King Song had warned Wang Chong before he left that he had to be cautious, because King Qi would definitely think of a way to h his unfa this entire process, Wang Chong had been exceptionally vigilant

In addition, he had done everything that the old official had talked about, leaving nothing to be criticized Even the most inflexible official from the Bureau of Rites wouldn’t be able to find any proble was sure that he was about to h unnoticed, was extree Emperor At an i, King Qi shouldn’t have been so bold as to do anything too brazen But then what had he done?

His gaze accidentally swept over the last few steps of white jade in front of his The old official had once ras and completeness Nine syn of the Nine and Five and the five-clawed dragon all symbolized the Emperor

In all protocols and ceremonies, the most taboo were the words ‘nine’ and ‘five’ One had to be extres, as one could easily end up coaze ian to count One, two, three, four, five… When he reached nine, he paled and understood

These bastards!

Wang Chong glanced at the officials from the Bureau of Rites and Chaht flashing through his eyes

The Imperial Stairway of white jade in front of the Taiji Palace was known as the Path of the True Dragon Until one was su the top Ordinary civilians without any sort of rank or title particularly had to pay attention to this or end up coon was nine, so the ninth step of the Imperial Stairway absolutely could not be touched

These officials had intentionally stood a few steps back while reading the decree If he had not noticed, he would have ended up kneeling on the ninth step, thus offending the dragon

In all the protocol of the cereht passed through Wang Chong’sdidn’t knoould happen if these officials succeeded, but this single charge of disrespect was probably enough for King Qi to deal with hie E Qi had his way, the Wang Clan had nothing to fear with the power it wielded But at thisneeded to possess sufficient status to realize his dreams and aspirations, to save the people of this world!

The s fall into his trap immediately disappeared

If looks could kill, those officials standing on the Imperial Stairould have had their bodies pincushioned with arrows, their heads rolling on the ground, their deaths repeated countless ti Chong raised his head and looked up

After their initial daze, the officials quickly regained their co to the will of the heavens, the E Chong, expending his whole fortune and providing his oeapons, defeated Dalun Ruozan, Geluofeng, and Huoshu Huicang in the southwest… By dealing aar, benefitted the country, and benefitted the one million civilians of the southwest He has been summoned to the palace to be rewarded as an expression of divine will&8221;

The official fro the decree appeared so nothing on his face

"May the E kept to the protocol taught to hi his back to face the three officials standing before hi, there are three divine decrees This is the first Take good care of it!&8221;

"My thanks!&8221;

Wang Chong faintly s over them as he received the decree and fully stood up

But this faint shten these officials It was like this seventeen-year-old could see all their secrets

This was a very strange feeling They were clearly h to , His Majesty has yet to appear Wait here for the su on these words, the officials hurriedly left, not daring to delay

But the rewwith anticipation
