Palace Full of Delicacies

Chapter 21 Checking

Hearing the words, the two who were biting happily stiffened for a moment. An Hongche stretched out his claws and pulled the silk cord not far away, and the bell outside the door rang immediately, which meant that he agreed to see him.Just as he was about to transform back, his hind paw was suddenly bitten by his younger brother, His Majesty the Emperor was furious and dared to sneak attack!Resolutely fighting back, the two kittens fought into a ball again, completely ignoring the emperor uncles who were still waiting outside the door.

Therefore, when the two princes pushed open the door of the inner hall of the bedroom, they saw two balls of hair that were crowded together, fell from the cushion to the ground, struggled to climb back to the cushion, and continued to fight.

King Su: "..."

King Ling: "..."

The chief eunuch, Wang Fuhai, sighed in his heart, bowed to the two princes in embarrassment, and retreated.

King Su's eyes widened, staring at the two fur balls: "Ahem..."

Ling Wang rubbed his hands, took half a step back, and rushed towards the cushion like an arrow: "Uncle Seventeen is here!"

A big black and yellow cat jumped onto the cushion, threw the two little furballs to the ground, and rubbed them vigorously in its arms.The golden kitten was very dissatisfied, and shook its tail. A pinch of white fluff at the tip of the tail shone slightly. It threw the big cat away, jumped up, and fiercely pounced on it, biting the big cat's ear.

The little chubby cat rolled to the side, and seeing that his brother had gained the upper hand, he excitedly followed and bit the other ear.

"Oh, Brother Thirteen, help!" the big cat kicked its four paws and called.

Seeing his younger brother being repaired by his nephew, cracks appeared on Su Wang's resolute and serious face, and he felt itchy hands, and finally couldn't help turning into a big cat to join the battle group.

"Meow--"

"Brother Thirteen, you're crushing my beard!"

……

The re-election was scheduled to begin in the afternoon, and the royal family members had already arrived, but the two princes were delayed.

"The two princes are such a big show." Su Ying stood behind the rockery and said while looking around

The re-election takes place in the Imperial Garden, where the males are selected by the royal family and the females are selected by the Queen Mother.The beautiful women stood in a rockery, which formed an embrace, surrounded by a small pavilion in the middle, surrounded by mountains and mountains, and it was extremely exquisitely built.You can see the outside from the inside, but you can't see the inside from the outside.

At this moment, the queen mother did not come, and the beautiful girls surrounded the rockery and looked towards the man curiously. Su Ying saw that the Changchun Hou family lady next to her was a little impatient and dared not complain about the queen mother, so she complained about the two princes.

Miss Changchun Hou glanced at Su Ying who was smiling flatteringly: "What do you know, ten clansmen are not worth a prince."

Su Ying smiled embarrassingly, and took the round fan from Miss Changchun Hou to fan her.Su Ying had a pretty good life for the past two days because she fell in love with the eldest daughter of the Hou family in Changchun.She felt that this young lady would definitely be chosen to become a noble concubine. Not only was she beautiful, but she was also very well informed. When she followed her into the palace, she would have a backer, so she would naturally serve her more attentively.

"I heard that your cousin fell in love with Duke Lu's son," Miss Changchun Hou said with a sneer, "Your members of the Su family are really virtuous."

Su Ying broke out in a cold sweat when she heard this, and secretly scolded Su Yujing for making trouble for him.This Changchun Hou family always thought that her elder brother was better than Duke Lu's son, so she always compared the two of them together, and asked about the man's situation every day, and when she heard that everyone was more in favor of Duke Lu's son, she would be so angry that she twisted her handkerchief.

"He is just a fish seller, and he will definitely make a fool of himself in a while." Su Ying said in a panic.

"Oh? A fish seller?" Miss Changchun Hou giggled, "Xungui still has a fish seller?"

"Everyone is going to show off their arts and martial arts later, what is he going to do?" Hearing this, other beautiful girls around him also came up to join in the fun.

"Then do you know how to sell fish?" Someone laughed at Su Ying.

"He's just the concubine of my second uncle's family, and has nothing to do with me." Su Ying blushed, as if she was a concubine, and completely forgot that the suit she wore when entering the palace was paid for by Su Yu For sale.

Just as they were talking, the two long-awaited princes finally arrived.

The royal family and the two princes each have a booklet in which each candidate's name, family background, and primary election situation are written. After one person's performance, they can tick under their names.The re-selection is divided into four categories: "lower, middle, upper, and upper-upper". Only when more than half of the "upper" evaluations are obtained, can the re-selection be passed and enter the final selection.

This time the honorable and civil servants were no longer separated, and the order of performances was determined by drawing lots. Su Yu drew a very low lottery and stood silently aside, quietly looking at the two solemn-looking princes, thinking to himself that Prince Zhao Why didn't His Highness come? Didn't that guy keep clamoring to vote for him?

The royal family members sat in a circle, and the two princes sat in the middle. Eunuch Yang held a piece of yellow silk and sang the names of the people who appeared one by one.

Most of the noble children perform martial arts.

The prince of Lu Guogong used a set of marksmanship, a silver spear seemed to come alive in his hands, as graceful as a frightened bird, as graceful as a dragon swimming.

"Good! You are worthy of being a general!" King Su clapped his hands and applauded, and the clans also praised him.

There are even more performances by the children of civil servants, including poems and songs, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and a few people performing pairs and poetry competitions together, and some even made an argument on the spot.

The clans lamented that talented people have emerged from generation to generation. His Royal Highness King Su is more interested in martial arts, while King Ling is lethargic.

Su Yu looked at it for a while, and he was even more sure that the purpose of this general election was not to choose a concubine at all, but to show his face in order to seek official career.Just imagine how terrible it would be for the emperor to marry a concubine who dances with spears every day, or who opens her mouth to talk about the national economy and the people's livelihood!

"Next, Su Yu." Eunuch Yang's sharp voice called Su Yu back from the wandering mind.

The little eunuch who was in charge of moving the props set up a table in the middle of the empty space. Everyone thought that Su Yu was going to perform painting; who knew that the little eunuch placed a few knives on the table, and everyone guessed that it was for performing sculpture; Put the cutting board, everyone...

Su Yu wiped the cold sweat from his brow, stood behind the table under great pressure, and silently fished out a lively fish from the wooden basin.

Su Yu really knows none of piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, sword, gun, sword and halberd!After thinking about it, I didn't realize that I have any special skills. The only thing I can use to perform is... the ability to kill fish...

"Su Yu, the presenter is... Killing Fish." Eunuch Yang's shrill voice was heard far away, and the entire imperial garden was silent for a moment.

"Pfft—" The tea that King Ling had just drank into his mouth suddenly spewed out, splashing King Su's face.

King Su raised his hand to wipe off the water droplets on his face, and slapped King Ling on the back of the head expressionlessly.

There were bursts of suppressed laughter from the crowd, Su Yu bit the bullet and picked up a knife.

Not far away, a golden kitten ran up the rockery lightly, squatting at the highest point, followed by a little fat yellow and white cat.Because the little chubby cat had short legs, it took a couple of strokes before it climbed up.

Taking a deep breath, Su Yu closed his eyes, the matter has come to this point, and it must continue.Ignore everyone's reaction and focus on the fish in your hand.

Sword skill focuses on wrist strength, just like manipulating a musical instrument.Some people use knives, which seem complicated and extremely fancy, but in fact it is a waste of energy, and the cuts are not very fine.The real masters return to the basics, and by adjusting the angle of the wrist, they can swing the knife easily and freely, and sometimes they can't even see the movement of the hand at all.

This is the case with Su Yu's fish killing skills.

But since it is a performance, it must be made to look good.In his previous life, Su Yu also participated in a food competition. In order to gain attention, he specially practiced some beautiful flower knives, which can not only perform, but also kill clean fish.

Opening up the belly, snapping the cheeks and removing the scales, flowing freely, without hindrance, a small knife is like a living thing in his hand, the white and slender fingers move slightly, the knife flips flexibly between the fingers, like a small silver fish.

Putting the knife away, Su Yu put the killed fish on the table, it looked like a whole fish.He pinched the tail of the fish with two fingers, shook it slightly, and pulled it out instantly. The whole fish bone and tail were pulled out, but the fish body was still intact!

"Meow!" The little fat cat cried out in surprise.

The golden kitten patted his younger brother's paw without looking back.

Su Yu heard the meowing of the cat, looked up and saw the golden kitten squatting high, and couldn't help smiling.Raise your hand and throw the fish meat into the bucket filled with water. The white and tender fish meat will be separated instantly, each piece is shaped like a petal, but the roots are connected, just like a peony in full bloom.

"Wonderful!" Ling Wang exclaimed, with this technique, he no longer has to worry about getting fishbone!He couldn't help but poke Thirteenth Brother beside him with his elbow.

Su Wang nodded slightly, this is indeed a rare talent!

Su Yu looked at the twitching expressions of the clan members, and wiped off his sweat. He worked so hard, he shouldn't be offended for his improper attitude, and of course it's even more impossible to be selected to advance.
