Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne

Chu Ning showed no sign of weakness in the face of Bai Zong's provocation.

Without waiting for the other party to speak, he took the initiative to challenge!

Bai Zong was extremely excited and immediately sent someone to inform the Qin Emperor Ying Zheng.

Xianyang Palace.

In the huge hall, Ying was working at his desk reviewing memorials.

Suddenly, the sound of hurried footsteps disturbed the peace in the hall.

A soldier in armor came to report: "Your Majesty, Songyuan Marquis and the King of Chu have made an appointment for a battle. Both sides will bring 100 cavalrymen to the parade ground, regardless of life or death."

"Marquis Songyuan feels that this matter is of great importance, and I ask Your Majesty to go and see it in person."

Ying Zheng's face darkened, he put down the memorial in his hand, and said coldly: "Nonsense, how can we fight at this time?"

The soldier lowered his head and said nothing.

Yingzheng stood up and paced back and forth, finally narrowing his eyes and said coldly: "Immediately notify all the generals to go to the parade ground to watch the battle."

"Also, send someone to invite Changping, and ask her to go out of the palace with me to watch the battle."

"Yes!" the soldier responded and immediately went down to pass on the order.

Three quarters of an hour later, at the gate of the palace.

The imperial guards escorted Ying Zheng and Princess Changping to the training ground.

On the way, Princess Changping's face was full of joy.

Ying Zheng couldn't help but tease: "Ever since I asked you to find a husband, I haven't seen you smile for a long time. What's the matter? Are you really in love with Chu Ning?"

Princess Changping rolled her eyes: "Father said he was looking for a wife, but in fact he wanted me to marry Bai Zong."

How could she not know her father's little thoughts?

In the name of seeking a bride, they also invited people from other dynasties to come here, but in fact they just wanted to take the opportunity to let her marry Bai Zong.

For this reason, Bai Zong's martial arts are so high that no one can be his opponent.

Ying Zheng became unhappy when he heard this.

"It's not like I haven't given others a chance. Since it's a marriage proposal, everyone is a possibility, but Bai Zong's possibility is higher."

Ying Zheng looked puzzled, turned to look at her and asked, "Actually, I don't understand why you don't like Bai Zong?"

"No matter his age, martial arts, or military exploits, he is worthy of you."

He was very troubled about his daughter.

Marriage is a big matter and should be decided by parents and matchmakers, but Princess Changping just didn't want to get married.

Many princesses in the palace who were younger than Princess Changping had married, but Princess Changping was the only one who didn't want to get married.

"What's so good about getting married!"

Princess Changping snorted: "I still have to go to the battlefield in the future. If I get married, I will definitely not be able to go to the battlefield."

Yingzheng shook his head, looking speechless.

"Actually, I know that you like Chu Ning, right?"

Princess Changping's face changed at Ying Zheng's words: "Father, what are you talking about? Who likes that guy?"

"Look at you. I just said it casually, and you are so nervous."

Ying Zheng sighed: "It seems that the rumors are true, you really like him, but I have to say it first, my daughter can never be someone else's concubine!"

He was reminding Princess Changping that Chu Ning already had a wife. Even if you liked Chu Ning, it was useless. You couldn't become someone else's concubine, right?

As expected, these words made Princess Changping's face darken: "I won't talk to you anymore!"

When you can't win the argument, just throw a tantrum.

This is only the case when she is facing her father. If someone else said this, she would definitely strike back with her sword.

Seeing this, Ying Zheng's face became even uglier.

He is now more and more certain that his daughter likes Chu Ning!

But it doesn’t matter. As long as Bai Zong defeats Chu Ning today, I believe his daughter will change her mind.

Women all like strong men.

Changping had only spent some time with Chu Ning and witnessed how powerful Chu Ning was.

But as long as Changping sees how powerful Bai Zong is and that Bai Zong can defeat Chu Ning, his mind will definitely change.

While they were lost in thought, the two had already arrived at the training ground.

At this time, officials and people who received the news had gathered here.

The city defense camp in the city was dispatched to clear a path here, and the imperial guards slowly entered the parade ground along the path.

In the huge parade ground, two cavalry units stood in the east and west directions respectively, and there was a pergola at the northernmost position.

Yingzheng came down to the pavilion surrounded by the imperial guards.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!" The ministers bowed and saluted.

Ying Zheng nodded slightly: "No need to be polite, I just came here to see the fun."

He looked at Bai Zong in the crowd and asked with a smile, "Marquis Songyuan, this battle concerns the reputation of our dynasty. Are you sure?"

Bai Zong stepped forward and saluted, saying in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, please rest assured. Our cavalry is so powerful that we will be able to destroy the cavalry of the Chu Dynasty with ease."

"Hahahaha, very good!"

Ying Zheng laughed loudly and said, "I like your enthusiasm. If you can defeat the Chu cavalry today, I will definitely reward you handsomely!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Bai Zong was overjoyed.

Afterwards, Ying Zheng turned his attention to Chu Ning and the other two, whom he had never met before.

"Are you Chu Ning?"

"It is this king!"

Chu Ning bowed and smiled, "I have long heard that His Majesty the Emperor of Qin is a man of great talent and vision. Seeing him today, I can see that his reputation is indeed well-deserved."

Ying Zheng chuckled and said, "It's just an empty name, but I have often heard of your great name, Chu Ning.

Not only do all the officials praise you highly, but even Changping admires you very much and often mentions you in front of me.

However, reputation is just reputation after all. Whether it is really as rumored or not, we have to see it for ourselves.

Although today's battle is a matter of life and death, it cannot damage the harmony between our two dynasties. It is just a simple exchange of ideas. What do you think, King Chu?"

The words were spoken beautifully, worthy of an emperor.

Only the Emperor of Qin would dare to say that he could kill someone else without hurting the relationship!

This was the first time Chu Ning witnessed how powerful Ying Zheng was. He couldn't help but narrow his eyes, and a hint of caution flashed across his face.

"Your Majesty the Great Qin Emperor's words are exactly what I want!"

Chu Ning narrowed his eyes and laughed loudly, "I was just worried that if I killed all the cavalry, I might not be able to leave Yangcheng.

Now that you have said this, I feel much more relieved and can fight with all my strength!"

When these words were spoken, all officials were furious.

"presumptuous!"

"Be bold!"

"How arrogant! How can your Chu cavalry be a match for my Qin cavalry?"

Everyone was very angry, and even Bai Zong couldn't help but taunt him: "King of Chu, you don't think that just because you destroyed Zhao, your cavalry is invincible, right?"

"Humph, today I will let you see what it means to be the best cavalryman in the world!"

After saying this, Bai Zong quickly walked outside the pavilion and shouted loudly in the direction of the cavalry:

"My fellow soldiers, your majesty has ordered that this battle be a matter of life or death. The King of Chu has also said that you can kill as much as you want!"

Upon hearing this, the Qin cavalry shouted in unison: "No matter life or death, kill! Kill! Kill!"

Amidst the earth-shaking roar, murderous intent gathered in the air, forming a powerful momentum.

Seeing this, Chu Ning sneered and said, "White Horse Cavalry, don't embarrass me today. Show your true abilities and let the Qin Cavalry see how powerful you are!"

"kill!"

At the command, the white horse cavalry rushed straight towards the Qin cavalry like a tiger descending from the mountain.

The Qin cavalry was not to be outdone and rode forward to meet them!

The war is about to break out!
