Chapter 242: Horse Archery Contest (19)

It turned out that this royal boy was Song Gaozong Zhao Gou, Li Yanqing looked at him carefully, and saw that he was about ten years old, but he was very thin, and he could see that his body was relatively weak, which was too far from King Jia's heroic martial arts, but his eyes were extremely bright, and his thinness on the outside could not hide his inner intelligence. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Zhao Gou plucked up his courage and said, "I don't think Li Shaojun should use a copper bow today?" ”

"Your Highness also knows that I use a bronze bow?" Li Yanqing asked with a smile.

"I listened to what the guards said, they said that yesterday Li Shaojun used a copper bow with a long range, but yesterday he only shot three arrows, and there is no problem with using a copper bow, but today it is thirty paper harriers, and it is not wise to use a copper bow, I suggest that Li Shaojun change to the bow and arrow in the past!"

Li Yanqing secretly admired this young man's thoughtfulness, he could see the key points when looking at the problem, of course he couldn't use the copper bow today, and he could open the bow at most ten times now.

"Thank you Your Highness for your concern, the bronze bow and iron arrows require extraordinary arm strength to use, and I am far from the point of opening the bow arbitrarily, and today I have also decided to use the previous bow."

Zhao Gou's face flushed, nodded and said, "Then I'll rest assured." ”

"Let's go!"

Zhao Fujin next to him urged: "People are about to shoot arrows, so let's not bother." ”

Zhao Gou hugged his fists and said: "I wish Li Shaojun to win the first place again." ”

"Thank you Your Highness for your concern, thank you Emperor Ji for your concern."

Zhao Fujin pursed his lips, "I don't care about you!" Flatter yourself. ”

She took Zhao Gou and left under the protection of a group of guards.

Li Yanqing couldn't take care of her, and hurriedly turned around and returned to the greenhouse, but Yang Zaixing was gone, Li Yanqing immediately asked the examiner urgently: "What about others?" ”

"Yang Shaojun has already played, and the military doctor gave him a little poppy just now, and he is much better."

The poppy poppy is a crow pian, which has been commonly used as a drug in the Song Dynasty, of course, there is no problem with taking a small amount, and there is no saying that there is a ban in the Song Dynasty competition, but Li Yanqing is still a little worried, he walked quickly to the eaves of the greenhouse, and watched Yang Zaixing's game.

At this time, Yang Zaixing had already turned his horse's head and ran back, he was obviously not in a state, the fifteen paper harriers in the first round only shot ten, and most of them were arrows in the abdomen, so he could only get ten points, depending on his state, at most more than two hundred points, you must know that the full score is six hundred and ten points.

At this time, Yang Zaixing was almost unable to support it, a paper harrier flew in front of him, he only relied on instinct to shoot arrows, and there were constantly boos around him, and ten paper harriers had flown up on the return trip, and he actually only shot three, at this time there were only more than thirty steps from the end point, and four paper harriers flew up in the sky at the same time, and he did not shoot four in a row.

Suddenly, two paper harriers collided in the air, and one paper harrier turned around and flew towards the grandstand, flying relatively low, Yang Zaixing was unconscious for a while, and instinctively chased an arrow towards the paper harrier, and there was an uproar all around, and the guards and officials were shocked, this arrow turned out to be shot at the stands of the Son of Heaven.

Yang Zaixing is only more than forty steps away from the Son of Heaven stand, this arrow can definitely shoot the stands, of course, it will not be so accurate, just hit the Son of Heaven, but this kind of action of shooting arrows in the direction of the Son of Heaven is already very serious in nature.

At this moment, an arrow 'whoosh!' The ground flew into the sky, Yang Zaixing's arrow was in the middle, the two arrows collided in the air, and they landed together, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, only to see Li Yanqing holding a bow in his hand, he shot this arrow at a critical moment, so that Yang Zaixing would not break into a catastrophe.

At this time, Yang Zaixing couldn't support it anymore, his eyes were dark, he fell off the horse, and there was an exclamation all around, and several soldiers hurriedly ran up and carried Yang Zaixing back to the greenhouse.

In the stands, Cai Jing glared at Tong Guan angrily and said: "What's going on, he actually shot an arrow at the Son of Heaven, what does he want to do?" Captain Tong, how do you explain it? ”

Cai Jing and Tong Guan sat next to the Son of Heaven on the left and right, Cai Jing seized this opportunity and challenged Tong Guan, no matter who the archery was? What is the original intention? But archery to the stands of the Son of Heaven, as the supreme organizer of this game, Tong Guan is to blame.

Tong Guan knew that the consequences of this incident were serious, and he was also quite nervous in his heart, and hurriedly explained to Zhao Ji: "Your Majesty, this samurai played very well yesterday and won the eighth place, and today he is obviously in the wrong state. ”

"Can you shoot arrows at the Son of Heaven when you are sick? Captain Tong, you may be understating! ”

Zhao Ji waved his hand to Cai Jing and asked Guan Tong: "Seeing that he is not old, is he the student?" ”

"He's not!"

Tong Guan hurriedly said: "His name is Yang Zaixing, he is the descendant of my famous Song Dynasty general Yang Ye, and he is only fifteen years old this year. ”

Zhao Ji showed a smile on his face, "It turned out to be the descendant of the Yang family general, it should have been shot by mistake, and I quickly arranged for the imperial doctor to see him." ”

Tong Guan's heart fell to the ground, and he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty is Shengming Renjun, and Weichen thanks Your Majesty for your magnanimity on behalf of Yang Zaixing." ”

Zhao Ji smiled again: "The intercepted arrow was shot wonderfully, I don't know who made it?" ”

"Your Majesty, it is Li Yanqing's hand."

Zhao Ji already remembered who Li Yanqing was, he was a friend of King Jia, he shot a tiger to save Emperor Ji while hunting, and he seemed to have written a few words to the Baoyan Zhai rouge shop opened by his father.

The interest in Zhao Ji's eyes became even stronger, and he was looking forward to seeing Li Yanqing's archery with his own eyes.

At this time, Cai Jing saw that the opportunity to attack Tong Guan was so easily resolved, and he was really annoyed in his heart, so he snorted coldly, and was about to ridicule Tong Guan a few more words, but he caught a glimpse of the Son of Heaven's face being a little unhappy, so he held back the words.

At this time, an official stepped forward and whispered a few words to Tong Guan, and Tong Guan said to Zhao Ji: "Your Majesty, the envoy of Western Xia wants to apologize to Your Majesty in person for yesterday's incident!" ”

Cai Jing's face changed slightly, last night his grandson was actually injured by a group of Western Xia warriors, and Xiang Cong was also seriously injured, so angry that Cai Jing was furious, of course he didn't think that there was Li Yanqing's black hand here, but he thought that Li Yanqing was too lucky, and there were actually Western Xia people who stood up for him at a critical time.

Zhao Ji pondered for a moment and said, "Bring him to see me!" ”

Not long after, Jiao Yanjian, the envoy of the Western Xia, was brought up by several guards, and he knelt down to pay a big salute, "Jiao Yanjian, the envoy of the Western Xia, has come to apologize to His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty!" ”

According to the provisions of the Qingli Peace Conference, Yuan Hao canceled the title of emperor and accepted the canonization of the Song Dynasty, nominally the relationship between the Western Xia and the Song Dynasty was that of a monarch and a minister, so although Jiao Yanjian was an envoy of the Western Xia, he also had to pay tribute to the emperor of the Song Dynasty.

Jiao Aiqing got up and spoke.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Jiao Yanjian stood up and said: "Wechen was not strict in restraining his subordinates, which caused them to make trouble after drinking and injured the sons of many ministers, and Wechen was very sorry. ”

"Both sides are responsible for this matter, and I heard that one of you also died, so I don't want to pursue it any further, so let's stop here! After the game, they can also return home. ”

"Thank you Your Majesty for being lenient, they have already packed up again and left Bianjing early tomorrow morning, but this competition is quite regrettable."

"What's the regret?"

"Back to Your Majesty, the lord of my family specially selected the best archery skills to come to Bianjing for advice this time, hoping to get the guidance of the first archer of the Great Song Dynasty, but unfortunately there is no such opportunity, of course I am deeply sorry."

Tong Guan's face changed suddenly, it turned out that this Jiao Yanjian's apology was an excuse, he actually came to challenge the book, it seems that they were defeated by Li Yanqing's arrow yesterday, and they were not convinced at all!

Of course, Zhao Ji also understood what he meant, so he said lightly: "You go down first!" Let me think about it. ”

"Wechen retires!"

Jiao Yanjian retreated, and Tong Guan hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, yesterday the first archer of Western Xia had been defeated by Li Yanqing's arrow, and it was completely possible to refuse their rude request. ”

Zhao Ji was expressionless, as if he hadn't heard anything, without saying a word, Tong Guan couldn't understand the mind of the Son of Heaven, and he didn't dare to say any more, so he hurriedly waved his hand below, signaling the game to continue.

'When! ’

A bell rang, and Guan Sheng, who was in sixth place, rushed out........

In the big tent, Yang Zaixing had already woken up, he still remembered the last arrow he shot, and asked Li Yanqing very worriedly, "Did I shoot my last arrow in the stands?" ”

Li Yanqing smiled slightly, "Don't worry!" Your arrow was intercepted by me, and there was no trouble, and the imperial doctor came to see you just now, which shows that the Son of Heaven does not care. ”

Yang Zaixing suddenly breathed a long sigh of relief, and was grateful in his heart, "Thank you Yanqing for helping me solve the crisis at the critical moment, otherwise I would really be in trouble." ”

"It's all my own brothers, you're welcome!"

At this time, an official ran up and said to Li Yanqing: "Guan Sheng has already returned, Li Shaojun hurry up and prepare!" ”

Li Yanqing nodded and smiled at Yang Zaixing: "Then I'm ready to play!" ”

"I wish Brother Xian success and win the first place again!"

Li Yanqing laughed, "That's for sure!" ”

He quickened his pace and walked towards the starting point........
