Eternal Sword

Chapter 216 Reprimand
After Sun Tianlu and the others left, Chen Tang came to Yuan Qingmo and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, the King of Wei, for your help."

"Stop it."

Yuan Qingmo waved his hand, dispelling Chen Tang's saluting hands, and said, "Fortunately, the emperor's edict arrived in time, otherwise, I really don't know what would have happened."

"Is the Guardian Order so powerful?"

Chen Tang asked.

Yuan Qingmo said: "The right protector of Xuantian Sect is also the Minister of Taichang Temple, one of the nine temples. He is in charge of the ancestral temple sacrifices, rituals and music, astronomy, and clothing."

Chen Tang was secretly shocked.

No wonder the Xuantian Sect has such a great influence in Qian Country.

The followers of Xuantian Sect have even entered the temple and are listed as one of the nine temples, occupying such an important position.

I'm afraid this is just the tip of the iceberg of what he knows.

To put it simply, Taichang Temple is in charge of some ancestral temple sacrifices and superstitious matters.

The Minister of the Ministry of Rites used the power of the ancestral temple system to sometimes even force the emperor to compromise.

"Chen Tang, follow me into the palace."

The commander of the Xuanwu Division gave a reminder.

"Let's go, we'll talk on the way."

Yuan Qingmo nodded, and together with Chen Tang, followed the many Xuanwu guards and headed north along Suzaku Street.

"Did you inform His Majesty in advance?"

Chen Tang asked in a low voice.

"No."

Yuan Qingmo looked strange and said, "I didn't expect that Sun Tianlu could ask for a law-protecting order and dare to stop you in the streets of the capital. I don't know why the emperor suddenly summoned you to the palace."

"It must be Qingmu."

Chen Tang thought to himself.

"How is Changsun's injury? Is it serious?" Chen Tang asked.

Yuan Qingmo said, "He was beaten badly, his bones were broken, and he almost lost half his life. Fortunately, the Changsun family and the Murong family were wealthy, and they bought a lot of rare treasures and elixirs, which saved him."

"As for whether he can recover to the way he was before, it depends on him."

Chen Tang turned around, glanced back at the barbarian boy, and asked, "Is this Sanghan really that powerful?"

"Very strong."

Speaking of this person, Yuan Qingmo looked solemn and said, "Even the First God of War has a very high opinion of him, saying that if this boy can grow up, he will become a master in the future!"

"If you want to face him, be careful. He is proficient in many kinds of boxing and kicking techniques, has great strength, and may even have some hidden cards that he hasn't revealed yet."

Chen Tang nodded.

Below the fifth rank, there is no need for fancy things, the real test is shown in fists and feet.

The greater the strength, the greater the chance of winning.

Therefore, this Sangge had to cultivate to the fourth level to sweep away the warriors of the same level!
"Go north along Suzaku Street, and you will reach Suzaku Gate at the end. After entering Suzaku Gate, you will reach the inner city."

Yuan Qingmo said, "Almost all the offices of the imperial court are located in the inner city. The three masters, three officials, four officials and nine temples are all in the inner city. Oh, and the Xuantian Temple in the capital is also in the inner city."

Chen Tang had also heard of the Three Masters and Three Dukes in his previous life.

The three masters are probably the Grand Tutor, the Grand Preceptor and the Grand Protector.

The three dukes are the Grand Commandant, the Prime Minister, and the Chief Censor.

Regarding the Three Dukes, the titles of each dynasty were slightly different, but their responsibilities were roughly similar.

Chen Tang smiled and asked, "It should be the fifth division now, right?"

"good."

Yuan Qingmo nodded.

Chen Tang could see that the events in Yanyu Village had a significant impact on Yuan Qingmo.

He originally kept to himself, had no power or influence, never got involved in state affairs, and was determined to stay away from the government.

He only has the title of King of Wei, but even a young marshal dares to fight him!
He watched his friends around him fall into trouble, but he was powerless to do anything.

After returning to Beijing to recuperate for a while, he happened to be summoned by the emperor to inquire about the case of the ghost mother. He also learned that the Qilin Department was going to be established, so he recommended himself and successfully joined the Qilin Department. He was also the one who pushed forward the case of the ghost mother.

After passing the Suzaku Gate, Yuan Qingmo pointed out to Chen Tang the approximate directions and locations of each mansion.

"correct."

When talking about the Imperial Household Department, Yuan Qing smiled and said, "You should know the Imperial Household Department Minister."

"Oh?"

Chen Tang hesitated for a moment and asked, "What's your surname, Li?"

"Not bad!"

Yuan Qingmo said, "Li Yan was originally the governor of Wu'an County in Pingzhou. He made great contributions during the Pingzhou rebellion. When the emperor heard that he was from Liangzhou, he transferred him to the capital to manage the Imperial Household Department."

Liangzhou is rich in war horses.

The Taifu Temple was mainly responsible for the management of war horse husbandry, including the streets, carriages and road-related matters in the city.

Yuan Qingmo said, "The Qilin Division was just established and was short of top-quality horses. So they went to the Imperial Household Department to select war horses, but someone interfered and some accidents occurred."

"It was only after Qingmu stepped forward and asked the Minister of the Imperial Household for help that the warhorse was successfully selected."

When mentioning Qingmu, Yuan Qingmo paused slightly, looked at Chen Tang with a half-smile, and asked, "You two haven't seen each other for a long time, right?"

"Fortunately."

Chen Tang smiled and said, "A few months."

Yuan Qingmo joked, "Really? At Qingmu's place, I thought you hadn't seen each other for more than ten years."

The two chatted as they continued walking forward.

After passing through the inner city, they reached the imperial palace, and everyone had to dismount and walk.

Led by the commander-in-chief of the Xuanwu Division, everyone passed through the front hall and headed towards the middle hall.

Yuan Qingmo frowned slightly.

Normally, the front hall is where the emperor holds court, and he meets with his ministers and officials in the front hall.

The central hall is the emperor's resting area.

As for the rear hall, it is the emperor's bedroom.

Not long after, under the leadership of the commander-in-chief of the Xuanwu Division, everyone came to the outside of an ancient room.

As soon as I stood still, I heard a stern scolding voice coming from inside.

I can't explain why.

This voice seemed to be filled with a kind of magic and revealed endless majesty, as if it came from the distant heaven. It made people unable to help but listen and worship it, feeling awe and not daring to refute it.

The commander-in-chief of the Xuanwu Division was about to knock on the door to report, but when he heard the voice, he was stunned and stood there.

Chen Tang was also originally affected by this.

But he focused his mind on Niwan, calmed his breath and concentrated his mind, and he woke up instantly!

He glanced at Yuan Qingmo beside him.

At this moment, Yuan Qingmo frowned, as if he was fighting against some mysterious force.

Chen Tang gently pushed his shoulder.

Yuan Qingmo suddenly woke up and came to his senses.

It was not until this moment that the two of them could hear the sounds in the room clearly.

"emperor!"

"You were stubborn and self-righteous, disobeying your master's orders and insisting on thoroughly investigating the case of the Ghost Mother. This caused damage to the reputation of the court and Xuantian Sect, and the consequences were so severe that the government and the country were in turmoil."

"I have advised you not to hold the Qilin Ranking, but you still insisted on doing it. Now you are in a dilemma. The reputation of Qian Kingdom has been severely damaged, and the Qilin Ranking has become a laughing stock! There must be a will of heaven in everything!"

"You have repeatedly disobeyed the master's orders and ignored the overall situation. If you continue to do so, there will be ominous signs and disasters will occur frequently in various parts of Kyushu. By then, you will regret it!"

Chen Tang frowned when he heard this.

Who dares to speak to the emperor like this?
What's more, the tone of voice was almost like a scolding or a threat!
Yuan Qingmo took a deep breath and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Yuan Qingmo has brought Chen Tang here!"
