Chapter 3: Knocking and Wooing (I)
In the remaining seven states, a total of seven embroidery girls were elected. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ info With the addition of three people from Binh Duong, there were a total of ten young women on the dragon boat.
When they walked out of the attic, Chen Fan'er noticed.
The seven people were faintly divided into two teams. I saw the two women walking in the front, one of them was wrapped in heavy makeup and picturesque; One person is petite and cute, with bright teeth and starry eyes.
To the right of the two teams of women, each followed by a man in an official uniform. Both of them also looked like Confucian students, and after seeing Luo Yi and Hao Lianbai, they both bent down and bowed their hands to show respect.
"Xiaguan has seen two adults." The two said in unison.
"It's hard work." Luo Yi nodded, these two people were the Household Inspectors, subordinate to him and Hao Lianbai. His Majesty the Dragon Emperor attached great importance to the selection of embroidered girls this time, so the household department was almost dispatched, except for Lord Shangshu who stayed in the imperial city, the rest of the officials of the imperial city were all dispatched.
"Congratulations to Lord Luo, Sui Yunzhou has produced a highly talented embroidery girl, it is this Xia Rui girl."
As soon as the inspector finished the introduction, the woman with a demon in the ointment bowed slightly, spoke softly with numbness, and said, "The little woman Xia Rui has seen an adult." β
Luo Yi remained silent and asked, "Oh? The talent is extremely high, but the embroidery heart rating is first-class? β
"Naturally, it is first-class, and it is full of red light, and it lasts for a whole half a column of incense!" The Inspector excitedly described the scene.
Luo Yi nodded with satisfaction, and said in his heart that this year's embroidery girl selection is really talented. Then he looked at the girl who was not tall and said with a smile: "This should be the girl Yan Qinghuan that Master Hao mentioned several times in Feixin." β
"Qing Huan has seen adults." The little girl saluted decently.
"The little girl is amazing." Hao Lianbai stood aside and praised with a smile: "At the age of ten, you can get a first-class evaluation, and you almost made the embroidered heart manifest, do you say that it is a talent!" β
"It's really manufacturable." Luo Yi inadvertently glanced at Chen Fan'er, but he didn't want to show off. If it is learned too early that Chen Fan'er has made Xiuxin manifest and conceived the sin, I am afraid that Lord Shangshu will also be so moved that he wants to grab a meritorious service.
"Lord Luo, I don't know how the two you selected, as well as the Cao girl recommended by the temple, are doing the embroidery test?" Hao Lianbai asked with a smile on his face.
"Miss Cao Xiaoyan is naturally also first-class, and the time for the red light to maintain is not short. The other two are also okay, naturally they are not as good as Miss Yan Qinghuan. β
"Of course, embroidered hearts are revealed! You haven't seen it, it's the first time I've seen it at my age. It is reported that there has not been such a gifted talented woman for at least a hundred years. Miss Yan, don't worry, I will definitely report to the Shang Embroidery Bureau truthfully, and you will definitely be trained by the key at that time! β
"Qinghuan, thank you Lord Hao for your support." This is the third time that Yan Qinghuan has heard Hao Lianbai mention this matter, but the other party is willing to mention it, and she is also willing to admit it, and she will thank her very obediently every time.
Chen Fan'er found that at the beginning of the introduction, Xia Rui had been staring at Yan Qinghuan with hostility. This made her secretly glad that Luo Yi didn't like to brag, otherwise she would most likely be hostile to her peers in the audience.
"Okay, okay, it's all in the clouds, and it's cold outside. Let's go in first, you each get to know each other, and you will be considered colleagues in the future. Luo Yi clapped his hands lightly and motioned for everyone to go into the attic to rest.
"Lord Luo, how long will it take for us to get to the Imperial City?" Yan Qinghuan followed behind Luo Yi and asked very familiarly.
In fact, Xia Rui also followed very closely, but obviously Yan Qinghuan took the lead, and her face became even more gloomy.
"The dragon boat is very fast, and it can be reached in an hour. Miss Yan was the first batch to be picked up on the dragon boat, so she must be tired of staying. Luo Yi had a good impression of Yan Qinghuan, so he teased a few more words.
"It's a little tired, the three-story building is empty, it's not fun." Yan Qinghuan pouted, then looked at Cao Xiaoyan, and said mischievously: "Sister Cao, I heard that you were recommended by the temple, can you tell me about the things in the temple?" β
"Me?" Cao Xiaoyan followed the team, originally in a daze, but unexpectedly, the little girl had already taken her hand and looked at herself with expectant eyes.
"Actually, I ...... too"
"Let's go, let's go to the third floor, it's fun there!" Yan Qinghuan didn't wait for Cao Xiaoyan to explain, and directly pulled her to run directly to the staircase.
Xia Rui's face was even more ugly at this time, she wanted to win over Cao Xiaoyan as soon as possible, after all, this woman had the support of a huge temple behind her.
"This surname is a big ghost. Others may think you're naΓ―ve, but let me see that you're pretending. Hum! Damn, don't think that you can win people over with an innocent skin, and if you enter the imperial city in the future, you will suffer! Xia Rui was guilty in her heart, her eyes moved away from Cao Xiaoyan, and she looked at Chen Fan'er and Nangong Sixteen.
Nangong Sixteen was extremely keen, and when he noticed that his gaze fell, he immediately looked back vigilantly.
At this moment, Luo Yi looked around and said, "Lord Hao, where is General Long, please lead me to meet him." β
"General Long's whereabouts are uncertain, and I only saw him from a distance when I got on the boat. Otherwise, let's look for it together, we should indeed meet us, otherwise it will be rude. β
The other two inspectors nodded in agreement.
The so-called "Dragon General" is the main soul of this dragon boat, patrolling the entire dragon boat in the form of a general wearing armor. His role is to drive and protect the dragon boat.
Moreover, General Long is self-aware and can also cultivate, so the Terrans have always regarded him as a subsidiary of the Dragon Clan.
"Feel free to visit." Hao Lianbai nodded, and walked to the back room with Luo Yi and the two inspectors.
Xia Rui saw that a few adults were walking away, so she smiled coldly and slowly approached Nangong Sixteen.
"Sister Nangong, let's also go to visit." Chen Fan'er had already noticed the abnormality, and like Yan Qinghuan, he immediately grabbed Nangong Sixteen's hand and trotted towards the staircase.
Nangong Sixteen was slightly startled, but did not object, and went upstairs with Chen Fan'er.
"Hide? Hidden! Hum! Xia Rui glanced at the two attendants behind her, and the two women immediately ran timidly in the other direction, and she herself slowly ascended the stairs.
"Fan'er, don't you want to visit, what can you see clearly if you walk so fast?" Nangong Sixteen has been taken by Chen Fan'er for a long time, and he has been hiding in the middle of the way, and at this moment he is in an empty small room.
Chen Fan'er took a breath lightly and said with a wry smile: "That Xia Rui is not good, I don't want you to conflict with her, sister." β
"I'm not afraid. She can't hurt me. Nangong Sixteen's eyes were cold, and he replied confidently.
"I definitely don't dare to hurt you, I'm afraid it's some beating, or wooing. You see that just a few people have been faintly divided into two factions, and they have a lot of means to come to this Xia Rui girl. Chen Fan'er explained.
"Hmph. I went to the Imperial City to learn embroidery, and I didn't have time to play with them! Nangong Sixteen is a straight person, she doesn't know some of the unspoken rules of the human race, and she follows the cloud demon mother all the year round, and only lets her learn one truth: "Strength hits everything!" β
Chen Fan'er smiled bitterly and sighed, still wanting to explain something, but heard the sound of footsteps approaching. (To be continued.) )
