The next day, at dawn.
Just as the city gate of the Great Zhou imperial city opened, a man in sloppy clothes walked in.
This person was Long Pusa.
Actually, he had been waiting outside the Great Zhou imperial city for two days. The reason why he didn’t enter the city for a long time was just in case.
He felt that today was the right time and it was time to enter the city..bμν.
「Damn it, I met a beggar early in the morning. What bad luck.」 The gatekeeper soldier couldn’t help but curse when he saw Long Pusa.
Long Pusa coldly glanced at the gatekeeper soldiers, wishing he could gouge out the soldiers’ eyeballs.
I’m the adopted son of the Great Emperor, and you actually scolded me. Do you want to die?
However, Long Pusa didn’t act rashly. He came to this city to handle a major matter.
Who knew that as soon as he entered the city, he saw the poems pasted on the city wall.
The three words ‘Ye Changsheng’ were like blood, piercing the eyes and extremely dazzling.
He walked over to take a look.
At this time, the gatekeeper soldiers came over to drive him away: “What are you looking at!」
”That’s the poem written by our Great Zhou’s son-in-law. Can you understand it?」
”Hurry up and get out!」
When Long Pusa heard this, his whole person was stunned.
What, Ye Changsheng has become the son-in-law of the Great Zhou?
Doesn’t that mean that this bastard is now in the Great Zhou Imperial City?
Not good, this place is too dangerous and can’t stay any longer.
When Long Pusa thought of this, he turned around and ran towards the outside of the city. While running, he couldn’t help but look back.
”Huh, why do those poems written by Ye Changsheng look so familiar?」
When the gatekeeper soldiers saw Long Pusa running away in a hurry, they laughed and said: “This bastard is quite obedient.」
This was just an episode.
Immortal Residence.
Ye Qiu got up early. Without the ‘harassment’ of Nangong Xiaoxiao, he only felt refreshed and full of strength all over his body.
After having breakfast.
Ye Qiu asked Niu Dali to return to Rongbao Pavilion, while he took Long Mei Zhenren to the palace to participate in the martial arts competition.
Similarly, Uncle Zhu had been waiting at the palace gate for him early in the morning.
「Uncle Zhu, good morning!」 Ye Qiu waved and greeted.
Uncle Zhu smiled and said, 「Young Master Ye, after today’s martial arts competition, the son-in-law of the Great Zhou will be decided. I’m here to congratulate you in advance. I wish you every success and all your wishes come true.」
「Thank you for your kind words, Uncle Zhu.」 Ye Qiu asked, 「By the way, can we ask for help when competing today?」
「Of course.」 Uncle Zhu said, 「Does Young Master Ye have any ideas?」
Ye Qiu said, 「I’m going to let the old guy play and give him a chance to show his power.」
Wonderful!
In this way, Long Mei Zhenren can share part of the pressure for Ye Qiu.
「This method is very good.」 Uncle Zhu said with a smile, 「Daozhang, I will cheer you on later. I hope you can trample all those geniuses under your feet.」
「Naturally.」 Long Mei Zhenren said, 「Damn it, those guys are all pretentious. They laughed at me when I wrote poems yesterday. Today I must teach them a good lesson.」
Uncle Zhu reminded, 「However, Daozhang should also be careful. Those people have a high level of cultivation. Many of them are at the peak of Tong Shen.」
Long Mei Zhenren didn’t take it seriously and said, 「In our eyes, they are all trash.」
「Hurry up and go in!」
「I can’t wait to beat them up.」
Uncle Zhu led Ye Qiu and True Man Changmei into the imperial palace. After going around, they finally came to a square.
This square is very large and can accommodate tens of thousands of people. In the very center of the square, there is a huge arena.
When Ye Qiu and the others arrived, there were already thousands of people in the square. Besides those geniuses participating in the competition for the consort, there were also civil and military officials of the Great Zhou and the soldiers of the Great Zhou.
Ye Qiu took a glance. The people participating in the competition for the consort were all sitting around the ring.
Behind them
were countless soldiers of the Great Zhou.
Those soldiers wore armor and held long spears. Standing there, they were like statues, motionless.
The sunlight shone on the soldiers’ armor, shining with a dazzling light. Rows of long spears stood upright, and the spear tips pointed to the sky, as if they were the guardians of this land.
Ye Qiu saw the emperor of the Great Zhou and Ning An at a glance.
Not far from the arena, there was a grandstand, which was full of civil and military officials of the Great Zhou.
As for the emperor of the Great Zhou and Ning An, they were sitting side by side on a dragon chair in the front of the grandstand.
Ye Qiu looked at Ning An.
At this time, Ning An was sitting upright, with no smile on her face, looking very majestic.
Ye Qiu said, “Old thing, have you noticed that Ning An sitting there looks very much like a female emperor?」
The Long-browed True Man took a look and nodded, saying, “Well, she does look a bit like one. Why don’t you give her a hand?」
”What kind of help?” Ye Qiu asked..bμν.
”Rebellion!” The Long-browed True Man said, “You help Ning’an rebel and assist her in ascending the throne of the Great Zhou.」
”Just think about it. Having an empress beneath you every day, doesn’t it give you a great sense of accomplishment?」
Ye Qiu nodded slightly: “That seems to make some sense.」
Uncle Zhu, who heard their conversation beside them, felt his heart skip a beat and quickly reminded, “Young Master Ye, Master, this is the imperial palace. Be careful with your words!”
However, Uncle Zhu couldn’t help but take a look at Ning’an and thought, “It would be great if the young lady could really become the empress.」
”Since the founding of the Great Zhou, there has never been a female emperor.」
”If the young lady could really become the master of the Great Zhou, it would be a precedent.」
Ye Qiu noticed that on both sides of the dragon chair in the stands, there were also some young men wearing bright yellow dragon robes.
”Are those people the princes of the Great Zhou?” Ye Qiu asked.
Uncle Zhu nodded: “Yes.」
”Why didn’t we see them during the literary battle yesterday?” Ye Qiu asked again.
Uncle Zhu lowered his voice and said, “Young Master Ye doesn’t know. The princes are not good at poetry and literature. The emperor is afraid of losing face, so he didn’t let them come out yesterday.」
It can be like this?
Ye Qiu smiled and his gaze fell on the position closest to the dragon chair.
There was a man sitting in that position. He looked to be in his early thirties, wearing a bright yellow four-clawed dragon robe, with his hair tied up in a golden crown. His appearance was very handsome, and he sat there with his back straight, looking extraordinary.
「Uncle Zhu, who is that person?」 Ye Qiu asked.
Uncle Zhu followed Ye Qiu’s gaze and replied, 「That’s the eldest prince.」
「The eldest prince’s name is Wu Wanzhou.」
「He is very outstanding. If there are no accidents, the future master of the Great Zhou will be among him and the second prince, Wu Qianfan.」
Oh, a competitor of Wu Qianfan?
Ye Qiu asked, 「What kind of person is this Wu Wanzhou?」
Uncle Zhu said, 「He has ability and means, but he is not good at socializing and is not very enthusiastic about anyone.」
「Oh.」 Ye Qiu said lightly.
Subsequently, he led the Longmei True Man and came to the stands, preparing to say hello to the Great Zhou Emperor and Ning’an.
Who knew that before he could speak, Wu Wanzhou stood up and said with a smile on his face, 「You are Ye Changsheng, right? You are really a talented person, and you and Ning’an are a match made in heaven. Brother-in-law, I am optimistic about you.」
Ye Qiu turned his head and looked at Uncle Zhu. You call this not being good at socializing?
