Your Highness insists that I marry him

"Mu Yong? Where did you go yesterday?

Mu Yong paused while putting on his shoes.Looking back, the sun hadn't risen yet, and in the dark and narrow corridor, he could probably recognize the figure as Tang Yuan, who was also a cook.He leaned against the wall in a daze, as if he was urinating at night.

Mu Yong looked away in disgust.In this poor land, the gap between the houses is full of dirt and rubbish of unknown shape even if people want to leave.Mu Yong didn't want to know what might be stuck on his shoes. "I didn't go anywhere. I still have a job to do, so I'm leaving first."

Yesterday he was afraid of being caught and punished by the steward, so he didn't dare to go back to the kitchen, so he found a path and went straight out of the arena.Naturally, he didn't meet anyone else, but the sad thing was that he didn't even receive the salary he had worked so hard for as a cook.In addition, all my hard work to be selected was in vain.Mu Yong felt that everything was going wrong for him, and he was so unlucky that he had no money in his hands.

He walked out of this dilapidated residential area with a dull head.As the surrounding buildings became more solid and beautiful, the ground under their feet gradually changed from mud to stone roads.Mu Yong got into a building made of polished white stone through the back door.Not far from the back door is the storage room full of sundries and wood. Following the only light, Mu Yong woke up the night watchman who was sleeping on his chair. I rummaged through the bunch of keys, and said, "Why did you come here, drink more. You are the most lazy."

Farting, Mu Yong gritted his teeth, but thinking of the empty purse, he still resisted not answering, nodded his head, took the key and a dim light, and strode inside.

Behind the door opened by the key is a small stone room, and the entire room is almost occupied by a strange skeleton that looks like a fish head.Mu Yong went in and illuminated the wall in front of the skeleton with a lamp. There was a groove on the ground in front of the fish mouth. If you followed the groove through the wall, you could probably see a big bath next door, but the bath is now empty.

There is nothing wrong with the placement of the fish mouth.Mu Yong put down the lamp.Start to operate the bone tool of this limpet.Private bathrooms are basically only available to the nobles.Most people in this city rely on public baths to enjoy the fun of bathing.His task is to fill the public bath with water before opening.

Mu Yong held the two polished transparent fish bones behind the fish head, and slowly input his spiritual power, the scales of the fish head lighted up slightly, and the fish spit out a juicy stream of water.When Mu Yong was using the bone vessel, his face was still a little happy, but when he glanced sideways at the thin water flow, his expression dimmed under the dim light.

The operation of Longwu Continent relies on spiritual power of various attributes.Bone tools are refined from the bones of various monsters, which can retain the innate abilities and attributes of monsters to a large extent.Linmu fish is a common monster with water attributes. Its natural technique is to spray water jets, and it is the most common bone tool for calling water.The jet of water launched by the Linmu fish is comparable to a big tree hugged by two people, and the jet is also extremely fast.But in Mu Yong's hands, even the water is no more than the thickness of his wrist.You can see the difference in talent.

People with spiritual talent are divided into four classes.Excellent, Excellent, Fair and Poor.People with better talent generally have more obvious talent attributes, and they can cast spells with their own strength. Ice, fire, water, and earth attributes are the most common, but there are many variants.The vast majority of the gifted poor are inferior.For example, Mu Yong.Because it is impossible to cast any spells by its own ability, there is basically no attribute for inferior talents.

This level of talent is one level of difference, but even if they are all low-level talents, they can be divided into good and bad, and Mu Yong's spiritual power output may not be able to do it among the low-level talents.Compared with slow output, some people can store more spiritual power in their bodies. Although it is not as useful as output in battle, it can sometimes be more sought-after in various logistical tasks.But after persisting for a short time, Mu Yong already felt strenuous.Thinking of the night watchman accusing him of being lazy, Mu Yong felt even more humiliated, but he would rather admit this kind of thing than explain that his talent is extremely poor.

Having not eaten breakfast and exhausted his spiritual energy, Mu Yong felt even colder.The bathing place usually needs to heat the water in the pool, which is too hot, but now the place where the fire is lit is not working, so it is very cold.He was hesitating whether to take a rest and fill in more water, so that others would say he was lazy, but another person had already opened the door of the stone chamber.The man looked like he was still asleep, and nodded to Mu Yong.

This is his successor.Even such low-end bone tools are far more expensive than low-level people like them. The owner of the bathing pool would rather find someone to get up in the middle of the night and start watering, spending more time than saving money to buy another bone tool.After rubbing his arms, Mu Yong was not in the mood to be aggressive, so he said hello and left.After dealing with it, he received one silver coin and forty copper coins from the night watchman.Equivalent to 140 copper coins, Mu Yong put it away carefully before leaving.At this time, the sky was just beginning to light up.

Taking advantage of the rising sun, Mu Yong went directly along the road towards the center of the city.The sky is getting brighter, and there are gradually hawkers who get up early and set up stalls on the roadside.All kinds of intriguing aromas came out of the steaming stall, and Mu Yong felt his stomach throbbing. He slowed down, his eyes wandered over various snacks, and finally he was caught by a hawker of fried meatballs. Hold on tight.Swallowing, Mu Yong reached into his clothes, pressed the hard silver coin, hesitated for a moment, and finally walked away with big strides.

In the imperial city at the foot of the palace, the largest building in the center of the city is Longwu Academy.Many children who have been tested to have spiritual power will travel thousands of miles from all corners of the Longwu Kingdom, seeking a chance to study in the Longwu Academy at the foot of the royal family, in order to change their lives and glorify their ancestors.

The largest building in the academy is dedicated to the art of bonecraft.The functions of bone tools are as comprehensive and profound as the varieties of monsters.Bonesmiths study the manufacture and use of bone tools, which is naturally the most popular industry.Side by side with the building of bone tool science belongs to the art of demon planting.Like monsters, spirits and monsters have their own attributes. Although there is no bone inner pill to use, they can be turned into pills, liquid medicines, and even poisons that are hard to defend against. Therefore, the monster planting technique is second only to bone tools .Behind these two buildings is the magnificent fighting arena.However, the method of systematically learning attacking martial arts is not available to ordinary people, let alone public lectures.The real unique knowledge and geniuses on the Longwu Continent are firmly in the hands of the nobles and royal families.

But that world is too far away for Mu Yong who is still hungry.He only had time to glance enviously at the majestic bone building building, then bypassed it, then passed through the quaint Lingzhi building, made many turns, and finally walked into the back of the two buildings, almost covered by shadows. The culinary art academy, the culinary art academy pays attention to how to cook the meat of spirit beasts, so as to preserve the spiritual power and taste to the greatest extent so that they can be eaten.Cooking ingredients do not require as much control and output of spiritual power as bone training tools or spiritual plants. The Culinary Academy has become a place for poorly talented apprentices. You can live comfortably.

But how many people who have traveled thousands of miles to come here can really be satisfied with not worrying about food and clothing.

Only half of the ordinary people are talented. After struggling day and night in poverty, how could Mu Yong never have the dream of changing his life, but he came to Longwu Academy, which gathers talents from all walks of life, and the harder he worked, the better he was. Climbing, but I can only see my insignificance more and more clearly.It's more cruel to have hope but disappear and never have hope and can't tell.

Fortunately, life has to go on, and now Mu Yong's mind is only occupied by the faint pain in his stomach.He walked towards the kitchen of the Culinary Academy in three steps in parallel.After all, there are a lot of kitchens and a lot of people. It is not difficult to find some leftover materials to make something to fill your stomach before the class starts, and no one pursues it. Mu Yong often uses this to save money for one or two meals.

As Mu Yong walked all the way, the sun had fully risen at this time, and it was approaching the start of the class. The closer he got to the college, the more apprentices around him gradually increased.The most eye-catching thing in front of you is a small group of pretty girls, laughing while walking.He was held in the middle by the girls like stars.It's Xu Tian...

It seemed that he felt Mu Yong's gaze.Xu Tian turned her head, she blinked her big bright eyes, and smiled at Mu Yong. "Brother Mu Yong...

Mu Yong could feel envious eyes from some boys around him, just because Xu Tian talked to him.I have to say that Xu Tian is beautiful.Natural attributes and appearance don't always correspond, but people with high talent often also look better, with more symmetrical faces and darker hair.

Xu Tian's brown hair and good looks make her not look like someone from the Culinary Academy. Even if she stands among those heaven's favored ones in the bone building building, she will not violate the harmony.But Mu Yong knew that this girl was from the same humble background as himself, and he met her on the way to the academy.Such a delicate little beauty wanted to go on the same journey, so Mu Yong naturally took care of her, and it was inevitable that she would be tempted to hear her call such a brother.But Xu Tian has never accepted his intention, nor did he refuse.At the beginning, Mu Yong would try his best to please him and respond to every request, but what he can give, even in this low-level culinary academy, seems very limited. Xu Tian gradually alienated him. In this academy, with those big brown eyes , right and left, my brother recognized more and more, of course Mu Yong could understand that Xu Tian looked innocent and cute, but in fact she was beautiful and self-aware, and she was up for grabs.

"Yesterday, Tian'er was so busy that she didn't even pay attention, did Brother Mu Yong enter the private kitchen?" Xu Tian didn't walk towards Mu Yong, but was still surrounded by her sisters, asking innocently.

"Of course he didn't." Before Mu Yong could answer, the sisters beside Xu Tian had already laughed. "Sister Tian'er, what are you talking to him. Let's go." "I saw him go to the kitchen to pick up leftovers to eat. How could a noble chef use such a person."

Xu Tian covered her mouth in bewilderment, but did not lower her volume. "Ah. I'm sorry, Brother Mu Yong. I don't know..."

Seeing the eyes of the people around him focus on him, Mu Yong felt as if his body was being pricked by needles. He didn't want to make a fool of himself, but his face burned uncontrollably, his lips moved again and again, and he could only utter one sentence. "Class is about to begin..."

"That's right, Tian'er, you're such a nice person, go away. Take a good seat." The female companions were too lazy to look at Mu Yong, and hurriedly urged.

"Brother Mu Yong, don't be angry with me." Xu Tian said with a light smile, and was surrounded by her sisters and walked towards the school building.

Mu Yong stood in place, gritted his teeth silently, he waited for the eyes on him to go away, and then moved his stiff legs again, no matter how much his stomach protested, Mu Yong didn't want to go to the kitchen again, he followed the crowd slowly After that, he quickly found an inconspicuous seat in the school and sat down.

Lectures are generally given by retired well-known chefs to impart experience and answer questions.The old lecturers on the stage always talk about their glorious past while talking, and it often takes a long time to get to the plot to solve the puzzles. When facing problems, they will cherish words like gold and disband early.Everyone naturally likes to sit closer, so that they can ask their own questions earlier.

Mu Yong didn't eat anything, and at first he felt it was difficult, but after he got hungry, it became bearable, and he started to listen to the class slowly.

"Has any of you seen Dragon Pill?" The old lecturer asked mysteriously, "I am lucky enough to have seen a high-level Dragon Pill."

Hearing the sound of inhalation around him was clearly audible, the lecturer couldn't help but feel complacent.Although gold and silver are also used on the Wulong Road, people with spiritual power still use bone coins more, and the real big transactions use the inner alchemy of monsters.Only monsters above level [-] will conceive an inner alchemy behind the Tianling Cap.Among the monsters, the most valiant and skilled in battle is the dragon, and the best inner alchemy is the dragon pill.

For these low-level apprentices, even a bone coin should be used sparingly.Naturally, you can't get in touch with the inner alchemy, let alone improve the level of dragon alchemy.

"That's right, that's a high-level fire dragon pill. Do you know what level of monster a high-level inner pill needs to be?" the old lecturer asked, but he didn't wait for the apprentices to answer. "Sixth rank. Even a warrior with superior talent may not necessarily have the power to fight. And the monster dragon is born with sixth rank. Dragon pills are all high rank, and it is hard to see outside the palace.

Even if you will never go to the battlefield in this life, everyone still knows this kind of common sense.However, he was still curious about this kind of Yaodan, which can only be seen by nobles, and even Mu Yong was attracted full attention.

"The inner alchemy is not as turbid and rough as other monster inner alchemy. The dragon alchemy is as smooth as jade, more like red colored glaze, almost transparent. But there is pure spiritual power flowing like flames in the middle. It is really a beauty. Magical treasure." The old lecturer paused and looked at the apprentice's expression proudly.It can be said that everyone's appetite was whetted, "When I was a chef, I was lucky enough to work in the palace to witness such a treasure. At that time, our queen was still a princess."

The apprentices couldn't help being in an uproar. Being able to serve the royal family personally is an opportunity for the nobles to fight for their heads. Everything in the palace is mysterious and unattainable to the common people.Everyone couldn't help guessing that the lecturer had something to do with it, or that he was simply fabricating the facts.

The old lecturer seemed very satisfied that he had finally thrown out the word "imperial palace", and continued talking on his own regardless of the apprentice's reaction. "I remember that one day the emperor was admiring the flowers with the empress in the back garden, and I was called by the emperor to reward me because of the exquisite and delicious imperial meal. The emperor was teaching the empress at that time, and asked her to try to input her energy into the Inside a used up dragon pill."

"Isn't this impossible?" Seeing that the old lecturer's words became more and more outrageous, some apprentices couldn't help questioning in a low voice.

"Of course it's impossible under normal circumstances. But you don't know the ability of the royal family's excellent talent." The old lecturer scowled. "Our queen is an excellent fire talent. It is possible to do things that cannot be done. But it is very difficult to do things against the sky. Even if our queen is a rare genius, it takes great effort. Most of the spiritual power output Between scattered and heaven and earth, there is no one in ten in Longdan. Naturally, the former emperor was teaching the empress the importance of obeying the laws of heaven and earth.

Mu Yong lowered his head and slowly drew a picture of Long Dan in his notes.Gradually absent-minded.If he could get a Fire Dragon Pill one day, would he be able to summon fire spiritual power with his bare hands in the world, and do whatever he wanted?Is it possible to learn the most mysterious bone tool like a medium talent?What should that feel like?As long as there is enough power, can't the laws of heaven and earth be broken?Unfortunately, the person who breaks the law will never be him.Mu Yong laughed at himself.He couldn't even get a bone coin.

Although the Culinary Academy has kitchen utensils and cooking bone utensils available, most bone utensils require bone coins to power them.A bone coin is worth two to five gold coins, and it is also made of the bones of monsters, which can preserve some of the spiritual power of monsters.It is equivalent to a month's income of many ordinary people, and any rare spirit beast meat is also expensive.These all depend on the students themselves.

Mu Yong subconsciously looked at Xu Tian. This woman was sitting next to a man with a strong upper body, but almost as tall as the petite Xu Tian, ​​trying her best to look like a small bird.This person's parents are natives of the imperial city, and they have a small business at home.The ones that can be given to Xu Tian between the fingers are probably higher than all his income.Mu Yong chuckled and moved his eyes indifferently.

The old lecturer boasted for a long time, leaving even less time for the questioning session.Mu Yong sat at the back this time, it seemed that it was not his turn, and his stomach hurt again, Mu Yong sighed, got up and left first, thinking about finishing his lunch.

As soon as Mu Yong left, the vice president of Longwu College rushed into the classroom and interrupted the lecturer hastily. "All the apprentices who helped cook in the fighting field last night, come with me.

"Why is this?" The lecturer couldn't help being very puzzled.The apprentices didn't know how to react, "This is a missing person order passed down from the palace! You can't afford to delay! Hurry up! Don't miss one.

The apprentices all stared wide-eyed, and the apprentices who were in the arena yesterday got up in a panic and followed them out.

Not far away, the dean was nodding and bowing to the two imperial soldiers. "You give me a word. This, but who offended which noble person above. We should be prepared for any punishment.

The two imperial soldiers looked at each other. To be honest, they were a little confused, but seeing the dean's sweating profusely, one of them spoke hesitantly. "It shouldn't be a matter of punishment."

At this time, the apprentices who had gathered together couldn't help talking in low voices.

"What do you think will happen..." Xu Tian said thoughtfully.

"Could it be that some son has taken a fancy to someone?" One of her female companions said jokingly.Then he laughed.

"It's not in the storybook." Xu Tian also smiled.The nobleman fell in love with the commoner girl at first sight.This is a badly written plot in the storybook, but no matter how popular fantasy is, it is nothing more than fantasy.

At this time, a middle-aged man with a big belly came running over from the other side, and he obviously also received instructions.If Mu Yong was here, he would be able to recognize that this was the steward who almost condemned him in front of the princess last night.

"Trouble manager Zhou, please recognize me." Seeing that the manager in charge of the arena arrived yesterday, the imperial soldier nodded towards the place where the apprentices were standing.

"It's easy to say..." Zhou Guanshi was also curious about what was going on.But the eyes looking for Mu Yong should not be neglected in the slightest.

But after looking for a long time, I couldn't find it.Steward Zhou hurriedly looked at the dean. "Dean, I'm afraid not everyone here."

"This..." The dean naturally didn't know, but he couldn't show it, so he cleared his throat. "Look around, is there anyone who was in the arena last night but not now?"

The apprentices looked around.Tang Yuan slapped his head suddenly and said. "Mu Yong..."

"Yes..." "It means that I didn't see him last night." "Did he come today?" Others also echoed a few words.

"Where is Mu Yong?" the dean asked hurriedly.

"He's here..." Tang Yuan said. "I'm going to find him?"

"A few more people to look for! Hurry up..." The dean put on a straight face.My heart was up and down again, it couldn't be that I stole something and ran away.He can't afford it if the higher-ups blame him.

At this time, Mu Yong was hesitating before various restaurants outside the college.There was a jerky seller in front of him, and he felt that he couldn't move when he smelled the meat, but the jerky was so small and expensive, and he couldn't get enough of it even with a small piece.Going further down, there is a noodle seller. The noodles can be regarded as handicrafts. A bowl is not small. The whole wheat noodles are soaked in the soup, and they are hot and soft, but they cost about twenty copper coins.Mu Yong swallowed his saliva, and finally went to a shop selling corn bread inside.These buns are made of the thickest bran flour, and they are gray, hard and rough.

Mu Yong walked in familiarly.I ordered a piece of steamed corn bread and a bowl of soup, and the total was only ten copper coins.The clerk collected the money, took the cornbread from the cabinet, and poured a bowl of soup from the gray cauldron, then turned around and handed it to Mu Yong.Mu Yong found a place to sit down, and hurriedly took a sip of soup.This soup is made casually, it feels like some leftovers are boiled in a pot of water, and the taste of the impure water itself is unappetizing.However, the living standard of the poor on Longwu mainland is not high, and cooking mostly stays at the stage of boiling.So Mu Yong only felt that the warm soup soothed his stomach, besides, he had to eat soup after ordering the steamed bun, after all, the hard steamed stuffed bun was very difficult to swallow.

Just as Mu Yong was devouring his lunch, Tang Yuan suddenly appeared from outside the store, seeing Mu Yong, his eyes lit up. "Hey! You are here!"

Mu Yong frowned: "Are you looking for me?"

"No, it's the dean, hey, it's not." Tang Yuan hurriedly told him about the matter. "Anyway, come with me."

Mu Yong had an intuition that it would not be a good thing, why did he look for him?Could it be the steward who said he would convict him?But the princess has already spoken, how dare he disobey it, and have to come to him after a day, no matter how you think about it, it won't happen.Or did something happen to that foolish prince?He didn't do anything.Mu Yong couldn't figure out what to do, and didn't want to go at all.But a tall man like Tang Yuan stood in front of him and said that the whole courtyard was waiting for him, so he had to cooperate.

Mu Yong lowered his head and took a sip of the soup, but he couldn't think of a reason to refuse.I had no choice but to kick half of the cornbone into my clothes, and then ran back to the Culinary Academy with Tang Yuan.

"it's him!

Just came here, before Mu Yong saw the situation clearly.Then I heard the steward Zhou yelled and pointed his finger at him.

For a moment, everyone looked at him, and Mu Yong felt his hairs stand on end.That week, the steward smiled at him. He didn't know what he had inquired about, but his attitude towards him changed, "I didn't speak well yesterday, so don't worry about it, little brother."

Before Mu Yong could react, two tall men in armor also walked towards him with big strides. "That is, you met Her Royal Highness yesterday?"

Mu Yong swallowed. "Yes, it's small."

"Fine. Come with us."

"Master Bing, where are you going?" Mu Yong hastily asked cautiously the kinder emperor soldier.

The imperial soldier looked at him strangely, pointing to the tallest palace on Tianbian Mountain. "The palace..."
