Chapter 139: The Betrothed
In the Cangyue Empire, in addition to a few important festivals, it is the academy competition, which is the most grand and grand event.
During the competition, the population of Cangyue City can be increased to about twice as much.
This is not just an increase in the floating population, but a tripling of the total population of Cangyue City.
In normal times, Cangyue City has a permanent population of 20 million, and there are more than 10 million floating populations.
However, as the game progressed, the population of Cangyue City kept rising, and now it was close to breaking the 100 million mark, which was equivalent to the total population of a vassal state.
Among the vassal states, Canglan is not a small country, with twenty-three cities, but the total population is only more than two hundred million. Now the population of Cangyue City can be worth half of Canglan Country.
The dense population makes Cangyue City prosperous and lively.
Even the streets, which are usually sparsely populated, are now densely packed with people.
The stalls on both sides of the street are close to each other, and they don't want to waste any space.
The increase in population has also made Cangyue City full of business opportunities, and the people who came this time are mainly Jianghu warriors, compared to ordinary residents, Jianghu warriors can be called a large amount of money.
The daily transactions of ordinary residents are mainly based on copper and silver coins, but every time the warriors of the rivers and lakes make a move, they directly take out gold coins, and disdain things below silver coins.
often make an order with the warriors of the rivers and lakes, and the rewards and tips you get are worth several days' income.
In addition to the stalls on the street, those flowery and charming women are doing their best to attract customers.
Unlike the small people in the city, the warriors are much more popular, even if they look fierce, no one cares, anyway, the gold coins look the same.
The warrior is not only generous, but in other aspects, it is not so small that the people can compare.
Although they do the same thing, one can make them feel enough, and the other is hard for half a day, and in the end it is only a few minutes, and before they have time to feel it, it is over.
In an inn, it was also crowded with people, full of seats, and many martial artists, talking about the next game.
"Tomorrow is the final day of the quarterfinals, Yunxiao Academy, this time it can only end here. ”
"That female warrior named Red Lotus has very strong personal strength and can be ranked within the top ten. However, Yunxiao Academy, the remaining three martial artists, are inevitably too bad, and let a foundation building realm intermediate level play. Isn't there any other teacher who is a little more powerful? If that's the only way, it's just like that. ”
"Yunxiao Academy is a top four college, but it is a little unworthy of its name with this performance. ”
"In the student exam, there are only martial arts candidates, which is eye-catching. ”
"Sixteen-year-old Cyclone Realm, it's been many years, and this kind of demon hasn't appeared. ”
"However, the last time, the sixteen-year-old Cyclone Realm still appeared in the Cloud Academy, which is an indisputable fact. ”
"But except for the candidates of the martial arts department, the students of other departments of Yunxiao Academy did not even meet the top ten this time. ”
"The teacher's battle is snobbish again, and it is a big blow to the reputation of Yunxiao Academy. ”
"But this is also something that can't be changed, in the last game, the two teachers of Yunxiao Academy were seriously injured, and they didn't have ten days and half a month, I'm afraid they won't be able to recover their combat ability. ”
"Honglian is left alone, no matter how strong her personal strength is, it is impossible for three people to be an opponent. ”
"And among today's opponents, there is a teacher who is at the limit of martial arts like her. ”
"Yunxiao Academy this time, it is more auspicious and less auspicious, and it can only stay in the top eight. ”
In addition to the martial artists at this table, who are talking about Yunxiao Academy, there are also several tables talking about the competition.
"What! I didn't buy a ticket! I stayed here for three days, just to watch the peak martial arts duel, why is it so difficult!"
"This is also a matter of course, tens of millions of martial artists, but there are less than 100,000 tickets per day, and some of them have already been booked in advance. I don't know how many tickets are left. ”
"Damn! It's all those damn guys who can't buy tickets for themselves. ”
"Now the place where tickets are sold is full of people even three streets away. ”
"I didn't get one yesterday, but I started queuing the night before. How crazy are those people, and when did they start waiting!"
"The duel of peak martial artists, there are not many opportunities like this, among those teachers, there are still many who have reached the limit of martial artists, and their true qi and martial arts have reached the extreme, and by observing a duel, many people can enter an epiphany and go one step further again. Compared with the improvement of strength, what is such persistence?"
In addition to the vast majority, they were talking about the academy's competition, and there was another topic at the table, which also aroused some interest from Mo Yao.
"Have you heard?"
The second prince suddenly announced his engagement. ”
"The marriage of the second prince has always been a matter that has affected all the families in the empire before, and I don't know whose girl is so lucky that she finally tamed this unruly master. ”
"The second prince has not announced his marriage, just to wait for the reaction of these families, before his marriage is announced, countless families will think that they have a chance and choose to support the second prince. ”
But announcing his marriage at this time is not a wise choice, and he will lose the support of many families. ”
"Cut! What are those families, do you know who is engaged to the second prince this time?"
"The prime minister's daughter, or the young lady of the General's Mansion, can make the prince so eager to announce the marriage, and only these two people have this ability. ”
"Compared with that young lady, they are nothing, as long as the prince successfully completes the engagement, the second prince's support rate among the general public can rise by at least 50%, although he has lost some family support, but such a result is completely worth the prince's doing. ”
"Could it be that young lady......"
Although these people did not name names, the more Mo Yao listened, the stronger the feeling of depression in his heart became.
The second prince is undoubtedly Dongfang Dongyu, and he is also the only prince he is familiar with.
Is it the one who is engaged to him...... As long as Mo Yao thought about it, his chest was like a stone pressed against him, making him breathless.
But what reason did he have to take care of this matter? Who is Qin Wuwu?
Isn't this exactly what he wants?
Although the second prince is cold and arrogant, he is always decent, not those who are roosters and dogs, the most critical reason is that he is still a prince, and he will have the opportunity to become the supreme ruler of this country in the future.
This is the best destination for Qin Wuwu!
But why did he feel the pain of tearing in his heart, and the blood couldn't stop flowing out.
He already has Chu Hanyue and Su Li'er, even if he uses such a reason to numb himself, he still can't suppress that unpleasant feeling.
I want to tear everything apart and destroy everything!
