Chapter 28: The Palace Examination
Looking at the eyes of the girl in front of him who seemed to perceive everything, Gu Shi said slowly.
"There is no prince of appropriate age in the Xiliang royal family for the time being. King Xiliang is very old, and he can't last a few years. The eldest prince, who is the crown prince, is not in good health, and the eldest son of the crown prince is seven years old this year. ”
Zhu Luan seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and smiled in the candlelight.
"That's fine."
Princess Jinyang listened from the sidelines, only to feel frightened.
The moment she heard about the kiss, she was in her heart, but what shocked her even more was the terrifying expansion of the imperial sister's thinking.
She was born and raised in the midst of a prosperous age, but she experienced upheaval at a young age and understood what it meant to be born in adversity.
But she really didn't know that the situation was so serious.
She didn't even know that this crisis had actually affected her.
No, maybe it didn't affect it, after all, even if it is a relationship, there is a clan daughter in terms of sparseness, and there is a princess in peace in terms of relatives.
It is enough to sell the daughter of the clan well, and if you want to form a strong alliance, the emperor's own daughter should be on the field, and it is not her turn.
She is no longer the emperor's daughter.
Princess Jinyang exhaled slowly.
Relieved, she looked at Zhu Luan beside her.
Regardless of anything else, although it does not affect her for the time being, it is about the alliance and the situation of Da Zhou.
It's just that the royal sister, who has been reborn for a year, has already noticed everything in advance.
She knew that the imperial sister's way of thinking was different from that of ordinary people, and in the past, she only looked up to the existence of Princess Yingluan.
But in this life when the imperial sister was reborn and returned, she almost went through everything with that person, Princess Jinyang originally thought that in this life, even if it was only a little bit, she could get close to her sister.
A little bit is fine.
"Actually, I should have noticed it," just when Princess Jinyang fell into self-doubt, Zhu Luan glanced at her and smiled, "What is missing is just a little experience." ”
The experience of uniting the signs into everything.
There is also a sensitivity that is different from ordinary people.
Gu Shi on the opposite side looked at the sisters helplessly, looking at the girl who didn't know how special she was.
It seems that this kind of thing is not inherited by blood.
"It seems that this national test is a bargaining chip that Da Zhou gave to Xiliang in advance." Zhu Luan looked at Gu Shi's expression and pursed his lips.
Da Zhou and Xiliang formed an alliance, and she was actually happy to see it.
This at least proves that the current high-level of Da Zhou has not been completely blinded. Sang Yu is not dead yet, and he wants to save face so much that he doesn't care about the safety of the whole country.
By this time, Sang Yu and the people behind him should have felt the lack of combat power of the Great Zhou.
In order to consolidate the new regime, they had to eliminate the so-called remnants of the Queen of Heaven, and at this time, they must have known that it would be too late to restore their combat strength.
Houjin Wangting will not wait for the opponent to recover, but will only wait for Da Zhou to break through the Tieqing Great Wall when he shows a little fatigue.
Since their own capabilities are insufficient, then alliance is the only solution.
Only then did the entire Great Zhou Dynasty from top to bottom, abandon the previous suspicions with Xiliang, and form a good relationship between the two countries.
According to the information received by Zhu Luan, the alliance between the two countries should not have been formally concluded and is in a period of imminent success.
And the Xiliang Sword Saint, as the leader of the Xiliang cultivation world, is also the concubine of the Xiliang royal family, so he is naturally the main target of the competition.
No wonder I can get the treatment of being personally accompanied by the Empress of the Great Zhou.
The emperor personally came forward to show that Da Zhou, the former overlord, was a little cheap, and Sang Yu was a great grandmaster who was on an equal footing with the other party in the cultivation world, and he also came forward at a lower price.
As a result, will Sima Hui's woman appear?
Zhu Luan sighed with great complexity in his heart.
Nine years have passed, and the queens of the Great Zhou have begun to do this.
But at this time, Zhu Luan remembered a new thing.
Although Fanyin Temple does not have a clear position like Xiliang Sword Pavilion, after the death of Tianhou Niangniang, it is still gradually inclined to the Xiliang royal family in the eyes of the world, and it has the same origin as Xiliang Sword Pavilion, and in a sense, it also belongs to the forces of the Xiliang cultivation world.
So the Zenzi of Fanyin Temple who has revealed his identity......
Will they be treated equally?
……
……
The answer is yes.
On the first day of March, a sunny day.
A month after the end of the examination, the Danfeng Gate at the front of the Daming Palace ushered in a group of special young people.
In the distance, there were countless people standing along the street, and in the black crowd, everyone's eyes could be seen full of respect and worship.
Because people of all ages, in their eyes, without exception.
are all real Wenqu stars and martial arts stars.
Under the guidance of the ceremonial officer, two hundred Wen test tribute students and one hundred martial test tribute students stood under the Danfeng Gate in clean clothes, and their faces were full of glory.
The ceremonial officer who led the procession looked at the front of the middle of the line while checking the roster.
Gongsheng's team is indeed noble and rare, but this year's team is really special.
What's special is that in the middle of Wen Gongsheng and Wu Gongsheng, there is actually a team.
It has been a practice for decades that there is a team of candidates for the literary examination and a team of candidates for the martial arts examination.
But this year, there are candidates who have won both the literary and martial arts exams.
The ceremonial officials didn't know how to arrange it, and in the end, they could only let such candidates stand in the middle of the two teams.
And what's even more shocking.
That team was in the middle and at the front.
After the ceremonial officer counted the roster, he glanced back, his eyes full of awe.
is not only both civil and military, but also directly occupies the top three.
Back then, Lord Furushi was just standing at the front alone, but this year there were three people in the team.
The two boys and girls at the front were still so young.
The afterlife is terrifying......
The ceremonial officer took one last look at the figures of the two men, shook his head and walked forward.
This particular column was supposed to be three people.
But at this moment, there are only two people standing under the Danfeng Gate.
Zhu Luan stood in front of the majestic Danfeng Gate, while Duan Lizheng stood beside her, who was only looking at her.
"Don't just look at me," Zhu Luan said with a smile, "Shouldn't you feel the atmosphere for the rare palace test?" ”
"But I haven't seen it in a month." Duan Lizheng said seriously.
Zhu Luan always felt that he had heard someone say this......
However, she did retreat for a month in the Red Sleeve Jiquan Pavilion after the exam.
In order to save his own life and consolidate the realm.
Early this morning, she had just come out of the customs.
Go out of the customs to participate in the temple examination.
Duan Lizheng looked at the girl in front of him, and felt that it was really bad for him to look at her like this, but it was not the first time he came to Danfengmen, let alone the first time he came to Danfengmen with her, and he didn't think there was anything else to look at.
Although the last time I came with her was when I visited Daming Palace at night.
He looked around for a moment, and finally remembered someone, and spoke with a blank face.
"Isn't that Zen Highness going to participate in the temple exam?"
"No, he participated," Zhu Luan raised his head, looked through the Danfeng Gate, looked at a step in front of the main hall, and a step in front of the Xiliang Sword Saint's honor guard, and smiled slightly.
"But he probably had to sit next to His Majesty the Emperor to participate."
