3 Take advantage of Ling Dong Dance
There really is an arrow that breaks the intestines. There is heartburn liquor. Xiao Haotian kissed and kissed. Suddenly despair. If there is no hope. Despair doesn't hurt so much.
Outside the tent, the sky was dimly bright. Xiao Haotian still hugged Ling Dongwu tightly. It's like holding the most important treasure. Until the horizon lights up little by little. A hint of orange slowly stains the sky red. He heard movement outside the tent. I couldn't help but sigh softly. "Zhou Ze. Come on in. ”
Zhou Ze took over Ling Dongwu from Xiao Haotian. Looking at Ling Dongwu's slightly swollen lips. I think the eldest brother was driven crazy by lovesickness. Otherwise, he is such a proud man. How could he take advantage of Ling Dongwu to fall asleep. Do this kind of thing.
Zhou Ze saw Xiao Haotian disappear. woke up Ling Dongwu: "It's dawn." Let's go back. ”
Ling Dongwu rubbed his eyes: "I'm asleep." Why don't you wake me up. I didn't even accompany you. ”
"Why didn't you scream. But you slept like a pig. I can't wake up no matter what. ”
"Ahh Is it. Ling Dongwu sneered. She didn't know what it was like to fall asleep. As for whether it looks like a pig. She wanted to go back and ask Mu Zicheng secretly.
Zhou Ze saw Ling Dongwu's rare stupidity. Gentle smile: "I'll take you to see more beautiful scenery in the future." The hour is getting late. Let's hurry back. ”
The two rode back to the inn together. Ling Dongwu waved his hand at Zhou Ze: "Dude." Good bye. He turned around and ran into the inn.
Ling Dongwu was about to walk back to the room lightly. The door on the opposite side squeaked open. Ling Dongwu immediately turned around. It felt like she had just stepped out of the room.
She saw that it was Xia Wenxuan standing at his door.
Xia Wenxuan looked at Ling Dongwu, who was dressed and standing at the door early in the morning. Puzzled, he asked, "Dongwu." You're going out so early. ”
"Ahh It's about going out for a walk. But it felt too cold in the morning. I'll go back to the house and lie down for a while. After Ling Dongwu finished speaking, he immediately turned around and went into his room. Even she admires her cleverness.
Two days later. The Northern Desert Palace finally has news. He asked them, the envoys of Nanzhao, to participate in and observe the election and safari of Lord Batu of the Six Ministries half a month later. After that, the prisoners of war were released. Go back to Nanzhao with them.
"What. Are these Northern Desert people exhibitionist? Why do you want to leave us as spectators? It took them more than a month to campaign and go on safari. Let's go back to Nanzhao in half a year. Ling Dongwu heard the news. began to shout loudly about dissatisfaction.
It's been almost four months since I came out. Ling Dongwu really missed Mu Zicheng. She hated Xiao Haotian completely in her heart. It's all his fault. Let yourself come to this northern desert. It's a year less than a year to go back and forth. This time, let the envoys of Nanzhao go on a safari with them. It must have been Xiao Haotian's idea.
But no matter how angry Ling Dong danced, he jumped to his feet. After all, the little arm can't twist the thigh. She must stay with the people of the emissary group to participate in the election of the six Batu lords of the Northern Desert Country.
However, the roof leak happened to rain overnight. Two days before the start of the election campaign for Lord Batu in the Northern Desert Country. Xia Wenxuan suffered from the cold. Sick in bed. Ling Dongwu almost suspected that Xia Wenxuan was faking illness.
In Xia Wenxuan's house. She saw that her face was gray. The eye socket is somewhat sunken. Xia Wenxuan, who was lying weakly on the bed. Only then did she believe that Xia Wenxuan was really sick.
"Lord Wang. You're all right. Ling Dongwu looked surprised and worried.
Xia Wenxuan was a little mentally poor under the torture of illness. The hoarse voice said to Ling Dongwu, "Dongwu." This time, the king of the Northern Desert could not participate. Otherwise, you should stay at the inn as well. Let Lord Sun Changfu of the cabinet take our people to participate in the six competition of the Northern Desert Country. I'm afraid something will happen to me in the middle of this safari. I don't worry about you. "Finished. Xia Wenxuan coughed violently. Zhang Xiaolu next to him hurriedly brought tea. He took a sip.
Ling Dongwu saw that Xia Wenxuan was sick like this, and he still remembered himself. I was moved in my heart. said: "It's better for me to go with Master Sun and them." In case something happens. One more person gives you more power. Don't let our Nanzhao Kingdom lose face too much in front of these Northern Desert people. ”
Xia Wenxuan nodded slightly. "East Dance. Then you have to be careful in everything. If there is something. Send a message back to the king at once. ”
"Lord Wang. You can rest assured that you can recuperate here. ”
After Ling Dongwu exited the room. Xia Wenxuan let out a long sigh. Close your eyes. He was really faking illness this time. This time, he really put on a Ling Dong dance.
As soon as Xia Wenxuan heard that the Northern Desert Kingdom asked them, the envoys of the Southern Zhao, to participate in the competition together. Hunt. I know that there must be a reason. in the race. When hunting, the Northern Desert Kingdom will definitely deliberately embarrass him at a banquet. Embarrassing him.
At the banquet, Ling Dongwu helped him out. But he's a dignified king. You can't always rely on Ling Dongwu to relieve him. And the people of the Northern Desert are good at shooting. Brave. There were more opportunities to embarrass them in competitions and hunting. He thought about it, and the only way to go was to pretend to be sick. In this way, even if the envoy of Nanzhao lost face in the competition. It's not a big problem. But if he loses face. Let him have the face to return to Nanzhao.
He really designed Ling Dongwu this time. He knew Ling Dongwu's temper too well. Soft-hearted. All he had to do was say that retreat was advance. Ling Dongwu will definitely take the initiative to participate in this election of Lord Batu of the Six Divisions of the Northern Desert Kingdom. Organic. The talented Ling Dongwu and the envoys of Nanzhao are together. The chances of being embarrassed are a few points smaller.
Xia Wenxuan lay on the bed. Thinking that he was really deliberately using Ling Dongwu this time. There was a faint feeling of guilt in my heart. But as soon as he thought that Ling Dongwu was going to marry Mu Zicheng when he went back. This guilt turned into anger. "That's fine. Who made her not know what to do. I have to leave this king. Then don't blame this king for being ruthless. Xia Wenxuan didn't know at this time. He gently plunged Ling Dongwu into dire straits. Life in danger.
The venue for the Rokubu Batu-sama contest was on the outskirts of Shangdu. At this time, the prairie outside the imperial city was full of people. It's very lively. The high arena was set up in one place. Exudes a brutal yet glorious appeal. The audience was already surrounded by people. Whisper. Talk. On the south side of the ring. Nine great tents were erected in the distance; The yellow tent is in the center. There were four tents on each side. The location of the six tribes is indicated in the colors of each tribe. The other two large tents were made by Xiao Haotian, the king of Zhennan, and the original Lord Batu.
There are many felt tents on the grass to the north of the ring. Crowds shuttled in and out, busy with work. The officials of the Northern Desert Dynasty and the nobles of various tribes were already sitting on the seats in front of the competition platform in order. Waiting for the arrival of the Emperor.
Contestants from all tribes are also in place. And the crowd around is also from the original circle. Changed to a left and right two-sided row station. And some young people. About thirty. He also brought out his own steed and stood in the far clearing; The warriors standing in a row all had large bows on their backs. Receiving blessings from family members or teenage girls. Some are what mothers explain to their sons. Some have wives or lovers standing in front of their men. Bless your male companion.
For these warriors. What an honor it is to win. Not only can you go on a safari with the Emperor. He also participated in the six Batu adult competitions. Running for the sixth part of the Batu-sama. And not only the chiefs of the tribes had to compete. Even the subordinates and subordinates must be separated from each other.
This time, the emperor extraordinarily liberalized the policy. Once triumphantly returned. All of these warriors can be named generals. Officially inducted into the Cabinet. The Privy Council and the Ministry of War.
Ling Dongwu and the envoy of Nanzhao sat on the viewing platform together. She saw Zhou Ze standing on the stage in high spirits. I found out that he was also going to participate in the election of Lord Batu. She cast an approving look at Zhou Ze from afar. The mouth shouted: "Zhou Ze." Come on. Zhou Ze nodded lightly at her. Respond with a confident and fearless expression.
Then Ling Dongwu saw Xiao Haotian. Xiao Haotian didn't wear a military uniform today. Dressed in the costume of a Northern Desert person. Riding Narrow Rust Boots. A bewitching black hair tied into a ponytail. It has a rugged and uninhibited feel. The handsome face looks even more intimidating. It is more and more revealing a noble style.
At a time when everyone is looking forward to it. Someone announced in a loud voice: "The emperor and the princess have arrived." There was a commotion in the crowd.
The emperor left the imperial city. There was a lot of cheering all around. The chiefs and ministers of the six tribes rode all over to meet them. Ling Dongwu and others are no exception. Hop on the horse. Rush towards the city gate to meet the emperor.
Xuan Ran Shouxu held Xiao Yingyue's hand. Smiling to the stands. "Let's start the game." The emperor took Xiao Yingyue and ordered after taking a seat.
Under the Emperor's Order. The competition has officially begun. Drums beat around. The sound of trumpets resounded in the sky. The players of the six divisions lined up in six teams and walked onto the stage. Hats off to all. People of all ethnic groups in the audience shouted loudly to cheer for their tribal players.
The master of ceremonies announces the start of the competition. The players of each division will face off one by one according to the results of the draw.
Boiling on the stage. A thrilling battle was staged. Ling Dongwu watched. I think this is much more exciting than the martial arts conference. I think of the martial arts conference. She remembered Mu Zicheng. Now she can no longer run around freely like she did when she participated in the martial arts conference.
Although Ling Dongwu is straightforward. But she also knew the reason why the Northern Desert Kingdom had left them to watch the ceremony. Just trying to find trouble with them. So she is also careful everywhere. She had her eyes fixed on the ring. After watching it for a while, I began to wander. It's like a teacher lecturing on a podium. I sat down like a fugue myself. Time flies very fast. She was thinking about Mu Zicheng in her heart. Scene by scene. Bit.
In Ling Dongwu's fugue. Two days passed the game. The final round of the third day has finally arrived.
The arena was crowded with countless onlookers. The emperor and the heads of the tribes. The nobles also sat solemnly on the stage. The last to play was Zhou Ze's Ceres under the original Lord Batu. The final winner will be decided from among them. to serve as the next Lord Batuu.
On the stage. Zhou Ze looked at the god of grains calmly. Ceres' face was arrogant and disdainful. It was as if the outcome of the game was a foregone conclusion. looked like he didn't take Zhou Ze seriously at all.
