Don’t Show the Son

   Chapter 177 The first meeting of the two girls

  Lin Xiu is a little confident in himself, but self-confidence is not arrogance.

   Give him a year, he can narrow the gap with Zhao Lingjun, but he will definitely not catch up. After all, she is so talented, and she has practiced more than ten years earlier than him.

   But after another three years, when the next Tianjiao list is updated, he will not be afraid of Zhao Lingjun.

   I'll bet with Lingyin next time.

The two of them were walking on the street, and a group of people came towards them. Although those people had faces and clothes that were very similar to those of Daxia people, they spoke in a murmur. When they passed by Lin Xiu and Lingyin, there were more Glancing at them.

   As a language genius, Lin Xiu understood and praised them for their good looks.

   Zhao Lingyin looked back and said, "Strange, why did these people come so early?"

  Lin Xiu asked, "Who are they?"

Zhao Lingyin said: "It sounds like the language of Wuji Kingdom and Fusang Kingdom. I don't know which one it is. Not everyone can participate in the Great Competition of the Nations, but we must first participate in the small competition and obtain the qualifications to participate in the competition. But now is not the time for Xiaobi..."

  Lin Xiu understood, only by getting enough places in the lower-level competition, can he be eligible to participate in the competition.

   This rule is also reasonable. It can’t be that everyone can participate in the competition, and it will be completely messed up. . .

   Among the countries in the mainland, only the five dynasties can organize small competitions. Those small countries around them, half a year before the big competition, have to go to the five dynasties to obtain the qualifications to participate in the big competition.

   The Great Competition of the Nations is held every three years and is held in turn by the five dynasties. The last competition was held in Daxia. According to convention, next year's competition will be held in the Daluo Dynasty.

There are many small countries around Daxia. The bordering ones are the Western Regions, Nanyue, Nanzhao, Beimang, Baluo, etc. Fusang and Wuji are two island countries on the sea. Among them, there are the Western Regions, Nanyue, and Nanzhao. Obedient, there are also Wuji. Fusang is obedient on the surface, but in reality, he has ghosts and makes small moves from time to time.

   To some extent, the countries around the five dynasties are their vassals, and any of the five dynasties also has the strength to unify the surrounding countries.

It's nothing more than that for thousands of years, countries have fought back and forth for interests and resources, and found that fighting like this is not the way to go, and decided to encounter problems in the future, everyone sat down and discussed it, and no longer launched wars easily, which formed today's mainland. pattern.

   In other words, the original war existed in the form of a big ratio.

The results of the    Big Competition will affect the distribution of resources in the mainland in the next few years, so even the five dynasties will pay special attention to the Big Competition.

   Zhao Lingyin turned her head and said to Lin Xiu: "So, don't think about next year's competition. The most important thing at the moment is to stand out in the competition in a few months and get the qualification to participate in the competition."

  Lin Xiu asked Lingyin, "Will you also participate in this competition?"

   Zhao Lingyin said: "Although you will definitely not be able to enter the Tianjiao list, you can also gain insights and accumulate experience."

Lingyin's talent is not necessarily inferior to geniuses from other countries, but she is too young, she is only eighteen years old now, she can participate in three competitions, and most of the people on the Tianjiao list are only on the list once. Chance.

   The second time, they will not be able to participate because they are over the age limit.

  Like Zhao Lingjun, who participated in the competition for the first time at the age of seventeen, and won the top of the Tianjiao list, there have been very few existences since ancient times.

  Lin Xiu has to seize the time to cultivate and strive to advance to the ground level before the big competition. In this way, he will be in the top ten of the Tianjiao list, and only nine out of ten.

When    and Lingyin returned home, Qin Wan had already prepared the meal, and before Lin Xiu had eaten a few bites, she saw Zhu Jin walk in from outside.

  Lin Xiu said in surprise: "How did you know I was here?"

   Zhu Jin smiled and said, "There's nothing I don't know. Your Majesty asked you to come into the palace. You eat quickly, and after you finish eating, go back to the palace with me."

   Actually having time to let him eat, it doesn't seem to be an important matter, but the Emperor Dog is also true, if there is something that can't be finished just now, he has to be allowed to enter the palace again.

   After quickly finishing a bowl of rice, Lin Xiu followed Zhu Jin into the palace to a certain palace in the middle palace.

  This seems to be the place where the Dog Emperor is tired from dealing with political affairs and rests. At this moment, in addition to the Dog Emperor, there are also pretty widows in the palace.

  Pretty Widow looks prettier than before.

   Her skin is well maintained. She is in her early thirties, but her skin is as delicate as that of a twenty-year-old woman, her eyes are watery, and her face has a hint of flushing.

  Lin Xiu is from the past, of course he knows what this flushing is all about.

   He complained in his heart that he was working hard in the Xue family just now, but the Emperor Dog was enjoying it in the palace. It was really unfair.

   Emperor Xia looked at Lin Xiu and said, "I want to expand and expand the harem. You know what kind of woman I like, so I plan to appoint you as a draft ambassador. Do you have any opinions?"

  Emperor Dog's harem already has more than 20 concubines, and it has to be expanded, which is really enviable.

   She is only a wife, and she is a couple on the surface. If she wants to marry a woman who truly loves each other, she will encounter many obstacles. Thinking of this, Lin Xiu feels a little unbalanced.

   However, he still nodded and said, "I have no opinion."

If the emperor wants to choose a concubine, the process is much more complicated than his concubine, and it is not that he can marry whoever he wants. Often, the Ministry of Rites initially draws up a list of beautiful girls, and then the court conducts a preliminary selection. The selected person is sent to the palace, and the queen or the concubine chooses the final candidate. He has no power to decide the whole process.

   Therefore, it is best to choose the type he likes during the primary election, and the draft ambassador is the girl in charge of the primary draft.

   Over 30 years old, with **** and hips, and mature appearance, he is the type that the dog emperor likes.

Emperor Xia looked at the pretty widow, and then said to Lin Xiu: "You take the empress out of the palace in a while, I have already arranged things outside the palace, you just need to choose her as a finalist in the primary election, and the next thing, You don't have to worry about it."

   Lin Xiu said: "I understand."

He felt like a pimp, and the emperor's draft had to be operated behind the scenes. It was rumored that the dog emperor would have no face to be the emperor, so this matter must not only be done, but the fewer people who know about it, the better. In this way, The position of the draft ambassador really belongs to him.

  Lin Xiu suddenly thought that this time it was Emperor Gou who asked him, and he could strike while the iron was hot and ask him to do a little favor.

  The obstacle to him marrying Caiyi is not Zhao Lingjun, but his parents.

   They won't listen to Lin Xiu, but they will listen to the Dog Emperor.

   If you ask the Emperor Dog to marry him, wouldn’t the matter be resolved satisfactorily?

  Lin Xiu took the opportunity to say, "I also have a small matter that I would like to ask Your Majesty."

   Huang Xia said without hesitation: "I don't have any money, nor do I have a house."

  Lin Xiu said quickly: "Your Majesty misunderstood, this time I don't want money or a house, I just want your Majesty's imperial edict, an imperial edict to grant marriage."

   Huang Xia was stunned for a moment and asked, "Giving the marriage, who else are you going to marry, the one from the Xue family is impossible."

   Lin Xiu explained: "It's not Ning'er, it's Caiyi..."

   Huang Xia waved his hand and said, "That's not going to work, I just gave you and Zhao Lingjun a marriage a few months ago, and then I gave you a marriage. Whether I am an emperor or a matchmaker, there is no need to mention this..."

   When she led the pretty widow out of the palace, Lin Xiu complained in her heart that the dog emperor was not particular at all.

   I begged him to ask him to write a few words, but he refused without even thinking about it.

   He had better pray and don't ask himself for something next time.

After    left the palace, Lin Xiu led the pretty widow back to her residence.

   Along the way, the people could not help but talk about them when they saw them.

   "This girl is so beautiful, no wonder the third young master of the Zhang family likes it."

   "Those adults came out very early, why did she just leave the palace now?"

   "It should have been left by His Majesty to understand the case."

   "His Majesty is really a benevolent king. He manages all kinds of situations every day, and pays so much attention to the affairs of ordinary people..."

  …

  Lin Xiu sent the pretty widow home, and found that there were many suspicious figures around her house. He even saw the old beggar in the corner and the merchant on the street. It seemed that she didn't need to worry about her safety any more.

   It was getting late, and Lin Xiu also returned to the house.

   The next morning, Zhu Jin came here and brought Lin Xiu to the Ministry of Rites. He had already been named a draft ambassador. The Ministry of Rites wanted to cooperate with him to complete the audition and preliminary screening of the show girls as soon as possible.

   Lin Xiu had something to do this morning, and Zhao Lingyin didn't go to the Yishu Institute. After breakfast, she came to find Zhao Lingjun.

   She had heard about what happened yesterday. She took Zhao Lingjun's hand, walked down the street, and asked, "Sister, when did you wake up for the sixth time?"

   Zhao Lingjun smiled and said, "Not long ago."

   Zhao Lingyin said with emotion: "It's only been five years since you last awakened. So, after ten years, wouldn't it be possible for my sister to be promoted to the heavenly rank?"

   Zhao Lingjun shook his head and said, "It's not that easy, cultivation depends on chance. The bottleneck of the heavens is not so easy to break through. There are many people who have been trapped in the bottleneck for decades."

   Zhao Lingyin said: "I believe my sister will definitely be able to."

   Zhao Lingjun looked at her and said, "Don't talk about me, how about you, do you have the confidence to advance to the rank before the next big competition?"

   Zhao Lingyin stuck out her tongue and said, "It's very difficult. If the competition is postponed for another year, there is still a possibility."

   With her original talent, she still needs to practice for four to five years before she can hope to advance to the earth rank. Although the cultivation speed has doubled due to the dual cultivation of ice and fire these days, it is still impossible to advance to the earth rank within a year.

Zhao Lingjun thought for a while and said: "In winter, you and I can go to Daluo. It is best to advance to the ground before the competition. In this way, you can enter the Tianjiao list, which will be beneficial to your future practice. Great benefit."

   The geniuses from each country who have entered the Tianjiao list will be able to obtain extremely huge cultivation resources in the next three years, and the gap between them and ordinary geniuses will be further widened.

  The two sisters were strolling on the street for a while, Zhao Lingjun seemed to think of something, and suddenly asked, "Lingyin, do you know where Lihuayuan is?"

   Zhao Lingyin was stunned for a moment, then glanced at her sister secretly and asked, "You, what are you going to do in Lihuayuan?"

   Zhao Lingjun smiled slightly and said, "There is nothing else to do now, I want to listen to the music."

   Pear Garden.

   Today's Lihuayuan is still full of guests.

  Caiyi was singing on the stage, and suddenly felt something, and looked at the door.

   Two extremely beautiful women walked in from the door hand in hand. One of them, Caiyi, knew each other. They met once in Lihuayuan. She also misunderstood that she was Lin Xiu's wife, and the other...

   When she saw the woman, Caiyi panicked for no reason, and even her voice trembled.

   At this time, the woman's gaze also looked at Caiyi on the stage.

   The moment their eyes met in the air, they both guessed the identity of the other.
