Chapter 27
"That's hard to say. You didn't see the situation outside the palace just now. At that time, Jiang Shangshu was holding a sword and was about to stab the eighth princess. Unexpectedly, the eighth princess not only escaped his attack, but also choked grabbed his neck."

As she spoke, the girl raised her hand to cover her neck, and let out a frightened "Huh".

"So what, anyway, I think General Jiang Ling will win."

"General Jiang Ling was in a daze at the time, how could he win the Eighth Princess?"

……

The news that Yuan Hua and Jiang Ling were invited to compete spread like wildfire in the city.

The topic of people's after-dinner conversation changed from the death of Concubine Huan to Jiang Ling's invitation to Yuan Hua to compete in martial arts.

Compared with the hustle and bustle in the city, the Eight Princes' Mansion seemed much deserted.

Yuan Hua sat under a pear tree in the garden, recalling the scene of discovering the body of the concubine Huan in the pear forest.

Xi'er stood on one side, her eyes fell on her: "Princess, why don't you just tell Jiang's father and son that you didn't kill the concubine Huan?"

"Will they believe it?" Yuan Hua slowly closed her eyes, leaning on the trunk of the pear tree: "Since we have an appointment for a martial arts competition, let's talk about it after the fight."

The petals of pear blossoms all over the garden are falling down one after another.

The white petals fell gently on Yuan Hua's shoulders and hair tips.

When Bai Jinchu passed by, he saw her sitting under the pear tree with her eyes closed, peaceful and beautiful.

With a slight movement in his heart, he turned the wheelchair and came to Yuan Hua's side.

Seeing him coming, Xi'er silently retreated to one side.

Yuan Hua moved her ears and slowly opened her eyes, just in time to see him sitting in front of her.

He raised his hand and gently picked up the white petals that fell on Yuan Hua's hair.

Then, he loosened his fingers holding the petal, and the petal immediately fell out of his control and slowly fell to the ground.

"The concubine's aura today really shocked me."

With the corners of his mouth slightly raised, Bai Jinchu looked at her with a smile.

Although his mouth was full of shock, his expression was still calm.

Yuan Hua looked at him, regardless of how true or false his words were.

She looked at it for a moment, and suddenly opened her lips slightly: "Thank you."

"Ok?"

"Thank you for what you said for me outside the palace gate today."

"It's good that the princess doesn't think that the king is overthinking his abilities." Bai Jinchu chuckled, "Jiang Ling just sent someone to say that the martial arts competition in three days' time will be held at the school grounds in the outskirts of the city. Is the princess confident about this competition? "

Looking away, Yuan Hua didn't answer.

Wuyang and Gulan fought again and again. Although she had been on the battlefield several times, she had never fought Jiang Ling.

She didn't know much about this person, but she had heard rumors about him after coming to Gulan Kingdom.

It is said that as long as he leads the troops, he will surely return in triumph, and he has not lost so far.

In the face of such a powerful person, she has no confidence.

Thinking about it, Yuan Hua's face became a little dignified.

Bai Jinchu seemed to have seen the clue from her expression, and said calmly: "There is some information about him in my study, which may be helpful to you."

After saying a word, Bai Jinchu turned the wooden wheel of the wheelchair, passed Yuan Hua's side and left.

Seeing his back disappearing from sight, Xi'er quickly came to Yuan Hua's side: "Princess, the prince suddenly asked you to go to his study, did he really want to help you, or was it because of the trouble with the assassin last time?" , have already suspected the princess?"

Looking into the distance silently, Yuan Hua frowned slightly.

She found that she couldn't understand Bai Jinchu more and more.
