Chapter 24 I'm Here
Although not everyone is a person with such a dark mentality, Yu Xiaotian is definitely one of the most popular people in today's Seal Festival.
There are those who mock them, those who sympathize with them, those who lament, and those who do not deserve it.
The most exciting part of this is of course the civil officials that Prime Minister Pan is good at. They have been bullied by Prince Yu over the years. Now they finally have the opportunity to see the fun of the Prince's Mansion, and they are ready to pick their eyes out and put them in the altar.
These civil officials gathered together in groups of three or five, discussing excitedly. The atmosphere was so warm and festive that they were in a mood that was no less exciting than when they married their wife.
"When it comes to this year's seal ceremony, the most interesting one is our Prime Minister Pan Bao. It is said that he is a talent at the level of the Bronze Seal Commander. When the starlight is triggered, I don't know what a grand occasion it will be."
One of them said professionally that during the seal sacrifice process, people of different talents can attract different stars.
The higher the talent, the more starlight it can attract. Generally, as long as the starlight of a star in the sky falls onto oneself, this person can basically successfully sacrifice the seal.
A person with great talent is said to be able to attract two or even three stars of light to himself at the same time, and such a person's future achievements will be limitless.
It is said that when the prince of the Prince of the Guardian Mansion participated in the seal ceremony, he suddenly triggered more than a dozen star lights, and the starlight directly formed a huge column of light and shone on the prince.
The grand occasion at that time is unforgettable for anyone who sees it. The prince has become the most talented person in the past thousand years. Originally, the whole country of Wu still hoped that this peerless genius would lead the Prince's Mansion to lead the Wu Kingdom to create a prosperous era, but unfortunately now it is missing.
Not only did he disappear, but he suddenly appeared a useless son who could not practice at all, which was so sad. Of course, there were also some people waiting to see Yu Xiaotian make a fool of himself and the jokes of the prince's mansion.
After hearing this man say it, he immediately attracted a lot of echoes: "Not bad, our Prime Minister Pan's son is definitely the most talented genius in Wu Kingdom."
"Yes, yes, it's really admirable to say that Prime Minister Pan is definitely a role model for all officials. Not only does he share the national affairs for His Majesty, but he also trained his son to become a peerless genius."
After a round of flattery, he only called Prime Minister Pan the first person in ancient and modern times.
After the flattery was almost done, someone said, "I want to say that although Mr. Pan is a genius, the one who is most eye-catching tonight should be the young master. This waste sacrifice seal..."
Speaking of this, I seemed to be afraid of looking around and no longer continuing, but the gloating expression on my face made everyone understand.
Others also woke up one after another: "Yes, yes, yes, he must be the first tonight who has a glimpse of it. Hahaha, what a young master of the prince's mansion, he was also named the prince's prince's prince's lieutenant. Even the handsome golden branches and jade leaves of the seventh princess are given to him, so he deserves to be unlucky."
"Brother, be careful..."
Hearing that he was so blunt, the others hurriedly dissuaded, and looked around while persuading.
"What are you afraid of? Don't you talk? If he keeps hiding there to enjoy his happiness, we will be jealous and have no choice but to do so. But he doesn't know what kind of wind he actually came out to be humiliated. Then we can't blame us."
Seeing that he was so excited that he had no intention of stopping his mouth, the other person reached out to cover his mouth in a hurry, then pointed at the other side, following his eyes, everyone saw the useless young master they were discussing.
Wearing a long moon-white gown and a free-standing folding fan, we walked alone calmly.
Wherever you pass by, people can't help but say, as if they are intimidated by his momentum or be fascinated by his style.
Is he really that legendary waste?
Yu Xiaotian walked out of the square, and wherever he passed, people looked at each other, while he walked with a smile, without any fear or anger.
It seems that it is not about attending the seal ceremony that determines fate, but rather about going to a garden party. The relaxed and comfortable face makes the people in the entire square relax.
How could he be so relaxed?
Could it be that he is already very sure?
Everyone was puzzled by Yu Xiaotian in this state, especially those who wanted to see him look ugly, and now they were even more depressed. However, this could not stop these people from thinking and ridicule.
I'm afraid it's a broken can, and it's true that a waste has no hope at all, so naturally there is nothing to worry about.
Soon, these people found the most reasonable explanation for Yu Xiaotian's ease. In this way, they could happily wait and watch the joke of this waste. Of course, they should not forget to cheer for their master Pan Bao.
Yu Xiaotian didn't care at all about the discussion or slanting eyes of these people. There was not much time left before the ceremony began, so he walked directly to the entrance of the altar.
The crowded crowds around him saw him coming and gave in. Most of the people gathered here were from the major families of the royal capital, so they naturally knew the young master of the prince's mansion.
Yu Xiaotian walked slowly through the road where the crowd flashed out. When he reached the entrance, his calm face finally changed color.
Why are they here?
There were several people waiting to enter the altar at the entrance, among which was also the most anticipated genius Pan Bao this year. Of course, Yu Xiaotian was definitely not surprised because of him.
What surprised him was the two teenagers waiting to enter the venue on the other side of Pan Bao.
One of these two men looked like a gentle scholar, and the other was a fat man with a round face. When they saw him, they immediately walked towards him.
"Boss, you're here."
The round-faced fat man greeted him first, and the other elegant scholar also looked happy, but he was obviously much more reserved than the fat man. He called out "Boss" and stood there with a smile and stopped talking.
Yu Xiaotian also showed joy on his face. He asked happily: "You are here to cheer for me, thank you."
When the fat man with round face heard this, he immediately retorted unhappily: "Come on, cheering, it's not. We are also here to participate in the seal ceremony."
"What? You are here to participate in the seal ceremony? You..." Yu Xiaotian was speechless when he heard this, thinking that what were his two brothers doing?
The little fat man said with confidence: "My second and I are both sixteen years old this year, why can't we come to participate?"
This little fat man is like the elegant scholar and Yu Xiaotian. He is indeed sixteen years old, and the three of them are brothers who have been together since childhood.
The youngest of the three brothers is the fat man. His name is Wang Xuanxuan. He is the son of Wang Jing, the richest Shang of Wu Kingdom. The second is the elegant scholar named Xu Rufeng, who is the son of the Minister of Revenue. Yu Xiaotian was born a few days ago and ranked first.
Wang Xuanxuan and Xu Rufeng are both qualified to participate in the seal ceremony on age and identity. But they really have no reason to participate.
The reason why they say this is because, like Yu Xiaotian, these two people are just wasteful people who have no talent for cultivation. Perhaps because of the same illness, the three of them have always had a good relationship since they met each other. After getting along for the years, they have become closer than their own brothers.
The three of them also have a resounding name in the capital, called the Three Wastes of the Wangdu.
Moreover, they were not as determined to become stronger like Yu Xiaotian. They all had their own pursuits. Xu Rufeng liked to play with literature, while Wang Xuanxuan, just liked strange and strange miscellaneous studies, especially medicine.
It is really hard to understand that two such people suddenly came to participate in the seal ceremony at the cost of being ridiculed by countless people today.
Everyone around him felt confused and surprised. He said that he was just full.
However, Yu Xiaotian had already understood that the two brothers did this for themselves! They were afraid that they would be humiliated by themselves, so they came to accompany them.
They are going to be humiliated with me!
In order to share the pressure on me, they stood up and became the target of ridicule of everyone.
This friendship really touched him. Looking at the determined eyes of the two people on the opposite side, Yu Xiaotian felt a sense of emotion.
It’s my blessing to have such brothers!
Suppressing the touch in his heart, Yu Xiaotian said straightforwardly: "Good brother, I've received my wish, but there's no need to do so. Don't you believe me, boss? I promise to return in triumph. Just cheer me outside."
Hearing his disagreement, the little fat man Wang Xuanxuan suddenly became anxious, "Boss, it's not that we don't believe you. We all know that Boss, you have great ambitions, and the ceremony of sacrifice and seal is the starting point. At such an important moment, you should have brothers by your side. If you succeed, we will be glorious with you. If you fail, we will bear it with you."
Hearing this, Yu Xiaotian felt inexplicable again. He turned to look at Xu Rufeng, and saw that although his face was calm, his eyes were full of determination. Seeing Yu Xiaotian looking over, he slowly and resolutely said: "Brothers should share honor and disgrace!"
"Hahaha, okay, good brother, since that's the case, let's go through this seal ceremony together. Let's see who is the real hero!"
The three of them walked into the altar together with laughter. Of course, the guards knew their identities and did not dare to stop them.
There is a small square inside the altar, but there are grids one meter square drawn on the ground. Those who enter the altar choose a grid to stand on it. This is their own position. They can no longer move at will when the seal starts.
As soon as Yu Xiaotian and the other two entered the altar, they heard a sarcastic voice beside them: "Yeah, isn't this the three desecrated kings? You actually participated in the seal ceremony together. It's really...hahaha!"
Of course, Pan Bao was the one who spoke. At this moment, he was the only one who dared to come so blatantly to find fault.
Wang Xuanxuan scolded angrily: "Pan Bao, are you looking for death?"
"Looking for death? Hahaha, are you three trash?" Pan Bao said arrogantly, and was about to become a hero under the gaze of the crowd. Of course, he was extremely excited at this moment.
He smiled red and said, "The waste actually came too..."
"Pan Bao, it seems that you were very comfortable to beat you last time. I want to be beaten up by me before the seal sacrifice, right?" Just as Pan Bao opened his mouth to continue sarcasm, Yu Xiaotian said slowly.
His words really worked. Just this sentence made Pan Bao shut his mouth obediently.
He couldn't shut up. If he was really beaten up at this time, the ceremony of the seal sacrifice would be delayed. Pan Bao was not stupid either. He knew that he could not anger the other party at this time, so he could only give up unwillingly.
With a look of unwillingness in his eyes, he felt even more unhappy when he looked at the smug appearance of Yu Xiaotian and the other two, especially in front of so many young people, he felt very embarrassed, so he said angrily: "When the seal ceremony is over, see how I will deal with you waste."
