You were taken hostage, why pursue the Enemy's Empress?
Chapter 58 – The imperial examination system! Zhao Ning's gender was scared into changing!

"A virtuous wife sends her husband on a journey, only to fulfill her husband's ambitions.

Although the story is somewhat cliché, it still conforms to people's yearning for beautiful emotions and is quite consistent with the content of the folk song. Coupled with the novel form of drama, it allows people to immerse themselves in the story even more.

There is no news of Chen Shimei, which makes the audience somewhat anxious. Could he have encountered an accident?

Then, the development of the story becomes even more heart-wrenching.

Chen Shimei, who was recommended to the capital, not only did not fulfill his promise, but also climbed up to the powerful, and married the prime minister's daughter.

On the day of their wedding, Qin Xianglian could only sing a song called "Tanchuang" as a new singer in the identity of a song girl. The melancholic melody and mournful lyrics moved countless people.

After the song ended, the audience whispered to each other.

"I heard that Ying Wuji used a song to impress Miss Hua Chao. Could it be this one?"

"I heard that the lyrics are poorly written and make no sense. It seems to be this one..."

"What nonsense! The person who said that the lyrics are poorly written is the one who is making no sense! I think it sounds great!"

"Although the melody is a bit strange, it is really nice and suitable for the occasion."

"One-sided infatuation ultimately loses to an unfaithful person!"

The crowd discussed one after another, and many even wiped away their tears.

Zhao Ning was also moved. Although she had obtained the music score of "Tanchuang" that day, she only thought that it was a tool for Ying Wuji to approach Hua Chao, and did not find a musician to perform it. She did not expect it to be so mournful and touching, and it must have been done with great care.

She looked at Ying Wuji and smiled slightly: "Brother Ying has amazing poetry skills, but he is willing to lower himself and write folk songs. I admire such talent!"

"Where, where!"

"But there are some small loopholes in this plot."

"Oh? Please enlighten me, Brother Zhao."

"Since the Zhou dynasty, it has always been the nobles who rule. In the past, Luo Xiang was also a guest of the Wei family for a long time, and only after gaining their trust was he recommended for an official position. In the play, Chen Shimei was appointed by the court first, and then he caught the attention of the prime minister's daughter. This is impossible in any country."

"Tut..."

Ying Wuji smacked his lips. There was no problem with what Zhao Ning said.

Under the rule of Zhou Tianzi, almost all the lords were aristocrats. Even after the rise of the Hundred Schools of Thought, wise men could recommend each other, but someone had to recommend you. Without friendship or loyalty, who would be willing to recommend you?

Even in the Kingdom Qian, the only country where the common people have a fixed upward path, they still implement the military merit system. Only after fierce battles can one have the possibility of rising to the upper class.

As for other countries, the difficulty of upward mobility is at least ten times more brutal.

Someone like Chen Shimei, who would only be favored if he acted like a dog, is simply impossible."At the time, Ying Wuji didn't think much about it and just added a layer of recommendation system to the imperial examinations and posted it directly.

Ying Wuji glanced at Zhao Ning and felt that this person was a bit of a troublemaker. After playing Tai Chi with me for half a day, he didn't want to reveal his identity at all.

Damn, why are there so many troubles just to watch a show!

He casually said, "Let the mistakes be mistakes. This story is made up, and the Song Kingdom is naturally fictional. If you want to become an official in this country, you have to take the exam. If you pass, you will be the emperor's student and don't need to serve as a dog for the nobles."

"What!"

Zhao Ning's pupils shrank, and he immediately slapped his thigh and stood up.

The Emotional Bar immediately soared, and in an instant, it exploded to full capacity!

[Tip]: When the target's emotional fluctuation value reaches 100, they will obtain the Earth-level spell "Thirty-six Techniques of the Heavenly Gang: Fetal Transformation Eases Form."

Ying Wuji: "..."

To be honest, he was a little confused and didn't know why this little brother suddenly became so excited. Clearly, the Emotional Bar had been stable all along and never exceeded twenty. Why did he get so excited when it came to the imperial examinations?

If you were the current prince or the Pingling Jun who was eyeing the throne, and had political ambitions, I could understand.

But I know what the prince and Pingling Jun look like, and they don't look like you at all!

Although you are surnamed Zhao, you have no qualifications to inherit the throne. Why are you so excited?

Although Ying Wuji was confused, it didn't affect his happiness.

Thirty-six Techniques of the Heavenly Gang? Fetal Transformation Eases Form?

Even for nobles and even the royal family, it was extremely difficult to learn Earth-level spells. It required both intelligence and opportunities. Moreover, the Thirty-six Techniques of the Heavenly Gang were treasures of Taoism. Not only could it greatly enhance one's cultivation speed, but it could also change one's form at will. Unless it was someone who had also learned Fetal Transformation Eases Form, no one could tell.

Treasure!

Learn it!

With a thought, the blue light ball turned into a clear stream and merged into his body, thoroughly mastering Fetal Transformation Eases Form.

And the scene in his vision also underwent subtle changes.

Zhao Ling, who was handsome and unparalleled just now... turned into a beautiful woman.

A woman?

Ying Wuji was stunned, and he seemed to understand something.

If Zhao Ling was a man, he naturally wouldn't have emotional fluctuations because of the imperial examinations, but if he was a woman, it would be different! It was rumored that although the Li King had few sons, he had many princesses. There were several princesses who were siblings with the prince Zhao Ning.

In this way, everything made sense.

The Zhao Ling in front of him was likely Zhao Ning's sister or younger sister, and the kind who could be a wise counselor behind Zhao Ning's back. It was reasonable for her to be surprised by the imperial examinations!

Having figured this out, Ying Wuji's eyes towards Zhao Ling became even more enthusiastic. "Zhao Xiong, what's wrong with you?"

"I, I'm fine!"Zhao Ning finally regained her composure. It wasn't because she was emotionally unstable, but because Ying Wuji's words had caused too much of an impact on her.

Noble politics were a problem that no country could escape. After all, the world was too big. Without relying on the nobles, how could such a vast territory be managed?

It was the same in commerce!

It was the same in Zhou!

All the lords of the world were the same!

Especially in the Kingdom of Li, noble politics had pushed them to the edge of a cliff. The court officials officially respected the king, but in reality, they only served their own families behind the scenes.

It was the same in Han!

It was the same in Wei!

All the aristocratic families were the same!

If it weren't for the fact that the Zhao clan's power was strong enough, the Great Li would have long since disintegrated.

But if they could turn the fictional story of Ying Wuji into reality, and educate the common people, bringing them into the court as the king's students, and with the help of the Qian Kingdom's nascent county system, they could completely break free from the shackles of the aristocratic families. Then this problem would be solved, wouldn't it?

The process would certainly be extremely difficult, but once successful, it would be a peaceful and prosperous era where the king's power was supreme.

What kind of monster was Ying Wuji?

This trip out of the palace was worth it!

Ying Wuji felt her burning gaze, feeling both uneasy and excited.

By the way... Zhao Ling was quite good-looking.

Is she trying to seduce me for a free meal?

"Brother Zhao! Don't stare at me like that, I'm scared..."

"Ah...sorry!"

"Let's drink tea and watch the show!"

"Oh..."

Zhao Ning calmed down and quickly poured herself a cup of tea. Although she wanted to have a heart-to-heart talk with Ying Wuji, it was obviously not the right time. They could talk later.

For now, let's watch the show!

She turned her gaze to the stage, where Qin Xianglian and her daughter were being chased by Chen Shimei's men, and curses could be heard from across the river.

"This damn Chen Shimei, he's a beast!"

"Damn Chen Shimei, he's pissing me off!"

"Hey hey hey! Chen Shimei, I'll kill you!"

In the end, Qin Xianglian and her daughter were chased to a dead end. Just before they fainted, they saw a figure, who seemed to be the swordsman Zhan Zhao beside Bao Qingtian.

Then, the play abruptly stopped.

There was a chorus of complaints from across the river.

"What's next? Is that it?"

"Is it over?"

"That's it?"

In front of everyone's eyes, the actors on the stage retreated behind the stage, and two banners were hung on either side of the stage, one long and one short.

The short ones corresponded to each other: The first sword on the shore, the first to slay the target!

The long ones also corresponded to each other: To know what happens next, watch the next performance!

"Boom!"

There was an explosion across the river, and this time it wasn't cursing Chen Shimei.

"This damn Ying Wuji, she's a beast!"

"Damn Ying Wuji, she's pissing me off!"

"Hey hey hey! Ying Wuji, I'll kill you!"

Zhao Ning: "..."There will be another chapter at 12 noon.
