The entrance of the Prime Minister's House.

Several women sent Chen Chao and Ning Baizhi to the carriage, and Tang Bao was clamoring to follow up the palace to see the excitement, Chen Chao had no choice but to take her to go with her, anyway, after entering the palace for a while, it would be easy to throw her to her uncle Murong Chong after entering the palace for a while, and it would not be troublesome.

The car turned slowly, and in the car, the three of them stared at each other.

"Remember, you can only win, you can't lose!" Chen Chao reminded again.

"Got it."

Ning Baizhi replied nonchalantly, Chen Chao didn't know how many times she had said it, and her ears were calloused.

Today, she specially changed into a more slim dark suit, just to enter the palace and compete with Zhou Shuli.

Babbling.

The second daughter looked at Chen Chao curiously, Chen Chao fumbled, took out a flintlock pistol wrapped in oilcloth from under the saddle, and handed it to Ning Baizhi:

"Here, take this."

Ning Baizhi looked at the spear in her hand, frowned and said puzzled:

"What are you doing with this?"

Chen Chao said with a face: "After going on the field, I directly shot Zhou Shuli to save trouble." ”

Ning Baizhi: "......"

Sugar Treasure held her fingers in her mouth, opened her big round eyes, and looked curiously at the big thick stick in her second mother's hand.

Ning Baizhi glanced at the flintlock pistol in her hand a few times, returned it, and shirked: "I don't want it, isn't it pure bullying to compete with others with this." ”

Ning Baizhi knew that this thing was powerful, and there was a bloody hole with one shot.

Take this, let alone one Zhou Shuli, even ten Zhou Shuli can't beat her.

"My generation of Jianghu people pays attention to acting above board, and the competition must be fair and just."

Ning Baizhi said that she would not take a flintlock pistol anything, she wanted to use her strength to defeat Zhou Shuli.

Chen Chao stupidly wrapped the flintlock pistol again and threw it under the saddle, this is not worried that Zhou Shuli has hidden some strength, Ning Baizhi had an accident when he competed with him, and Chen Chao was also out of kindness.

Ning Baizhi knew that Chen Chao was worried, patted her chest, and swore to him:

"Xiangye, don't worry, I will definitely win!"

Compared with Ning Baizhi's self-confidence, Chen Chao lost his previous self-confidence.

I don't know why, he is a little panicked now.

Knowing that after Ning Baizhi showed his true strength, he would definitely be able to defeat Zhou Shuli, but he still panicked.

“...... No matter what, it's a good comparison, this one, be sure to play the majesty of my Daji martial arts. ”

Ning Baizhi nodded.

Before reaching the Imperial City, the carriage was forced to stop.

Lifting the curtain and looking out, I saw that several main roads leading to the imperial city were full of people who came to join in the fun, crowded with people, and noisy.

The coachman grabbed the reins, turned his head and said to Chen Chao in the car: "Xiangye, you can't pass ahead, the villain will call the forbidden army to come and open the way." ”

Chen Chao nodded, lifted the curtain and jumped out of the carriage, hugging his daughter Tangbao, while Ning Baizhi jumped off by herself, but fortunately, the carriage was not high.

A team of forbidden troops soon rushed over, blocking the people and opening a "special passage" for the Chen Dynasty's family of three.

Under the escort of the forbidden army, the Chen Dynasty family successfully entered the imperial city, and when they looked up, the white jade square outside the main hall was densely packed, even if there were only courtiers and magnates, there were enough thousands of people gathered, and most of the officials dragged their families to see the excitement.

In the long corridor of the sunshade outside the main hall, several desks temporarily set up are lined up, Wenchang Pavilion is rested, and several scholars led by Qin Xiangru are seated in it, and the rest are the top handful of magnates in Daji who are qualified to sit there, including Xu Boyan, the protector of the country.

The middle and highest position is naturally Empress Daji's, and even the dragon case has been moved out, but that position is still empty, and it is still early.

Chen Chao glanced at it as he walked towards the military attaché's area with Sugar Treasure.

Murong Chong was chatting with a few colleagues in Kandashan, when he saw Chen Chao coming and hurriedly stood up, and the other generals saw Chen Chao salute one after another.

After Chen Chao threw the sugar treasure to her uncle to take care of, he took Ning Baizhi to the corridor to take a seat, and his position was closest to the Empress of Daji.

Seeing that Chen Chao was late, several scholars were not surprised, Qin Xiangru sat on Chen Chao's right hand, and saw Chen Chao coming over and leaning over to chat with him.

.......

Meanwhile.

On the Hanbaishi Square, simple pergolas have been erected on both sides.

On one side is the area of the Chronicle officials, and on the other side is where the envoys of the various countries are located.

There was no dissatisfaction with such an arrangement.

In the pergola of Chu State, Chu Yan, the prince of Chu State, sat comfortably and tasted the wine and fruits on the desk.

Zhou Shuli, who was wearing a Confucian shirt and holding a paper fan, was standing behind him, raising his eyes and looking at the Manchu Dynasty civil and military affairs of Daji, the prince and the noble, with a little disdain in his eyes.

"Zhou Shuli, today's competition is not only about winning or losing, but also about the face of the two countries.

Zhou Shuli raised his hand lightly and saluted Chu Yan: "Obey the orders of His Royal Highness the Prince, if your subordinates lose, they are willing to apologize." ”

Chu Yan snorted, and then said: "Today, you not only have to defeat those who dare to come to the stage to challenge, but also provoke Chen Chao to do it with you personally." ”

Hearing this, Zhou Shuli was very stunned.

But seeing the expression on Chu Yan's face, he understood.

Chu Yan looked around, and seeing that no one around him noticed him, he handed a square wooden box in his cuff to Zhou Shuli.

Zhou Shuli stretched out his hand to take it, opened it and saw that his breathing was obviously stagnant.

If you are not mistaken, this lilac pill is the Tiger Pei Yuan Dan.

After taking it, it can sweep away the previous decline and instantly increase the power of the Ten Tigers, which is infinitely powerful.

With this, what did he lose in this competition?

On the other side, in a pergola, Meng Wu and his two daughters also came to watch the competition, and Meng Changge saw Chen Chao sitting closest to the dragon case, talking and laughing with the surrounding officials, and he was proud for a while.

Chen Chao is worthy of being her man, she wants to have an identity, and she wants to have a status.

People live in this world, isn't it just to fight for this breath, although she is not married to Chen Chao, but her man is the focus wherever he goes outside, she is happy and proud in her heart.

"Changge, Dad told you to go up and compete with Zhou Shuli in a while."

"Huh?"

Meng Changge waved his hand and said: "This is Daji and the Chu State fighting, what does it have to do with our Qin State?" I'm not going. ”

Meng Changlan chuckled.

Only then did Meng Changge realize that her sister was making fun of her, after all, Chen Chao didn't seem to have anyone available in his hands now, and Zhou Shuli had to say another thing if he couldn't fight.

Meng Wu glanced at the two daughters a few times and interjected: "You two sisters are relatively close to Chen Chao, according to you, who will Chen Chao send to fight this time?" ”

The two sisters glanced at each other, and Meng Changge said: "It seems to be Ning Baizhi, the Chen Dynasty is going to send his second lady to fight, oh, that's it." ”

Following Meng Chang's fingers, Meng Wu, who had gray temples, squinted his eyes and saw the girl in a strong suit behind Chen Chao.

He frowned, puzzled.

Meng Changlan explained: "Ning Baizhi was born in the Ning family in Yunzhou, my father should have heard of the name of the Ning family, and the Ning family is a must. ”

Speaking of this, Meng Wu remembered, pinched his chin, and said lightly:

"Although the Ning family has a great light skill, it is difficult for ordinary martial artists to touch them, but in today's one-on-one competition, what is the use of light skills? Can you keep hiding from the war? ”

Meng Wu's words are reasonable and well-founded, and people can't refute them.

But Meng Changge didn't think so.

She had witnessed Ning Baizhi defeat Tang Jialie, who was ranked ninth on the heavenly list, with only thirty moves, and Ning Baizhi did not use light skills in the ring that day.

Ning Baizhi defeated Tang Jialie without using the martial arts she was good at, and her strength was extraordinary.

In the past month, due to Zhou Shuli's fame, people have ignored this girl who has created brilliant achievements for a while.

As long as Zhou Shuli dares to underestimate the enemy, he will definitely plant a big heel.

After waiting for a while, as a figure wearing a dragon robe appeared in the corridor, the noisy sound in the square suddenly quieted down.

The Empress Yingying of the Great Era is now eleven years old, much taller than her peers, and she is already slim.

The empress walked to the dragon chair, first saluted Chen Chao respectfully, called her father, and then sat down on the dragon chair.

The empress looked around, and after accepting the worship, she waved her hand:

"Let's get started—"
