He Xingyao didn't know why there was such a strange object in her hand, but it didn't have much impact, so she just carried it with her, and it was no different from usual.

The time for the exam was soon coming, He Xingyao was ready early, went to the examination room set up by the imperial court next to Heyun Temple, and waited for the examiner to issue the questions.

Throughout the day, all these candidates were full of energy, and everyone looked much more active than usual.

He Xingyao didn't have any special feelings, but the moment she walked out of the examination room, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

In order to solve the matter of the emperor's marriage, and to let the world know that women's talents are worse than men's, so although she spent a lot of time to save Hongfeng, but in the next few days, she learned very seriously, rewriting the knowledge that she ignored, and reading all of it well, striving to be meticulous.

During the period of waiting for the results, He Xingyao did not get along with the friends she usually made, after all, she was still very anxious, if her identity was leaked, it would really be worth the loss.

It's just that the people in the inn can't hide it after all.

This year, there are a total of 367 candidates in the imperial court, the champion is He Qi, the list is Li Xi and Wang Gu, and Tanhua is Zhan Hongfeng and other three outstanding candidates.

At that time, as soon as the innkeeper heard the news, he hurriedly appeared at the door of her room with good wine and food.

He Xingyao was puzzled, so he asked very surprised: "Little Er, are you mistaken?" Ben Gongzi didn't want these meals at all! ”

As soon as these words fell, the shopkeeper suddenly said with a smile: "He Gongzi, why are you so humble? Now that you have won the champion, the villain hopes that you can see the share of the champion who has lived in this inn, so that the small shop can also add lustre, Zhuangyuanlang, this meal is a small snack for your new official before taking office, try it first! ”

He Xingyao looked at the shopkeeper stammering like this, and the innkeeper was about to come up, so she could only smile and say, "Then it's disrespectful." ”

Xiao Er nodded and said: "Exactly, it is an honor for you to be able to taste the villain's craftsmanship, thank you Childe." ”

As soon as the shopkeeper finished speaking, the innkeeper appeared directly here, and as soon as he saw He Xingyao, he said with a smile: "Zhuangyuanlang, now that you are the champion of high school, the small shop is naturally also added to the glory, I don't know if you can carry it and let the villain also be a half-official?" ”

While talking, the innkeeper also took out several gold ingots and handed them to her, and kept squinting at her.

He Xingyao didn't think there was any surprise, anyway, no matter what dynasties and dynasties, there were corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and the trend of buying officials and selling lords was also there in any dynasty.

In this regard, she has never felt anything unusual, people are divided into good and evil, good and bad, and the same is true for those court ministers, there are good and bad, just like darkness and light go hand in hand.

When she thought of this, the small object in her hand, which was similar to a conch, suddenly emitted a golden light, and then she actually sang a song, which was particularly pleasant to the ear, making people want to indulge and be intoxicated for a while.

The content of the song goes like this:

You are a little bit of me, a little bit of the country is in front of you

Above the clouds, a roller shutter is below

In the sky, the eagle soars

In the world, Jingo Paradise

Heroines

There is only a void left

Rectify the rule of officials, and the mountains and rivers are light

Smile with you, and the world will be the same

The world is the same

He Xingyao listened to this song, and suddenly saw that on the back of this conch-like object, there were two words engraved on it: sound bell.

She looked at it, presumably this should be the name of this thing, but it turned out to be a sound bell?

The bell had been ringing for a long, long time, and the song had been repeated many, many times, and she felt that it must be something that was implied in the dark, and although she didn't know it yet, she would know the mystery one day.

But she didn't sing it after this bell was sung, not to mention that the innkeeper was still here, so she could only smile vaguely: "Boss, look at what you said, being an official or something, it's all the meaning of the imperial court, I'm just a small common man, although I have won the champion, but after all, I haven't had an official and a half-job, so this favor, I can't help you!" ”

The innkeeper didn't know what she meant by prevarication, but the famous champion in front of him couldn't be offended no matter what, so after sensing that he couldn't talk, he hurriedly left.

He Xingyao waited until the innkeeper left, then closed the door tightly, and then sat on the chair a little nervously, lying on the table and staring at the sound bell seriously.

Although the news of Zhuang Yuanlang has spread all over the capital, she knows that the will of the court will not come down so quickly, so she still has a number in her heart.

Suddenly, a strange voice sounded, but this voice was quite good, it was a very cute little sister's voice: "Ding Dong Ding Dong, Ding Dong Ding Dong, Master Master, Master Master!" ”

"Who, who the hell? Who's pretending? Hurry up and get me out! ”

He Xingyao felt that the atmosphere in this room was very wrong, so when he spoke, his tone couldn't help but be a little sharper.

"Yes, it's me, Yinling, master, you helped Zhan Hongfeng come out of the illusion, so I'm your trophy."

"Rings? Aren't you speechless? ”

He Xingyao's heart felt very surprised for a while, how could this be possible? And it's really weird, it's just a small sound bell, and it can actually speak? Isn't this about to be refined?

Just when she was surprised, the sound bell suddenly trembled, and said: "Master, in fact, you don't have to make a fuss, I can sing anyway, so it is not difficult for me to speak at all, only I am difficult for others." ”

This little sound bell is really cute, but why is it so arrogant when she speaks?

He Xingyao thought so in his heart, and suddenly said in a solemn tone: "Yinling, since you can speak, what is the matter with the song you sang before?" Could it be that there really was a heroine here? ”

As soon as he finished saying this, the bell suddenly shook violently, and then a cyan light emanated from all around it, causing the entire table to shake.

"This, Tonebell, what's wrong with you? Why do you keep shaking like this? ”

Yin Ling looked at her and said, "Master, in fact, this is not the real world, but you are a good person, so Yin Ling is willing to help you and let you return to the world where you should exist." ”

As soon as he finished saying this, He Xingyao didn't realize what was going on, and the inn's shopkeeper led a group of people and appeared outside the door.

The bell didn't ring anymore, so she had to put it aside for a moment and open the door to deal with the people outside.

Sure enough, in just a moment, two people dressed as officials came over outside, saluted her and said: "Lord He, congratulations on your high school champion, this is the champion dress brought by His Majesty's ministers, please change into it, and follow Weichen to meet Your Majesty!" ”

He Xingyao looked at the posture of this group of people, and already knew in his heart that there was no way to shirk such a thing for the time being.

However, she originally planned to meet His Majesty, so naturally she didn't dare to slack off, and quickly went behind the screen to change her clothes, and then said to a poor person in front of her: "Big brother, please!" ”

"Please!"

In this way, He Xingyao changed into a red champion suit, rode a horse through the streets, and went straight to the palace.

When he came to the Jinluan Palace, the emperor's heart happened to be extremely happy, and when he saw that the champion he had appointed was coming, he was a little carried away with joy.

I saw that in order to alleviate the embarrassment, he coughed lightly twice, and then he spoke: "He Qi, as the champion of the current dynasty, I have read some of your discussions, and my level is indeed better than most people in the court, but it is a little green and still needs to be honed." ”

After a pause, he continued: "Although you are now the leader of the dynasty, I want to train you to be the greatest loyal and capable minister to assist me in governing state affairs, I wonder if you are willing to join forces with me?" ”

In fact, before hearing these words, He Xingyao had already imagined it many times, after all, the current emperor has just ascended the throne, but for some reason, whether it is in the court or the people, there is no status at all, as long as anyone talks about this emperor, they will feel big, and even irritable, anyway, they have never had good words.

After all, she didn't know much about these things, so she quickly agreed to the emperor's request and said: "Thank you for your grace, but Weichen has another request!" ”

As soon as the emperor saw that she had agreed, he quickly lifted her up from the ground, and the two of them sat down in their chairs together.

After a long time, he said, "Okay, Aiqing, please say, if I can do it, I will definitely help!" ”

As soon as these words fell, He Xingyao directly knelt on the ground again, and said: "Your Majesty must be the talker, Weichen asks Your Majesty to dissolve the marriage between He Xingyao and Hu Ling, these two people are not worthy at all!" ”

The emperor originally thought that it must not be very difficult for her to ask for her own affairs, but she didn't expect to let herself take back her fate, and she had already announced the holy decree to the world, but now she rashly withdrew the holy decree, where is the dignity of the emperor? How does Chrysostom deal with herself?

When he heard these words, he was almost angry, but looking at the person in front of him, he could only say helplessly: "Aiqing, I know what you mean by this, but I really can't do that, otherwise this holy decree will be useless, how can I establish my majestic image in the future?" ”

He looked at the champion in front of him, daring to make such a request, he really didn't want to live.

However, he could only condemn in his heart, and he couldn't say any words of reproach on his face, after all, what happened back then was his fault after all.

Why? Why does this champion look so similar to the great generals of the year? Whether it is image and temperament, or appearance, it seems to be carved out of a mold, he feels that he is going crazy, and finally recruited a champion, finally this person said that he wanted to help himself, but he didn't expect that he was still an enemy after all.

He Xingyao listened to the words he just said, and knew that he was not willing to help at all, and he felt a little lost in his heart for a while, and the original light in his eyes disappeared in an instant.

It's just that Yin Ling sang the previous song violently at this time, and the grievances he sang were like crying, as if he had a huge grievance, which made He Xingyao unable to do it for a while, completely calm.

The origin of this bell is too strange, but the song is also very strange, she repeatedly recalled the lyrics, it should be about a general-level character, but what kind of grievances will there be?

She still couldn't figure it out, now that the emperor and she are in a stalemate with each other, they don't know how to understand at all, and this palace is full of weirdness, and there are so many secrets that people want to breathe, and even after a long time, they want people to give up.

However, after all, she is a tenacious and persevering person, so no matter how big the secret is, she still has to find out after all, otherwise, she will not be at ease no matter what.

After thinking of this, He Xingyao could only temporarily soften, glanced at the emperor cautiously, and said: "Your Majesty, this matter is not considered by Weichen, but Weichen feels that His Majesty rashly gave marriage, and also announced to the world that this matter is not appropriate after all, so if there is no way to take back the fate, then you can only make another holy decree and postpone the marriage." ”

When the emperor heard this, he also knew that she was talking softly to herself, although he was a little helpless in his heart, he still asked: "He Qi, why do you care so much about the original marriage decree?" Could it be that this has something to do with you? ”

He Xingyao listened to these words, his brain turned quickly, and after a long time, he said with a slight hesitation: "Back to Your Majesty, He Xingyao is Weichen's cousin, she and Weichen grew up together, and the minister knew that it was impossible for her to like Hu Ling, so she wanted to ask Your Majesty to take back her life, but all this was difficult to recover after all, so it could only be delayed, otherwise, Weichen was afraid that his sister would do something irrational, and then it would really hurt the two families." ”

She said this neither humbly nor arrogantly, and her face was not red or her heart was beating, but she always had a very peculiar feeling in her heart.

When the emperor heard this explanation, he thought in his heart that He Qi liked his cousin, so he couldn't bear it, but also, between the family, if they have the ability to help, they just want to help.

He looked at He Xingyao in front of him, and said directly: "He Qi listens to the order, I still want to keep you in Jingshi for the time being, now do you have a plan to quell the rumors in the palace and outside the palace?" ”

He Xingyao said: "What rumors? ”

The emperor hesitated for a while, and then said slowly: "It's about me and the former general Hanrin, there are many rumors among the people, and they all say that I killed the general Hanrin, but this matter was not done by me, so Aiqing, can you help calm all this?" ”

Could this be the case?

He Xingyao didn't know what to say, sure enough, did that song come true after all?

It turned out that in the song sung by Yin Ling, the heroine could really be this cold general, but how could this have anything to do with the emperor?

She felt that she really needed to be quiet, but this errand was naturally to be taken.

So, she said directly: "Weichen can do it, and he can calm the rumors for His Majesty, but you have to cooperate!" ”

"That's natural!"
