Chapter 26 Xuanyuan Qing

Nangong Jing's reaction was quite quick. Although he didn't know what Han Yan saw in him, since Han Yan asked to take him in as his disciple, Nangong Jing would definitely not miss this opportunity. He rushed to Han Yan, knelt down and prepared to become his disciple.

But before Nangong Jing could kowtow, he was stopped by Han Yan. Nangong Jing looked at Han Yan in panic. Could it be that Han Yan was going to go back on his word and not accept him?

"How can it be so easy for me, Han Yan, to accept a disciple? Little guy, don't be in a hurry to kowtow. Wait until I set a time to send out invitations to invite my friends, and then you can kowtow slowly." Han Yan saw the panicked look on Nangong Jing's face after he stopped him from kowtow, and thought to himself that he was still a child after all.

Nangong Jing then realized that he had misunderstood, and he breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled widely, "Yes, I've got that." Nangong Jing knew that his looks were quite pleasing, so he naturally had to make good use of them.

Sure enough, Han Yan looked at Nangong Jing's cute appearance and although he resisted reaching out to pinch her, the quickly clenched fists behind him revealed that Han Yan also enjoyed it very much.

After Han Yan and Liu Gongsheng left, the rest of the people lost their minds to practice. They all prepared to go back and spread the news that Nangong Jing was accepted as a disciple by a powerful summoner to their own families or the forces behind them, to see if they could find a way to make friends with him or what.

"Congratulations, Xiaojing. With Han Gongfeng as your master, your cultivation will be easier in the future." After the others left, Feng Xuanzhou came over and congratulated Nangong Jing.

Nangong Jing first thanked Feng Xuanzhou, then said, "Master may be able to give me better guidance and resources, but in the end, I still have to rely on my own efforts. If I don't work hard, then even the best master and resources will be useless."

Xuanyuan Xingyao agreed with Nangong Jing's words very much, because Xuanyuan Xingyao himself also believed that if you want to reach the highest point in cultivation, in addition to talent, it depends more on acquired efforts. If you don't work hard, no matter how strong your talent is, it will be useless.

Others only saw that Xuanyuan Xingyao was already a mid-level warrior at the age of seven and had great talent, but they did not see that since awakening at the age of five, Xuanyuan Xingyao had been getting up before dawn every day to hone his body and practice martial arts without stopping for a single day. It was this unremitting effort that had brought Xuanyuan Xingyao to his current level of cultivation.

There are no such things as secrets in the palace. Before his companions spread the news that Nangong Jing had been summoned to become a saint's disciple, the news had already spread throughout the palace. It could be said that everyone who should know it knew it, except for those in the cold palace.

Some people were surprised, some were worried, and some didn't care about the news.

The ones who were surprised were naturally the Empress and the Crown Prince. Nangong Jing was Xuanyuan Xingyao's study partner, so he naturally bore the label of being from the Seventh Prince's lineage. Of course, unless Xuanyuan Xingyao was determined to become the Emperor himself, Nangong Jing would also naturally bear the label of being the Crown Prince.

Anyone with a little bit of common sense can imagine how much benefit a disciple who summons the saint can bring to them. Although the prince is now very popular with the saint and he himself is very outstanding, no one will complain about having too many bargaining chips in his hands.

In direct opposition to the Crown Prince and the Queen were naturally the Imperial Concubine and her two children. Although the Imperial Concubine and the Second Prince were also very much favored by the Emperor, they were a little inferior to the Queen and the Crown Prince. Moreover, the Queen and the Crown Prince were orthodox, so they naturally gained the support of many ministers with feudal ideas.

The Imperial Concubine and the Second Prince were already far behind them, so they had gone to great lengths to win over the ministers, finally gaining a significant following. With this incident, they could already imagine how many wavering ministers would align themselves with the Crown Prince's lineage once the news of Nangong Jing becoming the Summoning Saint's disciple spread.

"Damn it, does that Summoner have poor eyesight? He's just a fifteen-year-old kid. What's so good about him? There are so many talented people in the world. How could we possibly recruit them all?" Xuanyuan Qing's young but handsome face was filled with unconcealable anger, and he kept jumping up and down in the imperial concubine's Tianqin Palace.

Although the imperial concubine was also very angry, she was still much calmer than Xuanyuan Qing. Seeing Xuanyuan Qing's outrageous remarks, she angrily scolded him, "Shut up! Can you just say that you want to be a Summoning Saint? It's just that one of Xuanyuan Xingyao's study companions was accepted as a disciple by the Summoning Saint, not that Xuanyuan Xingyao was accepted as a disciple by the War Saint. Why are you so anxious? If what you said just now accidentally got out, do you think the Summoning Saint would pretend that he didn't hear it? "

Xuanyuan Qing didn't feel anything at first, but after hearing what the imperial concubine said, he became a little scared. However, he felt embarrassed to admit that he was wrong, so he stood there without saying anything.

Didn't the Imperial Concubine know Xuanyuan Qing's temperament? He was narrow-minded and concerned about his reputation. If it weren't for his talent and skills, but his short temper, the Imperial Concubine would have wanted to bypass him and support Xuanyuan Xi. Although Xuanyuan Xi was also narrow-minded, he at least knew how to pretend, and he did it very successfully. Everyone in and outside the palace said that he had a good temper and good relationships.

The imperial concubine sighed inwardly when she saw Xuanyuan Qing was no longer talking. However, one good thing about Xuanyuan Qing was that he listened to her and was not as opinionated as Xuanyuan Xi. This would be more beneficial for her to gain more power after Xuanyuan Qing came to power.

"Well, although the current situation is very unfavorable to us, there is still a solution." The imperial concubine said meaningfully.

Although Xuanyuan Qing was a bit impatient, he was still quite smart. He understood what the imperial concubine said and asked, "Mother, do you mean for us to win over Nangong Jing?"

"You're quite smart. Although Nangong Jing is Xuanyuan Xingyao's study partner, he naturally stands on the side of the prince's lineage. But if we can win over Nangong Jing, it will not only weaken the strength of the prince's lineage, but if we use him well, we may even know more about the prince's side." An unfathomable look appeared on the charming face of the imperial concubine.
