At night, the lanterns are embellished, the whole imperial capital, like day, on the street, people come and go, especially the flower street of the imperial capital, it is even more lively, it is really people from the flower street, countless red sleeves.
Yun Fan naturally didn't need to go shopping in the flower street, just wandered around casually.
In the middle of the imperial capital, there is a river passing through, at this moment, there are at least hundreds of painting boats on the river slowly floating by, among the painting boats, there is a pleasant sound of the piano coming out, the Oiran election, will be held in three days, basically the Oiran from all over the Holy Zhou Empire has come to the imperial capital.
Those Oiran, there are backers behind them, this Oiran election, the dignitaries and dignitaries of the imperial capital, literati and writers, but they are all judges, as an Oiran, not only their own strength must be excellent, but also this means of communication must be excellent.
Just like Li Shuang'er, the Oiran of Qingzhou Mansion, she is in the imperial capital, but she also has acquaintances, this is not the first day to come to the imperial capital, she personally came to visit, at night, she was invited to the painting boat, night tour of the imperial capital.
On one of the largest and most luxurious painting boats, Li Shuang'er was playing the piano and singing under the gaze of a group of powerful people.
These magnates are basically young faces, sitting next to Li Shuang'er, is a handsome boy wearing a light gold robe and holding a jade fracture fan.
This prince is not an ordinary person, he is the fourteenth highness Zhou Yan, although he is not in the top of His Majesty's many sons, but he is very favored, and he is also one of the most powerful candidates for the crown prince.
When Zhou Yan met Li Shuang'er in Qingzhou, he was attracted by Li Shuang'er, and Li Shuang'er was also impressed by the talent and ability of His Highness the Fourteenth.
Li Shuang'er stopped, Zhou Yan couldn't help but take the lead in applauding, others also applauded, praised, sitting below Zhou Yan, are the young talents of the younger generation of the imperial capital, Zhou Yan wants to be the prince, it is not enough to rely on his own strength, he must attract some talents in order to achieve a great cause.
Zhou Yan in the imperial capital, but also established a recruitment pavilion, as long as it is a talent, Mao Sui self-recommended to come, and over the years, Zhou Yan has traveled all over the Holy Zhou Empire, looking for hermits, condescending to the noble, three visits to the thatched house, this kind of thing, Zhou Yan often does, Zhou Yan's thirst for talent, after transmission, the entire Holy Zhou Empire people know.
Almost every day, talented people from all over the world come to Zhaoxian Pavilion, except for some people who are cheated and abducted, as long as they are capable of outstanding ability, Zhaoxian Pavilion will be admitted.
Once you enter the Zhaoxian Pavilion, you will be the guest of the Fourteenth Highness, with a respected status, and you can enjoy endless glory and wealth.
Zhou Yan so blatantly expanded his power, naturally with His Majesty's permission, the position of the crown prince of the Holy Zhou Empire is not according to the primogeniture inheritance law, but the capable live in it, so Zhou Zhan will not stop the development of the princes.
It's not just Zhou Yan who is recruiting, other princes are also recruiting, but the real talents, they generally choose trees to live in, some princes are originally mediocre, even if the conditions given are rich, the front of the door is deserted, and it is difficult to recruit half of the talents.
"Shuang'er is ugly. Li Shuang'er smiled slightly, bent down and said modestly.
"Miss Li, I have heard thousands of voices, only your singing voice impresses me deeply, this Oiran election, although it is a little difficult to defeat Ye Miaoqing, but it is easy to enter the top three. Zhou Yan said with a smile.
"It's already an honor for Shuang'er to be in the top three, and as for this leader's position, Shuang'er doesn't dare to covet it. Li Shuang'er said, her soft tone, coupled with her pleasant voice, it was really intoxicating.
In the painting boat, there was a cheerful and peaceful atmosphere, and suddenly, the painting boat stopped suddenly, and a guard hurriedly ran in, knelt in front of Zhou Yan and said: "Your Highness Fourteen, Your Highness Seventh's painting boat blocked the way, saying that you want to meet Miss Shuang'er." ”
Zhou Yan frowned slightly, but quickly returned to normal.
"Then go and meet him. Zhou Yan smiled, and then glanced at Li Shuang'er, Li Shuang'er was sensible, without Zhou Yan to say, he left the table and walked to Zhou Yan's side, looking at Zhou Yan's eyes, full of affection.
As a prince, Zhou Yan is not only profound, but also talented, handsome and extraordinary, especially with a noble character, and is deeply loved by the people.
When he was in Qingzhou Mansion, Zhou Yan had already made an oath to Li Shuang'er, and when he inherited the imperial throne in the future, he would marry Li Shuang'er, Li Shuang'er was going to take the initiative to sacrifice his innocence at that time, and he didn't even have an oiran, but Zhou Yan was not moved by women, and nothing happened to Li Shuang'er, he thought more long-term, Li Shuang'er was not only the Oiran, but also worked hard to become the first Oiran of the Holy Zhou Empire.
The first Oiran of the Holy Zhou Empire, that is a kind of glory, no one dares to humiliate, a queen of the Holy Zhou Empire was the first Oiran of the Holy Zhou Empire, after she became the queen mother, she assisted the emperor, worked hard, loved the people like a son, and passed down many good stories.
If Li Shuang'er wants to become the next queen mother, she must become the first Oiran of the Holy Zhou Empire, so that the people of the Holy Zhou Empire can accept it and will not criticize it too much.
Zhou Yan said so, which strengthened Li Shuang'er's determination to become the first Oiran, before Zhou Yan did not become the king of God, between him and Li Shuang'er, there was affection, and there was no excessive intimacy, let alone intimacy in public.
Seeing Li Shuang'er looking at herself, her eyes were gentle like water, Zhou Yan smiled and said, "Miss Li, my seventh brother wants to see you, he is my brother after all, let's go and meet." ”
"Everything is arranged by His Highness. Li Shuang'er lowered her head and whispered.
Zhou Yan, Li Shuang'er and others came to the deck outside the painting boat, and not far in front of the painting boat, there was another luxury painting boat.
On the deck of the painting boat, there were many people standing, led by a middle-aged man in white, standing with his hands in his hands, his face was thin and handsome, and his eyes were aggressive, so that people did not dare to look at each other easily, this was the seventh prince of His Majesty today, Zhou Xiang.
Zhou Xiang is insidious, good at using stratagem, when Zhou Yan was not born, the seventh highness Zhou Xiang has already begun to prepare to compete for the crown prince, Zhou Xiang thought that he could become a competitor with him, it must be the royal brothers in front of him, but he didn't expect that in the end, his fourteenth imperial brother actually came from behind and became his confidant.
Not to mention that Zhou Yan's cultivation talent is amazing, and he also has a set of winning people's hearts, several capable people around Zhou Xiang have all gone to Zhou Yan now, you say that Zhou Xiang is not angry, he has nothing to do, and he has to find trouble with Zhou Yan.
