Mixed in Datang to be a son-in-law

It was Wei Zheng who came.

Hearing this, he laughed and said, "You, you, what does His Majesty mean today, can't you see it?"

Chapter 222

Du Ruhui pretended not to care and said, "What do you mean?"

"It's very simple, I want Prince Consort Zhou to lose."

"Oh." Du Ru replied indifferently.

Wei Zheng laughed loudly, and said, "I dare to speak out against everyone, but I think you, Old Du, are the toughest."

Du Ruhui sighed quietly: "My life is saved by my words. Even if I know something cannot be done, I have to try it, otherwise my conscience will be troubled."

Wei Zheng said: "Zhou Concubine is too stubborn, and he is not ordinary stubborn. That is against His Majesty. It is right for His Majesty to give him a little color. You can talk about this matter, and don't mix it up. Anyway. It's not a big deal."

After a pause, he said again: "Actually, it's not a bad thing for Zhou Consort to lose, it just sharpens his character."

"Why do I always find it weird when these words come out of your mouth?" Du Ruhui gave him a strange look.

"I act according to color, everything is under control," Wei Zheng said with a smile, "And even if Concubine Zhou gets out of prison this time, he won't be able to win."

"How to say?"

"There are three competitions in total," Wei Zheng said, "I heard that the masters of martial arts are the top masters invited from the Miaoyin Pavilion."

"Miaoyin Pavilion?"

Du Ruhui seemed to remember something, and his pupils shrank slightly.

"Hehe, as for the horse rider, let's talk about him as a general. He has so many young brave generals under his command. If he comes out at random, his equestrian skills may not be comparable to Zhou's."

Du Ruhui nodded.

"Archery is even more interesting," Wei Zheng approached and said, "Guess who it is?"

Du Ruhui frowned slightly, "Then Li Junxian himself is a master of arrows, who else could it be?"

"Li Junxian wouldn't be so shameless on himself," Wei Zheng said, "It's Shan Daozhen."

"What is he?"

Du Ruhui exclaimed, "Why does this person help Li Junxian?"

"Hehe, you don't want to know what the relationship between Li Ji and Li Junxian is?"

Wei Zheng caressed his beard and said: "When Shan Xiongxin died, Li Ji adopted Shan Daozhen. Today Li Junxian went to ask for a favor. Can Shan Daozhen not help?"

"Isn't that a lost game?"

Du Ruhui said blankly: "Shan Dao really has the style of being a father. He is known as the number one archer of the younger generation in the Tang Dynasty. This..."

"So you also know what His Majesty means?"

Wei Zheng shook his head and said, "Don't meddle in this matter, no matter how you meddle, you will lose."

Du Ruhui sighed softly, his gaze complicated...

Finally, the day of the competition arrived.

This morning, Suzaku was outside the gate.

People who came from all directions early in the morning to join in the fun, just entered here, and they can feel that the atmosphere is a little different.

I saw a huge arena, four or five feet long and wide, standing in the center of the square in front of the Vermilion Gate Suzaku Gate.

A hundred steps away from the outside of the arena is an archery target that looks extremely solid.

At this moment, the guards of the Forbidden Army who were fully armed were already standing all around, with swords, guns, swords and halberds everywhere, looking like a forest.

Everyone stood cautiously not far away. There is a special place for painting here for ordinary people to watch.

Large and small, dozens of circles were drawn around, and it didn't take long for them to be full of people.

There are still people coming from behind.

In the morning light, the square at Suzaku Gate began to faintly become lively.

"Hey, Brother Zhu, why are you here so early in the morning? Don't you live in Qinglongfang?" Suddenly a person said in surprise.

"Brother Liu," one of them rubbed his face, muttered a few words, and said, "I stayed in Pingkang Fang last night, and almost didn't sleep all night. If I lived in Qinglong Fang, would I still have a place today?"

"That's true. I heard that the emperor is coming today, but I don't know when it will arrive. If I can see the holy face at that time, my life will not be in vain."

"Look at how promising you are," although the man surnamed Zhu said so, but there was the same light in his eyes.

Obviously, he is very interested in the upcoming competition and the emperor.

As more and more ordinary people came, some princes and nobles also arrived one after another.

"Look, Brother Liu, Duke Yi is here."

"Yi Guogong Qin Shubao?" The man surnamed Zhu exclaimed, "That is a famous general of our Tang Dynasty."

"Also, the ones who came with him seem to be Cheng Zhijie, Li Jing and others."

"I didn't expect all these princes to come. It seems that today is really a big day."

"No." Hearing the two talking, a knowledgeable person turned around and said: "The emperor is here today, can these famous generals of our Tang Dynasty not come?"

"Hey, look quickly, is that Cai Guogong?"

"Duke is here?"

Everyone looked around.

It is rare to see these great people, but today they saw a group of them, and they all came one by one, causing the crowd to cheer.

The people of the Tang Dynasty are very simple. Facing these great figures, everyone shows admiration. These are the founders of today's prosperous age.

Every one of them is a big figure who can cause the whole Chang'an to shake, and I am afraid that they will all be here today.

How can people not be excited?

"That seems to be the Cui family? Who are those two girls?" Suddenly someone was in doubt.

"It's indeed the Cui family," someone recognized, "You don't know those two women? They are two of the four beauties in Chang'an. The one on the left is Princess Li Danyue from Guantao, and the one on the right is You Bai Yumei丨Yan Ruyu as people call her."

"I'll go, it's too beautiful."

The effect caused by the two beauties was so shocking that almost the entire crowd in the square fell silent immediately.

He looked at Li Danyue and Yan Ruyu.

However, the two women seemed to be used to this kind of scene, chatting and laughing, walked to a good position not far from the ring and sat down.

As the number of people increased, some high platforms began to be set up around the arena, reserved for dignified princes and ministers to watch.

However, this kind of position is very rare. Yan Ruyu's identity alone is not enough to qualify for the position, but with Li Danyue, it is much easier.

"Duke Qi is here! Make it easy."

Suddenly he sang "Hey," and the people under the ring stepped aside one after another, only to see Changsun Wuji, leading Changsun Chong and several guards, coming with their hands behind their backs.

The eldest grandson Wuji is the number one favored minister today, and he is very dignified.

When he appeared, no matter whether it was ordinary people or princes and ministers, they all dared not show their air and looked at him with solemn eyes.

"This is the Duke of Qi." The man surnamed Zhu before had a look of envy in his eyes, "If a man can achieve such a status, he will die without regret."

"Then you have to have a good sister and be able to follow the right person."

Brother Liu next to him muttered something in a low voice.

"The number one minister in the world, Changsun Wuji." The man surnamed Zhu seemed not to have heard his words, and was still muttering to himself.

Chapter 223 Before the game

Changsun Wuji walked to the best seat and sat down, with a calm face, glanced at the audience, and then picked up the tea that had been prepared.

Sitting next to him was Chang Sun Chong.

Changsun Chong looked at the sea of ​​people, feeling extremely proud. Today he is here to witness the birth of a joke.

But if you look carefully, you will find that his face is still bruised and purple.

At this moment, the Suzaku door suddenly opened slowly, and then someone sang loudly, "His Royal Highness is here."

"Prince, the prince is here."

Some women looked up with interest in their eyes.

It's just a pity for them that Li Chengqian was under the protection of the guards from the beginning to the end, and then walked to the high platform and sat on the side of Changsun Wuji.

Very low-key.

"Why didn't the emperor come?"

Those who should come are coming soon, but Li Shimin has not arrived, and the most important seat is given to Changsun Wuji, which makes everyone very puzzled.

"Second brother, where is Your Majesty?"

A tall and slender girl asked with a puzzled face.

The little girl's appearance is alluring, and her temperament is ethereal, like a fairy in the sky. Beside her is a handsome young man dressed in brocade.

They are none other than a pair of children of King Ren Cheng, Li Jiaxueyan and Jing Ren.

Beside them, surrounded by a group of servants, they were tightly protected.

King Ren Cheng is not in Chang'an, otherwise the two should have a high position.

Now they can only huddle together with ordinary people to watch.

Li Jingren glanced at it, pointed to the city wall and said, "Your Majesty probably won't come out, he will watch there."

"Ah?" Li Xueyan was surprised: "It's so high, can you see clearly?"

"Hehe, it can be said that there is the best position, and you don't even have to look at where the ring is placed."

Li Xueyan is ice smart, after watching for a while, she understood, "It's really like this. Second brother, who do you think will win this time?"

"If the news is good, General Li should win."

"Is that so, what a pity," Li Xueyan curled her lips, "Consort Zhou is still in prison, he won here, it's really... hard to describe."

Li Jingren sighed slightly in his heart, he had no choice but to do anything, anyone who knows a little bit about everything today should know.

The emperor didn't want the Zhou family to win at all, so this in itself was a contest of unequal strength.

Sure enough, soon Li Shimin and Empress Changsun appeared, but Long Jia was placed on the top of the city.and did not come down.

This disappointed many people who were rushing to see the emperor and empress.

But as more and more people were around and the atmosphere became more and more enthusiastic, this unhappiness quickly disappeared completely.

Next is the debut of the two forces.

The Li family came first.

But what is surprising is that the leader of the Li family is not Li Junxian, but Li Bi.

In other words, Li Junxian did not come to the scene.

Li Bi was sitting in a wheelchair, followed by a group of people, led by three very imposing people, which made people know that they should not be underestimated.

"It's over, don't talk about other things, just talk about archery, the Zhou family will lose next time."

"How to say?" Someone was puzzled.

"Did you see the man with the bow on his back? That's a great archer from the younger generation of my Tang Dynasty. His father is Shan Xiongxin. It is said that he has the ability to penetrate Yang with a hundred steps."

"so smart?"

"Not only is he powerful, but to be honest, many generals are not his opponents now. To say that they are the archers of the younger generation is just to save face for those veterans."
