Chapter 196 Contest
Tang Mingzhen felt that he was being extremely rebellious when he heard them talking about this.
What is this for!
This is to force the emperor to give them land!
Oh, is it still possible to ask for things like this?
But he was a little looking forward to it. If Prince Xian were to make a fuss and throw a tantrum, would the emperor be able to tolerate it?
Anyway, he felt a little sympathy for His Majesty at this moment. How much virtue did he lack in his previous life to raise such a son?
However, he didn't do anything good in his life and had many bad behaviors. It was a blessing for him to have such a son.
Tang Mingzhen raised his hand and said, "Can you call me when you make a fuss?"
"Why am I calling you? Do you want to cry poor and throw a tantrum with me?" Liu Rumei asked curiously.
"No! I'm here to watch the fun!"
Tang Mingchen didn't answer him, but waved his sleeves violently, and the bowl in front of Tang Mingzhen flew away.
"Hey! You stingy guy, do you really need to do that?"
Tang Mingzhen was speechless. This guy still changes his attitude so quickly!
"By the way, you don't have to worry about the Xie family's fields and farms. They will be delivered to your door soon."
When Liu Rumei said this, Tang Mingchen stared at her expression with some curiosity.
At this moment, the girl had a wicked smile on her face, as if she had already planned everything.
"What did you do?" Tang Mingchen asked.
"I am such a kind and beautiful girl, what can I do? I just counted on my fingers and I know that we will definitely have someone to help us!"
Liu Rumei looked so confident that Tang Mingchen couldn't help but smile.
He suddenly felt that today's life was full of fun and real life.
……
Xie Linfeng returned to the camp to deal with some urgent official business.
He couldn't help but frown, he really didn't understand why things had developed to this point?
He clearly put all his energy into the military camp, so why does he have to spend most of his time at home now?
When he thought of what the doctor said, his heart couldn't help but sink.
Because my father had said before that the prince had agreed to marry my sister as his principal wife, but now my sister's face is ruined, can this still be counted?
The doctor said that the chances of recovery were slim. After all, even the people from the Valley of Divine Doctors had taken action. Who in the world could be more powerful than the Divine Doctor?
Whenever Xie Linfeng thought about this, he felt as if a huge stone was pressing on his chest and he wanted to vomit blood.
This not only harms the interests of the family, but more importantly, what will happen to my sister's second half of her life?
Alas, this matter seemed to be destined, and he didn't even know who to blame.
Are you really going to blame Liu Rumei?
It was obvious that they were the ones who schemed against the others first, but they were not as skilled as the others and were outmaneuvered by them. There was nothing to complain about.
Moreover, she could even let the young miracle doctor come over. This shows her extraordinary magnanimity. There is really nothing to resent.
On the contrary, he felt that his own sister's repeated actions were somewhat despicable, and he looked down on her.
Although she is his biological sister, he suddenly felt that she was so strange. When did she become like this?
Xie Linfeng was frowning and thinking hard when his deputy general suddenly came in and reported: "General, General Zhao just sent a message saying that you must not forget tomorrow's competition."
Xie Linfeng just remembered that there was a martial arts competition tomorrow, which was scheduled a few days ago.
This General Zhao has always had some discord with their Xie family. The other party requested a duel. Regardless of winning or losing, this time they can all put aside their grudges and laugh it off.
He had no choice but to agree to such a condition. If he did not agree, not only would he appear arrogant, but he was also afraid that people would discover the injury on his leg.
So the two sides agreed to compete in riding and archery, so that no one would notice that their legs were injured.
"Go and tell General Zhao that I will be waiting for you tomorrow!"
Upon hearing this, the subordinate turned around and left, feeling a little uneasy.
I don't know what's wrong with the general during this period. His mind is not in the barracks, and he seems to have some health problems.
When he heard about the Xie family, he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
The general's sister is really unreasonable. She always meddles in other people's affairs, causing the general to spend too much energy on the affairs of the inner house.
As a subordinate, he couldn't give too much advice, so he just hoped that the general could see the truth as soon as possible.
At this moment, they did not realize what it meant to move the whole body with a single move. They had given up Xie Linhan so decisively in the beginning, and now it was time to pay the price.
Never underestimate anyone, and don't ignore his desire for revenge.
On the second day, General Zhao came as agreed.
Although he is already in his forties, he is in good spirits and in good health. When he speaks, his voice is as loud as a bell and carries a sense of rusticity.
That’s right, General Zhao was a grassroots person and was promoted because of his great contributions. He represents the military generals who have worked their way up from the bottom.
Because of this, General Zhao and his men formed their own faction, and they were dissatisfied with all the old families.
But why are the Xie family targeted in particular?
It's just that because the Xie family had conflicts with them in the military, one side gained while the other lost.
Moreover, back then, Duke Anguo had suppressed them for the sake of military power!
In those days, Duke Anguo wanted military power and suppressed many of his subordinates. General Zhao was one of them.
But he didn't expect that General Zhao would be lucky enough to be on equal footing with him.
Duke Anguo relied on his seniority and was able to suppress others in the past few years. But now that Xie Linfeng has taken over, he has become a junior and naturally no longer has this advantage.
"My dear little general, we have to compete seriously today and show our best skills.
You are nearly twenty years younger than me. If you lose to a veteran like me, it would be shameful. Wouldn't it bring shame to your Xie family? Hahaha!"
General Zhao laughed as he spoke, and his smug look made people speechless.
Do you know that you are so much older than others? Do you know that you are a veteran?
Now that you know, how can you be so arrogant?
It hasn't even started yet, but I feel like I've already won. Am I being too happy too early?
"Please show some mercy, General. This is just a competition. Let's stop here."
"General Xie, don't blame me for not reminding you. I will not show mercy. If you underestimate me and lose your life, it will not be my fault.
Hearing what you said, I am even more worried. Let's sign a life and death agreement so that we can explain ourselves to His Majesty in the future."
Hearing these words, it was clear that he was going to fight to the death. The subordinates of Xie family began to worry. Is the general really okay?
"If the old general thinks so, then let's sign a life and death agreement."
As he said this, he actually asked someone to produce a life and death statement, and he also had a bold idea in his mind.
The Zhao family has always been at odds with them. If they could take advantage of this opportunity to seriously injure them, that would be a good thing.
Fortunately, my intelligence was measured in horseback archery. If it had been something else, I might not have won.
And at this moment, suddenly I saw a few people walking over.
Xie Linfeng looked closely and found that it was the incompetent son of the Zhao family.
