Chapter 95 Ruthless

After the emperor said this, Ji Ling could only step forward and take the small bow with golden horns.

As soon as she held it, her wrist was pressed down. She didn't expect that this small golden-horned bow looked delicate, but it was quite heavy. No wonder it was so difficult for Mao Concubine to pull the bow just now!

Princess Hehui was still standing where she was. Seeing that another palace concubine wanted to shoot an arrow, she was so happy that she picked up another piece of hibiscus flower sticker from the plate, raised her hands high, and put it on a rice dumpling in the middle of the Zongshan Mountain.

When the queen saw that she was very close to Zongshan, she waved and said with a smile: "He Hui, don't stand there, come to Huang's mother!".

Princess Hehui was very lively. After listening to the queen's words, she responded with a snap and jumped back a few steps.

Ji Ling held the bow with a heavy look on his face, his heart filled with regret, seeing that this ugly man was about to go out of his mind.

If he had known about today's brown banquet, he would actually be called out by Fourth Master and even be pulled out by him on a whim...

She must have practiced hard instead of being lazy when Su Peisheng sent the small bow and the sixteen drawers of rice dumplings to Jingyang Palace a few days ago.

Seeing Ji Ling's troubled expression, Concubine Ning covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and said with a smile: "Sister Ji, what are you waiting for? Let us sisters open our eyes! Seeing how smart Sister Li Ji is on weekdays, she must be able to

One shot!".

When the queen heard this, she just raised her hand to stroke her hair, and said calmly: "My lord, it's just a game during the banquet. Don't be nervous, just enjoy it." As she spoke, the gold-inlaid and jewel-shaped armor on her fingertips touched.

On top of the phoenix hairpin, there was a sound of pearls and jade colliding.

Ji Lingqiang smiled and said: "Yes!".

She secretly took a breath, slowly pulled out an arrow, and imitated the way she had just done, trying to hook up the bow.

Unexpectedly, it is in line with the old saying that it is difficult for others to carry the burden, and it is easy to rest step by step while carrying the burden yourself.

Ji Ling tried five or six times in a row before he finally managed to put the arrow on the bowstring. Then he heard the palace concubine beside him sneer in a low voice.

In fact, before Ji Ling traveled through time, it cannot be said that he had never encountered bows and arrows. Many sports gyms and historical and cultural tourist attractions have archery venues for people to try.

But when she touched those bows and arrows, not only was there an instructor to guide her, but the bows also had bow windows, scales, rulers, and arrow rests and sights.

And now, the small golden-horned bow in my hand is a bald bow!

The bald bow is a type of bow commonly used by ancient people. There is no scale on it. Everything about the scale can only depend on the archer's own feeling and skill.

Ji Ling pursed his lips, slowly stretched his arms, and lifted the bowstring upward little by little.

Then, she adjusted the angle several times from left to right, and the bowstring seemed to be in a state of sadness with her, not listening to the instructions at all, and the movements were awkward no matter how she adjusted them.

Yin stood aside, looking at Ji Ling's completely unorganized movements, frowning and shaking his head with a smile.

Everyone then saw the emperor personally walking behind Ji Guiren, holding Ji Guiren's arm in a protective posture, and said in a deep voice: "Take your time! Don't be in a hurry."

The expressions on many people's faces instantly turned several layers of color.

There were some who were watching the fun, gloating over the misfortune and secretly peeking in the direction of the concubine.

Mao Bi frowned and turned her gaze to Concubine Nian, but she noticed that Concubine Nian was no longer where she was.

Mao Bi raised her eyebrows and looked around the crowd, only to realize that Concubine Nian had quietly bypassed the crowd at some point and moved to the left rear of Ji Ling, where she was standing with Concubine Ning.

In front of Concubine Ning stood Guiren Zhang.

Because Zhang Guiren was blocking her, Concubine Mao did not see Concubine Nian walking over.

Seeing Concubine Nian's cold eyes, staring at Ji Ling with no concealment of disgust, Mao Bi's heart sank.

Vaguely, some thoughts passed through her mind in confusion, but those thoughts were floating here and there like smoke and fog, but they were elusive.

Suddenly, like lightning and thunder, an idea flashed through her mind! Maobin's expression changed and she whispered to Jasmine: "Hurry! Let's hurry up and get to the concubine!".

Jasmine didn't know why, but seeing her master's anxious expression, she supported Mao Bi and wanted to go around to Concubine Nian, but the crowd had already blocked the way.

Then Yin pressed Ji Ling's hand and said loudly: "There are two ways to control the strings: Since you are weaker...".

He paused, thought about it for a moment, and said with a smile: "I will teach you the first method! Put your ring finger on top of your little finger, press your big finger, and use your first finger as a string to stand upright." Yin said and gestured.

His words were very patient and soothing, and there was a trace of tenderness and love that was rarely seen in daily life. Even the eunuch holding the arrow behind him couldn't help but secretly raise his eyes and glance at Ji Guiren's back.

.

Ji Ling imitated Yin's movements, and followed the same pattern, posing in a stylish manner.

Yin nodded, spread out his fingers, pressed the back of her hand, and encouraged: "Try it."

Ji Ling tried his best to aim at the rice dumpling, going back and forth three or four times.

Yinqing shouted: "Stand your feet further apart!".

Ji Ling let go of his hand tremblingly, but before he could react, the arrow had already been released with a "chi" sound, barely grazing the rice dumpling, and hit the rice dumpling next to it.

Although it missed, the impact of the arrow tail knocked the rice dumpling with the appliqués off.

Princess Hehui stood watching from the side. At this time, she stamped her feet, laughed and clapped her hands: "No!".

The little eunuch ran over, picked up the two rice dumplings, and placed them on the tray, looking hesitant as to whether it was a hit or a miss.

He looked up at the emperor, saw the emperor nodded, and ran back with a small step holding the tray high, kneeling in front of Ji Ling and presenting the rice dumplings.

Now that the rice dumplings have landed, the nobles will not eat them, and sending back the rice dumplings they shot is just for luck.

Ji Ling took the two trophy rice dumplings from the plate, felt a little frustrated, and handed them to Qixi. He glanced at Zhang Guiren standing behind him, holding the handkerchief tightly with one hand, as if he had just breathed a sigh of relief.

When Zhang Guiren saw Ji Ling looking at him, he also smiled happily at Ji Ling.

Yin only glanced at the two rice dumplings and said to Ji Ling: "Try again yourself!".

Ji Ling had no choice but to pick up his bow and arrow.

On the other side of the main hall, Princess Hehui had already put the fourth hibiscus flower on it and ran to the side to watch.

Ji Ling raised his bow and saw that the bowstring in his hand was trembling slightly.

With the last experience, she had some ideas in her mind and felt something in her hands. At this time, she closed one eye slightly, opened the bow little by little, and focused on aiming at the target.

Everyone's eyes couldn't help but look at the flower-decorated rice dumpling opposite.

Just when Ji Ling was about to let go, he suddenly felt a force pushing from behind him from nowhere!

She had no time to react and was knocked forward two steps. The arrow in her hand had already missed its aim and whizzed away from the string.

I heard several servants beside the palace shouting in shock: "Princess, be careful!".
