Chapter 154: The teacher returns to the court, and the monarch lowers his rank to greet him(1/2)

 The fifth day of October.

Under the escort of Ye Jinghong, Du Ning led tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to transport various materials obtained from attacking the grassland and arrived outside the capital of Yun Kingdom.

When he learned that the soldiers were about to arrive in the capital, Emperor Hongxuan led the kings and civil and military officials to the gate of the capital early in the morning to greet them with the courtesy of a hero.

In addition to the officials of the imperial court, there are many scholars in the capital, including students from the Guoxue Palace and children from various aristocratic families.

When the common people heard that the Yun Kingdom conquered the grassland people and changed their name to Yuanzhou to strengthen the national destiny, they all wanted to see such a mighty warrior, and they all came outside the city one after another.

There were huge crowds of people inside and outside the city gate. In order to maintain order, the Royal Forest Army had to be dispatched to delineate the boundaries of the site.

Wu Xiangwen was also among them. The soldiers and horses of the imperial court returned to the court after a victorious battle. As a student of the Guoxue Palace, it was impossible not to come to celebrate.

But for some reason, Wu Xiangwen felt a little uneasy.

He felt something might happen today.

But today is the day when the soldiers and horses from the Western Regions return to the court. It should be a good thing and nothing unlucky will happen.

Wu Xiangwen took a deep breath and slowly calmed down his emotions.

In addition to Wu Xiangwen, many people from the Xianwen Society also came. Although they usually believed that the Eight Xian Kings were more suitable to be emperors, when they heard that King Yan's soldiers and horses defeated the grassland people, they were very happy as a Yun country person.

They didn't have to come, but as people from the capital, they had to come, otherwise it would be against etiquette and it would discredit the wise king.

Several miles away, Ye Jinghong saw the gate of the capital already in sight, and suddenly said to Du Ning beside him: "The capital is ahead, I will escort you here, we will meet again later."

Before Du Ning could reply, green clouds rose from Ye Jinghong's feet and flew into the air.

Many generals were in awe. Ye Jinghong went to the Western Regions to protect Du Ning to kill the enemy, and also participated in the battle to capture the grassland. He was also a man who made military exploits.

Even if he is not directly appointed by the imperial court, he still deserves to be rewarded by the imperial court.

But no one thought that Ye Jinghong would choose to leave at this time.

This is exactly what you need to do to retire after success!

"Mr. Ye, take care along the way."

Du Ning said loudly: "When I return to Suzhou, I will have a drink with you."

"Mr. Ye, see you soon."

"Mr. Ye, take care."

"Mr. Ye, please be safe."

The soldiers of the three armies said goodbye one after another, watching Ye Jinghong's figure gradually disappear into the sky.

"Keep going."

Duning continued to move forward on his horse, and the soldiers also accelerated their marching speed.

After arriving in the capital, Du Ning saw many people in the capital.

They cheered enthusiastically and were very excited.

The kings and civil and military officials stood on both sides of the road, and the ceremonial guards welcoming the three armies were also extremely majestic.

"The Emperor has arrived!"

Following Eunuch Feng's loud singing, Emperor Hongxuan appeared on the city wall of the capital.

This was the first time that Emperor Hongxuan appeared in a grand public event as emperor. Before this, many literary figures in the capital resisted Emperor Hongxuan, and many words were spread to slander Emperor Hongxuan's reputation.

When the grassland people attacked the Yun Kingdom, those literary forces had been criticizing Emperor Hongxuan and strongly demanded that Emperor Hongxuan abdicate as a wise king.

Now, under the leadership of Emperor Hongxuan, the Yun Kingdom has won a great victory for the first time. It not only regained the lost land in the Western Regions, but also unified the grassland territory and strengthened the national destiny.

Even Emperor Jingwen could not accomplish this feat alone.

Emperor Hongxuan wants to tell the people of the world what it means to be the king of a country, what it means to be the true master of kings, and what it means to be a powerful nation!

"See the Emperor."

"Long live my emperor, long live the emperor."

All civil and military officials saluted Emperor Hongxuan.

The scholars immediately bowed, while the common people knelt down and worshiped.

I am sincerely convinced and no one is dissatisfied!

Who dares to say that a wise king is more suitable to be the king of a country? Who dares to say that the young emperor has misled the country and the people? Who still dares to say that Yun Guo is a weak one?

All the people of the Yun Kingdom felt proud and proud at this moment. They had a new monarch who could create a prosperous age, and they also had a young and promising leader of the court.

Harvesting grasslands and strengthening the country's destiny is the best proof.

"Excuse me."

Emperor Hongxuan's voice still had the tenderness of a child, but it was full of the might of a monarch. As an emperor, his aura could also intimidate everyone present.

The common people stood up, and the scholars also accepted the courtesy.

Everyone held their heads high, wanting to see the young emperor’s face.

"Is he the current Emperor Hongxuan?"

"The rumors only say that he is a teenager, and it is indeed true."

"I met him in the Guoxue Palace. He said that Wu Xiangwen could only talk on paper, but I didn't expect that he was actually the emperor!"

"Wu Xiangwen's reputation is completely ruined."

Many scholars in the Guoxue Palace looked at Wu Xiangwen with ill intentions.

Wu Xiangwen gritted his teeth and his eyes were about to burst.

He never imagined that the child he looked down upon that day would actually be the emperor of Yun Dynasty.

The emperor controls the destiny of a country. Even if he is not a scholar of Confucianism or Taoism, he can still have the spirit of a true dragon in his body and help the destiny of the country.

With the jade seal in hand, one can also mobilize the power of the national movement to kill the great scholar.

This is the emperor!

"Poof!"

Wu Xiangwen spat out blood. The moment he learned the identity of Emperor Hongxuan, his bile completely cracked, his eyes rolled up, and he fell to the ground.

If Emperor Hongxuan does not abdicate, his Confucianism and Taoism will not be able to make further progress.

"What a pity, what a pity."

"In any case, they are also the elites of the National Academy of Sciences, and they have fallen to this end."

"You deserve it! It's not good to go against anyone. You have to go against the emperor. The more he resists the emperor, the stronger the backlash he will receive from the fate of the country!"

"The shame of the Guoxue Palace!"

Many people pointed at Wu Xiangwen and yelled at him, treating him like a pig or a dog.

"Ah! My literary courage!"

"Your Majesty, have mercy! The student knows his mistake!"

"No! No!"

Some students from the Xianwen Society screamed. They had seen Emperor Hongxuan who visited privately incognito on some occasions, and they were also affected a lot. Either their literary courage cracked, or their literary palace was shaken.

"Someone, take them down!"

A certain general waved his hand, and the soldiers immediately rushed over and captured all those scholars who had problems with their literary talents and literary palaces, including Wu Xiangwen.

"Take them down and investigate them carefully. If they commit serious crimes, they will be severely punished!"

"Your Majesty, forgive me! The students will never dare to oppose you again. The students have realized their mistake!"

"Eighth Prince, save us, save us!"

The scholars of the Xianwen Society shouted out, and they looked at the Xianwang, hoping to gain support from the Xianwang.

The wise king glanced at those people, a little anger appeared on his face, and then quickly disappeared.

"You..."

The people of the Xianwen Society were furious. They had paid too much for the Xianwang to ascend to the throne, and now the Xianwang pretended not to know them for his own sake.

This is a strong man cutting off his arm, and a lizard cutting off his tail!

They never expected that they would fall into Emperor Hongxuan's trap when they came to celebrate the return of the imperial army and horsemen.

Xianwenshe became the trigger of this incident!

Once there is a problem in their literary palace, it means that they were once hostile to Emperor Hongxuan, and the soldiers here will have enough reason to arrest them.

When Emperor Hongxuan paid a private visit incognito, he secretly came into contact with many students from the Xianwen Club.

Now those students are all here, serving them all at once!

From now on, there will no longer be a Xianwen Society in the capital, and they will all be wiped out by Emperor Hongxuan.
