Chapter 961
As soon as Murong Qing left, Ling Yu immediately asked Tao Zi to find Lu Nan.
"Lu Nan, go and check for me which ladies Princess Danruo has invited, how many are good at martial arts, and how many can play Cuju!"
Lu Nan was stunned for a moment and asked doubtfully: "Princess, what are you going to do?"
"I want to know something first! This Princess Danruo seems to be coming with bad intentions!"
Ling Yu didn't believe that Xiahou Danruo simply wanted to hold a birthday party, so it would be right to prepare it in advance.
Lu Nan nodded and went out to find someone to inquire.
Later, Lu Nan sent news that among the young ladies invited by Xiahou Danruo, only three or four were practicing martial arts, and Jiang Yu was among them.
In the list, Ling Yan, An Xin, Ling Wan, Yu Lan, Zeng Ziyu, and Qin Ruosi were all on it.
The most distinguished guests were the Queen Mother, Emperor Wu'an, Queen Wei and Concubine Shao.
Ling Yu looked at the list and fell into deep thought. This Xiahou Danruo had invited almost all the children of dignitaries in the imperial capital. He was obviously well prepared!
When Xiao Lintian came back, he saw Ling Yu's solemn face and asked, "What are you thinking about? Look at your sad face!"
Ling Yu told Xiao Lintian her worries, and Xiao Lintian smiled and said, "It's just a simple birthday party. Princess Danruo shouldn't hold a Cuju competition!"
"What if we meet?" Ling Yu was not optimistic and said worriedly: "Even if the person invited is good at martial arts, he may not be a Cuju master!"
"You men are having a military competition between the four countries. Princess Danruo will not target you! But this may not be the case for these wealthy ladies. She only needs to overwhelm us in terms of momentum, and then she will have the capital to show off in the military competition!"
"Besides, I think Princess Danruo will mainly target me this time!" Ling Yu gave Xiao Lintian a roll of her eyes: "You don't think Xiahou Danruo has given up on you, do you?"
Xiao Lintian's face twitched. He had long forgotten that Xiahou Danruo confessed to him in public that day on the street. He only remembered it when Ling Yu mentioned it.
"It's okay. It doesn't matter if you lose. No one is omnipotent! Just wait for the military competition and I'll get it back for you!"
Xiao Lintian said confidently: "I have practiced your mother's martial arts secrets. My martial arts have progressed rapidly in the past two days. No one from Dong Qi or Nanyue will be my opponent!"
"Xiao Lintian, don't be arrogant!"
Ling Yu immediately warned: "Since that kind of spiritual power cultivation method exists in the world, it proves that there are still people in the world who can do it!"
"What's more, military competitions are not about fighting alone. What's important is teamwork. Your strength alone cannot represent the strength of a group!"
Ling Yu's heart moved as she spoke, and she said, "When Dan Ruo's birthday party is over, please take me to see the team you chose for the competition! Maybe I can help!"
"this......"
Xiao Lintian hesitated but nodded.
He was very confident in the team he led, but he thought that Ling Yu had some unique ideas. Maybe he could ask her to help and make some useful suggestions!
After being comforted by Xiao Lintian, Ling Yu's worries were reduced a lot, but she still wrote a few letters and sent them to several martial arts women, suggesting that they let them practice Cuju in private.
But Jiang Yu replied and said that he would practice according to Ling Yu's wishes.
The other ladies didn't know whether they didn't take Ling Yu's words seriously or had other considerations. No one replied.
Ling Yu was helpless, thinking that she had tried her best, and if they didn't want to listen, just forget it, and then she would act according to her own circumstances!
