"Yes, yes, there are only two teenagers sitting by the window, please come with me, hey, just now I remembered that there were two people sitting, why did this turn into three?"
The young waiter of the Qiongjiang Restaurant scratched his head suspiciously, but the table is a round table, and five people can sit there, so the waiter still invites the two girls to sit down.
Rouge girl took off the small bag on her chest, put it on her knees, and looked around. The first thing she saw was a fat man with a slightly twitching mouth and sweating profusely. Next to him was a thin man, all ages Not too old, and then a woman appeared in her field of vision, her skin was as white as a snow field in winter, and she looked older, so she turned to the woman and asked softly:
"Sister, it is said that the White Emperor Palace is the biggest house in Shenjing, but Shenjing is really too big. We just arrived today, so we are not familiar with it. Do you know where the White Emperor Palace is?"
The woman didn't answer immediately, but just looked at the girl in front of her. She felt that Rouge girl had a special temperament, a temperament that even attracted her as a saint. She had seen too many people in her life, but I can only feel it on the girl in front of me.
Girl Yanzhi is like a bitter tea among thousands of tea trees. At first glance, it looks very unattractive, but the more you look at it, the more different it becomes. .
That is the taste of Tao.
After contemplating for a while, the female saint of the Ice Field opened her red lips slightly and asked, "I know where the White Emperor Palace is, and I can take you to the White Emperor Palace, but you have to tell me, what will you do?"
Girl Rouge's small face was startled, and then she answered seriously: "I can make tea, and if making money counts, then I will also make some money."
"Oh? I like drinking tea. If you don't mind, make me a cup. As a reward, I will take you to the White Emperor's Palace."
Rouge girl nodded, took out the prepared tea leaves from the small cloth bag on her knees, and then asked the waiter for a pot of hot water. There were no complicated steps such as warming the cup, waking up the tea, etc., just simple Simply brewing in hot water is natural, calm, and almost Taoist. She has done this step countless times.
The female saint of the ice field picked up the teacup in front of her, took a sip, closed her eyes to feel it, and when she opened her eyes again, her eyes were full of horror.
She quickly put away the horror in her eyes, regained her composure, turned her head to look at Rouge girl, her plain face was full of solemnity, and said seriously:
"Now that I drink your tea, I am your master. My name is Xiao Yingri, and I come from Liuli City."
The hand of the fat man, which was originally flat on his leg, firmly grabbed the fat on his thigh. The thin man also had an incredible expression on his face, and the waiter who came all the way with Miss Rouge even stood up.
The location by the window of the wine restaurant seems to be isolated in another space, even though the outside is full of voices and toasts, the inside is not affected at all, there is no sound coming in, and some are only the eyes of two women chat with someone.
"But I don't want to be your apprentice."
Girl Rouge shook her head and seriously refused.
"That's why, basically everyone in the world wants to be my apprentice. I can teach you how to practice, pass on your supernatural powers, and you can also earn a lot of money, so much that you can't spend it all your life."
The Icefield Saintess took another sip of tea, but Rouge still shook her head.
"I came to Shenjing to ask for debts, to find someone, not to learn from a teacher."
"I can help you find someone and help you pay for your debt. No matter who the other party is, I can help you get a hundred times more." The voice of the female saint suddenly became sharper.
"But I don't want him to pay back a hundred times, I don't even want him to pay back the money. I came to Shenjing to ask for the debt because I missed him, and I came to Shenjing to look for him because I missed him."
The female saint of the ice field fell silent, and snow began to fall near the Qinglong Gate in Shenjing City, which seemed to be her heart was not at peace.
"After eating the noodle soup, you follow me, and I will take you to the White Emperor Palace as a reward for this cup of tea."
This evening, the Lord of Great Xia will host a banquet at the White Emperor Palace to welcome the Ice and Snow Maiden and the Snow People Tribe. At the gate of the mansion, there were two teams of carriages neatly lined up, the scene was spectacular, as if it had been agreed, two long queues lined up and entered the palace together.
And Zhao Yu was on his way to the Dao Palace at this time, because of the Dao Martial Arts Competition, the Dao Palace would be on holiday for half a month, so Zhao Yu was going to pick up the two little maids whom he hadn't seen for a while to go home.
As soon as the carriage approached Disciple Peak, he saw two pretty figures waiting at the foot of the mountain from a distance.
Miss Ruyue started waving her hands vigorously at her young master from a long distance away, Shui Lingling's big eyes were already full of mist, with tears streaming down her face, so pitiful, Bai Zhining beside her was dressed in white, slim and graceful.
After picking up the two, the carriage turned around and drove out.
In the carriage, Zhao Yu looked at Ruyue in front of him, and thought it was really cute, with a smile on his face, he saw little Ruyue sitting in the corner of the carriage with her arms around her knees, Zhao Yu asked her, but she didn't speak, it was this bean Big tears flowed out from the big eyes, and the whole little face was flushed from crying, and he wiped it with his hand, like a little tabby cat, Bai Zhining kept patting her back to comfort her.
This period of time made her very uncomfortable, she couldn't feel the vitality of heaven and earth for a long time, and drew the energy into her body. Instead, she watched Sister Bai who was cultivating together at a fast pace, and she was very anxious, but the more anxious she was, the less she could find her state. As a result, I haven't stepped into the first stage yet, not to mention how wronged I am in my heart. Seeing my son, I feel that I am too useless. I feel like I have no face to see Jiangdong's elders, and I can't help but burst into tears.
"Okay, little Ruyue, there's no need to hurry about cultivation. Your son and I have spent 16 years drawing energy into the body. You've only had a few days. Don't worry." Zhao Yu stroked Ruyue's head, calmly The sound sounded, giving people a feeling of peace of mind.
"Really?" Ruyue sniffed her nose, raised her head, looked at Zhao Yu with big watery eyes, and asked with a sob.
"Of course, son, when have I ever lied to you?"
Only then did Xiao Ruyue recover a little, and put away the pearls in her eyes.
"But Elder Sister Bai is very powerful. It took only one day to draw the breath into her body." The kind Ruyue has already started to claim credit for Bai Zhining.
"Yes, your elder sister Bai is really talented, but I believe Ruyue will also be very talented."
Xiao Ruyue smiled through tears, then Zhao Yu turned his head to look at Bai Zhining with a cold face, and said:
"You did a good job, but now you are still far behind me, so you have to keep working hard."
Chapter 0079
The largest house in Shenjing City is undoubtedly the White Emperor Palace. The White Emperor Palace can account for one-third of Shenjing's large size, but the reason why the people of Shenjing subconsciously exclude it is because it is not a house in the strict sense. It is a city within a city.
Just after dusk, the Jiaming Hall in the Baidi Palace, where the royal family held banquets, was brightly lit, the bells and drums were set, and the huge hall was filled with banquets, a total of [-] tables. Eat it together.
Empress Wu sat at the top table, and there were two empty tables next to it, which belonged to the emperor's grandson and the old queen. Zhao Yu did not participate, but the old queen showed her side, said a few auspicious words, and With the help of the maid, he went back to Lingbo Hall.
Sitting below Empress Wu were the Lord of Glazed City and Wei Guogong Xu Sheng, and the female saint of the ice field covered her appearance and hid herself in layers of mist.
Then there are three rows below, according to the ranks of civil servants, military generals and sects, they sit from top to bottom in order of rank, rank and cultivation level. The atmosphere in the whole hall is solemn and solemn.
Empress Wu and the female saint both left shortly after the banquet started, and the atmosphere in Mingde Hall became active. All the people sitting here were the most important dignitaries in Great Xia, and they hadn't seen each other for a long time.
The Zhao Clan, the lord of the Great Xia, held a banquet this time which was considered to be the largest in the past years. Even the juniors of the generals and sects were invited, but the banquet was set up in the side hall.
But at this moment, the atmosphere in the side hall was not good, instead it felt a bit tense.
The field was clearly divided into three factions, one was the Great Xia court led by the Seeds and the Fourteenth Clan, the other was the Xuemin tribe led by the girl who drove the female saint in Liuli City, and the other was the Hai Cuo Sect and other sects. The factions of the Sun Moon Sect and the two prides of the Sun Moon Sect are also impressive.
For the first time ever, those juniors in Liuye Lane and Zizhu Lane who were at odds with each other united with each other, and the opponent was the rebellious younger generation of Xuemin tribe sitting in the hall.
The headed woman from Liuli City didn't speak, but the young men from the Xuemin tribe behind them chattered endlessly when the banquet just started. Chest, very ironic.
The Extreme Northern Snowfield is located to the north of the Huwo Mountains, and the only shortcut to the Central Plains is Tianmenxia. Its relationship with Daxia is similar to that between a dependent country and a suzerain country.
The location of Xueyuan is too remote, the environment is extremely harsh, and there are not many resources, so His Majesty the Taizu only accepted his surrender, and named Jiang, one of the fourteen surnames of Ying, as the King of Bei'an to guard Tianmenxia.
However, the Xueyuan tribe is rebellious by nature, and there is always a posture of fighting if there is a disagreement, so Jiang's hands are more or less stained with the blood of the Xueyuan tribe. Now that everyone in the tribe sees Jiang's children sitting in front of them, naturally Hold your breath, one after another opened their mouths to provoke.
The Pangri Jiang clan, who was the number one slaughterer in the Fourth Army, was naturally not a generation who would not retaliate when they were scolded, and who would not retaliate when they were beaten, they beat the table and smashed glasses, glaring, especially Jiang Yue, the fourth son of King Bei'an, even released his own Dao Soul, with blood energy rising, reflected the inside of the side hall in red.
Bingzong believes in domineering, and has always advocated for forces outside the Central Plains that they are not of our race, so their hearts must be different, they should be killed, and they belong to the Great Xia Eagle Faction.
Fortunately, both sides are not brainless people. They know that this place is the White Emperor Palace. If they really perform martial arts in this side hall, they will definitely be hanged up and beaten by their own elders after returning home. Donkey, they all took a deep breath. After all, the Dao Martial Arts Competition is just around the corner, and the Xuemin Tribe will also participate.
No matter how lively and noisy the Jiaming Hall is, the Lingbo Hall near the Imperial Garden of the White Emperor Palace will always be quiet and peaceful. The slightest sound of his voice is not allowed to enter.
But today in the Lingbo Hall, the old queen laughed one after another. The old queen has not laughed so presumptuously for more than ten years.
The Lingbo Hall was fragrant, and on the dining table carved from red sandalwood, there were a few exquisite side dishes. The old lady was always simple and refused to be extravagant, so there were not many dishes, and most of them were vegetarian dishes.
Besides the old lady, there were two small figures sitting beside the table.
Rouge still holds the small cloth bag that she will never leave her hand, because it contains her hard-earned money, she eats in small bites, and answers the old queen's questions seriously while eating, but she is sitting by the side. The waiter in the shop was a little cautious, but also a little worried and uneasy.
The old queen mother who just came back from the Jiaming Palace had a rosy complexion, and even the rice in the bowl was much more than usual. Looking at the girl Yanzhi in front of her, her eyes were full of smiles, and she asked, "It's delicious. Is it?"
The little girl nodded, and replied nonchalantly: "It's delicious, it's the best dish I've ever eaten."
Just about to say something to the old lady in front of me, but I didn't know what to say, so there was a momentary pause.
The old queen saw the little girl's hesitation, reached out to touch Rouge's head, and said, "You can call me grandma like Yu'er, little girl, grandma doesn't know your name yet?"
"My name is Yanzhi, Lu Yanzhi, grandma, you are so pretty."
Girl Rouge nodded, showing a sweet smile, her big eyes bent into two curved moons.
The old queen who was praised couldn't help laughing again, and even the middle-aged maid who was serving at the side showed a smile from the bottom of her heart.
The middle-aged court lady has served the old lady for more than ten years, and she understands how much pain and sadness the old lady has.
She was the most beautiful woman in the Central Plains in the vast land of Shenzhou in the past, and she was admired by millions of people. Just a full house of poor old people.
After dinner, the old lady leaned on the recliner by the fire, covered with thick silk cotton, her face was a bit tired, but her eyes were still bright, she beckoned Rouge to sit beside her, Looking at the little girl's red face, she said softly:
"It is said that you are very good at making tea, do you mind serving a cup for this old woman like me?"
Half an hour after the little girl left the wine hall with the Icefield Maiden, the old lady had already seen the information presented by Si Tianjian.
Girl Rouge immediately took out the tea from the small cloth bag, brewed a cup carefully, and handed it to the old lady with both hands respectfully.
The old lady took it, took a sip, and closed her eyes. The tea was slightly bitter. After the bitterness, it was fresh and cool, and finally turned into sweetness. It is the breath of the avenue.
The old queen opened her eyes, and the hand holding the teacup trembled imperceptibly for a moment.
Then the smile returned to her eyes, she nodded, she smiled and asked Rouge girl: "You come to the White Emperor Palace to ask for debts, I will help you make the decision, how much does my useless grandson owe you?"
"I owed me three renminbi. If you include the broken tables and chairs, then add two taels. That's a lot."
After hearing this, Rouge girl lowered her head in embarrassment, opened her small mouth, and spoke in an inaudible voice.
"Hahahaha, it's a lot. My grandson probably won't be able to pay it back. My old lady has a suggestion, let him marry you, and use this lifetime to pay it back. What do you think?"
Chapter 0080 Vigorous
On the first day of September, it was sunny and sunny.
Since last night, countless boys and girls in Shenjing have stayed up all night, lying on the bed with their eyes open, their eyes revealing infinite longing, looking forward to becoming a blockbuster, winning the first prize in one fell swoop, becoming a prince and minister, and becoming famous all over the world!
Wake up and take control of the world, drunk and lying on the knees of beautiful women!
Today, Gyeonggi Prefecture will cooperate with Sitianjian and the Ministry of Rites to jointly undertake the Daowu Grand Competition, so before dawn, Shao Yinshan Wenbai of Gyeonggi Prefecture has already changed his clothes and washed his clothes. His wife is still asleep next to him, so he went out carefully. There was a carriage from Gyeonggi Province waiting at the door.
Shan Wenbai has been an official for 20 years, and he is extremely careful in his work. He lives in a very simple place. It is a small courtyard not far from Gyeonggi Prefecture. He is not extravagant in his daily life. He has only one wife who has been with him for more than 20 years. His son lives in Xijiang Joining the army, daily life is two points and one line.
After Shan Wenbai met with the Minister of Rites at the entrance of the Ministry of Rites, both of them looked at each other with wry smiles. If you want to say which officials in Shenjing City are the busiest recently, these two are none other than the two in front of you.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince’s Grand Ceremony is ahead, and the Minister of Rites is like an ant on a hot pot, busy running around. The royal family of Daxia is sparsely populated. The last Prince Ceremony dates back to nearly 40 years ago. For some He is not clear about the details of the ceremony, and he still needs to visit some experienced old scholars, so he must not be sloppy at all.
The Dao Wu Dao Competition is also one of the major events that the whole country of Daxia focuses on. Countless people are looking forward to it. Even the Sun Empire, which is far away in the vast land of Shenzhou and the Western Regions, will pay close attention to it. After all, it represents the future of Daxia. The young people above Dabi will soon appear on the battlefield in the western border, and at that time it will be a real life and death, and they will never stop dying.
Fortunately, the Grand Competition is held every three years. Shan Wenbai and Minister of Rites You Tingjian are also very familiar with it. After a series of procedures, today's Daowu Grand Competition will finally kick off. All Daxia people under the age of 25 can participate Sign up for the scramble.
This year's competition is particularly eye-catching, and the suspense is also the greatest, because Guan Zhengqing is 26 years old this year!
All the big summer prides who have been suppressed to death finally ushered in the chance to stand up, and for many people, this is also the last chance.
Since ancient times, Wen Wu is the first, Wu Wu is the second, the younger generation after Guan Zhengqing, who will control the ups and downs?
The southern suburbs of Shenjing, the royal hunting ground!
When Shan Wenbai arrived, the hunting ground was already full of people, and there were still countless young girls and boys gathered from all over Shenjing, and they were all of extraordinary cultivation. On the sky, it turned into a vast cloud of smoke over Shenjing, which was unstoppable.
These are the mainstays of the Great Xia in the future. The number of people participating in the Taoist Competition increases each time, and the Daoism written by the master is the most important contribution.
The various agencies of the Daxia government are very efficient, and the division of labor is very clear. The Gyeonggi government arranges the flow of people and maintains the order on the scene.
The imperial court, a state machine, is always vigilant because of foreign enemies. Moreover, the internal affairs are under the governance of Empress Wu.
There is a rather large watchtower in the royal hunting ground, and there is a rest area specially set up for the royal family on the platform, which is now used as an office.
Wearing a thick coat, Shan Wenbai walked into the room stoopingly, breathing heat into his hands constantly. The Minister of Rites beside him was not much better, with a haggard face. The two found a place to sit. Next, the Minister of Rites took the lead in saying:
"Lao Shan, do you feel that the weather in Shenjing is extraordinarily cold this year? I remember the Dao Wu Dao Competition three years ago, and I was sitting here with you, and I didn't feel it was as biting as it is now."
Shan Wenbai took a sip of tea, felt a little warmth in his body, and replied: "Old Yin, it's not that the weather is cold, it's that we are getting old. After working for a few more years, we can retire and return home. When the time comes, that boy from my family will marry your girl, and we can be considered in-laws."
"Yeah, I'm getting old, and my body and bones are much worse than before. After I'm busy with His Highness's ceremony, I'm really going to report my old age and return to my hometown. And why do you, old boy, keep staring at my house?" Girl, wait until your kid comes back alive from Xijiang, but then again, if your kid doesn't join the army, he probably will also participate in the following Daowu Dao competition."
You Tingjian, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, showed a smile at first, and then became a little embarrassed. He also watched the boy from Shan Wenbai's family grow up. To be honest, he was very satisfied and hoped that the boy could be his son-in-law. There is no lack of matchmaking, but thinking about the hot temper of his daughter, I have some headaches. I haven't seen my daughter in the past few days, but You Ting firmly knows that she must be standing below among the huge crowd waiting for Dabi.
"I haven't heard from my kid for a long time. His last letter was a month ago. It is said that the battle on the front line is very tight. I don't know what's going on now."
A look of worry flashed in Shan Wenbai's eyes. The battlefield is a battlefield, and the big competition is a big competition.
"Not to mention this, this year's Shenji Pavilion is also sold out, and the seed list for this year's Dao Martial Arts Competition has not been released until today, unlike the previous ones that released the predicted ranking early, I am afraid it is because of the large variables this year."
Shan Wenbai took a sip of tea, looking forward to this year's Dao Wu Dao Competition.
"Guan Zhengqing monopolizes the top three rankings, overshadowing a generation. Until today, the young people of Daxia can take a breather." A mellow voice came from the room, and an old figure appeared out of thin air. Stand up and salute him.
"I met Mr. Li, the supervisor of the Sitian Supervisor."
Li Chunfeng, the Sitian supervisor with a white beard and a Taoist robe, nodded his head, his whole body restrained like an ordinary old man. After looking around for a week, he waved his hand, and the three of them instantly appeared on the general platform of the royal hunting ground. The entire hunting ground square was full of teenagers and girls, and when they saw the three of them appearing directly under the attention of everyone, there was a burst of incomparably enthusiastic voices.
The sound shook the sky, resounding through the sky!
Li Chunfeng pressed his hands down, and the ground gradually became quiet, and his old voice began to echo in the sky above the royal hunting ground.
"Ten years of cold window, no one asks, once you become famous, the world will know it! You guys, are you ready?"
"roar~"
The royal hunting ground was completely set on fire, and the roar of the young man could be heard echoing over the hunting ground in the whole city of Shenjing.
