Finally, on the day when the Shikoku Kingdom officially began, there were many fewer vendors on the streets of the city, and it seemed much more deserted. However, the ceremonial square in the eastern part of the city is very lively, crowded with people.

The square has long been set up around the white marble platform, for the courtiers and foreign envoys to watch, the brocade bench in front of the table has long been placed tea and cakes, countless colorful palace maids are waiting beside it. The dragon chair on the north side is even more magnificent, covered by a translucent curtain, which can not only see the game in the square, but also block the sun.

"Nalan Ye, you don't seem to be very interested in today's game, do you?" Luo Qingluan turned around from time to time while walking to urge Nalan Ye, who was left behind, obviously the street was very empty, but Nalan Ye walked very slowly without hurry.

Regarding Luo Qingluan's inquiry, Nalan Ye smiled and was unmoved, anyway, it was still early before the test at this time, rather than being hypocritical and polite with so many people, it was better to just accompany Luo Qingluan to wander around the street.

Luo Qingluan is looking forward to this event, because it is the first time she has encountered such a big event, usually she can only go to the street when she is bored, and she can only go to the street to see the blowing, playing and singing of Mengxian Tower, even if she can pass the time, today finally has the Four Nations Congress, and her mind has already flown to the venue.

Seeing that the distance between Nalan Ye and himself was slowly widening, Luo Qingluan finally couldn't help it, turned around and ran back, and took Nalan Ye's arm and walked forward.

Luo Qingluan pouted and complained: "If you continue to walk like this, when you get to the venue, the daylilies will be cold." ”

"It's still early, what are you doing in such a hurry?" Looking at the little hands that were as tender as spring onions and holding his arm, Nalan Ye smiled slightly, and was pulled to speed up, but it was still not much faster than just now.

Just after the dawn, at this time, the ceremonial square was already crowded, most of the courtiers had already arrived, and many ordinary people from Xichu also came to watch the game. The sound of selling and talking one after another is endless.

The closer he got to the venue, the more excited Luo Qingluan became, looking around, like a child, very happy. Only then will her innocence be revealed, and she is usually hidden.

Finally arrived at the entrance of the square, but Luo Qingluan found that he was running too fast, and he didn't know when Nalan Ye disappeared behind him, so he could only stand at the entrance and wait for him.

After a while, Nalan Ye walked slowly from the crowd towards the entrance with his hands behind his back.

"Why are you like this, you suddenly disappeared while walking, you can say hello anyway." Luo Qingluan ran to Nalan Ye's side and counted him down.

Nalan Ye was not annoyed at all, and took out two strings of sugar gourds from behind him, "I just saw someone selling sugar gourds, so I went to buy two strings for you." After speaking, he stuffed the sugar gourd into Luo Qingluan's hand and strode towards the venue.

"Unexpectedly...... "I didn't expect him to buy snacks for himself, Luo Qingluan was a little warm with the sugar gourd.

It seems that he usually pays attention to her, knowing that she and Daiyue always like to eat sugar gourds when they go to the street, so he will simply buy her some. Just thinking about it, in a blink of an eye, Nalan Ye had already entered the venue, and couldn't help but pretend to say: "Nalan Ye, I'll die when I wait a minute." ”

With that, she hurried after her.

In the square, the imperial relatives and many courtiers had already sat down, and although they looked around, they were obviously much quieter than the people around.

As the organizer, Emperor Xichu arrived late after a while, and sat on the dragon chair with the support of Song Guifei, and Gonggong Li stood aside and waited carefully. Originally, Queen Wang was also supposed to come, but because she was pregnant, Emperor Xichu brought the most favored Song Guifei to watch the battle, and Song Guifei at this time was even more proud.

The courtiers knew that Nalan would also play this year, and they were all looking forward to it on the surface. You must know that the parliaments of these four countries are actually a battlefield without gunpowder between countries, which can not only be nominally strong, but also bring a lot of preferential treatment and convenience to their own countries.

As soon as Nalan Ye entered the square, Xiao Ningyu, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately saw it, and hurriedly greeted him, and waited until Nalan Ye walked by and bowed.

"Ning Yu has seen the King of Chu."

Those charming eyes seemed to be looking through the autumn water, flashing with the tenderness and admiration of a girl, Xiao Ningyu thought that with her own appearance, not to mention that Nalan Ye was fascinated, but at least it would amaze him.

didn't think that Nalan Ye just nodded to her, didn't say a word, as if he didn't know, and walked past her towards Emperor Xichu. Xiao Ningyu was embarrassed, but she was unwilling to let go of this great opportunity and followed all the way.

Luo Qingluan, who was walking behind, saw it all in his eyes, and was very satisfied with Nalan Ye's approach, and when he passed by Xiao Ningyu, he didn't forget to raise the rock sugar gourd in his hand, and smiled slightly at Xiao Ningyu: "Princess Duanrou is wearing a beautiful dress today, where did you buy it?" ”

"What's the matter with you?" Xiao Ningyu tugged at the handkerchief in her hand and gritted her teeth.

How did she not know that Luo Qingluan was sarcastic about her? Thinking of what Bai Yixuan said to her last night, she naturally wouldn't give Luo Qingluan a good look.

"Hehe, too, no matter what the princess wears, naturally it doesn't matter to me. However, whether my husband is good or not, I don't bother Princess Duanrou to greet him, so save my energy. After speaking, Luo Qingluan took another bite of the sugar gourd before walking away.

Xiao Ningyu looked at Luo Qingluan's back with gloomy eyes, in short, only the voice she heard, and said fiercely: "Luo Qingluan, you wait for me." ”

As if hearing something, Luo Qingluan seemed to pause and looked back, Xiao Ningyu's eyes suddenly shrank, and she quickly turned around and didn't dare to let her see it. With a faint smile, Luo Qingluan ignored her and continued to speed up his pace to catch up with Nalan Ye.

"Look at you running, don't sweat." Nalan saw Luo Qingluan chasing after him at night, and reached out to naturally straighten her hair for her, and touched her forehead.

"Who made you run so fast." Luo Qingluan snorted and handed over a sugar gourd, and Nalan Ye took it over to help her hold it. Such sweet actions between the two made Xiao Ningyu even more angry, but it was inconvenient to have a seizure at this time, and she was stunned and suffocated her heart.

"Princess, are you alright?" The personal maid next to her saw that her face was not good, so she wanted to step forward to help, but unexpectedly she became Xiao Ningyu's punching bag, and she pushed her hard and almost fell.

"Useless dog minion." Xiao Ningyu brushed her sleeves and walked away, and the maid followed in a panic.

Time passed little by little, and when it was auspicious, Gonggong Li finally read out the rules and rewards of the competition. The parliaments of the four countries have officially kicked off, and the warriors of various countries are also gearing up and can't wait.

Luo Qingluan sat in his seat, drinking tea and listening.

"In the first round, the men's essay test - archery! The first scene was played by Zhao Sicheng, the son of the Seven Princes of Dongwan Kingdom, against Lin Feifei, the son of Mo Wuhou of the Southern Wei Kingdom. Gonggong Li's voice was very sharp, Luo Qingluan was very unaccustomed, and couldn't help but pluck his ears with his fingers.

fell into Xiao Ningyu's eyes, feeling that she was simply vulgar, compared to herself, it was the difference between heaven and earth, Xiao Ningyu was very puzzled by what Nalan Ye liked her.

The first to jump on the stage was Zhao Sicheng, and Lin Feifei also followed closely behind, and also jumped into the ring, because he knew that there was going to be a competition today, so several people who signed up for the competition wore strong suits that were convenient for display.

As soon as the two came up, there was a tumultuous exclamation from the audience, and Luo Qingluan looked at the two people on the stage.

In terms of appearance, Zhao Sicheng looks more burly, with bronzed skin and bright eyes, which are full of explosive power. And Lin Feifei is even more handsome, wearing a white power suit, wearing a jade crown, and looking gentle and elegant. It's not like the competition, but it's like the ease of touring the mountains and rivers, but it shows a strong self-confidence.

The two look obviously different temperaments, but because of their good appearance, they also make countless women confused.

"Ahh Come on! Some of the daughters of the boudoir who admired Zhao Sicheng couldn't help but shout.

"Lin Gongzi is even more powerful, it must be Lin Gongzi who wins!" Similarly, there are also many women who are optimistic about Lin Feifei of the Southern Wei Kingdom.

Since there were no Xichu players in the first game, it didn't matter which side they cheered for. Not only were these daughters and nobles excited, but even the courtiers nodded again and again, as if they were comparing the two people on the stage with the next Xichu players.

Luo Qingluan looked at the two people in the stands, then at Nalan Ye, pulled Lan Lanye's sleeve and asked worriedly: "Nalan Ye, look at the people, they all come prepared, even if it is archery, it is so simple." You're looking at you, you're participating in swordsmanship, this outfit is good-looking, but aren't you afraid of being tripped over by your robe as soon as you get on stage? ”

Nalan Ye suddenly felt a black line, and asked Luo Qingluan meaningfully: "Lady, is this doubting the ability of being a husband?" ”

Luo Qingluan knew that his body had not recovered, so he hoped that he would be careful, but he glanced at him and said: "It's not worrying, others don't know what you are doing, don't I know yet?" I'm worried about your opponent, if you wear like this, he won't be able to beat you, isn't that shameless? But with your kung fu, they won't be able to beat you even if they strip naked, right, hehe......"

"Qingluan, I thought you would worry about me, but it turned out to be ......" Nalan Ye suddenly became aggrieved, and even lowered his voice: "Can't you care about me?" ”

I know that this man is coquettish again, in the past few days, she has been poisoned, under the pretext of being weak, she has been like this several times, which makes her flustered and heartbeat, and she is very unaccustomed. Now in broad daylight, no better than at home, Luo Qingluan didn't dare to let him go too far, so he could only say casually: "Okay, okay, I care about you, why don't you care about you?" When it's your turn, remember not to be careless, no matter how powerful you are, you have to guard against your opponent, you know? ”

"Qingluan, do you think I'll win?"

"Definitely, you are the king of Chu, and the entire Western Chu is looking forward to you winning!"

Originally, I thought that Nalan Ye would modestly refute herself, but she didn't expect that Nalan Ye's face changed, and she nodded as a matter of course: "Well, that's it, seeing that you worship your husband so much, your husband will definitely win the first place for you." ”

Choked almost out of breath, Luo Qingluan thought: "I've seen shameless, I've never seen you so shameless." said that he was fat, and immediately gasped. ”

At this time, Gonggong Li's voice once again drew Luo Qingluan's attention: "Attention, the topic of the competition between the two is archery, a total of ten arrows, and the one that shoots the most hearts wins." Now, the race begins! ”
