Chapter 31: The Son-in-law of Western Zhao 2
"She," Umu thought for a moment, "and that's fine." After saying that, I felt that something was wrong, and said: "Actually, I haven't seen her for ten years, and it was okay to look at her when I was a child." β
"My sister was very domineering when she was a child, and she especially loved to grab things with other girls. Later, Yuhe came, and my sister didn't have the heart to rob it anymore, because it was the turn of those sisters and sisters to rob Yuhe with her. β
Bai Jinyu said: "In this way, Yuhe should grow very well." β
Umu held the wine glass to his lips with his slender fingers, paused, and added, "It's when I was a child." β
"Okay, okay." Bai Jinyu was too lazy to fight with him, and continued to think about how to convince Wumu in his heart, so that he could have a correct attitude to deal with the next game.
Both of them were thoughtful for a while, and suddenly heard Wu Mu say gloomily: "Having said that, I have been thinking about a girl all the time these days, and I have never been like this. β
Bai Jinyu narrowed her eyes and smiled evilly: "It's over, you like someone!" β
Umu shook his head.
"Which king's family is this girl? What about the appearance? β
Wumu let out a long sigh and said after a while: "I don't know anything." I don't know which house it is, and I don't know what it looks like. β
I don't know which door is easy to understand, I don't know what it looks like I'm a little confused, Bai Jinyuqi said: "Haven't you seen her, it's just a girl you like?" β
Umu denied it again: "No, I've seen her, but I don't know what she looks like"
Bai Jinyu was stunned when he heard it, and he didn't know how to answer his words for a while.
Umu felt Bai Jinyu's confusion and explained, "She saved my life, but unfortunately at night, I didn't see her clearly. β
Bai Jinyu suddenly realized this, and then sighed: "With your skills and her rescue, then this woman's martial arts must be very good!" She then joked: "The grace of saving your life must be repaid, you have to find this girl well, and then promise to make a good story with your body." β
Umu glanced at him and said, "You think too much." β
Bai Jinyu sneered: "By the way, how did that woman save you?" β
At the mention of this, Wumu's eyebrows gradually tightened, and there was regret in his words: "Actually, I don't know how her martial arts are, maybe she doesn't even know martial arts!" But she's really good...... It was pitch black, and I fell into the river, and she rescued me from the water. β
Bai Jinyu's hand holding the cup shook, and the wine in the cup shook his hand.
Seeing this, Umu was stunned and asked with concern, "What's wrong with Brother Wen?" β
"What a shock!" Bai Jinyu covered up, and at this time, a lock of snot flowed out of her nose, as if deliberately reminding her that she had jumped into the water that night to save people, and she caught a cold because of it.
She hurriedly took out a handkerchief and blew her nose, and said calmly: "I didn't expect you to fall into the water, can't you swim?" When did this happen? β
"I really don't know how to swim," Umu recalled, putting down his glass, "and not long after I entered Bidu the other day, my damn stinky bird was gone, and I found it so late that I accidentally fell into the river." If it weren't for that girl saving me, I'd probably have been dead for days. β
Hearing this, Bai Jinyu suddenly felt as if needles had grown on the stool, and he couldn't sit down steadily.
How could such a coincidence happen?! Umu fell into the river four days ago the night, and it just so happened that she saved someone in the water the night four days ago.
"Are you sure the person who rescued you is a girl...... How can a girl's family have so much effort to save you? "Bai Jinyu was misleading, intentionally or unintentionally.
Wumu looked at her steadily, put his right hand in front of Bai Jinyu's eyes, and said, "I'm sure she's a girl, and when she swam me to the shore, I met her......"
"Oh, don't talk about it!" Bai Jinyu cut off Wumu, and almost didn't take his breath away from his throat in one breath.
She forced herself to calm down, looked at Umu carefully, and made sure that he would never associate herself with the woman who saved people, and then said: "Bi Du is so big, you haven't seen her appearance, this person is nine times out of ten and you can't find it, don't worry about it." β
"No," Wu Mu looked at Bai Jinyu strangely, "You just told me to work hard to find that girl to make a good story, why don't you let me worry about it now?" β
"I was joking, but now I'm serious." Bai Jinyu made a sincere appearance, hoping that Wumu would listen quickly.
The two then talked about some other topics, added a few dishes, and stayed until the end of the restaurant before leaving the restaurant. When they got down the stairs together, Bai Jinyu didn't see the horse that Umu was riding when he came, so he asked curiously: "Brother Umu, where is your good horse?" β
"I should be playing by myself, you wait." As he spoke, he put his fingers between his lips and let out a crisp whistle that pierced through the clouds.
In a short time, the sound of horses' hooves sounded from far and near, and a black steed seemed to have burst out of the night, and galloped awe-inspiringly.
For the first time in his life, Bai Jinyu saw a horse rushing towards him like a human, and couldn't help but sigh: "Brother Wumu's good horse is so majestic!" β
The horse stopped in front of Bai Jinyu, and with the help of a few lights in the restaurant, the horse's whole body seemed to be glowing with a layer of golden light. She had heard that Duoyue was rich in famous horses, and she had been fortunate enough to see several Duoyue horses in the past few years.
But it has to be said that it is not as tall as Umu's shoulder-tall, sparkling-eyed, long-maned satin-tailed mount.
Umu stepped forward and gently wiped the long mane of the black horse, and said proudly: "Of course it is majestic, its name is 'Gale', but it is the best horse I have ever seen in my life!" "On the long street with a bright moon and a clear breeze, a man and a horse stand next to each other, and the picture is sparse.
Bai Jinyu nodded and smiled, a little envious. After that, the two saw that it was not early, so they told each other to go to bed early and see each other tomorrow, and broke up with a lingering mood.
Early the next morning, Bai Jinyu was woken up by the noise outside, and before she could put on her clothes, she heard the guy in the store bang the door, looking like she was eager to open the door and enter.
As soon as he opened the door, Bai Jinyu was startled. I saw that the road from the door to the aisle to the stairs and finally to the door of the inn was already full of people, and when I saw her come out, the crowd seemed to be ignited, and everyone was smiling like a New Year, and the eyes that looked at her were inexplicably filled with joy.
"Come on!" Even the chef in the kitchen ran out and punched her with a spatula.
"Good, good." Bai Jinyu smiled mechanically, inexplicably but affectionately nodding to everyone.
The door of the inn was even more noisy, and over the head, Bai Jinyu saw a beautifully decorated, tall and gorgeous chariot parked on the side of the road, and when she stepped out of the inn, more than a dozen Xizhao guards and palace people appeared out of nowhere, a set of bells and whistles and indescribable grand behavior and ceremonies, and Bai Jinyu was stunned and embarrassed.
It's no wonder that there are only six people left in the powerful Xizhao son-in-law today. In addition to her, the five are Li Yuan, the prince of Gaohuguo, Sima Xuan, the prince of Nanping, Jin Fenglie, the prince of King Li, Wumu, the prince of Duoyue, and Fengchen, the king of Jin.
may be because the other five people are all glorious, in order to support Bai Jinyu, Xizhao Guojun specially arranged such a frontal battle for her.
It is strange that such an eye-catching luxury car travels all the way without attracting onlookers and tailgating. And such a standard of treatment naturally gives a lot of imagination space to the people who don't know the truth, and in their hearts, "Wen Yan" is already a sure thing.
"It's about participation, don't pay so much attention to the results!" got into the car, Bai Jinyu did not forget to lift the curtain and persuade everyone.
"Wen Gongzi, I don't allow you to say such things! We all believe in you, you have to work hard! β
"Yes, yes, the game has been opened, and our whole family has bought you to win!"
"Exactly, I just asked the servants to go back and kill the pigs, just waiting for your good news!"
Bai Jinyu: "Ah......? She pursed her lips and silently lowered the curtain.
It was easy to end everyone's farewell, and the chariot gradually drove away from the street, and after walking for a while, Bai Jinyu found that the chariot and horse were not driving in the direction of the palace.
After an hour, the car finally stopped in a foothill, and the road further up was only a footwalk. After Bai Jinyu got out of the car, he first looked at the terrain, where the rock wall stands, ten thousand skyscrapers, the emerald green peaks are clearly layered, the height is different, and it is very open-minded.
The palace people led Bai Jinyu to a mountain gate, and there were no less than 100 people standing in front of the naturally formed mountain gate at this time. She quickly swept her gaze around, and saw that the small space was divided into two parts.
The upper part is a high platform formed by a boulder, and on it stands Chu Li, the monarch of the Western Zhao Kingdom, today he did not bring his queen and princess to attend, and a man stood on the stage.
The following part is the five camps that are competing in addition to Bai Jinyu, and each camp has as few as four or five people, such as Fengchen; There are more than thirty or forty people, such as Li Yuan, the son of Gao Huguo.
Compared with herself, Bai Jinyu suddenly missed the previous scenes where Sima Xuan and Cheng Zhou led a group of people to shout and cheer around her.
It's a pity that Cheng Zhou was disqualified from the competition because he was judged to have committed a foul because he shot Fengchen in the last game, and he couldn't continue to fill up the faΓ§ade for her.
Because of this matter, Sima Xuan was probably also approached by his think tank to have a good talk, and today he was much more low-key, and only raised his fist at Bai Jinyu from a distance, expressing his determination to support her to the death.
Looking at it all the way, his eyes suddenly collided with a pair of eyes, which were bright and clear, gentle and quiet, but he couldn't help but make Bai Jinyu alert all of a sudden.
From the eyes to the people, the other party is Fengchen.
His outfit today has always been upright and elegant, his clothes are obedient, his waist is very thin, his hair is meticulously tied, and he is more plump and handsome than in previous days.
Looking at it, Bai Jinyu laughed: On today's glamorous occasion, he deliberately chose a moon-white shirt, as if he wanted to be low-key, but he had no beautiful clothes but had the appearance of an immortal. It simply has the meaning of some beads and tiles, and the wood shows in the forest.
Bai Jinyu smiled, Feng Chen immediately leaned up to a person, this person was white and pure, still a teenager, he glared at Bai Jinyu angrily, as if he was going to draw his sword at her in the next moment.
Bai Jinyu deliberately shook his hand at him familiarly, and sure enough, he was so angry that the young man's brows frowned even tighter.
At this time, Bai Jinyu heard someone shouting her name, and turned her head to find that Umu was waving to him again and again, so she ran towards Umu without saying a word.
When they got closer, Bai Jinyu found that Wumu's sister, Princess Qingna, was also in the queue.
Bai Jinyu's impression of this woman was almost entirely from Wu Mu's mouth, which was as terrifying as a flood beast. Bai Jinyu didn't dare to make a mistake immediately, bowed solemnly to her, and stood aside obediently.
"Brother Wen, do you know what kind of place this is?" Wumu looked up at the surrounding mountains and asked himself: "This is the fishtail mountain in Xizhao, the scenery is quite famous, I really didn't expect to come to play today." β
Play? Bai Jinyu glanced at Qing Na in horror, and saw that she bit her lip, if she hadn't taken this scene into account, I'm afraid she would have slapped it with a palm.
It's just that Wu Mu didn't realize it, and said again: "By the way, do you guess what medicine is sold in Chu Liguojun's gourd today?" β
Bai Jinyu glanced at the dressed man on the high place and said, "I don't know what medicine is, but I know that he is really happy today." β
Bai Jinyu threw a look and motioned for Wumu to look, and sure enough, Chu Li, who was standing in front of the mountain gate, had a happy face, and seemed to be very satisfied with the effect that everyone didn't know at the moment.
Bai Jinyu is no longer surprised by this, although this Chu Li is not a faint monarch, he is definitely not a serious monarch.
In the first contest of the election of a son-in-law, he arranged for a dozen scantily clad beauties to toast the candidates, who knew that those beauties were smeared with a special paste, and as a result, dozens of hairy people did not wash their hands for three days.
In the second competition, he took out a bunch of poems he wrote and asked everyone to pick thorns for him, but in the end, all those who picked thorns were eliminated by him.
The third competition was yesterday, and he was on the way to change the game for a while and change the target for a while, which added difficulty to the assessment very casually.
To put it simply, this Chu Li is a very free and casual lord, and this unpretentious princess son-in-law election shines with the brilliance of his 'wisdom' almost everywhere.
In this relaxed and fresh environment, everyone changed the tension of the previous few days, everyone observed the surrounding mountains and rivers, and their speech and behavior were much more relaxed and casual.
Suddenly, a voice popped out of the crowd and shouted to Umu: "Prince Umu, I heard that the men of your Duoyue Kingdom will dance a kind of crop top dance when they meet the woman they like, is this really the case?" β
