The crowd dispersed.
The person who spoke was wearing a eunuch's uniform.
Under everyone's gaze, he walked over unhurriedly.
There was still a faint smile on his face.
It was just that this smile looked a little fake, making one's heart shudder.
Behind him were dozens of eunuchs.
The leader was holding a tray with both hands.
The tray was covered with a red cloth, which made people curious.
"What does it have to do with you?”
"Governor Cao, instead of interrogating the thieves in the East Chamber, why did you have the time to come to Wudang Mountain?”
Zhu Budian snorted coldly.
As soon as he finished speaking.
Everyone's expression changed.
His gaze towards Cao Zhengchun was filled with hostility.
Among them, some could not hold their breaths.
His eyes were so wide that it looked like he wanted to eat someone!
'As expected of a Divine Marquis! With just a few words, he had stirred up the relationship between them and the miscellaneous family.”
He noticed everyone's gazes.
Cao Zhengchun's expression remained unchanged.
He secretly praised in his heart.
Compared to the Dragon Guarding Mountain Villa.
The reputation of the East Chamber in the Ming Dynasty was notorious.
This time, his identity was exposed.
Naturally, it would be rejected by everyone.
However, Cao Zhengchun didn't care at all.
He chuckled and said indifferently.
"I've heard of Perfected Zhang's great name. When His Majesty learned of Perfected Zhang's birthday, he specially sent me to congratulate him. Why? Does Divine Marquis have any objections?”
"You!" Zhu Bujue was speechless.
The killing intent in his eyes was almost eye-catching!
However, due to his identity and the situation at the scene.
In the end, he could only suppress the anger in his heart.
He snorted coldly and turned his head away.
Seeing this.
Cao Zhengchun smiled proudly.
He reached out and lifted the red cloth on the tray held by the eunuch.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he respectfully picked up the imperial edict.
He coughed lightly and said in a sharp voice with a serious expression.
The emperor ordered: Although I have lived in the court for a long time, I have always heard of the great name of Immortal Zhang. I hereby come to congratulate you on your birthday today and give you two thousand-year-old elixirs!
In addition, he worshiped Zhenren Zhang as the Imperial Advisor of the Great Ming Dynasty, enjoying the power of ten thousand people under one person. The Wudang Sect is the national religion and will lead all the sects in the martial world! Respect this!
Before he could finish his sentence.
The scene instantly became so silent that even a pin drop could be heard!
At this moment.
Whether it was the group of itinerant cultivators who came to join in the fun or the people from the various large sects who came to congratulate them.
After hearing this imperial edict.
All of them fell into silence with different expressions.
Even the atmosphere gradually became subtle!
'Damn it! This brat actually didn't hesitate to spend so much money!!'
Zhu Buduan's eyes turned cold.
While he was angry, he also felt a little pressure.
He knew exactly what the little Emperor was thinking.
This was also the reason why he was willing to use a 500-year-old spirit herb as a congratulatory gift!
On one hand, it was to rope in Zhang Sanfeng.
On the other hand, it was also a form of insurance.
Even if he could not win the other party over, he could still make him choose to be neutral in the game between him and the little Emperor.
However, there were two thousand-year-old spirit herbs.
It was easy to tell who was better at a glance.
He couldn't help but worry!
But what he didn't know was…
As the leader of Wudang's Seven Heroes, Song Yuanqiao was also the host of this birthday celebration.
After hearing the contents of the imperial edict, his heart was also filled with complicated feelings.
Who wouldn't like a thousand-year-old spirit herb?
However, once he chose to accept the edict, it would also indirectly indicate his side.
Even though this might offend Zhu Bujue, it was not something that Wudang could not bear.
But the key problem was…
There was also a sentence at the end of the imperial edict that said he would lead all the sects in the Ming Dynasty!
How could he randomly reply?
Especially in front of the persons-in-charge of the various big sects in Great Ming.
It was no different from putting Wudang on a fire rack to roast!
Although he had confidence in his master and Wudang Sect, he was still confident.
But Song Yuanqiao wasn't stupid.
He was going to be the enemy of the entire Ming Dynasty.
No matter how strong Wudang was, they could not fight against four opponents!
However, if he didn't pick it up...
It was also equivalent to slapping the Emperor's face in front of the various sects of Great Ming!
For a moment.
Song Yuan didn't know whether to accept or not.
He was caught in a dilemma.
He was so anxious that his forehead was covered in cold sweat.
However…
Cao Zhengchun did not seem to notice this.
She handed the imperial edict to him with a smile.
"Great Swordsman Song, from now on, everyone will be one of us. Please take care of us.”
"Ah, this." Song Yuanqiao was slightly stunned.
He felt countless gazes on his back.
He seemed to be at a loss.
He didn't know what to do.
Fortunately…
Just as he was in a dilemma.
Perfected Zhang's voice drifted over from the mountain.
His voice wasn't loud, but it clearly entered everyone's ears.
"Eunuch Cao, please pass on the message that I thank Your Majesty for your kindness.”
"It's just that I'm focused on pursuing martial arts. Forget about the state preceptor. In the future, if there's any request, Wudang Sect will not shirk its responsibility.”
As soon as he said this.
Everyone's expressions changed, and their reactions were different.
To the sectless cultivators.
Regardless of the outcome, Perfected Zhang was awesome!
As for Cao Zhengchun, his eyes were gloomy and his heart was filled with dissatisfaction.
The smile on his face had disappeared without a trace.
He wanted to flare up.
However, due to Perfected Zhang's strength and the covetous eyes of many sects present, the number of people who were present was extremely high.
In the end, he could only swallow his anger and remain silent.
Compared to his anger.
The sect leaders heaved a sigh of relief.
Even if Perfected Zhang accepted the edict, they would not listen to Wudang in the future.
However, with this flag around.
On the surface, it was very easy to be restrained.
This was naturally not the situation they wanted to see.
Fortunately, Perfected Zhang didn't choose to be enemies with the major sects.
Then, he looked at Zhu Bujue.
His originally malicious gaze.
After hearing this answer, the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up slightly.
At the same time, he was filled with disdain for Zhu Houzhao.
To be honest, he was really shocked by his actions.
In front of 90% of the sects in Great Ming Jianghu, he actually said that Wudang would lead the Jianghu.
This wasn't just slapping their faces!
It was simply pressing their faces to the ground and rubbing them crazily!
If he agreed, wouldn't Wudang become the target of public criticism?!
Even if he wanted to say it, he should have said it in private!
This was great. He had lost all his face!
Thinking of this…
Zhu ignored the gloating.
He was also secretly rejoicing in his heart.
Fortunately, such a person was his opponent!
