You Have Seen an Immortal, so Why Do You Not Kneel?
In the Temporary Palace Villa,
Zhang Qingyan, son of the Minister of the Ministry of War, has not yet arrived.
The Imperial Eldest Grandson Xiao Chengchen, arrived first.
Since his grandfather revoked his power as regent, Xiao Chengchen has become a completely idle and unproductive grandson of the emperor.
On the night the Immortals descended,
The Emperor then issued an imperial edict.
No one in the Capital is allowed to go to Jade Spring Mountain to disturb the Immortals ' secluded cultivation.
Even as the Imperial Eldest Grandson, he had no chance to meet the Immortals.
Without the opportunity to meet the Immortals, there is no chance to gain Immortal favor.
Grandpa is getting more and more energetic.
My aunt has completely quelled the rebellion in Ji Province and is leading her army in triumph back to the Capital.
So these past few days have felt like an eternity to him.
Time is running out.
If he doesn't find a way to see the Immortal, he will completely lose his right to sit on the throne.
So, at Wang Zitao's urging,
He decided to take the risk.
He personally led his entourage, pulling a cart full of goods, to the Jade Spring Mountain Temporary Palace Villa.
The carriage contained gifts he intended to give to the Immortals.
Not gold, silver, jade, or rare treasures—these are not worldly things.
Rather, it was the poems, essays, and classic texts he created from childhood to adulthood, along with the collections of various schools of thought.
The Immortals in heaven are naturally refined and noble.
She'll definitely love the gift he gave her.
Then appreciate him, favor him, and cherish him.
Finally, the entire world was entrusted to him with peace of mind, this truly sage and benevolent ruler.
The Imperial Eldest Grandson, Xiao Chengchen, was absolutely certain, even his heart was surging with excitement.
Just imagining meeting Immortal, discussing poetry and literature, engaging in philosophical debates, and appreciating the elegance of ancient texts...
His palms were sweaty with nervous anticipation.
"What? You can't let me in?"
When the guards at the gate of the Temporary Palace Villa stopped him, the Imperial Eldest Grandson, Xiao Chengchen, was immediately furious.
Who is he!!
The Imperial Eldest Grandson of the Daliang Kingdom
A supreme being, second only to the emperor and above all others.
The man who was just one step away from ascending to the throne.
They were actually blocked at the door.
They won't let you in.
"His Majesty has decreed that no one is permitted to set foot in the Immortal Abode without an audience with Immortal or His Majesty's decree."
The guard bowed respectfully, but his attitude was unusually firm.
The Imperial Eldest Grandson Xiao Chengchen, remained silent for a moment.
Grandpa Emperor is still the same Grandpa Emperor.
They are meticulous in their work and extremely domineering in their actions.
Is he the only one in the entire world who has the unique privilege of receiving the favor of Immortal?
Does he, as a member of the royal family, not even have the right to meet Immortal?
This is so unfair.
The Imperial Eldest Grandson, Xiao Chengchen, harbored growing resentment towards his grandfather.
"Then let's consult the Immortals and see whether they will grant me an audience. Let Immortal decide for themselves."
The Imperial Eldest Grandson, Xiao Chengchen, suppressed his anger and spoke.
The guard could tell that His Highness the Imperial Eldest Grandson was angry, but he had no choice but to stand up for the emperor, even though he was under imperial command.
Hearing His Highness the Imperial Eldest Grandson's words, he immediately felt relieved.
"Please wait a moment, Your Highness. I will go and consult the Immortal immediately."
Inside the hall,
Gao Yunyi listened to the dance music with utter boredom.
His eyes were slightly narrowed, his expression languid, and his heart was completely unmoved.
Then a report was heard from a palace attendant outside the hall.
"The Imperial Eldest Grandson wants to see me?"
Gao Yunyi was slightly taken aback. Wasn't he supposed to send someone to find the son of the Minister of the Ministry of War? Why did it turn out to be the Imperial Eldest Grandson?
Could it be that this Imperial Eldest Grandson is also an ignorant and dissolute fellow?
However, the title of Imperial Eldest Grandson
They actually seem to be a good match.
"Let him in."
Gao Yunyi waved his hand and decided to meet this Imperial Eldest Grandson.
Just consider it a way to kill some time.
I'm just killing time anyway.
Outside the Temporary Palace Villa,
Upon hearing that the Immortal was willing to see him, the Imperial Eldest Grandson Xiao Chengchen, almost jumped for joy.
The Immortals in heaven are indeed different from ordinary people.
I'm sure He and I will appreciate each other and share the same interests.
However, he managed to restrain himself in the end, maintaining the dignity and composure of the eldest grandson of the royal family.
But as the eunuch entered the villa,
Upon seeing the scene of extravagance and revelry in the main hall of the imperial palace,
He could no longer maintain the dignity and demeanor of the eldest grandson of the royal family.
decadent music, seductive dances, the collapse of social order and music.
The palace was filled with an atmosphere of arrogance, extravagance, and debauchery, and a culture of sensual pleasures and debauchery.
The Imperial Eldest Grandson, Xiao Chengchen, was filled with shock and astonishment, and he subconsciously took a few steps back.
This was completely different from the ethereal, elegant, and otherworldly immortal abode he had imagined.
He couldn't accept the cruel reality before him that shattered his understanding and shattered his worldview.
"You are the Imperial Eldest Grandson?"
A detached voice suddenly reached his ears, interrupting Xiao Chengchen's thoughts and pulling him back from his shock and daze.
Then Xiao Chengchen focused his gaze.
Then I saw that stunningly beautiful, aloof and ethereal face, leaning against the couch.
He is Immortal.
This is what Immortal looks like in my mind.
The refined and otherworldly Immortals must have been corrupted by the superficiality of the mortal world.
That's why they've degenerated into this absurd state of indulging in pleasure and living a life of extravagance.
It was the Emperor's fault.
It's the world's fault.
The Immortals are innocent.
The Immortal is naive and innocent, pure and immaculate.
How could they understand the wickedness of human nature and the complexity of society?
Xiao Chengchen's eyes lit up instantly, and all the distracting thoughts in his mind were instantly banished.
Then, his demeanor as the eldest grandson of the royal family seemed to return.
"Xiao Chengchen, the eldest grandson of the Emperor of the Great Liang Kingdom, greets the Azure Mysterious Immortal Venerable."
Xiao Chengchen's face was solemn as he bowed respectfully, his movements and etiquette impeccable. His robes hung loosely without being disheveled, and his every bow, step, and movement conformed to propriety, displaying dignity, composure, and calmness.
It perfectly embodies the integrity of scholars and the refined manners of royalty.
He had expected to receive praise from the Immortals.
But what I didn't expect was that the Immortal casually said:
"Now that you have seen Immortal, why do you not kneel?"
Xiao Chengchen: "..."
It feels like things aren't quite what he expected.
"Your Highness, kneel down immediately."
The eunuch beside him whispered a reminder.
Then,
Xiao Chengchen knelt down with a thud.
He thought that being a little unconventional would make the Immortals think more highly of him, but in the end, the Immortals still preferred the hierarchy.
But this was exactly what he wanted.
He was well-versed in literature from a young age, strictly disciplined himself, followed rules and regulations, and paid the most attention to the rules of hierarchy.
In his view,
He and Immortals must have a lot in common.
What do you want with me?
Seeing that this so-called Imperial Eldest Grandson exuded an air of pedantry, Gao Yunyi frowned slightly.
Since everyone was already there, I still casually asked a question.
"Reporting to Azure Profound Immortal Venerable, I have a gift to present."
The Imperial Eldest Grandson Xiao Chengchen, spoke respectfully and confidently.
"If it's gold or jewelry, take it; I'm not interested in those things."
Gao Yunyi spoke with a lazy demeanor and a disdainful tone.
He had so many of these things that his backpack was overflowing.
Upon hearing the Immortal's words, the Imperial Eldest Grandson, Xiao Chengchen, shone brightly once more.
I was indeed clever and resourceful, and I knew that Immortals would look down on such mundane and vulgar things.
"Please rest assured, Immortal Venerable, the items I have brought are by no means ordinary; Immortal Venerable will surely like them."
"Imperial Eldest Grandson Xiao Chengchen said with absolute confidence."
Gao Yunyi was taken aback for a moment, and his gaze toward the Imperial Eldest Grandson became slightly serious.
Could it be heavenly materials and earthly treasures, a marvel of nature?
After refining the Foundation Establishment Pill, Gao Yunyi became somewhat interested in the heavenly materials and earthly treasures in the world.
Because he was considering whether it was possible to refine other types of Pills without using Pill Formulas.
If this pedantic Imperial Eldest Grandson could actually offer some heavenly materials and earthly treasures, it wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing.
