Coincidentally Cai Daren and Cai Lin were present at the tribute banquet, and Cai Lin's face immediately turned red. Now that Cai Lin was two years older, he had matured a lot as compared to the domineering one. That little grudge with Shen Miao had long been thrown to the back of one's mind with time, and because he was no longer infatuated with Shen Yue, it could be said that the grudge was resolved with a smile, but one did not expect that the old matter would be brought up in front of so many people, making him extremely embarrassed.
It was not only Cai Lin who was thinking about the old matter. In the corner of the tribute banquet, the Marquis of Lin An, Xie Ding and his two sons were sitting. The current Marquis of Lin An was getting older, and no longer had the high and vigorous spirit of the past. Even in such an occasion, he only wanted to find a quiet corner. When the matter of the academy examinations was suddenly mentioned, he remembered that Xie Jing Xing was also there, and unexpectedly went up to the stage and defeated Xie Chang Wu and Xie Chang Chao. At that time when he returned to the residence, he angrily reprimanded Xie Jing Xing, but in his heart, he was proud of Xie Jing Xing.
Thinking of the old matters, it was even more difficult to bear. Xie Ding revealed a dejected expression, but it was seen by Xie Chang Wu and Xie Chang Chao, who were beside him, and a trace of darkness flashed in their eyes.
Princess Ming An continued to speak, "Today BenGong also have the interest to compete with Young Lady Shen. Why not compete in archery? Just treat it as a game. "
These words were said abruptly and strangely. Emperor Wen Hui was the first to laugh, "Young Lady Shen is a delicate Young Lady, how could she know such a thing like archery?"
"Your Majesty does not know." Princess Ming An smiled, "At that time Young Lady Shen's grace was something that even the Great Qin had heard of. It is said that a tiger father does not have a dog daughter. General Shen is so valiant, so Young Lady Shen must be an extraordinary female. Moreover Young Lady Shen is a delicate female, so is BenGong not a female? Or is it that Your Majesty feels that my Great Qin is not worthy to be on par with the Ming Qi? "
Princess Ming An looked delicate and beautiful, but her words were very vicious. In one sentence, she brought out the entire Ming Qi. If one did not compete, it meant that the Ming Qi did not look at the Great Qin. At this time, how could Emperor Wen Hui let the Great Qin and the Ming Qi have a rift? He immediately looked at Shen Miao and said in a seemingly gentle manner, "What does Young Lady Shen think?"
Shen Xin clenched his fists as he really wanted to help Shen Miao reject this rude request. But if one were to reject it, it would only give Princess Ming An more justifiable leverage.
It was Shen Miao who glanced at Princess Ming An and lowered her head, "This official's daughter dare not disobey the Princess' instructions."
'Did not dare to disobey', at the end it was still expressing one's unwillingness, as if Princess Ming An was bullying others.
Princess Ming An also heard the meaning in Shen Miao's words and her face sank. She then thought of something and giggled. She said, "I heard that during the academy examinations, Young Lady Shen and that opponent used the method of betting their lives to compete. Today we will also use the method of betting our lives to compete, alright?"
"No!" Shen Xin did not wait for Shen Miao to finish and flatly refused. His face was cold and he did not care about Emperor Wen Hui's expression as he looked at Princess Ming An and said word by word, "Since Your Princess Highness said it is a game, then just treat it as a game, why must one implicate one's life. Moreover, the tribute banquet is a joyous occasion, it is better not to see swords and sabers at the banquet. "
When Luo Xue Yan saw Shen Xin speaking, she could not help but grip the teacup in front of her tightly. At that time they did not know about the matter of Shen Miao betting her life with Cai Lin during the academy examinations, and when they returned to the capital to know about it, their hearts palpitated endlessly. If they were present, they would definitely not let Shen Miao use her life as a gambling stake. Now that this Princess Ming An from the Qin country obviously had ill intentions, how would she let Shen Miao take the risk.
Who knew that when Shen Xin said this, HuangFu Hao unexpectedly opened his mouth and smiled, "Even so, one must treat the game seriously, and that would show the seriousness of the Great Qin towards the Ming Qi. General Shen, it is only to let Young Lady Shen and my Younger Sister play a game. Could it be that General Shen is afraid? Or is it that the Ming Qi cannot afford to lose? " His words were filled with thorns as he looked at Emperor Wen Hui, "If the Ming Qi is afraid of losing face, then there is no harm in dampening Ming An's mood."
