Chapter 138: Take a break

"Ladies and gentlemen, the emperor has decreed that the martial arts competition will be suspended. Have lunch and take a break before starting! ”

The eunuch, who looked a few years younger than Gonggong Li, said such a sentence in the same sharp voice as Gonggong Li. And the sensation caused by this sentence was even more sensational than everyone expected that Wang Dadao defeated the tenth person and directly advanced to the last day of the game.

As soon as the eunuch's words were finished, everyone in the audience and those sitting in the tent couldn't help but whisper and discuss. It's not early, but it's not that late. Just wait for the referee to order a person to come to the stage to "send him to death" before going to lunch, and the time is more than enough.

And even if he is really hungry, he can eat something to pad his stomach first, and just wait for the end of the game to give everyone a result before going to have a formal lunch!

Everyone is talking louder and louder, and they are even planning to protest to the emperor together, so that this most thrilling game can have a happy ending for the time being. However, when they raised their heads again and looked into the tent, the emperor and the noble concubine had already turned and walked out of the tent. Even if they wanted to protest, they had missed the perfect time.

Xuanyuan Yichen and Liu Qingyan didn't discuss this, but the eyes of the two of them never left the tent from beginning to end. Unlike the others, everyone was looking at the eunuch standing outside the tent who was delivering the message, while the two of them were looking at Xuanyuan Yixing and Concubine Gao who were sitting inside the tent.

I don't know whether it should be a coincidence or deliberate, those two people are also looking at this side, they don't seem to be hit by the reality that the people of this country in front of them have won nine games in a row, looking at Xuanyuan Yichen and Liu Qingyan's eyes, there is no look of disappointment at all, but there is a deep meaning, and there is a deep meaning hidden in the indescribable.

When the two of them got up to leave, Xuanyuan Yixing didn't seem to bother to pay attention to Xuanyuan Yichen and Liu Qingyan, and had already turned his head to look at the road ahead, but Gao Guifei couldn't help but turn around and sneer at them, and then left contentedly.

The first and fifteenth of the first year, Xiaoyue and Linglong also saw this scene, and they inexplicably felt that such a sudden move by the emperor was definitely related to the prince of his own family. Xuanyuan Yichen and Liu Qingyan didn't think so in their hearts, but Liu Qingyan still wanted to comfort himself, maybe this emperor has an absolutely advanced consciousness, just like a modern TV series broadcast, just wait until the most exciting part, and suddenly insert an advertisement. It's the same with the game, take a break before the ending comes out.

The emperor has already left, and it will be useless for the rest of the people to stay here. The fourth prince of Liguo had already personally walked to the competition platform and invited Wang Dadao to leave with him and then go to lunch together. Everyone else also left one after another, but in the entire barracks, there were still many people who continued to guard the field.

The ordinary people who had been guarding outside the gate seemed to be worried that once they left, the favorable terrain that they had managed to occupy by getting up early in the morning would be robbed by others. Therefore, many people would rather go hungry and skip this lunch, and never leave here for half a step. But it's too tiring to stand, so I just sit down and rest. Others have already considered this situation, and they can also take out some dry food from their arms to satisfy their hunger by sitting on the ground. It's a pity that I didn't bring water, so I had to be thirsty first.

It is said that it is for lunch, of course, it is impossible to go back to the palace, and once you come and go, you don't know how much time it will be delayed. The dining place is arranged in the canteen inside the barracks, and the tables, chairs, dishes, chopsticks, dishes, and wine are all incomparable to those in the palace. However, it can be regarded as deliberately Jin Xiong's preparation, which is still very good.

The cafeteria is also divided into three fields, one occupied by one country. The middle is separated by a barrier, which does not interfere with each other and is orderly.

Xuanyuan Yixing and his noble concubine naturally sat on the most middle and spacious main seat. The other princes and ministers did it step by step according to their respective seniorities and official positions. Xuanyuan Yichen and Liu Qingyan are together, naturally sitting on the lower seat of Xuanyuan Yixing. Although I was very reluctant in my heart, but this was also a helpless thing, who let them be the half-brothers who were closest in age and the youngest in difference. Fortunately, they each occupy a table, and they can be regarded as not interfering with each other, as long as the noble concubine's eye knife does not fly everywhere, it is even better.

The dishes were quickly served, and I suddenly found that in fact, so many people gathered to eat together, and there was also its excitement and fun. Modern Liu Qingyan has basically always been a loner, but he also understands a little why the ancient emperors and generals like to hold various banquets so much. In addition to getting together to connect with each other, you can also enjoy the feeling of being in the center surrounded by everyone. It's just that if it is in the Xianwang Mansion, everyone's center is naturally Xuanyuan Yichen and Liu Qingyan. But in the center of the eyes, it is not wrong to say that it is Xuanyuan Yixing. But there is one more person who seems to be about to snatch away his central position.

This person is Wang Dadao. With his status as a martial artist and without any official position, I am afraid that he is not qualified to enter this canteen specially for the enjoyment of adults sitting in tents. At best, he was squatting outside on the training ground with a bowl and eating with loess and sweat. Of course, if he is familiar enough with this place and has the currency that belongs to the Great Liang Kingdom, he can also find a tea shop, inn or restaurant to have a meal with the people of the other Great Liang Kingdom.

The above is generally the way of life that belongs to Wang Dadao, but since he made a splash on the competition platform and in front of everyone today, he has been given preferential treatment by the four princes, and he is qualified to have lunch with the four princes. And maybe he was afraid that someone would secretly make some conspiracy or something, so he sailed carefully on the 10,000-year-old ship, and every drop of water he drank, a grain of rice he ate, and a vegetable he chewed were all tirelessly tested by the guards around the fourth prince with silver needles. After confirming that it is non-toxic, let him eat it in his stomach. This kind of treatment, even the four princes don't have it!

Although the food in the barracks has improved a lot, and it is even better than what the soldiers eat on weekdays, it is obviously still not in line with the appetite of these princes and nobles who are already full of delicacies and delicacies on weekdays. These adults have eaten one by one, but the food in front of them has not moved much, fortunately, there are many people in the barracks, even if they eat the leftovers, it will not be a problem.

After lunch, as the eunuch said before, everyone will take a rest, or take a nap or something. The most people in the barracks are soldiers, and there are naturally many barracks. In the morning, a special place was prepared for the ladies and foreign envoys to rest for a while. Needless to say, the room where Xuanyuan Yichen and Liu Qingyan rested was still next door to Xuanyuan Yixing and Gao Guifei. When Xuanyuan Yichen and Liu Qingyan saw this situation, they didn't bother to go in, they didn't feel tired anyway, so they simply walked around and took a look, of course, Gonggong Li still followed behind them dutifully.

In this way, even if Xuanyuan Yichen and Liu Qingyan have a lot to say, they can only keep it in their hearts for the time being, and they can't say it. However, it did not delay them, and instead pointed the finger at Gonggong Li, who deserved it.

Xuanyuan Yichen said seemingly casually as he walked: "Gonggong Li, according to what this king has seen, I am afraid that if you don't need this king to speak, the imperial brother himself will send you to this king's envoy." "Which pot is not opened, not only the first year of junior high school, in fact, Xuanyuan Yichen will also.

Gonggong Li couldn't say anything about the bitterness in his heart, so he could only answer casually: "The prince is serious." In fact, even he himself was suspicious that if the emperor specially sent him to stay in the Xianwang Mansion to monitor the Xianwang and Princess Xian in the future, it would really kill him!
