The Yunhai Empire has not had such a grand event for a long time. This conference is to select talents. It can be said that it gives many people the opportunity to rise to the sky in one step. The first place has the title of Marquis, which means becoming a high-level person in the empire, because the title of Marquis is only Second to the prince, this caused many practitioners to sign up, and also made practitioners over thirty years old sigh because they had lost the opportunity.
Someone once proposed to expand the age limit, but the empire rejected it. The empire said that there was a war in the empire more than ten years ago, and people over the age of thirty had the opportunity to make contributions. This conference is to give opportunities to young people, although many people I'm not willing to give in, but I can't help it, because this is the emperor's order.
"Yan Wen, how many people have signed up for this conference?" Yan Fei, who was sitting on the dragon chair, looked at his second son and asked.
"If I go back to my father, there are thousands of people who have signed up, but in reality there are only two to three hundred people who can reach the stage in cultivation," Yan Wen said.
"Two or three hundred people are already pretty good. After the registration is over, as long as everyone who signed up will be rewarded with a hundred taels of gold, are there any particularly outstanding people?" Yan Fei asked, knocking on the table.
"My son has investigated and found that our two major academies in the Yunhai Empire can be said to be full of talents. Many disciples under the age of thirty from Weishui County's Fentian Sect branch have signed up, but some elites from Nanshan County have not signed up," Yan Wen said.
"Why," Yan Fei asked with a frown.
"Because some people are from the Luoye Mountains, they think they are from the Feiyu Empire and are incompetent," Yan Wen's voice was a little soft.
"It's not your fault. Feiyu Empire has only been established for a short period of time. It is already not weaker than our Yunhai Empire. It will definitely be the most powerful country in Fengling Continent in the future. Han Lingyuan, you have a good daughter," Yan Fei shook his head.
"I deserve death for my crime. Please forgive me, Your Majesty." Han Lingyuan knelt on the ground.
"What are you guilty of? Get up. Han Jun has the heart of Feiyu world and has won the support of all the people of Feiyu. I admire you very much for this." Yan Fei waved his robe sleeves and helped Han Lingyuan up.
"Your Majesty, we can send out troops. We have three iron armies in Yunhai: Tiger's Bend, Tiger's Power, and Sea King. They may not be able to withstand it," a minister said, and this minister was Haili Xin.
"The Feiyu Empire is united as one. Although the Feiyu Army is small in number, its combat effectiveness is unmatched by any other army. Zhang Wei, He Yong, can you win if I ask you to fight?" Yan Fei walked off the dragon throne.
"The last general is no opponent. Although the master of the Zhenbei Army is not here, the spirit has firmly existed in the hearts of every Feiyu sergeant. In addition, there are now three great generals in the Feiyu Army," Zhang Wei said.
Chen Dingxiao, who had been standing on the side of the dragon table, trembled when he heard the words Zhenbei Army God.
"The general will not go to war. If His Majesty is dissatisfied, the general can resign to serve the people," He Yong said.
"There is no dissatisfaction. You used to be a member of the Feiyu Army. From the generals to the soldiers in the Feiyu Army, they were all your brothers. You were right not to go to war. Hai Lixin, you used to be the deputy commander of the Feiyu Army. How can you say something about starting a war?" Yan Fei's eyes looked at Hai Lixin.
"I am loyal to the Yunhai Empire. Although they are brothers, they are treason after all," Haili said heartily.
"I emphasize once again that no one is allowed to mention war with the Feiyu Empire in the future. Remember, the Yunhai Empire owes them," Yan Fei said loudly.
"Yan Wen, continue to make arrangements for the Imperial Conference, let's go," the last sentence was addressed to Chen Dingxiao.
"I still have something to say to my brother," Chen Dingxiao looked at Chen Dingyun and said.
"Then you all go down," Yan Fei waved his sleeves.
"Ding Yun, I have investigated and found out that you sent the blood-clothed general to Luoye Town, which means you were the first to know about their mother and son. You have met your brother's grandson," Chen Dingxiao asked, looking at Chen Dingyun.
"I've seen him, but he doesn't recognize the Chen family now. Brother should understand this," Chen Dingyun said after thinking for a moment.
"Understood, it's impossible for him not to remember the orphans and widowers who were forced out of the Chen family. How is he doing?" Chen Dingxiao asked.
"Excellent, very outstanding, even better than Lingqi," Chen Dingyun said.
"Princess Chen, you said that child is better than Lingqi," Yan Fei said with some surprise.
"Yes, based on age and cultivation, he is much better than Lingqi," Chen Dingyun nodded.
"Where is he now," Chen Dingxiao asked.
"Brother, I'm sorry, I don't know. Even if I knew, I wouldn't say anything because I don't want him to think that there is no one trustworthy in the Chen family," Chen Dingyun said.
"If you don't know, it means that he is no longer in the Nanshan County branch. It seems that he has gone to the headquarters. It's good that he can grow up," Chen Dingxiao nodded.
"Brother, your grandsons need to be educated properly. Chen Feng lacks a sense of dignity and is not open-minded enough. Chen Qiang is too scheming. Chen Kun is a playboy. Chen... he broke one of his hands." Chen Dingyun said.
"Brother Wei is disappointed with them," Chen Dingxiao said.
"Brother, let me ask you, what will you do if the child has to deal with his father's affairs in the future?" Chen Dingyun knew that Chen Chen was so persistent and would not let his father be unjustly wronged for no apparent reason.
"I don't know," Chen Dingxiao shook his head.
"Your Majesty, brother, nothing happens. I'll leave first," Chen Dingyun said and left.
During this period, Chen Dingyun has been staying in Yunhai Imperial Capital, mainly helping Yan Wen handle state affairs.
Although Hai Wudi is the prince, he is a close confidant of Prince Yan Wu, and Yan Wen cannot trust him.
"Ding Xiao, we made a mistake. We should have dealt with the problem when it happened in the first place. Then there wouldn't be so many disadvantages now. After all, paper can't cover the fire. The hidden dangers at the beginning can't be suppressed now when they break out," Yan Fei replied He sat down on the dragon chair and said.
"Lingqi's child has a promising future, which is the greatest comfort to me," Chen Dingxiao said.
"Now that child doesn't forgive you, he will probably have a deep resentment towards you," Yan Fei said.
"Resentment is also deserved. Their mother and son have been treated so unfairly. They have been abandoned by the country and abandoned by the family. This is something that no one can accept. If he can accept it, then the blood flowing in his bones is not the blood of the Chen family," Chen Dingxiao said.
"Now that one of them is honored as the queen and the other as the prince, it is difficult for me and you to compensate. Even if you are given the status of a prince, they will not care about it," Yan Fei said with a sigh.
"Let nature take its course. I don't know how many outstanding talents will appear in this conference," Chen Dingxiao said.
"Ding Xiao, please go home and make arrangements. I don't want the Chen family of the Yunhai Empire to decline like this," Yan Fei said.
"Those guys are not up to par. I will go back and take a look and leave the family affairs to Lingnan, otherwise the Chen family will really disappear in the history of the Yunhai Empire," Chen Dingxiao said.
"Lingnan has never gotten married. I remember that he used to have a very good relationship with Lin Shangshu's daughter. Ding Xiao, you go back first. I will marry you tomorrow," Yan Fei said.
"That's right, it's time for Lingnan to get married. I'll take my leave first," Chen Dingxiao left the palace and walked towards the Iron Blood Prince's Palace.
The people of Yunhai who saw Chen Dingxiao all bowed to him. In the Yunhai Empire, he was the leader among tens of thousands of people. It could be said that he and Yan Fei had conquered the Yunhai Empire, so they were particularly loved.
"I've met the prince," Chen Dingxiao said. When he walked to the door of the Iron-Blooded Prince's Mansion, the guards at the door knelt on one knee to salute him.
"Without ceremony, tell them to come to the lobby to see the king." After entering the mansion, Chen Dingxiao knew who was there and who was not.
While Chen Dingxiao was sitting in the lobby with his eyes closed and meditating, the second and third generations of the Chen family arrived, and those who arrived knelt down to pay their respects.
"I met my father,"
"I met grandpa,"
"Father, you are back," Chen Linghao straightened his robe and was about to stand up.
"Kneel down," Chen Dingxiao opened his eyes, and two rays of light burst out.
"Yes," Chen Linghao quickly knelt down again.
"My father has not cared about the affairs of the Iron-Blooded Prince's Palace for twenty years. Linghao, you act as the head of the family. Does the Chen family still look like the Iron-Blooded Prince's Palace now?" Chen Dingxiao had an angry look on his face.
"My son realizes his mistake," Chen Linghao said tremblingly.
"You know you were wrong, then tell me where you went wrong," Chen Dingxiao said, not wanting to make a group of descendants stand up.
"Son... my son didn't take care of the Chen family well," Chen Linghao stuttered.
"You still don't know where you went wrong. Iron-Blooded Palace, do you still have any bloody spirit? If something happens to Lao Wu, one of you will step forward. If you cut off the relationship, you will get it done." Chen Dingxiao slapped him Make a big hole in the table.
"Father, it's me, the elder brother, who failed to fulfill my responsibilities as an elder brother," Chen Lingnan said.
"I don't blame you for some things. My father knows that you were not in the imperial capital at that time. My father also knows the torture you have suffered in your heart over the years. From tomorrow on, you will be the head of the Iron-Blooded Palace. Remember, you are not the acting head of the house, but the head of the house. I hope you will not let it happen. You are disappointed as a father, please get up." Chen Dingxiao knew his eldest son well, so he would not blame Chen Lingnan for whatever happened.
"My son will do his best. He will go to Feiyu Empire in a few days. I don't know how Xiaowu's child is doing now," Chen Lingnan stood up and said.
"You don't need to go, let this matter take its course. What my father wants to warn you is not to live in self-blame. Tomorrow the emperor will grant you a marriage. Only when you get married can you look like a head of the family," Chen Dingxiao said.
"No, if Xiaowu's matter is not resolved, I will feel uneasy and don't want to get married," Chen Lingnan knelt down again.
"Get up, Xiaowu has a father. If a father doesn't have a son, you don't have to worry."
