After listening to Jin and Xuan Bin's repeated admonitions, even if Wang Yue Yihu's heart was burning, he had no choice but to endure it.
The king's plan will be realized, and when the king comes to the world, he will be able to see it! Looking at the moon and a tiger, he suppressed the displeasure in his heart.
On the other side, on the west side of the arena, in the Tang Dynasty camp, the royal family and important ministers were sitting under large paper fans to watch the competition.
Crown Prince Li Chengqian was among them. He looked at ease at this time, sipping tea while looking at Hou Junji on the stage.
Next to Li Chengqian is Shangguan Jin of Zhongshu Ling.
At this time, Shangguan Jin said with a smile on his face: "Your Highness, I wonder what you think of this competition?"
"In my opinion, Chen Guogong naturally won."
"Your Highness is wise, and I think the same thing."
While Shangguan Jin was flattering, a cold voice came from the side.
"Brother Imperial, don't underestimate the people of Goguryeo. I think that big man is not simple!"
The person who spoke was none other than Li Tai!
Li Tai and Li Chengqian sat side by side, with three people separated between them, but even though they were far apart, Li Tai could still hear the words of his brother Li Chengqian.
Li Chengqian disliked Li Tai in his heart and regarded his biological brother as a competitor, but as a prince, he naturally had to maintain a harmonious appearance.
"My dear brother, it's wrong for you to say that. Do you think Chen Guogong will lose?
If you think that way, wouldn’t it mean that you will only inflate other people’s ambitions and destroy your own prestige?”
"Brother Emperor, this is a misunderstanding. I just think that the people in Goguryeo are not simple, and we should be more careful.
On the other hand, why would the emperor say that I "improve other people's ambitions and destroy my own prestige"?
Is that what you think?"
"I am the Crown Prince and I care about the Tang Dynasty. How could I think like this!"
Although the two of them were smiling, the exchange of glances seemed to be like swords clashing, extremely passionate.
Little did they know that the competition in the ring had already begun!
Hou Junji took the lead in attacking, running quickly, using the power of his run-up to fly into the air and kicking the big man with dark circles hard.
The big man with dark circles was tall and burly, but he was very flexible when moving. He avoided the opponent's kick with a sliding step to the right, and then grabbed Hou Junji's foot with both hands, as if he was throwing
He was going to throw Hou Junji directly out of the ring like he was holding a sandbag.
Hou Junji was a veteran of the Tang Dynasty. He had killed countless enemies on the battlefield. He had much more combat experience than others. When the dark-eyed man was about to throw him away, he immediately kicked him in the face with his left foot.
He dropped his foot and kicked him directly. The kick made the big man with black eyes shake his head slightly and cause him great pain.
At this moment, Hou Junji was freed. The big man with dark circles was attacked, and his hands released his bonds. After Hou Junji fell back to the ground, he immediately stabilized his body, stepped hard with his feet, and flew away.
Rush out, kick and attack with a pair of punches.
Hou Junji's fists were covered with calluses and were thick and generous. Now the punch fell on the big man with dark circles like a storm, hitting him until he was unable to fight back.
With no other choice, the big man with dark circles could only defend himself, holding his head in his hands and retreating continuously.
Seeing this scene made all the civil and military officials of the Tang Dynasty feel happy!
"As expected of Chen Guogong, he is fighting for our Tang Dynasty!"
"Yes, yes, I believe we can definitely win this first martial arts exchange event!"
"These Goguryeo people also want to compare with our great Tang Dynasty?
It’s just a joke! Come on, Chen Guogong, beat them to pieces!”
The civil servants and military officers present were as excited as if they had been given a shot of blood, waving flags and shouting.
Little did he know that outside the side door of the palace in front of the palace, three figures sneaked in. Yes, they were Muchuan, Mo Zhu, and Ouyang Bufan.
An hour ago, the three of them were having lunch leisurely in the Shangshu's mansion. Later, the prime minister Wei Zheng discovered that there was a missing member of the household department among the civil and military officials, so he sent someone to ask about the situation.
This question made Muchuan and the others remember what day it was. Today was a martial arts exchange event between the Tang Dynasty and Goguryeo! As the powerful officials of the Tang Dynasty, all the powerful officials of the Tang Dynasty must attend!
Ouyang Bufan was complaining: "Mr. Mu, it's all thanks to you. I wouldn't have forgotten such an important thing! If you hadn't insisted on dragging us to talk about business, how could we have been late!"
Mo Zhu: "Master Mu, it's easy to be careless in such serious matters."
In fact, Muchuan himself is very calm and calm. Isn't it just a martial arts exchange event?
Anyway, even if the people from their household department are present, they are just joining in to watch the fun. What does it matter if they are present or not?
The people who must attend should be from the Ministry of War. Muchuanke heard that the people from the Ministry of War need to take this opportunity to see the level of Goguryeo's military officers and soldiers. For this reason, all officials from the Ministry of War, big and small, must be present.
The Hubu department was fine. In fact, even if they didn't arrive, the emperor and the prime minister would not blame him. On the contrary, Muchuan couldn't figure out why Ouyang Bufan and Mo Zhu were so nervous.
Now the three of them sneaked to the Datang camp on the west side, where a temporary sunshade wooden house was built. The person in the first place was naturally Li Shimin, with it as the center, and a group of loyal ministers and generals on the left and right were distributed on both sides.
When Muchuan and the other three arrived, a deep and loud voice shouted, "Brother Muchuan, you are finally here!"
The person who shouted was none other than Qin Qiong. When he saw Muchuanke getting excited, he shouted and walked over to greet him.
Originally, no one knew that Muchuan and the others were late unless Qin Qiong shouted, but when he shouted, the officials knew that they were late.
"Aren't these the Minister of the Ministry of Finance and the two Ministers of the Ministry of Finance?
Why are they here just now?"
“Aren’t the people in this household department too arrogant?
Don’t you know what day today is?
All the officials have arrived, but the household department is late."
"Haha, ever since the household department was taken over by this man named Muchuan, it has been disrespectful and has no rules at all. Is it because the emperor loves and trusts him so much that he is so arrogant?"
Many civil and military officials began to whisper and discuss in low voices.
This is the reason why Mu Xiu is bound to be destroyed by Lin Feng. Muchuan himself has a very dazzling aura, and he acts in such a high-profile manner, it is strange that others are not jealous.
Li Shimin was sitting on the dragon wooden chair in the center. He naturally noticed that Muchuan was late, so he couldn't help but sigh: "This Muchuan is really late. He is always late when he is late, and he makes such a big noise.
We have to punish him properly later."
"Your Majesty, let's forget it this time."
The person who spoke was Empress Changsun. This time she was watching the martial arts exchange showdown between the two countries. As the head of the harem, she was also invited to participate.
