The Red Chamber: Daiyu's eldest sister is not easy to be

Chapter 221 The competition begins

As for Lin Daiyu, that's even more speechless. Others don't know about Jia Tanchun's situation, so doesn't she know about it too?
During the time when the Jia family was in trouble, Lin Ruhai didn't think about saving Sanchun, but what was the result?
He was being stared at to death, let alone trying to save people. If he even dared to move, he would be killed by his political opponents.

If Xue Baochai hadn't come unexpectedly, what would have happened to Sanchun's good looks!

The best way to deal with this matter is to take the person away from here when the other party provokes him, or simply refuse to recognize his identity. Is a moment of anger more important than life? Just make up for it later.

Jia Tanchun's status is a hindrance, but your status as the daughter of the Lin family is no problem. If you want to punish the daughters of several petty officials, it will be easy. I really don't know what she is thinking.

Seeing her leaving, Daiyu stretched out her hand to stop her, but after looking at Tanchun standing next to her, she silently retracted her outstretched hand and said to her softly: "Where do you live now?
Why don't I send you back first, lest you be targeted again? "

Although Tanchun was grateful for her help just now, he did not dare to tell her his current address. It was not because she was jealous of Daiyu, but because she was afraid of anything worse than ten thousand.

Her thoughts turned around, and she quickly found a reason: "Thank you, Sister Lin, for helping me just now, but I still have things to do and I don't want to go back in a hurry, so I won't bother you. You should go and do your own thing!"
When I have some free time, I will host a banquet and invite you to come to thank you for your rescue today. "

When Lin Daiyu heard this, although she was still a little worried, she didn't force it too much. She simply chatted with him for a few words and then separated from him.

With those envoys in the capital, the emperor naturally did not dare to let those people continue to make trouble, lest someone stir up trouble and cause another chaos.

Within two days, the farce came to an end.

The first ones to be dealt with were those who created the rumors. Those who were innocent would be fined and given a few slaps before being released. However, for those who were involved with other countries, the whole family would not be leniently jailed.

Secondly, there were those envoys. Considering that they had already been treated badly by Jiusi, the emperor did not punish them any more. He sent people to warn them, and after having people keep an eye on them, he stopped caring about them. They are.

And among those families who wanted to profit from this matter, none of them got a good result. Either the officials in the family were demoted, or the children in the family were dismissed from their positions. It must be difficult to think about it in the future.

Among the humiliated students, those whose families were not involved were rewarded, while those whose families were involved were punished along with their families.

Finally, there are those students who participated in the sit-in. Those who had bad moral character were dismissed from their academic positions and received thirty bans. Those whose morals were good were given twenty bans. Whether they lived or died depended on luck. After all, the emperor was not So threatening.

Of course, there would inevitably be people in the middle who would stir up trouble, but they were all suppressed by the adults with strong force.

While those envoys were causing trouble one after another, the competition between various countries that everyone was looking forward to was approaching.

But even when it was time for the competition, the envoys still did not stop. After the list of those who participated in the battle was announced, assassins came to their homes, making them very difficult to guard against.

In the end, everyone had no choice but to beg to live in the small courtyard of Jiusi's house, which annoyed her so much.

Fortunately, the competition was very fast. After the competition, one by one was moved away, so even if it bothered her, she wouldn't be annoyed for long, otherwise she would really lose control of herself and kill those envoys.

After more than a month of preparation, on April 15th, the competition began.

The first competition included literature, piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, etiquette, music, archery, imperialism, and mathematics, as well as literary discussions and debates, and various miscellaneous subjects. As a culturally powerful country, there is no doubt that they will win this competition, but they are only competing for happiness.

The most important thing is that through such competitions, they can promote their country's culture very well. It would be even more rare if they could meet one or two like-minded confidants.

Although Jiusi knew about these things, he was not very proficient in them. He came with them not only to protect the safety of the contestants, but also to watch the excitement.

For example, she could still listen to the music of the first piano, but she really didn't know much about the history and origins of the piano. After hearing a rough idea, she stopped listening to it.

As for chess, calligraphy, painting, etiquette, music and mathematics, she had no time to concentrate on them. Just the stumbling blocks secretly made by those people were enough to keep her busy.

Either the strings of the prepared harp were broken, or someone shot a hidden weapon at the chess players, or something was added to the writing ink. The most outrageous thing was the music. Someone actually used that thing to drive away poisonous insects and snakes. Fortunately, she had it with her. Bring medicine, otherwise several contestants will die.

If there were not secret guards arranged by the emperor in advance for her to assign, she would not be able to save so many people at the same time even if she was exhausted.

But the most troublesome thing is Yu He She, one has to ride a horse, and the other has to shoot an arrow. Unexpected situations and accidents should not be arranged easily, and one can accidentally fall into the trap of others.

No, just as she was about to pick up the tea cup to drink, the horse that was led over there suddenly went crazy. She had no choice but to put down the tea cup and got up to deal with it.

As soon as the horse matter was settled, before she could take a breath, another archer over there tried to kill her opponent on the pretext of a missed shot.

What can she do?
He could only take the bow and arrow lying beside him and shoot the arrow aside.

Anyway, after the two-day literary test, the people who participated in the competition were not doing well, but she looked quite haggard.

She was asked to say that so many things happened during competitions in her own country because the emperor gave those people too much good looks. If you don’t believe me, kill a few people and see if they still dare to cause such trouble. .

After the literary test, there is the martial arts test. Jiu Si needs to take part in this round, but she is the finale and does not need to go up from the beginning. She can take the opportunity to take a rest.

The martial arts test is much simpler than the literary test. It is just a simple arena competition. Whichever country is drawn by lot will be compared with that country. In the end, the winners of the two countries left will compete again.

Because there were many people competing, they set up a total of six arenas, and various weapons were placed beside each arena for the contestants to use.

Those who can participate in the competition will naturally have good skills. This time, Jiusi doesn't need to keep an eye on them one by one. After instructing a few secret guards to pay more attention, she went to the ring to watch the battle.

Unfortunately, the first game she watched was a match between Southern Dynasty and another small country.

Although Nan Chao is a manly man, his strength is not bad, and the man on the field is even more extraordinary. He can use a spear like a tiger.

But his opponent was not bad either. He used a big sword very domineeringly, and even if the spear was longer than his big sword, it couldn't hurt him.
