Chapter 408: The Master of Clear Soup
“There is no way for misfortunes and blessings, only people bring it upon themselves.”

Zhao Feng could tell at a glance what the little eunuch wanted to do just now.

The opponent's target was not on the goal at all, but on Yu'er's legs.

After all, the Cuju competition is not a head-to-head confrontation between warriors. Even if she is one level higher, it will be difficult to use the ball to destroy Yu'er, who is at level eight.

But it is possible to make a sneak attack in secret and injure Yu'er.

There are only three little ones in Jingyang Palace. If anyone is injured, they will be unable to continue participating in the competition due to insufficient numbers.

If you move your mind a little bit, you can think of this kind of thing.

But the people who die the fastest and the most miserably in the world are precisely those who think they are smart.

This time, Zhao Feng did not blame Li Xuan for hitting too hard, but looked at the sky in the distance, as if he was indifferent to the scene in front of him.

"Manager Zhao!"

Zhao Feng bowed to the fourth prince from a distance and actually agreed with his statement.

She was already distracted at this time, so she had no time to worry about anything else.

Zhao Feng gave an order, and the eunuchs in colorful clothes immediately took action, broke into the scene without any explanation, and took away the people pointed out by Zhao Feng.

But the sixth princess was so frightened by Li Xuan that she couldn't even stand still.

The Sixth Princess couldn't help but feel scared when she thought about it.

Beat him to death with a stick!

Zhao Feng's penalty made the audience silent.

But there are some things he still has to say:

But then he gained courage, held his head high, and maintained his dignity.

When the fourth prince saw Li Xuan looking at him, his heart tightened subconsciously.

"Pull him down and beat him to death with sticks!"

"Your Highness, what you said makes sense."

He already understood Zhao Feng's position at this time.

The eunuch just now flew past his feet, and the fishy smell could be clearly smelled in the air waves he caused.

"Mr. Zhao is selfless and the punishment is fair."

"Your Highness, the Fourth Highness, is as meticulous as a hair. He really puts this old slave to shame."

If he really dared, the fourth prince would be happier.

"That's what His Royal Highness reminded you."

The fourth prince stood there and could only sigh.

"This Cuju game is too barbaric. Are there no rules to restrict it?"

In front of so many people, he really didn't believe that Li Xuan dared to do anything to him.

Hearing this, Li Xuan turned his head and glanced at the fourth prince.

At that time, by using the excuse, Li Xuan might be able to get rid of him.

But before the fourth prince could finish speaking, Zhao Feng interrupted:

But when he saw that his friend who was playing football with him before was kicked by a cat and was beaten to death by a eunuch in colorful clothes, he couldn't help but feel the sadness of a rabbit dying of a fox, and he screamed out of nowhere:
"Your Highness."

But this is also a commonly used method in the palace. As long as it can benefit oneself, anything can be used.

"We can't be like this in the next games. If we play like this at the Double Ninth Festival banquet tomorrow, wouldn't it be too shameful for the royal family?"

"The following crimes are unforgivable!"

When the surviving eunuch saw the Sixth Princess react like this, he immediately lowered his eyelids and silently stepped back, not daring to say anything else.

As for his final result, Zhao Feng has already made it very clear.

Then Zhao Feng raised his finger and said in a cold voice: "Maliciously attack the opponent's players and be deprived of the right to compete!"

Rules and violence are just tools that can be used.

But only he knows best what kind of gaze is hidden under those drooped eyelids.

Seeing the eunuchs in colorful clothes approaching, the valet eunuch who was still with his companions hurriedly got out of the way, for fear of hurting himself.

In the blink of an eye, he already had a lot of "good" ideas.

There were not many fools present, and they all understood that the fourth prince wanted to use the rules to suppress Jingyang Palace.

"Since Sixth Sister's eunuch has been severely punished, will Ankang's cat also have to..."

As for the eunuch on the ground, he was dragged down like a dead dog by the eunuch in colorful clothes.

As long as it can achieve its own purpose, it is a good tool.

Suddenly, amid a commotion, the fourth prince in the stands stood up and spoke loudly.

"Princess Ankang has made great achievements in taming animals and protecting the Lord. I will report this to Your Majesty and commend her."

Zhao Feng looked like he was reminded by the fourth prince and then thanked him with a guilty conscience, with a sincere smile on his face.

The fourth prince's face was twitching at being said, after all, he couldn't defeat Zhao Feng, an old man.

Everyone present with ears knows what he means. This old eunuch must misinterpret his meaning here.

Those who didn't know better would have thought that the fourth prince and the sixth prince were not on good terms in private.

"This matter is still inappropriate."

Just when the fourth prince was about to give up, an unexpected person came out to help.

Everyone looked and saw that it was Concubine Zhao Shu, the third prince's mother.

Concubine Zhao Shu was the representative figure of the noble concubine in the harem. She was incompatible with the eldest prince and the others, and she was usually considered to be fighting openly and secretly.

But at this moment, he stood up and spoke for the fourth prince.

"This Cuju competition is too dangerous. If it is not restrained, unbearable tragedy may happen."

"Since Manager Zhao serves as the referee for this game, he must be careful in making penalties."

"Otherwise, it will cause a big disaster in the future, and I'm afraid it will be difficult for Mr. Zhao to explain to His Majesty."

Concubine Zhao Shu spoke softly, seeming to be really worried about this situation, her eyebrows furrowed slightly.

This is a woman who knows how to use her own charm.

She looks like this, even a woman will be moved by her look.

Li Xuan sighed secretly, but he was not surprised.

He was previously unwilling to perform in a high-profile manner because he was afraid that such a situation would happen.

As long as a sufficiently threatening opponent appears, even the two hostile parties will share the same hatred and eliminate threats that cannot be dealt with first.

The eighth prince before was considered one, and now Li Xuan also became one.

What these people said sounded nice, but in the final analysis, they did not want Princess Ankang to be eliminated.

It was their consensus that they didn't want Princess Ankang to win this month's game again.

Therefore, he is not letting go of the fact that Li Xuan hurt others.

If it weren't for Zhao Feng's previous fair punishment, no one would have even mentioned the matter of the sixth princess's eunuch plotting against her.

Li Xuan looked at Zhao Feng secretly, and he was really afraid that he wouldn't be able to withstand the pressure of the game.

But facing this situation, Zhao Feng smiled slightly and didn't care.

"This old slave is extremely frightened by Concubine Shu's concern."

"Having someone as far-sighted and talented as Concubine Shu is truly a blessing to the harem."

Zhao Feng's words of praise made Concubine Zhao Shu's face turn cold.

Sometimes, being popular and capable is not necessarily a good thing.

Especially when this person is just a concubine, not a queen.

Everyone in the palace said that Queen Wu hated Jingyang Palace the most, but anyone with a discerning eye knew that there were other people who were more worthy of Queen Wu's attention than the powerless Leng Palace.

Just like this Zhao Shufei.

He has both ability and political integrity, a good family background, and is popular. You say that if such a person stays down there, whose butt won’t be scratched?

And Zhao Feng praised her so openly in front of so many people, how could she not make Concubine Zhao angry?

Concubine Zhao Shu had always been well-behaved in front of Empress Wu, just to avoid being tabooed.

But no matter how good she does, she can't resist these villains with ulterior motives behind her back.

All the mouths of gold, accumulating and destroying bones.

What's more, someone like Zhao Feng deliberately praised her in front of so many people.

Concubine Zhao Shu was so angry that her teeth were itching, but she still had to keep her face elegant.

Li Xuan watched from the side and didn't hear anything wrong, but he could see that Concubine Zhao Shu's expression was much stiffer.

"Hey, you are indeed an old eunuch. He can make people angry with just a few words."

Li Xuan grinned heartlessly.

Zhao Feng still had a smile on his face. He then bowed to Concubine Zhao Shufei and said, "Thank you for your concern, Concubine Shufei. Since I have an important responsibility, I will not let your majesty down."

"If anyone has any doubts about this old slave's sentence, they can report it to His Majesty."

"This old slave has no complaints!"

Zhao Fengfang was talking nonsense. Few of these people could see Emperor Yongyuan on weekdays, let alone file a complaint against him.

When Li Xuan saw Zhao Feng's fair and just punishment, he couldn't help shouting happily:
"Meow! (Master Qingtian!)"

Seeing Li Xuan getting carried away, Zhao Feng glared at him, coughed dryly, and signaled him to keep a low profile.

Everyone saw that the fourth prince and Concubine Zhao Shu had hit a wall with Zhao Feng one after another and stopped showing their faces.

But this time, they all saw that Zhao Fengshi was firmly on Princess Ankang's side, showing an obvious tendency.

As the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Zhao Feng was an absolute confidant of Emperor Yongyuan.

Such an action made everyone start to think too much.

The fourth prince sat down again with a calm face and shook his head at the eldest prince:
"No, let Sixth Sister come down."

"We have to find another way to deal with this cat."

The eldest prince nodded silently and agreed with the fourth prince's opinion.

The two brothers looked at the Sixth Princess on the field. It turned out that the Sixth Princess was still in a trance and had not come back to her senses. She did not notice the gazes of the two brothers in the stands.

At this time, the eunuch who was still waiting behind her stepped forward to remind her, which made the Sixth Princess realize the gazes of her two brothers.

The fourth prince looked at the state of the sixth prince at this time and became even more convinced of his judgment.

He immediately made a gesture to tell the Sixth Princess to give up the game.

Since there is nothing you can do about the other party, it is better to retreat and save yourself.

My sister is already so frightened that there is no need to continue to force her.

None of them thought beforehand that the little black cat next to Princess Ankang could be so ferocious.

But after the Sixth Princess saw the gesture, she was stunned for a moment, and then turned her head and ordered the remaining eunuch: "Go and find someone else to come up, and we will continue the game."

The eunuch who served nearby did not dare to disobey the order and went down to look for the person as ordered.

When they came to participate in the competition, they naturally brought substitutes, all of whom were carefully selected eunuchs in Xuanyi from Qingshu Palace.

But these people were all standing beside the eldest prince and the fourth prince at this time.

Seeing that the Sixth Princess did not give up the game, but sent someone to find a replacement, the Fourth Prince immediately grabbed the eunuch who served as a valet and asked with a frown:

"what happened?"

"Your Highness, the Sixth Princess still wants to continue competing, so she asked the younger one to find a substitute."

The eunuch who served as the eunuch was just a servant, so naturally he did not dare to be caught in the middle. He just conveyed the wishes of the Sixth Princess honestly.

The fourth prince sighed immediately and looked at the eldest prince helplessly.

The eldest prince didn't say anything, he just nodded slightly.

They all know that their sister and Princess Ankang are very competitive.

There was no way they could give up on behalf of the Sixth Princess in this game.

In this case, we can only support it.

"Get him on the field."

The fourth prince pointed behind him. This was originally his official team member, but now it was lent to the sixth prince.

Then, he gave instructions to the two people who were about to come on stage:

"Remember, no matter whether you win or lose the game, nothing will happen to Sixth Sister."

"Otherwise, I will make you regret that it was not you who was dragged down just now."

The fourth prince's tone was calm, but it made the two eunuchs feel a chill in their hearts.

Who in Qingshu Palace doesn't know the fourth prince's methods?
They knew that the fourth prince was not joking with them.

"Here!"

The two eunuchs who served at the door sang "Oi" and then hurriedly came on to continue the game.

But both the eldest prince and the fourth prince knew that Princess Ankang would win as long as Li Xuan was there.

The action of blocking the attack earlier and then counterattacking instantly was really impressive.

To be honest, the princes and princesses in the stands did not see Li Xuan's movements clearly at all, even the most powerful third prince.

"Zhan'er, are you confident you can beat Ankang's team?"

The third prince shook his head and said:

"The orcs already have a physical advantage over the humans, and the cats are even more famous for their agility."

"If it was just a regular match, it would most likely be a tie."

The third prince analyzed seriously.

"Oh?"

Concubine Zhao Shu was a little surprised. She didn't expect that her son, who had already entered the third grade of middle school, was not sure of winning Princess Ankang's team.

But she thought about it and felt that a tie was not an unacceptable result.

In previous competitions, there was a precedent for several people to win the first place together.

If it ended in a draw between Princess Ankang and the Third Prince, leaving the final to be indifferent, Zhao Shufei felt that it would be acceptable.

On the Cuju court, the game continues.

But this time, the Sixth Princess chose to go to the front and actively launched the attack herself.

There were even many golf courses, and she came directly to Princess Ankang.

But with the strength of the Sixth Princess and the Eighth Grade, to be honest, Li Xuan didn't even need to step forward to help, Princess Ankang could catch the ball by herself.

Even though Princess Ankang has no cultivation at all, because of her special physique and the fact that she has perfected several ninth-grade techniques, her strength is not weaker than that of ordinary eighth-grade warriors, and is even stronger.

Unconsciously, the second half of the game turned into a battle between Princess Ankang and the Sixth Princess.

But what made the Sixth Princess even more angry was that she found that she could not defeat Princess Ankang in a duel with Cuju.

"Damn it!"

Finally, the game ended with a final score of 1-0 at a whistle.

After all, the Sixth Princess failed to decide the outcome with Princess Ankang. On the contrary, she was panting from exhaustion.

On the other hand, Princess Ankang looked more relaxed than her, and she was still thinking about chatting and laughing with Li Xuan after the game.

"Wow, it's really a hearty game."

Princess Ankang wiped the sweat from her forehead, hugged Li Xuan and prepared to go down to rest.

This look of ease and ease really made the Sixth Princess' eyes wide open.

"Is this damn girl an old scalper?"

"Why are you so energetic?"
