I intuitively feel that this should be a person with an indifferent temperament.
But when Jiang Wang looked over, he turned his head and smiled brightly. He didn't seem to have the kind of character that avoids strangers.
Jiang Wang smiled and nodded.
To the right of Ji Zhaonan, standing are the three people competing for the spot in the outer building.
From front to back, they are Bao Bozhao, Xie Baoshu, and Chao Yu.
Among them, Bao Bozhao is an acquaintance, and he is much older than his younger brother Bao Zhongqing.
I just met Xie Baoshu... It’s okay not to mention it.
Jiang Wang did not expect that General Chao Yu, who was born in the Wintermute Army, was a woman, but Jiang Wang did not expect it, because the name did not sound feminine at all.
The medium-long hair is tied into a braid and hangs straight down the back of the head. The face is somewhat neutral.
Above the Dan Majesty, sat the emperor and queen of Da Qi.
The position of the phoenix chair is slightly lower than that of the dragon chair.
Go further down and over a few steps.
This is the position of princes and princesses.
There are not many princes and princesses who can attend such an occasion.
There are only four people in total: Crown Prince Jiang Wuhua, Master of Huaying Palace Jiang Wuyou, Master of Yangxin Palace Jiang Wuxie, and Master of Immortality Palace Jiang Wuqi.
Jiang Wuhua sat on the upper left hand, and Jiang Wuyou, as the eldest sister, sat on the upper right hand.
Behind them, Jiang Wuxie and Jiang Wuqi sat respectively.
Jiang Wuhua was wearing the prince's normal clothes and sitting upright.
Jiang Wuyou was wearing a frost-colored military uniform. He was tilting his head and looking at the people in the square.
Jiang Wuxie was casually dressed in brocade clothes, with the most relaxed demeanor and a smile on her lips. From time to time she would pick up a snow-marked fruit (a fruit as big as a grape, with thin skin reflecting the snow, sweet taste and cold texture) from the fruit plate in front of her.
Stuff it into your mouth. If you are not in front of the emperor, don't be too unrestrained. This may cause a beautiful woman to pinch your shoulders and beat your legs.
Jiang Wuqi was wrapped in a white fox fur, with a smile on his pale face, and his sitting posture was very upright.
Except for Jiang Wuhua, the three palace masters all did not wear the ceremonial attire. Compared with the prince's ceremonial attire, their palace lord's ceremonial attire was undoubtedly one step lower, and they were dressed as if they were reminding others.
.
They are all deliberately downplaying this gap.
It's hard to say whether Jiang Wuhua is deliberately strengthening this gap.
Anyway, he always wears the right clothes for any occasion. Today in this "Master's Ceremony", it is very reasonable to wear the prince's regular clothes.
Before the time came, officials from the Ministry of Rites were sprinkling pure water on the square to wash away the dirt and eliminate hidden dangers to ensure the fairness of the subsequent military competition.
Emperor Da Qi suddenly said: "Wu Qi, come here and talk."
Jiang Wuhua had a smile on his face, Jiang Wuyou was still looking at the genius in the square, and Jiang Wuxie continued to eat the snow pattern fruit. He didn't seem to hear this sound.
Jiang Wuqi stood up and left the table, walked up a few steps in a hurry, walked to the dragon chair of Emperor Da Qi, and said politely: "Father."
Then he saluted the Queen of Daqi next to him: "Queen Mother."
The Emperor of Da Qi had nine daughters and seventeen sons. In addition to the crown prince Jiang Wuhua, there were three others who were considered to be qualified to challenge the throne.
But only Jiang Wuqi was called by his side to talk at this moment, which showed that he was particularly doted on.
Queen He smiled and nodded in response.
Except for the eunuchs and maids who were standing there, the people above the Dan Majesty at this time were all members of the royal family.
The Emperor of Da Qi also acted very casually: "Let me ask you, the 'Grand Master's Ceremony' is held in front of the Ancestral Temple to determine the country's genius. This is a meeting of the strong. Why do you invite these old people who can't stand still?
And these ninety-nine households of ordinary people who have no cultivation?"
"Cough, cough." Jiang Wuqi stopped coughing and smiled calmly: "Most people in this world are ordinary people when they are born. Before they become gods, everyone will grow old one day.
These people invited by you, Father, are the beginning and the end. No matter where we go or where we stand, we should remember the way we came and the way we are going. This is true for people, and this is true for the country."
Emperor Daqi was obviously very satisfied with this answer. He even reached out and gently stroked his back, saying slowly: "Are you okay?"
Jiang Wuqi replied softly: "It doesn't matter."
Emperor Daqi ordered again: "Bring a chair and let Xiao Shiyi sit down. He won't be tired."
The great eunuch Han Ling, who was wearing a red robe, personally brought a chair cushioned with cloud velvet and placed it on the right front of the dragon chair.
Jiang Wuqi sat on his knees.
Queen He said from the side: "I have a very good dragon ginseng in my palace. It may be of some benefit to you. I will ask someone to send it to the Changsheng Palace later."
Jiang Wuqi did not refuse. He stood up and saluted respectfully: "My son, I thank my mother for her care."
Queen He smiled slightly and said nothing else.
When Jiang Wuqi sat down again, Emperor Daqi suddenly raised his voice with a narrow smile: "Hey, what are you looking at, Wuyou!"
The emperor is so graceful and majestic that he rarely shows his emotions. Only this narrow smile at this moment seems to have temporarily pulled him down from the supreme throne, giving him a little bit of the human reality of his father's role.
Jiang Wuyou turned around and said with a majestic smile: "Look at me, the Great Qi Tianjiao, father!"
Emperor Da Qi raised his chin slightly to make himself look more serious: "What do you think about the question I just asked?"
Jiang Wuyou thought for a while and then said: "To make a country big, with billions of people and hundreds of thousands of cultivators, which one is the foundation? To make a country like a tall building, the cultivators pull it up, and the people build it at the bottom. If there is no
The height is not enough to be proud of the world, and if there is no thickness, it is not enough to endure the years."
She originally wanted to use the tower as an example, but when the words came to her lips, she changed it to a building.
"Therefore, I believe that ordinary people are the foundation of the country, and practitioners are the backbone of the country. They are indispensable. That's why I, the Qi Dynasty, established criminal laws and set up green cards to arrest lawbreakers and hunt down miscreants! Let the people enjoy their work and make the practitioners happy.
Like a spike of rice seedlings, this is the merit of moral governance!"
After these powerful words came out, Queen He couldn't help but look at her twice.
Emperor Daqi smiled: "She is my tiger girl!"
He then looked at Jiang Wuxie, who was still eating the snow pattern fruit: "Is it delicious?"
"Lack of some water!" Jiang Wuxie said with a smile: "Father, you don't need to ask, I will answer it myself."
Or maybe it's because of his extravagant nature that he is the most relaxed and comfortable among all the princes and princesses.
He said with a smile: "Since the beginning of historical records, the source of vitality is the energy of living beings. Without the nourishment of living beings' energy, the heaven and earth are not enough to give birth to vitality. In today's world, the energy of living beings is the energy of people. If people's energy is insufficient, vitality will be lost.
Not enough. With the country’s system, popularity is the source of official power. This is the basis for countries to fight and plunder the population.”
He picked up the last snow pattern fruit and threw it into his mouth: "So we should put people first!"
The Emperor of Da Qi did not comment on whether it was good or bad. He only pointed his hand at him and said: "Prepare another plate of fruit with this guy. The water needs to be sufficient!"
A palace maid came holding a jade plate.
The emperor finally looked at Jiang Wuhua and asked quietly: "What does the prince think?"
Jiang Wuhua stood up, bowed politely, and then said: "The emperor's brothers and sisters have spoken very well. I have nothing to add."
He smiled shyly: "I feel very happy."
