Chapter 526: Chapter 347: Great Li and Two Martial Artists_3

Yunniang sighed softly and paused.

Zhao Rong raised an eyebrow.

Yunniang continued, "So, a few days later, the Crown Prince ascended the throne as expected, and the chaos was over. However, I heard that on the eve of the Crown Prince’s ascension, the Great General left the Capital unexpectedly and did not attend the grand ceremony."

"Now, Empress Dugu of the Great Li, the current Empress Dowager, is listening to state affairs from behind the curtain. The virtuous king has also been appointed as the Regent King, and these two distinguished individuals are together assisting with the state affairs."

Zhao Rong nodded without a word.

Yunniang seemed to think of something and cautiously said, "Master, Mr. Zhao, have you come to Great Li to perform the Sealing and Sacrifice Ceremony for our Emperor Li?"

Gu Yiwu nodded, "Exactly."

Yunniang pondered, "Before the former Emperor passed away, he also planned to perform the Sealing and Sacrifice Ceremony, which was the top priority of the court at that time. The people of Great Li were also looking forward to the former Emperor’s ceremony. It’s a pity... Although the new Emperor is young, it seems he will continue the ceremony, which is the expected course to fulfill the former Emperor’s wishes and bless Great Li. Although delayed, it has finally come, and here’s hoping for continued peace."

Is it really all the same?

Was the significance of holding the Sealing and Sacrifice Ceremony by Emperor Li’s Grand Ancestor and the current new Emperor truly the same?

Zhao Rong nodded his head and then shook his head.

Originally, Grand Ancestor of Emperor Li had invited the Confucian Scholar from Linlu Academy to preside over the ceremony to solidly establish his imperial authority and prepare for the great and noble future of Great Li.

As for the current new Emperor’s ceremony...

There seemed to be similarities, only the situations of these two Emperors of Great Li were indeed completely different.

And the present Great Li... was also different.

Zhao Rong squinted his eyes.

Initially, Meng Xuezhen descended the mountain, although it was unknown for what he was going out, he had presumably agreed to perform the Sealing and Sacrifice Ceremony for Grand Ancestor of Emperor Li.

And a month ago, Grand Ancestor of Emperor Li had passed away, a matter that was supposed to be over since the ceremony was prepared for a wise and enlightened ruler, known to all.

But now it seemed, probably that the new Emperor... No, he was too young, unless precocious, otherwise he really did not understand.

So, it should be someone behind him, hmm, probably his mother, the Empress Dowager, the highest authority in today’s Li Dynasty, who must have continued to send people to Linlu Academy seeking Meng Zhengjun, requesting her to continue the ceremony for the Imperial Family of Great Li.

And perhaps because Meng Zhengjun had already agreed to the Imperial Family of Great Li, she consented, but for some reason, did not manage it personally, and even turned this matter into an assessment item for their Mochi students...

Zhao Rong bowed his head, staying quiet without speaking, occasionally frowning slightly.

At this moment, Yunniang had finished telling what she knew, and seeing the somewhat peculiar Mr. Zhao pondering, Yunniang and Gu Yiwu exchanged glances.

The latter shook his head.

Yunniang bowed her head and hands, quiet and submissive.

Gu Yiwu, also tacitly, did not disturb Zhao Rong.

He turned his head to stare at the camp for a while, standing patiently.

Zhao Rong suddenly stretched out his hand from his sleeve and took out the Mountain And River Map.

He flipped through it, looking at Great Li’s terrain, and at one moment, his finger paused.

A fingertip pointed at a place.

"Ziyu, what’s wrong?" Gu Yiwu asked curiously, then added,

"Right, do you still have questions for Yunniang? If not, let’s hurry on our way. We’ve rested for quite a while, and you said before, we should head to the Capital of Great Li soon."

Zhao Rong was looking around, seemingly observing something.

Hearing this, he turned his head to look at Gu Yiwu and slowly shook his head.

"Okay, let’s continue on our way, but we should find a place to rest along the way, yes, right here."

He pointed at the Mountain And River Map.

Gu Yiwu leaned in to look, curiously asking, "Xingzi Town? That’s not on the fastest route you previously chose, slightly deviating from it. Ziyu, are we not in a hurry anymore? Going to this Xingzi Town, is there something important?"

Zhao Rong smiled and shook his head. "Let’s not rush; we can play for a few more days before leaving."

Gu Yiwu scratched his head, "Play? How many days will we play?"

Zhao Rong thought for a moment, seriously saying, "I don’t know."

Gu Yiwu: "..."

Zhao Rong turned his head to look at the southern Fenglin, lightly laughing.

"But I know, we better not be the most hurried one."
