It was early in the morning, and the sun was rising from the east. The rays of light penetrated through the clouds in the sky, dispersing the slight coolness from last night.
A nation cannot live without a king for a day.
Three days of Nangong Sheng's filial piety had passed, and all of the Imperial Palace's mourning garments had been stripped away, turning into the bright yellow and bright red colors of the new Emperor.
The loud and clear ringing of the bell broke the silence of the capital, and also roused the princes and ministers who had been waiting outside the hall for a long time.
The auspicious dragon image on his body was extremely lifelike, and the nine five-clawed golden dragons seemed to be the most expensive and dignified. Nangong Li's footsteps were even, his gaze was steady, and as if the attention of the crowd did not affect him in the slightest, he slowly walked up the steps of the great hall.
Jiang Yun half-knelt in front of Nangong Li and softly announced, "Your majesty, the time has come!"
Nangong Li nodded, "Announce!"
When the official walked into the hall, the official stood outside the hall with a serious expression on his face. Nangong Li then took out the jade seal that Nangong Sheng had passed to him.
This jade seal was the symbol of the past Eastern Tomb Emperors, not only as a proof, but also as a proof. With this jade seal, one could mobilize the hidden secret guards of Eastern Tomb, and just by listening to the emperor's orders, it would be enough to rule over the entire Eastern Tomb.
Otherwise, everything would have been said in vain!
Nangong Li expressionlessly received the dagger, cut his finger and dripped his blood on the jade seal.
The jade seal slowly drank Nangong Li's fresh blood, and in the end, emitted a dazzling light, gradually enveloping Nangong Li within it.
However, the kneeling ministers below the main hall burst into an earth-shattering cheer.
"Long live Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty!"
"Long live Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty!"
"Long live Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty!"
Once the jade seal absorbed the blood, it would emit light, meaning that it had already become its master. Dripping the blood into the heart meridian would allow the jade seal to be more convenient.
Feng Xie slightly narrowed his eyes, staring at the Nangong Li whose face and dignity had been bowed to without any change in his expression, and could not help but praise in his heart, "As expected of one of the three Young Masters, Nangong Li does indeed have his own abilities!"
Nan Gong Sheng suddenly passed away. In just three days, Nangong Li managed to completely cover up Nangong Sheng's funeral, and even forced him to produce a set of auspicious clothing, after the bell and drum rang for three days, the officials of the Ministry of Rites had also finished their offerings. Furthermore, in a rush, they allowed the inauguration ceremony to end, so that no prince in the four nations would be as bold as he is!
Although Feng Xie and Nangong Li were not that good either.
This proved Feng Xie's breadth of mind. This kind of Nangong Li might really chase away his entire Spirit Qi Continent one day.
With regards to Nangong Li's ability, Zi Lingxue had never doubted it, but it was Zuo Qianrou who seemed to have something wrong.
"Qian Rou, what's wrong? Is it because I'm not feeling well? "
Zuo Qianrou felt a little awkward as he retracted that silly look in his eyes. He quickly shook his head, "No …." "It's okay, I was just thinking about something just now, so I was distracted!"
Zi Lingxue nodded her head, and smiled playfully at Zuo Qianrou.
Nangong Chen had always been following behind Nangong Li, and that was to the extent that even though Zuo Qianrou's eyes were looking at Nangong Li, Zi Lingxue always mistook him as Nangong Chen. He always thought that Zuo Qianrou was infatuated with him.
Zi Lingxue had always been a decisive and murderous person towards other things, but in terms of emotions, she was also a confused person. It would be difficult for such a person to make her understand the true feelings in her heart for Yun Xuan.
Narrator Zi Lingxue: You don't understand emotions, but you can blame me for that? This is the first time I've had a boyfriend in two lifetimes! Humph!
"Lingxue!" Just as Zi Lingxue was joking with Zuo Qianrou, Feng Xie's voice suddenly turned cold, "Look!"
Zi Lingxue followed where Feng Xie's eyes were looking at, and saw a group of people dressed in white, looking like a celestial being, led by a man dressed in white. Yun Feng!
That's right, it's the Yun Clan Enforcement Squad Yun Feng that they had once met in the Bei Yue!
What did the people from Yun Clan want to do here! Zi Lingxue's heart tightened, she was more excited, could it be that Yun Xuan had news?
"Let's wait and see what they want to do." Feng Xie glanced at Zi Lingxue's absent-minded look.
He was really jealous!
The only one that Zi Lingxue would care so much about was that brat, Yun Xuan!
Who knew what kind of virtues Yun Xuan had accumulated in his previous life, to actually be able to cause Zi Lingxue to be dead set on fighting! Feng Xie was a little upset, but back to the main topic, Feng Xie did not feel that there was anything good about seeing the Yun Summit in the Eastern Tomb!
"En..." "Alright then!" Zi Lingxue returned back to her seat.
Evidently, when the other ministers saw Yun Feng and the others come over, the brows of Nangong Li, who was sitting on the dragon throne, tightened.
Yun Feng and the rest remained unperturbed under the gaze of the crowd. With smiles on their faces, they calmly arrived in front of Nangong Li and congratulated him, "Your Majesty, I came here to congratulate you by order of the Yun Clan!"
As he finished his sentence, the scene was completely silent. Everyone had different expressions on their faces.
Although Yun Feng said this with a smile, this sentence made it difficult for people to feel at ease.
Yun Clan boasted to be the world's largest clan, and even sealed up Yun Shan. Normally, let alone interpersonal relationships, even going down the mountain was a rare thing, yet now they were here to congratulate Nangong Li on ascending the throne? Nangong Li admitted that he did not have any deep ties with Yun Clan, so it was not worth for them to come to congratulate him!
No matter how you looked at it, it looked like a weasel paying its respects to a chicken. It did not have good intentions!
"Father had just passed away. I originally wanted to simplify the matter regarding enthronement, but I didn't expect that it would alarm the Yun Clan. It truly makes me feel guilty!" It was clearly an official's speech, but from Nangong Li's mouth, it was extremely serious.
Yun Feng cupped his hands together, "Your Majesty, where are you saying this? The Yun Clan and the Eastern Tomb are near. As a friendly nation, we should be here to congratulate you on your ascension to the throne."
"If that's the case, then I must really thank Yun Clan for your good will!" Although his heart was suspicious, Nangong Li still had to show courtesy, "Since you're here, then let's wait for the banquet to end before leaving.
Yun Feng disapproved of everyone's reactions, and pretended not to understand Nangong Li's courtesy, "Haha, His Majesty's words are too polite!"
"Since that's the case, then I won't be polite!"
The corner of Feng Xie's mouth twitched, this Yun Feng was really "You're welcome!"
Yun Feng laughed heartily, "Truth be told, the first reason for coming here this time is to congratulate the Fifth Prince on ascending the throne. This second matter …"
"Our Yun Clan has also had a happy occasion recently."
