Chapter 746: Feeling uneasy
It was finally the fourth day and also the day of the compet.i.tion between East Qin and West Chu .
There was still an hour from noon, but the east and west stands were both filled with people .
The West Chu ministers had all come . On the opposing East Qin stand, the East Qin envoys and Na Mu Cuo hadn’t shown themselves, but everyone else had already come .
The two sides were facing each other, but they all had different expressions .
The East Qin people looked ashamed while the West Chu ministers were all glowing and full of energy . They were talking in groups of twos and threes, talking about the compet.i.tion that was about to begin .
They had great confidence in the Ding Yuan Princess’ ability to win .
But when noon approached, everyone couldn’t help looking over at the field’s gate . They did not see King Ding Yuan or his princess at all .
The ministers began to feel uneasy and began discussing with each other .
“I heard the Princess Consort was sick at the banquet that day . Could it be she isn’t coming because of her illness?”
“No, no, this minister remembers it clearly . The East Qin Crown Prince gave a thousand year old snow ginseng to King Ding Yuan, so the snow ginseng would cure even the strongest illness . ”
“Maybe it’s because King Ding Yuan doesn’t want his princess to appear and partic.i.p.ate? If it’s like this, King Ding Yuan isn’t even here yet . ”
“King Ding Yuan wouldn’t be retreating, right? If he dared to not appear for this large matter, he would be a great sinner to our West Chu Country!”
The crowd was feeling anxious and feeling more angry . The more they spoke, the more unpleasant it sounded .
Even Empress Dowager Zhou was a bit unsettled . She looked at the sky outside before putting down the teacup in her hand and looking at Mo Chuan .
“Emperor, Shao Yang wouldn’t… . . He wouldn’t… . . ” She paused for a bit before shaking her head and saying, “This widow does not think he would ignore the general good this much . ”
But she couldn’t help revealing an unsettled look .
Mo Chuan’s expression did not change as he softly said, “Mother, you can be a.s.sured . Shao Yang is the previous emperor’s son and a part of the royal family, he knows what he should do . ”
But as the time approached noon, Chu Shao Yang and Chen Ning did not appear . How could Empress Dowager Zhou not feel worried?
Mo Chuan’s eyes looked at the other side’s East Qin stands before looking over his crowd . His heart felt depressed while also feeling a bit unsettled .
The East Qin envoys were all here, but only Na Mu Cuo was missing . What was going on? Na Mu Cuo wouldn’t be playing a trick, right?
“Xiao Si . ”
He called Xiao Si and whispered a few orders into his ear, having him investigate the East Qin envoy’s side .
Although Xiao Si was not an expert, he was still intelligent . He was as slippery as a fish and he was even more skilled than Zhui Feng in investigating .
When Xiao Si left, Mo Chuan felt that his heart couldn’t calm down . He felt like something bad was about to happen .
The last compet.i.tion was also like this . She was safely in the Eldest Princess Palace, but she had been suddenly taken by Chu Shao Yang… . .
His heartbeat suddenly became fast as he thought, something wouldn’t have happened to her again, right?
He immediately calmed himself down . No, no, Zhui Feng was guarding her and doctor Zhang’s palace was safe . Even if Chu Shao Yang broke his head, he wouldn’t think that she would be at doctor Zhang’s place .
But the unsettled feeling in his heart kept becoming stronger .
“Emperor!” Xiao Si rushed back and gave his report .
