Chapter 3 Wuji Continent, the country of Dongling
"One of them is the recruitment of a son-in-law today. β
Chu Zhen paused, and then said: "I, Chu, have been appreciating talented people all my life, and the people here today include the people of my southern city, and there is no shortage of outsiders, today I will officially announce in front of you, no matter who you are, but whoever is my son-in-law of Chu does not need to give any bride price, on the contrary, where I live, I will build a mansion and give it to that person, and that person will govern this southern city with me." If I am not there, he will be the lord of this southern city, and he will have the same rights as me!!"
As soon as the voice fell, the venue was as if the needle was falling and could be heard, and there was no noise at all. Time seems to have stopped, freezing this place.
At this time, it was the wax moon, but no one felt cold, after all, Chu Zhen's words were too shocking, as if they had dispersed all the cold qi.
'Wow'
After a few breaths, the audience was in an uproar, and the voices of exclamation were endless: "This kind of treatment ......" Many people said dumbly.
"If I had known this, even if the chance of success was only one in ten thousand, I would definitely have stepped into the ring to give it a try, but unfortunately I am the daughter of the city lord who is already beautiful, and when she becomes the son-in-law of the city lord, she can not only hold such a beauty, but also have that kind of wealth and power. This kind of temptation is really a human being."
There was a chorus of echo all around.
Chu Zhen took in everyone's expressions, shook his head with a smile, and after seeing that the discussion in the audience had slowed down a little, he said in a deep voice: "Second, the rules of today's game have been changed. β
Chu Zhen paused for a while, and then said: " By the end of the registration day, I counted the people on the roster many times, there were as many as forty people, but the people present today were a little less, after careful consideration, I decided to change the rules slightly, this competition is not a one-day thing, the time is the same as before, set to seven days, within these seven days, the people of the competition can stay in my city lord's mansion until the end of the competition, as for the first place, will accept a challenge a month later, the challenge can only be recorded in the registration book but not present, if no one challenges at that time, then the first place will be my Chu someone's future son-in-lawγ β
"Lord Castle, why did you have to wait for that month?" asked someone in the audience.
Chu Zhen smiled and said: "It can be regarded as a little selfishness of someone in Chu, Yan'er, this girl has been with me for more than ten years, although she is usually rude, but to me as a father, it can be regarded as quite filial, I Chu someone is such a daughter, she is already a baby on weekdays, and now she is about to marry a wife, and she will go with her husband to finish this life in the future." I think she can spend more time with me, and this second thing is also the little girl's own request. I hope you can bear with me. β
After the words were spoken, Chu Zhen looked at Chu Yan beside him, with reluctance in his eyes.
How could Chu Yan not see Chu Zhen's reluctance, that is, she stretched out her hands from her sleeves to hold Chu Zhen's arm, and said softly: "No matter who Yan'er will marry, Yan'er will always be her father's good daughter, and Yan'er can't bear her father." β
Chu Zhen was very pleased, nodded, patted Chu Yan's hands, and said softly: "Dad knows, dad knows, Yan'er is ......."
Everyone fell silent. No one wanted to disturb the father and daughter.
This scene touched Li Yanting a little, and his nose was also a little sour, and the person who had been hidden in his heart for many years came out again, that person had broad shoulders and a majestic figure, but it was just a back, and he always refused to turn around and let Li Yanting see his silhouette clearly. For many years, every time he was sad and lonely, this back was his sustenance, comforting him, accompanying him, and never leaving.
That back is naturally his father, the person who makes Li Yanting both worry and hate.
Li Yanting looked up at the snow in the sky, and he was a little distracted, and the fine snow quietly passed his face and melted.
After Li Yanting came back to his senses, he laughed a little self-deprecatingly. Looking at Chu Yan, she actually had a good impression, no matter what outsiders said about her rude and willful young lady, but that filial piety and reluctance in her eyes were definitely not pretentious.
Stage. That Chu Yan had been staring at Li Yanting since the beginning, full of curiosity in her heart, why this scene would make the latter behave like this. Looking at those eyes, they seemed to be slightly red, and their eyes were full of envy, gratification, and warmth. Chu Yan asked silently in her heart.
Li Yanting saw that Chu Yan was like this, his heartbeat was actually a little faster, he had denied it, the latter was beautiful, he didn't hate her in his heart, and even had some favorites, at this time, the girl's eyes were extremely attractive, making it inevitable that she would be a little difficult to extricate herself.
"No, my two identities are very different, don't be delusional. Li Yanting shook his head and said to himself.
"Poof," Chu Yan pursed her lips and chuckled when she saw Li Yanting's appearance.
This scene, everyone in the audience and Chu Zhen on the stage did not see it, but they were all in full view.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the third, I, Chu someone, am about to announce it. After Chu Zhen came back to his senses, he first whispered a few words to his attendant, and asked the attendant to accompany Chu Yan back to the house, and then said: "As you all know, since ancient times, after the 'Wuji' ** body and divine realm cultivation were exchanged for the peace of mankind, this vast continent has been peaceful to this day, and in order to mourn the act of 'Wuji', this continent is called 'Wuji Continent'. β
Everyone listened to the intoxication, this deed has been passed down from generation to generation, and has long been classified as a myth. Now from the mouth of the city lord, it is inevitable that people's thoughts will fly away, and everyone's eyes are full of passionate worship, and Li Yanting is no exception.
Chu Zhen continued: "The Wuji Continent is extremely wide, and above the continent, 'Dongling', 'Xishuang', and 'Nanyue', the Three Kingdoms have formed a three-legged trend. The land to the north is the forest where the demon beasts inhabit, also known as the 'beast realm'. β
Chu Zhen saw that everyone was listening very carefully, and after a pause, he continued: "Among them, the 'Nanyue' country is the most powerful, and only after the alliance between the two countries of my 'Dongling' and 'Xishuang' can we reach the trend of checks and balances. β
"Your Majesty, since the age of thirty, has rushed to the sixth order of the soul path and ascended the throne. For more than ten years, His Majesty has made great efforts to govern the country, accepted good advice, encouraged agriculture and business, and the people of Dongling lived and worked in peace and contentment. β
Chu Zhen's voice was high, his face was full of reverence, and everyone said in unison: "Long live Your Majesty." β
Chu Zhen continued: "Your Majesty Longen, I specially sent Chu to govern this southern city, and until yesterday, the third major event was ...... After a month's time, Your Majesty will override my Nancheng and personally preside over the marriage of my little daughter. β
Chu Zhen was excited, and everyone in the audience was even more victorious.
