Chapter 041 Shopping
.the next day.
Wuchen and Ningxue rose very early, but the sun obviously rose earlier than them. The wind was sunny and the cloudless. Everything in the Ye family was as usual. Except for the two parties involved, no one knew that a "big event" actually happened last night. Ye Wuchen never thought Ye Shuiyao would tell this. With her seemingly indifferent personality about everything, she might not take this matter too seriously. Because after all... she is still a sibling in name.
At this time, Ye Wuchen had already changed into a luxurious snow-clothed suit that Xiaolu brought him. His hair was tied up, and he was extremely handsome. There was an evil smile on the corner of his mouth. He looked at Xiaolu with a look of arrogance, and he almost couldn't find Bei. Wang Wenshu was even more satisfied and couldn't stop talking, because her son not only had outstanding appearance, but also had a significant change. He was no longer as cold as yesterday, but had a smile on his face, which meant that he had begun to accept this family.
What a perfect image of a young white face... Ye Wuchen said to himself after looking in the mirror.
After breakfast, the Ye family immediately became busy. Ye Nu and Ye Wei went out. Ye Wuchen took Ning Xue around the huge Ye Mansion and found that he seemed to be an idle person.
"Xiaoqi, accompany me to go shopping. Xiaoba is here. If the wife asks me for it, she will say I'm going shopping and will be back soon. Oh, by the way, go and prepare a fan for me."
"Yes, yes!" Ye Qiyeba responded at the same time. Soon, Ye Ba took a white jade fan and followed it with his hands.
Ye Wuchen took it and swung it in his hand, and asked with a smile: "Xue'er, see if my brother looks like a young master of aristocratic family now."
"As long as you are brother, you will always be the best." Ning Xue blinked her eyes and answered the question that she was not asking.
"I knew you would say that." Ye Wuchen smiled dotingly, then waved his fan: "Xiaoqi, let's go."
Ye Qi hurriedly followed. The fool could see that the young master who was serious yesterday seemed to be in a surprisingly good mood today as if he had changed his own person.
The streets are very lively, and all kinds of people flow endlessly, demonstrating the prosperity of Tianlong Capital. Ye Wuchen held a fan in one hand and Ningxue in the other hand, swaying in the middle of the road, nobility and arrogance are undoubtedly revealed. With his amazing appearance, he stands out as conspicuous as a crowd among the mixed crowd. Passers-by subconsciously made way for him, which made some unmarried women look at each other frequently, but they will immediately bow their heads sadly and feel ashamed. Because such temperament is definitely not something that ordinary big families can cultivate.
Although the news of the missing Ye family’s young master’s return has spread throughout Tianlong City, since the Ye family’s young master rarely goes out, there will be no one who knows him at all. Even if someone has seen him occasionally, he has forgotten him for a long time, so no one recognizes him.
"Xiao Qi, how far is this place from the palace?" Ye Wuchen asked.
"Young Master, it's very close. It only takes about half an hour to ride a horse. If you ride a horse, you will arrive soon." Ye Qi replied.
"Oh... Then let's go to the palace to take a look."
The closer the palace is to the northwest of the Ye family’s mansion, the more dense the crowds are. After walking for more than ten minutes, Ye Wuchen frowned and asked, “Xiao Qi, is there something going on recently? Most of the pedestrians here are young, with a hurry and dressed in different clothes. They will subconsciously look around while walking, and obviously have never been here or rarely come here. Is there any gathering in Tianlong City today?”
"Young Master is wise. Tianlong City will hold an annual selection of young talents at Tianlong Royal Academy these days. All people under the age of 25 can participate. The emperor will personally watch and select talents. So many people who participated in the competition and watched."
"Oh? How to compare the method?" Ye Wuchen asked.
"This... the battle between the literature and the martial arts are the first, and the martial arts are the last. This year's literary figure just ended the day before yesterday. The martial arts start tomorrow, and tomorrow is the preliminaries. Multiple games are held at the same time to screen out the real strong people. The emperor will not watch it. The acquired dynasty is the real strong people competition, and it is also the most popular every year. And today is the last day of registration. Ah... Master, you can tell if you go and look at that." Ye Qi's eyes lit up and pointed ahead.
There was a big announcement posted on the wall, and such announcements are now all over the city, and they are available every year. Few people don’t know the content, and at most they can confirm the time, so there is no phenomenon of crowding around. Ye Wuchen was about to get closer, but suddenly stopped because he saw a back that left a deep impression on him.
In contrast to Ye Wuchen's gorgeous white clothes, he was wearing black clothes and a little worn. He stood quietly under the announcement, his whole body still motionless. Ye Wuchen seemed to see a sharp blade that penetrated straight into the ground, releasing the cold and cold light.
Ye Wuchen had just seen this person in front of Mengyanlou yesterday. At that time, he was walking past him with a middle-aged woman who seemed to be blind. His cold aura and sharper gaze than a hungry eagle made him remember this person firmly.
Walking to him, Ye Wuchen glanced at the announcement roughly. Putting aside those long-winded opening remarks, the content is roughly the same as what Ye Qi said. Tomorrow is equivalent to a selection match, and the post-natal genius is the real young strongman to compete. The rules of the competition are the challenge system.
Ye Wuchen's eyes slanted slightly, looking at the boy next to him who was about the same age as him, thin and cold-faced, but found that his eyes were staring at the bottom of the announcement.
Ye Wuchen turned around and pulled Ningxue away.
The content below the announcement is: "The first general was summoned by the emperor and obtained a spirit-level weapon, 5,000 taels of silver, and a residential house in the north of the city. The other ten selected by the emperor were rewarded with 1,000 taels of silver, and they were appointed as the royal guards at will, and they would have no worries about food and clothing for their entire lives..."
Such conditions may not be generous, but for most people, they want fame. Once they become famous all over the world, the road of life will be smooth. For some people, they may not care about fame, but about the tempting reward.
That person is the latter. Now he is a person forced by life. He needs money, so he will participate in that competition.
"Well, young master, do you want to sign up?" Ye Qi asked with a nervous look. He was still afraid that this young master would not be able to figure out how to really sign up for the competition... The result must have been a shame to the Ye family. The former young master of the Ye family was such a waste of money in the whole city. Although it is normal now, he still looks like a scholar without any power.
"I will not participate, just take a look." Ye Wuchen said.
