"How many people are there?" Xue Yuning asked curiously.
The beauty of the Xue sisters has long been famous in Kyoto. Chu Chaoyi has not seen them many times. This time when they faced each other at close range, she still felt a little dizzy. After calming down for a while, she whispered: "There are three people. I will also talk to these three people in private."
We sent people to investigate, but we couldn't find any details."
Now Liang Xi and the Xue sisters were even more confused. They couldn't even find out Chu Chaoyi's energy. What were the origins of these three people?
"Could it be——" Xue Yurou looked around and said softly: "People from the palace?"
"It's not very clear." Bai Yiming shook his head, "We also asked the people in charge of registration at the time, and they had no impression of these three people, and the names of these three people have never appeared in Kyoto."
"Oh? What are their names?" Liang Xi looked at Chu Chaoyi.
Chen Shuci handed over the roster. There were only four names on the two palm-sized rosters. Liang Xi was at the top, and the next three were: Liang Sicheng, Liang Jianhong, and Liang Leyou.
"Hey! This is obviously because you have trouble with me!" Liang Xi's eyes widened, while Xue Yurou and Xue Yuning also covered their mouths and giggled.
Chu Chaoyi's face was also full of helplessness: "We also suspect that these three names are pseudonyms, so it's better to be careful. We don't know what they are. If they are -"
Chu Chaoyi didn't say the following words, but Liang Xi also knew what he meant.
Kyoto is currently in turmoil, and war in the Seven Realms is imminent. If these three people are arranged by the opposing interface, it will be very troublesome.
"I will try my best to control it." Liang Xi nodded solemnly.
Chen Fangyuan walked over at this time, with a cheerful look on his face, and waved to Liang Xi: "Good son-in-law!"
Hearing the disgusting name made Liang Xi get goosebumps all over her body.
"If you have something to say, say it quickly. Don't use such disgusting names, or I'll blow your ass out." Liang Xi angrily blocked Chen Fangyuan from two meters away.
Knowing Liang Xi's speaking habits, Chen Fangyuan didn't care and said with a smile: "Although today's situation has changed slightly, you will definitely win in the end, so it's not an exaggeration for me to call him that first."
"change?"
Chen Fangyuan's words suddenly caused everyone's expressions to change slightly.
"It's not what you think." Chen Fangyuan knew that several people would misunderstand what he meant, so he hurriedly waved his hands and said, "The specific situation is like this. Because I heard that the virtuous son-in-law participated, there were originally tens of thousands of people from the capital.
, and the foreign applicants who came here because of the reputation all of a sudden gave up. As a result, now there are only four talents including the good son-in-law, so some of the original selection items have to be changed."
"What kind of reform?" Liang Xi asked, while scorning Chen Fangyuan.
To get those applicants to give up, the old man's coercion and inducement were inevitable.
Pretending not to see Liang Xi's look of disdain for him, Chen Fangyuan said: "All the original selection items were overturned, and Zihan came up with the questions herself. She insisted that she would come up with a question to choose the person she expected."
"A question?" Everyone gasped.
I originally thought that I would see a wonderful competition, but I didn't expect that Chen Zihan was more ruthless than everyone imagined. It was just a question. If the speed was fast, it would probably be over in a few minutes.
Chen Fangyuan showed a troubled look and said, "I can't help it. Zihan must insist on doing this. This is the most important thing in her life, so I know to let her do it."
"Okay then, I'll settle the score with you later." Liang Xi glared at Chen Fangyuan and said, "Did you tell me what the topic was?"
Chen Fangyuan shook his head and said: "I asked Zihan not to say anything now, because if it is leaked in advance, people will be dissatisfied because of cheating."
Liang Xi's face suddenly turned red. She had seen such shameless people before, but she had never seen such shameless people. She scared the other applicants away and then said she would not cheat.
"Okay, I understand." Liang Xi gritted her teeth and said, "Since you've become a bitch, you can't leave the archway behind, right? Chu State's laws shouldn't prohibit beating your father-in-law, right?"
Chen Fangyuan chuckled and said quickly: "It's just a formality. We all know that Zihan only loves you, and we have made an agreement in private. Just say it."
"Okay, when will it start?" Liang Xi asked when she heard the bustle of people outside.
Someone nearby had already made arrangements. After receiving Chen Fangyuan's instructions, the person who looked like a master of ceremonies said loudly: "It's time in a quarter of an hour."
When the time came, the master of ceremonies followed Chen Fangyuan to the high platform.
Seeing today's host come to the stage, the crowd of spectators suddenly made a sound like a roaring mountain and a tsunami.
Liang Xi hid in the background and took a peek outside. There were probably no less than 100,000 people, and the square was completely surrounded.
Chen Fangyuan pressed his hands, and the crowd slowly quieted down. Because there was a loudspeaker formation, every word he said could be clearly transmitted to every corner of the square.
When Liang Xi scanned the crowd, she saw many familiar faces. She couldn't help but smile knowingly and said in her heart: "It seems that special defensive measures have been taken, but -"
A white light suddenly flashed in Liang Xi's mind. She quickly counted the days with her fingers. Her heart suddenly jumped hard. Her expression changed several times. She looked at Chen Fangyuan's back on the stage as if she was a different person.
.
Feeling that something was wrong in the atmosphere, Xue Yurou walked to Liang Xi and asked with concern: "What's wrong?"
"Nothing?" Liang Xi put on a smile and said, "I'm a little nervous seeing so many people. Senior sister, please give me a hug and encourage me."
As Liang Xi spoke, she stretched out her hand as if asking for a hug.
Xue Yurou's face turned slightly red, she glared at him and said, "You know how to think wildly. I don't believe you are nervous. I'm afraid you saw another beautiful girl?"
Xue Yurou said while looking out.
Liang Xi shook her head. Although she was laughing and joking on the outside, her heart was full of turmoil. She looked at Chen Fangyuan's back and became particularly deep: "Old man Chen, old man Chen, I didn't expect you to make such a big joke on the world.
, it seems that your identity and background are definitely not simple! You are betting on your daughter's lifelong happiness. Are you really sure that they will come today? Even if I guess what your purpose is now, I can't escape it.
Get ready."
Liang Xi raised the corners of her mouth, showing a helpless smile, and brought her thoughts back: "In this case, I won't let you down."
It took five minutes to activate the Star Sea Reflection Barrier and arrange it. At this time, Chen Fangyuan on the stage also finished his speech and mentioned the names of Liang Xi and the other three applicants.
