Chapter 82: Be reserved
The bustling Changyang Street, which is full of people and is very lively, is the only way from the West Gate of Lin'an to the palace in the imperial city, so hearing the news of the arrival of the prince of the Yue Turk Kingdom today has already made the residents of the city excited.
Especially the countless girls in the city, they couldn't help but feel the spring ripples, desperately dropped the half of the mandarin duck embroidery in their hands, and threw away the smoke and rain pictures on the table that had not yet had time to be colored.
Come to the street and vow to see how the most beautiful man in the Yue Turkic country looks charming.
The king of Yue Ju had three sons, the eldest son Nguyen Yang, the second son Nguyen Qi, and the youngest son Nguyen Che......
In Ruan Wencang's eyes, among the three sons, the eldest son Ruan Yang is the most like himself, the most indisputable is Ruan Qi, and the most low-key and intelligent is the boy Ruan Che.
Nguyen Yang is beautiful and intelligent, and since he was a child, he has followed the king of Yue Ji to learn how to govern the country, and has become the future king to succeed to the throne.
Not only that, he has always been interested in cultivation, and he has not been practicing exercises on Jianji Mountain, and he has had several encounters with the wizard of the cultivation world.
It's just that because Ruan Yang spends most of his energy on learning and handling state affairs, although he has long had a wisdom root, he is hovering in the realm of cultivation at the third layer.
Just a few months ago, the little prince of the Yue Turkic Kingdom returned from the Song Dynasty to visit his seriously ill mother, and secretly investigated how the mother concubine, who had been in good health, suddenly became seriously ill.
Ruan Yang always knew that his half-brother was not a simple person.
But he didn't expect that the pickling methods used by Princess Zheng in secret would be presented to King Yue so quickly.
The king of Yue was furious and was ready to punish the princess severely, but at this time, Ruan Yang, who was the future king, stood up and said that he wanted to take it as a surrogate.
and claimed that he could go to the Song Kingdom as a hostage instead of Ruan Che to make up for his mother's sins.
Xiao Shizi Yuanche saw him like this, but he didn't look half moved, because he knew in his heart that his eldest brother wanted to atone for his sins, but he just had another shrewd plan.
Sure enough, before Ruan Yang set off for the Song Kingdom, there were letters that arrived in the Song Dynasty first, and when Ruan Yang came to the country as a hostage, he also asked the Emperor of the Song State to allow him to go to the famous Helan Academy to study and practice.
The emperor of the Song State refused to do so, and immediately agreed.
He was very happy with Ruan Yang's arrival, and replied that he would definitely let his subordinates receive him well, and he would never embarrass the future king of Yueju.
Therefore, the news that the future king of the Yue Turkic Kingdom, the famous beautiful man Nguyen Duan, arrived in the capital today, quickly spread in the capital city of Lin'an.
Attracted countless girls to cherish spring, and the big girls sleepwalked.
It wasn't until Zhang Xiaoxian came to the street and heard the whispered discussion of the big girl and the little daughter-in-law that he knew that the so-called His Royal Highness the Prince of the Yue Ji Kingdom who came this time was not his confidant Ruan Che, who he hadn't seen for a long time, but someone else.
Not only was my heart full of joy, but it suddenly came to naught.
"Isn't it just a man from a foreign country, what is there to see?"
Zhang Xiaoxian muttered dissatisfiedly and wanted to turn around and return.
But he found that he was already squeezed into the crowd and couldn't move, and even if he didn't want to see it, he had to look at it reluctantly.
At this moment, the bend who went out later saw him from the back of the crowd, and he actually shrunk his small body and struggled to get through the crowd.
When Zhang Xiaoxian saw her, he was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly looked around, but heard Wanwan explain: "Don't look for it, Brother Lin Zi saw too many people, and he would have gone back a long time ago." ”
"Ao, then why don't you go back with you?" Zhang Xiaoxian said dissatisfiedly.
Xiao Wanwan listened, laughed at him twice, and said in a low voice: "I heard that His Royal Highness the Great Prince who came this time is not only the future monarch of the Yue Turk Kingdom, but also extremely handsome, so I also want to take a closer look......"
Hearing this, Zhang Xiaoxian not only lectured her angrily: "Reserved, doesn't a little girl's family know what it means to be reserved, and what if a man is good-looking?
Wanwan listened, looked up at him, and couldn't help but pout, and didn't speak again.
At this moment, the people on both sides of the street in front of them suddenly became a little commotion, and then there was the sound of horses' hooves, from far and near.
A team of more than a dozen horses came slowly from the middle of the street.
The little maid bent and bent over, and she had long been disinterested, and leaned forward to look ahead.
At this time, there were already small screams in the middle of the streets.
"Oh my God, it's so beautiful!"
"This is the great prince of the Yue Ji Kingdom, oops! It's really fascinating!"
Although Zhang Xiaoxian was a little unimpressed by these fuss and exclamations, he still couldn't help but follow everyone's eyes to look at the high-profile figure on the street.
He saw that among the guards of this small team, there was a beautiful man, who stood out and was dazzling.
I saw him wearing a red dress, wide sleeves with gold lines, and a jade belt around his waist, with an outstanding demeanor.
The face is like a crown of jade, the sideburns are like a knife, the eyebrows are picturesque, and the lips are dotted, what a beautiful man with a romantic symbol......
A black horse under his crotch is majestic, and the person on the seat is beautiful, as if it is not a person who is gradually walking in the world, but a fairy picture.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Xiaoxian, who is a straight man like steel, was not only a little stunned.
"Is there really such a man in the world who is more handsome than a woman?
"No wonder there are so many people coming to see the excitement, it turns out that His Royal Highness, the great prince of the Yue Ji Kingdom, is really peerless!"
The little maid bent and looked at the beautiful man at this time, not only blurted out praise from the bottom of her heart.
When Zhang Xiaoxian heard her say this, his expression immediately froze, and he still felt very cool when he looked at the beautiful man, and suddenly became a little tasteless.
"What is peerless, it's just a skin with a bit of color......"
When Wanwan heard this, he not only turned his head to look at him, but then shook his head and sighed, as if to say, Brother Xiaoxian, don't you feel a little sour when you say this?
Seeing this expression, Zhang Xiaoxian couldn't help coughing dryly, and said loudly: "You see that at such a time, you still only care about watching the excitement here, don't you feel hungry, hurry back......
So, he forcibly squeezed through the crowd and walked out, and some reluctant bends were also forcibly pulled out.
......
In the imperial study room of the Song Palace, Lizong Zhao Yu reviewed the piles of recitals that had accumulated for a while, and felt a little headache, so he got up and stood in front of the bookcase.
After pacing a few steps slowly, I suddenly thought of the foreign prince Ruan Yang who was extremely handsome in the main hall today.
Thinking of the request he had made to take his brother hostage, and begged to recruit the inner door of Helan Courtyard.
Suddenly, I felt a lot of feelings.
He called Huo Xiao, an official of the Ministry of Rites and the commander of the guards, to the imperial study.
The two of them came to the imperial study one after another, Shi Li greeted him, and Emperor Zhao Yu raised his hand gently, "You don't have to be polite, you are called here today for the affairs of Helan Courtyard......"
When these two people heard it, it was because of Helan Academy, not only did they understand in their hearts that what His Majesty the Emperor said must be for the annual recruitment of disciples for the inner gate.
So the official immediately bowed down and said: "Helan Academy is a famous courtyard with many talents, and the inner gate is a good place to train outstanding generals and wizards.
Zhao Yu shook his head slightly after hearing this: "This is not the point, what I want to say is that since everyone knows that the inner gate of Helan Courtyard is not an easy place to enter, then the students who can enter the inner gate should be the talents of our Great Song Dynasty, but recently, the Yue and Han Qi countries have their own sons invited to enter Helan Courtyard, and what they want is also the inner door, so ......"
As soon as the officials heard this, they immediately understood what the emperor was worried about.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured, I have already checked the situation of the students in each academy, and the students who belong to our Song Kingdom, several of them are fledgling, but they are sharp-edged students, they will definitely be able to compare those two foreign sons this time, so that our own people in the Song Kingdom can be successfully admitted to the inner gate of Helan Academy!"
When Zhao Yu heard this, he immediately smiled on his face: "So, are we still the students of the Song Kingdom who are the most sure?"
"This, it seems to be ......," the official said hurriedly bowing.
"Lord Wang, this may not be!" Huo Xiao, who had been standing aside and quietly listening to the conversation between the two, suddenly interjected at this time.
"As far as I know, among the students of Helan Academy, there are indeed a few outstanding talents, who are from our Song Dynasty, such as the son of Wang An Ruhuai of Linshan County, An Chongshan, the son of General Heru of Guide, He Qingyun, and Yang Wenyue, the daughter of the hussar general, these are all the leaders of the young people in our Great Song Dynasty, however, what is worrying is that there is still a gap between their current cultivation and that Gongye Hua, the prince of Han Qiguo, not to mention that Ruan Yang, the great prince of the Yue Ju Kingdom, who has just come to the capital and vowed to enter the Helan Academy, is above all of them, so this time the inner door of the Helan Academy recruits the one who can win, whether we are from the Song Dynasty or not, it's hard to say......"
"Ao, how could this be?" Lizong Zhao Yu's expression immediately became a little displeased.
Although he reluctantly agreed to the request of Ruan Yang, the great prince of Yueju, and agreed that he could be admitted to Helan Academy during his time as a proton, he understood it deep down in his heart.
The Yue Turk Kingdom has always been eyeing the vast territory and rich resources of the Great Song Dynasty, and has never wanted to dominate for itself, but now there is no opportunity for them, so there is this apparent integration and calm.
It's just that once there is a change in the Song Kingdom, then this fusion will be immediately replaced by war.
Imagine how he could be willing to see the people of the Yue Turkic Kingdom enter the Helan Courtyard to practice, which is tantamount to giving others a sword and harming himself.
"How could Commander Huo know so much about the internal affairs of Helan Courtyard?" The official of the Ministry of Rites who had been commanded by the First Army was a little embarrassed when he heard this, so he asked.
Huo Xiao arched his hand: "I have the truth I know, but I can guarantee these things, absolutely right!"
The official seemed to be a little displeased, but he didn't know whether to refute or not, at this moment, Emperor Zhao Yu waved his hand at him and said, "Wang Qing go out first, I have my own conclusion on this matter!"
