Chapter 850: Chapter 850: The Wild Brother Steps Up in the Martial Arts Competition for a Suitor

The moment before the competition, Lu Jianxi and Yege appeared atop the back wall of the training field. They could see everyone arriving beneath the stage clearly from there, but those below couldn’t see them.

"So, is there anyone you like?" Yege asked.

Lu Jianxi shook his head, "At a glance, no one."

Yege chuckled, "General Lu’s standards are truly high."

Lu Jianxi also smiled, "Does General Nangong also think I’m too picky? Perhaps General Nangong finds Jianxi unattractive? Older in age, compared to ordinary women, Jianxi is like a wildflower that no longer has the fragrance of fresh flowers, right?"

"Not at all," Yege shook his head, "While domestic flowers are delicate and beautiful, they can’t outlast the wildflowers’ enduring bloom. I just think that those who have come today are all royalty and nobility, even princes from the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Shun Dynasty are here. Such status is indeed not low."

"But what Jianxi values is not status, but scholarship and temperament, and... never mind, Jianxi doesn’t want to say more. Speaking too much will just seem pretentious."

Yege gave a faint smile, "Actually, I’ve already understood."

Just as it’s with Nan Feng, there must be compatibility, mutual admiration between each other.

The time for the martial arts tournament arrived, and Lu Jianxi went down from the platform with Yege.

According to the rules, the contestants first needed to be narrowed down to the top ten. Only those with the qualifications to enter the top ten could compete with Lu Jianxi, so she spent most of the morning observing the battles.

Meanwhile, Yege went to inquire which participants had come from the Great Zhou Dynasty. Eventually, he found out that a general and a prince of Great Zhou had come.

Now that the general was competing, Yege went to find that prince.

The prince was very young, probably not yet twenty. After Yege introduced himself, the prince immediately showed great courtesy, "So you are the famous General Nangong Palace, your name has spread to our dynasty. When coming to Dajin, I was hoping to meet General Nangong. I didn’t expect to actually encounter you."

Yege nodded, "It’s just an empty reputation. Are you the Fourth Prince?"

"Yes, it was my father who sent me," the Fourth Prince said, "I am playful by nature and have not yet taken a wife, so it could only be me who came. My older brothers are all married."

Yege nodded, "If you could marry General Lu, that would also be excellent. I heard one of your brothers married Princess Changle of our Dajin?"

"Yes," the Fourth Prince said, "You’re talking about my second sister-in-law."

Nini... Yege’s heart was already very excited, but he still maintained a calm demeanor, "I played with Princess Changle when I was a child, we were childhood sweethearts, I suppose. How is she faring in the Dazhou Dynasty?"

"That? His Majesty just asked me about that when I arrived yesterday. Of course, she’s doing very well, my royal brother treats her nicely. Actually, just recently she gave birth to a little prince for my royal brother."

Yege was stunned for a moment, his emotions churning like a tumultuous river.

As long as Nini is doing well, that’s what matters.

She was a bride sent in someone’s place, a fact the Emperor of Dazhou mustn’t know. Yege had intended to visit Dazhou to see her, but since she was deep within the palace, seeing her wasn’t as easy as wishing it. Knowing she was well, Yege dismissed the thought of going to Dazhou.

"General Nangong, what’s wrong?" Seeing Yege lost in a daze, the Fourth Prince couldn’t help feeling puzzled. Could it be that General Yege had feelings for his royal sister-in-law? Otherwise, why would his expression change so drastically upon hearing that the sister-in-law had given birth to a little prince?
