"What a good family of generals …" I didn't expect that although the eldest son of this generation's Northern Marquis wasn't good at martial arts, his literary talent was outstanding.
However, although it's good to keep a low profile, don't belittle yourself too much. In the future, don't mention the words of Householder Qing Lian in your dreams … "
The Underworld Emperor said with a profound meaning in his words. It was obvious that he did not believe in the so-called Qing Lian Scholar.
Many of the officials present also nodded their heads. They guessed that Ye Fan had been a trash for a long time and didn't have much confidence. Or perhaps he didn't dare to admit that these poems were created by him.
This was also very normal. In this world where the strong were respected, martial arts were valued more than literature. Many scholars didn't dare to be too flamboyant.
Moreover, Ye Fan was born in a family of generals. He wasn't good at martial arts, but he was good at literature, so he was afraid that he wouldn't like him.
However, as an emperor, the Emperor of the Underworld was very clear that although he relied on cultivation and experts to conquer cities, he still relied on some civil officials to truly govern the country.
"Imperial Uncle, you are the examiner. What do you think?" The Emperor of the Underworld looked to the side.
Luo Beiwang knew that the Emperor of the Underworld and everyone present had already approved of him, especially those civil officials and concubines. They all admired Ye Fan's poems.
Asking him now was nothing more than giving his uncle some face.
"To be able to get His Majesty's praise, it naturally won't be wrong. This subject also admires such a young and talented person." Luo Beiwang said with a smile. leaf
On the side of the Northern Marquis' estate, Ye Xianqing, Ye Shui, and the others broke out in cold sweat as they looked at Ye Fan in disbelief.
After all, when Ye Fan returned to his mansion, he was so stupid that he didn't recognize anyone. How could he remember any poems? Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes.
"I knew it, big brother is not an ordinary person! He must be working hard in secret! "Ye Xianqing was the happiest. She pursed her lips and smiled sweetly, her eyes filled with pride.
"This kid …" He's hiding it well. How good would it be to say these poems in the Rainbow Cloud Workshop … "Ye Danqing felt a wave of regret.
On the other side, Luo Beiwang walked back and glared at Luo Hongfei in displeasure.
Luo Hongfei, on the other hand, was gnashing his teeth, his eyes filled with confusion. Seeing that the palace ladies and officials were still praising Ye Fan's poems, he became even more furious.
Originally, he wanted to see Ye Fan make a fool of himself, but in the end, he made a comeback in front of the Holy Emperor!
He didn't even need to think to know that after today, no matter how bad Ye Fan's cultivation was, he would at least have the title of "Scholar".
At this moment, the gate of the Heavenly Snow Temple opened.
There were already three ridges set up inside. One was a path of cold water shrouded in white mist, the other was a path of black charcoal burning with flames, and three pieces of black iron of the same size and shape smeared with bright red paint.
An official from the Board of Rites stepped forward and shouted, "The martial examination begins! Prince Consort, please pass! "
The two palace maids ran in front of Ye Fan, squatted down, took off Ye Fan's shoes, and rolled up his trousers, barefoot, revealing his two calves.
Fan Xian understood that this cold water was similar to "liquid nitrogen", a type of liquid that would appear during the refining process of medicinal pills.
It was non-poisonous and non-corrosive, but its temperature was extremely low. Even a Core Formation cultivator could only stand in it for three to ten seconds with the protection of their true essence.
And the black charcoal on the fire path had a temperature of more than a thousand degrees. It was even harder to resist than the cold water.
The last three pieces of black iron seemed to be about the size of a person's arms, but they all weighed more than four thousand kilograms!
Even if he used his true essence to strengthen his body, it wouldn't be that easy. After all, it wasn't as simple as shaking the black iron, but rather lifting it steadily over his head.
Normally speaking, if it was a cultivator who had just entered the Core Formation stage, they would be able to barely pass by relying on their true essence to protect their body.
To truly pass this test easily, one would usually need to be at least at the seventh level of the Core Formation stage.
Just now, the topic of the examination had been changed, so Ye Fan didn't expect the martial examination to not be tampered with. However, he didn't care at all. This martial examination was much simpler than the written examination!
He stepped into the cold water on the far left, which was also the "number one" waterway given by the answer.
Sure enough! This water was incomparably cold, and the cold air was still trying to drill in. If it was an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator, they would probably be unable to move their feet in a few seconds!
However, with his physical fitness, it was like warm water, without any pain.
In order not to arouse suspicion, Ye Fan still planned to pretend to be a little more difficult, so he began to perform with a pained expression …
"Hiss …" Ye Fan sucked in a breath of cold air, quickened his footsteps, and quickly ran over.
Luo Hongfei, who was standing beside his father, was astonished to see Ye Fan actually pass by.
Soon after, Ye Fan panicked and quickly ran across the fire path.
Although it was a close call, Ye Fan's suffering appearance still caused the group of people behind him to laugh heartily.
The Emperor of the Underworld and the Empress also smiled as they watched. "Empress, look, this child's expression is quite rich."
"Yeah, back then when His Majesty married this concubine, he had a calm expression on his face." Luo Feiyan's eyes were filled with reminiscence.
"How can this kid compare to me?"
"Your Majesty is right, your concubine has said the wrong thing."
Finally, Ye Fan arrived in front of the black iron, and according to the answer given, he walked to the side of the second piece of black iron.
Ye Fan took a few deep breaths, and then, as if he was full of energy, he hugged the black iron with both hands, his face flushed red, and then slowly raised the black iron above his head!
"Good!" "Alright!" Ye Shui applauded loudly. The group of people from the Marquis' Mansion also felt relieved.
"This kid, his acting skills are really good, it's just like the real deal." Ye Danqing applauded and muttered with a smile.
Ye Xianqing angrily said, "Luckily the martial arts exam wasn't changed. That Luo Hongfei is really a despicable person …"
At this moment, Luo Hongfei was at a loss. He didn't know what was going on. Could it be that the person he bribed didn't do anything?
"Congratulations to Prince Consort for successfully passing the trial! Prince Consort, please enter the palace to marry the Grand Princess! "
Following the loud shout of an official from the Ministry of Rites, Ye Fan sighed with emotion. He had finally finished the show!
After waving his hand at the group of applauding nobles, Ye Fan immediately ran into the Heavenly Snow Hall.
When he arrived at the hall, he saw four palace maids dressed in festive attire bowing to him. One of the palace maids handed a red rope to Ye Fan.
"Prince Consort, please." leaf
The sail pulled over the red rope, and at the other end of the rope was a bride wearing a phoenix crown and a robe that covered her face.
She wore a long wedding dress, revealing her fragrant shoulders and lotus arms. Her graceful figure was exactly the same as the Su Qingxue in Ye Fan's memories!
"Qingxue …" Ye Fan couldn't help but mutter to himself. He subconsciously stepped forward and was about to lift the red veil. one
The palace maid was frightened and hurriedly stopped him, "Prince Consort! You can't! It's against the rules! You have to return to your wedding room! "leaf
Fan Xian felt as if he had just woken up from a dream. He knew that if he were to break the rules now, he might cause big trouble again, so he might as well endure it for a while longer.
Behind the red veil, Qingxue was very quiet, as if nothing had happened.
This point also made Ye Fan's heart turn cold. That's right, if she really was his wife, how could she not have any reaction when she saw the Ye Fan from before?
Holding the red rope, Ye Fan brought Su Qingxue outside the palace.
This time, bowing to the Emperor of the Underworld and the Empress was unavoidable. After all, he had married his daughter, so bowing to him was not excessive.
After the ceremony, the princess boarded the wedding carriage, and the wedding procession left the palace in a grandiose manner.
Watching the wedding procession leave, the Emperor of the Underworld had a complicated look in his eyes as he let out a long sigh.
"Your Majesty, this is a happy occasion for Qingxue. A good thing, you should be happy." Luo Feiyan smiled and advised, "If you miss her in the future, just summon her back to the palace."
"Empress, it's not like you don't know that Qingxue and I only speak a few words a year."
Summon her into the palace … I'm afraid I won't. I just hope that in the remaining days, she can be as free and happy as Prince Consort Ye said … "The Emperor of the Underworld smiled bitterly.
"Your Majesty is too embarrassed to speak, so I will also find an opportunity to summon the Grand Princess into the palace. Although she is not my biological daughter, I am still her mother in name." Luo Feiyan said with a smile.
The Emperor of the Underworld gratefully shook the Empress' hand, "Feiyan …" "Thank you."
After that, the Emperor of the Underworld raised his hand, and everyone outside the palace retreated.
When there was no one outside the Heavenly Snow Hall, Luo Hongfei's figure walked back.
Taking advantage of the fact that the Fire and Water Black Iron in the martial arts examination had not been removed, he tentatively placed his hand on the surface of the water to feel it …
"Hiss!"
