When Fan Li entered the door, he saw Xi Shi in a moon-white dress who was about to get up, so he hurriedly took two steps over and pressed her, "Sister Yiguang, don't get up, you are recovering from a serious illness, and you still need to cultivate well, don't be so polite!"

"Brother Young Uncle came to see our sisters, how can we be rude!" Fan Li, the word Young Uncle. The original owner is usually very affectionate to her, and usually calls each other words. Xi Shi endured the cold in his heart, and imitated the tone of the original master in his memory and pretended to be shy. After all, it's someone else's territory, so he can't be suspicious.

"Why should my sister be so polite! You and Dan'er are like my family. Fan Li bought medicine for Xi Shi last time and came back and was stopped by his subordinates, and he was still a little puzzled in his heart, he was busy these days, and he didn't see Xi Shi for a few days. Shaking the fan in his hand, he said with a smug face: "I came to see my two sisters today, but I have two good news to tell you." First, tomorrow the king will meet his two sisters. The two younger sisters are beautiful and talented, and they will definitely be selected by the king and win the first place in the national beauty pageant. With that, he looked at the two of them and waited for their reactions.

Xi Shi and Zheng Dan looked overjoyed as expected. Zheng Dan said happily: "If this is the case, I will thank Gongzi for his kindness." Xi Shi's face was full of joy, and he turned to pinch the placket of his clothes, and hesitated: "If you are chosen by the king, will you have to live in the palace?" There was a trace of worry in her eyes, and she made Fan Li and Zheng Dan think that she was worried that she would not be able to see Fan Li after entering the palace.

Fan Li stood in front of Xi Shi, his eyes were gentle and seemed to be dripping water, "Sister, rest assured, after the selection of the palace candidates, Chang Le Si will be taught by the Hundred Divisions, and I will take care of you." ”

The ghost was worried, and Xi Shi said silently. The people selected this time were all trained as spies, and naturally they would not enter the palace and be managed by the queen. Fan Li single-handedly led this espionage operation, so naturally he trained it. The small worry I just expressed was just to show my trust and dependence on him.

Shih Tzu nodded meekly. Fan Li was very satisfied with Xi Shi's expression. Who doesn't like a beauty? Not to mention a beauty with the color of a captivating city. Although Fan Li is the prime minister of the Yue country, he is a typical businessman in his bones, and he has to calculate the gains and losses of interests in everything. He invested in Goujian not because of patriotism, but to help the monarch in distress, to accept the interests of the country, and to fulfill the name of a hundred generations. So no matter how good Xi Shi and Zheng Dan are, he will send them all out to be chess pieces. And these two people have tasted □□ for the first time, and they have a lot of heart for themselves, which is really a good weapon to control them.

When Zheng Dan saw this scene, his eyes were a little lonely, and he was quickly restrained by her. Didn't she decide a long time ago not to get involved? She had no mother since she was a child, and was raised by her father. But because of his outstanding appearance, he couldn't make friends. It was easy to meet Sister Xi Shi, and the two got along closer than sisters, but they fell in love with the same person. She has always been accustomed to taking care of Xi Shi, how can she bear to let her sisters centrifuge for this? That's why she has always been polite to Fan Li, insisting on calling him "Fan Gongzi", refusing to call him "Young Uncle" like Xi Shi, and helping them create opportunities to get along, just for fear of falling deeper and deeper. It's better for one person to be in pain than all three, right?

Zheng Dan's loss was keenly captured by Fan Li. However, he remained silent and continued: "The second good news is that I have sent someone to pick up both of your parents, and we will be in Kyoto in about half a month. When the time comes, let them live in my house and I will take care of them personally. My aunts and uncles are old, and you are the only child. Everywhere you go, they're worried. Wouldn't you be happy to see your family often in Kyoto?" and turned to Xi Shi again, and said with pity: "Sister Yiguang will no longer faint because she is too worried and misses her relatives." ”

Xi Shi was about to vomit to death, and he had to make a look of gratitude and tears. Fan Li is really thoughtful and ruthless. Taking care of their parents is just an excuse, and the real purpose is to control the two of them. If the two of them are the slightest bit disobedient, Shih Tzu has no doubt that their parents will immediately become a tool to threaten them, and care will immediately become a pinch. In this way, even if they want to have any different intentions in Wu Kingdom in the future, they will not dare.

Zheng Dan was really moved. She pulled Xi Shi and bowed deeply to Fan Li, "Childe thinks about us like this, our sisters can't repay us, please accept our worship!"

"The two sisters must not do this, this is what I should do!" Fan Li hurriedly helped the two of them up. Enjoying the grateful eyes of the two beauties, Fan Li was extremely useful in his heart.

"Dressed and dressed, I'm ready for my two younger sisters. The two younger sisters have a good rest today, and tomorrow they will meet the king in the best condition, and they will definitely be able to make a splash!"

Fan Li asked his subordinates to put everything in the house, sat down for a while and left.

Xi Shi pretended to be weak and did not send him.

Zheng Dan sent Fan Li to the door. Fan Li whispered to her before leaving: "Uncle has always had asthma, and I have told people to pay more attention on the way. I have hired a famous doctor in Kyoto who has a lot of experience in treating asthma. When my uncle enters Kyoto, he will be properly healed, so you don't have to worry!"

Say goodbye and leave.

"Childe!" Zheng Dan called out to Fan Li, saw him stop, turned around, hesitated for a while, just made a gesture, and said softly: "Thank you, Childe!"

I didn't expect Childe to be so careful, and even thought of this for her. Zheng Dan was grateful, and a trace of sweetness surged in his heart, followed by melancholy. It's a pity that our sisters fell in love with the same person......

Fan Li is shrewd and sophisticated, has read countless people, looking at Zheng Dan's complicated expression, I don't know what she is thinking in my heart. nodded, and waved his sleeves away.

Since Zheng Dan decided to secretly admire herself, let her have a crush. Originally, two beauties get along day and night, to make them both fall in love with themselves deeply, and be willing to go to the soup for themselves, it is not enough to be considerate and treat each other equally, it is easy to have contradictions, not to mention, and it may also make both people not invest enough. Zheng Dan decided to restrain his feelings and promote himself and Xi Shi, which is a good thing.

How can the girl's feelings be taken back? On the surface, he and Xi Shi are frequent, making a deep and meaningful appearance, Zheng Dan must feel some loss and grievance. I pretended to be inadvertently more considerate and concerned about Zheng Dan, and always gave her a glimmer of hope, not worrying that she was not moved. It's so good to hold the hearts of two people tightly in such a way both openly and secretly!

The solemn hall is only black and red, and all the decorations are simple and simple. Goujian, the king of Yue, sat upright on the king's chair.

Since being defeated by the Wu State, Gou Jian had no choice but to surrender in order to save the Yue State, proclaimed himself the country of slaves, and was willing to pull a cart for his husband. Later, he bribed the minister and was pardoned and returned to the Yue Kingdom. In order to always remember the insults he had suffered, Gou Jian removed all the luxurious decorative utensils in the palace, leaving only the necessary things, cutting more than half of the palace people, and hanging a bitter gall in the dormitory, tasting the bitter taste at every meal, reminding himself not to forget the suffering and shameful experience in the state of Wu.

I have to say that Gou Jian is indeed a generation of heroes. He was clothed in coarse cloth every day, ate only coarse grains, and often worked with the people to plow the fields and sow seeds. He also ordered the queen to lead women to raise silkworms and weave cloth and develop production. Gou Jian husband and wife share weal and woe with the people, which has inspired the whole country to work together and work hard. Gou Jian was able to reasonably adopt the minister's construction and use many schemes, and later destroyed Wu Xue in one fell swoop.

Now Gou Jian's eyes were dark, staring at the ten beauties in front of the hall. The beauties are dressed in various colors, slim and elegant, looking forward to the brilliance, and they still look beautiful in such a simple hall.

These women are the most beautiful women selected □□ by the Yue Kingdom, but they all have to be sent to the Wu Kingdom.

The beauties and others were oblivious to the king's thoughts. According to the arrangement of the ceremonial officer, they went to the front one by one to show their talents.

Xi Shi and Zheng Dan were wearing the clothes prepared by Fan Li. Xi Shi wore a set of Hunan concubine-colored embroidered gold thread wrapped begonia skirt, covered with a layer of white light yarn, combed the flying bun, inserted a broken jade moon hairpin on his head, and a blue gem on his forehead. Gently dancing in the sky, like a flowing glow flying, the nine-day fairy wants to fly away from the world, and the temperament is pure and dusty, and adds a noble color.

Zheng Dan is wearing a set of crimson embroidered silver thread peony dress, combed in a cloud bun, decorated with ruby broken diamonds and tassels, looking graceful, charming, bright and moving. Gently play the pipa, the throat is clear and elegant, touching the heartstrings, and the beam is endless.

When the two finished their performances, they retreated to the group and waited for the others to perform.

Those who can come here are naturally all excellent people in color and art. Xi Shi and Zheng Dan's families are poor, and they may not be comparable to others in singing and dancing. However, because of their poor family background, they are better controlled, so they are destined to come out on top. And Xi Shi is younger and easier to control, so the title of the first beauty in Yue is destined to fall to her.

Gou Jian's eagle-like gaze fell on Xi Shi and Zheng Dan. Their unparalleled faces have a hint of innocence and ignorance.

What a pair of unpolished beauties! Such a color and temperament are also easy for the husband to let down his guard and be pampered with confidence.

Of course, this is not the first time Gou Jian has known about them. As early as before, Fan Li had reported in detail to himself about the family background, temperament, talents, and virtues of these women, as well as their portraits, and secretly determined the ten people who met the most requirements, as well as the final ranking. However, after meeting, he was still amazed, and a trace of greed and ferocity flashed in his gloomy eyes.

Sooner or later, these people will be their own, and they will only sing and dance in their own bedrooms!

Of course, everyone will not know about Gou Jian's psychological activities.

After the performance, all the women waited in the outer hall. Within a few hours, eunuchs came out to report their rankings. Xi Shi really topped the list, followed by Zheng Dan. Xi Shi's heart was clear.
