After the courtiers walked out of the Lizheng Hall, they did not go back to their respective divisions as usual, but found their seats among the several cases on both sides of the square. After taking their seats, they chatted with colleagues on the left and right.
Chang De had been waiting at the door when all the officials started to retreat, and followed Emperor Jing silently until Emperor Jing took his seat at the front.
The envoys of Qi State also had their seats, but the expressions on everyone's faces were not very good-looking.
It was originally a very serious and formal competition, but it seems to have become a performance. Jingguo officials sat on both sides to watch, and many of them were envoys from other countries. I heard that even their family members will come. A good competition has turned into a group of people watching Lively, this is undoubtedly a great insult to them.
Li Yi also just found out that the empress and many celebrities in Kyoto will also come here after the love-giving activities.
His current title is county magistrate, and he still can't make a splash in the elite circle of the capital city, but his position on the field is extremely front, with a small canopy above to cover the sun. Not many, there were only a dozen or so in the audience.
The county uncle naturally does not have this qualification, but Li Xuan has it. The location here is big enough and the view is wide enough. It is a rare treasure.
It would be nice not to have to bask in the sun with most people. Li Yi sat there alone and ate two pieces of melons and fruits. Dozens of figures emerged from another direction.
Numerous female family members came out from a palace gate, and countless maids came forward to ask them respectfully and brought them to the designated location.
"Qin'er, here." Li Xuan waved his hand not far away and said.
Shi Zifei and Ruyi walked over arm in arm, whispering something while walking.
Although Ruyi is also the wife of the County Countess in name, in fact, like him, she is not very familiar with other dignitaries in the capital. Because of her relationship with Li Xuan, she has met the Crown Princess several times, and gradually became familiar with her. stand up.
Li Yi and Li Xuan gave them the shady place in the back, and they sat in front.
Before the official competition, there are always important people to give some speeches. This process is usually very boring. After finally getting through to the beginning, I looked up and found that the person representing Jing Guo was the one who had been introduced to him by Li Xuan just now. The man named Xue Yong.
When he saw the people sent by Qi Guo, Li Xuan was obviously startled.
"female?"
He doesn't discriminate against women, but not just any woman is like Mingzhu. The people of Qi sent such a woman to compete with Xue Yong, did they give up
Are those young people from Qi Kingdom all here to watch the excitement
If this is the case, today's competition will not be so exciting.
Although one game does not determine the victory or defeat, each side has three people, and winning two of the three games is considered a victory, but it is not so easy to give away one head at the beginning, and it is not so easy to win.
Li Yi watched the familiar woman walk into the arena, and a look of surprise appeared on his face, how could it be her
Xue Yong walked to the stage, laughed twice and said: "Haha, is there no one in your country of Qi? You actually let a woman come over. I, Xue Yong, don't want to bully women. You should replace someone as soon as possible!"
There was a burst of laughing voices around, Jing Guo's courtiers were of course very happy to watch Qi Guo's jokes.
"Hmph, arrogance, let's talk after you win!" An envoy of Qi State snorted coldly and said.
Although he didn't know why the third prince made such an arrangement, even he himself doubted whether the woman whom he met for the first time today would be able to win, so he naturally didn't show the slightest timidity on the surface.
"Is Xue Yong very good?" Li Yi turned his head and looked at Li Xuan and asked.
"Of course." Li Xuan said without hesitation: "Xue Yong was trained by the old general Xue. When he was young, he was the most capable fighter among all the generals, and he was often instructed by Chang Zongguan. woman."
"Can he win... that one?" Li Yi looked forward and gave him a little signal.
Seeing Li Mingzhu standing there, Li Xuan was stunned and said, "Mingzhu, she can't be counted..."
"That's why you can't beat it."
According to people's general conception, women are born in a weak position in such matters, but it is not ruled out that there are heroines like Princess Mingzhu and Miss Liu Er who have made countless men ashamed. Li Yi felt that there was something weird about this woman. , Qi people are not stupid, Xue Yong may not be so simple to win.
"If that's the case, then girl, you're offended!" With so many people watching the contest between countries, Xue Yong would not really stride towards the woman in a gentleman's spirit.
However, he still had contempt for the woman in his heart, he didn't choose a weapon, and when he had already walked to the woman, seeing that she was not moving at all, he couldn't help but stop, and asked: "Are you better or not? "
"Ready?" The woman finally looked up at him and said.
"Of course, it's you..." Xue Yong said inexplicably.
"good."
However, before he finished a sentence, he felt that the woman's figure had disappeared in front of his eyes.
Afterwards, he felt a pain in his neck, and after a moment of blackness before his eyes, he completely lost consciousness.
Plop!
Xue Yong fell to the ground, and the competition ended.
Someone picked up a piece of melon and fruit, but before he could put it in his mouth, it fell to the ground with a flick of his wrist.
Li Xuan was even more stunned on the spot, and Xue Yong was actually killed in a flash. Doesn't it mean that the girl who looks younger than Xue Yong is much, much stronger than him...
When Li Yi was equally surprised, Ruyi stepped forward and said, "Do you think this woman looks familiar, Mr. Xiang?"
Even Ruyi said so, it seems that he should have had some intersection with her before.
Li Yi frowned, and when he was thinking hard, there was an uproar on the left and right because of what happened just now.
"How could it be like this, even Xue Yong lost, who else in the younger generation can win?"
"Look at that scene just now... oh, the difference is too far, the difference is too far!"
"What can we do now, is it true that we want the people of Qi to win this round?"
…
…
Unexpectedly, such an ordinary-looking woman is so powerful. Although there are two more rounds to come, if there is no one in the younger generation who can beat her, even if there are ten or hundreds more rounds, the same fate will happen.
Xue Yong was quickly carried down by two guards. After the examination, the imperial doctor looked at old general Xue and said, "It's okay, I just fainted, and I'll wake up in a while."
Old General Xue's expression softened slightly. Emperor Jing looked at the young woman in the field, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes. Even he knew that the strength of the younger generation's competition was not much different. , Xue Yong is already very powerful, but even he is not the enemy of the girl from Qi State. In the next two games, no matter who is sent up, won't he still lose
Behind him, Chang De frowned, and when he looked at the woman, his eyes flickered, and his face showed a thoughtful look.
"Father, let me come to the next match."
At this time, a pleasant voice suddenly came from beside him.
