One person, one sword, I have guarded the lonely city for 70 years

Chapter 271

The eunuchs didn't look at much and didn't say much, keeping their heads down all the time, after delivering the documents, they saluted Song Yun and them, and then retreated respectfully.

Jia Xuan looked at the documents thoughtfully, but Song Yun became interested in these eunuchs.

"All eunuchs are used in the palace. It is estimated that there are more female relatives. The emperor has lived for 4 years. How many concubines and descendants must there be? Why have I never heard of it? I have never seen a few princes."

"Your Majesty has no offspring." Jia Xuan shook his head, "How can it be so easy to have an offspring when an immortal combines with a mortal? Your Majesty doesn't seem to have any intention of establishing a crown prince."

Martial Dao Renxian, lifespan is measured in tens of thousands of years, no one knows how long he can live, at least for now the Supreme Emperor still doesn't look old.

Such an invincible and long-lived emperor would really rule the country forever, so naturally he didn't need a prince.

"Your Majesty once said that there is no family of a thousand years in the world. In fact, it is like this. There is no royal family, and there is no enduring family. The only one who can stand for thousands of years is the emperor himself."

Song Yun nodded. He could already see that the Great Xia Emperor had a strong desire for control, and he did not allow any existence that would affect the concentration of his power.

In the whole world, I am the only one who respects me, and the rest are just ants, cattle and horses.

It is reasonable for such a person to prevent all forces from gaining power.

The two chatted briefly about the situation, but the more they chatted, the less interested they became.At present, the emperor is firmly in control of the overall situation, as stable as Mount Tai, and any casual door is just a small fight, and it is difficult to see the hope of change.

After several jars of wine were finished, Song Yun got up and prepared to leave.

"After the court meeting, His Majesty's footsteps may quicken, you need to be careful." Jia Xuan reminded.

If the Vientiane Instrument is really promoted smoothly, harsher ruling methods will definitely follow, and Song Yun knows this very well.

"Then I will try to climb to the tenth floor of the Daofa Collection Tower in the next few days."

Three days later, there will be the Grand Court Meeting, and the situation will become increasingly tense, so there may not be a chance to study with peace of mind.

Unexpectedly, Jia Xuan seriously reminded: "Don't attack the tenth floor, at least not in the near future."

"Could it be dangerous?" Song Yun narrowed his eyes, remembering Jiang Xinlian's words before.

When going to Jiangfu, the collection order once said that she can exempt herself from the test of climbing the ninth floor, but the tenth floor is out of her control, and whether she can climb or not is up to her own discretion.

Jia Xuan explained: "It is said that once one possesses the realms of Human Immortal and Yang God at the same time, one can become an Immortal Emperor and reach the real realm of immortality and immortality."

"It's almost impossible for a human immortal to practice Taoism from scratch. I don't have any hope for this, so I can only concentrate on improving martial arts."

"Your Majesty should have started to practice Taoism a long time ago, but it will definitely not be a normal way of cultivation!"

"The tenth floor of the Daofa Collection Tower contains the real secrets of the Yang God. There were a few people who were favored by heaven and succeeded in climbing to the top, but they disappeared soon..."

Song Yun's eyelids twitched, "You suspect—"

"Anyway, it's right to be cautious." Jia Xuan waved his hand, "Try not to expose your talent in Taoism in front of His Majesty."

Song Yun nodded, "I understand, it's best to be careful, so let's not go to the Dao Fa Dian Zang Pagoda."

After saying goodbye, leaving Tianwang Mansion, standing on the bustling street, Song Yun realized that he didn't even have a place to live in Yangcheng.

During this period of time, either reading in the tower or going out to perform tasks, there is not a single day that is free.

"Forget it, go back to the headquarters of the Xiewei Guard first, and go to court with the generals of the Xiewei Guard in three days."

Song Yun returned to the military headquarters, found Zhu Xiewei's small building, asked for a secluded room, and sat cross-legged thinking.

"Proving the way by killing is easy to say, but how to break through the limit and walk out of your own path?"

He slowly closed his eyes, fell into deep thought, and his whole body was as still as a stone sculpture.

One day, two days, three days...

After Song Yun explained, the generals of Zhu Xiewei didn't come to bother them until the morning of the third day when they knocked on the door and said:
"General Song, you are ready to attend the Great Court Meeting."

Song Yun suddenly opened his eyes.

Sitting quietly for three days without moving a muscle did not have any effect on his body, but he seemed more energetic.

When he went out, he saw that several generals of Zhu Xiewei had arrived and were busy putting on a new full set of armor.

Nan Gongshuo was still handling cases out of town, but Zhang Yue came back and finally had an acquaintance.

Song Yun listened to Zhang Yue talking about the precautions for going to court, and at the same time put on the special green pine pattern battle armor made by Zhu Xiewei.

Touching the bronze long sword on her waist, she was a little hesitant when Zhang Yue saw it and said:
"If you want to bring it, you can bring it. You can bring a saber and a sword to the court. Don't bring heavy weapons. It looks indecent."

Daxia's control over this aspect is quite loose. After all, the emperor is an invincible and powerful man, and he is not afraid of his subjects carrying weapons at all.

Even, Song Yun suspected that the emperor wished for someone to bring a sharp weapon to cause chaos, just to give him a reason to take action.

The etiquette required to go to court is very cumbersome, and even the armor must be completely in place, and the sleeves must not be wrinkled.

Song Yun asked the officers around him to help, and after tossing for half an hour, he was ready to go and followed Zhang Yue into the carriage.

Along the way, I could see many fellow travelers, all in carriages, heading towards the palace.

Although it is possible to fly directly there, flying on such an occasion is tantamount to provoking the emperor.

Many of the high-ranking officials who participated in the Great Court Meeting were venerables, but they all sat in the carriage honestly to show their dignity.

When you arrive in front of the palace, get out of the car and walk, first line up and show your waist badge, and you can enter after being checked by the guards.

It was the first time for Song Yun to come to the palace, and he didn't say anything when he saw the majestic palace walls. When he saw these guards, he couldn't help feeling:
"For a martial arts master to act as a gate guard, this is quite a grand occasion."

Zhang Yue said with a light smile: "Don't look down on me, just this job, I don't know how many masters are vying for it."

"The third-rank official in front of the prime minister's gate is even more unusual in front of the palace gate. He often has the opportunity to show his face in front of His Majesty. Once he is favored, it will be a step up to the sky."

Behind the main entrance of the palace was a spacious avenue. Officials walked on the road in twos and threes, only occasionally chatting in a low voice, or simply transmitted voices, and no one dared to make a loud noise.

After walking for half an hour, they arrived at the destination - Taixuan Hall.

The golden roof, vermilion columns, doors and windows, blue eaves, white jade-colored stone steps and railings... the details are covered with rhombus lattice patterns and cloud and dragon reliefs, which are extremely luxurious and magnificent.

The civil and military officials were separated, lined up in an orderly manner according to their grades, entered the Taixuan Hall one by one, and stood under the six golden pillars wrapped around dragons.

Zhu Xiewei is an important army directly under the emperor, Nan Gongshuo is not here, Song Yun, as the first lieutenant general, is equivalent to the representative of Zhu Xiewei, ranking first among all the second-rank military officers, and has attracted many people's attention.
