Seeing an expression that looked like gnashing teeth suddenly on Ashe's face, Ezreal was startled and asked quickly: "Ashe, you are not planning to marry Tryndamere, are you? No, no, no, that common man Tryndamere,
How can I be worthy of you?"
As soon as Ezreal said this, Ashe looked at Ezreal in surprise. She didn't expect Ezreal's reaction to be so big. He became anxious before she even finished speaking. Look at his face.
The anxious expression on her face didn't seem to be fake, and Ai Xi seemed to understand something.
She glanced at Ezreal meaningfully. Originally, she planned to tell Ezreal directly, but now Ashe changed her mind temporarily and decided to whet Ezreal's appetite.
"It's impossible for me to reject Tryndamere head-on. After all, I have to consider the Freljord Tribal Alliance..."
Before he finished speaking, Ezreal interrupted hastily: "Then you plan to sacrifice your own happiness in exchange for the stability of the relationship between the tribal alliance? This is too sad! From ancient times to the present, history has told
Our political marriage will only end in tragedy!"
Seeing that Ezreal was a little excited, Ashe's lips curled up slightly: "I haven't finished speaking yet."
"Then you finish your words first."
Ashe rolled her eyes at him: "Although I can't reject Tryndamere directly, I can reject him indirectly. In this way, I won't hurt anyone's feelings and can give Tryndamere a step down."

Ezreal's eyes lit up: "Indirect method? What is indirect method?"
Ai Xi gave it away: "You'll know this in two days."
After a pause, Ashe glanced at Ezreal again and whispered: "When the time comes, you must help me, otherwise I will really become a victim of political marriage."
After leaving a series of question marks in Ezreal's stomach, Ashe twisted her charming little waist and floated away.
Ezreal looked at her beautiful back and narrowed his eyes. What is the indirect method that Ash said? How can I help her if she doesn't understand?
Ezreal sighed. The current form is becoming more and more unpredictable...
————————————
One night during the three days, Ezreal was drinking in a tavern in the city of Ricostad, and finally learned some gossip from a loud drinker.
It is said that Princess Ai Xi will hold a lion fighting competition in the near future. The person who can stand out in the lion fighting competition will be lucky enough to be favored by Princess Ai Xi.
Upon hearing this, Ezreal immediately grabbed the loud-voiced drunkard, and after questioning, he finally understood what had happened.
The lion fighting competition is the most common marriage ceremony among ice tribes. It is somewhat similar to the Chinese martial arts contest to recruit brides.
Because the Freljord is a matrilineal traditional society, the leadership positions among tribes are all held by women. Men's status in society is often lower than that of women. Therefore, women have the first choice in marriage.
Often, when ice women choose husbands, they will give priority to those strong men as their husbands. And the leaders of those tribes often hold lion fighting competitions to select the bravest men.
Men who can win the lion fighting competition will be favored by women.
The so-called lion fighting competition involves fighting with bare hands against the most terrifying magical creature on the ice sheet: a giant ice lion.[
The ice and snow giant has the strength of a horse and can easily tear a human body into pieces. This creature has huge fighting power, and the residents of the ice field simply do not dare to provoke such a powerful magical creature. Only the group of powerful warriors to the west
Only then can we tame the ice and snow giant lion and become a mount.
Back to the topic, at this time, Ezreal finally understood what the so-called indirect method in Ashe's mouth was. That was to use a martial arts competition to recruit a bride to reject Tryndamere. If Tryndamere lost, he would naturally not be able to continue to be shameless.
But if Tryndamere wins, Ashe will really marry Tryndamere. But Ezreal will never allow this tragedy of a beauty and a beast to happen.
Judging from the current situation, whoever can win Ashe's heart will be the future king of Freljord. This is a big temptation.
The official announcement was sent out early the next morning, just as the rumors had spread. Three days later, the Frost Guard will hold a lion fighting competition on the snowfield outside Ricosteel City, and the leader of the alliance, Ashe, will attend.
This time the game.
Although it is not stated clearly on the list, all Ice Atom citizens know that this is Ashe choosing her lover. (PS: In the background story of lol, Manzi won Ashe's heart by defeating the ice and snow giant lion in bare-handed combat.
The two met in August and got married immediately in September...)
There is no doubt that Ezreal will definitely participate in this marriage competition. Just when he was thinking about his response strategy, Rosen, the captain of Ashe's escort team, suddenly came to the door.
"Ezreal, have you read today's results?"
Rosen said anxiously as soon as he came in.
Ezreal had already guessed Rosen's purpose. He nodded and said, "I saw it."
"Then what are you going to do?" Rosen's eyes were fixed on Ezreal, as if he was looking forward to his answer.
Rosen's expression was seen by Ezreal, and he smiled jokingly: "I heard that this lion fighting competition is a traditional custom of your ice people. Since I am here, I naturally want to get to know Freir.
Zhuode’s customs and customs.”
"What?" Rosen heard Ezreal's words as if he meant to stay out of the matter, and asked urgently: "Ezreal? Don't you plan to participate in the competition?"
"I?"
Ezreal smiled: "What am I, a sharpshooter, doing with those warriors? The requirement of the Lion Fighting Competition is to fight the giant ice lion with bare hands. This is really difficult for us sharpshooters."
Rosen was stunned. What Ezreal said was indeed true. Among Valoran heroes, magicians and sharpshooters have the worst close combat abilities. And Tryndamere is a warrior hero, so he is naturally better than Izer.
Riel has more innate advantages.
"You are right, but... Ezreal, do you really plan to let His Highness Ashe marry that barbarian?" Seeing that Ezreal still looked indifferent, Rosen was surprised.
Getting a little anxious.
Ezreal narrowed his eyes, looked at Rosen's anxious look, and said jokingly: "Rosen, what's wrong with you? Princess Ashe isn't even in a hurry, why do you feel more restless than her?"
"This... ahem, you're overthinking, I'm just thinking about Princess Ashe." Rosen coughed twice, not daring to look directly at Ezreal's burning gaze, and moved his gaze directly to the ground.
This kid can't even lie.
Ezreal shook his head, not wanting to tease him anymore. He crossed his legs and asked, "Did Princess Ashe ask you to come?" (To be continued...)
