The biggest villain? This skinny little brat?
Emperor Jing didn't believe it at all, but he did believe that Jing Le knew about the future.
When Jing Jiayue saw the thin boy standing in front of her, she felt that he was very dangerous.
Glancing at Jing Le beside Emperor Jing, he hatched a plan. With a smile, he spoke first before Duan Feibai could open his mouth.
“Every member of our Dayong royal family is exceptionally talented in literature. I, the princess, have already stolen the limelight today, which is truly inappropriate. The challenges to come will be left to my other brothers and sisters.”
There's nothing wrong with Jing Jiayue saying that, after all, she just won an iron mine for Dayong, so it's only right that she needs to rest now.
Jing Le, seeing this, couldn't help but complain: "At least you have some self-awareness, knowing you've stolen the spotlight. However, the way you're saying it makes me feel like there's a conspiracy."
Jing Le's intuition was indeed accurate. Jing Jiayue changed the subject and looked back at Jing Le.
“I recommend Anle to go first. You’re still young, so it’s okay if you lose. Just consider it an opportunity to learn something.”
These words were spoken with great care, as if he genuinely wanted to broaden his sister's horizons.
Because this is the last match, it doesn't matter whether we win or lose, since the iron ore mines in the South have already been lost to them anyway.
"OK."
[I knew the female lead had ulterior motives; this is exactly what I wanted.]
Jing Le was still thinking about how to get close to Duan Feibai to complete the mission, and now the opportunity has come.
Emperor Jing's slightly furrowed brows relaxed upon hearing that Jing Le was willing, but his dislike for Jing Jiayue increased even more.
He thought to himself: Soon, the people who went out should be back tonight. The result I want will be here soon, and then...
"Approved."
You have agreed, but the envoy from the Southern Kingdom froze for a moment before nodding to Duan Feibai.
It's a pity that Princess Jiayue isn't the one, but Princess Anle is fine too. Just now, I saw that Emperor Jing doted on her even more than Princess Jiayue.
Thinking about it that way, it's not a bad deal.
Apart from the Emperor, the Imperial Concubine, the Third Prince, and the Ninth Prince, everyone else in the Dayong court was indifferent and had no affection for this newly adopted goddaughter of the Emperor.
On the contrary, they still felt that Jing Le had stolen Princess Jia Yue's favor.
"She's just a princess with no blood relation. How can she compare to Princess Jiayue? Princess Jiayue is kind enough to have this opportunity."
"Yeah, I heard she's always lived in a temple. If they let her go on stage, maybe they'll have a chanting contest, hahaha..."
"Master Liaowu is very mysterious and powerful in the Dayong Dynasty. Perhaps Princess Anle could have a martial arts contest with him..."
Jing Le heard everyone's mocking laughter clearly, but she didn't react at all. To her, these people were just a group of outsiders, so why should she care?
He didn't care, but others did. The Emperor, the Imperial Concubine, the Third Prince, and the Ninth Prince at the head of the table were all furious.
The group made a mental note of those who had spoken the most offensively, determined to teach them a lesson when the opportunity arose.
What do you want to compete with me in?
Jing Le asked Duan Feibai, who was not far away, but her eyes were actually sizing him up.
Wow, this villain is so beautiful! No wonder she kept her head down. She's so young and already so gorgeous; if she runs into bad guys, she'll be in for a rough time.
Duan Feibai, who was opposite him, froze for a moment, then slowly raised his eyes and looked at Jing Le, who was a head shorter than him.
Is it her?
The voice in my head just now was hers, wasn't it? The voice was the same.
[Hehe, the beauty is looking at me! Oh dear, such a beautiful woman cannot be allowed to be bullied. Don't worry, I will definitely save you, and your sister too. I just heard what happened...]
Duan Feibai saw that Jing Le's mouth was not moving, but her inner thoughts were being sent out in a frantic and somewhat noisy manner, though the words inside were well-intentioned.
A slight warmth touched my heart.
He, Duan Feibai, is a reincarnated person and the crown prince of the Duan Kingdom. Now the Duan Kingdom has been captured by the Southern Kingdom, and the entire royal family has become prisoners.
His mother couldn't bear it and committed suicide, leaving him and his sister to eke out a living.
In her previous life, she was killed by a body-snatcher. Unexpectedly, when she opened her eyes, she returned to when she was five years old, before everything had begun.
My only sister hasn't died from humiliation yet, and I still have time.
He also saw that person from his past life, but it was completely different. That person probably hasn't possessed him yet, and everything hasn't even begun. That's good.
But this Princess Anle in front of me didn't appear in my previous life. Could it be that I've affected the development of some things?
"Either is fine, whatever the princess says."
Duan Feibai is no longer the naive child he once was; how could he possibly obey the messenger's words?
"Duan Feibai!"
The envoy from the South knew something was wrong as soon as he heard this, and his tone was somewhat fierce.
However, Duan Feibai ignored them all.
"Then let's have a duel. I've studied martial arts, you know."
Seeing the messenger's unpleasant expression, Jing Le recalled his earlier words and knew that he wanted Duan Feibai to deal with him, or rather, kill him, so he could vent his anger.
They can just drag Duan Feibai out to take the blame, and they'll be fine.
That's quite a scheme.
However, how could I possibly let you have your way?
"You really want to fight?"
"Yes, let's begin."
After confirming it again, Duan Feibai didn't say anything more.
The others found it amusing when they heard that Jing Le wanted to have a martial arts contest.
"Hahaha, does she really think that just because she's been following Master Wu for a few years, she's some kind of expert?"
"It doesn't matter if they're not experts. Anyway, the other person is just a skinny kid. Maybe they'll just pull each other along, like in a competition."
