It's actually a strange competition, from the bet to the behavior of both sides of the bet, which is a little funny in the eyes of others.

But one of the two is the daughter of Rongdi, and the other is a high-powered general, and even Helianxing, who was the most irritable at this time, shut up, and no one dared to say anything.

It's because he's curious.

"So, on our side, if Shen loses, how about also offsetting the sword, and without crossing the bottom line, how about satisfying the requirements of the princess of Rongdi?"

In fact, there is not much difference in the conditions, limited by different identities and positions, this is the best bet that Shen Mo can put forward.

"I don't have an opinion, but," she frowned and looked at Shen Mo who was empty-handed, "You're empty-handed?" ”

Shen Mo wrote lightly: "It's fair. ”

The two of them stood up separately, and then Xu Ban borrowed a small flag from nowhere to make a command flag, and under the sound of a flag with his hand, Helian Su took the lead in holding a short dagger and rushed towards Shen Mo.

Close melee combat is the most dangerous, the dagger stabbed down in front of Shen Mo's forehead, Shen Mo raised his arm unhurriedly, the green iron bracer collided with the dagger, making a screeching sound, he went down together in the direction of the opponent's force, and when Heliansu's offensive was exhausted, he suddenly flipped his arm out, and easily shook the opponent's arm away.

Before the blow was successful, Helian Su retreated, the dagger was corrected to a reverse grip, and with the help of the dexterity method, he shook a shot, brushed Shen Mo's body, and instantly twisted his waist, and the dagger stabbed towards Shen Mo's back.

To her annoyance, the other man was no slower than her, and he leaned forward with his back to her, his left hand on the ground, and at the same time swept his left leg back, dodging her dagger, and the riding boot hit her ankle, not only dodging the attack again, repelling the attack, but also causing her to stagger a few steps in pain.

Hearing the sound of the other party's staggering footsteps, Shen Mo quickly stood up with his left arm, and then turned to face her again, with a cold and serious expression.

Seeing him so relaxed, Helian Su couldn't help but feel angry in his heart.

She struck again, and the dagger probed into the opponent's throat, vowing to make the other party suffer, but she saw a flash of light in the opponent's eyes, the dagger in her palm had already landed, and her wrist was still aching, but she didn't know how to lose.

"The same move shouldn't be used a second time so quickly." Shen Mo didn't speak, but Xu Ban explained, "The princess lost." ”

He had already seen that in fact, the general could suppress and take her dagger with his strength when she attacked him for the first time, and the reason why he was not in a hurry was probably because he wanted to give Rong Di's envoy some face in front of everyone.

"Now that the competition is over, the princess should go back and rest well, and the soldiers will send the wounded medicine soon."

Helian Su sighed, didn't say anything, just glanced at Helian Xing, and suddenly said:

"What you want me to do, I've done."

Then she left in the direction of the inn without looking back.

Seeing this, Xu Ban ordered two soldiers to follow her and escort her.

Helian Xing in the back couldn't stop her, and was anxious to explain to Shen Mo, and was about to speak, but he saw an extremely strange smile on Shen Mo's face, which made him shiver.

"Xu Ban, you can accompany Mrs. Chen and Chen Gongzi for me for the time being, and ask Helian Envoy to come with me."

Shen Mo took a step forward, reached out with his left hand and grabbed Helian Xing's arm, and unexpectedly detained the sturdy Rong Di man to death, unable to break free at all.

Mrs. Chen and Gongzi Chen saluted him, and the former covered his mouth with a fan that had opened in surprise.

Helian Xing was dragged by Shen Mo to the secluded backyard of the Chen Mansion before being let go.

But this didn't mean that the other party had relaxed its grip on him - Helian Xing clearly felt the murderous intent that erupted from Shen Mo's body.

As if locked by the eyes of a tiger, the hairs on his back stood up, and his heart was extremely vigilant.

He really wanted to kill him.

He could guess that Shen Mo might be angry knowing his original purpose, but he didn't expect that he would directly provoke the other party's murderous intentions.

After a creepy silence, the killing intent in Shen Mo's eyes was gradually suppressed, and he spoke:

"You don't have to explain, I know what you want to do," Shen Mo made everything clear on the spot, "You don't want Helian Su to marry the emperor, so you just let her test me." ”

Shen Mo grinned, revealing his white teeth.

"Helian Xing, don't have any more crooked ideas, you must know that the harmony was proposed by yourself, and the only one who can marry your princess is Your Majesty, your life-"

He took a step forward, lifted Helianxing's shirt with one hand, pressed the other hand's arm holding the dagger, probed down, pulled it, and snatched the opponent's dagger into his hand, and the sharp blade was against Helianxing's waist, making him unable to move.

"Your life is not worth much, it may not be enough for General Ben to send you a round trip."

"If you are not at peace again-this one round trip, the Shen family's iron cavalry will definitely set foot on the territory of Rongdi."

Then he let go of the left hand that was strangling the other party, squinted at Helian Xing took two steps back, and then gasped for breath with difficulty.

Helian Xing's thinking was too simple.

Shen Mo holds the power of 300,000 troops of the Shen family army in his hands, has been stationed at the border for a long time, and knows Rong Di well.

Shen Mo is far away from the court, and has never been under the control of the emperor, compared to Prime Minister Shangshu and others who have always been under the emperor's nose, it is really an unstable factor, not to mention that because Shen Qingjun entered the palace, he and the emperor have secretly not dealt with each other, could it be that he has to take the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers for the sake of a little Rong Di?

And if he really forgot his military power because of a princess who couldn't even compare to his sister with a finger, what would he rely on to support his sister?

It was Helian Xing's actions that completely touched Shen Mo's scales and made him murderous, but - the two countries intersect and don't cut it, there is no need for Helian Xing's little life to be broken now.

"Stay honest at the inn." He said to Helian Xing with a smile.

——————I'm a dividing line——————

Xu Ban saw Helianxing following Shen Mo with his head down, and seeing that Shen Mo had regained that indifferent and serious expression, he knew that the matter had been resolved, and sent someone to send Helianxing back to the inn again.

The four of them set off for the West Market again.

Quxian West City is a very interesting place.

Although the war has been fought for many years, it does not mean that there are no trade exchanges between countries inside and outside the territory, in addition to Rongdi, there are also Wanqi, Boruo, Xiaoxia and other countries from the west.

These countries brought with them large quantities of gold and silverware, horses, and precious stones, plus a small amount of booty captured in the war zone, which were piled up as commodities in cities that were not in the first-line war zone.

Thanks to the Shen family's army for many years of war, among the Three Kingdoms, Xiaoxia and Wanqi have bowed down, but Bo Ruo is still vacillating between the Central Plains and Rong Di.

Among the Three Kingdoms, Xiaoxia is rich in rare minerals, silver and gold; Wanqi sells Xuanwu horses; Boruo traded gems, and was also proficient in the art of forging short weapons, such as the dagger in Helian Xing's hand, which was made by the people of Boruo.

The gifts that Shen Mo prepared for Shen Qingjun will probably come from here - rouge gouache, hairpin jewelry is too innovative after all, not to mention that Shen Qingjun doesn't want these.

Shen Mo was thinking about it, and as soon as he looked up, he saw a strange style of gem-encrusted gold hairpin on Mrs. Chen's head, the gem was so beautiful, the deep blue was like a real night sky.

Shen Mo frowned and asked:

"Where did Mrs. buy this hairpin, can you tell Shen?"

Mrs. Shen was stunned for a moment, and then said, "It was given by a close friend in the boudoir." ”

Shen Mo's eyes moved away from the butterfly double-strand golden hairpin, and he turned his head to carefully look at the other items in the bazaar, and his tone was relaxed and freehand: "It is indeed a good thing." ”

It's so good that it looks familiar.
