Riding the Pheonix Chapter 477: Changed


Wang An excitedly tugged on Yang Shu's sleeve: "Do you think they can win?"

Yang Shu only glanced at it, opened the fan to fan the wind, and said lazily: "None of them."

Wang An was surprised: "You're saying no before you even show your signature?"

Yang Shu twitched his lips: "I can see it with my eyes."

When he reminded him, King An remembered it.

This guy has very poisonous eyes. In the early years, when Ye Zi played with him, he would definitely lose. Later I learned that he could tell the difference between each card from the same back.

Unfortunately, he knew it too late and had already lost so much that he did not dare to gamble.

The two people showed their lot and found nothing, so they left in disappointment.

……

Wen Ying followed her mother into Xuandu Temple.

Zhike led them to a side room, served them a pot of tea, and then left.

Mrs. Cheng Enhou couldn’t help complaining: “We have donated so much sesame oil money, but we are only given this room?”

The wing room is so small that once the masters sit down, there is no room for them, so the maids and servants have to stand outside.

The old lady of the Hou Mansion drooped her eyelids: "Xuan Du Guan has a transcendent status and is not short of money. How can you bribe him with a few sesame oil coins?"

Hearing that her mother-in-law was displeased, Mrs. Chengenhou restrained herself a little, and couldn't help but said: "At least for the sake of the prince..."

"If it weren't for the prince, we wouldn't even have a room like this." The old lady said lightly, "Do you know how many people are eyeing the position of Princess Yue this time? Among all the ladies of the right age in the capital, who has some wealth, who wouldn't want to come? Want to try your hand? Even the Lu family has people here."

Mrs. Chengenhou was surprised: "Isn't the Lu family very noble? Even the crown prince is not willing to do so."

"The Lu family is not just the direct branch. It is a famous family and there are countless descendants from the collateral line. It may be said that they are of noble birth, but it is just superficial beauty. When it comes to choosing a princess, they can't even remember their names. How could they let this opportunity pass?"

Wen Ying listened and tightened her clothes.

She is already nineteen, a real old girl, and her family cannot let her wait until she is twenty, so this year is her final deadline.

If it doesn't work out this time, she will have to choose someone from the family that she likes. To say that those families are not bad, but they are not the legitimate sons who will inherit the title. Wen Ying wants to be the crown prince, so how can she see it?

Seeing her daughter like this, Mrs. Chengenhou comforted her: "That's what I say, but the identity of the King of Yue is a bit embarrassing. Not everyone likes it, and it would be a lot if there are more than a hundred people."

The old lady is not so optimistic. The capital is so big and the circle of powerful people is not small. How can there be so few young ladies of the right age? There are only a few people at the top who want to have a relationship with him, but the middle-level people don't care. Hundreds of people? This is too good a thought.

Wen Ying looked outside frequently: "Has it started already? Will someone win first?"

"Probably not..."

Just after I finished speaking, a servant came hurriedly to report: "Old lady, madam, something is wrong!"

Mrs. Hou in the room was frightened and said angrily: "What's wrong? Speak up!"

The servant gasped and replied: "Because there are too many people, the method of drawing lots has been changed!"

The whole room was dumbfounded: "What?"

They have already communicated with the prince and have thought of ways to cheat. Now they have changed it?

"Change it to what?" Mrs. Chengenhou asked anxiously.

……

The main palace did not expect that there would be so many ladies in the capital.

According to the numbers reported by the chamberlain, they did nothing today. They just watched people draw lots until it got dark, and they couldn't finish the draw.

The emperor can't keep watching such a boring thing, right?

Xuanfei came over and asked.

The emperor was startled after hearing this: "There are so many people?"

Xuanfei replied: "Yes, every place in the temple is full of people." After a pause, he added, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid this method will have to be changed, and it will never be completed."

"From what you see, what should we do?"

"Why don't we smoke them at the same time."

"How to smoke at the same time?"

Xuanfei signaled the Taoist priest guarding the temple to get the lotus tubes and said: "The poor Taoist asked his disciples to bring out a few ordinary lotus tubes and let them draw them all at once. Anyone who wins the first lot can go into the palace and shake the phoenix lotus. That's it. First of all, the number of people entering the temple is limited, so the Holy One and the ladies can ask and take a closer look."

The emperor looked at Concubine Pei: "What do you think, concubine Pei?"

Concubine Pei smiled and said: "It's boring to watch it all day long, but the Imperial Master's method is not bad."

Concubine Hui also said: "If you win both rounds, it shows that it is destiny."

The emperor nodded and looked at Yang Shu again, but saw that he was in a daze, so he asked with a smile: "Why, are you worried that the person is not your destined person? I said, you can just accept him into the mansion if you like, It doesn’t hurt to give her a little more dignity, and given her family background, it’s not an injustice to be the second concubine.”

Yang Shu pursed his lips and said with several stubbornness: "Just smoke, she must be the one!"

The emperor shook his head helplessly and told Xuan Fei: "Then let's do it!"

The prince, who had been sitting quietly by the side, flashed his eyes, stood up and said: "Father, since it will take a while, I will go change my clothes first."

The emperor responded casually.

Prince Jiang Sheng went out from the back door and saw Wen Yuan waiting there.

"Where is Mr. Fu?"

Wen Yuan saw something from his anxious look and said hurriedly: "Waiting in the neighboring courtyard.~IndoMTL.com~Hmm."

The two of them quickly went to the yard next door and got into a wing room.

"Your Highness?" Fu Jin stood up and looked at him with a frown in surprise.

"Something happened, there were too many people, we had to smoke twice..."

After hearing the prince’s explanation of the new lottery method, Fu Jin asked, “Are they going to get the lottery tube now?”

"Yes." The prince hesitated, "Can my third cousin still win?"

Fu Jindao: "The time is so short, we can't play tricks on the signature, we have to think of other ways."

"Sir..."

Fu Jin thought for a while and replied calmly: "Your Highness, don't be anxious. I'm responsible for this. I still have some time to make it work. Just go back and don't have to do anything."

His attitude infected the prince, and his tense mood gradually relaxed, and he cupped his hands and said, "Then there is Mr. Lao."

Fu Jin smiled and said: "Your Highness, please always remember that you are a noble person from heaven and the future king of a country. Your subordinates will take care of these small things for you. There is no need to panic."

After hearing this, the prince felt very comfortable and said: "In that case, I will go back first, sir."

Congratulations to Fu Jin.

On the way, Wen Yuan asked: "Your Highness, can Mr. Fu really do it? They will get the lottery tube and send it outside immediately. It won't be long! I can't think of a way no matter how hard I think about it. ”

The prince said: "Mr. Fu said it can be done, so it can be done. How else can he become famous all over the capital?"

Thinking about the prince, he felt happy: "It is such a blessing that such a person is willing to fight for an orphan."

Wen Yuan complimented: "You are the future emperor, the destined lord of the world, and you will have heroes to join you."

The prince laughed, feeling happy and returned to the palace.
