Chapter 1067 Everyone Is Here
Guan Bai has been the greatest pride of Tiandaoyuan over the years. His status is similar to that of Qiu Shanjun in the Lishan Sword Sect, and he is known as the great name Guan Bai.
This young master with great spiritual talent had suffered a heavy blow a few years ago, and one of his arms was cut off by Wuwu Bi.
Just when many people thought he would sink, no one could have imagined that he would climb out of the abyss of despair and train hard to regain his level of strength. In addition, in the past few years, he had fought with the powerful demons in the north. After hard fighting, his swordsmanship continued to improve, directly breaking through the threshold of the Star Gathering Upper Realm, and his position on the Xiaoyao Ranking was almost close to Liang Wangsun and Xiao De at the top.
If Chen Changsheng chooses Guan Bai as the Archbishop of Yinghua Palace, he will receive the widest support regardless of his virtues and achievements, his background in Tiandao Academy, and his legendary experience. Even if someone wants to question him, it will be difficult to say so directly. .
“Unexpected choices are often good choices.”
Tang Sanshiliu frowned slightly and said: "The only problem is that his qualifications are still too low, and... he is Zhuang Zhihuan's student. It always feels a bit strange to let students manage the teacher, and I want to know that he is very It’s hard to accept.”
Chen Changsheng said: "He should come back this time for the imperial examination. I will try to convince him then."
At the Hanshan Stone Cooking Conference, Guan Bai fought with him. Chen Changsheng was seriously injured and returned to Beijing, which indirectly triggered the earth-shattering events that followed. Guan Bai went to Yongxue Pass and persisted in the ice and snow to confront the demons. Three years.
In the past three years, Chen Changsheng was also in the snowy mountains in the north, but he never met Guan Bai.
The room suddenly became quiet.
Because of the place name Yongxue Pass and the Xiaoyaobang that Guan Bai thought of, Chen Changsheng and Tang Sanliu thought of a person.
Xiao Zhang was hunted all over the world by the Zhou army and the master assassins of Tianji Pavilion, and was eventually forced to go north. It is said that there was a bloody battle between the two sides at Yongxue Pass, and then he disappeared into the snowfield. No one knows whether he is still alive now, and if he is still alive, what he will be doing.
Thinking of the iron chain on the canyon, the domineering figure descending from the sky, the white paper whistling in the river wind, the fragrance of tea all over the city and the tea merchants who sacrificed their lives, Chen Changsheng and Tang Thirty-six was silent for a long time.
"Let's talk about business."
Tang Sanshiliu didn't like this depressing atmosphere and said, "When will you give me the question?"
Chen Changsheng was confused and didn't understand what he meant.
Tang Thirty-Six glanced outside the hall and lowered his voice and said, "We don't need the literary test, it's just the martial arts test."
Chen Changsheng was stunned for a moment before he understood. He opened his eyes wide and said, "You want me to reveal the topic?"
Looking at his clear, bright, impurity-free eyes, Tang Sanliu felt a little ashamed, and then became inexplicably angry.
"Don't forget that you are also the dean of the National Education College! What's wrong with seeking some benefits for the students? If Priest Xin hadn't come here to tell us the problem, you would have thought of borrowing a crane from Xu Yourong to cross the Qujiang River with your rigid mind. ?”
If it had been any other time, Chen Changsheng might have looked at him and asked seriously: Is this just old shame turning into anger? But today he didn't speak, because he heard Priest Xin's name in this sentence, which reminded him again of the county town filled with the fragrance of tea.
Chen Changsheng walked to the window, looked out of the hall, and remained silent.
Priest Xin is dead, Archbishop Merissa is dead long ago, and Uncle Pope is also dead.
This palace now belongs to him, but it is strange to him because the people he once knew are no longer there.
The current Li Palace is a little deserted, but the will is more unified, but it still cannot confront the Zhou court head-on.
The most critical problem is that his master Shang Xingzhou's reputation in the state religion is too high.
If the day of war really comes, not to mention defecting before the battle, at least one-third of the priests who leave the palace will choose to remain silent or retreat.
Spring is gradually coming, and the ivy on the stone walls of the palace gradually reveals its attractive green appearance.
Looking at those stone walls and thinking about the scene before entering the Chinese Academy of Education, Chen Changsheng felt a little emotional.
In a sense, from the moment he was born to the moment he entered the National Education Academy, his life was arranged by Shang Xingzhou.
His emotions towards Shang Xingzhou were very complicated.
I believe Shang Xingzhou treats him the same way.
He originally thought that the incident in Baidi City might be a turning point.
Since he has acquiesced in returning to Kyoto, there must be an explanation whether there is war or peace between master and disciple.
But who would have thought that Shang Xingzhou went to Luoyang...
Don’t you even want to see me?
A cry of wild geese woke Chen Changsheng out of his deep thoughts.
A few bright red shadows flashed across the green vines and the blue sky.
That's the Red Goose Chuan Shu.
"What happened?"
Tang Sanshiliu walked to him and looked at the red geese that had landed in various places in Kyoto, and suddenly felt a little uneasy.
Not long after, Hu Sanji came over and said, "The people participating in the imperial examination have arrived."
After hearing this, Tang Sanshiliu's uneasiness did not disappear, but became even more uneasy.
Although the Imperial Examination is a grand event, why should the palace and the imperial court use red geese at the same time to send emergency messages.
"Who exactly is here?"
"The information I received here is not complete."
Hu Sanliu glanced at Chen Changsheng and continued: "There should be quite a few people here."
Not long after, the King of Linghai hurried from outside the palace and said: "Everyone is here."
He was cold and arrogant, and his voice trembled slightly when he said these three words.
Not fear, of course, but excitement.
…
…
Students participating in the imperial examination came to Kyoto from all over the mainland, and many of them came from the south.
There are many sects of cultivation in the south, the families have profound heritage, and strong masters emerge in endlessly. In recent years, with the emergence of Lishan Sword Sect and Huaiyuan, the training of the younger generation of practitioners has far surpassed that of the Ivy League sects. Represented by the northern forces. But what shocked Kyoto this year was not the pressure brought by students from the south, but the fact that they had too many teachers accompanying them, and their names were too famous!
Only two disciples of Lishan Sword Sect participated in the imperial examination, but there were more than ten people accompanying them. This is in sharp contrast to the indifferent scene when Gou Hanshi and others participated in the imperial examination on their own. Not to mention that among these ten people were famous young swordsman geniuses such as Gou Hanshi, Guan Feibai, Liang Banhu, and Baicai. As for the rest of the people, it was even more terrifying. They were all elders of the Sword Hall in the Star Gathering Upper Realm!
Only one disciple from Nanxizhai participated in the imperial examination, but all the disciples from Saintess Peak came.
Hundreds of girls were wearing fluttering white skirts, and everyone in Kyoto was dumbfounded.
There are also the chief of Cijian Temple, the new head of Lieri Sect, and more than thirty masters from southern sects who have entered the capital.
The old lady of the Mu Zhe family and the head of the Wu family came to Beijing again after the Tianshu Mausoleum incident three years ago.
Somewhere in the mountains outside Beijing, someone also saw the Akiyama family's carriage.
What the King of Linghai said was very accurate.
Except for the head of the Lishan Sword Sect and the elders who had lived in seclusion for many years, all the powerful men from the south that the world could recall had arrived.
No one knew that two Taoist nuns whose age could not be discerned quietly entered Kyoto and lived in the old palace of King Louyang.
But people knew that Wang Po had arrived with a knife.
Because a crack suddenly appeared on Luoshui River.
The green trees outside the palace turned yellow overnight, as if they had turned into ginkgo trees.
