Entering the Martial House, the fragrance of the Jade Orchids disappeared, but what came into his nose was the faint smell of cherry blossoms, the pink cherry blossoms were much more distinct than the white orchids, and were as beautiful as a blushing little girl.

Gu Mengyan lifted his little head and felt the little fat bug's comfortable roll in his arms, and curiously rested his head on Mu Tu's shoulder and looked ahead. The big door of the Martial House was getting closer, and when he saw that the tall tower behind the Martial House was mostly covered by the clouds, he felt very comfortable, so he immediately rubbed the fat silkworm in his arms and squinted his eyes, bringing his nose closer to Mu Tu's neck and happily took a sniff at the sweet smell.

The plaza was surrounded by all sorts of cherry blossoms, making this ordinary plaza seem especially warm. The meetings of the Martial House were basically held in this plaza, with the sky above the imperial city on the east, and the officials observing the sky, which meant that all the students in the Martial House were from the heavens and the stars.

The City Guard was guarding the door. The nobles and nobles had arrived, and the rich families were chatting. The Tianjiu Army was here, and the Emperor was here. Why did so many people come today? Could it be that the recruitment ended here?

The students moved their wrists and legs, bowed, and with a few light gestures, they prepared to begin the Martial House's Large Competition.

"Huh?!" Mu Tu suddenly raised his head and looked at the emperor, his heart inexplicably having a sense of familiarity. Under the arrangements of the eunuchs, the old man slowly sat down, a pair of dragon eyes lightly swept across the plaza.

The main seat was still empty, and the seat opposite the emperor was also empty. However, after he ascended the throne, he would come to the Martial House every year to see his teacher. The first place was the position of the current leader of the Martial House, Kong Yi herself, and the position of the Martial House's chief, Shengong Tusu, was right across from him.

The entire Shengong's was annihilated, the mountain chief had not seen the emperor, and the chief was left empty-handed with no more descendants.

Even if the two seats were empty, no one would dare to make a single sound. All the ministers in the court knew of the affection the Emperor had for the Martial House, and even if the Eastern Mountain Institution Road was removed from his name, the Academy's annual enrollment ceremony would still not go down.

There were female students in the ceremony, but there were no female members among the onlookers. Since the death of the empress and before the emperor was established, none of the female members dared to come without a leader. No one dared to be the leader.

The bell on the mountain chimed nine times, the Martial House's competition was called out, all the fruits and tea in the plaza were collected, the Plan in his hands were also collected, the beaded curtains on the walls were lifted, and the emperor could see the various students in the competition. His expression was calm, and his gaze inadvertently swept across the women's seats several times.

The eunuch by the side saw that the emperor's mood was a bit off, so he hurriedly bowed and smiled, "Congratulations Your Majesty, all the heroes of the realm are gathered here."

When the Emperor heard this, he returned to his senses and looked deeply at the kneeling eunuch. It was only after a long time that he finally opened his mouth. "You!"

Suddenly, he felt that someone was missing from his side. Frowning slightly, he said to the eunuch at the side, "Huang Jueweng didn't come today?"

The eunuch hurriedly replied, "Lord Huang has taken a leave of absence today. His wife was injured, so she was afraid that she would disturb the holiness of the ceremony. Furthermore, he also apologized to the mountain chief, and the mountain chief agreed."

"He is close with Shuyi, is there anything you can tell me?" The emperor looked at the eunuch expectantly.

"The mountain chief said that it's time for the East Mountain Academy to change a new disciple. This year, he will choose a new disciple and appoint the next mountain chief." The eunuch fell to his knees in fear.

"I have forgotten, the mountain chief is indeed old. It's okay if the Martial House's mountain chief or teacher chooses!" He looked back at the top of the tower behind him and was silent for a moment.
