Mei Niang slowly got off the stage and walked to Xu Hui's side. As soon as he sat down, he saw a little father-in-law walking forward with a box.

Mei Niang was rewarded, and was pulled by Xu Hui to the small hall behind the stage, so she recoiled her hair, and took out the exquisite crested jade hairpin to set her hair in a bun.

Mei Niang sighed: "I can't imagine that today is fresh, learn Tao Gong's natural pretentiousness, and replace hairpins with flowers, but it arouses the jealousy of others...... Is. If human life is like this, it is to drink a sip of water, and it is cold to get sick. ”

Xu Hui smiled and said, "You! I just like to look at everything in the worst. Why don't you want to think that although you are jealous of everyone, it also shows that Your Majesty loves you very much! ”

"Loving?" Mei Niang smiled faintly: "Your Majesty's love is like drinking water, and you know how warm and cold you are...... Let's go back quickly! I'm upset enough today, but I don't have the spirit to entangle with those jealous women. ”

"Okay, okay, I'm really bitter for you today, okay? In this way, what about you, if you are obedient today, and sit under this phoenix stage to accompany Hui'er to watch this competition, then Hui'er will make the best crab roe Biluo tonight and eat with you. How is it? ”

Hearing such a good thing, Mei Niang was not angry, smiled and nodded, and accompanied her into the venue.

……

As soon as they entered, Taizong saw the two of them and ordered them to sit down next to Yang Shufei.

Order, sit. Mei Niang realized that Ji Wang Shen's opponent on the stage was actually Yue Wang Zhen from Concubine Yan, and she was very cold, so she asked Ruian softly.

Ryan smiled:

"This King Jiang has not been virtuous since he was a child. Fang just went to the stage, but he didn't even hit King Ji a few times. I couldn't lose face for a while, and I even made a crooked move to pretend to be painful, and when I came to see Wang Ye Ji, I wanted to sweep Wang Ye Ji's arm with one move. It's a pity, although this Ji Wang Ye is young, he is also a master with good swordsmanship, so he naturally blocked it in three or two clicks, and knocked him down in turn. The Lord has not loved this King Jiang since he was a child, especially today's thing, but it reminded the Lord of how much our Jin prince was bullied by him and almost injured, and he hated him in his heart, so he scolded him and asked his mother Wang to lead him back and think about it behind closed doors. ”

Mei Niangqi said: "You said he hurt the childish slave? What's going on? ”

Ryan was about to answer, but he heard Concubine Shu laugh and said, "This matter was when they were children." It's not surprising that martial artists don't know. So in Mei Niang's surprised gaze, she told the cause and effect again, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, the name of Yang Shufei back then was Yuwan, and she was still the cousin of the mother's family in this palace. It's a pity that he was not right, and he almost hurt the young slave, so His Majesty was very displeased, so after he gave birth to Fu'er, he surrendered her to Jieyu.

Alas, it's a pity that she didn't know how to repent, and cursed the queen mother day by day, and His Majesty was angry, and someone gave her death, and she was buried without a posthumous seal. ”

Xu Hui was surprised when he heard this:

"Niangniang, Hui'er listened to you say this, why is this posthumous matter a necessary honor?"

"Isn't it? Your Majesty is merciful, no matter how big the mistake is in life, there will be posthumous seals after death. If there is no mistake in life, then the posthumous seal after death is even more glorious. Like her, she really went too far, and His Majesty didn't even posthumously seal it...... I want to hate her too much. ”

Mei Niang nodded and said, "Today, I was taught by Niangniang, I was really taught." ”

Speaking of this, Mei Niang said: "It's strange to say, this King Zhao (Li Fu) has such a mother, but Mei Niang sees that she is an excellent child on weekdays, and she is gentle and polite." Mei Niang looked at the ladies and majesty of the palaces, except for the young slaves, he was the one who loved him the most. ”

"That's because he has a good mother to take care of him now." Yang Shufei said with a smile.

Mei Niang understood and said, "But Concubine Xian? Indeed, this virtuous concubine is gentle and gentle, and she is a good mother. His Majesty's handing over King Zhao to her can be regarded as a worthy place. ”

Yang Shufei nodded with a smile and said:

"Don't look at Sister Xian's sister, she doesn't talk much on weekdays, and she rarely interacts with other palaces in the palace, but she can deal with people, but she is the most upright. It's really warm but not cowardly, soft but not weak. ”

Warm but not cowardly, soft but not weak?

Mei Niang was savoring the meaning of these words, and she heard the applause from the audience.

But it turned out that King Ji lost to King Yue because of his young age and lack of skill. The audience applauded, and even Concubine Yan, who rarely saw a smile, nodded in approval.

Although Mei Niang knew that this Concubine Yan was her aunt in terms of seniority, she was her aunt, but because of the bad relationship with her mother, and later Xiao Qiang was so arrogant, she ended up with Taizong's dislike, so she never interacted with her, one to avoid suspicion, and the other was lazy.

Now that I see that this Concubine Yan Xian is such a gentle and gentle character, I am also a little close to my heart. However, after all, he still did not come forward to answer.

Just turned his head to look at the top of the phoenix platform.

The king of Yue is well-educated, although he is victorious, he does not have the slightest pride, on the other hand, King Ji is dissatisfied, and he has a dark hatred.

Mei Niang knew in her heart that this was not too serious.

Shaking his head and sighing, he heard Taizong say: "Although Shen'er lost, it is actually rare, after all, the opponent is old and too strong, good." As for Zhen'er, your swordsmanship is not a little worse than your third brother, but it is too straightforward. blindly seeks to be the enemy head-on, completely unaware that he has fallen into the plan of Shen'er. But your sword skills are strong, but it's also rare. ”

A comment, to the point, two kneeling, bow.

When the two kings had gone down, they went away from each of them in search of his mother. Mei Niang looked at it, and saw that King Na Ji was cheering for his mother all the way, so she threw herself into the arms of Wei Guifei, who was waiting for him to come down with a smile, and deliberately made a hard look to make her mother feel distressed. Mei Niang didn't like this child to be too arrogant.

On the other hand, King Yue, walked down slowly, calmly to the side of his mother Yan, ashamed to say that he had something unexpected in learning art, and was comforted by his mother, although he also showed a childish innocence, but there was nothing inappropriate. Mei Niang knew that this King Yue was a good boy who was loyal and honest.

When she nodded secretly, she was noticed by Xu Hui, so she smiled and asked what she was doing?

Mei Niang looked left and right, and whispered what she observed to her, Xu Hui nodded and agreed:

"Isn't it? When I accompany His Majesty every day, I have also heard him say this, although King Daoji is talented, he is actually extremely cunning, and his heart is a little unbearable, especially he prefers those divination techniques, so His Majesty does not like it. is the king of Yue, although his wisdom is mediocre, but he is a loyal gentleman. That's why His Majesty prefers more. ”

"This preference is not preference, but I am afraid that it is also related to the mother. Although the concubine is the first of the four concubines, having such a Wei Zhaorong is there, which is equivalent to adding a lot of humiliation to her mother's family. Therefore, no matter how good it is, it cannot be favored by His Majesty. On the other hand, Concubine Yan is a heavy person, and she holds the golden mean and does not celebrate holidays with others. Your Majesty loves it, and it's normal. I'm afraid that this Concubine Yan will have to go up a few steps in the future! ”

Mei Niang said quietly.

Hearing that she made such a bold prediction, Xu Hui was so shocked that he pulled her clothes at that time. Luckily, no one heard it, so that's fine.

Next, it was Qi Wangyou, the fifth son of Concubine Yin De, who came to power.

Mei Niang has never heard that this King Qi is ridiculous, but when she sees it today, she is also a handsome young man. It's just that there is always some perverseness on his face, and he doesn't look like the dragon grandson emperor. He sneered and said to Xu Hui:

"This King of Qi always loves to be arrogant on weekdays, but I don't know who he is looking for as an opponent this time?"

As soon as the words fell, I saw Qi Wangyou looking left and right, kneeling down and playing:

"Erchen, please play, you are allowed to take the ninth brother as the enemy!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked. Even his biological mother, Concubine Yin De, was stunned:

He wants to be the enemy of King Jin?!

When Taizong heard that he wanted to take the young slave as his enemy, he knew that he intended to rely on his old age, and he studied swordsmanship for a long time, and intended to take the young slave who was not good at swordsmanship and martial arts among the kings as his opponent, so that he could win. I don't like it.

When Concubine Yin De saw that her son was so reckless, she actually recruited the most doted on the young slave of Taizong, and she was worried in her heart, and she knew that her son was trying to win, and she was even more distressed in her heart. However, the son's words had already come out, and he couldn't persuade him to take it back, so he had to shake his head and sigh.

The young slave heard that he wanted to take himself as an enemy, and although he knew the meaning of the fifth brother, he didn't feel much - anyway, for him, it was meaningless to win or lose in sword art. smiled and said, "Then thank you for the advice of the fifth brother!" ”

As he spoke, he raised his sword to De'an, and came up with a smile.

Others, including Mei Niang Xu Hui, are all dissatisfied with the childish slave: this King of Qi clearly intends to bully the weak with the strong, and he is really contemptible to be such a person!

Therefore, there was a lot of discussion in the audience.

On the phoenix platform, Li You could hear these words, but he didn't seem to have heard them at all. Only he knew best why he had to pick this little brother to compete with the sword.

Although he also had the intention of winning, the most important thing was that he heard that at last year's domestic court meeting, this little brother, who was usually the most jealous of himself, actually won the praise of his father and the emperor with some showmanship, and became famous in the world.

How can he swallow this breath? It must be known that this boy's sacrificial dance, if it weren't for the partiality of his father and the emperor to return to the fiefdom in advance, it would no longer be the turn of this young slave, after all, the young and the young are orderly. and later on the feast of the Que Lou, the matter of overthrowing the envoys of the Wa State with ingenuity made the Wa Kingdom only know that Taizong has a prince Chengqian, and there is a ninth son Li Zhi, but they don't know the other brothers......

Hum! The father's partiality is too much! If he had been willing to keep him Li You in Beijing, he would have done better than this useless boy!

-- This King of Qi completely forgot that last year's domestic court meeting was only held after he returned to the fiefdom for three months, and it was only because there were overseas dynasties that Taizong was approved. It really can't be said that Taizong was biased and deliberately sent him out of Beijing.

Second, he is not a concubine of the main palace, he is a young slave, and his mother's status is not inferior, but according to the requirements of the ancient rituals that need to be born of the main palace, he is not a suitable candidate.

Thirdly, and finally, if we talk about the art of hunting, he is famous all over the world, but he has never touched this chess game since he was born - but he has heard that the young slave can win just by memorizing the chess game, and he thinks that he can do it.

In fact, it is not surprising that King Qi is like this. Speaking of which, his uncle was always worried about his identity as the descendant of the Yin World Master, so he always reminded King Qi to pay attention to it. Completely forgetting that King Qi was the son of Taizong, and even his Yin Hongzhi had not been killed, how could King Qi end up as he imagined?

Therefore, with the heart of a villain, the belly of a gentleman has its own calamity.

Let's not mention these first, just say that the king of Qi saw that everyone showed disdain for what he had done, and he was angry in his heart, so he watched the young slave come to power, and without waiting for him to stand firm, he shouted loudly and stepped forward with his sword. As soon as the move is bright, it is a killer.

Everyone watched the tip of the sword come straight to the neck of the young slave, and they all exclaimed in unison. Taizong was about to drink angrily, but after thinking about it, he finally endured it.

Just grabbed the handle of the dragon chair with both hands, and the green tendons burst out.

Mei Niang was worried, and when she heard Concubine Yin De exclaim her son's name, she said angrily: "Now let's remind again, what's the point?" ”

Xu Hui knew that she cared about the childish slave, and also hated: "This King of Qi is inevitably too ruthless." King Jin is so gentle, and everyone knows that he is not good at swordsmanship, he also wants to be like this, it's too much! ”

Ryan next to him saw that his eyes were red, and he couldn't wait to step forward to fight for the old master.

The young slave on the stage saw that Li You was so ruthless as soon as he came up, and he was shocked, and hurriedly swung his sword to fight - fortunately, he recently found a new swordsmanship master, and he was able to teach him two good tricks, and under one block, he actually succeeded.

I was overjoyed, and I wanted to talk to Li You.

Who knew that Li You saw that he actually blocked his own killing move, and he was even more annoyed, and he was ruthless in his shots, blindly only attacking the vital points, and occasionally there were three ways to come out.

Taizong in the audience saw this, and couldn't help but shout angrily: "Who is You'er's master?!" ”

Among King Qi's entourage, a long-faced man went out and knelt: "Yan Hongliang has seen Your Majesty." ”

Taizong squinted at him for a while before he gave the order: "Someone!" Drag it out! Fifty rods! Expelled from the palace and never used again! ”

Left and right, Yan Hongliang was shocked and didn't know, and shouted wronged.

Taizong said angrily: "Wronged? Like you, who taught my son badly, that he should use his dangerous nature as a wise plan, I have shown you mercy before I kill you! Do you dare to shout injustice here?! ”

When Yan Hongliang heard this, he bowed his head and was silent.
