Chapter 106 Wherever You Are Is a Vortex, Rewards in Tianxuan Palace Will Cause Trouble

The Great Zhao Dynasty moved south for 500 years. Although the territory it ruled changed, the system it had always followed did not change much.

Since the founding emperor of the Great Zhao Dynasty ended the situation of warlords fighting each other for hundreds of years in the Central Plains, the Great Zhao Dynasty has been adhering to the idea of ​​using culture to pacify the country and implementing the basic national policy of supporting culture and suppressing military power.

Although the Academy of Literature and the Temple of Martial Arts are in opposition, the dynasty obviously favors the Academy of Literature. In the Great Zhao Dynasty, the status of military officers and generals is far inferior to that of civil officials.

Under such an atmosphere of respecting culture and suppressing military power, there are even phenomena such as civil officials not replacing military officials. The prosperity of the imperial examination has made many geniuses in cultivation more eager to become civil officials, and military positions have become unpopular.

And the status of those military families has become more and more embarrassing under such national policies.

In the army, there are also military supervisors, who are appointed by civil officials and Diao Si, with the purpose of supervising military officers and generals.

Under such circumstances, the Academy of Literature and the Temple of Martial Arts have formed a more extreme opposition.

Restricting military generals has always been a consensus of the Great Zhao. After all, Taizu started his career as a military general, wore a yellow robe, and founded such a great dynasty.

The current Zhao family emperor knows very well that once military generals lose their restrictions, powerful military generals will control the military power, which will have a great impact on a country.

In the Tianxuan Palace, the atmosphere has long become tense and murderous.

The return of the second master of the Academy of Literature surprised many people. What is even more surprising is that the second master of the Academy of Literature, Pang Ji, returned to the Tianxuan Palace and the first sentence he said was to support the decision of Prime Minister Qin.

For a time, the atmosphere in front of the Tianxuan Palace became extremely strange.

On the throne, the Zhao family emperor frowned slightly, and his fingers were still tapping on the throne.

He looked at the second master Pang Ji who stepped into the Tianxuan Palace, and he was a little confused about this person's thoughts. Although Pang Ji was on good terms with Prime Minister Qin, he had never supported Prime Minister Qin as directly as today.

Moreover, the Emperor of Zhao had heard that Anle had once attracted the strong and majestic spirit of the Wenqu Monument in front of the Prime Minister Qin's residence, and this boy was also deeply involved with the Wenyuan.

Why did the second master Pang Ji stand up to support Qin Lishi?

The Emperor of Zhao did not say much and fell into thought, but after a little thought, he figured out the relationship and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

Di Zang could not help but want to pull out the Taizu Dragon Slaying Sword that he had just put away and chop it out.

His beard and hair were flying, and the tattoos on his face kept moving. His eyes were like two dazzling suns, staring at the second master Pang Ji.

"Pang, old thief! What are you talking about?!"

"My Wu Temple uses the Wu Kui Stone, the treasure of the Wu Temple, as the question for the martial arts test. What's wrong with that? How is it unfair?!"

Di Zang angrily rebuked and questioned.

Second Master Pang Ji bowed his head and said calmly: "As Prime Minister Qin said, Anle and Wu Kui Stone can generate resonance that others have never had, and can attract the help of Wu Kui from all generations. This is unfair. For example, our Wen Academy has never taken the Wenqu Stele as an object for assessment. Why? Because Anle has a great spirit, and using the Wenqu Stele as an assessment is unfair to others."

After Second Master said this, the anger on Di Zang's face slowly receded. He narrowed his eyes and loosened his grip on the knife handle.

"Is this your attitude, or the attitude of the entire Wen Academy?"

"Do Zhu Huoxi and Wang Banshan have the same attitude as you?"

Di Zang asked coldly.

Pang Ji sighed lightly: "This is my attitude alone, and has nothing to do with the first and third masters. There are different factions in the Academy of Literature. Although I have been in charge of the affairs of the Academy of Literature over the years, I can only represent the faction behind me. But everything I do is for the Academy of Literature."

Di Zang took a deep look at Pang Ji, and he suddenly understood why Pang Ji came back.

It was because Anle pushed the Wu Kui Stone three feet out, which caused the shadows of the Wu Kui of all generations on the Wu Kui Stone to appear and dance.

Therefore, the second master Pang Ji, who worked hard for the Academy of Literature, would return to Tianxuan Palace.

Because Anle rejected the invitation of the first master Zhu Huoxi, it meant that he would definitely not join the Academy of Literature.

Li Youan, who walked the legendary road, once entered the Academy of Literature and left the Academy, but at least he was a student of the Academy of Literature.

Although Su Zhanxian, who attracted Haoran, also left the Academy of Literature, he also showed his style in the Academy of Literature.

Only Anle, who had offended Haoran on the Wenqu Monument, had never joined the Wenyuan.

Anle had repeatedly offended the shadows of the Wukui of all generations on the Wukui Stone. If he joined the Wumiao, perhaps the Wumiao, which had been under the trend of "respecting literature and suppressing martial arts" in the Great Zhao Dynasty, would be revitalized.

If such a genius joined the Wumiao, it might suppress the Wenyuan for five hundred years!

The temperament of the second master Pang Ji, who had worked hard for the Wenmiao, was naturally unwilling to see it.

Among the three masters of the Wenyuan, the first master Zhu Huoxi devoted himself to studying Neo-Confucianism, studying things to gain knowledge, and concentrating on learning. In fact, he was not keen on the collision and struggle between the Wenyuan and the Wumiao.

The third master Wang Banshan had a very different temperament. He had always been very unhappy with the Confucian students of the Wenyuan who were obsessed with making friends with civil and military officials and deeply involved in the prosperous dreams of Lin'an Prefecture. He clamored every day to reform the Wenyuan and separate from the Wenyuan.

Only the second master Pang Ji is devoted to the Academy of Literature and is the most orthodox master of the Academy of Literature.

Only Pang Ji is devoted to confronting the Martial Temple and is concerned about the future of the Academy of Literature.

"Di took the Martial Temple's Wu Kui Stone as a martial arts test. What is tested is not only the cultivation, but also a breakthrough of the candidates' own martial arts limits. This is for fairness."

Di Zang looked at Pang Ji, exhaled and said: "The dispute between the Academy of Arts and the Martial Arts Temple has been going on for thousands of years. There is no need for us to delay the future of a candidate because of this, don't you think so, Second Master?"

"Besides, implicating a young man in the struggle between the Wenyuan Academy and the Martial Arts Temple will only cause jokes."

The second wife, Pang Ji, sighed and looked at Di Zang: "You also know that this is a dispute between the Academy of Arts and the Martial Arts Temple..."

Di Zang understood and stopped talking.

He knew very well Pang Ji's character, and he was willing to sacrifice a lot for the sake of the Academy.

In recent years, thanks to the Zhao Dynasty's policy of righting literature and suppressing martial arts, many military generals in the Wumiao Temple have been suppressed. In the civil and military competitions, the battles between the Wenqu List and the Fierce Generals List, the generals of the Wumiao Temple were defeated more.

This was the glorious moment when the Wenyuan suppressed the Wu Temple.

The appearance of An Le made Pang Ji, the second concubine, worry about the future of the Academy. This young man who frequently provoked the Wukui of all generations on the Wukui Stone may become the person to lead the rise of the Wugui Temple.

This time he became the Prime Minister of Qin because Anle once again caused the shadow of the previous martial arts chiefs in the martial arts test, so the second wife Pang Jifa was completely determined.

Di Zang knew that since Pang Ji had made a decision, he would not change it easily.

The fire of the struggle between the Literature Academy and the Martial Arts Temple finally burned Anle.

Although the Wen Yuan and Martial Arts Temple, An Le Club has not yet joined.

However, the young man's talent and talent, standing there, were the source of the whirlpool.

…

…

Outside Tianxuan Palace.

Anle was also a little surprised. He knew that Xiang Qin's words were not only aimed at him, but also aimed at the Lin family through him.

However, the appearance of the second master of the literary school made Anle feel the spearhead coming directly towards him.

Anle was silent for a moment, not quite sure what was going on here.

If I remember correctly, he had a very pleasant conversation with the first wife, and he also had a good relationship with the third wife.

This second master had only met him once before in Wenxinlin. However, the second master had a rather kind face, so he probably had a good sense of him.

But he never thought that he would stab him in the back with a black belly that is unique to literati.

"The reason why the Second Master will come forward is probably related to the orthodox dispute between the Academy of Arts and the Martial Arts Temple. You have provoked the emergence of the Wukui of all dynasties on the Wukui Stone both times. The Second Master is worried about you joining the Martial Temple, so he suppresses you. Already started."

Just when Anle was confused.

The white girl Ye Wenxi on the side spoke softly, and her soft and virtuous voice followed the spring breeze and spread into Anle's cochlea.

"You must have declined the invitation from the Academy of Arts, right?" Ye Wenxi smiled dignifiedly and elegantly, as if she were a lady.

Anle nodded, and Ye Wenxi continued to talk about the conflict between the Academy of Arts and the Martial Arts Temple.

Only then did Anle understand that the struggle between the Academy of Arts and the Martial Arts Temple was so serious.

However, at this time, there seems to be no peace or anything.

Ye Wenxi stood side by side with him and spoke softly. Anle nodded and listened while absorbing the energy of time from him.

Ever since he set foot in White Jade Square today, he has been preparing for the examination in front of the palace. He hasn't had time to absorb the energy of time yet. Now it is time to take advantage of the controversy in the temple to absorb the energy of time.

Bai gave the girl five strands first, and Sima Pudu, Wang Qilin, Zhong Taohua, and Qin Huaan, who was slowly getting up, also received five strands each.

A total of twenty-five rays of time energy were easily accounted for.

Outside the palace, An Le was happily absorbing the energy of the years.

Above the temple, the atmosphere gradually became solemn with the collision of energy between Di Zang and Erfuzi.

On the throne, the Emperor of the Zhao family did not speak.

The civil and military officials below were all thinking a lot at this moment. Many civil officials looked at each other, with light shining in their eyes.

The liberal arts academy is the cradle of civil servants. Basically, most civil servants came out of the liberal arts academy and have made their mark on the literary and music charts.

In fact, many of them are students of the Second Master of the Academy of Arts.

Therefore, when the Second Master of the Academy of Arts expressed his stance, many civil servants became active and understood what the Second Master meant. They stopped being silent one by one and walked out of the queue of civil and military officials.

He stretched out his wide sleeves, held a salute and made a long bow, speaking out in support of Prime Minister Qin.

Mo Zi, who is part of Prime Minister Qin's faction, said nothing, but civil servants from other factions also stood up to support Prime Minister Qin's statement.

All civil and military officials knew clearly that the purpose of Prime Minister Qin's move was not to deal with Anle, but more to target the Lin family, a family of martial arts.

The civil servants who came from the Academy of Arts were naturally very keen on suppressing the Wuxun family, so they were happy to go along with the situation.

Even Qin Lishi, who was standing at the forefront, was slightly confused at the moment, but he didn't show it and continued to bow.

He stood up and objected to the martial arts temple's use of Wu Kuishi as the standard for testing the leader of the martial arts test. He just tried it and never felt that it could be used to retry the martial arts test.

He stood up this time, more to pull out a sword and point the tip of the sword at Lin Mansion.

This led to the ensuing storm.

Although Qin Lishi really hoped that Anle would not be able to reach the top three in the palace test, in that case, he could naturally rely on the laws of Zhao to detain Anle and destroy this so-called young genius.

However, even if Anle really succeeds in reaching the top three, or even reaches the top spot, he doesn't care. It's best to use the law to solve the problem. If he can't, the worst thing is to take his time afterwards.

He, Qin Lishi, could endure it.

Zhao Huangting's deadline is approaching, and the war in Canglang River is tense. It is impossible for Li Youan to stay in Lin'an Mansion for a long time, and Lin Mansion... is afraid of big changes under today's turmoil.

Therefore, An Le's backers basically fell off piece by piece like broken flowers, until An Le was completely exposed. Without An Le's backer, Qin Lishi naturally had many ways to get rid of this young man.

Just like in these years, he quietly eliminated one competitor after another and climbed to the position of prime minister step by step.

As for standing up to target An Le this time, it was more to use An Le to show off his sword against the Lin family.

In addition, the most important point is that all this was done not only because of Qin Lishi's grudges with the Lin family, but also because of the emperor of the Zhao family. Qin Lishi... was just a tool used by the emperor of the Zhao family to suppress the Lin family. Just a knife.

It just so happened that he, Qin Lishi, was very willing to be the knife that slashed at the Lin Mansion.

In Tianxuan Palace, the atmosphere suddenly became subtle.

Li Youan frowned slightly and looked at the white-haired second wife in a scholar's shirt. It seemed that he didn't know why the second wife appeared and got involved in such things.

Madam Hua's face became more and more stern, cold and emotionless, but there was a trace of determination surging under her indifferent face.

Mrs. Yu leaned on the faucet crutch and shook her head gently.

Mrs. Ye, who is also a member of the Ye family, also showed a strange expression, and her graceful brows furrowed. The appearance of the second wife of the Academy of Arts made things even more difficult to handle.

The dull atmosphere lasted for a while.

Faced with the obeisances and speeches of the civil and military officials, the Emperor of the Zhao family continued to think deeply.

Finally, the eldest prince, wearing a python robe, walked out, clasped his fists and bowed: "Your Majesty, I think that what Prime Minister Qin said is indeed reasonable, and what the Second Master said is also reasonable. To avoid injustice, the Academy of Literature did not invite Wen Qu. Monument, because Anle once created awe-inspiring images on the Wenqu Monument, but Di Wukui ignored this and moved the Wu Kui Stone..."

"Okay, I know what you mean."

Before the eldest prince could finish speaking, the emperor of the Zhao family spoke slowly on the throne.

The eldest prince immediately fell silent, held his fists in a salute, and stepped aside.

Tong Diao Temple has returned to the emperor's side, and he lowers his eyebrows.

The emperor of the Zhao family glanced across, and finally passed the Tianxuan Palace and the White Jade Danchi.

It fell on Ye Wenxi and An Le, who were whispering to each other's ears, and on An Le, who was happily absorbing the energy of the years.

Feeling the emperor's gaze, Ye Wenxi seemed to feel embarrassed about being caught in a minor move. She immediately pursed her lips and stopped talking. She stood squarely with An Le, her white fingers gently rubbing the hilt of the sword on the small mountain at her waist.

"The words of Prime Minister Qin and the Second Master do make some sense, but the fact that the Martial Arts Temple invited Wu Kuishi to serve as a test for the martial arts test also reflects the importance of the test in front of the temple..."

"The Academy of Literature and the Martial Arts Temple have been passed down for thousands of years. They are both places where our country cultivates talents. I treat them equally."

"Let's do this. I came up with a compromise, canceling the qualification of the civil and military leaders to directly advance to the first place, and restoring the original third competition. However, in order to reflect the fairness of An Le as the civil and military leaders, Ye Wenxi suppressed An Le and If we compete at the same level of cultivation, the winner will be the champion of Great Zhao, how about that?”

The words of the Emperor of the Zhao family did not carry much imperial authority.

But the words fell.

Prime Minister Qin, the leader of the officials, immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Your Majesty is wise."

Afterwards, the eldest prince and many civil servants followed.

"Your Majesty is wise."

The shouts were like waves rising in the vast sea, and the sound waves roared around the engraved dragon pillars supporting the palace in Tianxuan Palace.

A smile appeared on the corners of Zhao's emperor's lips.

Neither Di Zang nor his second wife spoke.

Everyone's eyes and eyes fell on Anle and Ye Wenxi under the white jade ridge outside Tianxuan Palace.

The spring breeze came slowly, blowing the boy's white clothes and wide sleeves.

Anle stood there, looking at the Zhao family emperor who was sitting on the throne, with neither joy nor sadness on his face.

He felt an emotion of waiting for thanks from the eyes of the Emperor of the Zhao family. The emperor seemed to think that this was a way to save him from the siege of peace and happiness, and it was a gift to him.

Everything inside and outside Tianxuan Palace suddenly became quiet.

Whether it was the scholars in the A and B rankings in the distance, or the civil and military officials kneeling and kowtowing under the temple, they were all waiting for An Le's response.

Anle thought for a while, suddenly smiled, and slowly straightened up his waist, looking straight into the depths of Tianxuan Palace, where he sat on the throne and looked down.

However, Anle hasn't spoken yet.

Ye Wenxi, who was beside him, already bowed and saluted, and said in a dignified and virtuous voice: "Your Majesty, let's forget about the competition. I don't think there is any controversy or unfairness in Mr. An, the civil and military leader."

"My daughter has grown up watching Wu Kuishi, while Mr. An has only watched Wu Kuishi twice. Is this comparison unfair to Mr. An?"

"Therefore, Your Majesty, I am unwilling to compete with Mr. An."

Ye Wenxi's voice was soft, but also filled with determination.

In Tianxuan Palace, everything was quiet for a moment.

The eyes of the emperor of the Zhao family, who was sitting on the throne, changed and became a little colder.

Ye Longsheng's granddaughter... is really as hard-tempered as Ye Longsheng.

under.

The moods of all the civil and military officials were changing. After all, Ye Wenxi's identity was quite sensitive.

Li Youan chuckled, with a strong sense of appreciation in his eyes, and Deputy Prime Minister Ouyang Xiangru also stroked his beard and chuckled.

Mrs. Hua and Mrs. Yu also had some admiration and some gratitude. Ye Wenxi's move was to relieve the Lin family from the siege, and it was also to calm the turmoil.

Mrs. Ye pursed her lips and smiled softly, very satisfied with Ye Wenxi's performance.

The Zhao family emperor's eyes moved sideways and fell on Anle: "Anle, what do you think?"

The moment the Zhao family emperor spoke.

On the side of the throne, Tong Diao Si, who lowered his eyebrows and bowed his head, slowly raised his eyes. On his thin body, a majestic aura suddenly surged, staring at Anle, meaning to let Anle answer properly.

Facing this pressure, Anle smiled, [Fearless Heart] Dao Fruit trembled slightly, [Heroic Attraction] also attracted heroic spirit to interweave around his body.

"Your Majesty, if you really feel that this palace civil and military examination witnessed by your Majesty is not fair and just, then cancel the position of the top scholar. As for asking Miss Wenxi to suppress her cultivation and fight me... it is even more unnecessary. On the Little Saint List, Miss Wenxi and I will have a fight sooner or later."

"Therefore, asking Miss Wenxi to suppress her cultivation is a bit insulting. It's better not to be the top scholar."

"So, Anle is also unwilling to fight with Miss Wenxi."

The words that are neither humble nor arrogant, carrying the pressure released by Tong Diao Temple, are lightly described, and linger in the palace like a little joke.

If you feel that it is not fair, then cancel the position of the top scholar.

It's better not to be the top scholar.

Anle's words made the expressions of the A and B list Jinshi below become more and more complicated.

And in the temple, the emotions of all officials suddenly became uproarious.

The Zhao family emperor sat on the throne, his eyes becoming increasingly cold.

He seemed to have not expected that Anle and Ye Wenxi would both reject his proposal.

He had clearly given Anle a step and a gift to challenge the top scholar.

But Anle's words did not show how much importance he attached to the top scholar position.

Without this top scholar, Anle's legendary path would naturally collapse, and his qualification to talk to the Saint Master would also be deprived. How could he be so calm?

Suddenly, the Zhao family emperor inexplicably felt a hint of disgust.

It was as if he had seen Ye Longsheng, who had repeatedly defied his will.

However, the Zhao family emperor did not show this disgust. He leaned back in his chair, his eyes lightly scanning, and Tong Diao Si beside him became more and more powerful, as if a real mountain was pressing down, trying to bend Anle and Ye Wenxi, who were standing upright, and lower their proud heads towards him.

However, Anle and Ye Wenxi both stood straight.

After a moment.

The Emperor of Zhao gently slapped his palm on the guard, and suddenly there was a sense of unquestionable momentum on his body: "Since you two don't want to compete, then forget it. Since Anle is the champion of the civil and military examinations, he will be the first place, Ye Wenxi will be the second place, and Wang Qilin will be the third place."

"No need to discuss anything."

As soon as the words came out, all the civil and military officials below stopped talking.

Even Qin Xiang did not raise any objections, because he knew that since the emperor had said so at this moment, if he came out to disobey, it would definitely be bad luck.

Although Anle was the first place, he disobeyed the emperor's intention, which made the emperor feel like a thorn in his heart, and Qin Lishi also achieved his goal.

Li Youan, Ouyang Xiangru, Madam Hua and others had never thought that the matter would suddenly pass so lightly.

The Emperor of Zhao did not continue to deal with this matter.

However, Anle's words just now did block the Emperor of Zhao from continuing to give orders. After all, the champion of the civil and military examinations was born under his own eyes. If he continued to question, wouldn't it be considered that there was something wrong with the Emperor of Zhao's eyes?

Outside the Tianxuan Palace, the pressure suddenly dissipated.

Anle and Ye Wenxi smiled at each other as if they were in tacit understanding just now.

The Emperor of Zhao sat on the throne.

The atmosphere in the temple was solemn.

Tong Diao Si, who was on the side of the throne, stepped out slowly, and the spear, sword and bow behind him suddenly began to emit a majestic magic weapon aura.

Buzz buzz buzz...

There was a flash of light.

The spear, sword and longbow were immediately enveloped by the majestic aura and energy, floating to the center of the Tianxuan Palace.

The civil and military officials retreated and stood quietly on both sides.

Everyone's heart was shaken, looking at the three floating treasures with complicated expressions.

The top three in the palace test can be rewarded with magic weapons.

This is also the highlight of the Palace Examination.

However, no one expected that the champion of this Palace Examination... would be a young man that no one had ever thought of before.

A young man who is invincible, on the road of legend, and extremely brilliant.

Originally, everyone thought that the purpose of Qin Xiang's promotion of Ding Fengbo as a reward for the Palace Examination was to force the Lin family.

Now, Anle, who has a very close relationship with the Lin family, has become the champion, and Qin Xiang's plan is likely to fail.

Tong Diao Si took a step forward, and his purple robe rustled.

His eyes were sharp.

He looked outside the Tianxuan Palace and spoke in a sharp voice.

"The winner of the Palace Examination, Wang Qilin, will be rewarded in the palace!"

Wang Qilin was dressed in gorgeous clothes, and his body seemed to be burning with flames. He held his head high and stepped up the stairs step by step, crossing the white jade danchi.

Under the gaze of the civil and military officials, he stepped into the palace.

Facing the high throne, he clasped his fists and saluted.

On the throne.

The emperor of the Zhao family raised his lips and said a few words. After Tong Diao Si lowered his eyebrows and bowed his head, a hint of surprise seemed to flash across his white and beardless face.

Then he walked to the front, looked at Wang Qilin who was clasping his fists below, and spoke again in a sharp voice.

"The emperor said that Wang Qilin's son performed well in the imperial examination and won the third place in the spring examination. He was specially granted the sword "Ding Fengbo"..."

The words fell.

Wang Qilin's scalp tingled when he heard the title, and he raised his head in disbelief. What the hell?

The whole palace fell into silence.

On the throne, the Zhao family emperor had a playful look in his eyes.
