Fengfu's boat went all the way to Xiadu via the waterway.
After nightfall, Feng Xin listened to the sound of gurgling water at the bottom of the boat, and couldn't fall asleep for a long time.
He has always been a light sleeper. In the early days, it was only because of the company of that voice that he could sleep soundly until dawn.
There has been no contact for more than ten days, and something called longing has taken root in my heart.
Feng Ling has been kept close to his body in his arms all the time, like a treasure, no one can touch it.
In the middle of the night, he always took it out habitually, put it aside, and fiddled with it in his hands, hoping to hear that familiar voice.
But again and again, he was always disappointed and kept his eyes open until dawn.
Around midnight, Feng Ling suddenly moved.
A voice that made Feng Xin's heart beat faster came after a long absence.
"Ling Yue?"
Feng Xin sat up abruptly, excitedly clenched Feng Ling.
From Feng Ling's end, came a familiar and pleasant laughter.
"Feng Xin, I'm back."
She finally came back.
Ye Lingyue said lightly that she had left Xingxiu Cave and was rushing back to Daxia.
Feng Xin also told Ye Lingyue that members of the Ye family would also participate in this imperial competition.
"I will definitely participate in the imperial competition. Please help me bring a message to the Lan Mansion and tell them that everything will go according to plan."
Ye Lingyue hurriedly said a few words to Feng Xin, but she didn't say when she would rush back to Daxia.
After a few days, Feng Xin arrived in Xiadu, Ye Huangyu also rushed to pick up everyone from the Ye family.
On the way Fengxin returned to Fengfu, she saw crowds of people on the street. In Xiadu, there were many warriors equipped with weapons, and some sect disciples were also coming in and out of the city. I asked the sword slave to find out. These people are all here to participate in the Great Xia Imperial Competition.
The Great Xia Imperial Competition is a grand event in the entire Great Xia, but due to the limited national power, the scale of the Imperial Competition in the early years can only be regarded as quite satisfactory.
But this year's imperial competition was a little different.
Speaking of it, it was because of the crown prince Xia Houqi. Xia Houqi advised Emperor Xia. In order to attract more young and promising warriors to participate, he specially added a reward. Anyone who can enter the top three in the imperial competition can get the reincarnation pill One, the top three can also directly enter Daxia as an official.
This approach of his made the influence of Daxia Yuqian Competition reach a new height.
Leaving aside the folk warriors, even some young warriors from second- and third-rate sects came here especially for a reincarnation pill.
As a result, an unprecedented number of people came to participate in the imperial competition. For this reason, the palace had to add two arenas on the basis of the original one. Three arenas will be held at the same time every day.
"After the sixth prince became a prince, he has improved a lot. He is much more intelligent than Emperor Xia." Feng Xin nodded after hearing this.
When he left Beiqing, he also heard from Emperor Beiqing that Xia Houqi had agreed to marry Beiqing and would go to Beiqing to apply for a letter of engagement soon.
The changes that happened to Xia Houqi are most likely related to Ye Lingyue's "death". Xia Houqi had a deep affection for Ye Lingyue, and knowing that Ye Lingyue had died, the news undoubtedly hit him hard.
However, Feng Xin didn't plan to correct this mistake with kindness, and he would be very happy to have one less person thinking about his woman.
However, Xia Houqi's actions intensified the conflict between the Hong Mansion and the imperial court to a certain extent.
In the Hong Mansion, there has also been an undercurrent of turmoil recently.
"Hmph, the prince is so deep in the city, and it is the reincarnation pill, and Xu Yi's official position. He did this clearly to cultivate his own power and deal with our Hong family."
As soon as the news of the rewards for the imperial competition came out, the Hong family was very dissatisfied, especially Hong Fang.
Recently, Emperor Xia was in poor health, so he handed over government affairs to the crown prince. Xia Houqi had already taken advantage of this opportunity to suppress several ministers attached to the Hong Mansion, and several political proposals proposed by Hong Fang were also rejected by Xia Houqi. Qi reprimanded him.
Hong Fang had been the crown prince for several years, even when Xia Houhong was here, he never dared to talk to him like this, Xia Houqi scolded Hong Fang bloody in front of all civil and military officials How could Hong Fang swallow this breath
"Father, don't be impatient. Xia Houqi is using the method of provoking generals. He is clearly waiting for the opportunity to find your troubles and take advantage of the opportunity to let go of your position as Grand Tutor. Before the retreat, Grandpa also warned repeatedly that no matter what happened Whatever happens, wait until he leaves the customs, at least a month, at least a few days, grandpa will definitely leave the customs." When Hong Mingyue was in Xingxiu Cave, when he had the idea of killing Xia Houqi, he had already guessed that there would be today.
However, now grandpa Hong Qingyun has taken the Nine Turns of Reincarnation Pill, and has begun to attack the realm of supernatural powers.
As long as Hong Qingyun's attack is successful, the Hong family will rebel, and a change of dynasty will become inevitable.
Hong Mingyue's words calmed Hong Fang's mind a bit.
"Mingyue, how sure are you of this Great Xia Yuqian competition?"
Hong Fang has always been very sure of his daughter's strength, but this time, Xia Houqi did not hesitate to reward him with the Samsara Pill, his intention was very obvious, he just didn't want Hong Mingyue to get the first place.
Nowadays, many disciples of sects have entered Xiadu, competing for the imperial competition for the reincarnation pill. As a result, Hong Mingyue's chances of winning are uncertain.
"Father, I won't lose. I just broke through the second realm of reincarnation yesterday." Hong Mingyue said flatly.
"Is this true?" Hong Dafang was overjoyed, no wonder, Hong Mingyue was not in the mansion all day yesterday, so he went to find a place to break through.
His daughter is worthy of being a genius among geniuses, she has only broken through the first level of reincarnation, and she has broken through the second level of reincarnation so quickly, such an achievement is beyond the reach of Hong Fang himself.
"It's absolutely true, so father can rest assured this time, the daughter will definitely live up to father's expectations." Hong Mingyue deliberately went out of the city to attack the second way of reincarnation, because she didn't want people in Xiadu to know her breakthrough. thing.
If it is said that Hong Mingyue, who is reincarnated together, is not enough for Hong Fang to be convinced that she will definitely win the first place in the imperial competition, but now that her cultivation base has improved, then her victory will become an iron nail.
"I just said, you are more promising than that Ye Lingyue, and you are the number one genius in our Hong family." When Hong Fang thought of the past few days, when they were in the court, Ye Huangyu and Nie Fengxing felt sick. Wohuo.
In the past, Hong Mingyue had always been his pride.
But since Ye Lingyue appeared, I don't know when, her sharpness has become more and more powerful.
Especially in Beiqing, the five-color reincarnation pill was refined, and in the Xingxiu Cave, he died with the sky demon. Too much halo enveloped Ye Lingyue all at once, which made Hong Mingyue, who had been outstanding since childhood, feel sad. There are many eclipses.
