After kicking Chou Chou away, Xia Qingchen sat back expressionlessly and said calmly: "A dog's words are unbridled, you don't have to worry."
"Ahem..." The monarch suppressed his embarrassment.
He was quite angry and regretful.
In fact, what Qiuqiu said is not wrong.
Those famous books are indeed good books with thoughtful ideas and connotations!
The monarch gradually became serious and said: "This is the first time that Shenxiu has expanded its territory. I want to grant amnesty to the whole world and celebrate it as a whole!"
For the first time in hundreds of years, the Principality of Shenxiu expanded its territory, which is certainly worthy of celebration.
Prince Yun Shu raised his eyebrows and said: "Father, the people of the Northern Kingdom have never been trustworthy. It is best not to reveal the information before they have mastered Lianxing City."
Princess Tianyin also agreed.
Do everything before talking about it, so as not to disappoint the people.
"Yes, I'm confused." He was so happy that he lost all control.
The monarch sighed: "I am old and no longer suitable to manage the country, so I decided to pass the throne to one of Yun Shu and Tian Yin."
After experiencing this incident, he deeply felt that his energy was no longer what it was when he was young.
In many aspects, he is not as good as Yun Shu and Tian Yin.
This time, because of his own actions, he almost missed the centenary destiny of the Shenxiu Principality.
Therefore, I am determined to abdicate and make way for someone more worthy.
Prince Yunshu and Princess Tianyin trembled in unison. The monarch's abdication came too suddenly!
The monarch looked at Yun Shu, then at Tian Yin, and said, "Two princes, what is the basis for the establishment of my royal family?"
Is it a huge army?
Is it wealth?
Is it power?
neither!
Prince Yunshu and Princess Tianyin both replied: "It's martial arts!"
Their royal family has been able to control the Shenxiu Principality for many years because of martial arts!
The royal family sends talents to the Martial Arts Heavenly Palace every three years. Over time, the talents sent have become a strong support behind the royal family of the Shenxiu Principality.
In exchange, the royal family takes care of the families and clans where the geniuses reside.
Because of this, the royal family can stand firm for hundreds of years.
"That's right! Martial arts!" The monarch said majestically: "All glitz and glamor are based on martial arts! Therefore, I will give you two a chance to compete fairly."
Prince Yunshu and Princess Tianyin became solemn.
"Five days from now, it will be time to search for the true dragon, and the Martial Arts Heavenly Palace will come to recruit outstanding disciples!" The monarch said: "You two, each recruit those who have the hope of entering the Martial Arts Heavenly Palace."
"At the end of the true dragon search, whoever recruits more people to enter the martial arts heavenly palace will be the next king!"
Hearing this, Prince Yunshu and Princess Tianyin both looked moved.
That's the time to compete for connections.
In this aspect, Princess Tianyin obviously has an advantage.
Her mother is a queen and has a natural advantage.
After a banquet, both of them ate absentmindedly.
When the banquet was over, the king left first.
Prince Yunshu and Princess Tianyin both looked at Xia Qingchen.
It's just that Prince Yunshu's eyes are more eager.
Xia Qingchen knew what they wanted to say, and sighed: "Two of you, one has saved my life, and the other has saved my father's life. Please don't make things difficult for me."
Both princes and princesses are thoughtful people.
The words that came to my lips were taken back silently.
"I want to ask Mr. Xia to accompany me to the temple." Prince Yunshu changed his words.
In the temple, the top three on the list of gods are practicing in the fire tower.
If we can recruit them, it can be said that the outcome is determined.
Because in each session of the True Dragon Search, no more than ten people are selected by the Martial Arts Heavenly Palace.
Mastering the three of them is equivalent to being in an invincible position.
"I also want to ask Mr. Xia to accompany me." Princess Tianyin stared at Prince Yun Shu.
The two people's eyes met, and fierce sparks naturally collided.
"Why must I go?" Xia Qingchen asked puzzledly.
Prince Yun Shu said: "The top three on the Shenxiu List are all arrogant and do not bother to deal with those with low martial arts skills. To be honest, I have made friends with them in private, but they were not tolerated."
Accommodation has never been obtained, and recruitment is even more impossible.
Their status as princes does not have enough weight in front of the first three Shenxiu.
And Xia Qingchen has a powerful demon pet, which may be able to barely equal them.
Princess Tianyin said: "That's what I mean too."
It turns out that she was also treated lightly by the top three in Shenxiu.
Xia Qingchen pondered for a long time and shook his head slightly: "I'm afraid not."
Both of them looked disappointed at the same time.
Isn’t it even possible to accompany me? This request is actually not difficult, right?
"It's not that I don't want to help, but I'm worried that it will be a disservice." Xia Qingchen said frankly.
The two were surprised: "Why?"
Xia Qingchen said: "The young master of the Imperial Palace Temple has been to Yun Gucheng before, and unfortunately, he also developed a grudge against me."
"If we go to the temple here and meet him, we will inevitably have a conflict. It will be of no benefit to you in recruiting the three heroes in the Fire Tower."
Xia Qingchen still had some impression of the young palace master named Mo Yuan.
Given the narrow-mindedness of this person, there is no guarantee that he will not get in the way.
Therefore, if he goes, it is better not to go.
"You don't have to worry about this at all." Prince Yun Shu looked relaxed and said, "Master Mo Yuan is currently recuperating in the most prestigious Emerald City."
The Emerald City has a famous Emerald Hot Spring.
Soaking the body in it is good for injuries.
"Based on Mo Yuan's injuries, it should be impossible for him to come back and join the search for the true dragon." Prince Yunshu said.
Is that so?
Xia Qingchen shattered Mo Yuan's bones that day.
Unlike external wounds, they can be healed in a short time with plaster.
Broken bones will take half a year without expert treatment.
"Okay, since you said so, I will accompany you two, but whether they are willing to see me and whether they choose you after meeting me depends on how you convince them."
Prince Yunshu and Princess Tianyin both nodded happily.
"After they leave the fire tower, I will personally come to ask Mr. Xia for help." Princess Tianyin smiled happily.
Xia Qingchen nodded.
It will also take some time for him to strive to break through the seventh level of the Zhongchen position.
Farewell to the two of them, Xia Qingchen went back alone.
Qiu Chou stayed in the royal family and continued to guide the fire lion and cultivate the relationship between the fire lion and the two female lions.
Return to the mansion.
Auntie and Zhao Churan were packing their things.
"Qingchen, my aunt has thought about it. Churan and I plan to return to Yun Gucheng." My aunt had a look of relief on her face, as if she had seen through a lot.
Mother and daughter already knew that Xia Qingchen was about to leave after participating in the search for the true dragon.
Although the Green Willow Villa in front of them is nice, it is not their home.
"That's good, Yun Gucheng has a father here and will take good care of you."
With Nanxia Mansion's current status in Yun Gucheng, who dares to bully their orphans and widowed mothers?
And for his sake, the temple and martial arts pavilion will take care of everything.
Rather than letting them stay in the baseless imperial capital, it would be better to return to their hometown, Yun Gucheng.
The aunt nodded, but she felt a little pity for her daughter.
Today's Xia Qingchen is no longer something that her daughter can grasp.
However, Zhao Churan had already looked away.
Love is the hardest thing to force. She once missed an opportunity and it would be difficult to win cousin Qingchen's heart again.
"Cousin Qingchen, the search for the real dragon is coming soon. I have booked an admission pass to the Shenxiu Palace for you. I hope cousin Qingchen will have the opportunity to use it."
She took out a folded voucher.
It turns out that as the search for the real dragon approaches, many contestants want to test their strength in the competition.
So Shenxiu Hall is already overcrowded.
Went there on the same day and couldn't get in at all.
Only book a few days in advance.
Xia Qingchen felt slightly moved in her heart. She was about to leave, but she was still thinking about Xia Qingchen.
Xia Qingchen asked himself as he looked at the young girl with her face washed away and facing the sky.
If it hadn't been for that unpleasant first meeting, would their relationship have ended as it is now?
With a hint of complicated emotions, Xia Qingchen sent her mother and daughter to the dock ship.
The boat slowly sailed towards the distant Yungu.
Zhao Churan stood on the bow of the boat, silently watching Xia Qingchen.
Under the clear blue sky, the fairy shadows in green skirts are like poetry and picturesque, going away little by little.
Suddenly, Zhao Churan took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and threw it to the shore: "Catch it!"
