After Huo Qing finished speaking, he looked specifically at Zhao She who was standing next to him. Although Zhao She had just stepped in to help him out, the matter was settled. He still had to find someone to settle the matter regarding his granddaughter.
The first one to bear the brunt of this is the Zhao family.
Zhao She looked back at Huo Qing as if nothing was wrong, as if to say: Go on, we are listening.
Huo Qing was confused. Why was this old guy so calm? Shouldn't he be furious or criticize why the Huo family did this? This old guy seemed to be unusual today. Seeing that Zhao She didn't respond, Huo Qing continued:
: "This competition is divided into three competitions, two martial arts competitions and one literary competition. Both juniors from our two families come to compete. It is not for the sake of superiority, but for the purpose of presenting gifts."
Huo Qing still saved face for the Zhao family. It doesn't matter if you lose. It's just a gift, and there is no dispute about superiority. Although Huo Qing said this, the people below may not think so? You must know that Wen Wu is the first,
Wu Wu is the second best person. Naturally, the competition will determine the ranking. Why not compete with the Wu family? Play house?
"How's it going? Brother, isn't this a good suggestion?" Huo Qing asked Zhao She.
"Yes, yes, I wonder which juniors I will send out to compete?" Zhao She asked with a smile.
"Xinghan, Xinglie, Xingyue." Huo Qing shouted loudly, and Huo Xingyue looked at Zhao Jin helplessly and walked out.
Ye Wuqing looked sympathetically at Zhao Jin and said, "Brother, it seems that you have a long way to go after a beauty."
"Chasing a wife is never easy, but no one can take my wife away." Zhao Jin said confidently, and directly classified Huo Xingyue into the wife column.
"I thought I was crazy, but you are crazier than me, okay. I like you, buddy." Ye Wuqing gave a thumbs up and praised, as if the two of them had known each other for a long time.
"Jin'er, why don't I go out with you later? I still have confidence in the martial arts competition." Zhao Qian said behind Zhao Jin. She didn't know there was such a thing as a competition, let alone her brother's true identity.
strength.
"No, sister. I am enough for this situation." Zhao Jin rejected his sister's kindness. The Zhao family depends on him to protect it. If he can't survive the current situation, then what's the point of talking about the future?
Zhao She in front saw the three descendants of the Huo family and said calmly: "Yes, they are all good. It's a pity that the descendants of my Zhao family are withering away. I'll just send one, Zhao Jin, the bastard, come up here."
Zhao Jin gave Zhao Qian an innocent look and walked out. Sheng Yuanyuan on the side saw this and became thoughtful.
Zhao Jin came to Zhao She, looked at the three people opposite, and smiled. Then he focused on Huo Xingyue, feeling uncomfortable staring at Huo Xingyue.
Huo Qing looked at Zhao She in surprise. It was true that the descendants of the Zhao family were withering away, but at least there was still Zhao Qian. I heard that girl was also a good child. If Zhao She let her go, at least the Zhao family would not
It would be too ugly to lose. Why did Mr. Zhao just call a loser to come up? Isn't this obviously looking for defeat?
Zhao She ignored Huo Qing's expression and asked: "Brother Huo, you think we should set the rules and order of the competition. Let our generals see the strength of our juniors. Gentlemen, what do you think?"
"
"Yes!" So the generals shouted. Although they didn't think much of the Zhao family, they agreed with Zhao She's proposal. The competition was fair and aboveboard.
Huo Qing didn't know where Zhao She's confidence came from. In this case, he didn't say much. So he said: "Three competitions, the first archery competition, our side will be played by Huo Xingyue. Whoever hits the arrow will be the winner."
Win more. In the second competition, Huo Xinglie will appear on our side. Whoever appears loses. In the third competition, poetry and poetry will be judged by everyone present. Brother, do you think this is good?"
Zhao She thought for a moment and looked at Zhao Jin. Zhao Jin thought it was nothing, fair, just and open, so he nodded. When Zhao She saw his grandson nodding, he said nothing and said, "That's it.
.But we still have to set up a lottery. If I lose, I’ll treat everyone to dinner. If Brother Huo loses, it’s the same. But nothing can be changed, and the wine must be enough. How about it?"
"Hahahaha..." A burst of hearty laughter broke out from below. This was not a mockery, but a laugh from the old handsome man.
"Okay, it's up to you." Huo Qing also smiled, as if this competition was not that important. "Children, get ready to go."
The generals quickly gave up a large area of the field, and soon someone placed two archery targets in the distance. Everyone was ready to watch the competition.
Zhao Jin squatted on the ground, Ye Wuqing squatted beside him, and behind him were Ulie and others. Ye Wuqing held a piece of grass in his mouth and asked in a very shameless manner: "Zhao Jin, how sure do you want to be?"
Win your wife?"
"I don't know. The problem is that I don't know how to shoot." Zhao Jin answered honestly. It is true that Zhao Jin can use swords and other things flexibly, but he cannot use long-range weapons such as bows and arrows. Do you think that a person who is used to using firearms will go
Use bows and arrows to kill people?
"Then just admit defeat in the first game." Ye Wu was upset and could understand, "Anyway, there are three games, and you will win the next two games the same."
Zhao Jin shook his head and said that he should compete seriously. This was his principle. Besides, Huo Xingyue didn't want to see him shrinking from the battle. In order to prevent his future wife from looking down on him, she had to compete in this competition no matter what. "Feng Gu,
Tell me what you need to know about bows and arrows."
"Ah, are you learning now? Is it too late?" Ye Wuqing said in surprise.
"It's better than doing nothing." Zhao Jin stood up.
Soon, three more drums sounded, and the competition began. Huo Xingyue walked out, holding a purple bow in her hand. It looked like it was not an ordinary one. Coupled with her extraordinary appearance, she immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the audience.
As soon as the light came on, Zhao Jin came out with a bow on his shoulder. He looked very vulgar and was not on the same level as Huo Xingyue. The whole audience immediately booed.
Ye Wuqing returned to his seat. He was a prince, so naturally he would not stand with ordinary people. Sitting next to him was Sheng Yuanyuan. When she saw him coming back, she said playfully: "What? I'll give it to you, my good friend."
I’m done cheering up.”
"Hey, I have fought, but his chance of winning is almost slim. He has just learned how to draw a bow. Do you think he will be a match for General Yunqing's daughter?" Ye Wuqing lamented.
"Is that so?" Sheng Yuanyuan looked at the two people on the field, "Wu Qing, how about we also set a lottery?"
"Lottery? What do you want?" Ye Wuqing said with a look of horror. He and Sheng Yuanyuan seemed to have won every bet.
"Look at your nervousness, just set up a lottery for fun. Let's each bet on one side. In the first game, we will bet on one hundred gold beads. In the second game, the base winning rate will be doubled. In the third game, we will double the winning rate in the second game. What's the matter?
So, if you do the math, you won't lose much money." Sheng Yuanyuan said the lottery and the rules with an innocent look.
Ye Wuqing was sweating. Every time he was carried on this girl inexplicably. If he was not careful this time, he would have made the same mistake again. Ye Wuqing calculated it carefully. No matter how unlucky he was, he would only lose four hundred gold beads.
Okay. After repeated calculations several times, yes, it was right, it was four hundred gold beads.
"If I bet, I'll bet on the Huo family." Ye Wuqing abandoned Zhao Jin very unfaithfully.
"Okay, okay, I'll beat the Zhao family then. Hey, you are so quick to strike." Sheng Yuanyuan said with a plaintive look on her face, as if she had suffered a huge loss. "Then let's high-five as an oath!" Sheng Yuanyuan stretched out her hand.
took the palm of his own hand.
The two high-fived each other as an oath, and Ye Wuqing suddenly felt like she was in trouble, as if she had missed something? At this time, the competition began.
