Rebirth of the Three Kingdoms: Da Qiao doesn't want to be a widow anymore

Chapter 302 Competition
After these words were spoken, several men looked at each other, with sarcastic smiles on their faces.

"It's just that your vision is really not flattering. I am honored to meet you, my lord. You are so handsome. I don't know how a lowly horse breeder could catch your eye." The man looked puzzled, with a hint of regret and disdain in his tone.

"You don't understand this. Things on the bed are not about status. Think about the Marquis of Changxin back then... After all, it is people with special abilities who have a better future. You and I can't learn that!"

A few people were talking excitedly when a voice suddenly appeared behind them. They were so scared that they couldn't even hold the wine cup in their hands. Two of them fell to the ground and broke.

"Brother Chen, you probably forgot about hiding from the Chen family under the stables last spring. Your leg injury hasn't healed yet, and your gossip problem has come back? You slandered the court officials and involved the family affairs of the princes. How many heads do you have?"

Looking back, Wu Fan was standing behind them with a gloomy face.

Qiao Wei held a banquet for him to celebrate his graduation. He had not originally invited his colleagues, but he could not resist their enthusiasm and finally politely invited everyone to take a seat.

He held up his wine cup and wanted to toast, but he didn't want to hear their sarcastic slander behind his back.

The man called Brother Chen looked up and met Wu Fan's angry eyes. The expression on his face froze for a moment. He opened his mouth to explain, but saw Qiao Wei appeared behind Wu Fan. In the end, he was speechless.

The few people who were discussing together just now didn't dare to speak anymore, and even their breathing became cautious.

Youyan stepped forward and extended his hand to several people, making a "please" gesture.

Asking people to leave the banquet in the middle of the meal would be a humiliation if it got out. They looked up at Qiao Wei's face and knew that this was the most respectful thing Mrs. Qiao had given them. They knew they were in the wrong and didn't dare to say anything more. They stood up and said goodbye tremblingly, feeling regretful in their hearts. How could they lose their sense of propriety after drinking two more glasses of wine?

He said such words at a banquet hosted by the host and was caught on the spot by Mrs. Qiao. His career, which did not have much hope to begin with, was probably completely ruined.

Thinking of this, several people couldn't help but look at the man surnamed Chen, with a bit more anger and blame in their eyes.

If it weren't for this old Chen's talkativeness, how could they be so disrespectful here? ! ! !
Wu Fan looked at their backs as they left, feeling indescribably heartbroken and disappointed.

He turned around and bowed to Qiao Wei to apologize.

Qiao Wei raised his hand to support him, "They are full of thieves and whores. They are not looking down on you, but on me. In fact, it is me who has brought trouble to the reputation of the master. Will the master easily lose his will and distance himself from me because of this?"

Wu Fan raised his head, his eyes firm, "I won't do that."

But he paused a moment later, and spoke cautiously with a slightly uncertain tone, "But after all, three people can make a tiger, and I am afraid of you, my lord..."

I wonder if the prince will feel resentful after hearing these rumors. If so, Wu Fan feels that he will be blamed for his crime.

"No." She turned her head slightly to look at Xiao Yu and Xiao Hui beside her, "Are the people around me all blind?"

Wu Fan raised his head in confusion, followed Qiao Wei's gaze, and then he regained his composure. However, all this was the prince's family affairs, and as a subject, even if he understood it, he could only pretend to be confused.

"Sir, you will be leaving tomorrow, so you should go back and rest today! The journey is long and the responsibility is heavy. I will not see you out of the city tomorrow. I hope you take care of yourself and have a safe journey."

After Wu Fan left, You Yi and You Hui knelt down in front of Qiao Wei, "Madam, we brothers and sisters have never spied on you. Your Excellency is worried about your safety and that the Qiao family might do something bad to you, so you asked us to report your itinerary. We only reported your itinerary and safety, and didn't say anything else. You Hui has never told us about your private affairs, so please understand."

Since ancient times, it has been a taboo for a subject to serve two masters. Secretly spying on the master's secrets and spreading them to everyone is the biggest taboo among taboos. Once the incident happens, no master will be willing to employ such a person.

Qiao Wei pursed his lips slightly and looked coldly at the brother and sister kneeling below without saying a word.

She saw with her own eyes that Youyan wrote down her deeds on a piece of letter and delivered it to the Wuxian Post Station. After confirming this, she felt more heartbroken than disappointed.

Ever since she learned that Sun Quan intended to send Youye away, she had been thinking about cultivating a new confidant. She chose Youyan because of his loyalty, but she forgot that he was a family general of the You generation. Perhaps from the beginning to the end, the two brothers and sisters were only loyal to the Sun family and not to her, Qiao Wei.

Qiao Wei didn't say anything, and the brother and sister didn't dare to stand up. Their foreheads were covered with cold sweat, and even their breathing seemed to have stopped.

You Yu secretly hated himself for losing his temper, but he forgot that no matter how leniently Mrs. Qiao treated them, she was still the master after all.

You Hui secretly raised his eyes to look at Qiao Wei's expression, but lowered his eyes again in just a moment. There was no anger on Qiao Wei's face, but his eyes were like the ocean, and beneath the calm surface, there were surging waves hidden.

"That was what the Lord asked you to do. Why are you apologizing to me?" In the end, the expected punishment did not come.

Qiao Wei waved his hand gently, indicating that they could get up and continue their work.

You Hui secretly breathed a sigh of relief, with an imperceptible flash of relief in his eyes, while You Xian's tense expression only relaxed a little, but the worry in his eyes became more intense.

"According to the date, you should have reached Haihun by now!"

Sun Quan stood in the middle of the high platform in the parade ground, holding a pair of halberds. He looked at the people around him, then raised his hand to peel off his soft armor amid the noise, revealing his muscular upper body.

He raised his hand and helped up several generals who were knocked to the ground on the side of the platform one by one, "I'm sorry."

After the generals stood up, they looked at each other, with some embarrassment or admiration on their faces, and they all clasped their fists in return, "Thank you, my lord, for showing mercy."

Other generals in the audience were eager to show off their martial arts. Whether it was to gain face in front of General Taishi or in front of the princes, it would be a great help to their future careers.

Amid the sound of drums and shouts, a thin layer of sweat appeared on Sun Quan's back, shining brightly in the sunlight.

Sun Quan raised his hands high, with a hint of pride as a winner, "It's so refreshing! Who else?"

Taishi Xiang looked towards his father Taishi Ci, his eyes full of anticipation. He had already been itching to try his hand at the competition just now, having watched Sun Quan compete on the field.

He couldn't wait to step forward and compete with Sun Quan.

Taishi Ci nodded slightly to Taishi Xiang.

"My Lord, I am Taishi Xiang, and I would like to ask for your advice!"
