Chapter 229 Ice Lantern Jade Dew
"Brother!" Feng Xihe couldn't help panicking.

When she got up, she was held back by Gu Shiyin, who persuaded him, "Don't worry, no matter what happens to Zhou Shiqing, he will not openly kill Feng Junyao in the palace and in front of the Chinese mission."

Feng Xihe naturally understood, but she couldn't just sit back and watch the knife being thrown at Feng Junyao.

Gu Shiyin kept grabbing her, and everyone watched the situation on the stage nervously.

The imperial guards have already dispatched one after another to deal with this change.

"Shiqing!" Right Prime Minister Zhou Fang said "huh" and stood up. He couldn't believe that his son would be so reckless.

On the martial arts arena, Zhou Shiqing regained his sanity after hearing Zhou Fang's call.

He realized that this was the imperial palace, and if something really happened to Feng Junyao, it would be him who dragged down the prime minister's mansion.

Besides, he didn't want to really kill Feng Junyao.

Thinking about it, Zhou Shiqing walked over quickly, with the strong wind gathering in the palm of his hand, he turned the direction of the knife vigorously.

In the end, the knife grazed the arm of a warrior in Huaguo, cut the warrior's clothes, and fell to the ground with a "bang".

Feng Xihe breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Zhou Shiqing did not hurt Feng Junyao, otherwise, she would never forgive him.

Everyone had a false alarm, and they all broke into a cold sweat. It was believed that Zhou Shiqing deliberately used this to attract the attention of the Kaihua warriors, and caught them by surprise.

Because of this change, the warriors of the Ning Kingdom and Feng Junyao were also distracted. In the swordsmanship competition between the warriors of the two countries, the Hua Kingdom had the upper hand.

"Sorry, Young Master Feng." After getting off the competition stage, Zhou Shiqing went to apologize to Feng Junyao.

Feng Junyao didn't understand Zhou Shiqing's mind, he just thought it was a momentary mistake, and didn't bother with him too much, after all, in front of the Chinese diplomatic mission, internal strife would also make people laugh.

"Brother, you scared me to death." Feng Xihe Xiao Pao walked in front of Feng Junyao, and whispered: "In the future, it's better not to get close to the people in the prime minister's house, especially sister-in-law."

Feng Junyao frowned, "Your sister-in-law knows someone from Xiangfu?"

Feng Junyao didn't know about Mulanyou's visit to the Xiang's mansion to see the young master.In order not to make him worry, Feng Xihe shook his head and said, "No, I think my sister-in-law hasn't married yet and doesn't live in the Duke's mansion. Besides, there are people coming and going in the hospital, so I need to be more careful."

"That's right. Tomorrow, I will send two more hidden guards for her." Feng Junyao nodded slightly. He also felt that the marriage was too long, and he wished to marry Mulanyou back immediately.

Zhou Shiqing walked back dejectedly, and after hearing Zhou Fang's soft reprimand, he didn't go back directly to the tower, but walked around to a corridor beside the tower.

He also felt that he was too impulsive today and wanted to calm down.

"Young Master Zhou." At this moment, a voice as gentle as a spring breeze suddenly rang in his ears.

Zhou Shiqing looked back and said in surprise, "Your Highness, the second prince, the competition inside is over?"

"No, it will take a while for Mr. Ji and Qi Shouyan to come out to compete." Gu Jincheng pushed the wheelchair and moved closer to Zhou Shiqing, "I just saw Mr. Zhou, you have something on your mind, so I came to see you."

"On the martial arts arena just now, I was bumped by a warrior, and I accidentally threw the knife out." Zhou Shiqing suddenly felt that someone had seen through his mind, and hurriedly averted his eyes.

"I didn't mention the sword competition, Mr. Zhou, why are you talking about this? Could it be..." The smile at the corner of Gu Jincheng's eyes widened inch by inch, as warm and warm as the sun. When Zhou Shiqing saw it, it seemed that an ice knife pierced his bone.

Seeing that he had slipped his tongue, Zhou Shiqing was busy thinking about how to get back.

Gu Jincheng took the first step, and said, "Whether it's fighting for what you want, it's inevitable that you will have some emotions."

"I didn't compete with Young Master Feng." Zhou Shiqing still refused to admit it.

Gu Jincheng said meaningfully: "I remember, Your Majesty wants to choose one of you and Young Master Feng to be the commander of the imperial army. Why is there no competition between you?"

"I think that's why you deliberately missed."

It turned out that Gu Jincheng was referring to the commander of the imperial army.Zhou Shiqing took a long breath, and it would be better for others to think about it.

In fact, he really doesn't have much interest in being the commander of the imperial army. If his father didn't insist on asking, he wouldn't argue with Feng Junyao about it.

"Since His Royal Highness the Second Prince noticed it, I will not hide it anymore. That's right, I missed the knife in the competition just because I was eager to win."

Gu Jincheng didn't put it bluntly, but was persuasive, "I can understand Mr. Zhou's mood. However, I want to remind you that it is necessary to use some means when fighting for what you want!"

"Even if you do everything you can, as long as you can get it, you will be the winner. Otherwise, you will just bury your thoughts in your heart, and you will not be able to grasp them for the rest of your life!"

Zhou Shiqing was taken aback, feeling that what Gu Jincheng was referring to was not just about fighting for the command of the imperial army.

"What is the meaning of His Highness the Second Prince's words?"

"When she is by your side, you have to catch her as soon as possible! This is what I said here, and what to do is up to Young Master Zhou." After Gu Jincheng finished speaking, he pushed the wheelchair and returned to the tower .

Seeing Gu Jincheng's return, Feng Xihe's eyes gradually darkened.

At this time, Yun Changyi had also returned to his seat, waiting with great anticipation for the next competition.

At present, there have been two competitions in the past, Ning Guo won the competition of ancient music, and Hua Guo won the competition of knife skills.

The final outcome is the duel between Ji Shiliu and Qi Shouyan on the chessboard.

It will take a quarter of an hour for the two of them to arrive. During the waiting period, Yu Wenhao asked Hua Guo's envoys to present some items brought from Hua Guo to the princes, nobles and their wives. .

Some women's relatives gave enamel face fans, floating brocade, green jade pillows and other women's favorite objects, while Yu Wenhao gave Feng Xihe a unique and elegant plant.

Yu Wenhao said with a smile: "Princess Zhiyu is also good at painting. It is called Ice Lantern Jade Dew. It is most suitable for placing on a desk. It can add a lot of fun when you paint."

When the court lady put the small porcelain flowerpot in front of Feng Xihe, Feng Xihe looked down and saw that this kind of ice lamp jade dew was crystal bright and tender green, and the plump leaves were juicy and plump, like lotus petals. Surrounding it, it looks like an ice lantern, carved with powder and jade, it is really cute.

Feng Xihe fell in love with it immediately, so she readily accepted it.

Then, she asked the maid to fetch the water bottle and pour some water on the ice lamp jade dew.

Yu Wenhao really read her mind.

However, when Gu Shiyin saw that Feng Xihe liked this pot of ice lamp and jade dew so much, he suddenly felt bad.

He coughed, trying to warn.

Feng Xihe's eyes stayed on the plump ice lamp and jade dew, he couldn't help but frowned, and his anger burst out.

"Throw it away!"

Feng Xihe finally met his favorite plant, how could he be willing to throw it away as soon as he said it, and immediately ignored his words.

Gu Shiyin endured the dissatisfaction in his heart, and eased his tone, "If you like it, I can go and bring back hundreds of pots and thousands of pots for you, put them in the study, and let you enjoy them all."

Is he having trouble with a potted plant?Feng Xi and "Puchi" laughed out loud, then she turned her head and said, "Didn't I play a piece of breaking music for you just now, my husband?"

"No matter how much you like it, it's not as good as your husband."

As soon as Gu Shiyin said this, he immediately stopped being annoyed. On the contrary, he also felt that Bingdeng Yulu became cute.

A quarter of an hour passed, and Ji Shiliu and Qi Shouyan returned to the tower as promised. In the center, a chessboard had already been placed. The green-glazed chess jar was opened and placed beside the chessboard.

Ji Shiliu and Qi Shouyan bowed their hands to each other and saluted, then lifted their robes and knelt down by the chessboard, and began to stalk the eternal endgame.

Everyone held their breath and looked at the two of them anxiously.

I saw Qi Shouyan twisted a black chess piece with confidence and put it down.

Ji Shiliu casually picked up a white chess piece, outflanking Qi Shouyan's chess move.

When the hands go down to No.30 and the third hand, the situation of fighting together is very complicated.

Facing Ji Shiliu's casualness, Qi Shouyan seemed a little embarrassed. Just now, when he went to the Nuan Pavilion to study the chess records, Yun Changyi reminded him that Ji Shiliu should not be underestimated.

Qi Shouyan's palms began to sweat, staring at the chessboard, thinking hard.

He can't lose, after all, he has never lost in his career as a chess player, and he boasted that if he loses, he will kill himself.

At this moment, Ji Shiliu's fingertips had already twisted a chess piece, and her eyes were fixed on one place on the chessboard.

He had thought about it for a long time in the warm pavilion before, but he couldn't figure it out. At this moment, a flash of light came to his mind.

This endgame seems to be complicated, but there are many ways to go, and the game will eventually come to a conclusion. As long as it is played here, it will be the way to solve it, and it will become a set situation.

Qi Shouyan looked at Ji Shiliu's slowly falling fingers, and his pupils suddenly dilated. The master who solved the double sign at this step was Zhenshentou.

If Ji Shiliu loses, then in this game, if he keeps his word, he will definitely lose.

Qi Shouyan's heart jumped into his throat, he didn't want to disappoint Yu Wenhao's expectations.

Everyone was also looking at the white chess piece that Ji Shiliu was about to drop. However, Ji Shiliu suddenly felt dazzled, and she let go of her fingers and fell directly on the chessboard.

The white chess piece rolled down to the ground.

There was an uproar everywhere, and everyone felt sorry for Ji Shiliu's fainting.

With a hook of Yun Changyi's lips, Feng Xi and his icy eyes swept over.

Qi Shouyan was panting uncontrollably, Ji Shiliu passed out, but he felt uneasy.

He remembered that Yun Changyi had mentioned to him at the time that he didn't have to worry about winning or losing, because the tea served to Ji Shiliu had already been drugged.

Almost when they were playing chess, the drug kicked in.

Qi Shouyan knew that it would be disgraceful to use this method to force the opponent back, but he didn't want to disappoint Yu Wenhao.

His strange expression naturally fell into Yu Wenhao's eyes, and Yu Wenhao stared at him closely.

"Since Mr. Ji has fainted, then this game is won by chess and words." The Hua Guo envoy announced immediately with great interest.
