The emperor notified Wen Yue, Chen Abu, and Bao Baogang to have another competition. As for whether they want to compete, that depends on what they want. Anyway, the emperor's wish is that if you don't give up, you can compare. If you give up, there is no need to compete.
Wen Yue wanted to compete. Everyone said that everyone in the world knew about Bai Shinian, but few people knew about him. He proved to everyone that he was no worse than Bai Shinian.
Mr. Wen frowned: "Now that we are married, why do we compete again? Is this so-called marriage weird?" It was not like Wen Laoye had not sent someone to inquire about it that day. However, in such a short time, where can I find the information I want? The late emperor's cleaning work was still good.
Wen Yue lowered his eyes, paused for a moment and then said, "I guess this so-called marriage and bridal chamber are just a formality, or an oolong. Otherwise, why didn't Bai Shinian look for someone in a big way? Instead, he was like a thief, not knowing anything about it." I dare not announce it. I think the princess is not willing to marry. Otherwise, why has she not said anything for so many years? Grandma, I saw the princess twice, and I still looked at her. She is a girl. "How can I not know that I am married?" It was not that he had no doubts, but looking at the princess's expression, he was really confused, and looking at that look, he really didn't know anything (Wen Wan's acting skills are still good). Well, the princess has lost her memory and there is nothing she can do. But he was a little confused as to why Bai Shinian didn't know Wen Wan's identity. Moreover, if they really get married, why is the princess still a girl? Of course, this is not the point now. The point is that he must take the beauty home.
Wen Yue originally married Wen Wan just for the sake of the family, and to keep Bai Shinian under control. Now that we know that Wen Wan is Bai Shinian's sweetheart, we have to work hard to fight with Bai Shinian. Marrying Bai Shinian's sweetheart home will make Bai Shinian depressed and miserable for the rest of his life. Wen Yue didn't even think about it. Wen Wan didn't agree to marry him last time, so why did she agree to marry him this time? Isn't it strange?
Chen Abu was a little surprised to see that there was still a chance for them to participate in the competition. Chen Abu's staff must have guessed that the relationship between the two was only formal. otherwise. Why did the princess resist so fiercely (in the eyes of ancient people, the body already belongs to this man, and the heart must also belong to this man). The meaning of staff. It doesn't matter if the marriage is consummated. In the face of huge interests, there is no need to think too much about these small details.
Chen Abu thought twice. Still ready to participate. pity. He didn't have Wen Yue's confidence. Because he was too familiar with Bai Shinian. But now that I have stage fright, it doesn¡¯t mean I¡¯ve given up.
Bai Shinian knew the news, so he took part in the competition. Although a little unexpected. But it makes sense when you think about it. He was not worried at all about the competition. He doesn't dare to be the best in the world in horsemanship and archery skills. But they are definitely better than Wen Yue and Chen Abu. As for Wen Bi, although he is not as good as Wen Wan, he is certainly comparable to Wen Yue and Chen Abu. He still has confidence. Therefore, Bai Shinian knew about it and agreed immediately. Want to marry Wenwan. Wen Wan also had to be shown that he was worthy of his name. It's not that he is cheating the world and stealing his reputation, nor is he inferior to her. It¡¯s just that no one specializes in anything. Although he is very confident, it does not mean that he will take it lightly.
Bao Baosteel directly announced his abstention. Just kidding, he doesn't dare to think about the boss's woman.
Ye Xun praised his high moral integrity, but he actually meant that he was very practical.
Bao Baogang said cheerfully: "The boss has been looking forward to it for so many years. If I win, if I tell the boss that I can't think about her woman, where will the boss's face be put? It will also ruin the brotherhood."
Ye Xun laughed heartily: "You are too confident. Be careful if the general hears it and skins you." Ye Xun believed that Bao Baogang really would not miss Bai Shinian's wife. No matter who this woman was, she would I won¡¯t think about it. But in martial arts and literary talent, Bao Baogang can't even catch up with him. He even brazenly said here that his martial arts skills were superior to those of the general.
The test time issued by the imperial edict is on the second day. The emperor didn't have that much time to consider them. The sooner this matter is resolved the better. Tomorrow, when things get settled, the imperial edict of marriage will be issued. In this way, once there is a message outside, the marriage of the two is confirmed. Those rumors no longer exist.
Although everyone was worried about such a fast time, they all thought it was okay. They are all in the military camp. In the past ten years, the three of them have not missed a day's work. There is no such thing as timidity or improvising.
That night, many people couldn¡¯t sleep. They are all looking forward to tomorrow arriving early.
Because Wen Wan has figured it out, she doesn¡¯t worry about it anymore. That night, after practicing calligraphy in the study, I washed up and went to bed.
On this day, many people originally wanted to come and watch. Unfortunately, the emperor refused after careful consideration. Apart from those who must maintain order and serve as referees, the only guests watching were the old prime minister and Prince Hao.
Bai Shinian came the latest??A. When he was led to the school training ground, Wen Yue and Chen Abu were waiting there. The two of them couldn't stand Bai Shinian's sudden appearance. Whatever delicious food you have is indispensable for him.
Wen Yue has long hated Bai Shinian's arrival. From his debut to now, he has been suppressed for more than ten years. He is the second child of ten thousand years, so he can't hold back any resentment.
Chen Abu is because Bai Shinian went to the border and took the official position that should have belonged to him and his woman. It's only worse than the enemy who killed his father and his mother. In other words, the two of them are incompatible with each other.
After the three people arrived, they were led to see the emperor first. "Long live the emperor, long live the emperor."
The emperor said to the three people, "The competition is a little different from before. This competition is divided into three rounds. Three civil and military games each are just the first round. In the first round, the last one will be eliminated. The top two will enter the second round. One player is eliminated. If the last player also loses in the third game, the competition will be void."
Wen Yue¡¯s expression turned a little stiff, but he still said bravely: ¡°I wonder what the second and third rounds will be?¡± The first round was a civil and military competition, which had been agreed upon before. But what are the second and third games? Why did you change the title below?
The emperor said without feeling anything inappropriate at all: "The last two tests are gentle questions. You will know when the questions are asked."
To be honest, the emperor actually doesn¡¯t know. So the emperor said calmly: "We'll find out later."
Bai Shinian searched and did not see Wen Wan: "Your Majesty, I have a ruthless feeling. I hope that Princess Wenwan can be present. If the princess is willing to be the judge, that would be better."
The corner of the emperor's mouth twitched. If you want to meet someone and let Wen Wan see your extraordinary martial arts and make her heart-wrenching for you, just say so, it's wrong to give such a stupid excuse. However, since the person involved raised it, the emperor also intended to let it go. So someone told Wen Wan this. Said: "Come here. Please convey General Bai's words to the princess."
The people on the school field, except for the two people watching, were the old prime minister and Prince Hao. There are three other contestants, plus Bao Baogang (Bao Baogang told Bai Shinian to abstain, so he can come in as a contestant. He is here to watch the game today.)
When Wen Wan comes out. The three people in the center of the venue all felt their eyes light up.
Wen Wan was wearing a fiery red riding outfit and a pair of high boots. Her beautiful hair is tied up with a jade hairpin. This outfit looks heroic and flamboyant.
Not to mention the three candidates, even the emperor rarely sees Wen Wan wearing such flamboyant clothes. Wen Wan's clothes are all very plain. The emperor has been saying this before. Unfortunately it didn't have much effect. Unexpectedly, Wen Wan would be so unexpected today.
This is the first time for Wen Yue, yes. It was the first time I saw a woman wearing riding clothes, and she was so eye-catching. This will be gentle. He couldn't take his eyes away.
But Chen Abu was stunned when he saw Wen Wan's appearance. How is this different from the ugly palace maid yesterday? Then I realized that the princess had deliberately acted ugly yesterday. I have always heard that the princess behaves very strangely. I finally realized it today.
Seeing the three men on the field looking at her, Wen Wan raised her head proudly. Then he turned around and glared at Bai Shinian hatefully: "Did you ask me to be the referee?"
Bai Shinian now has a straight attitude: "Yes, I just want the princess to see our competition. Don't leave any regrets."
Wenwan is not only gentle on the face, but also scornful in his heart. Bastard, didn't he just want her to come and watch his unparalleled performance? It's not like showing off. Wen Wan said indifferently: "So, even before the competition, General Bai can be sure that you are number one."
Bai Shinian said proudly: "That's right."
"Wenwan's face shows contempt, she is too confident. Wen Wan turned around and encouraged the other two people: "You two, did you hear what he said? He treats you as nothing."
Chen Abu had anger on his face. A sneer flashed across the corner of Wen Yue's mouth.
Who is Wen Wan? Her ability to observe words and emotions has long been perfected. Although this sneer only flashed past, when it fell into Wen Wan's eyes, she couldn't help but think deeply. She didn't want anything to happen to Bai Shinian. Of course, it doesn't show on the face.
Wen Wan watched as three horses were brought out and given to three people respectively. The three men each took the reins.
Wen Wan was suspicious in her heart. According to the normal procedure, this was not the time to select a group of horses for them to choose from. So I asked strangely: "Aren't they allowed to choose horses freely? Why are there only three?"
The shepherd replied respectfully: "These three horses are the three best horses selected."
Wen Wan looked at the three horses, thinking about Wen Yue's sneer. He turned around and said to Xia Yao: "Go, find three guards, and give them?Horses warm up. "
Xia Ying doesn¡¯t know why. However, she carried out the gentle instructions.
Wen Wan misunderstood Wen Yue's sneer. Wen Yue just sneered at Bai Shinian's arrogance. It wasn't that he was playing any tricks. Wen Yue is also a very proud person. He sincerely wants to have a decisive battle with Bai Shinian. There is no way he would do such a nasty thing.
Of course, even if he thought about it, it would be impossible to stretch his hand so long. This is a very taboo thing.
It¡¯s a pity that Wen Wan experienced too many conspiracies in the palace. Therefore, whenever I see something abnormal, I start to speculate on conspiracy theories. However, Wen Wan's caution was unexpectedly wrong.
The three guards warmed up the horses. Xia Ying asked the three guards to run a few laps first. As a result, the horse given to Bai Shinian became irritable after running a few laps.
Fortunately, the warm-up was jogging, and the guard was only slightly injured after being thrown off. If the horse becomes agitated when the competition becomes intense and is thrown off due to the speed, it will not be a minor injury.
Bai Shinian's face turned dark immediately. However, he looked at Wen Wan with some luck. But when he saw Wen Wan's face, it was as ugly as frost. Bai Shinian was still very happy.
The emperor was also furious and ordered a thorough investigation on the spot. In their position, they never believed in coincidences. Regarding the Hei Shilin incident last time, the emperor was even more convinced that there was a conspiracy. Immediately order a thorough investigation. But the game still has to go on. The emperor ordered another group of horses to be selected for Bai Shinian to choose from.
Bai Shinian saw a guard bringing a tall horse with a strong trunk, slender limbs, strong and handsome.
The horse seemed to have a mental connection with Bai Shinian. It raised its head and neighed at Bai Shinian, its legs and hooves were light and its three legs were flying in the air. It looked like he was speeding towards Bai Shinian.
The guard watched the horse's movements and threw the reins on the horse's back. The horse ran towards the group. Bai Shinian looked at the horse. The eyes are very bright. I was wondering if I should ask the emperor for help if I stayed. Such a good horse is rare. If it were a mare, so much the better.
Wen Yue and Chen Abu are also knowledgeable people. One look at the horse showed that the grade of this horse was at least a grade higher than their two horses.
An unexpected thought flashed through both of their minds at the same time. This is Princess Wenwan, who is showing favoritism. In this case, there is no need to compare, so just announce that Bai Shinian will be chosen.
Bai Shinian was very happy to see the horse running ahead of him as if it had a spirit. Could it be that this good horse is so spiritual and knows that he recognizes his master? Acknowledge Him as Lord.
Unfortunately, the horse turned a corner not far in front of him. He walked towards Wen Wan and walked in front of Wen Wan. Wen Wan stretched out his hand and the horse rubbed its head against Wen Wan's hand affectionately. Wen Wan muttered a few words in front of the horse.
At this time, the herdsman brought five horses for Bai Shinian to choose. Bai Shinian looked at the gentle Xiao Hui with some longing. But then he thought, his wife's horse was not his horse. When the time came, I coaxed him over, and it was the same (gently complained: he is so shameless, and when he sees good things, he wants to keep them for himself).
Wen Yue smiled and said: "I never thought that the princess is also proficient in riding and shooting."
Wen Wan had a relatively good attitude toward Wen Yue, but the so-called good attitude was relative to Bai Shinian's stinky face: "Compared to you, mine is just playing house."
Bai Shinian said without humility at all: "Princess, I will take first place later, can I compete with you again. I want to see how good the princess's riding skills are."
Wen Wan glanced at Bai Shinian coldly. If so many people didn't agree, it would be a shame for him: "Okay, since General Bai is so confident, I will accompany you."
Bai Shinian looked at Wen Wan. Why do you use my name when talking to Wen Yue, but use my name when talking to him? This woman is doing something. Could it be that the two of them were together the day before yesterday was an illusion. No, it's definitely not an illusion. Well, as Ye Xun said, it¡¯s better not to guess Wen Wan¡¯s thoughts.
The emperor was naturally smiling. (To be continued)
