Chapter 959: Respectfully invite the Saint to the court!
"Welcoming the Saint?"
Emperor Yu and the Queen looked at each other, and they both saw the doubts in each other's eyes. In today's world, where cultural connections are cut off and saints cannot come out, how can there be a saint who needs him to personally lead the civil and military officials to welcome him?
"Wei Ying, where did my Dayu come from? Do I need to personally lead all the civil and military officials to welcome him?"
"Your Majesty, I don't know. Why don't you let me ask?"
"No need!"
The queen glanced at Wei Ying and said softly: "Fan'er has always acted prudently, but now that he has staged such a big battle, even if he is not a saint, he deserves to be welcomed by you and me personally!"
"Well, that makes sense!"
Emperor Yu nodded, looked at Wei Ying aside, and said softly: "Go, according to the prince's wishes, go to the city gate with all the civil and military officials to greet the so-called saint!"
"According to the order!"
Wei Ying immediately conveyed Emperor Yu's decree. In fact, even if Emperor Yu did not issue the decree, the civil and military officials in the court were already on their way.
After all, His Royal Highness is the official voice of the current imperial court!
In front of Miyagi.
The gate opened with a bang, and a group of royal guards rode on tall horses, escorting a carriage and drove towards the palace gate.
Xiaoyue Demon Lord and Pingtian Sword Master looked at each other and silently watched the carriage go away.
"Have your people not arrived yet?"
"Hmph, don't you think there's no movement in the Immortal Mountain yet?"
"I will return to the mountain tomorrow!"
"What a coincidence, my troops will enter the city tonight."
"hehe!"
The two looked at each other and sneered, tilting their heads to the side in perfect agreement.
In the past month, they had simply had enough of rolling their eyes in front of the palace gate, like two clowns, being watched by people coming and going every day.
Now, people from both sides have arrived, and in a few days, they will wash away this shame!
"Look, what happened?"
"I saw that several great gentlemen were rushing towards the city gate just now. Could it be that there are foreign envoys visiting?"
"It's impossible. Even His Majesty and the Queen have come forward. Even Da Yan's envoys don't have such specifications!"
"That's weird, what happened?"
Many people also heard the movement in King Yu's city, and people followed the carriage towards the city gate.
East gate.
Emperor Yu and the Queen were dressed in costumes, and behind them were a group of civil and military officials in official robes.
The group of people stood quietly under the city gate. Ning Fan led Dian Wei to the crowd and also stood quietly.
"Prince!"
Seeing Ning Fan's figure, Emperor Yu couldn't help but ask: "Who on earth can make you behave like this?"
"Father, a saint has entered the world!"
"Saint?" Emperor Yu frowned slightly and said with some displeasure: "Since the collapse of Great Xia, there are no more saints in the world!"
"not necessarily!"
Ning Fan smiled and gradually looked towards the ancient times in the distance. He saw an old man wearing a Confucian crown, cloth clothes, holding a wooden crutch and wearing a pair of coarse cloth shoes walking towards him.
Suddenly, Emperor Yu and the Queen beside him also followed Ning Fan's gaze and looked towards the old man.
The old man is about fifty years old, with steady steps, deep eyes, and an extraordinary temperament in his movements.
A group of civil and military ministers stared directly at the old man. From the prince's face, they could tell that this old man who looked like an old farmer was the person they wanted to welcome.
Among the civil and military ranks, Zhuge Liang, Xun Yu, Changsun Wuji, Li Ru, Jia Xu and even Wang Mang and other Chinese civil and military officials all showed expressions of respect and excitement, as if they had seen their idols.
"But... Master Meng?"
"Meng Ke, a common man, pays homage to Your Majesty, the Queen!"
Meng Ke bowed his hands deeply. Emperor Yu could not tell what was so special about this old man, but he acted like a courteous corporal and stepped forward to support him: "Mr. Meng, you are so polite. I, the Great Yu, can welcome Mr. Meng only because of this." Blessings to all people.”
Seeing his father exchanging pleasantries, Ning Fan stepped forward slightly and bowed respectfully: "Meet Master Meng!"
"Student, Chen Gong, pay your respects to Ya Sheng!"
"Student, Xun Yu, pay your respects to Yasheng!"
"Student Zhuge Liang, pay your respects to Yasheng!"
"Student eldest son Sun Wuji..."
"Shang Yang, meet the Confucian Lesser Sage!"
"Student Dong Zhongshu, pay your respects to Yasheng!"
"Junior Dian Wei, pay your respects to Yasheng!"
"younger generation……"
As figures one after another came forward to salute, Emperor Yu was also surprised. He could see that all the princes and subordinates who came out respected the old man from the bottom of their hearts.
And if Zhuge Liang and Shang Yang also showed respect, there are only two possibilities!
Either this Master Meng's status is terrifyingly high in Taoyuan Village, or this Master Meng really has the power to reach heaven!
"You don't have to be polite!"
"I am joining the world this time because I was invited by His Highness the Crown Prince to come to Dayu to study and teach. I have nothing to do with government affairs!"
"Master, please!"
Ning Fan respectfully invited Meng Ke to enter the city, and the moment Master Meng entered the city gate, a dragon roar suddenly sounded in the palace, and golden dragons of luck transformed into shapes, hovering above the palace.
In an instant, the sound of dragon roars resounded throughout the world. In all the royal palaces of the Central Plains countries, there were golden dragons of luck circling, and golden beams of light rose into the sky.
At this moment, just because one person entered the world, the fortune of the entire Central Plains directly increased a lot.
Emperor Yu also looked at the strange scene in the palace and froze on the spot, his heart shocked beyond measure.
"saint!"
"He is truly a saint, and he actually caused my fortune in the Central Plains to rise. When Yu the Great got this person, it was as if he had received divine help!"
"The saint comes to worship, please ask the saint to enlighten the people's wisdom!"
"Please be taught by the saint!"
When the people around him saw this vision, they all knelt down and shouted loudly.
Emperor Yu also stopped and bowed respectfully to Meng Ke: "Sir, please teach me!"
"Sir, please teach me!"
Civil and military officials stood on both sides and bowed respectfully towards Meng Ke.
"Don't dare take it!"
Meng Ke bowed his hands to Emperor Yu, the civil and military ministers and the people around him, and then said softly: "I came to the court this time to promote Confucianism, advocate 'benevolent government', teach people to do good, teach the king to respect the people, and teach the officers to be virtuous! "
"In a few days, I will start teaching in the city. If you are willing to listen, I will sweep the couch to welcome you."
"Thank you saint!"
When a group of people entered the city, Emperor Yu also took a deep look at the traitor, with a somewhat complicated expression on his face.
The saint has truly entered the world.
The origin of this Taoyuan Village, where a saint has lived in seclusion all these years, is truly unfathomable!
Suddenly, Emperor Yu felt a deep sense of awe towards Taoyuan Village!
"Father, I am planning to change Taixue into a Confucian and Taoist school, and Master Meng will serve as the wine minister and start teaching!"
"I wonder what Father thinks?"
"Accurate!"
Emperor Yu agreed without hesitation. Now that Yu could get a saint to come to court, it was equivalent to having the entire academic world in his hands. Scholars from all over the world wanted to come to Yu to worship the saint!
This is a God-given opportunity!
