Although it is well known that the venue of the competition is set at the Royal martial arts arena, and ordinary people cannot enter to watch, the streets of the capital are still crowded and lively.

The business of each firecracker shop was more than 30% better than usual. Many people bought firecrackers in advance, waiting to celebrate the upcoming victory. Some businessmen sat around the teahouse and Tavern chatting, excitedly discussing winning or losing and the two cities in the bag.

"This time, the king of Chu will definitely win. We are sure to win in Western Chu."

"Isn't it? The king of Chu is the God of war of Western Chu. It's nothing to have the king of Chu and the prince of Dongwan."

"When we win this competition, we will be the best in the world! Ha ha..."

Countless people should join us and raise their glasses to celebrate. Their faces are filled with excitement and noise.

Who knows, just as everyone wished victory, a voice suddenly sounded: "I heard that the king of Chu had been secretly plotted, had no internal power and lost his martial arts. Have you heard? But I don't know whether it is true or false?"

As soon as these words came out, the lobby was silent, and everyone looked at them at the same time, trying to know who said them.

I saw a man with ordinary appearance and plain clothes sitting there, with a few small dishes, a pile of salted peanuts and a pot of wine in front of him. Even if everyone looked at him, he was not abnormal at all. It seemed that he just said a word casually. He didn't feel that he had caused an uproar.

Someone stared at him for a while and didn't believe: "nonsense, what is it? It's ridiculous!"

The crowd reacted and booed one by one, waving and ignoring it. Some people were dissatisfied with his random rumor and shook their fists at him impolitely: "don't spread rumors, you boy. How can the king of Chu be secretly plotted and lose his martial arts? You shouldn't be Dongwan's spy. You're here to make trouble!"

Immediately someone started to make trouble and got up to teach the man a lesson, but before he could do it, the man glanced at everyone as if laughing at their ignorance and said, "believe it or not, you'll know right away. When Wubi starts, the king of Chu is defeated and Prince Xiao is victorious. What do you know?"

"Try another fucking word?" Someone looked fierce and shouted, "believe it or not, I beat you?"

"Why? I just told the truth because everyone didn't know. You're going to beat me?"

The man raised his eyebrows, and suddenly a chill came out all over his body. Everyone was shocked. They all retreated together. Then they heard him sneer and say, "believe it or not, Nalan night, king of Chu, has been secretly plotted. At present, he has no skills. The king of Chu's house is hiding it. I'm afraid even his majesty doesn't know. Ha ha... There will be a good play later."

With that, he picked up a peanut, poured another glass of wine and drank it slowly.

Now, everyone was shocked. Looking at the man's appearance and momentum, I'm afraid it wasn't made out of nothing.

But if it's true, then

The people stared at each other and couldn't believe it.

"You, how do you know?" Stunned for a moment, someone asked.

"Yes, how do you know? Are you from King Chu's residence? No..." someone immediately denied it as soon as he asked, "it's impossible. If you're from King Chu's residence, how can you say this everywhere? I'm afraid you did it? Did you secretly harm the king of Chu?"

The crowd surged up and gathered around one by one to ask clearly: "tell me, who are you? Why do you know this secret?" "He also said that the king of Chu was intrigued. Did you do it?"

"Are you Dongwan's spy or Nanwei's spy? You don't want to leave until you make it clear today!"

The whole lobby is like boiling water, and the man's table is crowded. Seeing a group of excited people about to start, when they grabbed his skirt, they only heard the wind and a figure rose from the ground.

"Wow -"

Countless bricks and tiles fell down, and a big hole was broken in the lobby of the restaurant. The person who originally sat in his position disappeared.

The crowd grabbed the air and immediately fell down together. They looked at each other, struggling and shouting for help. They were in a mess

But for a moment, it flew all over the capital like a winged bird.

Some doubt, some surprise, some ignore

At this time, in the Royal martial arts arena, all facilities have been properly arranged in advance, forming a square, a total of three rows, and each row is filled with princes and nobles who came to watch the competition. Right in the middle of the north of the martial arts arena, a three foot high platform was paved with a red carpet, on which were two throne carved with dragons and phoenixes. Nangong Qing and Su Yi sat left and right, with a light and reserved smile on their faces.

In order to watch Nalan night's Wu Bi with Xiao Yuqi, all officials above the third grade came, none of them was absent, and they were even more active than in the early days. This is the duel between Dongwan and Western Chu, which determines the future and destiny of a country. Who doesn't want to see it with his own eyes?

In particular, some women's families and daughters, as well as the concubines who sat behind and were covered by curtains, were looking forward to it one by one. They wanted to have a good look at the style and courage of Nalan night.

Although Nalan night has married Luo qingluan and has an extravagant appearance of spoiling his wife, it does not make the thousands who love him and expect him forget, but become more and more eager. Even if you can't be a positive concubine, it's better to be a side concubine. Otherwise, you can serve a concubine, as long as it's him!

Even if there is no hope, at least it's good to see Nalan night with your own eyes.

Everyone looked forward to Nalan night as soon as possible.

"Your Majesty, look at this Wubi, the king of Chu should have no problem?" On the throne, Su Yi wore a phoenix crown and was dressed in a dignified and luxurious manner. She still held the one-and-a-half-year-old prince in her arms and whispered to Nangong Qing, with a touch of worry on her face.

It's not that she doesn't believe Nalan night's ability, but that the matter is so important that she can't help worrying about her quiet character.

Nangong Qing was not worried at all. He didn't even care about the envoy of Dongwan beside him. He said directly: "don't worry, I absolutely believe Ziqing's ability. Otherwise, I won't agree to the competition. Dongwan must change color and hand over two cities. Otherwise..."

The corner of his lips was hooked with a touch of pride, but a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes and said, "don't blame me for being merciless and letting them lose their only crown prince!"

"Your Majesty is too confident. Even if the king of Chu is brave, our crown prince is not ordinary. It's uncertain whether we can win or lose in the competition." Hearing this, the envoy of Dongwan changed his face and moved his lips. Finally, he tried his best to control and didn't say anything ugly.

"Ha ha... What envoy Dongwan said is, but I absolutely believe in the king of Chu!"

Nangong Qing raised her eyebrows and said, "queen, do you think so?"

Thinking of what Xiao Yuqi had done, Su Yi could not bear it, but she didn't say much. She just nodded, smiled and said, "my concubine naturally believes in your majesty and the king of Chu."

If Xiao Yuqi hadn't done those things, she wouldn't have almost separated from her majesty and almost lost the emperor. Including Luo qingluan's disappearance, later amnesia, involving countless people and losing countless lives... These were all made by Xiao Yuqi, crown prince of Dongwan.

Suyi hated him very much. If not, she wouldn't even stop pleading.

Nangong Qing turned to look at the envoys of the southern Wei Dynasty and said confidently, "envoys of the southern Wei Dynasty, what do you say? Is it my Western Chu win or Dongwan win this time?"

How to answer this question?

The envoys of the southern Wei Dynasty were not fools. How could they open their mouth at will to offend the other party before there was no result? The envoy of the southern Wei Dynasty smiled: "whether it is the king of Chu or prince Xiao, they are all dragons and phoenixes among people. The martial arts competition will be wonderful and eye opening for us. Whether we win or lose, we will not lose our life. I will witness it well and report it to my lord when I go back."

"Hehe, what the envoys of the southern Wei Dynasty said is very true." Nangong Qing said faintly and didn't care.

The other side made it clear that they would not offend each other. As expected, it was the old fox who said nothing.

Anyway, Nangong Qing doesn't care. His focus is on the victory of Wubi and the next medical gambling. As long as Nalan night and Luo qingluan succeed, it is great benefit to him!

Just then, the Minister of household on one side looked at the sky and came up to respectfully say, "Your Majesty, it's almost time."

The time of the official martial arts competition is Si Shi Zheng. Now it is faster than Chen Shi, but we haven't seen the two sides of the competition yet. Nangong Qing also knew that Nalan night's character was always unrestrained and would not follow the rules. When he heard the speech, he sent someone to invite him and said to the envoy of Dongwan not far away: "almost, you prince Xiao should come soon."

I heard a panic exclamation: "your majesty! Your majesty is not well..."

Nangong Qing and Su Yi turned their heads at the same time. Sun Dafu was shocked and ran over in a panic.

With a frown, Nangong Qing's face sank and stared at Sun Dafu. If it hadn't been for the wrong occasion, he would have let someone drag sun Dafu down. In front of the envoys of Dongwan and the southern Wei Dynasty, what a formality!

"Have something to say. What are you doing in a hurry?" He murmured.

"Your Majesty..."

Sun Dafu could not control his inner panic and shock, but still trembled: "the big event is bad. I don't know why outside. Suddenly... There was a rumor that the king of Chu, the king of Chu... He..."

As soon as he heard that the matter was related to Nalan night, Nangong Qing couldn't help sinking his heart at this critical time: "what's the matter with the king of Chu? Speak quickly!"

Sun Dafu almost knelt on the ground, and his anxious sweat was about to come out: "Your Majesty, it is rumored that... It is said that the king of Chu has lost his martial arts because he has been secretly plotted!"

"What!" Nangong Qing's pupils contracted violently and jumped up on the spot.
