Chapter 573: Candidate for Queen(1/2)

Danzhou City.

The Queen Mother wanted to draft a talent show for the Emperor, and spread it across the world.

Fan Xian had nothing to do all day, so he naturally heard the news.

Thinking of his sister Fan Ruoruo in Kyoto, Fan Xian, who has a "sister-control" problem, began to be unable to sit still at home.

Early that morning, Fan Xian, who had had a nightmare all night, put forward his idea to the old lady while eating breakfast:

"Grandma, I want to go to Kyoto."

"Going to Kyoto? What are you doing in Kyoto?"

The old lady was a little surprised. Her grandson had been staying in Danzhou City all these years and had never come up with similar ideas.

Why is he going to Kyoto today?

Fan Xian hesitated for a moment. He knew that if he told his reasons, the old lady would definitely disagree.

However, if I make up another reason, I will definitely not be able to hide it from the old lady.

Therefore, after hesitating again and again, Fan Xian just frowned and said in a solemn tone:

"Grandma, I just have something important. I want to go to Kyoto. It's very important, very important."

The old lady looked at her grandson, with a kind and reluctant expression in her eyes:

"Xian'er, are you doing it because of Ruoruo's participation in the talent show?"

For Fan Xian, who has grown up in Danzhou since childhood, matters related to him in Kyoto City are also matters of the Fan family.

There was only one major event in the Fan family recently that could make Fan Xian lose his composure like this.

That is the purpose of the talent show that has just been invented all over the world.

The old lady also comes from a family of officials and has lived for such a long time, so she still has this bit of wisdom.

Seeing that the old lady had guessed his motives, Fan Xian could only kneel down with a plop and plead:

"Grandma, Ruoruo is my sister. Now she is going to participate in the draft. Once she is selected, it will be as difficult as going to the palace. As an elder brother, at this time, both emotionally and rationally, I should go and see

Bar?"

When the old lady was young, she was considered a sweet-tempered person. When her grandson said what he said was reasonable, she naturally would not stop him, and even reminded him:

"Since you are going, hurry up and don't delay. Also, before you go, write a letter to your father in advance..."

The old master taught Fan Xian earnestly, reminding him what he needed to pay attention to after arriving in Kyoto City.

Fan Xian was naturally moved after hearing this.

Afterwards, the old lady personally wrote a letter home and sent it to Kyoto on a fast horse.

As for Fan Xian, although he also wanted to set off immediately, his identity was that he was just an illegitimate child after all, so he had to abide by some rules.

On the second day, Fan Xian had prepared the road guide, and then called his Uncle Wuzhu, and the two of them rode fast horses towards Kyoto City.

A few days passed by.

In late September, Fan Xian and Wu Zhu finally arrived in Kyoto City.

Under the city gate, the blindfolded Wuzhu suddenly raised his head and frowned at the sky:

"Fan Xian, I have something to do and I need to leave for a while."

"Uncle Wuzhu, aren't you going to the city with me?"

Fan Xian did not expect that Uncle Wu Zhu, who had protected him since childhood, would be separated just after they arrived in Kyoto City.

"I'm going to the city too, but I can't be with you."

Wu Zhu didn't say the reason why he was leaving, but before leaving, he told Fan Xian that when he finished his work, he would definitely go to Fan's mansion to find him.

Seeing his Uncle Wu Zhu leave, Fan Xian had no choice but to go into the city alone.

After paying the city gate tax, Fan Xian led two horses and headed towards the city.

As soon as he walked out of the deep city gate, Fan Xian was attracted by a crisp "brother".

"Brother, here it is."

Since Fan Ruoruo learned the news the day before yesterday that her eldest brother was coming to Kyoto City, she had been waiting in a carriage at the city gate for the past two days.

Although the two hadn't seen each other for several years, Fan Ruoruo still recognized Fan Xian's appearance at a glance. He opened the curtains, stuck out his head, and waved vigorously towards Fan Xian.

Fan Xian also saw the carriage protected by more than a dozen guards. Fan Ruoruo's little head was sticking out, waving to him:

"Ruoruo."

When Fan Xian saw his sister coming to greet him, he felt relieved.

He was really afraid that he would be late and never see his sister again.

"Brother, get in the car."

Fan Ruoruo was sitting in the carriage and waved to Fan Xian to get in the car.

Fan Xian got into the car and saw that in addition to his sister, there was a nanny next to him.

Seeing that his brother was confused, Fan Ruoruo introduced him:

"Brother, this is Aunt Zhang who comes from the palace to teach me the rules of the palace."

"Hello, Grandma Zhang."

Fan Xian saw that his sister's tone of voice showed that she was not so disgusted with the draft, and he let go of his worries a little.

"Hello Mr. Fan."

Seeing that Fan Xian seemed a little defensive about her, Grandma Zhang simply introduced herself:

"I was introduced to the house by your concubine. Don't worry, Mr. Fan. When Miss Fan enters the palace, she will be taken care of by your concubine. She will definitely not be bullied."

Fan Ruoruo saw her brother's confused face at Grandma Zhang's introduction and quickly explained to him:

"Your concubine is Princess Yong'an. She is Aunt Liu's cousin..."

"It turns out that my family is still considered a relative of the emperor."

When Fan Xian heard his sister's explanation, he let go of some of his worries.

The two brothers and sisters chatted for more than half an hour before they passed through the outer city and arrived at the inner city.

After entering the inner city, the speed of the carriage increased a lot.

After rushing for another ten minutes, we finally stopped at the entrance of Earl Sinan's Mansion.

The warrior driving the carriage shouted, and the concierge quickly opened the corner door on the side, allowing the carriage to enter the house directly.

Fan Ruoruo waited until the carriage stopped at the Moon Gate in the back garden before calling his eldest brother to get off.

Fan Xian's sudden arrival, someone had already gone to notify Mrs. Fan, namely Liu Ruyu.

As an outsider, it is not convenient for Grandma Zhang to be present at this time.

She said hello to Fan Ruoruo and Fan Xian, and went to Fan Ruoruo's yard to rest.

Fan Ruoruo led Fan Xian towards the main hall of the back house.

After a while, the two of them arrived in front of the main hall.

Now Mrs. Sinan Bo, Liu Ruyu, stood at the door, smiling and saying hello:

"Ruoruo, this is Xian'er, right? He looks really talented, and he is worthy of being the child of our Fan family."

"Aunt Liu, this is my eldest brother Fan Xian."

When Fan Ruoruo faced Liu Ruyu, she still called her "aunt".

This is somewhat against the rules.

After all, Liu Ruyu has now been helped up by Fan Jian, and she is still a first-class lady registered in the imperial book.

As the daughter of Fan Jian, if Fan Ruoruo does not respect Liu Ruyu, the principal wife, she is disrespecting the imperial court.

However, Liu Ruyu might have been angry because of this matter before, but now, she dare not take it seriously.

Fan Ruoruo had entered the palace to participate in a primary election a few days ago.

After the first round of primaries, according to rumors, three people were chosen as queens.

The first choice was Lin Wan'er, the illegitimate daughter of Prime Minister Lin and the eldest princess.

The second candidate is Ye Ling'er, grand-niece of Grand Master Ye Liuyun.

The third candidate is Fan Ruoruo, the daughter of their Fan family and the most talented woman in Kyoto City today.

In Liu Ruyu's view, even if Fan Ruoruo could not become a queen, she would at least be a noble concubine, or a concubine Shu, or a concubine Xian.

At that time, the entire Fan family will have to rely on Fan Ruoruo for support.

At this time, Liu Ruyu would naturally not offend Fan Ruoruo.

A few people were chatting and laughing, and the maid served tea. Suddenly, they heard a young man rushing in with a drake voice and an angry roar:
