Chapter 212
Although the third and fourth sons of the Xiao family have already made up their minds that they must use all their lifelong learning to win tomorrow's martial arts competition, they cannot guarantee that they are [-]% sure of winning.

But to be honest, if the two of them really lost in this huge gamble, not to mention their father and eldest brother would deal with them, they both wanted to beat each other up.

"Don't worry Feiyan, let's see if third brother can't kill those arrogant Dongrong people tomorrow!" Xiao Sanlang patted his chest.

Xiao Silang was not to be outdone: "I have long disliked these Dongrong people. Every year when they come to our Dasheng territory, they treat us Dasheng people like servants. Now I have waited for the opportunity to deal with them!"

Xiao Jiawulang also comforted his little sister: "Feiyan, don't worry. In fact, in the past ten years, it is not that we have not defeated Dongrong in the Dasheng martial arts arena. It's just that it didn't work in the past few years. This year we have to wait for three Brother Si, please restore our great glory!"

A few words to each other, and Xiao Feiyan was quickly coaxed.

The little girl's eyes were no longer worried, but filled with hope. She hoped that they, Dasheng Kingdom, could win tomorrow's martial arts competition and slap those Dongrong people in the face, feeling proud and proud.

Listening to the conversation of the children behind him, a trace of relief flashed in Marquis Jinghai's eyes.

In fact, he could see that no matter how others objected today, the emperor would eventually agree to the outcome of the bet.

Because this bet is basically the emperor's intention, not Xie Yuan's, at least not Xie Yuan's alone.

Since the emperor dares to bet, it means that the emperor thinks that they can win Da Sheng.

In this case, what is the use of his objection? It is better to look at the decision-making and capabilities of today's emperor.

And although he is already old, his sons are still young. If they cannot win the emperor's heart, the Jinghaihou Mansion will only come to an end in the future. It is better to cater to the emperor's heart and fight for the future of these sons.

Mrs. Jinghaihou was speechless. After being married to Mr. Hou for so many years, she naturally knew that Mr. Hou was a man with vision and ability. Since he supported it, of course she also supported it.

Compared to the quietness of the Hou Mansion, Su Mansion and Hua Mansion, most of the other officials and their families looked angry or frustrated, as if Dasheng had lost now and had to pay the terms of the bet.

Until the end of the banquet, many officials still had a look on their faces. As soon as the banquet ended, they gathered together one by one.

"We must not let the emperor be so bewitched by Xie Yuan, a treacherous minister. Let alone the tariffs for the past 20 years, the pastures in Liaodong are so big, how can they be used by the people of Dongrong in vain? Isn't it like spending money to raise horses for them? , if we raise tens of thousands more cavalry for them in the future, how can we survive in Da Sheng!"

"Come on, let's go see the emperor!"

"go!"

A group of ministers gathered together and chased the emperor's leaving figure in a mighty manner, as if they would not stop until the emperor was forced to break the contract tonight.

Many people present looked at their backs and looked at each other in confusion. Some shook their heads and left with a sigh, while others looked hesitant and wanted to follow but didn't dare. Some even scolded them for being spineless.

No matter what, it was a joke to the people of Dongrong who had not left yet. They all looked at him coldly and whispered.

Su Shangshu looked at the excited ministers, sighed slightly, and left with everyone in Su Mansion.

These people still couldn't understand that the emperor and the late emperor had completely different personalities. If they tried to persuade him like this, there was no way that the emperor would give in.

Instead of wasting time there, it’s better to go home early for the New Year.

Su Youyue also followed her father all the way out of the palace. Before she reached the palace gate, she met Xie Yuan who was also leaving the palace.

I saw that the man was enjoying himself at this moment. He was not aware of the fact that he had just made so many ministers stay up all night and go to the emperor to work overtime to persuade him. He was also not aware of the resentful looks in the eyes of many of the ministers' family members around him. As he walked, he whispered something to the two guards beside him.

Su Youyue could hear several people whispering and scolding him.

Otherwise, she'd better leave quickly.

She didn't want to be scolded along with him.Su Youyue quickly winked at Jin'er behind her, but unfortunately, Jin'er didn't receive it at all.

At this time, Xie Yuan's eyes happened to fall on her.

Su Youyue felt a little helpless, but she still straightened her expression without showing any signs of it.

After seeing her, the man turned around and walked straight in her direction.

Many people who were watching him immediately looked in Su Youyue's direction, and suddenly remembered the current relationship between the two.

It seems that the reason Su Shangshu spoke for Xie Yuan today was because Xie Yuan was about to be his son-in-law. How confused!

Could it be that he thought Xie Yuan married Su Youyue for some reason? Was it because he had been humiliated by Su Youyue before and wanted to get back the situation with her and marry her back to humiliate her?

The emperor needed to show off and let the new ministers and old ministers unite to better control the forces in the court, so he agreed to marry him happily.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, everyone watched as Xie Yuan walked to Su Youyue's side, then took out a bag of something from his sleeve and handed it to her.

Su Youyue was still confused, so Chunya stepped forward and took it.

Xie Yuan's eyes paused on her face, and then he took a step forward and started talking with Su Shangshu.

"Miss..." Chun Ya came to her side and whispered, "It looks like a snack."

dessert?

Su Youyue was stunned. She opened the bag and saw that it was actually a bag full of pineapple cakes. She couldn't help but be stunned.

She just ate two more pieces of pineapple cake at the banquet. Did he see all of this?

Even if he saw it, he would forget it and pretended to take it all the way out of the palace.

Many people around also saw the snacks in Su Youyue's hand, with astonishment on their faces. Xie Yuan also said in court that he was a man with bloody hands. Now many people are afraid of his terrible reputation. , although they were dissatisfied with his proposal today, they did not dare to speak out. The only ones who spoke out were those powerful and stubborn officials.

But he would actually bring someone a pack of snacks and deliver them personally. Is this something he can do?
Is this really trying to humiliate Su Youyue?

"..."

After Su Youyue was stunned, she didn't know what to say. She raised her eyes and looked at the man's back. Looking at that solid back, she felt mixed emotions in her heart for a moment.

In her previous life, she would never have imagined that the dignified Xie Yuan, the living king of hell that everyone feared, would actually put a bag of snacks in his sleeves.

If he told it, no one would believe it.

But he just did it, and brought her something in his sleeves more than once.

She had little doubt that he would do the same in the future...

When the group of people arrived in front of Su Mansion's carriage, Xie Yuan stopped and said, "I won't send you off, then. Su Shangshu will walk slowly."

Su Zhenyun was smiling all over his face, as if he was very satisfied with his future son-in-law. Then he turned back to his daughter and said, "Nanny, Mr. Xie is leaving."
