Chapter 113: The Third Prince

"Starting today for 3 consecutive days, there is a grand event in Lianshan City, are you interested in shopping together?"

"Extravaganza? What kind of event? ”

Listening to Ying Xiaoxiao talk about the event, the faces of the three of them were a little unnatural, and they remembered the party of 'Qing Yaju' when they first arrived in Lianshan City.

"What do you think? The face is so strange, this grand event is a grand event organized spontaneously by the people of Lianshan City in order to commemorate and celebrate the big day of Lianshan City's withdrawal from the town and the construction of the city, there are various performances in the streets and alleys, various competitions, and all kinds of delicious food, which is very lively. ”

Finding that the faces of the few people in front of her were a little abnormal, as if they were not interested, Ying Xiaoxiao felt a little strange.

"Oh, I see. Okay, I like to be lively the most, let's call Wu Porcelain and them together, and there are many people who are lively together. ”

After hearing what this event was about, it was not what they imagined, and the three of them secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and Han Luojiang immediately thought of calling Wu Ci and them too.

"No need, Yi Xiao has already gone to look for them before coming, we have made an appointment to meet at the gate of the academy, and it is estimated that they are almost waiting for us there now. If nothing else, let's go. ”

Ying Xiaoxiao didn't ask them about the difference in their faces, and took the lead in walking towards the gate of the academy.

One of the benefits of becoming an elite student of the academy is that you do not need to apply to the academy, and you can enter and leave the academy freely for a short period of 7 days with a little registration.

Wu Ci and them met at the gate of the college, and the group walked out of the academy and came to the downtown of Lianshan City. At this moment, the streets and alleys of Lianshan City are full of noise, gongs and drums, cheers, shouts, applause, mixed together, full of festive atmosphere.

Ying Xiaoxiao, who helped her family and the Eagle Flying Business Alliance to tide over the crisis, completely let go of the burden in her heart at this time, and turned into a pair of innocent and lively beautiful girls with Yan Yixiao, flying like butterflies in the most lively place in Lianshan City. On the street, all kinds of livestock items made of straw and cloth to symbolize the New Year of Zhaofeng Rui were waved in the hands of the procession members and passed through the streets and alleys; The images of the gods who guarded their lives and well-being imagined by all kinds of people danced under the impetus of their play; The cheers resounded through the streets and alleys of Lianshan City.

"Good! One more! ”

The bursts of cheers that came out of the dense crowd in front attracted the two beauties who were in high spirits. If you take a closer look, it turns out to be a popular game among the people: guessing lantern riddles. I saw a personable, handsome-looking, full of heaven, eyes blazing, occasionally flashing a glimmer of wisdom, a hand-cranked folding fan, a young man in a brocade robe, was smiling at the person who made the riddle, waiting for him to come out of the riddle, and on the table in front of him there were already several prizes won by guessing the riddle.

"This little brother is really amazing, he has already guessed so many lantern riddles. Okay, I'll come up with another one now, please guess. "It was an old man who came out of the riddle, and once again took out a lantern riddle that had been prepared and hung it out for everyone to guess.

There is a word in the world, and it took half a month to write it (type)

"What's that? It takes half a month to write, how can there be such a difficult word in the world. ”

As soon as the lantern riddle hung out, seeing the lantern riddle that came out, Wu Ci thought for a long time and didn't come up with anything, muttering to himself on the side.

"It's terrible to be uneducated! There must not be a single word that takes half a month to write. It's just that you don't guess what the word is. ”

Han Luojiang happened to be standing next to Wu Ci, and when he heard him say this, he immediately scolded him.

"Did you guess that?"

"Just kidding! I'm so intellectual, that's for sure, no! ”

There is not a moment when these people get together.

"Look at the costumes of a few people, it should be the students of Jiuxiao Academy, right? I am Yue Mingkong, the third prince of the Yuemeng Dynasty, who has just arrived in Lianshan City, and I hope to be fortunate enough to get acquainted with you. ”

When the handsome young man saw Han Yu and them, he quickly walked in front of them and enthusiastically introduced himself.

"Prince? A rich and noble family. Why don't you stay in the royal capital to live, how can you come to a remote and backward place like Lianshan City? ”

Wu Ci, who was still muttering on the side, heard that the handsome young man in front of him was a prince, and shook out a question at an inopportune time.

"Huh...... Ladies and gentlemen, why don't we find a place to sit down and have a meal and talk? The third prince Yueming's clear eyes looked at everyone.

"Okay. It just so happens that my stomach is also a little hungry, and there are rich people who invite him to dinner, how can he shirk it. Haha......" Wu Ci glanced at Han Yu out of the corner of his eyes, and saw that he nodded slightly without a trace, and his true performance was normal.

"Good. Wait a moment, though. ”

Turning back to the old man who made the riddle, he said: "Old man, the answer to the riddle of this riddle you came up with, if I didn't guess wrong, it is the word 'fat', right?" ”

"Haha...... Good. Young man, awesome. You guessed it, it's the word 'fat'. The old man was very happy, and also admired this knowledgeable young man, driven by the third prince, the old man's lantern riddle induced more people to participate in the quiz, and the atmosphere became more and more high.

I found a restaurant at random and asked for a private room. It didn't take long for a table of sumptuous dishes to fill the table. The division of labor in this group is very clear, Xia Jian, Bai Shi, and Han Luojiang are only responsible for eating; The two beauties are in charge of eating and listening; Wu Ci, Han Yu and Han Linfeng are responsible for the laborious work of talking. In this situation, Yue Mingkong felt a little funny and a little envious: these people are very interesting, and they all have full-time jobs! And very united.

From the conversation, it was learned that Yue Mingkong, as the third prince of the Yuemeng Dynasty, was also one of the successors to the throne, and his biggest competitors were the eldest prince Yue Mingshi and the sixth prince's younger brother Yue Mingyu. Lianshan City just became the fief of the third prince a year ago, and he came here not only because he wanted to see the atmosphere of the celebration here, but also because he wanted to understand the specific situation of the Dark Abyss, and then he wanted to find some talents who could help him in the fiefdom of Lianshan City.

Because the successors of the Yuemeng Dynasty will divide the land of the dynasty into feudal territories, and judge who can better inherit the throne by managing the fiefs under their jurisdiction, checking their ability to govern, selecting talents, etc., and making meritorious achievements.

The ancestors of the Yuemeng Dynasty were also an ordinary family when they were young, and when they practiced martial arts and walked the rivers and lakes, they saw a lot of deception and oppression, power exploitation, and did not treat ordinary people as people, and they were framed by the powerful many times, so they united a group of like-minded people to improve this situation, and later after a lot of hardships, they finally established the Yuemeng Dynasty, and tried their best to protect the people living in the dynasty from being oppressed like slaves, and could live normally and comfortably. This concept was endorsed and supported by the broad masses of the people of the dynasty, and the power of the dynasty grew stronger day by day.

Up to now, this concept has been passed on to the current Yuemeng King: the generation of the moon light source has been passed down for 5 generations in the Yuemeng Dynasty and has been upheld. Therefore, although the magnates of the dynasty will be a little arrogant, they will rarely be arrogant and out of line.

However, the establishment of the Yuemeng Dynasty encroached on the interests of the other two dynasties that had been established in the Huangxiao Domain for thousands of years: the Hongyuan Dynasty and the Jinxia Dynasty. Originally, the two dynasties could equally share the various resources obtained in the Wasted Night Domain, but now they can only get one-third, and sometimes they may not even reach it. As a result, there were frequent border clashes between the two sides, and even dynastic wars, so brutal wars that a large number of men and monks died on the frontier every year.

The Yuemeng Dynasty was founded for a short time, the national strength was relatively weak, and every time there was a dynastic war, it was at a disadvantage, and the casualties were huge, all of which relied on the soldiers to sacrifice themselves for the country, and the spirit of not fearing death held the defeat again and again, and stubbornly resisted the invasion of a strong enemy.

This is also the most troublesome thing for every generation of kings!

The four forbidden areas of the Desolate Night Domain, the Soul Splitting Ice Sea is located in the territory of the Hongyuan Dynasty; The Empty Valley is located in the territory of the Jinxia Dynasty; And the dark abyss is in the border wasteland boundary of the Yuemeng Dynasty, not too far from Lianshan City, and it can be regarded as a fief under the jurisdiction of Yuemingkong. The Brute Mountain Range is surrounded by three major dynasties in the middle.
