Princess Is Glamorous In Modern Day - Chapter 1566

Chapter 1566 Peach Blossom Pastry

The world had decided that it needed some happy events to whitewash it. Hence, the ceremony to choose a prince consort was especially grand.

Because there were too many people who signed up, the final selection method was like a level test.

The most preliminary screening was filtered through age, height, and appearance.

Excluding those below eight feet tall and those above thirty years old, what was left were slender young talents with outstanding appearances.

!!
The second screening was a literary test. The men who participated in the selection of the Prince Consort passed three tests as if they were taking the imperial examination and finally five hundred of them were left.

The third round was the martial test. Among the five hundred men, the most outstanding hundred men were chosen through a real battle.

At this point, the hundred most outstanding men in the world were selected. Only then did these hundred men have the right to enter the palace and see Xia Wanyuan.

This emperor’s son-in-law selection ceremony was grand and unheard of in the world, so much so that this huge matter was spreading everywhere on the streets.

“Eldest Princess, the commoners love you very much.” Hearing the commoners’ discussion, Xie Yun turned to look at Xia Wanyuan.

Such a huge ceremony actually cost a lot of money. If it were anyone else holding such a huge ceremony just to choose a prince consort, they would probably have drowned in the saliva of the commoners.

However, they had been sitting here for two hours. The commoners who came and went praised Xia Wanyuan. Towards this grand ceremony, everyone seemed to be Xia Wanyuan’s family and helped her choose the most suitable prince consort.

“In my opinion, our Prime Minister is still the most suitable to be the Prince Consort. I heard that the Prime Minister is young and handsome and capable. He’s simply a perfect match for our Eldest Princess.”

“Isn’t King Ning An not bad too?? Didn’t you hear? King Ning An is only pretending to form an alliance with King Jiangdong. In fact, he helped our Eldest Princess win the final battle. Furthermore, in order to save our Eldest Princess, King Ning An is still unconscious.”

“Aiyaya, you’re making me really curious. What does this Eldest Princess look like to be able to make so many geniuses in the world fall in love with her?”

Everyone’s words drilled into Xia Wanyuan’s ears word by word. She turned around and was about to say something when she met Xie Yun’s meaningful gaze.

Xia Wanyuan’s hand that was holding the cup paused.

In all fairness, Xie Yun was a good minister and a rare talent as a prime minister. Such a person should not drown in her.

“Thank you, Prime Minister.” Xia Wanyuan decided to explain to Xie Yun.

Xie Yun was a smart person and naturally knew what Xia Wanyuan wanted to say to him.

“Eldest Princess.” Xie Yun poured a cup of tea for Xia Wanyuan. “People who like the moon don’t insist on having it, but they have to chase it at least once. Don’t you think so?”

Xia Wanyuan took a sip of tea. “Mm.”

The two of them did not say anything else.

After a few days of rest, the last hundred men would go to the palace today to accept Xia Wanyuan and Xia Wei’s assessment.

Not far away, the voices of the honor guard could already be vaguely heard. A hundred handsome men rode past the street on tall horses.

“Eldest Princess, the pre-selected Prince Consort is about to enter the palace. We should go back.”

Xia Wanyuan stood up, but she stopped the moment she left. She turned around and glanced at the peach blossom pastry on the table. “Take a portion of this and send it to Tai Hua Hall.”

Hearing Xia Wanyuan’s words, Xie Yun’s eyes flickered.

Tai Hua Hall was Jun Shiling’s hall.

Watching Xia Wanyuan leave, Xie Yun shook his head gently.

There would probably not be a winner in this selection ceremony, because there was someone who had already won Xia Wanyuan’s heart even if he lay there and did nothing.
