The First Tyrant of Daxia

When it was late at night and everyone was asleep, Pei Yaoye couldn't fall asleep.

She stared at the ceiling with her beautiful eyes wide open, trying to move away from Qin Yun, but she found that he was hugging her tightly and she couldn't break free.

She frowned slightly, but had to give up, lest she wake Qin Yun up and prevent the dog emperor from getting horny again and not being able to get out of bed tomorrow.

Looking at Qin Yun's angular profile, she fell silent.

I actually have a little bit of twisted love, or admiration for this enemy in front of me whom I hate so much.

Pei Yao was in pain, with tears welling up from the corners of her eyes.

Finally, she bit her red lips and suppressed those inappropriate emotions.

Sleepless all night.

The next day, Qin Yun woke up.

Pei Yao made a decision and wanted to go to Yingcheng to see his cousin.

Without saying a word, Qin Yun immediately ordered He Xiu to lead three thousand armored soldiers to escort Pei Yao to the camp.

When getting on the carriage, Pei Yao, wearing a veil, walked slowly and gracefully.

"and many more."

Qin Yun suddenly called her, strode forward, and quickly covered her delicate body with his dragon robe.

"The wind in the camp is strong and the journey is long. Don't catch a cold. I will wait for you to come back in the imperial capital."

The tone was indifferent, without any flattery, as if they were a couple who had been married for many years.

Pei Yao had a complicated look in his eyes. He nodded slightly, then bowed and got on the carriage and left.

Qin Yun watched the convoy leave.

"Your Majesty, Lord Qi, the Minister of Justice, requests to see you, and he has brought a few old gentlemen from outside the palace." Eunuch Xi said.

Qin Yun raised his eyebrows: "This old guy, is he so efficient this time?"

"Let's go, take him to the imperial study."

Royal study room.

Qi Yong looked like he hadn't slept all night. His old face was filled with fatigue and all the wrinkles were squeezed together.

"Your Majesty, I have brought it here as you ordered. I can guarantee that no information has been leaked."

Qin Yun glanced at the three old gentlemen who were kneeling on the ground in fear and trepidation, nodded, and then asked Eunuch Xi to give Qi Yong a seat.

"Don't be afraid, you three. I'm not a man-eating monster. I asked you to come in this time because I need your help."

An old gentleman, who had few teeth left, excitedly bowed and said, "Your Majesty, you are too kind. It is an honor for scholars like us to work for the emperor."

Qin Yun didn't say anything more. He took out the note and handed it to the three people personally.

"I want you to copy the exact same font as above."

"Also, keep this note confidential."

"After the task is completed, I will give you a stack of books from the Imperial Study!"

Upon hearing this, a green light instantly flashed in the eyes of the three old gentlemen!

They have all been reading all their lives and are only interested in books. To receive the books bestowed by Your Majesty is enough to make them willing to go without food for three days and three nights!

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"We will not fail in our mission."

The three of them knelt down and simply glanced at the note, then they felt it was not difficult.

Qin Yun smiled with satisfaction. These three old men were all private school teachers or calligraphy masters in the imperial capital. It should not be difficult for them to copy the note 90% accurately.

"Go, take the three gentlemen downstairs, find an empty room, prepare the writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone, and serve them well."

"Yes!"

Not long after, Qin Yun went to find the Minister of War Zhao Heng to ask about the "Military Examination".

"Your Majesty, the martial arts examination has been announced to the world a few days ago, and the imperial capital government has already received thousands of applications."

"Adding the list submitted by various states, the number of names exceeds 10,000."

"Right now, the entire Ministry of War is busy screening the list and eliminating some of the good and bad people. Then Your Majesty will set a date to start the martial arts examination." Zhao Heng said as he knelt on the ground.

Qin Yun nodded, tapped his fingers on the table, and suddenly asked: "Among these tens of thousands of people, how many are from aristocratic families, royal relatives and nobles?"

Zhao Heng looked up at him and said hesitantly, "Most of them are nobles, but there are also scholars from poor families."

Qin Yun frowned, looking a little unhappy: "The martial arts champion I want to choose doesn't care about background or identity, don't you know that?"

"His Majesty!"

Zhao Heng knelt down in fear and explained, "There are thirteen routes in Daxia, and the prefectures along the way are surrounded by high mountains and long rivers. In some places, even the news of the martial arts examination cannot be passed on."

"In addition, many poor children do not choose to come to the imperial capital because they do not have the money for the journey..."

"Moreover, I have been carefully screening recently and found that many of the poor students who came to participate in the military examination were mostly rough people who knew nothing about military tactics and commanding troops."

"Really..." Zhao Heng looked at Qin Yun tentatively: "It's really hard to choose!"

Hearing this, Qin Yun sighed.

In the ancient environment, achieving fair selection for the whole world seemed to be harder than climbing to the sky.

"How about this."

"Pass on my order. In addition to the top champion, there will also be one runner-up and one third champion in this martial arts examination. In addition, 20 outstanding young men will be selected and given important positions in the army, and will be awarded the title of seventh-rank lieutenant."

"This way, there will be more places, which may arouse people's desire to participate."

Zhao Heng nodded: "Yes, Your Majesty!"

Qin Yun narrowed his eyes and continued, "When reviewing the list, pay special attention to whether the family background is clean, especially to prevent people with ulterior motives from sneaking in. Do you understand?"

Zhao Heng's face turned stern, and he immediately said, "Yes, Your Majesty, I understand."

"Well, let's temporarily set the time in August. Your Ministry of War will be responsible for the first two rounds of review, and I will personally review the final round." Qin Yun said.

Zhao Heng nodded again: "Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Go."

Qin Yun waved his hand and concentrated on reading the memorial.

Zhao Heng retreated quietly, and the only people left in the entire imperial study were some palace maids fanning and Eunuch Xi.

Qin Yun picked up a stack of scrolls and read them with great interest.

Not long ago, when he went to court, Wei Zheng took the lead in requesting him to take concubines, fill the harem, and give birth to princes to prepare for the continuation of Daxia, and he agreed.

Unexpectedly, a list and this scroll were submitted in such a short time.

The painting depicts portraits of beauties from all over the world using extremely superb painting skills.

Qin Yun couldn't let go of the first scroll.

Her face is delicate and her figure is like a willow, which is lifelike in the painting, giving people the feeling of being charming with just one glance and a smile.

The woman's ancestral home, age, and basic information were all filled in clearly.

He muttered to himself: "Fuck, the emperor's selection of concubines is too cool, just like when I went to a nightclub to select beauties in my previous life. No... No, compared to these innocent classical beauties, those women in my previous life were nothing but grass!"

He observed them one by one. Some of the beauties in the scrolls were enough to make Qin Yun salivate!

Some have long legs, some are beautiful, some are cool and elegant, and some have toes that can’t be seen when they look down...all kinds of them!

When his eyes fell on the last scroll, he was completely shocked!

This woman obviously outshines all the beauties in the previous paintings, and they are not even on the same level!

Her eyebrows are like distant mountains, her eyes are like autumn waves, and on her extremely beautiful face, there is a special charm that makes people remember it for a lifetime after just one look!

Her hair was tied up slightly and her clothes were whiter than snow. She was so simple that she didn't even wear rouge. But she was naturally beautiful and her skin was as smooth as a baby's!

She was holding a sword in her hand, which added a touch of heroism to her feminine beauty!

The painting seemed to come alive.

"Who is this woman?!" Qin Yun clutched the scroll tightly, his eyes filled with amazement, and he could not hide his excitement when he spoke!

He was moved and wanted to bring this woman back home even if he wanted!

Hearing the voice, Old Feng subconsciously raised his head and looked over. When his eyes saw the beauty in the scroll in Qin Yun's hand, even his expression quickly became strange.

Your Majesty, why do you like her?
