The Abandoned Wife of a Military Family: Your disguise has been exposed again.
Chapter 111 What is the Bet
Chapter 111 What is the Bet
Rong Zhen glanced at him, a subtle smile playing on his lips. "I will naturally comply."
Rong Xin said with satisfaction, "It's good that the Imperial Uncle has no objections."
He just had his men investigate Yunwei.
I learned that she had been married before, but they divorced not long ago.
The Imperial Uncle has always been aloof and arrogant, and marrying such a woman would be a stain on his life. He must feel very aggrieved.
Rong Xin felt that he had done something that made Rong Zhen lose face, and the emperor was overjoyed.
Rong Xue thought to herself: This damned emperor has finally done something good.
He ran excitedly to Yunwei and called out without any hesitation, "Royal Aunt."
Yunwei rolled her eyes at him. "Don't shout nonsense."
Rong Xue pouted, "Your royal uncle is going to marry you, so this isn't just random talk."
Mentioning this, Yunwei frowned. This was just Rong Zhen's expedient measure, and he didn't really intend to marry her, did he?
With so many people around, she couldn't very well ask him, so she could only keep her doubts to herself.
Xu was overjoyed. Grabbing Yun Yueshan's hand, she whispered, "Did I hear that right? The Regent is going to marry that girl Weiwei?"
"You heard me right." Yun Yueshan was also delighted, but he was better at hiding his feelings than Xu Shi, and his expression remained indifferent.
The most surprised were Li Yaoting and Chen Yuniang.
"The Regent would actually be interested in her?" Chen Yuniang asked through gritted teeth, her voice laced with sarcasm.
"Didn't you hear? It's the Emperor's will," Li Yaoting said, his face grim.
A woman he didn't want was living a better life than him, and might even become the regent's wife.
Thinking about it, he found it unacceptable.
"Your Majesty of Wei, Princess Rong'an is highly skilled in martial arts. I would like to learn from her." Just then, a rough male voice suddenly rang out.
Everyone felt a sharp pain in their eardrums.
Looking up, one could see an unusually tall and imposing man standing up from the seats of the Yue Kingdom envoys.
But contrary to his appearance, the man actually had a very delicate and handsome face.
Rong Xin paused, her brows furrowing slightly.
He knew that the envoy from the Moon Kingdom was the Moon Kingdom's number one warrior.
Although Princess Rong'an had just displayed considerable strength, he did not believe she could defeat the envoy from the Moon Kingdom.
It was obvious at a glance that the two were of vastly different strengths.
Thinking it over, he said unhappily, "If General Ouyang is interested in a contest, our Wei Kingdom has plenty of outstanding warriors, any one of whom would be willing to play with General Ouyang."
He almost said that the other party was shameless, a grown man challenging a woman, clearly trying to take advantage of her.
"Of course, if anyone in your country wishes to challenge Princess Rong'an, please present a woman of equal status," he added.
Unexpectedly, General Ouyang showed no embarrassment whatsoever. Instead, he provocatively said, "Does His Majesty of Wei look down on women? Does he think women are inferior to men? Does he think Princess Rong'an would lose to me?"
He asked several questions in a row, and Rong Xin couldn't answer them for a while, so her expression turned somewhat unpleasant.
“General Ouyang, you are mistaken. His Majesty meant well. He was afraid that General Ouyang would lose too badly at the hands of Princess Rong’an and lose face. Therefore, he compromised by allowing other warriors from our country to compete with you.” At this moment, Rong Zhen’s calm voice rang out.
General Ouyang wanted to say something, but when Ouyang's gaze swept over him indifferently, he felt a sense of apprehension and was speechless for a moment.
Seeing that he was speechless for a long time, the Wei ministers who were originally angry because of his arrogant words immediately stopped being angry.
It had to be the Regent; his very words intimidated General Ouyang.
Just then, Xuanyuan Ke suddenly chuckled, “Regent, don’t be so serious. Our General Ouyang has always respected those with high martial arts skills. Today, seeing that Princess Rong’an has excellent martial arts skills, he has become interested in sparring with her.”
"Your Majesty and Regent of Wei, rest assured, General Ouyang is very sensible and will certainly not harm Princess Rong'an."
This means he's determined to compete with Yunwei.
Yun Wei frowned almost imperceptibly, and before Rong Zhen could speak again, she suddenly said, "I am honored by General Ouyang's high regard, and this county princess will have a contest with you. May I ask how General Ouyang intends to conduct the contest?"
Upon hearing this, everyone stared at her in astonishment.
She actually accepted the challenge.
Didn't she see General Ouyang's imposing stature?
Even if there were three of them, they might not be as tall and imposing as General Ouyang.
Does she think she still has a chance of winning?
She's completely overestimating herself!
Some people are worried, some are gloating, and some are waiting to see what happens.
Rong Zhen was also taken aback, not expecting her to accept the challenge, but he did not say anything to stop her.
"Weiwei, you've had a match with the Moon Kingdom princess and you must be tired. Take a rest. Let the men handle the match." It was the Empress Dowager who spoke up.
In her opinion, Yun Wei could not possibly be a match for General Ouyang, and it would be bad if she were to get hurt.
“Yes, Your Majesty, please take a rest,” Rong Xue also earnestly advised.
"Weiwei, come sit here with your mother." Madam Xu hurriedly beckoned to Yunwei.
Yunwei ignored her and said to the Empress Dowager and Rong Xue, "Don't worry."
Those three simple words eased their anxieties a little.
Seeing that Rong Zhen did not stop them, the two stopped worrying.
If Yunwei had no chance of winning, Rong Zhen would have no choice but to stop her.
"Well done, indeed a woman who is just as capable as any man." General Ouyang suddenly praised, then leaped up and landed in front of Yun Wei.
Everyone who witnessed this was taken aback.
General Ouyang looked burly, but his figure was surprisingly light and agile.
Facing the Huaiwu man who suddenly stood in front of her, Yun Wei was not afraid at all, and simply asked, "What is the bet?"
General Ouyang was taken aback.
It seemed unexpected that she would bring up the bet.
In his view, this frail woman in front of him probably couldn't even withstand a single move from him.
Thinking it over, he crossed his arms and looked down at him, asking, "What kind of bet do you want?"
“If I win, your Yue Kingdom will have to sign a treaty promising never to invade Wei Kingdom again,” Yun Wei said, emphasizing each word.
General Ouyang was stunned.
Upon realizing it, I realized this woman had quite the audacity.
Did she think she could win?
What a joke!
The others also looked at Yun Wei with surprise.
In their view, Yun Wei could not possibly win against General Ouyang. Knowing she couldn't win, how dare she still speak so arrogantly?
For a moment, everyone shook their heads.
General Ouyang was certain that Yunwei could not win, but since it concerned the important matters of both countries, he did not dare to agree rashly, and instead looked at Xuanyuan Ke.
Xuanyuan Ke's gaze remained fixed on Yun Wei.
The more I look at it, the more familiar it seems, but I just can't remember who it is.
Upon seeing General Ouyang's questioning gaze, he nodded slightly.
General Ouyang felt reassured and looked at Yun Wei, saying, "We can accept this bet, but if I win, your Wei Kingdom will have to submit to the Yue Kingdom and pay tribute every year."
Yun Wei frowned, about to say something, when Rong Zhen's authoritative and deep voice suddenly rang out, "It's fine."
These words caused an uproar among the officials of Wei.
The emperor's expression also turned ugly, and he said in a deep voice, "Uncle, what are you doing?"
