When the prince has the ability to read minds, he switches to the princess

Above the court, the Xixia envoys also brought a dozen warriors, saying that they wanted to find the most skilled people in Daliang to compete with each other in martial arts.

The emperor knows very well that the competition is fake and the test is real, so this game cannot be lost.

This is about bargaining chips.

The emperor summoned Shan Xijia and asked Shan Xijia to explain the situation of the Xixia warriors and select those who could fight.

Shan Xijia tested the people with strong martial arts skills selected by the emperor one by one, and no one was Shan Xijia's opponent. He seemed to be born with greater strength than others, and could throw a strong man far away with a flick of his hand.

That's a woman.

The emperor's face turned dark.

"What are you all for?" The commander of the Royal Forest Army turned out to be incompetent.

His Highness King Chun looked at Shan Xijia. Even though he was a martial artist, he was still frightened when he saw Shan Xijia's fighting methods.

He once thought, if it were him, could he beat her?

Thinking like this, he stepped forward to invite a fight.

However, he had neglected training in the past few years and still lost.

The emperor looked very annoying.

"Your Majesty, I am born with a little stronger strength, but it is not as strong as those who have been trained for real."

"General Shan, you have fought against Xixia warriors. Do you think His Highness King Chun might win if he fights against them?"

Shan Xijia nodded:

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Chun can hold off one person." Shan Yijia looked at the people who were recommended in the crowd and nodded at the two of them, "Join the candidates."

Shan Yijia seemed to suddenly remember and asked, "Your Majesty, can I recommend someone?"

"Who?"

"Prince Shen, Zhu Gaoyong."

Shan Xijia met an intruder at her house last night and fought him. He fought with her and was not inferior to her at all.

His Royal Highness King Chun heard that she mentioned Zhu Gaoyong and mocked: "General Shan, you must have admitted your mistake. Lao Jiu's embroidered pillow fell down before he even came on stage."

The third prince, King Yu, also laughed.

"Brother, don't talk about it. If Lao Jiu looks like that on stage, he might be able to arouse his affection."

Hahahaha

Emperor Ruizhong's eyes turned slightly, and he said in his heart: You can do it, come on.

But despite the presence of outsiders, Emperor Ruizong finally cast his gaze on Shan Yijia's face. She stood upright and seemed not to take the two princes' jokes seriously.

There is a kind of thing that you say is yours, but I insist on my own.

Emperor Ruizhong asked Li Quanxi, the eunuch next to him:

"Where is Lao Jiu? I will summon Lao Jiu to me."

Zhu Gaoyong came over, but the emperor did not explain his purpose, but asked Zhu Gaoyong to fight with others.

Zhu Gaoyong refused:

"I only have this face now. If it is damaged, how can I get a wife?"

Emperor Ruizong didn't like his casual attitude.

He frowned and asked:

"Why didn't I know that you were so good at Kung Fu? The master who taught you Kung Fu said that you skipped class all day long and were unwilling to learn?"

Zhu Gaoyong said: "What's playing hooky? It's obvious that he can't beat me, so he just slandered me because of his face. And my son's kung fu isn't that good either?"

The emperor glanced at Shan Xijia, who directly replied: "Prince Shen, you don't have to be too modest. I fought with you last night when I climbed over the wall to meet the beauty. Your skills were superb. The envoy from Xixia came to Daliang and proposed Friendly communication, Prince Shen’s ability can give them a warning,”

Zhu Gaoyong's beautiful eyes were bright and shining with a different kind of shrewdness, as if he was thinking about something.

"Climbing the wall? There is no way to climb the wall. This prince has never done this. General Shan, please don't slander my innocence."

Shan Xijia would not admit his mistake, and the man did not disguise himself when he came in. He just stood in the yard and looked at Fang Xirou without disturbing him.

In the dead of night, he tried to enter the house, but was intercepted by himself.

Emperor Ruizhong was impatient and asked, "Just say what you want?"

"I don't want anything. I just feel that as a delicate and frail person, I can't handle it easily if I mess up."

"..."

Emperor Ruizhong is the emperor after all, how can he not know his thoughts?

"I don't want to ask you the first time, and I won't give you a second chance."

Zhu Gaoyong felt that this person was not ignorant of current affairs, especially when the person opposite him was the emperor.

"Last time, I said that I wanted to marry Fang Xirou as a royal concubine. Father, the imperial edict was written incorrectly. Do you want to give me another imperial edict?"

When Emperor Ruizong heard what he said, he thought it was funny.

"Where's the imperial edict I gave you before? Bring it over and I'll change it for you."

Zhu Gaoyong felt very happy when he heard this.

"Thank you, Father."

But when Zhu Gaoyong took the imperial edict back and handed it to the emperor, the emperor took it back and gave it to Li Quanxi.

"Old Jiu, if you handle this matter beautifully, I will satisfy you. Otherwise, a little seventh-grade magistrate's daughter is really not worthy of being your concubine."

"..."

Zhu Gaoyong wanted to lie down on the ground and roll on the sandy slope, but he still had some dignity.

He said leisurely: "Father, if you want to take it back, take it back. Anyway, he doesn't care about me being a concubine. I will be a bachelor in this life..."

Emperor Ruizhong hummed, his shrewd eyes flashing with the desire to fight with me.

"Li Quanxi, please make a decree for me to betroth that girl from the Fang family to..."

When Zhu Gaoyong heard these words, he quickly intercepted and said, "Father, what did you ask your son to do just now? Murder or set fire. My son will help you complete it even if he goes up mountains of swords and seas of fire."

Emperor Ruizhong said: "Son, you are a little too young to fight with me."

Shan Xijia watched the imperial edict being taken away, a hint of shrewdness flashing on her heroic face.

That day in the ring

Everyone in the Hou Mansion entered the palace, but Xirou was still in the West Mansion.

Zhu Gaoyong has also been very depressed recently. He received no response from Fang Xirou and was restrained by the emperor. He couldn't vent his depression.

Now someone is hitting the muzzle of the gun.

Zhu Gaoyong looked at the dozen or so people across from him, all of them strong and muscular, and it seemed difficult to deal with them. And he couldn't fight them one by one. He had to make them feel awe and fear him first.

When Tuoba Yuanji saw that the first one to take the stage was Prince Shen, it wasn't that Tuoba Yuanji didn't like him, but just like what King Yu said, he went there and felt like an embroidered pillow.

There must be no one in Daliang except Shan Yijia.

"Your Majesty, isn't it good for Prince Shen to take the stage? It would be a pity if he gets injured."

Tuoba Nuying also smiled and said: "Please beg me, Prince Shen, please don't hurt my future husband."

"Yes, Your Highness Princess." After saying that, the man laughed a few times.

Emperor Ruizong had trained his son in the past few days, and his martial arts skills were pretty good.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he can equal one to ten.

However, Emperor Ruizong did not show any pride, but said politely:

"It's just a competition of martial arts."

"Although it's a sparring match, it's still a real sword fight, and injuries are inevitable. But I will teach them to be gentle."

"Then I'll bother Prince Tuoba."

Lighter? I think you are eager to beat my son seriously.
