[Comprehensive] The Giant of the Red Chamber

In a blink of an eye, it was the opening ceremony of the "Choosing a Husband" contest. The sun was shining brightly, colorful flags were fluttering, firecrackers were blasting, and fireworks were everywhere.Wait, this is not the opening of the hotel, nor the completion of the building, so stop messing around.Although the description is a bit exaggerated, it doesn't look like choosing a son-in-law, but it doesn't feel too bad.

Before the official start, the scene was filled with the smell of gunpowder one after another. The sons of each family secretly used their eyes to fight in secret, trying to overwhelm a wave of competitors with momentum before the start, so that they would lose before they even played. courage.

As the heroine, Daiyu sits on a high stand, surrounded by layers of veils, no matter how wide the eyes of the young masters below, they can only see a slim figure, and nothing else can be seen.

Except for some noble family members who had glanced at them from a distance at certain banquets, or were told by their sisters and mothers that this person's appearance was rare in the world, their faces were still calm at the moment; Long neck, praying for a gust of wind to blow up that annoying veil, and see what the hot contender looks like, but don't try your best. Finally came out on top and married a dominatrix If you go back, you will have to die.

Daiyu on the stage is not interested in the row of young masters below. Recently, she has been living in a daze. Well, what kind of madness does the cheap father have? The world—the royal princess is about to choose a son-in-law, and there are men of the right age to join.Now that there is such a huge battle, I don’t know if it’s because there haven’t been many drafts in the palace these years. Father, you, the old man, can’t bear it for a while, and you have to hold a large-scale male draft contest, and she doesn’t have the throne To inherit, why bother.

Before she was freed from the affairs of the princess mansion, Daiyu was carried up to the high platform, thinking only hahaha!

Bored and bored, Daiyu listened to Father Cheap's impassioned opening speech on the other side of the high platform, praising Daqi's good men and talents, and encouraging them to perform well.The inside and outside of the words reveal that although there is only one princess, she can only be handed over to the family in the end, but as long as she is a talent, her performance will be of great use in the future.

As soon as the scene was instigated, good guy, I clearly felt that the atmosphere on the court was ten times more enthusiastic, and the smell of gunpowder became more intense.Before, some of them were sloppy and nonchalant, but they all obviously straightened their faces.I didn't expect it before, this is also an opportunity to express myself in a disguised form. I thought there was only one princess, and there were too many opponents. I had little chance of winning. I was forced by my family to have no choice, so I had to go through the motions.Now it seems that as long as you perform well and get registered in front of the emperor, are you afraid that there will be no errands, then your official career may be improved to a higher level in the future.

These young masters lack everything, but sometimes they lack a little opportunity for the emperor to discover himself.After all, relying on the family relationship also has to pay attention to the right time, place and people. If you pull too much, you may be labeled as relying on the family by the emperor, and the good impression will be gone.This time is different, the emperor has an intuitive feeling whether it will work or not, although he will not watch the whole process, but someone will report it, whether the one he personally approves is the same as the one recommended by his family, of course it is different.

So one by one suddenly got enough energy, thinking about not getting down in the first round, and preparing to work hard for the third round; thinking about passing the third round, don't look too ugly, so I want to move forward Ten to work hard; those who want to be in the top ten start aiming at No.1.After all, the higher the ranking, the more likely the emperor will discover his excellence.

Some people even think too much, thinking that the emperor is selecting talents in disguise, otherwise a princess choosing a husband is not her own.Miscalculation, miscalculation, why didn't I think of this earlier.For those who were forced by their families to run for the election, their original reluctance disappeared now.

Nangong Yan watched the atmosphere where Emperor Daqi was provoked for a moment, and felt a toothache for a moment. Come on, this competition is much more intense.Along the way, he always felt that Emperor Daqi was one step ahead of him in everything and could always disrupt his plans.When I came to the scene, I saw a lot of people with a careless attitude. I thought it was just a pretense. The pressure in Nangongyan's heart was less, but who would have imagined it? With just a few words, everyone was beaten up. Chicken blood is average, and he almost rushes forward screaming.

It's not that Nangongyan is not confident. His knowledge and talent are among the best in Southern Xinjiang, but after all, there is a big difference between Southern Xinjiang and Daqi's culture, and he doesn't know what to assess now.Although he has no problems with piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, bowing and archery, he is afraid that the answers will not meet the appetite of the examiner, which will be embarrassing.Nangong Yanyin was hidden in the crowd, feeling a little apprehensive in his heart.

Leaving aside Nangong Yan, as far as the young masters of the aristocratic families participating this time, there are three people who are most likely to win the championship in one fell swoop, and two of these three are direct descendants of old aristocratic families.Because the emperor has been suppressing the aristocratic family openly and secretly all these years, he can't understand their intertwined forces. Although these two families have always acted safely, they deliberately let their descendants gradually fade out of sight these years, trying to keep a low profile.They haven't entered the emperor's blacklist yet, but the two families are afraid. They are always worried that one day the emperor's sword will fall, and the building will collapse, and how hundreds of people will live.

So after learning that Lin Ruhai's daughter is now Princess Showa's choice for a husband, the family thinks it's time to increase the hole cards, even if they are really wiped out by the group in the future, at least they can keep a bloodline.Thinking about it better, would Lin Ruhai be able to see death if he really got married?Can the uncles just sit back and watch?They are all characters who can make the capital tremble three times by stomping their feet, and it is enough to pull them out.To be disrespectful, this is equivalent to being married to the emperor indirectly. Before the emperor prepares a pot, he always has to think about it. If it is not possible, he can be punished lightly and give them room to breathe and recuperate.

Therefore, one of the direct descendants with the highest status, the best character and knowledge, and the best appearance in the family is introduced, and it is aimed at winning the championship in one fell swoop.They don't dare to fool people with those superficial appearances. When the time comes, it's not marriage, it's enmity.Don't talk about pulling, because of the Lin family and the emperor's love for their daughters, they must be chopped off with a knife.Before the two went out today, the whole family was more serious than sending them to the exam. Before three o'clock, Tianhe's family was in motion. He sent the person off in a proper manner, and the whole family did nothing but waited to hear the good news.

The two of them were also fighting for breath, knowing that they had a heavy responsibility on this trip, and they both showed their best state to deal with it.Both of them were clear about it, and they didn't think there was any shame in relying on their daughter-in-law and family. Not only were they taught by their family members, but they also secretly held their strength in their hearts: If they can really honor the Lord, they will definitely be a loving wife in the future. A good matchmaker.

The other is from a general family. Men from a general family are generally powerful and rough-looking. The men of this family are indeed so tall. Only this young man who is a single seedling grows up without knowing what to eat, or The advantages of the whole family have accumulated on him, and the whole family stands together to make it look like he is not his own.

Not only is his face handsome, but because of years of martial arts practice, his aura is quite different from that of a nobleman. Although he is wearing several layers of clothes, it clearly confirms the saying "you look thin when you wear clothes, and you have flesh when you take them off". Standing there, you look very bright It is easy to notice him at first sight.This family is aiming at the fact that they can have sons, thinking that Mrs. Lin has given birth to seven sons, and they don't have high demands, as long as they break the curse of single pass.This is the family of generals, if there is a war, if you accidentally wrap your body in horse leather, it will be broken, so you must find someone who can promote your own incense.

The three of them stood at the front, and the two aristocrats quietly glanced at the general on one side, and looked at each other unconsciously, with fear in their eyes, they all regarded this general as the biggest opponent this time, so be careful.

As for Nangong Yan, everyone thought he was here to join in the fun. I heard that this person likes to exchange knowledge with scholars. This time, the top wave of Daqi was gathered. It is normal for Nangongyan not to miss it.No one would have imagined that Nanjiang would marry a Daqi princess and give away half of the heir's blood. Anyway, it would be absolutely impossible for them to do so.

Therefore, the attention on Nangong Yan has been reduced a lot, and Nangong Yan, who has been forced all the way, finally has something to comfort him.It's a pity that watching the people around him suddenly become ambitious, Nangong Yan didn't realize that others didn't regard him as an opponent.

The "Choosing a Husband" competition will last for five days. The first two days will be divided into two games in the morning and afternoon. Bow horse riding and archery, [-] winners will be eliminated; on the fourth day, an impromptu question will be eliminated, and another [-] winners will be eliminated; on the fifth day, Daiyu will meet the top ten winners.

It is roughly estimated that there will be no less than a hundred people participating in the "Choosing a Husband" competition this time. When the emperor gives an order-the competition starts, the sons of each family hold the number plates assigned in advance, and follow the corresponding consuls into the assessment site.All the content of the assessment this time will not be signed, and will be uniquely identified by the randomly issued number plate, so as not to prevent some examiners from falsifying and playing tricks.

The first half of the first day was the assessment of "Book", which is actually poetry, and calligraphy was also assessed indirectly. They all said that the calligraphy is like a person, and part of the character can be glimpsed from the handwriting and strokes.There are four test centers in total, and each test center has different assessment content.I saw that there were people in the venue who had a plan in mind and came up with it at their fingertips; some people were scratching their heads and thinking hard about which of the dozens of poems prepared in advance was suitable;

In the afternoon is painting, the same four test centers, but there is no theme, and everyone can play as they please. Compared with the morning proposition, the form is much more free, and they can choose what they are good at. Many people are relieved.I am most afraid that those who are good at landscapes should be asked to draw figures, those who are good at figures should be asked to draw flowers and birds, and those who are good at freehand brushwork should be asked to do realism.

On the morning of the second day, Naiqin was not able to be assessed together as it was on the first day, but each of them was asked to play a short piece, and the three examiners scored on the spot, taking the average score.

In the afternoon of the second day, chess is played, and everyone draws lots to determine their opponents. The examiner inspects the performance of everyone in the field and scores them. The final result is not used as the only reference; The strength and weakness are distinct, forcing the opponent to throw away their armor and armor at the beginning of the game.

There are darkrooms set up in the four test centers, and Daiyu can enter the darkroom at will to observe the performance of everyone in the venue. After the poems and paintings of the previous day have been reviewed by the examiner, they are also presented to Daiyu for her to judge. included in the overall score.
