Chapter 66: The Tournament

In the evening, the people at the post station brought the meals, and Shui Bi placed them on the table one by one, six dishes and two soups, which were quite hearty.

"Princess, come and dine."

Shi Jing sat up from the soft couch and stretched lazily, "Let me see what's delicious." ”

Shi Jing picked up the chopsticks and was about to clip the hibiscus cake in front of him, Yueqi stepped forward, "Slow." ”

I saw him take out a silver needle, test the poison one by one, and only then stop after confirming that the food was okay, "Your Royal Highness Princess, you can eat." ”

Shi Jing looked at his cold face and laughed softly, "Isn't it too exaggerated, we are new here, who would want to harm us." ”

"Her Royal Highness the princess is delicate, and there is no room for any mistakes." Yue Qi's expression was solemn, and his serious little face was a little cute.

Shi Jing laughed out loud, "Okay, okay, let's sit down and eat." ”

Towards the evening, Shui Bi and Yue Qi had not yet had dinner, and they couldn't finish eating so many dishes alone, so they beckoned the two of them to sit down and eat together.

"No, no, the slave and maid are lowly in status, how can they dine with the princess."

"I don't dare on the seventh day of the month, the princess tortures her subordinates."

The two spoke in unison, and they had a tacit understanding on this matter.

"I'm a princess, I'll have the final say, hurry up and sit down to eat, otherwise I'll be angry." Shi Jing pursed his lips, his tone was unquestionable, where did he come from so many rules, this evil feudal dynasty.

"The princess seems to have become more approachable than before." Shui Bi's eyes were slightly red, and she sat down with some trepidation.

Shi Jing stretched out his hand and filled two bowls of rice, handed them to them, and muttered in his mouth, "Don't be so restrained by my side, I don't have too many rules, just be yourself." ”

Yue Qi held the bowl of rice in his palm, and his heart skipped a beat, how long has he not been cared for so many years, this long-lost kindness is really hard-won.

In fact, many people don't want much, but it's a pity that the world refuses to give them even a little kindness.

In just one meal, Shi Jing bought the hearts of the two of them, saving her a lot of trouble in the days that followed, and she herself didn't know anything.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, I heard that the people here in Xiliang advocate martial arts, which is very different from ours, there seems to be some martial arts competition tonight, should we go out and have a look?" Shui Bi has a lively temperament, and she is very curious about everything when she first arrives, no, she has been encouraging Shi Jing to go out.

There are many literati and elegant guests in Dongyue, the people are simple, and the people like elegant things, while Xiliang is just the opposite, the people advocate force, and the people here will more or less point to self-defense, and it is no wonder that the East Vietnamese Congress was defeated.

"Okay, okay, don't shake it anymore, I'm dizzy, let's take you out and have a look." Shi Jing rubbed the corners of his forehead helplessly, looking at the water blue layer three feet high.

"Our princess is the best, she is beautiful and beautiful." Shui Bi diligently thumped Shi Jing's arms and legs, and a small mouth was as if she had touched honey.

"You girl, you are so flamboyant at a young age, and you will have it when you grow up." Shi Jing shook his head with a smile and stood up.

"Oh, what I said was the truth, did you say it on the seventh day of the month?" Shui Bi stuck out her tongue mischievously, and joked about the ice cube that had been standing next to her.

"Yes." The seventh month is like a sculpture, and the words are pitiful.

"Let's go, let's go out for a walk." Shi Jing walked out of the post station with the two of them, and ran into Master Zhang when he went out.

Lord Zhang is the main representative of the envoy group this time, and he is in charge of everything, and when he saw Shijing, he was going out and saluted her, "Her Royal Highness the princess should pay attention to safety outside, in addition, Emperor Xiliang arranged for us to enter the palace tomorrow night to meet him, and asked the princess to prepare in advance." ”

"Okay, I got it." Shi Jing nodded, what can I prepare? People just go and go.

The streets were crowded with people, people ran in one direction, and even the shops on both sides of the street closed their doors, and the shopkeepers couldn't wait to follow the crowd, which was a great spectacle.

Before the night fell, the sunset was twilight, and the fiery afterglow reflected on the red walls and green tiles, adding a bit of haze to the bustling streets in front of you.

Shijing and the others also followed the crowd, and they could hear the sound of gongs and drums from a long distance, and it turned out that these people were all coming to see the martial arts competition.

On the high platform, there was a big man standing with a long beard and a muscular appearance, laughing loudly, "Who else wants to compete with me, come forward quickly!" ”

"I'll come." Another strong man strode to the stage, and the two fought with their bare hands.

With the terrifying momentum of Yue Qi's body, Shi Jing squeezed to the front without much effort, and he could see the battle on the stage more clearly.

The people around were originally a little dissatisfied when they were squeezed out, but when they saw Shi Jing's appearance clearly, the swear words in their mouths were forced back, "Which king, Wang ......"

Shi Jing laughed, looking at everyone's obsessive gaze in embarrassment, people didn't even pay attention to the martial arts competition, just stared at her vigorously.

Shi Jing had no choice but to take out an ice-blue veil and put it on, covering it tightly, revealing only a pair of clear eyes.

"Whew, I'm glad I've been prepared."

Seeing this, Yue Qi stood sideways beside Shi Jing, covering those eyes in a protective posture, and he stood with his sword in his hand and arm, looking cold and not easy to mess with, and smoothly kept those people away from Shi Jing.

The fight on the stage also came to an end, and it was still the bearded victory.

"This man is so powerful, he's won seven games in a row."

"It seems that tonight's leader is him, the first can have a lot of rewards, the most valuable is the big night pearl, I heard that it came from Persia, very rare."

Shi Jing followed his gaze and looked at the night pearl on the stage, shining, glowing with soft fluorescence in the dark, it was indeed very beautiful.

"The princess wants?" The cold Yue Qi asked, probably seeing Shi Jing's gaze.

Shi Jing shook his head, "I have a lot of Night Pearls, this is indeed very rare, but let the person you really like take it." ”

Yue Qi stopped talking, and there was a slight loss in her lowered eyes.

"Oh my God, this man has gone up! He's so stiff, go up and send him to death? ”

I saw a thin man who looked polite and polite walked up to the stage and bowed to the bearded man, "It's rude." ”

The two stood together, forming a stark contrast, if the bearded man was an eagle, the thin man was like a chicken, looking weak and incompetent.

"Boy, with your body, you won't be able to get up if I punch down, so it's better to go down as soon as possible and don't join in the fun." The bearded man kindly reminded him, but the thin man just smiled indifferently and did not leave the scene as he said.

"I have the confidence to defeat you." The words are soft, but they are confident.

The organizer of the tournament seems to have found a highlight, and stopped the game and temporarily added a betting conference, "Buy and leave, the winning rate is one thousand to lose, come and see." ”
