Peace Order

The founding ceremony and Emperor Qin’s wedding are progressing simultaneously.

According to Emperor Qin’s request, his wedding should only take place after the founding ceremony. Both events are extremely important, but the officials, Emperor Qin, and even the Long Wind Tower Master all agree that nothing carries more weight than the founding ceremony.

The affairs of the state lie in rituals and warfare.

Now that weapons are settled and the Four Seas are at peace, the founding ceremony declares peace. It is both a reassurance and pacification to the people and a consolation to the departed, truly there is nothing more important than this.

Emperor Qin also insists that the wedding should only start after this event.

As an official of the Ministry of Rites, Nan Hanwen asked His Majesty how many to hold.

The invincible Emperor Qin huffed for a while.

Nan Hanwen understood and said, "I understand."

Emperor Qin breathed a sigh of relief, his face showing a look of appreciation.

Mr. Nan Hanwen asked meticulously:

"Will Your Majesty hold them together or one at a time?"

Emperor Qin was stunned.

Nan Hanwen, with a hint of teasing, said:

"Is Your Majesty planning to save money this time?"

Emperor Qin was silent for a long time, then said, "I have accomplished achievements, and the gold and silver inside the royal families of Chen Country and Ying Country are plenty, but ultimately, the beauty’s grace is heavy, long-awaited..."

The gray-haired Emperor Qin chuckled lightly and said, "This time, I will not be frugal."

"Let Emperor Ying and Emperor Chen, let Tuyuhun, Dangxiang, let the Western Regions’ Thirty-Six Kingdoms, the treasures of the kings of the Eighteen Tribes of Grassland, come to celebrate my wedding."

This sentence was plain, but the accomplishments are already evident.

The emperor’s pressure and calmness were fully displayed, the merits of the ages left a sense of reverie in people’s hearts.

Nan Hanwen was stunned, then solemnly nodded:

"Yes."

However, Emperor Qin immediately added, "But it must not be extravagant and wasteful, nor indulging in luxury."

This sentence ultimately gave Nan Hanwen a feeling of inexplicable closeness and familiarity, as the old man held back a smile and walked out, laughing heartily.

This first emperor in three generations, still has the same disposition as before.

Nan Hanwen laughed in the cold winter wind until tears came out.

He wiped away his old tears.

It’s great, the old friend has achieved supreme feats, becoming a peerless emperor!

So wonderful.

Even with unrivaled achievements of the present era, the reputation resounds through the ages.

As an emperor, he is still the old friend.

This sentence, these small matters, stirred a subtle touch in Nan Hanwen’s heart, indescribable, just thinking that the emperor is just an identity.

He was amazed, delighted, and suddenly his steps paused.

Hmm??

Wait???

Nan Hanwen’s eyes widened.

The old man suddenly understood why General Nangong Wumeng started frequently going out to look for things.

He found it both amusing and annoying.

He just got busy.

However, when he told the old Mr. Siming, old Mr. Siming planned to leave immediately.

These two events, he would not participate in the founding ceremony, and he would not come to drink at the wedding either. Nan Hanwen had a good relationship with old Mr. Siming and had not expected that after telling him about the preparations for Emperor Qin’s wedding, old Mr. Siming would want to leave so early.

At that time, old Mr. Siming only smiled faintly and said, "Yin and Yang complement each other, where there is Yin, there is Yang. Having seen the world at peace, and having witnessed Li Guanyi’s wedding, I fear I would be reluctant to leave and feel irresolute staying, so it’s better to leave early."

"After the founding ceremony, Emperor Qin’s wedding will probably be known throughout the world."

"Then I will toast from afar."

Nan Hanwen was busy, but saw the Long Wind Tower Master coming, and he proactively saluted, seeing the Long Wind Tower Master with a wooden hairpin in his hair, his robe sleeves also stained with the scarlet Qilin Cloud Pattern, even someone like Nan Hanwen had a much gentler expression on his face.

The silk tailoring from Jiangnan is indeed the best in the world.

"Greetings..."

Mr. Nan Hanwen almost blurted out ’Madam’.

Wearing the scarlet Qilin Pattern clothes, all that’s left is the announcement to the world, but due to the influence of the late Qu Hanxiu, Mr. Nan Hanwen swallowed the address ’Madam’ that almost reached his throat.

Etiquette cannot be abandoned, names must not be messed.

Just said, "Master."

Xue Shuangtao lightly bowed and said, "Sir, where is Guan Yi?"

Nan Hanwen was stunned and said, "His Majesty should be paying respects to old friends, Master, is there something important you need from His Majesty?"

Xue Shuangtao said, "Mr. Po Jun wants to bid farewell!"

Nan Hanwen was taken aback, stunned.

No, old Mr. Siming.

Now apart from Emperor Qin’s wedding and the founding ceremony, there is still one more important thing!

"Your Majesty, where are you!!!"

......

Li Guanyi slowly opened his eyes.

He has crossed over these Nine Cauldrons, moving forward, treading on those white jade steps, with each step taken, a Nine Tripods’ Roar echoes, until the entire Nine Provinces Tripod is filled with Qi Fortune, at the highest point of this Nine Provinces Tripod, there is only a white jade seat.

Li Guanyi’s fingers touched the white jade seat, the touch cold, and then turned around, sat down slowly, gazing down from above, there’s an inherent demeanor of disdain and detachment, yet it clearly reveals loneliness and solitude. The highest place of the Nine Provinces Tripod is nothing but a white jade seat.

The Buddhists say pointing a finger at the moon, the Taoists say my heart is the heart of heaven.

Confucians say it is my heavenly mandate.

This white jade seat is the final resting place of this body’s storms and glories.

But the path to reach this highest point, sweeping across the world, forging the Nine Cauldrons.

That is the [Nine Provinces Unification].

You have already received this heavenly mandate, why do you need external things to manifest it.

The so-called conclusion, this body’s feats have already been achieved, no need for further external search.
