Time flies, and the day of the Nihuang County Lord's son-in-law selection conference has finally arrived. {with}{dream} щ{suimеng][lā}

Early in the morning of this day, Yan Yujin dressed up and ran to the Jingbian Marquis Mansion to urge Shao Shan again and again, as a son-in-law who likes to be lively, and he is also one of the participants in the conference, Yan Yujin has long been a little impatient.

On the same day, a few good friends made an appointment, Yan Yujin came to Shao Shan together, and Xiao Jingrui took Mei Changsu to go, and everyone met in the Jinpeng District of Ningguohou's Mansion.

Of course, now the Jingbian Marquis Mansion naturally has its own special area, but Shao Shan greeted him in advance and placed it next to the Ningguo Marquis Mansion, although Shao Shan and Xiao Jingrui and Yan Yujin intersected, but in fact, his status was equivalent to that of Ningguo Marquis Xie Yu and Yan Marquis.

Outside the Suzaku Gate of Jinling Palace, there is a towering building, called "Windward Building", this is a praise building built according to the royal rite system, since the date of completion, many celebrations in the royal family of Daliang, such as the coming-of-age ceremony of each prince and princess, wedding, etc., are held here, here is also open to all people, it is also regarded as the meaning of the congratulations of all people, the eldest princess was married here.

Although the lord of Nihuang County is not a member of the royal family, she has made great achievements in the world, her prestige is far and wide, and her treatment in the court of Daliang has always been better than that of the princess, so her son-in-law selection meeting was naturally chosen before this windward building.

As early as a month ago, a platform was built on the huge square in front of the windward tower, and a circle of five-color brocade was built around the platform for the magnates to sit and watch, and other ordinary officials did not have such treatment, and the ordinary people in Jinling City could only wait in the distance to listen to the news and chat to relieve their boredom.

Although Yan Yujin was already eager to put on his wings and fly over, Shao Shan was still busy with his own affairs unhurriedly, and he didn't set off until near noon, which naturally brought some complaints from the eldest prince of Yan.

Since it was the first day of the son-in-law selection conference, the emperor was also personally on the windward tower to show his attention to the Nihuang county lord, and after some cumbersome etiquette, the conference began.

The rules of the competition are also very simple, all the contestants are divided into ten groups, two by two in each group, until the final ten winners are determined, and then according to the results of the literary test to determine the ranking, and finally one by one with the Nihuang County Lord to fight, today Yan Yujin and Xiao Jingrui do not have to compete, everyone naturally sat together.

Mei Changsu is the leader of the world's largest gang, and his subordinates have countless masters, although he does not practice martial arts because of physical reasons, but he has a wide range of knowledge, and he has a lot of knowledge about the martial arts of all sects and factions in the world, and Shao Shan himself is a martial arts master, and many martial arts can be seen through at a glance, so the two of them have become the objects of several young people's advice.

And in the midst of such a joke, two distinguished guests finally ushered in the brocade shed of the Marquis of Ningguo's Mansion, the crown prince Xiao Jingxuan and the honorary king Xiao Jinghuan, and their purpose was naturally to come for Mei Changsu, the talented son of the Qilin.

Shao Shan's attitude, these two princes have clearly understood in their hearts, at least in a short period of time, they will not be able to recruit their side, the two princes politely said a few words, and then turned to Mei Changsu in unison.

So far, there are not many people who really know Mei Changsu's identity, Shao Shan watched coldly the battle between the prince and King Yu, the exchange of words, watching their overtures and temptations again and again were easily resolved by Mei Changsu, and sneered in his heart, these two princes thought they were strategizing, and they regarded the future of the world as their own bag, but they didn't know that both of them were the targets of Mei Changsu's attack, and it was too late to regret it in the future, which was really sad and lamentable.

And not long after, the Empress Dowager's will was issued, and everyone went to see her, the Empress Dowager is a real long-lived person, even the Empress Dowager has passed away for many years, but the Empress Dowager is still healthy and healthy, but Shao Shan and the magnates in the palace really have no feelings, and they withdrew soon after, as for Mei Changsu's encounter with the Nihuang County Lord and even King Jing, it was not put in Shao Shan's heart.

Not surprisingly, the Nihuang County Lord wanted Mei Changsu to take charge of the literary examination for her.

In the following days, many masters gradually stood out, the prince's first line, Sima Lei, who was born in the Taiwei Mansion, the first line of Yuwang, Liao Tingjie, who was born in the Zhongsu Marquis Mansion, and You Guangzhi from Dayu, Zheng Cheng, Bailiqi of Beiyan, plus several young masters of Daliang Yan Yujin, Xiao Jingrui, Qin Shangzhi, etc., all had good performances.

Of course, not all the young generations who participated in the competition were going to the Nihuang County Lord, after all, there was only one place, and the difficulty was too great, many people were just trying to show their strength here and fight for a good reputation, and in the competition in the past few days, there were indeed many people who were valued by many powerful people and recruited to their own mansions, which can be regarded as having a place to use.

Shao Shan paid attention to Bailiqi, this Bailiqi is born in horizontal kung fu, the image is thick, and his muscles are like iron, in the previous battle, this Bailiqi obviously hides his strength, and every time he fights with the opponent before he wins with difficulty, it has not attracted anyone's attention at all, but Shao Shan knows that this Bailiqi's martial arts are so high that he is afraid that the Nihuang County Lord will not dare to win easily.

In the following days, Shao Shan did not go to the scene to watch the battle again, and in the eyes of a master like him, the battle on the scene was no different from a child's fight, and it did not arouse his interest at all.

It's just that every evening at ten o'clock, Yan Yujin will come to make a noise, telling the interesting stories of this day's battle, an ordinary battle, from his mouth, as if it has become the ultimate duel between two peerless masters, in Shaoshan's ears, it is definitely a hundred times more exciting than going to the scene to watch.

However, the accident finally came, and at dusk on the seventh day, as soon as Dabi ended, Yan Yujin ran to the Jingbian Marquis Mansion in a hurry, with a solemn face.

As Shao Shan expected, in today's competition, Bailiqi finally broke out, today's Bailiqi's opponent is Qin Shangzhi, a young master of Daliang, with good martial arts, but today's time against Bailiqi, there was not even a single move of Bailiqi, which shocked everyone present at that time.

According to the schedule, tomorrow is the day of the final, when the final ten winners will be decided, and Bailiqi broke out at this time, not without the intention of intimidating all opponents.

Soon, Mu Qing, the little prince of Mu, also arrived at the Jingbian Hou Mansion, and he was already familiar with everyone, and he was not polite, and directly forced Shao Shan to find a way for his sister.
