Chapter 664: Who wins and who loses
Empress Running Away with the Ball
Never in his dreams would he have imagined that the promise between Chen Ning and Na Mu Cuo would be like this!
If he knew this earlier, he would not have allowed her to participate no matter what.
Chu Shao Yangâs teeth creaked from him gritting them.
Bastard! Damn! This damn East Qin Crown Prince! He was too rude, too arrogant! He actually had ideas towards his princess, was he impatient to die!
âKing Ding Yuan, calm down, calm down!â
âDonât be impulsive! There is the emperor to make the final decision!â
The ministers were all shocked into breaking out in a cold sweat from the killing intent he released. The ministers that had a good relation with him all went over to advise him.
But Chu Shao Yang ignored everything. His eyes were red as his hand went to the soft sword at his waist. He walked over to the side of the stands and was prepared to jump down.
âShao Yang, stop!â
There was a red figure that flashed forward. Eldest Princess An Leâs hand was fast as she grabbed Chu Shao Yangâs shoulder, reprimanding in a cold voice, âWhat do you want to do!â
âRoyal aunt, donât stop me! I want to kill him! He.....He actually wants to steal my Ningâer!â Chu Shao Yang said through gritted teeth.
The Eldest Princess said in a low voice in his ear, âIf you kill him, you will break the peace between the two countries. You will spark the flames of war and the citizens will lose their peace. The most important thing is that you will cause your father to die!â
Although her voice was low, it was cleared his head and Chu Shao Yangâs killing intent disappeared.
His blood red eyes turned to the Eldest Princess and he numbly said, âBut royal aunt, can I just let him steal Ningâer away?â
âHow is that possible!â The Eldest Princess said, âEven if you agree, the emperor will never agree. Not to mention that the promise between them is that only if Ningâer loses that she will leave with the East Qin Crown Prince. Do you believe the East Qin Crown Prince will win? I am more optimistic about Ningâerâs chances!â
Chu Shao Yang suddenly patted his head and shouted, âThatâs right, I was confused by my anger of that bastard. Ningâer will not lose, definitely not!â
He clenched his fists and looked downwards.
âRespected emperor, this prince and your countryâs princess have finished writing, we ask for your majestyâs fair judgement.â
Beneath the stands, Na Mu Cuoâs right hand was placed over his left chest and he gave a slight bow to Mo Chuan on the stands.
This time he properly spoke the West Chu language and did not have the translator translate for him.
Mo Chuan knew that this was their East Qinâs greatest respect, so he gave a slight nod. In front of everyoneâs eyes, he walked down the stand and walked in front of the two of them.
Although he was facing Na Mu Cuo, his eyes kept staring at her.
She half lowered her head and he could only see her black hair and beautiful white chin. He could also see her two rows of dense and long lashes slightly trembling.
Whatâs wrong, why was she upset and flustered? Was it because he was near? Or was it because she didnât have confidence in winning?
Mo Chuanâs expression was calm as water, but his heart burned like intense flames. He did not move his gaze from her face at all.
âYour majesty, this prince did not ask you to admire the beauty of your countryâs princess. Why does your majesty keep staring at the princess without turning?â
Na Mu Cuo looked at Mo Chuan with a ghost of a smile as he blurted this out without hesitation.
Chen Ningâs body slightly trembled. She looked up and perfectly met gazes with Mo Chuan.
Her eyes were clear and bright with a bit of water sparkling in it. Just a single glance was enough to make his heart beat fast and his breathing become rushed.
