"Afraid?" Xiahou Mingxun smiled contemptuously, and just as he was about to say something, Xie Chen's voice sounded slowly, "Mingxun, Your Majesty, be careful before you."

The clear and moist voice fell on everyone's ears, every word and every word was obvious beating, but it was not known whether the beating person was Xiahou Mingxun or Li Qiyou.

"It doesn't matter." Li Shengxuan on the high seat smiled slightly, "King Yucheng and Patriarch Xiahou are both outspoken people, and even General Xiahou wouldn't take such verbal disputes to heart."

Xiahou Yunzhao put the cup in his hand on the table, raised his eyes and glanced at Li Qiyou who was opposite, with a proud expression, "Everyone here knows why Xiahou's family came today. You don't need to provoke me, King Yucheng, Xiahou's family It is true that the authority is to be handed over, and it is true that His Majesty has appointed someone. However, if it is to be handed over to Mrs. Fang, it depends on whether she has the ability to bear it."

Fang Zilan saw a few people coming and going, setting fire to her body, so she couldn't pretend to be deaf and dumb and stay out of it, so she stood up and saluted respectfully, "Your Majesty has not made a decision yet, General Xiahou, don't worry. If Your Majesty really chooses me , How General Xiahou wants to test my ability is up to you."

Li Shengxuan fixedly looked at Fang Zilan, who was neither humble nor overbearing, and Xiahou Yunzhao, who was in a stalemate below, and said lightly: "In this case, General Xiahou will have a contest with Mr. Fang. If General Xiahou wins, the Xiahou family will never allow the right to resign from office in the future." As for the matter, Master Fang is stationed in the Northern Territory and cannot return to Beijing. If Sir Fang wins, he will take over all the authority of the Xiahou family. After that, the Xiahou family will stay in the old Baiyue and will never be used again."

Fang Zilan raised her head abruptly, stared at Li Shengxuan in a daze, "Your Majesty..."

She was interrupted before she could say anything, Zhuge Yu got up and knelt in the hall, "Please think twice, Your Majesty."

"You are not joking." Li Shengxuan looked indifferent, while Zhuge Yu was still kneeling upright, showing no intention of getting up.

Xiahou Yunzhao laughed lightly, "It's just what I want." She stood up, stopped in front of Zhuge Yu, turned her head and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, Zhuge, Your Majesty knows it well."

She didn't answer, an obvious acquiescence.

"Master Fang is a good opponent." Xie Chen nodded slightly, smiling lightly, "Your Majesty's vision is indeed very good."

She was undecided, and she was forced to the sidelines while hesitating, and she would fall if she was not careful.

"It's easy to say." Xiahou Yunzhao hooked the corners of her lips, and smiled a little naughty, which made Fang Zilan almost think that it was her own illusion. After she recovered, she had already followed Xiahou Yunzhao to stand on the martial arts arena of the Forbidden Army in the palace.

Zhuge Yu looked up at Xiahou Yunzhao, only to see her walking in front of Fang Zilan, stretching out her hand as a gesture of invitation, "Master Fang, would you like to fight with me?"

Xiahou Yunzhao didn't dodge, and swung her sword straight to meet her. When the two swords met, she felt the power from the sword, and slightly raised the corners of her lips, "It's not too bad."

Off the court, Xiahou Mingxun stared intently at the two on the court, and sighed softly, "I haven't seen my sister like this for a long time."

"Things that are not on the table have developed a stubborn temper." King Rong An let go of his hand, and let the bird in his hand fall straight to the ground. "So what if it has a powerful beak? After all, it is a dead end."

"I..." Fang Zilan bit her lips tightly, her face paled a little, "So, offended."

Xiahou Yunzhao pressed on every step, but Fang Zilan retreated steadily.

The two returned to the center of the martial arts arena after several rounds of back and forth. Fang Zilan's expression was chilling, while Xia Hou Yunzhao's eyes were determined. The outcome was hard to tell.

She looked carefully at the almost arrogant Xiahou Yunzhao in front of her, but what she thought of was the undecided words of Li Shengxuan in the carriage that night when she went to steal the edict.

"Go to the infected area in person?" King Rong An raised his hand to caress the bird's feather, but unexpectedly, the bird pecked his hand, and decisively squeezed it firmly, and the bird lost its breath in a moment.

Immediately, she didn't leave any room for it, and approached Fang Zilan with every move.

The subordinate knelt outside the courtyard, and said cautiously: "Master Fang said in a letter that pirates are making trouble, please Your Majesty to ask General Xiahou to help. There is also a plague raging, and she has personally brought people to treat it to appease the people."

She tightly held the sword in her hand, and Xiahou Yunzhao's voice came over clearly, "Master Fang, are you afraid?"

"If you're afraid, that's fine." Xiahou Yunzhao took a sword flower and put the sword behind her back. "A strong enemy is in front, and he doesn't even have the courage to fight. Such a person is not worthy of being my opponent, let alone my opponent." Take over the position of Xiahou's family."

Just waiting for an order, the sword blades collided and made a metallic sound, Fang Zilan took a step back involuntarily.

The two stood on the martial arts arena with their swords in hand, and Li Shengxuan and other people off the arena stared at them intently.

Xia Hou Yunzhao withdrew his sword sharply, his expression was as cold as ice, "If Mr. Fang doesn't bother to fight with me, you might as well just say it. Being so absent-minded is too contemptuous of others."

Now, Xiahou Yunzhao is right in front of her eyes. If she wins and replaces her, she will be the one who will be stared at forever.

Fang Zilan pursed her lips into a straight line, but she couldn't say no, so she simply nodded in response, "Then I won't be polite. I would like to ask General Xiahou for your advice."

Fang Zilan calmed down a little, and stood firm on the sidelines.

As soon as she finished speaking, the tip of the sword pointed straight at Xiahou Yunzhao.

Can he bear the weight of that position?At that time, she said that his ascension to the throne meant that every word and deed of Xiahou's family would be watched by people from now on.

Their words fell into Li Shengxuan's ears verbatim, but he didn't say anything, his eyes still fell on the people in the field.

You are not allowed to bring weapons into the palace, so Fang Zilan and Xiahou Yunzhao both use the swords of the guards.

Within two days, a subordinate sent a letter to the capital. When King Rong An heard the news, he was feeding the budgerigars in the courtyard. He didn't even lift his eyelids, but asked lazily. ,"How to say?"

Fang Zilan wore a purple dress with long sleeves and a lightly dancing skirt, like a butterfly dancing among flowers. It lacked the spirit of conquest on the battlefield and added a sense of femininity.

Compared with the ignorant and courageous person she was when they first met, she has also changed a lot. Her every move is calm and grand, just like Xiahou Yunzhao.

Even if she loses, she can afford Xiahou Yunzhao's position.

An almost sudden thought broke into Li Shengxuan's mind like this. At first he was shocked and then he was happy. He didn't want to get to the bottom of it, but he knew very well that he couldn't take his eyes off her.

He watched helplessly as the tip of her sword touched Xiahou Yunzhao's throat by an inch, and Xiahou Yunzhao's sword rested on the side of her neck, and the two of them stopped at the same time.
