"Your Majesty, since Feiya and Princess Qingge have not decided the winner, it is better to let the three of them win this competition together, and how about the selection at the martial arts meeting in three days?"

Concubine Jin, who was sitting at the bottom left of King Chu and had never said a word, suddenly said.

Concubine Jin has always been quiet, and the quiet temperament of Prince Nan has more or less been passed down by her, and at any banquet large and small, she has always only looked at it with a smile, and never likes to talk and compete for the limelight.

It is precisely because of her quiet and indisputable nature that the emperor has been doting on her for so many years, both favored and respected.

This time she opened her mouth was unexpected by everyone, and as soon as the King of Chu heard about it, the corners of his eyebrows immediately raised, and he said with a smile: "The idea of the concubine is very deep!"

Thick eyebrows stretched, looked at the people below, and said loudly: "Tonight's Wendou banquet, the winner is the ninth princess of the Jin Kingdom, Dongling Qingge, the sixth princess of the Yue Kingdom, Tuoba Feiya, and the seventh princess of the Nanmu Kingdom, Murong Qiqi, I don't know this result, do you have any objections?"

It was quiet below, and no one interjected.

In this regard, the king of Chu was very satisfied, picked up the cup, looked at Donglin Qingge and Tuoba Feiya, and said with a smile: "I salute you with a cup, and congratulate the two princesses on their victory." ”

The two of them returned the salute and drank the wine together.

Everyone returned to their seats, whether they were sincere or fake, and drank happily again.

After the competition, the dancers and musicians in the court entered the venue in an orderly manner, and the whole venue resumed its usual liveliness, as if the picture of the wounded and dead just now did not exist at all.

The bodies of the palace maids and eunuchs who were shocked by Tanglin's light song had already been carried out and settled by the eunuchs.

Human life is not worth anything in the palace, and the nine princesses of the dignified Jin Kingdom killed several low-status people with a magic voice, who dares to say anything?

"I also give you a toast, congratulations on your victory tonight. Mu Chu picked up the cup and looked at Qiqi.

Just now, the king of Chu toasted, but he only toasted Tuoba Feiya and Tanglin Qingge, and never mentioned Qiqi's victory, and he deliberately excluded her.

No one present could not understand what King Chu meant, he never thought about letting Qiqi win, but seeing King Chu wronged her like this, he was also unwilling for her.

However, this girl only ate refreshments quietly from beginning to end, and didn't seem to care at all, which made him admire this lightness very much.

If she didn't participate in the selection of Princess Xuan today, he would definitely do his best to eliminate all difficulties for her and help her win the final victory.

But why does she want to fight for this position?

The times are pressing, and a mere Nanmu country really doesn't have too many qualifications to compete with the three major countries.

"I don't want to drink tonight. Qiqi poured out the wine in the cup, poured himself a cup of tea, picked up the cup and touched it with him, and said with a smile: "Ah Chu, thank you, I will invite you to a big meal when I turn around." ”

I can't say enough words, so I won't say anything, turn around, and give him something to eat.

Mu Chu didn't speak, but the wine he swallowed suddenly became bitter.

Thank you...... Maybe one day, she will only hate him......

The banquet slowly made a commotion, Qiqi wanted to leave a little, Mu Chu was injured tonight, and she wanted to go back to show him the injury first.

Tonight, she has to go to King Xuan's Mansion to do the last poison exorcism for Chu Xuanchi.

was about to stand up, but saw the plain white Lord Nan walk out of the crowd and slowly come to them.

Qiqi hurriedly stood up, just glanced at him, and his eyes fell on the cup in his hand: "Lord Wang, although the tea is fragrant, don't drink too strong tea in the end, it's not good for your body." ”

Chu Jiangnan clenched the five fingers of the cup tightly, but just now his father only toasted the wine of the two princesses, and he was leaving, so he stopped by to have a drink with her.

Since strong tea is not good, then, it's okay not to drink it.

"I heard that this dragon fragrant tea is a tribute from the country. Qiqi couldn't help licking the corners of her mouth, but she didn't notice that this inadvertent action made the throats of the two men around her suddenly tighten, she suddenly leaned closer, and said in a low voice: "This tea is so fragrant, I heard that there are also ...... in Nanwang's mansion."

Not only did Chu Jiangnan's thick eyebrows frown slightly, but even Mu Chu, who was on the side, couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

This girl is really greedy......

"Come to this king's mansion tomorrow, this king has something to ask the seventh princess. He handed the cup to her, and when he saw that she took it, he said lightly: "There are indeed two boxes of Longxiang tea in the house, if you can find it, it will be yours." ”

"Don't deliberately keep me from flipping around. ”

Staring at his departing back, she pursed her lips, in fact, she wanted to thank her, but Nan Wang Ye was afraid and didn't like to let people know that he secretly helped her.

Looking down at Mu Chu, who had been staring at her, she smiled and said, "This banquet doesn't belong to us, let's go back too." ”

Mu Chu didn't speak, and she couldn't see any gloom from her bright little face, this girl really didn't care about King Chu's alienated and indifferent treatment, this indifference made him feel a little better.

The palace maid who was waiting behind him said goodbye to the emperor, and the two left immediately, except for looking back at the Xuan Wangye, who was still sitting quietly in the seat and drinking, Qiqi really didn't have the slightest nostalgia for this banquet.

She understood what the King of Chu meant very well, and she was also very clear about her exclusion by the entire royal family of Chu, but so what?

The person she wants to marry is Lord Xuan, and what she has to do is her own business, the royal family of Chu State, she is really not rare.

"How is your body? Is there anything uncomfortable?" After leaving the lively banquet and walking on the path of the imperial garden, the smile on the corner of Qiqi's lips disappeared, and he looked at Mu Chu, who was a head taller than him, and asked seriously.

"It's okay, Helian helped overnight, it's okay. He looked at the road ahead, and there were two long shadows reflected in the moonlight.

Walking side by side, suddenly, there was a feeling of no longer being alone.

He has something on his mind, but Qiqi can't see through what he's thinking.

After a long time, he suddenly said: "Is Princess Xuan's position really so important to you, is it so important that you don't hesitate to fight with your life?"

Tonight is a miracle, although he knows very well that in the competition, those few people related to her will never watch her die in the venue, but, the open gun is easy to dodge, and the hidden arrow is difficult to prevent, she is really not afraid?

Qiqi didn't answer his question immediately, she hadn't thought about it for a long time, she might have been afraid before, but now, she was really not afraid.

Since Xuan Chi is willing to take that step and open his heart to her, what else is she afraid of?

What we want is not his protection, but to stand by his side, share the joys and sorrows with him, and face the wind and rain together.

Although she didn't speak, he saw the firmness and faith in her eyes, and his heart was slightly pinched, but she was also helpless, she was very desperate for that man.

But I don't know, can Chu Xuanchi also respond with the same true feelings?

"What if I lose?" he asked.

"If you lose, you won't be able to choose such a person as Princess Xuan in this competition. ”

Mu Chu paused, suddenly reached out and grabbed her shoulder, and his tone became solemn for no reason: "Why are you so sure?"

If she loses, she can't become Princess Xuan, and neither can Tuoba Feiya and Tanglin Qingge? Who gave her so much confidence? Who made her believe that Chu Xuanchi would only want her alone?

Those two women, Xuan Wang Ye chooses one at random, it will be beneficial and harmless for him to expand his power in the future, does she know the meaning behind choosing one of them?

Why did she say such a thing?

"Ah Chu, it hurts so much that you scratched me. Qiqi frowned, but didn't push it away, just looked up at him, unable to see who he was excited for at this moment.

He has too many secrets in his heart, and as her friend, she respects him so she never takes the initiative to find out, but there is always a little curiosity.

Why is he like this?

Facing her painful gaze, Mu Chuhuo came back to his senses, slowly let go of his hand, and continued to walk forward.

Qiqi walked beside him, he didn't speak, and she didn't say much.

After nothing more along the way, Mu Chu refused to let Qiqi treat him and went back to the East Chamber directly.

Those who can heal don't heal themselves, Qiqi wants to help him, but he doesn't want to, so she doesn't force it.

After returning to the dormitory, he changed into a light tulle skirt, washed his face with water, slipped out of the backyard along the familiar road, crept to the high wall, and turned over neatly.

In fact, he knew that she would sneak out from time to time, but she never cared in the past.

Now, she suddenly wanted to see who was waiting for her beyond the high wall, but she seemed to know it.

The people of the Xuan Wangye...... Apart from his people, who else would dare to pick up the Seventh Princess in the middle of the night?

Didn't you pay too little attention to her in the past? It turned out that she and Xuan Wang Ye had already had so many intersections......

"Young Master, you helped Murong Qiqi tonight. Tie Sheng stood behind him, watching with him as Qiqi climbed out of the high wall in the distance.

Seeing the carriage disappear from sight, he looked at the master sitting quietly on the roof, and a complicated light flashed in his eyes.

He wasn't blaming the master, and he wasn't qualified, but what the master did tonight really made him very uneasy.

Murong Qiqi's influence on him has reached this point, and he has to guard against it!

"The young master will know about tonight's events, and if the young master still insists on going his own way, the lord will definitely take action. ”

"Just like treating Chu Jiangnan?" Mu Chu's gaze was still locked on that side, unable to take it back for a long time.

Tie Sheng's heart was shocked, and he suddenly felt a little uneasy, "Young master, you ...... How do you ......"

"How much do you think he did, I don't know?" his fingertips gently stroked the saxophone, his voice was very soft, but it obviously hid a murderous aura that others did not dare to ignore: "I can ignore the matter of Chu Jiangnan, Murong Qiqi's matter, you better not interfere, there will be no next time for my warning." ”

He will come by invitation, naturally not really to treat Lord Nan, but since this matter has already begun, he will cure him wholeheartedly.

Whether Chu Jiangnan's life can be saved until the day he uses the knife for him is Chu Jiangnan's own business, but as long as he lives, he will treat him.

As for Qiqi...... Since he handed this matter to him, even if he wants to deal with her, he can only use his own way.

Whoever dares to attack her before him will die!
