Finally, on the fourth day, it was also the day when Dong Qin and Xi Chu competed again.
It was more than an hour before noon, and both the east and west stands were already filled with people.
Almost all the civil and military officials of the Western Chu Kingdom were present. On the opposite side of the Eastern Qin Stand, the envoys of the Eastern Qin Kingdom, except Namtso, were all present.
The two sides faced each other across the stands, but their expressions were completely different.
The envoys of the Eastern Qin Dynasty all looked like they wanted to avenge their previous humiliation, but the ministers of the Western Chu Kingdom were all radiant and energetic. They gathered together in twos and threes to talk, and all they talked about was the competition that was about to begin.
They all have great confidence in Princess Dingyuan's ability to win.
But seeing that noon was approaching, everyone stretched their necks and kept looking at the school gate, but they never saw the figures of King Dingyuan and Princess.
The ministers began to feel uneasy and discussed one after another.
"That day at the palace banquet, I heard that the princess was sick. Could it be that she hasn't recovered yet, so she couldn't come?"
"No, no, I remember clearly that the Crown Prince of the Eastern Qin Dynasty gave a thousand-year-old snow ginseng to King Dingyuan. Even if the illness is severe, the snow ginseng will heal."
"Perhaps King Dingyuan doesn't want the princess to show up and participate in the competition. No, even King Dingyuan didn't show up."
"Isn't King Dingyuan shrinking from the battle? If he dares not to show up for such a big event, then he will be the biggest sinner of our Western Chu Kingdom!"
The more everyone waited, the more anxious and angry they became, and the words they said became less and less pleasant to listen to.
Even Queen Mother Zhou couldn't hold her breath anymore. She looked up at the sky outside, put down the tea cup in her hand, and looked at Mo Chuan.
"Emperor, Shaoyang, could he... could he..." She pondered, then shook her head and said, "The Ai family doesn't think he is so ignorant."
But there was a look of displeasure on her face.
Mo Chuan, however, remained calm and said calmly: "Don't worry, mother, Shaoyang is the son of the late emperor, and he is also of the royal family. He knows what to do."
But the time was getting closer and closer to noon, and Chu Shaoyang and Shen Ning still didn't show up. How could Queen Mother Zhou not be anxious
Mo Chuan's eyes were turned to the opponent's Dongqin Stand, and he quickly glanced at the crowd, wondering in his heart, and feeling vaguely uneasy at the same time.
Everyone in the Eastern Qin envoy group is here, but only Namtso is missing. What does this mean? Isn't this Namtso trying to play another trick
"Little Four."
He called Xiao Si and whispered a few instructions in his ear, asking him to go to the other side's Dong Qin envoy group to find out information.
Although Xiao Si's skills are not top-notch, he is smart and clever, as slippery as a fish, and is often better at gathering information than chasing the wind.
After Xiaosi left, Mo Chuan felt that his heart could no longer calm down, as if something bad was about to happen.
It was the same on the day of the last competition. She was in the eldest princess's mansion fine, but suddenly she was kidnapped by Chu Shaoyang...
His heart was beating suddenly, and he suddenly thought that something had happened to her, right
Immediately, he comforted himself, no, no, Zhui Feng was guarding her, and Doctor Zhang's house was very safe. Even if Chu Shaoyang thought hard, he would never have thought that she would always live in Doctor Zhang's house.
But the uneasiness in his heart still grew.
"Your Majesty!" Xiao Si hurried back and told him.
