The last royal competition of the Jinxin Club has finally arrived in the spotlight!

The venue for today's competition is different from the previous five, and it was changed to the horse farm located in the northwest corner of the Guozijian.

At this moment, in a pavilion near the racecourse, a boy in a white robe for a month and a girl in red are talking.

"Liu Niang," the young man carefully took out a peace talisman from his arms, "this is what I asked for you."

The girl in red in the pavilion was exactly Fu Yunyan. I saw that she had no makeup on her face, she wore a simple ponytail, and a neat red riding uniform made her slender, well-proportioned and valiant.

She happily took the peace talisman, looking at it carefully as if she had received some treasure.

It seems a little familiar...this is...

What did she think, she blinked, and asked, "A Xin, did you ask for this from Jialan Temple?"

Fu Yunyan had also been to Jialan Temple with Nangong Yue and the others before, and knew that Jialan Temple was nicknamed "Zhuangyuan Temple", which means that her A Xin went to seek the champion for her?

It takes a thousand steps to go to the Jialan Temple!

Nangong Xin showed a shy smile and nodded.

Fu Yunyan looked at Nangong Xin for a moment, her clear eyes shone like obsidian, and her beautiful face shone brighter than the sun.

"A Xin," Fu Yunyan smiled confidently, with high spirits, "I will definitely win!"

Since she was a child, she grew up listening to her grandmother's story. She always dreamed of having the opportunity to fight for Dayu on the battlefield and fight the enemy bravely. Now, although she has not been able to set foot on the real battlefield, she finally has the opportunity to do something for Dayu. What... it can be regarded as one of her dreams.

Seeing her confident and flying appearance, Nangong Xin couldn't help laughing along, and the bright smile made his handsome face a little more childish.

He nodded vigorously and said with more certainty than her: "Liu Niang, of course you will win!"

Looking at the pair of beautiful people in the pavilion, the blue-clothed maid who was waiting outside could hardly bear to be disturbed, but as the time approached, she could only cough dryly and reminded: "Miss Fu Liu, it's almost time. You It's time to prepare."

Fu Yunyan has never been sloppy, so she immediately waved goodbye to Nangong Xin: "A Xin, I'm leaving!"

She smiled and turned away decisively, while Nangong Xin stayed in the pavilion and watched her go away with a smile...

The time passed little by little, and the Royal Competition was approaching little by little. In the Imperial College, both the contestants and the spectators were feeling more and more nervous and anxious, and this emotion also spread beyond the arena...

The Yunsheng Restaurant outside the Imperial Prison was already full, and the shopkeeper laughed so much that his double chin was about to fall off.

Those diners who knew each other, and those they didn't, all sat together and excitedly discussed the royal race that was about to start today.

"Brother Hong, do you think that Dayu can win today's Royal Tournament again?" a thin middle-aged man asked worriedly.

The one who was called Brother Hong was a tall and strong man, and he said in a rough voice, "I heard that all the girls who participated in the imperial competition this time are from generals. All of them have extraordinary riding skills, and they will definitely win!"

"This brother is right," a young man at the next table couldn't help but chat with them, "I asked my friends to inquire, and the girls from the Zhenbei General's Mansion, Yongyang's Grand Princess Mansion, and Weiyang Marquis Mansion all participated. After today's imperial competition, the Southern Barbarian Saintess is so delicate, I think she will definitely lose!"

The other diners on the side also agreed and nodded frequently.

At this time, a deep male voice suddenly said in awkward Taiyu words: "This little brother, I think you should stop bragging for your Taiyu!"

In an instant, all the diners in the restaurant "swipe" their eyes to the owner of the voice, a dark-skinned man in his early thirties. His deep eye sockets and exotic facial features made everyone Suddenly realized that this man is not Oyoto.

Judging from his businessman's attire, it is estimated that he is a businessman from an exotic land.

It is said that Nanman is in high temperature all the year round, and dark skin is one of the characteristics of most Nanman people.

The man surnamed Hong said hesitantly, "Are you from Nan... Baiyue?" He unnaturally changed the "Nanman" he almost blurted out to "Baiyue".

The merchant replied in a rough voice: "Although I am not from Baiyue, but our merchants run all over the world, and I have been to Baiyue several times, and all the girls there have learned to ride horses before they can walk. It's no exaggeration to grow up on horseback!" There was a hint of contempt in his words, "Didn't you Dayu always claim to be the country of poetry, book and etiquette? Calligraphy, painting, and chess have all lost to the saintess of Baiyue. , I'm too embarrassed to say something here!"

In fact, the dispute between Dayu and Baiyue had nothing to do with this business, but it was a bit harsh to hear that Dayu people had a "Nanman" on the left and a "Nanman" on the right.

He always knew that the people of Dayu were self-righteous and regarded the countries of the four directions as barbarians. In the past, when he came to do business here, he could only swallow his anger, but this time he had a rare opportunity to speak out freely.

The young man is full of vigor and blood. Hearing this businessman belittle Dayu in such a rude way, I really can't wait to raise my fists.

At this moment, a smiling young man suddenly said: "This uncle, since you have such confidence in the saintess of Baiyue, how about we make a bet?"

The merchant was stunned for a while, a little hesitant.

The young man sat down opposite him rudely, still smiling, "Or uncle, don't you dare?"

The merchant suddenly felt a rush of anger going straight to the top of his head, and said loudly: "Betting, betting! What dare you!" After a pause, he said again, "But if I bet on the saint of Baiyue, you Who else are you betting on? You can't bet on seven Dayu girls at one time, right?" He squinted at the young man, and couldn't hide his mockery.

"My son has never taken advantage of others." The young man smiled and rolled his eyes, and took out a silver note from his arms, "Five hundred taels, this son will escort Miss Fu Liu from the residence of the eldest princess of Yongyang. ." As he spoke, he invited the shopkeeper to give him a testimony.

When the merchant saw the five hundred taels of silver notes, he was a little dumbfounded. He is a small businessman. When he can earn 500 taels a year, it is already a good business. This young man makes 500 taels as soon as he makes a move, which makes him really...

Xingshang swallowed his saliva and retreated again. The boy's originally smiling eyes suddenly became sharp, and he provocatively said, "This uncle, are you afraid? Do you regret it?"

When the young man said this, the eyes of those Taiyu people around him were like arrows stabbing at Xingshang, each with contemptuous hair, as if to say that the barbarians are really barbarians.

Whoosh!

An evil fire suddenly burst into his heart, and he angrily took out five one hundred tael silver bills and said, "Just bet!"

The boy laughed again, and at this moment, a calm male voice urged impatiently outside the door: "Fu Yunhe, what are you doing here! The competition is about to start!"

"Come! Come!" The young man hurried away and gave the shopkeeper a wink, meaning: Witness, everything will be left to you.

The diners in the restaurant couldn't help looking at each other. After a while, the man surnamed Hong said, "That son's name is Fu Yunhe... I remember that the surname of the eldest princess Yongyang is Fu, right?"

"That's right." The thin middle-aged man nodded affirmatively.

The businessman was already sweating profusely, and he thought to himself, "Isn't it?" Did he win the bet? Or lose?

It seems that no matter whether he wins or loses, he has already offended the nobles of Dayu!

On the other side, after Fu Yunhe left the Yunsheng Restaurant, he heard Tian Lianhe complain angrily, "If you're late, I'll blame you! Your sister's competition with my sister, can you serve dim sum!"

Tian Lianhe was talking incessantly on the side, Fu Yunhe was absent-minded, just thinking: what is it good to earn five hundred taels more? The older brother's little gray, the more he likes him, or should he also get an eagle to raise?

Until they came to Guozijian's racecourse, Tian Lianhe finally stopped.

At this moment, the racecourse has been completely renewed, and several huge tents have been temporarily erected on the side for the emperor and other spectators to sit.

When the two heard that the emperor had arrived, they hurried to the big tent in the middle to pay their respects.

The emperor was full of thoughts about the next Yusai, and after ordering him to be seated, he ignored them.

On the other hand, Yun Cheng glared at the two of them solemnly, with a tone that seemed to say, your own sister is competing so late?

The two teenagers could only try to fool around with a smile on their faces. Fortunately, at this time, the movement at the entrance of the racecourse attracted everyone's attention, which also allowed them to escape, and went to take refuge with the elder brother Xiao Yi.

At the entrance of the racecourse, three blue-clothed maids introduced the eight girls who participated in today's race into the racecourse. Each girl was wearing a valiant riding uniform and neat riding boots.

Although the girls are all dressed in similar clothes, the most striking thing is the drapey clothes. Her exotic style, which is different from that of the Dayu women, makes her stand out as if she stands out from the crowd no matter where she stands.

On weekdays, she always wears a white gauze skirt. Today, for the imperial competition, she specially changed to a white riding suit. Her riding suit is slightly different from Taiyu's style, with a knee-length white gauze covering. The clothes are tied around the waist with a silver belt. When walking, the light and fluttering gauze skirt dances in the wind, and the belt flutters wildly, which seems to be a little more feminine.

"See the emperor!"

"See His Majesty Emperor Dayu!"

Seven Dayu girls bowed their knees and bowed to the emperor together with Qiyi.

The emperor waved his hand and signaled them to be excused.

The incense in the cauldron on the side is about to burn out, which means that the competition is about to start. The spectators in the other tents are already eagerly waiting, but they dare not make any noise. Today's competition is really too important. If you accidentally offend Longyan, you will be asking for trouble.

Mrs. Jijiu took a deep breath and began to announce aloud the procedures and rules of today's competition:

Various roadblocks have been set up in today's competition, and the horses participating in the competition must leap over the roadblocks. If they make a detour, they will be considered abstentions. The eight girls participating in the competition will first be divided into two groups for a preliminaries, and then four girls will be selected from the two preliminary contests to compete for the leader of the final.

"Why is it so complicated!" The emperor frowned and said impatiently, "In my opinion, it's a one-time decision."

Listening to the emperor's tone, it seemed that he was just impatiently waiting for the three competitions, but it made the people who heard it agitated and whispered to each other.

There are historical reasons for the complicated design of the Royal Tournament process.

In a Jinxin meeting more than 50 years ago, in the final royal competition, several participating girls formed a party for selfishness, and there was a great conflict in the competition. In the end, four horses collided with each other, and one horse was killed. The barrier railing collapsed, and three girls were injured and one killed, which also led to the Jinxin Club not holding the Royal Tournament in the following years.

Although this matter is not well known to everyone, the Dayu nobles and aristocratic families who are concerned about Jinxin Club naturally know about it, so how could the emperor not know it!

The emperor's intentions are already clear, this test is seven to one, he only needs to sacrifice a few of them to hold the clothes, then no matter who the remaining winners are, Dayu will win.

It's just that this method is blunt, it's really disgraceful...

Spectators reacted differently, but no one questioned the emperor's order, and although Qiyi didn't know the history of Jinxin Club, he understood the disadvantages of the new rules.

She stood there calmly, her blue eyes even bluer than the blue sky above, full of confidence.

Their Baiyue girls grew up on horseback from a young age, and in her eyes, the so-called generals and daughters of Dayu were not worth mentioning at all. Qi Yi believed that in the face of his overwhelming strength, no matter what tricks Dayu wanted to play, it was just a game of clowns.

There was a sneer on the corner of her mouth under the veil, and just as she was about to respond, the corner of her eye caught a red-clothed girl on the left and took a step forward. This step alone attracted countless gazes from all the tents. .

The girl in red was Fu Yunyan, she bowed to the emperor in a heroic manner, and said aloud: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for speaking out, the Royal Race is an obstacle course, which is inherently dangerous. Going up, it is inevitable that some girls have scruples in their hearts, and how can they show their true riding skills!"

Her tone was sonorous and forceful, her words were eloquent, and the little goose egg had an awe-inspiring look on her face.

There was a slight surprise in the clothes, but Fu Yunhe wanted to sigh when he heard it. He shook his head and said in a low voice, "It's really what my stupid sister would say..."

His voice was extremely low, but Nangong Xin, who was beside him, could hear his ears sharply. He looked at Fu Yunhe for a moment, and said seriously, "Little Hezi, Liu Niang is not stupid!"

Fu Yunhe felt a little ashamed by his pure water-like eyes.

At this time, Guan Yubai spoke lightly, and the voice made people say like a spring breeze: "Miss Fu Liu has a pure mind and a righteous spirit. She really has the demeanor of my general's son."

Guan Yubai was once the object that many young children of the capital looked up to. The elders said they were children from other families. When he said this, Fu Yunhe immediately sat upright, as if he was not facing his peers, but an elder or a gentleman. After he sincerely thanked the other party for his false praise, he thought to himself: When Liu Niang knows that the official language has praised her in vain, I am afraid that she will be so happy that she will not be able to sleep all night.

Qi Yi also looked at Guan Yubai, her blue eyes rippling like water.

After the Jin Xin meeting that day, Qi Yi once inquired about this Marquis Anyi, and only then did he learn that he was the official Yubai who had made great achievements in battle and had never failed in the battlefield! Unexpectedly, Guan Yubai, who was rumored to be brave and good at fighting, was actually such a refined person. Emperor Dayu had such a wise general that he did not know how to make good use of it. Instead, he executed his family and let him spend his days idle in the capital.

Li Yi knew in her heart that she came to Dayu to have a relationship, and the purpose of the relationship, she knew very well...Liu Yi couldn't help but think, and the relative doesn't have to be the prince's clan. If Guan Yubai can get them for Baiyue, then their Baiyue will definitely be even more powerful, and it is just around the corner to win Nanjiang.

Qiu Yi bit his lower lip lightly, his heart swaying. She once thought that fish and bear's paw couldn't have both. Since she was mentally prepared to sacrifice for Baiyue, she shouldn't expect anything else... But what if she could really have "both"?

Qi Yi is very confident in her appearance and talent, Guan Yubai is also a man, and she has not married yet, she does not believe that she will not be able to win him.

The emperor didn't speak for a long time, and the people around him gradually became a little nervous with his silence, lest Fu Yunyan's advice would offend Longyan.

The emperor looked at Fu Yunyan for a moment, his deep eyes narrowed slightly. If ordinary people saw the emperor's complexion and eyes, he would be scared to his knees, but Fu Yunyan still looked directly at the emperor without flinching, his eyes were clear. magnanimous.

The emperor suddenly turned his face and said to the lady who was sweating profusely beside him, "Miss Fu Liu has some truth in what she said, so let's follow the original rules."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Mrs. Jijiu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and said to herself: Fortunately, this Jin Xin meeting only occurs once every three years, otherwise she will be short-lived sooner or later.

At this time, the incense on the cauldron on the side had already burned out, and before the competition started, they had a cup of tea late, which always made people feel that the start was not smooth. Make waves again.

The eight girls quickly drew the group for the first preliminaries, and four of them rode their horses to the starting point and lined up.

"Boom!"

When the gong sounded, the four horses galloped out at the same time. The first one was Fu Yunyan in a red riding suit. With the red horse under her crotch, one person and one horse looked like a red lightning, dazzling.

Until this moment, the emperor's eyes were finally stained with a smile. Fortunately, Liu Niang's art master in the little aunt's family was bold and did not disappoint him.

Fu Yunyan rode his horse several dozen feet away, and a railing two or three feet high stopped in front of her.

The obstacle course tests the tacit understanding between the rider and the horse, and she and her red cloud are together every day, and no one can surpass their intimacy and familiarity.

Fu Yunyan smiled confidently, adjusted her posture in line with the horse's movements, and then the red horse jumped up and easily jumped over the obstacle...

As if it was just a snap of the fingers, the first group of the first preliminaries was over, and Fu Yunyan won the first place in this group with an undisputed advantage.

Then the second group came on and, unsurprisingly, Swing won easily.

Looking at her skillful and relaxed equestrianism, the people around them felt more and more that it was not so easy for Dayu to win today's imperial competition.

The competition was carried out in an orderly manner according to the arrangement of Mrs. Jijiu. After half an hour's rest, the official finals were finally about to begin.

The four girls who participated in the final were Fu Yunyan, Qi Yi, Tian girl from Zhenbei General's Mansion and Wei girl from Hussar General's Mansion. The four girls and their horses were soon at the starting point.

The whole place was silent, except for the rustling of the leaves in the summer wind, and the occasional cicadas. All eyes were on the four girls, and the graceful figures on the horses were as tight as a bowstring.

Even the inner servant who was in charge of issuing orders was a little nervous, and only felt that the palm of his hand holding the mallet was sweating.

He cleared his throat, shouted first, then counted down from "three", and when the last "one" fell, he thumped the gong and drum with a "dong".

The four horses rushed out like arrows, and the forceful momentum was completely different from the previous preliminaries.

The warm summer wind blew on the girls' tender cheeks, and while galloping, the usual mild summer wind slashed their skin like a knife, making them feel pain on their faces, and their dresses were blown away by the wind. ring.

After stepping over the two barrier railings in a row, the gap between the girls became apparent. First, Miss Tian was one horse behind, followed by Ms. Wei, who was also half a horse behind. Only Fu Yunyan and Qiyi advanced together.

After half of the run, the distance between the front and rear widened. Obviously, the leader must be choosing between Fu Yunyan and Qiyi.

But the horses of the two are almost parallel, and that slight difference is likely to become difficult to judge the victory or defeat, and maybe this game will become a draw.

In fact, everyone knows that the advantage is still in Dayu. After all, Dayu is now stronger and weaker. Dayu is the master of Baiyue. If the emperor and the people present insisted that it was Fu Yunyan who won with a slight advantage, What can Baiyue do?

This point, how can the clothes not understand!

She knew she had to win by an undisputed advantage.

Her eyes flickered slightly, and she quickly made a decision in her heart. She untied the silver belt around her waist with her left hand and grabbed one end in her hand.

It turned out that the belt was actually a thin silver whip.

She waited silently for the opportunity until the two jumped over the last obstacle at the same time, she used Fu Yunyan's body to cover her movements, and suddenly shot with her left hand.

"Whoosh!"

The silver whip threw a whip at the right front leg of Fu Yunyan's red horse like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter...

She knew that when the horse was in pain, it would raise its two front legs high, and then the speed would naturally slow down, even if it was only for a moment, then she would win!

But he didn't want to, the silver whip that broke out of the air was caught by the backhand without even looking at it.

Li Yi's pupils shrank sharply, she thought that Dayu's women practiced martial arts all with flowery boxing and embroidered legs, and there was such a nimble girl before she arrived!

She immediately noticed that the opponent's right hand was grabbing her silver whip, and the reins fell down...

In the flash of light and flint, Qiu Yi's heart was ruthless, and he pulled back suddenly, trying to pull Fu Yunyan off the horse.

Fu Yunyan leaned back slightly, as if she was about to fall down... Her slight movement immediately attracted the attention of Nangong Xin and Fu Yunhe. They couldn't see the silver whip from their point of view, but they could see Fu Yunyan. All of them took a deep breath, stood up, and exclaimed in unison, "Liu Niang!"

In the next instant, Fu Yunyan had already hooked the stirrup with her feet, and she sat down again after losing her breath.

Fu Yunyan believed that she was not a soft persimmon who repaid her grievances with virtue, and without thinking, she pulled back, intending to retaliate. Li Yi let go of the silver whip at the fastest speed, but he didn't want the opponent's wrist to twist for some reason, then changed from "pull" to "swing", and the silver whip slammed violently on the white horse under Li Yi's crotch. superior.

The white horse raised its head and let out a painful neigh, raised its two front legs, and the horse's hooves flew into the air. Fortunately, the horse's reins were held in one hand and the horse's neck was hugged by the other. At the same time, Fu Yunyan had already Speeding past her like lightning, he was a horse ahead in an instant.

Master tricks, the difference is a thousand miles away.

Victory is decided!

At this time, the spectators in the tents all stood up and gave warm applause for a long time.

Qi Yi quickly stabilized the horse and continued to drive the horse forward, but the speed slowed down, and his heart was turbulent.

She actually lost!

Li Yi gritted his teeth in disbelief, his hands tightly clenched into fists.

For the first time, the beautiful face lost its usual calmness.

She has always been very confident, and she is almost 99% sure that she can win! However, he killed Fu Yunyan, Cheng Yaojin, halfway through...

A look of unwillingness flashed in Li Yi's eyes, but he could only bear it.

After Fu Yunyan rode past the finish line, he did not rush to dismount, but rode his horse to the emperor's tent before jumping off neatly.

Nangong Xin and Fu Yunhe hurriedly surrounded them, but Fu Yunhe said, "Liu Niang, you really scared me to death!"

Fu Yunyan raised her chin and looked at Qiyi proudly, her eyes burning with war as if to say: No matter how much intrigue you play, don't try to succeed in front of me!

Li Yi understood the meaning in her eyes, and the fist hidden in her sleeve couldn't help clenching tightly.

A group of people laughed at Yan Yan, and they all came over to congratulate Fu Yunyan.

The emperor Longyan was overjoyed, and didn't care about the rules and etiquette anymore, he looked at Fu Yunyan with a smile, and said to himself: The blood of their Han family is really extraordinary! The granddaughter taught by Aunt Yongyang is even more outstanding, quite the style of the younger aunt when she was young!

The emperor loved Fu Yunyan, his cousin, on weekdays. Now that she has won glory for Dayu and has a long face for the royal family, she naturally looks more and more kind. The uncle's simply gave her a title as a dowry? The little aunt will be delighted.

After a while, Qi Yi also dismounted and walked to the tent. The veil covered most of her face, but it couldn't hide the frustration in her eyes.

Han Lingfu looked at the clothes with some complexity, and a trace of pity flashed in his heart. A woman like her is already unparalleled in the world. It's just, how can it be easy to win the four champions at the Jinxin Club!

The emperor was in a good mood, and even looking at Qiuyi's eyes became a lot warmer, after clearing his throat, he said loudly: "The saint really opened my eyes, calligraphy, painting, chess, poetry, imperialism, none of them. No, but it has a bit of the demeanor of Mrs. Qing, the fifth leader of the Jinxin Club, who was my Dayu nine years ago."

The emperor deliberately named "Mrs. Qing", just to tell her that Baiyue was not the only one who won several titles in a row at the Jinxin Conference.

Lai Yi secretly hated that she had been taught by a famous teacher from Dayu since she was a child, and of course she had heard of "Mrs. Qing". In front of such a talented woman, she was the one who successively lost to Nangong Yue, Bai Muxiao and Fu Yunyan. , naturally small is nothing. Qi Yi originally thought that he would be able to show his style at the Jinxin meeting, but he didn't expect it to end up like this.

It’s okay to lose yourself, but what should His Highness the First Prince do?

If His Highness the First Prince knew that he had lost, he would definitely not forgive him, and then...

Li Yi couldn't help shivering, fearful, and the delicate face under the veil couldn't help but turn pale.

She has to quickly find a way to make up for it!

After setting up the clothes, he took a step forward as if nothing had happened, and saluted with Dayu's etiquette: "Your Majesty praised it. Today's loss of clothes is convincing! Yangyang Dayu is indeed a talented person. , Miss Bai, and Miss Fu, all made Qi Yi sigh, unable to catch up." At the same time as she spoke, her thoughts moved rapidly, the corners of her lips curved slightly, and she said to the emperor, "However, Qi Yi admires the most. It’s still the lord of the Guanhou who made his way through the endgame that day, and he has been obsessed with chess since he was a child, can you ask His Majesty the Dayu Emperor to allow the lord to give some pointers on how to arrange the clothes?”

The emperor didn't think much about it. Today, Liu Niang's victory made him feel very good. He greeted Guan Yubai and said, "Marquis Anyi, would you like to give some pointers?"

Guan Yubai took a few steps forward, with a habitual smile on his lips, and said, "There is a game of Go in the world, or it is a military game. People who are good at Go are 'art, quality, and reasoning'. But for Wei Chen, it is related to the Art of War. Although the Holy Maiden is good at chess, she is only a woman, and Wei Chen is inconvenient to point out the way of the art of war.”

Li Yi's face froze, she thought Guan Yubai would follow the trend, but she didn't expect...he refused?
