Chapter 324 Wu Zhaoli has bad intentions
As long as Your Majesty sees this, I believe Your Majesty will think twice before doing anything to her.
Feng Jiujiu, I am very powerful now.
You can no longer step on me like before.
Instead, you will be the one I step on.
"Competition?" Di Jiang looked at Wu Zhaoli dangerously, "What do you want to do?"
Wu Zhaoli said, "Some time ago, many ferocious beasts escaped from the misty forest in the South Country where no one dared to enter, and injured many families living near the forest."
"After the imperial court learned about this, they were unable to drive the beasts back into the forest. They could only relocate residents near the Misty Forest and then build iron fences around the area to prevent the beasts from expanding their range and injuring people."
"Your Majesty's solution was good and timely, and it avoided casualties."
"However, this only treats the symptoms and not the root cause, and it is also very costly and labor-intensive."
"Now, I have a way to get those beasts back into the Misty Forest."
"I would also like to use this as a topic to compete with Princess Yongle and me to see who can get those beasts back to the Misty Forest in the fastest time."
Wu Zhaoli stated the content of the competition she wanted.
"This..." Di Jiang didn't say anything, but Chu Yang felt uneasy first.
As time went by, everyone in the world knew that Wu Zhaoli, the Saintess of Mobei, was very skilled in the art of taming beasts and could control a large number of beasts. There were even rumors that Wu Zhaoli was the reincarnation of the Saintess Jiaoyan, and would become another Saintess Jiaoyan who was famous all over the world and the true king of beasts.
On the other hand, there has never been any news about Jiujiu knowing how to tame beasts, nor has there been any rumor that she is the reincarnation of the Holy Maiden Jiaoyan. She just raised a few ferocious beasts, and it seemed that others helped her tame them, as she herself could not do anything.
This kind of competition is totally unfair.
It was all Wu Zhaoli's provocation.
How could Jiujiu possibly be better than Wu Zhaoli? Isn't this just dragging Jiujiu to her death?
Di Jiang immediately stepped forward to stop him, "This is a serious matter, not a joke, you can't do it."
Chu Yang behind Di Jiang also said: "Saintess, Princess Yongle has just come to my Southern Kingdom. She is a distinguished guest of my Southern Kingdom. You will not be allowed to provoke her like this."
Wu Zhaoli did not listen to Dijiang and Chuyang, but looked at Jiujiu and said: "I just ask you, do you dare to compete with me?" As long as Feng Jiujiu is willing, what others say will be of no use, even if that person is the most honorable Emperor of the Southern Kingdom.
"Jiujiu, no." Dijiang said to Jiujiu seriously, "The beasts that ran out of the misty forest are all beasts that have lived in the depths of the forest for many years. They look strange and are not what we have today. They are likely to be left over from ancient times."
“Even if the Mermaid Saint is here, she won’t be able to subdue them and send them back to the Misty Forest.”
"If you agree to compete with her, you will almost certainly die."
"What? A ferocious beast left over from ancient times?" Jiujiu became interested and couldn't wait to see it. Apart from Duhuahua, she had never seen any strange ferocious beasts, especially those from ancient times, which interested her even more.
"Brother Dijiang, Jiujiu wants to compete." Jiujiu danced with excitement.
Di Jiang's eyebrows were twisted into the shape of the Chinese character "川": "Nine nine..."
"Brother Dijiang, you must believe in Jiujiu." Jiujiu took Dijiang's hand soothingly and whispered in his ear: "Jiujiu will definitely be able to do it."
Dijiang wanted to say something, but Jiujiu said, "Brother Dijiang, Jiujiu's Mengmeng, Big Brown Bear, and Duhuahua were all tamed by Jiujiu himself."
“It wasn’t someone else’s help.”
"After Jiujiu told you this, do you still not believe Jiujiu?"
Dijiang had never heard Jiujiu say before that she personally tamed the wild beasts she kept in captivity, so he followed everyone else and thought that it was the animal trainer from the Western Chu Palace who helped her tame them. Unexpectedly, it was Jiujiu who tamed them herself.
In this case, they can be compared.
After thinking it over, Di Jiang said, "...Okay, I promise you, I'll let you compete."
"But, just in case, I will go into the forbidden area with you." We will live together and die together. She only hoped that he could stay by her side and protect her when she needed him the most, just like she protected him.
"Brother Dijiang, that's not necessary. Jiujiu alone is enough."
Di Jiang still wanted to go with him.
The two discussed the matter.
Wu Zhaoli did not stop them and let them talk. It didn't matter whether one or two people went in. Whether the beast could be driven away or not was not determined by the number of people.
If Di Jiang followed her in, when Feng Jiujiu and Di Jiang were both surrounded by ferocious beasts and unable to escape, she could take the opportunity to save Di Jiang.
By then, she would be the savior of the new emperor of the Southern Kingdom.
And Feng Jiujiu instigated the new emperor to follow her into a dangerous place. She is definitely a beauty who brings disaster, and no one in the Southern Kingdom will accept her.
And it is only a matter of time before she becomes the empress.
The final result of the conversation between Jiujiu and Dijiang was that Jiujiu could not persuade Dijiang and had to agree to let him accompany her into the Misty Forest.
Wu Zhaoli had no objection to this, but said: "In a competition, there are winners and losers, and the loser must pay the price for it."
"How about this, the loser just gets out of the South Country?"
"how?"
I don’t know whether Wu Zhaoli didn’t leave herself a way out or she believed in her own abilities, the price she proposed was quite high!
Jiujiu didn't take it to heart at all. She waved her snow-white hands and said, "No problem."
Di Jiang: That’s no problem. At worst, he…he can think of a way to become a live-in son-in-law.
Emperor Zhaoning should not lack him for food!
There should be no shortage.
Di Jiang thought about this, coughed a few times, and said: "Now that we have decided, let's go to the Misty Forest."
"Chuyang, get going."
A group of people went to the Misty Forest and started their journey to drive the beasts back to the Misty Forest.
Many people had heard about it and had come specially to watch the fun, including many ministers in the court and noble ladies.
There were a lot of people, all camping a mile away from the iron fence. It was quite lively, and the scale was similar to the usual hunting organized by the royal family.
Jiujiu saw Xu Wenyuan, and before the competition started, she pulled Nan Yuanxiang to talk to Xu Wenyuan, not looking nervous at all.
"Ignorance is truly fearless." After seeing this, Wu Zhaoli said sarcastically and began to prepare to enter the misty forest.
This time, the amount of banned drugs she took was three times the amount she had taken in Mobei. After taking the drugs, she needed some time to relieve the side effects of the drugs.
She declined everyone who came to see her and stayed alone in the tent, suffering and waiting for the physical pain to pass.
Half an hour later, it was finally over. Because of the intense pain, her clothes were soaked with sweat and her legs were a little weak when she walked, but she could hold on.
She murmured, "Three days. Within three days, I will be able to control those beasts to return to the Misty Forest and defeat Feng Jiujiu."
