Great Sui Dynasty, Daxing Palace.
"What? It's over?"
Yang Guang was dumbfounded.
"I haven't even seen anyone on the rankings in Great Sui, and this inventory is over?”
One of the ministers couldn't help but step forward.
"Your Majesty, this is only the list from the 21st to the 30th place.”
"Tomorrow, the Golden Rankings will continue to announce the names of the people on the rankings.”
Yang Guang's eyes widened when he heard that.
"Don't I know that this is the last thirty? Don't I know that there will be more tomorrow?”
"You like to talk too much, right? Men, drag him out and slap him a thousand times!”
"Let's see if we can talk more next time!"
"Yes, sir!"
The surrounding guards immediately came up to drag the minister away.
"Eh? Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
The official did not even have time to struggle before he was taken away.
Soon, sounds of slapping and screams came from outside Daxing Palace.
It made one shudder.
The ministers tensed up and did not dare to say a word.
"Alright, alright. Let's end it here today and withdraw from the court.”
Yang Guang didn't have the mood to listen anymore and waved his hand in annoyance.
The civil and military officials, led by Yuwen Huaji, kowtowed to Yang Guang and bid farewell.
When they left Daxing Palace, they saw the official who had been slapped a thousand times by Yang Guang.
His cheeks had been smashed by the wooden planks, and he had fainted.
He looked so pitiful!
"Sigh…when will these days end?”
The ministers shook their heads, but they did not dare to say anything.
He could only mutter in his heart as he left.
"Heh, isn't it easy to end it?”
"Wait for this foolish emperor to bury his empire.”
"With the birth of a new imperial power, your suffering will end.”
Pei Ju, no, the man who should be called Evil King Shi Zhixuan now, revealed an evil smile on his face.
Shi Zhixuan returned to his residence.
"Milord, there is a letter from Miss Feng.”
The butler respectfully handed a letter to Shi Zhixuan.
The handwriting on it was elegant. It was from Shi Zhixuan's most beloved daughter, Shi Qingxuan, who was known as Master Shi.
"Oh?"
Hearing that it was a letter from his beloved daughter, Shi Zhixuan's expression finally changed.
He opened the letter and read it carefully.
Although there was no expression on his face, there seemed to be anger in Shi Zhixuan's eyes.
"Humph."
After reading the letter, Shi Zhixuan snorted coldly and crumpled the letter into a ball.
"After so many years, she refused to listen to me because of a man she had only met a few times!”
Shi Zhixuan's voice was filled with anger.
However, he felt more helpless.
After all, she was his only bloodline in this world. Shi Zhixuan truly doted on her.
"Last time, I asked you to find a man with a black jade pendant on his waist. Did you find him?”
Shi Zhixuan glanced at the butler.
The other party quivered under his gaze.
" S-Sir, we're still looking for him. He should be here soon…"
the butler stammered.
"Hmph, if you still can't find him, this will be your fate!”
Shi Zhixuan casually shattered the stone lamp beside him and walked into the manor.
The butler could only follow behind bitterly.
Shi Zhixuan loved his daughter dearly. Back then, Shi Qingxuan had met a mysterious man in the Dark Forest Building.
After that, he left his thoughts on the other party.
After Shi Zhixuan found out, a girl lover was naturally furious.
However, Shi Qingxuan, who had always listened to Shi Zhixuan, seemed to have made up her mind this time.
In the end, even Shi Zhixuan's Flowering Sect was unwilling to return.
While Shi Zhixuan was angry at his daughter's " rebellion ", he kept mobilizing his men to find the person who had won his daughter's heart.
However, he still found nothing.
"Sigh…With your power in Great Sui, you still can't find this person after searching for so many years.”
"Or there's no such person at all, and it's just that Young Lady made it up to deceive Daren.”
"Or perhaps this person's skills and strength far exceed yours, which is why we couldn't find even a trace of him…"
Thinking of this, the butler suddenly quivered.
Shi Zhixuan was a late stage womanizer, and he was only interested in Shi Qingxuan.
That was why his astonishing intelligence was not enough.
It was also because of this that Shi Zhixuan had never realized that the man his daughter, Shi Qingxuan, had taken a fancy to.
How terrifying was his strength?
"I, I'll think of a way to remind Master now, is it too late…"
The butler was in a dilemma.
……
"Up until now, Great Qin has not had a single faction on the rankings.”
The hall of Xianyang was silent.
No one dared to speak casually.
It was not until a long while later that Ying Zheng opened his mouth and slowly uttered these words.
The ministers 'hearts trembled.
"Your Majesty, please don't be anxious. There will definitely be another chance in the future.”
"In my opinion, the Yin-Yang School also has the possibility of being on the rankings.”
Ge Nia said.
"Hah."
Ying Zheng laughed.
"Ge Nia, don't just talk about the Yin-Yang School. Your School of Strategy is not bad either, so how could it not be on the rankings?”
Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Ge Nia sighed.
"Your Majesty, Zongheng has long…fallen apart.”
Ge Nia wanted to say something more, but Ying Zheng waved his hand.
"As long as the Nine Prefectures are still around, there will not be a day where we can escape from the power of the alliance.”
"The world will still need the School of Political Traversing.”
Ying Zheng raised his head and swept his bright eyes across the hall, pausing for a moment on Ying Wuying.
"Today's court meeting will end here. Tomorrow at noon, we will gather here again.”
"Yes, send father off."
After the princes and ministers bowed and saw Ying Zheng out of the hall.
Ying Wuying yawned.
"This court meeting is really boring.”
There weren't many things that could make him perk up after this court session.
To Ying Wuying, it would be more interesting to have the snow maidens and Yan Lingji play the zither and dance for him in the mansion.
Coincidentally, Ying Wuying's voice wasn't loud.
However, Ying Zheng, who was preparing to leave, still heard it.
Ying Zheng paused for a moment, then quickened his pace and left the hall.
Only the ministers were left looking at each other.
"Your Majesty, did Your Majesty hear that just now?”
"I don't think so. Otherwise, with His Majesty's temper, how could nothing have happened?”
"That's true…but the Ninth Young Master is really bold. He actually dares to speak so loudly in front of His Majesty.”
"Ah, why else would the Ninth Young Master be a silkpants? I'm afraid that in his heart, he doesn't have any sense of superiority.”
" I heard that the Ninth Young Master held a banquet in Drunken Sun Restaurant for three days two days ago. Sigh…"
"Such a good appearance is really wasted.”
Ying Wuying wasn't affected by everyone's whispers.
He left Xianyang Palace.
He only left behind a carefree back view, as if nothing was lingering in his heart.
……
"Ge Nia, what do you think?"
Returning to the Black Dragon Palace where he usually read memorials, Ying Zheng sat behind the table, looking at Ge Nia with a burning gaze.
Ge Nia's only hesitation was caught by Ying Zheng.
"Just tell the truth."
"Yes."
Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Ge Nie finally said.
"I think that the Ninth Prince is someone who can become great.”
