Nan Nan was stunned, looked at him suspiciously, and asked, "What kind of game."
Ye Xiu squinted his eyes but made no sound. The emperor's face darkened. He probably knew that the third prince had bad intentions, and he was about to speak out to stop him from continuing.
However, the third prince was quick-sighted and said it out loud before the emperor could speak, "I heard that you have a foundation in martial arts, and you showed your skills in the yard last time. Since you play chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and so on, If it doesn’t work, how about using martial arts?”
"Martial arts?" Nan Nan thought for a moment, and it seemed that compared to reading and writing, he was indeed better at martial arts. After all, he was very good at martial arts.
When he thought of this, Nan Nan immediately nodded with a smile on his face, "Okay, then let's do martial arts."
"Nannan!!" The emperor frowned and coughed lightly, "Fistes and feet have no eyes, so they can be easily injured."
"No, no." Nannan was very confident, "My kung fu is very good, it can't hurt me."
Where does this little thing get its confidence from? Since ancient times, the Four Kingdoms Competition has never allowed five-year-old children to participate in martial arts competitions. Most of them are eight to ten-year-old seed players who have been trained since childhood. By then, South-South will really have three good and two short, and the consequences will be serious. .
But Nannan was very sure of himself, and without waiting for the emperor to say anything else, he made an agreement with the third prince, "Okay, then I'll be brave. When the time comes, I will definitely get you the first one to come back and bring glory to the country." .”
"Wait a minute." The third prince smiled, but still had no intention of giving up. "I think you are not suitable for bow and arrow shooting. I am afraid that you are too small to hold a bow and arrow, so you should just participate in a martial arts fight."
"Ye Haokang!!" The emperor suddenly raised his eyes and looked at the third prince, his voice was dark and sharp.
The third prince's heart suddenly pounded, and he immediately knelt on the ground, lowering his head and not daring to speak any more.
The emperor sneered, "You are really capable. I am still here. Is it your turn to decide the right to compete in the Four Nations Competition?"
"Father, I don't dare." The third prince's eyes were darting around, and he quickly defended himself, "Father, I know that this child made a mistake just now and angered the father, but this time After all, the child is still young. I really can’t bear the thought that this child, who is similar to Lan Wei, has his head missing. Father, please spare his life. Why don’t we let him atone for his sins and compete for our Fengcang Kingdom in the Four Kingdoms Competition? First place, this can be regarded as leaving a talent for our Feng Cang Kingdom. But this child can't play chess, calligraphy and painting, and I am worried. Fortunately, he can kung fu, which is considered an advantage. He can participate in martial arts. It’s most suitable.”
The emperor sneered, "You are really kind."
It was clear that he wanted to put Nannan to death, but in the end, he claimed that he was the hero and that he had lost etiquette because he wanted to save his life.
The emperor took a deep breath and looked at Ye Xiudu, not knowing what he was thinking when he saw his eyes squinting slightly. Even now, he didn't say anything to save his son, and he felt unhappy at the moment.
But Nannan came to add fuel to the fire.
"Your Majesty, I will participate in the martial arts fight. Don't worry, I will definitely come back with the first place."
"Nannan, martial arts is not as simple as you think." Ye Haoran also tried to persuade him. He was really worried that the child would die on his own.
Even Ye Lansheng on the side tugged at the hem of Nannan's clothes to tell him to be silent.
The third prince who was kneeling on the ground laughed secretly and winked at the fourth prince. The latter immediately knelt in front of the emperor and said loudly, "Father, please be merciful. Please give this child a chance to atone for his sins and let him participate in martial arts."
Seeing these two princes doing this, Miao Qianqiu felt extremely anxious.
At this moment, a eunuch from behind made a gesture to him.
Eunuch Miao was overjoyed and hurriedly interrupted, "Your Majesty, the Seventh Prince is awake."
The emperor immediately changed the subject, "Oh? Is Lao Qi awake?"
"Yes, the Emperor has been worried about the condition of the Seventh Prince these past few days, and has been having trouble sleeping and eating. Now that the Seventh Prince has woken up, the Emperor should be relieved."
The third prince and the fourth prince looked at each other and were secretly angry. Their father had not yet agreed to let the child fight.
The two of them opened their mouths and wanted to speak again, but Ye Xiudu, who had been silent all the time, suddenly stood up and said, "Father, I miss my seventh brother in my heart. Now that my seventh brother is awake, I want to visit Yixing Palace."
As soon as the emperor heard his voice, he breathed an inexplicable sigh of relief, nodded and stood up, saying, "I also want to see Lao Qi, Eunuch Miao, and show off."
"Yes." Eunuch Miao responded and quickly went out to tell the eunuchs and maids to prepare.
However, seeing the emperor take the imperial court without saying anything, the third prince and the fourth prince immediately became anxious, "Father, regarding this child..."
"We'll talk about this later, Lan Sheng, you go back to the courtyard first. Go back and think about your mistakes behind closed doors for me. If you dare to wander around again, no one can save you." The emperor snorted coldly, and his cold eyes fell on the three princes. , waved his sleeves, and strode out of the imperial study.
Nan Nan wanted to follow him, but his mouth was covered by Ye Lansheng. When he saw the warning look from his father, he suddenly stood there feeling frustrated.
The prince glared at Ye Lansheng fiercely, "Just calm down." After saying that, he immediately stepped up to catch up, "Father, I also miss my seventh brother very much and want to visit him together..."
Nannan let out a big sigh and was reluctantly pulled away by Ye Lansheng.
The third prince and the fourth prince frowned slightly, their faces looking very bad. After a while, they stood up from the ground, staring in the direction of Nan Nan with dark and fierce eyes.
But when they turned back, they saw that the prince and others had followed the emperor to Yixing Palace. They didn't want to be called princes who didn't care about their brothers at this juncture, so they paused and hurriedly followed them. .
Therefore, when the emperor's sedan chair stopped at Yixing Palace, in addition to Ye Xiudu who had followed him from the beginning, there were also many princes standing behind him.
Yu Qingluo was startled when she saw this posture, and the corners of her mouth hidden under the veil couldn't help but twitch twice, and then she followed Concubine Meng to welcome the holy driver.
Fortunately, the seventh prince woke up, otherwise she would really have no patience to continue playing Tai Chi with Concubine Meng here.
The emperor smiled and helped Concubine Meng up. When he saw her, he raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Are you the ghost doctor that Xiu'er brought here to detoxify Haoting, Miss Qing?"
"Yes." Yu Qingluo lowered her head slightly and spoke coldly.
The third prince, who had already been holding back his anger, found out that Ye Xiu had brought her here alone, and immediately started to challenge her, "How dare you wear a veil when you see the emperor?"
