Although the role of the original Imperial Palace has gradually diminished after Hibiscus Garden became the political and power center of Kyoto, the Imperial Palace is still heavily guarded, and it is almost impossible for outsiders to quietly break in.

Not even a martial arts grandmaster.

The woman walked in from outside the palace and was broken into the palace like this, Li Mingzhu didn't care, looked at her and didn't move away for a long time.

"Sister Ruyi!"

Shou Ning jumped off the bed, barefoot, ran to her side, grabbed her arm, and asked excitedly: "Sister Ruyi, you are back, where is Mr., is Mr. back, where is he now?" ”

She ran barefoot outside the hall, looked around, ran back again, and asked with some disappointment, "Sister Ruyi, where is the gentleman?" ”

Miss Liu Er looked at her and said softly, "He hasn't come back yet." ”

Shou Ning was a little disappointed, but she was a little happy to think that no matter sooner or later, her husband would definitely come back.

She has already met Sister Ruyi, will it be too late to meet her husband?

Li Mingzhu stood up, looked at her, and said softly: "Bingning, you go out for a while first, I have something to say to your sister Ruyi." ”

Shou Ning nodded, looked at the imperial sister and sister Ruyi, put on his shoes, and walked outside the hall.

Li Mingzhu stood opposite Miss Liu Er, was silent for a moment, and asked, "Are you here to show off?" ”

Miss Liu Er looked at her, her face was originally calm, but in the next moment, she showed a touching smile, nodded, and said, "That's right, I'm here to show off." ”

The two used to be strong opponents, in terms of appearance, Chunlan and Autumn Chrysanthemum, each with its own merits; In terms of martial arts, they are evenly matched, regardless of whether they are up or down; Li Mingzhu is the eldest princess, Liu Ruyi has a big chest, and after careful calculation, the two are even.

It's different now.

Her status above 10,000 people is still an advantage, but she still loses a cup in figure.

However, the only thing she can get her hands on is this identity.

Liu Ruyi has become a grandmaster, and she has taken that crucial step before herself.

was once the same person who fell to the end of the world, how could she not know how this step was taken?

This means that she is not only one step ahead of her on the path of martial arts, but also one step ahead of her on the road of life.

It's about who is bigger and who's younger in the future, who is the sister and who is the younger sister, who can challenge whom, who can fight back, and who can't......

She thought for a moment, then looked at her and asked, "Why didn't he come back with you?" ”

Miss Liu Er did not answer, and the atmosphere in the hall fell silent.

Li Mingzhu looked at her, suddenly smiled, and said, "It turns out that you haven't won yet." ”

……

When Shou Ning walked back to the main hall, he looked left and right, and asked suspiciously, "Sister Huang, where is Sister Ruyi?" ”

Li Mingzhu did not continue to review the chapter, but walked outside the main hall, looked at the clouds in the distance, and said, "Let's go." ”

"Gone?" Shou Ning was even more puzzled, "But I didn't see her go out just now......"

Li Mingzhu didn't follow the topic, looked at her and asked: "In three days, the literary exam will begin, just the first test, thousands of people participated, don't you go and see the exam questions?" ”

Shou Ning patted his head and said, "I almost forgot, but I can't let them mess around, I still have to come up with a few questions by myself......"

After she said a word, she ran away as fast as she could.

Li Mingzhu stood in front of the hall, looking at the sky in the distance, and the clouds were rolling.

A slight smile appeared on her face, "Who wins and loses, it doesn't have to be ......"

……

In Jingguo, the life of the people of Kyoto is never boring, not only because of the endless new dramas and talent shows in Gokan, but also because there is never a shortage of new things around them in Kyoto.

The lace news of a certain third-grade senior member in the DPRK and China can only be regarded as a condiment at best, and he is not even qualified to become a talking point after tea and dinner.

The love and hatred between the eldest princess and the mysterious King Jing have been circulated in the mouths of the people, and there have been several versions.

The story of His Majesty and His Royal Highness King Jing today, there are more versions.

In recent months, the queen mother and the concubine want to choose a horse for Princess Shouning, which has caused a wave of heat in Kyoto, which lasted for several months.

Princess Shouning is definitely a legend in Kyoto.

Not to mention the well-known degree of Shouning Academy in Kyoto and even in the entire Jingguo, just the dean of the Women's College and the president of the Women's Federation have made her the existence of the second highest status after the eldest princess among the women of Jingguo.

Princess Shouning, who is already eighteen years old, is not married yet, which is an extremely rare thing in the royal family.

Of course, the eldest princess is twenty-four years old, and she is still alone, which is not only rare in the royal family, but also in the people, but the eldest princess is a special case of the royal family, and the imperial history who does not want to die does not dare to mention this matter.

Although the wealthy families in Kyoto are not very willing to marry the royal princess, Princess Shouning is an exception, she is not only outstanding in appearance, but also outstanding in ability......

And this time, the nationwide selection of horses has completely broken the boundaries of Gaomen.

Regardless of origin, regardless of family background, as long as they are in good health, young talents between the ages of 18 and 25 are eligible to participate in this competition, and they may become the last colt.

For most people, this is an opportunity to climb to the top.

The men of school age in the entire Jingguo were attracted by this matter, and came all the way to Kyoto, and for a while, Kyoto, which was already lively and prosperous, was overcrowded, and all the restaurants and inns were full, and even the villages dozens of miles outside the capital also temporarily started the inn business.

Of course, it is not so easy to become a colt.

Princess Shouning is also a person, that is one of the two most brilliant pearls among the royal princesses, people who want to marry her, hand in hand can circle Kyoto several times, but there is only one horse, these thousands of people, need to go through an extremely cruel competition, it is possible to have the last laugh.

First of all, you must pass the essay test.

When the court horse does not say that it is the crown of the world, with the talent of the heavens and latitudes, but it can not be a straw bag, this first literary test, involving poetry and songs, a subset of history, and even a link of governing the country, according to the final results of the ranking, absolute fairness, justice and openness, only this literary test, to eliminate more than ninety percent of the people, leaving only 100 people, into the second martial arts test link.

Princess Shouning is both civil and military, and the concubine naturally can't just dance and ink, she needs both Wen Tao and Wu Strategy, so that she can be worthy of Her Royal Highness the Princess.

In this martial arts test, ninety percent of the people had to be eliminated, and in the end, only ten people were left, and they entered the final link.

It is said that in this final link, not only the queen mother and the concubine, but also His Majesty and the eldest princess will participate, even if they can't become a colt in the end, they can come to this point, for most people, there are no regrets in this life.

Kyoto, beyond the city gates.

A few figures stood outside the door, as if they had traveled a lot, and they looked like they were covered in dust.

The leader was a handsome young man, he was not very old, he looked like he was in his early twenties, looking at the tall and majestic city wall, he stopped for a long time, and there was a trace of vicissitudes and profundity in his eyes that did not match his age.

At the gate of the city, a fat man who had been looking left and right for a long time suddenly stepped forward and asked with a smile: "Brother Tai is also here to participate in the selection of horses?" ”

The young man withdrew his gaze and looked at him.

The fat man looked sneakily left and right, patted his bulging belly, and whispered: "Brother Tai, I have the topic of the first literary exam here, I see that Brother Tai is related to me, how about selling you a share of ten taels of silver?" ”

The young man looked at him and said with a smile: "This time I chose a horse, but in the national examination, where did you get the question?" ”

The fat man looked at him, with a mysterious look on his face, and said: "The little brother can come out to sell, then there is naturally a way, as long as ten taels of silver, you can pass this first literary test, and ten taels of silver can see the face of Princess Shouning, brother, you really don't think about it......"

The young man shook his head, "Ten taels, ah......"

The fat man saw that he was already moved, and hurriedly said: "If Brother Tai is interested, eight taels will also do......"

"Eight taels ......"

The fat man gritted his teeth and said, "Six taels, six taels can't be less!" ”

The young man looked at him, thought for a moment, and said, "Shiwen." ”
