, Then why did Brother Ye come here? I'm afraid this filthy place is even more unsuitable for your cultivation.”
"I cultivate the Great Dao and am no different from ordinary people. I don't mind these things!”Ye Tian waved his hand, looking around at the bustling crowd, not showing any signs of impatience, but rather a look of enjoyment.
"Oh?" Little Yu 'er looked enlightened, walking over to Ye Tian's side and pointing at a young man standing proudly.""Brother Ye, that's Huiyuan Changfeng Wuji, the champion of today's general exams. Even the Grand Preceptor praised him for his essay, calling him a genius. Could this be the talent you spoke of? Are you here for profit and fame?"
Seeing Ye Tian's expression change, he remained calm.
Little Yu 'er revealed a trace of surprise, then smiled and said,"I know this Fearless Eternal Wind. He's not after profits, let alone the name of the map. Speaking of which, it has something to do with you.”
Ye Tian's expression finally changed.
Little Yu 'er seemed to be much happier and said unhurriedly," This Changfeng Wuji is not a person of Yucheng Country strictly speaking, nor does he belong to the surrounding countries. However, his literary talent is extraordinary and all countries are fighting to accept him. It seems that the Emperor intends to keep him this time. I wonder what kind of benefits he will offer to move him."”
Ye Tian's brow furrowed as he looked at the blue-robed figure standing a hundred meters away, his proud and aloof figure seemingly impervious to fire and water.
"However, he cares a lot about one person! That was why he had traveled thousands of miles from the Heavenly Kingdom to this place. Brother Ye, you have to be careful." Little Yu 'er said with a smile.
"That person is Shangguan Qing 'er!"
Ye Tian's expression was calm and unmoved, causing Yu 'er to feel depressed. She then felt a gaze on her.
Then, it disappeared.
"Eternal Wind Fearless!" Ye Tian glanced at him." Come on, then. Whether it's the literary world or martial arts, I'm not afraid!"”
"The palace doors are open!" A loud roar came from somewhere, and the thick door that was more than ten meters tall was slowly opened like an ancient beast.
"Little sister, I'll send you back first. I'm running out of time for the errand father gave me.”Liu Tie looked at the hall door that had already been opened and hurriedly said.
"Big brother, you go ahead. I'll go back later!”Little Yu 'er turned around and said seriously,"The examination in front of the palace is of great importance. You should go quickly."”
"But…?" Liu Tie was very worried. He looked at the wide open door and gritted his teeth,""Brother Ye, I'll leave my sister to you! Thank you so much!"
"You guys guard the young miss and don't make any mistakes.”Liu Tie turned around and said in a deep voice. After saying that, he ran away without a trace.
"This?" Ye Tian looked helplessly at the calm Yu 'er.
"Brother Ye, I have a gift for you!”Little Yu 'er didn't seem to mind and smiled.
"Second Song, bring the brocade box over." Then, Xiao Yu 'er turned around and said in a crisp voice. She took the brocade box from the servant's hand and opened it to take out a thumb-sized pill. A rich fragrance instantly enveloped the surroundings.
The pill was amber in color, and it was clear as if there were many changes hidden inside. The pill was like life, and it contained endless changes. It was obvious that it was a high-grade pill.
Immediately, the surrounding scholars, nobles, and descendants of the eight great clans all looked sideways at the servant beside them. They could not help but shake their heads when they saw the medicinal pill in his hand.
In the history of the imperial examinations, especially for major events like the court examinations, they would prepare high-grade spirit nourishing pills before the examinations. The court examinations would last for three days without eating or drinking. It was not only a test of literary talent, but also a test of cultivation. It was really difficult to hold on.
Of course, very few scholars could afford this pill. However, the imperial court would give out pills to those who could participate in the court examinations.
This was also why so many scholars were passionate about the court examinations.
First, he could enter the Dragon Gate, and second, he could obtain such priceless medicinal pills.
