Amid everyone's exclamations, the two arrows that left the string pierced the sky and hit two birds one after another.
Kill two birds with one stone!
Such superb archery skills are rare even among the royal guards.
I didn’t expect that the young Sixth Princess would have such superb archery skills!
Cheers and admirations kept ringing out.
Even Emperor Jianwen couldn't help but smile: "Okay! Good! Good!"
He said three good words in a row.
Empress Yu also had a look of approval in her eyes: "Anping only learned archery for half a year, but his archery skills are so superb. It shows that he is a born martial arts prodigy!"
Isn't it? In terms of talent, his daughter is the most outstanding! Much better than that girl from the Yin family! Emperor Jianwen laughed proudly.
Mr. Meng Shanchang, who was sitting at the judging table, was completely dumbfounded.
Gu Shanchang showed a pleasant smile.
The honest lady in the lady's banquet suddenly stood up, unable to control her excitement, and shouted loudly: "Good shot!"
The students of Lianchi Academy were all beaming with joy. It didn’t take much to think about it. The name of today’s archery arrow must be the Sixth Princess!
The students in Haitang Academy cheered in unison!
"Thank you sister, the sixth princess really won the first place." Lin Weiwei was so excited that she couldn't control herself, and once again grabbed Xie Mingxi's hand tightly: "That's great!"
Xie Mingxi's eyes shone with joy and joy, and she held Lin Weiwei's hand firmly with her backhand.
yes!
Very good!
…
The expression of the fourth prince changed completely, he suddenly turned around and stared at the sixth princess fiercely.
The Sixth Princess holds a long bow in her left hand and holds her right hand behind her back. The beads of sweat on her forehead are shining in the sun, and her stunningly beautiful face is also shining with dazzling light.
"I accept it! Brother Four Emperors!" The sixth princess raised her lips, with a smile that showed the calmness only a winner can have.
The fourth prince clenched the long bow in his hand tightly, revealing the muscles on the back of his hand. His handsome and condensed face seemed to be covered with a thick layer of ice and snow, and his eyes flashed with an astonishing chill.
He actually lost!
Lost to Sheng Anping, who never took it seriously!
In front of Emperor Jianwen and Empress Yu, in front of a group of academy students, and in front of the family members of officials who came to watch the competition, he lost completely and lost face!
How could he be willing to do so? How could he swallow this suffocation?
Li Mo, who was on the side, saw that the situation was not good, and quickly reminded in a low voice: "The emperor and the empress are here, your highness must not lose your composure!"
The fourth prince pursed his thin lips tightly, threw down the long bow without saying a word, and left the practice ground in front of everyone's attention.
…
According to the rules of the competition, students who participated in the competition could only leave the field together under the leadership of the Master after the scores were counted and the rankings were determined.
The sudden departure of the fourth prince caught everyone by surprise.
The masters in charge of counting discussed it briefly, pretended that it didn't happen, and went on counting silently.
Emperor Jianwen's face darkened.
Empress Yu sighed softly and comforted her in a low voice: "Don't be upset, Your Majesty. The fourth prince has been number one in Sheyu for two consecutive years. This year he unexpectedly lost to Anping. It is inevitable for young people to be arrogant and leave in anger."
Emperor Jianwen snorted heavily.
If you can afford to win, you must also be able to afford to lose! This is the ambition of a man!
The performance of the fourth prince today is really disappointing.
Everyone who was originally surprised and cheering fell silent for a moment due to the sudden departure of the fourth prince. Then they all whispered to each other.
"I didn't expect that His Highness the Fourth Prince would lose to the Sixth Princess."
"His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince always dominated the limelight. Today he failed in the competition and made a fool of himself in front of the Emperor. It is inevitable that he will feel angry and unwilling."
"You can't say that, even if you don't give in, you will lose if you lose. Shouldn't we allow him to take first place and others can't take first place?"
"Her Royal Highness the Sixth Princess's archery skills are really unexpected. In the past, I only heard that Her Royal Highness the Fourth Prince was a martial arts genius. Now I know that the Sixth Princess is even better!"
…
The results of the competition were quickly calculated.
The sixth princess shot down ten birds in the third round, not including the last two, and scored a total of thirty points. This was higher than the twenty-eight points scored by the fourth prince last year.
A well-deserved first!
The Fourth Prince, who left the field angrily, actually performed quite well today and still scored a high score of twenty-seven, ranking second.
The third place is Li Mo, who scored 25 points in today's competition.
As for Fang Ruomeng, he ranked seventh with a total of 22 points. Coincidentally, his ranking was exactly the same as in the Four Books Competition.
General Yin smiled so hard that he almost grinned behind his ears. He was even prouder than the parents of the students who made it into the top three: "Xiaoxiao won fourth place in the competition. Her ranking is already very good."
Everyone: "..."
It's indeed very good. But if you boast about it yourself, what else will others say?
Mr. Fang Ge was sitting with Mr. Yan Ge and Mr. Li Ge today, and he sighed quite humbly: "My granddaughter has mediocre qualifications, but she only excels because of her hard work. She got seventh in the Four Books Competition, and seventh in the archery competition.
Whether your ranking is high or low, you have to continue to study hard and practice hard."
Li Xiangru did very well in this college competition. When Mr. Li Ge heard Mr. Fang Ge's seemingly humble but calm boasting, he laughed it off.
Mr. Yan Ge's face was not that good-looking, and he secretly resented his failure.
All the concubines of the Fang family behaved like this. Yan Zhenzhen only participated in one competition and failed in it, becoming the laughing stock of everyone. This also brought disgrace to his father.
…
Soon, the results of the competition were announced.
Today's archery competition in Lianchi Academy totaled forty-five points.
Songzhu Academy, on the other hand, scored 2nd, 3rd and 8th respectively, with a total of 44 points. Not only did it fail to overtake, the total score gap widened by one point.
Chief Meng Shan's mind was buzzing, and the expression on his face was indescribable.
Chief Gu Shan turned his head and smiled leisurely at Chief Meng: "I accepted the offer again today."
The word "again" made Meng Shanchang's mouth twitch. It took him a while to squeeze out a few words: "There will be a horse racing competition tomorrow."
Archery is all about skill, but riding a horse consumes the most physical energy. He didn't believe that the girl from Lianchi Academy who participated in the horse riding competition could defeat the four princes and five princes Sheng Xuan.
Gu Shanchang smiled gracefully: "We'll find out tomorrow."
At this time, Mr. Lian had already led the Sixth Princess, Yin Xiaoxiao and Fang Ruomeng to the middle of the students.
Yin Xiaoxiao and Fang Ruomeng were already covered in hot sweat, but their expressions were dancing with joy.
The Sixth Princess, who was cold and talkative, was even more radiant today. The faint smile at the corner of her mouth was like a flower blooming, so beautiful.
Xie Mingxi smiled and looked at the Sixth Princess for a moment, then opened her mouth and said: "Congratulations to Your Highness, Princess, for winning the first place."
The Sixth Princess raised her eyebrows and smiled, her right hand still clasped behind her back.
Xie Mingxi's heart moved and she stepped forward quickly: "What's wrong with Her Royal Highness's right hand?" (To be continued)
