Chapter 778 The Pearl of the Grasslands (3)
However, this is destined to be nothing but wishful thinking.
Wangyou recently discovered that she was running into the princes a lot more often, but they were all talking nonsense.
What nonsense about the feng shui of the Forbidden City being good for people? She would definitely be even more beautiful in the Forbidden City than she is now.
If the Forbidden City could sustain people, then anywhere in the world could. Haven't you seen how the wronged souls in the Forbidden City are piled up like mountains?
And what's with all this flaunting of their status and promising to be second only to ten thousand people? What kind of nonsense is this?
Wangyou looked completely bewildered, her eyes unusually showing a hint of confusion.
"They want to lure you over there," Xie Yuchen said, ruffling Wangyou's hair.
"What? Your seduction is so subtle, and you've messed up my hair again!" Wangyou said angrily, touching her slightly frizzy hair.
"It's my fault, how about I braid your hair nicely?"
"Then hurry up, or I'll punish you if it doesn't look good," Wangyou said haughtily.
"Yes, my dear wife." Xie Yuchen didn't care about those princes, so naturally he wasn't jealous or anything.
Xie Yuchen is very skillful; he quickly styled Wangyou's hair into a new look, and it looked quite nice.
"I like this hairstyle. I'm going to have Mina learn it so she can braid it for me next time."
"Was my writing bad?"
"Okay, but I can't just get up and call you over to braid my hair, can I? We're not officially married yet!" Wangyou said honestly.
"Yes, when can we get married? I can't wait any longer." Xie Yuchen reached out and hugged him.
"We're all still young, we're at least eighteen years old." Wangyou smiled, in a very good mood.
"Hmm, it will take another three years and eight months, that's a long time."
"It won't be long, only three years, it will pass quickly. Come on, let's go to the training ground. Today my father said he would show the Emperor the Bagua Formation, let's go and see the excitement."
"Alright, Zhang Qilin and the others have gone ahead of time. I just don't know if the emperor will send someone to break through the formation."
"Perhaps. They consider themselves the Celestial Empire and will not allow themselves to be inferior to the Khorchin."
"Then we'll just wait and see what happens."
The two held hands and soon arrived at the training ground. Zhang Qilin, who had arrived early, was unhappy to see the two being so intimate and came over to take Wangyou's other hand.
"Linlin, look! Achen braided my hair, isn't it pretty?"
"It's beautiful. I'll make one for you next time."
"Okay!" Wangyou nodded happily. Zhang Qilin suddenly stopped being angry. Getting angry with her was pointless and would only make him angry.
"No, I'm saying that's enough, you three. We don't want to eat any more of this dog food," Qi Sinian said with a strange laugh.
"I'm so envious! You should find one too!" Wangyou said smugly, waving her hands.
"You make it sound so easy, but it's not that easy to find."
"Well, there's nothing we can do about it then. You can only be envious!"
"I must get married, and then show off my love in front of you all!" The fat man had lofty ambitions.
"That would be great! I'll definitely give you a big red envelope then!" Xie Yuchen said with a smile.
The six of them standing together were quite eye-catching, not to mention that their looks were arguably the best in the room, so it was inevitable that they would attract attention.
This was the first time Wangyou had seen all the members of the royal family who had come to Khorchin. The older man in the middle should be Emperor Kangxi. He had an imperial aura, and he looked quite good without any comparison.
The person standing next to him should be the Crown Prince. He looks alright now, but I wonder if he will be the Crown Prince for more than forty years, just like in the official history, and eventually be driven crazy by his own father.
The following should be the other princes, the youngest of whom should be the tenth prince, and the thirteenth and fourteenth princes.
"Father!" Wangyou went over and greeted her father, "Greetings, Your Majesty!"
They casually greeted the emperor as a courtesy. Xie Yuchen and the others also gave a brief greeting to the emperor, but they did not perform any formal bowing.
Temu was truly surprised, because he himself had never seen his daughter perform the proper greeting. Kangxi was afraid of embarrassing himself, but seeing this, he also knew who among them held the highest status.
To his surprise, one of these people was a woman who held a high position; he wondered who she was.
"His Majesty is preparing to select some brave warriors from the Qing Dynasty to challenge the Eight Trigrams Formation. Why don't you join us and take a look?" Temujin said with a smile.
“Great, brother! Achen and Linlin took a whole day and night to get out. I wonder how long it will take the warriors of the Qing Dynasty!” Wangyou nodded and said.
"What formation? You two have been using it for a whole day and night!" the fat man exclaimed.
"Yeah, Fatty, why don't you and Chaoyang give it a try too!"
"Forget it, I won't embarrass myself. It took them a whole day and night to get in. I might get in alive, but I might not get out alive." The fat man refused outright.
"You're a person of status, how could you be so quick to decide?" Qi Sinian said with a laugh.
"If you're so good, then you do it. Let's see what the young Mongolian prince is all about."
"I'll let it go. I'm a young prince of Mongolia. Today is the home ground of the Qing warriors. I shouldn't steal the spotlight."
"It's rare to see you so polite. Looking at it this way, you really do have the air of a young prince," Xie Yuchen said with a smile.
Amidst laughter and conversation, the group settled into their seats, quietly awaiting the start of the show.
As soon as the Bagua Formation appeared, the expressions of Kangxi and others on the stage changed. This formation, roughly calculated, required at least 30,000 people to form. Judging from its imposing presence, it was clear that each individual member was not to be underestimated. Yet, the Borjigit clan alone had organized 30,000 people.
What are the Khorchin trying to do? Are they planning a rebellion?
"This was something my son and daughter came up with out of boredom. My daughter drew the battle formation diagrams, and Tolui did the troop training. Your Majesty, do you think it's feasible?" Temujin said with a smile when he saw that Kangxi's expression was not good.
"Like father, like son! Tolui and Wangyou are truly a sight to behold!" Kangxi said with a forced smile.
"Your Majesty's sons are all outstanding individuals; Tolui and Wangyou are merely minor figures," Temujin said modestly.
As they were talking, the challenge began, and unsurprisingly, the group was immediately entangled once they entered.
"What do you think about me modifying this formation again? Turning the Gate of Life into the Gate of Death, and the Gate of Death into the Gate of Life, and then setting up a formation within a formation at the Gate of Life? The power should double again," Wangyou said, eating grapes and watching the formation below operate.
“That’s not bad. I think we can also set up formation evolutions, such as changing the eight gates to four gates,” Qi Sinian said with great interest.
"Good idea. Once the emperor and the others leave, we'll hand it over to you," Wangyou said, clapping her hands.
"No, I was just sharing an idea, how did it become my job!" Qi Sinian was completely bewildered.
“After we see the Emperor and the others off, I’m going to the beach with Achen and Linlin to train the navy. You’re the perfect candidate.”
