Chapter 125: Compelled to Compete (Part 2)

The tribute banquet was filled withwith one another, suddenlyit as if it was a peaceful scene It was only at the noble guests' area that EFu Hao, as so fear When this was seen by others, naturally they ell aware of it

A Qi, the Ming Qi was the weakest, followed by the Qin country and the Great Liang was the strongest That E Le's actions were always valiant, whichQi to feel fear and, so they would be very respectful to this Prince Rui of the Great Liang As for HuangFu Hao, when he was speaking to Prince Rui, there were

Most of the feuests' eyes were stuck on this Prince Rui, each and every action and hted their eyes There were no shortage of outstandingQi, just like Fu Xiu Yi, but in front of this Prince Rui, all of the, and instead seemed shoddy

Even though Luo Tan loved beautiful people but she had the teust of wind, so she was soon attracted by the delicate and delicious food, happily trying this and that

Because the tribute feast does not distinguished between ether Luo Ling also sat near Shen Miao's and when he saw that Shen Miao was not eating, he placed a snowflake cake onto Shen Miao's plate and war, else one will not have energy to return”

Shen Qiu originally wanted to give Shen Miao a piece, but Luo Ling had pre-empted his attempt, and he did not knohere to put the snowflake cake in this chopsticks His boas already full, and ht for a , as sitting nearest to Shen Miao

Feng An Ning was overwhelmed by the favour as she accepted it and said her thanks But she did not eat it and was looking at the snowflake cake in a daze

But just at thisheard that the Formidable Great General, General Shen, has returned to the capital a few days before The na always hear about, but do not know if one have the honour to see?”

When the remarks were spoken, the lively banquet suddenly quietened down

The Crown Prince of the Qin country wanted to see Shen Xin? What was theof it?

Shen Xin and the Crown Prince of the Qin were practically not related at all, but now one of them was the Great General that E capital, and the other was the Qin country's Crown Prince, both had very sensitive identities Everyone could not help but look at Emperor Wen Hui's facial expression

Eed, as if this was just a very small request and he looked at Shen Xin, “Beloved Official Shen”

Shen Xin quickly got up and bowed to HuangFu Hao before saying, “This General greets Your Highness the Crown Prince”

HuangFu Hao s heard that General Shen is brave and fierce without rival, that even in the border one could also transform a scattered army to shape When the Shen family's ar” He then gave a long sigh, “If my Great Qin could have such a military talent, one need not worry for a hundred of years”

Emperor Wen Hui's pupils shrank unnoticed as the azes became extremely complex as they looked at Shen Xin

To say that Shen Xin was able to connect the scattered ar Shen Xin's extraordinary ability, but obscurely es the flourishi+ng trees in the forest and that had been the logic since ancient tiards by the commoners, for an Emperor who expelled the General out of the capital, it meant that between the Imperial family and Shen Xin, the commoners had chosen to stand at Shen Xin's side No Imperial family would be able to tolerate subordinates who had a more popular approval than themselves

As for the last sentence, it was the real push that placed Shen Xin to the edge of where the wind and waves were the fiercest HuangFu Hao was poaching Shen Xin in front of E Qi's officials harboured, they would always have unaniazes that were looking at Shen Xin, were like looking at a living General who committed treason

Shen Miao's gaze deepened as she coldly stared at HuangFu Hao

HuangFu Hao was someone who likes to watch others in trouble, as if there was a wickedness in the blood of the Qin country's Ionistic towards the Qin country, but HuangFu Hao still refused to let them off This was perhaps a destined hatred

Emperor Wen Hui had yet to speak when one heard a soft chuckle Everyone looked towards the sound and saw that auests, Prince Rui had placed the wine cup in his hands down and looked towards HuangFu Hao

His voice was deep and pleasant to hear and there was also a touch of lazy intoxication, bringing out a little bewitching power, but his words were not polite at all

He said, “Since Brother HuangFu admire General Shen that much, one may discuss with the Eenerous, he would not disagree”

This was clearly pushi+ng the boat with the currents and when it fell into others ears, there were thousands of feelings

How could HuangFu Hao really want Shen Xin? It was only to push Shen Xin to the edge of the cliff and watch hiave Shen Xin to him then due to the Qin's face, they could only support Shen Xin well But who knew if Shen Xin was E Qi were still in ato place a not trustable person under their eyes, and look for trouble all day long

Eht about this point and the peculiar look in his gaze gradually dispersed, and his previous appearance was back on He laughed, “All under Heavens cherish the talented If the Crown Prince insist on wanting General Shen, Zhen can only follow others' precept, as it is the sincerest form of respect”

This tiFu Hao that was placed in an aard position He was very excited but noas caught in athis person back but to end the matter like this, it would be as if one had lost face All this happened because of that Prince Rui's words HuangFu Hao glanced secretly at the raved that person in his eyes

Princess Ming An was together with HuangFu Hao and seeing that he was in a difficult situation at this ht of how to unbind him from the situation It is just that for one, she could not afford to offend Prince Rui and two, She cannot afford to offend the Great Liang's people Her entire stomach of fire was poured towards the Shen fahing

Her voice was delicate and originally sounded sweet but at this moment with her attitude, it was a bit sharp She said, “How can one dare to take such a Great General like General Shen back Such bravery would 's and Older Brother Crown Prince's head ache It will be better to bring Young Lady Shen back One heard that Young Lady Shen is the pearl of General Shen's palm and a beauty One do not know if our Great Qin have such a fortune?”

Luo Tan and Feng An Ning suddenly grabbed onto Shen Miao's hands and their eyes becahtly rave as Shen Xin looked ferociously at Princess Ming An

Shen Miao however was looking down at the teacup in front of her, as if she did not hear Princess Ming An's words She only watched the tea cup, as the tea spinned on the surface and slowly sank down to the bottom of the cup

A General of a country could not be taken away, but to want a daughter of an official was soood relations with the Qin country, there were instances of hter over But no one illing to enter a foreign country let along marry, as there would not be any help frorievances, one could only s it down themselves

Shen Xin shty and mischievous and cannot afford to have the Princess's interest” Theit

E, but he did not intend to say anything to resolve this conflict Shen Xin had a straightforward character but once it involved Shen Miao, he would take an extreh stance

At the other side when Shen Yue saw this, there was rejoice of She Miao's misfortune in her eyes She could not wait to let Shen Miao marry to the Qin country, and it would be best to marry her to an old n land

That Princess Ming An did not expect that Shen Xin would not give her any face and be rejected, so some unhappiness appeared on her face Because her words had passed the Fu Hao could not continue and also was too lazy to do so He sat by hi An s difficult for the Shen family

Princess Ming An said, “One cannot say that, everyone knows that General Shen's daughter have both integrity and talent So is it Young Lady Shen that look down on BenGong, and is unwilling to greet BenGong at all?”

To place such a big hat of discourteous on, even if Shen Miao was trying to cover the matter up, she would not be able to do so She si An, “This official daughter greets Your Princess Highness”

She suddenly stood up and everyone's gaze landed on Shen Miao's

Two years was enough to raved ihter, as this was just too far away and one gradually beca lady that stood up in front, was a total different person frohted the fairness of her jade like co two years in the Xiao Chun City, the sandy winds did not worn down her skin, but instead she grew up to look more noble Her eyebroere as delicate and beautiful as a painting, and her gestures were so dignified Soft and strong Both were strangely fused into her body, and appeared as a type of dignified grace

Even the Erace

Princess Ming An frowned She did not expect that Shen Miao had such good appearance and bearing She had long known of Shen Miao's reputation of an idiot, thus she brought her up as a topic to eht that she was lifting a rock to smash her own feet

However, for Princess Ming An to be Princess Ming An, she has some abilities She immediately raised her eyebrows, and looked up and down at Shen Miao like she was sizing so Lady Shen has a countenance of a flower, face like thebeauty No wonder General Shen treats Young Lady Shen as a pearl in his palood appearance, which fa Lady?”

These words were overstepping and Shen Xin ih he must take into account the other person's position, he could not tolerate others say things about his daughter Just as he was about to speak, that Princess Ming An diverged fro Lady Shen also has outstanding abilities?”

When those words were spoken, everyone in the hall was excited Yi Pei Lan and the feere resisting sreat difficult

What talent did Shen Miao had? That was soone to the Xiao Chun City, and that was a frontier area with so ar

Shen Miao looked down slightly, “This official's daughter is of hu The Princess have praised too much”

“Young Lady Shen need not beof which, when BenGong was in the Qin country, one heard a few years ago that during the acade Lady Shen achieved a first rank for archery When BenGong heard it, one's heart was ht about this old matter”

Shen Miao's head was bowed and she remained silent Luo Xue Yan's and Shen Qiu's hearts started to be anxious One would be blind if one could not see that Princess Ming An was deliberately finding faults, and targeting Shen Miao

Speaking of that, everyone thought about the ti the Chrysanthemum banquet's academy examinations, Shen Miao and Cai Lin competed in archery and the third arrow that was shot made Cai Lin speechless and put him in a sorry state It was exactly at that time, that a completely different Shen Miao appeared in front of everyone for the first time

Just nice at the tribute dinner, Cai Daren and Cai Lin were present, and Cai Lin's face immediately becarown up Those little grudges with Shen Miao were already long thrown in the back of his er obsessed with Shen Yue It could be said that one se, but he did not expect that one's oldhim incredibly embarrassed

Cai Lin was not the only one that was thinking about matters of the past At the corner of the tribute banquet, the Marquis of Lin An, Xie Ding, was sitting with his two sons The current Marquis of Lin An looked h-spirits, that in such an event like this, he only wanted to find a quiet corner Unexpectedly with the mention about the matter of the acade Xing was present, and surprisingly went up the stage and beaten his two shu sons out of their horses Upon returning to the residence he scolded Xie Jing Xing in fury but in his heart, he was proud of Xie Jing Xing

Thinking of olden tiotten 's face was filled with dejectedness and Xie Chang Wu and Xie Chang Chao, ere beside, saw this and the same flash of dark clouds appeared in their eyes

Princess Ming An still continued speaking, “BenGong's heart have the interest today and want to co Lady Shen, so why not coame”

This rehed first, “Young Lady Shen is a delicate fe about archery?”

“Your Majesty do not know” Princess Ming An said with a laugh, “Originally Young Lady Shen's grace was even heard of in the Great Qin It is said that when the father is a lion, the daughter cannot be a dog General Shen is so incredibly brave and courageous, so Young Lady Shen would definitely be an extraordinary fe Lady Shen is a pretty and delicate fe also a female? Or could it be that Your Majesty find that our Great Qin cannot co Qi?”

Princess Ming An looked char but her words were very vicious In one sentence she even brought out the entire nation of Ming Qi and if one did not co Qi looked down on the Great Qin At such a tiap appear between the Great Qin and the Ming Qi? He looked towards Shen Miao at once and said see Lady Shen think?”

Shen Xin clenched his fists He really wanted to directly reject this rude request for Shen Miao But if one were to reject, it would only let Princess Ming An have a justifiable reason to use

It was however Shen Miao who glance at Princess Ming An and said as she lowered her head, “The Princess' cohter dare not not comply”

'Dare not not comply' At the end she had indicated the reluctance in her heart as if Princess Ming An was a bully

Princess Ming An heard thebehind Shen Miao's words, and her expression sank before she thought of so the Acadeambled their life to co our lives too?”

“No!” Shen Xin did not wait for Shen Miao to speak, and flatly refused it
