Chapter 49: My Years as a Maid 10
The number one in the martial arts exam is called Xue Yang, he is twenty years old this year and was adopted at the age of three.
The third place winner is Tang Zhiyuan, 18 years old this year. He was adopted when he was two years old.
There were only forty-seven men who applied for the exam, ten of whom were sent by Zhao Yunru, and the remaining thirty-seven were all sons of officials.
No men from poor families or common people came to participate.
All ten people sent by Zhao Yunru passed the exam.
Among the sons of officials, three were on the list for the military examination and five were on the list for the civil examination.
It’s not much, but it’s a good start.
Zhao Yunru also specially summoned these men who passed the exam, praised them, and asked them to work hard to contribute to the Qiongyu Kingdom.
These men were greatly encouraged, especially the eight officials' sons.
They didn't expect that His Majesty was so approachable and so heroic and majestic.
There were two people who fell in love with Zhao Yunru at first sight and fantasized about marrying her.
One was Tang Yan, the son of General Tang, who was the second place in the military examination; the other was Meng Xianjin, the son of the Minister of Revenue, who was the second place in the literary examination.
Zhao Yunru had no idea that she had attracted two peach blossoms, and that these two peach blossoms would entangle her for the rest of her life.
After the selection of talents was completed, the ministers in the court brought up the matter of taking beauties into the harem.
Zhao Yunru kept delaying. As long as she could avoid being elected, she was not in a hurry.
Yun Chu was a little anxious. His Majesty had never married and her mission was nowhere in sight.
Yun Chu was about to give some advice when the envoy from the Ming Kingdom sent an invitation.
It turned out that the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty was celebrating his 60th birthday in October, and he invited leaders of various countries to attend his birthday banquet.
In this world, those who can live to fifty are considered quite good, and sixty is considered a long life.
Zhao Yunru immediately replied to the envoy that she would definitely attend.
She had another excuse to postpone marrying.
At the beginning of July, Zhao Yunru set off for the Ming Kingdom. As for the Qiongyu Kingdom, it was temporarily handed over to the joint supervision of the Prime Minister and the Grand Marshal.
Also traveling with them was the Lotus Kingdom's empress Yuchi Ying. To get to the Ming Kingdom, they had to pass through the Qiongyu Kingdom and several small countries.
So Yuchi Ying sent someone to invite Zhao Yunru to go to the Ming Kingdom together.
Zhao Yunru also agreed and went with them to make it more lively.
Four months later, Zhao Yunru and his team finally arrived in the Ming Kingdom.
The Ming Kingdom has already prepared separate courtyards, and the separate courtyards of the Qiong Yu Kingdom, the Lian Hua Kingdom, and the Huan Meng Kingdom are adjacent to each other.
"Come on, aunt, let's go out for a walk." It was Zhao Yunru's first time to be an envoy to another country, a country where men are superior. She was very curious.
Zhao Yunru and Yun Chu sneaked out together.
Zhao Yunru walked on the street, looking around curiously.
As expected of a male-dominated country, there are so many men coming and going. However, she feels that the men of Ming Country are not as good-looking as the men of Qiong Yu Country.
Zhao Yunru was not interested in jewelry or clothes. She went directly to the grain store to see the types of grain in the Ming Dynasty.
After going to several grain stores, Zhao Yunru bought several kinds of seeds that were not available in Qiongyu Country.
After that, she visited other places. After visiting, Zhao Yunru was a little disappointed. The Ming Dynasty was not as good as she had imagined.
"This Ming Dynasty, this is how it feels." Zhao Yunru complained to Yun Chu in a low voice.
"Miss, there are still many things worth learning from Ming Country."
"Where?"
"Miss, please pay attention to the horse market, vegetable market and other places. Corresponding places have been planned and are provided free of charge to the people."
“Also, the drainage of the street is designed very reasonably.”
Yun Chu counted the areas that can be learned from.
"Aunt, thank you for your advice." It turned out that she still had a one-sided view.
I found a restaurant to eat, and just after taking a few bites, a fight broke out next door.
As the fight went on, Yun Chu and the others also suffered.
The door was pushed open and the table overturned.
Yun Chu protected Zhao Yunru and stood aside to watch the fun.
After a while, the fight was not over yet and more and more people came.
"Miss, let's leave first." Yun Chu felt something was wrong. She had strong internal strength and heard that the fight in the next box was because of a prostitute.
Both groups of people have powerful backers and many lackeys. She heard someone instigating a commotion, so she started fighting.
But this feels like it's going to cause a death.
It feels like there is a conspiracy.
When Yun Chu was about to take Zhao Yunru downstairs, he saw a very inconspicuous man take out a dagger and stab the man in brocade robe.
Yun Chu stretched out his palm, and with his powerful internal force, he directly knocked the person holding the dagger away.
"Miss, wait for me for a moment."
Sure enough, in just a moment, Yun Chu knocked down both groups of people who were fighting.
He looked around with a stern face and said, "That's enough! Is a woman worthy of your jealousy and fighting to the death?"
"What are you looking at? Do you want to get beaten?" Yun Chu glared at him.
Changsun Jingzuo and Liang Youzhi looked at each other and exchanged glances.
Changsun Jingzuo: Who is this, your elder?
Liang Youzhi: I don’t know him. Is he someone you know?
Changsun Jingzuo: Why does this man want to teach us a lesson? We should listen to his teachings obediently.
Liang Youzhi: Can you beat this tigress?
Zhangsun Jingzuo: No.
Liang Youzhi: Then you can only listen to the instructions.
"Get up and compensate the store for the damaged items." Yun Chu instructed.
Zhangsun Jingzuo and Liang Youzhi paid the money as compensation.
"This man wants to assassinate you. Interrogate him carefully." Yun Chu threw the unconscious assassin to Changsun Jingzuo.
"Also, you should investigate the lackeys around you. I don't know what they are thinking by fanning the flames."
"You can't even have a meal in peace, miss, let's go."
"Okay, aunt." Zhao Yunru could see that Yun Chu was a little angry, so she didn't dare to say anything more and followed her back obediently.
As soon as Yun Chuyi left, Changsun Jingzuo and Liang Youzhi suddenly realized that something was indeed wrong.
Then the two of them figured out what was causing them to quarrel and even cause death.
The Emperor's birthday is approaching. If we make a fuss now, wouldn't it be a disgrace to the Ming Dynasty?
Moreover, it was thrown in front of the monarchs of other countries. This was an attempt to destroy the Changsun family and the Liang family.
Changsun Jingzuo and Liang Youzhi quickly left with their men.
After returning home, Changsun Jingzuo and Liang Youzhi informed their family of what had happened today.
Both of them were beaten with a stick and put under house arrest by their families.
When the two returned to the villa, Zhao Yunru was talked about by the ministers who accompanied him.
"Oh, with my aunt here, there can be no danger."
The ministers all looked at Yun Chu. Yun Chu did not feel guilty at all and replied confidently: "I took His Majesty out. We went to investigate the people's livelihood in Ming."
"Your Majesty has learned a lot today. Please tell the ministers what you have learned today."
Zhao Yunru: “…”
Although he was speechless, Zhao Yunru still told the ministers what he had seen and learned today.
The ministers were very pleased after hearing this.
I didn't expect that His Majesty was not going out for fun.
With such a Majesty, they believe that the Qiongyu Kingdom will surely make further progress under the leadership of His Majesty.
After dealing with the ministers, Zhao Yunru returned to his room to rest.
