C456 Trying to take care of her (1/2)

On the other side were the princes and officials who had not gone on stage to perform kowtow, as well as the noble young masters. They were also excitedly waiting for the start of the match.

Zhou Chengdi had loved kowtowing since he was young, and when he became emperor, he even treated kowtowing as a way to ”rule the country and practice martial arts.” Not only was kowtow widely spread in the army, but it was also popular among the court aristocrats.

For instance, the leader of the imperial guards, Jiang Keji, had once been a master of cuju. Because of this, he had been transferred to the Hall of Rongyuan and later promoted to the position of commander.

Not only men, but women in the Great Zhou Dynasty were also very keen on kudu. At one time, kudu had become a must-see item at some gatherings.

Therefore, the princesses and noble ladies on the field were also able to dance. Today, they were also dressed in the same attire. In a moment, they would also perform the 'white fight' during the 'kuda' performance.

At this moment, there were two sides on the field, with the goal between them. Both sides were on one side, and the rule was that the more people on the field, the better.

The two teams were led by Jiang Keji, Feng Yu, Feng Ye, and Xiao He. The four of them wore black robes, white leggings, and pants, and their robes were tied up at their waists and tied up at their waists, making it easy for them to bow in a clean manner. As for Feng Yunzheng, he was leading Lu Jingyao, Xiao Hu, and Feng Rong, the four of them wore white gowns, and red leggings.

At this point, the competition had yet to begin, and everyone was still tidying up their clothes and warming up.

”Lianyue …” ”Princess Eleven!” Princess Eleven shouted as she sat down next to Lian Ruyue.

Lian Ruyue stood up when she saw her and said, ”Princess.”

Princess Eleven looks at her surroundings, gets close to her side and whispers, ”Lian Ruyue, do you have any messages?”

Lian Ru Yue knew who she was asking about and shook her head. ”Not yet.”

A look of disappointment appeared on Princess Eleven's face.

”If there is, I will inform the princess immediately.” Lian Ruyue saw her downcast gaze and said again.

”Alright!” When Princess Eleven heard this, she nodded vigorously and returned to her seat.

Feng Yunzheng looked at the familiar figure on the high platform as a smile slowly emerged on the corner of his lips. Ye Feng handed over a red silk belt to Feng Yunzheng with both hands.

Feng Yunzheng tied the red silk to his forehead and immediately felt a bit more handsome. When he turned around to see Lu Jingyao, the coldness in his eyes deepened.

”Duke, that is the Lian Yue Yun that Madam Xiao spoke of.” Lu Jingyao's bodyguard walked over to him and gave him a handkerchief to wipe his face. He quietly approached him and whispered.

Lu Jingyao followed the guard's gaze and looked over. When his gaze landed on Lian Ruyue, he only saw her plain clothes, calm eyes, and an indifferent face. Her temperament was completely different from the other girls; she was like a cold orchid.

Lu Jingyao narrowed his eyes and asked, ”Her?” It's a pity that this princess does not like this woman's looks and temperament. On the other hand, the person beside her is someone I like a lot, like a nimble little thing.

The guard glanced at her and said, ”My lord, this is Princess Eleven, Feng Lingyue. The empress had given birth to her, but the empress was restricted to her freedom. Although she is a princess, she doesn't have much weight.

”Oh? That's really pitiful. ” When Lu Jingyao's gaze landed on Princess Eleven, an indifferent expression appeared in his eyes.

”But... She's already engaged to her cousin Young Master Xiao He. ” The guard said.

”So it's Xiao He's woman. What a pity.” A regretful expression appeared on Lu Jingyao's face, ”But even if I like her, I can't. The person I want to marry must be someone who can't be married off until the end of the first month.” The corner of his mouth curled up into a determined smile.

At this time, Xiao He was dashing towards the high platform from the Dancing Platform. His gaze locked onto a small figure on top of it. His unrestrained attitude attracted the gazes of everyone around him.

He ran all the way to the bottom of the high platform, not caring about the opinions of others. Princess Eleven had already clearly indicated to him that she would marry him, and he only wanted to wait until the time was ripe to marry her.

He called out to Princess Eleven, ”Ling Yue'er, Ling Yue'er …”

”Princess.” At first, she didn't want to reply, but when she thought about how she had lied to him that day, she felt guilty again. She stood up, walked to the front, and looked down, saying, ”Xiao He, what happened?”

Xiao He raised his head and looked at her with a face full of smiles as he asked, ”I'll win whatever you like in the hands of the Emperor.”

”If you want to win, you can?” Princess Eleven disagrees with him.

”Of course.” Xiao He, however, said very openly, ”The Emperor said that he only cared about trying his best and that he wasn't allowed to care who his opponent was.

When Princess Eleven looked at Xiao He's wanton and arrogant face, she couldn't help but think of another beautiful and sorrowful face …

If he hadn't used his technique, he would have definitely been in the Dancing Platform today, letting others see his fiery-like figure. After walking for a few days, he wondered how things were going. Was he safe?
