Chapter 392 Holy Emperor
Jiang Qian, who was sitting in the upper side chair, looked calm, but there was a hint of worry in the depths of her eyes.
The king said he would be back soon, but this little while seemed a bit too long. What on earth had he been doing?
But now that all the ministers are here, how can she lose her composure?
So he smiled and said, "Your Majesty is very busy with affairs every day. Now he is busy with some trivial matters, which has delayed his time. My lords, please don't worry. Your Majesty should be back soon."
When Shang Rong heard this, he put down his teacup and was about to mutter a few words, but he didn't wait for him to speak.
Wang Youzhi rushed into the Yangxin Palace in small, quick steps, and shouted, "His Majesty has ordered all ministers to convene in the Wanshou Palace!"
When the ministers heard this, they were immediately cheered up.
Your Majesty is finally here!
Therefore, all the ministers hurriedly stood up and prepared to go to the Wanshou Hall.
Jiang Qian also let out a long sigh, then stood up with a smile and went back to the harem. Since the emperor was there, there was no need for her to force herself to save the situation.
Li Qing returned to the royal city and originally planned to ask Wang Youzhi to send all the ministers back directly. After all, the edict of the Three Emperors had already been defeated, so there was no need to be surprised.
But after thinking about it, they decided to let them come, otherwise they might not be able to sleep well that night.
In the Wanshou Hall, the ministers filed in and quickly took their seats.
Following the announcement of His Majesty's arrival, Li Qing walked out with a calm expression and the gait of a dragon and a tiger.
Li Qing today is no different from before.
However, on the left hip of his Human Emperor's crown, there was a purple-gold sword emitting a hazy light!
For a moment, the eyes of all the ministers were attracted by this sword.
Especially ministers like Bigan, Shang Rong, You Ping, Shen Gongbao, etc., they looked at the sword with astonishment, their eyes full of surprise.
Li Qing stepped onto the throne and said calmly, "My dear ministers, it's already late at night. Why have you all come to the royal city to pay your respects to me? Is it just because of Xiqi's little trick? You are too unstable."
Upon hearing this, the ministers could only bow and say, "Your Majesty, we are concerned about you. Please forgive me for making you laugh."
Li Qing smiled and said, "Okay, since there's nothing else to do, let's adjourn the court and get some rest."
"Your Majesty, this sword you carry is the Xuanyuan Holy Sword?"
But Shang Rong took a step forward, looked at the sword on Li Qing's waist, and asked with surprise in his eyes.
"Hmm, Shang Xiang actually saw through it? Well, since he saw through it, I won't hide it from you all."
When Li Qing heard this, a look of helplessness appeared on his face.
Then he slowly stood up and took off the Xuanyuan Sword from his waist. He raised his hand and with a clang, the sword was unsheathed!
In an instant, golden light shone everywhere, sword energy soared into the sky, and the entire Wanshou Hall was surrounded by a murderous aura.
Li Qing held the Xuanyuan Sword, took a look at it, and danced with it. Then he looked at it carefully and said calmly: "This sword is the Xuanyuan Holy Sword!"
"It is indeed the Xuanyuan Holy Sword!"
"Is this the legendary Xuanyuan Holy Sword!?"
"Where did Your Majesty get this holy sword?"
"Good fortune has been bestowed upon me! Good fortune has been bestowed upon me! Your Majesty has actually obtained this holy sword! The fortune of our Great Shang is as vast as the sea, and will endure for eternity!"
Following Li Qing's words, the entire court suddenly became noisy!
More than a hundred ministers looked at the Xuanyuan Sword in Li Qing's hand with excitement on their faces, their eyes full of excitement!
This is the Xuanyuan Sword!
It represents the righteous path of the human race!
Now that it has been obtained by His Majesty, doesn't that mean that His Majesty represents the righteous path of the human race! ?
That traitor from Xiqi really has no moral integrity at all!
"Your Majesty, where did you get this Xuanyuan Sword?"
Shang Rong, however, was not overwhelmed by joy. He looked at Li Qing, suppressed the joy in his heart, and asked hurriedly.
Li Qing flipped his hand, sheathed the sword, and hung it again at his waist. He then looked at Shang Rong and asked, "What's the matter? Are you worried that this Xuanyuan Sword may have come from an illegal source?"
Li Qing found Shang Rong's cautious look amusing and waved his hand, saying, "Don't worry. The reason I was delayed for most of the hour earlier was because of this Xuanyuan Sword."
Li Qing sat back down, leaning his body with a majestic posture, and said with a smile, "Thinking about that thief from Xiqi, he actually forged the edict of the Three Saints Emperors in an attempt to depose me. Unfortunately, they miscalculated. When the Three Saints Emperors heard about this, they were naturally furious and came in person. Well, you all know what happened next. As for me, as the contemporary Human Emperor, I naturally had to meet with the Ancient Saint Emperor when he arrived. Well, after a deep conversation and discussion, the Three Saints Emperors saw that I was extremely wise and unique, a saintly monarch rarely seen since the creation of the world. In addition, I was extremely handsome and extraordinary, and my demeanor alone impressed the Three Saints Emperors. Therefore, the Three Saints Emperors willingly entrusted this Divine Land to me. At the same time, this Xuanyuan Sword was given to me by Emperor Xuanyuan as a proof."
Li Qing said this without blushing or feeling nervous, as if it were true.
Shang Rong, Bigan, Shen Gongbao, and even all the ministers were stunned.
They looked at Li Qing, and it was unclear whether their eyes showed belief or disbelief. In short, they were extremely surprised.
Especially Shen Gongbao, his eyes were wide open, looking at Li Qingquan in disbelief.
How come I, the king, can tell lies even more fluently than I do?
Others may not be very clear about it, but how could he not understand it?
The Three Holy Emperors, they can’t leave Huoyun Palace!
Since I can't leave Huoyun Palace, how can I come to Chaoge?
Shen Gongbao could understand the phantom scene, thinking it might be some means used by the Three Emperors to convey it, but if they said that they came in person, Shen Gongbao would never believe it even if he died.
No matter how great your abilities are, if you are suppressed and imprisoned by Daozu Hongjun, how can you break free? Are you dreaming?
So, how could the Three Emperors run from Huoyun Palace to Chaoge and give you the Xuanyuan Sword?
But this Xuanyuan Sword is indeed the real thing!
It is impossible to imitate something!
The power of merit contained in it is impossible to imitate.
Therefore, Shen Gongbao was also puzzled. How did the king get this Xuanyuan Sword? Could it be that the Three Holy Emperors really sent it?
The other ministers were stunned for a moment before suddenly kneeling down and shouting, "Your Majesty has inherited the aspirations, virtues, kindness, and wishes of the ancient Human Emperor and has obtained the Holy Sword of the Human Race. We congratulate Your Majesty! You shall be crowned the Holy Emperor!"
Li Qing burst into laughter and said, "I am very pleased that you, the nobles, have such thoughts. Everyone, please stand up!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
The ministers cheered and then stood up, their eyes filled with respect and enthusiasm.
The Holy Emperor and the Human Emperor seem to have no difference, but in reality, there is! And it’s huge!
Since the end of the abdication system and the beginning of the hereditary system, there are no more Holy Emperors in the world, only Human Emperors.
How can bloodline inheritance win the hearts of the people? Therefore, he can only be called the Human Emperor.
And the one who won the hearts of hundreds of millions of people in ancient times and was pushed by hundreds of millions of people to ascend to the position of the patriarch of the human race is called the Holy Emperor!
