Chapter 105: Invitation to the Celestial Ceremony
On this day, not long after the Zhuyue Festival decorations were changed, people gathered at Yujing Terrace again.
Different from the Zhuyue Festival, although they were in a good mood this time, compared to the relaxation and happiness during the Zhuyue Festival, the Qingxian Dian ceremony brought them more awe and hope.
The awe is that on this day every year, Liyue people can meet Prince Yan, the emperor who has ruled Liyue for 3,700 years.
The hope is that Lord Yan will appear and bring policies and tips for doing business. This is their opportunity.
Tianquan Xing Ningguang, who presided over this ceremony, even put on a solemn costume, with a solemn expression and was more serious than ever before.
The remaining seven stars also stayed behind, quietly watching the condensed light on the stage.
"..."
Seeing more and more people from Liyue surrounding Yujing Terrace, Ningguang's eyes darkened and he exhaled.
Starting today, everything will change.
"By the way, do you know why Lord Yan wants to hold the Immortal Invitation Ceremony in advance this year?"
As the crowd gathered, people naturally began to whisper.
"How can we know what Prince Yan is thinking, but I guess this year's policy needs to be changed, and it is so important that Prince Yan himself must take action."
After hearing the question, someone spoke up.
"Maybe the emperor wants to see us?"
In the crowd, a girl in gorgeous clothes spoke.
Hearing this, people subconsciously looked towards her.
Hmm...well, for a young lady from a famous family, these words are worthy of her character...
"I think that since the Zhuyue Festival has just passed, Prince Yan must have wanted to give us a surprise when he showed up at this time...just like the red envelope I gave my child yesterday."
A middle-aged man touched his smooth head and said something honest.
Send a surprise?
This is quite possible!
After hearing the words of this bald middle-aged man, the people at the scene suddenly became noisy.
Among the crowd, only Ningzhe had his eyes blank and a dull expression.
"..."
Looking at the crowd below who started to get excited for no apparent reason, Ning Guang let out an imperceptible sigh.
Looking at the sky, the sun has risen to the sky.
The crowd has arrived, and the time has come.
"...the auspicious time has come."
Ning Guang spoke softly, and the two Qun Yu Pavilion secretaries beside Ning Guang immediately understood, bowed respectfully, and then left.
Immediately afterwards, Ningguang raised his hands, and gems composed of rock elements were immediately generated from the surroundings, rotating around Ningguang.
The gems bloomed with golden light, like lights one after another.
Then, the condensed light finger pointed at the huge incense burner in the middle, and the rock element gems also flew away and were embedded in the incense burner.
In an instant, the ancient incense burner bloomed with a beam of light that could cover the sky, rising straight into the sky, forming a huge vortex high in the sky.
"..."
Looking at this scene, Ningguang's expression did not change.
Next, how will the emperor enter the scene...
The next second, a dragon's roar came from high in the sky, seeming to announce the emperor's appearance to the people of Liyue.
However...immediately afterwards, the golden dragon fell from the sky and landed in the center of Yujing Terrace, smashing the incense burner.
The mighty dragon lowered its head here, and all its former majesty and vitality disappeared.
"..."
Perhaps the scene in front of them was too unexpected, and the crowd watching the scene was silent, and they seemed to have no reaction.
That giant dragon on the ground...is it Prince Yan?
Ning Guang could not hide the surprise on her face, but she quickly reacted and walked into the dragon body to take a closer look.
Did the Emperor...really choose this method?
The moment he detected the dragon's aura, Ningguang understood.
Soon, Ningguang stood up and looked at the crowd with a serious expression.
"The emperor has been killed, the whole place is sealed off!"
The next second, the Qianyan Army and several alchemists stationed at Yujing Terrace appeared from behind and completely surrounded the scene.
"Wait! The emperor was killed?!"
It wasn't until they were surrounded at Yujing Terrace that anyone reacted.
"I don't believe it! This must be the emperor joking with us, right? It must be a joke!"
Following the person who spoke, the mood at the scene seemed to be aroused. Everyone was speaking loudly, unable to believe the scene before them.
In the crowd, Ningzhe sighed softly and raised his right hand slightly.
Immediately afterwards, an invisible and intangible force attached itself to people.
"..."
Under the influence of this spiritual force, people's emotions stabilized slightly.
"Lord Tianquan, can Qixing give Liyue Port an explanation about this matter?"
After calming down, someone spoke to Ningguang.
explain?
"Of course... Qixing has the obligation and will definitely find out the truth behind the emperor's murder."
Ning Guang looked at the people at the scene, and his tone was as calm as ever, "As for the scene, everyone present is asked to cooperate with the Qianyan Army and the alchemists to prevent a situation that no one wants to see happen."
As he spoke, Qianyan Army had completed the blockade of the scene, and the alchemists also began to arrange props.
No one at the scene tried to slip away, everyone knew... In this case, if it really has nothing to do with you, then absolutely don't make matters worse.
"Old man...you still chose this method."
Ningzhe, who was hiding in the crowd, had no change in his expression, but his tone had a hint of inexplicable emotion.
He announced his "fall" in public, and then... handed everything over to Qixing.
There is no doubt that this is a big gamble.
This time, because Sora didn't come to the scene, how will the Fools' plan change?
The scene of the hero saving the beauty is gone, what will be Dadalia’s next move?
The "passing" of the emperor was just a trigger, and everything has just begun now.
...
Hall of Rebirth.
Mr. Zhongli was sitting on a chair, holding a glass of expensive-looking tea in his hand, with a smile on his face.
He is in a very good mood now.
On the one hand, it was because his test against Qixing and Liyue people had officially begun, and on the other hand, it was because Hu Tao had gone out to pick up the note early in the morning.
No one disturbed him, so he was naturally happy and at ease.
Um...
It's almost lunch time, and I don't know if the young executive from Foolish People will come to treat him to dinner today.
The last time I ate was Xinyue Xuan, and the last time I ate was Liuliting... Although the glass vegetables and moon vegetables are both good, compared to Wanmintang where Xiangling is on duty, they are still lacking a bit of flavor.
It has been decided that the next time [Master] comes to see him again, he will go to Wanmin Hall.
"Is Mr. Zhongli here? Mr. Zhongli!"
At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly came from outside the gate of the Hall of Rebirth.
The voice is full of energy, and now it even sounds unconceivably excited.
"Well...that executive officer."
Putting the tea cup down gently, Zhongli stood up and simply adjusted his clothes.
He must have received news of the death of King Yujingtaiyan when he came at this time.
Chapter completed!
