Blood Lord's Sweetheart

Chapter 8: Election

The Hall of Jinghe, the emperor's bedroom in the Longteng Kingdom's palace.

At this time, the bedroom was eerily quiet, there were only three people in the huge bedroom.

One is Sun Ping, the emperor's close eunuch and chief eunuch.

As for the other two, one is the newly enthroned Hongsheng Emperor Long Qingchen, and the other is our Regent.

Are you discussing something important so closely and carefully?

A low voice broke the silence of the room.

"Nothing."

Xuewuqing felt that there must be something wrong with the ear.

She didn't say anything, just looked at him.

Long Qingchen looked a little unnatural.That pair of fox eyes, which were always full of fierceness, seemed a little erratic at this moment.

"Hey, that's how it is. Isn't the draft going to happen soon? The ministers all said that the Prince Regent has been alone all this time. Why don't you take advantage of this spring general election to choose some good men and women for the Palace of the Prince Regent? Add some newcomers to serve around. I think it’s true that Eldest Brother’s place is a little deserted, and it’s not bad to add some newcomers as the courtiers said, while Eldest Brother is here, let’s ask how it is.”

In private, he called Xue Wuqing his eldest brother instead of the regent, and he also called himself I instead of Zhen. This title is close but respectful, and it expresses closeness to Xue Wuqing and the inherent respect is not low at the same time.

Xuewuqing didn't agree or object to his title, as if he had acquiesced.People who know interesting directors will always be liked.And Long Qingchen is exactly like this, acting and attitude, acting like a younger brother is not too much.

Satisfied with this witty attitude, he acquiesced in showing closeness.If he has two attitudes before and after, hehe.

On this mortal continent, it is allowed to marry male wives and male concubines, and many take male concubines, but few take male wives.

Xue Wuqing looked at Long Qingchen and thought it was a little funny, this is really ignorant and fearless, who in this world can stand by his side, and who dares to stand by his side, don't you want to live?This emperor is really good enough, not only calling him big brother, but also thinking about picking someone for him.

Just when I was about to refuse, that funny little thing flashed in my mind for some reason, and when I thought about it, the words I was about to say to refuse changed.

"Well, you can look at the arrangement, but I don't like those delicate things very much."

At the beginning, Long Qingchen was a little apprehensive. He thought he was going to be rejected, but he didn't expect that the Lord Regent actually agreed.

Because this is the first draft of Xindi's ascension to the throne.The scale is needless to think about.All boys and girls who meet the age in various places will go through selection, pick out the best ones, and send them to the palace.After being taught by the stewards in the palace, they will be sent to the emperor in the end, and the emperor will personally choose them.

Long Qingchen believed that as long as Xue Wuqing agreed, he would pick someone he liked no matter what.

"Big brother will be invited to attend that day. The people who appear that day are considered to be the best in the world. If there is a big brother who likes me, I will send it directly to your house. It’s not too late to accept it after a while.”

"Oh, is it so."

Xue Wuqing asked something meaningful.

Long Qingchen smiled lightly.

"As long as the selected ones are selected, they will be sent to the prince regent's mansion of eldest brother."

The royal demeanor is fully displayed.

Xuewuqing didn't answer, but just raised his hand to indicate his consent, and the figure disappeared and left.

The remaining two people in the room were not curious about the disappearing figure.After all, the more you experience it, the more you get used to it.

"You should pay more attention to the matter of Sun Ping's draft this time. Don't let some ignorant things do anything. After all, this matter is about the eldest brother, so you should pay more attention."

"Yes, please rest assured, Your Majesty. I will never let those things that shouldn't come in be put in."

He wanted that seat, but if he sat in that seat and there was no one to confide his sincerity, that would be too sad.Although he deserves to be alone, but someone can be sincere, who would like to be alone.

Long Qingchen is not stupid, on the contrary, he is very smart. Xue Wuqing's indifference to fame and fortune, and his wanton personality make him feel envious and close.At the beginning, he let go of his heart, but in the end, he really regarded him as a big brother.For the ruthless acquiescence, he is quite happy.Such a big brother with both appearance, wisdom and strength has indeed taken a considerable advantage.

But recently, I always feel a little hairy in my heart.

"Be careful and don't be careless. Why do you feel that something is about to happen? Don't make any trouble, alas!"

Sigh lightly.

I have to say, how can the emperor feel so accurate...

In Jinyang, the capital of the Dragon Empire, beneath the peaceful and prosperous surface is turbulent turmoil.

Dingbei General Mansion.

"My husband, what's the matter? Why are you frowning all the time, but what worries you?"

"Hey! In this spring draft, our General's Mansion is going to produce a son."

"What? Can anyone choose?"

Meng Yan had a bad premonition in her heart, she didn't dare to think about it any longer.

Dingbei General Han Zhenqi frowned and looked at his wife Meng Yan, although he didn't speak but the meaning was already understood.

When Meng Yan saw it, her face paled.

"No, it won't be my Yu'er, sir, tell me, it's not Yu'er, right?"

She was still holding on to a glimmer of hope, how could she dare to confirm unless Han Zhenqi said it himself.

"Oh, Yan'er, we still have Zhe'er."

Han Zhenqi also had a look of unbearable.

After all, it was his first child, and he was so outstanding, he raised him as his successor.

"No, no, that's my son, my heart."

Meng Yan was so distraught that she almost fainted.

Han Zhenqi held Meng Yan in his arms, soothing her softly.

"How could this happen? There are so many people, why is it my Yu'er, my child is so outstanding, how could it be so... my Yu'er."

Before he finished speaking, he was already crying in Han Zhenqi's arms.

This time Han Zhenqi is also puzzled, why the emperor is so concerned about Xiunan this time.

"Ma'am, don't cry. You can't defy the Holy Order. Let your husband think of a way. If you break your body from crying, I will feel sorry for you."

"How can I not cry when something like this happens. Yu'er is my heart, he is so outstanding, he works hard, just to show off his talent in the future, if he is selected into the palace, how can he live? .”

Meng Yan cried heart-rendingly, she had already given up on her manners.

"What did you say? It is a great honor to be selected. If outsiders listen to this, it will be disrespectful to the Holy Majesty."

At this moment, there was a sudden sound outside the door.

It was Han Yu who came to see his father knowing that his father was back, but unexpectedly, he heard such sad news.

It was like a bolt from the blue, shattering all his goodness.

"Father, what mother said just now... yes, what do you mean? Yu'er got it wrong, right? Right?"

If it is true, wouldn't his hard work these years become a joke.

Han Yu was standing outside the door at this time, his face was pale, his voice was trembling, and his whole body was fragile.

He heard what his mother Meng Yan said, and he couldn't believe it. Isn't it true?

At this moment, he would completely collapse with just one word.

Seeing Han Yu at this time, Meng Yan felt a pain in her heart.

She can't panic, she has to find a way, she is her son's hope, and she is also his son's hope.

Meng Yan kept admonishing herself in her heart.

Quickly stepping forward to support her Yu'er, the tears couldn't stop falling down.

"Yu'er, don't scare mother, don't scare mother, the matter has not been settled yet, let your father think of a way? He will definitely not enter the palace, definitely not."

"Is it? Wouldn't it be?"

Han Yu looked at his father with a pale face, his eyes full of hope.Father is General Dingbei, as long as he thinks, there will be a way, right?

Han Zhenqi looked at Aizi, and felt embarrassed, how could the emperor order it to be changed.

"Husband, you should think of a way, think of a way. Yu'er is so outstanding, versatile in both civil and military affairs, he has always been your pride, and he will definitely do a lot in the future. You have not always spoiled him, you must be reluctant, yes No, right?"

At this time, Meng Yan had already lost her proper composure.

Han Zhenqi looked at his wife's beloved son with bitterness, how could he be willing to part with such an outstanding son.

Looking at Han Zhenqi at this moment, Meng Yan was secretly annoyed, but she dared not show it on her face.

After all, it depends on him to help in this matter, otherwise the son will definitely fall into the abyss.

Meng Yan was certain in her heart, her eyes turned.

"It's not because Yu'er is necessary for a husband to enter the palace."

Han Zhenqi's face changed when he heard the sound.

"No, don't say that again."

When Meng Yan heard this, she quit.

"It's okay for him to be a married couple. Could it be that you sacrificed our son for the sake of your useless bastard?"

"What are you talking about here? Can't you see how important I am to them? After so many years, don't you know what happened to that child? "

"But at this time, I just want Yu'er to be well."

Meng Yan's face was full of sadness.

However, Han Yu's face was full of disbelief when he heard his father's words.How could my father send him out for the sake of that useless younger brother?

"Father, you really don't want a child anymore? Why? Is it false that a father loves a child?"

"Don't listen to your mother's nonsense, she is talking nonsense in a hurry, don't you know how much my father treats you?"

Han Yu saw that his father was indeed not lying, and knew that there might be something he didn't know.

And it depends on his father.

As long as he misses it, Han Yu already cares about it.

"The child knows the father's concern for the child. Please forgive me for the disturbed words just now."

Han Zhenqi looked at the elder son who was in front of him with outstanding posture and personable manner, and made up his mind.

He placed great expectations on this eldest son. The Dingbei General's Mansion needs someone to inherit, and he is also the most suitable in his heart.

As for the second son, even if he enters the palace, there is nothing he can do.

As long as things can be done, Zuo Zuo is just an evil obstacle, but he can prevent this disaster for the eldest son, and the matter has dragged on for so many years, it is time.

"Your mother is right. Your younger brother is more suitable than you in terms of status and age. Let him go in this draft."

Meng Yan was overjoyed when she heard that, although she didn't know why her husband changed his mind, it was better if it wasn't her Yu'er.

"Thank you Husband, you are so kind to our mother and son, Mengyan has lived up to this life.

At this time, Meng Yan was raining pear blossoms, her eyes were charming and her face was shy, and she felt cold and her heart itch.

"You mother and son are my treasures, how can I bear to be wronged by you."

Seeing the situation of the two people in the room, Han Yu hastily withdrew, and he was naturally relieved when the matter was settled.

Although he felt a little sorry for his younger brother, he was selfish, and he ignored the guilt that arose.

With the advent of the draft turmoil, the dignitaries in the capital also began to get busy.

Some want their children to escape this draft.And some are doing everything possible to send their children to the palace for greater benefit.

Of course, the latter is more than the former.

The saddest of these people are the men, but who cares.

In this election, all unmarried men aged 17 to 16, and women who are waiting to be married aged [-] to [-] are within the scope.

Those who want to be prosperous will naturally not worry about other things, they just want to send people to the emperor, hoping to be selected.As for the boy's suffering, how could he care about it for the sake of glory?

As for those who don't want their children to enter the palace, who can resist the emperor's decree.Even if you don't give up, you can only swallow your tears.

It can be said that several families are happy and some are sad.

What is the abandoned Second Young Master doing right now...
