Under Yuan Gen's astonished eyes, Murong Fu strode out. After staying for a moment, Yuan Gen finally came to his senses and called out urgently: "Bulk, lay scholar, you must not take any risks!"
But how could Murong Fu take his words to heart?
Although Murong Fu had no ill feelings towards this old monk who had no airs and was kind-hearted, he also had his own plans.
When he heard Li Qianyuan say that he had caught a fierce tiger, Murong Fu guessed this possibility. He just felt that this little trick was a bit too immature. He thought that although Li Qianyuan was ineffective, he was still a member of a noble family, right? He was not so imbecile.
Bar?
Facts have proved that I still overestimated the other party.
When Murong Fu walked outside the main hall, several rows of people were already standing on the steps outside the palace. This group of Xixia's important civil and military officials were gathered together like onlookers in the market.
Even at this moment, it can be seen that there are clear distinctions between different groups of people. The civil servants stand together, and the generals occupy a corner. The two people form a semicircle surrounding a huge cage. Inside the cage, a strong tiger is standing.
Staring at the group of gorgeously dressed people in front of him with his huge eyes, his cold gaze revealed a formidable chill.
The tiger was obviously hungry. Seeing so many people so close, it dared to pull the cage with its claws and pounce in the direction of the crowd.
Fortunately, the cage was big enough, and the fence of the cage was made of fine iron railings as thick as a human forearm. Although the tiger was frightening, it couldn't even scratch a scratch on the cage, and it was just a waste of effort.
After playing tricks for a while, the tiger in the cage seemed to realize that it was not strong enough to break free from the shackles in front of it, so it gave up this futile behavior, with its huge head hanging on the ground and a pair of green tiger eyes.
It was still staring intently at the group of natural enemies in front of it that were supposed to be its prey, but had trapped it in this small place with no freedom.
More than two hundred high-ranking dignitaries from Xixia were admiring each other around the small cage. Most of them could not stop the tiger from killing them. Once the tiger got out of its trap, many of them would definitely disperse in a rush. Just because of this
With the barrier of a small cage, he proclaimed his bravery in front of this beast, nervously and excitedly talking about the king of beasts in front of him, and boasting about glorious deeds that did not exist.
One of the military attachés praised loudly: "Even with a sword at your side, it is very difficult to kill a tiger, let alone capture it alive. Seeing how fierce this beast is, I don't know how many people and animals have lost their lives under its claws.
The young prince was able to capture this evil beast alive, and with such bravery, even the famous general Li Cunxiao of the past could not compare to the young prince!"
As a famous general in the late Tang Dynasty, Li Cunxiao once killed thirteen generals of Li Tang Dynasty in one day. It is said that when he was fourteen years old, he killed a tiger with his own hands and saved his father. There have always been kings who can't dominate and defeat Li.
To put it bluntly, the military attache said that Li Qianyuan was better than Li Cunxiao, which can be said to be a flattery.
Everyone present knew what level this young prince was. If he were to say that he could capture a tiger alive, even ten more would not be enough. However, they all knew it tacitly and were too lazy to expose it, but they were so eager to flatter him like this man.
It's worn, but it's still unique.
Seeing the disdainful glances from everyone, the man didn't feel any embarrassment. Instead, he straightened his chest and raised his head, and leaned closer to the young prince.
This person is none other than Taoist Jiuyi.
Looking at the nine-winged Taoist who was actively flattering, Murong Fu's contempt for this guy could be said to be at its peak: After all, you are also a well-known master of martial arts for a long time. How can you do such an unclassy thing? Yunzhong Hedu
More moral than you!
Li Qianyuan seemed to be very proud. He cast an admiring look at the flattering Jiuyi Taoist, and then shamelessly talked about how he bravely fought the tiger, which was quite similar to Sun Shiwan's demeanor as a tiger-fighting master.
.
Li Yuansheng listened to his son's boastful talk. Although he knew what was going on in his heart, his face was very happy and he praised: "My son is so brave, he will definitely become the pillar of our country in the future. This is the blessing of the lonely family and the blessing of Daxia!"
Li Qianyuan saw that the heat was almost over and said with a smile: "Father, you are so complimentary. The child is still young, how can he bear such praise? But there is indeed an important thing for the child to bring this evil beast today!"
Li Yuancheng smiled and said: "What is important to my son? Just tell me!"
Li Qianyuan said: "Father, your Majesty: I am lucky to have subdued this evil beast. Today, all the virtuous people in Daxia have gathered, and the young and old have gathered together. I specially want to take this opportunity to test the bravery of my Daxia warriors!"
Li Yuan Sheng became interested and said with a smile: "How to take the test? Can you tell me?"
Li Qianyuan's eyes glanced around a few times, then landed on Murong Fu, and then he showed a smile of relief.
"I have always heard that our Great Xia Yipin Hall has collected all the masters from all over the world, and everyone who enters the First Grade Hall is a first grade. Therefore, I dare to ask my father to request a decree from His Majesty the Great Xia Emperor. If the warriors of the First Grade Hall can subdue this tiger in public today, then
I am conferred the title of Marquis, and I will forever be the Duke of Great Xia from generation to generation, regardless of hereditary succession!"
As soon as Li Qianyuan said these words, the crowd immediately exploded. They were surprised by Li Qianyuan's bold and whimsical actions, and were also moved by the other party's proposal.
The honor of a marquis is hereditary!
This is obviously something more exciting than the ordinary high-ranking official and generous salary. After all, even if you reach a high place through hard work, there is no guarantee that a few unscrupulous descendants will not be born in the future, and the foundation that the ancestors have worked so hard to build will be wasted in one day.
But having a hereditary title is different.
Even among the royal family, only a few people have titles, and most of the time it all depends on the reincarnation technology. What you are born with is what you will be until death.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After all, these civil servants and generals have seen the world, and they did not behave too rudely, but the excitement in their eyes could not be hidden.
To be honest, Murong Fu was tempted for a moment. His Murong family ancestors did have figures like Murong Yanzhao, the prince of Henan Province, but in his generation, he was just an ordinary person. But now, if he wants to be in the big country
It was almost impossible for Song Dynasty to get a title for himself, and even if he had a title, he had no actual power or fiefdom.
If it were Murong Fu before, he might have already taken action now.
But Murong Fu's mind only fluctuated slightly, and he felt that his idea was a little too funny.
After hearing Li Qianyuan's words, Li Yuansheng's expression changed and he said angrily: "Nonsense! How can I be granted the title of Daxia so easily? Even if it is to be granted, the decision-making power is still in the hands of His Majesty the Emperor. How can I tolerate a child like you?"
Do you act arbitrarily? Today is a big banquet. I will not hold you responsible for your nonsense for the time being. If it happens again, you will definitely be held accountable!"
How could Li Qianyuan be willing to let a good show that he had prepared for a long time come to an end so easily? He started arguing with his father. Seeing that the situation was getting out of hand, the arrival of a person ended the situation.
"His Majesty the Emperor's decree!"
A high-pitched voice attracted everyone's attention. This man was dressed as a eunuch, and the color of his clothes was obviously of high rank, and he belonged to the emperor's valet.
After hearing the emperor's decree, everyone bowed down and saluted.
"His Majesty the Emperor orally! I am very relieved to hear that the Prince of Nan'an used a tiger to test the warriors of Daxia Yipintang in front of the Yongxing Palace. In order to commend the warriors of Daxia and help my martial virtues prosper in Daxia, I promise that everyone who can surrender today will surrender with my bare hands.
Those who are ferocious tigers will be given a thousand taels of gold, and the tiger will be named a mighty lord, and he will forever be my fierce warrior in the Great Xia. He will be hereditary and will not be replaced!"
At this moment, it was like throwing a piece of ice into a frying pan, and the crowd exploded. Except for a few nobles who had been high-ranking and well-paid for generations, everyone present showed a hint of emotion, but the cold gaze of the tiger
It instantly cooled down their heated minds a lot.
Originally, when they heard about subduing a tiger, many people were eager to try it, especially those fully armed generals. For them, with full armor and their own bravery, it might not be impossible to subdue a tiger. But when they heard that it was done with bare hands, most people
They were all discouraged.
Just kidding, having armor and not having armor are completely different things, okay?
At first, some people were still unconvinced when they heard that only people from Yipintang were allowed to take action. After hearing this condition, almost everyone suppressed the restlessness in their hearts.
Everyone turned their attention to the two dozen masters with special skills in the First Grade Hall. These people usually saw the dragon before it came to an end, and they were famous for their strong martial arts. It was not certain that they could actually subdue a tiger.
