Chapter Eighty-Four: Martial Arts

Soon it was the day of the banquet, and after Lianzhi arrived, he found that it was not so much a banquet as a competition field, a circular venue with tables and chairs placed around it, and a school field for the competition in the middle.

Wen Yunxi came earlier than Lianzhi, and when she saw Lianzhi arrive, she called her to come and sit next to her. After Lianzhi sat down, he looked around, and there were already many people here, but to Lianzhi's surprise, Ji Nanyi actually came.

"Ji Shizi is also here today?" Lianzhi asked.

Wen Yunxi nodded: "Yes, he just came over to talk to me, and the prince of the spring hunting season didn't go, it's a pity to listen to him." ”

"What's the pity, so many things happened in this spring hunt, isn't it good for Ji Shizi to hide in the capital?" Lian Zhi said, "As far as I know, the Mo family has now become the laughing stock of the capital. ”

"That's true, fortunately, that Mo Ziyu didn't return to Beijing, otherwise he would really have no face to go out. However, Prime Minister Mo Cheng is also big-hearted, he married Xu Xian a few days ago, and I heard people say that these days are spring breezy and proud, and those who don't know think that Mo Ziyu has nothing to do with him. Wen Yunxi felt that Mo Cheng was too ruthless to Mo Ziyu, and Mo Ziyu was also the son of Prime Minister Mo Cheng.

"I didn't expect that at this time, there would be people who dared to marry into the Prime Minister's Mansion."

"I've heard that the continuation is Mrs. Mo's niece."

Wen Yunxi was talking to Lian Zhi, and suddenly saw Mo Ningyao appear, but in addition to Mo Xuxu, there was also a young man walking with Mo Ningyao today.

Wen Yunxi was a little strange: "Who is that young man, why haven't I seen him before?" ”

Lian Zhi looked at the young man, his eyebrows were delicate, but he looked a little scared, and he was not at all conspicuous behind Mo Ningyao, and even Mo Xuxu was more eye-catching than him: "If I guessed correctly, this person should be the concubine of the Mo family." ”

"Prime Minister Mo Cheng is really good at raising a son, this concubine comes out like an entourage, but his appearance is still good." Wen Yunxi sighed, "If it weren't for Mo Ziyu's accident, I'm afraid Prime Minister Mo would not have looked down on this concubine, and now that the concubine has an accident, he can only bring out the concubine who he didn't look down on before." ”

Lian Zhi didn't make an evaluation, and Wen Yunxi didn't mention the Mo family's affairs: "By the way, is the prince's brother here today, it's been several days since the last time I saw him, and I don't know how the prince's brother's injury is?" ”

Lianzhi shook his head: "I don't know, I've been learning wedding etiquette these days, and I'm dizzy." ”

"No wonder you don't come to me all this time, is it tedious to learn etiquette?"

"The main thing is that Dongxia and Western Chu are still a little different in terms of etiquette, you are a member of the Western Chu royal family, so it shouldn't be difficult for you."

Wen Yunxi had also seen those cumbersome etiquettes, and couldn't help but shudder when she thought of this: "It's really troublesome to get married, but some people can't ask for this trouble, except for the father, only the prince's brother's marriage will be so cumbersome." ”

On this side, Lianzhi and Wen Yunxi were talking, and on the other side, Mo Ningyao also sat down, Mo Xuxu pulled Mo Junting to the back and sat down, Mo Junting rarely went out of the house, and it was the first time he saw this kind of big scene, so he panicked in his heart, and his legs and feet were a little weak.

Mo Ningyao naturally noticed Mo Junting's appearance, and rolled his eyes, even if he promised to take him out, this kind of person would not be able to become a climate. Even if his brother is abolished, it will not be Mo Junting's turn to be on the table.

Mo Xuxu knew the situation of himself and Mo Junting, although Prime Minister Mo Cheng began to pay attention to her and Mo Junting because of Mo Ziyu's affairs, but the two of them must not do anything wrong, so they still have to keep a low profile at this time.

Mo Xuxu pulled Mo Junting to sit down, and whispered: "Junting, you remember, I brought you out today to meet the scene, don't be afraid, no matter what happens later, don't do anything beyond the norm." ”

"Sister, I'm afraid." Mo Junting said timidly.

Mo Xuxu comforted: "Junting, look at the people sitting here, everyone is pampered and noble, you and I are concubines and concubines, it stands to reason that we can't come, but since you and I have been given this opportunity to sit here, don't you want to be those people?" ”

Mo Junting looked at the others, watching them talk and laugh, and a trace of longing flashed in his eyes: "Sister, can I?" ”

"Now that Mo Ziyu is gone, the Prime Minister's Mansion can only count on your son, and this is your only chance."

Mo Junting nodded: "Sister, I understand." ”

"It's good to get it." Mo Xuxu finally felt slightly relieved, in order to make Prime Minister Mo pay attention to Mo Junting, she did not hesitate to attack Mo Zi in the spring hunt, and now that her plan has succeeded, the two of them will only live better in the future.

Soon, the sons and ladies of the major families arrived, and Wen Zhiyan, Wen Zhiyu and Wen Zhiyan came later, looking at this situation, Wen Zhiyu is likely not to appear today.

Fan Ninghuai came with Emperor Chu, Lianzhi didn't expect that even Luo Xuanran didn't come today, it seems that Emperor Chu didn't let go of Luo Xuanran.

After greeting Emperor Chu, everyone sat down again, and today's banquet officially began.

"Regent, I salute you with this cup of wine, and I hope that the two countries of Western Chu and Eastern Xia can be friends forever." Emperor Chu toasted to Fan Ninghuai, and Fan Ninghuai raised his glass: "The wish of Emperor Chu is also the wish of this king." ”

The two drank the wine in the wine glass, and then they both laughed, and everyone present began to say congratulations when they saw this, and Emperor Chu and Fan Ninghuai looked very harmonious, which seemed to represent the current friendship between Western Chu and Eastern Xia.

Lianzhi guessed in his heart, I don't know how long the superficial harmony between Western Chu and Eastern Xia can be maintained?

Just when Lianzhi was almost half full, Fan Ninghuai spoke: "Emperor Chu, it is really an honor to see so many children of the Western Chu family come to this banquet today. ”

Wen Xize put down his wine glass: "The regent has come from afar, of course I have to entertain him well." I have heard that Dongxia attaches great importance to men's riding and archery skills, I wonder if I can open my eyes today? ”

Fan Ninghuai said politely: "This king sees that the children of the Western Chu families present are very good, and I think that the skills of riding and archery will not be bad, but this king still doesn't offer ugliness." ”

Wen Zhiyan had already received the order of the Emperor of Chu, and he was going to promote this competition today: "Father, the last spring hunt ended early, and the sons felt that it was a pity for the sons who had been preparing for a long time. ”

Emperor Chu asked Fan Ninghuai: "What does the regent think?" ”

How could Fan Ninghuai not know Emperor Chu's plan: "Since this is the case, then the king is better to obey his fate than to be respectful." ”

When those children of the family heard this, they immediately knew that their opportunity to perform had come, and they were eager to try.

Today's competition is archery, and Lianzhi watched several children of the family who thought they were excellent demonstrate archery. After a few rounds, it can be seen that there are a few people who are indeed more prominent.

Lian Zhi sighed in his heart, in front of Fan Ninghuai, these people may really not be enough to see.

Sure enough, Fan Ninghuai was not very satisfied with their performance, but just watched casually, as if he was watching a juggler. Wen Xize naturally saw what Fan Ninghuai meant, and he coughed twice: "How does the regent feel?" ”

Since Wen Xize asked so, he expected that Fan Ninghuai would be afraid of face, but Fan Ninghuai's answer made Wen Xize very shameless: "It's not good, I haven't seen anything particularly outstanding yet, in the eyes of this king, they still need to practice more." ”

At this moment, Su Yixiao came on the field, and he shot ten arrows in a row, each of which hit the bull's-eye. Fan Ninghuai bowed slightly: "This is not bad." ”

At this time, General Su Jingxuan's son, Su Yixiao. Sure enough, it's the son of Jiangmen! Wen Zhiyan sighed.

"It's kind of interesting." Fan Ninghuai looked at everyone looking at Su Yixiao with a satisfied face, he suddenly got up, flew directly to the center of the field, and then took out three arrows and shot them on the bowstring, hitting the bull's-eye! The whole process was smooth, and the people present looked amazed.

Wen Xize was obviously unhappy, but he still had to praise Fan Ninghuai: "The regent's archery skills are really good." ”

Lianzhi knew that Wen Xize was originally going to give Fan Ninghuai a dismount today, but now he was shocked by Fan Ninghuai, with the archery skills that Fan Ninghuai just showed, I am afraid that even Wen Zhiyan and Wen Zhiyu are not comparable.

Su Yixiao did not feel that his skills were inferior to others and were embarrassed, but this strengthened his heart to continue practicing in the future, and he saluted Fan Ninghuai and prepared to leave. But no one expected Fan Ninghuai to speak: "Master Su, since you are the son of General Su, you should also get the true inheritance of General Su." This king has admired General Su for a long time, so it is better to continue to learn it today. ”

"Teach what?" Su Yixiao subconsciously replied.

"Martial arts." After Fan Ninghuai finished speaking, he made a move, and Su Yixiao could only accept it.

The exchange between the two surprised everyone, and Su Yixiao fell down after taking a few moves from Fan Ninghuai, Wen Xize looked at the fight in front of him, and the hand on the arm of the chair was tightly clenched. Now, Wen Xize can't take the initiative to stop, otherwise Xi Chu is really completely faceless today, and he can only expect Su Yixiao to hold on for a while longer.

Everyone can see that Su Yixiao can't beat Fan Ninghuai at all, Fan Ninghuai is humiliating Su Yixiao, and he is also humiliating them Xichu, but at this time, there is really no one to come forward, otherwise Xichu will really lose face.

Everyone's eyes were firmly fixed on the competition on the field, and Fan Ninghuai suddenly jumped up and slashed at Su Yixiao's Tianling Gai with one palm. Fan Ninghuai wanted to kill Su Yixiao, but no one present dared to stop him.

"General Su!" Wen Zhiqian shouted, "Get out of the way." ”

Su Yixiao dodged away, but his arm was exposed in front of Fan Ninghuai's eyes, and Fan Ninghuai changed his palm to a claw to grab Su Yixiao's arm, and he actually wanted to abolish his arm.

Wen Yunxi grabbed Lianzhi's arm nervously: "Wanyang, what can I do, if something happens to Su Yixiao, what hope can the Su family have?" ”

Lian Zhi got up suddenly, and Wen Zhiyan noticed Lian Zhi's actions: "Princess Wanyang, what are you going to do?" ”

Lian Zhi ignored him and flew directly into the field, pulling Su Yixiao away with one hand, and blocking Fan Ninghuai's move with the other.

"Fan Ninghuai, are you crazy?" Lianzhi shouted.
