In the inner hall, the atmosphere was a little depressing, Zhou Qing's face was gloomy, and there was murderous intent surging in his eyes, obviously what King Qi had done made him full of murderous intent.

However, in the end, Zhou Qing gritted his teeth and restrained his killing intent, because the current strength of King Qi is also strong, and he also has the secret support of the Dawu Dynasty.

The King of Qi must be removed, but he has to come step by step, and the current Great Zhou can't afford too much turmoil.

Zhou Qing took a deep breath and said slowly: "There is still half a year to go before the government test, this time, who has the best chance to win the palace championship?"

Chu Tianyang was silent for a moment, and said: "In this year's Great Zhou Mansion, there are some good seedlings, but the most outstanding of them is probably Qi Yue of the Second Academy, and now he has opened the sixth vein." ”

"Qi Yue..."Zhou Qing's face couldn't see joy and anger, and he said in a low voice: "The two sons of King Qi are really talents." ”

King Qi has two sons, and Qi Yue ranks second.

"Then it seems that this government test, I'm afraid that the first thing will fall into the hands of this Qi Yue?"

When Chu Tianyang heard this, he groaned slightly, and said: "This is not absolute, our Great Zhou Mansion still has a genius who is better than Qi Yue, if she can enter the First Courtyard, after half a year, she may not be able to fight with Qi Yue." ”

"Oh?" Zhou Qing was stunned, there were more outstanding students in the Great Zhou Mansion than Qi Yue?

Chu Tianyang smiled, then looked at Zhou Yuan on the side, and said with a smile: "Didn't the king forget His Highness's little girlfriend, Su Youwei?"

Hearing Chu Tianyang's ridiculous laughter, Zhou Yuan was also a little embarrassed, and said with a slightly red face: "Youwei is my friend, not a little girlfriend." ”

Zhou Qing also understood at this time, and suddenly said: "You are talking about the little girl who was recommended by Yuan'er to enter the Great Zhou Mansion, right? ”

Chu Tianyang nodded and said, "Well, her name is Su Youwei, but now she has opened the third vein, although she entered the mansion a little later, but this big exam, she will definitely be among the best." ”

"Have you already opened the three veins?" Zhou Qing exclaimed, this speed is indeed quite fast, if it continues, maybe in another year, the eight veins will be opened together and enter the Qi Cultivation Realm.

This little girl named Su Youwei is indeed quite talented and has a bright future.

"It seems that Yuan'er has unearthed a genius for our big Zhou. Zhou Qing smiled at Zhou Yuan.

Chu Tianyang also smiled, and then said a little worriedly: "But according to the information I got, that Qi Yue is also in contact with Su Youwei, and it seems that he wants to win him over, if he really succeeds, I am afraid that Su Youwei will join the second academy if he passes the big exam." ”

He looked at Zhou Yuan and said with a smile: "So I came this time to ask His Highness for help, at least to help us in the first courtyard and stabilize Su Youwei." ”

When Zhou Yuan heard this, his eyes suddenly became sharper, this Qi Yue dared to hit Youwei with his idea, he believed in Su Youwei quite much, Qi Yue would not be able to win him over, but he was worried that Qi Yue would stumble Su Youwei.

"Your Highness, rest assured, I have already arranged for someone to secretly protect Su Youwei and will not let her be harmed. As if knowing what Zhou Yuan was thinking, Chu Tianyang smiled and said.

Zhou Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and nodded lightly: "The mansion master doesn't have to worry, after the big exam, Youwei and I will enter the first courtyard." ”

Chu Tianyang nodded at this time and said with a smile: "As long as His Highness can bring Su Youwei into the First Courtyard, then I can also break the rules and let His Highness enter the First Courtyard." ”

According to the rules, to enter the first courtyard, you must be in the top ten in the big exam to be qualified, and Zhou Yuan has not opened a vein in the past, although he has a little attainment in the source pattern, but I am afraid it is still not enough to enter the top ten, so in Chu Tianyang's opinion, if Zhou Yuan wants to enter the first courtyard, he must still go through some special procedures.

"Being able to make you make concessions according to the rules as the sky, it seems that you are really optimistic about Su Youwei. Zhou Qing couldn't help but laugh and said.

Zhou Yuan looked at Chu Tianyang and smiled: "It's a small luck to be able to make the mansion master value it so much, but as for me, I don't have to let the mansion master break the rules and open the back door in embarrassment, I will do my best to strive for the top ten in the big exam." ”

If it was before, when he couldn't open the pulse, in addition to relying on the source pattern, maybe he really didn't have much to do, but now that his eight veins have appeared, he can officially open the pulse to practice, then he naturally won't worry about not being able to catch up with those people.

Chu Tianyang heard this, and thought that Zhou Yuan was a young man who wanted to save face, and then planned to persuade him again.

"Hehe, just let him try it. Zhou Qing waved his hand at Chu Tianyang, then smiled and said, "Yuan'er's eight veins have appeared, and you can officially practice." ”

When Chu Tianyang heard this, he was taken aback, and then his face couldn't help but pour out with joy, and he hugged his fists and said: "I see, then congratulations to the king, congratulations to His Royal Highness." ”

Only then did he understand why Zhou Qing was so happy today, it turned out that it was a cultivation problem that had plagued Zhou Yuan for many years, and it was finally solved.

"Then I, the first courtyard, will be waiting for His Royal Highness at any time, hehe, I can't say that the government test in half a year, His Royal Highness can also fight for some glory for my first courtyard. Chu Tianyang said with a smile.

Of course, what he said was mostly to cheer, after all, in his opinion, although Zhou Yuan was able to open his pulse and practice now, after all, he was still some time late, so at least in this short period of half a year, I am afraid that it is unlikely to compete with those top students of the Great Zhou Mansion.

And after confirming Su Youwei's matter, Chu Tianyang was obviously a lot more relieved, and after talking to Zhou Qing again, he retreated.

"Now that your eight veins have appeared, start preparing to cultivate tomorrow. Watching Chu Tianyang leave, Zhou Qing also looked at Zhou Yuan and said.

"Good!"

Zhou Yuan nodded lightly, although his slightly thin and immature face was calm, but in those eyes, there was a flame burning, full of impatience.

...

Following.

In front of the big table, Zhou Yuan sat on the right side with his arms in his arms, and on the left side were Zhou Qing and Qin Yu.

On the table, a porcelain bowl about the size of a basin was placed in front of Zhou Yuan, which was filled with brown soup, faintly with a little bit of light emerging, and a rich fragrance rose from it, just taking a sip, it made people's faces red.

"This is the Nine Beast Soup, made from nine kinds of one-grade source beasts, neutralizing each other, for beginners like you, it is a great tonic, in the past, you couldn't open your pulse, so you couldn't eat the source beast meat, lest your body can't bear it, and now, it's okay. Zhou Qing smiled at Zhou Yuan.

Zhou Yuan nodded, he knew that the Nine Beast Soup in front of him was the secret recipe of their royal family, such a bowl, but it was worth a lot of money, ordinary people, I am afraid that half a year's expenses would not be able to cover it.

And the so-called cultivation resources are like this.

"In addition, you don't want to eat ordinary rice in the future. Zhou Qing waved his palm, and a maid served a silver bowl, and in the silver bowl was a bowl of rice.

It's just that this bowl of rice is crystal clear, each one is the same degree of fullness, and on the small rice body, magical lines are faintly visible, exuding extremely gentle source qi fluctuations.

"This is Xuanjing rice, which is a second-grade source food, which contains extremely mild pure source qi, which is easy to absorb, long-term consumption, and can speed up the speed of opening the pulse. ”

"This is Xuanjing rice..."Zhou Yuan looked at this bowl of crystal-like rice curiously, he had already heard of this so-called Xuanjing rice, because this was basically a strategic resource of their Great Zhou Dynasty.

This kind of Xuanjing rice, in terms of medicinal efficacy, may not be as good as the previous Nine Beast Soup, but Xuanjing rice is better than mild, and long-term consumption can improve physical fitness and speed up the speed of pulse opening.

Therefore, the cultivation of Xuanjing rice has always been in the hands of the royal family, used to reward meritorious people and win people's hearts.

Therefore, don't look at this Xuanjing rice as just a second-grade source food, but because of its special effects, it is indescribable in terms of value.

Zhou Qing looked at Zhou Yuan whose eyes were shining, and he couldn't help but smile, he knew that Zhou Yuan had coveted this Xuanjing rice before, but at that time, his eight veins had not appeared, so he couldn't eat it.

"Originally, in my Great Zhou royal family, there was a four-grade source food "Blood Jiao Qingbarley", and its effect was even stronger, and if you take it for a long time, you can even strengthen your body, grow bloody scales, and have a strong defense. Zhou Qing sighed.

"Four-grade source food, blood Jiao barley?" Zhou Yuan licked his lips, this second-grade Xuanjing rice is already very powerful, I don't know how strong the fourth-grade blood Jiao barley will be.

Zhou Qing nodded, and then his expression darkened again, and said: "It's a pity that in the Great Wu Rebellion, these strategic treasures of my Great Zhou royal family were all taken away by the Martial King. ”

Zhou Yuan was stunned, and then couldn't help gritting his teeth, this damn martial king really snatched the treasure that originally belonged to their big Zhou.

"You eat first, and after eating, you're ready to go to cultivation. Zhou Qing restrained his emotions and said to Zhou Yuan.

Zhou Yuan nodded vigorously, although the Martial King was hateful, what he had to do now was to eat hard, and then cultivate hard, only when he became stronger, would he be able to take back what they had lost in Da Zhou.

In front of the untimely death, there is also a bowl of Nine Beasts Soup and Xuanjing Rice.

"You can try to eat if you like it, and if you like it, I will often make it for you in the future. Qin Yu looked at the young man and smiled gently.

Xiao Xiao could feel Qin Yu's kindness, and she was also a little bit, and gently took a sip of the Nine Beast Soup, but it seemed that she was not very interested in this kind of beast soup, but instead picked up the Xuanjing rice and ate it in small bites.

"Whew. ”

And in her arms, he looked at her with blank eyes, wagging his tail and making a pitiful whining sound.

Xiao Xiao glanced at it, thought about it, and brought the Nine Beasts Soup.

"Uh, it's too strong, the medicinal power of the Nine Beast Soup is too strong, ordinary pets can't eat it..."Seeing this, Zhou Qing said with a smile.

Oh!

However, before his voice fell, he saw Tun Tun open his mouth violently, and swallowed the Nine Beast Soup and the bowl with the soup into his big mouth in one bite.

swallowed the Nine Beast Soup in one gulp, swallowed a burp, patted his stomach with his paws, and squinted his eyes, as if he had some unfinished feelings.

Zhou Qing looked at the swallowing without feeling, and couldn't help but be stunned.

"Father, Tuntun is a strange beast, and it is unusual. Looking at this scene, Zhou Yuan couldn't help but laugh.

This swallow can even swallow the boulder in two or three bites, not to mention a bowl of Nine Beast Soup.

Zhou Qing could only smile bitterly and nodded, then picked up the jade bottle next to him and poured himself a bowl of jade-like wine, and the thick aroma of wine emanated.

The aroma of the wine spread, and the young willow, who had been quietly eating Xuanjing rice, raised his eyebrows slightly, and then his clear eyes looked at Zhou Qing.

"This, can you give me some of it?" Zhou Yuan and Qin Yu all looked at the young man in shock, at this time, her delicate face, which had always been indifferent, showed strong interest for the first time.

Zhou Qing was also stunned, especially when he saw Qin Yu's gaze complaining about his indiscriminate drinking in front of juniors, he was even more embarrassed, and said, "This is jadeite brewing, it is a strong wine, and it is not suitable for little girls to drink." ”

However, Xiao Xiao still insisted on staring with bright and clear eyes, which made Zhou Qing smile bitterly, and then asked the maid to put a bottle of jade brew in front of Xiao Xiao.

Xiao Xiaosu held the wine bottle in his hand, tilted his head slightly, revealing his slender neck as white as a swan, and directly poured a big sip of the jade brew, and in an instant, the beautiful face as smooth as jade flew a touch of crimson.

"Delicious. He chuckled out loud, and the laughter was as moving as a silver bell.

Qin Yu glanced at Zhou Qing, Zhou Qing touched his nose and drank with his head bored, he didn't expect that this mysterious girl always looked like she was not interested in anything, but she would like to drink.

Zhou Yuan on the side was very interested, and his untimely death when drinking was undoubtedly more amazing, and at the same time more vivid.

Drinking a bottle of jade brew cleanly, Xiao Xiao's clear eyes also became much more moisturized, she chuckled, touched it lightly in her sleeve, and then a faint light shot out and fell in front of Qin Yu.

"Aunt Qin, I see that your breath is weak, it should be a big loss of body, this little thing, just take it as my wine money. He smiled.

The light gradually dissipated, and finally turned into a verdant lotus flower no more than the size of a palm, and among the lotus, there were eight lotus seeds that shimmered with blue light, like jade carving.

"This is?" Qin Yu looked at the verdant lotus flower in a daze.

Zhou Qing couldn't help but change his complexion, and said in surprise: "This is a green jade lotus seed, which is a rare source material, which can regulate the essence and nourish the body." ”

Zhou Qing's expression was complicated, and he said: "This thing is very useful to you, your body is too weak, this green jade lotus seed can help you lock the lost essence." ”

This green jade lotus seed is quite rare, even in their Great Zhou royal treasury, it is rare.

When Qin Yu heard this, he hurriedly shook his head: "Young, a bottle of jade brew is not worth this." ”

Xiao Xiao just pursed his lips and smiled, then picked up and swallowed, and walked out leisurely, leaving the three people on the table with big eyes and small eyes.

Zhou Yuan scratched his head and said, "Queen Mother, you can accept it first, and then find a chance to compensate for the deceased sister later." ”

He was also quite grateful in his heart for the act of dying young, after all, he knew that Qin Yu's body would be so weak because of him.

Qin Yu and Zhou Qing glanced at each other, and had to nod, but they had more love for the young man in their hearts.

Zhou Yuan smiled, then picked up the Nine Beasts soup and brought it directly to his mouth, gurgling, his throat rolling, and drinking not a drop of the soup in it.

After drinking the Nine Beasts Soup, he picked up the Xuanjing rice again, chewed it in two or three bites, and swallowed it into his stomach.

"It's delicious!" Zhou Yuan praised, this Xuanjing rice was full and soft, and the grains were fragrant.

Call.

A few minutes later, Zhou Yuan put down the bowl and let out a long breath, only to see that the breath was like a white mist, floating in front of him, and his face became red at this time, and his body was like a furnace, with a blazing breath flowing everywhere.

Feeling the blazing breath in his body, Zhou Yuan licked his mouth, his eyes were hot, and next, he was finally going to officially start cultivating!
