readx;? The sudden heavy rain at night muffled the sound of everything, and the hunters in the woods were hurriedly dodging their shadows, and by the way, under the cover of the night, they could see if there could be more gains. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Because of Lei Yue's interference, Lei Yue gave up the preparation of attacking the people of the Yang family when he was hunting in the forest, and while Lei Yun was afraid that she would do something impulsive, he was also afraid that the Yang family would do something, so he simply did not let Lei Yue participate in the part of the hunting competition.
Although the little girl was a little unwilling, because of this incident, she felt that she was much more sensible than before, so she listened to Lei Yun's words, not to mention, she heard her brother say that the emperor had already arranged this matter, so she obediently listened to their arrangement, as long as she could avenge the second uncle, let her do anything.
Looking out the window, the raindrops slapping the leaves, Emperor Zhaohua was slightly distracted, he already had a decision in his heart, and he had already ordered people to go down to prepare, and now the situation has no choice but for him not to make such a decision, I only hope that such a blow can firmly trap the Yang family one by one......
"It's all arranged. Hearing the slight sound behind him, Lu Nancheng knew that this was Ying Yi's return, so he asked, of course, he said that he was asking, but his tone was affirmative, because he knew that Ying Yi's ability would never let him down.
"Yes. Ying Yi returned respectfully, this time he arranged for his brothers to desperately complete the task, last time, it was because of their mistakes that they did not find out the intentions of the Yang family in time, so that General Lei had an accident, this time, in addition to the plan of Emperor Zhaohua, it was also for the Lei family, naturally there could not be a little problem.
"Good. Emperor Zhaohua responded, but his eyes kept staring at the peony in the yard, which had long passed the flowering period, and the leaves were fluttering in the wind and rain, as if they were crumbling......
In the early morning of the second day, Emperor Zhaohua's imperial palace set off to Jianzhang Palace, because it was the seventh day, in the morning, it would first count the hunting after a night to determine the winner, and then, in the afternoon, it was the end of the conference, so it was necessary for Emperor Zhaohua to be present.
Although it was a heavy rain last night, and it was hunting at night, I was afraid that something would go wrong, and many of the responsible officials present were very nervous.
Therefore, now these people can be said to be all soldiers, I am afraid that something will go wrong, the last time it was in broad daylight, if something goes wrong, it will be even more uncontrollable, this night, the forest itself is restless, and it has caught up with heavy rain, if there is a cry for help, it will not be heard.
Therefore, many officials also came to the entrance and exit of the forest early, looking forward to it, and secretly praying in their hearts that there would be no problems.
Fortunately, after the second day, only one or two contestants did not have any more accidents because they encountered ferocious prey, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, because the four-nation meeting could be regarded as a safe time.
Wait for the contestants to be invited to the square, and then the injured will be quickly invited to the doctor to come for treatment, and by the way, send someone in to count the prey, before entering, everyone's arrows are marked differently, and even if the arrows are used up, the contestants can also use the dagger at hand and other tools, leaving marks as the proof of the final count.
As the carts of prey slowly walked out of the forest, the people in the square let out bursts of cheers, in addition to expressing their respect for the hunters who spent the night in the forest bravely, but also because Deng Qing had said it earlier.
The prey obtained after this hunting, everyone in the shed can get a piece of meat, of course, the families of those court officials don't care much about these, but many ordinary people are different, although they will not eat meat, but this is the royal hunting ground, to eat such game, of course, it is difficult to hide the excitement in my heart.
Soon Emperor Zhaohua also arrived at the square, watched Deng Qing and others preside over the first place of the martial arts, and said a few words of congratulations casually, and then went to the palace to rest and wait for the end of the afternoon.
In the afternoon, the enthusiasm of everyone in the shed was naturally undiminished, not only because the four-nation conference was about to come to an end, but also because they would usher in the final ranking of countries.
This ranking of countries is also unique to the Four-Nation Conference, and this rule can be traced back to the earliest "Four-Nations", since the ranking of the participants in each event is recorded at the Four-Nation Congress, so the ranking of countries can be derived from this.
In this regard, everyone in Xuanchi Kingdom is naturally very excited, because after this multi-day competition, the contestants of Xuanchi Kingdom have obtained a very good ranking, which makes everyone have a sense of pride from within, of course, they can't wait to listen to the people on the stage announce the final results.
However, before that, it is natural to invite the top three winners of each project to come up and register again on the spot, so as to ensure a certain degree of fairness.
"Eh, I just did the math, we're likely to take first place this time. "In the position of Xuan Chiguo in the shed, a little girl who didn't get the ranking was talking to the people around her.
"That's naturally good, but it's a pity that I didn't get a good ranking, alas......" The people on the side obviously couldn't stand on the top, and they felt a little lost.
"Don't sigh, how can you say it, you also tried your best, besides, our country may win the first place, be happy!" Although the little girl was also a little disappointed in her heart, she saw that her companion's reaction was not very good, so she cheered up, patted her on the shoulder, and smiled and told her not to think about it anymore.
"Look, Lord Deng is about to announce the results. Seeing Deng Qing take the excerpt from the judges, his eyes were full of excitement.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time, so let's summarize the ranking of each project first. Deng Qing cleared his throat and said slowly, and the people below heard the voice, and they all consciously quieted down, waiting for him to continue.
"First of all, the first place in the men's group of the first day of the painting competition is the Xuanchi people, the second place is the Xihai people, the third is the North Underworld people, the first place in the women's group is the Nanning people, the second place is the Danse people, and the third is the Xuanchi people, let us cheer for the winners!" Deng Qing read the situation of the first day, and then read the results of the calligraphy, piano skills, chess, dance and martial arts competitions in the future.
"In the end, the Xuanchi Kingdom has won the first place five times, the Northern Underworld Kingdom four times, the Xihai Kingdom three times, and the Nanning Kingdom three times, so ......" Deng Qing stretched his voice a little, "The country that finally won the first place is the Xuanchi Kingdom!"
As soon as the words fell, bursts of cheers broke out on the field, and the subjects of Xuanchi Country all had excited smiles on their faces, even Emperor Zhaohua, who had always been reluctant to smile on such occasions, seemed to have softened a lot on his face, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, which could be seen that this Ninth Five-Year Supreme was in a very good mood.
Then Emperor Zhaohua got up, and when he saw that the emperor stood up, the voices of everyone on the field slowly subsided, knowing that the emperor was going to speak.
"Thank you to all of you for participating in this four-nation conference, everyone present has worked hard, next, please enjoy it, I declare that this four-nation conference is over!"
The envoys of some countries present also left one after another, today is to clean up well, these two days should leave for the homeland, but many contestants have stayed, there are a lot of scholars from the academy, around them to ask questions, the scene is harmonious, followed by the singing, dancing, wine and meat, so happy.
Shen Yuan and some of the concubines who came to the palace to compete also left the court early because of their special status, and they arranged for someone to pack up their things earlier, and returned to the palace after Emperor Zhaohua's imperial court.
In the next few days, it was those envoys who came to make the final pilgrimage, and then left the Xuanchi country one after another, feeling that all of a sudden, the prosperity had passed, and the streets of the capital seemed to be no different from the past, as if the lantern was in a dream.
Post Station, the Imperial Court of the Northern Underworld.
"General Shangguan, the manpower here is all ready, and we can prepare to leave in the afternoon. Master Shi found Shangguan Dongdun and said, his words were very polite.
Not to mention that this Shangguan Dongton's identity is not ordinary, it is the matter of the crown prince this time, after going back, the emperor must have asked General Shangguan, although it seems that the matter is not handled well, but Lord Shi doesn't care about this, his purpose has always been just to protect himself, not to find out what real framer.
Therefore, these days, he is trying his best to persuade Shangguan Dongton, so that he continues to doubt that thunder, don't have any different ideas, otherwise, if after going back, this person still has doubts about this matter to the emperor, then he is not only unable to keep the black yarn hat, I am afraid that it will be difficult to protect the head of this matter.
"Okay, General Ben's side is all in order, it's just ...... I always feel a little uncomfortable in my heart. Shangguan Dongdun dreamed of the man's blood splashing out for several days, and always felt that he had missed something.
"General Shangguan, I'm afraid I'm not used to the water and soil here, I'm not feeling well and I've been too tired recently, don't think about it, the thunder is dead, and the evidence is in front of you!" Master Shi continued to comfort him.
"Hmm...... Let's go back and report it first. Shangguan Dongdun waved his hand and asked him to go first, and then they would go on the road together, still thinking in his heart that he would report this matter to the emperor when he went back, and he needed to check it again.
Lord Shi saw him like that and knew that it was not good, it seemed that he had to make a lot of effort to comfort him on the way, and he had a certain idea, so he hurried down to arrange for him to be ready to set off at any time, at this time, they would never have thought that this road would never go back to the Northern Underworld......
