Shen Lang glared at Xiao Zhan: "What nonsense are you talking about? Who can I have in the court?"
"Then why do you know so much about the affairs of the court?" Xiao Zhan was really curious. Even Ping Xihou didn't know as much as him, right?
Shen Lang smiled: "My master is the Sword Master of the Northern Qi Dynasty. When the late emperor swept the world, my master helped him. After the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the late emperor named my master the Marquis of Qi. My master refused, saying that he only wanted to practice
Jian, accept some disciples and live a life like a wandering cloud and a wild crane. The late emperor agreed. Although he did not confer an official position on my master, he would send people to send new year gifts to my master every year. For this reason, my master also knows some people.
I also know a little bit about the affairs of the court."
"Some of them were told to me by my master, and some of them were heard when I was traveling across the world with my sword in hand, so I have a relatively profound understanding of the current situation in the Great Zhou Dynasty."
"I see!"
Xiao Zhan believed what Shen Lang said.
Shen Lang grinned at Xiao Zhan: "You are in trouble. The Crown Prince of Prince Yu hates you so much. If Prince Yu really sits on that dragon chair, then you will be in trouble."
Xiao Zhan smiled and asked, "Didn't you offend him too?"
Shen Lang said: "I have no wife, no children and no family. I am just barefoot. Why should I be afraid of wearing shoes?"
Xiao Zhan made a joke: "I have the princess of Beiyi protecting me, so I'm not afraid. At worst, my whole family will go to Beiyi."
Shen Lang laughed loudly: "We have found a way out. Not bad, not bad. If one day comes, Beiyi may be your refuge."
The two chatted all the way back to the inn.
That night, Xiao Zhan and Shen Lang were in the same room, drinking and chatting until dawn.
After dawn, Shen Lang accompanied Xiao Zhan to the medicinal materials trading market. From the beginning to the end of the auction, there were no medicinal materials that Xiao Zhan wanted. Then he returned to the inn and chatted all night long.
When it dawns again.
The once-in-a-decade competition for the top talent list is ushered in!
The game starts at nine o'clock in the morning.
Xiao Zhan took a shower and knocked on Yu Yan's door.
Soon, the door was opened, and Yu Yan appeared in front of Xiao Zhan dressed in red.
Very beautiful!
Like a fairy walking out of a painting!
Xiao Zhan was stunned.
"I've already let you see it all, and you're still stunned. Is it that good-looking?" Yu Yan rolled her eyes.
Xiao Zhan came to his senses and asked: "Have you completed the condensation of the golden elixir?"
"Not yet, but it's coming soon. Sleep in my room tonight and make sure that I complete the condensation of the golden elixir on the last day of the competition so that I can get a good ranking. I will also help you clean up Zhou Yanjun." Yu Yan said with a pretty face.
Slightly red.
Xiao Zhan was silent for half a minute before saying, "Okay."
Then, they called Hei Meier and Shen Lang, had breakfast, and then headed to the venue of the competition.
The competition venue is located on the river bank on the outskirts of Jiangling City. When Xiao Zhan and the others arrived, the river bank was already crowded with people. There were at least 100,000 people who came to participate in the Tianjiao Ranking Competition, and there were even more people who came to watch.
Millions of people!
"Wow, look, Yan Yan is so beautiful in red!"
"Is the man next to her her lover? I've seen the poem he composed. It's simply a work of heaven. His words are so beautiful that he's not a bad match."
"Yu Yan's talent as a lover is unparalleled. It is said that the poem he composed about you not seeing the water of the Yellow River coming from the sky has spread to the imperial capital, and was even praised by the bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion!"
