The seeds of the magical powers of the Six Ding and Six Jia guardians fell on Jiale's yang spirit.
After the supernatural power was completed, twelve divine lights were emitted to lead the guardian gods back to their positions. Jia Le personally selected the Jiazi divine position, and a golden light was emitted that fell on Guan Fei.
At this moment, Guan Fei suddenly understood everything and bowed to Jia Le.
"Jia Zi Shen Guan Fei, I pay my respects to my lord."
As soon as he finished speaking, the golden light disappeared, and when he reappeared, he was already above the Jiazi god's throne.
Jia Le, who had a guardian deity, also felt something different at this time. Above his Yang God, a circle of golden light protected him, becoming the first barrier against external demons. The Yuan Shen gave a warning, and Guan Fei, as the guardian deity, would be alert at all times, and give timely reminders and responses the moment he sensed danger.
The most important thing is that this gives Jiale an extra guard with combat power at the peak of the Return to Void Realm.
At this time, Jia Le couldn't help but sigh that it was worthy of being the supreme guardian magical power of Taoism. It was a great magical power that only the mountain master could practice, which was even more powerful than most of the innate magical powers.
Guan Fei said he was a magic god, but in fact he was performing the duties of a protector.
"My lord, the mountain god of Xuanwu Mountain once contacted me and warned me about the evil tiger. I'm afraid the situation is not good. Do you know?"
Jia Le shook his head when he heard this. The mountain god of Xuanwu Mountain was different from Guan Fei. Guan Fei was conferred by Taizu of Daqian and was a god on earth. Now he was even more despised by Daqian and lost the protection of the Emperor of Man. He was considered a god without a master. However, the mountain god of Xuanwu Mountain was different. He was a genuine god from heaven. Jia Le was not willing to get into such trouble.
"Don't worry about it. The evil tiger is dead. The mountain god of Xuanwu Mountain has the Heavenly Court behind him. There is no need to worry."
Guan Fei stopped talking after hearing this. While he understood the truth, he also did his best. After all, the mountain god of Xuanwu Mountain had reminded him before. Now he has repaid the favor and has a clear conscience. Naturally, nothing else matters.
After returning to Jiale Divine Sea, the cultivation of the Six Ding and Six Jia Dharma Protectors' magical powers was completed, and a Dharma Protector God Domain was automatically formed in Jiale Divine Sea, inhabited by the Dharma Protectors.
At this moment, the temple seemed to have returned to peace.
The morning star was hanging in the east, and before they knew it, it was already the fifth watch. Jia Le looked at Zhang Long and Zhao Hu, "Wan Sheng, from today on, they will follow you and train them well. It would be a shame if they were neither good at literature nor martial arts."
"Yes, sir."
Wansheng obeyed the order solemnly. Zhang Long and Zhao Hu did not dare to have any opinions at this time. The young master was too extraordinary. If they encountered such a situation again in the future, this might cost them their lives. At this time, they thought Jiale was no longer the young master who could be fooled. Although they didn't know what happened, they knew that if they wanted to live, they had to be obedient.
The sky gradually brightened and the carriage continued to move forward.
Jiale was not worried that Zhang Long and Zhao Hu would do something weird or tell others about their affairs. Firstly, Wansheng would tell them, and secondly, Jiale had placed a restriction on the two of them. If they said something they shouldn't, their memories would automatically disappear. If they followed the rules, they could still be trained, but if they didn't, they would have to be sent away.
Sun Zichu looked a little dazed. It was because what happened last night had really shocked him.
"Don't tell anyone else about what happened yesterday. After entering Jinling City, just focus on the exam. Don't worry about other things. Just study hard. Although the Sun family has a lot of wealth now, without enough power to protect it, it is like a tree without roots. It will only attract covetous eyes and cause trouble. So, you have to work hard."
Covet! Trouble!
Upon hearing this, Sun Zichu shuddered and observed three minutes of silence for those who dared to covet the Sun family's property and cause trouble for the Sun family. That was not seeking trouble, that was seeking death. In order to reduce the killing, he had to study hard.
Jinling City.
This was the ancient capital of the previous dynasty. After the emperor of the previous dynasty moved the capital to the south, he established his capital in Jinling. Although the previous dynasty was destroyed, after the establishment of Daqian, a lot of efforts were made in Jinling City. After all, it had the advantage of the canal. Soon Jinling City became the most prosperous place for business in Daqian. Being the richest family in Jinling is not just talk. The Shen family, the richest family in the entire Daqian, is located in Jinling.
Jinling City also became the most famous place in Daqian besides the Eastern Capital and the Western Capital, and the people called it the Southern Capital.
"Master, we have arrived at the Jingnan Grand Canal. It seems that we have just arrived at the annual Dragon King Banquet. There are many painted boats and noble boats on the canal, and there are even more literati and poets. I am afraid that all the talented scholars and beautiful women in Jinling have gathered here. Even many officials in the city have come. Master, should we go and take a look, or go directly into the city?"
Zhang Long's voice came from outside the car. Jiale slowly opened his eyes. Dragon King Banquet!
After leaving the temple, nothing happened afterwards. It was already the third day after our departure, and the city of Jinling was right in front of us.
Listening to Zhang Long's words, Jia Le seemed to be thinking about something. After searching through Sun Yan's memories, Jia Le finally understood what the Dragon King Banquet was all about.
The city of Jinling gathers the water veins of the Nine Provinces, and the Grand Canal south of Beijing connects the water systems of the Nine Provinces. This river was opened by Taizu. At that time, when the canal was opened, many water monsters threatened Taizu. Fortunately, Taizu made friends with the Dragon King and got help from the Dragon King. Since then, no water monsters dared to cause trouble, and the work of the canal was unimpeded. Taizu was grateful for the contribution of the Dragon King, so he designated a Dragon King Banquet to commemorate the Dragon King's contribution. It is held once a year on the canal outside the city of Jinling.
There is also a Wangjiang Tower beside the river, which is one of the most magnificent folk scenes in Daqian and has attracted countless literati and poets from the north and south.
Originally, the Dragon King Banquet was a major event in Daqian, and was mainly used to make scholars and writers famous. However, with the appearance of the Dragon King several times, the Dragon King Banquet has taken on more and more meanings.
Legend has it that if one can perform something shocking at the Dragon King's Banquet, he can be exiled to the Dragon King and have him host a banquet. If the Dragon King is satisfied, he can even marry the Dragon Girl. This has become an annual dream for men all over the world. Any man with a little talent and financial resources will travel thousands of miles to Jinling to see if he can become the Dragon King's son-in-law.
They didn't expect that they would encounter such a grand event.
Jiale looked at his grandson Chu next to him.
"Can you compose poetry?"
Reciting poems and composing lyrics are elegant pursuits, but they are not tested in the imperial examinations. They are mostly about literary matters. Jia Le knew that Sun Zichu was a scholar, but he didn't know whether he could recite poems or compose lyrics.
Sun Zichu was delighted when he heard this, "Don't worry, brother. Even if Zichu can't help you get the Dragon Girl, I will definitely not bring shame to our Sun family's reputation."
Jiale couldn't help but be speechless when he heard that. He asked, "If you know how to do it, why are you talking so much? Who said you wanted a dragon girl? You kept misinterpreting his meaning. Since you know how to do it, then go and join in the fun. What if it's an evil dragon? Maybe you can get the energy beads, and help your grandson Chu Yang become famous again, which will help him in the upcoming provincial examination.
"In that case, let's go join in the fun. Zhang Long and Zhao Hu, go find a boat."
Once on the water, the carriage is of little use.
Zhang Long and Zhao Hu love to join in the fun the most. Now that they heard Jia Le agreed, they naturally rushed to do it. In fact, from the attitude of Zhang Long just now, it can be seen that he has indeed changed. If it were in the past, Zhang Long would not be so good at dealing with people. He would definitely say: Young Master, let's join in the fun too.
Servants who often do the bidding of their masters are not popular. Facts have proved that Zhang Long and Zhao Hu are not bad human beings, but they are just used to being casual.
On the canal, the ships are very powerful nowadays. In the past, chartering a boat might only cost 98 yuan, but today it is definitely 998 yuan, and it is hard to get a boat. However, when it comes to doing miscellaneous tasks, Zhang Long and Zhao Hu are definitely experts. Wan Sheng is far behind him. Not long after, they came back and said that the boat had been hired.
On the bank of the canal, Jiale looked at the endless painted boats and noble barges, the numerous figures, and listened to the laughter around him. He couldn't help but smile, and the feeling of visiting a temple fair came to him all at once.
"Master, the big ship is gone. We only have a medium-sized ship."
When speaking, Zhang Long was still a little nervous. The Sun family was not short of money, so a ten-fold premium was no big deal. Sun Yan was a person who enjoyed priceless wealth, so this time he actually failed to do his job well.
Jiale glanced at Zhang Long and said, "Let's get on board."
The boat was big enough to hold fifty people. With Jiale and his five companions on board, plus two boatmen, there were less than ten people in total. However, it was very spacious. Zhang Long was indeed capable. A lot of food had been prepared in the cabin. Well, if Jiale hadn't seen that he was capable, he wouldn't have kept him by his side.
"Boatman, wait a moment, wait a moment."
Just as the boat was about to set sail, several shouts were heard from the shore, and everyone was attracted over.
"Sorry, this boat has been booked. Please find another boat."
When the boatman heard someone shouting, he had to stop what he was doing and explain, but the people on the opposite side were somewhat unwilling to accept it.
"Boatman, can you please be flexible? There are many people here today, and we are here on short notice. We really can't book a boat. I see there are not many people on this boat, so please take us with you."
There were six people in total, two men and four women. The two men were wearing scholar's clothes, but this was not very recognizable. Most of the men on the entire canal were wearing scholar's clothes. After all, the Dragon King Banquet was for poetry and songs. No matter who came, they had to wear scholar's clothes and pretend to be a cultured person. It would be embarrassing.
Of the two men, the one who was talking had a proud look on his face and must have come from a good family.
There were four women, probably two young ladies each with a maid, and they were of good looks and temperament.
The boatman was speechless. This was a chartered boat, could one take it whenever one wanted? Moreover, the fee had already been paid, so how could he take on more passengers and anger the guests?
"I'm sorry, this boat has been booked and can't take anyone. Please find another boat. We are about to sail. Please make way."
Jiale seemed quite satisfied with what he heard. If it were in his previous life, he would have taken along any boatman he met who was going the same way, and he might not even ask the boatman's opinion. It must be said that Jiale was very satisfied with these two boatmen just for this reason.
Seeing the boat was about to leave, the six people were getting anxious. The man who had spoken to them jumped directly onto the boat and shouted into the cabin, "Friend, can you come out and talk? When you are out, more friends mean more ways. We are willing to share the boat fare. If you don't want to, we can charter the boat and pay you double the money."
Zhang Long glanced at Jiale, and seeing that Jiale had no intention of paying attention to him, he stepped out of the cabin and came to the deck.
Zhang Long and Zhao Hu have both followed Sun Yan for quite some time, and they had been personally taught by Lin Ting how to behave and deal with things, so they naturally knew how to deal with the situation in front of them.
"Excuse me, my young master doesn't like to travel with others, please get off the boat."
While speaking, Zhang Long also glanced at the two young ladies on the shore, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly what a pity. If these two men weren't in the way, it wouldn't be impossible to discuss it with just these two young ladies. The young master has two young ladies to accompany him, and the maids can also be nagging. What a pity.
Encountering such a fool, he glanced at the man who was shouting on the deck. Although Lin Ting taught them to be harmonious, especially with those who were of higher status than the Sun family, Zhang Long's eyes were also trained. He knew that speaking in this way could not be taught by a noble family. At most, it could be taught by some middle-class families. The Sun family was not afraid of it.
The man was a little embarrassed to be rejected like this. If the two ladies were not watching him on the shore, he would have accepted it. However, in front of the two ladies and the one he loved, it would be too embarrassing if he couldn't get things done, couldn't get a boat, and couldn't attend the Dragon King's Banquet.
"Do you know where I am?"
Seeing that the man actually wanted to introduce his family background, Zhang Long shook his head. Lin Ting had taught him that one must not introduce one's family background before knowing who the person opposite is, because before introducing one's family background, it was a personal grudge, but once one introduced one's family background, it would be a grudge between two families. Even a servant like him knew this, but a young master didn't know it. It was obvious that he was not from a wealthy family. Thinking of this, Zhang Long looked down on the man in front of him even more.
"Throw it down."
Jiale's voice came from the cabin. Zhang Long immediately grinned and walked towards the man. In the past, seeing that the Sun family had lost their master, Zhang Long thought that they would have to keep a low profile when they arrived in Jinling City. Who would have thought that his own young master was the one who pretended to be a pig and ate the tiger, and directly became an immortal. What is there to be afraid of? From now on, as long as the young master speaks, let alone a wild boy who comes to cause trouble, even if a fourth or fifth rank official from Jinling County comes, he will have to throw him down.
Seeing Zhang Long approaching with his hands clasped, the man also became scared.
"You, what are you doing, don't come over here, I'm, uh, huh."
Zhang Long was very satisfied looking at the guy he threw into the river. He hadn't done this kind of thing for a long time since leaving Jinling City.
Inside the cabin, Jiale looked at the shore, um!
Jiale's face, which was originally calm, actually showed a bit of interest. Zhang Long followed Jiale's gaze and saw the two young ladies on the shore. At this moment, he seemed to understand something and smiled obscenely, "Master, how about I go and invite the two young ladies up? The Dragon King Banquet is coming soon and it's hard to find a boat. It's a sin for the two beauties to miss such a grand event."
"Go ahead and invite that young master up as well."
Jiale secretly praised Zhang Long for his cleverness, but this was not the right decision for him regarding which of the two ladies he had chosen.
Watching Zhang Long leave, Jiale looked at Sun Zichu again.
"Zi Chu, what do you think of the young lady on the shore? You will be taking the provincial examination soon, and you will definitely take the imperial examination and the palace examination in the future. If someone takes you off the list and wants you to be his husband, it will be troublesome. It's a good opportunity to arrange a marriage in advance."
ah!
When Sun Zichu heard Jiale's words, he also looked towards the shore. After seeing one of the ladies, his heart trembled violently and he thought she was so beautiful.
However, before Sun Zichu could think much about it, he heard Jiale's words and his face turned red. He stammered and didn't know what to say.
When Jiale saw this scene, he couldn't help but laugh.
Jia Le was not doing this rashly. The woman on the shore actually had a trace of Luan fate, which was definitely a blessing for her husband. Coupled with Sun Zichu's Qingjin luck, it was absolutely amazing.
Maybe with some planning, he could create a king or something. Jiale didn't know how long he would stay in this world. The upper limit of this world was very high, and the Return to the Void and Merge with the Tao realm was just the level of the human world. Jiale didn't know if he could break through in this world if he was above the celestial being. However, the higher the realm, the more difficult it would be to break through. So Jiale must make some preparations in advance. Maybe he would have to stay longer than Uncle Jiu's world.
It is better to be prepared. Jiale never underestimates the power of mortals. During the Human Emperor period, those Human Emperors were able to confer titles on gods and make immortals and Buddhas bow to them.
"Two ladies, and this gentleman, our young master invites you aboard."
As soon as Zhang Long finished speaking, the five people on the shore looked at each other in bewilderment. Seeing the man being thrown down, they thought there was no way out. But now, the host actually took the initiative to invite them up.
After looking at each other, the two women were wary in their hearts, but seeing that the host even invited the male companion on board, they thought that he should not have any bad intentions. Maybe he was not that difficult to talk to, but just looked down on the man he met before.
That's right, the man who was thrown into the river by Zhang Long was not with them. He just saw that the two women were pretty and came up to chat with them, saying that he could get a boat. They also knew that it would be difficult to get a boat at that time, so they agreed to go with him. Who would have thought that what the guy said he could get was actually like this.
After hesitating for a while, the five people boarded Jiale's boat.
The person who fell into the water had already been rescued by the patrolmen. The Dragon King Banquet was a big event in Jinling, so naturally there were patrolmen arranged. However, incidents like this where people were thrown into the water happened quite often, and they were basically done by young masters who were jealous and wanted to show off their power. The patrolmen also wanted to not offend anyone, and they just rescued people and made sure no one died.
However, the man at this time had no time to blame these patrols. Looking at the team he had joined with great difficulty, they now abandoned him and directly boarded the boat that threw him down, the man was angry no matter how he looked at it, and the resentment in his heart was unparalleled.
"I, Zhao Ying, swear not to be a human being until I take revenge for this."
Jiale naturally wouldn't care about the impotent rage of an ordinary person. At this time, four women and one man had already boarded the boat and came to the cabin under the guidance of Zhang Long.
Looking at where Jiale and his group were sitting, the man stepped forward and bowed.
"I am Wu Qing from Jinling. Thank you for letting me take the boat! These two are my sisters."
It turned out that the two women were actually Wu Qing's sisters, but one was her biological sister and the other was her cousin. The biological sister was called Wu Baoer and the cousin was called Wang Xiaomeng. The one that Sun Zichu fell in love with was Wu Qing's biological sister Wu Baoer.
"It's a small matter. If your friend hadn't been so rude, we wouldn't have made things difficult for him. When you're out, it's inevitable that you'll encounter difficulties. Just do as you please."
Seeing that Jiale was so easy to get along with, Wu Qing was relieved. He thanked him again and started to move around on the boat. The scenery on the canal was endless, but the ultimate goal was Wangjiang Tower.
"The golden sun shines with the spirit of literature, and the summer water and the long sky are the same color. Brother, this Jinling Canal is worthy of being the source of the water veins of the Nine Provinces. The scenery is pleasant and well-deserved. When I was in Jiaozhou, I only often heard my father mention it. Now I finally see it, which is enough to comfort my life."
Looking at the beautiful scenery above the canal, Sun Zichu couldn't help but sigh. This short poem attracted everyone's attention.
The Daqian Dynasty valued civil officials over military officials, and the status of scholars was very high. People with outstanding literary talent like Sun Zichu were most popular among girls. Sun Zichu was eloquent and very attractive to Wu Baoer and Wang Xiaomeng.
"You are from Jiaozhou?"
Wu Qing also liked to make friends with knowledgeable people. Seeing that his grandson Chu was very talented in writing, he walked over with his two sisters and asked a question.
Wu Baoer and Wang Xiaomeng also looked at Sun Zichu intentionally or unintentionally, as if they wanted to listen together.
Sun Zichu didn't have so many thoughts. It's not that Sun Zichu was stupid, but he knew that if these people were not good people, Jiale would not agree to bring them up.
"Brother Wu, my ancestral home is Jinling. My father later settled in Jiaozhou. My sister and I were born in Jiaozhou. We came to join my brother some time ago. This is the first time I have seen Wangjiang Tower."
Wu Qing did not ask further questions after hearing this. He knew the principle of talking about deep things with people you have only just met. However, Wu Baoer was a little curious.
"What kind of scenery does Jiaozhou have?"
When Sun Zichu heard that it was Wu Baoer who asked the question, he was a little at a loss. Jiale was happy to see it happen, "Zichu, go talk to Miss Wu about Jiaozhou."
After hearing Jia Le's words, Wu Baoer realized that something seemed to be wrong with her, but Sun Zichu regained some confidence at this time.
"Jiaozhou..."
Wu Qing looked at Jiale's appearance and immediately became alert. It was too obvious that he was chewing the cabbage. However, Jiale looked at Wu Qing.
"Brother Wu, Sun Yan from Jinhua is right. I wonder if Brother Wu is from the Wu family of Jinling?"
Hmm! Wu Qing looked at Jiale and nodded, "Brother Sun knows me?"
Jiale shook his head. "I heard my father talk about it. I was young at that time, but I still remember Uncle Wu Jun came to visit our house. It was Uncle Wu Jun who gave me my name. I wonder how to address Brother Wu and Uncle Wu Jun?"
Hmm! Wu Qing's eyes widened instantly upon hearing this. Is it such a coincidence? He actually got on a boat with an acquaintance?
Another salute, at this time Wu Qing had forgotten about the cabbage, "It is my father, brother Sun, is he the descendant of Sun Tongpan?"
Jiale nodded slowly. Jinling was not a big place, nor was it a small place. Wu Jun was the prefect of Jinling County, and Sun's father was the magistrate of Jinling. They had a good personal relationship. Wu Jun even came to mourn in person at Sun's father's funeral. Jiale naturally would not take these relationships into consideration. However, after this calculation, Jiale could not have imagined that it would be such a coincidence.
With a common topic, the conversation became much easier. For Jiale, dealing with Wu Qing was a piece of cake. For a moment, he even felt a sense of mutual admiration.
Looking at Sun Zichu, he was already chatting with the two women. Women love talents, and Sun Zichu has talent, so he is a perfect match.
"Master, we're here."
They had arrived at Wangjiang Tower. Jiale glanced at Wu Qing and asked everyone else to get off the boat.
The Wangjiang Tower is thirteen stories high. Standing on the top floor, you can see the river bank and the mountains on both sides. Normally, you can go up to the tower as long as you have money, but today it is not possible.
Every time you climb a floor, you must have poetry or songs. The first four floors must be at the county level, the middle four floors must be at the prefecture level, the top four floors must be at the state level, and if you want to reach the top, you must have a national poem.
No one can break this rule, not even the big shots in Jinling. Jinling gathers together the literary talents from the four southern states. Although Mingzhou poems are rare, it is not that no one can write one. But the national poems are even more rare. Therefore, over the years, even the big shots in Jinling can only stay on the twelfth floor.
Wangjiang Tower was nominated by Taizu himself. It can be used to measure the literary talent, poetry, and songs of the author, as evidenced by the plaque on the tower.
Jiale glanced at Wu Qing and asked, "Brother Wu, come first?"
Wu Qing is naturally talented in literature, and his luck is also green. Jia Le also likes him. He can be an assistant to Sun Zichu in the future. Plus with his status as the eldest brother-in-law, it is basically a sure thing. Now is a good time to see his quality.
Wu Qing was also the one who took the responsibility. He came here to show off his literary talent. Moreover, he had just taken the boat for free, so he had to contribute now.
After thinking for a while, Wu Qing stepped forward and began to compose a poem.
The sign on the building responded and lit up red. It was a poem about leaving the county and could go directly to the fourth floor, which meant that this poem about leaving the county was about to reach the prefectural level.
However, Wu Qing was obviously not satisfied with this. After a moment of thinking, he came up with another poem.
This time the reaction of the building sign was even more obvious, it directly lit up blue, Dafu!
The literati in the building also exclaimed at this time, and it was obvious that they admired this poem very much. Although literati looked down on each other, they were willing to praise good literary talent. What's more, many of them knew Wu Qing, the son of the county magistrate, and they flattered him directly.
Seven floors.
Wu Qing was not surprised by the fame or disgrace, and led Jiale and others to the seventh floor, but it was difficult to go any higher.
"Brother Sun, my literary talent is limited, so I am afraid I can only entertain you here."
Jiale smiled and looked at his grandson Zichu, "Zichu, why don't you write a poem as well?"
Sun Zichu was also timid when he heard this. He might not be good at emotions, but he had absolute confidence in his literary talent.
After seven steps, he began to recite poetry.
After only two sentences, the sign on the building actually lit up green, shocking everyone inside and outside the building. Even Wu Qing couldn't hide his shock. Wu Baoer and Wang Xiaomeng covered their mouths, looking at Sun Zichu with horror in their eyes.
Jiale just watched. Some people have a hard time finding a wife, while some people really can find anything they want, like Sun Zichu. It seems that Jiale doesn't need to worry too much about him.
As soon as the four sentences fell, golden light suddenly appeared, Mingzhou!
This poem finally alarmed all the important figures in Jinling who were already seated on the twelfth floor.
"Which talented scholar in Jinling is it that has published another poem about Mingzhou? Come up quickly."
The building sign pointed directly to the twelfth floor. At this moment, Sun Zichu was facing Wu Baoer's admiring eyes and felt a little hot. Jiale invited Wu Qing to go up together.
Wangjiang Tower has 12 floors.
"Qing'er, your poetic talent is not enough to write a poem about Mingzhou. Could it be this young man beside you? No, you are Yan'er?"
At this time, the Jinling County Magistrate was actually in the Wangjiang Tower, and there were many people sitting there. When he saw Wu Qing come in, Wu Jun suddenly stood up and looked at Jia Le, and he actually still remembered him.
"Mr. Sun, I always feel that there are two more lines in this poem that should be correct."
Wu Baoer was also a talented woman. At this moment, she was walking up with Sun Zichu. Her mind was completely immersed in the poem that Sun Zichu had just written. She did not notice the people on this floor at all. Sun Zichu also smiled.
"Indeed, there are two more lines: A hero stands up at the edge of the abyss, and the flowing river will not let you down."
As Sun Zichu finished these two lines of poetry, the already golden signboard suddenly burst into golden light again, covering the entire Wangjiang Tower and then turning into a ray of purple.
"Poem to protect the nation!"
Someone shouted, and then the whole building was in an uproar. It had been thirty years since a national poem was born, and today they had the chance to see the birth of a national poem. Wu Qing looked at Sun Zichu with disbelief on his face, while Jia Le was smiling, his luck was surging. This trip to Wangjiang Tower just happened to help Sun Zichu.
boom!
As this poem came to an end, the Jinling Canal began to boil as if it was boiling. In front of the Wangjiang Tower, the river water actually split into a path in the middle, and a phantom of the Dragon Palace appeared before everyone's eyes.
"The national poet is here to welcome you to the Dragon Palace!"
After seeing the scene before them, everyone was even more shocked. It was true that the Dragon Palace welcomed guests, but it basically never appeared again afterwards, so people gradually treated it as a legend. Now it actually appeared, which was enough to be recorded in the national history.
Looking at Sun Zichu, everyone's eyes were burning, as if they had seen a rare treasure.
"What is this gentleman's name?"
When Sun Zichu first came to Jinling, no one knew him. However, with such a talent for poetry, not only Wu Jun, but also the Jinling County Magistrate, the Yangzhou Education Commissioner, and the Jinling Education Commissioner came forward to inquire about him. When Sun Zichu first saw such a big scene, he didn't know how to deal with it for a moment, and hurriedly looked at Jiale. Unconsciously, Sun Zichu had already regarded Jiale as his pillar.
After seeing Jiale's ability, let alone saying that he only wrote a poem to protect the country, even if the poem became famous throughout the world, it would still be his younger brother.
Jiale pulled his grandson Chu in front of the group.
"Teachers, this is my cousin Sun Zichu, who came from Jiaozhou a few days ago. This time he came to Jinling to take the provincial examination. It happened to be such a grand event, thanks to the teachers."
Jiale introduced a few more people to Sun Zichu, who met them one by one. With Wu Jun's introduction, everyone knew the identities of Jiale and Sun Zichu.
The son and nephew of the late Sun Tongpan, this also has a basis, and for a moment everyone thought it was very reasonable.
"The Sun family has produced great talents and great fortune."
Everyone sighed. The officials of Yangzhou and Jinling looked at Sun Zichu as if he had seen a rare treasure. Especially when they heard that Sun Zichu was going to take the provincial examination, they were even more jealous. This provincial examination would be hosted by them, so they would inevitably get the position of the seated teacher. Don't underestimate this position, it would be a great thing for both Sun Zichu and them.
At this moment, a team of Dragon Palace etiquette walked out of the Dragon Palace, came in front of Sun Zichu and Jiale, and bowed to them.
"My two lords, the Dragon King invites you."
