Chapter 342 If you are not careful, you will become the eternal sinner of Dayong
While asking, Huo Qingchen also took the memorial in his hand and read it quickly.
He reads very quickly and can finish ten lines at a glance.
In a blink of an eye, the above content became clear to me.
Just as Chu Huaixu just said, this year's Three Kingdoms Competition has indeed been changed!
In previous years, the Three Kingdoms Tournament was divided into three matches, with two wins in three games.
But this year, there is only one match.
The minimum age for participating in the competition is ten years old and the maximum is twenty years old.
Each country has only seven places.
Huo Qingchen placed the memorial on the table and was silent for a long time before he said, "This way, the younger ones don't have to go with us. This is good news!"
I was worried before, what if they were exhausted or in poor condition after the long journey?
Now, there is no need to worry about that at all.
Chu Huaixu nodded and said, "From this perspective, this is really good news."
But that's the only good news.
If we only play one game, we must be fully prepared and can only win, otherwise we will never have another chance!
Huo Qingchen counted on his fingers, "There are seven spots, and the three of us already occupy three. Add in Wen Xiangli, my eldest brother, and there are two spots left. What kind of people should we choose?"
Chu Huaixu shook his head slightly, "Let's discuss this matter after I see my father!"
Huo Qingchen also knew that such an important matter could not be decided by just the two of them talking casually. In the end, it would still depend on the emperor's arrangements, so he nodded.
Both of them seemed to be a little worried. For the rest of the time, they sat quietly, thinking about their own things and didn't say anything.
The two of them didn't stand up until they saw Yu Youning coming out of the clinic.
As soon as they stood up, they saw Yu Youning looking up at them and waving at them with a smile.
The two of them quickly went downstairs and soon came to Yu Youning's side.
Yu Youning's eyes moved around the two people's faces. "You seem unhappy. What's wrong? What happened?"
What could happen in such a short time?
Huo Qingchen handed the letter to Yu Youning, "It's about this year's Three Kingdoms Competition. The rules have suddenly changed."
Yu Youning opened it and nodded in understanding after seeing the contents. "So that's how it is! This is a good thing! Just one match, so we can finish it quickly. Then we can come back if we win!"
Hearing Yu Youning's words, Huo Qingchen instantly became full of passion.
"Youning is right! We can definitely win!"
If others say this, it will be regarded as bragging.
But no one would think so when Yu Youning said this.
Chu Huaixu also nodded, "Youning is right, after we win, we will come back quickly and not waste time!"
"Let's go! Mother told me to go back early!" Yu Youning said.
The three of them hurriedly got on the carriage and returned to the Wen Mansion.
At this time, there were already quite a few carriages parked outside the Wen Mansion.
Yu Youning is a young genius doctor respected by everyone in the capital. She is also the granddaughter of the owner of Penglai Island and the eldest daughter of the Wen family.
There were originally many people coming to her birthday party.
Not to mention, Yu Youning was canonized as the Crown Princess that morning.
Although everyone knew that Yu Youning would become the Crown Princess sooner or later, knowing it in one's heart was one thing, and seeing it become a reality was another.
After hearing the news of the arranged marriage, all those who came to celebrate Yu Youning's birthday increased the size of their gifts by 30%.
Yu Youning didn't go back to change her clothes either. She liked her current outfit very much.
After the three of them entered the mansion, they went straight to find Yu Tingwan.
There are already quite a few ladies and young ladies here.
When they saw Yu Youning coming, they all stood up and even wanted to salute Yu Youning.
Seeing this, Yu Tingwan hurriedly stopped him.
Even though the decree has been issued, the marriage has not yet taken place, so Yu Youning is not yet the real Crown Princess.
If he accepted these people's gifts with peace of mind now, they would not say anything on the surface, but they would probably say behind his back that Yu Youning was arrogant.
Yu Youning definitely doesn't care about what these people think.
But Yu Tingwan could not allow others to talk about Yu Youning like this.
After Yu Tingwan stopped everyone, she looked at Yu Youning with a smile, "Youning, come quickly and meet the ladies!"
Yu Youning walked over and bowed generously, "Youning greets all the ladies. Thank you for coming to celebrate my birthday."
Seeing this, many people immediately moved aside.
Just then, a shout rang out.
"The Queen has arrived!"
"Princess Nan'an has arrived!"
"The princess has arrived!"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
Why did the Queen come here in person?
Even if he was interested in Yu Youning, wasn't this a bit too much?
But no matter what they thought in their hearts, no one dared to delay and they all knelt down to welcome the arrival of the queen.
The queen was very quick. When she came in and saw Yu Youning and Yu Tingwan kneeling to salute, she hurried over and helped them up, one in each hand.
"Hurry up and get up! You won't have to perform such grand formalities when you see me next time!"
After helping the two of them up, he looked at the others and said, "You all get up too!"
"Thank you, Queen!"
As the crowd spoke, they stood up one by one.
After standing up, everyone increased Yu Youning's importance.
It seems that Yu Youning’s importance in the Queen’s heart is even greater than they thought before!
The queen took Yu Youning's hand and sat down, and had someone present a gift. It was exquisite and gorgeous, and many women and girls' eyes lit up when they saw it.
Whether Yu Youning liked it or not, the smile on her face was always bright.
"Thank you, Queen!"
The Queen touched Yu Youning's head and said, "What's there to thank each other for? As long as you like it, that's all!"
With the arrival of the queen, everyone naturally became a little more reserved.
But the queen didn't care about them. She only talked to Yu Youning and Yu Tingwan.
It was not until after dinner, when it was already dark, that the Queen reluctantly stood up.
At this time, other people also heard that not only the queen had come, but even the emperor had come!
It’s just that the emperor was in the front yard and didn’t come over.
Since the emperor ascended the throne, he has never celebrated anyone's birthday like this.
This Wen family!
It’s incredible!
Why couldn’t they give birth to a granddaughter like Yu Youning!
It’s really frustrating to compare yourself with others!
Everyone felt sad, but they still respectfully saw the emperor, empress and prince off.
After they all left, Chu Qingran took Yu Youning's hand.
"Youning, I wanted to have a good talk with you today, but I didn't expect the Queen to come back. I can only find another opportunity in the future."
Yu Youning smiled brightly at Chu Qingran, "I have nothing to do tomorrow, so I can go to the Nan'an Palace!"
"Really?" Chu Qingran was very happy. "Then I'll wait for you in the palace and have someone prepare your favorite snacks for you!"
After the two of them had made the decision, Chu Qingran happily left with Princess Nan'an.
After seeing off all the guests, it was already late.
Even though Yu Youning was always full of energy, he felt a little tired. He would deal with other things until tomorrow.
The next day, after breakfast, Yu Youning went to the Nan'an Palace.
He chatted with Chu Qingran for a while, took the pulse of Chu Qingran and Princess Nan'an, and looked at the twin boy and girl.
The twins are now over four years old.
It's the cutest time.
The two little people have different clothes and hairstyles, but they look 90% similar.
Yu Youning was pulled by them and called sister, and her eyes were always curved with a smile.
After playing for the whole morning and eating a lot of snacks, Zhu Xuezhen didn't come back until it was almost lunchtime.
In the past few years, Yu Youning has not gone to the Imperial College to study, but he has seen Zhu Xuezheng frequently and listened to his lectures frequently. It can be said that he has received a lot of special tutoring.
After those years, Zhu Xuezhen was not much different from a few years ago.
That serious injury did not leave any hidden dangers under Yu Youning's treatment.
Zhu Xuezhen has been different in recent years than in previous years.
He not only taught at the Imperial College, but also helped many poor students by always going to small bookstores to give them free lectures.
I don’t know if it’s because his thoughts have become clearer or because he’s doing what he likes, but Zhu Xuezhen seems to look a little younger.
"Youning!"
Zhu Xuezhen called out Yu Youning, but his voice was a little serious and his brows were slightly furrowed.
"Xuezheng! What's the matter?"
Looking at Yu Youning's beaming face, Zhu Xuezheng found it hard to smile. "You already know about the changes to the Three Kingdoms Competition rules, right? What do you think?"
"What are you thinking?" Yu Youning was a little confused. "No matter how it's changed, the competition still has to happen!"
Zhu Xuezheng, however, was not so relaxed. "You know, not only have the rules changed this year, but even the rewards have changed."
"What has it become?" Yu Youning was a little curious.
The memorial I saw yesterday didn't mention anything about rewards.
Zhu Xuezheng sighed, "In this Three Kingdoms Competition, each of the three kingdoms will offer ten cities as rewards. Whoever wins will not only keep their own kingdom's cities, but also receive ten cities from another kingdom."
Yu Youning's brows also furrowed, "Why is this happening? This has never happened before!"
"Yes! It has never happened before, but so many changes have happened this year. I am completely baffled. However, the rules have been set and there is no possibility of changing them.
The only thing we can do now is to carefully select the people who will compete and strive to win first place."
"Has the candidate been decided?"
"Five have been confirmed, and there are two more that are still being debated. At the morning court today, all the officials were arguing about this matter."
"Do they all want their children to go?"
"That's not the case. They just don't want to go."
Zhu Xuecheng spoke in a heavy voice, and then he sighed again.
If you win, it's fine, but if you lose, won't you become a sinner?
These officials are all very smart. How could they be willing to put themselves and their children in such a situation?
