The fairy is fierce

Chapter 38: Crane Carrying a Letter



Boom——

Boom——

At nine o'clock in the morning, the Zhengyuan Hall in the majestic imperial city was filled with civil and military officials. perform

In front of the Panlong Screen Wall, the little emperor, wearing a black and yellow dragon robe, was already sitting on the dragon chair, looking at the bead curtain next to him from time to time.

Behind the bead curtain, Jiang Yi sat quietly. Her red lip makeup was quite gorgeous, and she used the rouge she had just received the day before yesterday. It was slightly inconsistent with her solemn and elegant clothes, but it was blocked by the bead curtain, so no one could see it.

Although her makeup was exquisite, Jiang Yi's complexion did not look very good.

The night before yesterday, another vicious beast appeared on Xinghua Street, and the news reached Jiang Yi's ears in just half an hour.

Although the ferocious beast died suddenly and inexplicably without harming the people, it obviously cannot be treated as if it never happened.

In the morning meetings of the past two days, the courtiers have been obsessed with this matter, basically from the last court to the end of the court, and the same is true today.

Jiang Yi sat down for just a moment, and some of the officials standing in the court stood up one after another:

"Your Majesty, although the ferocious beasts that appeared on Xinghua Street did not harm the people, Xinghua Street is in the heart of the capital, only half a mile away from the imperial city..."

"The arrest department is under the personal jurisdiction of the eldest princess. It is supposed to perform patrol duties, but it has repeatedly made mistakes..."

"Your Majesty, ferocious beasts have repeatedly attacked, and the people are in panic. You live in the Phoenix Valley and enjoy the incense of all people. Yue Pingyang has been granted the title of Imperial Master, but he has done nothing..."

There was an endless stream of courtiers writing letters to initiate the memorial. ♚♞ ♦ ♦

Jiang Yi listened quietly, and could only listen quietly, unable to explain at all.

She personally took charge of the arrest department, and the people she used were also her confidants. She had already ordered a strict guard against them, but these ferocious beasts were just like appearing out of thin air, and there was no trace of them beforehand.

As for Qihuang Valley, she had asked many times, but the answers she received were unclear.

Jiang Yi has been practicing in Qihuang Valley for many years. She trusts her uncles in her heart, and even more trusts her aunt, that she will not neglect her duties and let the ferocious beasts cause chaos. However, she cannot tell the courtiers these words. They only look at the facts.

Every time this happens, Jiang Yi feels exhausted mentally and physically, but she has to cheer up because she is sitting in this position with responsibilities on her shoulders. She cannot cry and complain like an ordinary girl, and there is no one. Listen to her complain.

After the ministers in the court talked for a long time, Prime Minister Li Jingsi, who was standing at the front, suppressed the noise of the ministers and stepped forward to speak:

"Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness the Princess, the National Master has not shown up for two years. Now the ferocious beasts around the capital have been repeatedly attacked, and several chiefs in Qihuang Valley have done nothing. If this continues, the people will inevitably be distracted. I wonder, Your Highness the Princess, if you can Asking the national master to come out and discuss the matter with the ministers? If there is a real difficulty, it would be better for the ministers to pool their minds and do nothing."

"What Prime Minister Li said makes sense. I hope Her Royal Highness the Princess can ask the Imperial Master to come out and talk to the store."

"I also hope that Your Highness the Princess will ask the National Master to come out..."

The echoes continued.

Jiang Yi tightened her skirt and wanted to respond, but she didn't know how to respond.

She had invited her many times, but Qihuang Valley declined on the grounds that she could not be disturbed in seclusion.

Jiang Yi used this excuse at first, but now, even she doesn't believe it anymore.

But Jiang Yi did not dare to confirm that the Imperial Master was ill, because Qihuang Valley was her biggest supporter. Without the powerful Imperial Master, it would be a problem for several of her uncles to maintain the family business, let alone protect their sister. Brother, what if a group of ministers force the palace and the vassal king rebels?

Jiang Yi'e frowned as she listened to the ministers' agreement. Just as she was about to continue to use the pretext of the Imperial Master's seclusion as an excuse, a crane suddenly sounded outside the solemn main hall.

"唳——"

The cry was clear and ethereal, as if coming from the sky, and the sound of spreading wings could also be heard faintly.

All the civil and military officials in the Zhengyuan Hall fell silent for a moment, and Prime Minister Li Jingsi even shivered, a little unbelievable.

Jiang Yi was also stunned, her eyes filled with joy.

Although the national master Yue Pingyang is an expert at the sixth level of Linggu, he is not yet able to control objects and fly. He has a white crane specially used as a mount.

Jiang Yi thought that the imperial master who had not been seen for two years had really come out, so she quickly stood up and opened the bead curtain, and the officials also looked back.

But what everyone didn't expect was that only a small crane fell at the door of the majestic hall. Its fur was white and its black feathers were as black as ink. Although it was full of aura and could not be ordinary at first sight, it was definitely not capable of riding people.

The white crane spread its wings and held a small package on its feet. It flew straight into the hall and came to the imperial desk in front of the dragon chair. After putting the package down, it turned around and flew out of the hall, never to return.

"..."

All civil and military officials in the court stared blankly, and there was silence for a moment.

Li Jingsi secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it was not the imperial master who came. He took a step forward and said doubtfully:

"This crane seems to be a fairy beast that frightens the terrace. I have seen it once before during the reign of the late Emperor. But what news did the master of the Xian family send?"

Jiang Yi was only twenty years old. She had heard about her ancestors in Qihuang Valley, but she had definitely never seen them with her own eyes. It was the first time she received a summons from Jingtai Terrace, so she was a little scared. She hurriedly walked to her brother, opened the package, and saw a wooden box inside, which was engraved with the symbol of Jingtai - 'Crane Holding Book'.

Jiang Yi carefully opened the box, and what caught her eye were three jade plaques and a letter. The jade plaques also had the symbol of a crane holding a book. The shape was exactly the same as the Qihuang Valley identity plaque, but the material was completely different.

Jiang Yi picked up the envelope, opened it and took a look. She looked surprised at first, then a little disappointed.

The ministers noticed the change in the eldest princess' expression and asked:

"Princess, what does the letter say?"

Jiang Yi read the letter carefully and said:

"Jingluotai sent a letter saying that the nine sects are exchanging students in Linyuan City. Our dynasty has not had any wars in the past sixty years and has made great contributions to educating the people, so they gave our dynasty three places and asked us to select the best talents as soon as possible and send them to Jingluotai to go with the disciples."

All the people present were ministers who managed the secular people. They knew that Linyuan City was the capital of the Great Yan Empire, but they didn't know much about the affairs of these immortal families. For a while, they didn't understand how great a gift this was.

As a cultivator, Jiang Yi had been in Qihuang Valley for many years, but he had learned a little from his teacher.

The nine sects in the south are all immortal families, and their cultivation paths are different. There are always some good seedlings in their jurisdiction that are not suitable for their own sect's skills. In order to prevent the outflow or waste of resources, the nine sects will regularly exchange students with each other, and by the way, open a way for small sects and casual cultivators to go ashore.

The sphere of influence of the Nine Sects is more than ten thousand miles, and the number of people who want to join the sect within the jurisdiction is countless. Master Zheng in the living room of Qihuang Valley wanted to join the sect that year, but he was seriously injured in the struggle and became depressed.

If you are already a disciple of the Nine Sects, you can skip the layers of screening and directly enter the final stage to let the elders of the Nine Sects choose; because it is an exchange, they will definitely be accepted, and no matter how bad the result is, you will still be in the inner sect of the Nine Sects.

You should know that the disciples sent to the Jingluo Pavilion by Qihuang Valley in previous years who spent money to build relationships only started from the outer sect. This time, three places were directly given, which is no less than giving three roads to the heavens to the cultivators of the Great Dan Dynasty.

Jiang Yi is also a cultivator. She was extremely jealous of this news. She didn't even want to be the regent princess. After all, if she became an inner disciple of the Nine Sect and achieved success in the future, who would dare to touch her brother?

It's a pity that the letter also mentioned requirements, and they were very harsh. It must be "male, under 30 years old, and the realm is above the eighth level of Qi training."

Of the three conditions, Jiang Yi only met one, that was under 30 years old, so she definitely couldn't go. At this moment, she could only console herself by saying that she still had to help her brother deal with government affairs...
