"quiet!"
Wei Xun's sharp "hello" suppressed all the noise.
Gu Jinzhi, wearing a dragon robe, walked slowly up to the throne with a gloomy face.
"My dear ministers, I'm sure you've all seen this." He went straight to the point. "The Queen has made some progress in her cultivation and is about to achieve a breakthrough. This is an auspicious sign."
"Last night the stars moved strangely, and today all things have returned to spring. This is all due to the Queen's breakthrough, not a disaster. You don't need to panic, and you must not make rash comments that will shake the people's hearts."
As soon as the words fell, the hall fell into dead silence.
Then, some clever ministers reacted, stepped out and knelt down, weeping.
"God bless Dajing! God bless your majesty!"
"Your Majesty's contributions are as great as those of nature, and your grace has benefited all mankind. This is an unprecedented event! I congratulate Your Majesty! Congratulations to Dajing!"
His voice seemed to light the fuse.
All the civil and military officials in the court knelt down, shouts of "Long live the emperor" rose one after another, and all kinds of unprecedented compliments were thrown at the emperor on the throne as if they were free.
Phrases like "Feng Yi's virtue moved heaven and earth" and "Mu Yi's benevolence spread throughout the world" made Gu Jinzhi's temples throb.
He suppressed his impatience, said a few more words of comfort, and then announced his withdrawal from the court.
However, things did not stop even after the court was dismissed.
As soon as he returned to the imperial study, reports from all sides came in like snowflakes.
Only then did he realize that he had underestimated the scale of the vision.
Within a radius of fifty miles from Yujing City, from Tong County to Liangxiang, the earth came back to life overnight, and all the flowers bloomed!
Fortunately, the factory guards had already spread the word that "the grace of the Mother of Heaven had descended upon the world" as he wished.
Otherwise, chaos is inevitable.
As a result, Li Wei's reputation among the people was completely elevated to the altar.
Especially the huge lotus bud that can be seen all over Kyoto is simply the best footnote to the miracle.
Countless people, carrying their elderly and children, flocked to the imperial city from all directions, kneeling in a black mass on the main road, carrying incense, candles and offerings, and kowtowed in the direction of Guanglian from afar.
The sound of devout prayers merged into an ocean, washing over this ancient capital.
Shops were closed, workshops stopped working, and the daily operations of the entire city were almost paralyzed on this day.
It was not until night fell again that everyone went home and quieted down.
After dinner, Zeng Yi also returned from the camp outside the capital.
"The army is fine," he said, taking a long sip of tea. "They've been given land and their food and wages haven't been withheld. They're all incredibly loyal."
"Seeing this scene again today, our morale is even higher. They're roaring during drills, even more energetic than me."
Gu Jinzhi nodded and told him the information he had received during the day.
After hearing this, Zeng Yi smacked his lips, a look of surprise and doubt on his face.
"That's not right..." He frowned. "A sixth-level breakthrough to Grandmaster level shouldn't make such a big noise, right?"
"Also, what happened to the weather last night?"
These problems also troubled Gu Jinzhi.
Breaking through to the third level in the mirror world is unheard of.
The upper three levels are very different from the middle three levels. If you are not careful, something serious will happen.
He remained silent, the uneasiness in his heart growing heavier.
......
Just then, hurried footsteps were heard outside the hall.
Wei Xun, the chief seal-holder of the Imperial Household Department, rushed in, tumbling and crawling, holding a note high above his head.
"Your Majesty! An urgent message from Fengzhou!"
Gu Jinzhi's heart skipped a beat and he snatched the note.
There were only a few words on the paper.
"Six hundred thousand bandits have surrounded Fengzhou. Your Majesty, please march south and capture them all!"
