Chapter 156: Sowing Discord

Looking at Nalan Ye, Luo Qingluan smiled and said, "It seems that our Majesty Xichu doesn't care much about you!" Nalan Ye, you are just right, and before you have recuperated your body, Your Majesty will let you participate in the Congress of the Four Kingdoms. ”

Although Gonggong Li came to ask just now, he said that he asked Nalan Ye to recommend the name of the person who participated in the Congress, but this was simply to let Nalan Ye participate, just to be tactful. According to Nalan Ye's name and skills, he is definitely a popular candidate for victory, how could Emperor Xichu let Nalan Ye go.

Nalan Ye already knew it, and said lightly: "That's it, it's inevitable that I will participate, and when I go to court tomorrow, I will report the list of personnel." ”

In fact, even if Emperor Xichu didn't let him participate, he had to participate this time.

Because there is a person, if he can't be seen in the venue, he is afraid that he will be called in public, and when the time comes, he will be forced to fight, but he will fall behind, so it is better to play at the beginning. Sooner or later, between him and that man, he will have to settle the grudge for many years.

Speaking of the quadruple Diet, which is held once every few years, this is a practice that has been formed for a hundred years.

It is not only a talent contest between the four countries of Dongwan, Western Chu, Southern Wei and North Vietnam, but also a manifestation of honor between countries. Luo Qingluan didn't quite understand what the Four Nations Congress was doing at first, but after listening to Nalan Ye's explanation, he realized that this was fundamentally similar to the Olympics in his previous life.

It's just that this time and space is not comparing various sports, but is divided into civil and military competitions. The contestants can show off their skills in singing and dancing, playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, or other similar skills such as embroidery and cooking.

The martial arts test is participated by men, and all horsemanship, bow and arrow, swordsmanship, marksmanship, etc. can be competed. Each congress will attract countless subjects to watch, and if the winner is indeed capable, even if he is not a native of the country, he will be admired and admired by everyone.

According to the winning rate, the top three people in the final ranking will not only receive a generous reward prepared by the four countries in advance, but also enjoy the relevant benefits such as tariff reduction and exemption for the first country.

Therefore, every year in the Diet of the Four Nations, the monarchs of the Four Nations will attach great importance to it and go all out.

"Do you know what the first prize will be this time?" Luo Qingluan smiled slightly: "If you participate, I'm afraid that there will be no suspense about the first place." ”

In the last meeting of the Four Kingdoms, Nalan Ye did not participate because he had just finished the war and his injuries had not healed, so the first place was won by a nobleman from Dongwan Kingdom. But this time, Nalan Ye didn't take care of his body again, but Luo Qingluan believed that as long as he participated, the first place would definitely be Nalan Night!

On the second day, Nalan Ye reported the recommended list, and it was approved by Emperor Xichu on the spot.

In addition to Nalan Ye, there were also Li Tengfei, the eldest grandson of Song Guogong, Wei Chi Gongjin, the second son of Xuanping Hou, and Sun Feng, the eldest son of the commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses. As for several princes, including Nangong Qing, Nangong Yu, and Nangong Chen, they all signed up, but it had already spread the next day.

Looking at Lin Yixuan, who came to visit, Luo Qingluan first beckoned him to sit down, waited for Dai Yue to serve tea, and then smiled and teased: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came to the Chu Palace, shouldn't it be because of the affairs of the Four Kingdoms?" Could it be that you think that you are not my husband's opponent and want to ask for a favor? ”

If it weren't for the fact that she was very familiar with Lin Yixuan, she wouldn't have spoken like this.

If the friendship does not reach this point, it will be considered arrogant and deliberately not giving face. And the fortune-telling friendship between her and Lin Yixuan naturally won't mind this.

Sure enough, Lin Yixuan said with a smile: "What does Princess Chu say, whether it is riding or swordsmanship, I admire the King of Chu very much, if I lose to the King of Chu in the congressional competition, I will not have the slightest complaint." If you are not good at what you do, just guard against arrogance and rashness, and go back to study hard. ”

This is neither humble nor arrogant, it not only shows his respect for Nalan Ye, but it is not inferior to others at all, even if Nalan Ye is powerful, he will fight with all his strength and compete with others.

The two laughed a few words, and Lin Yixuan got to the point.

Thinking of the poisoning incident that day, his face was a little deeper: "I don't know if Princess Chu knows, my sister ...... Bai Yixuan will also participate in the competition. Although he has said that he will break off the relationship, in private, he is still a little reluctant.

"Xuanji Gong is going to participate in the competition?" Luo Qingluan smiled unmindfully: "Since she has come all the way to Xichu, she must have planned to participate in the competition, and it is normal for her to participate." ”

"No, I mean ......"

Thinking that Luo Qingluan didn't understand what he meant, Lin Yixuan was a little anxious: "Princess Chu, don't forget the poisoning, if my sister participates, I'm afraid that she will cause some trouble, in case I hurt you or the king of Chu, I really can't feel at ease." ”

briefly talked about Bai Yixuan and Lin Xiaochen's teaming up, Luo Qingluan already knew a little bit about it, and Lin Yixuan didn't hide it. Everyone knows the importance of the parliaments of the four countries, and Bai Yixuan and Lin Xiaochen have clearly hated Nalan Ye and Luo Qingluan, but I am afraid that this competition will not be easy.

"Don't worry, I'll be careful."

I don't worry anymore, but for Lin Yixuan's special inform, Luo Qingluan is still grateful. After he had lunch, he was sent back and studied the list of congressional candidates who were to start the next day.

On the other hand, what Luo Qingluan didn't know was that Bai Yixuan set up a trap for her again.

In Honglu Temple, Bai Yixuan went to see Xiao Ningyu alone.

"Luo Qingluan dared to offend me even if she didn't hesitate to offend Southern Wei for the sake of Nalan Ye, such a woman, no wonder Nalan Ye was willing to marry her." As if she was very emotional, Bai Yixuan didn't care about Luo Qingluan's offense to her, but said in a tone of admiration: "So, Princess Duanrou, if I were Nalan Ye, I would also like Luo Qingluan, even though you have a deep love for him, but he never knew about it, I am afraid that you are a piece of love." ”

The fists were clenched, and the nails were sinking into the delicate skin little by little, but Xiao Ningyu didn't feel any pain at all, and her expression became gloomy a little bit.

"However, the princess is a princess after all, the first beauty in the four kingdoms, if the princess is willing to put some thought into it, it may not be impossible for the king of Chu to look at you more." Suddenly, Bai Yixuan said with a subtle smile on her lips.

"What do you say? Do you have a way? Xiao Ningyu was immersed in resentment, and suddenly heard Bai Yixuan say this, and couldn't help but feel shocked.

If you can get Nalan Ye's heart, you are willing to pay no matter how big the price is. Thinking that Luo Qingluan was so tidying up to her, relying on the identity of the princess of Chu to make her ugly several times, Xiao Ningyu had long been eager to teach her a hard lesson.

Seeing that she was tempted, Bai Yixuan smiled slightly: "The Four Nations Congress, which will officially start tomorrow, isn't it the best opportunity for the princess?" ”

Her eyes lit up, and Xiao Ningyu suddenly remembered: "Yes, tomorrow's Four Nations Congress ......"

She naturally wants to participate, but if she can defeat Luo Qingluan in the parliamentary competition, or even get the first place in the literary examination, even if she is cold and arrogant like the king of Chu, I am afraid that she will look at her more, and may even be tempted by her.

"Is the princess sure about tomorrow's competition?" Bai Yixuan asked.

"If I wasn't sure, Princess Ben wouldn't have come to participate." The corners of Xiao Ningyu's lips raised, quite proud.

couldn't help but cover her lips and smile, Bai Yixuan said: "Yes, I asked more, the princess is very smart, and she is the first beauty, whether it is piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she is proficient in everything, she is really talented, and the first place is naturally the princess." ”

couldn't help but feel a little more vigilant, Xiao Ningyu looked at Bai Yixuan, frowned, and said, "What, does Princess Xuanji think she will lose to me?" ”

Although she likes Nalan Ye with one mind, she is not a stupid person, the Four Kingdoms Congress is so important, she doesn't believe that this princess of the Southern Wei Kingdom doesn't care. Otherwise, what would she do?

Bai Yixuan smiled slightly, still gentle, with a bright brilliance on her face, but a touch of gloom flashed in her eyes: "Originally, I wanted to participate in the trial, but I was ...... by Princess Chu a few days ago." Hey, forget it, I'm not in good health, so I'm not going to participate. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Ningyu couldn't help but glance at her up and down, and said in shock: "I vaguely heard about you and Luo Qingluan, and the second prince even came to apologize in person...... But what's going on? Luo Qingluan actually hurt you? ”

"No, don't blame Princess Chu."

Bai Yixuan sighed, lowered her eyes, and said with a look of regret: "The king of Chu was assassinated a few days ago and was poisoned......

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Ningyu exclaimed: "What, the King of Chu was poisoned?" The look of horror on his face was palpable.

Hurriedly clapping her hands, Bai Yixuan said with relief: "Don't worry, King Chu is fine." But it was because of the assassination of the king of Chu that the princess of Chu was so anxious that she misunderstood something, and thought it was me who poisoned her. But I'm a woman, who grew up in the deep palace since I was a child, where have I ever seen those things? But Princess Chu didn't listen to it, and decided that I had poisoned ......"

Hearing this, Xiao Ningyu was angry, and couldn't help but scold: "This Luo Qingluan is just rude and willful, relying on himself to marry the King of Chu, and no one takes it seriously." Hum! ”

"Hey, forget it, this is understandable, isn't she also worried about King Chu?"

With a very understanding look, Bai Yixuan said: "Later, Princess Chu came to me and asked me to hand over the antidote, but I really didn't have it." Princess Chu didn't believe it and ...... impulsively As a result, I ......"

"Luo Qingluan dares to hit you?" Xiao Ningyu's face turned red, and she snorted coldly: "This stinky woman, I will definitely teach her a good lesson." ”

"The lesson is so bad that if Princess Duanrou can win the literary exam, I will be happy for you." Bai Yixuan said with a smile.

"Don't worry, I will definitely win against Luo Qingluan!"

Seeing Bai Yixuan's pale face, even if she smeared fat powder on her face, she couldn't hide the haggard expression, Xiao Ningyu felt a surge of qi in her chest.

Luo Qingluan, right? Hum! She must defeat Luo Qingluan and teach her a lesson!

Wait and see!
