Chapter 274: The Ring
Yan Lie looked in the direction from which the voice came, and it turned out to be Qinghe. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
I don't know what's going on in the city, it's blocked here.
Qinghe worked hard all the way, but it still took nearly a stick of incense to squeeze in front of Yan Lie.
At this time, Yan Mingde also came to the carriage.
"Second son, you can be counted back!" When Qinghe saw them, he sighed, "Hurry up, hurry up and go into the city!" ā
Yan Ning heard Qinghe's voice and couldn't help but move to the car door.
Zhao Shou was in front of Yan Ning, poking his head out of the carriage, "Qinghe, are you still recruiting relatives?" ā
Qinghe just saw that Yan Ning was also in the car, and he was happily growing his mouth to speak.
When Zhao Shou's question came out, he choked on a mouthful of saliva, choked on coughing, waved his hand again and again, and was speechless for a while.
Finally stopped coughing, his eyes widened and said, "Father-in-law Zhaoshou, don't talk nonsense." "What do you mean that the prince is still recruiting relatives? Why does this sound so strange?
He shouted, and then cried at Yan Ning with a sad face, "Miss Yan, you have to help our prince." Those women are scared to death. ā
Recruiting relatives?
Scary?
Since Yan Ning was reborn, it is rare to be a little dumbfounded, which one is this? Is it the excitement that Zhao Shou said just now?
At this time, the carriage had already entered the north city gate, and the generals of the Yan family opened the way in front. The people who were watching the excitement heard that General Yan's father and son had returned to Beijing, and they turned to watch the Yan family.
Everyone was divided on both sides of the street, discussing Yan Mingde's victory this time, and at the same time asking who the group of female dependents who followed behind.
There are hundreds of people in the Yan family, and there are hundreds of people in the Lin family, even the master and the minions, which looks quite spectacular.
There are well-informed people, speaking of Lin Tianhu's family members returning to Beijing with the Yan family's father and son, these female dependents must be the daughters of the Lin family.
Lin Tianhu has been rumored to be in the capital recently, and when he heard that it was his daughter, the onlookers couldn't help but point and discuss.
Some people also joked: "I heard that there are many daughters of the Lin family, are they also here for the son?" ā
Mrs. Ma was ashamed and annoyed, she had already returned to the capital anyway, and would rather take a detour than walk with Yan Mingde's group.
After entering the North City Gate, they made a detour to the Lin Mansion.
Chen Shilang wanted to rush back to the Ministry of Rites to hand over the errand, and he also had to return to Emperor Yuan, so he also left first.
Yan Mingde and Yan Lie rode horses, Yan Ning sat in a carriage, and when a group of people came to the side of the courtyard of Nanwangfu in Beidajie Town, they saw that there was a high platform standing there.
Zhennan Wangfu has a set of courtyards in the capital, and Chu Mo is preparing to live in Beijing for a long time this time, so he naturally packs it out to live here.
And the high platform in front of the courtyard of the Zhennan Wangfu is also interesting, no wonder there are so many onlookers.
This ring looks new, and it is obvious that it has just been erected.
Yan Mingde and Yan Lie opened their mouths in surprise when they saw the four big characters on the high platform.
"This ...... What is it? Yan Mingde pointed to the four big characters, for fear that he would be dazzled.
Yan Lie closed his eyes and opened his eyes again, and read "Recruiting Relatives by Comparison" word by word, and couldn't help laughing after reading it.
It turns out that this high platform turned out to be a ring!
When Yan Ning heard the words "Recruiting Relatives", he also poked his head out in surprise and looked over.
Sure enough, the ring actually built two floors, the lower floor for cars and horses to park, the upper floor outside the left and right sides of the test table, and the inner is a gauze tent compartment.
On the girder in the middle of the ring, there is a plaque with four gilded characters of "Recruiting Relatives by Trying", Yan Ning looked at the handwriting, it seemed to be the words of Emperor Yuan?
On both sides of the plaque, there are still two lines of words, which are Chu Mo's handwriting.
On the left side is written: Wen is also fine, martial arts is also fine, as long as you can win
On the right side is written: You applaud, she applauds, I will be fine
This meaning is really straightforward, one point scoundrel, nine points domineering.
"Qinghe, what are you doing here?" Yan Ning asked with some amusement.
In the capital, there have been martial arts competitions to recruit relatives, there are hydrangea throwing to choose sons-in-law, and there are also gold list titles to catch sons-in-law, but these people are all women.
Chu Mo is a son of the world, and he came to the ring to recruit relatives and choose a wife? No wonder there are so many people, this is really a once-in-a-century hilarity.
"Miss Yan, isn't there no way, my family had to make a competition to recruit relatives. However, you see that my family has written clearly, regardless of whether she wins or loses, he says that it is good to be good. "Qinghe knows the thoughts of his son, of course, he wants to clarify it for the prince in a vague way.
Yan Mingde and Yan Lie didn't expect that "I'll be fine" actually meant something like this, isn't this a trick to the daughters of all families to play?
However, there are many ordinary green cloth carriages parked under the ring.
"Are those participating in the competition?" Yan Ning pointed to the girls under the steps on the left.
"Yes, these people who can't see their identities are all here to participate in Wenbi. The girl who came down from your stand was the one who lost and got off the stage. ā
Yan Ning looked at Qinghe's fingers, and sure enough, a girl was walking down the stage, with a black scarf, a white veil under the scarf, a silver cloak to wrap the figure, and the maid next to her was also dressed in the same way, and she definitely couldn't tell which daughter this was.
The girls on Wubi's side are all wearing strong suits. Also, you can't do it with a bib.
Now it seems that there has just been a stop, and the competition tables on both sides of the civil and military sides are empty. A girl in a black suit, sitting on a chair in the middle of the two test benches, had clearly won the challenge.
Yan Ning looked carefully, the girl looked good, but her face was cold, and she didn't look like a daughter, but like a person from the rivers and lakes.
Chu Mo saw Yan Ning and his party on the stage, and couldn't help but stand up, looking at the audience with bright eyes.
There seemed to be a person sitting in the curtain behind it, but I couldn't tell who it was.
Chu Mo's eyes stared at Yan Ning lively, Yan Ning came into contact with his gaze, and was stunned for a moment, does she want to go on stage to compete?
There were passers-by on the side, who recognized it as Yan Ning's, and they were also whispering.
"That's the girl of the Yan family."
"yes, I don't know who is more powerful, she or the girl on stage."
"The one on the stage has refused to get down for the past few days, and he has sat there and taken root."
"Maybe the girl on the stage is amazing, but it's a Jianghu person, I heard that the Jianghu is famous."
Yan Mingde heard the words of passers-by, and said to Yan Ning with a smile: "Ning'er, if you want to compete on stage, my father thinks you will definitely win." ā
Yan Lie glanced at the woman twice, and nodded, "That's it, Ning'er, you definitely won't lose to her." ā
It's not a question of winning or losing, it's a question of whether you want to participate in the recruitment! Yan Ning was a little speechless about his father and brother only staring at whether he could win.
If he came to power, then Emperor Yuan would immediately know that the Yan family intended to marry the Zhennan Palace, would this make Emperor Yuan even more jealous of the Yan family?
If she didn't go up and look at Chu Mo's expectant gaze, did she really want him to marry these women? (To be continued.) )
