Xuan Tian Ye's mind exploded with a "weng" sound!
Gambling with their lives?
It turned out that this girl was waiting for him here!
But why was she so certain that she would win?
Xuan Tian Ye stood in place and did not nod or shake his head. He just looked at Feng Yu Heng with a belly full of guesses. He really wanted to see through her face and eyes to see what she was thinking.
Unfortunately, Feng Yu Heng was like the calm waters of a lake. There was not a single ripple. Nobody was able to see anything from her. But the expression on her face was resolute and could not be questioned. Gambling with their lives was gambling with their lives. She did not hesitate in the slightest.
Feng Jin Yuan, who was watching from the side, could no longer endure. Holding his injured arm, he took a couple steps forward and advised Feng Yu Heng: "Don't cause trouble. His Highness the third prince is a prince."
Feng Yu Heng raised an eyebrow: "So what if he's a prince? Can a prince not spar with someone? "
"Is this spar?" Feng Jin Yuan was nearly angered to death, "Who has ever heard of a life spar?"
"Didn't you hear about it today?" She raised her face into a smile, "Father, are you afraid that I will beat him to death?"
Feng Jin Yuan nearly fainted from anger, "I'm afraid that he will beat you to death! His Highness the third prince has been practicing martial arts since he was young. Regardless of whether it's fighting alone or leading soldiers into battle, he is an expert among experts. Aren't you just seeking death? " His expression sank, as he sternly said: "Heng Heng, you are currently shouldering the heavy responsibility of producing steel for Dashun. You absolutely must not have any mishaps."
Feng Jin Yuan's words caused Xuan Tian Ye to begin to ponder. He originally felt that Feng Yu Heng wanting to gamble with their lives meant that there was definitely some sort of scheme involved. This girl had many tricks up her sleeves, and she was proficient in using all sorts of medicines. He was afraid that this girl would use poison during the fight and cause him to lose his life. But now that he thought about it, it seemed that Feng Jin Yuan's words were reasonable. This girl wanting to beat him was truly impossible, but if he hurt her and Dashun's steel was not produced, the Emperor would place this debt on his head. That old man had never been on his side. When the time came, who knew what kind of unfair punishment he would give.
Thinking like this, Xuan Tian Ye made a decision. He definitely could not gamble with his life with Feng Yu Heng. He could not even compete in martial arts.
Thus he followed Feng Jin Yuan's words and said: "That's right! Sister-in-law now has a heavy responsibility on her shoulders, so it's really not good for her to play with swords and spears anymore. "
Feng Yu Heng laughed. "Firstly, I didn't wield a knife, and secondly, I didn't use a gun. Where did that come from, Third Brother?"
"I mean that I'm afraid of accidentally hurting you."
"Oh, then don't worry, Third Brother. You can't hurt me."
"Hmm?" Xuan Tian Ye frowned, "When it comes to fighting, it's hard to avoid mistakes. Younger sister's words cannot be spoken too confidently."
"Hmph." Feng Yu Heng sneered, "Third Brother is too confident in your own abilities. Just based on your abilities, you want to hurt me?"
The anger in Xuan Tian Ye's heart was ignited a little. Although he clearly knew that Feng Yu Heng was deliberately infuriating him to achieve her goal of competing in martial arts, these words still caused him to feel extremely uncomfortable. He was not a magnanimous person, and he did not have the magnanimity to let go of things. Feng Yu Heng's words truly caused him to choke with anger.
But the girl did not give up. Her small mouth opened and closed, as she continued to say: "Father, you too. If you're afraid that his Highness the third prince will be hurt, just say it directly. Is there a need to beat around the bush? Daughter truly believed that father was worried that I would be beaten to death. Who knew that in the end, you were worried about his Highness the third prince. Hah, you really are making daughter sad. Forget it, since father is so certain that his Highness the third prince will lose, daughter will not fight. It can be considered giving father some face. "
While she spoke, she helplessly shook her head. She then took a couple steps back and cupped her hands to Xuan Tian Ye: "Father has made a request. As a daughter, Heng should not disobey him. Third brother's life is much more valuable than Heng's. Getting hurt is indeed not good. Let's just forget about this competition." After saying this, she turned around and left.
Xuan Tian Ye became furious: "Stop right there!"
His shout caused Feng Yu Heng to laugh and caused Feng Jin Yuan to cry. He knew that something big would happen today.
He could not help but turn his gaze to Kang Yi; however, he saw Kang Yi helplessly shake her head, expressing that there was nothing she could do.
At this time, Xuan Tian Ye said: "Since words have already been spoken, how could they be taken back?"
Feng Yu Heng was puzzled and asked him: "Isn't third brother greedy for life?"
You're the greedy one!
Xuan Tian Ye hated that he could not cut off this girl's tongue!
"Younger sister is in a rare mood. How could I not accompany you? Servant, "He loudly shouted," Go fetch I's sword! "
"Wait!" Feng Yu Heng suddenly raised her voice.
Xuan Tian Ye was startled, "Younger sister is going back on your word?"
She shook her head, "Something as disgusting as going back on my word is beneath me."
Xuan Tian Ye wanted to cut off her tongue once more. Had he not just gone back on his word? This girl was saying that he was disgusting in a roundabout way.
"Then younger sister's meaning is …"
Feng Yu Heng said: "I came in a hurry and did not bring a brush and ink. Would third brother please have the palace prepare a brush and ink! Since this is a life and death battle, we need to sign a life and death contract. Otherwise, if I beat third brother to death later on, the Xiang Palace's people will refuse to acknowledge the debt and continue to tangle with me. That would not be good. "
Xuan Tian Ye felt a raging fire in his chest, as he immediately gave the order: "Prepare a brush and ink!" He wanted to immediately sign a life and death contract. Once the life and death contract was signed, if this girl did not die by his sword today, his surname would not be Xuan!
What producing steel, what being old ninth's wife, at this moment, all of that had been thrown to the back of his mind. He had been angered by Feng Yu Heng. He just wanted to stab this girl in front of him with his sword!
Very quickly, the palace's servants brought out the sword and brought out a table. The four treasures of the study were placed on top of it. Even Princess Xiang came out.
Feng Yu Heng smiled and greeted Princess Xiang: "Third sister-in-law!"
Princess Xiang smiled and replied: "Younger sister, long time no see. Have you been well?"
"I've been well." Feng Yu Heng and Princess Xiang were very friendly, "Has third sister-in-law's health been well?"
Princess Xiang nodded, "I invited a doctor from Hundred Herb Hall to come to the palace every three days. I've been well." While saying this, she looked at Xuan Tian Ye, "Younger sister has come. Why has my lord not invited her into the palace to sit?"
Xuan Tian Ye angrily snorted and said: "Younger sister came to compete with I."
"Oh?" Princess Xiang's eyes lit up, "My lord has been practicing martial arts since childhood. Who doesn't know that Prince Xiang is very strong? But I heard that county princess Ji An is also a hero among women. She is not inferior to men. I really don't know who will win and who will lose in this competition between my lord and younger sister. "
Kang Yi listened to Princess Xiang's words and began to ponder. There had already been reports that the official princess of the third prince's palace was not of the same mind as the third prince. In fact, she had been ill for many years, and there were rumors that it was the third prince who had given her medicine. That was why her illness did not get better. Now, it seemed that this couple really did not match in appearance. What sort of wife would speak of her husband like this? Who knows who will win and who will lose. Even if you know that Prince Xiang will lose, you should at least express your position, right?
But Princess Xiang had not finished speaking, as she said to Feng Yu Heng: "Younger sister, you absolutely must be merciful!"
Xuan Tian Ye was on the verge of going crazy, as he angrily asked the advisor who was writing the life and death agreement: "Is it done?"
The advisor nodded, "It's done." He then unfolded the life and death agreement that had just been written and loudly said: "Today, county princess Ji An and Prince Xiang will compete in martial arts. Their lives will be on the line. Regardless of life and death, neither side will pursue this matter!" After he finished reading, he raised another piece of paper that had the same contents written on it, "There are two copies of the life and death agreement. After the two of you have signed, you can each keep one copy."
Xuan Tian Ye nodded, "Good!" He then stepped forward and vigorously wrote down his own name.
Feng Yu Heng was not an exception, as she quickly stepped forward and also signed her own name. She then thought a little and dipped her index finger in ink, leaving a thumbprint next to her own name.
Xuan Tian Ye happily did the same, thus the life and death agreement was considered complete.
The two each took a copy and placed it in their pockets. Only then did Feng Yu Heng raise the corners of her lips and step back. She retreated until she was in front of the door and raised the whip in her hand, "Third brother, Heng Zheng will be waiting for you."
Xuan Tian Ye also walked down the steps and stood across from her. The two were roughly ten paces apart. The people of the Feng family and the Xiang Palace all spread out on their own accord and did their best to find a safer spot. Everyone was worried that the two would fight and accidentally cut themselves down.
Feng Jin Yuan felt waves of panic. For some reason, the more he looked at Feng Yu Heng's resolute gaze, the more he felt that Xuan Tian Ye would lose. He had already begun to calculate. If Xuan Ye lost, would that be a good thing or a bad thing for him? Would it be a good thing or a bad thing?
Kang Yi could see the conflict in his eyes and quietly whispered into his ear: "The Feng family has already chosen the third prince. Even if the situation changes, does husband feel that the other masters will be of the same mind as you? When that time comes, not to mention discussing conditions, I fear that even if you try your best to curry favor with them, they will not like you. "
Feng Jin Yuan was startled. That's right, how could a master that changed sides along the way be of the same mind as him. Now, he was helping Prince Xiang. At the very least, Prince Xiang had promised him that regardless of whether or not it was Chen Yu, he would marry one of the Feng family's daughters. Even if it was not the daughter of the first wife and could not become the empress, she would at least have the status of imperial gui imperial concubine. What about the other masters? Could he fight for this sort of condition?
"Does husband feel that his Highness will lose?" Kang Yi's voice came over once more, filled with doubt.
Feng Jin Yuan very obediently nodded.
"Does Heng Zheng have that much ability?" She was a little skeptical, "You are her father. You should at least understand a bit, right?"
How could Feng Jin Yuan understand. He could only tell Kang Yi: "Heng Zheng's abilities were all learned from a Persian eccentric over the past three years in the Northwest. I do not know anything about it."
"Persian eccentric?" Kang Yi was a little puzzled, "Has husband ever met that Persian eccentric?"
Feng Jin Yuan shook his head, "I have not. She said that before she could return to the capital, that eccentric had already left. Speaking of, during the three years that they were in the Northwest, our Feng family indeed neglected to take care of them. That's why there are many things that are unclear. This child hates us for this reason. "
Kang Yi was even more puzzled. Persia was nothing more than a legendary country. Whether or not it truly existed was something that could not be said for certain.
According to the legends, Persia was to the West of Dashun. It was very far from Dashun and was separated by the Tu Lan grassland. That grassland had always been known as a forbidden area of death. Nobody had ever been able to pass through it and reach the other side. How exactly did that Persian person come here?
Just as she was thinking, Feng Yu Heng and Xuan Tian Ye had already begun fighting. Hearing Xuan Tian Ye say the word "please," Feng Yu Heng's whip immediately lashed out. With a "pa" sound, this competition officially began!
