The day for the martial arts competition to recruit a bride is getting closer and closer. The princes and knights from all over the world have arrived in Beijing, and some of them have moved into the academy. When the male students of Zuiyuntang meet their enemies, they are extremely jealous and want to get on the ring to show off immediately.
Next. While preparations for the martial arts competition in Zuiyuntang were in full swing, Qingpingtang was in a league of its own. It was still like an immortal outside the world, but it was just a matter of refining elixirs and cultivating immortality. When Su Yan saw this, he immediately gave up his plan to cut through the wall to steal the light.
The target turned to Leshengtang's side, but unfortunately the only two male seedlings in Leshengtang looked at each other and did not intend to compete.
After class that day, Su Yan was thinking about it, and suddenly he had an idea. He dragged his eldest grandson Yue to the summer resort. The ancients said: Know yourself and the enemy, and you will never be in danger in a hundred battles! If Shu Youtang has a consort, he will become famous.
La!
The eldest son Yue shook his head, sighing that Mr. is such a little money fan, a little money fan!
It's not far from Shuyoutang to the Summer Resort. We were chatting all the way and we arrived in a blink of an eye.
Except for welcoming dignitaries from neighboring countries, the Summer Resort is almost not open to the public. Even Mr. Sitang would not dare to enter casually if there is nothing important. I heard that the people living there are all masters of martial arts who assisted Emperor Rong to unify the world forty years ago.
He was enigmatic and had an extremely eccentric temperament. Rumor has it that when the academy first admitted its first batch of students, some unscrupulous students broke in, and as a result, they had their hair shaved off and were sent to become monks.
Time has passed, and more than a few decades have passed since the founding of the Rong Kingdom. There are only three masters still alive today: Zeyuan, Zigui, and Gaozhi. These three are all elderly, and the younger generations all respectfully call them "elder"
'.
The Summer Resort is located at the highest point of the academy, and snow has already fallen. The two of them got into the snow-covered bamboo forest, and after walking a hundred steps, they suddenly became enlightened. In front of them, they saw a series of peaks with different shapes, which were different from last time.
The mountain peaks seen in hunting places are similar. There are more than a thousand stone steps winding down the mountain. The stone steps are hidden in the canopy of the trees, and there is a hundred-foot cliff on the side. If you are not careful, you will end up with a bloody end.
The eldest grandson was shivering from the cold, and kept talking about it all the way here, but Su Yan grabbed his hand tightly and dragged him to the mountain. The two of them explored the hundred-foot abyss under the cliff, and their hearts suddenly became cold.
The top of the mountain in the distance was swallowed up by clouds, and several pavilions could be vaguely seen on the mountainside. Plum trees climbed out of the courtyard wall along the wall, blending with the clouds and snow in the sky. There was an illusion that heaven and earth were one.
The scenery was suddenly elevated to a fairyland.
Su Yan was so fascinated by the scenery on the mountain that she forgot that there was a cliff less than five steps away from her feet. Changsun Yue did not dare to look down anymore, so he pulled her and ran up.
The person who opened the door for them was a female boss, with chubby cheeks and chubby cheeks. She was wearing a light blue brocade robe, with a pair of petite toes exposed under the robe. Su Yan couldn't help but pinch her face: "You are the one here.
That little baby that Elder Cizeyuan brought!"
The female doll opened her hand in displeasure, "Don't pinch my face, why does everyone have to pinch it?! If you pinch me again, tell grandpa to go!"
Changsun Yue said: "I thought it was strange last time. I didn't hear that Elder Zeyuan had a granddaughter. She couldn't have stolen it from someone else, right?"
The female doll blinked her eyes and said in a sweet voice: "I am my grandfather's granddaughter, you are the one who stole it!"
The eldest grandson refused to give up: "Then do you know your grandfather's name?"
She frowned: "My grandfather is my grandfather!"
Isn't this asking in vain?
The two stopped spending time together, made up false identities and sneaked in. After turning left and right inside the building, they finally found the exit. When they looked up, they saw that it was an ordinary tile-roofed house!
The tile-roofed house stands behind the pavilion, half embedded in the mountain. The moment the door is opened, a gust of cold wind blows in. In front of you is a square patio, and directly above it is a circular hole. The gusts of cold wind are
It is poured in from the hole on the top of the mountain. Except for the patio and some stone pillars and beams, there are no complex buildings around.
The further inside, the larger the space, and the denser the various buildings. Su Yan opened the second door, and what he saw was a jade-paved corridor that was five people wide. As he walked slowly, the walls on both sides were covered with stone.
The patterns became more and more weird, like animals and ghosts, with teeth and claws showing, and they seemed to come alive. She stopped, suddenly thought of something, and immediately looked up. The scene in front of her shocked her.
It's obviously daytime, but why is there already a sky full of stars?
Su Yan took a closer look and discovered with keen eyes that the stars in the sky had not moved. It turned out to be just a mural on the dome.
Changsun Yue repeatedly exclaimed: There is a special cave, it is so powerful!
At the end was a door with a height of three people, with a green paint surface and a picture of a black bird fighting a beast on both sides. They tried their best to open a gap that could barely pass through for one person, and the dizzying white light instantly enveloped her.
Both of them. It took Su Yan a while to adjust to the surrounding environment. He heard the faint sounds of conversation, and there were about ten people inside.
Su Yan peeked in through the crack in the door, but was surprised. He didn't expect such a magnificent little palace to be hidden here. Changsun Yue walked over curiously, and was also quite surprised.
Young men from all over the world gathered together, drinking and drinking together, enjoying a prosperous and prosperous time, a resort of promiscuity and corruption!
The two of them put away their mentality of country people going into the city, calmed down their unbalanced moods, and tried their best to open the door to a wider gap, and then they were forced to squeeze in at the same time.
The dull sound was like thunder in the hall, and the sound of silk and bamboo suddenly stopped. Everyone looked towards the door. There was silence for a moment, and then returned to the previous state. Both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Yan stepped on the carpet under his feet and couldn't help but sigh to the eldest grandson beside him: "When I came here, I instantly felt that the palace was just ordinary. I didn't expect that His Majesty could be so generous in rewarding the founding heroes."
Changsun Yue made a silent gesture and whispered: "There are people here who can't be offended. Let's not talk nonsense. Take a look around and leave immediately."
Su Yan frowned and said displeased: "I'm here to inquire about the enemy's situation. I have to meet with them no matter what. Besides, it's good to eat and drink here. They don't know our identities. If you want to leave, go first. I
Sir, you are not afraid of them."
Changsun Yue suddenly panicked: "Sir, are you crazy? Among them, five are from the four royal families, and ten are powerful officials from various countries. Although the rest are from poor families, they are even harder to mess with. They all say that the children of poor families are noble.
Aloof, I can't say a word. You are so reckless, so don't cause trouble! It's better to just take a look and leave. You don't plan to win this competition, so why are you trying so hard?"
Su Yan smiled slyly: "Of course I don't need to win, and I don't covet rewards. But I am also a teacher after all. The students are so proud, so I have to do something for them."
Changsun Yue felt warm in his heart, and the complaints he had just made disappeared, and he felt a little ashamed.
Su Yan suddenly pulled off the hem of her skirt, pointed to the opposite side and said in surprise: "Isn't this? Why is he here too!"
Changsun Yue followed her hand and was so frightened that she almost sat on the ground. If the boss knew that they had trespassed into the forbidden area without permission, they would not be expelled from the academy! She hurriedly grabbed Su Yan and ran away, but she bumped into him.
I fell in love with Yan Zhen who really wanted to get in.
He casually put on a cloak, a crimson robe with a tight collar and a jade belt around the waist, and the collar hung loosely, making him look very bohemian, but his feminine face combined this unruliness a little, with just the right amount of romantic posture.
A chic demeanor.
The moment Changsun Yue saw him, his head was confused. It took him a while to come back to his senses, and he knelt down with a plop, his face turned pale with fright.
Su Yan looked at his outfit and couldn't help but feel that Hualiuxiang, Hualiuxiang, Hualiuxiang, couldn't help but joked: "Are you here to compete with these stinky men for the little princess, or are you coming to compete with the little princess for a husband?"
Changsun Yue's eyes widened and he quickly dragged her to the ground, "Cousin, don't be surprised! My husband's personality has always been like this, just get used to it..."
Su Yan was pushed to the ground forcibly. She wanted to get up, but the force on her shoulders held her tightly, making her unable to move! Su Yan yelled: "Chang Sun Yue, you are crazy! He is your cousin, how can you be so afraid?
Is this the case?" He winked at Yan Zhen, he frowned reluctantly and helped them up.
Changsun Yue looked at him infatuatedly, watching his eyebrows stretch out a little bit, watching his two light red thin lips look like freshly blooming flowers, and the good smell of his body surrounded him little by little...
Yan Zhenxiao took a half step back and looked at her carefully: "I'm talking to you, why are you still in a state of mind wandering?" His voice was very pleasant, soft and soft, very like a woman, but not pretentious at all.
Changsun Yue seemed to wake up from a dream. He hurriedly collected his emotions, lowered his forehead and apologized softly: "I'm sorry! I just, just..."
"Okay, don't explain!" Su Yan gently patted the red cheek and said: "From now on, we are all our own people, don't take the blame of the general, let's gather the soil for fragrance someday!"
Changsun Yue lowered his head, still a little afraid.
Su Yan suddenly remembered something and turned around to ask Yan Zhen, "Why are you here? Is it possible that you are also planning to compete in martial arts to attract a bride?"
Yan Zhen's expression suddenly changed, and Changsun Yue's expression turned pale as well, and her legs almost collapsed. Fortunately, Su Yan caught her in time, thinking that she was really hopeless!
Yan Zhen blew the broken hair on his forehead, put his hands on his hips, as if he was preparing to fight with someone: "Zuo Qing didn't know what the wrong link was, but he actually asked me to participate. Why should I, a handsome man, be afraid of not marrying someone?"
I can't get a wife if I go out... get... a wife! So I came to him to judge Li'er."
Su Yan agreed with him very much, but this was the rule of the academy. You had to participate even if you didn't want to. To put it bluntly, it was just to save face in front of neighboring countries. Besides, if Yan Zhen was the best, it would not be a huge gain in face.
"You don't need to comment. Zuo Qing also respects the rules of the academy, but since you are here, let me go and eat and drink."
Yan Zhen looked at the scene behind her and couldn't help frowning, "A bunch of stinky men, why are you trying to get in on the fun?"
"Don't worry about this, just go!" After saying that, he held Changsun Yue in one hand and Yan Zhen in the other, stepped on the carpet of hundreds of birds facing the phoenix, and watched the stars twinkling away.
Zuo Qing kept observing Su Yan's side, and when he saw them approaching, he put down the wine glass in his hand.
Su Yan's eyes shifted from the guests to Zuo Qing's appearance today, and his eyes lit up. Today he was wearing a black robe and a snow-white cloak. He had a cold and lonely temperament and was not popular at all.
As soon as she stood still and saluted Zuo Qing and the royal family members, she suddenly found Xilou sitting in the crowd, smiling gently at her. She looked at Zuo Qing in surprise, and then at Xilou.
Are you going to stage a competition between the handsome boys from the academy?
Xilou patted the husk from his palm and led her to his seat without saying a word.
Su Yan caught a glimpse of Zuo Qing's expression and thought he could see a little bit of disappointment. Unexpectedly, he was unmoved and applauded the dancers.
The three of them took their seats, one looked in the mirror and fixed his makeup, the other looked straight at the young men in the hall, wondering what his plans were, and the remaining nymphomaniac kept looking at the beautiful men on both sides of him.
Their eyes wandered. This was the first time that Changsun Yue saw the most handsome man in the academy. Although Zuo Qing was also a stunningly handsome man, just seeing his face was already intimidating. He really didn’t dare to let anyone
If I had some bad thoughts, I would rather lust after these two people in front of me, especially cousin Yan Zhen, a handsome man with an extraordinary appearance and a rare appearance in a hundred years!
It felt like she had kicked a little rabbit in her chest, and it didn't stop from the moment she saw him.
Su Yan raised his arms, held his chin, and began to comment: "The young man opposite Dongshou has an elegant temperament and is the most suitable for our little princess. Unfortunately, he is too feminine and not enough masculine. I am afraid that he will not be able to take responsibility in the future.
; Although the second in the same row is very masculine, it has only been one or two cups of tea since I entered the door. He has already drank a pot of wine. He must be a drunkard and has no serious ability; the third in the same row should be
He is a prince of the royal family, and his temperament is extraordinary. It is a pity that this person has been staring at the dancing girl..." She shook her head and said: "This person is not worthy of our princess!"
Changsun looked at her more expectantly and asked: "What about the fourth one?"
"The fourth one, this guy looks quite normal, but... if you look carefully at his eyes, he keeps staring at Zuo Qing. It seems to me that the martial arts competition is fake, and taking the opportunity to cling to the powerful is the real thing!"
"But if you really want to cling to someone, you should compete in a martial arts competition!"
Yan Zhen couldn't stand listening anymore and said to her: "Idiot! Martial arts competition is only one in a million, wouldn't it be more convenient to go directly to Zuo Qing!"
Changsun Yue suddenly became silent and drank a cup of tea silently.
Xilou nonchalantly brushed off the water stains on the table for Su Yan, and poured a glass of wine to her nonchalantly. Seeing this scene, Changsun couldn't help but think of what everyone had said about his husband, Xilou and Zuo Qing after returning from the hunt.
One is the master who saved her life and helped her find a way to meet her; the other is the master who devoted himself to her and silently accompanied her. Between the two of them, who does the husband like more?
Changsun Yue lamented. It is indeed the right that only beauties have. How could he not have such luck?
Yan Zhen threw his head away angrily, not bothering to look at this scene, but he happened to meet Chang Sun Yue's eyes, which frightened her greatly. He hurriedly avoided his eyes and said stutteringly: "General...I
…”
"What do you want to say?"
Changsun Yue's eyes lit up, "I..."
"I'm too lazy to listen." Yan Zhen said the next sentence and played with his fingers. Changsun Yue felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on him. His whole body suddenly felt cold and he didn't know how to deal with it.
Su Yan smelled the wine, took a sip, and said with satisfaction: "It is indeed the best wine from the Summer Resort. In comparison, all the wine I drank before has become tasteless water. This wine is really good."
Good reputation?"
"Lan Yu." Xilou murmured these two words, his voice was gentle and full of nostalgia, as if he was missing an old friend.
Su Yan couldn't help but become curious, "It sounds like there is an allusion to this wine?"
"Everything has its allusion, whether it is sad or happy, heavy or light, just like this wine. The name 'Lanyu' comes from a piece of clothing woven by Queen Yu. Because she improved the traditional weaving technique, she added
After obtaining the material of peacock feathers, Empress Yu specially named it Lan Yu. Later, Empress Yu passed away, and this elegant name was passed to the summer resort to name the wine."
"Lan Yu? It's a very unique name. Do you know why it's called Lan Yu?"
Xilou shook his head, changed his distracted look, and said with a smile: "I'm not Empress Yu, so I don't know why I'm called Lan Yu. If you like this wine, how about I go ask Elder Zeyuan for a bottle later?"
"
Su Yan leaned back leisurely and looked at him sideways, "You have such a great reputation?"
Yan Zhen also let out a snort at the right time.
Xilou disagreed and said with great interest: "If nothing else, my face is really useful in Ruoshui." While talking, Su Yan had already had two glasses of wine, "Don't think I'm just a small country."
The second son, I have the eldest brother who is the most popular son, and two younger brothers, Wen Tao and Wu Lue, who are deeply loved by my father. I, an abandoned hostage, seem powerless, but over the years, I have relied on this good face.
But I am very popular, so many ladies from famous families are secretly attracted to me, and so many idle people are envious of me... You have to be more careful, I don't know when I will be snatched away!"
Su Yan spit out a mouthful of wine at him and laughed so hard, "Do you want to be shameless? I've never heard anyone praise themselves so much! I won't mention your brother, the future prince, but your brother
The third brother of Wen Tao and Wu Lu, the third son of the Yan Kingdom, he is much better-looking than you, and the most important thing is that he is humbler than you. And look at your narcissistic look, Yan Zhen is a match for you!"
Xilou was unconvinced, "Do you think I'm not good-looking?"
Su Yan held back tears, his face almost turned red, but he still shook his head unyieldingly.
He was so angry that his face trembled: "I used to be the most beautiful man in Ruoshui. I topped the list for three consecutive years and no one has ever broken it!"
"Isn't it broken by me three years later?" Yan Zhen said quietly, while turning around with a sinister and proud face.
His face was livid, and he grabbed Sun Yue, who was watching the show on the side, and asked, "Who do you think is more beautiful, me or Yan Zhen?"
Chang Sun Yue's big, watery eyes blinked, and he said sincerely: "Students don't lie, it is true that the general is more elegant...but the master has another temperament."
Xilou was discouraged.
Yan Zhen did not forget to add fuel to the fire: "Look at your body, which cannot be held up by mud, but you still have the nerve to stick it to my sister Su, you are so shameless!"
Xilou just smiled and didn't answer.
Su Yan pushed him, "Can you say a few words less?" He quickly poured a glass of wine for Xilou, "I advise you not to deceive yourself. Yan Zhen is the most beautiful person in the entire Central Plains and even the world.
Are you competing with him? Wake up quickly and stop being laughed at!"
Xilou puffed up his cheeks, glared at Su Yan angrily, and took a sip of wine unwillingly.
Su Yan felt heavy in his heart: How could this man still act like a woman and be so troublesome!
"That's all, I can't admit my mistake." Seeing that he still hadn't responded, she had to close her eyes and scream: "Xi Lou is the most handsome man in the world, the most elegant young master, and the most unparalleled, intelligent and martial arts master.
manage!"
Xilou then turned around with a smile like a flower, nodded affirmatively and said, "Originally I was going to deny it modestly, but you are so enthusiastic, so I can accept it."
Su Yan gave him an angry look and didn't want to say anything more. He was so narcissistic that he couldn't bear to break his fantasy.
Their conversation was as light as a mosquito in the main hall, but the intimate behavior was very dazzling in Zuo Qing's eyes. He didn't have too many expressions, he just looked away lightly and continued to talk to the guests and drink...
Yansheng raised his head and looked at the ingenious dome of the main hall, and suddenly sighed: "We are all under the same roof, but each family has its own destiny and its own worries."
Zuo Qing suddenly raised his head, his expression unclear, "What are you worried about?"
Yansheng blurted out: "I'm worried about what you're worried about..." He realized what he was doing, and then carefully looked at Zuo Qing's face, and hurriedly knelt down, "I don't dare to speculate on your thoughts, I'm just..."
"Worried about what I am worried about? Oh, what I worry about is the same as every day for ten years, but what worries you in your mind is not what I worry about." He said coldly, "The time is almost up, it's time to invite them back.
