A total of 36 people participated in the selection test for the son-in-law. Fan Xiaowen died, leaving 35 people.
Due to the large number of people, Murong Ci and He Guang, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, agreed that the martial arts test would be divided into two days, the first and the final. Three of the thirty-six people in the first round formed a group, making a total of twelve groups, and the twelve winners entered the final round. However, now that there is one person missing, they decided that there will be only two people in one group, and the winner will be decided.
The Wenhua Hall is grand and majestic. It has always been used as a palace venue for grand ceremonies. The emperor ascended the throne, the emperor got married, the queen was appointed, and the generals were ordered to go out. Congratulate the court and give a banquet to the princes and ministers.
The venue in front of the hall is open, and this martial arts test is set here.
The staff of the Ministry of Rites set up three carved chairs and small tables in the corridor of the hall, and a red carpet was laid on the steps in front of the hall for the martial arts test; many chairs were set up on both sides for the civil and military ministers and their families to sit, and the guests watched district. This time, in order to show the solemnity of the selection of the son-in-law and the importance attached by His Majesty the Emperor, the family members of the Beijing officials who participated in the fourth rank and above were specially allowed to enter the palace to watch.
Unlike the scorching sun in the sky and the bright sunshine in the past few days, today is extremely hot, with gloomy haze clouds piled up in the sky.
Before the time came, the Wenhua Hall was already full of people, and the voices were noisy. He Guang, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, led a group of colleagues and servants to make preparations, gathered young talents together, and explained the method of drawing lots to determine who will compete with whom in the same group , if three people draw the first group at the same time, then these three people will compete in the same group.
Whether the draw is to meet a strong opponent or a weaker opponent requires a bit of luck.
After the lottery is drawn, the people from the Ministry of Rites will register. Some people are happy, some are sad, some are indifferent, some are calm, some are moaning, some are smiling
The hour was approaching, and everyone was anxiously waiting. Finally, the crown prince and Yu Wang arrived.
Coming at the same time as Murong Yu, Murong Ci refused in his heart, but he happened to meet him in the palace road ahead.
This time, she came sitting on the shoulder, and didn't come down until in front of the Wenhua Palace.
Everyone bowed to meet them, a human-shaped arch bridge.
There are so many people.
Did the family members of the fourth-rank officials of the imperial capital come into the palace to watch the competition
Make sure those ladies from aristocratic families and famous families are not here to choose a son-in-law
But she knew that most of these people were so respectful because of Murong Yu.
Murong Yu lowered his shoulders, his figure was majestic and majestic, standing tall between the sky and the earth, his unpredictable deep and sharp eyes swept across a cold and frosty place, but it made people feel that he didn't see it. Anyone, looking beyond the mortal world and all living beings, swings to the lofty and vast sky.
The so-called clean eyes, so it is.
"You are welcome."
The voice is deep and clear, cold and alienated.
Murong Ci gave him a dark look, turned his head and walked forward in disdain.
Put it on, put on it hard.
Because she was walking too fast, or didn't pay attention to her feet, she tripped over the corner of the red carpet, staggered, and then rushed forward.
This happened in an instant, and she didn't expect it at all.
In the blink of an eye, she instinctively wanted to use lightness kung fu to stabilize her body, but on this occasion she had to play the role of the idiot prince, so she gritted her teeth and rushed forward, ready to throw a dog to eat shit.
Although most people focused their attention on the handsome and handsome Yu Wang, many people still saw the idiot prince's indecent attitude.
The ladies waited with their eyes wide open, the wives covered their mouths and waited, and the civil and military ministers looked forward to it, and then there will be a hilarious and wonderful show: the idiot prince gnaws mud.
How can an idiot prince be compared with Yu Wang
On this occasion, the idiot prince is here to gaffe and provide jokes
Murong Ci was already mentally prepared and prepared to throw a wonderful show, in order to win the vicious taste of the ministers and their families, and update their conversation materials after tea, but he did not expect the result to be like that
I just felt that there was a strong force grabbing her wide sleeves, and the next moment her waist tightened, and then she stood firmly.
The long arm across her waist was seared into her flesh and blood like cold iron, and immediately became extremely hot.
She was a little flustered when she smelled the masculine and warm scent mixed with agarwood, but she had already "experienced in hundreds of battles", so she immediately escaped from this person's control without changing her expression.
What annoyed her was that in front of everyone, he was so brazen, cunning and insidious, not only secretly increased his strength, but also took her into his arms.
The situation became that she leaned towards him deliberately "weakly", and stayed in his arms, shameless and immoral.
asshole
She is the crown prince of the current dynasty, the future emperor of Beiyan. Where did she come from without shame and shame
Murong Yu is the most shameless and outrageous
Murong Ci suddenly felt like a thorn in his back, and he didn't need to look to know, those ladies stared angrily, those noble ladies contemptuously, those ministers shook their heads and sighed bitterly, all condemnation, ridicule, and angry eyes were fixed on her. In an instant, her back turned into a bird's nest, an arrow target, a thousand sores
Hundreds of holes, devastated, blood dripping.
Especially for those ladies who have a secret love for Murong Yu and feel that he has become their ideal husband, those gazes soaked by the water of the glaciers, mixed with the cold air of the glaciers, penetrated the back of her head and back. .
"Still not letting go"
She gritted her teeth secretly, the fine white teeth gleaming with pearls, she was thinking, it would be good if the flickering was the light of the sword, and a sword pierced his throat.
Murong Yu smiled, "This is His Highness trying to bind himself, and what to do with this king? This king is just out of good intentions to help His Highness, otherwise His Highness will throw a wonderful show that will be recorded in the books and books. Your Highness should King Xie Ben is the one."
Murong Ci wished he could bite a big piece of meat off his arm, squeezed out a smile and said in a low voice: "Your Highness has a heart like the sea, how can you bring up old things over and over again? Besides, His Highness is a dignified and iron-blooded general, in front of everyone, It doesn't matter if the reputation of the palace is bad, but the reputation of the prince cannot be damaged. Prince, when it's time to let go, let it go, gentlemen, be more generous. "
"This king is really stingy, and besides, this king is not worried about his own reputation, why are you so worried?" Looking at His Highness's smirk that couldn't be more fake, he suddenly felt that His Highness's eyebrows were curved when he smirked , don't have a sweet taste.
"The time has come, it's important to get down to business." She struggled angrily, her eyes turned a little cold.
They fought hand-to-hand and filed a secret lawsuit, but everyone around them was stunned and stunned. Why did the Yuwang and the prince become clay statues
Those ladies are heartbroken and full of hatred, how can the prince occupy the arms of Yuwang and steal Yuwang's beauty
The crown prince should be damned to a lady who thinks so.
The prince must have taken a fancy to Yu Wang's beauty, and some lady who pretended to fall stared at him bitterly.
The prince actually coveted Yu Wang's beauty, it was too shameless and disgusting, it was almost impossible for a certain lady to stomp her feet in resentment and hatred.
When the crown prince openly entangled with Yu Wang, what a downfall, the officials shook their heads and sighed.
Whispering discussions flooded the Wenhua Palace like a flood, Murong Ci's face flushed with rage, and he pushed him unbearably.
Murong Yu let go of her hand abruptly, because she used too much force, and because of her inertia, she actually took a few steps back before standing still, quite embarrassed.
She was about to explode with anger, her hands were clenched tightly, trembling slightly, her small face was covered with bright clouds, like the sky was full of sunset, and it was like peach blossoms burning, her delicate color was quite seductive.
This is not the time to admire, but he has already had a panoramic view of her beauty, and he will slowly savor it later.
This weird drama finally came to an end.
Murong Ci grumbled and went to the hall porch to sit down, took a cup of tea and poured it, to extinguish his anger.
Murong Yu calmly walked over to take a seat, without looking at her, his eyes swept away leisurely.
The ladies who thought they had received Yu Wang's gaze were overjoyed, and all of them puffed out their chests and retracted their stomachs, and put on the most graceful and charming posture to win Yu Wang's favor, either with shy faces, or boldly staring, or shy and timid.
Seeing this, He Guang, Minister of Rites, immediately announced that the competition was about to begin.
Murong Ci stretched out his hand to put down the teacup, but his eyes fell on the wonderful expressions of those ladies. Before he retracted his hand, something cold suddenly touched the back of his fingers. Her heart skipped a beat, she realized something, and immediately withdrew her hand.
However, will it be so easy
The three fingers in the middle were caught, and she pulled them back vigorously, but they did not move.
At this time, He Guang was arranging the first group to start the competition, and everyone's attention was shifted to the competition on the red carpet in the middle.
Murong Yu's cool eyes fell in front of him carelessly, that handsome face had a light smile like a spring breeze, the wife deserved a beating
She was so angry that she jumped, but she didn't dare to make any noise. It would be too evil to disturb everyone.
In a hurry, she picked up another cup of tea and took a sip, and was about to spray water on him, sending out a hidden weapon of rainstorm pear blossoms, when he let go of his hand immediately.
He turned to look at her, his gentle and harmless eyes fixed on her face, making people feel that he is in a good mood at the moment and doesn't care about you.
Murong Ci swallowed his tea, gave him a hard look, and concentrated on watching the competition.
There is a big drum on the east side under the jade steps, and the guards beat it vigorously, thump, thump, and the sound is exciting.
The drum beat stopped, and the first set of competitions began immediately.
She suddenly remembered that Shen Zhiyan said yesterday that he would come to watch the competition, why didn't he come after the competition started
The martial arts of the three people in the first group competition were mediocre, and their fights were not exciting enough, so there was really not much to watch.
After a while, one person won.
With a glance, she saw Murong Yu picking up the cup of tea that she had just taken a sip of.
She stared at him dumbfounded, as if to say: I have drank it before, how dare you drink it
Murong Yu's eyes were pale: Why didn't you dare to drink
Watching him drink gracefully, she suddenly felt her cheeks burn, all the way to her ears and neck.
