After announcing the birth of a new force to the entire continent, Shui Bing'er Ice Phoenix Empress became busy.
In addition to personal cultivation, she also has to deal with Heavenly Court's affairs, which can almost be said to be so busy that her feet never touch the ground.
But fortunately, her little sisters volunteered to help her, otherwise she would be too busy to practice.
The location of Heavenly Court was finally decided on a place not far from the Skywater Academy but with beautiful scenery.
It is backed by rolling mountains and faces a wide flat lake.
The water of the lake is dark blue and crystal clear.
When we get up in the morning, the mist is lingering on the lake, which makes Heavenly Court by the lake look like it is above the clouds.
Shui Bing'er I liked it very much when I saw it.
More importantly, this way, when graduates of the Skywater Academy join Heavenly Court in the future, they won't have to travel so far.
On the day when the mountain gate was erected, Shui Bing'er asked Meng Chen to inscribe it in his own hand as a plaque hanging high on the mountain gate.
At the same time, Shui Bing'er also personally erected an ice-blue stone tablet at the foot of the mountain gate, with two large characters of the title Shui Bing'er - Heavenly Court engraved on it.
The handwriting is neat and square, and the strokes have a coldness like ice.
Hey, there is already a plaque on the mountain gate, but Shui Bing'er still needs to write an extra stone tablet. The implication is naturally that when Heavenly Court disciples learn about Master, they can also think of her.
I don't know if this counts as being with Master?
Shui Bing'er couldn't help but feel a little shy.
Meng Chen didn't know the twists and turns in his disciple's heart. Looking at this new Heavenly Court built by his disciple himself, he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth, feeling that there were too many frost elements.
Ice Empress and Snow Empress are very satisfied.
After the news of the establishment of Heavenly Court spread, many forces came to celebrate.
Heaven Dou Empire Imperial Family sent a special envoy with a congratulatory letter written by Xue Ye himself.
The letter was written in dignified and polite terms, with the general idea of congratulations on the founding of Heavenly Court, wishing Heavenly Court prosperity, and hoping that Heavenly Court and Heaven Dou Empire would form a permanent alliance.
In addition, there is a generous gift, which is a Swan made of gold.
Upper Three Sects all sent personal letters from the sect master and their respective generous gifts.
Especially Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect sent a large amount of materials needed to build various buildings of Heavenly Court.
Many other forces, large and small, also came - sects from far away, families nearby, as well as Shui Bing'er's admirers and followers who spontaneously came to congratulate him.
The various forces have been suffering from the Spirit Hall for a long time. At this time, Shui Bing'er, who had a problem with the Spirit Hall, actually established a new force. So everyone came to congratulate one after another, trying to cause a confrontation between Heavenly Court and Spirit Hall so that they could survive in the cracks.
Days passed day by day, and Heavenly Court firmly took root in the Douluo Continent.
More and more people came to be apprentices, and the Bluestone Platform steps in front of the mountain gate were polished smoother and smoother.
Because people on the Douluo Continent discovered that Heavenly Court truly achieved "Martial Soul without waste, only people with waste."
No matter what kind of Trash Martial Soul, Heavenly Court's technique can allow him to cultivate Soul Power.
However, many forces were disappointed to find that Heavenly Court seemed to have no intention of being hostile to the Spirit Hall, and was always keeping a low profile, building walls high, and hoarding supplies.
Just when Heavenly Court is keeping a low profile, Heaven Dou City.
Late at night, the inner palace of the imperial city.
Xue Ye was lying on the dragon couch, his face was as pale as gold paper, and his eye sockets were sunken.
He has been ill for a long time, and has been getting worse day by day since the beginning of autumn. The imperial doctor has changed his medicine one after another, and he has changed more than a dozen prescriptions, but his condition is getting worse and worse.
As Xue Ye became seriously ill, the most commendable thing was the filial piety of the prince Xue Qinghe, who waited at Xue Ye's window day and night and tasted the medicine himself.
This night was the same, Xue Qinghe stood outside the gauze curtain, his voice as gentle as jade. "Father, it's time for you to rest. The imperial doctor said that you need to rest. As for your empire... leave it to us Spirit Hall!"
Xue Ye looked at him, wanting to say something but couldn't.
Because the poison in his throat had penetrated deep into his bone marrow, and most of his vocal cords were corroded, making it impossible for him to speak complete words.
When he heard Xue Qinghe's words again at this time, he was so angry that his brain was bleeding.
The next day, the news of Xue Ye's death spread throughout the imperial city and gradually spread to the Douluo Continent.
The funeral of Xue Ye was solemn and luxurious, but also short to the extreme, and then came the enthronement ceremony of Xue Qinghe.
Imperial City, Heaven Dou Square.
This square covers an extremely large area and can accommodate tens of thousands of people standing at the same time. It is the place where Heaven Dou Empire emperors of all dynasties held coronation ceremonies, military parades, and offerings to heaven.
At this moment, the square was full of people.
Civil and military officials wear official robes of different colors and are arranged on both sides of the high platform according to their rank.
The civil servants stood on the left, and the military attachés stood on the right. They were neat and uniform, without any disorder.
Imperial aristocrats with noble titles stood in front of the officials, dressed in gorgeous clothes and with jade ornaments symbolizing their status around their waists.
On the outside are the Imperial City guards, wearing silver armor and holding halberds, standing in an airtight human wall, tightly surrounding the entire square.
On the high platform, Xue Qinghe's royal robe was bright and dazzling. His eyes swept across the dark crowd below the stage, with a warm smile hanging on the corner of his mouth.
Under the high platform, officials and nobles shouted long live.
After that, it is the process of the emperor offering sacrifices to the heavens, praying to the sky, the sun, the moon, the mountains and rivers, and then upholding the way of heaven, obeying the subjects below, announcing to the emperor of heaven and earth, establishing the country and heaven, and establishing the Yuan Dynasty.
But today's enthronement process is destined to be a little different. After all the civil and military officials and nobles came to their rescue, Xue Qinghe said gently, "I dreamed of the ancestors' spirits last night, saying that there are bad people among you, who want to usurp the throne and commit rebellion, and kill me on this high platform!"
The audience was in an uproar. Everyone was happy today, why did you say such a thing?
Then the ministers and nobles immediately expressed their loyalty to Xue Qinghe.
Xue Qinghe was moved and said, "You are indeed loyal to the country, why don't we kill the white horse as an alliance and promise never to betray."
Xue Qinghe After he finished speaking, there was a chaotic sound of hoofbeats coming from the passage on one side of the high platform.
Two guards came out leading a brown sika deer.
All the officials in the audience looked at each other in confusion, and the nobles exchanged glances. Everyone was confused, didn't they say they wanted to kill your horse? Why did it turn into a deer?
An old minister with white beard and hair came out of the queue and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, this is a deer."
As soon as he finished speaking, a black figure swept out from the shadows behind the high platform, as fast as a black lightning.
Then the veteran's head exploded.
Everyone in the audience was shocked. What happened?
Xue Qinghe's eyes fell on the faces with different expressions in the audience, and his voice remained as gentle as before. "My dear friends, please see clearly. Is this a white horse or a deer?"
Although full of doubts and shock, under the threat of death, everyone still replied, "Back to your Majesty, this is a... white horse."
Xue Qinghe was very satisfied, and then ordered the guards to open the deer and distribute the deer blood and meat to the ministers.
The ministers were frightened, wondering if the newly succeeded emperor was crazy and what weird tricks the black figure had done.
When the officials got the venison, Xue Qinghe asked people to raise the flag again.
The flag unfurled under the gray sky - a pure white background with a golden Six-Winged Angel embroidered in the center.
The logo of the Spirit Hall, Six-Winged Angel Banner!
Suddenly everyone screamed in shock and shouted the three words "Spirit Hall" while trembling.
Xue Qinghe pointed at the flag and glanced at the frightened, shocked and disbelieving faces in the audience. "This flag is the flag that I, Heaven Dou Empire, have always supported? Yes or no?"
Yes or no?
This is a fatal multiple-choice question. The courage of the officials has been completely dissipated in the blow of calling a deer a horse.
At this moment, it is even more impossible to fight against Xue Qinghe's decision.
Those who follow it will prosper, and those who go against it will perish.
Heaven Dou Empire, from this moment on, it's time to change the flag!
