"Do you really think I'm afraid of you?”Shen Yuexi pulled his hand back abruptly. Ignoring the pain from the wound on his hand, he turned around and left.
When she said that she would cancel the engagement, it was just to take advantage of the situation at that time to make it easier for her to move around in the future. He didn't expect Huangfu Xiu to be not only brainless but also a scoundrel. She still had things to do and did not have time to waste with him.
Huangfu Xiu's eyes turned cold as he looked at his hand that had suddenly missed its target. No one had dared to disobey him since he was young. Other than his mother, no one had dared to abandon him! This ugly girl was too arrogant!
"As long as you win first place in the Three Kingdom Competition, I will cancel the engagement.”Huangfu Xiu suddenly shouted loudly. He had been counting his chickens before they hatched. Shen Yuexi was competitive and would not give in. Today, he was going to provoke her!
"The Three Kingdoms Competition! "Isn't that the competition for newcomers under the age of twenty-two held by the three countries?" Everyone was excited.
Zhao, Ning, and Wei were neighbors and lived in peace. Every three years, there would be a rookie competition. First, each country would select five contestants to participate in the host country, so it was called the Three Kingdoms Competition.
Although it was called a grand competition, the three countries had always been peaceful. The only place where they could compete was this grand competition. To put it bluntly, the grand competition was also a competition between the juniors of each country to pry into the future strength of each country.
Therefore, the three countries attached great importance to it. Before the competition, there was a banquet, an audience with the king, and a series of very grand ceremonies.
"This time, it seems that Wei Country is the organizer.”
" That's right. Before the competition, we can even meet the Emperor of Wei and enjoy VIP treatment. If we can win, wow, the generous prizes…" Just thinking about it made the mercenaries drool.
" What a pity. If I were younger, I might have been able to compete…"
Everyone spoke enthusiastically. This was a great honor. If they could obtain a ranking, there was no need to talk about gold and silver. They could even choose one of the magic weapons selected by the various countries!
After some calculations, tomorrow was the day of the domestic selection!
"How about it? Do you dare to participate in the competition?”Huangfu Xiu looked at Shen Yuexi provocatively.
"I dare to agree, but do you dare to write a written pledge in front of your Imperial Father?”Shen Yuexi's livid expression turned slightly better. He looked at Huangfu Xiu provocatively as well.
Hmph, he was trying to goad them into action. Let's see who can win. However, as long as he got a ranking, he would be able to meet the King of Wei. Wasn't this a good opportunity to enter the palace?
"What written pledge?" Huangfu Xiu was delighted to see her agree.
"I don't trust your words. You have to write a written agreement in front of your father!”Shen Yuexi looked at him coldly.
"You ugly girl, how dare you not believe what I say!”Huangfu Xiu immediately roared. Who in Ning Country would dare to speak to him like this?
" Awooo!" A series of beast cries suddenly rang out, and the ground actually trembled slightly.
"Not good, we can't stay here for long. Let's go!”Wu Guang's expression was serious. Everyone was no longer in the mood to watch the show. They helped each other and rushed out. They did not dare to stop. They were afraid that if anything went wrong, they would die without a complete corpse and implicate their families.
Everyone used all their strength and finally rushed out of the Magical Beast Forest on the second day.
" Crown Prince, Crown Prince…" Countless voices rang out. Huangfu Xiu looked up and was surrounded by a group of soldiers.
Huangfu Xiu had said that he would go in for three to five days, but he had stayed in the forest for seven days. If he didn't come out soon, the soldiers would rush in.
"It's okay. You, come with me!" Huangfu Xiu pushed away Xuanyuan Wushuang, who had been supporting him with encouragement, and reached out his finger to hook Shen Yuexi, who was talking to Wu Yu.
Shen Yuexi raised his head and smiled coldly." You've agreed to sign a written pledge in front of your father?"”
Although she was eager to go to the palace to participate in the competition, the more she wanted to do so, the more she had to show that she was dispensable, so as not to be threatened by this brainless prince.
" You…" Huangfu Xiu pointed at Shen Yuexi with a livid expression."Get your ranking first."
"Sign the agreement first, or else there's no need to talk!" Shen Yuexi said coldly. Huangfu Xiu was obviously trying to play the same trick. Did he really think that he was a three-year-old child?
"Heh, so be it. Do you really think this prince is afraid of you?”Seeing that Shen Yuexi did not buy it, Huangfu Xiu's anger surged. Ignoring the injuries on his body, he straightened his neck and said,"" Let's go, we'll go now!"
"If you say now, then now. Why should this lady listen to you? I'm injured, I want to rest!" Shen Yuexi sat on the ground. Hmph, trying to goad a lady like me is child's play.
"Just because this prince is the crown prince of Ning Country, men, carry her into the palace!”Huangfu Xiu waved his hand. Humph! After leaving the Magical Beast Forest, besides his father, he was the most powerful. Who would dare to disobey him?
Before Shen Yuexi could say anything, a group of soldiers had already swarmed up like a swarm of bees. Without a word, they carried her up and headed straight for the palace.
Everyone's mouth was wide open in shock. After being thrown aside, Xuanyuan Wushuang, who was wrapped in bandages, immediately came up to them pitifully.
" Your Highness, my sister has never been restrained since she was young. I'm afraid she won't be used to entering the palace like this. Why don't I..." Huangfu Xiu sneered before he could finish his sentence.
"Hmph, I'm not used to it! I think she might be very patient in the throne room.”After saying that, he gave Wu Guang a few instructions and left.
Xuanyuan Wushuang's unfinished words were stuck in her throat, and she couldn't help but look vicious. Shen Yuexi, you're taking a step back in order to advance. You keep saying that you want to reject the marriage, but you're in such a hurry to enter the palace. I'm afraid that you can't wait to get married to the Crown Prince tomorrow!
Hmph, since you want to participate in the competition, just wait and see. I'll let you live to participate, but you won't be able to get off the stage!
In the brightly lit royal study, Huangfu Tian leaned back on the dragon throne and looked at the two people who were staring at each other.""Do you really want to sign this agreement?"
Logically speaking, which woman wouldn't fight for the position of Crown Princess? This ugly girl rejected him again and again. Interesting.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Shen Yuexi answered quickly.
Huangfu Tian turned around and saw his son's eyes burning with rage. He looked like he wanted to eat her alive.
"Of course I have to sign it, I have to sign it. Hmph, hmph, why does Imperial Father need to confirm with her? It's hard to say if she can enter the fifth rank.”Huangfu Xiu was like a fox that couldn't eat grapes. After sneering, he signed his name.
Shen Yuexi was overjoyed. This brainless prince had indeed been burned by the fire poison for too long. He was very irritable and would fly into a rage out of humiliation after saying a few words.
Of course, she would not show it. He only slowly picked up the pen and signed his name.
"Alright, this agreement is established. As long as Young Lady Shen wins the championship in the Three Kingdoms Meeting, you will have nothing to do with each other.”
"Yes."
"Yes."
The two of them answered at the same time. Huangfu Xiu glared at Shen Yuexi after he finished speaking. Shen Yuexi looked as if he had not seen anything, which made Huangfu Xiu furious.
"Alright, Xiu 'er, you're tired from this trip.”Huangfu Tian looked at him kindly.
Huangfu Xiu frowned. Huangfu Tian was obviously chasing him away. He wanted to drag Shen Yuexi along with him, but he knew that Huangfu Tian was a man of his word. He flung his hand away, glanced at Shen Yuexi, and left angrily.
Shen Yuexi looked at Huangfu Tian calmly as he watched him leave. He did not seem to have any intention of leaving.
"Shen Young Lady, is there anything else?" Huangfu Tian looked at her kindly.
"Send the Crown Prince away in public. Thinking about it. It's His Majesty who's in trouble, right?" Shen Yuexi curled his lips and looked at Huangfu Tian slyly.
Huangfu Tian's expression changed when he heard that. He slammed the table and said,""How dare you, Shen Yuexi!”Immediately, an overwhelming pressure pressed down on Shen Yuexi.
The green pressure forced Shen Yuexi to take two steps back, but she quickly steadied herself. She narrowed her clear eyes and looked calmly at Huangfu Tian, who was furious."May I know what crime Shen Yuexi has committed?"
"You framed Minister Xuanyuan Mingyuan in the Throne Room and publicly rejected the marriage, damaging the reputation of the royal family. Your actions are immoral and your crimes should be punished. What do you have to say!”Huangfu Xiu's expression was dignified, and his aura was bursting.
"I have nothing to say." Shen Yuexi looked at Huangfu Tian's overwhelming aura.
"Aren't you afraid that I'll sentence you to death?" Huangfu Tian's eyes were deep.
"If Your Majesty really wanted to punish me, why would you give me the chance to sign the contract?" Shen Yuexi smiled faintly.”
"Haha, Old Cheng's temper is quite similar to your father's.”Huangfu Tian suddenly burst into laughter. His aggressive aura disappeared instantly.
"Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty." Shen Yuexi seemed to have expected this and smiled brightly.
"Tell me, abnormal is evil. If you want to reject the marriage, you won't come back to sign any contract. Your ultimate goal is probably Wei.
Huangfu Tian looked at Shen Yuexi meaningfully.
This girl was so young, but she had put on such a good show. She could fool others, but not him. The calmer she was, the more she wanted to hide something.
"Your Majesty, you have good eyesight. I am indeed going to Wei.”Shen Yuexi said frankly. He was still clear about his own capabilities. It was still possible to deceive Huangfu Xiu just now, but the Emperor was an old fox. It was better to be more practical.
"Why are you going to Wei?"
" Your Majesty should know how my parents died." Shen Yuexi looked at Huangfu Tian with a stern gaze. There are clues to the murderer there."
Her clear eyes flashed with a cold light, like a little lion that was about to pounce and bite at any moment. She was proud and aloof, but there was also endless sadness in her eyes. Anyone who saw her would be moved.
"Sigh, I know about your parents.”Huangfu Tian sighed and said in a heavy tone,""Before your parents were killed, they left something with me.”
"What?!" Shen Yuexi was shocked. Her parents had died so suddenly, so why would Huangfu Tian have something with him?
"The day before they were killed, your father asked me to deposit something. He said that he would give it to you when the time was right.”Huangfu Tian was very satisfied with Shen Yuexi's surprised expression. This ugly girl had never been like a child from the start. Now, she finally looked like a child.
"What is it?" Shen Yuexi was anxious.
Huangfu Tian smiled when he saw how anxious she was.""There's no hurry. I'll give it to you if you help me do something.”
"When my parents gave you the item, they didn't say that there were any conditions, right?”Shen Yuexi's eyes darkened.
"Plans can't keep up with changes. Now that the item is in my hands, it's up to you whether you want it or not.”Huangfu Xiu looked at her leisurely with his hands behind his back.
Shen Yuexi was speechless. She finally knew who Huangfu Xiu had learned to be a rascal from. Like father, like son.
"Why should I believe you!"
"You are not joking." Huangfu Tian's expression suddenly turned serious as he looked at Shen Yuexi.
Shen Yuexi frowned slightly and struggled in his heart for a long time.""You have to let me see it first!"
"Get into the top five in the country first.”Huangfu smiled like a fox. Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:111420184: 21PM #Cancel Review All: wdd201302 Time:111420185: 55PM #
