Chapter 2747 - 2747 Senior Elder Kongyin
2747 Senior Elder Kongyin
The Fourth Elder and the other two contemporaneously cupped their hands and exclaimed, “The ancestral rules cannot be violated, Your Majesty.”
“This confirmation of identity still requires awaiting the return of our Senior Elder Kongyin!”
“Indeed, it would be prudent to wait for Senior Elder.”
The court officials exchanged glances, sensing that today’s incident might not conclude peacefully.
The youthful crown prince consort, along with the crown prince consort and the Crown Prince, were figures not to be taken lightly.
/The Council of Elders was resorting to various excuses and essentially shifting the resolution’s responsibility to Senior Elder Kongyin, who was currently on a journey and had yet to return. How was he expected to manage this situation?/
“What decision must you await from this old man?” Suddenly, a deep voice resonated from beyond the main hall, accompanied by a carefree chuckle.
“I hadn’t anticipated that even after years of travel, the Council of Elders would continue to hold me in such high regard! Even when a decision is reached, it appears that I must still be present to give it the final seal of approval. Excellent, excellent! Hahahahaha!”
Simultaneously, everyone’s lips twitched as they exchanged perplexed looks. Their internal thoughts resounded: /Is this for real? Could it truly be this coincidental?/
/How on earth did he manage to arrive just as everyone convened?/
Did Senior Elder Kongyin truly appear???
Their gazes then shifted to the Fourth Elder, the Fifth Elder, and the Sixth Elder. All three were visibly dumbfounded, and in unison, they turned their attention to the main hall’s entrance.
There stood a grey-robed elder of around sixty years, stepping into the hall with purpose.
His shining bald head was as brilliant as three thousand lamps, almost blinding the onlookers!
/Goodness gracious!/
/Could this truly be Senior Elder Kongyin?/
However, a collective expression of astonishment appeared on everyone’s faces when they witnessed this anomaly.
“Respectful greetings to Senior Elder Kongyin!” The brandy-nosed senior was the first to recover from his shock. He made sure not to stir any trouble and hastily bent over to pay his respects.
Following suit, the Third Elder, the Fourth Elder, and the others also simultaneously bowed in perfect unison, as if they had been struck at their acupuncture points. “Respectful greetings to Senior Elder Kongyin.”
“Hahahahaha, excellent, very excellent!” Senior Elder Kongyin stroked his beard and chuckled. “It comes as a surprise that even after years of traveling and neglecting worldly affairs, you all still hold such respect for this old man. Splendid! Admirable.”
The room remained silent, conveying the unspoken sentiment:
Elder Kongyin, are you jesting? Your cultivation is practically immeasurable. Who would dare to show disrespect? Are you aiming to provoke catastrophe?
The brandy-nosed elder tugged at the corner of his mouth and coughed lightly before saying, “Your vast experiences from your travels are greatly valued. We’re pleased to have you back. Your guidance and oversight as the abbot will undoubtedly benefit us.”
Amid hearty laughter, Senior Elder Kongyin nodded and spoke, “Second Brother, Third Brother, you both have endured much in my absence.”
“Not at all, not at all.” Overwhelmed by the unexpected kindness, the brandy-nosed senior promptly clasped his hands, then took a step back, nudging Fatty, the Third Elder, who had remained stationary.
Responding swiftly, the Third Elder cupped his hands and declared, “Senior Elder’s return is most opportune. The Council of Elders currently faces a matter that requires your decision.”
At this point, the seven members of the Council of Elders had all convened.
The previous decision had been split evenly. Now, with Senior Elder’s intervention, the matter could be settled promptly if he so wished.
Nevertheless, considering Senior Elder’s reputation for unpredictability in the past…
The brandy-nosed elder felt a deep sense of concern and unease as he shifted his gaze towards the young crown prince consort and the crown prince consort caught in his line of sight.
His eyes met the fixed and unwavering stares of the young crown prince consort and the crown prince consort, both locked onto their respected Big Brother. Their gazes seemed transfixed upon Senior Elder Kongyin, carrying a touch of peculiarity, as if…
