Chapter 168: Each Defeat 1
The results of the calligraphy and painting competition were announced by the old lady when the young ladies gathered the next day. Many young ladies look at the Baiwangfu sisters in a completely different way. There is envy, there is jealousy, there is resentment, there is hatred. These poplars didn't care, and it was also expected by her. Bai Wan'er couldn't stand it anymore.
"Sister, what do they mean? I don't have the ability to hate us. If looking at people can see people to death, it is estimated that we have all been pierced with a few holes. ”
"Sister Wan'er, can you be more mature. Don't you understand the principle that the gun shoots the first bird? The top three are the inexhaustible wealth of this life, and now our score is far ahead. It's normal for them to be jealous, envious, and hateful. Today is the last martial arts competition. You're prepared. ”
"Sister, what else are you going to prepare? Prepare for zero points. Horseback archery, how many ladies can do it? Real knives and real guns, and they don't scare us to death. We will not be able to detoxify the poison. However, the martial arts competition also requires all the ladies to participate. Isn't that embarrassing? ”
"The rules of the competition haven't been said yet, how does Miss Bai Er know that she will embarrass you? Today is the final competition of the finals. It is also the only event in the final that is not intended for show. Now Mama Ben will tell you about the content rules of the competition. Those who have the guts to participate have points, and those who abstain get 0 points.
The ladies are all beautiful girls, and they may not even have seen real swords and swords on weekdays. The final one of the finals will test your courage and resilience. The judging panel will assign you the questions that are suitable for you based on your information. One, I will never embarrass you. Second, there is no danger either. Third, you have the right not to participate, of course, if you don't participate, you will not get points.
"The first contest is to test your mettle. The second part of the competition is to test your resilience. The third content of the competition is the competition for the top three and top ten young ladies are eligible to participate. After the second competition, the top 20 of your total scores will be added up to participate in the third competition. Frankly speaking, the third test is that there is a certain danger. Now you should think about whether you want to participate in the final competition. ”
"Mama, what is the test of our courage? What tests our ability to adapt more than anything? We should know that now. A young lady asked.
"Miss, Mama, what I said now is to leak the test questions. The young lady who participates or does not participate casually and walks into the finals has stepped into the threshold of wealth. Even if you don't want to have a better future, it's understandable. If Mama Ben comes back after a stick of incense, and the young lady who remains here will be deemed to have agreed to participate in this final competition. After the old lady finished speaking, she left the hall where the young ladies gathered, and did not give the young lady any more time to ask questions.
"Sister, my sister really has no bottom in her heart. You said Wan'er didn't participate? ”
"It's up to you to make your own decision, in fact, the old lady is right. We have entered the threshold of wealth, and every year there is a royal salary to take, and the royal family will give a dowry when we get married. has won face for the family. Would you like to fight again? No one else has the right to decide for you. "Poplar states the facts.
But we no longer have the right to marry autonomously. At that time, it is not like goods to be left to the choice of men. It was Huang Rong who said this, and she had been wearing a veil for the past two days. The maid and a mother-in-law didn't leave the house at all. Everyone in the room knew they had a rash. The maid and the mother-in-law are fine, no one can see them through the clothes. Huang Rong had pimples all over her face. I thought it would be good to take a bath, but I didn't expect it to get heavier and heavier. She opened her mouth several times to beg Bai Yang to detoxify herself, but Bai Yang kept being cold. I am the one with a weak heart, so I have been delayed until now. She heard what Bai Wan'er said, so she greeted Bai Yang on this step.
"Miss Huang Rong, we are here to participate in this five-year election in order to fight for a good future. There are people who fight for this goal openly, and there are many people who secretly make small moves and stumble others. The so-called cycle of cause and effect, good and evil are rewarded, I wonder if Miss Huang Rong has a deep understanding? Bai Yang didn't answer Huang Rong's words, but Bai Wan'er said in an unkind tone.
"Sister Bai, can Huang Rong talk to you in private?" Huang Rong also ignored Bai Wan'er, looked at Bai Yang and asked. This was her last chance, and she couldn't afford to miss it again.
"Miss Huang Rong, there is only time for a stick of incense. If you have anything to say, just say it. Poplar said and stepped aside, his expression cold.
"Sister Bai, Huang Rong is sorry for you. I don't want to shirk my responsibilities, but I can't do anything about it. Huang Rong's father, mother, brothers and sisters are inseparable from the family power behind them. Huang Rong didn't want to ask Sister Bai's forgiveness, so Huang Rong begged Sister Bai to give me an antidote. I don't know many secrets, and it's not the people of the Great Yan Kingdom who put pressure on my family. Their purpose is to be the prince's woman, and what will happen to the future of the great country They bet on the prince. In fact, it is just a small fight to damage your clothes, and I know that you will not be tricked. The bigger conspiracy lies in today's competition.
I heard that the finale of the final competition is allowed. The young lady on the Nanling Continent who can dance and attract bees and butterflies, the young lady on the Xiling Continent who can use whistles to drive snakes, insects and beasts, and Meng Dan on the Beiling Continent, I heard that they will come up and challenge you when the time comes. As for Ling Wei, they also knew that they had something to do with you, so they didn't count her. Huang Rong said so much and looked at Poplar expectantly.
"Miss Huang Rong, Miss Ben has never regarded you as a real opponent. Not contempt, but respect. Who doesn't want a bright future of wealth and glory? Your tangled contradiction Poplar looks at it in your heart, if you are the only one who is still really poisoned, do you believe it? The rash on your maid and mother-in-law's hands is just for you to see. ”
"Sister Bai, this is true, they even harmed me."
"Huang Rong, if they want to harm you, you are already a dead man by now. We have put a very corrosive poison on our clothes, but your maid and yourself have only a rash on their bodies. It's enough to show that you have been given an antidote by them afterwards, but you don't know it. You're just trying to see what I'm going to do? I don't say or do it, maybe they didn't expect it. The poison on your body is not fatal, it will tickle you for a few more days at most. The sugar pill for detoxification, Miss Ben can't give it to you right now. Because I will detoxify you now, not to save you but to harm you. You're not a stupid person, you should be able to understand the Tao here. Bai Yang coldly put down a few words, and then didn't look at Huang Rong and returned to the team. With Huang Rong's cleverness and judging the situation, Poplar believes she will understand.
Huang Rong understands it or not, and I can't see it now. Those who watched from afar understood.
"See, eat the stinky girl inside and out. The hot face sticks to someone's cold ass. I knew that I wouldn't have given her a detoxification. The mother-in-law who came with Huang Rong said with a fierce face.
"Or your old man was prescient. I didn't get rid of all the poison for her, but unfortunately we were so far away that we couldn't hear what they said. ”
"You don't have long eyes, the beggar has a calm face from beginning to end, and she hasn't given her the antidote pills. Thankfully, I didn't let her know more secrets. ”
"Secret?"
"Don't talk too much if you shouldn't know." The mother-in-law scolded the maid next to her. A sneer sneered on the lips of the rockery jujube standing behind them leaning against the big tree. Anyway, what's the secret? If you don't talk about it, you can't just let you go.
A cold wind blew the snow on the ground, and the mother-in-law and the maid sneezed together and staggered back to the resting house.
The time for a stick of incense is fast approaching. When the old lady came back, a few young ladies were really left in the hall. The old lady smiled faintly, and the one who knows the times is Junjie. These young ladies are quite self-aware.
"The first contest is horseback riding, and the young lady who just left is not a coward even if she has no score. Stay to participate in the competition, and if you quit halfway, you will be deducted points. ”
"Old mama, we've never ridden a horse before. I always go out by horse-drawn carriage. A young lady obviously said with fear because she didn't leave just now.
"The competition is cruel, and it is your courage that is tested. You are not ordinary ladies, and in the future, when you enter a high-ranking family, you are a man who wants to assist you. Not a flower in a vase. Entering the finals, the royal gave you the glory you deserved. Now I regret that it was too late to quit. It doesn't matter if you haven't ridden a horse, it's a shame for you not to have the guts to try. After the old lady finished speaking, she walked out of the gate of the palace with more than forty young ladies. There were already grooms waiting there with all kinds of horses in the test field.
"Now go and pick the horse you want to ride. You are all accompanied by maids, and you need them to protect you at this time. The old lady looked coldly at the hesitant ladies and said.
"Sister Wan'er, let's go with my sister and choose horses." Bai Yang took Bai Wan'er's hand and said encouragingly.
"Sister, I'm scared when the carriage is running fast, how dare I ride a horse?"
"Sister Wan'er, everything has a first time, and our sisters from the White Palace's Mansion have to move forward side by side when they come together. This jujube red horse looks quite docile, so you can choose it. As he spoke, Poplar walked up to the red horse, reached out and touched its brown fur, and some permeable powder was smeared on the horse's neck.
"Sister, you're right, I'll ride."
"Miss Bai Er, your sister is really discerning. This is still a group of ponies with a very docile temperament. You just ride it to the end. The man leading the horse was also comforted.
Seeing Bai Wan'er clumsily riding on the back of the horse, Bai Yang also jumped on a big white horse next to her. Poplar, a horse of this era, was not ridden, but in modern times she was trained to ride horses. Hopefully, the evolution of horses hasn't changed much. But even if she changed the poplar, she was not afraid, she had already prepared a silver needle in her hand, and found that the horse could be inserted into its central nervous system in minutes if she was disobedient.
Before Bai Yang and Bai Wan'er rode their horses, the two horses had already passed them and walked away. On horseback were Meng Dan and Mao Huahua on the Beiling Continent.
Montan was in good shape, and gave her a defiant look when he crossed the poplar. Mao Huahua looked a little weak, and it seemed that yesterday's pot of tea and plum blossom cake tossed her enough. However, she was still able to participate in the final event, which shows that the people on the Beiling Continent are no strangers to poison. If you calculate that you have their participation, then the people on the Beiling Continent have already infiltrated the palace?
