I have a role in the heavens

"He is definitely a master at the ninth level. I only made two moves in his hands, and even the sword in my hand was taken away by him. I was like a child, unable to fight back in his hands. If I can't get rid of the shadow of failure he casts on me now, I may never make progress in this life!" Seeing the second prince's doubts, Xie Bi'an cheered up and used his tragic failure experience as a lesson to remind Li Chengze , hoping to attract his attention.

"I understand. As for the sword, if I let people collect it, I will definitely find a better sword for you and let you go and retrieve it!" The second prince nodded solemnly, and Xie Bian acted as his personal assistant. He was very aware of the strength of the guards. It was rare for him to encounter an opponent, but he was defeated miserably in two moves at the hands of Guo Baokun, which forced him to start paying attention to Guo Baokun's strength. Li Chengze saw that Xie Bian's face was dejected, and he was actually mentally shocked. He quickly began to comfort Xie Bian, hoping to rekindle his fighting spirit.

"Your Highness, there is no need to worry about me. This setback cannot defeat me. I have been through hundreds of battles since I started learning martial arts at the age of six. Naturally, I have won and lost, but this time my failure was more complete. I also ask Your Highness to give me some time. I need to practice in seclusion to erase the shadow given by Guo Baokun, otherwise it may cause my realm to decline and fall to the eighth level." Xie Bi'an asked for leave from the second prince Li Chengze, hoping that he could erase it through seclusion. The shadow of my own inner failure.

"You can rest assured that you will be in retreat. During this period, I will be more careful. I will wait for you to finish your retreat and make further progress!" The second prince agreed to Xie Bian's request without any hesitation. Xie Bian was the only one around him. As a ninth-grade master, he naturally could not tolerate any mistakes and sent his heartfelt blessings.

"Besides, it looks like I'm going to start completing the penalty copy tonight!" The second prince smiled mockingly and raised his originally red and swollen palms that had now turned purple to indicate that he also needed to bow his head in front of Guo Baokun. After all, the number of words in the Analects of Confucius is not that small, and I would have to copy it overnight.

"My subordinates are incompetent!" Xie Bi'an felt a little apologetic. The so-called master humiliated his ministers to death, but his own abilities were not good enough and he could not find a way for the second prince.

The master and the servant looked at each other and smiled bitterly. Seeing each other's embarrassment, they felt the same way. They were both degenerate people in the world. They could only deal with their own moods and laugh at themselves to comfort each other.

"Your Highness, the latest news is that someone saw Xie Bi'an returning to the second prince's house with a lonely expression!" The staff rushed into the East Palace and reported the latest news about the second prince and Guo Baokun to Prince Li Chengqian.

"Really!!!" The prince was overjoyed. Compared to Guo Baokun's humiliation, he actually hated the second prince Li Chengze more. After all, to be honest, Guo Baokun did not have any conflict of interest with him, and the second prince was his biggest Enemies, the two have the most direct conflict of interest. In the struggle for the throne, no prince can survive after being deposed. Therefore, compared to the success of the second prince's revenge on Guo Baokun, he would rather hear the consequences of the failure of the second prince. information.

"This brother of Gu is still too arrogant. It seems that he didn't take his father's words to heart at all. I will find him a copy of Ginseng tomorrow so that he can improve his memory!" The prince beamed with joy. This was the case between the two of them. Since the fight, it was the first time that the second prince Li Chengze suffered such a defeat. The prince decided to pursue the victory and beat up the drowned dog.

"Your Highness, it's not easy for Guo Baokun to take advantage of the second prince. You must know that Xie Bi'an is a ninth-grade swordsman with extraordinary strength, and yet he was defeated miserably!" Although the staff was happy that they could not get away with the second prince, But I still remind the prince to pay more attention to Guo Baokun.

"It seems that there are crouching tigers and hidden dragons in the Mansion of the Minister of Rites. I didn't expect that the Guo Mansion actually has masters above the ninth grade. If Xie Bian hadn't hit his head and broke his blood, we would have been deceived by the strength of the Guo Mansion. It seems that we will have to Change your attitude towards Guo Mansion and try to win over Guo Youzhi and Guo Baokun." The prince now no longer cared about the humiliation he suffered at the hands of Guo Baokun today, but still put interests first and began to give instructions to his staff.

"Here!" Seeing such a mature prince, the staff nodded happily. Only those who are not affected by their own emotions, likes and dislikes can achieve great things. It is a blessing for the prince to have such a broad mind.

"It seems that I have to copy the Analects of Confucius, otherwise I won't be able to do the job, so please step back!" The prince also raised his left hand and looked at the swollen left hand. The difference was that the prince actually laughed.

"Your Majesty, the prince has no reaction and has no revenge on Mr. Xiao Guo." Eunuch Hou reported the information he had obtained to Emperor Qing in a low voice.

"It seems that the prince still listens to my father's words!" Emperor Qing nodded with satisfaction, feeling a little relieved and satisfied with the prince's performance.

"Where is Chengze?" Emperor Qing continued to ask about the second prince's actions.

"The second prince ordered Xie Bian to go to the Guo Mansion to test it out, hoping to teach Master Xiao Guo a lesson." Eunuch Hou replied in a low voice. He glanced at Emperor Qing's discolored face, bent his waist deeper, and lowered his head deeply.

"Huh! You are arrogant, you have no children, and you have no father in your heart!" Emperor Qing repeatedly accused Li Chengze, with anger on his face, and swept all the memorials on the table to the ground with his hands.

"This slave deserves to die!" Eunuch Hou knelt down quickly, feeling extremely frightened in his heart.

"It is my decree that the prince has a kind heart and a pure nature, and orders him to go to the Ancestral Temple on my behalf to worship my ancestors!" Emperor Qing said to Eunuch Hou who was kneeling on the ground.

"Here!" Eunuch Hou stood up and walked slowly back to announce the decree.

Time is always rushing. In the blink of an eye, two seasons rotate around, and it is spring when the grass grows and the orioles fly. In the past two years, a series of things happened, but they are nothing to Guo Baokun. The only thing that has an impact on him is That is, he is already twenty and has been crowned.

The crown ceremony is a coming-of-age ceremony for the Chinese clan. Generally speaking, if a man has twenty lines of crown ceremony, it means that the man has reached adulthood and can participate in various activities and get married.

Guo Baokun stretched his body. He had just finished attending the Great Court Meeting. The officials of the Three Kingdoms Period began to walk towards their respective yamen. Guo Baokun decided to skip a class. After all, such a good spring time cannot be wasted indoors. In the past two years, Guo Baokun has been staying here In the Hanlin Academy, although the official position is still the bachelor's degree, but there is also an additional official position, the imperial study room walker, and he has become a fourth-rank official, which can be said to be a high-ranking official.

The imperial study room is reserved for those with both talents and talents in the Imperial Academy. As close ministers of the emperor, they can influence the emperor's decision-making to a certain extent. They can be said to be candidates for the future prime minister. It is an official position that young civil servants dream of. Even the crown prince and other princes must be careful about who they treat seriously.
