The Empress's No.1 Lackey-Chapter 314 - 274, Imperial Family Tributor Zhao Duan seeks guidance from the young master Tianhai (of 6000 words)_4

Mo Chou was prepared to rise, and the remaining court officials also gradually stood up, ready to leave their seats.

On the platform, Bian Ji's smile was gentle. After his final call, he said with a smile,

"It seems no one wishes to come up. If so..."

He was ready to announce the end of the magic duel.

However, just as the ministers were getting up and leaving their seats,

Throughout the entire event, Zhao Douan, who had been quietly watching, suddenly turned his head, looked at Eunuch Hai who was leaning on the armrest about to stand up, and said,

"Eunuch, please wait a moment."

"Hm?" Mr. Hai raised an eyebrow, looking at him.

Zhao Douan, who was neatly groomed and not in his official robe but in a short gown, stood up and said with a smile,

"I'll be back in a moment."

The old eunuch in a python robe was stunned for a second. At first, he didn't understand, but the next second, when he saw the direction Zhao Douan was heading, his pupils shrank sharply, and he finally realized something, speaking in a heavy voice,

"Have you lost your mind? You've just gotten over that obstacle..."

Zhao Douan paused, turned his head, and amidst the curious gazes of the people around, said,

"Eunuch, you taught me that a martial artist must have a heart that does not shrink from difficulties and faces challenges head-on. I thought about it..."

He lowered his head, then raised it again, his smile beaming,

"That makes sense."

Having said that, he resolutely turned and stepped down from the high viewing platform, under the puzzled eyes of the officials of Great Yu.

Below, an imperial guard saw him, solemnly saluted, and then raised his hand pointing in a direction, saying,

"My lord, the exit is this way..."

"I know." Zhao Douan smiled warmly, patted his shoulder, and then pointed towards the empty arena ahead, saying,

"I'm going over there."

The Little Guard was stunned on the spot.

He turned his head.

Watching that handsome figure approaching the platform, step by step.

On the viewing platform, Commandery Princess Xu Junling suddenly stomped her foot and grabbed the hand of her maid Lv Shui, freezing in place, turned around, and looked ahead in astonishment.

"Commandery Princess?"

The maid turned her head in confusion, and then she too was stunned.

Those who were getting up to leave their seats, led by Mo Zhaorong, also turned back in confusion.

The big block of ice was dumbfounded.

Big Green Robe Yuann Li suddenly narrowed his eyes.

Military God Xue Shence's normally unsmiling face changed abruptly, as if he had witnessed an unthinkable scene.

Ma Yan, who had just gotten up, felt his heart skip a beat, first shocked and then turning his head towards Eunuch Hai.

But he saw the old eunuch standing among the crowd, staring intently at the figure walking resolutely away, a sudden spark of clarity passing through those cloudy old eyes.

Mixed with worry... and relief!

Even the half-withered orange in his hand rolled to the ground, utterly disregarded!

"Ah! Paner, look quick, who is that coming out? My eyesight is poor, tell me, is it..."

On the side of the viewing platform where the ladies gathered,

You Jinhua suddenly stood up, forgetting the surprised gazes of the noblewomen around her, pointing down with one hand, while gripping her daughter's slender arm tightly with the other.

The lotus-like girl was also oblivious to the pain, her eyes wide, stammering,

"It's... Big Brother, it's Big Brother! Why did Big Brother go up? Could it be he's representing the court to announce something?"

Amidst the crowd,

"My lord? Why has he gone up?"

The marshals in brocade from Lihua Hall also noticed this scene, looking puzzled.

Haitang, Zhang Han, and other Masters were all momentarily dumbfounded, not immediately understanding why Zhao Douan had suddenly gone up to the stage.

"Brother Zhao?"

On Tianhai Mansion's side, Gongshu Tianyuan looked unsettled, comforting his junior sister. Hearing the commotion, he couldn't help but look up and then was speechless:

"The court didn't announce any additional events."

Jin Jian, who had just taken a Pill and was recovering, was sitting in his chair, also looked up, his gaze vacant behind his glasses.

"Eh, who's gone up?"

"Finally, someone challenging?"

"No, it's from the court officials' side, it shouldn't be a challenge."

The citizens of the Capital had also noticed someone taking the stage, but most did not recognize Zhao Douan's appearance.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone,

Zhao Douan ascended the platform alone.

His figure suddenly appeared on the screen in the sky.

The Heavenly Master with a gentle demeanor squinted his eyes, sizing up Zhao Douan who had taken the stage, and curiously asked,

"Mr. Zhao, do you have a matter?"

Zhao Douan smiled and gave a casual Buddhist salutation to this "acquaintance."

Then he turned towards the center of the arena, where a young monk was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, his calm voice piercing through the entire venue:

"I, Zhao Douan, a Tributor of the Imperial Family, request guidance from the young master Tianhai!"

A brief silence was followed by an uproar from the entire venue.
