The residence of the eldest prince, Zhou Shenghan was the main seat, Dong Fan and a counselor were on both sides.

"The eldest prince, the Holy Lord asked the eight princes and the Ninth Princess to each of the eight princes and the Ninth Princess to select five foundation-building warriors to represent Yunwu County and the Qingzhou competition competition is worth pondering. I think this is very likely to be the Holy Lord's assessment of the eight princes. Which prince's chosen power has achieved better results is very likely to have an active advantage in the future inheritance of the throne. However, let the Ninth Princess also select five people, which is unpredictable."

The strategist on the side analyzed it carefully.

"The Ninth Princess is not afraid of it. One is that there is no precedent for the princess to inherit the throne in Yunwu County. Two is that the Ninth Princess has no power of her own and cannot make any waves. I think it is not easy for the Ninth Princess to gather five high-level warriors in the foundation-building realm. It is better for the eldest prince to sell the Ninth Princess. I recommend some candidates for him. After all, the Ninth Princess has some weight in the heart of the Holy Lord."

Dong Fan is a general of the Yulin Guard under the command of the eldest prince Zhou Shenghan, and is deeply trusted by Zhou Shenghan.

"What you two say makes sense. We must seize the opportunity a year later. We can select and select widely from forces such as Yulin Guard and Duanmu family. We must choose the strongest five-man group. At least we must stand out among the eight princes. As for Xiaojiu, I will show kindness to her. It doesn't matter whether she accepts it or not, at least our attitude has been made."

Zhou Shenghan made up his mind.

"In addition, General Dong and Nangong Shi have contacted him? Although Nangong Shi is a prince with a low position, he has a great status after taking the word "Nangong". Moreover, it is said that this Nangong Shi is doing well in the Tianlan Kingdom and has a good relationship with a powerful prince. If he can contact this prince through Nangong Shi and put pressure on his father through this prince, it will be of great benefit to my future inheritance of the throne."

When Zhou Shenghan heard that the envoy of the Tianlan Kingdom had arrived at Yunwu County, he immediately assigned Dong Fan to contact Nangong Shi.

"Don't worry, the eldest prince, I have contacted Nangong Shi's accompanying him. It is said that this Nangong Shi is interested in money and greedy for beauty. As long as we pay enough, we should have the opportunity to get the support of this little prince."

Dong Fan swore faithfully.

In the residence of the third prince, Zhou Shengxiang and several confidants were also conspiring.

"The father's move is nothing more than to consider our eight brothers. Except for the strong strength of our elder brother and second brother, the other five are not afraid of it. Xiaojiu, but Xiaojiu, surprised me. Half a year ago and the feast of the horses, it was already suspicious. This time, Xiaojiu also recommended five candidates. The purpose of the father's emperor is elusive. Logically speaking, Xiaojiu should not be among the candidates for the position of the Holy Lord, otherwise Xiaojiu would not have been given any force to rely on for so many years.

Since the father loves Xiaojiu, we are happy to be a favor. The Qilin talented man who has been carefully collected over the years is time to come in handy. In addition, the patrol battalion and the Han family where the mother's mother is located should also be investigated carefully and not missed any of the strongest candidates. A total of ten people were selected, and we will retain the strongest five people ourselves. The next strongest five people will be recommended to Xiaojiu at that time. It is also good to get a good start in front of the father."

The third prince Zhou Shengxiang is worthy of being meticulous and is very careful in his preparations. Except for Zhou Zhengyu who did not guess the purpose of the deliberate trial of the Ninth Princess Zhou Ruozhu, the rest are basically guessed.

In the second prince’s mansion, Zhou Shengjin and Zhou Ruozhu were walking in the garden.

"Xiaojiu, my father instructed us nine brothers and sisters to recommend five candidates to participate in the Qingzhou Competition a year later. I am planning to select from the military I control and my mother's family. Do you need to help you find five candidates?"

The second prince's mother's surname is He. She comes from the He family, one of the four great masters of Yunwu County and the country. She is the most reliable force for the second prince Zhou Shengjin.

Although they are not a compatriot of the same mother, Zhou Shengjin has always cared about the Ninth Princess Zhou Ruozhu. The Ninth Princess lost her mother since childhood and was raised by Concubine He when she was a child, so the two have the closest relationship.

"Thank you, second brother, it's not necessary yet. I'll find five candidates by myself first. If it really doesn't work, I'll ask my second brother for help."

At this time, the first thing that the Ninth Princess thought of was Xuan Yuanhao, who had become a brother and sister of the opposite sex with her.

"Xiao Jiu, my father's move is far-reaching. Although I have no intention of the throne, this Qingzhou competition is too important to Yunwu County and the country, I will naturally do my best. I guess the elder brother and the third brother will have a big fight. My father has always loved you. I guess the elder brother and the third brother will most likely win you over. You should pay attention to it yourself and try not to get involved in the right and wrong of the imperial power. But don't worry, as long as the second brother is still there for one day, I will keep you safe all day."

Zhou Ruozhu was moved by his second brother Zhou Shengjin's heartfelt words.

The beauty has broken her kindness before she grows old, and the most ruthless imperial family is the most ruthless emperor. Even the affection between flesh and blood and brotherhood cannot resist the temptation of power.

At this time, Nangong Shi and his party were enjoying VIP-level services comfortably in the Honglu Temple, which was hosting VIP-level guests.

"Nangong Xiao Prince, as you expected, we have only been here for a day, and five princes have handed over a greeting and sent gifts, among which the gifts from the eldest prince Zhou Shenghan and the third prince Zhou Shengxiang are the most heavy. The Holy Lord of Yunwu County will hold a grand welcome dinner tomorrow. At that time, all the princes, princes, and civil servants and generals of Yunwu County will attend."

A companion said.

"You just tell the princes that I am busy recently and have no time to meet you. I will be neglected for a while. But I can secretly hand over the greetings and what gifts I have given to them privately. I guess after the welcome feast tomorrow, several princes in Yunwu County will still squeeze out their heads with heavy gifts to ask for me."

Nangong Shi ordered the follower to make arrangements in an orderly manner to maximize the profits.

As the legend says, this little prince of Nangong is a person who loves money and is greedy.

"Brother Zhao, Yunwu County is just a rural area, it is just a fourth-class bronze county. The country's strength is weak and the property is depressed. I guess I can't come up with any decent gifts. Brother Zhao, please see for yourself. The gift list sent by Yunwu County and the gift list sent by several princes. If you like anything, please use it. We brothers don't have to be polite."

The "Brother Zhao" mentioned in Nangong Shi is a direct descendant of the Zhao family, one of the four masters of Qingzhou. She is named Zhao An. She is about the same age as Nangong Shi, about twenty years old, and has a handsome appearance, but she also shows mercy everywhere and plays with flowers and plants. She can be regarded as a stinking and feuding with Nangong Shi.

On the evening of the next day, Yunwu County held a grand national guest banquet in the palace, and welcomed Nangong Shi, the envoy of the Tianlan Kingdom, and his party.

Although Zhou Zhengyu couldn't stand the style of Nangong Shi holding chicken feathers as a command arrow, there was nothing he could do. After all, Nangong Shi came on behalf of the Tianlan Kingdom. Zhou Zhengyu was not afraid of offending Nangong Shi, but he did not dare to offend the huge Tianlan Kingdom.

A group of civil and military officials, nine princes and princesses, attended the state guest banquet.

The welcome dinner was very ceremonial.

As the chief minister of Yunwu County, Bao Runzhe gave a welcome speech on behalf of Yunwu County, which was nothing more than thanking the Tianlan Kingdom for its care and love for Yunwu County over the years, and thanking Prince Nangong Shi for coming thousands of miles to convey the message of Qingzhou’s competition.

Nangong Shiye said a word of encouragement and blessing on behalf of the Tianlan Kingdom, which was nothing more than Yunwu County, the country of Tianbao, the people and the land were outstanding, the fog line of Xiongzhou, and the handsome and the star of the star. He hoped and wished that Yunwu County and the state of Yunwu County would perform well in the Qingzhou competition in a year later and achieved good results.

After that, no one can tell the difference between the cup and the host and the guest and the host and the guest have fun. There is a little bit of true feelings and false intentions. No one can tell the difference, and no one wants to tell the difference.

After the eight princes toasted Nangong Shi according to their seniority, the eldest prince, the third prince, the fourth prince, the sixth prince and the eighth prince were particularly active and frequently toasted Nangong Shi to show their goodwill, in order to leave a good impression, and agreed to see Nangong Shi alone.

The ninth princess Zhou Ruozhu sat quietly, and this kind of false occasion was not what she liked.

Although Zhou Ruozhu just wanted to wait quietly for the feast to end, Nangong Shi's glance almost changed Zhou Ruozhu's life.

At this time, Nangong Shi was drunk and looked at him and saw a beautiful woman with a frown and a quiet orchid as quiet as a virgin sitting on the prince's table.

I searched for him for a long time, but when I looked back, the man was in the dim light.

Nangong Shi asked the eldest prince Zhou Shenghan, who happened to come to toast.

Zhou Shenghan said as if he was offering treasure: "That is the sister of the Shemei, the ninth princess of Yunwu County, the pearl in his father's eye, the jade age, and he has always had a close relationship with me. When I come to join the house, I invite Prince Nangong and Shemei to visit my mansion."

Nangong Shi was in a good mood and took the initiative to raise his glass to show his goodwill to Zhou Shenghan. Zhou Shenghan was flattered and thought that if it could promote a marriage between Xiaojiu and Nangong Shi, it would definitely be beneficial for him to inherit the Grand Principle.

The next day, Nangong Shi regarded himself as a noble status and was arrogant. He took the initiative to propose to Zhou Zhengyu that he fell in love with the Ninth Princess at first sight and intended to take the Ninth Princess as his concubine.

If a powerful prince from the Tianlan Kingdom asked to take the Ninth Princess as his concubine, Zhou Zhengyu might have been helpless in submitting to the other party's power, but a powerless prince like Nangong Shi actually spoke arrogantly and proposed to take the Ninth Princess as his concubine;

Moreover, according to the information obtained by Yunwu County, the little prince of Nangong Shi has always been flirting with her, showing mercy everywhere, and there are many wives and concubines at home;

Moreover, in the past few days, Nangong Shi's fox pretended to be powerful and was domineering, which made Zhou Zhengyu look down on him quite dislike him.

Zhou Zhengyu said seriously: "Although Yunwu County is small, the Ninth Princess is also a princess of the same country. The Ninth Princess is only for the main wife and not as a concubine. If Princess Nangong is interested, please ask the Ninth Princess to marry after she became an 18-year-old, and the three and six-members will be hired to marry her."

Zhou Zhengyu’s meaning is very obvious. First, you can marry the Ninth Princess, but the Ninth Princess is only for his wife and not as a concubine; second, he comes to marry after he is eighteen years old.

In more than two years, many things will happen, and nothing is possible.

Bao Runzhe, who was accompanying one side, wanted to beat Nangong Shi into a pig's head, but he dared to dig the corner of my Bao family.

Nangong Shi thought that he could easily marry the Ninth Princess, but he didn't expect Zhou Zhengyu to make excuses him and was furious. However, Zhou Zhengyu spoke so loudly that he could not tolerate his attacks. Moreover, he had a stable foothold in the Tianlan Kingdom and could not put pressure on Zhou Zhengyu for the time being.

Since the road cannot be reached, just cross the bridge. What I, Nangong Shi, like, is not unsuccessful?
