Chapter 13: Slaying the Dragon and Enshrining the Zen

"Does this green-haired turtle want to 'slay the dragon and become a celestial being'?"

Yu Huaian roughly guessed Emperor Xia's ambitions.

He once worked in the Western Factory's archives. In his spare time, he read through many files and gained some understanding of the history of Daxia and the deeds of its successive emperors.

As for the Fengshan ceremony, it can be traced back to the founding emperor Su Jue...

Before Su Jue started his war, he was a wandering knight who called himself the reincarnation of "Taiyin Sword Emperor" of the Toad Palace. With the "Thirteen Swords of Cold Moon" in his hand, he looked down upon the world.

After he established his rule in the Central Plains, he borrowed the name of the moon god and called himself "Wangshu" the Great Emperor.

Influenced by this founding emperor, the worship of the moon god gradually arose throughout the country of Daxia.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival, the emperor of later generations would lead all officials to hold a ceremony to worship the moon.

According to Taizu's will.

In later generations, emperors with outstanding achievements and meritorious services could, during the Moon Worship Ceremony, hold their sword "Cold Moon Sword" and ascend to the sky to kill the Chilong beasts raised in the Spirit Beast Garden. They could offer sacrifices to the Moon God with dragon blood, thereby obtaining the Moon God's blessing and having their names recorded in history.

Whether the so-called blessing of the Moon Goddess actually exists or not is not the point.

The important question is -

Who is qualified to decide whether the current emperor is qualified to perform Fengshan?

The answer is.

The Duke of Beihai Liang has been hereditary since the founding of the country!

The first Duke of Liang, Wan Qilin was the sworn brother of Taizu Su Jue, and had made great contributions to the establishment of the Xin Dynasty.

Out of absolute trust, Su Jue bestowed the sword on the Wan family and ordered successive Dukes of Liang to supervise government affairs, eliminate corrupt officials, and evaluate the emperor's merits and demerits.

Of course, the so-called supervision of state affairs is just a polite gesture.

In fact, the actual power in the hands of successive Dukes of Liang was only one -

Assess whether the current emperor is qualified to slay dragons and become a god, and hand over the Lengyue Sword!

If Yu Huaian remembers correctly.

Since the founding of Daxia, there have been only three emperors recorded as having accomplished the feat of slaying the dragon and offering sacrifices to the gods.

These three emperors were all extraordinary heroes who were unparalleled in governing the country, had outstanding military achievements, and created a prosperous era.

As for the current Emperor of Xia, Emperor Yuantai Su Wudao......

Yu Huaian totally didn't understand why this guy did that.

Because the hat on your head is big enough and green enough?

Emperor Yuan Tai was a man of mediocre ability. In his daily life, he either practiced evil skills in seclusion or pretended to be cultured by writing a bunch of nonsense poems. He seldom paid attention to state affairs.

There were even many bizarre rumors in the palace, saying that the disappearance of Queen Mingyue, the biological mother of the three princesses, was related to Emperor Xia.

After Queen Mingyue disappeared, Emperor Xia's mental state became abnormal. He often ran to an abandoned backyard in the Zongwuyuan alone and talked to himself in front of a dry well, which was very horrifying.

Such a person was actually called "the perfect saint" and "the exiled martial artist from heaven" by those corrupt scholars in the Hanlin Academy.

Pure "shock wave".

Think of this.

Yu Huaian suddenly felt some sympathy for the future emperor of Daxia.

Killing the dragon and offering sacrifices to the gods was the highest pursuit of the Xia emperors of all dynasties.

If Emperor Yuan Tai really invited Duke Liang to teach him the sword, and succeeded in slaying the dragon and becoming a celestial being...

Later emperors will only be ashamed of this!

This is where the Fengshan ceremony ends.

My thoughts gradually came together.

Yu Huaian looked at Concubine Wan who was silent aside.

The "most beautiful woman in Daxia" who had just been sticking out her tongue, moaning, twisting her waist, and interacting with him passionately, now had her eyes lowered and her expression solemn.

It's rare to see her so serious.

"Sister Zhen'er, you're not really going to agree to this green-haired turtle, are you?"

Yu Huaian was muttering to himself.

Emperor Xia, who was standing by, could no longer sit still. "My beloved concubine, what do you think? Why are you silent?"

"I naturally understand what Your Majesty means."

Wan Zhen'er sat up straight, her round and soft peach blossom eyes became extremely cold and stern, "But I think that the Fengshan matter is too hasty, I am afraid... my father will not agree."

"Oh, my dear, what are you talking about?"

Emperor Xia looked displeased, frowning his thick eyebrows, and said, "The Duke is not only the Duke, but also the father-in-law of the emperor! If there is anything you don't agree with me, you can just say it out loud. We are all family, why bother!"

"not to mention--"

At this point, he forced a smile from the corner of his mouth, his expression was quite flattering: "The Duke dotes on his beloved concubine the most. If you are willing to say a few words for me, maybe-"

"This is my duty, and I will do my best."

Before Emperor Xia finished speaking, Concubine Wan interrupted him in a nonchalant tone, "However, my father has his own judgment. I cannot guarantee whether he will listen to it."

"That's fine! As long as my beloved concubine takes action, this matter is halfway to success in my opinion!"

Seeing the Imperial Concubine nod, Emperor Xia was overjoyed, clapping his hands and laughing, "Excellent! Excellent! My beloved concubine, if I can succeed in the Moon Festival this year, I will make you the first empress of all ages, and you will be honored and favored by everyone!"

"In that case, I would like to thank your Majesty for his kindness."

Wan Zhen'er's voice remained calm.

Oh my god, the Green-haired Turtle is the emperor after all, and Sister Zhen'er's behavior is too cold and perfunctory!

No face at all!

Yu Huaian was a little frightened watching from the side.

Wan Zhen'er is like two different people in front of him and in front of Emperor Xia!

He finally realized how heartless women can be towards men they don't like!

He was silently mourning for the victim in his heart.

Suddenly, Emperor Xia looked at him with interest and said, "Tsk, you, little eunuch, are not only handsome, but also so knowledgeable and efficient. The West Factory hasn't had a talent like you for a long time."

"It's great to be young. You remind me of my youth. At that time, I was full of vigor and vitality, and I was extraordinary and heroic, far better than you."

Emperor Xia sighed repeatedly as he looked at the handsome young man who looked like a god.

Then, he added: "But, I have a peerless beauty like the imperial concubine by my side, what more could I ask for!"

Yu Huaian smiled and said nothing.

As a man, he could still figure out some of Emperor Xia's psychology.

It was probably because he saw that Yu Huaian was young and handsome, and was loved by his beloved concubine and little daughter, so he was a little jealous.

But when he thought that Xiao Anzi was a eunuch, he suddenly felt a sense of superiority.

Little did he know that, except for the back garden, he had basically visited all of his beloved concubines...

"My beloved, it's a rare opportunity for me to come to your Fengluan Palace. Why don't you take me around for a tour?"

Emperor Xia suddenly suggested.

"Okay, that's what I meant. Your Majesty, please follow me."

Wan Zhen'er smiled politely and walked forward.

Seeing the other party approaching suddenly, Emperor Xia was as if struck by lightning, with a look of panic, and took a few steps back: "My dear...my beloved, you know that I practice the "Nine Yang Dragon Divine Art". I'm afraid it's not convenient... to get too close to such a beautiful you."

"I understand."

Wan Zhen'er smiled but didn't smile.

"As long as my beloved concubine understands."

Emperor Xia chuckled and looked at the only third person in the hall: "Look, Xiao Anzi, I am touring the garden with my beloved concubine, so you don't have to follow us. Just do your job."

"Farewell, Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

Yu Huaian was overjoyed!

I was worried that I wouldn’t have the chance to escape!

If we continue to stay here, who knows what kind of suicidal thing Concubine Wan might do!

However.......

He still underestimated the woman who had toyed with him for five years!

Just as he watched the two people, one zhang apart, step out of the door one after the other.

Concubine Wan, who was walking behind him, suddenly turned her head and winked at him charmingly. Then, she deliberately put her hands behind her hips and pulled up the edge of her skirt towards him little by little, revealing her snow-white and fleshy thigh roots, and...

It turns out that this woman, from the time she finished removing the poison to the time she was chatting and laughing with Emperor Xia, had not worn any clothes...

Yu Huaian was shocked.

This is fucking...

She plays it too perverted!

However, this time, he couldn't blame the other party.

after all......

This is the scenery that Emperor Xia longs for day and night but can never obtain, it is the scenery that belongs only to him, Yu Huaian!

........

........

When I strolled out of the harem, the sun was setting.
