Su Qi'an's sudden intervention caught everyone off guard. Their eyes widened as they looked at the swinging arrows on the ring.
There are very strict rules for the martial arts competition between Daliang and Fusang. No one is allowed to intervene until the winner is determined by the warriors on both sides.
Su Qi'an's arrow was a serious violation of the rules, and he had a weapon in his hand. After the arrow was shot, his hand holding the bow did not put down, but aimed at the ring from a distance.
Su Qi'an's intervention naturally caused a protest from the Fuso delegation. Under this protest, everyone's eyes were attracted.
Just at this moment, Musashigawa was panting heavily, his eyes were gloomy, his fists were clenched, and he rushed straight towards Su Yong like a violent beast.
At this time, Su Yong had almost no power to fight back, and at such a distance, it was impossible to dodge.
Just when Musashawa was about to finish off Su Yong, a sharp sound of breaking wind sounded again.
Musashigawa's painful wails rang out from the ring. Everyone looked up and saw that Musashigawa's arm was pierced by an arrow and was dripping with blood.
Musashigawa held his injured arm with anger in his eyes, staring at Su Qi'an in the private room above.
Without Musashikawa opening his mouth, the people around the stands could guess who the person who shot the arrow just now was.
In the private room of the arena competition, there was someone who was good at marksmanship and even carried a bow. Who else could be there besides Su Qi'an.
If Su Qi'an's first arrow was because he couldn't bear it and broke the rules, then the second arrow had a hint of revenge.
Su Qi'an's actions completely angered the Fusang delegation, and they angrily yelled at Su Qi'an.
"Dongshan Hou, what you did is too much! You openly killed me, the Fuso warrior, in a martial arts competition. Isn't this just a method used by Daliang because his skills are inferior to others? Isn't it too despicable?"
"That's right, although our country, Fusang, is weak and not as good as Great Liang, we definitely can't be stepped on by anyone. If the two princes who presided over the competition in the arena today don't give an explanation, Great Liang will prepare to meet Fuso’s anger.”
The Fuso delegation's angry rebuke and the seriousness of their words could be felt by everyone present.
If this matter is not handled well, it may lead to a war between the two countries, which is no joke.
Su Zhe and Su Tai who were sitting in the private room did not avoid it, walked to the private stand and said softly.
"Dongshan Hou, I respect your ability, but did you go too far in today's martial arts competition? Usually, I can turn a blind eye to your arrogance and domineering behavior, but today, if you don't give me any advice, Explain, you can’t leave.”
Su Tai's speech was somewhat cold. He openly intervened in the competition in the ring and slandered the contestants. To put it bluntly, this was a malicious attempt to provoke conflicts between the two countries and to trigger a war between the two countries.
It would not be an exaggeration to even execute such a person.
When Su Tai opened his mouth, everyone present could feel his anger. Su Qian was the first person to make a dignified prince lose his temper openly.
Not long after Su Tai's voice fell, some comments arose among the people.
"I think this Dongshan Hou did it on purpose. There was originally a chance for a comeback in this round, but if he messed it up in the middle, how could the competition in the ring continue?"
"No, after all, he is a military lord of Daliang, and he is also a member of the royal family. Even if he is arrogant and willful, he must have some restraint. How can he be so indifferent to right and wrong?"
"Humph, it's not because of his success a year ago that the military lord of Daliang, who is in his twenties, controls the army. Any young man would be in trouble, let alone him."
"The negotiation with Fusang this time is so unsatisfactory, Dongshan Hou must bear a lot of responsibility. He is definitely harboring evil intentions. Keeping such a person here is a disaster. Keeping such a disaster will not do us any good in Great Liang. .”
"Catch him and punish him severely, and give us an explanation."
These comments that came from nowhere, came and went, not only getting louder and louder, but also spreading at the speed of the wind.
Not to mention that all the people in the audience held this attitude, but at least three to four thousand people complained and requested that Su Qi'an be arrested immediately and severely punished.
The number of three or four thousand people is not that many among the thirty thousand people. However, when almost all the people in the audience remained silent, the voices of these three or four thousand people seemed so abrupt.
Even if some people turned a deaf ear and pretended not to hear, the gathering momentum still created a certain scale.
Su Qi'an, who was in the private room, glanced around at the comments asking for his arrest.
Suddenly, the noise in the area he glanced at was obviously quieter, but as Su Qian's eyes left, these chirping sounds became louder again.
Su Qian didn't care about these people at all. He looked away, glanced at the ring below, and jumped down in front of everyone.
The distance between the private room and the ring is not far, and the height is not high. After living in Daliang for so many years, Su Qi'an has acquired some martial arts skills.
Especially for Qinggong, it can still be handled at a height of about three to four feet.
Su Qi'an landed steadily on the middle stage under the gaze of everyone.
He walked quickly to Su Yong's side, squatted down, and checked the injuries on Su Yong's body.
Most of Su Yong's injuries were skin injuries, which were not serious. The most serious thing was that his arm was almost punctured. The blood had solidified, and the bones were clearly visible in the rotten skin.
"Su Yong, thank you for your hard work. I'm sorry. It was my decision. It was my fault that he suffered such serious injuries. Don't blame me."
Su Yong, who was exhausted, shook his head and murmured softly, "First... Sir, there is no need to blame yourself. I can't blame you. Su Yong failed to complete the task, please punish me sir."
Su Qi'an grabbed Su Yong's hand, shook his head repeatedly, and said softly, "I don't blame you for this. You have done a good job. The most important thing for you now is to heal your injuries. Taking good care of your body is the greatest help to me. The rest My husband is here to do what happened next, don’t worry, I will make them pay back ten or a hundred times for the anger you suffered.”
Su Qi'an appeared in the ring, and it could be said that he directly ignored everyone present. Even the two princes, the Fuso delegation, and the Musashi River closest to him were all stunned by him.
It was not only Su Qi'an who treated them as nothing, but also Xie Cang who followed closely.
As Su Qi'an entered the ring, Xie Cang followed quickly. Behind him, followed a group of soldiers. The soldiers carried a stretcher and carefully carried Su Yong down.
During this period, Su Qi'an's eyes kept falling on Su Yong. As for the others, they were no different from the air.
Su Qi'an's disregard would only make Su Zhe, Su Tai, and the Fusang delegation even more angry.
But as Su Qi'an and Su Yong were talking, the emotional two sides remained silent in a surprisingly unanimous manner, looking coldly at Su Qi'an's performance on the ring.
Their anger is not gone, but suppressed in order to prepare for the next explosion later.
Su Qi'an entered the ring anyway, no matter how he performed, he could not escape the explanation. No matter what his explanation was, both sides had already prepared it for him. He took all the responsibility for this ring competition.
Let him show off a little now, and when the public opinion of 30,000 people is completely stirred up, no matter how eloquent Su Qi'an is, he will be drowned in the overwhelming anger of the people.
Isn't Su Qi'an the best at manipulating public opinion? This time, let him see the overwhelming anger of the people in Kyoto City.
As Su Yong was carried down, standing on the ring were Su Yong, Xie Cang, and Musashigawa, who had his arm pierced by an arrow.
With the appearance of Su Qian, Musashichuan knew that Su Yong's life could be saved. He was thinking of taking action but there was no chance.
Now that Su Yong has stepped down, there is no point in him staying. The next person who has to deal with Su Qi'an is not him, but the two princes of Great Liang and Zhaohe Renchuan.
Musashigawa was also strong-willed. After wailing a few words, he stared at Su Qi'an with cold eyes, and in front of him, he pulled out the arrow that pierced his arm.
Then without hesitation, he strode away and turned around.
But the moment he turned around, Su Qi'an, who treated him like nothing, suddenly spoke.
"Wait a minute, did I let you go? It was you and Su Yong who fought before. Your battle is over. Now it's my turn to settle the score with you."
Su Qian's sudden words shocked everyone in the audience once again.
What grudges can there be between Su Qian and Musashigawa? Never heard of it.
Even if there was, just by Su Qi'an shooting two arrows in a row, the so-called grudges had long been offset. The most important thing is that Su Qi'an's action broke the rules.
Su Qi'an didn't want to solve the trouble caused by the Fuso delegation against him, but instead took the initiative to come to provoke trouble.
This made all the people quite puzzled. Many people thought that Su Qi'an had lost his mind and how could he say such stupid things.
Musashigawa was startled when Su Qian opened his mouth. Instead of leaving in a hurry, he turned around with a slight sneer on his face and said coldly.
"Hmph, it seems that there is no grudge between me and you, Marquis Dongshan. If there is grudge, it's probably because you want to stand up for your useless bodyguard."
"What a pity. According to the rules of this arena competition, no one is allowed to interfere as long as there is no winner in the arena. If I remember correctly, this rule was formulated by your Prince of Great Liang."
"Now it's clear who broke the rules, so I don't need to repeat myself. I thought the famous Marquis Dongshan was pretty good, but now it seems I overestimated him."
"To stand out for a useless guard, this is the magnanimity of the Daliang Junhou. Tsk, tsk, tsk, it's really disappointing. This is the so-called Celestial Kingdom, but they are just a bunch of rubbish."
The sarcasm of Musashigawa's words was self-evident, and the feeling made everyone present feel quite unhappy.
But it was difficult for the common people to get angry. After all, they were the ones to blame. Su Qi'an not only refused to explain, but also tried to make trouble. This move invisibly added to Su Qi'an's negative reputation.
Su Qi'an didn't care at all about Musashigawa's taunts. Instead, he smiled and said.
"Well, you are right. I do want to stand up for my subordinates, but you are only half right. The reason for standing up is not because I am not generous enough, but because you should know what someone like you has done."
"If you don't know, it doesn't matter. I will let you know the price of doing something wrong."
