Chapter 31 - Martial arts competition

But also, uglier to do.

Since he didn't say he was leaving, he was bound to stay.

The corner of Duan Bai Yue's mouth is raised, gladly following.

The hot spring hall is very empty, Eunuch Si Xi first dismissed the palace maids and chambermaids, when the two went in, surrounded by only the small sound of water drops falling down. A milky-white hot spring is emitting a foggy mist, and there are hints of medicinal fragrance on the nose.

Eunuch Si Xi was quick to set up two sets of bathing utensils and seeing that Chu Yuan did not want to be served by himself, he bowed and withdrew, and gently closed the door.

Duan Bai Yue has been standing in the same place to look at him.

Chu Yuan went behind the screen to change his clothes, stepped into the water with his bare feet, and then relaxed his whole body against the wall of the pool, as if he sighed comfortably.

After a long time, it seems like someone gently squatted down beside him.

"I will accompany you?" Duan Bai Yue asked in a soft voice.

He thinks he is not a patient person, but also rarely listens to other people's views, but there is only one person except, not to mention the forced, even a hint of aggression, but also do not spare.

Chu Yuan still did not say anything, as if he did not hear, but also as if ...... acquiescence.

So, a few moments later, the water came with a ripple.

The two soaked in the warm pool water, looking at the carved wooden beams on the top of the hall, but no one spoke first.

Chu Yuan closed his eyes and looked like he was about to fall asleep.

Duan Bai Yue reached out and carefully embraced him into his arms.

......

Eunuch Si Xi thought outside, since he had Xinan Wang, he had someone to do everything for him, and I was half free to say less.

Not bad, not bad.

Perhaps it was because he was too tired, or perhaps because the pool was too warm. Chu Yuan didn't say anything but took the initiative to find a comfortable position on his chest and continued to be drowsy.

After the drenched white robe was soaked in water, it was tightly attached to the body, and under the slightly open neckline was a beautiful and young body. There is no usual majesty in the golden-roofed palace. It is the most defenseless look.

Duan Bai Yue tightened his arms even more.

There was a hot and humid breath in his ears, Chu Yuan turned his head slightly and hid, his whole body seemed to shudder.

“Don't think about anything." Duan Bai Yue said, "Sleep well."

Chu Yuan gave a low “hmm”.

Duan Bai Yue rubbed his shoulders for a while, feeling that the body in his arms had gradually relaxed, and said, “Take you back to the bed chamber? It's not good for your body to soak anymore.”

Chu Yuan was silent, not knowing if he was asleep or didn't want to talk.

"I'll stay with you tonight, and tomorrow when the two warriors compete, I'll stay with you too." Duan Bai Yue continued in his ear, "If you are tired, I will take you back to Xinan Mansion for a while, if you do not want to come back, then do not come back. Those old heads love to admonish, let them admonish, kneel for days and nights to know that the emperor is not in, you guess will not be angry to kill the braids?"

"Hey!" Chu Yuan shrouded and laughed, turned around and slapped him, "Do not talk about Lord Tai Fu like this."

“It's not just Tao Rende.” Duan Bai Yue looked at him, "This courtier, I do not like a lot of people."

“There are many courtiers in this dynasty who dislike Xinan Mansion." Chu Yuan took one side of the prepared clothes, Duan Bai Yue only felt that his arms were empty, but when he looked at the person, he had already reached the shore, wrapped in a wide robe, his cheeks were crimson, and his complexion was much better than before, “Let's go, go back."

Duan Bai Yue stepped out of the water.

Chu Yuan's face stiffened, and then turned around and walked quickly outside.

Xinan Wang thought, wet clothes will naturally stick, and I did not let it stick.

The person who was looking at the situation was at a disadvantage.

Eunuch Si Xi was very surprised, he just ordered to make a pot of tea, and was prepared to guard here for two or three hours but did not expect to come out so soon.

Chu Yuan covered his mouth and coughed.

"Ah yo, Your Majesty." Eunuch Si Xi hurriedly pulled him back into the hall, this just came out of the water, not dry, wet wrapped in a robe to go outside, Xinan Wang also did not care more.

"Go out!" Chu Yuan said.

Duan Bai Yue was very cooperative.

Eunuch Si Xi dried Chu Yuan's hair, and changed into thicker clothes, with a cloak hat wrapped tightly, before saying: "Your Majesty, back to the bed chamber?"

Chu Yuan only showed two eyes and said: "This is the day of three hottest days."

"Three hottest days can't be cool, and tomorrow Your Majesty still has to see King Goryeo." Eunuch Si Xi is very insistent, "just two steps, two steps to return to the bed chamber."

Chu Yuan had to pull the cloak around his neck and went out of the hall by himself.

Duan Bai Yue is waiting outside and was shocked to see; this will not be heatstroke again.

As Eunuch Si Xi walked, he winked at Xinan Wang. Did you see it? The emperor would have to serve like this. In the future, you would not let him out if he was soaked all over.

After soaking in the hot spring, the whole body is loose. Chu Yuan lay on the bed, yawning lazily.

Duan Bai Yue leaned against him.

Chu Yuan said, "Go back.”

“No." Duan Bai Yue calmly said, “Xinan Wang is ambitious, since he can sleep on the dragon bed, how can he miss it?"

Chu Yuan closed his eyes and refused to talk to him again.

In the second half of the night, it rained outside, and Duan Bai Yue turned sideways to block a trace of cold wind for him and surrounded the person in his arms.

He naturally knows that they share the same heart, but also because they share the same heart, they are more aware of the difficult situation he is in. He is far away in the southwest and has no restrictions, but he is different. The two of them often tease the old courtiers, but once those old courtiers learn of their relationship, they will probably be knocked on the stone steps in front of the long hall. The sycophants and traitors are not enough, now the rest of the court are willing to break their bones for Dachu wise ministers, the reason why this mountain and country can be solid as a golden temple, without which the old head may not be able to. If they are allowed to die to admonish the king's blood splashed gold hall, not to mention the people will gossip, foreign enemies may also make a big deal out of this, then, I'm afraid there will be a headache.

The two of them have been avoiding it, but love is not something that can be avoided if they want to.

Now this is good, but perhaps only for a lifetime.

Duan Bai Yue smiled bitterly and reached out to gently pinch his cheek. If I had known this, I should have let the fat-headed Chu Lan become the emperor, and the lust, the wine, the flesh, the forest, probably three days to overturn a group of dead old men, how to think how comfortable.

"Hmm?" Chu Yuan opened his eyes in a daze.

"Nothing." Duan Bai Yue said, "Go back to sleep."

Chu Yuan said: "What time is it?"

Duan Bai Yue replied, "The time to sleep."

Chu Yuan also did not ask more questions, and fell asleep again, the dream will occasionally cough a couple of times, look more heart-wrenching.

The day dawned a little bit, Eunuch Si Xi walked back and forth with his hands outside, almost going to the early morning, whether to go in and call or not, Xinan Wang was still there.

Chu Yuan sat up from the bed.

Duan Bai Yue behind him said: "Why can you still wake up on your own?"

Chu Yuan asked, "Did you let Si Xi out?"

Duan Bai Yue said, "He didn't come in at all."

"Nonsense." Chu Yuan draped his clothes and got out of bed, "Si Xi!"

"Ugh!" Eunuch Si Xi was relieved and rushed in to wait for him to wash and change his clothes.

Duan Bai Yue did not get up, leaning on the bed to look at him.

"After the morning court, I will lead all the officials to the martial arts competition." Chu Yuan asked Si Xi to fix his clothes and crown.

Duan Bai Yue said, "I will follow in disguise." Since the divine doctor Ye and the young master of the Riyue Mountain Villa Shen Qian Feng got married, they often train a new group of guards to send to the palace; the appearance of a new face is not unusual.

Chu Yuan nodded his head and didn't say much, so he went out to go to the morning court. After a while, Eunuch Si Xi returned, bringing breakfast in his hand, saying that His Majesty had specially ordered it, asking Xinan Wang to enjoy it.

Naturally, it is very thoughtful, but looking at that full plate of portions, Duan Bai Yue felt that in the future perhaps should find an opportunity to say that his own food is actually not very ...... shocking.

Although Chu and Goryeo have always been good friends, the matter of martial arts competition is also related to the face of a country, no one wants to lose. Chu Yuan came back after the morning court, and saw that Duan Bai Yue had finished changing his face, completely changed his face, but was also quite handsome.

Chu Yuan said: "This will not work."

"Why not?" Duan Bai Yue doubted, "can recognize?"

Chu Yuan said: "No."

Duan Bai Yue: "......"

Then why?

Chu Yuan slanted his eyes: "You really plan to go to the marriage?"

Duan Bai Yue: "......"

Chu Yuan picked up a cup of tea on the table.

Duan Bai Yue said: "I'm just a guard." Is this can also being the princess to be liked?

Chu Yuan frowned: "Hurry up!"

Duan Bai Yue had to sit back in front of the mirror, look around and put a scar on his face.

Chu Yuan said, "It still doesn't work!”

Duan Bai Yue had to continue to stick it to his face, turning himself into a scar face.

Chu Yuan stared at him carefully.

“It's almost there, right?" Duan Bai Yue blushed bitterly, “If this can be seen, then Princess Goryeo really has a problem with her vision."”

Chu Yuan reluctantly passed and said again: "You just stand today and don't do anything.”

“That's natural, do you want me to sing and dance?" Duan Bai Yue said clearly.

Chu Yuan laughed.

"Still not said, your body has cooled down today?" Duan Bai Yue put his palm on his forehead, but it was avoided.

"You stay away." Chu Yuan said.

Duan Bai Yue asked, "Why?"

Chu Yuan said: "Because ugly."

Duan Bai Yue: "......"

However, it is really ugly.

When Emperor Chu appeared in the arena with his guards, all the courtiers were shocked, and King Goryeo almost lost the wine glass in his hand.

Xinan Wang was sad in his heart, because the previous scars were not enough, and when he was about to go out, he didn't know where Chu Yuan got a piece of black cloth and half covered his eyes.

Chu Yuan was very calm, but he was not ugly anyway.

Tao Rende shook his head again and again in his heart. What happened to Xiao Wang Ye and Master Shen? They also sent it to the palace in this way, and they are also not afraid of disturbing the holy emperor.

After everyone was seated, Princess Goryeo also came forward to salute, although she is not beautiful, but after all, she comes from a noble background, her temperament is always there, her eyebrows are considered to be righteous, her behavior is generous, the people who want to marry should not be few.

“Come, come, come." King Goryeo stretched out his hand and beckoned his sister to his side.

After Kim Ju sat down, her eyes would fall on Duan Bai Yue from time to time. Chu Yuan coughed twice and tilted his head to drink a glass of wine. General Shen is obviously sitting at the next table, handsome eyebrows and elegant demeanor, why not go to see him?

Duan Bai Yue has a headache. If others don't look at it like this, it's weird, right?

“Your Majesty, is the competition about to begin?" Shen Qian Fan asked in a low voice.

Chu Yuan nodded slightly.

Everyone was full of energy, waiting for the show. King Goryeo whispered to Kim Ju: “Take a good look, just tell your brother which one you like.”

In the first round of the competition, the person from Chu was Liu Wei, the second son of Liu Dajiong. Goryeo also sent Wangsun Gongzi. The two fought more than a hundred times. In the end, Liu Wei saw a flaw and knocked the opponent to the ground. It was regarded as a win.

The crowd applauded, and King Goryeo also clapped his hands and applauded, but regretted in his heart because he had already gotten married.

But Kim Ju didn't like Liu Wei either. She had Duan Bai Yue in her heart first. At this time, no matter who she looked at, she felt that it was a bit different.

In the second round of the competition, Goryeo was the little prince Jin Min, and Shen Qian Fan cupped his fists and said, "I'm offended.”

Kim Tae hurriedly in his sister's ear: "This is not possible, I heard that soon married, the sword spike is his beloved's gift."

Kim Ju: "......"

Riyue Martial Arts is the best in the world. Although Shen Qian Fan is not as talented as his elder brother Shen Qian Feng, he is also a first-class master. He subdued Jin Min with only a dozen moves.

Chu Yuan smiled slightly, although King Goryeo still applauded, his face was already a little stiff.

After that, Chu won another match. The fourth match is said to be won by Goryeo, but people who practice martial arts can see that the Chu warriors are secretly giving in, so as not to embarrass the guests.

King Goryeo was a little embarrassed, so he got up and said loudly, "We want to change a warrior, I wonder if the Emperor of Chu can agree?"

"Huh?" Chu Yuan said, "Naturally, who does King Goryeo want to exchange?"

Kim Tae motioned to the young prince Wangsun who had already played before to stand down and whispered a few words in the ear of the squire. The squire took orders and hurriedly left. After a while, he returned with one person, but the rest of them were shocked. Saw that the man was strong and tall, and the ordinary man was standing beside him, barely reaching his shoulders. The hair is like hard thorns, tied together at will, and the face is washed clean, but the tattoos on the top are even more obvious and hideous. The ground shook when he walked, as if he was about to step on the ground out of a deep pit.

The ministers of Chu looked at each other, not understanding what this was.

“The emperor." King Goryeo said, “This person is a slave I redeemed from the cattle and horse market before. He is highly skilled in martial arts. I wonder if he can fight the warriors of Chu?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone muttered in their hearts. This competition was originally for fun, so the people sent by both sides are also in the same position. Now King Goryeo doesn't know where to get a slave. If Chu sends a general minister, it would be a loss of self-worth if he wins, but it would be even more ugly if he loses.

“Tsk tsk." Liu Dajiong whispered, “This King Goryeo is also very unkind, I'm afraid Your Majesty will not give a reward this time."

"What time is it now, still thinking about giving a reward?" Tao Rende pounded him with his elbow, "Quickly think of a way to muddle through the matter."

"What can I do? Prime Minister Liu is the best at muddying things up." Liu Dajiong said.

The two of them looked at Liu Yishui at the side table and saw that he was drinking tea in a slow and orderly manner.

......

"Look, you Liu family." Tao Rende disgusted, "usually mason, the key moment will become a mud man."

"You have the ability, then you say something." Liu Dajiong said, "Look at our emperor, his face is green."

Duan Bai Yue whispered in his ear, "I go."

Chu Yuan frowned.

"It's okay." Duan Bai Yue said, "You trust me."

Chu Yuan thought about it and nodded slightly.

The people of Chu were relieved to see that Duan Bai Yue was on the scene. The Riyue Mountain Villa came out, it must not be bad. The two of them are both fierce-looking, and they look quite suitable.

Chu Yuan secretly clenched his right hand.

The Goryeo slave roared, both feet "dong" a stomp, and immediately flew up a piece of dust, even the ground was sunken into half a foot.

Liu Dajiong was startled.

Duan Bai Yue had no weapon in his hand, but only looked at him coldly.

The Goryeo slave leaped up and pounced on him like a tarzan.

Shen Qian Fan looked at it, his eyebrows frowned. He previously thought that this person is just a brute force, but just this leap, it looks like he has learned kung fu, coupled with his natural strength, afraid that even if this guard comes from the Riyue, may not win.

Duan Bai Yue dodged and kicked his opponent backwards a few steps. There are many people here, in order to avoid being seen, he did not use Xinan Mansion’s kung fu.

The slave was enraged, and his moves became more and more vicious and rude. Duan Bai Yue originally wanted to fight quickly but felt that it was too disgraceful to the Goryeo kingdom - so he had to accompany the struggle for hundreds of moves before he was pinned to the ground and subdued.

Shen Qian Fan's heart is even more puzzled, looking at the kung fu style, definitely not from the Riyue, where did the emperor find this person?

"Excuse me." Duan Bai Yue let go of his hand and stood up.

King Goryeo smiled embarrassedly and took the lead and slapped his palms a few times: “The warriors of Da Chu are really powerful.”

Chu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. He had been regretting it before. Why did he cover one eye when he went out? He couldn't even see clearly during the competition.

The ministers also recovered their joy one after another, but before they could finish the next snack, King Goryeo said again: "I wonder if Emperor Chu can give this warrior to Goryeo?”

Chu Yuan said simply and neatly: "No.”

……

King Goryeo had to sit back with a smile on his face. Previously, even if he was denied a reward, he would mostly beat around the bush and find a less crowded place to talk about it, but this was the first time he was so blunt.

With this match, the rest of the warriors on both sides knew what to do and the atmosphere was much more peaceful. But after more than a dozen matches, Kim Ju has not found anyone she likes, and is only interested in Duan Bai Yue - but this time not for the person, but for the kung fu.

She has been training in martial arts since she was a child, so she could already see that Duan Bai Yue had been giving in secretly. If it was a real fight, the slave would never last more than ten moves. Although there are a lot of people in Chu, but there are not many who are really good at kung fu, one is Shen Qian Fan, and the other is the guard with a scar.

It was obviously impossible to ask Emperor Chu for a general, but she didn't expect that he was so stingy that even a guard refused to give it.

“Pay attention." Kim Tae reminded her sister in a low voice, “This is Dachu, don't act arbitrarily."

Kim Ju bit her lower lip, unwilling.

The day to return to the bed chamber, the time has almost reached late at night. Duan Bai Yue removed the disguise, Chu Yuan took a close look, found that his face is not the slightest difference, so said: "thick skin."

Duan Bai Yue laughed: "Why do you have such a good appetite today." The dinner was set in the hall, from the first course to the last, and also had a bowl of fish soup.

"Someone wants you; I am naturally in a good mood." Chu Yuan said, "Tomorrow I will draw up a list, you will be given to Kim Tae along with gold and silver porcelain tea leaves and jewelry."

"Goryeo is a small place, Kim Tae probably can't afford to support me." Duan Bai Yue raised his eyebrows, "Chu country is a large and diverse country, it is possible to try."

"Your Majesty." Eunuch Si Xi said outside, " King Goryeo is here again, saying that there is an important matter to see."

"In the middle of the night, what can be important." Duan Bai Yue frowned.

"I guess it's to ask for you." Chu Yuan said.

Duan Bai Yue: "......"

"Go check it out." Chu Yuan turned around and went outside.

Duan Bai Yue was bored in his heart; how could he still be missed when he was in such a state?

"Your Majesty." Kim Tae was drinking tea in the side hall.

"King Goryeo came here late at night, I wonder what is important?" Chu Yuan asked.

Kim Tae sighed deeply and then said, "Although I have already said it once in the daytime, but I really can't help it, but please give that guard to Goryeo."

Duan Bai Yue rubbed his forehead from behind the screen.

"Why does King Goryeo think so highly of him?" Chu Yuan asked without moving a word.

"It's not me, but my sister." Kim Tae stretched his hand.

Chu Yuan: "......"

Duan Bai Yue: "......"

"Emperor Chu, don't misunderstand, Ju is not going to marry." Seeing Chu Yuan's face stiffened, Kim Tae hurriedly said, "Just see that guard martial arts training is extraordinary, want to take back as a master."

Chu Yuan shook his head: "This is absolutely not possible."

Not at all? Kim Tae felt himself very anxious, the other end of the sister clamoring for someone, this end of the emperor Chu and refused to relent.

Chu Yuan said: "The person is sent by the Riyue Mountain Villa, in a few years will have to return to the Riyue Mountain Villa."

"So, it is the Shen family people." Kim Tae suddenly realized.

Chu Yuan nodded: “If King Goryeo really wants it, then you have to go to Jiangnan and ask Lord Shen yourself to see if he is willing to let people go.” At least prevaricate in front of you first.

“Time is limited, I'm afraid I can't go to Jiangnan." King Goryeo shook his head again and again.

Duan Bai Yue thought to himself, it's right if you can't go.

Chu Yuan regretfully said, “Then there is really no way.”

King Goryeo thought hard for a long time, and then his inspiration flashed again, and said, “As Emperor Chu just said, it will be a few years before he will return to Riyue Villa?”

Chu Yuan: “......”

"That's good to do." Kim Tae slapped his leg, "now temporarily give the person to Goryeo, after a year or two, I will personally send him back to Emperor Chu, I do not know if this is, okay?"

Chu Yuan continued, "No."

Kim Tae: "......"

Why?

Chu Yuan asked, "If he leaves, who will protect me?"

The corners of Duan Bai Yue's mouth raised this sentence is quite attractive.

Kim Tae was speechless.

“If the princess wants a warrior, there are many in Chu." Chu Yuan said, "Only this one, I won't let him out of the palace."

Duan Bai Yue touched his chin.

If you don't let it go, you won't be able to leave the palace. Why don't I stay tonight...?
