(The first chapter of 2003, Xiaofeng here wishes everyone a Happy New Year. Congratulations to all the readers for your wealth and many beauties!)
The Longzhong Empire, as one of the five great empires in the Immortal and Demon Continent that backs the Yanshan Principality, can be imagined.
As the capital of the Longzhong Empire, you can tell with your toes that it must be bustling and luxurious to the extreme. At least, for a small country like the Yanshan Principality that relies on a large empire to survive with hundreds of people, it is definitely a luxurious place to the extreme.
.
Lin Kaigu took Lin Xuan and Man Niu to Dragon City, the capital of the Longzhong Empire! Here, Lin Xuan truly saw the prosperity of this world.
The street is ten meters wide and is surrounded by shops of three or more floors. There is an endless stream of people coming and going, which is also because the road is wide enough. Otherwise, people would have to tiptoe and rub their heels while walking. Despite this, it is still difficult for carriages to move on the wide street.
walk.
But people in this world are equally smart, and there are lanes of about two meters on both sides. This is somewhat different from Lin Xuan's understanding. The sidewalk has become a lane, and the original lane is walked by people.
The strange thing doesn't stop there. Various advertisements are posted on the walls of the streets. People in this world actually understand the effect of advertising.
Without stopping too much, Lin Kaigu took Lin Xuan directly through the busy street and came to a fairly small courtyard. This courtyard was not on the main street, but in a branching alley. However,
Although it is an alley, it is more lively than the capital of the principality where Lin Xuan is located.
Coupled with the incomparable majesty of the huge courtyard gate, it is guarded by two masters who have reached the fusion stage! Lin Xuan felt a little awkward. Could it be that his father knew such a big shot?
"Haha, Brother Lin! I have received your letter a long time ago. I have been looking forward to it, and today I finally got you. This is Mr. Ling. He is really handsome. You can tell at a glance that your future achievements will be limitless!
"A middle-aged fat man who was about the same age as Lin Kaigu and belonged to Lin Xuan's father's group came quickly from the yard.
Even though he has a bit of a potbelly, he walks without any sway. One look at it and you can tell that this person must be an expert. At least, he is as expert as Lin Xuan's father.
"Brother Mu, you should have paid a visit in person a long time ago, but you can't get away from everything. This is Quanzi, Xuan'er, and this is you Mu Qinggang, Uncle Mu!" Lin Kaigu showed a smile on his serious face, but in
When he turned to Lin Xuan, he looked majestic again.
In Lin Xuan's memory, his father's image has long been stereotyped. He is serious and unsmiling. Today, when he saw his father, he smiled for the first time. It seemed that Mu Qinggang must have been his father's best friend when he was young.
Lin Xuan stepped forward respectfully and bowed.
"Hello Uncle Mu!"
"Haha, there's no need for false etiquette. Those red tapes were something your father and I hated the most when we were young. Come on, come on, come in quickly!" Mu Qinggang stretched out his hand to grab Lin Kaigu. It's rare for the two old friends to see each other.
There is so much to say.
Sure enough, Lin Xuan followed behind him "obediently" without looking away! He secretly listened to the two of them talking about past events, saying a few words and laughing a few times.
Although he was not squinting, Lin Xuan still roughly estimated the size of the courtyard. It was over a hundred square meters! It might be reasonable to have such a huge courtyard in a mountain or a poorer place, but where is this place?
?This is the capital of the Longzhong Empire. In this land where every inch of the land is contested, there is such a huge courtyard, plus some powerful servants.
Lin Xuan was even more sure that this person was extraordinary.
"Don't worry, your matter is my, Mu Qinggang's matter. If you hadn't rescued me from the tiger's mouth with all your might, where would I be today? Come here, immediately send a letter to Longzhong College, saying that I will recommend you this year
The enrollment quota has been determined, and the name is Lin Xuan!" The fat middle-aged man waved his hand and immediately gave the order.
But Lin Kaigu frowned.
"Brother, since I call you brother, I don't treat you as an outsider. But you should know the situation of Longzhong Empire better than me now. If you recommended Xuan'er normally, I would not refuse. But now..."
When Lin Kaigu said this, Lin Xuan suddenly found that the fat man was also a little hesitant. He looked at Lin Xuan's father, and then at Lin Xuan. The originally fat faces suddenly squeezed together, and it was obvious that he was also a little hesitant.
Undecided.
"Nephew Lin Xuan, let me ask you, are you confident in winning the top ten in the annual competition of Longzhong College!" Mu Qinggang looked at Lin Xuan seriously and asked.
Lin Xuan raised his head, with an unprecedented determination on his face. Why did he come to Longzhong College to talk? What is his ultimate goal? If he doesn't even have the courage to win the top ten, then he, who has the memory of two lifetimes,
The goods can kill some Jiangdong elders.
"Lin Xuan will definitely win the top three!"
Lin Xuan's voice was decisive. This was an opportunity. Although Lin Xuan didn't understand what was involved in Mu Qinggang's walkout, he didn't care. If you don't have a fighting spirit and fear first, what will happen?
"Okay! Haha, I mean brother. Look at your son, just based on this confidence, we should take a gamble, right? Besides, this is not why you came to me. You actually chose it, why did you retreat at this time?
Life and death are determined by destiny, wealth is in heaven! Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. The worst is that if you and I retire, won't we be able to support our family?" After receiving Lin Xuan's affirmation and adding some inside information, Mu Qinggang's face once again changed.
The smile returned.
Lin Kaigu glanced at his son and finally relaxed his brows. Ever since he agreed to Lin Xuan's admission to Hanlin Academy, hadn't everything been doomed? Is it still too late to turn back now?
Putting aside the thoughts in their minds, Lin Kaigu and Mu Qinggang walked side by side towards the hall. Lin Xuan and the others naturally did not have the qualifications, so they were led to rest by the housekeeper of the Mu family.
The night in the capital is still so soft, and the moonlight fills the whole world. Even in the dark night, there are still stars and moonlight in the sky. Although there is a lot of darkness in life, it is not without direction. At this time, Lin Xuan,
exactly.
Looking at the starry sky, Lin Xuan felt a little confused in his heart. Had he really been living his own way all this time?
It was Lin Feng's opinion that he should enter Hanlin Academy. Wouldn't his father know about Hanlin Academy? It was such a dilapidated place that it couldn't even be called a college. Why did his father let him go there?
Is it just to save a little bit of tuition? Although the principality is small, but the father of the Yanshan Principality, who has a high position and more than ten thousand people under one person, would spend such a small amount of money?
Since it was to save money, even if Hanlin College was really completely wiped out by history, why would he be sent here again at this time? The Longzhong Empire was indispensable for management. Even if his father and Mu Qinggang were inseparable from life and death,
So what if I pay it? Everyone has his or her own bottom line. His father would definitely not let Mu Qinggang pay for the money he spent to enter Longzhong College.
Conspiracy? He is his father after all, and blood is thicker than water. Is all this just a game set by some people, and am I just one of the pawns?
A self-deprecating smile appeared on Lin Xuan's face. The protagonist? Why do I feel like I am more like a sidekick now? dd
