Chapter 276: The Jin Man's Provocation Is Coming
The test match was in full swing, and the county, state, and provincial competitions were screened layer by layer, and the folk heroes came out one after another, and the dragons and tigers fought each other, which was wonderful.
In the county-level competition, the 30-zhang running event has attracted countless eyeballs, and there are endless winners with excellent results, which is eye-catching.
At the state and provincial level, the competition is getting hotter, and every contestant is fighting for glory with all their might.
Time is like an arrow, the sun and the moon are like a shuttle, and in a blink of an eye, it ushered in the grand occasion of the Grand Song Finals.
After layers of selection, 120 people finally stood out and successfully shortlisted for this pinnacle showdown.
In order to let more people witness this feast, Zhao Yingluo assigned the Ministry of Engineering as early as the ninth day of the Lunar New Year to start building a stadium that can accommodate tens of thousands of people.
Today, this magnificent building has stood in the middle of the capital and has become the focus of heated discussions.
On the day of the finals, the stadium was full of seats. Spectators waved coloured flags and cheered on their supporters.
At this exciting moment, Zhao Yingluo and the courtiers sat in the best seats, overlooking the entire arena.
Her heart was full of anticipation and pride, because she knew that this game was not only a feast of sports competition, but also a symbol of the national strength of the Great Song Dynasty.
However, to Zhao Yingluo's surprise, there were Jin and Xixia people in the finals.
She frowned slightly, and asked Zhu Shengfei beside her: "Zhu Qing's family, what's going on?" Why are the Jin and Tangut in our game? ”
Zhu Shengfei bowed down and replied: "Your Royal Highness Princess, after the Jin Kingdom learned that my Great Song Dynasty held a national fitness competition, he sent people to participate. They want to take the opportunity to learn about our strengths and also show what they are capable of. As for the Tangut people, they came to participate spontaneously. ”
When Zhao Yingluo heard this, she was secretly vigilant in her heart.
She knows that this competition is no longer just a sports competition, but also a contest between countries. She asked Zhu Shengfei: "What are the results of these contestants?" ”
Zhu Shengfei showed a solemn look on his face, and said in a deep voice: "Your Royal Highness Princess, the strength of the Jin people should not be underestimated. They have already shown amazing strength during the selection process, especially their stamina and explosiveness, which surprised us. ”
After Zhao Yingluo heard this, her brows tightened. She knows that the difficulty of this match has increased a lot, but she also believes that the players of Da Song will be able to rise to the challenge and show their strength.
She took a deep breath, calmed down her mood, and then ordered: "Zhu Qingjia, you pay close attention to the dynamics of the Jin people and the Xixia people, and report to me in time if there is any situation." ”
Zhu Shengfei bowed down to receive the order, and Zhao Yingluo refocused his eyes on the field, silently praying in his heart that the Da Song players could achieve good results.
She knew that this match meant a lot to Da Song, and she couldn't lose it no matter what!
After instructing Zhu Shengfei, Zhao Yingluo breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to recast her gaze on the tense arena, but suddenly felt a strange gaze wandering on her.
She looked back and saw Wanyan Ningjie, the new envoy of the Jin Kingdom, sitting not far away, looking at her with a smug expression.
Wan Yan Ning Jie was wearing a gorgeous gold robe and a golden crown, and the whole person looked extravagant.
There was an indescribable confidence and arrogance in his gaze, as if he had foreseen Jin Guo's brilliant victory in this match.
Seeing Zhao Yingluo turn around, Wan Yan Ningjie smiled slightly, picked up the wine glass in his hand, and greeted Zhao Yingluo from afar. His toasting was elegant and calm, as if he was showing Zhao Yingluo the demeanor and upbringing of the envoy of the Jin Kingdom.
"Your Royal Highness, it seems that the excitement of this game has exceeded our expectations."
Wan Yan Ningjie put down his wine glass and said with a hint of provocation, "Whether it is a thirty-zhang run or a three-hundred-zhang run, our warriors of the Dajin Kingdom will definitely win the championship." What do you think, Your Highness the Princess? ”
When Zhao Yingluo heard this, her brows furrowed slightly. She naturally heard the provocative meaning in Wan Yan Ningjie's words, and she couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in her heart.
But she knew that at this moment, she couldn't lose her temper, let alone let Jin Guoren see her anger and uneasiness.
She took a deep breath, calmed down her mood, and then smiled and said to Wanyan Ningjie: "Wanyan Messenger, the result of the game is not something that can be said by mouth. What is the strength of the warriors of your Jin Country, you still have to see the real chapter on the field. I believe that our Da Song players will go all out and show their strength. ”
Wanyan Ningjie listened to Zhao Yingluo's words, smiled disapprerovingly, and said, "Her Royal Highness the princess is right, the result of the competition really has to be spoken by strength. However, I believe that the warriors of our Jin Kingdom will not disappoint Her Royal Highness. They will definitely use their strength to prove that Jin Guo is the real king of this game. ”
When Zhao Yingluo heard this, she sneered in her heart. She knew that Wan Yan Ningjie was deliberately provoking herself, wanting to provoke herself and make herself lose her mind in the game. She won't be fooled so easily!
She glanced at Yan Ning Jie lightly, and then said, "Since the Wanyan Envoy is so confident, let's wait and see." I'm sure it's going to be a great match. ”
After speaking, Zhao Yingluo no longer paid attention to Yan Ningjie and set her eyes on the arena again. She had already made up her mind in her heart to let Da Song win in this game no matter what! She not only wants to let the people of Jin Guo see the strength and demeanor of the Great Song Dynasty, but also let them know that the Great Song Dynasty is not easy to mess with!
Wan Yanning saw that Zhao Yingluo no longer paid attention to herself, nor was she angry. He smiled slightly, picked up his glass and took a sip. He knew that his goal had been achieved, and Zhao Yingluo had already been angered by his own success.
However, the results of the next game were like a basin of cold water, poured on Zhao Yingluo's heart.
In the 30 zhang running event, after fierce competition, the list of ten people who entered the finals was announced, and Da Song only accounted for three places! The remaining four are players from the Jin Kingdom, and three are players from Western Xia. In the more intense 300 zhang race, Da Song's situation was even more bleak, and only two people squeezed into the final list.
Such a result made Zhao Yingluo's face extremely ugly.
She pursed her lips tightly, her eyes revealing indescribable disappointment and anger.
She didn't expect that the strength of the players of Jin Guo and Xixia would be so strong that she couldn't hold down the players of Da Song, and she didn't expect that she would get such a result after preparing for so long in the competition.
At the same time, Wan Yan Ningjie's face showed an even more triumphant smile.
He glanced at Zhao Yingluo, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a mocking arc, as if to say: "Your Royal Highness Princess, look, this is the strength of our Jin Country warriors!" You Da Song are not our opponents at all! ”
