Li Hongcheng murmured.
"What, thinking about what just happened?"
An elderly farmer, around forty or fifty years old, walked over carrying a hoe.
Upon seeing this, Li Hongcheng quickly called out, "Father!"
Clearly, this old farmer is the only surviving brother of the current Emperor Qing.
Prince Jing, Li Zhi.
Prince Jing gazed at the calm lake surface and sighed:
"It's been so long since I've seen such a prodigious young man!"
"A grandmaster of such a young age, several years older than that guy Si Gu Jian, is truly unbelievable!"
Li Hongcheng asked, "Father, are all Grandmasters really that terrifying?"
Prince Jing said solemnly, "You must remember this: in this world, Grandmasters are no longer monsters that can be deduced using common sense!"
"Moreover, I have seen Ye Liuyun and Si Gu Jian fight before, and I'm afraid they are not as strong as this young man!"
Remembering that the Second Prince seemed to have the idea of recruiting Li Chungang, Li Hongcheng asked, "Father, do you think it's possible for that person to be used by us?"
Prince Jing shook his head.
"Never presume to control a Grandmaster!"
"However, even a grandmaster is human, and humans have weaknesses!"
"Si Gu Jian is trapped in the Sword Pavilion, Ku He has fled to the deep mountains, and Ye Liu Yun cannot let go of the Ye family."
"A grandmaster without ties may be invincible, but once ties are formed, even the sharpest sword may not be able to kill!"
After saying that, Prince Jing picked up his hoe and sauntered away.
Li Hongcheng remained seated.
Recalling what his father had said,
He muttered to himself, "Entanglement? What constitutes entanglement? Sending him some beautiful women?"
In the palace.
Eunuch Hou jogged into the Imperial Study.
He shouted loudly, "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Something terrible has happened!"
Emperor Qing raised his head, frowned, and said, "Speak slowly!"
Hou Gonggong responded, his tone tinged with disbelief, "Your Majesty! There are two things!"
"Today, at the poetry gathering at Prince Jing's residence, Fan Xian plagiarized the Crown Prince's poem 'Ascending to a Heights' in front of all the great talents of the capital, utterly disgracing himself!"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Qing frowned, a hint of confusion in his eyes.
Fan Xian copied poems?
Did they even copy the Crown Prince's poem "Ascending the Heights"?
No way? ! !
Denggao is so famous that everyone in the entire Kyoto Shangqi clan knows about the Nine Instruments and Nine Paths.
He shouldn't have copied this one!
Fan Xian's reputation is now ruined.
Would that old fox Lin Ruofu still be willing to let his daughter marry Fan Xian?
If Fan Xian doesn't marry Lin Wan'er, how can he take over the Imperial Treasury?
In that case, wouldn't the eldest princess be the biggest beneficiary?
Is there any hidden secret?
Emperor Qing's mind raced.
But he appeared very calm on the surface.
He said slowly, "Is there anything else?"
When Eunuch Hou thought of something else, a look of horror appeared in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, Li Chungang at the Jing Prince's residence cleaved a lake with a single sword strike. Rumors are circulating that he is not a ninth-rank master, but a Grandmaster!"
Emperor Qing was stunned.
"Slicing through a lake with a single sword? A Grandmaster???"
His brows furrowed deeply.
Compared to this incident, Fan Xian's ruined reputation is nothing.
This extra Grandmaster is related to his plan that he has been painstakingly laying out for many years!
For a moment, the atmosphere in the Imperial Study was quite solemn.
Eunuch Hou bent over, not daring to breathe too loudly.
"You go back first!"
"Yes! I'll take my leave!"
With a sigh of relief, Eunuch Hou quickly slipped away.
In the imperial study room,
Emperor Qing's eyes were filled with a chilling aura.
He recalled the intelligence he had gathered from his previous investigation of Li Chungang.
Both parents have passed away, and he lives alone.
He can use the Ye family to control Ye Liuyun.
But how should he approach Li Chungang?
An uncontrollable grandmaster should not live in this world.
A cold glint flashed in Emperor Qing's eyes.
The eldest princess's mansion.
Inside an attic, Li Yunrui sat by the window.
His expression was complex.
Logically speaking, Fan Xian's reputation was ruined.
She should be happy.
However, to my surprise, Li Chungang was so powerful.
Although she had already confirmed with Yan Xiaoyi that Li Chungang was a Grandmaster.
But its power was so great that it exceeded her expectations.
One sword cleaves the lake!
Can Ye Liuyun do it?
Perhaps she should find an opportunity to meet this incredibly powerful grandmaster at such a young age.
The incident of cleaving the lake with a single sword is still unfolding.
After all, those who come to the poetry gathering are all talented people; to say nothing of anything else, their oral and written skills far surpass those of ordinary people.
The news of a grandmaster's sudden emergence spread rapidly, described in vivid detail.
Many people also submitted articles to various newspapers.
There is even a portrait of Li Chungang.
Soon, within a few days,
The entire capital, and even the entire Qing Kingdom, and even Dongyi City and Sigu Jian, all learned of these 3717 pieces of news.
The Ye family, garrison commander of Kyoto.
Ye Ling'er learns that the villain who has been bullying her is actually a Grandmaster.
The shock I felt was indescribable.
She still naively believed that
As long as you master your family's secret techniques, the Flowing Cloud Scattered Hands...
We can defeat that great villain.
He made him kneel before him and weep bitterly.
Unexpectedly,
This villain is actually on the same level as his grandmaster Ye Liuyun, both of them are grandmasters!
"so what should I do now?"
Ye Ling'er suddenly felt that
Even if I trained for a hundred years, I still wouldn't be able to defeat that great villain.
While angry,
I couldn't help but recall the embarrassment of being spanked back then.
A strange feeling welled up inside me.
Such a young grandmaster,
Why do you have to play tricks on me?
Could it be that he's interested in me?
Ye Ling'er's pretty face blushed.
He quickly shook his head.
