C208 First War
Chu Xiao stood by Wang Xiaojian's side. Seemingly having sensed Wang Xiaojian's change, he asked aloud, "Brother-in-law, what happened that time, was there a hidden story?"
Many people knew about the engagement between, the number one heaven chosen of Xia Country, and Princess Ying Wen.
Chu Xiao was no exception.
It was rumored that Wang Xiaojian had offended the princess and thus their engagement was cancelled.
However, looking at it now, there must have been a mistake in the rumors back then. Otherwise, Wang Xiaojian wouldn't have such a reaction.
The truth of the matter must have been different from the rumors.
Wang Xiaojian was startled, he did not expect Chu Xiao to say such a thing.
Then he realized that he had lost his composure.
Wang Xiaojian took a deep breath. He was Wang Xiaojian, but he was no longer the original Wang Xiaojian.
It was true that he had a grudge with Princess Zhaoyang Ying Wen, but a slut was not worth it for him to lose his composure.
Since he was here, he would go with his plan and take revenge.
At that time, the one who would lose his composure would be Ying Wen, not him.
Presumably, once he becomes Prince Consort, Ying Wen would definitely be shocked.
Thinking about it, Wang Xiaojian smiled coolly.
He readjusted his mood, and his face broke into a signature smile.
He opened his mouth, looked at Chu Xiao, and smiled: "Xiao, there is indeed a secret behind this, and the story within is also very interesting. Later, I will tell you."
"Yes."
Chu Xiao nodded, and did not inquire further.
He was also very happy that Wang Xiaojian was able to say such words to him.
Chu Xiao turned to Wang Xiaojian and said, "Brother-in-law. No matter what, I will support you. "
Wang Xiaojian looked at Chu Xiao's serious expression and laughed: "Alright, Xiao. It was not in vain that I pampered you. "
On the first day of Groom Contest, the princess personally arrived.
The atmosphere of the venue was extremely lively. There were cheers for the princess' thousand years everywhere.
Even the heaven's pride level experts of Son-in-law Mansion were looking at the princess with incomparably adoring gazes.
Hu Rui looked at Ying Wen, his handsome face revealing a smile, as though he was determined to win, as though Ying Wen was his.
The eyes of the core disciples of the Thunder Knife Sect, Tian Hailiang, the Zhao Family Second Young Master s, the Pure Yang Sect Third Young Master s, and the Zhu Family Eldest Young Master s, were all burning with passion.
They all knew that once they became the champion of the Groom Search Competition, they would be able to become a Prince Consort, and become a man of the Third Princess!
And since the First Prince had not returned for many years, and since Second Prince passed away a few years ago, as long as one became a man of Third Princess, he would definitely reach the pinnacle of his life!
Ying Wen sat on the Guest Seat.
Her beautiful face had an air of superiority. Her long, narrow eyes scanned the surroundings, looking extremely fierce.
When Wang Xiaojian's hateful gaze swept over her, she seemed to have sensed something and turned to look in the direction of the battle area.
However, she did not discover the source of her gaze.
A trace of doubt appeared on her face, followed by a frown.
Gui Yuan stood beside Ying Wen and bowed: "Princess, what's wrong?"
Ying Wen looked at Gui Yuan, shook his head, and said: "Eunuch Gui, I don't have anything. Did you manage to track down the murderer who set the fire last night? "
Hearing that, Gui Yuan's face darkened, and said: "Princess, that person is extremely cunning. It was as if he had vanished into thin air after the great fire, and this old servant had yet to find him. However, this old servant had found some clues about the silver medal bodyguard who was killed. Perhaps we can find the murderer through these clues. "
Ying Wen's expression was ice-cold as she said: "Eunuch Gui, this matter concerns our royal family's prestige, and Royal Father values it a lot. I hope you catch the killer as soon as possible. Otherwise, your position as a plant would be seriously affected. "
"Yes sir!"
Gui Yuan nodded his head. This was the Third Princess, but when he faced her, he felt pressure that was not inferior to that of the Emperor's.
The matter of the Mansion of Eastern Deport Guard last night had caused him to be extremely anxious.
Although he did not manage to catch the killer, he was lucky to find some clues.
Mansion of Eastern Deport Guard was best at tracking and capturing people, and he hoped to be able to catch the culprit through this.
"Princess, now this old servant will announce the start of the competition."
Ying Wen opened her mouth and lightly said: "Mn! "Let's begin."
Gui Yuan nodded lightly and walked forward.
Facing the participating heaven's pride experts and the tens of thousands of spectators, he first stated that he would be blessed by the heavens, the princess would personally come, and so on. Then, he began to read out the rules of the competition.
Just as Wang Xiaojian understood, the first day of today's competition was held simultaneously in all four directions.
Each ring would decide the top two, and then tomorrow's quarterfinals would begin.
Today's match was very important.
"Everyone is a heaven's pride level expert of my Xia Country, a future pillar. In principle, I hope everyone will keep to the point …"
Gui Yuan stressed the rules of the competition once again.
Following which, he raised the gavel in his hand, and with a heavy tap on the gong, he announced loudly. "We declare that Groom Contest will now begin!"
"Walla ~"
The moment Gui Yuan announced the start of the competition, the entire competition grounds started to boil.
Wang Xiaojian laughed coldly after hearing this. Then, he looked at Hu Rui.
Gui Yuan actually said that, in principle, if he kept to the point, the subtext meant that it was possible for him to accidentally kill someone.
Seems like Hu Rui already knew the rules of the competition, which was why he told him that he would kill him on the stage.
The heaven's pride level experts in the waiting area were all heading towards their arenas.
On Wang Xiaojian's identity plate was written "Ding Eleven", which meant that he was in Stage D.
Chu Xiao and Chu Xiaodong were in Group A and B respectively.
Stage D was in the west, right in front of Daji and her audience.2
After separating with the two, Wang Xiaojian followed the other group D onwards.
Wang Xiaojian walked to the bottom of Group D's stage, and the people at the front, had already started their battle.
He looked around and found that Group D was filled with heaven's pride experts from the Son-in-law Mansion.
Following that, he was shocked to discover that Zhao Huoming and Zhao Huoming were in the same group as him.
When he looked over, the two were whispering to each other.
Wang Xiaojian laughed, walked over and patted each of their shoulders, and said: "You two are in the same group as me?"
Zhao Huoming, Tian Hailiang turned over.
Seeing Wang Xiaojian, Tian Hailiang was startled, but immediately he revealed a sinister smile.
Amongst all the people present in the Son-in-law Mansion, he hated Wang Xiaojian the most. He wished for nothing more than for Wang Xiaojian to die in the arena.
Since they were on the same stage now, there was going to be a chance for revenge. A chance for revenge!
Zhao Huoming glanced at Wang Xiaojian, his face dark, and said: "Lee Bai, don't pat my shoulders. We aren't that familiar!"
Wang Xiaojian laughed, "Brother Zhao, don't say that. At least we all live under the same roof, how can we not be familiar with each other? You even gave me two thousand gold, I don't even have time to thank you. "
When he was at Son-in-law Mansion, he lost to Wang Xiaojian in a wager, and lost two thousand gold in the end.
He had always been brooding over this matter.
But Wang Xiaojian was too busy to even mention that.
Zhao Huoming said with a cold face: "Lee Bai, don't be arrogant. I'm not afraid to tell you that someone has arranged for me to be in the same group as you. This time, I will definitely break your legs! to avenge myself that day! "
