Chapter 161: Competition

"Bold, how dare you speak like this to our little princess?" A stout man behind him stepped forward and said sharply.

Luo Xuanze's eyes dimmed, and the big man who was still shouting just now flew out directly, lying on the ground and wailing.

The sudden drastic change made everyone present take a breath of cool air one after another.

"Lord Wang, it's so lawless, I forgot that this is Zhaoyang Palace, how dare I commit murder in front of the emperor?" Situ Jie said sharply.

Several ministers led by the emperor echoed one after another, "Lord Wang, do you still have the emperor and the queen mother in your eyes?" ”

Luo Xuanze didn't speak, his cold gaze swept over everyone, and finally approached Situ Jie.

Feeling his gradually approaching breath, Situ Jie felt trembling all over, and subconsciously swallowed his saliva.

"Regent, you ...... Don't forget what you want to do, this is Zhaoyang Palace. Situ Jie stammered, and it was difficult to hide the fear in his voice.

Everyone knows Luo Xuanze's temperament, if it weren't for Situ Jie's sweat.

"Enough!" With a loud shout, the entire hall instantly returned to calm, and Luo Xingchen, who had been sitting on the chair silently, straightened up, his face was a little ugly.

"Lord Wang, this matter concerns the entire imperial court, and the ministers are also considering the overall situation, doesn't the prince feel that he has done it too much?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone knelt on the ground, not daring to speak.

Looking at the emperor's appearance, I am afraid that they are already on the verge of anger, and I am afraid that they will become the target of public criticism if they are not careful at this time.

"Since the emperor thinks that marriage is very important, why don't you let the princess marry into the harem, which is more prominent than discomfort?"

Luo Xingchen's hands in front of the bookcase were clenched tightly, and his eyebrows and eyes were getting darker and darker, such a beautiful and powerful princess, he naturally wanted to stay in the palace.

If they hadn't insisted on marrying him, how could he have cheapened Luo Xuanze.

"The prince has made up his mind to refuse marriage?" Luo Xingchen asked word by word.

Luo Xuanze's face was calm, he walked to the middle of the main hall, and saluted in front of the hall, "This king has already been married, and if he has a wife, he will naturally not marry again, and he will not wronged the princess to come to the palace and ask the emperor to take back his fate." ”

"Bold, Luo Xuanze, do you really think that I won't cure your crimes?" Luo Xingchen slapped the table and roared.

The entire hall was silent, except for the low breathing of everyone.

The little princess stepped forward, although she was angry that Luo Xuanze had repeatedly rejected him, but she was more appreciative of him. "The more you do that, the more it appeals to me."

Looking at her obsessive eyes towards Luo Xuanze, Lin Xiaojiu stepped forward with a smile and bowed slightly.

"The emperor doesn't know if he can allow the people to say a few words."

Luo Xingchen's gloomy gaze fell on her, and then nodded.

Today's Lin Xiaojiu is wearing a pale cyan long skirt, with a green silk coiled on the top of his head, which is a little more luxurious than in the past.

Lin Xiaojiu walked to the little princess's side, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, "Just now the little princess said that she wanted to compete?" ”

The little princess was stunned, she had never seen such a beautiful person when she was at the border, and she even felt a little ashamed of herself standing in front of her.

It took a long time before he came back to his senses and generously shook the whip in his hand.

"There is a custom on our border that if two women have a crush on a man at the same time, then it can be decided by competition."

There was a loud bang in the air, but none of the people present dared to speak.

Lin Xiaojiu raised his eyes, his eyes were flat and there was no fear, "I don't know what the little princess wants to compete?" ”

Seeing her posture of competing with other women for herself, I don't know why Luo Xuanze felt a little happy in his heart.

The little princess arched her hand towards the emperor, "Your Majesty, this is a problem between women on our border, no matter what the outcome is, please don't blame the emperor." ”

She would say this, so Lin Xiaojiu really didn't expect that she would appreciate this little princess a little more.

Since it was the little princess's request, and according to the current situation, he could only agree.

Soon the emperor ordered someone to prepare a ring, and the competition was a best-of-three game.

"If I come to the question, I'm afraid it will be difficult, why don't you do it?" Lin Xiaojiu said with a smile.

The little princess didn't expect her to say this, and when she saw her confident look, she held her mouth.

"Since you asked me to come up with the question, if I compete with you, I'm afraid that I will bully you, why don't you say that I heard that you people in the Central Plains like piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, why don't we compare this?"

A woman from a frontier region actually took the initiative to ask for a test of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, isn't this simply a soft stone?

Qin, chess, calligraphy and painting have never been Lin Xiaojiu's strong point, looking at the confident and proud appearance of the little princess, Lin Xiaojiu really couldn't guess what she was thinking.

"I wonder what the princess is talking about?"

The little princess got up and walked around the Chaoyang store, and finally stopped at the door, looked outside, and her face was happy, "Then let's take snow as the topic, how, the time of a stick of incense." ”

"Okay." Lin Xiaojiu responded.

As the saying goes, you can't lose if you lose.

Lin Xiaojiu has never been very proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, Luo Xuanze is very clear, reached out and pulled her arm and said softly, "If you don't like it, you don't have to." ”

If she was asked to do something she didn't like for herself, he would never want to.

Since she is ready to face any ups and downs with him, Lin Xiaojiu will let everyone know that she is qualified to stand side by side with him.

It's not just about defending yourself, it's about defending him.

"You don't believe me?" Lin Xiaojiu raised his head in front of him and said.

Luo Xuanze chuckled and shook his head, how could he not believe it, if he said that the person he believed in the most in this life, it would be the woman in front of him.

Soon the contest will begin, with a limited time for a stick of incense.

The little princess is the guest, and naturally is the first performer.

Under the amazed gaze of everyone, her neat painting technique is simply that of a contemporary painter, and soon, a snowy scene appears vividly in front of everyone.

I didn't expect a border princess to be so powerful, I heard that the border people are good at martial arts and light literature, isn't this all a rumor?

Soon there was a burst of applause in the hall, and the little princess raised her head very proudly.

She has always liked the culture of the Central Plains, so her father often invites some masters from the Central Plains to teach her, and she is also very proficient in the culture of the Central Plains.

"Miss Lin for the next one." The little princess said with a smile, her eyes full of triumphantness, and she was convinced that she was the winner of the competition.
