Chapter 57 Let’s compete!

"Not really." Feng Yici didn't know how to solve the problem, so he could only take one step at a time. Nowadays, medicinal materials are in short supply, and even if he spends a lot of money, he may not be able to buy them.

"Go to the black market to buy. There are many medicine shops there." Many of the precious medicinal materials in Miaochun Pavilion were bought from the black market by Nan Yi. Most of the shops inside were purchased from the Western Regions, which was very novel.

It's just too expensive.

"Okay." Feng Yici agreed. He didn't know if there was any in the black market, so he could only go there and try his luck tonight.

After breakfast, Feng Yici and Nan Yi went to the outskirts. The place they chose was a bit remote. There were many forbidden troops guarding the outside. There were not many people coming. Nan Yi and Feng Yici got off the carriage and walked inside.

go.

Many officials also brought their female relatives, and the atmosphere was very lively. After everyone arrived, His Majesty came over. Everyone knelt on the ground and said:

"Greetings to Your Majesty——"

"Everyone, get up! You can have fun today. You can feel free to do whatever you want." His Majesty sat down in the highest position and said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty——"

The first Cuju competition is about to begin. The players are all the daughters and sons of officials. Following the judge's order, everyone starts to move out, raising a lot of dust.

"General Nan, can you compete with me in Cuju today?" Xu Jingsheng came up and said. He lost to Nanyi in the spring hunting last time and wanted to save some face in Cuju this time.

Although he can't match her in terms of martial arts, he can definitely beat her in Cuju!

"Why do you want to compete in everything? It's just spring hunting, Cuju is just for fun, what's there to compete with?"

"I have nothing to do, are you afraid of losing to me? Don't you dare to compete?" Xu Jingtang wanted to beat her once and would seize any opportunity.

Nan Yi was speechless and didn't want to pay attention to him. She focused on the Cuju competition. Fu Min snorted lightly and said with some disdain:

"No matter what the competition is, you can't beat General Nan."

Cuju was played a lot when they were in the frontier. It can be said that Nanyi has been playing Cuju since childhood. Xu Jingtang will definitely lose. There is no comparison. Why let him be embarrassed in front of so many civil and military officials?

"We haven't competed yet, how do you know I can't beat General Nan?" Xu Jingtang said with confidence in his eyes.

Fu Min stopped talking and shook his head helplessly. Why was he so disobedient? If he lost this time, he would not only lose the face of his third prince, but also the face of Lin'an. He might not want to go back to Lin'an.

?!

"If I still can't beat you in Cuju, I'll let you do whatever you want!" Xu Jingtang said in a very firm tone. He must compete with Nan Yi today.

Must win against Nanyi once!

"It's a competition! You really won't shed tears until you see the coffin." Nan Yi agreed. He was afraid that he would lose all his face and dignity this time.

After the first Cuju competition, Xu Jingtang and Nan Yi joined the team. The two stood on opposite sides. Their joining made the competition more lively, with many cheers shouting the name of General Nan.

Feng Yici sat high up and looked at her. After a while, she started competing with Xu Jingtang, and the judge announced that the competition had begun.

Nanyi took the lead in kicking the Cuju ball. With Xu Jingtang chasing her, she played tricks and kicked the ball in without letting it fall to the ground. Such a powerful operation attracted many people to help her.

In the first game, Xu Jingtang failed to score a goal, and the loss was extremely tragic.

In the second game, in order to save some face for him, Nan Yi gave in to him and teased him a lot on the court, and finally lost to him.

In the third game, a crucial game, Xu Jingtang showed his strength. Even if it was a tie, he could feel that in the last two games, Nanyi kept giving way to him in order to prevent himself from losing miserably.

.

At the end of the competition, the judge declared a tie. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Nan Yi had been giving way to Xu Jingtang, otherwise she would definitely win!

"Third Prince, you still can't do it." Nan Yi shouted loudly in the field. Xu Jingtang didn't expect that she would be so powerful. He was willing to lose this time, but it was a bit embarrassing.

"General Nan!"

"General Nan! General Nan!" Nan Yi's name was constantly shouted outside the venue. She walked out of the venue quickly, with beads of sweat all over her forehead, and her messy hair clinging tightly to it. She walked to the wind

Sitting next to Yi Ci, he drank the water in his glass and poured another glass.

It wasn't until the third Cuju competition started that Nan Yi's name was stopped outside the court. Feng Yici wiped Nan Yi's sweat with his sleeves.

"It's so hot!" Nan Yi said. She was panting heavily and her face was red. She was very cute.

"Why did you give in to him?" Fu Min asked in confusion. He should have been able to beat him in three games, but he chose to give in in the last two.

"We can't let him really lose face in front of all the civil and military officials. Will he come back to Lin'an?" Nan Yi said, drinking all the water in the cup, and Feng Yici gave him another cup.

.

"General, why do you need to worry about this? Since he overestimates his own capabilities, he should be defeated!" Fu Min interjected. He watched anxiously from the outside and was discouraged every time Nan Yi gave in.

Nan Yi chuckled softly, keeping things in mind so that they could meet each other easily in the future. Now he was using his identity as the third prince of Lin'an to transport life-saving medicinal materials. How could he be so disrespectful to him?

"General, after all, he is also the prince of Lin'an, so he can't lose too miserably." Feng Yici said, if it was a fun Cuju competition and he lost too miserably, it would reach the ears of Emperor Lin'an, and it would appear that Nanyi was bullying him.

Always save some face.

"Yes, Your Highness." Fu Min did not dare to follow Feng Yici to take the blame, so he responded calmly.

Nan Yi drank all the water in the cup, picked a piece of pastry and ate it. His Majesty sat aside and looked at it very happily. He suddenly asked:

"Princess, what do you think of Zhou Shangshu?"

"Zhou Shangshu...it's pretty good." Nan Yi put down the cake in her hand and said after hesitating for a moment. Only then did she realize that this Cuju play might have a deeper meaning.

"Compared to Nan Shangshu?"

Nan Yi frowned slightly. She also heard the meaning of His Majesty's words, but she didn't know how to answer. Zhou Yiwen did have things that people appreciated, but compared to his father, he was naturally not as good as him. But when faced with His Majesty's inquiry, if he said that he was not as good as

, which will make him unhappy.

"Who do you think your father values ​​more?" Nan Yi asked in return. Since he couldn't answer the question no matter what, he would leave the matter to His Majesty so that he could know what he was thinking.

"Both Shangshu Nan and Shangshu Zhou are loyal to me. I value them both, but I don't know whose ability is more outstanding. I want you to analyze it for me so that I can make up my mind."

"Why does the Crown Princess need to intervene in my father's decision? She had just returned to Beijing not long ago, and she didn't understand the affairs of the previous dynasty. Now that her status makes it even more difficult for her to handle politics in the previous dynasty, everything is decided by her father.

"Feng Yici came to Nanyi's rescue.
