The water cloud secret technique turned into dozens of agile clouds, which flew into the hall with ten golden carps that shook their heads and tails and whose scales kept opening and closing. The carps opened and closed their mouths, constantly releasing wisps of water vapor, and their eyes sparkled, looking quite spiritual.
In the rising water mist, these big carps twisted their bodies, and there was a faint appearance of flying dragons.
Inside the hall, the managers of the thirty-two powerful families of Dajin could not help but stand up, looking at the ten wonderful creatures in the water and clouds with surprising eyes.
How many years does it take for a carp this big to grow to this size?
Carp is a lucky thing, and this big carp is a great sign of good fortune. The current emperor of Jin is obsessed with immortality, and has fallen into a frenzy in his pursuit of all kinds of auspicious and rare things. If these ten big carps can be presented to the current emperor, how much benefit will it bring?
Soon, Li Zheng, Zhao Xing and others looked at Zhou Liuyun and shook their heads slightly at the same time.
This is the Dragon Gate Banquet, and these carps are the auspicious objects that Ling Yue spent a lot of money to present to Zhou Liuyun. It is to celebrate Zhou Liuyun's acceptance of so many disciples and to celebrate everyone being bound together into a community of interests.
These carp can only be used at the Longmen Banquet, and can only be used today, at this time, at this moment, and here.
"Such an auspicious thing, great!" Li Zheng suddenly clapped his hands and laughed: "What a great Dragon Gate Banquet, the carp jumped over the Dragon Gate, transformed into a mortal body, flew on the clouds and mist above the nine heavens, and became a dragon. It's a good omen, a good omen. The scholar's plan will surely succeed!"
Li Zheng's words made Zhou Liuyun nod and smile repeatedly, and Zhao Xing and others also hurriedly spoke, saying a series of auspicious words. Whether it was Zhou Liuyun, Xun Yu, the many bachelors and doctors of the Jishan Academy, many disciples, and representatives of the major families present, all smiled happily, and their eyes narrowed.
Ling Yue held his head high and chest puffed out, looking at the ten golden-scaled carps with a proud smile.
Ling Yue had spent a huge amount of money to get these ten big carps. The gold was fine, it wouldn't hurt the Ling family. But the death of Ling Fu and four hundred elite private soldiers really made his father Ling Lu heartbroken.
But what is all that cost compared to today’s gains?
Zhou Liuyun was able to gain respect in front of so many prominent figures in the three states by using these ten golden-scaled carps. In the mind of Zhou Liuyun's master, the status and position of Ling Yue and his Ling family must be far superior to those of his fellow disciples.
Ling Yue glanced at his fellow brothers who came from the wealthy families of Dajin and couldn't help but smile and nod.
Sooner or later, his Ling family will grow from a mere wealthy family in Qizhou to a real wealthy family in Dajin. He, Ling Yue, will also become famous throughout the world one day, and he will hold great power and enjoy wealth and glory.
Ling Yue couldn't help but look at Chu Jie deeply.
He recalled Chu Jie's scolding and insults to his family. Young Master Chu, hehe!
Chu Jie played with his wine glass, looking at the people in the hall who were cheering and jumping for joy with a gloomy expression. The wealthy families in the three states had initially formed a group of interests because their children had become Zhou Liuyun's disciples.
Ten golden-scaled carps, ten such huge and majestic golden-scaled carps, have become a kind of "totem", a kind of "belief" invisibly. Through the pretext of the Longmen Banquet, they have purified and sublimated the ambitions of everyone.
They were originally just a loose group and they had not yet formed a real common consciousness.
Because of these ten damn carps, they are likely to become "united" and "cooperative" in the shortest possible time, condensing into a solid and powerful force that the Chu family cannot, cannot, and dare not confront head-on.
"Damn it!" Chu Jie tightened his grip, and the wine glass shattered silently, with bits of debris constantly leaking out from between his fingers.
Sima Zhuifeng looked at the ten golden-scaled carps with a gloomy face. Like Chu Jie, he also felt the threat posed by these ten big carps.
Zhou Liuyun clearly came with a chariot and horse to snatch his position as governor of Yizhou. By recruiting disciples, Zhou Liuyun gathered most of the powerful families in the three states and united them into one.
This force is enough to threaten Sima Zhuifeng's position as prefect.
Today, Zhou Liuyun suddenly took out ten huge golden carps to hold the Dragon Gate Banquet. Stimulated by the auspicious and lucky halos brought by these extraordinary carps, it is possible that some people in the big families that have colluded with Zhou Liuyun will do something extreme.
Zhu Jie and Mo Yu looked at the people in the hall whose faces were flushed and extremely excited. One of them smiled and nodded repeatedly, while the other had a gloomy face and kept shaking his head.
Zhu Jie smiled happily and said, "Let's make a fuss, make a fuss! Ten big golden carps like these, hey, Zhou Liyun is indeed destined to be the one? Hee, make a fuss, make a fuss, make a fuss quickly, it would be best if someone is brave enough to go and assassinate Sima Zhuifeng tonight!"
After laughing a few times, Zhu Jie narrowed his eyes and murmured in a low voice: "Zhou Liuyun and these powerful families have joined forces to open up a new state. This deal is worth making! With these powerful families charging in the front, we should get involved and get a piece of the fat meat!"
Mo Yu cursed inwardly with a gloomy face: "Beat the gongs and drums, beat the gongs and drums every day, there is no peace! If you open a new state, people will die! This will cause a big chaos! Those remnants of the 100,000 wilderness, those barbarians, are they easy to provoke? Are they easy to provoke? Bastards, can't you just live a peaceful life?"
All the doors and windows around the main hall on the first floor of the Meixue Spirit Building were removed, letting in light from all sides. Ten golden carps were suspended in the air above the main hall. The academy disciples on the square around the main hall, as well as the leaders of the small and medium-sized families in the three states, all came over, staring at the ten golden carps with their mouths wide open.
"Master Zhou is indeed very lucky. How could an ordinary person possibly get such a big golden carp?"
"It must be good to follow Master Zhou. Such an auspicious thing can be seen today. It can be seen that Master Zhou is indeed a man of good fortune and virtue. Wow, Master Zhou has only been back in Qizhou for a few days, and he can actually get ten big golden carps like this!"
"What a blessing, what good luck! Master Zhou is indeed extraordinary. Hehe, look at the face of Governor Sima, he looks so unhappy!"
"As for this 'Trojan Horse Governor', he has been in office in Qizhou for several years. Look at what he has done in these years? He spends the whole day reciting poems, drinking and appreciating flowers. He is truly a useless dandy from the capital."
"Let him go, and let Master Zhou be our governor of Qizhou."
"Let Master Zhou be the governor of our Yizhou, and open a new state outside of Yizhou! Hey, when the time comes, we will have the opportunity to take possession of the mineral veins, mountains, forests, fertile fields, etc. in the newly opened state capital!"
"That's right, that's right. By then, maybe there will be a 'Chu' among us!" Mobile phone users please visit m.read for a better reading experience.
