“I am the regent of a nation, Princess Jiarou, you have quite the nerve to talk like that.”
The regent looked solemn, exuding an innate aura of dominance.
Young Master Jiarou touched his fingernails and said casually, "I'll ask you, does the Regent dare to gamble?"
The Holy Emperor was about to speak when the Regent beat him to it.
"If Princess Jiarou loses, she shall return all the gold to the Holy Kingdom. I will also ask you to burn three sticks of incense, shout to heaven and earth that you are a dog, bark three times like a dog, and then kneel before your brother, the Emperor, according to the Holy Kingdom's etiquette."
Princess Jiarou patted the sparrow in her arms as if she had heard a big joke.
"Black Sparrow, will you lose?"
The crow immediately shook its head.
"Hahaha, did you hear that? Regent, my 'Black Sparrow' says it won't lose."
"I'm talking to you about your defeat; my patience is running out!"
For some reason, the Regent had a lot of confidence in Lin Wanwan.
Even if Wanwan loses, he can still cheat.
At worst, we can turn Xuan Yue Kingdom into a county of the Holy Kingdom!
Princess Jiarou loved his unruly demeanor, and a confident smile curled at the corner of her lips.
"If I lose... I will not only grant your terms, but also add... one hundred taels of gold!"
“Alright!” the Regent readily agreed.
He turned to look at the Holy Emperor on the throne.
But the Holy Emperor had a dark expression on his face.
How dare you, rebellious younger brother, marry into the Xuan Yue Kingdom?
Regent: Your Majesty, I can still cheat!
Princess Jiarou immediately stood up. "I will go change my clothes before we begin."
The Holy Emperor gritted his teeth and waved his hand.
The other envoys also stood up and began preparations.
Lin Wanwan blinked her big, dark eyes.
Want to marry a scumbag father?
[A father can only belong to a mother!]
The Regent suppressed his fierce aura and smiled as he ruffled Lin Wanwan's hair.
"Wanwan, don't worry, I was just lying to her. I will only love your mother in this lifetime."
"Even if I lose, I can cheat. At worst, I'll just quit being the regent."
The little guy clapped his hands happily after hearing this.
"Yay!"
The second prince walked to Lin Wanwan's side, squatted down, and helped her up.
"Wanwan, are you really sure?"
"How about I do it?"
I don't know if I, now in a mortal body, still have spiritual roots.
Lin Wanwan pinched the Second Prince.
"Mud, down!"
[Next game!]
The Regent Prince took Lin Wanwan's words as a joke.
They were already prepared to cheat; they couldn't afford to lose face!
Soon, everyone headed out of the Golden Palace.
Outside the hall, everything was ready, with a large arena in the middle for the spiritual root people to compete.
Not far from the arena, there was a huge sacrificial altar, filled with offerings, demonstrating reverence and piety towards the gods.
Which deity is being worshipped here?
Lin Wanwan muttered to herself, her eyes darting towards the food on the offering table, but the Second Prince carried her away.
One by one, everyone went to the sacrificial altar to light incense and kneel in worship, and then lined up in an orderly manner in front of the arena.
Outside the arena, a circle of tables and chairs was set up for people to watch and rest.
The competition was hosted by Elder Kang, a senior member of the collateral branch of the Xiao family. He had participated in the Divine Summoning Conference three times and was extremely familiar with it.
To prevent the Holy Kingdom from cheating, each country sent one person to participate in the judging.
Prince Kang stood in the arena and shouted loudly:
"Please come up and draw lots in an orderly manner, participants from all countries."
Yao Qianshu, along with several princes, gathered around Lin Wanwan, the little one happily drinking from her milk jug.
Seeing her like this, the others seemed to think there was no need to ask any more questions.
The result is self-evident.
We're definitely going to lose.
"Wanwan, you shouldn't go up there. Let someone else take your place," Yao Qianshu said, feeling sorry for the Regent for a second.
If she really marries into the Xuan Yue Kingdom, who will suppress her father?
I mentioned last time that I sent his father to the border!
This hasn't been fulfilled yet.
"Yes, Wanwan, I think you'd better not go."
After the Seventh Prince used the chickens raised by Lin Wanwan to light up the Purple Spirit Pearl, his mother's rank also rose by a leap.
She went from being a lowly concubine to a noble consort.
Now, when he looks at Lin Wanwan, there is a hint of admiration in his eyes.
When it comes to raising chickens, no one can beat Lin Wanwan.
But is it to summon gods?
Let's forget about it.
Lin Wanwan gulped down her milk, looking utterly silly.
Upon seeing this, the Seventh Prince shook his head.
It's over.
The Imperial Uncle is going to marry!
"win."
"That's good." Lin Wanwan reached out and patted the Seventh Prince, looking like a master comforting her disciple.
Only the Second Prince knew that he believed half of what Lin Wanwan said.
There's still half a point left... because she's too small.
Soon, everyone had finished drawing lots.
"I am number five."
"I am number nine."
"I'm actually number one?"
Princess Jiarou stood not far away, opened her lot, glanced at the number, and a hint of smugness flashed in her eyes.
If Lin Wanwan wants to compete with herself, then she has to compete with others; only by winning can she have her turn.
She couldn't help but look at the Regent again.
She had been thinking about this man for three years.
Three years ago, she secretly ran away from the border and met the Regent for the first time. On the battlefield, he was unruly and majestic, and with his own strength, he took the enemy's head from thousands of soldiers.
None of the male favorites in her princess's residence possessed even half the charm of the regent.
With that one glance, she made up her mind: this man was hers!
