Chapter 41: The Race of Ten People

Today's sunlight is particularly dazzling, and the entire Sifang Holy City presents a peaceful atmosphere, and all things grow in harmony and coexist, showing a rare and lush scene.

"Yunyan, let's go!" Flowey was a little excited, but also a little uneasy.

"Well, let's go!"

"I'm going to announce the list of ten candidates in a moment, so I'm so excited!"

"Really, why didn't I feel so excited?" Yun Yan was really not excited, on the contrary, there was a trace of uneasiness in his heart for some reason, and he didn't know what was going on.

"Yun Yan, I think you will definitely be able to enter the top ten!" Huahua is very sure.

"Yes, yes!" Others chimed in.

"How can you be so sure!"

"Who doesn't know that the concubine Niangniang called you to the palace to accompany you for a period of time before!" There was a lot of talking.

"It's been a long time since that time!" Yun Yan didn't expect that after such a long time had passed since this incident, someone still turned it over and talked about it.

"Although it's been a while, I heard that Concubine Jing likes you very much!" The person who spoke was jealous and a little envious.

"Actually, Concubine Jing is very good!"

"That's it! Let's go, let's go and hear the results so we don't have to guess! ”

"Hmm!"

"I heard that the Dragon Emperor is also here today, and I will also meet with the candidate who was elected!" Nan Rongcai whispered.

"Dragon Emperor!" Yun Yan's heart suddenly became nervous, he had seen it before, but he had watched it from afar, even if he went to the palace for a while later, but he had never seen it. Why could he suddenly be nervous, Yun Yan couldn't figure it out.

"Then we'll have to behave!"

"Yun Yan, what's wrong with you?"

"Oh, it's okay, let's go quickly, don't miss the hour!"

"Hmm!"

As the voice of the male attendant sounded, the twenty candidate women entered the main hall from the outside in turn. After saluting, Concubine Shu spoke.

"Yesterday was the first selection, and ten have been selected, I hope to prepare well next, the assessment of the Long family is not over yet!" After speaking, she handed the list to the palace maid on the side, "Read it out!" ”

"Yes!"

The palace maid's voice was loud, and the names came out of her mouth one by one.

"I was also chosen, although it was the tenth!" Yun Yan was a little self-deprecating in her heart, she secretly glanced at Concubine Jing, just looking at her with a smile in her eyes. Yun Yan understood in her heart, this must be strongly recommended by Concubine Jing, she is very satisfied with herself!

"Great!" The first one to be selected was Yiyang, whose face couldn't hide her pride and confidence.

Ten people stayed, and another ten were taken away by a waitress. Although they were not selected, the dragons would arrange a satisfactory marriage for them.

"Next is the time to rest and prepare, and what we want to assess today is qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, which is in charge of Xi Guifei Niangniang."

"Yes!" The ten women replied in unison.

The crowd dispersed, and at the beginning of the afternoon, the chamberlains gathered them together.

"Sisters, the first session of the afternoon is a musical instrument, everyone must perform well!"

"It's natural!" Yiyang said.

"Sister doesn't know, the Dragon Emperor likes vocal music, so in today's first scene, the Dragon Emperor will also be there!" The waiter explained softly.

"So?!" The crowd was amazed and delighted.

"Well, so, the concubine asked me to remind you sisters that you must behave well!"

"The concubine also has a heart." Yun Yan said with emotion.

Ten people also gave the waiter some bounty to varying degrees, thanking him for the reminder.

"Yun Yan, don't all dragons like music?" Flowey didn't understand.

"Yes, it is said that because the dragon clan was originally irritable, but the music was originally soft and permeated, and because of this, the dragon clan gradually converged its own anger under the influence of music, and became like humans with their own seven emotions and six desires, and was no longer called a beast." Yun Yan patiently explained.

"Oh, that's right, so the dragons like music for edification?"

"Sort of, but music cultivates sentiment to help the body and mind improve, and it's also a good thing for the dragon clan!"

"It's still like this, Yun Yan knows a lot!"

"Hee-hee, it's all common sense!"

"Okay, but you know a lot!"

In the first competition, ten people can choose the instrument they are good at and play a song. Yiyang chose the waist drum, Nan Rongcai chose the pipa, Yunyan chose the flute, Huahua chose the gonghou, and everyone chose the instrument they were best at. Start a new round of competition according to the ranking of the previous game.

Soon the game began, Yiyang's figure is very good, with the waist drum is simply a beauty, not only several other women, the surrounding people are caught in the passionate sound of Yiyang's waist drum, her moving waist, beautiful dancing, provoked the people present to applaud constantly. When Yiyang ended, it was still lingering for a long time. Followed by Nan Rongcai, her pipa is also a must, not inferior to Yiyang's waist drum, if Yiyang is exotic, then Nanrong is the national style.

Everyone has their own characteristics, and the cheers of the people present continued, and Yun Yan was the last in line, sitting respectfully, waiting for him to play. The dragon family originally loved music, and the Dragon Emperor was even more enthusiastic, he didn't need to participate too much in the selection of concubines, and he was the only one who would come when the prince and the second prince chose concubines before. Each woman played with her own characteristics, which made the Dragon Emperor very satisfied. The first five have finished performing, and it's time for a break.

"There are five more, I don't know what instrument will be played next?" The Dragon Emperor asked.

"Back to the Dragon Emperor, they are still waiting, everyone plays differently, you can feast your ears again after a little rest!" The Empress spoke.

"These five have already feasted the emperor's ears, I don't know what wonderful performances the other five will have!"

"They are all everyone's children, each with their own merits."

"Are they all waiting? I can't wait! "The Dragon Emperor is very happy.

"Well, over there!"

Following the direction of the emperor's gaze, the Dragon Emperor also glanced at the five candidates behind him, and suddenly his gaze stayed on a woman, in a goose-yellow outfit, laughing at the people around him, although he couldn't hear what he was talking about, but the smile was so charming, this was none other than Yun Yan.

Yun Yan was chatting with Huahua, and she was showing Huahua her flute, which her brother had made for her with his own hands, and her name was engraved on it.

"Your brother is so good, I also wish I had a good brother!" Flowey was very envious.

"yes, I remember you didn't have a younger brother?"

"Yes, but people want a brother, just like your brother!"

"You can be a good sister and make your brother proud!"

"yes!"

"Do you know, I used to love your brother very much, but I never dared to show my heart!"

"Really? I guessed it a long time ago, but what my brother has always liked is his sister-in-law, which is also something that can't be done! ”

"Also, I love Brother Yunyi's infatuation and dedication, alas, it seems that I will never have a chance to marry into the Murong family in my life!"

"It's okay, but we're still good friends!"

"Yes, can I go to your house often?"

"Yes, but don't beat my brother again!"

"Okay, no problem!"

The laughter of the two girls came from time to time, Xi'er, the Dragon Emperor was a little stunned in his heart, but he quickly adjusted his expression.

"It's almost time to start, right?" The emperor asked the people around her.

"Yes!"

"Hmm!"

The next four people's performances Dragon Emperor didn't pay attention at all, he had been waiting for Yun Yan to appear. When Yun Yan came on the field, his whole eyes lit up, but the others didn't notice anything unusual, but Xi Guifei saw the difference, in fact, Xi Guifei found out when she saw Yun Yan for the first time, she was so similar to herself when she was young, and she had a trace of worry and worry in her heart.

Yun Yan stood in the middle in a yellow dress, and began to play after saluting, this is a light and lively serenade, telling about the happy time of a couple of men and women dating, with the harmony of the musicians, the whole hall seems to be beating with joyful notes, and also jumps to everyone's heart, especially the Dragon Emperor. He looked most carefully, and the breeze wore through the hall, and she lifted her dress, and her hair, and a mischievous strand of hair ran to the other side of her cheek, and she looked very cute. Her fingers are slender and white, her whole face is full of youthful vigor and liveliness, her eyes are sometimes lowered, her fingers are beating, and she closes her eyes from time to time, enjoying this happy time.

At the end of the song, the hall was quiet at first, and then bursts of applause rang out, which was an affirmation of Yun Yan. The Dragon Emperor was also very tempted, and suddenly he had a bold idea, he wanted to keep Yun Yan, although it seemed a bit ridiculous. Concubine Xi was aware of the change in the Dragon Emperor, but in her opinion, this was to choose a concubine for her son, and he should leave Yun Yan until the end to let her enter the Long family.

The scene of the ten-man competition soon spread to the various palaces.

"How is Miss Nanrong?" The crown princess asked with concern.

"The performance is very good, the Dragon Emperor is very happy, I like it very much!" The maid replied.

"Then I'm relieved, by the way, how are the others doing?"

"Other people's words, if you want to say that the most brilliant is the Yiyang girl, they all say that she is the princess of Saiwai!"

"Princess?! It's just a bunch of barbarians! The crown princess was very angry, she didn't expect that the Dragon Emperor would let people from the outer regions run for election, which completely disrupted her plans.

"And how are the others doing?" The crown princess was not very reassured.

"The others are okay, it's just that Murong Yunyan also made the Dragon Emperor care a lot this time!"

"Murong Yunyan?" The crown princess is very strange, logically speaking, she is not the most beautiful, and she is relatively young, and she is not yet grown up at all.

"Why do you care?"

"It is said that the Dragon Emperor has been intently watching her when she plays, and she is completely intoxicated!"

"Is it, what she plays, is it so beautiful?"

"Yes, the flute is very light and lively, and I feel that the whole field has been moved, and I am very happy!" The little maid happily described, completely unaware of the fact that the crown princess's face darkened.

"Okay, I see, you go down!" The crown princess interrupted her and let her leave. The flute has always been a thorn in her heart, the third prince's favorite instrument is the flute, for him she studied hard for a long time but never played a song for him, angry she broke her flute with her own hands and vowed never to play this instrument again. And now Yun Yan actually relied on the flute to get the favor of the Dragon Emperor, and the three princes also liked it, this Yun Yan has the support of the Dragon Emperor, and it is basically a sure thing to become the third princess.
