Josephine held a grand wedding for the two of them, and Helian Heng became the son-in-law of the Rakshasa Kingdom and the husband of Princess Angelina.
When Helian Heng first arrived in Luosha, because he was a prince of another country, the Luosha royal family members were not very friendly to him. Although they did not target him openly, they also looked down on him.
The traditional culture of Rakshasa, horsemanship, and swordsmanship are the only ways for the male warriors of Rakshasa to communicate on a daily basis.
You can challenge each other, and the winner can impose punishment on the other party.
This was the first time that Helian Heng and Fang Miao attended a gathering of the royal family of Luosha Kingdom after their marriage.
Their gathering started in the day and would last until the evening. Fang Miao brought Helian Heng with her, both of them wearing gorgeous costumes of the Rakshasa Kingdom.
Helian Heng has a tall and slender figure, and this dress looks inexplicably good on him.
He was good-looking and had a good figure. When he appeared next to Fang Miao, the noble ladies of the Rakshasa royal family were all talking about him and looking at him with frivolous eyes.
Faced with these unfriendly looks, Helian Heng would not be used to it at first, but he had chosen these paths himself, so he had to endure them.
Those noble children were very dissatisfied with Helian Heng, and they were all trying their best to attract the attention of the princess.
There are rumors inside that the empress is planning to select two more husbands for the princess from among the nobles. If they can win the favor of the princess and give birth to a princess in the future, the empress will personally train them and they may become the next empress. Wouldn't their entire family be prosperous then?
The ones who disliked Helian Heng the most were the two princes. In their opinion, Helian Heng was a prince of a foreign country and any children he would have in the future would be of impure blood and unworthy of the status of the Rakshasa royal family.
When Helian Heng attended the royal gathering for the first time, they instigated a group of noble children to target Helian Heng.
Someone challenged him to a competition of horse riding and swordsmanship in order to humiliate him.
They probably didn't know that Helian Heng was very skilled in martial arts, and to him, these were just things he got tired of playing when he was a child.
The empress chose to sit back and watch as everyone was harassing Helian Heng. Only Fang Miao felt very angry and felt disrespected.
She wanted to exercise her power as a princess and reprimand those people, but was stopped by her two younger brothers.
"Royal sister, this is the tradition of our Luosha country. Warriors can challenge anyone, and the loser needs to end the punishment issued by the victorious party. Even our mother queen will not interfere. This is not Daqing country. Even if he is the prince of Daqing, he has to follow the local customs, right?"
Fang Miao was not afraid that Helian Heng could not defeat them, but she was afraid that they would make some unreasonable demands.
"This is Ah Heng's first time attending a royal gathering, and he is not familiar with the procedures, yet you have united to challenge him. Your hostility is so strong. Are you dissatisfied with him, or with me, the princess?"
Not to mention, after Fang Miao became a princess, her aura gradually grew.
Joseline was just leisurely watching the show at the top, and didn't seem to have any intention of stopping it. She just wanted to see what else was there about the eldest prince of Daqing that was worthy of her daughter's love, besides his good looks?
If this little trouble cannot be solved, then she really needs to continue to choose a better husband for Angelina.
"You misunderstood, sister. We just wanted to have friendly exchanges with our brother-in-law and improve our relationship through this method. You are too stingy."
The eldest prince's tone was full of contempt, and he looked at Helian Heng as if he were a clown.
Fang Miao wanted to say something else, but Helian Heng stopped her and said with a smile:
"Since I can't refuse such a kind invitation, I don't want to spoil everyone's fun, so I have no choice but to accept everyone's challenge."
His tone was as lazy as ever. Facing everyone's unkindness, he seemed not to be affected at all and did not take it to heart at all.
Sorry, his sense of relaxation is innate.
"However, since according to the rules, the victorious party can propose a punishment, then I want to ask, what is the requirement that the other party must agree to?"
The translator will relay his original words to everyone on the spot.
"Of course, we can afford to play and lose. If His Highness Helian can win, we will certainly agree to any request and punishment you make."
They never thought of losing, because those who challenged them were the bravest warriors among their Rakshasa royal family and nobles.
"Well, I accept your challenge. Let me tell you your rules!"
Helian Heng moved his wrist, ready to strike.
There were three people who challenged him in horsemanship, swordplay, and bare-handed combat.
The contestants in these three events are the best in these events. They seem very confident that they can defeat Helian Heng and obtain the qualification to become the emperor's husband.
After changing into the special clothing for the event, Helian Heng started the first event, equestrianism, with the warhorse he brought from Daqing.
In Daqing, they would have a royal hunt every three years. Normally, the children of aristocratic families and royal family would pass the time by horseback hunting, archery, etc. Helian Heng had been trained in these since he was a child.
All the skills that Eunuch Lu taught him are now useful, and he also went through a bloody life in his previous life. These noble sons of the Rakshasa clan live in their comfort zone every day, enjoying the splendor and wealth. Do they think they are so powerful just because they have defeated a few people?
According to their rules, Helian Heng started to compete with them in equestrianism. They had a special riding field.
It is a bit similar to a modern stadium, a large circular square with many obstacles on the track. The requirement is to ride a horse three laps, avoiding obstacles, and then the first person to arrive and the one who encounters the least obstacles wins.
When the race started, Helian Heng leaned down and patted the neck of his beloved horse.
As the sound of the musket rang out, the competition began. As soon as Helian Heng pulled the horse, the horse neighed excitedly.
At the beginning, the contestant competing with him was very arrogant and thought he could definitely beat Helian Heng. However, Helian Heng and his horse had such a good understanding that when facing those obstacles, it would automatically avoid them without Helian Heng giving any instructions and quickly left its opponent behind.
The noble contestant, seeing that he was falling behind, lost his composure and destroyed several obstacles in succession. He was left far behind. When Helian Heng was half a lap ahead of him, the result of the race was already obvious.
Fang Miao was sitting in the stands. She was very worried at first and even stood up and held onto the fence. She was very worried, but when she saw that he was far ahead, she smiled with relief.
At the end of the race, Helian Heng won easily without hitting any obstacles.
Both princes showed incredible expressions and gnashed their teeth.
It doesn’t matter, there are still two competitions to be held, so he can just consider this one as good luck.
