This girl was gentle and recognized that she was the sister of Qitat's mother. She was only twelve years old. She was also very delicate and arrogant. The queen mother wanted to promote her, so she asked her to accompany her. She laughed. Smiling: "How could the emperor's imperial guard miss the target? Oh, by the way, it seems to be just a third-class guard!"
Cao Yong's expression did not change, he only smiled gently, turned around and said, "Just ask the emperor to send someone to check."
Just as Kangxi was about to tell Li Dequan to go, Yu Ludai smiled sweetly and said, "I'm going, princess!" After saying that, before Kangxi could refute, he hurried to the target to take a look.
Shaoqing, Yu Ludai said with a smile: "You shot through the bullseye! The arrow fell behind the target and was blocked!"
Qitat suddenly showed a look of extreme surprise and said: "Impossible! It's impossible for a three-stone bow to shoot through the bull's-eye eighty steps away! I just drew the bow to full strength, and I have already drawn it to the limit of this bow! Use one more shot. Due to the strength, the bow will inevitably break! Could it be..." As he said this, he walked quickly to Cao Yong. Cao Yong also handed over his bow with a smile and said with a smile: "Please check it with Baile." Qitat is the Prince of Darkhan. The legitimate son will definitely inherit the title of prince in the future, and now Baylor's title was specially given by Kangxi.
Qitat snorted and hurriedly checked the bow and arrow carefully. The wood and bow strings didn't look any different at all. He was not worried so he pulled the bow to the full to test it out. Sure enough, it was the same. He pressed a little harder and the bow string was the same. Tinga snapped, and the wood of the bow broke. The bowstring that flew over due to the break passed by Qitat's cheek, leaving a long and thin scar, and then a bloodshot trace seemed to be painted on his face. face.
Qitat didn't seem to notice the pain on his face. He still had an expression of disbelief. He glanced at the target in the distance again, then cast his doubtful eyes on the silvery-red jade in the distance, and then strode forward. Ran over.
However, Yu Ludai had already Shiran and walked back, returned to the seat next to Wen Xi, and said with a smile: "He thought his daughter was fooling him! He didn't even think about it, how could his daughter cheat in full view of everyone?!"
Wen Xi also nodded and said to Kangxi: "Guard Cao's cavalry and shooting are indeed first-class!"
Kangxi smiled gently and said to Prince Darkhan, who looked extremely embarrassed: "I think Qitat is not used to using light bows and arrows, so the strength is not good! Since it is relatively accurate, this first arrow , naturally it can only be regarded as a tie."
Although Prince Darkhan was embarrassed, he still said: "If you lose, you lose. Guard Cao won the first arrow!" Mongolians have always been proud and will never admit defeat.
While he was talking, Qitat had already returned. His face turned pale, and he was extremely embarrassed. He looked at Cao Yong again, and he already regarded him as a powerful enemy. He no longer looked down upon him, and said solemnly: "You are very powerful!"
However, Cao Yong didn't look proud at all. He just smiled and said: "Cao is just a third-class bodyguard in front of the emperor! Of course, there are many people who can ride and shoot above Cao!" In this way, he was praising Kangxi and even more so. This gave the other guards some dignity. Then he glanced at the pretty Mongolian girl beside the Queen Mother and showed a different smile. Just now it was she who said with great disdain that Cao Yong was "just a third-class guard."
Chitate's sister Qiqige, the legitimate daughter of Prince Darkhan, has been held in the palm of her parents and brothers since she was a child. She is extremely proud and looks down on those men who are not as brave as her brothers. Cao Yong's smile was originally a look of suspicion. . In the eyes of this young girl with her first love, she couldn't help but blush to the very bottom of her ears. Mongolian men are so brave. There are very few handsome young men like Cao Yong. Even if there are, they are weak and weak cowards. Don't think that women are not lewd. See, Even beautiful men can become infatuated, let alone such a handsome and heroic man.
Behind Cao Yong's hands, he was actually squeezing his own hands. Although the arrow he just shot was not very laborious, it was very consuming. His six senses are much higher than ordinary people, and his perception is also extraordinary. Tate is better able to grasp the limits of the bow and arrow. Of course, what is more important is the driving force exerted on the arrow by internal energy. If it is a little crooked, the arrow will miss the target. Even if it penetrates the target, there will be no chance. What's the use?
Wen Xi also knew the inside story. The jade pendant she gave to Cao Yong was not an ordinary jade pendant, but a jade pendant that had been placed on Lingquan Mountain in Space for a long time and had turned into a psychic gem. If worn close to the body, it would Gradually improving one's physical condition at a slow and imperceptible rate makes one's six senses more sensitive and the inner energy more abundant, which is of extraordinary help to those who practice martial arts. Naturally, what is more important is that the owner of the jade pendant is willing to work hard.
After a while, new bows and arrows were delivered by the guards. Cao Yong smiled at Qitat and said, "Does Master Beile still need to check it again?"
Qitat's face turned red and said: "You are a warrior! I believe you will not play tricks!" The Mongols are a place where the strong are respected, and only the strong will be respected! They also believe in the power of the strong Pride and dignity will prevent you from playing dirty tricks.
Cao Yong nodded and took the bow and arrow, saying: "Since we agreed at the beginning that we would have to test the accuracy of the arrow, please restrain your strength, Lord Beile, so as not to hurt yourself." More importantly, Cao Yong was not sure that he could shoot another arrow with such force. Yes.
"Okay!" Qitat solemnly responded, "Today I'm just trying to be more accurate. I'll ask you for advice tomorrow on who has greater strength!"
Both of them had ten arrows in their quivers, and now they each had nine left. Qitat drew the bow again, but it was not as round as the full moon last time. He just pulled it open as usual, then let go, and the arrows It also falls right in the center of the bullseye.
Both of them fired arrows very quickly, and only a whizzing sound was heard. After a while, there was only one arrow left in the pot, and among the twenty targets eighty steps away, Qitat's first target shot half of the arrow. Cao Yong shot the arrow through the first target, leaving only the last target.
Qitat stopped. Although he was sure of hitting the bullseye with the last arrow, the opponent was even more certain, and he had already lost the first arrow. If they all hit, he would still lose. After thinking for a moment, strangely Tate said: "You and I are the last arrows, how about shooting at a target?" There was a hint of provocation in his tone.
Cao Yong smiled faintly: "Okay." He put the arrow on the bowstring. Seeing that he had taken aim, Qitat hurriedly opened the bow at a very fast speed.
Since they are shooting at the same target, the purpose is obvious, which is to use arrows to disturb each other! Since it is a disturbance, the person who shoots first must suffer, and the person who shoots later can hit with his own arrows. Hit the opponent's arrow and make it miss. Qitat just wants to have a fierce contest with Cao Yong!
Compared with Qitat's solemnity, Cao Yong's spring breeze-like smile formed a sharp contrast.
The two of them were locked in a stalemate, only firing the bow, exerting all their strength, but not releasing the arrow. This was really a battle of endurance. Although Sanshi's bow was not very strenuous, it was extremely draining to maintain it like this. , and if the muscles are tired, it will be difficult to maintain the accuracy! Sweat slipped from the foreheads of the two people. Several young concubines who didn't understand were muttering and complaining about why they didn't ejaculate.
Yu Ludai frowned deeply and said in a low voice: "Even if Qitat spent countless efforts before, Cao Yong's strength is still not as good as him. If this continues, Cao Yong will not be able to hold on!"
Wen Xi also frowned. Yes, it was destined that Cao Yong could only shoot the last arrow first. His strength and endurance were not as good as Taqi's.
Suddenly, Cao Yong suddenly retreated quickly, which surprised Qitat. By the time he reacted, Cao Yong had already stepped back twenty steps, so he was a hundred steps away from the target. Since he wanted to pierce the target with a hundred steps Is that?! Qitat was so competitive that he refused to stay at the eighty-step position, so he hurriedly retreated, his hawk-like eyes staring closely at Cao Yong, guarding against him taking advantage of this moment to launch an arrow.
Cao Yong, however, had no intention of taking advantage of him. Instead, he let go and waited for him to retreat before he drew his bow again and said with a smile: "Master Beile, Cao Yong is about to release an arrow."
Qitat was shocked and started fighting for a bull's-eye, and the bull's-eye was so small that it couldn't hold two arrows. The winner would inevitably be determined, and the key to victory or defeat was timing. How to tell others when to release arrows? ?Give others a chance to deal with themselves?! In Qitat's shocked eyes, Cao Yong's arrow suddenly shot into the sky.
Chitat was stunned and froze for a while, then hurriedly released the package. However, it was only a hundred steps away, and it was difficult for human eyes to see clearly the bullseye on a target so far away.
And Cao Yin's arrow flew in a parabola in the sky, and finally started to fall after flying for about fifty steps, and finally stabbed firmly diagonally on the bull's-eye. Qitat's arrow landed a little to the right of the bull's-eye. The position of the little bit was off target.
Qiqige shouted in surprise: "How did he hit it?!" Then she chirped like a little sparrow next to the Queen Mother, "Queen Mother, look, he actually hit it! Oh my God, that arrow is in the sky. I made an arc and landed on the bull's-eye! It's amazing!"
Indeed, Cao Yong's arrows stunned many people. After all, it was Qiqige's girl's nature that she couldn't hold back her words. She chirped a lot, and everyone around her started praising her with every word. Come.
Qitat stared blankly at the target a hundred steps away, as if he was absent-minded. Only when he realized that everyone was praising Cao Yong did he realize that he had lost. He was convinced that he had lost. Then he lowered his head and said, "You won." !”
Cao Yong was neither arrogant nor impetuous, so he said: "I accept the concession." Then he returned to the imperial driver, knelt down and said: "I am lucky that I have lived up to my command!"
"Okay!!" The satisfaction in Kangxi's eyes could not be concealed, and he could not help but raise his palms and cheer, saying: "Password: Cao Yongjin's second-class bodyguards, the Cao family is carried into the Manchu army with yellow flags!"
Cao Yong couldn't hide his surprise and kowtowed hurriedly. Just now Kangxi only said that he would carry the Manchu Army flag, but now that he has behaved well, he has become the "Manchu Army Xianghuang Banner"! The Xianghuang Banner is the Shangsan Banner, and it is also the Tongjia clan. How could Cao Yong not be happy about the yellow flag he was in?
While she was beaming with joy, Qiqi Ge coquettishly said to the Queen Mother: "Queen Mother, I want him to be my husband!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation, monthly vote, you Your support is my greatest motivation.)
