Chapter 69: Grab the pastry
Just when the two were discussing, the people in the field had already begun to act, only to see Ji Yuguo's two people quickly retreat, avoiding the crowd from a distance, and Xuan Yue also slowly retreated, leaving only the five-person team and the three-person team in the middle of the field to look at each other.
One person walked out of the country: "Ladies and gentlemen of the Suju Kingdom, before coming to the imperial capital, the head of my family said that if we are opposed to the Suju Kingdom, we will help you eliminate others, and our people also helped you in yesterday's game, a few of you still remember." ”
Su Juguo walked out and nodded: "You Ren Guo is notoriously cunning, what do you ask for to help us like this?" ”
Ren Guoren shook his head: "This time, we Ren Guo will not make any requests, we just ask Suju Country to remember that we helped you this time, and if we encounter any problems in the future, I hope that Suju Country can help more." ”
The people of Suju Province looked left and right, and several companions all nodded, "Okay, we agree to your request." ”
Ren Guoren smiled: "Since your country has agreed to this little thing, then we can't help but express some sincerity and do it!"
The people of Suju Kingdom immediately became vigilant, and the five of them stood back to back, looking at the people in front of them vigilantly, but there was no attack, but Xuanyue in the distance slowly fell to the ground.
Although Qingfeng Lan couldn't hear the conversation of the eight people, it was certain that they had definitely reached some kind of cooperation, and Ji Yuguoren, who had retreated, slowly touched Xuanyue.
Just after Xuanyue fell, the five people of Ren Guo and Ji Yuguo raised their hands in surrender.
Something flickered in Qingfeng's eyes, and Tong Yao also sighed: "It seems that this time the five kingdoms came to the imperial capital at the same time, it must be Ji Yuguo's conspiracy." ”
Qingfeng Lan shook his head: "Not necessarily, although Ji Yu has many advisers, but after all, it is still a small country, if they lead the five countries to enter the imperial capital this time, no matter which side fails, they are all in a catastrophe, there must be other people here who are controlling all this." ”
Just when Qingfeng Lan and Tong Yao were also analyzing the current situation, Wang Xue stood up and coldly spit out two words: "Kill whom!"
Qingfeng Lan hurriedly pressed Wang Xue back to his seat and whispered: "Big brother, don't worry, wait until I think clearly that you will kill people, now do a good job first, and see what happens next." ”
There were only five people left in the field, and the five stood together and discussed for a moment, and all four of them raised their hands to admit defeat.
In the end, the retest ended in this inexplicable way, and it was expected to be three hearty battles. But except for the first battle, which was considered to be a battle, there was no major friction in the other two, and it was over after just standing for a while.
Lan Yun glanced at the people in the field and said a little unangry: "The third game, the winner, Su Juguo, Ding Yi!"
Taking a step back slowly, Lan Yun said a few words to the people behind him and then walked to the front of the high platform again: "Next, the written test will be conducted, please come forward for the top three." ”
Qingfeng Lan glanced at Ding Yi in the field, and felt a little unhappy in his heart, he originally planned to take the written test by himself, but he didn't expect to be mixed in with a person from the mission, it seems that this guy has a little ink in his stomach, and it will be difficult to do it now.
Wang Xue followed Qingfeng Lan to Ding Yi and stood beside him.
Lan Yun glanced at Qingfeng, although he was unwilling, he still spoke: "You can challenge at will next, who are you going to challenge?"
Qingfeng Lan thought that there was no challenge, but I didn't expect that there would be a challenge? ”
Before Qingfeng Lan finished speaking, Ding Yi next to him spoke: "I admit defeat in the challenge!"
When Lan Yun said that there was a challenge, everyone thought that there would be a big battle, but they didn't expect Ding Yi to admit defeat so simply.
Lan Yun asked in disbelief, "Are you sure?"
Ding Yi smiled and said, "I'm sure, what's more, I can't beat Brother Qingfeng." ”
Lan Yun glanced at Qingfeng Lan, and then at Wang Xue next to him, "Who are you going to challenge?"
Qingfeng Lan hurriedly whispered and begged for mercy: "Big brother, please, I lose this time, let's make an appointment next time, please." ”
Before Wang Xue could speak, the seven stars on the high platform jumped up and pointed at Qingfenglan: "Challenge him, challenge him, challenge him." ”
Wang Xue slowly raised his head and looked at Qixing, and stretched out his hand to point at Qixing: "He!"
Qixing saw Wang Xue's movements and thought about it, so he hid directly in the tulle in fright, Lan Yun looked at Qixing and then at Wang Xue: "You can't challenge people outside the field, you can only challenge Qingfeng Lan now, do you want to challenge?"
Wang Xue slowly looked at Qingfeng Lan.
Qingfeng Lan begged for mercy with words written on his face, and Wang Xue said coldly: "Admit defeat!"
After saying that, he turned around and left, not taking Lan Yun in his eyes at all.
Lan Yun was so angry that he almost jumped down and fought with Wang Xue.
In the end, he held back the anger in his heart and said fiercely: "Since only Qingfeng Lan won alone, the final winner of this competition is Qingfeng Lan." The top three winners will enter the palace tonight to receive their rewards. The competition is officially over. After finishing speaking, he glared at Wang Xue's back fiercely.
Qingfeng Lan looked at Lan Yun, then at Wang Xue, and shook his head: "Hey, one heart is higher than the sky, and the other has no one in his eyes, you are really alike." ”
Qingfeng Lan returned to the three of them, and at this time, Xuan Yue had already woken up, looking at Qingfeng Lan's face full of guilt.
Qingfeng Lan patted him on the shoulder: "You still have a long way to go, come on." ”
After speaking, he walked out with the three of them.
The four of them had just walked to the door of the martial arts arena, and Wu Shuo hurriedly greeted them: "Congratulations to the little brother Qingfeng Lan for winning the first place in this competition!"
Qingfeng Lan glanced around and whispered, "Master Wu, there are so many people, you still have to pay attention." ”
Wu Shuo whispered back: "Not many people know about the strange beast, but most people already know about saving Tian'er, and now I won't come to congratulate it to attract attention." ”
Qingfeng Lan thought for a moment and nodded slowly: "Thank you, Lord Wu." ”
When the two were chatting, Xuan Hengzhi walked over: "Congratulations to Brother Qingfeng for winning the first place in this "competition"!"
There was a slight unsharpening in Xuan Heng's eyes, and he deliberately said the word "competition" again.
Qingfeng Lan hurriedly greeted him and bowed: "Thank you" Xuan "Lord!"
Xuan Hengzhi heard Qingfeng Lan reread the word Xuan, and his face turned even blue: "At tonight's dinner, please come early." ”
Qingfeng Lan looked at Xuan Hengzhi with a smile: "Definitely!"
Xuan Heng flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.
Wu Shuo stepped forward and asked curiously, "What's wrong with Old Xuan Immortal today?"
Qingfeng shrugged: "I don't know, maybe it's because of the disharmony." ”
Wu Shuo turned his head and glanced at Xuanyue not far away, and then looked at Qing Fenglan, this guy is really a calf protector, people don't want a son, this is also to take advantage of verbally.
Qingfeng Lan watched Xuan Hengzhi walk away, turned around and asked, "Will Master Wu go to the dinner tonight?"
Wu Shuo nodded: "Yes, tonight is a reward for the top three, but in fact, we have to knock and knock these five countries to make them, so as not to disturb the border." ”
Qing Fenglan asked with some curiosity, "Turbulent borders?"
Wu Shuo glanced left and right, and whispered: "This time the five countries came at the same time, all with hostility, I heard that Ji Yuguo's people found an ancient treasure, what it is is not clear now, but I heard that this thing can subvert a country, so this time I united several other small countries to come to the imperial capital, just to rely on the treasure in my hand to ask for some benefits." ”
Qingfeng thought for a moment: "If there is really this treasure, then they have already been overwhelmed by the army, why do they still come to compete with us?"
Wu Shuo shook his head: "I don't know very well, Your Majesty suddenly summoned me the night before yesterday and ordered me to escort the five countries missions back after attending tonight's dinner. ”
Qingfeng Lan nodded, smiled and said, "Master Wu, at today's dinner, can you bring Yao Ye and Xuan Yue into the palace together?"
Wu Shuo thought for a moment: "You can bring it, but you don't have a seat, you can only stand." ”
Qingfeng smiled and said, "It's okay, bringing them into the palace tonight is actually to let them know the Ninth Princess, and there is nothing else." ”
Wu Shuo nodded: "Okay, I'll wait for you at the gate of the Imperial City later." ”
After saying that, he left with a group of people.
Tong Yao also saw Wu Shuo leaving, and hurriedly stepped forward to grab Qingfeng Lan and asked, "Why did you take me into the palace?" I'm not sure if I can control the beast spirit in my body, if I suddenly lose control, what will you do?"
Qingfeng Lan gently patted his hand: "It's okay, I believe in you, even if you lose control in the imperial city, like you said, there are seven stars, there is me, there is the second brother, and that Lan Yun." ”
Tong Yao also looked a little heavy: "But... ”
Qingfeng Lan squeezed "his" hand hard: "Don't worry, you have to have information about yourself, since you have completely absorbed it, then you have the ability to control it, and the attack on the Feng Clan recorded in the ancient books was just an attack, and it didn't say what it was for, maybe we were all wrong, the beast didn't rely on instinct to attack the Feng Clan, but accepted some kind of order." ”
Tong Yao was also about to say something, when Wang Xue beside him floated coldly: "Believe him!"
After speaking, he followed Qingfeng Lan and left, leaving Tong Yao to stand alone.
After thinking about it for a long time, Tong Yao also looked at Qingfenglan's back, her heart warmed, and she followed with a smile, and while walking, her figure changed, and when she walked to Qingfenglan's side, she had changed back into her daughter's body, but she didn't know if that face was hers.
The four of Qingfeng Lan did not go home, but came to Chen Hong's mansion.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw Chen Junyi being tied up and trapped on the pillar, Qingfeng Lan and the others looked confused, if they didn't know that this was Chen's mansion, I am afraid that several people would have to take out weapons to save people.
Zhou Nianning heard that Qingfeng Lan was coming, and hurriedly walked out of the backyard, and when she came out, she saw Qingfeng Lan and the others looking at Chen Junyi who was tied to the pillar in amazement, and hurriedly asked her subordinates to put Chen Junyi down.
After Chen Junyi was let go, she hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Qingfeng Lan and asked eagerly: "How about the competition? Who won? Ah Feng won't marry any groundhog." ”
Qingfeng Lan was embarrassed and wanted Zhou Nianning to ask for help.
Zhou Nianning stepped forward, pulled Chen Junyi away and glared at him fiercely: "Let you see the smile." ”
Qingfeng Lan laughed awkwardly: "It's okay, it's okay." ”
Chen Junyi sat on the ground and muttered with tears in the corners of her eyes: "It's over, Ah Feng is going to marry a groundhog." ”
Zhou Nianning glanced at Chen Junyi's appearance, shook her head and asked, "I prepared some snacks for the first place." ”
When Chen Junyi heard the first place, he bounced up directly from the ground, looked at the four people in front of him, and finally stopped his gaze on Wang Xue's face, with a curious expression: "Where are you from?"
Wang Xue didn't pay attention to her at all.
Qingfeng Lan asked with some curiosity: "Aunt Zhou, how did you know that there was the first place in the competition among us?"
Zhou Nianning covered her mouth and smiled: "I not only know that there is the first place among you, I also know that you are the first place." ”
Qingfeng thought for a moment and nodded slowly: "I didn't expect Aunt Zhou to be so well-informed in this deep mansion compound." ”
Zhou Nianning shook his head: "I'm a woman, where can I talk about being well-informed, I'm just guessing." ”
Qingfeng was stunned in place, just by guessing, he could know that he had won the first place, I am afraid that this is too much more than the women's family.
Looking at the shock on Qingfenglan's face, Zhou Nianning smiled and said: "This is not a difficult thing to guess, the Ninth Princess should be regarded as His Majesty's favorite daughter, whether it is the Five Nations Mission or the Hundred Nations Mission this time, if Your Majesty is unwilling, no one can marry the Ninth Princess." ”
Qingfeng was stunned for a moment, remembering the armor he got, and then there were those people who reminded him inexplicably, it seems that these people are His Majesty's people, and he glanced back at Wang Xue beside him, could it be that even the people in the mission were bought by His Majesty?
There are so many mysteries in this that I always feel that things will not be so simple, but I have never understood what role these people play.
Zhou Nianning frowned when she saw Qingfeng: "Don't stand at the door, let's go back and eat something." ”
After speaking, he led everyone towards the inner courtyard.
As soon as everyone entered the room, they saw a table full of delicious pastries, even Wang Xue, who had never been smiling, was a little moved.
Qing Fenglan was not in a hurry to compete with a few other people for pastries, but sat on the side and quietly thought about the various details of this competition.
didn't think for long, Zhou Nianning walked over: "Don't think about it, there are too many things in this, don't talk about you, Junyi and her father may not be able to figure out the things in it, and when you really enter the imperial city, you will know more." ”
Qingfeng Lan nodded slowly: "Then what do you think of the Ninth Princess?"
Zhou Nianning looked at Qingfeng Lan curiously, she didn't think that Qingfeng Lan would ask this question, so she briefly sorted out her thoughts and said: "The identity of the ninth princess has probably been determined, then there are not a few people in this imperial capital who are willing to work for her, but for her, it may not be good news, there are many people who are willing to work for her, and there will be more people who want to kill her." ”
Qingfeng thought for a moment and asked, "Do you know what her mother did, how could so many people want to get rid of her?"
Zhou Nianning shook her head: "I don't know, a lot of things happened at that time, and in order to protect the Chen family, our family was not involved in that incident." ”
Qingfeng Lan looked at Zhou Nianning's somewhat sad eyes, sighed slightly, got up and saluted, walked to the table and started to compete with a few other people for pastries.
