She married a dying prince and she won three babies.

Shangguan Ziqi felt contempt in his heart.

They have no internal strength at all, it's strange that they can win. They will probably be kicked off as soon as they come on the court.

The lighthouse is about ten feet high and is built layer by layer with bamboo and wood.

The lanterns on the top appear particularly bright in the night, as if calling for the challenge of the brave.

The people waiting to watch the excitement held their breath, looking forward to this fierce competition.

Yu Yuanzheng was protected by the guards and stood at the front.

Of course, there were also government runners standing in a circle to keep the people out.

"Daddy, come on." Sanbao saw his daddy's eager figure and shouted.

Shangguan Ziqi looked over and nodded to his daughter.

"Dear warriors, get ready." On the high platform next to the lighthouse, a man holding a gong shouted to remind everyone.

"Bang!"

With the sound of a gong, the game officially begins.

The contestants rushed towards the bamboo tower like arrows, using their hands and feet to climb up quickly.

Shangguan Ziqi was agile and quick in his movements, like a nimble monkey, climbing quickly up the bamboo tower.

Although Edward and William also tried their best to climb, they were obviously not very familiar with this kind of competitive game in Wei Dynasty, and their movements seemed a bit clumsy.

But seeing that everyone was climbing so fast, they also put all their efforts into climbing up, using their hands and feet.

They looked very different from the people of Wei, so most of the audience focused their attention on Edward and William.

They slipped a few steps from time to time, causing the audience to laugh.

Despite this, they still persevered and tried hard to catch up with those ahead.

As the altitude increases, the difficulty of climbing becomes greater.

Because the higher you go, the smaller the space becomes, and in order to compete, contestants have to attack each other.

Those who dare to sign up all think they have extraordinary martial arts skills.

Some are sons of noble families, some are people from the underworld, some are escorts all year round, and some are generals in the army.

During the New Year holiday, everyone goes out to have fun.

A large number of people came for the eight hundred taels.

If they win, the money will be enough for an average family to live comfortably for several years.

When there was still one-third of the distance left, the contestants on the tower began to fight.

If you kick me, I will push you back which is a very gentle gesture.

Go up further and start a show of force, or knock your opponent down.

Fortunately, there was a thick layer of straw on the ground, so no one would fall.

Edward and William were both stunned when they saw the battle situation above.

He stopped in a daze for a moment.

"My God. The people of Wei are so brave!"

"They can fight so fiercely without swords!"

The two hesitated, wondering whether to continue moving forward.

"Captain Edward?" William raised his head and gestured to continue.

Edward looked at the straw below and realized that he wouldn't die from the fall.

continue!

William saw him continue and continued as well.

But William had just climbed less than ten feet when he was hit by someone falling from above. His hands loosened and he fell down together.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and grabbed the bamboo pole. He only fell ten feet.

This experience taught him to watch out for people falling while climbing and to avoid them.

The two continued one after the other.

The battle above is becoming more and more intense.

Shangguan Ziqi met a martial arts master, and the two of them pushed and kicked each other, neither of them giving in.

"Prince Rong, I'm sorry." The man grabbed a bamboo pole, kicked it out, and then swung his tail like a dragon, kicking Shangguan Ziqi with both legs at the same time.

Shangguan Ziqi instantly understood his motives, kicked his legs, and climbed up two feet, just in time to avoid the man's side kick.

Then, taking advantage of the moment when he kicked her below, she dropped her body again, directly kicking the man's legs downward at 90 degrees. She lost her grip and slid down.

This scene happened to be seen by Edward.

It made his eyes sparkle with stars.

"Shangguan is awesome."

While the man was not adjusting, Shangguan Ziqi had already moved up quickly.

After being blocked like this, there were already three people in front of him who were taller than him.

The three of them also tried to trip each other up.

Seeing an opportunity, Shangguan Ziqi grabbed a person's foot from below and swung it. The person lost his grip and fell down.

And the two men were still fighting each other.

Shangguan Ziqi overtook him from the side.

Just as he was about to go up again, the two men saw his motive and joined forces to deal with him.

"Oh, General, that's not very kind of you. Are you still short of that little money?"

It turned out that both of them were grassroots generals in the army.

"My wife likes this lantern, so I will use the prize money to treat you to a drink." Shangguan Ziqi was very generous.

Without waiting for the two to answer, he climbed up two more steps.

The two were delighted when they heard this, but they couldn't let him go. They both knew the general's abilities. It would be difficult for them to snatch the lantern.

The two of them worked together to do bad things to Shangguan Ziqi.

However, the two did not try their best, and Shangguan Ziqi dealt with them while moving forward.

Finally, Shangguan Ziqi was the first to approach the top of the tower.

He took a deep breath, jumped up, and reached out to grab the exquisite lantern.

The audience burst into applause and cheers to applaud his victory.

Shangguan Ziqi stood steadily on the top of the tower, holding the lantern high in his hand, a victorious smile on his face, looking at Yu Yuanzheng and the three children below.

"Oh oh oh, Daddy is the best." Sanbao clapped his little hands vigorously.

By the time Edward and William had climbed halfway to the lighthouse, the light had already been taken down.

Later on, they stopped climbing and focused on watching the official chess performance.

It made them feel excited.

The two men came down the tower panting, looking up at Shangguan Ziqi, their eyes full of admiration and wonder.

It was the first time for them to witness the martial arts competitions of the Wei men, and they also deeply appreciated the profoundness of the Wei martial arts culture.

Yu Yuanzheng stepped forward and said to Edward and William with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work. Although we didn't win, participating is the most important thing."

Edward and William nodded repeatedly, indicating that they had benefited a lot.

"Your Highness, the martial arts of the Great Wei are so fascinating. Can I learn them?" Edward asked passionately.

"Mr. Edward, I'm afraid it's difficult. If you want to master our Great Wei martial arts, you have to start learning from the age of five, persist for a long time, and not slack off at all." Yu Yuanzheng spoke the truth and did not mean to discourage him.

"Oh, I see." Edward shrugged helplessly. He was already over forty years old and no longer qualified.

Shangguan Ziqi came down from the top of the tower and handed the lantern to Yu Yuanzheng with a smile on his face.

Yu Yuanzheng took it and looked at the lantern carefully. It was slightly larger than ordinary lanterns, and the paintings on the lantern were really beautiful.

Chang'e seems to be dancing in the moon, walking in the clouds, or overlooking the world with a happy expression.

"Husband, you are so awesome. I will treasure this lamp." Yu Yuanzheng smiled sweetly and raised the lamp.

Shangguan Ziqi looked at her gently and smiled, "As long as my madam likes it, I will get more lanterns for you when I have the chance."

"it is good."

The affection between the two can be felt by everyone around them.

"Dad, I'm going to find someone to help me get the lantern in the future." Sanbao interrupted abruptly.

Ok?

What does this mean?
