Although Jiang Jingran didn't want to admit that he was actually suppressed by a concubine's daughter who was inferior to him in every way, the fact was that.
Jiang Jingyu's seat was in front of him.
Everything this bitch has is all thanks to her!
If she married into the General's Mansion, what would Jiang Jingyu, that bitch, have to do with her? !
But what Jiang Jingran didn’t know was that if she married into the general’s mansion, she would not have a seat at all today!
"Your Majesty has arrived—"
"The Queen has arrived—"
After everyone was seated, the emperor and empress appeared on the Cuju field, followed closely by several concubines of higher rank in the harem.
"Your son pays homage to the Emperor, Father, and the Empress Dowager!"
"I, your humble servant, pay my respects to Your Majesty and the Empress. Long live Your Majesty, and live the Empress a thousand years!"
Everyone stood up and knelt on the ground, paying their respects to the emperor and empress who were sitting on the high throne.
"Everyone, get up! Today is the Cuju banquet. You don't have to refuse any more. Today, I and all of you will not leave until we are drunk!"
The emperor lowered his eyes to look at the people kneeling on the Cuju field, and there was a hint of pleasure in his voice.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
After everyone returned to their seats, the emperor stroked his beard, looked at his family members who came to the banquet on his lower right, and smiled heartily.
"Today is the Cuju Banquet. Show us your true skills! Let me see the heroic spirit of our Bei Ming children!"
"Your Majesty, I obey your command!"
Everyone clasped their fists and looked at the emperor on the high throne, with a hint of eagerness in their eyes.
"Hahaha, great! To make the Cuju Banquet more interesting, this year's Cuju Banquet will have both men and women in the same group, and the teams will be formed by drawing lots. Whoever wins the first place at the Cuju Banquet will be given the Xiaoshuang Lie horse that was sent as tribute from the Western Regions!"
The emperor flicked his sleeves slightly, and everyone subconsciously looked in the direction of his finger, and suddenly their eyes widened!
Xiao Shuang Liema, it's Xiao Shuang Liema!!
They had long heard that the Western Regions had presented a tribute of a top-quality Xiaoshuang Lie horse, but they never imagined that His Majesty would use the Xiaoshuang Lie horse as a prize for the Cuju Banquet!
The emperor was very satisfied with the expressions of the crowd. He didn't believe that with Xiaoshuang Liema as a prize, these children would dare to hold back in front of him!
"Okay, that's all I have to say, let's get started."
As soon as he finished speaking, two young eunuchs moved a table and placed it in front of everyone.
"There are two different colored bamboo sticks in the bamboo tube. Those who draw the same color will form a group. Please draw your lot in turn."
After the young eunuch finished speaking, he stepped aside. The contestants stood up and lined up to walk towards the bamboo tube.
The first place among men is Fu Yanci, and the first place among women is Jiang Jingyu.
The two of them took out a bamboo stick from the bamboo tube together, revealing the color of the bottom. The bamboo sticks in their hands were both red.
Jiang Jingyu raised her eyebrows and turned to walk towards the red team with Fu Yanci.
The others took turns drawing bamboo sticks and standing in their respective queues according to the color of the bottom of the sticks.
The contestants were quickly divided into two teams, blue and red, and stood under the platform.
After everyone had drawn their lots, several participating princes on the platform showed the bamboo sticks in their hands and flew down.
The second prince, the fifth prince and the seventh prince had red tickets and stood on Jiang Jingyu's team, while the third prince, the fourth prince and the sixth prince had blue tickets and stood on Jiang Jingran's team.
After everyone stood in their own team, the sound of drums and gongs sounded behind them.
Everyone clasped their fists towards the emperor who was sitting on the high throne. The emperor waved his hand, and then everyone turned and walked towards the Cuju field.
The two teams dispersed and each stayed in their own position. They stared at the Cuju in the middle, waiting for the drum to sound and then rushed forward to grab it!
“Dongdongdong——”
Almost at the same time, as soon as the drum sounded, the two teams reacted quickly and ran towards Cuju!
It is a rule that light skills and internal force are not allowed on the Cuju field.
Just as the third prince was about to grab the Cuju, a figure appeared who was one step faster than him!
Fu Yanci stepped on the Cuju ball, turned around and passed it to the person behind him.
The fifth prince was quick-witted and swift-footed. He hooked the flying Cuju ball with his feet. He ran forward while kicking the ball, waiting for the right moment to strike.
The Third Prince and others on the opposite side bent their waists slightly in a defensive posture, their eyes fixed on the Cuju under the Fifth Prince's feet.
The fifth prince kicked the Cuju ball under his feet with smooth movements. Just when the third prince and others on the opposite side were getting nervous, he suddenly made a feint and passed the Cuju ball to Fu Yanci.
Fu Yanci aimed at the opponent's goal and kicked the Cuju ball towards it with great force!
A Cuju ball with a biting breath flew past everyone's eyes. By the time the goalkeeper of the blue team reacted and tried to stop it, the Cuju ball had already passed through the goal.
Boom boom boom——
The drums sounded again.
The red team scores one point.
The Cuju was placed between the two teams again.
As the main force of the blue team, the third prince was extremely quick this time. He put the Cuju under his feet first and turned around to kick it towards the person behind him.
The Cuju passed from everyone's feet one after another, and finally fell to Jiang Jingran's feet. Jiang Jingran controlled the Cuju and kicked it towards the opponent's goal without hesitation!
Just as the ball was about to fly through the crowd and into the goal, Jiang Jingyu appeared out of nowhere and steadily stopped the ball with his feet.
The Fifth Prince, who was standing beside Fu Yanci, raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but joked, "General Zhengbei, your little lady is quite good!"
When Jiang Jingran saw that it was Jiang Jingyu who stopped Cuju, his whole face turned blue!
Bitch!
How dare you stop her from kicking the Cuju? You're looking for death!
Jiang Jingyu naturally noticed Jiang Jingran's murderous expression. She curled her lips, controlled the Cuju and ran forward, kicking it towards the opposite goal with lightning speed!
