I secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that I was ranked last. As long as Mo Chengjun and Liu Chi won the game, I basically wouldn't have to play.
King Qi gave the order and the competition officially began.
This is a game related to Hanyang's lifelong happiness. Hanyang grabbed Mo Chengjun's hand and said: "You are the best, you know? I am very optimistic about you. Don't let me down!"
Mo Chengjun said: "Princess, don't worry! I will definitely live up to the princess' trust!"
The one who competed with Mo Chengjun in the art of war was Shakshe.
Shakshe is a descendant of the Five Tiger Generals. His father was defeated by Pang Xiu. Therefore, Shakshe has an inexplicable hatred for the people of Xia.
The eunuchs quickly placed a huge sandbox in the center of the field. The sandbox was filled with black and white chess pieces on both sides.
The white ones belong to the Xia Kingdom and the black ones belong to the Yan Kingdom.
I don't know anything about the art of war, so I can only watch the fun and see no clue at all.
While everyone's eyes were focused on the field, I was surprised to find that the man wearing a bamboo hat behind Yan Xiaoqing quietly left the field.
There were a large number of people on the field, and everyone focused their attention on the sand table. The absence of one person was insignificant!
Xia Yan will be in charge, Liu Chi and others will go on stage to test formations later, Hanyang is a servant, and I am the only one who can leave here.
While everyone was cheering, I quietly followed that person.
Most of the guards in the palace were transferred to the competition grounds to protect them, leaving only a few guards to patrol.
The man wearing a bamboo hat soon came to a remote bamboo forest. When there was no one around, he blew a whistle, and a masked man immediately jumped out of the tree.
My eyes widened, what is this going on?
The masked man and the man with the bamboo hat changed clothes. Then the masked man returned to the arena with the bamboo hat, and the mysterious man with the bamboo hat, with his face covered, headed towards the queen's palace.
What a trick to escape the golden cicada!
Qi's treasure "Metallurgy" was divided into two, one was hidden in the queen's palace, and the other was placed on Qi Xuan's body.
In order to help me, Qi Xuan ordered his copy to be moved under the queen's bed when he was in the Xia Kingdom. Now both copies of "Metallurgy" are with the queen.
I asked Yan Xiaoqing why he was so full that he went to Qi for a tour. I didn't expect that his real purpose was to steal "Metallurgy".
I snorted coldly and followed quietly!
The man quickly entered the queen's bedroom, dodged the maids and eunuchs, and reached the bedroom.
I lay down lightly on the roof and watched secretly.
The masked man quickly took out half a book of "Metallurgy" from the pillow and stuffed it into his arms. Seeing that he seemed to be leaving, I quickly threw a tile in the distance. The guards below heard this and rushed over immediately.
:"there's noise!"
The guard's footsteps alerted the thief, who hurriedly ran out of the window, and I hurriedly followed him.
The thief ran behind a hidden rockery, immediately pulled off the mask on his face, and then took off his dark clothes, revealing a pale golden court dress.
I took a breath secretly.
Judging from the patterns and totems on this man's clothes, he doesn't look like an ordinary guard or follower. He and Yan Xiaoqing should have different identities.
After the other party finished all this, he wrapped a stone in his clothes and mask and threw them into the lake nearby.
Finally, he took out the stolen "Metallurgy" and slapped it on the rockery. The rockery immediately cracked open. He carefully put the "Metallurgy" in and walked away!
