Struggle small peasant girl happy in the mountains and forests

Chapter 223
Tian Minghao and Tian Mingyu stood on a high place, condescendingly watching the expression on Hu Ke's face.

"Yu, it seems that we may not need to do anything today!"

"Let's just wait and see what happens, it will be better for them to bite dogs themselves!..."

Zhou Min led Hu Jixin into the gazebo, and introduced the scenery of Xingle Palace along the way, "Princess, please rest here with the general, it will start in a while!"

"Princess Hu, my prince said that in a while, there will be young people of the right age from various Tianyang Kingdoms showing their talents and martial arts. The princess can also ask questions. After the end, the princess will choose her son-in-law." Say it without missing a word.

"Thank you, His Royal Highness, for letting him bother! This princess is just choosing a consort, don't be too troublesome, just keep it simple!" Hu Jixin said polite and beautiful words, but she was so proud that she couldn't describe it in her heart. .

Liu Shu turned around and left with contempt and disgust on his face. If he didn't want your end in Tianyang to be too ugly, who would take care of you? It's really bad luck, so you can choose well, hehe... a bunch of short, ugly and ugly, you are satisfied !

"Princess, the servant will leave first. If something happens, the princess can just find someone to call the servant. Princess, please do it yourself!" Zhou Min left the pavilion with a few entourages.

Hu Jixin and Hu Ke sat on one side of the stone table, and the maids came forward to make tea with winking eyes, and then avoided to one side.

"Princess, today you have to choose carefully with your eyes wide open. The princess also witnessed the situation last night. There are so many charming men in Tianyang Kingdom!" Hu Ke blew on the tea in his teacup, pursing his lips and smiling.

Hu Jixin played with her fingers, dismissively, "Hehe, General Hu Ke is going to help the princess with a good advice today. This man is talented and has an amazing temperament. It is really hard to choose, no matter whether the princess is selected today. Which family's son-in-law is the son-in-law, that is Tianyang Kingdom's respect for this princess! And you, general, can only take a look here!"

A servant from the Ministry of Rituals brought a list of princes who had come to Xingle Palace for a few days to participate in the election, and came outside the pavilion, "I will see Princess Hu, this is the roster that the princess can recruit as a consort this time. Yang Jingdu and Guan are unmarried, and the sons of officials with four or more ranks are above them!"

"Well, thanks for your hard work, my lord, this princess will take a good look at it!" Hu Jixin motioned to Chuntao behind her to finish the roster, and her face was dyed pink.

Hu Ke drank tea and smiled lightly, without even looking at it, his eyes were slightly closed, and a storm was about to strike inside.

"Tianyang Kingdom is really considerate this day. The face roster is ready. Chuntao, let's leave the roster. This princess already has a candidate in her heart, so it's useless to ask for this roster!"

"Yes, princess!"

Suddenly there was a melodious flute sound in the distance, deep and melodious, like weeping and complaining, it resonated, and everyone in the garden was attracted.

The sound of the Xiao sound seems to have really crossed the mountains, crossed the river, and came here.

Until it reverberated throughout the garden, Xiao Yin instantly changed from hurt to joy, expressing a call as if seeing a lover, and then slowly returned to calm.

The lingering sound is evocative.

"Your lord's flute sound just now is so beautiful that it can be called good news. It kicked off the curtain for Princess Hu's coming to Tianyang to marry me today. All Tianyang talents who are present today can rely on their own abilities to win the favor of Hu Guo. For the princess's heart, you can compare it with words or martial arts, but it's up to you!"

Tian Minghao's voice resounded throughout the garden, and the strong inner strength, urging the tone, echoed in everyone's ears for a long time.

"The following will be presided over by Master Zhou of the Ministry of Rites. Everyone will show their strengths. One is to let the princess see the heroic appearance of my Tianyang man, and the other is to let the princess know what she knows! A better choice!"

"Master Zhou, let's start!"

The rules are set early in the morning, the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are literature, and archery and darts are martial arts.

The young heroes in each gazebo wrote their talents on paper one after another, handed them over to the guards, and sent them to Zhou Min. Zhou Min counted them one by one, and began to display various talents.

Piano skills are the first, there are five people in total, except for one who can catch the melody slightly, the other four are just enough.

"Princess, don't be offended. Tianyang's sons are generally good at calligraphy, painting and chess, but not proficient in music. They are mainly for the court to select talents. I hope the princess will forgive me!" Tian Minghao's voice sounded far away, and Hu Jixin didn't agree ignore.

The three items of calligraphy, painting and chess were carried out at the same time, and chess took the longest time. Mr. Zhou directly set up a chess game. Whoever solves the game first wins, which is simple and quick.

Hu Jixin knows nothing about chess and has no interest in it. Although there are many talented people in Tianyang, none of them are as useful as real martial arts.

"Princess, this is the work of calligraphy and painting talent just now, please admire the princess!" The servant of the Ministry of Rites held a stack of poems and paintings, and came to Hu Jixin.

Hu Jixin took a few glances at the top, and was a little interested, "Let's put it down, please trouble your lord!"

Each volume of poems expresses love and longing, or expresses ambition and aspirations, and each painting is either a picture of a lady, or a landscape splashed with ink.Hu Jixin couldn't understand at all, Hu Ke pursed his lips in contempt and laughed in his heart.

Suddenly, Hu Jixin's gaze focused on the painting he had just picked up in his hand. The painting was not surprising. The mountains and wild forests, with just a few strokes, could not be called a painting at all, but the corners of Hu Jixin's mouth twitched I smiled because I saw the word Yunfei in the corner of the painting.

Pull out the paintings individually, don't look through the rest, and throw them directly into Chuntao's hands.

Hu Ke was a little surprised and curious, raising his eyebrows, suspicious in his heart, and sneered in his heart after a while, even if you choose it, it’s useless!

"Chuntao, go and send a message to Mr. Zhou, just say that the princess doesn't like chess, so let's show off her martial arts directly!" Hu Jixin looked forward to Pei Yunfei winning the first place in archery and darts, and was a little anxious.

"Princess, this is not very good, why do we have to wait for others to finish the competition!" Hu Ke reminded from the side, "The princess should understand the rules and etiquette, and it is not good to disrespect people. If you want to participate in martial arts, because your chess skills are interrupted, it's not good to feel lost!"

Hu Jixin sneered, looked at Hu Ke, and snorted coldly, "My princess doesn't like chess, so naturally my princess's son-in-law can't like it either, so there is nothing to worry about, Chuntao, go and come back quickly, this princess wants to play chess." Quick fix, I don't want to sit bored in this gazebo anymore!"

"Yes, princess." Seeing that Hu Ke didn't say anything, Chuntao bowed her head and left.

Naturally, everything was done according to Hu Jixin's idea. The chess skill was canceled halfway, and the martial arts show started directly. Mr. Zhou read the list one by one, and everyone went to the field.

Hu Jixin has been looking forward to the name in her heart, but she hasn't heard it for a long time.

"Princess, my crown prince is looking for you to come over." A strange guard came over to send a message.
