Chapter 94

August fifteen.

Mid-autumn night.

When the lanterns came on, the entire Xixia capital was bustling with excitement. It coincided with the election of the son-in-law, and the whole country was jubilant. The capital also ushered in the happiest Mid-Autumn Festival ever.

All those who came to run for the position of son-in-law were also invited to a dinner in the palace, which was also the first round of selection.

The selection is divided into two rounds, the first round is military selection, and the second round is literary selection.

A group of people boarded their respective carriages assigned by the palace, passed through the bustling downtown, and headed for the palace.

Xiao Jun and Wang Yuyan also took a carriage and were going to accompany Duan Yu into the palace.

on the carriage.

"You don't want to enter the palace to run for election, do you? The first round is a military election. If you run for the election, I'm afraid no one will be your opponent."

Wang Yuyan looked at Xiao Jun who was leaning against the car window without saying a word, and said slowly.

Hearing Wang Yuyan's words, Xiao Jun couldn't help laughing, this is all a little woman's mind, for fear that the man she likes will fall in love with other women, she is always tempting.

"Compared to being the son-in-law of the Western Xia Dynasty, I would rather be with you on the street to admire the lanterns and flowers."

Xiao Jun looked at the bustling street outside the car window, said slowly, and finally turned his head to look at Wang Yuyan.

The slightly clumsy love words had already made Wang Yuyan blush.

"Who wants to enjoy the lanterns and flowers with you"

Wang Yuyan rolled her eyes at Xiao Jun, she couldn't hide her joy in her heart, but she still had a stubborn look.

Women, creatures who always say what they say and what they don't mean.

"Then who do you want to accompany? Prince Zongzan?"

Xiao Jun looked at Wang Yuyan and asked seriously.

Wang Yuyan turned her head to look at Xiao Jun in surprise, a little astonished.

"What are you talking about? How did you get involved with that person?"

Wang Yuyan said in doubt, while revealing a look of disgust.

Seeing Wang Yuyan's serious expression, Xiao Jun couldn't help laughing.

Only now did Wang Yuyan realize that Xiao Jun was deliberately making fun of her, and she couldn't help but shook her head.

While the two were flirting, everyone had unknowingly entered the Xixia Palace and the princess' bedroom.

There is Qingfeng Pavilion in the palace, which is the place where the princess specially entertains guests, and it is also the place where the dinner party and the first military election are held.

Under the leadership of the maid, everyone walked into the Qingfeng Pavilion slowly and sat in their seats.The location is booked in advance, sorted according to identity and status.

It's a pity that there is no place for Xiao Jun in the main seat, and his place is in the second row.In the first row are Duan Yu and Zong Zan, followed by Murong Fu and others.

Duan Yu was somewhat concerned about this arrangement, originally he tried his best to invite Xiao Jun to sit with him, but Xiao Jun refused, and honestly took Wang Yuyan to sit in the second row.

Originally, he wasn't here for the election, but just to watch the fun and help Duan Yu at the right time, so where he sat didn't seem so important.

Soon, the long-famous Princess Xixia came to Qingfeng Pavilion surrounded by a group of maids, and sat on the main seat, but she was surrounded by a veil, and no one could see her appearance at all. , only a rough outline of the figure can be seen.

Looking at the scenes in front of him, Xiao Jun couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The original plot himself was the absolute protagonist of this election conference, and even this conference was prepared for him by Princess Xixia, but now it seems that he has become a terrible Dispensable foil, not even qualified to sit in the first row.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jun couldn't help but shook his head with a wry smile.

Following the appearance of Princess Xixia, a group of people also appeared outside Qingfeng Pavilion, surrounding the entire Qingfeng Pavilion, all of them were holding weapons and looked indifferent.

The leader was a burly figure, eight feet tall, with a fierce face and a long sword in his hand. After arranging the guards, he walked into the Qingfeng Pavilion, stood in front of the princess on the left, and patrolled the scene coldly. everyone.

If Xiao Jun guessed correctly, this person should be the leader of Xixia Yipintang, Helian Tieshu, the number one master of Xixia.

Xiao Jun remembered that it was this person who led the people from Xixia Yipintang and arrested all the members of the Beggar Gang when the Beggar Gang forced Qiao Feng away. In the end, it was Qiao Feng who rescued the members of the Beggar Gang.

He also thought of the ecstasy medicine commonly used by Xixia Yipintang, the sad crisp breeze, which can make people weak.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jun couldn't help but look at this person a few more times. The friction between the Song and Xixia borders has been going on for years, and this person is inseparable.

"His Royal Highness said that you have come from afar, Qingfeng Pavilion does not have good wine and delicious hospitality, it is really negligent, please drink as you please."

A maid slowly walked to the front of the stage, looked at everyone present and said slowly, with a smile on her face and a sweet voice, she seemed to be well-educated, she should be the personal maid of Princess Xixia.

As the words fell, another group of maids came in, holding a variety of delicacies and vintage wines in their hands, and set up a table for everyone present.

Great wine, everything, even a dancer.

A group of people are no longer polite, they should eat and drink, and their eyes are straightened when they look at the dancing maids in the arena.

Especially Prince Zongzan, who looked as if he hadn't eaten for more than ten days. He was eating and drinking while watching. He was extremely greedy. There was no place that matched the name of a prince. No matter how you looked at it It looked vulgar.

Murong Fu on the other side looked at Prince Zongzan's appearance, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, he shook his head, he already had a plan in mind.

As for Xiao Jun, besides chatting, laughing, eating and drinking with Wang Yuyan, his eyes glanced at Helian Tieshu from time to time.

Because he always has a feeling that if this person is in Xixia, there will never be peace between Xixia and Song Dynasty, and this person will also be the biggest resistance when Princess Xixia and Duan Yu inherit the imperial power of Xixia.

After drinking for three rounds, the maid walked out slowly from Princess Xixia's veil again.

"It's almost time. The first round of martial arts election can start. You are all heroes in the world, you can challenge freely, but there is one thing, the martial arts election is only to select the strongest martial arts as a reference for the princess, and it does not mean that the martial arts is the best." The strong one is the candidate for the son-in-law, so please be sure to stop at the end, only the superior and inferior, regardless of life or death."

The maidservant spoke eloquently, her words were neither humble nor overbearing, it seemed that she had grown up in the palace since she was a child.

As the maidservant's voice fell, some people stood up immediately, each picked their opponent, came to the field, and launched a one-on-one competition, but because no one was allowed to come in with weapons, they could only fight. Some punches.

With the start of the competition, the atmosphere on the scene was pushed to the peak, and cheers and applause erupted from the crowd from time to time.

But Xiao Jun looked around absent-mindedly, chatting with Wang Yuyan without saying a word, and didn't spend his thoughts on the ongoing martial arts election at all.

Because he knows that the people who are appearing now are just passers-by in this general election. They are all a group of people who can't make it to the stage. They just serve as a hot spot, and the real highlight is yet to come.

He was also thinking about whether to tell Duan Yu the ultimate method he knew, so as to help him directly choose the candidate for the son-in-law, but he was a little uncertain whether his ultimate method would still work.
