January dissolves, the bright light hangs in the sky, the stars are dotted, and the crystal is embellished in the sky.

However, in two days, the royal court of Xizhao restored order. Lingwei rebelled, the monarch was under house arrest, and the prince and grandson were trapped, everything disappeared, and at this moment, under this watery moonlight, this palace in Xizhao was as peaceful and quiet as it had been for most of the past hundred years.

The delicate corners of the palace curved upward, outlining a beautiful arc in the night. Yuga leaned on the railing alone, and on this moonlit night when the spring was getting thicker, her heart was cold.

Tomorrow is the day when the monarch will hold a banquet to entertain all the guests, and at the banquet, the monarch will announce to the world the final candidate for the concubine of Xizhao.

However, today she learned that Wen Yan was actually a woman!

She didn't know how to come to terms with this reality.

This morning, she went to greet the monarch and met Fengchen in the palace. No, it wasn't a chance encounter, it should be that Fengchen was deliberately waiting for her, in order to tell her this information that was enough to make her physically and mentally burned.

After Lingwei's incident, Fengchen became the heart of Chu Li's monarch, and he came to find all kinds of excuses to keep him in the palace in the past two days. Obviously, no matter what Chu Li thought before the monarch, after this coup d'état, Feng Chen has become the best horse in his heart.

Fengchen is good, but she prefers to smell the feast.

I like the wisdom and courage of "him", a commoner, who can raise a thousand gold to participate in the general election.

I like "he" obviously doesn't drink well, and he drinks "Shihua wine" with a smile.

He asked, "Why must the best man be the best person to be the colt, and not the princess's favorite person?" ”

Like "he", he said to everyone righteously and solemnly, "I am willing to marry only one person in this life, never take a concubine, and stay with the princess wholeheartedly." ”

In Fishtail Mountain, when she found out that it was "he" who jumped down from the mountain wall to find someone, her heart was happy and happy, so she abandoned her daughter's shyness, and couldn't wait to announce that she wanted to choose "him" as a colt!

She couldn't forget that when she was in the dark forest, "he" rushed down from the mountain with a sword to save people, and in the face of so many rebels, "he" improvised and talked and laughed freely.

"He" seems to be smiling all the time, and his bright smile makes people happy whenever they see him.

"He" is so smart that he doesn't speak, he acts like the wind, he does whatever he wants, and what "he" wants to do, even His Royal Highness Fengchen, who is a big sign, can't do anything about her.

It is said that "his" home is located between the mountains and rivers, if you can abandon this routine and indulge in such a person in the mountains and rivers for a lifetime, what kind of unbridled joy should it be......

So, before today, she had made up her mind that no matter what her father thought, she would choose the person she liked to be a colt! As long as she insists on herself, Wenyan still has a chance.

But now, everything is gone, what she wants, what she wants to prepare to work on, has come to naught.

"If the princess chooses her to be a colt, she will be killed."

A day had passed, but Feng Chen's words still made her so shocked, so stunned, so angry, so sad, and so agreed with as she had been when she first heard it.

The palace maid brought in the meal several times, and kept persuading her to eat something, but she couldn't eat a grain of rice.

How can you have the heart to eat?

At this moment, she just wants to find "him" and ask "he" why he came to participate in this son-in-law election, why has nothing to do such a bold thing?!

Yes, it is too bold to make the princess of a country fall in love with a woman!

And then, most importantly, she wants to ask "him" what to do now?! "He's" so smart, he must be able to come up with a good way to do both, right?

However, this heavy palace trapped her, and her noble princess status trapped her! In this big palace, no one knows her struggles, no one knows her troubles, she doesn't even have anyone to consult, so she can only make decisions alone.

Feng Chen said well, if Wenyan is chosen as a concubine, her daughter's identity will be exposed, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to end at that time, and "he" will be questioned, and it will also make the Xizhao royal family a joke......

Yuhe shook his head, "he" is a woman, what other way can there be two in this world?

When Yu He was depressed and sorrowful, Bai Jinyu was shopping vigorously in the night market full of flowers in Bidu.

"This cherry is delicious!" Bai Jinyu was full of praise in front of a fruit stand: "I have never eaten such a big, red and sweet cherry!" ”

The old woman who sold the fruit was overjoyed when she heard this: "Of course, this is our local cherry, you like it so much, I'll give you some to eat!" So saying, he took a small basket and filled it with a large handful.

Bai Jinyu hurriedly pressed her hand: "No, no, no, you don't have to give it, I have the money to buy it, and I have to buy more!" By the way, mother-in-law, how many days can you store these cherries? ”

The old woman said: "It can be put for many days, as long as you don't go to the stem, don't wash it, put it in a bamboo basket, and put it for seven days or eight days!" ”

"Huh? It's only been seven or eight days......" Bai Jinyu looked disappointed, how could seven or eight days be enough for her to bring Cuizhu to Wen Ling to eat?!

The old woman was concerned: "What's the matter, is seven or eight days still short?" She looked at a large stuffed cloth bag behind her, and asked, "Are you going a long way away?" ”

"Yo," Bai Jinyu hurriedly corrected her: "Mother-in-law, don't call me nonsense, how can I afford the name of this horse!" ”

The old woman lowered her voice knowingly and said, "What, is there any reliable news already?" ”

Bai Jinyu smiled bitterly, and said in his heart, how can he answer this, so he touched his nose and fooled it over.

The old woman looked at Bai Jinyu sympathetically for a while, as if she had organized language for a long time, and encouraged her: "Master Wen, don't be discouraged!" Mother-in-law, I can't be wrong about people, you will definitely find someone better than the princess in the future! Come, mother-in-law, please eat cherries, don't be sad! Eat my cherries and all your worries will be gone. As he spoke, he grabbed a large handful of cherries into the small basket and stuffed them for Bai Jinyu.

"Thank you, mother-in-law, you people in Bidu are really warm!" She smiled admittently, not knowing where she was acting like she was sad.

At this moment, a vendor on the opposite street beckoned to him: "Hey-Wen Gongzi, the noodles you ordered are ready, come and eat!" ”

Bai Jinyu hurriedly replied loudly: "Okay, just come!" So saying, he took out a piece of broken silver from his bosom and stuffed it into the old woman, put on the basket of cherries and put on his big cloth bag, and ran to the noodle stall.

Seeing a bowl of hot fried noodles waiting for him obediently on the table, Bai Jinyu immediately put down his pocket and basket and sat down to eat.

"Wen Gongzi, the stall is really fortunate to have a celebrity like you here." The owner of the noodle stall was a simple uncle, and when he saw Bai Jinyu eating so deliciously, he couldn't help but sit beside her and look at it.

Bai Jinyu took a bite of noodles and praised: "Uncle's noodles are delicious, don't be presumptuous, I am optimistic about you, you will definitely be able to open a luxurious noodle restaurant in the future!" ”

The stall owner laughed innocently, Bai Jinyu suddenly stopped his chopsticks and said in a low voice: "Or...... Uncle come back to Dazheng with me, open a noodle shop near my house, and I'll take my classmates and friends to take care of you, and make sure you can make a lot of money! ”

"Really?" The stall owner said with interest: "Does Wen Gongzi have so many friends? ”

Bai Jinyu sneered: "Friends are not much more expensive, the important thing is that my friends are rich people and have a generous hand, and the most important thing is that they listen to me very much." For example, if I ask them to give one tael of silver for this bowl of noodles, they will definitely give three taels, and if you don't accept it, they will be angry! ”

The stall owner seemed to be listening to the strange tales of the world, and said in a daze: "This is unlikely!" ”

"Possibly!"

A voice sounded, and at the same time, a silver ingot of five taels "snapped" and fell in front of the stall owner's eyes.

Bai Jinyu looked up, and under the light of the lanterns along the street, Wu Mu was standing beside the banner of the noodle stall in blue clothes and holding her hands, smiling and watching her chat with the stall owner.

When the stall owner saw this, he quickly stood up and let the stool beckon him to sit down.

Bai Jinyu hurriedly beckoned to Umu and said, "Hurry up, this noodle is delicious, you can also eat a bowl of it!" ”

Without her instructions, the stall owner said: "I understand, just the next bowl is exactly the same as Wen Gongzi!" ”

Bai Jinyu smiled and gave the stall owner a thumbs up, and when she turned around, Wumu was already talking to her: "I thought you were in the Tonghuo Restaurant, but you ran to the street!" ”

Bai Jinyuqi said: "You have something to do with me?" ”

Wumu coughed, took out a pair of chopsticks from the chopsticks, pretended to think about it for a long time, and finally said: "Hey, actually, that's tomorrow's monarch's banquet, what are you going to do?" ”

Bai Jinyu took a bite of noodles and said strangely: "What to do, you have to go, tomorrow's dish will definitely be good!" ”

Umu rolled his eyes speechlessly: "Tomorrow the monarch of Chu Li will announce the candidate for the horse, and the horse chosen outside is your ......"

Before he finished speaking, Bai Jinyu waved his hand and said, "No, no, tomorrow's horse must be Fengchen!" ”

Umu was a little surprised: "Really? Doesn't the princess like you? ”

Bai Jinyu said: "The pacification of Lingwei is all the credit of Feng Chen, no matter how ridiculous Chu Li Guojun is, it is impossible for people to return in vain after helping others so much, right?" Besides, Princess Yuhe may have liked me a little before, but I think that after this incident, she will definitely empathize with Fengchen hahahaha! ”

She laughed so happily that Umu laughed too: "Why don't you say anything like 'you must not let Fengchen be a colt' now?" ”

"This time and that time," Bai Jinyu stopped his chopsticks and said firmly: "After my detailed observation, I think Feng Chen is a person...... It's not bad, and besides, there are some things that can't be stopped. ”

Su Lihua's marriage to Fengchen must be the involvement of various relationships and interests, which she can't stop, and she never thought of stopping it.

She came to Xizhao this time mainly because she was worried about Fengchen's bad character, so she wanted to teach him a lesson and prevent him from marrying Yuhe. But after some contact, she now has some understanding of his character, and she is also relieved, she believes that no matter how big or small Su Lihua marries Fengchen in the future, she will be treated well by Fengchen.

At this time, the stall owner served Umu noodles and smiled happily: "It's really a blessing for Sansheng, my small stall actually came to two distinguished customers tonight." ”

Bai Jinyu said with a smile: "Uncle, otherwise, I will write you a few words and frame them on your stall, which guarantees that your business will prosper every day." ”

Bai Jinyu chatted with people for a while, but Wumu didn't speak for a while, and only said after a while: "Brother Wen, what are your plans in the future?" ”

Bai Jinyu listened, patted the big cloth pocket beside him and said, "Of course it's going home, you see that I bought so many gifts to take back and give them away!" ”

Umu couldn't help but look at her cloth bag curiously: "What have you bought, bulging?" ”

Bai Jinyu opened a little pocket and showed him: "You see there is rouge gouache and balm, do you smell this balm is particularly fragrant?" She handed a small box of balm to Umu's nose and said kindly, "How is it?" Is it fragrant or not, do you want to buy some for Qingna? ”

Bai Jinyu waited for Umu's answer, but after waiting for a long time, she found that Umu was staring at her with her eyes fixed.

Just as he was about to ask what was wrong, Wumu said: "Wenyan, can you swim in the water?" ”

Bai Jinyu was stunned and withdrew his arm a little crampedly.

Umu said again: "Have you ever saved a person who fell into the water on a dark night?" ”

Bai Jinyu's waist couldn't help but stiffen, and something seemed to be blocked in his throat. His eyes wanted to glance but didn't dare to glance, but in the end he glanced at Wumu a few times, and said weakly: "You know everything?" ”

Umu seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and smiled unconsciously.

Bai Jinyu looked left and right, and said with a secret expression: "You will help me keep the secret, right?" ”

Umu was stunned for a moment, and found that there was no change after she admitted, but she felt that she was too worried, and couldn't help but relax, and said, "Of course! ”

Bai Jinyu nodded with satisfaction, and at this time, Wumu said again: "Wen Yan, do you remember what Li Zhengmin said about the navel dance?" ”

Bai Jinyu said: "Remember! Didn't you say that it wasn't called a navel dance, it was called a 'spirit whirl'! ”

Umu said: "Yes, I want to jump tomorrow!" ”

Bai Jinyu's eyes widened and he said in surprise: "Really?!" ”

Umu nodded.

Bai Jinyu couldn't help but put down his chopsticks and gave him two applause and said, "Okay, I'll take back what I just said, 'The horse must be Fengchen'!" ”

The corner of Wumu's mouth smiled, and said, "You must come early tomorrow!" ”

Bai Jinyu said: "Okay! ”

After breaking up with Umu, Bai Jinyu went to a few stores to buy some messy things, and when he returned to the inn, it was already dark.

She walked down the street back to the inn with a large bag on her back, and as she walked, she felt more and more that something was wrong, and she vaguely felt that someone seemed to be following behind her. She couldn't help but wonder, could it be that she was targeted by thieves all the way?

Thinking of this, she hurriedly took a breath and prepared to use light skills to shake off the comer, and just lifted her foot.

"Bai Jinyu!"

This familiar voice sounded, Bai Jinyu was immediately stunned, and the body he had just lifted fell back to the ground obediently.

She froze for a moment with her back to the comer, and did not dare to move for a long time, until she could no longer avoid it, and then turned around in a sneer.

After seeing the person clearly, she smiled dryly and said, "Wen Yan." ”

Next.

In the open garden courtyard of the Xizhao Palace, the curtain covers the blue sky, and the brocade paves the ground. Screens, tables, tableware and wine cups, all the furnishings as far as the eye can see are exquisite, and even the trees are decorated with beautiful agate jewels.

The guests from all over the world in the park have already been listed, and all the young people who participated in the recruitment ceremony are here, and there are always as many as thirty or forty people as far as the eye can see, but one person has never arrived.

After a while, the palace man preached: "Wen Yan Gongzi has arrived-"

The eyes of the people lit up and they all looked towards the entrance of the garden.

After a while, I saw an eight-foot man walking forward with a belt fluttering slowly. He was born extremely handsome, the kind of very arrogant handsome, just by looking at it, it makes people feel that he is dustless under his eyes, maybe he doesn't mean it, but this is a kind of alienation that everyone is born with.

He calmly walked to the center of the garden, and as soon as he raised his hand, the flowing water sleeves slowly fell. He bowed to Chu Li, who was at the highest place, and said loudly: "Levy the Luzhou Cuizhu, listen to the banquet, and meet the monarch!" ”

A neat exclamation!

Umu immediately stood up, and the halberd pointed out, "Who do you say you are?!" ”

The man didn't answer at all, his expression was arrogant.

Chu Li was also stunned for a moment, and was stunned for a moment before asking Wen Yan: "Is this ...... What's going on, you say you're a sniffer? That...... Who was that 'Wenyan' before?! ”

Wen Yan saluted again, and said: "Qiyu monarch, there have always been Xiao Xiao's people in the rivers and lakes who have always taken pleasure in defiling my Luzhou Wen family. Recently, I learned that a man came to participate in the election of a son-in-law by pretending to be in the name of my banquet, and he did nothing to ruin my reputation, so he came to your country thousands of miles to show the monarch. My Luzhou Wen clan will not have anything to do with the court of this dynasty, let alone marry his royal family, and I hope that the monarch will correct my Wen family. ”

He spoke proudly, and his words were proud, but they were not annoying, but rather gave people the feeling that they should be so.

"Huh?!" Chu Li was completely stunned. The audience was even more boiling, and the noise sounded.

"And where is she?" In the chaos, Feng Chen stood up, and a look of fear appeared on his face for a moment.

Maybe it was His Royal Highness of his own country, who gave some thin noodles when he heard the banquet, and did not ignore it like he did with Umu. But he just moved his gaze to Feng Chen, looked at him colorlessly for a while, and said, "I had a fight last night, and I don't know where I ran to." ”

Feng Chen was silent for a moment, and asked in a deep voice: "Who is she, where is she from, and which disciple?" ”

Wen Yan looked directly at him and said word by word: "I don't know anything." ”

In this way, Bai Jinyu disappeared into Xizhao and disappeared from everyone's sight, like a gust of wind, and suddenly disappeared like a gust of wind.

Chu Liguo didn't know if he was tired, so he didn't pursue the matter of the fake news banquet too much.

Soon after, the people of the world knew the news that Feng Chen was elected as the West Zhao concubine.

But no one knew that Bai Jinyu was hiding among the disciples brought by Wen Yan, and returned to Cuizhu with him unconsciously.
