Chapter 246: Elephant Mountain

Xu Qingyan was confused and walked out of Qinghe Palace, Xiangshan martial arts?

Isn't it the same as today's talent competition, it is a martial arts competition between the Great Zhou and the Four Kingdoms.

If that's the case, maybe she'll be able to help.

Wen Dou can't compare to her, martial arts, according to her current strength, looking at the world, it is estimated that there are few people who are her opponents.

However, given that tomorrow is a competition in full view of everyone, some of her immortal methods may not be used, such as spells and spells.

The only thing that can be used is spiritual power and light power, plus the hidden weapon silver needle and coercion, it should be enough to deal with it.

I just don't know what it will be compared to? What are the gauges?

After thinking about it, the palace gate had arrived, and Gonggong Zhao raised his hand and said with a smile: "County lord, the palace gate has arrived, and the old slave can only be sent here." “

Xu Qingyan came back to her senses and bowed slightly to Father-in-law Zhao: "Thank you father-in-law for leading the way." “

"The county lord is polite, this is the duty of the old slave, since the county lord has arrived, the old slave should also go back to serve the emperor."

Xu Qingyan bowed: "Father-in-law walks slowly." ”

Seeing Zhao Gonggong's figure walking away, Xu Qingyan turned around and walked towards the palace.

Outside the palace gate, Lingxian and Zelan had been waiting here, and when they saw Xu Qingyan coming out, they hurriedly stepped forward.

"Miss, why have you been there for so long, has the princess's poison been cured?" Zeeland asked.

Lingxian glared at her, "It's stupid, you don't need to ask, Miss dares to reveal the emperor's list, she is naturally sure, and besides, Miss is so powerful, what poison she can't solve." “

Zelan scratched his head embarrassedly: "It's also oh, why did the young lady go for so long?" “

The young lady has been gone for two hours.

"After detoxification, the emperor will leave me with a banquet." Xu Qingyan explained.

"Wow, when the young lady sees the emperor, what does the emperor look like?" Zeelan asked excitedly.

She grew up in the countryside since she was a child, and before she sold herself, she was just an ordinary peasant child, and the emperor was simply a fairy-like figure to them.

Xu Qingyan walked forward: "Your Majesty, full of majesty........." The words behind were raised in the wind, and I couldn't hear it clearly.

Thinking about tomorrow's trip to Xiangshan, her eyes were still dark, and before returning to Ranyuan, Xu Qingyan turned to Qingwangfu.

Qingwang Mansion, Zhou Xinrou just went back to the room and sat down, and he heard a report from the next person that the county lord of Le'an had come to visit.

I couldn't help but be a little surprised, looking at the sky outside, it was almost dinner, why did she come.

Generally, the door-to-door visit is selected in the morning, unless it is good for the family or there is an emergency.

Thinking of the fact that when she left the palace, Zhao Gonggong summoned her, and the county lord of Xinrou guessed that it should be the latter.

Hurriedly and simply packed up his clothes, and took Ayu to the front hall.

In the front hall, Xu Qingyan was giving Princess Qing a salute.

"Le'an has seen the princess, and the princess is blessed with Jin'an."

"Good boy, get up quickly." Princess Qing smiled and helped Xu Qingyan up.

As soon as he stood still, he heard the voice of the county lord of Xinrou coming from outside the flower hall, "Qingyan, it's so late, why are you here?" “

Seeing her daughter running in with her skirt, Princess Qing frowned and reprimanded: "Look at what you look like, how many times have I told you, the girl's family should pay attention to her manners when walking, sitting and lying down." ”

The county lord of Xinrou pouted and said, "Mother concubine..... It's not outside, it's at home, and it's so much, it's not tired. ”

Princess Qing couldn't see her lazy look, so she wanted to give a few more sentences, but because Xu Qingyan was here, she had to do it.

"You, forget it, for the sake of the lord of Le'an County today, I will let you go for the time being."

After that, he got up and said, "You little sisters talk first, I'll go and tell the kitchen to cook some good dishes, and Le'an will keep this meal for dinner." “

Xu Qingyan nodded in thanks.

Seeing that the concubine was gone, the county lord of Xinrou hurriedly beckoned Xu Qingyan to sit down, and let Yahuan serve tea, and then said: "Qingyan, you come here at this time, do you have something to do with me?" ”

Xu Qingyan nodded: "Yes, if there is no urgency, it will be late this day, how can I come to the door to bother." "Let's just say what I mean.

The county lord of Xinrou was a little surprised when he heard this: "The emperor summoned you for this?" ”

"Well, the emperor only mentioned it so casually, and said something specific, let me ask you."

In fact, of course, this is not the case, according to Xu Qingyan, the promotion of nutrient solution is the main purpose of the emperor to summon her.

As for letting her go to Xiangshan, it should be a temporary idea.

"Oh, this, I'll tell you..........."

The county lord of Xinrou suddenly came to his senses, and told the story of the Xiangshan martial arts from beginning to end.

Xu Qingyan sat on the side, serving tea and listening quietly.

Sure enough, things were as she expected, and Xiangshan and his entourage were martial arts competitions with the four countries of the Great Zhou and the four countries once every three years.

The competition is divided into three nine games, which are foot shooting, mounted archery and hunting.

There are three races in each event, divided into individual and team competitions, and the competition also has lottery heads, which are different every year, and I don't know what it will be this year?

After dinner in King Qing's Mansion, Xu Qingyan returned to Ran Garden.

The next day, just after midnight, Xu Qingyan got up, washed up, had a simple breakfast, and drove to the north gate with the two girls.

Yesterday, the county lord of Xinrou told her that she would gather at the north city gate at three o'clock.

A quarter of an hour later, when the carriage reached the north gate, there was already a long queue of carriages at the gate.

Ayu, who was beside the county lord of Xinrou, was standing by the city gate at this time, looking forward to it.

Seeing Zeeland coming in a car, he hurriedly waved in their direction.

The carriage stopped, Xu Qingyan lifted the curtain, and saw Ayu walking close to her and saluting her

"The slave has seen the county lord of Le'an."

"Excuse me, where is your county lord?"

"Back to the county lord, in front, today all the families gathered here to wait for departure, the county lord is afraid that there are too many carriages, you can't find it for a while, so he specially let the slaves and maids wait here to guide you"

"Well, that's bothering you." Xu Qingyan said with a smile.

"The county lord is polite, this is the slave's business." After that, he jumped on the wheel and sat down with Zelan.

The carriage of King Qing's Mansion was in the middle of the long queue at the gate, and Zelan drove the carriage over according to Ayu's instructions.

It happened that the county lord of Xinrou lifted the curtain and looked out, and when he saw Xu Qingyan coming, he hurriedly waved to her.

Xu Qingyan took the spirit immortal to board the carriage of the county lord of Xinrou and sent Zelan back.

Let her wait on Suzaku Street at the right time, and if a patient from yesterday comes to her, she will say that she has something to do today, and when she is done, she will go tomorrow as promised.

Since it was said yesterday, it is naturally not good, and it is not clear that the sick pigeon is released.

Yesterday, there were several seriously ill patients, and she will go for acupuncture today, but now she can't do it, so naturally she has to send someone to explain one or two.

The county lord of Tongxinrou waited in the carriage for nearly a quarter of an hour before he saw Emperor Zhou Qing come out with everyone in the palace.

Today, instead of riding the royal horse, he rode a red horse, escorted by hundreds of guards, and behind him was the frame of the queen mother and the princes and princesses.

After they walked by, the carriage of King Qing's Mansion slowly started.

Xiangshan, located 20 miles north of the capital, has a large enclosure at the foot of the mountain, covering a wide area.

Twenty miles, only half an hour by carriage.

Taking this opportunity, the county lord of Xinrou told the situation of the imperial garden on the day of the state banquet.

The reaction of the women was already within Xu Qingyan's expectations, so after the county lord of Xinrou finished speaking, she didn't show much excitement.

And she won 10,000 taels of silver, and she has solved the urgent need in front of her.

Half an hour later, the carriage stopped, and Xu Qingyan and the county lord of Xinrou got out of the car, and saw a big open space in front of them.

In the middle of the open space, there is a semi-circular platform with a total length of kilometers, and in the middle of the high platform, several brown-red wooden chairs are placed under the bright yellow umbrella.

Emperor Zhou Qing led the queen and the princesses to the high platform, and when they sat down in the middle, the civil and military officials led their families and sat down one by one according to the official rank.

The envoys of the four countries sat on either side.

Xu Qingyan sat beside the county lord of Xinrou, and her eyes couldn't stop looking around.

In the open space in front of them, a number of grass targets were set up, and under the long corridor on the west side, dozens of tall horses lined up.

As the drums sounded, the noise died down, and the fight was about to begin.

"Your Majesty, how is this year's lottery change?" The Beiyi envoy said in a loud voice.

Emperor Zhou Qing's heart suddenly burst into action, and he said with a smile on his face: "What lottery does the envoy want to bet on?" ”

The Beiyi envoy said slowly: "In my opinion, it's really not interesting to gamble on some food and property every time, why don't you change it to a bigger one this time?" “

In previous years, the winning side gave 400,000 taels worth of goods, which were generally cloth and grain.

Three years ago, Da Zhou was defeated, and in the competition with the four countries, he only won Nanqing, which was slightly weaker, and lost 1.2 million taels at once.

As a result, the treasury of the Great Zhou, which was not full in the first place, was almost emptied.

"What's the a**?" Emperor Zhou Qing said in a deep voice.

The hand under the sleeve was secretly clenched, and he had already guessed what the Beiyi envoy would say next. 2k reading web
