Chapter Twenty-Five: The Chess Game
people around.Given Mr. Qin's current status, there should be a bustling street outside his door, not just flowers everywhere.It's creepy looking.Wu Yinquan, filled with questions, walked along the st...When the Emperor Qi ascended the throne at the time of Zihou (morning), he dismissed the court at Chen (noon).
And before the court meeting, the lord's "grace" would be sent to the Duke of Bo望's residence.
Thunder and rain, both are gifts from the king. Punishment cannot be avoided, and rewards cannot be refused.
Since you have promised to grant Chong Xuan Sheng's request, let him use his military achievements on the battlefield of Yang Country to exchange for a year of study at the Jixia Academy.
Zhongxuan had no right to refuse at all.
Even as soon as the imperial envoy arrived, he was to depart immediately.
Chong Xuan's troops pressed on relentlessly, rushing back to Linzi. However, their efforts were met with repeated rebuffs and cold indifference along the way.
> In order to give this bow, the Hill Mountain Bow, the most renowned bow in the world, to Li Longchuan, he would have been willing to accept whatever price it fetched. All he wanted was a single word from Li Zhengshu: "This bow could have been sold for a fortune."

To such an extent that he even went so far as to ruthlessly use the opportunity to cultivate at the Jixia Academy, which he had originally intended for himself, to imprison Chongxuan for a year.
Needless to say, it took a great deal of human connection and favors to secure the opportunity to wait outside Donghua Pavilion. How many resources were expended just to get the word into Li Zhengshu's ears...
This endeavor demanded a significant investment, and the reversal was undeniably challenging.
At such an important moment, he certainly wouldn't miss it.

He came out of Donghua Pavilion and immediately took Jiang Wang to Jimen.
Ji Men was the gate at the southwest corner of Linzi, in the west city. It was the first gate from south to north.
Located at the northernmost point of the east side, this is the first gate from north to south in the East City Gate. It is opposite to the She Gate.
She is the goddess of earth, and Ji is the god of grain.
The earth carries all things, and grains nourish all people.
"She" and "Ji" are both established by rituals and the Son of Heaven must personally perform sacrifices to them. Therefore, Sheji itself embodies the meaning of all under heaven.
The Gate of the State, has its own important meaning.
Facing the east, with land meeting the sea. Let's not elaborate on this for now.
To the west of this Jimen gate, lies the renowned Jiayuan Academy!
Qiting regarded the Jixia Academy as a granary to support all the people, viewing it as the foundation of the nation. This shows his high regard for it.
I've heard a lot about him. Since I arrived in Qi, the name Xuan has been popping up everywhere, in all sorts of ways.

But outside the gates of Ji Men, Jiang Wangcai saw him for the first time.
It is still the Mao time

The council that decides the fate of the entire nation is still being held, calmly and without any disturbance.
As the sky just began to lighten, Linzi awoke from the autumn night.
There are already a few street vendors appearing on the streets.
Regardless of whether one is extraordinary or ordinary, everyone is busy striving for their own goals.
Jiang Wang and Chong Xuan Sheng stood inside the city walls, the city gate behind them already open.

The city gate guards were fully armed and armored, their gazes unwavering.
At the end of the long street, a man in white came walking.
His white clothes were not put on very properly, as if he had just woken up and hastily found a garment to throw on. As a result, they were rather disheveled. Among the meticulously groomed sons of prestigious families, this was simply unimaginable.
However, he came walking down the street, like plum blossoms in full bloom.
He was the only one who graced the entire street.

A pair of sword eyebrows slant into the temples, with a kind of rebellious sharpness.

Her eyes were pitch black and bright, like the last two black pieces on a chessboard where the life and death of the great dragon hung in the balance.
He always had a smirk on his lips, like a prodigal son from some wealthy family. But he somehow hid that sharpness and fierceness of his, making him appear more approachable.
The nose is probably the feature that best embodies this temperament.
It is the kind of green mountain that is bright and beautiful, yet it doesn't feel dangerous.
The collar was casually draped, revealing a jade-bowl like clavicle and the muscles rippling beneath it.
Need no introduction, Jiang Wang naturally knew who this person was.
Only now could I turn my gaze away from him and notice the eunuch from Donghua Pavilion who was leading the way before him.
This eunuch was responsible for both conveying the decree of Prince Xuan Qi and supervising Zhong Xuanyun's immediate entry into the Jixia Academy. He held a certain position within the inner court, ranking slightly above Zhong Xuanyun. He appeared as lowly as a servant.
Zhong Xuan Sheng, with a plump figure, a beaming smile, and an appearance that seemed harmless, was waiting by the city gate.
As they approached, he smiled and said, "Brother, I'm here to see you off."
Zhong Xuan Zun stopped his steps, looked deeply at Zhong Xuan Sheng for a while, and raised the corner of his mouth: "My dear younger brother. You really amaze me."
>
Chongxuan Sheng opened his hands wide, showing off his figure: "Brother, you see how plump my younger brother is It's so that even you wouldn't have to look at him with new eyes!"
He was truly determined. He abandoned all his achievements just to send Chong Xuan into the Jixia Academy to study for a year.
He had originally planned to use the cultivation opportunity at the Jixia Academy to close the gap in his cultivation with Chongxuan Zun. Now, he had to give up this opportunity, which instead widened the gap between their cultivations.
Just to catch their breath under the relentless onslaught of Heavy Xuan's attacks and launch a counterattack!
In situations where individual cultivation is impossible, I might as well abandon the pursuit of personal improvement and instead focus on surpassing others in terms of power.

It can be said that in this match, all the profits from the Battle of Extermination were staked.
As for Chongxuan Zun, a person sitting at home would suddenly receive an imperial decree. He was told he had been awarded the honor of studying at the Jixia Academy for a whole year!
This means that his series of attacks against Zhong Xuansheng came to an abrupt end. Before he could make the final move to eliminate Dalong, the entire chessboard was taken away. Afterward, his opponent slowly made their moves while he could only watch helplessly, not even able to see!

Spending a year cultivating oneself at the Jiutian Academy is undoubtedly a great blessing.

But compared to the entire Chongxuan family, what is truly more important
Chong Xuan Zun didn't feel angry or embarrassed. He still smiled and said, "You should eat less in the future, being too fat is not good for your health."

Even as an adversary, Jiang Wang couldn't help but admit that this person was of noble bearing and exceptional character.
Zhong Xuan bowed respectfully and said, "Thank you for your concern, elder brother."
Zhong Xuan respectfully returned the greeting: "I haven't had a chance to thank my esteemed brother for securing this honor for me."
Jiang Wang looked at this unusually warm scene, with only four words in his heart—brotherly love!
Tap! Tap! Tap!

Tap! Tap! Tap!
Footsteps, as if eternally constant and clear, rang out from the path beside the wall.
Then, a figure that was extremely tall strode over.

He came from the faint dawn, as if splitting open the skylight, gradually becoming clear and concrete.

The black martial arts uniform appears simple and straightforward.
A long face, a high nose, and piercing eyes.

It was the man who had been seen outside Tianfu Secret Realm before, Jiang Mengxiong, the closed-door disciple of the Great Qi Army God, known as the strongest Heavenly Transcendence realm in the world, breaking through the limits of the Heavenly Transcendence realm…Wang Yiwu!
This was a foreseeable outcome, so neither Chong Xuan Sheng nor Jiang Wang had any reaction.
Only Chong Xuan smiled.
This is a truly genuine smile. It's not that he was insincere when talking with Chongxuan before, but only now does this smile come from the heart, completely open and honest.
This embodies complete trust.

“I’m leaving this mess in the city to you. Take care of it.” Chong Xuan tilted his head, looking at him, and smiled.
Wang Yiwu wasn't talkative and just said, "Cultivate your heart peacefully."
After that, Chongxuan didn't look back. In white robes, he floated out of the Jimen Gate!
Walk at your leisure, with ease and grace.
He didn't say another word.
The eunuchs of the East Hua Pavilion didn't stop for a moment. As soon as the imperial edict was issued, they immediately set off to rush to Marquis Bo Wang's mansion.
To do anything under the eunuch's nose without permission is a disrespect to the Emperor.

Therefore, if one wants to do anything, or has the opportunity to do anything, it can only be done before the eunuch in the Donghua Pavilion announces the imperial decree.
It is already remarkable that Chong Xuan could know in advance, before the imperial eunuch arrived at the Donghua Pavilion, This shows Chong Xuan's extraordinary reach and connections.
