The center of the inner city of Luoyang is the emperor's palace in Luoyang, Longxiang Palace, close to the majestic palace distributed with large and small nobles and royal children's mansions, although not as magnificent as the palace, there is also a kind of style, the mansion can rely on the palace, itself is also a symbol of status, at this moment in the open space outside the gate of the high mansion, the big red ring is particularly eye-catching, the fluttering banner on the competition to recruit relatives four words dazzling, from all over the news rushed to the noble children have already surrounded this place, in a corner outside the crowd, A figure dressed in brocade clothes and jade belts clenched his fists, his eyes full of anger and unwillingness.

"Childe." The little girl who was accompanying her looked at her son-in-law's appearance, and her eyes were full of worry: "Miss Gao obviously knows that her son has never practiced martial arts, but she wants to hold this Laoshizi martial arts competition to recruit relatives, isn't this deliberately embarrassing the son." The tone was full of revenge for his son-in-law.

"She just wants to tell me that she would rather use this method to find a husband she has never met than marry me." The boy in brocade gritted his teeth and said, "I want to see what kind of person she can choose with such a method." ”

"Miss, I heard that the children of unmarried nobles from all over the world have gathered in Luoyang, and the competition is about to start, do you want to watch?" Ping'er looked at the woman in red who was looking at the railing, and carefully placed the melons and fruits in her hand on the coffee table.

The woman in red turned around, only to see that she was dressed in a big red gauze dress, with intricate peony flowers embroidered with gold thread on her clothes, her skin was like clotted fat, her face was like white jade, her eyes were like containing autumn water, her lips were not dotted and vermilion, and her face was only smeared with a thin layer of rouge, and her face was as delicate as a hibiscus flower. The beauty looked calm at the moment, as if the person who was going to choose a husband was not herself: "We don't have to worry about the competition to recruit relatives, my father and brother will take care of it." ”

"How can their eldest man understand the thoughts of his daughter's family, after all, he is Miss's future husband, and Miss should go and see it in person." Ping'er persuaded, glanced at her own young lady, and lamented: "Actually, I think it's good for Miss to marry Wang Gongzi, he likes Miss so much, Miss has known him since she was a child, and it's not too much to say a word about childhood sweethearts, why bother to do this kind of recruitment?" ”

"Shut up." Gao Yue listened to her words, and there was a hint of anger on her face, "What do you know?" It is precisely because she is too familiar that she knows very well that he is not the person she wants, and none of them will be happy if they are barely together, he is a friend she values very much, and she doesn't want to become a resentful couple in the future, and now he hates her, or resents her, after a long time, she thinks he will always understand.

"Yes, Ping'er knows that she is wrong, miss, Ping'er will serve you to go out, maybe this competition can find the person you like." Ping'er saw that she had annoyed Gao Yue, and hurriedly admitted her mistake sincerely.

Gao Yue sighed, I like someone, I hope I can find it.

The competition ring has long been surrounded by water, they saw that the subordinates put a giant screen embroidered with a peacock on the ring, their faces were full of doubts, Gao Haotian saw everyone's expressions on the main seat in the distance, the corners of his mouth flashed a smile, his sister is extremely smart, I don't know if I can choose a future brother-in-law in this way, I hope everything goes well, and it is not in vain for him and his father's hard work.

Seeing that the auspicious time had come, Gao Haotian got up and invited his father Gao Pu out.

Gao Pu slowly walked to the front of the stage and said loudly to everyone in the audience: "Everyone knows that the old man only has Gao Yue's daughter, and he has always been worried about her marriage. ”

"A peacock is so big, although it is far away, isn't it easy for people who practice martial arts to shoot it? Isn't a high university scholar like this, not playing with his beloved daughter's marriage? Wang Ke sat on the seat of the witness, and gritted his teeth when he talked about those who practiced martial arts, who did not know that this martial arts competition was used to reject his son's proposal.

"Lord Wang laughed, the old man hasn't finished speaking, of course, it's not just to shoot the peacock, there are two marks drawn by my daughter herself behind this screen, that is to say, each son has two chances, shoot the position of the little girl's mark, that is the winner of this competition." Gao Pu touched his beard and said slowly.

"Can ordinary nobles also participate?" The handsome-looking son under the ring said cautiously.

"Yes, all sons, please go to the Gao family's housekeeper to report, and the children will come to the stage one by one according to the order in which they report." Gao Pu saw that the sons under the ring ran to the case where the butler was, and turned around and walked towards the main seat.

"Childe, let's go report it quickly." Qin Luo watched the other sons go to the housekeeper, but his own one stared at the screen in a daze, and couldn't help urging.

"No hurry, wait." The man in white stood beside him as if no one was around, habitually touching the jade pendant on his waist, and a pair of Danfeng eyes looked at the screen above the ring deeply, thoughtfully.

"Hey, I said son, when we left Chang'an, Mrs. told me that this proposal is very important, and there is no room for mistakes, if you don't agree to go back in the end, I will be scolded again, anyway, Mrs. hurts the son and is reluctant to scold? Childe does not do anything well, and those who are scolded and punished are small. Qin Luo said bitterly.

The man in white looked at Qin Luo's crying and mourning appearance, and couldn't help but quip: "You have no confidence in me like this." ”

Qin Luo looked at him and said with a bitter face: "I naturally have confidence in Gongzi's bow technique, but now I don't even know where to shoot, what is the use of the bow technique?" ”

"It's because I don't know that I can't act rashly." The man in white smiled indifferently, turned his gaze back to the screen, and after a while, he seemed to think of something, the corners of his mouth were confidently hooked, and he said to Qin Luo on the side: "Let's go, go to the housekeeper." ”

********************

Yan Xining and Yan Feng walked out of the Hutchison Medical Hall, the two walked across the East Stone Bridge and came to the gate of Jianchun Gate.

The streets of the inner city are all paved with marble, the streets are lined with high gate compounds, red walls and tiles, occasionally you can see the full spring color sticking out from the walls, most of the pedestrians come and go brightly dressed, only a few Han people hurry past them, the inner city and the outer Guocheng are clearly two completely different worlds.

"Tidal condensation." Yan Feng said with some embarrassment: "The things in the inner city are not something we can buy, we can only take a look." ”

"It's okay, I'll just take a look." Xi Ning smiled and relieved Yan Feng, this was not the place they should stay in the first place.

Xi Ning and Yan Feng walked forward slowly, the splendid Longxiang Palace gradually appeared in front of their eyes, the palace gate of Longxiang Palace is called Chengde Gate, majestic atmosphere, the door is carved with lifelike dragon patterns, the city wall stands high on both sides of the palace gate, and the corner of the eaves in the palace can be faintly seen.

"Dad, is this the palace you built three years ago?" Yan Xining asked softly.

"Yes, this palace is very big, we thought it would take at least three years to build it, but it was built in one year." Yan Feng sighed, he didn't tell Yan Xi Ning the suffering, it was built in a year, it was a gorgeous pile of countless corpses, and only four or five people who went home alive with him in the same tent, if he didn't know how to do some medicine, maybe even fewer people would survive, and the whipping and blood and tears on the construction site were secrets that he couldn't forget in his life.

"It's beautiful." Yan Xining couldn't help but sigh.

"yes, it's beautiful." Yan Feng muttered and repeated.

"What are you two sneaking up on at the gate of Chengde?" Their stop was spotted by the soldiers guarding the door, and one of the soldiers stepped forward to say viciously.

"This official, my daughter's first time in Luoyang, I just took her to see her for a long time, and we will leave immediately." Yan Feng has a good voice and a good airway.

"Why don't you get out of here, look at your poor and sour appearance, and you still have a lot of knowledge? Phew. The soldier said in a contemptuous tone.

"You ......" Yan Xining's fire rushed up suddenly, and Yan Feng pulled back in time, "Xining, don't make trouble, just endure it." ”

Yan Xining's nose was sour when she heard this: "Dad, they are all dog-eyed things that look down on people." ”

"Why bother to meet them in general, let's go and see other places." Yan Feng persuaded softly, if it was usual, he would have been accustomed to such sarcasm for a long time, and he didn't feel anything, but after all, Yan Xining was the first time to encounter this kind of thing, and he felt a little uncomfortable when he saw his daughter being wronged.

"Let's go quickly, the competition may have started, it's all because you didn't wake me up earlier, causing me to oversleep, and I don't know who has the blessing to marry Miss Gao." The two aristocratic sons hurriedly walked past Yan Feng's father and daughter.

Yan Xining was distracted by their words, forgetting Fang Cai's unhappiness, and said curiously: "What kind of martial arts competition to recruit relatives?" What Miss Gao? ”

Yan Feng thought about it, he came to Luoyang before and talked about the Gao family's martial arts competition and recruiting relatives, but now that he thinks about it, it seems to be today. Yan Feng told Xi Ning about this, and Yan Xi Ning's eyes lit up after hearing this: "Dad, let's go and see it, okay?" "She has only watched martial arts competitions on TV, and she hasn't seen the real version yet.

Yan Feng thought about taking her into the inner city to see the strangeness, but when he saw that his daughter forgot about Fang Cai's unhappiness and became happy, he was naturally willing to take her to join in the excitement, he nodded, and led Yan Xining to the Gao family's mansion.

When Yan Feng and Yan Xi Ning arrived, the ring was already full of people, most of them were children of the nobles of the family, and occasionally a few children of the Han clan could be seen joining in the fun, Xi Ning saw that the people in front of him blocked their sight, and said to Yan Feng: "Dad, I'll squeeze in front to take a look." ”

Yan Feng was about to say something, but seeing that Xi Ning had already squeezed into the crowd and couldn't see his figure, he frowned, this girl, sometimes she doesn't act like a girl, where is there a daughter's family squeezing into the pile of men, now there are many people here, he doesn't want Yan Xining to be small enough to squeeze into the crowd, so he can only wait here for someone to disperse and then look for her.

Yan Xining flashed left and right, with her thin figure, she successfully passed through the crowd and squeezed into the first row, she gasped, and heard the man next to her shouting loudly: "Xue Gongzi, if you want to shoot, shoot quickly, see how long you have been standing there, we are still waiting to compare." ”

Yan Xi stared at the ring and saw a purple-robed man holding a bow and arrow, turned his head after listening to the man's words, glared at him viciously, and said angrily: "Shoot, shoot, what are you anxious about?" After saying that, he pulled the bow to the full moon with all his strength, and his face turned red, and he only heard a "whoosh" sound, and the arrow flew out of the string and flew two or three feet away from the screen.

Yan Xining was stunned below, the aristocratic sons who would not come to participate in the competition to recruit relatives are all like this, so it is better to engage in Biwen recruiting relatives, what is the point of seeing it like this.

Xue Gongzi looked at his masterpiece, stunned for a while, Gao Haotian coughed, and said loudly: "Xue Gongzi's first arrow missed the screen, do you want to shoot the second one?" ”

Laughter erupted from under the ring, Xue Gongzi felt that his face was gloomy, and he was on fire: "Master is not comparable, you can earn it slowly." After saying that, he threw his bow and arrow and jumped out of the ring.
