Fighting Spirit (1)
Although she knew that this game was over, Li Qianqian was still shocked into a cold sweat.
Her eyes widened with fright, and beads of sweat the size of beans dripped from the sides of her face.
In the first half, she tried her best to kill Lan Wujiang, and how could Lan Wujiang not see it?
This blade, even if it is pointed, can be wrong even a fraction, and it will take her life.
"Your Majesty, you should know who wins and who loses in this competition, right?" Lan Wujiang turned around, hugged his fist at Li Li and bowed, and asked crisply, leaving Li Qianqian alone in place.
If it weren't for the palace banquet, if it weren't for her identity, Li Qianqian only felt that Lan Wujiang would definitely kill her.
"Good!" Li Li, who watched this competition on the dragon chair, naturally didn't know the psychology of the two of them, and he didn't know if Fang Cai gambled his life in that battle, so he stroked his palm and praised: "He is worthy of being the hero of the Lan family, who can turn my daughter into a defeated general."
As he spoke, Li Li also glanced at where Lan He was, as if full of appreciation.
It's just that Ranhe received this praise on the surface, and his heart was slowly stunned, and he didn't mean to be happy at all.
The first time she saw Lan Wujiang, she felt that she was extraordinary.
Subsequently, Lan Wujiang really opened her eyes.
It's just that now, it makes Ranhe have to be surprised.
How heavy is her hand, she naturally has a balance in her heart. Even if he was injured like this, Lan Wujiang could still raise his eyebrows here.
This made Ranhe somewhat incredulous.
"Today's battle, I am really happy to watch, I didn't expect that my Nanzhou is really talented." Li Li stroked his palms and laughed, "My daughter really gave me a surprise. β
Li Qianqian, who was separated from the fright, had no choice but to force a smile when she heard this: "It's best if my father can be happy, as for Miss Lan, she is indeed extraordinary, I am willing to bow down."
When she said this, Li Qianqian only felt that her mouth full of silver teeth was about to be crushed by herself.
obviously wanted to embarrass Lan Wujiang, but in the end, she ended up defeating, making her a laughing stock at the palace banquet.
Li Qianqian's hands were hidden in the cuffs, almost crushing the fabric of the cuffs.
"It's said that the fourth sister's skills are not as good as others." Li Bingquan glanced at Li Qianqian coldly, and mockery overflowed from his lips and teeth: "If you are a second late, you will not know where you are."
Originally, Li Bingquan was reluctant to speak, but seeing Li Qianqian like this, it was really a little unpleasant.
Now she deserves such ridicule.
As before, Li Bingquan stopped talking about it, as if the world had nothing to do with her, which made Li Qianqian hold a lot of breath in her stomach.
"This game is interesting, but there is no and no, there is a huge disparity in strength, I don't know what to watch." It was just a low sneer, but it happened to reach Li Qianqian's ears.
"Hmph." Li Qianqian whispered a trick towards where Li Bingquan was, and reluctantly retreated to her seat.
As a defeated subordinate of Lan Wujiang, staying there any longer would be nothing more than self-inflicted humiliation.
Thinking about it this way, Li Qianqian's resentment towards Lan Wujiang became stronger and stronger.
"It's just that I don't know anything." Li Li looked at Lan Wujiang, and the interest in his eyes became more and more intense.
Lan Wujiang hung his head and stood upright, neither humble nor arrogant: "Your Majesty might as well speak bluntly."
"I look at your ability, why is it difficult to get a top three above the national competition? Don't say that the top three, it is not impossible to be the leader. Li Li leaned forward, and his expression was a little more curious: "Why do you want to withdraw from the national competition?"
The country is like a pimple in Lan Wujiang's heart.
It's not because I regret quitting the race, but because I regret that I dragged others down because of my momentary mistakes.
Therefore, after hearing this question, Lan Wujiang paused for a moment, and he didn't know how to respond.
What the Yu Lan family said, naturally, can't be said directly here.
"Back to Your Majesty, the country is more important than nature, but I think there are things that are more important than the country." Lan Wujiang raised his eyes, "If I have this ability, I will be appreciated sooner or later, and Guobi is just an opportunity." But if you miss something, you miss it. β
Li Li raised his eyebrows.
It wasn't the answer he wanted to hear, but it wasn't a bad one.
"You're straight to the point."
"I'm just telling the truth. For example, today, even though I have not compared the country to the end, I still show my skills in front of His Majesty, which proves that I am not wrong. β
Listening to Lan Wujiang's words, Li Li laughed instead of anger, and stroked his palm: "You are right. If you hadn't been in the top three, I wouldn't have seen you behave like this. From this point of view, it is true that there are gains and losses. β
Lan Wujiang bowed his head to show it, and his heart was also relieved.
If you dwell on this, you don't know how much tongue you will waste.
Seeing that Li Qianqian, the initiator, had already returned to his seat, Lan Wujiang didn't stay long, and after answering Li Li's doubts, he walked straight to Lan He's side.
The two looked at each other, and Lan Wujiang didn't hesitate much, so he sat down straight.
If there is no hatred in the heart, it is impossible.
It's just that at this moment, she is still a member of the Lan family, and she has to cooperate with the Lan family to finish this scene.
Just looking at Lan He, Lan Wujiang still had many inexplicable feelings churning in her heart, which only made her upset.
"You ......" Ranhe's gaze paused on her for a long time before he said something.
It's just that before the words came out, he was stopped by Lan Wujiang raising his hand: "It's still above the palace banquet, if there is anything to say, it's better for grandpa to stay and say it at another time."
After that, Lan Wujiang poured himself a glass of wine and drank it all, as if he didn't take this place and everything that happened before to heart.
Despite sitting so close, there was an insurmountable chasm between Kelan Wujiang and Lan He.
Lan Wujiang is not that puppet after all, he is really difficult to teach.
At this time, Lan Wujiang in Lan He's eyes was like this, and not long ago this position was still sitting by a puppet, this feeling became even stronger.
This uncontrollable feeling is what makes Ranhe feel most unhappy.
"Lan Aiqing, it's really amazing to be able to raise such an offspring." Li Li looked at where Lan He was, and praised with a smile.
Lan He leaned on his staff and stood up, bowing his head slightly: "Your Majesty is serious." The old body has not done anything, maybe this is the blessing of the Southern Zhou Dynasty. β
Lan Wujiang listened from the sidelines, and couldn't help but laugh in his heart.
In any case, after all, there is still one sentence that is right, what she is like has nothing to do with the Lan family.
If the Lan family did this, it would be a great stain to her. Hot e-books
"In any case, I am very happy about today's battle." As he spoke, Li Li looked at Lan Wujiang with a little more approval than before: "I wonder if I should give you some rewards to show encouragement."
It is naturally not uncommon to be rewarded at the palace banquet, but at the palace banquet this time, Li Li said that it was the first time that he wanted to be rewarded, so when he heard this, everyone pricked up their ears and waited for his next words.
Li Ning also raised his eyes and made eye contact with Li Bingquan.
"Your Majesty bothered." As the head of the Lan family, Lan He was the first to respond, "But Wujiang is a child after all." It's a good thing to be favored by His Majesty, but this ......"
Hearing this, Li Li raised his hand to block Lan He's next words: "Her performance just now is not as good as that of ordinary children, even if she is very good, how can I not show praise?"
Before the words fell, Li Ning, who had been silent at the palace banquet, suddenly spoke: "Father, the emperor and the sons also think that Miss Lan should be rewarded."
The Southern Zhou Dynasty knew that the great prince of this dynasty was silent and rarely spoke.
But now at the palace banquet, he suddenly asked for a reward for a person, which naturally surprised Li Li.
He looked at Li Ning with an interested look: "Oh? You are the most taciturn on weekdays, but today you suddenly opened your mouth for this girl from the Lan family, what's going on? β
"Don't misunderstand, father, son-in-law is just talking about things." Li Ning glanced at the place where Lan Wujiang was, but his face still did not change, no different from usual.
"Tell me what you mean, then?" Li Li drank a glass of wine and waited for Li Ning's response.
Just by allowing Li Ning to open his mouth to ask for a reward, Lan Wujiang is somewhat of a strange person, and this reward is also deserved.
"I have come out of a lot of talents, but Miss Kelan is a halfway monk, and she is a woman, so it is not easy to have such achievements today." Li Ning was not in a hurry or impatient, and said word by word: "If you reward her, it will be an encouragement to her, and it will also be an encouragement to future generations."
Li Li's head also agrees with Li Ning's statement.
"Then what should you reward, according to your wishes?"
"Jewelry, silk and satin, people like Miss Lan can't use it, a hundred taels of gold, a thousand acres of fertile land, it's too clichΓ©." Li Ning made a slight mistake in his eyes, and then smiled humbly: "The sons and daughters are not sure, it is better for the father to be the master."
No matter how modest he is, this is just a cheap trick.
On the surface, he didn't make a choice, but he naturally made the choice clear, but he still had to take a hand.
After all, Li Ning does not have real power in his hands, and it is inappropriate to speak thoroughly.
After all, it was father and son, and Li Li naturally understood what Li Ning meant.
He patted his thigh and muttered, "Even if these things outside the body are not very suitable, then I have no choice but to give her a half-official position as a sign of approval?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was shocked, except for Li Ning and Li Bingquan. Even Lan Wujiang is the same.
She knew that Li Ning helped her speak, and there was a thread of Li Bingquan.
It's just that he can do this, Lan Wujiang still has to admire Li Ning's methods.
It's just that in the eyes of others, this matter is not just a matter of casual talk and the dust settles.
Lan Wujiang is just a teenage yellow-haired girl, and now there are many people here who have never had an official position, and she can win Li Li's favor so much just by virtue of a competition.
At this time, many people began to be annoyed, regretting that it was not themselves who competed.
Otherwise, such a good thing would not have just fallen on Lan Wujiang's head.
If you say regret, no one at the banquet regrets it more than Li Qianqian.
Originally, a trap was set up to make Lan Wujiang the fish that was caught.
didn't expect to trap himself, but also gave Lan Wujiang a chance to rise to the top.
Li Qianqian stared at Lan Wujiang deadly, and there seemed to be endless flames in her eyes, just waiting to shoot out.
"Father's idea. I just don't know what I want Miss Feng Lan to do. Li Ning still had a faint smile, and there was no desire in his eyes.
Just as the proposal to reward Lan Wujiang was not the one he made, there was no appeal from Li Ning at all.
Such a person is more convenient to do something, at least even if he is really ill-intentioned, it will not make people suspect that he has a ghost.
"The Lan family has made great contributions since the founding of the Southern Zhou Dynasty, and now in this generation, there are still many talents. Li Li examined Lan Wujiang for a while, and finally made a decision.
When these words came out, Li Li was still a little casual, making it impossible to tell whether the words were sincere or false.
Just hearing this, you should think that the king of this town is like a turnip and cabbage on the side of the street, as if he is readily available.
In fact, Lan Wujiang himself knew in his heart that the reason why Li Li could say it so lightly was because in his eyes, this town king was not worth mentioning at all.
How beautiful is it outside? As long as there is no place in the eyes of the emperor, it is no different from uselessness.
It's just that at this moment, Lan Wujiang doesn't want to care so much.
With this identity, she will be much more arbitrary when she does many things, and it doesn't matter how heavy the weight is, as long as it is useful.
"Thank you......" It was only Lan Wujiang who wanted to receive the order of thanks, but was stopped by the uninvited guests at the banquet.
Lan Wujiang looked fixedly, and the person who spoke was Lord Xia.
She naturally understands that this person is upright and has his own character.
Blocking Li Li's proposal this time is to block Lan Wujiang's future.
However, because the other party is Lord Xia, Lan Wujiang is happy to hear what he will say next.
"Aiqing thinks it's inappropriate?" His meaning was pointed out by others, and Li Li felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
It's just that Tong Lan has no borders, and because of the high position of the other party, Li Li still asked patiently.
"Exactly." Prince Xia bowed his head, and his tone was firm and abnormal: "The matter of registering the feudal king is not a child's play, and the minister hopes that His Majesty will consider it thoroughly."
"I've thought about it, and there's nothing wrong with it." Li Li thought he would say something, but when he heard this, he couldn't help waving his hand.
"The Lan family has made great achievements, and the king of this town, their Lan family can naturally afford it."
To put it bluntly, this title is just another means to appease the Lan family.
A position with a title is nothing more than the release of some money every month, and there is no loss.
On the contrary, it is worth using this worthless title in exchange for the loyalty of one person.
It's just that after Xia Wangye understood Li Li's meaning, there was still no sign of relenting.
He stepped forward and clenched his fists: "I hope Your Majesty will think twice."
"The Lan family has made great achievements, and the head of the Lan family can afford this title, but it does not mean that the Lan family can afford it. What's more, the title of King of the Town is not trivial, it is different from ordinary titles, so it is even more prudent. β
