Moreover, by agreeing to have Wu Zhi take care of this competition, the time could be extended by at least half a month.
So, he nodded slightly: "Okay, then let's ask the official to set a time."
Zhao Ji laughed: "In that case, let's set it on today next month!"
Cai Ji said loudly: "Wu Zhi, today next month next year will be your memorial day!"
The corners of Wu Zhi's mouth turned up slightly, and he said contemptuously in his heart: "Idiot, I wish I could have an extra half month. I really have to thank you for eight generations of ancestors!"
As a result, the news spread throughout Tokyo in an instant.
For the people of Tokyo, not only could they see the upcoming match between the two countries, but also the emperor's two most favored ministers compete, which was naturally a very happy thing.
But when the news reached Wu Zhi's house, Li Ping'er, who was cooking in the kitchen, immediately put the dishes and chopsticks on the counter angrily.
"Bang."
Li Ping'er hurriedly walked to Pan Jinlian and said to Pan Jinlian: "Sister, what should I do?"
Pan Jinlian, on the other hand, looked indifferent. She focused all his attention on the plate of Dongpo meat in front of her.
"What to do?"
Li Ping'er hurriedly grabbed Pan Jinlian.
"Oh, my dear eldest sister! At this time, please don't blindly blind me anymore."
"Didn't you hear what the fat girl said just now? Now it has been spread throughout Tokyo. The emperor has decreed that the princess should be betrothed to our officials!"
"The official in our family will be the consort in the future! If the official becomes the consort, what should we do?"
"This princess is the most difficult woman in the world. We are still wives. Once the official marries the princess, we will just be concubines!"
Li Ping'er was pitiful, as if she had already seen her upcoming tragic life.
"Being a concubine doesn't mean you can be beaten and killed by others. If you don't pay attention, you may be fed poison and fill the well."
Before Pan Jinlian could answer, Wu Yuemei, who was also helping with the cooking, said angrily.
"You, this is a typical unfounded worry! The fat girl is saying that we officials are going to compete with that man named Cai Chi. How can you be sure that we officials will win!"
"Besides, even if the official wins, the official may not really marry the princess to the official."
Among the four women, only Li Ping'er was the most anxious. Even Yan Xijiao, who came in last, patted her hand lightly with flour and smiled at Li Ping'er.
"Third sister, don't worry. To put it another way, even if our official really marries the princess, he will not care about one thing and not the other."
"Who are we officials? There will never be anyone in this world who loves us as much as he does."
Yan Xijiao was saved by Wu Zhi twice. She had already given her body, heart, and soul to Wu Zhi.
In this life, she will never be able to leave Wu Zhi.
Li Ping'er stretched out her jade-like fingers and tapped Yan Xijiao's forehead.
"You, you are obsessed with our officials!"
"I'm telling you, you can never guess a man's thoughts. Besides, that's a princess!"
"You have never seen the princess before. That little girl is very beautiful. Although she is young, in a few years, she will become a queen of the country!"
When Li Ping'er mentioned Zhao Fuxian, not only did Li Ping'er feel sour in her mouth, but she was also envious and jealous in her heart.
"And he has a noble status. To put it nicely, the princess is getting married, but to put it worst, our officials are going to live in the princess's mansion!"
"When we arrive at the princess's mansion, the servants and guards are all members of the royal family. Do you think the four of us will still have to rely on others for their support?"
