Chapter 311

Ji Weiwei Yuan had just settled down in the post house when Zhao Tong arrived.

Ji Weiwei Yuan welcomed Zhao Tong into the courtyard and sat down in the main hall. Zhao Tong looked around and said, "The Holy King values Lord Wei quite highly; this Yixin Courtyard could only be lived in by princes and dukes when they returned to the capital in the past, and ordinary people cannot live in it."

Ji Weiwei Yuan immediately looked terrified: "Then I should change to another courtyard; overstepping the rules is not a small matter!"

Zhao Tong laughed and said, "The King has already allowed you to enter the court with half-courtesy, so naturally you should be raised a level in normal times. You are already second-rank, and it is appropriate to be treated with first-rank courtesy; just live here with peace of mind!"

Ji Weiwei Yuan stood up and bowed toward the direction of the palace from afar, then sat down, saying he was overwhelmed with fear.

Zhao Tong nodded slightly and said, "This servant came here to tell Lord Wei about the arrangements for this trip, so as not to be in a hurry and lose the response."

"Please instruct me, Eunuch."

Zhao Tong then said, "The first major event is meeting the Emperor. The King was very happy to hear that you have entered the capital and set the audience for the early court tomorrow. Hehe, the King is very eager!"

"What is the content of this audience, and what preparations need to be made?"

"The most important thing about this audience is to determine your jurisdiction."

Ji Weiwei Yuan said, "Isn't this kind of thing already decided? Where do I have room to speak?"

Zhao Tong smiled and said, "Lord Wei is indeed clever! But that is the ancestral custom; Lord Wei is a special case, so it is naturally different. This servant will give you a hint first; this time the jurisdiction will only be divided into the southeast, not the northwest. The east and south have already been decided, and the west and north can be taken by yourself."

This result was already within Ji Weiwei Yuan's expectations, but there were still some questions, so he said, "The expansion of the realm does not distinguish between east, west, north, and south; it will slowly pass over, and crossing the boundary is inevitable. What should be done about this?"

Zhao Tong made a 'hehe' sound and said, "Is Lord Wei testing this servant? Jurisdiction and the realm are not the same thing; the realm has expanded to the east, but the jurisdiction is not necessarily yours. As for the west, even if the realm hasn't reached it, it doesn't hinder it from becoming your jurisdiction. Let's talk about the east; Lord Wei, as the Realm Lord, whether the weather is smooth in the realm is just a matter of your thought, isn't it? Those officials serving in your realm will have to look at your face in the future, won't they?"

Ji Weiwei Yuan was stunned: "Can it still be like this? Aren't they here to... check and balance me?"

Zhao Tong said, "Under normal circumstances, it should be so, but who let Lord Wei be highly favored by the Saint and have someone backing you? The Western Regions are barren, and the King didn't think much of them originally. If Lord Wei makes contributions in the future, those commanderies and counties in the east now are not impossible to be returned to you."

"Thank you for your guidance, Eunuch!"

"The second major event is the autumn hunt. This is now the top priority in the King's heart. It is said that a high-ranking person calculated that a person who performs well in this autumn hunt can stimulate the national fortune of Great Jin and make the national power of Great Jin rise to a higher level. So, for public or private reasons, Lord Wei must do his best; this is this servant's private words."

Has the Jin King also started to believe in this set?

Ji Weiwei Yuan complained in his heart, but his mouth was crying out: "Eunuch, you don't know, I will become weak after leaving the realm; now my Dao power is only two or three percent left, what can I use to compete for the lead?"

Zhao Tong said, "This servant has also heard about Lord Wei's affairs, so I specially brought a treasure."

He took a small bottle from his sleeve, put it on the table, and said, "This is the Jade Void False Body Pill, a treasure this servant stole from the inner treasury. This pill cultivates truth through falsehood and can borrow one's own Dao power from past time, which can restore one to peak strength in an instant. Lord Wei might be able to use it."

This was an unexpected surprise. The Jade Void False Body Pill is a famous precious medicine for healing in battle, which can recover in an instant, and the price is to be weak for a period of time afterwards. For Ji Weiwei Yuan today, this medicine is quite symptomatic; after taking it, he will return to his peak state within thirty breaths.

After accepting this pill, Ji Weiwei Yuan immediately ordered someone to bring a box of immortal silver to offer, and Zhao Tong put it into his sleeve without changing his expression, then rose to leave.

After Zhao Tong left, Ji Weiwei Yuan began to carefully sort out the news in his words. And the fact that he could send the Jade Void False Body Pill shows that he knows his own situation quite well. It seems that the traitor in the realm knows a lot.

In addition, Zhao Tong specifically mentioned the autumn hunt, so Ji Weiwei Yuan also knew that this autumn hunt must be quite important to the Jin King, just don't know if it is the significance revealed on the surface.

At this time, people sent visiting cards one after another, all of whom were officials of various sizes in the Western Jin court. Ji Weiwei Yuan looked at them one by one; they were all officials who were neither high nor low, or had some connection with himself, or were some who were idle and not ambitious, wanting to drill into the path of the new nobility.

Those truly big figures either relied on their status or were unclear about the Jin King's true attitude toward themselves, so naturally they would not jump out to make friends with themselves at this time.

Ji Weiwei Yuan ordered his followers to collect the visiting cards, while he entered the quiet room to practice. Since the establishment of the Azure Void, this was the first time he had left the Azure Void so far, which had far exceeded the theoretical limit. At this time, the ten thousand miles of rivers and mountains were dead silent, the ground did not reveal a trace of spiritual energy, and the entire Dao foundation appeared somewhat illusory.

Ji Weiwei Yuan tested himself; the Dao power he can use now is roughly equivalent to one-tenth of that in the realm, and this part of the Dao power is stored in the flesh. The power of the flesh is as usual and has not been affected. In addition, the three immortal plants are still full of vitality, and the Scarlet Night Sword is still shining as before.

Ji Weiwei Yuan tried the various ornaments in the Dao foundation again; all the faceless warriors were in a semi-illusory state and could not be driven. But the girl Yin-Yang had no changes, and Ji Weiwei Yuan believed that if he had enough heavenly luck, he could still drive her to take action, but now Ji Weiwei Yuan had no heavenly luck at all, and was very likely to owe some.

Unexpectedly, the newborn Dharma Form warrior could actually move!

Although it was very heavy to drive, like a rusted iron man, he could indeed move! It is thought that because he possesses a Dharma Form, he can more or less absorb vitality from heaven and earth, so he can barely drive it.

After checking his physical condition, Ji Weiwei Yuan held the Scarlet Night Sword and began to observe the sword, forgetting both himself and the object in the blink of an eye. This audience with the Emperor depends on the Ten Thousand Generations Sword.

Early the next morning, Ji Weiwei Yuan finished washing, changed into a brand-new second-rank court dress, and boarded the carriage that had been parked at the door of the post house. When he walked out of the courtyard gate, the sky was still dark, the surroundings were silent, and the whole city was still sleeping.

The carriage passed through the streets and alleys and stopped in front of the palace.

At this time, the palace gates had already opened, and carriages arrived one after another, and court officials of various sizes got off and entered the palace in a line. When Ji Weiwei Yuan got off the carriage, many eyes of attention were cast on him, but no one talked to him. Ji Weiwei Yuan was born sensitive, so he naturally noticed that most of the eyes cast were unkind.

Ji Weiwei Yuan didn't look sideways, stepped into the palace gate, crossed the square, and walked toward the main hall.

The sky was not yet bright, and when the first ray of light appeared, the hall was already crowded with officials, standing silently.

At this time, many palace lanterns above the throne in the hall were lit at the same time, projecting beams of light, turning into a white jade bridge on the side. Then, several internal officials led the way, and the Jin King walked into the main hall from the side, stepped on the white jade bridge turned from the light, walked step by step to the throne, flicked his sleeves, and sat down slowly.

The lights on the top of the hall changed again, and beams of light shone around the throne, making the throne dark instead, and the Jin King's face was hidden in the shadows; if it was just a glimpse, it was difficult to see the Jin King's expression clearly, let alone know his joy, anger, sorrow, and joy.

The early court began, and the officials bowed.

Ji Weiwei Yuan did not yet have the qualification to discuss matters in the hall, so he was arranged to stand in the corner under the hall. As the officials knelt and bowed, he knelt on one knee and did not appear abrupt.

After the ceremony, the Left Prime Minister came out and said: "Today, the Dingxi Military Governor Ji Weiwei Yuan has entered the capital to meet the Emperor to thank the King for his grace."

!.

"Where is Ji Weiwei Yuan?"

The internal official beside Ji Weiwei Yuan made a gesture, so Ji Weiwei Yuan walked out from under the hall and stepped into the hall steadily. In an instant, the eyes of all the civil and military officials in the court fell on him, with scrutiny, curiosity, but mostly suspicion and disgust.

But these eyes were like substance, and Ji Weiwei Yuan was instantly like carrying a mountain on his back, and his legs were actually soft!

Most of the court officials have cultivation, and most are Dharma Form cultivators. Even the two small internal officials standing in front of the throne in the hall are in the late stage of Dao foundation cultivation, and there are two extremely deep breaths hidden in the shadows on both sides of the hall, like a rippling illusory ocean. Ji Weiwei Yuan had only seen this kind of breath on Ancestor Xuanyue.

Obviously, there is more than one Master Yu Jing cultivator outside the hall, paying attention to the movement in the hall at all times.

In the entire hall, Ji Weiwei Yuan has the lowest cultivation and is in a weak state, and his Dao power has retreated to the level of an ordinary Earth-rank cultivator.

These court officials looked like knives, and they had already seen Ji Weiwei Yuan's reality clearly. And some eyes were clearly unkind, adding a lot of pressure to Ji Weiwei Yuan out of thin air when they fell on him. As a Dharma Form high cultivator, he can already limit the transformation of emptiness into reality, and can exert thousands of catties of force just by looking.

In an instant, more than ten thousand catties of weight were added to Ji Weiwei Yuan!

Ji Weiwei Yuan immediately understood that someone wanted to make him kneel or even collapse on the ground and make a fool of himself in front of the hall!

These people's actions were subtle, and it is very likely that the Left Prime Minister and Right Prime Minister, who are Master Yu Jing True Lords, were also unaware, and the Jin King, who was high above, was also calm.

Ji Weiwei Yuan suddenly felt a hot blood rushing to the top of his head!

Heaven, Earth, Ruler, Kin, and Teacher can all be worshipped and should be worshipped. Receiving the title and salary of Jin, worshipping the Jin King is also the meaning of righteousness. But forced kneeling is something Ji Weiwei Yuan cannot tolerate! That person or those people even wanted him to collapse on the ground and become a laughingstock from now on.

Ji Weiwei Yuan knew that this trip to the capital to meet the Emperor would inevitably cause many storms, but he didn't expect someone to make trouble secretly in the hall.

Ji Weiwei Yuan's mind turned, and in the blink of an eye, he had already made a decision. In an instant, the joints in his body made a dense sound, and his flesh gave birth to great strength out of thin air, and his knees, which had already bent, actually stood straight against the pressure of the Dharma Form!

The person behind the scenes seemed shocked, adding great force three times, but could only make Ji Weiwei Yuan sway slightly, unable to suppress him at all.

Seeing that some court officials were already slightly moved, the invisible pressure then slowly dissipated, very unwilling.

The early court audience is just a process; the Jin King encouraged a few words, and after Ji Weiwei Yuan thanked him, he was led out of the hall by the internal official. Next, the court officials discussed political affairs, which is a secret that Ji Weiwei Yuan cannot hear.

When leaving the palace, Ji Weiwei Yuan looked back, a sneer on his face.

Such people only dare to do some tricks in the dark; if they really don't like him, why not take tens of thousands of iron cavalry to test his quality? Such behavior made Ji Weiwei Yuan see their internal weakness. Ji Weiwei Yuan already had a rough idea of who it was.

Since they wanted Ji Weiwei Yuan to make a fool of himself in front of the hall and become a laughingstock, Ji Weiwei Yuan did not intend to be polite.
