When the King of Longxi heard this, his eyes went dark and he cursed in his heart, "Idiot, what an idiot!"
Playing polo is just a competition, and it doesn't matter if you lose, but he is now acting like a madman who has lost his mind.
How did this make the people present view him?
The looks around were full of disgust, astonishment, and disdain, as if they were saying, "This is the son of the King of Longxi?"
The King of Longxi was so angry that he died.
This rebellious son has brought shame upon me!
But now I can’t stop the game, I can only watch my rebellious son continue to embarrass himself.
At this moment, everyone saw Wei Yian riding his horse towards Marquis Anguo, then whipping the horse, causing it to gallop wildly.
"What is he doing?"
"Crazy?!"
"Can't afford to lose so you just sneak attack?"
Wei Yian was humiliated as he kept losing and didn't score a single goal. In a fit of rage, he went to take revenge on He Zheng.
He always acted impulsively like this, but today, he chose the wrong place.
Doing this in public is despicable, and it's just like having revenge and arbitrary behavior carved on your face.
Xie Qingyao's brows twitched.
The next moment, He Zheng reined in the horse and tamed the out-of-control horse with a deep look in his eyes.
Emperor Jinde looked unhappy and said in a deep voice, "That's outrageous."
The King of Longxi immediately defended his son, saying, "Your Majesty, please calm down. My son didn't do it on purpose. He was just playing a joke on the Marquis of Anguo in the heat of the moment."
"How can you take a joke seriously?"
"A joke?" Emperor Jinde spoke in a calm tone, but there was an invisible sense of oppression on his body.
The King of Longxi could only lower his posture, after all, it was indeed Wei Yian who did something wrong.
Shangjing is not Longxi, and he, the local emperor, is still suppressed by Emperor Jinde.
However, the King of Longxi was also very unhappy. Emperor Jinde actually made a fuss about a minister and embarrassed him. It was really an exaggeration.
Wei Yian also realized that he had lost control, but fortunately no major disaster had occurred.
He rode over with a smile on his face, "I was just joking with the Marquis of Anguo, don't be surprised."
Fuck you.
Xie Qingyao grabbed the wine jug on the table and was about to throw it over, but just as she raised her hand.
"call out--"
The sound of arrow feathers cutting through the air.
"Bang!" The King of Longxi was so shocked that he flipped the table over. "Yi'an!"
He Zheng held a bow and arrow and shot an arrow through the crown on Wei Yian's head. In an instant, the crown was shattered into pieces and Wei Yian's hair was disheveled.
He was so frightened that he fell off his horse and landed on the ground.
The moment He Zheng's arrow flew towards him, he thought he was going to die, and his heart was chilled to freezing point.
A feeling of fear gripped my heart.
Without waiting for Wei Yian to stand up, He Zheng moved his finger and shot the second arrow.
This time it aimed at Wei Yian's crotch.
"ah!"
"what are you up to?"
"Stop! Stop it now!"
Wei Yian got up in a panic and ran to the King of Longxi to ask his father for help.
"Father, save me!"
The King of Longxi felt heartbroken when he saw Wei Yian, who was disheveled and dirty.
He protected Wei Yian behind him, and asked with a very ugly face: "Marquis Anguo, what are you doing?!"
He Zheng sat on his horse, his expression full of interest. He said in a calm voice, "I was just joking with your son. King Longxi, please don't take it seriously."
The expression of King Longxi changed subtly.
This was not what he said just now. Marquis Anguo used his words to stop him.
Just a joke, just a joke.
If Wei Yian had not reacted quickly, the second arrow would have killed him and left him without any descendants.
Marquis Anguo is so arrogant and vicious!
Emperor Jinde waved his hand and said with a smile, "Why is the King of Longxi so angry? It's just a small quarrel between them."
"Come, take Master Wei down to change clothes."
Emperor Jinde settled the matter with just one sentence. No matter how unwilling the King of Longxi was, he could not say anything and was filled with anger.
Wei Yian's legs were still weak, and he left with gritted teeth.
This little episode ended with Wei Yian in a miserable state.
"Serves you right." Princess Yongle sneered.
The polo match continued, and when Wei Yian came back, he happened to see He Zheng taking the lead.
He Zheng looked at him, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, as if in silent mockery.
Wei Yian was furious and smashed the wine glass as soon as he sat down.
Damn it!
Damn Marquis Anguo.
Make him a laughing stock.
After the polo match, the banquet officially began with the sound of stringed instruments and the clinking of glasses.
After dinner, King Longxi thought about the purpose of his return to the capital.
He left his seat and walked to the center of the hall, bowing to Emperor Jinde.
"Your Majesty, my son has reached marriageable age. I would like to arrange a marriage for him. I hope Your Majesty will grant my blessing."
"Oh?" Emperor Jinde put down his wine glass, leaned forward slightly, and asked, "Which girl did the Prince of Longxi take a fancy to? Feel free to tell me."
The King of Longxi signaled Wei Yian with his eyes.
Wei Yian immediately stood up and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, I wish to marry Miss Wen San from the Prime Minister's family."
"I fell in love with Miss Wen San at first sight, and I will marry her in this life."
"I hope Your Majesty will fulfill my sincere love and grant us a marriage!"
What a love at first sight, I will marry her.
If Wen Xuechun had not witnessed Wei Yian's incompetent and angry face today, he would have believed it.
She pursed her lips and turned her gaze to her grandfather, Prime Minister Wen.
She has no say in matters of marriage; it all depends on her grandfather's decision.
All the civil and military officials were shocked.
This... they are not stupid. It is obvious that the second son of King Longxi asked to marry the granddaughter of the Prime Minister in order to win over the Prime Minister.
Emperor Jinde pondered for a moment and asked, "Prime Minister Wen, what do you mean?"
Prime Minister Wen stood up and said, "I am not a pedantic person. Since Prince Wei likes my granddaughter, I think they should get along with each other."
"If my granddaughter feels that they are both good match, then I will ask Your Majesty to grant them a marriage and complete their destiny."
This statement was flawless. It was neither a direct rejection nor an immediate agreement. The attitude was vague, leaving a lot of room for maneuver.
Xie Qingyao grabbed He Zheng's sleeve and turned to him, "Hasn't Prime Minister Wen always been neutral? Why didn't he refuse?"
"It's impossible for him not to see the intention of the King of Longxi, which is to form a marriage and win over the Wen family."
He Zheng found her confused look really cute.
He whispered in her ear.
"Prime Minister Wen is old and will abdicate in a few years. He wants to take a gamble before abdicating to help the Wen family reach a higher level of prosperity."
"He's clearly shaken."
"Your Majesty wanted to make Miss Wen the Crown Princess, but the Queen insisted on having the Situ family's daughter."
"Minister Wen can only hedge his bets and force His Majesty to make a decision. Either let his granddaughter become the Crown Princess, or he will marry her to Wei Yian."
"If I win the bet, Miss Wen San will be the Crown Princess. If I lose the bet, it won't be too bad."
Wen Huaitang's move was intended to squeeze out the daughter of the Situ family and promote Wen Xuechun to the position of Crown Princess.
Xie Qingyao's eyelashes trembled, "My Lord, what do you think His Majesty will do?"
He Zheng moved closer, his breath gushing out, "Your Majesty..."
