, update the latest chapters as soon as possible!

"Prince Su, this is an unreasonable act of disrespect by my sister-in-law. I am going to apologize to the county magistrate on behalf of my sister and ask the magistrate to show my kindness. Google search to read"

Su Xinyi saw a man wearing bamboo green clothes striding over. His face was somewhat similar to Pei Nianwei, but his eyebrows were more determined and his features were handsome. At this time, he looked sincere and faced Su Xinyi It's a gift.

Su Xinyi turned slightly sideways. After all, the Pei family was His Highness the Crown Prince's maternal family. Even though His Highness did not have much contact with the Pei family, she could not just accept this gift.

Pei Xuanfan looked at the actions of County Lord Yong'an and sighed slightly in his heart, then looked at his sister, "Nianwei, you still haven't apologized to County Lord."

Pei Nianwei looked at her eldest brother in shock, but he was always strict. She pursed her lips and apologized to Su Xinyi, but she still felt a little unwilling on her face.

Su Xinyi did not avoid it this time, accepted the gift, and then said: "Miss Pei, when I first entered the palace to run for election, you and I were destined to live in the same room, and we got along for many days without any grudges. Today, you are dissatisfied with me. , I hope I won’t hear it again in the future. If the Pei family or Ms. Pei really have any thoughts on the position of the Crown Princess, please go directly to His Majesty to express it, or go to His Majesty the Crown Prince to make it clear and clear. I was just Your Majesty just conferred the title, and you don’t owe the Pei family anything.”

Pei Xuanfan knew that the famous Yong'an County Lord had a bad temper and was unforgiving. He was someone who even King Rong would dare to beat. He thought that today's matter would not end well, but he did not expect that the Yong'an County Lord would just raise his hand and let go. pass.

He glanced at his sister again, and then said to County Lord Yong'an: "County Lord, please rest assured that our Pei family has no dissatisfaction with the County Lord being named the Crown Princess."

Su Xinyi nodded and said nothing more. She didn't want to get too involved with the Pei family, and it was best to stop everything in moderation.

The Duke of Qi's mansion had little contact with the Pei family. At this time, Pei Xuanfan apologized and left with his pale sister.

After Su Xinyi and others left, he looked at his brother and asked, "Is that Miss Pei's biological brother?"

Su Yi nodded, "The eldest son of this generation of the Pei family, Pei Xuanfan."

Su Xinyi said softly: "She looks more reliable than his sister."

Su Yi listened to her sister's words and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Su Qi, on the other hand, squeezed over, looked at his sister and said, "Pei Xuanfan, a famous talent in the capital, has been selected for the imperial examination. When the next round of scientific examinations are held, he will definitely be on the list as long as nothing happens."

Su Xinyi thought that it was no wonder that he looked extraordinary and was a great talent.

"Stop talking about this, get ready. The time is coming." Su Bei wiped his sweat and said, "Hey, King Rong's ship has arrived."

Su Xinyi looked up and saw a boat rowing towards the waterline of the lake. He was dressed in yellow and was indeed King Rong's man.

"Let's get ready too." Su Xinyi said to his brothers.

"The Zhu family's boat has also moved, let's go." Su Yi pointed to Zhu Yi's dragon boat ahead and said.

The Su brothers and sisters immediately boarded the boat. Su Xinyi was in the middle of the boat. Her hair was tied high and she was dressed in men's clothes. From a distance, no one could tell that she was a woman.

As the Su family's boat rowed to the starting point, other dragon boats rowed over one after another, and the water surface became lively for a while. The Pei family's boat was far away from them, but the Li family's boat was not far away from them.

Soon there was the sound of thunder drums. The first drum sound asked everyone to take their places, the second drum sound asked everyone to prepare, and when the third drum sounded, it was time to set off.

At this time, the shore of the lake was densely packed with people. Su Xinyi looked up and could not see anyone in the Duke of Qi's Mansion. He could only hear countless shouts passing through the water and falling into everyone's ears.

"Xiao Liu, aren't you nervous?" Su Ju was a little nervous, and her palms were all sweaty.

Su Xinyi looked at Fourth Brother and said with a smile: "Fourth Brother, we have practiced everything we should practice and done everything we can. I think we can just use our normal skills."

"Sixth sister is right." Su Chu was also a little nervous and relaxed slightly after hearing what his sister said.

At this time, I saw a sudden chaos on the shore, and then I heard someone shouting, "Your Majesty is here! Your Majesty is here to watch the battle!"

Su Xinyi and his brothers were stunned, Your Majesty is here?

I really didn’t hear anything about it before. Is this an impromptu idea by Your Majesty?

Su Xinyi subconsciously went to see King Rong, and saw the surprised look on King Rong's face. It seemed that King Rong didn't know, that is, His Majesty probably wanted to come for a temporary visit.

Your Majesty is here, where is His Royal Highness?

Although Su Xinyi had invited His Highness before, His Highness was injured and was not sure how he was recovering, so he was not sure whether he would come.

Countless people saluted and kowtowed in one direction, and the people on the dragon boat also kowtowed in that direction, and everyone shouted long live the mountain.

The drum sounded twice.

Su Xinyi didn't even see where His Majesty was. He immediately sat down, holding the oar in his hand, ready to go.

The hustle and bustle of conversation on the lake suddenly quieted down. The surrounding dragon boats all adjusted their directions, and the playful expressions on everyone's faces suddenly disappeared.

It was Su Xinyi's first time to participate in such a competition. At this moment, he suddenly felt a sense of restlessness brought about by the upcoming competition.

When the drum sounded three times, all the dragon boats jumped out instantly.

Su Xinyi and his brothers rowed forward hard, but still retained some energy for the final sprint.

At this time, in the private room of Duke Qi's mansion, everyone was staring nervously at the lake. All eyes were fixed on the dark side of the boat.

On such a festive day, these people are wearing all black, pitch black, what's so good about it.

Su Jingmo couldn't help but complain in his heart, Su Xixian's handkerchief was crumpled into a ball due to nervousness, staring at the lake tightly, muttering, "Win the first place, win the first place."

Su Jingmo's mouth twitched, what a dream.

The old lady didn't come today, the first lady went to Pingning Guard, the second lady, the third lady and the fourth lady all came, the three of them sat in front of the window and looked at the situation outside the window, and couldn't help but stand up.

In addition to watching the game, the third lady was still muttering about the emperor's arrival, thinking that it was really different with Prince Rong participating in the competition, and His Majesty actually came to watch his son's competition. His Majesty really liked this son the most.

Thinking of the crown princess in her own family, she couldn't help but worry that His Majesty's favor for Prince Rong was not a good thing for the crown prince.

The third wife was upset. When she looked at the lake again, she opened her eyes wide, "Hey, who's the first one?"

Prince Rong's fleet is yellow, and yellow is now ranked... fourth.

The second wife smiled and said, "I don't know much, it seems to be a folk dragon boat team, it's pretty good, and the speed is really fast."

"What about our family?" The third wife opened her eyes wide and began to count. Finally, she found her own dark shadow in the ninth position and immediately said happily, "Ninth!"

After all, everyone thought it would be at the bottom, but now it can be ranked ninth. In the eyes of the third wife, it is like a poor student suddenly counterattacked and became a top student. She was so happy that she didn't even care about Prince Rong, and her eyes were fixed on her dragon boat.

She said that this color is unlucky, it would be better to change it to a festive color, it will definitely be faster than this!

At this moment, something unexpected happened. Suddenly, a dragon boat on the lake capsized, and this capsize immediately knocked down another boat next to it. These dragon boats were very fast, and at this moment, something unexpected happened, and the boats that did not have time to change lanes capsized one after another.

Sighs were heard from the shore from time to time. This kind of accident happens every year, but it seems to have happened earlier this year.

At this time, Su Xinyi was a little far away from the place where the boat capsized. He only heard a burst of exclamations, but there was no time to see what happened. They continued to rush forward.

Everyone's forehead was already full of sweat at this time. Who would have thought that they would actually row to the first echelon? Such an unexpected surprise made them dare not slack off at all, and they gritted their teeth and rushed forward.

The lake water wet her cheeks and clothes, but Su Xinyi didn't care, and her eyes were only staring at the front.

Well, they were not far from King Rong's yellow dragon boat, and maybe they could catch up if they tried hard.

Su Xinyi only felt her heart pounding, and she paddled hard with her arms, not caring about anything else. Although the focus was on participation, she still wanted to get a good result.

At this moment, the dragon boat next to her suddenly flipped over, and the people on the boat fell into the water like dumplings. The water surface suddenly raised waves, and the boat of Duke Qi's Mansion shook.

They had experience in capsizing. The brothers and sisters of Duke Qi's Mansion immediately sent the boat forward with the help of the ups and downs of the waves, and then everyone accelerated instantly. Even so, the boat was a little shaky. They tried their best to stabilize the boat and avoid this pit.

Everyone was so nervous that even their breathing seemed to be hidden. They didn't dare to be distracted at all, and pushed forward, pushed, and pushed again!

They reacted quickly and hid, but the dragon boat on the other side was not so lucky and turned upside down. I don't know who laughed. At such a tense time, this laugh eased the tense atmosphere.

"Whose boat capsized?" Su Ju asked after taking a breath. He was so nervous that he didn't dare to look.

Su Bei wiped his sweat, "It seems to be the Li family. I saw a piece of blue in the corner of my eye."

The Li family wore blue clothes.

Su Xinyi didn't pay attention, and asked after hearing this, "Isn't the Li family's boat quite far away from us?"

She remembered that there seemed to be several boats between them.

"After everyone rushed out, they must have quickly occupied the road again. Isn't our boat the same?" Su Qi replied.

Su Xinyi didn't pay attention. Anyway, it was the eldest brother who was at the helm, so she just followed and exerted force.

"Then who capsized the Li family?" Su Ju asked.

"How do I know?" Su Chu shook his head.

"Don't talk anymore, Prince Rong and the others are speeding up, should we speed up?" Su Yi spoke.

"Speed ​​up!" Everyone said in unison. Before, they only thought about not being at the bottom, but who would have thought that they could squeeze into the top ten. Now that they have entered the first echelon, can they continue to fight?

Even if they can't get first place, the top three is fine. They are not greedy.

There were exclamations from time to time around. There were many boats participating today. If they couldn't keep up with the speed, they would probably squeeze together, which would easily cause friction and loading accidents.

The finish line was not far away. They had seen the red silk. Su Xinyi felt that she seemed to hear the voices of the fourth and fifth sisters, but she was not sure, and she couldn't turn around to look, so she could only continue to move forward.

As soon as her boat accelerated, she immediately surpassed another boat. At this time, the hard training for a month finally showed its effect, and the stamina was strong.

Soon they reached the sixth position, and the boat of King Rong in front also went one step further. Su Xinyi looked at his dragon boat and it seemed that there were only two boats left in front of him.

The quietness in front was completely different from the lively scenery behind. Su Xinyi could even hear the heavy breathing on the boat next door.

Su Xinyi always felt that he was strong, and his arms were a little sore at this time. It was very hard to maintain the same action for such a long time. It was not easy to row mechanically and repeatedly.

"Come on, hold on, we are fourth!" Su Yi suddenly said loudly to encourage his brothers and sisters.

Su Yi had never been so nervous in his life. Before the competition, everyone felt that there was little hope and the most important thing was to participate. However, they did not expect that they would often capsize during boat training. They were very experienced and avoided the crisis of capsizing.

Su Xinyi suddenly remembered the words of Prince Rong and said to his brothers: "Your Highness Prince Rong said that the prize set by His Majesty for the first place is a luminous cup. If you want it, speed up!"

"Luminous cup?" A scream came from the boat next door, "Brothers, go ahead, His Majesty will give the first place a luminous cup!"

This voice spread instantly on the wide lake, and the crowd seemed to be crazy, watching the dragon boats of each family desperately moving forward.

Su Xinyi: ...

Su Chu couldn't help laughing.

Not only Su Chu, but all the other brothers of the Su family were happy.

"Su Xinyi, you are really great!"

Su Xinyi heard the angry shout of Prince Rong.

She didn't expect that the one next door was so powerful.

The night-light cup was so attractive. This was a reward from His Majesty. Not to mention that the night-light cup itself was very rare, just the imperial gift could be a family heirloom.

Everyone rushed forward like crazy, and Su Yi shouted, "Quick, speed up!"

Although he couldn't get the first place, he couldn't lose face!

Prince Rong's shout let people know that the Princess of Yong'an was also there, and it was lively now.

Su Xinyi didn't want to be too embarrassed, so she paddled forward with all her might. Everyone worked together to move forward in a rhythm. As long as the rhythm was unified, it would save effort. If the rhythm was messed up, it would be much more laborious.

However, the previous shouts of the Wind-Earing Man next door and the King Rong disrupted the rhythm of the entire lake, splashing water everywhere, and the Su family's boat was almost overturned by the waves rising from the surrounding water surface.

Suddenly, Su Ju at the stern of the boat shouted, and then Su Xinyi felt a strong force coming from the stern, and their boat was knocked forward for several feet, and then the man next door who was shouting wailed and instantly became a drowned chicken.

Everyone didn't know what happened, but they absolutely couldn't stop and kept rushing forward.

"Fifth brother, what's going on?" Su Bei couldn't suppress his curiosity and asked in a low voice.

Su Chu panted and said, "A fight broke out. I don't know what happened to the boat behind us, but one of them hit our boat directly. Fortunately, it hit the stern."

"Can they fight at this time?" Su Bei said while rowing hard, gritting his teeth, "Wouldn't it be better to row hard if you have the strength?"

"I don't know, it seems to be a personal grudge." Su Chu muttered again.

As soon as the voice fell, Su Xinyi heard the fifth brother shouting in a shrill voice, "Hurry, hurry up, someone is chasing us from behind, and they are about to hit us!"

As Su Chu's voice fell, Su Xinyi felt the boat being hit again, and the force was stronger than before, and the boat shook suddenly.

Su Xinyi immediately turned sideways to press the boat, using the skill of a thousand-pound weight, and took the opportunity to look back. He was shocked to find that it was the Zhu family's boat that fell into the water.

Zhu Chanyi surfaced and shouted to Su Xinyi, "Someone is trying to ram the boat, hurry up!"

Su Xinyi immediately knew that someone had rammed the Zhu family's boat, and then the Zhu family's boat rammed them.

Su Xinyi didn't care about anything else and shouted to his eldest brother, "Brother, let's speed up!"

They used all their remaining strength at this time. If they delay like this, they will become dumplings in the soup!

They have walked ninety-nine steps out of a hundred. Now they are in the water. I'm afraid they will vomit to death!

"Go!" Su Yi shouted.

The Su brothers and sisters immediately released their remaining strength to accelerate with all their strength, and their boat jumped out at once.

At this time, the leading boat was a purple boat and a dark blue boat, followed closely by the yellow boat of King Rong. Su Xinyi and his team rushed to the fourth position.

Su Xinyi shouted to Prince Rong, "Your Highness Prince Rong!"

Prince Rong looked back when he heard Su Xinyi's voice, his face changed. How could he catch up so quickly? He immediately shouted, "Speed ​​up, speed up, don't let Su Xinyi catch up!"

He didn't believe that he couldn't beat Su Xinyi in any one thing!

Prince Rong held his breath and rushed forward immediately. This acceleration immediately rushed to the middle of the dark blue boat. Prince Rong's boat continued to rush forward. The dark blue boat also accelerated immediately, and it immediately became a stalemate. The first four boats were almost connected at the bow and stern.

Su Xinyi didn't expect that they actually had a chance to enter the top three, and his eyes lit up.

Wow, what luck.

The red silk was just in front, only a few dozen meters away, very close. It seemed that he could hit the red silk in just one breath.

The four boats were close to each other, and the arc of the water waves became larger and larger with their movements.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Su Xinyi immediately said, "Brother, let's get out of the way."

Why did the boats behind capsize so much?

The boats were close together, the waves were big, and if the dragon boats were not well controlled, they would be easily capsized by the waves.

Su Yi immediately turned slightly to avoid the three boats that were biting each other.

The slight adjustment of their direction slowed down their speed, and the three boats in front immediately distanced themselves from them.

Prince Rong wanted to win the first place, and he led his people to rush forward with slogans. His momentum was really unstoppable and shocking.

Su Xinyi was shocked. She didn't expect that Prince Rong had such a side.

As the competition became more and more intense, the people on the shore became excited, and the sound of cheering came one after another. It was unknown who was cheering for whom.

Su Xinyi's heart was beating violently again. This was something she had never encountered in her previous life. It turned out that the competition was so interesting.

Because accidents happened frequently, the danger and fun increased, but this greatly aroused everyone's interest in watching the competition.

They stared at the front closely. The cheers in Su Xinyi's mind had faded like a tide. Her eyes were only on the three dragon boats that were tightly together in front of her. As long as they surpassed them, their boat would be the first!

Speed ​​up!

Speed ​​up! !

Su Xinyi's arms were already very sore. Except for the feeling when she first learned archery, she hadn't felt this way for many years.

She knew that this was caused by using her strength to the extreme. The key point was coming, and her strength was about to run out.

But we can't relax. Even if we can't get the top three, we have to keep the fourth place!

Su Jingmo and Su Xixian's voices are almost hoarse. Fourth place!

They dare not even think about it. What is the goal of the competition?

Their goal is just not to be the last one, but now?

Fourth place!

On the highest stand, the emperor squinted his eyes and looked at the lake. He said suspiciously to the prince beside him: "Is the yellow one Prince Rong?"

Yan Junchu smiled and said: "Yes, it is the dragon boat of the seventh brother. It seems that there is hope to win the first place."

The emperor raised his eyebrows slightly, "I didn't expect this kid to have a hope. I thought he was bragging again."

Yan Junchu listened to his father's words, and his expression did not change, but his eyes did not look at Prince Rong's boat, but kept staring at Su Xinyi's boat.

It was said that as long as we don't count last, it will be fine. As a result, we have rushed into the top four.

Sure enough, Su Xinyi's words can't be believed!

Fourth place is also very good. The people of the Su family, except Su Yi and her, were still scholars a month ago.

Seeing that they were getting closer and closer to the red silk, the result was about to happen. At this moment, the purple dragon boat suddenly shook, and then the boat of Prince Rong passed by. The distance between the two boats was too close, and the purple boat suddenly capsized without warning in front of everyone.

Prince Rong's boat was unprepared, and their boat was covered by the purple boat without warning.

Su Xinyi heard Prince Rong exclaimed, and watched the purple dragon boat capsize and crush Prince Rong's boat. When Prince Rong's boat capsized, the blue boat was affected and immediately shook. Although they tried to keep their balance, they still couldn't escape becoming dumplings in the soup.

Su Xinyi and their boat was just three feet away from them, and with the last momentum, it hit the red silk.

First!

This is really falling from the sky!

At this moment, the shore and the water were quiet.

It was outrageous.

The moment Prince Rong surfaced, he saw the moment when Su Xinyi's boat hit the red silk.

His eyes were wide open. Is this okay?

Is the result of his desperate efforts to let Su Xinyi take advantage?

Is there something wrong with his eyes, or is he dreaming?

He must be dreaming, right?

The six brothers and sisters of Su Xinyi sat on the boat and looked at each other. So they are the first?

"Sixth sister, am I dreaming?" Su Bei murmured.

Isn't it okay as long as they don't get the last place?

Su Xinyi also felt like she was dreaming. She subconsciously went to find Rong Wang's dragon boat. Across the water, she saw Rong Wang trying hard to hang down from the water. The annoyed look on his face made Su Xinyi wake up immediately. She looked at her third brother and said seriously: "Third brother, pie in the sky."
