I am a cat in the palace

Having said that, Rourou paused with a grin, the originally noisy hall was already audible when he said this.

The Seventh Prince of Yu raised his eyebrows, and looked at Rourou with interest, "Say."

"The first element of bravery has never been determined by strength, but by whether you have the heart of a brave man. The Seventh Prince thinks this king is right?"

"Well, I can't see that you are not very big, but the truth is quite clear. I, Dayu, admire the brave most. There are many powerful people, but very few have the heart of a brave man."

"Then let's have a competition today to see who has the stronger heart of a brave man." Rourou looked around at everyone in the hall with a smile.

"How are you going to compare?" The Seventh Prince couldn't help showing curiosity.

"This king's comparison is very simple, but I don't know if you dare to compare, Prince Yu?"

The Seventh Prince of Yu State suddenly showed arrogance, "Competing with the wooden palace? Just you? This palace is a horse that has run through thousands of troops. Are you still afraid of you, a yellow-mouthed child? Just say it, and my highness will definitely accompany you!" .”

On the other hand, the envoy of the State of Yu tugged at the sleeves of their princes with a bit of worry, seeing the sensual calmness, but was thrown away by the Seventh Prince of the State of Yu.After that, the envoy of the State of Yu didn't continue to stop him, and probably didn't believe that a child as young as Rourou could come up with any idea that his prince couldn't handle.

Rourou smiled and waved to several attendants, explaining things like this, telling the attendants to prepare things, and at the same time explaining to everyone the competition method he came up with.

The method is very simple. Blindfold him and the seventh prince, tie their hands behind their backs, and place a board full of spikes at the height of their heads and chests. Whoever picks the paper flowers stuck on the pegboard first with his mouth wins.Because he is smaller and shorter than the Seventh Prince, his starting distance will be closer to the pegboard.

Hearing this comparison, and then seeing the two nail boards nailed with seven-inch long nails that were carried out from nowhere by the palace servants, the inside and outside of the hall became very calm. Many officials, women and servants could not help but exclaimed.

Not only were there screams inside and outside the hall, even I couldn't help screaming, how did this brat come up with such a bad idea?In this case, if he really ran too fast and couldn't stop, and hit his head on the nail board, his face would be bloody, and his eyes might be pierced blind.

"no!"

"No!"

Two voices rang out almost at the same time. It was the old emperor and the envoy of Yu State. The envoy of Yu State even stood up in a hurry.

But none of the two young princes standing in the center of the hall looked away from each other.

"Little boy, your father said no."

"My father is worried that if you get injured, Seventh Prince, it will affect the relationship between our two countries."

The proud expression of the Seventh Prince was turned into an angry expression by Rourou's words, "It's you who he's worried about. Are you really more important than this?"

"Does the Seventh Prince have any better suggestions?" Rourou spread his hands, as if looking forward to the Seventh Prince's better suggestion.

The Seventh Prince stared fiercely at the little flesh and fell silent for a moment, gritted his teeth and sneered, and replied: "Once a man speaks out, it's hard to chase after him. I've said it, as long as you say it, I will definitely accompany you."

The prince of Yu Kingdom agreed, this matter is not as simple as a dispute between two children. There are two princes above the hall. They represent two countries, or two countries that have not been dealt with very much. However, winning or losing between them is tantamount to winning or losing a war. At this time, whether it is the people of Yu State or Xia State who come forward to stop it, it can only be understood as cowardice and shame.

The old emperor frowned and sat on the head. Looking carefully, he could find that his back was very straight, even a little stiff.

A palace attendant came up with a thick black cloth towel, blindfolded the two princes respectively, and tied their hands behind their backs. The two stood one after the other, not too far apart, but generally speaking It's not too far from their start to the pegboard.

The entire hall was quiet, and a needle could be heard. A wise person added the rules. During the competition, neither side is allowed to give a hint. If there is a hint or hint, it will be regarded as an admission of defeat.In order to avoid the suspicion of Li Xia in the melon field, everyone in the hall tightly shut their mouths.

The two princes have already made their preparations, and they are already standing in their starting positions, looking very calm and relaxed.

For the sake of fairness, Fa Ren invited the ambassador of Liang Guo, another friend of Da Xia, to act. He was a very smooth and graceful old man. I don't know if it was on purpose or he was really old. After walking slowly for a long time, he walked to the middle of the hall.

"According to my humble opinion, the two Highnesses are very courageous, but this competition is too dangerous, so it is better not to continue."

"Old man, why are there so many nonsense, just start shouting." The Seventh Prince of Yu Kingdom, who was blindfolded for a long time, was already impatient with waiting, and at this moment he had already begun to calculate what speed he was going to run. In the past, he was able to win against that little guy who seemed to be only half his height without hurting himself. If he lost behind that little guy, he would be ashamed to go back to Yu Kingdom.

It was probably the first time that Liang Guoguo was called an old man so disrespectfully on a grand and formal occasion. Although he still had an envoy's smile on his face, he looked at the Seventh Prince of Yu State with a somewhat unfriendly gaze.

"His Royal Highness, after all, you are still young. Today you can stand in the center of the hall, and everyone has seen your courage. There is really no need to do such a dangerous competition. Moreover, compared with the seventh prince of Yu Kingdom , you are really too young, this competition is actually unfair in the eyes of the old man."

With these words, the Seventh Prince of Yu State turned pale on the spot, and the envoy of Yu State also turned pale.In fact, when the seventh prince of his family accepted the challenge of the third prince of Xia, he wanted to stop it, because this competition was meaningless, no matter whether the third prince of Xia won or lost, he was already in an undefeated position , because he is really too young, all he has to do is to stand up and save Xia Guo's face.And even if the Seventh Prince wins this extremely risky competition, people will say that he is bullying a child, and the victory is invincible. If it happens, the Seventh Prince loses this competition, Then Yuguo would be ashamed.

No matter how you look at it, Yu Guo should not have agreed to this competition, but who knew that the stupid boy, the Seventh Prince, would agree to it?And he was so stupid that Liang Guoguo's envoy would not even go down the steps.Why!Sure enough, he knew that he was causing trouble for himself by bringing this prince with developed limbs but no head. God knows, if the seventh prince loses this time, will he be picked on by His Highness the Crown Prince? Go bear hunting in the snowfields of Tulakan.

"Master Liang Guoguo, thank you," Rourou nodded in the direction of Liang Guoguo's words, "but this challenge was proposed by His Royal Highness Prince Yu, and I am just accepting the challenge." The implication is that this competition Whether to stop or not depends on his will.

I am really surprised, he is obviously just a young boy, how could he have such great courage, on such occasions, with such a calm attitude to say so many well-organized words, at this moment, in my eyes In the room, the fleshy little body stood there upright, unexpectedly exuding an upright and refreshing smell.

"It seems that this competition is imperative. Well then, please get ready, Your Highness—start!"

With an order, the two princes ran forward at the same time...

-----

Cheers erupted in the arena.

"His Highness King Zhen is a thousand years old!"

"A thousand years, a thousand years, a thousand years!"

"You're cheating!" As soon as the hand was untied, the Seventh Prince tore off the blindfold from his face and threw it on the ground.

Rourou ignored him, raised his hand casually to wipe away the blood stains on his forehead, took out the paper flower in his mouth, put it on the plate of the waiter next to him, and watched him present the flower to him, finally relaxed his mind, but The old emperor, who was still a little angry, said, "Go and call the imperial physician!"

In fact, there had been an imperial physician waiting at the side for a long time, just waiting for the old emperor to give an order, the imperial physician immediately stepped forward to treat the wound.Hearing the imperial doctor's reply that the flesh is just a little skin trauma and it's okay, I slowly retracted the tip of my nails on the girder. On the beam of Jinsinan, several deep paw prints have been drawn.

"Your Highness, Seventh Prince, please be careful! Your Highness King Zhen's eyes were blinded by your Liang Guo envoy, and your hands were also bound by your Liang Guo envoy. No one reminded you during the competition. Why did you cheat?" Even if there are loyal ministers jumping out to make a theory.

"That's right, His Royal Highness King Zhen charged straight up without fear of nails, and now he is injured, and the Seventh Prince is standing here intact." Another voice even taunted the Seventh Prince and threw it at him. .

The Seventh Prince was so angry that the top of his head was about to smoke. In fact, he was not running too slowly. Although he was a little scared later, and his steps slowed down a bit, the key issue was not whether he was running fast, but whether he was running fast. He didn't even touch the sides of the nail boards, and ran directly over the head. He never expected that this competition would have such a result, so he was naturally not angry.

The envoy of the State of Yu didn't expect the result of the contest between the two princes to be like this, and he felt as if he had been tricked, but he couldn't explain why.For a while, the whole hall was full of verbal confrontation. Of course, ministers who are good at diplomatic rhetoric would do this kind of thing. Rourou had already returned to his seat with a wound representing glory. In front of many states and ministers, he robbed If you pluck the flower before the Seventh Prince, you are the winner. You just need to hold the flower and smile, and sit quietly to accept everyone's approving gazes.
