Chapter 426 Competition
After waiting for a long time, the Queen finally arrived. When she looked at Ji Caifu, she really felt like a parent looking at each other. She greeted him, chatted for a few words, and then started to have people play music and dance.
I originally thought that there would be no one to cause trouble, but I didn't expect that the daughter of an official from the Queen's faction would challenge Ji Xingle.
"I heard that Lord Ji always won first place in the scientific examinations of Phoenix Country. It can be seen that Lord Ji has real talent and knowledge. So, how about we use the mood of winter to write a poem like a painting?"
Hearing this, Ji Xingle raised his eyebrows. With winter's ancient poems, she has a lot in her mind! The three hundred ancient poems were not memorized in vain.
"Okay, you come first."
The official's daughter bowed to Ji Xingle and coughed twice to open her throat;
"One step shallow, two steps deep, three steps and the young man is already gray-haired.
One person walks, two lines of prints are left, three steps back and no traces are left. "
"Good~"
Everyone present applauded and praised.
Ji Xingle also gave her a thumbs up. The official's daughter was so embarrassed by Ji Xingle's move that she coughed to ease the embarrassment and smiled as she extended her hand to Ji Xingle.
"Master Ji, it's your turn."
Ji Xingle nodded, thinking of Zhongnan Mountain with snow on it;
"The beautiful mountains of Zhongnan are covered with snow and clouds.
The forest is bright with clear skies, while the city is getting colder at dusk."
"Good~"
There was continuous applause from the people present.
The official's daughter thought for a moment before speaking again;
"First the snowflakes drifted across the sky, then the fluttering feathers covered the ground.
In the pavilion, admire the orchids and peach trees, but don’t share their beauty with the snowflakes. "
Ji Xingle has another song about plum blossoms;
"There are several plum blossoms in the corner, and Ling Han blooms alone.
I know it's not snow from a distance, because there is a faint fragrance coming. "
After competing in more than ten poems in a row, the people present clapped their hands until they were sore. In the end, the official's daughter admitted defeat.
Then there was someone who claimed to be a military general’s daughter and expressed her desire to compete with Ji Xingle in martial arts.
Ji Xingle accepted all their challenges. Seeing that the other party was holding a spear, Ji Xingle also chose a spear.
"Master Ji, I'm sorry..."
Ji Xingle nodded and said with a smile, "I'm sorry."
The other party stabbed at Ji Xingle, but Ji Xingle spun back and hit the woman's leg with his spear.
The woman knelt forward, her face pale, and quickly adjusted her state. She stood up and attacked Ji Xingle from top to bottom, front to back, left to right.
Ji Xingle dodged by jumping and jumping, and counterattacked. The woman's buttocks, shoulders, and calves were all attacked.
A game was over in just a few minutes.
Ji Caifu and the others were watching with fear in their hearts, but when Ji Xingle won, they breathed a sigh of relief. If it wasn't the wrong occasion, they would have wanted to jump up and cheer.
The queen had a smile on her face, but it didn't quite reach her eyes. She clenched her hands tightly, her heart was beating unusually fast, and she was a little panicked...
The other generals didn't know how to read the Queen's expression, and noticed that the Queen was in a bad mood. They thought that the Queen was angry that they had lost two games in a row and couldn't hold back their pride.
She immediately volunteered to compete with Ji Xingle. She was full of confidence and didn't believe that she would lose to Ji Xingle.
So he was a bit arrogant when he spoke to Ji Xingle;
"Master Ji, right? It's nothing to win against her, after all, she has never been on the battlefield. This general is different. I have killed at least 8,000 people, if not 10,000. You better be careful..."
Hearing this, Ji Xingle said calmly;
"Oh!"
Seeing Ji Xingle's appearance, the general thought that Ji Xingle did not respect her, and was a little angry, so she snorted coldly;
"bring it on!"
Ji Xingle still said calmly;
"please."
Seeing the general's confidence, the other officials felt that victory was within reach and watched the game intently, wanting to be the first to know the result.
As a result, Ji Xingle was not as they expected. This match ended faster than the previous one. In the previous match, Ji Xingle had been teasing people for 5 minutes before it ended.
In less than a minute, Ji Xingle defeated this rampant general so badly that he began to doubt his life.
The scene was silent. When Ji Caifu saw that Ji Xingle had won again, he was about to applaud and cheer, but suddenly he realized something was wrong and looked around. He saw them standing still.
Seeing this, Ji Caifu was confused and shocked. In order not to cause trouble for Ji Xingle, he could only follow the local customs and keep silent.
No one noticed the strange behavior of the Queen above. The Queen just looked at Ji Xingle with only fear in her eyes.
Ji Xingle noticed something, looked up at the Queen with a big smile on his face, but didn't say anything yet!
The Queen was so frightened that she accidentally disrupted the food in front of her. The sound of the clinking of bowls and chopsticks brought everyone back to their senses, but no one applauded. The Grand Tutor and the others did not dare to applaud either.
After losing one after another, if they dared to cheer again, they were afraid that the Queen would punish them.
He hurriedly cared for the Queen;
"Your Majesty, what happened?"
Upon hearing this, the officials looked towards the Queen to express their concern.
The Queen pretended to be calm and waved her hands;
"fine."
But anyone with a discerning eye could see that the Queen was not in a good condition.
So they asked again;
"How about asking the imperial physician to take a look?"
The queen discovered something horrible. She was afraid that if she left suddenly, Ji Xingle would be unhappy, so she opened her mouth to refuse.
Ji Xingle's voice sounded at this time;
"If you feel uncomfortable, go back and rest! Don't make everyone worry."
Hearing this, the Queen immediately spat out the water she had just drunk to ease her emotions, and looked at Ji Xingle in disbelief.
Did she hear it right? This devil asked her to rest? Was she so kind? Thinking of the pain all over her body, she regretted it! If she had known, she would not have provoked her.
I thought she would be alright if she listened to her and turned over a new leaf, but I didn't expect that the devil would come back in this way.
What on earth was she trying to do? Was she here to supervise her? Or did she want to beat her up again?
When Ji Xingle saw that the empress did not respond after she finished speaking, but looked terrified, he raised his eyebrows and curled up the corners of his mouth. Was she discovered?
The other officials saw that Ji Xingle's words were ineffective and were about to laugh at her for overestimating her own abilities, but unexpectedly Ji Xingle spoke again;
"Hmm? What are you thinking about? Did you discover something?"
Hearing this, the Queen's remaining sanity made her rub her arms gently and explain with a wry smile;
"No, no, I feel a little uncomfortable now. I'm going to rest first. You guys eat, drink and have fun..."
After saying this, he left in a hurry without waiting for everyone's reaction.
The prime minister and others looked at the queen's back, squinting their eyes, not knowing what they were thinking.
The Taifu and his companions invited Ji Caifu to chat and eat. Ji Xingle said hello to them and left.
The men's banquet was even more interesting. There was a lot of sarcasm. They compared jewelry, clothes, and appearances. Daddy Zhao and Qian Shuran crushed everyone present.
When they had nothing decent to show off, Qian Shuran and the others snorted coldly and showed off Ji Xingle's great achievements to them.
Hearing this, they felt envious and jealous, and never dared to show off in front of Qian Shuran and others again.
The husbands and sons-in-law of the Taifu were full of envy, muttering that they wanted to have the same nail styles that Qian Shu dyed on their hands.
Qian Shuran smiled and joked, saying that after Huangfu Xinyue married Ji Xingle, they would open a nail salon here, and they must go to support them then.
The Queen had been upset before, but no matter what she said, Huangfu Xinyue and his son could make her speechless, and others could not hear any problem.
Seeing this, the queen passed the problem to the officials' families. Her beloved Princess Jiaoyang had long been made autistic by Qian Shuran and the others, so she was unusually silent at this moment.
