Chapter 237: Vulnerable

Be careful what you say, you will know after the competition.

Under Chu Qinghuang's insistence that he could not refuse, Qi Yun could no longer shirk, so he had no choice but to get up and walk out, and start a less formal duel with Qi Ling.

Since there is a competition, it is natural that there must be a fair judgment by someone with high status.

So the emperor and the ministers went out together to witness the brothers' military contest.

When he walked to the open space outside Yuqian Palace and stood there, Qi Ling had a calm expression and a calm demeanor, looking confident. Qi Yun's expression was tense, and his eyes were fixed on Qi Ling, with warning and threat in his eyes.

You are not allowed to use sharp weapons without permission in front of the king, so soon someone from the palace brought two bamboo swords, which were exactly the same length and size. No one took advantage of the other.

Chu Qinghuang stood aside with his hands behind his hands, his eyebrows cold and distant, and he stared expressionlessly at the two people who were about to face off not far away.

A tense and depressing atmosphere brewed for a while.

A young man whispered behind him: "I guess someone is going to make a joke soon."

"What do you say?" Wen Zhan turned his head and looked at Hong Yu.

Hong Yu said: "Not much."

Wen Zhan: "..."

The emperor turned his head and looked at the people behind Chu Qinghuang. The more he looked, the more he felt that these servants were so handsome, and they didn't have the rosy aura of the servants. It comes out with a clean temperament.

Qinghuang's vision was indeed impeccable and perfect.

"Watch the move!"

Qi Yun slashed at Qi Ling with his bamboo sword without warning. He shouted coldly and instantly drew the emperor's attention back.

Several officials present were all civil servants, and the emperor had only practiced for a few days in his youth to strengthen his body, and was not proficient in martial arts. But at this time, just looking at the postures of the two people, he already had a rough judgment in his mind.

As expected, Qi Ling, who was calm and composed, suddenly raised his hand to fight back when Qi Yun was about to hit the door. His movements were very fast, as if he took action in just an instant, and then heard a sound.

Qi Yun's mouth went numb, and the bamboo sword in his hand was shaken and flew out.

With a clang, the sound of the bamboo sword hitting the ground was particularly clear.

Time seemed to suddenly stop at this moment, Qi Yun's face suddenly turned white and blue, wonderfully.

King Zhenbei's face was covered with frost.

The emperor frowned, obviously not expecting the legitimate son of the Qi family to be so vulnerable. Is this what King Zhenbei meant by "carefully teaching him martial arts and military skills"?

"Didn't King Zhenbei say that Qi Yun's martial arts and military tactics were taught by you personally and were much better than Qi Ling?" Chu Qinghuang turned to look at King Zhenbei, her eyebrows were cold and her voice was bone-chilling, "Every move can be His weapons were shot down before he could pass by. How can he be expected to protect his family and his country? Isn't it possible that the enemy invaded the imperial city and Mr. Qi was still awake?"

A look of embarrassment flashed across King Zhenbei's face, and he was about to explain when he heard Hong Yu say: "Isn't this considered bullying the king?"

As he finished speaking, there seemed to be a cold current passing through the air.

With the label of "deceiving the emperor" being slapped on, the faces of Zhenbei Prince and his son both changed, and they knelt down subconsciously.

"Your Majesty is aware of this!" King Zhenbei said, "Qi Yun is really unwell today. I dare not fool your Majesty."

"I have heard that the concubine of the King of Zhenbei is superior to his legitimate son in martial arts and military skills. Unfortunately, he was born as a concubine and has a low status in the family. He is suppressed by his legitimate son everywhere. Even entering the backyard of this palace was caused by someone's plot." Chu. Qinghuang looked at his father and son with cold eyes. After hearing these words, Qi Yun's face turned pale, "Qi Yun has admitted today that his skills are inferior to others. I can ask my father to give him a lighter sentence for deceiving the king. Otherwise, , just choose a time to compete again some other time. If we lose again then, I’m afraid Zhenbei King will not be able to justify it. "

The legitimate son suppresses the concubine?

The emperor's face darkened, and his voice was majestic and full of dissatisfaction: "Although there are differences between concubines and concubines, and one should not mess around with superiority or inferiority, a general always serves others with his ability. Especially the King of Zhenbei is responsible for guarding Mianbei, so he should pay more attention to his ability." "

King Zhenbei's expression suddenly changed, and his heart felt like ice: "I know the crime."

The emperor looked at the father and son, his mind spinning a thousand times, and after a moment, he said coldly: "Since the King of Zhenbei is here, I won't go back for the time being. I need to summon the military generals in the court to deal with the troops in the Mianbei fiefdom." Some adjustments.”

King Zhenbei's heart sank: "Your Majesty——"

"Qi Yun cannot be reused. There is no need to inherit the title of prince in the future." The emperor flicked his sleeves, turned and walked into Yuqian Palace, "Qinghuang and I come in, and the others leave."

It was like a basin of ice water was poured down on Qi Yun, giving him a bone-chilling chill.

"Qi Ling, Hong Yu, you guys are waiting for me outside." Chu Qinghuang said coldly, "No one is allowed to leave without my permission, otherwise I will skin you!"
