In the afternoon, the Queen Mother couldn't stand the fatigue and didn't come. Before the emperor and the concubine appeared, everyone had already gathered in the water pavilion. This is not far from the lawn of the morning banquet, the same in Bihu, but on the other side of Bihu.

Thirty paces from the shore of the lake, a circular platform was built from the bottom of the lake, on which there was nothing, but it could be arranged into various places. With the addition of a gauze curtain, the emperor can enjoy the moon and listen to songs inside, set up a stage, and the emperor will enjoy the water dance on the shore.

Now, the platform is arranged as a martial arts ring, and everyone can see that the emperor is really ruthless! Those who are beaten out of the field will fall directly into the water of the lake next to it. Therefore, the attendants intimately prepared two small boats, one is to pick up people who need to take a boat to get to the stage, and the other is to salvage people who have fallen into the water.

Xie Ruijiao saw Cheng Haitang standing with the county lord at a glance. The begonias in the crowd were elegant and gentle, and Xie Ruijiao noticed that the long hair that she had scattered behind her in the morning was now tied with a big braid, and the two red jade beads were still tied at the end of the braid.

Haitang didn't see him, only said something to the county lord with a sideways face. Xie Ruizhu glanced at the shore and saw King Xian, Ji Chuan and the people who followed them, and King Kang also stood beside him with two people. These generals who signed up for the competition were easy to recognize, and many of them had never entered the harem, and their expressions were slightly nervous.

Because there are many foreign men, the vigilance in the palace has also been strengthened, not only Jin Wuwei has sent more people, but even Dongchang has also sent a lot of people.

Yan Shiyi walked to King Duan quietly, looked at the competition platform, but asked in his mouth, "What?" The duck to the beak flew, and it didn't hurt to look at it? ”

Xie Ruijiao didn't look at him either, he didn't show any expression on his face, but there was a smile in his tone: "Three thousand weak water, only take one scoop to drink." I'm not uncommon except for her. ”

"It's not easy to play three, but it's not difficult for you. What I'm worried about is that neither you nor Cheng Hanbai can go up, do you still have anyone under you? Yan Shiyi laughed quietly: "You always fight with me, saying which is more important, firearms or martial arts, now you know the importance of fists and feet, right?" ”

Yan Shiyi is the eleventh son of Wang Man, the prince of Dongchang Factory, because their light skill is called "Yan Yunti", so Wang Man asked them to take the word "Yan" as their surname and arrange them in order of entry.

There are three righteous sons that Wang Man values the most, and one of them is this eleventh master.

Yan Shiyi and Xie Ruijiao are of the same age, when they were children, Xie Ruijiao hid in the cold palace, and by chance, Yan Shiyi, who accidentally broke into the cold palace after being beaten, ate two pieces of braised pork, and the two children became good friends. Xie Ruijiao often hid some of his small meals, and waited for Yan Shiyi to come and give him food.

Yan Shiyi was Xie Ruiji's only friend before he was six years old.

After Xie Ruijiao became the prince openly, although Yan Shiyi couldn't go to Xie Ruijiao openly, the two of them secretly played together. Some of Xie Ruizhang's kung fu was handed over to him by Yan Shiyi to buy and sell.

Yan Shiyi's skin was white, and he covered his sharp eyes, but he looked like a white-faced scholar. Today, he wore Dongchang's Xuanyi as usual, with a net hat covering his hair in a bun. Even if it was the same costume, Yan Shiyi always wore a little more extravagance than others.

"You watch the king carefully, they have a secret weapon." Yan Shiyi put his fist against his mouth, pretended to cough twice, and retreated to the team of the East Factory.

"Eleventh Master, Thirteenth Master, should we disperse to guard?" A Dongchang fan came to ask for instructions.

Yan Shiyi said casually: "No." When the emperor comes, we will only protect the emperor, and today we don't have to care about anyone except the emperor. Thirteen, you are in charge of the back, and I am in charge of the front. ”

Yan Shisan answered, and took a few Dongchang fans to inspect the back. This Yan Thirteen is Eleven's life and death partner, and when he goes on a mission, the two are always in a group. The two of them were different from others, they vaguely knew that they were orphans of criminal ministers, and they didn't know what kind of mentality Wang Man had at that time, and what his purpose was, so he chose them to come back to raise them.

Born and died together for more than ten years, Yan Shiyi and Thirteen have the best relationship. Among Wang Man's nineteen godsons, Yan Qi, Eleventh, and Thirteen, these three are everyone's most optimistic successors.

When the emperor's step arrived, the competition platform immediately beat the drums to start. Today, the emperor specially explained that the process of the martial arts competition must be like that of the people, and he wants to let the concubine watch the excitement in the palace.

I saw that the three warriors of the princess, Un, Qinggeltai, and Battle, took off from the shore and leaped to the jousting platform together, and the three of them lined up, which was a bit of a posture.

Princess Yilan is both proud and worried, proud because she thinks that the clan is powerful and has face, and she is worried because she is afraid that they are too powerful and she will not be able to marry......

Soon, a tall and thin man in purple flew up to the stage, and he reported to his family: "Zheng Yirong, the son of the contemptible General Zheng's mansion, please advise!" ”

Without further ado, he attacked from the frontal Hungertai, and Un and Battle outflanked him from both sides. This Zheng Yirong's kung fu is good, even if he is a pioneer to explore the way to the bottom, he has persevered for dozens of moves before he was beaten into the lake.

Because this afternoon was a martial arts competition, except for the emperor and the concubine, the rest of the people did not have seats, and everyone, regardless of men and women, stood around the lake.

Xie Ruizhu saw Xie Yuanyu standing alone with his hands on the side, so he slowly walked over and whispered: "There are a lot of people who are going to come to the stage today, don't be impulsive." Although I don't want the princess to fall into the hands of others, I don't want you to regret it for the rest of your life! ”

Xie Yuanyu nodded, and his eyes swept towards the surface of the lake were soaked with complex tragedy. Xie Ruijiao knew at a glance that he was determined to play, sighed and said: "I'm afraid that the king will use a secret weapon, if you play, I will help you off the field, but you yourself have to be careful." ”

Xie Ruizhu returned to the lake near the emperor, and the king stood two steps away. On the stage, he was challenging General Zhang Heng, the younger brother of the Taiyuan General Army. Xie Ruizhu only learned today that he was also King Kang's person.

I saw that General Zhang Er was more than brave and dexterous, so he could only fight hard with these three Warats, and it was okay to fight one or two, and the third one was a little powerless. After a while, it was flipped into the water by Une.

How do you know that this general Zhang grew up in the mainland, he is not familiar with water, he fell into the water and fluttered for a long time, and it was easy for the chamberlains to fish him onto the boat, and the emperor couldn't help laughing, and he was not kind and happy for a long time.

In this way, one after another, people were beaten into the water, just like dumplings. The people who offered the king, Duanwang and Ji Chuan also went into the water after coming to power, and even General Li, who was found by Guo Hongde, could not take advantage.

Xie Yuanyu walked to Xie Ruijiao's side, and Xie Ruijiao knew that he was going to make a move.

"Take the plate." Xie Ruijiao reminded softly.

Yan Shiyi was patrolling back and forth around the emperor, and at this time, he happened to walk to Xie Ruijiao's side and inadvertently bumped into him, Xie Ruijiao only felt that his hand sank, looked down, and almost laughed.

He quietly glanced at Xie Yuanyu and stuffed it into his arms. That's a bag of small iron balls! This Yan Shiyi actually smoothed the pocket of the secret weapon of the king.

Xie Yuanyu did not hesitate and flew onto the competition platform.
