Chitose words

Chapter 417: Fighting in front of the palace
Emperor Jing was not angry when he heard this. He just smiled faintly and then pointedly said:

"Yes, since it is the birthday of the 'Goddess', it is indeed appropriate and understandable for the high priest to be present. I did not think carefully before."

The emperor chuckled slightly in his heart.

However, what if his sister is no longer the goddess of Shentai Palace in the future?

Haha, even if you in Nanxu are the number one in martial arts in the Four Realms, you are still just an outsider after all!
What identity and position do they have to get involved in the family affairs of their Fu family members?
The emperor smiled brightly, but it was just this time this year. It didn't matter if he gave way to Nanxu.

It's ridiculous to think about it. So what if the Nanxu High Priest is a martial arts wizard who stands at the pinnacle of martial arts in the world?

So what if he is the leader of the number one sect in the world, one person inferior to ten thousand people?

Although he is a great priest who is respected by thousands of people and regarded as a god, in the final analysis he is just a common man like them.

He's just a weakling who doesn't even dare to express what he loves in his heart!
And he is the emperor, so he still has some tolerance for others.

A flash of pity flashed in Fu Jingyan's eyes.

The high priest of Nanxu thought that relying on the so-called "fellowship" and the status of "priest goddess", he could trap his sister in the Shentai Palace to be his companion for the rest of her life?
What a joke, he thought it was quite beautiful!

Before becoming the goddess of the Shentai Palace and the "Thousand-year-old Sword Immortal", his sister was first the princess of the Southern Dynasties and the Princess Tianchen of the imperial dynasty!
Emperor Jing smiled softly.

The imperial sister can no longer be the goddess of the Shentai Palace, and she can no longer even be the strongest person in the world and the swordsman of the generation.

However, as long as her last name is "Fu", then she will definitely be his sister!
In the past, when he was young and incompetent, he was hampered by others in the inner courtyard of Shengong, and he could never keep the people and things he wanted to keep.

He could only witness others asking for and getting everything he wanted, and even his father's favorite concubine dared not respect him.

Be it his mother or his elder sister, he could only watch them go or stay.

However, it is different now!

Nothing is what it used to be!
He, Fu Jingyan, is the current emperor of the Southern Dynasty, an emperor who speaks his mind to the letter!
The person he wants to protect will definitely be able to protect him - just like the concubine Wan Luoer who was born into a poor family.

The person he wants to keep will definitely be able to keep him - just like his sister-in-law who has a heart as high as the sky.

What's more, he still has that "thing" with him, who can stop him?
——No one can stop him.

Including his sister, and also the arrogant high priest Nan Xu of Shentai Palace in front of him!

At this moment, there was another movement outside the palace.

Yuan Ai's new "adopted son" a few years ago made a gesture to his godfather who was accompanying him outside the palace.

Since there is no blood inheritance among the eunuchs in the palace, most of them like to form sworn relatives.

The great eunuchs in the city that never sleeps are always surrounded by some lesser eunuchs who flatter them and form a sworn father-son relationship.

In the palace, they can not only take care of each other, but also act as each other's horns.

Although Yuan Ai was young, because he was a close minister of the emperor, there was no shortage of young eunuchs around him who wanted to flatter him and want to be his father.

Some eunuchs who were even much older than him came to ask for his favor and wanted to be his "sons".

But Yuan Ai also had a plan in mind.

He doesn't look down on ordinary little eunuchs, and he won't randomly accept dozens or twenty godsons like other big eunuchs.

So I picked and picked, but I only accepted a kid who was attractive to my eyes, who was quite smart and had a simple mind.

Seeing his fourteen-year-old adopted son Yuan Duobao gesturing to him, Yuan Ai nodded to him calmly.

Then, he bent down close to the emperor's ear and whispered:

"Your Majesty, in accordance with your wishes, Concubine Shu is accompanying His Highness Qiantose. At this time, the two nobles are almost at the Yaochi Palace."

The emperor's eyes lit up, he chuckled twice and said:
"understood."

Then, he looked at the many courtiers and nobles sitting below.

“I am here to entertain you all today, firstly to celebrate my Halloween this year and my imperial sister’s Thousand Autumn Festival;

Secondly, there is great news and I would like to congratulate all of you. "

The high priest of Nanxu raised his eyebrows slightly and quietly turned his gaze to the emperor.

Not only him, almost everyone present looked at the emperor in surprise.

You must know that Emperor Jing is an emperor who does not show his emotions or anger. It is rare to see him so cheerful and even a little bit excited.

I saw Fu Jingyan smiling as he announced the "good news":
“My sister and the mainstay of the dynasty, Princess Tianchen, has been released from confinement recently.

The eldest princess originally intended to officially resign from her position as the goddess of the Shentai Palace at the age of eighteen. However, an old injury recurred that year, so she had to retreat into seclusion.

Fortunately, now that the two years have expired, the eldest princess has recovered from her old injuries and is getting older.

So he decided to formally take off his divine robe and return to Zhaoge in his golden years. This is——"

"--His Majesty."

Before the emperor could finish his words, the high priest of Nanxu had already cut off the rest of his words.

The high priest of Shentai Palace, who had always been cool and self-possessed, now had nameless anger in his eyes.

He said coldly: "Your Majesty, the banquet has not started yet, why are you drunk?" The high priest of Nanxu's eyes were condensed, and his eyes passed over the three eunuchs behind the emperor.

"Your Majesty is drunk. How do you serve the people around you? Why don't you quickly help your Majesty go to the side hall to have a rest?"

Yuan Ai, Zeng Yidu, and Zou Wuxie looked at each other with their eyes closed, and they all saw a hint of anxiety and fear in each other's eyes.

But no one moved or dared to move.

The High Priest of Nanxu is certainly terrifying, but what about the wrath of the Emperor?
Emperor Jing looked at the high priest of Shentai Palace who dared to occupy the magpie's nest in the city that never sleeps with a half-smile, and said calmly:

"High Priest, you have overstepped your bounds."

The high priest of Nanxu smiled coolly and said:
"Oh? Really? Your Majesty, the Shentai Palace has been known to the world as a place of transformation since the day it was built.

Even when Emperor Tianchen Gaozu was in power, he respected the Shentai Palace and never interfered in the internal affairs of the Shentai Palace.

Your Majesty, you are the earthly emperor, but the goddess is an outsider. Now that Your Majesty is talking about foreign matters, isn't it trespassing? "

Although there was a smile on his face, there was no smile in his eyes.

At this time, there was a tense atmosphere in the hall.

Regardless of whether they are relatives of the emperor, courtiers or dignitaries, all of them are like gourds with sawed teeth, secretly thinking in horror, but no one dares to say a word.

Although they didn't know the previous situation, no one present was a fool, and they vaguely understood something after seeing this -

In this scene, it is obvious that His Majesty intends to let His Royal Highness Chitose return to the capital, but the High Priest of Nanxu is holding him captive!

This?
Some Tianchen veterans could not help but feel a little unhappy when they saw this.

Although the high priest of Nanxu is one of the best in the world, after all, there is a difference between monarch and minister. How can he bully the weak and use words to offend and coerce the emperor and Qiantose?

Even if the High Priest of Nanxu doesn't take His Majesty into his eyes, doesn't he also take His Majesty Qiantius, who is also in the Zixian Xuan Realm, into his eyes?

When it comes to martial arts realm, His Highness Qiantai is not inferior to him!

How could the high priest be so domineering?

Seeing this, an upright old bachelor of the Hanlin Academy couldn't help but said seriously:

"High Priest, although you have a noble status and respected status, Your Highness Chitose has worked hard for Sheji and Shentai Palace for many years, and now you are still suffering from injuries.

Since Your Highness intends to return to Zhaoge for some training and no longer wants to serve as the goddess of Shentai Palace, why should the high priest be so aggressive? "

Nanxu raised his eyebrows slightly. According to his temperament, he never bothered to explain to others.

So, he just said lightly:
"What if I insist on forcing others to make things difficult?"

The old bachelor of the Hanlin Academy was also a disciple of the Xie family in Xunyang. Hearing this, he immediately said righteously:

"If the high priest insists on embarrassing Chitose and His Majesty, even if the old man is bleeding on the spot, he must not sit idly by and ignore it!"

This is said with great passion!
Many civil servants in the Tianchen court were once disciples of the Xie family in Xunyang, or were disciples of the Xie family's disciples.

As the saying goes, the bones were broken and the tendons were connected. Seeing that the old bachelor who was about to retire was still so bloody and strong, they immediately spoke in support.

"That's right! Your Highness Chitose has worked hard for the country and the people's livelihood for many years. The Shentai Palace has the right for the goddess to choose whether to continue to serve the gods when she turns eighteen."

"The high priest does not allow the goddess to return home. This is too tyrannical!"

"That's right! If High Priest Feng Zhi were alive, he would definitely not embarrass Qiansui."

"Although you, the High Priest of Nanxu, are the best master in the world, you cannot make decisions on behalf of Chitose!"

"That's right! Princess Tianchen is the glory of our Southern Dynasty. She is a noble and noble person! Whether His Highness Chitose stays or goes, it is Chitose's own decision. No one else can interfere."

Seeing the excitement in the hall, the Bai family and his son looked at each other calmly and speechlessly.

Princess Tianchen has long been reduced to a handful of withered bones, so what's the point of these people arguing?
Princess Taiping Fu Jingyu sighed when she saw this:

"Emperor Jingci's sister. She is really simple and popular among the people."

Princess Pingyang was so jealous that her eyes almost turned red!

She is also the eldest princess of the Southern Dynasty and her father's daughter. Why does everyone praise and admire her?
Is it because she crawled out of Queen Xiaochun's belly?
If she is the legitimate daughter!
If she is also a legitimate daughter
The high priest of Nanxu, who was at the center of the incident, remained calm and did not become angry when the group attacked him.

His elegant and pure face always had a cold smile that had never been seen before, and he seemed to find the blushing and thick-necked looks of the people in front of him particularly funny.

It was his arrogant appearance that was too lazy to say a word to everyone, which further irritated those civil servants who pride themselves on their loyalty.

Everyone was dissatisfied, the high priest was too arrogant!

Unexpectedly, while they were quarreling in the palace, a clear female voice sounded from outside the palace:
"Master Liu is right. It should be up to me to decide whether to stay or go."

Everyone turned their heads in mild astonishment, and suddenly they saw a stunningly beautiful woman wearing the robe of the Goddess of the Shentai Palace, standing outside the hall and quietly watching the farce inside the hall.

this? !

Your Majesty was indeed right!

Their Royal Highness Princess Tianchen, the most glorious sword in the world in the Southern Dynasty, has really come out of seclusion? !
