After a full meal, Yuchi Jingde was already unable to hold on anymore from Li Yu's drinking. He fell onto the table with a plop and did not forget to say something.
"Young, young hero, you have a good alcohol tolerance. I admit defeat…"
"Hehe, you still want to brag about being Yuchi Jingde? If it was true, it probably didn't live up to its name.”
Li Yu smiled and began to pack his luggage. Then, he carried it on his back and went to the counter of the inn.
"That's my companion. He's already asleep. Please give him a room to rest and take good care of him.”
As he spoke, Li Yu took out a silver ingot and placed it on the table. The waiter immediately beamed with joy and nodded.
"Alright, alright, don't worry!”
Li Yu immediately walked out of the restaurant. He had planned to leave as soon as he arrived in Chang 'an.
After all, he had only met Official Li by chance. At most, he had saved his life.
However, Li Yu did not like to trouble others with kindness, especially when Aunt Li paid close attention to him.
This made him uncomfortable. He had never felt this way since he was young, and he didn't know how to face it.
"Let's find a place to stay first and talk about it later.”
Li Yu thought for a moment before walking into the city.
……
The west of the city was close to the outside of the city. This was the territory of the Duke of Wei's Public House.
Today, this place was especially lively. It could even be said to be extremely sensational. Countless disciples of the High Duke had arrived.
The reason was simple.
The eldest daughter of Duke Wei's Public House, Li Qing Yin, was going to compete for a spouse today!
It was rumored that the Duke of Wei would be the commander-in-chief of the three armies in this expedition against the Turks, and Li Jing wanted to marry off his daughter before the expedition.
However, her daughter did not like red clothes and loved armed weapons since she was young. She was a tiger daughter of the military and grew up in the military camp. She was heroic and brave.
The Red Horsetail Girl was once a world-famous beauty. Her daughter was naturally beautiful and dignified. Her beauty was the best in Chang 'an!
Li Qing Yin was good-looking, but she loved martial arts. She even said that her Langjun must surpass her in martial arts in this life.
Otherwise, he would never marry!
This gave Li Jing a headache.
Li Qing Yin was the best archer in Chang 'an City because of her horse riding skills. No young man was a match for her.
If that was the case, wouldn't his daughter be unable to get married in this lifetime?
Li Jing wanted to force his daughter to get married, but Li Qing Yin was also extremely unyielding. In the end, both sides compromised.
Joust For A Spouse!
Throwing embroidered balls to the crowd and choosing a good person to go on stage.
Within fifty steps, as long as six out of ten arrows hit the bullseye, he would be the son-in-law of the Duke of Wei!
"Hahaha…Duke Wei, Wen Mo is here today. He has admired your daughter for a long time!”
"Hou Wenmo has the nerve to come over with his abilities? Chu Mo's archery skills were unparalleled, and ten arrows were simply a piece of cake!”
"Cheng Chumo? Don't be ridiculous. If you want to talk about talents in Chang 'an, you have to look at Luo Tong of the Luo Family. Don't you think so, Duke Wei?”
On the grandstand, a few generals gathered and said,
Li Qing Yin was a female general, and now that she was in charge of the female army, she would be the next Princess Ping Yang!
Whoever married Li Qing Yin would undoubtedly have a soaring status in the court. Naturally, they would all yearn for this marriage!
"It is my honor to have everyone support me.”
Li Jing cupped his hands and said,
"But martial arts is only one aspect. It mainly depends on fate. The most important thing is to get the embroidered ball.”
"Yes, Duke Wei is right. Chumo will definitely be able to snatch the embroidered ball!”
Cheng Yaojin excitedly said, and Hou Junji sneered. Fang Xuanling, who was watching the show, looked down and said,
"It's here. The Joust For A Spouse is about to begin!”
"Whoosh!"
"Miss Qin Yin is out. She's so beautiful and heroic!”
"As expected of the tiger daughter of the family of generals. Whoever marries her will be blessed for three lifetimes!”
There was an uproar below the stage as everyone looked at the stage.
A woman in armor, a long robe, and a longbow rode out on a horse. Her hair was tied into a ponytail and swayed in the wind.
The armor didn't hide her figure at all. Instead, she looked exquisite and graceful, and her slender waist could be held.
A pair of strong and long legs suddenly clamped the horse's belly and pulled the reins.
Eeeee!
The horse stopped and groaned.
Li Qing Yin had an oval-shaped face, a tall nose, and a small mouth. She was full of heroic spirit, and her phoenix eyes swept across the crowd.
"Today, whoever can get the red embroidered ball within ten rings will be able to go on stage to display their archery skills.”
"As long as six out of ten arrows can defeat Li Qing Yin within twenty breaths, I'm willing to marry you!”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone below was stunned. Li Jing was even more furious. Cheng Yaojin and the others were stunned.
"Why is there an additional rule? Isn't it enough to just shoot arrows?"
" That's right, it's not good to fight and kill. Duke Wei, why did you rebel…"
Hou Junji stopped mid-sentence when he saw Li Jing's grim expression and murderous intent.
"Good! Throw the embroidered ball, I, Cheng Chumo, want to marry you!”
The hot-blooded youths below didn't think much of it, especially Cheng Chumo who jumped out and pointed at Li Qing Yin as he laughed.
"I heard that Miss Qing Yin's martial arts are outstanding. Luo Tong doesn't believe it, but she will definitely win within twenty breaths!”
A white-robed general also stood out, and the surroundings were filled with discussions.
"Luo Tong also came? This kid is not simple. He rarely makes a move, but I heard that he has a high prestige in the army!”
"Tsk tsk, there's going to be a good show. This is also a competition between the sons of the various generals.”
Many onlookers were discussing among themselves. Li Qing Yin snorted lightly and threw the red embroidered ball into the crowd.
"One!"
"Hahaha, it would be impolite to reject Miss Qin Yin!”
A loud laugh rang out, and Hou Wenmo immediately leaped into the air to catch the embroidered ball. Cheng Chumo immediately became anxious.
"Don't be so arrogant. The embroidered ball is mine!”
Phew...
Cheng Chumo flew into the air and knocked Hou Wenmo away. However, Luo Tong, who was beside him, caught the ball.
"Hahaha, Li Qing Yin, I've snatched the embroidered ball!”
"Within ten rings, it's only three!”
Li Qing Yin shouted. Immediately, everyone below reacted and charged towards Luo Tong.
"Four!"
"Oh…Cheng Chumo, you're cheating!"
Luo Tong cried out in pain after being tricked. Immediately, he threw out the red embroidered ball. Qin Huaiyu, who was beside him, quickly rushed over.
"Six, it's almost mine!”
"Get lost, don't snatch the embroidered ball!"
"F * ck, who kicked my butt, step out!”
"My face, who hit my face!"
Suddenly, more and more people rushed out and mixed together. Peng, peng, punches and kicks, the scene was in chaos.
"Nine!"
Li Qing Yin's voice rang out, and the scholars below immediately came back to their senses. They looked at the red embroidered balls above them and leaped up together.
"Bang!"
Luo Tong and Cheng Chumo collided, while Hou Wenmo was sent flying by Qin Huaiyu's kick.
Yuchi Baolin rushed forward and wanted to snatch it, but he accidentally slapped the red embroidered ball away and flew into the distance.
"Ten! Time's up!"
Everyone was stunned by Li Qing Yin's words.
Luo Tong fell to the ground and covered his forehead as he hurriedly got up, wanting to see which bastard had snatched the embroidered ball.
"Hmm?"
A surprised voice sounded. Li Yuren was walking by the roadside. The ball came from the sky. He held the embroidered ball and looked at everyone present.
"What are you guys doing?"
"Who…who is this? I actually snatched it!"
Cheng Chumo covered his butt and stood up, his eyes almost popping out. Li Yu heard this and said,
"You want this thing? I don't want it. I'll give it back to you."
As he spoke, Li Yu tossed the embroidered ball back and turned to leave.
" Stop, don't leave!!!"
