Yun Shang lowered her head and laughed, as if she had heard a terrible joke. Everyone looked towards Yun Shang, only to see her slowly raising her hand to take the bow, and gently touching the bow and arrow with her hand.
"The eldest prince of Yelang Kingdom likes to bully the weak. We all know that you are very good at archery. What you are best at is shooting three arrows in unison. However, the eldest prince chose your own archery to compete." Yun Shang never thought that it would be Liu Yin.
Feng spoke first, and while blaming Cang Juekang Ning, he also told Yun Shang some information quietly.
Yun Shang picked up the arrow feathers in the plate, opened the bow with a smile, and put on one. Holding the bow with one hand, she stretched out her hand to brush the arrow feathers in the plate, with a faint smile on her face, "
So this is what the eldest prince is best at? It doesn’t matter, he will be willing to admit defeat only when he loses at what he is best at."
Yun Shang suddenly picked up all the remaining nine arrow feathers in the plate, quickly pulled the long bow to the maximum, and suddenly shot towards the target.
Before anyone in the palace could react, they saw ten arrows on the target neatly inserted in the middle of the target. The eunuch on the side reacted the fastest and hurriedly pulled out all the arrow feathers on the target and counted them.
After counting, he said loudly, "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, Princess Jing, they all hit the mark."
There was an uproar in the palace, but Yun Shang, as the protagonist, smiled, walked to the table and picked up the wine on the table, "First Prince, it's your turn."
After saying this, Yun Shang was about to raise her hand to drink, but was stopped by Prince Jing, "You have had six drinks today, don't drink any more."
Yun Shang wanted to say that she was not drunk, but when she saw Prince Jing's eyes, she didn't say anything. She nodded with a smile and put down the wine glass. Prince Jing turned around and ordered the palace people to prepare tea, while pulling Yun Shang.
He knelt down next to him and said, "Just look here."
Yun Shang wanted to say that this was against the rules, but she thought that what she did today was not in line with the rules, so she simply nodded and said to the palace servants who were about to retreat to prepare tea, "Change the tea for the prince too."
Bar."
Seeing Prince Jing looking over, Yun Shang said softly, "Your injury hasn't healed yet, so it's better to drink less."
Prince Jing chuckled a few times and stretched out his hand to hold Yun Shang's hand. Yun Shang was stunned for a moment, only feeling that his hand was a little cold. He raised his head and looked at Prince Jing, but saw that his eyes were looking at him intentionally or unintentionally.
The man with the ferocious scars on his face to the upper right couldn't help but feel a little heartache, so he held Prince Jing's hand back, trying to pass on the warmth of his palm to him.
When Yun Shang raised his head and looked at Cang Jue Kangning, Cang Jue Kangning had not started yet. Yun Shang looked at Cang Jue Kang Ning's somewhat ugly face, pondered for a moment, and then said softly, "If the eldest prince doesn't want to compete, then don't compete."
, this princess is just joking, the visitors are guests, how can I drive away guests from Ningguo?"
His voice was very soft, but the words he spoke were not that pleasant. He secretly mocked Cangjue Kangning for not even having the courage to compete. He looked so complacent just now, but in the blink of an eye he became timid.
It wasn't someone in the banquet who sneered, Cangjuekang Ning's face turned even paler. He naturally knew that although he had always been proud of his archery skills, there was no one among the royal family of Yelang Kingdom who could match him in archery skills.
His, but he couldn't win against that woman. What he was proud of was shooting three arrows at once, but he didn't expect that woman to be able to shoot ten arrows at once.
He had certainly heard the words spoken during the dinner, either pursuing Princess Jing or ridiculing him. He felt a little chilled in his heart, but the face of Yelang Kingdom could not be lost.
Cangjuekang Ning gritted his teeth and nocked the arrows, but did not use his so-called three-arrow salvo. The ten-arrow salvo just now must have shocked everyone. If he had used three-arrow salvo, he would obviously be at a disadvantage.
It's better to behave yourself and seek stability.
Cang Juekang Ning thought like this, then he drew his bow and arrow and shot out one arrow after another.
It was very stable. Just to earn some face, Cangjuekang Ning secretly used a little more force. The arrows all penetrated the target. After ten arrows, there was only one hole in the target and no one was visible.
An arrow.
Yun Shang blinked, thinking that Cang Jue Kang Ning was not completely brainless, it was just that he calculated the wrong person and chose her. Yun Shang smiled softly and stood up, "Thank you, the eldest prince, for taking such good care of me."
Well, this princess just played a trick, and all ten arrows hit the target. In order to take care of me, the eldest prince was afraid of losing the reputation of a weak woman in the Qi family, so he missed even one arrow. This princess really admires the eldest prince's mind.
."
"What? What nonsense are you talking about? I clearly got them all." Hearing this, Cang Juekang Ning's veins jumped on his forehead, and he turned his head to look at Yun Shang fiercely.
However, Emperor Ning now understood Yun Chang's plan and laughed loudly, "In this archery competition, the arrows are naturally counted only when they are on the target. Just now, Chang'er's ten arrows were all on the target, and the eldest prince's,
But there isn’t even one.”
After saying that, he turned to look at Emperor Xia again, "Brother Xia, do you think what I said is right?"
Emperor Xia's eyes fell on Yun Shang, who was talking to Prince Jing with his head lowered. He paused for a moment and smiled, "Of course it should be like this."
Cangjue Kangning was so angry that he stared at everyone fiercely and walked away, "Okay! You guys are very good!"
As soon as Cangjue Kangning left, the palace became lively again. Emperor Ning smiled and said, "I don't know when Chang'er's archery skills became so good?"
Yun Shang was talking to Prince Jing. Hearing this, he raised his head with a smile and said, "Father, Your Majesty's archery skills are the best. Your minister's little skill just now was also taught by Your Majesty. It's just your body."
Weak, not strong enough, otherwise I would have been able to shoot better than before."
"Oh?" Emperor Ning raised his eyes and looked at Prince Jing, smiled, and then fell silent. However, there was some doubt in his heart. Yun Shang's archery skills would be beyond the reach of ordinary people in just a few years.
Yes, she had been married to Prince Jing for less than a year. Moreover, the two of them had been separated for most of the time.
Seeing that Prince Jing didn't refute, he couldn't ask further questions and just smiled and said, "It's a pity that Prince Jing is injured now. Otherwise, he could have seen Prince Jing's archery skills."
This was the end of the story. Seeing that the palace was very lively because of the competition just now, and everyone was talking about Yun Shang's archery skills, Emperor Ning didn't ask the dancer to come up. Everyone drank for a while, and Emperor Ning smiled.
He said, "I am a little surprised that Brother Xia can come in person this time."
When Emperor Xia heard this, he was stunned. He put down his wine cup, glanced at Prince Jing's face, and said loudly, "I have a private matter to come here this time." After a pause, he looked a little sad.
He said, "Twenty-nine years ago, my wife was pregnant with Liujia but she insisted on going to the battlefield together. Unexpectedly, she fell off the cliff. She originally thought that she and the child were both dead. However, when Duke Hua came some time ago, he discovered a very possible person.
He is the child of his wife’s posthumous son..." (To be continued)
