Chapter 313 The Match Ended in a Draw

The little fish was disobedient; you couldn't scold or hit it, yet it could infuriate the emperor.

He asked Qiuqiu again in a deep voice, "Are you sure you want to compete with the Holy Son?"

Chiu Chiu pulled out a piece of candy from somewhere and put it in her mouth. She moved it from the left to the right, making her chubby face look even rounder and plumper, and it looked really nice to touch.

The little girl wore a pink dress today with a piece of red gauze wrapped around it, making her look as delicate and beautiful as a New Year's painting mascot.

The little girl was focused on sucking on her candy when she heard the sound and finally gave Emperor Jingming a look, "Compare."

In her sweet, childlike voice, she made a promise: "Cheep cheep, great~"

Even the most kind words can't persuade a suicidal fool. Emperor Jingming had no choice but to steel himself and agree to the request, as Jin Xiaoming was on the verge of fainting.

"I can agree, but Your Majesty must guarantee the safety of my two children from the Zhou Dynasty. The children are innocent, so I beg Your Majesty to be lenient."

Que Yu was full of confidence. The maid behind her pushed Yan Jiamu forward and pointed at Yan Jiamu as if he were an object to be casually shown to everyone. "Yan Jiamu is skilled in controlling beasts and can keep them whole."

As for whether he will survive, that remains to be seen.

Gao Jinbao stood guard behind Qiuqiu and Geng Siru, his sword at his side. He exchanged a glance with his elder brother below the stage and nodded to him.

He'll step in at the crucial moment!

"The competition begins!"

In the first round of pitch-pot, Qiuqiu wasn't even as tall as the pot. She immediately left the group chat. Geng Siru, born in Jiangnan, wasn't particularly skilled in horseback riding, archery, or pitch-pot. She planned to share the Six Arts of a Gentleman equally with Jin Xiaoming.

Chuchu patted her arm: Go for it!

Geng Siru gripped the arrow tightly, barely daring to breathe. He took a gamble, and the arrow landed in the quiver.

Eunuch Liu's narrowed eyes widened suddenly, filled with joy: "Yes!"

The courtiers breathed a sigh of relief; these two young girls weren't bad at all. Even they weren't sure they could hit the target from such a distance.

Geng Siru scored first, and Yan Jiamu didn't actually have much of an advantage; at best, it would be a draw.

Her slender, jade-like fingers contrasted sharply with her chubby little hands. "Want to try it?"

Qiuqiu shook her head vigorously, like a rattle-drum, saying, "No, no, I won't humiliate myself."

Yan Jiamu held the arrow out to her, "Want to try?"

It would be impolite for her to refuse after this handsome young man invited her repeatedly!

Chiu Chiu pretended to take the arrow, but just as she was about to try it out, Yan Jiamu grabbed her by the collar and lifted her up.

Chuchu: "Huh?"

The little leg flapped a few times in mid-air, was it regretting it?

Yan Jiamu was still a child, and such weight naturally made his hands tired.

He held the chick up to the quiver: "Throw it."

Chirping tentatively reached out, and an arrow fell into the pot.

Yan Jiamu raised his voice towards Eunuch Liu and asked, "Doesn't that count?"

Eunuch Liu was taken aback, hesitated for a moment, and then agreed, "Fine."

Everyone was stunned by this action. Que Yu sat up straight. Was this Yan Jiamu's "care"?

Ignoring the stares of others, Yan Jiamu patted Qiuqiu's head and said, "Go play."

He retreated to his previous position, thought for a moment, and then asked Qiuqiu to borrow the red veil wrapped around his body, "Can I borrow it?"

Chuchu: "Mmm!" Take everything you want!

Yan Jiamu blindfolded himself with a red veil, turned his back, and threw the arrow with a backhand motion; the arrow landed steadily in the quiver.

This move caught everyone off guard. How do we calculate this?

Eunuch Liu: "Your Majesty..."

Que Yu spoke up: "Isn't it obvious whether it's high or low, superior or inferior?"

Chiu Chiu puffed out her chubby cheeks: [Men, no wonder they wanted me to vote, they were trying to outmaneuver me! That's too much!]

Chirp is angry!

She made a face at Yan Jiamu and then hid behind Geng Siru, sulking.

So angry! So angry!

Geng Siru patted Qiuqiu's head: "It's okay, it's just that I'm not as skilled as others."

Chirp: "Next round, let's win it back!"

Having made her vow, Qiuqiu became serious. Yan Jiamu gave her an apologetic look, but Qiuqiu stubbornly refused to look at him. Everyone has a little temper sometimes!

Yan Jiamu was left standing there, completely at a loss. In the end, he stepped down from the stage and stood behind Que Yu Shi without saying another word.

In the second round, Yan Jiamu was clearly listless, looking completely dejected. As Qiuqiu passed by him, she stopped in her tracks. "Hmph, you win!"

Yan Jiamu suddenly smiled, and his silver-white hair seemed to shine.

Que Yu coldly instructed him: "Don't let her live!"

Yan Jiamu ignored her and walked right past her. The maid stared at Yan Jiamu, "Your Majesty, Yan Jiamu has ulterior motives."

Que Yu said in a low voice, "That bitch is still in my hands, he wouldn't dare."

In the second game of Gomoku, Qiuqiu was full of confidence. He sat there half-kneeling, staring intently at the board. Yan Jiamu seemed a little distracted, but finally, the little chubby hand placed on his, "Focus."

Chiu Chiu doesn't want to be the first to come because someone else asked her to!

Yan Jiamu smiled and shook his head, "No, you were already very capable."

Sharp-eyed and quick-witted.

Although she is young, she has her own strengths.

Geng Siru remained silent, staying by Qiuqiu's side. Three rounds later, the outcome was still undecided. Yan Jiamu glanced at Qiuqiu a few more times; he had only intended to be polite with her… but unexpectedly… she was quite capable.

Each game fills the board, and no winner can be determined.

By the fifth game, Eunuch Liu was squatting in front of the chessboard, watching over it. A tall, thin general also appeared from the sky on the Turkic side; the two huddled together, afraid of missing a single glance.

Then the game with the three pieces will end.

Geng Siru suddenly exhaled and slowly said, "Yan Jiamu, you lost."

Sotu retorted, "Why do you say Yan Jiamu said that! That's bullshit!"

Eunuch Liu stepped forward to stop him, saying, "General Suotu, are you perhaps a sore loser? Miss Siru must have her reasons for saying that."

"I won't listen!"

Sotu was about to launch another attack when Yan Jiamu interrupted him, saying, "I have indeed lost."

With her index finger lightly gliding across the chessboard, she thought, "All the paths are blocked; she'll win no matter where she places her piece."

Yan Jiamu stood up and looked down at the chessboard, then laughed at Qiuqiu's annoyance.

This brat even put a pile of poop on his plate to disgust him!

Really holding a grudge!

Chiu Chiu, beaming with pride, leaned against Geng Siru with her arms crossed. She even tried to stick her feet out, but was stopped by Eunuch Liu.

If Geng Siru does that again, he'll be lying on the ground!

Eunuch Liu: "The second round, the head of the Roujia County government wins!"

I'm the best because of my own abilities!

[Bang! Bang! Bang! Fireworks!]

【Hurrah hurrah hurrah! Chuchu bang~】

[Oh my god, whose baby is so amazing? It's Chuchu!]

[...]

Those who can hear the whispers of the heart: How noisy!

but……

Still very cute!

Oh my gosh, how can there be such an adorable little baby like Chuchu!

Some were happy, some were sad; Que Yu was like an iceberg, radiating coldness. Yan Jiamu had just returned when he was slapped.

"Smack!"

Meeting Qiuqiu's shocked gaze, Queyu directly picked up the whip and lashed it across Yan Jiamu's body. Bloodstains appeared on his skin, which was immediately torn and bleeding.

The stench of blood filled everyone's nostrils, but Yan Jiamu remained motionless, his expression unchanged.

The crisp sound startled Chiu Chiu, who turned around abruptly. "How could she be so mean!"

[Does losing give you the right to hit people? You bad woman! You bad woman!]

Qiuqiu was about to rush over like a little cannonball when Su Jinze grabbed both of them and whispered in her ear, "Don't go. Queyu is narrow-minded. If you go over now, Yan Jiamu will only get beaten even harder!"

The viciousness of the Queyu clan is evident to both countries. The fact that she's been able to maintain this facade for so long is astonishing.

Chirp: [So naughty!]

She swiftly shook off her older brother's hand and darted directly in front of Que Yu Shi: "I want to raise the stakes!"
