Capítulo 761: Chapter 538: Martial Temple Dharma Decree, Seventh Realm Martial Saint (4K Seeking Monthly Tickets)
“I accept the decree!”
“I accept the decree!”
“….”
On this morning, as the imperial decree was issued, its sound reverberated through the nine gates of the palace, and a large group knelt before the Jinluan Hall!
The people kneeling looked at the Southwest Three Road Patrol Angel, Chen Yuan, who was clad in silver armor and received the bright yellow imperial decree from the Chief Companion of His Majesty; so were bewildered, so anxious, and so had gloomy expressions.
Yesterday, His Majesty did not agree, but today, he allows this Patrol Angel to return to Shu to take charge of the situation. The thoughts of the Emperor are indeed inscrutable and hard to fathom. Most importantly, sending this Patrol Angel to Shu is justified, as he’s the one who has dealt with the demons of the Ten Thousand Mountains the most and knows them well, making ands for his sins. However, with the decree, he also ordered officials down below to cooperate, making it quite a big affair.
Officials were mobilized from the Pri Minister’s Mansion, the Imperial Censorate, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Imperial Stables to coordinate with this Lord Chen’s actions.
Truly discomforting!
Especially those advisors who previously rebuked Chen Yuan in the court, now looking as if they’ve swallowed sothing bitter, holding it back, yet not daring to let others see it.
For instance, the Imperial Censor with the surna Fang, wearing the crimson official robe, who had publicly pointed his finger at Chen Yuan calling him a traitor, now received the decree to accompany as a military envoy, his expression as awkward as it could be.
At this mont, under the entangled and unpleasant gazes of many, Chen Yuan, holding the imperial decree with one hand, turned around, his pale golden eyes like a released tiger, swept over them, and said with a faint smile:
“Esteed lords, since His Majesty has decreed, I ask for your trouble!”
“After court, I will be waiting for you at the Sky Patrol Departnt!”
…….
After court, the civil and military officials exited the Jinluan Hall, leaving in succession according to rank, resembling a flock in formal wear, their crimson, purple, blue, and green robes mottling the colors of the Imperial City.
On the white marble Heavenly Ladder outside the Jinluan Hall, Chen Yuan, in his silver armor, stood like a watchtower, observing Doctor ng and Pri Minister Huangfu exiting, and greeted leisurely:
“I, Chen, have seen Mr. Huangfu and Doctor ng!”
Huangfu Liuyun and ng Ziyi paused, one narrowing his eyes with a sharp glint, the other showing a look of surprise.
“Lord Chen now bears the imperial mandate. The situation in Shu waits for no one. What are you doing here?” Huangfu Liuyun narrowed his eyes, hands behind his back, his voice cold.
“Naturally, waiting for the two elder statesn!” Chen Yuan raised an eyebrow and smiled, “Thank you both for recomnding to His Majesty in the court yesterday, otherwise I wouldn’t know how to repay His Majesty’s kindness with my status of wearing cris.”
“The magnanimity of you two, I could never have imagined, truly admirable!”
Huangfu Liuyun found these words particularly grating, his sharp eyes could plainly see the feigned smile on Chen Yuan’s face, his mouth corners twitching, his tone stiff,
“What exactly does Lord Chen want to say?”
Chen Yuan lowered his hand, his brows slowly raising,
“I previously did so improper things in my rashness, all misunderstandings.”
“This ti returning to Shu, I assure you I will duly take care of the people under you two, haha.”
Finishing, Chen Yuan’s laughter echoed in the air, “Farewell!”
Then turned and descended the stairs, his steps appearing remarkably light and brisk.
Behind him, Huangfu Liuyun’s face turned iron blue, watching his receding figure, then suddenly laughed,
“Is this a direct threat to ?”
Beside him, the muddied eyes of Imperial Censor ng Ziyi flickered with a thoughtful look, his aged voice carrying a tinge of confusion, he nodded slowly,
“It seems so!”
“But according to my observation, this Patrol Angel from Shu isn’t a re brute with superior force, pulling off such a move, it’s truly unexpected.”
“Heh, he thinks returning to Shu ans sothing. If this matter is not handled properly, that place might just beco his burial ground!” Pri Minister Huangfu had a fierce look on his face.
Doctor ng turned his head toward the Pri Minister, a aningful glance, “If what is stated in the morial is true, this matter will lead many reclusive old monsters to erge. Presumably, the Martial Saint ancestor of the Huangfu family would also be interested in it!”
Huangfu Liuyun shifted his indifferent gaze over, “Doctor ng always cares about my family’s ancestor, might as well focus more on how to handle this matter.”
“I’ll be leaving first!”
Saying this, the Pri Minister left with a less than happy disposition.
ng Ziyi’s gaze followed, lastly smiling, if not for the lingering influence of that Martial Saint of the Huangfu family, how could our Pri Minister sit at the head of the Three Ministers for so long.
How does it compare to the ng family’s four generations of Three Ministers.
This Confucian gentleman shook his head, helpless against the martial might that shocks the worldly halls; as long as the rumored-to-be-nearly-deceased-but-still-alive Bodhi Martial Saint remains, hardly anyone could budge the Huangfu family’s position in the court.
….
As Chen Yuan exited the Chengtian Gate, preparing to return to the Sky Patrol Departnt to plan his return to Shu, a sowhat familiar voice ca from beyond the city wall.
“Lord Chen!”
A simple yet grand bronze carriage lifted its curtain, revealing the figure of a middle-aged man in a scarlet official attire.
The carriage, accompanied by the clip-clop of hooves, approached Chen Yuan.
Inside, the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Rites, Xu Liang, bowed and then made a gesture of invitation, “The Martial Temple has a decree, knowing that you are to carry out the Emperor’s command on tour, they’d like to invite you for a discussion, it won’t delay your journey!”
Chen Yuan looked at this Vice Minister of the Ministry of Rites, who had entered the capital together that day but hadn’t shown up since, his eyes slightly narrowed.
That Lord Gou who backstabbed left a bad feeling, so I disposed of him.
This Xu Shaoqing, said the Martial Temple would diate in the matter, yet to this day, I have seen no such attempt.
