Cultivation: Overturning the Rain and Turning the Clouds

The eunuch who declared the decree had a bitter look on his face. He had served the emperor for decades and had read countless imperial edicts. It was probably the first time he met a courtier as tyrannical as Wan Dong.

The content of Bai Zhenshan's imperial decree was similar to Wan Dong's expectation.At the beginning of the imperial decree, Wan Dong's young man was scolded for being crazy, ignorant of the general situation, and humiliating his ministers!To openly disobey the will, it is simply rebellious, and the words are extremely severe!

Fortunately, Wan Dong was not standing in front of Bai Zhenshan at this time, otherwise he would have been drowned by his spittle.From the eunuch's reading, Wan Dong could fully understand how angry Bai Zhenshan was when he drafted this imperial decree!

But after some harsh reprimands, Bai Zhenshan's tone suddenly softened.It is not unforgivable to say that Wan Dong is young and energetic and impulsive because he failed to accurately understand his difficulties and intentions as the emperor, so he acted impulsively.

Immediately followed by a series of persuasive advice, Nian Wandong wrote that Nian Wandong is the first offender this time, and he has contributed to the country, so he will not be severely punished, only a one-year salary!

After hearing the imperial decree, the corners of Wan Dong's mouth twitched slightly, revealing a sneer, let alone a one-year fine, even if it was a lifetime fine, he would not frown.There was loud thunder, but little rain. It seemed that Bai Zhenshan had already realized something from Wan Dong's thunderous anger, and he was considered smart.

According to the usual practice, after the eunuch announcing the decree finished announcing the decree, the minister who received the decree would give a generous reward, so the eunuch who declared the decree would stay for a while after reading the decree.But the eunuch who announced the decree, just after reading the decree, handed the imperial decree to Wan Dong, did not dare to stay for a second, turned around and left Dingshan Palace as if to escape, the situation was quite funny.

After the Xuanzhi eunuch left, Xu Wenchuan, Hu Jingqi, and Sun Daobai walked out of the study together.

Hu Jingqi looked at the imperial decree in Wan Dong's hand, turned to Xu Wenchuan and asked, "Is this the end of this matter?"

"The end? Hmph, I'm afraid this is just the beginning." Xu Wenchuan snorted, turned to look at Wan Dong, and asked solemnly, "Yao Ting, tell me, can we get through this year without incident?"

Wan Dong couldn't help but let out a sigh, and his expression was equally solemn, "That depends on God's will!"

"My lord, what are you and Yao Ting talking about? Why can't I understand?" Hu Jingqi was bewildered, and Sun Daobai was the same, bewildered.

Xu Wenchuan didn't explain to them, but shook his head and murmured, "You guys will understand this one day."

Hu Jingqi and Sun Daobai looked at each other, doubtful.

"Princess is here!" A clear voice resounded throughout the Dingshan Palace.

Xu Wenchuan smiled, and said, "Just as the Xuanzhi eunuch left, the princess arrived. What is this for? Hit a stick, and then give a sweet date to eat?"

When the princess arrived, Xu Wenchuan, Sun Daobai and Hu Jingqi couldn't hide anymore, and went out together with Wan Dong.The face has not been torn, and the necessary etiquette cannot be neglected.

As soon as the group of people greeted them halfway, they saw a large number of people coming in mighty manner.The leader was the smiling Princess Baidie, with Tang Xinyi beside her.Behind them, there is a pair of Fengxiang guards, carrying all kinds of boxes, full of gold, silver, treasures, beautiful jade and antiques, what a generous gift!

"The princess is here, and I have lost my way to welcome you. Please forgive me, Your Highness!" Xu Wenchuan gave a high praise, and bowed slightly to Princess Baidie, but did not kneel down.

It's not that Xu Wenchuan is arrogant, he has such qualifications, and Princess Baidie can't find reason for him.Sun Daobai, Hu Jingqi and Wan Dong couldn't be so arrogant, and all bowed down in unison.But Bai Die didn't wait for them to kneel down, so she kept refusing their courtesy.Wan Dong was not polite, he stood up abruptly, and then retreated behind Xu Wenchuan, without saying a word.

People who don't know think that Wan Dong knows how to be courteous, and he remains humble in front of his seniors and doesn't want to show off. But Bai Die and Tang Xinyi are people who know Wan Dong's temperament very well, and they know very well in their hearts that Wan Dong This kind of performance has nothing to do with humility at all, it just shows that Wan Dong is very upset now and doesn't want to talk to them.

Tang Xinyi and Princess Baidie couldn't help but glanced at each other. From each other's eyes, they could see the helplessness and bitterness in each other's heart.They came here at this time to 'put out the fire', but now it seems that the difficulty seems a bit too big.

"Hehe...Old prince, today Die'er came to visit your old man specially. I personally selected these small gifts for you. I hope you like them." He grabbed Xu Wenchuan's arm and smiled all over his face.Those who didn't know thought that Baidie was Xu Wenchuan's granddaughter.

Although Xu Wenchuan was very displeased with Bai Zhenshan's actions, he was not Wandong after all, and he had many entanglements, so he couldn't act completely willfully.No matter how upset I was, facing Princess Baidie's smiling face and the boxes of "olive branches" that Bai Zhenshan handed over, I had to force a smiley face, patted Baidie's hand, and said, "Princess, don't worry!" Thank you very much, old minister!"

"What is the old prince talking about? You are the number one meritorious service of our Qingyun Empire, and you are Die'er's elder. In fact, Die'er should have come to visit you a long time ago, but he has been entangled in trivial matters until today. Please invite the old prince Don't be offended."

"Grandpa, grandson still has things to do, so I'm leaving first." Wan Dong made no secret of his impatience and displeasure, taking advantage of the gap, he said to Xu Wenchuan.

Before Xu Wenchuan could answer, Princess Baidie hurriedly said, "Master Xu, don't rush to leave. I have a gift for you here in this palace. I guarantee you will like it. Xinyi, take out the gift quickly."

Tang Xinyi snorted, and immediately took out a sword from among the piles of presents.

Not to mention the quality of this precious sword, just looking at the scabbard of this precious sword, it is extraordinary.It was actually made of a whole piece of beautiful jade which was drilled, carved and ground.

In order not to make the jade scabbard too monotonous, dozens of bright gemstones of different colors are dotted on it. At first glance, it looks like stars are embedded on the scabbard, which is extraordinarily gorgeous and eye-catching.

Xu Wenchuan, Hu Jingqi, and Sun Daobai are all people who have seen the world. Seeing such a gorgeous scabbard, they couldn't help but gasp.What kind of divine weapon is qualified to be contained in such a scabbard?

Soon, Tang Xinyi revealed the answer, only to hear a choking sound, like a dragon's chant, stretching on and on, a ray of light that was as cold as autumn water slipped out of the scabbard silently like a spirit snake, instantly Suddenly, a slight chill spread to the surroundings.

"Ice and iron under the sea!?" Xu Wenchuan was the first to blurt out.

Princess Baidie laughed complacently, and said, "The old prince is really well-informed, and he can tell at a glance that this sword is made of ice and iron under the sea!"

This ice cold iron under the sea is also a very rare metal in the ordinary world, and its value is comparable to that of purple gold.This kind of metal is only produced on the bottom of the deep sea. It is infiltrated by the cold air of the sea all the year round. Not only is it extremely hard, but it also has a natural cold air.Even in the fiery July, people can feel the chill like falling into an ice cave, which is very magical.

The rarity of seabed cold iron is even higher than that of purple gold.Because purple gold, although rare, can still be collected by manpower, but the cold iron of the seabed only exists in the deep seabed where manpower cannot reach, and there is no way to mine it.The ice and iron on the bottom of the sea that exist in the world are all wrapped up in the shallow sea by earthquakes or tsunami waves, and then found by people by chance.

In the eyes of Xu Wenchuan, Sun Daobai, and Hu Jingqi, this magical weapon made of cold iron under the sea may be a rare treasure, but in the eyes of Wan Dong, there is nothing extraordinary about it.Compared with the purple-gold dragon gun he specially made for Wan Haoxiong, the purple-gold double sabers he made for Wan Youqi are completely inferior, and even compared to the purple-gold magic weapon he made for Luo Xiao and the others, there is no advantage at all.

However, the scabbard polished with beautiful jade caught Wan Dong's attention.If such beautiful jade could be used to create a pair of scabbards for Wan Youqi's purple gold swords, how perfect would it be?It's a pity that this jade is different from metal, it can only be polished, but it cannot be melted and recast, which makes Wan Dong feel a little regretful.

"Your Highness, why have I never heard of such a sword hidden in the palace?" Xu Wenchuan asked in surprise.

Bai Die smiled wryly, and said, "My father is seriously ill, Qiu Wanli seized my royal family in every possible way, and of course there is no place for such a magical weapon. To tell you the truth, we found this sword from Qiu Wanli's treasury. "

Hu Jingqi and Xu Wenchuan looked at each other suddenly.With the downfall of Qiu Wanli, the royal family must have found many treasures from Qiu Wanli. This sword is probably just a drop in the bucket.

"Yao Ting, this is the princess' wish, what do you think?" Xu Wenchuan said to Wan Dong with a smile.

If you don't take advantage of the door-to-door delivery, you are a fool!Since Bai Zhenshan is so dishonest, if he is polite to him, isn't he taking advantage of himself?Wan Dong didn't even think about it, so he nodded and said, "That's right! Thank you so much, Your Highness, Princess."

While talking, Wan Dong stretched out his hand to take the sword, but Tang Xinyi abruptly took it back, leaving Wan Dong empty.

Wan Dong frowned immediately, what was this for, did he deliberately tease him?

"Hehe...Don't worry, Master Xu! It's not rude to come and go. Her Royal Highness gave such an incomparably precious magic weapon to Lord Xu. Lord Xu must come up with some decent return. " Tang Xinyi said with a charming smile.

"Return the gift?" Wan Dong sneered in his heart, and he knew that Princess Baidie's gift of the sword was not simple.Putting on a look of embarrassment, Wan Dong said quietly, "What Commander Tang said is reasonable, but I don't have anything valuable, and I really don't have any treasures to hand out. If this is the case, then please take this sword back, Your Highness the Princess." Bar."

"How can I do that? Is there any reason to take back what I sent out?" Princess Baidie hurriedly asked.
