"Big Brother Zhou, do you want to go outside and celebrate with everyone? It's very lively outside now. The City Lord has just decided to hold a lantern riddle competition tonight. Whoever guesses the most riddles will be the champion and receive a Yin and Yang Pill as a reward. Many people are already rubbing their hands and preparing to show off their skills tonight. "
At this moment, a young girl in a blue dress walked in from outside. One could feel the gentleness of a Jiangnan woman from her body. She was gentle. Her appearance could be said to be one in a thousand and could be considered very outstanding. She had the temperament of a pretty girl from a humble family. Her eyes seemed to be like ripples of water, making people who saw them involuntarily feel a trace of softness.
"Xiao He, the Human Race has obtained first place, so it is naturally worthy of celebration. The lantern riddle competition is also a joyous occasion. However, compared to the Imperial Examination, the latter is more important to me. This is a chance that I have been waiting for a long time to stand out. "
When the young man heard this, he looked at the young girl with a gentle gaze and said slowly.
"Big Brother Zhou, I have also heard that talented people like you also pay attention to the balance between work and rest. With Big Brother Zhou's talent, you will definitely be among the top in the Imperial Examination. Moreover, Xiao He also heard that this Imperial Examination is not only testing one's literary talent, but also testing one's various skills and understanding the people. This is also the main point of the examination. Let's go, Big Brother Zhou. Let's go and guess the lantern riddle together. If you win, you will also receive a Yin and Yang Pill. It is said that the Yin and Yang Pill is a pill that the King personally refined and is very magical. Usually, very few people can get it outside. You will also need to go to the Achievement Hall to exchange for it. "
Xiao He quickly said, although her voice was still very gentle. However, it gave people an urge that they could not refuse.
When the young man heard this, a look of helplessness appeared on his face. In the end, he put down the scroll in his hand and stood up, saying, "Alright, since that's the case, let's go and see the lantern festival."
.....
In an immortal city, a young man in a moon-white robe was reading aloud. There seemed to be an awe-inspiring righteous aura circulating around him. However, no matter how one looked at it, his face seemed to be a little dark. There was also a birthmark on his forehead. The birthmark was still a little dim, but it was very eye-catching under his dark skin. The moonlight was very clear.
"Son, your chance has come. His Majesty Da Yi has issued an imperial edict to begin the imperial examinations. As long as you seize this opportunity, you might be able to stand out and enter the Imperial Court of Da Yi, becoming a member of the Ten Thousand Immortal Palace. His name entered the Investiture of the Gods. Steamed Bun, us mother and son were able to survive in this chaotic world all because of Da Yi, because of His Majesty's benevolence. We must repay this kindness. If it wasn't for Da Yi's protection, we would have starved to death. How could he live such a good life? One must know how to repay kindness. "
A middle-aged woman walked into the house. When she saw the young man, her face was filled with love, but at the same time, a serious expression appeared on her face.
"Mother, don't worry. I've been waiting for several months for this Imperial Examination. No matter what the examination is, I'm confident that I'll do my best. My talent is naturally to serve Da Yi, to serve His Majesty. Without His Majesty's benevolence, us mother and son would have starved to death. How could we live such a good life where we can study and cultivate? "
The young man said with a serious expression.
"Good. That's my good son."
The middle-aged woman nodded and said with a gratified expression.
.....
In the Great Change Territory, in the various Immortal Cities, there were almost too many cases like this to mention. There were too many of them. Da Yi had millions of citizens, and who knew how many dragons and snakes were hibernating, waiting for an opportunity to leap over the dragon gate and soar into the sky. The Imperial Examination was the dragon gate that they had been waiting for for a long time. For this day, they had been hibernating for too long, accumulating for too long.
"No matter how the Imperial Examination is conducted, I believe that I'll be a dragon among men. I'll definitely stand out and become the champion among thousands of soldiers and horses. I'll be recognized by His Majesty. "
"Da Yi is the dynasty of fate. As long as you pass the Imperial Examination, you'll definitely be able to enter Da Yi's imperial court. You'll be blessed by fate and have faster cultivation speed. This is the path to immortality. How can we not chase after it? "
At this moment, each and every one of the geniuses revealed an intense fighting spirit. Even though they knew that the imperial examination was a one-plank bridge, and only a small portion of them would be able to successfully cross it, no one would give up. This was a path to success.
They could truly see the hope of immortality and stand out.
The various immortal cities also sang and danced because the humans had won first place. They even held all kinds of celebratory activities. All of this filled Da Yi's territory with a festive atmosphere.
The surrounding non-human tribes were extremely silent.
Especially outside Da Yi's borders, the tribes near the Iron and Blood Great Wall looked at the Iron and Blood Great Wall and heard the cheers and shouts from within the Great Wall.
No words were spoken. No other actions were taken.
The existence of the Iron and Blood Great Wall could be said to have cut off communication to a certain extent. The territory that could be traversed became a natural barrier. It couldn't be crossed easily.
"Pass down the order. Tell the tribes to prepare for migration. This human Da Yi is very ambitious. He definitely won't just let the Great Wall cover his territory. He'll definitely use it to start a war and expand."
Some nearby tribes made a decision after a moment of silence.
"Send out more spies. We must keep an eye on the Iron and Blood Great Wall. No matter what news there is, report it immediately. The human Da Yi won't be able to expand easily. Does he really think that we'll be afraid of these human ants?"
Some tribes that were clearly unwilling to accept the human race's strength reacted decisively.
There were all kinds of reactions.
However, there was no doubt that no one dared to underestimate Da Yi. Even the tribes that had decided to fight against the human race started to prepare immediately. Not only did they set up all kinds of traps, they also prepared their own trump cards. They were confident that if Da Yi dared to charge forward, he would definitely break a mouthful of teeth. No tribe was truly weak. The weak had already been swallowed up and destroyed. Those that survived were all strong.
.....
However, Yi Tianxing didn't care about any of this. After the court meeting was over, he headed straight for the Imperial Garden.
As soon as he entered, he heard a burst of clear laughter, as well as the sounds of women singing could be heard.
When he looked carefully, he saw that Cai Yan, Yao Yue, and Lian Xing were walking together, and Yao Yue was holding Little Anning in her arms. Lian Xing would occasionally reach out to tease Little Anning, but Little Anning would constantly reach out and reject her. Her cute and naive appearance made the girls chuckle. The unfamiliarity of meeting for the first time was swept away by this laughter.
Naturally, the two of them became closer to each other.
Moreover, Hua Mulan and Mu Guiying were both present, and they were also teasing Little Anning. It was as if they were treating her like a cute toy.
With a child around, it was easy to close the distance between strangers.
"Little Anning has become a mascot."
When Yi Tianxing saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel a bit strange, and a thought flashed through his mind.
Following this, he smiled and stepped forward, reaching out to hug Little Anning as he said, "Anning, come and let father hug you. I haven't seen you in a few months, and I've missed you to death."
He reached out and hugged Anning in his arms, holding her in his hands as if she was a perfect and rare treasure. This kind of careful action was something that he would never do for other things.
She could still feel a kind of love and gentleness from the bottom of her heart.
"Husband, you're back."
When Cai Yan saw this, his face was filled with happiness and joy as he spoke gently. That voice made one feel as if they could unconsciously let go of everything and enjoy this warmth. It was as if all of their fatigue had been swept away.
It was the warmth of home, and they felt endless security and comfort.
"It's been hard on you, Zhaoji."
Yi Tianxing said with a smile.
"It's not hard at all. In terms of hard work, how could it compare to husband fighting countless powerful enemies? That was the true hard work. All I can do for husband is look after Da Yi's foundation and wait for husband's safe return. "
Cai Yan said with a gentle smile.
"This is Yao Yue, Lian Xing. You should already know each other, right? Originally, I should be the one to introduce you, but because of the court assembly, I can only let you get to know each other first. "
Yi Tianxing looked at Yao Yue and Lian Xing apologetically.
This time, it was his fault for letting them face Cai Yan alone.
A new wife meeting a first wife was always a tormenting and uneasy matter. It was his fault for not being by their side.
"Big Sister Zhaoji is very nice. Also, Little Anning is very cute."
When Lian Xing heard this, a smile appeared on her face, and she looked at Little Anning with fondness.
Little Anning seemed to have a strange power that made everyone who saw her feel fondness for her.
"Husband, do you really think that Zhaoji is a jealous woman who can't tolerate newcomers?" When Cai Yan heard this, she rolled her eyes at Yi Tianxing and said coquettishly, "Zhaoji originally wanted husband to add a few sisters to the harem. Firstly, the palace would not be as cold as before, and secondly, they would be able to serve husband better. In the past, when Zhaoji wanted to hold a selection for you, you said that it would be a nuisance, so you didn't allow it. Now that Yao Yue and Lian Xing have been found, I can only be happy. How could I be dissatisfied? In the future, I will have a few people to talk to in the harem. "
Cai Yan said slowly. There was no reluctance in her expression, but a trace of sincerity. This was clearly a thought that came from the bottom of her heart.
Of course, it was impossible to say that she wasn't jealous, but this kind of thought would not affect her mind.
