"How is this possible? His Royal Highness Prince Chen's arm was removed?"

"Your Highness Prince Su is so fast, did you see it clearly just now?"

"Oh my god, His Royal Highness Prince Su didn't move a single step from beginning to end, and he defeated Prince Chen with just one move?"

"Did we bet on the wrong thing..."

Seeing this, the queen's gloomy face finally changed a little. She looked at Gu Beihuai with satisfaction and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Ruxiao even clapped his hands in applause.

Shen Qingyan also breathed a sigh of relief, but her eyes were still closely following Gu Beihuai, afraid of missing any move.

After Gu Chenan's arm was removed, the soft sword fell to the ground with a clang. He felt so much pain that cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but he still gritted his teeth and persisted.

Wouldn't it be too embarrassing to admit defeat at this time?

The emperor frowned, obviously dissatisfied.

"Chen An, what's going on?"

Gu Chen'an coughed dryly and said in a hoarse voice: "Your Majesty, I was not feeling well and lost my temper for a moment."

The implication is that if he hadn't been feeling unwell, Gu Beihuai would not have been able to succeed.

So he picked up the sword with his other hand and attacked Gu Beihuai again.

This time he attacked Gu Beihuai's lower body, forcing him to move.

Gu Beihuai had a stern expression on his face, and he remained calm about it, which made Gu Chenan even angrier.

I must have underestimated my enemy just now, so Gu Beihuai took advantage of me. This sword will definitely work!

Everyone stared at Gu Chenan's second sword, holding their breath and looking nervous.

However, just like the previous move, Gu Beihuai did not take action until the sword was about to pierce his left leg.

He just raised his leg, and his knee moved his calf to flip from the inside to the outside, and he actually wrapped around Gu Chenan's sword, and then retreated!

Gu Chenan's sword fell out of his hand.

He immediately leaned forward to grab it, but Gu Beihuai had already taken a step ahead of him and held the sword firmly in his hand, pointing it at his throat.

This series of actions was so intense that not only everyone else but even Gu Chenan who was in the middle of it was unable to react.

Because Gu Beihuai's movements were too fast.

Just when everyone was still in shock, a beautiful female voice sounded.

"Well done, my Lord!"

Shen Qingyan looked excited and full of joy, her eyes following Gu Beihuai.

She admitted that she did it on purpose, deliberately letting everyone know that the person in her eyes and heart was Gu Beihuai, not Gu Chenan.

Gu Beihuai heard it, and this time he restrained himself and did not look back.

Even though Gu Chenan was panting, he couldn't help but look at Shen Qingyan.

The girl's bright smile deeply hurt his eyes and heart. He cursed her inwardly, "Bitch!" and instantly became aroused by his desire to win. He attacked Gu Beihuai with his bare hands.

This time Gu Beihuai was different. He threw the two swords casually, and they pierced straight into the boat, making a buzzing sound.

Then he raised his fist to meet Gu Chenan's.

"boom!"

The power of this punch was extraordinary, and those who were close to it could even feel their hearts beating violently.

The little prince in the emperor's arms was so frightened that he burst into tears.

Gu Chenan even spat out a mouthful of blood, retreated repeatedly, and forced himself to avoid falling down.

Everyone was shocked. Is Prince Su’s punch so powerful?

Shen Qingyan felt so happy that she started clapping.

"My Lord, you fought well!"

Everyone looked at her as if they had seen a ghost.

Saying that Prince Su beat Prince Chen well? How dare you?

No, only she dared to do that. After all, her brain wasn’t working very well before.

The emperor handed the little prince to the maid beside him and asked in a deep voice, "What happened?"

Before Gu Chen'an could say anything, Gu Beihuai said with a guilty look on his face: "Father, I didn't use any internal force in this punch. It seems that my brother is really sick. It's my fault. Please forgive me, father."

There was no internal force fluctuation just now, so Gu Beihuai was indeed not lying.

The emperor looked at Gu Chen'an with some disappointment. Has his most promising son regressed to this point?

A small cold led to such a miserable defeat?

After all, he saw it clearly just now. Gu Beihuai easily defeated Gu Chenan by taking the initiative in the first two moves, and he only threw a punch in the third move.

Seeing the emperor's brows furrowed into the shape of a "川" character, Gu Chen'an hurriedly said, "Father, it is my son who is useless..."

The emperor interrupted him with a wave of his hand, his tone already somewhat impatient, "Chen'an, in my opinion, you have been very lazy in swordsmanship recently. When you are well again, go to the military camp and practice hard for a month."

Gu Chenan opened his mouth and swallowed back all the words he wanted to explain.

He just said that he caught a cold. If he changes his words, it would be a crime of deceiving the emperor.

So I could only grit my teeth and bear it.

"Yes, I obey your orders."

On the female guests' cruise ship, many young ladies from official families were sighing.

I bet on the wrong person and lost all those valuable jewellery.

If Gu Ruxiao hadn't been afraid of being criticized, he would have applauded at this moment.

Her royal brother was indeed incomparable.

"Mother, my brother is really amazing! When I have time, I will ask him for advice on his physical skills."

The queen's eyebrows relaxed, a faint smile appeared on her face, and she said helplessly: "Your royal brother is busy with official duties, you should not always bother him."

"I know Queen Mother."

"By the way." Gu Ruxiao turned to everyone and said, "Now you all know who won and who lost, right? Is there anyone who is dissatisfied? Hmm?"

No one dared to speak.

As a result, the three people who invested in Gu Beihuai are now making a fortune.

One of them was Shen Qingyan, and the other two surprised her a little. They were Liu Ruyin, the second daughter of the Minister of Works, and a concubine's daughter in the Shen family named Shen Ruomian.

Shen Ruomian was born to the second concubine of Shen Ming'an, Shen Qingyan's father. Over the years, the mother and daughter have had little presence in the mansion. If she had not voted for Gu Beihuai today, Shen Qingyan would not have even remembered the existence of this half-sister.

Shen Ruomian had delicate features and was wearing an ordinary light green dress that looked a little old-fashioned. She habitually kept her eyes lowered and kept silent. But when she saw so many expensive jewelries being placed in front of her, an imperceptible light flashed in her eyes.

In the Shen Mansion, she and her aunt had always been extremely cautious, fearing that they would make a mistake and ruin their future.

Although she had never been short of food, clothing and other expenses in the mansion, at her age as a delicate flower, even a concubine's daughter would want to dress better. However, her concubine was not favored, so she could only envy her.

Now she has won so many jewelries, which she never dared to imagine before.

Shen Qingyan noticed the change in Shen Ruomian's eyes, and she pushed several high-quality jade bracelets in front of her in front of Shen Ruomian.

Shen Ruomian was immediately flattered and quickly thanked him.

"Thank you, Princess~"
