Deng Xiaoxian was speechless by Qiao Mingyue, and what was even more hateful was that he felt that what Qiao Mingyue said was quite reasonable, but his pride and dignity made it impossible for him to admit his mistakes in front of so many people.

Thinking of this, Deng Xiaoxian glared at Qiao Mingyue viciously, he used to think she was a fairy, but unfortunately her eyes were not very good, and her brain was not very good, so he actually fell in love with Qi Jingyun!

Deng Xiaoxian sulked on the side, but Qiao Mingyue and Qi Jingyun ignored him. Qiao Mingyue had no intention of wasting time on Deng Xiaoxian, she was thinking about how to deal with the emperor's order and get him to agree to Qi Jingyun to be a proton. And Qi Jingyun was immersed in Qiao Mingyue's maintenance of him in every way, he was a thick-skinned person and had never paid much attention to other people's opinions, except for the people he cared about, there was the imperial grandmother in front, and then it was Qiao Mingyue. Listening to Qiao Mingyue's words just now, he secretly made up his mind that he would not let her suffer the slightest grievance in the future.

Princess Zhu Ya couldn't help but feel a little better when she saw that Deng Xiaoxian was also defeated by Qiao Mingyue.

"Qi Jingyun, don't be complacent, wait until you get to Nanzhao, see how I clean you up!" Deng Xiaoxian looked at Qi Jingyun's spring heart, and his heart was even more angry.

"I heard that there are many talented people in Da Zhou, and there are not a few sons who are both civil and military, and it just so happens that I, Deng, have also practiced martial arts for a few years, so it is better for us to learn from each other." Although he said this, Deng Xiaoxian's eyes frequently looked at Qi Jingyun, but the latter didn't seem to notice his provocation at all, drank wine by himself, and said a few words to Qiao Mingyue from time to time.

Seeing that Qi Jingyun didn't react, and everyone didn't move, when had Deng Xiaoxian been snubbed like this, he laughed angrily and said, "What? Didn't anyone dare to fight? It seems that any young talent is nothing more than that! ”

Deng Xiaoxian was so humiliated, and the emperor's face was already gloomy and terrible.

This may be an opportunity, an opportunity for the emperor to take it seriously.

"I'm coming!"

Qiao Mingyue looked up and saw that it was the young man who had just spoken for the palace maid.

The boy is the son of Lord Ye of Shaoqing of Dali Temple, who has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and is also a leader among the younger generation. But facing Deng Xiaoxian, Qiao Mingyue smiled and shook her head.

Deng Xiaoxian hooked his lips and smiled, but his eyes were cold, and finally someone came out for him to vent.

The young man was also nervous at the moment, he had just lost face in front of everyone, he didn't intend to respond to Deng Xiaoxian's provocation, but his father secretly ordered, coupled with Deng Xiaoxian's arrogant and disdainful attitude, which also made him a little angry, and he came up impulsively. However, since he was already on the field, he couldn't back down, not to mention, he saw the appreciation in the emperor's eyes.

Without waiting for the teenager to react, Deng Xiaoxian instantly put away his attitude and attacked the boy, the boy didn't expect him to shoot directly, and he panicked for a while, but he reacted very quickly, and immediately dodged, which was able to avoid Deng Xiaoxian's attack.

Because it was just a contest, both of them were barefoot and empty-fisted, and they would not endanger their lives.

Although the young man reacted quickly, it was really not enough in Deng Xiaoxian's hands, and the young man's repeated attacks were all avoided by Deng Xiaoxian, but he didn't fight back for a long time, just blindly dodged. All the people who knew martial arts at the scene could see that Deng Xiaoxian was teasing him, but the young man obviously didn't realize this, he thought that Deng Xiaoxian was beaten by him.

When Qi Jingyun saw this scene, he silently counted down in his heart, three, two, one.

The young man punched Deng Xiaoxian's face, but Deng Xiaoxian grabbed his wrist with one hand and slammed into his lower plate, and the young man fell to the ground in an instant, struggling for a long time without getting up.

The audience was silent, except for the faint groans of the boy falling to the ground.

"Anything else?" Deng Xiaoxian casually stroked the long hair hanging down his ears.

The boy's defeat angered the sons of several other ministers, and they took turns to compete with Deng Xiaoxian, but without exception, all of them were repelled by Deng Xiaoxian within three rounds.

Only then did the son of the Ye family know that his complacent attitude just now was a big joke.

After venting, Deng Xiaoxian's mood was much better, but the person he wanted to beat the most had not yet appeared.

Wang Shangshu noticed Deng Xiaoxian's gaze.

"Having said that, the son with the highest martial arts in the capital is His Royal Highness King Jin, won't His Royal Highness King Jin try it?" He touched his beard and said ill-intentionedly.

Qi Jingyun was suddenly named, but there was no surprise, he knew that Deng Xiaoxian's purpose had always been him, but he just didn't want to do what he wanted.

"What did Wang Shangshu say? Who in this capital doesn't know that this king is a gentleman who doesn't learn and has no skills, how high my martial arts can be, Wang Shangshu really exalted me. ”

The corners of everyone's mouths twitched, and it was the first time they had seen such a reasonable person who admitted that he was a waste material.

Wang Shangshu was choked for a moment, and then said, "Could it be that His Royal Highness King Jin has admitted defeat?" Although the previous sons were still young and lost, they dared to challenge, and they couldn't imagine that His Royal Highness King Jin was not as good as a few teenage children! ”

There was a lot of talking.

Qi Jingyun turned a deaf ear to everyone's ridicule, he said casually: "Wang Shangshu, it's voluntary not to play this time, of course I won't ask for hardships if I don't have the same skills, look at what Wang Shangshu said, it's better for Wang Shangshu to go up and compete in person, even if you can't win, you can set an example for us juniors, isn't it?" ”

Wang Shangshu didn't expect him to be so brazen, how could he, a literati, compete with people who practice martial arts!

Qi Jingyun's behavior also made everyone think that he was indeed inferior to Deng Xiaoxian, and he was self-aware so that he was unwilling to be embarrassed. And only a few old ministers shook their heads secretly, others didn't know, but they were convinced of the young prince's martial arts, that year......

"Dog Emperor! Take your life! ”

Suddenly, a sharp blade struck the emperor, and in an instant, several killers dressed as eunuchs jumped out and slashed at the ministers and family members at the banquet.

Qi Jingyun and Qiao Mingyue's seats were not far from the emperor, and Qiao Mingyue ran towards the emperor immediately when she saw someone assassinating.

The Emperor must not die!

"Lady? Wife! Qi Jingyun was dealing with the assassin on the one hand, but on the other hand, he saw Qiao Mingyue going in the direction of the emperor. Seeing that the few guards around the Assassin Emperor could no longer resist, and the Emperor would be killed by the Assassin immediately, Qiao Mingyue was about to make a move, but saw a purple figure flash in front of him.

In just a moment, the assassin who attacked the emperor was killed by Qi Jingyun with a sword. After ensuring the safety of the emperor, Qi Jingyun immediately took his sword and plunged into the battle behind him, and after a while, most of the assassins were already dead and wounded.

At this time, the remaining Assassins had all been taken down by the Royal Forest Army who had come to their rescue.

The emperor was in shock, and the originally lively banquet was now full of casualties and miserable.
