Xie Cang was stunned and looked at Su Qi'an a little sluggishly.

He really didn't expect Su Qi'an to say such a thing, which made people feel weird.

There was also a period of time by Su Qi'an's side, and it was impossible for Xie Cang's wisdom not to realize something, he hesitated for a while, and then asked.

"Are you saying that in this ring competition, there will be people secretly playing ghosts?"

Su Qi'an didn't speak, and a smile appeared on his face.

Xie Cang showed a thoughtful expression, thinking about it, the importance of this ring competition to both sides is self-evident.

If it was just a simple competition, it wouldn't have made such a big move.

On the surface, it seems that I want to challenge in the name of learning, but behind the scenes, I am afraid that there is already an undercurrent.

No one knows what the outcome of this competition will be, judging from the last imperial city banquet, Showa Incheon has a more or less relationship with the two princes.

Last time, it was to deal with Su Qi'an, but this time, who knows if the two sides have any other actions in private.

If these two really collude secretly and make ghosts, this competition in the ring is really as Su Qi'an said, and there is no chance of winning.

If you really want to get to this point, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Xie Cang couldn't accept this result, after all, it was about the big cool face and the future policy towards Fusang.

Did the two princes really have such courage to secretly collude and deliberately lose this competition in front of everyone?

That end is more serious than the people of the whole city spraying to death, which is more serious, the two princes should be able to distinguish which is more serious.

Xie Cang's face changed, and in Su Qi'an's expectation, he put down the teacup and said with a smile.

"Don't worry so much, it's just my personal thoughts, it's nothing, maybe I'm thinking too much."

"If you want to find out whether there is a ghost in this ring competition, you have to have an in-depth understanding, there are Tong Zhan and Su Yong, at least you can see some eyebrows, what we can do now is to wait for the arrival of the ring competition with peace of mind."

Xie Cang nodded, indeed, instead of worrying too much at the moment, it is better to deal with it indifferently and quietly wait for the ring competition to come.

It will be clear what kind of development will be made at a glance.

Of course, if the two princes really dare to deliberately manipulate and lose the ring competition, whatever they say, Xie Cang will also expose them, and he will inevitably ask His Majesty to punish them severely.

The election outside the city gate continued, and after two days of hard work, there were about 30 people who passed the first round.

It seems like a lot, but compared to the competition of at least 10,000 people in the past two days, it is really one in a hundred.

The 30 or so people who were selected were sent to a mansion in Kyoto Castle.

This mansion is not a garden, but a private residence of Sutai in one of the cities of Kyoto.

This house is not to be inhabited, it is simply to be liked, like a collector's item.

There are at least a dozen residences like this in Kyoto City.

For this ring competition, Su Tai deliberately took out one of them, not only to provide them with rest.

It is also to prepare for the second round of tests, and the people in the city naturally don't know what the process of these two rounds of tests is.

At noon on the third day, the list of nine people for this ring competition was finally announced.

The first five people, not surprisingly, were from the hands of the two princes and the three princes.

These five people are still very famous in Kyoto City, and their strength is not bad, and they all have a record of killing people on the list of killers, and two of them are one of the personal guards of the national prince.

With such a master to fight, the people in the city are convinced, and it is enough to see that the princes and princes have made a bloody investment.

Compared with the first five, the people in the city pay more attention to the four people who are selected later.

Among the latter four, the two leaders have the names of Su Yong and Tong Zhan, and as for the other two, they are also masters who have been famous for a long time in Daliang, these two people don't like to be bound and like to be alone.

have all had the outstanding record of being alone and destroying more than 100 mountains.

This time he appeared, in order to fight for Liangren and not be looked down upon by the little Fusang.

These two masters who have been famous for a long time were selected, which also convinced the people, but looking at Tong Zhan and Su Yong, there were some unfamiliar names, and they suddenly whispered.

These two people, among the masters in Kyoto, are not among them at all, just like two ordinary people, who came out at once.

Although they won the first round of the forbidden army masters, among the other thirty or so people who were shortlisted, there were many more famous than them.

I didn't expect those famous ones who were not selected, and the two places that were so important were topped by nobodies who came from nowhere.

There is no controversy about this, then there is a fake, all kinds of voices of discussion emerge in an endless stream, and many people hold the mentality that these two must have been selected through a backdoor relationship, and spread rumors in Kyoto City.

It's just that this rumor didn't last long, and the background identities of the two were revealed.

There is only one sentence, "The two of them are from the Dongshan Marquis's mansion, and they are the personal guards of the Dongshan Marquis." ”

It was this sentence that made all kinds of rumors dissipate in an instant.

The noisy atmosphere in the city was suddenly quiet, and those who took the lead in the rumors were like rats crossing the street, each of them kept silent and cautious, for fear of being involved in something.

The most powerful person in the current Kyoto City, in addition to the two high-ranking princes, is no longer the Kyoto magnates, but the Marquis of Dongshan, who is in the limelight.

This Dongshan Marquis can be said to be not afraid of heaven and earth, no matter who provokes him, he will dare to turn his face with you.

The imperial city banquet a few days ago is the best proof that carrying the corpse into the palace and making a big fuss about the imperial city banquet, and finally made the prince of Fusang bow his head and admit his mistake, and the ministers also suffered.

But in the end, he was unharmed and retreated, although among them, His Majesty protected him, but if he didn't have excellent skills, how could he let the current son value him so much.

After the banquet in the imperial city, this Dongshan Marquis was properly on the blacklist of the major powerful families in Kyoto, and he was a thorn in the eye, and he couldn't wait to get rid of it quickly.

I heard that even His Majesty has a crisis of confidence in him, but in this undercurrent of crisis, his upward momentum is more fierce than before, as if no one can stop it.

Coupled with the Fusang delegation's entry into Beijing, even if the ministers hated him and hated him, they could only put aside their calculations against him for the time being and concentrate on facing the ring competition.

In this situation, the entire Kyoto City did not have the ability to make a move against the Marquis of Higashiyama, and it was impossible to make a move, which temporarily formed a vacuum.

For this person, even the most powerful people in Kyoto City can't spare their hands to deal with him, let alone these small people who follow the trend and rumors and fish in troubled waters.

If they don't stop it in time, the rumors will become bigger, and they will be noticed by Dongshan Hou, and when they want to stop it, it will be too late.

They are just small people who fish in troubled waters, take the opportunity to make trouble, and take advantage of loopholes, but they don't have such a big background behind them.

If you really want to anger the imposing Dongshan Hou, they are definitely dead and have no place to be buried. You can't even run away.

Therefore, in any case, it is important to stop in time and save your life, and the rumors also depend on the situation and timing.

Although I don't know what the strength of Tong Zhan and Su Yong is, being able to serve as the personal guard of Dongshan Hou is enough to show that the two have something special.

Now they are obediently waiting for the ring competition to start, and the rest will be lively.

The list of the nine people of Da Liang Fang was announced, and naturally it also passed into the hands of Showa Incheon.

He glanced at the list of nine people in his hand, his face was calm, he nodded slightly, his eyes stayed on the names of Tong Zhan and Su Yong for a while, and then handed the list in his hand to De Kangjie.

"Teacher, this competition in the ring, it seems that Da Liang still attaches great importance to it, several of them are good, and even the students have the intention of getting rid of them quickly."

De Kangsuke glanced at the list of nine people, looked unconcerned, and said softly.

"Da Liang is a big country, it is not surprising that there are some masters with outstanding strength, these people don't mean much to us."

"The strength of a country does not depend on a dozen masters with good strength, if this is the case, the two of them will not secretly contact you, what we have to do is how to perform this ring competition well."

"I don't lose my courtesy, but I also give those two enough face."

"Well, the teacher is right, please rest assured that the students have already arranged it, this ring competition must be foolproof, the only thing that may have some accidents may be the two people sent by the Dongshan Hou Mansion."

De Kangsuke nodded, got up slowly, and dropped a word before turning to leave.

"If you find an accident, then put it out, such a trivial matter, you can be measured, and deal with it yourself."

Showa Incheon nodded slightly, half-kneeling to send De Kangsuke away, not long after De Kangsuke left, Showa Incheon half sit, drank the teacup in front of him, and said softly.

"Musashi, this time it's time to fight for face for us Fuso, what to do then, you can do it."

Behind Showa Incheon, in the dark corner of the gazebo, a smoke eerily appeared, no one in the smoke, but a muffled voice was heard.

"My subordinates understand."

Soon after the list of nine players from the Da Liang side was announced, the Fusang delegation also announced the list of nine players.

Regarding the list of participants announced by the Fuso delegation, the people of Kyoto City did not pay much attention.

Who is the person in Fusang, what does it have to do with them, it is just an island country, can there be any peerless masters?

Even if there are, how many can compare with their vast and rich Da Liang?

And the name is not Inoue, Inoshita, or Nakamura, Kojiro, Musashi, Fujiwara...

This name makes people look at it, and they can't be interested in it, where is the name of the master, it feels like a number.

This is not the arrogance of the people in the city, but the great cool of living in the vast land and rich resources, which brings them a kind of pride.

With the passage of time, the long-awaited ring competition has finally arrived.
