Chapter 157

Finally, on the day when the four kingdoms officially began, there were many vendors in the streets of the city, which seemed deserted. However, the ritual square in the east of the city was bustling, crowded with spectators.

White marble platforms have long been built around the square for courtiers and envoys from all over the world to watch. Tea and cakes have long been placed on the table in front of the brocade stool, and countless palace maids in colorful clothes serve nearby. The North dragon chair is even more magnificent, covered by a circle of translucent curtains, which can not only see the game in the square, but also block the sun.

"Nalan night, you don't seem to be very interested in today's game?" Luo qingluan looked back from time to time as she walked, urging Nalan night who fell behind. It was clear that the street was very empty, but Nalan night was not anxious and walked very slowly.

For Luo qingluan's inquiry, Nalan smiled and remained unmoved. Anyway, it's still early for the test at this time. Instead of being hypocritical and polite with so many people, it's better to accompany Luo qingluan wandering in the street.

Luo qingluan is looking forward to this grand event, because it is the first time she has met such a big event. Usually, she can only go shopping when she is bored. Even if she can see the blowing, playing and singing of Mengxian building, she will kill the time. Today, there is finally the Congress of the four countries, and her mind has long flown to the venue.

Seeing that the distance between Nalan night and herself was slowly widening, Luo qingluan finally couldn't help but turn around and run back, pulling Nalan night's arm forward.

Luo qingluan murmured, "if you go on like this, the cauliflower will be cold when you get to the venue."

"It's still early. Why are you in such a hurry?" Looking at the little hands as tender as spring onions and holding their arms, Nalan night smiled. He had to speed up his steps, but he was still not much faster than just now.

Just after the morning, the ritual square was crowded, most of the courtiers had arrived, and many people in the Western Chu also came to watch the game. One after another, there were voices of Hawking and conversation.

The closer she was to the venue, the more excited Luo qingluan was. Looking around, she was as happy as a child. It was only at this meeting that her innocence was revealed and usually hidden.

Finally, at the entrance of the square, Luo qingluan found that he ran too fast. He didn't know when Nalan night disappeared behind him. He had to stand at the entrance and wait for him.

A moment later, Nalan night walked slowly from the crowd towards the entrance with his back to his hand.

"Why are you like this? You suddenly disappeared when you walked. You should say hello." Luo qingluan ran to Nalan night and scolded him.

Nalan night was not annoyed at all. He took out two strings of candied haws from behind. "I just saw someone selling candied haws, so I went to buy you two strings." Then he stuffed the sugar gourd into Luo qingluan's hand and strode to the venue.

"Incredibly..." unexpectedly, he bought snacks for himself. Luo qingluan was warm with sugar gourd.

It seems that he usually pays close attention to her. He knows that she and Daiyue always like to eat sugar gourd on the street. He will simply buy some for her. Just thinking, in the twinkling of an eye, Nalan night has entered the venue. He couldn't help pretending to be angry: "Nalan night, I'll die later."

After that, she quickly chased up.

In the square, the Royal relatives and many courtiers have sat down. Although they look around, they are obviously much quieter than the surrounding people.

As the host, the emperor of Western Chu came a moment later and sat on the Dragon chair with the help of imperial concubine song. Duke Li stood aside and waited carefully. Originally, the queen should have come, but because she was pregnant, the emperor of Western Chu brought the most beloved imperial concubine song to watch the war. At this time, the imperial concubine song was even more complacent.

All the officials knew that Nalan night would also play this year, and they were looking forward to it. You should know that the parliaments of these four countries are actually a battlefield without gunpowder smoke between countries. They can not only be the style of the nominally strong, but also bring a lot of benefits and convenience to their own countries.

As soon as Nalan night entered the square, Xiao Ningyu, who had been waiting for him for a long time, saw it immediately, hurried to meet him, and waited until Nalan night passed by and gave him a bow.

"Ning Yu has seen the king of Chu."

That pair of eyes seemed to be looking through autumn water, flashing the tenderness and admiration of a girl. Xiao Ningyu thought that with her own beauty, she would not let Nalan night be fascinated, but at least she would surprise him.

But I didn't think Nalan night just nodded with her, didn't say a word, as if he didn't know her, so he crossed her and walked towards the emperor of Western Chu. Xiao Ningyu was embarrassed, but she didn't want to miss this great opportunity and follow her all the way.

Luo qingluan, who was walking behind, saw it all and was very satisfied with Nalan night's practice. When passing by Xiao Ningyu, she didn't forget to raise the ice sugar gourd in her hand and smiled at Xiao Ningyu: "the skirt Princess duanrou is wearing today is very beautiful. Where did you buy it?"

"What do you care?" Xiao Ningyu grabbed the handkerchief and clenched her teeth.

Where didn't she know Luo qingluan was satirizing her? Recalling what Bai Yixuan said to her last night, she naturally won't give Luo qingluan a good face.

"Oh, yes, no matter what the princess wears, naturally it doesn't care about me. However, whether my husband is good or not, I don't bother to greet Princess duanrou. Save your strength." With that, Luo qingluan took another bite of sugar gourd and left.

Xiao Ningyu looked at Luo qingluan's back with gloomy eyes. In short, only the voice he heard said ruthlessly, "Luo qingluan, wait for me."

As if she heard something, Luo qingluan seemed to pause. When she looked back, Xiao Ning Yu's eyes shrank and turned quickly, afraid to let her see. With a faint smile, Luo qingluan ignored her and continued to speed up his pace to catch up with Nalan night.

"Look at you running. Don't sweat." Nalan night saw Luo qingluan catch up, stretched out his hand and naturally straightened her disordered hair and touched her forehead.

"Who made you run so fast." Luo qingluan gave a sweet gourd, and Nalan night took it for her. The sweet action of the two made Xiao Ningyu angry. However, it was inconvenient to attack at this time. Leng was raw and suffocated, making her heart ache.

"Princess, are you okay?" When the next maid saw that she looked bad, she wanted to help her. Unexpectedly, she became Xiao Ningyu's vent. She pushed her hard and nearly fell down.

"Useless dog slave." Xiao Ningyu brushed her sleeve away, and the maid followed up in panic.

As time passed, at the auspicious hour, Duke Li finally read out the competition rules and rewards. The parliaments of the four countries are officially kicked off, and the warriors of all countries are eager to get up.

Luo qingluan sat in his seat and listened while drinking tea.

"In the first round, the men's literary test - archery! In the first round, Zhao Si, the son of the seven kings of the state of Dongwan, was paired with Lin extraordinary, the son of marquis mo of the state of Southern Wei." Li Gonggong's voice was very sharp. Luo qingluan was not used to it. He couldn't help taking out his ears with his fingers.

In Xiao Ningyu's eyes, she felt that she was extremely vulgar. Compared with herself, that was the difference between heaven and earth. Xiao Ningyu wondered what Nalan night liked about her.

Zhao Sicheng was the first to jump onto the stage, and Lin Feifan also followed suit and jumped into the challenge arena. Because he knew that he would compete today, several people who signed up for the competition wore strong clothes that were convenient for display.

As soon as they came up, there was a startling cry of ups and downs under the stage. Luo qingluan looked at the two on the stage.

In terms of appearance, Zhao Sicheng looks more burly. His bronze skin and bright eyes are full of explosive power. And Lin Feifan is more handsome. He wears white strong clothes, wears a jade crown and looks gentle and elegant. It's not like coming to the competition, but it's like a relaxing trip, but it shows strong self-confidence.

They look obviously different temperament, but because of their good appearance, they also confuse countless women.

"Ah - Zhao Shizi will win! Come on!" Some boudoir daughters who loved Zhao Sicheng couldn't help shouting.

"Childe Lin is more powerful. It must be childe Lin who won!" Similarly, there are many women who are optimistic about Lin extraordinary in the southern Wei Dynasty.

Since there were no Xichu players in the first game, it doesn't matter which side they cheer for. Not only the excitement of these precious women, but also the courtiers nodded, as if they were comparing the two people on the stage with the next Xichu players.

Luo qingluan looked at the two people in the stands, and then looked at Nalan night. He pulled the sleeves of Nalan night and asked anxiously, "Nalan night, look at others. They are all prepared. Even archery is so simple. You are looking at you. You are a swordsman. This dress is good-looking, but aren't you afraid of tripping over your robe as soon as you go on stage?"

Nalan night suddenly felt a black line, and asked Luo qingluan with deep meaning: "is the lady doubting her ability to be a husband?"

Luo qingluan knew that he didn't recover, so he just wanted him to be careful, but he said with a glance: "I'm not worried. Others don't know your skills. Don't I know? I'm worried about your opponent. If you wear this, he can't beat you. Isn't it shameless? But with your Kung Fu, they can't beat you even if they're naked, right, ha ha..."

"Qingluan, I thought you would worry about me. As a result..." Nalan night was wronged and lowered his voice: "can't you care about me?"

I knew that the man was playing coquettish again. In recent days, she had been doing this several times on the pretext of poisoning and weakness, which made her flustered and heartbeat. She was not used to it. Now in broad daylight, not more than at home, Luo qingluan didn't dare to let him go too far. He could only say, "OK, OK, I care about you. Why don't I care about you? When it's your turn, remember not to be careless. No matter how powerful it is, you should guard against your opponent, okay?"

"Qingluan, do you think I will win?"

"Yes, you are the king of Chu. The whole West Chu is looking forward to you winning!"

Originally thought Nalan night would modestly refute himself, but unexpectedly, Nalan night's face changed and naturally nodded: "well, it's that seeing you worship your husband so much, you must win the first to show you."

Choking, Luo qingluan almost stopped breathing. Luo qingluan thought, "I've never seen such a shameless person. When he said he was fat, he gasped immediately."

At this time, Duke Li's voice once again drew Luo qingluan's attention: "attention, the topic of the competition between the two is archery. There are ten arrows in total. The one who hits more hearts will win. Now, the competition begins!"
