Xia Bingguang’s face darkened.
Yesterday, dozens of people were injured by the two princesses. Now, 20 people seemed like nothing.
Xia Bingguang looked at Xia Hongming fiercely. “Crown Prince, what’s going on?”
Xian Fei was also a little nervous. Xia Hongming had always been careful. He should not have made such a low mistake.
Xia Hongming said to Xian Fei and Xia Bingguang seriously, “Mother, Father, believe me. These 23 people are enough.”
Xia Bingguang was puzzled. He looked at Xia Hongming and confirmed again that Xia Hongming was not joking. Xia Bingguang did not know what Xia Hongming wanted to do, but when he was sure that Xia Hongming was not joking around, the worry and panic in his heart disappeared. Looking at the envoys of the Yan Dynasty who were smug, Xia Bingguang said in a low voice, “This competition is for the two princesses to choose a husband, not for an emperor to choose a consort. 23 people are enough.”
Su Yue, Lei Bu, and Lei Ming frowned with obvious displeasure, but they did not say anything.
Xia Bingguang looked at Princess Su Ran, who went on the ring first, and said calmly, “Princess Su Ran, please start choosing.”
Su Ran held the whip and walked towards the soldiers standing in a row. Her gaze was very cold and arrogant as she glanced at them disdainfully. She pointed at Lu Zhen. “You first.”
Su Ran walked back and gently waved the whip. The soft sound of the whip made everyone who had experienced it tremble in fear. They could not help but feel worried for Lu Zhen. It would be a pity if such a good man was crippled by Su Ran’s whip.
Lu Zhen slowly went on stage. If not for the fact that Liu Sanniang had already exposed the tricks these two princesses had up their sleeves, he would indeed be worried if he could survive her whipping.
Looking at Su Ran, who was high and mighty, Lu Zhen only felt disgust. He said coldly, “Princess, you said that you will submit to whoever defeats you, right?”
Su Ran looked at Lu Zhen and nodded. “Yes, as long as you defeat me, you can marry me.”
Lu Zhen’s expression did not change. Instead, he looked up. “I have to disagree with you. In this world, there are many people who can defeat you. Do you want to marry them all? Why should someone who can defeat you have the right to marry you?”
When Xia Bingguang heard Lu Zhen’s words, he nodded thoughtfully. “What this soldier said makes sense.”
A trace of displeasure flashed across Su Ran’s eyes. “Then what do you want to do? Tell me.”
Lu Zhen said calmly, “It’s very simple. If 1 win, I can choose not to marry you. There are so many people present today. Other than me, there will always be someone else who can defeat you. If we all like you, it’s up to you to choose, and we also have the right to choose not to marry you.”
Su Ran frowned.
Su Yue, who was above, said at the right time, “1 don’t think this is what you should worry about. After all, you have to defeat my sister first. As for this marriage alliance, we naturally have to choose a husband my sister likes.”
Xia Hongming said calmly, “Marriage has to be based on mutual consent. If you want the soldiers of my dynasty to give up their happiness, I won’t agree.”
The smile on Su Yue’s face stiffened. “Your Highness, you’re right.”
Su Ran said in a low voice, “Alright, I agree.”
It was naturally impossible for her to lose.
Lu Zhen did not even look at Su Ran. He turned around and went to get a scimitar. He said coldly, “Please.”
Lu Qingqing watched from the side. When she saw that Lu Zhen was about to start fighting, she smiled and said to the madam beside her, “That’s my husband. His name is Lu Zhen.”
The madam beside Lu Qingqing was stunned for a moment before she smiled at Lu Qingqing. “I see.”
Lu Qingqing was a little proud. Her husband was bringing honor to the country.
Lu Qingqing held her chin with both hands and looked at the ring seriously.
She felt that Lu Zhen was stunningly handsome. Looking at his cold face, Lu Qingqing felt a little smug. After all, she was the only one who knew how gentle Lu Zhen was.
Su Ran’s whip was agile. When it lashed, the air seemed to have been torn apart.
However, Lu Zhen was also impressive. He easily dodged it, and the scimitar in his hand went straight for Su Ran’s face.
He cut off a strand of her hair.
Su Ran was dumbfounded. She felt that she no longer had any advantage over Lu Zhen.
This realization made Su Ran’s heart tremble because she knew that it was impossible for them to be on par with each other. Her whip took the power of heaven and earth. Lu Zhen was an ordinary soldier, so it was impossible for him to withstand her move. However, not only could Lu Zhen withstand it, but he could also beat her back.
When Su Ran whipped him, Lu Zhen grabbed the whip. Su Ran’s eyes widened. It was unknown if it was because of anger or surprise, but when Lu Zhen pulled hard, Su Ran felt pain in her arm. She couldn’t help but let go of the whip. Lu Zhen held the whip in his hand and swung it, lashing at Su Ran’s shoulder.
Su Ran’s eyes widened in pain. She could not believe that she had suffered a crushing defeat.. How could Lu Zhen snatch her whip?
