Hearing Jingse's innocent words, the ladies all laughed and couldn't help but make fun of him.
"Because Jingse is good-looking, he wants to be with Jingse."
"Is Jingse willing to be with him?"...
Jing Se blushed and turned around to hide behind someone, but the noble ladies grabbed her with their smiling hands and feet and wouldn't let her hide.
Blind dates in this world are so direct. Xu Lian follows the local customs and has long been accustomed to it. He has already put his knowledge into practice. He looked at Jing Se seriously, "How many times did I look at you just now?"
Jing Se obviously didn't expect him to ask this, his face turned even redder, and after thinking for a while, he said, "It should be five or six times."
Xu Lian said, "Then you must have looked at me at least five or six times, or even more. If you didn't look at me, how would you know that I was looking at you?"
Jing Se was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, feeling so ashamed that he broke free from the clutches of the ladies and ran to the back to hide.
Ying Ming and Jing Que looked at each other, then looked at Xu Lian meaningfully, knowing that he was interested in Jing Se.
Ying Ming smiled and brought over a few glasses of wine, sharing them with Xu Lian and Jing Que. He also took a glass for himself. He raised his glass to Xu Lian and said, "It's easy to deal with the other sisters of Jing Que and me. If you like any of them, you can just take them away. But it's different with Jing Se."
Xu Lian raised his glass to signal him, then drank it all in one gulp, "Has Jingse already promised someone?"
Ying Ming shook his head, "That's not the case. I've already promised to be with someone else's sister, so why would she appear at this party?"
Xu Lian thought about it and realized that if she was already promised to someone else, why would she come to this "blind date"? "Since she wasn't promised to another man, why not?"
Ying Ming explained, "It's not that it's impossible, but Jingse is still young and simple by nature, not as worldly-wise as the other sisters.
If it is any other sister, no matter which one you take away, the two dukedoms can rest assured, knowing that they will not suffer any loss if they go to the outside world with you.
But Jingse may not know how to protect himself.
You are too mysterious. Up to now, the two dukes have not found out your background. You are like a top genius who suddenly appeared. Before they find out your background, they will definitely not feel at ease to give Jinse to you. "
Okay... Xu Lian understood, and after a moment's silence, he said, "It is not convenient for me to reveal my origins for now, but you should know it after the selection of the consort is over."
Ying Ming was puzzled, "Why do we have to wait until the selection of the consort is over to find out?"
"Don't ask. You will know sooner or later anyway."
Xu Lian was in a difficult position to explain, because if his relationship with Li Xiya were to be spread out, not only would it bring shame to the royal family of You Dynasty, but it would also anger all the geniuses participating in the selection of the prince consort.
The princess has already been married to someone, but she is still selecting a prince consort. What does she think of the geniuses who are participating in the selection
This will inevitably cause the You Dynasty royal family to incur public wrath and offend many forces. Even the You Dynasty royal family cannot withstand such pressure. At that time, the You Dynasty royal family will not be able to end it and can only vent their anger on him.
Therefore, before he becomes the prince consort of the royal family, it is best not to reveal his identity, so as to prevent someone with ulterior motives from finding out his background and knowing his relationship with Li Xiya.
Before he became a consort to the emperor, if his relationship with Li Xiya was exposed, it would have become a scandal for the imperial family of the You Dynasty; if he became a consort to the emperor and his relationship with Li Xiya was exposed, it would have become a good story...
A legend.
A beautiful story.
This is the human heart.
It's best for losers to remain silent, because anything they say is wrong.
When you succeed, everything you say becomes true.
"All right."
Ying Ming looked at him deeply and didn't ask any more questions.
Jing Que didn't talk much and just drank.
"The Prince of Jinnan has arrived!
The Prince of Zhenbei has arrived!
The Grand Tutor’s legitimate son has arrived!
The Prime Minister's son has arrived!"
At the gate of the manor, a series of singings were heard.
As the organizers of this party, Ying Ming and Jing Que, as the hosts, should go out to welcome them.
Xu Lian had no one to accompany him, so he couldn't help feeling a little bored. Under the smiling gazes of the ladies, he went behind them to look for Jing Se.
When Jingse saw him coming, she subconsciously wanted to hide. This was really the innocent mentality of a young girl.
Xu Lian followed Jing Se closely. Wherever Jing Se hid, he followed.
Jingse looked pleadingly, hoping that he wouldn't do this.
He remained unmoved and just kept following Jingse, asserting his sovereignty in such a primitive way.
This action was simple and practical, and it let Jingse's panicked heart know clearly that he was interested in her. Jingse's panicked heart gradually calmed down, and she no longer avoided him.
Xu Lian brought some food over, put it in front of Jingse, sat next to Jingse, and whispered to Jingse, saying things like "You are so pretty", "I noticed you at first sight among these ladies just now"...
"These should be the Four Heroes of the Imperial Capital."
When Xu Lian was talking to Jing Se, he noticed that Ying Ming and Jing Que brought in four young men. Each of them had the aura of a successful practitioner, and they were dignified, imposing, and had a noble temperament.
Xu Lian had arrived in the Imperial Capital for more than ten days. Apart from the days of competing in competitions, he had taken the three girls to travel around the Imperial Capital. He had gained some understanding of the Imperial Capital and knew that among the younger generation in the Imperial Capital, there were four top geniuses who had reached the Grandmaster level and were known as the Four Heroes of the Imperial Capital.
The four heroes of the imperial capital were directly arranged into the knockout rounds without having to participate in the preliminaries and preliminary rounds.
"Young Chief of the Savage Tribe, Fu Ye, is here!"
At the gate of the manor, there was a singing of ceremony.
As more and more geniuses arrived, Ying Ming and Jing Que could no longer bring them in one by one to keep them company, so they had to stand at the door to greet them.
A young man dressed in animal skins and tree barks swaggered in, carrying a huge wolf-toothed animal bone club on his shoulder.
Xu Lian looked at him strangely, this was very similar to the ceremonial attire for the wedding of the Thirteen Clans. Could it be that the barbaric tribe still maintained a primitive hunting lifestyle
"Youth Sect, Young Sect Master, the New Year has arrived!"
At the gate of the manor, the sound of singing and worshipping could be heard continuously.
Another person caught Xu Lian’s attention. He didn’t expect to see the young master of the Ghost Sect here. It was a very strange name. Year
Upon seeing this, his claustrophobia started to set in. He saw that this "year" looked like a teenager, with pale skin on his face and body, and the most noticeable thing was that in the gaps of his hair grew small heads like peeled lychees, and each of the small heads was making weird noises. Who could stand this? He didn't want to look at it anymore after just one look.
Jingse also frowned, feeling uncomfortable.
Xu Lian pointed at himself, meaning that Jingse should look at him more.
Jingse was shy but did not refuse. She looked at him from time to time.
"Falling Star Palace, Gemini, Jun Han and Jun Yan, here we are!"
Some geniuses are plain-looking and hard to attract attention, but some geniuses cannot help but attract attention. The twins of Luoxing Palace are like this. They look exactly the same, but one exudes a bone-chilling aura, and people cannot stand around him. The other exudes a hot aura, and people cannot stand around him either... Too eye-catching.
"Yunmengze, Prince Zijiao is here!"
"Yunmengze, the Black Crocodile Prince is here!"
"Yunmengze, the prince of Qingmang King, is here!"
Some eye-catching geniuses have arrived. Although they have transformed into human bodies, they still retain obvious characteristics of alien beasts. It is obvious that they are geniuses from the demon race.
Ying Ming and Jing Que waited for more than an hour at the gate of the manor before coming in to keep them company, chatting and laughing with the geniuses. It was mainly Ying Ming who did the talking, while Jing Que was relatively silent.
Geniuses come in groups of three or four to get to know each other. Geniuses are all proud, but everyone knows the importance of connections. Competition comes second, and friendship comes first.
Of course, there were also some spoilers who wanted to disrupt the harmonious atmosphere and stir up trouble. "Has Xu Lian, who was worshipped as a deity by the ignorant masses, arrived?"
The person who said this was none other than the young chief of the Savage Tribe. Fuye looked quite rough as he carried a wolf-tooth bone-collecting club in one hand and drank from a large jar of wine in the other.
After these words were spoken, the geniuses from all sides fell silent and looked at each other.
