Doting on concubines and destroying wives? I don’t want to be the mistress of the Hou clan anymore.

Chapter 114 Lost
The competition was originally scheduled to start in the morning, but because the emperor got up late, it was changed to the afternoon.

The competition was nothing to see, it was just a matter of everyone shooting at a target together.

The first competition was with directional targets, and only the top 20 players were eligible to enter the second round of mounted shooting.

In the end, Gu Zhao lost to Dong Xuan by an arrow, which made everyone feel regretful and jealous of Dong Xuan.

Liang Yuqi only finished tenth, so naturally no one paid attention to him.

The emperor who was watching outside was extremely angry: "How did he compete? Did he not open his eyes or something? Why did he lose!"

Gu Zhao was called in and stood at the bottom a little shyly, his face drooped, looking very ashamed.

Chen Jue was a little angry, and so were the people watching the excitement. Even Lin Miaofu was a little worried about Gu Zhao's safety!
Because many things have changed, Lin Miaofu no longer knows whether Gu Zhao will be implicated.

"You brat! What are you doing at home during this time?" The emperor laughed and scolded Tie Buchengang: "Do you know that you exported all the commanders of my Jinwu Guards! I'm going to be so angry!"

Looking at it, he doesn’t look really angry!

Gu Zhao admitted his mistake in a low voice with a very humble attitude.

The emperor would scold several princes, several princesses, and even the empress, but he rarely scolded the children of the Gongqing family in front of their faces. Even Chen Jue rarely spoke by himself.

Today, he scolded Gu Zhao in front of everyone.

"Okay!" the emperor said angrily: "It's not bad to get second place. I'll reward you! It's the same texture as the jade piece yesterday, so it makes a perfect pair."

The venue became almost silent, and everyone's eyes couldn't help but focus on Gu Zhao and Lin Miaofu.

Most of them are envious, and many are jealous of the two of them.

Dong Xuan smiled bitterly, even if he complied with his father's request and practiced hard every day, he finally came out on top in the competition, defeated Gu Zhao and became the first place, so what!
What those people cared about was Gu Zhao, he couldn't get past him no matter what!
Thinking about it makes me feel unwilling.

But so what?
After all, it was not easy to get a real shortage of Jinwu Guard Commander.

Those who participate in the great competition and win the title will have the opportunity to serve in the Eight Guards of the Emperor.

For those who already have official positions, there will be other rewards.

The second half is free, but there are also songs and dances. The second day is the highlight of the autumn hunt... the hunt.

Liang Yuqi was not in the mood to watch the singing and dancing competition. He asked the commanders of Jinyi Guard and Jinwu Guard to learn about the situation.

Dong Xuan had just taken office, and before he could greet the people around him, he was pulled aside by Liang Yuqi.

"Mr. Liang, there will be hunting in a while. What on earth do you want? You must ask at this time."

Dong Xuan still maintained his demeanor, but his brows were furrowed and he didn't want to waste any more words with him.

"I am acting impartially, and I hope the commander will ask you to bear with me." Liang Yuqi felt that he was handling affairs for His Majesty and the public, and his attitude was naturally bossy, showing that he was neither humble nor overbearing.

In terms of family status, he is also a marquis. Although he is somewhat in decline now, his status is still higher than that of Dong Xuan, the heir apparent.

"what do you need?"

"I just need you to provide the manpower to patrol Xiangshan these days."

Dong Xuan raised his eyebrows, looked at him with a half-smile and said: "Master Liang, have you forgotten that I just became the commander today, and the defense of Xiangshan was not arranged by me."

The implication is that he has found the wrong person. Liang Yuxin didn't know that he had also approached the former commander Deng Kai, but he said that he was no longer the commander and was not qualified to provide these things anymore. If he wanted to go to the current commander, he would have to go to the current commander.

Deng Kai was originally supervising the Jinwu Guards, but now that he has a new commander, he naturally lets him go.

In fact, the new commander of Jinwu Guards could not officially take office until he arrived at Xiangshan Mountain, the emperor issued an imperial edict, and a handover ceremony was held.

Now, Deng Kai still has real power.

It was just because Deng Kai had a good relationship with Gu Zhao and looked down on Liang Yuqi that he deliberately made things difficult for him. Who knew that he was really ignorant at all and actually rushed to Dong Xuan to ask for something.

Dong Xuan understood as soon as he heard this. This was Deng Kai's deliberate evasion. He was unhappy in his heart, but he had to pretend to be uninformed and explain: "I haven't had time to finish the handover with Commander Deng, at least I have to wait until next time." After arriving at Xiangshan, the things can be given to you only after the two parties have made a clear settlement."

Once we leave Xiangshan, the search will become even more difficult and the matter will go unsolved.

He, the organizer, was afraid that he would follow suit and the chance of success that he had finally obtained would be ruined. Naturally, Liang Yuqi was unwilling to do so.

He couldn't deal with that old fox Deng Kai, so couldn't he keep an eye on Dong Xuan?

"But, since you are already the commander, now, under the patrol of Jinwu Guards, someone ran into the women's tent, I'm afraid you also have to bear the responsibility."

Soft ones cannot be flattened to hard ones.

Liang Yuqi knew that if he wanted to run an errand well, he would naturally offend many people, and he was not afraid of offending people. Anyway, there were many people who supported him.

Dong Xuan laughed angrily after hearing this. What kind of bullshit is he? He dared to threaten himself. Is he, Dong Xuan, a soft persimmon who can be manipulated by others?

"Master Liang, I can't provide it today, and I won't be able to provide it tomorrow. If you really want to know, please ask for the decree, and I will have someone go find it for you immediately."

Dong Xuan didn't say anything, he bowed his hands and left: "Sorry, I have to prepare for hunting in the afternoon."

After saying that, he left, leaving Liang Yuqi in a daze.

He gritted his teeth secretly, knowing that these people were just bullying him and had no background.

If Gu Zhao came to see them, if they dared to shirk it like this, they would just send it to him personally as soon as they got the letter.

Liang Yuqi was filled with anger, but he had to bite the bullet and continue to investigate.

However, since he has no connections, he will naturally run into obstacles everywhere.

After waiting for a while, they went to find the second princess, and now the eldest princess Jiacheng made up her mind.

It's a pity that he came at an unexpected time. The second princess and the consort went out to ride horses, and they didn't know when they would come back.

Deng Kai happened to come out of the emperor's tent and saw Liang Yuqi wandering around like a headless fly from a distance. He sneered in his heart and planned to take a detour to leave.

But Liang Yuqi still saw him, and he now looked at Deng Kai like a life-saving straw.

"Master Deng, help me." Liang Yuqi gave a long bow and said, "I really have no choice, so I came to you for help!"

Deng Kai has been the emperor's confidant for so many years, so he naturally understands the principle of keeping a secret to meet each other in the future. This man can put down his body and ask for himself, which is considered to be a bit courageous. In this case, he can't do it all.

"Come on, let's talk over there."
