The Master didn't explain anything more. He had said everything that needed to be said, and the younger generations had to do the rest. What the future will be like, after all, it is up to these young people to decide for themselves. There is not much he can do.
At this moment, Grand Tutor, who had been silent all the time, suddenly said, "Ning Chen, can Little Emperor from Northern Mongolia be handed over to the imperial court?"
"Impossible!" Ning Chen was startled, then refused without hesitation.
Grand Tutor looked solemn and said righteously, "The matter of Northern Mongolia Little Emperor is of great importance. I hope you can seriously consider it. As long as you are willing to cooperate, it is not impossible for you to become a marquis in the future."
"Needless to say, there is nothing negotiable in this matter. Little Emperor can only be in my hands, not anyone else." Ning Chen refused again, his attitude was unquestionable. He did not trust anyone in the court, especially Xia Emperor.
He promised Little Mingyue that he would not hand her over to anyone, and he must keep his word.
Mingyue After arriving at Great Xia, he was the only one to rely on. If he let go, how would a seven-year-old girl survive?
As long as he is not dead, this matter cannot be discussed at all.
Grand Tutor frowned and said patiently, "Little Emperor is in your hands and cannot play any role. The court will still have to come forward to negotiate. You can't promise anything and you can't decide anything."
Ning Chen said nothing, Grand Tutor said it was true. If you want to negotiate with Northern Mongolia, it is most appropriate for the imperial court to come forward.
Seeing that the young man in front of him was silent, Grand Tutor continued to persuade, "Listen to me and hand over Little Emperor. Only in this way can Great Xia have more breathing room. Since you are willing to risk your life to break into the Northern Mongolian Palace, you must not want to watch Great Xia lose this war."
Ning Chen didn't want to refute, and calmly glanced at the leader of the Confucian sect in front of him, and asked, "Grand Tutor, I know that you are the head of the contemporary Confucian sect, and I also know that the most important thing in the Confucian sect is morality. I want to ask, before I promised Little Emperor that I would not hand him over to anyone. What do you think is more important, Great Xia, or the promise?"
Grand Tutor's expression was slightly stagnant, and he couldn't answer. Reason told him that compared to his personal commitment, Great Xia's thousand-year foundation was of course more important, but he was the head of the Confucian sect, so how could he say words that would persuade people to betray their faith.
The Master listened quietly on the side, his old face always calm and never wavered in the slightest.
After persuading to no avail, Grand Tutor fell silent. After a long time, he finally made up his mind and said in a deep voice, "You and I will go back to the palace to meet His Majesty. I will persuade His Majesty to knight you and negotiate with Northern Mongol Royal Court on behalf of the imperial court."
Ning Chen frowned. This may sound feasible, but it is actually impossible.
He knew very well how strongly Xia Emperor wanted to kill him. Although his existence was always a thorn in Xia Emperor's mind, it might have been just because of the gunpowder thing at first, but now it is no longer so simple. He has escaped pursuit again and again, and I am afraid that Xia Emperor's anger has already filled his heart.
The majesty of the emperor has always been ruthless and unreasonable.
Ning Chen said with a serious face, "Grand Tutor, do you really think this method is feasible? It is no secret that Xia Emperor wants to kill me. Who can guarantee that after I return to the palace, Xia Emperor will not have murderous intentions again, and who can guarantee that Eunuch Pei next to Xia Emperor will not suddenly take action. Although I am not afraid of death, I do not want to seek death, especially when facing a moody emperor."
Grand Tutor did not deny it. What Ning Chen said was true. The current Xia Emperor has indeed become somewhat unrecognizable.
"I can't promise anything, but I can promise you that if His Majesty has murderous intentions, I will help you stop Eunuch Pei." At this point, Grand Tutor looked at Ning Chen and said with a very solemn expression, "For Great Xia, I hope you can try it with me."
Hearing this, Ning Chen frowned again. He was not surprised. Grand Tutor said that he wanted to stop Eunuch Pei. As the head of the contemporary Confucian sect, he always had some trump cards. He was just hesitant whether the trip was worth it or not.
He really didn't like Xia Emperor, and he didn't believe that this tyrant, who became more and more perverted as he got older, would spare him.
However, what Grand Tutor said did shake him a little. After all, he still didn't want to watch Great Xia perish.
"I can go back to the palace with you, but you have to promise me that if something happens to me unfortunately, you must save Little Emperor's life. I swear by the reputation of Confucianism for thousands of years!"
Ning Chen thought for a moment and agreed to Grand Tutor's suggestion, but he also made his own request.
Grand Tutor did not hesitate and nodded, "Okay, I promise you."
"Now that you've decided, let's do it. If you have time, you can go back to the academy more often." The Master said calmly in front of the desk.
"Thank you the Master for your guidance today. I will take my leave, junior," Ning Chen said with a respectful salute.
"Teacher, student, please leave." Grand Tutor stepped back half a step, bowed as a disciple, and immediately followed him out.
The two left. The Master picked up the pen and slowly wrote a word on the paper. It was trembling, but it was strong enough to penetrate the back of the paper.
When Ning Chen returned to his residence, Little Mingyue was not awake yet, so he sat aside and waited.
Grand Tutor was about to speak, but closed his mouth again. He didn't want to make the boy in front of him unhappy again at this time.
The two waited for more than two hours before Little Mingyue woke up leisurely, sat up, and smiled when he saw Ning Chen beside the bed.
"Are you awake? We should go." Ning Chen adjusted the little girl's cloth hat and said softly.
"Where to go?" Mingyue asked in confusion.
"Great Xia Imperial Palace" Ning Chen said honestly.
The little girl's body trembled suddenly, her face turned pale instantly, and tears flowed out subconsciously.
Ning Chen felt a pain in his heart, and gently took Little Mingyue into his arms, comforting him, "It's okay, I just negotiate a condition with Xia Emperor, it has nothing to do with you."
Mingyue Pear Blossom raised her head and asked, "Really?"
"Really" Ning Chen nodded seriously.
"Okay, now that he's awake, we should get on the road." Next to him, Grand Tutor said.
Only then did Little Mingyue notice that there was a stranger in the room. She quickly got up from Ning Chen's arms and wiped away her tears, not wanting others to see her vulnerable side.
She is the emperor of Northern Mongolia and represents the entire Northern Mongol Royal Court. She cannot show any weakness in front of Great Xia people.
Except for the bad guys, of course.
"Walk by yourself, or carry it on your back?" Ning Chen asked softly.
"Go by yourself" Mingyue replied.
Little Mingyue stretched out his hand and walked out of the house without even looking at Grand Tutor.
Ning Chen sighed in his heart. When Little Mingyue was not familiar with him, he was so proud and stubborn. Thinking about it now, it was just a way for the little girl to protect herself.
He was already an emperor before he could remember anything, and he also had to hide his identity as a daughter. Little Mingyue was destined not to show any vulnerability at any time.
In this world, the easiest thing to be is the emperor, and the hardest thing to be is the emperor.
The academy is not far from the imperial city. It can be reached in more than a day by horse carriage. Grand Tutor is in a hurry, but Ning Chen is not in a hurry, because Little Mingyue is still a little scared, so it takes two days to get there after a one-day journey.
After arriving at the imperial city, Ning Chen got off the carriage with Little Mingyue. Instead of entering the palace immediately, he promised Grand Tutor that he would take Little Mingyue there in person tomorrow morning.
Grand Tutor Seeing that the former had made up his mind, he had no choice but to nod in agreement and immediately left in the carriage.
Ning Chen randomly found an inn in the city, paid the room fee, and went upstairs directly.
In the room, Ning Chen asked Little Mingyue to sit on the bed, and then injected a trace of Scroll of Life's true energy into the little girl's body.
There is a congenital in the palace, and he cannot be careless. The secret that Little Mingyue is a girl cannot be known by others. These infuriating energy can temporarily disturb the pulse. As long as Eunuch Pei does not touch Little Mingyue's body, it should not be obvious.
"Mingyue, you have a good rest. There may be a fight tomorrow, but I'm here, so don't be afraid." Ning Chen rubbed the little girl's hair and said softly.
"Yeah" Mingyue nodded and immediately lay down obediently.
As night fell, Ning Chen sat in the house, seizing the time to practice. Within the Dantian Qi sea, next to the two cyclones, the third breath gradually gathered. The blue light rolled like waves, the spiritual energy rolled, and soon a small cyclone was formed in the Qi sea.
The next moment, Ning Chen introduced the zhenqi that had been forcibly suppressed that day into the cyclone, quickly filling this weak third cyclone.
Of the ten years of cultivation given by old Marquis, most of it had been consumed that day, and he did not dare to devour the remaining half. He was worried that the foundation would be unstable and affect his future cultivation. Now, the technique used to practice Changsun Lineage is perfect.
His talent is not very good. After practicing for so many days, he has achieved some success.
Changsun Lineage's moves, after all, are more suitable if they match Changsun Lineage's mentality.
Nothing may happen tomorrow. There are many experts in the Great Xia Imperial Palace, but there is more than just one innate. It is always good to be more prepared.
The spiritual energy in the room fluctuated more and more, and the third cyclone gradually grew in size as it continued to be devoured. It did not stop until it was about the same size as the other two cyclones.
However, this kind of cyclone that has not experienced the realm level has a very unstable foundation. Once it is started, it will be consumed very quickly, and the recovery speed will be much slower.
There is no such thing as a free lunch in the world. No matter how much effort you put in, you will be rewarded. After all, his greatest strength is Scroll of Life, which is also the foundation for his martial arts practice.
In the Beimeng camp, an urgent message appeared in the commander's tent. After reading it, Fan Lingyue narrowed his eyes slightly.
He finally returned to Great Xia Imperial City.
"Come here," Fan Lingyue said.
"In"
A heavily armored general walked in, it was the heavy cavalry leader Qing Wuyou. Since Yang Hong stayed at Heaven's Gate Pass, the task of protecting Military Advisor fell on him.
"Tell Qing Wuhen that her opportunity is coming soon. Remember, you can only get one chance. Don't miss it!" Fan Lingyue said solemnly.
"Yes" Qing Wuyou respectfully accepted the order, then turned and left.
"Ahem"
After Qing Wuyou left, Fan Lingyue covered his mouth and coughed violently several times. When he fell, a bright red loomed in his palms, so dazzling...
