"The emperor is wise." A minister came to the front of the palace from the banquet, as if he was drunk, and he actually shook on the main hall, his face was full of spring, and his tongue was knotted, "It would be a good thing if I could take advantage of today's good day to choose a horse for the eldest princess." ”

Qiu Chulin glanced at the man in surprise, he really didn't expect that he would kill such a useful Cheng Biting Jin halfway.

Fang Jinyue swept over the man with cold eyes and did not speak.

The atmosphere in the main hall suddenly became delicate because of the emperor's silence, and the ministers couldn't figure out what the emperor meant, and they didn't dare to speak rashly, only Lime looked at his brother's angry and ugly face, and covered his mouth and chuckled.

Qiu Chulin's trap is set up well, and when he enters the palace, he wants to propose his relatives, which catches his brother off guard, and then when his brother is angry, he leads his brother to say that he chooses a horse.

Since the elder brother himself said that he wanted to choose a horse for himself, then this matter should be put on the agenda.

Fang Jinyue's current mood is not as good-looking as it is on his face, his good sister and outsiders have set him up, but it is ridiculous that he actually got into it.

The so-called concern is chaos, and it should be his current situation.

Now as long as one person gets up and says the last sentence to discuss the long term or to discuss it later, he can postpone the matter along the steps, Fang Jinyue's eyes swept back and forth on the ministers several times, and he did not find the ministers who intended to get up to relieve him, and finally he set his eyes on Fang Mu.

It's just that Fang Mu seemed to be a little absent-minded at the moment, his eyes were staring straight at the wine glass on the table, as if he wanted to see flowers from it, so he naturally ignored Fang Jinyue's cold gaze with help when he fell on him.

"King Xiaoyao, what do you think about this?" Fang Jinyue's tone seemed to be carrying a knife.

"Back to the emperor, the eldest princess is talented, and ordinary men can't stand side by side with the eldest princess, so the minister thinks that what the emperor said is really wise for the eldest princess to choose a horse." Fang Mu's forehead was slightly covered with cold sweat, and he felt that the emperor's gaze on him at this moment could almost knock him out, "The minister thinks that he can announce the selection of horses to the world on the same day, and invite young talents with ambitions from all over the world to go to the capital to choose horses." ”

"The minister seconded the proposal." The old lady got up and agreed, "The eldest princess and Lu have been married for a long time, and they should have been married a long time ago according to the etiquette system, so they can't be delayed any longer." ”

The old lady is over 70 years old, and he is already a veteran of the Three Dynasties, and his prestige is very heavy.

This time, Fang Jinyue's face finally became gloomy, the etiquette system proposed by the old lady really put him in a dilemma, if he refutes this matter, it is not just a change of the order, but a violation of the ancestral system, which is a great fault for the king.

Fang Jinyue finally agreed to this matter, because he knew that he was not qualified to act against the ancestral system now, let alone change the capital of the ancestral system.

After receiving the decree, the Ministry of Rites immediately began to prepare, and the list was posted early the next morning, and within a few days, the matter of the eldest princess's choice of husband was spreading.

A month later, the talents of the four countries gathered in Suyan City, and there were thousands of famous posts and qualifications, including many people from the royal family of various countries, sons of important ministers and individual visitors from all over the world.

The project of choosing a son-in-law was finalized by the emperor himself, first with martial arts as a stepping stone, competition within the group, ten people in each group, a total of 100 people; Again, the competition within the same group is two, and each group is promoted to two people, a total of twenty people; All the rest of the people repeat the fight until one person wins.

It's simple, but it's the fairest and most practical.

Lime only dressed up on the first day of the fight, and then never appeared in front of everyone, until half a month later, the first fight ended, Lime reappeared, in front of everyone after drawing a question of the fight, did not linger for a moment, Ying Ying gave a salute, and left.

Although the eldest princess only appeared twice, she had already asked everyone to engrave her elegance in their hearts.

After the fight, when the results are not out, everyone often gathers in one place, drinks with friends, and talks about poetry and swords, which inevitably mentions the eldest princess, and when the eldest princess is mentioned, there are more topics for everyone.

Qiu Chulin sat in the corner, listening to everyone talking about the world and the deeds of the eldest princess, and he couldn't help but feel lonely again, he hadn't seen her for a long time.

He was not a disciple who climbed the window in the middle of the night, but after everyone's talk today, he missed it more and more in his heart, especially when he remembered that night she had decided to marry him, and the thoughts in his heart were even more out of control.

So he came to Changle Palace and saw a scene that had scared him for many years.

She looked indifferent, holding the crescent moon in her hand, and little by little she picked the skin on her wrist, her mind was so concentrated that she didn't even know that he was standing behind her.

And he finally knew at this moment what she had done without telling her.

Qiu Chulin was afraid that he would disturb her rashly, so he walked slowly to her side from behind her, squatted down, and said cautiously, "Ling'er, put down the crescent moon." ”

"You...... What are you doing here? Lime was still flustered for a moment when she heard this, and her right hand holding the crescent moon trembled slightly.

"Ling'er, you are obedient and put down the crescent moon." Qiu Chulin looked at her trembling right hand, and his heart suddenly lifted.

"No, I can't give up." Lime tried his best to stabilize his right hand, and the crescent moon sank into the flesh again.

"Ling'er, if you are disobedient, I will lose the game and I will not marry you." Qiu Chulin was anxious for a while, but he didn't dare to stop it rashly, so he had to stare at her eyes in a hurry, and said seriously, "I am a person in the army, and the military order is like a mountain, and I will definitely do it when I say it." ”

Hearing this, Lime really stopped what she was doing, she turned her head to look at him, and pleaded, "Childe, this is my last chance......"

Qiu Chulin stopped talking, just looked at her, his eyes were firm, and there was no joke.

The two of them were in such a stalemate for a long time, and finally Qiu Chulin was defeated, he got up, and his hoarse voice was full of loneliness and disappointment, "How did you ever give me a chance?" If you insist on doing so, I can only do what I say and quit the game. ”

After he finished speaking, he walked to the window where he came, and when he was about to leave through the window, there was a sound of metal falling behind him, and then a force grabbed his clothes, and a weak voice sounded behind him, and instantly messed up his heart, "Childe, I won't pick, don't go......"

All the emotions suppressed in Qiu Chulin's heart, worry, fear, self-blame, pity, and distress, all burst into anger at the moment when she chased after her.

He turned around, pulled away her hand holding his coat, pulled her with great force, he grabbed her waist, hugged her horizontally in his arms, and strode towards the embroidery bed, while shouting angrily outside the door, "Someone...... Come! ”

Jing Chuchu guarded outside the door, and hurried into the hall as soon as she heard the voice, Qiu Chulin's arrival did not surprise her, what surprised her was the wound on the princess's wrist, and then she also understood the princess's intentions and the reason for Qiu Chulin's anger, she didn't dare to delay for a moment, and quickly found medicine to bandage the princess.

"Fortunately, the general came in time, and the princess's hand is fine, and it will be fine after a while, and it will not leave a scar." Jing Chuchu felt Qiu Chulin's anger, she bandaged Lime's wrist, briefly explained a few words, and hurriedly left the place of right and wrong.

The princess herself is in trouble, and she has to solve it herself.

"If you do it again, I really won't marry you." Qiu Chulin's anger did not subside, he dropped such a sentence, and got up to leave.

"Childe." Lime bit her lower lip, grabbed his sleeve, tucked her hand into his, and shook it a few times, "I'm obedient, don't be angry......"

Qiu Chulin's face stiffened slightly, and the hand touching her smooth skin tightened unconsciously.

"I've used beauty tricks, you will be fooled, don't be angry with me." Seeing that he was reluctant to speak to him, Lime squeezed his palm again and said softly.

Qiu Chulin shook his head, and the conversation not long ago echoed in his ears.

"You beauty has a very good plan, when did you use it on me and make me smitten once?"

That day, he kidnapped her from Xuan Yan's cruise ship and sent her back to Changle Palace, and asked her such a sentence when he left.

"Childe is wise and martial, even if I use a beauty trick, I won't be fooled."

That's how she answered him.

"As long as you don't hurt yourself again, I'll take your beauty trick." Qiu Chulin sighed lightly and sat back on her bedside with her strength.

"Okay, I promise you that I won't do it to myself again." Lime chuckled and replied obediently, "You have to promise me that you can't lose." ”

"If I lose, your beauty trick will be used by others again." Qiu Chulin clenched her hand and said softly, "In the future, you can only design me as a beauty." ”

"I've never seen someone like you like to be designed." Lime laughed.

"There are not ten of your schemes against me, but eight. Only today this beautiful woman has a plan to suit my appetite and makes me happy. Qiu Chulin said.

Lime covered her mouth and smiled, looking at him with a little guilt in her eyes.

"Okay, it's late at night, you rest, I should go back." Qiu Chulin squeezed her hand, watched her lie down, and explained a few more words to Jing Chuchu, and then he fell out of the window when he came.

Qiu Chulin did not leave Changle Palace, he climbed to the roof along the window, and when the lights were turned off in the Changle Palace, and when she breathed steadily in the hall, he fell asleep on the roof.

At this moment, his heart was extremely afraid, if he had not gone to the banquet of those people today, had not heard their talk, had not missed her uncontrollably, or if he had been a step late, the crescent moon would pierce her skin and seriously injure her hands and feet...... This method can help her achieve her goals, but it can also make her a waste.

Now he can only let go of his heart and make his heart feel better if he guards her.

In the early morning of the next day, before dawn, Qiu Chulin sneaked into the hall softly, stood beside her bed for a long time, imprinted her eyebrows and eyes in her heart several times, and then carefully covered her with a quilt, struggled for a long time, dropped a light kiss on her forehead, and left quietly.
