657. 660 Helpless appearance

Cen Xiqin thinks it's a tragedy! Have a good banquet and watch the excitement, why did you somehow become a person who was watched by the excitement?

Riding is easy to say, but she is also the daughter of the Wuxun family, although I dare not say that I grew up on horseback since I was a child, but I have also practiced seriously for a few years, compared to most of the nobles in the capital, her riding skills are quite good.

But about the rumor of "proficient archery", others don't know what's going on, and she knows the truth best in her own heart!

At this time, Mo Jinye, who was sitting on the emperor's throne, also looked in the direction of the women's seat and spoke, "Oh? Cen Aiqing's seven daughters are available? ”

Cen Xiqin's head dripped a drop of sweat, got up from his position hard, and bowed to Mo Jinye, "Courtier Cen Xiqin, knock to see the emperor!"

Mo Jinye looked at Cen Xiqin, who was kneeling on the ground, he had also heard a little about the seventh girl of the Cen family, but he definitely couldn't say that he knew much, after all, he was the emperor, and he had to be busy with many national affairs every day, so naturally he didn't have so much spare time, staring at the young masters and nobles in the capital.

"Get up and talk." Mo Jinye looked majestic and spoke lightly.

"Your Majesty." Cen Xiqin made a bitter little face and got up from the ground.

"I heard that you are superb in riding, good at archery, and do not lose to men, today, on behalf of my noble daughter in the east, and the woman of the crossbow country, let's have a friendship contest." Mo Jinye stared at Cen Xiqin and said in a tone that could not be refused.

Mo Jinye understands that in the capital, it is difficult to find a noble girl who can compare with the women of the Crossbow Kingdom in terms of riding and archery, after all, the nobles of Dongyu are mostly raised in the inner house, and they are not like the Crossbow people, both men and women grew up on horseback, but now, it is about Dongxun's face and bearing, and he can no longer refuse Ashinakus's proposal.

Since Mo Junfei said that the seven girls of the family are proficient in archery and horsemanship, then let her go up and give it a try, the Cen family is a family of military generals, if the girls of their family are not good, then the girls of the other families present are probably even worse.

From hearing Mo Junfei mention Cen Xiqin to Mo Jinye's call out Cen Xiqin, many people had different expressions.

Some ministers were half relieved, their thoughts were similar to Mo Jinye, it was not easy to find a woman to compete in the competition, and the other half didn't breathe, because they were worried about winning or losing the competition.

Those noble ladies who don't know the truth, some are envious, some are jealous, this Cen Xiqin is going to be in the limelight again! But it's useless to be envious and jealous, who makes them all weak women compared to her tomboy!

There are only a few people who really sweat in their hearts!

Cen Xiyan and Jin Fang were the ones who knew Cen Xiqin's level best, and the two of them glanced at each other, and they both saw worried looks in each other's eyes.

There are also Cen Hongyi, Cen Hongmian, Mo Junxuan and others, either who care about their sister, or because they have seen Cen Xiqin and Cen Xiyan cooperate in archery before, and they have long doubted Cen Xiqin's archery level, and their hearts can't help but mention it, but at this time, they can't open their mouths to say anything against it.

When Cen Xiqin heard the emperor's words, she was really about to cry, with her rotten archery skills, how could she compare to those crossbow women! When the time comes, it is a trivial matter for her to lose herself, but it is the face of the Dongxun country that she loses! What is she going to do!!

"Your Majesty, the courtiers' riding skills and archery skills are actually very ordinary, and they dare not claim to be proficient, they are really ...... It's hard to take on this important task......"

When Mo Jinye heard Cen Xiqin's prevarication, his brows immediately furrowed, and the expression on his face was very ugly!

Cen Xiqin dared to say such a refusal in front of so many civil and military officials, crossbow envoys, family members of various prefectures and others, this is a slap in the face!

Without waiting for Mo Jinye to say anything more, Mo Junfei forced again: "Hey! Cen Xiaoqi, now is not the time to be modest! How is your riding skills, who doesn't know the people who often play together in the capital? As for archery, we have also seen it, the person who can shoot the leopard in the hunting ground to save Jin Fang, we all believe in your strength, we are the state of etiquette in the east, when we are sparring, we must show our true skills, only to show our sincerity, but also let the crossbow Khan and the envoys to see the demeanor of my lady in the east! ”

Because of Cen Xiqin's refusal just now, he also raised a heart, pinched a handful of sweat, and wiped a handful of sweat at this moment, hurriedly went out of the ranks, and first saluted Mo Jinye as a monarch and minister, and said: "The little girl is young and doesn't know how to measure, please don't blame the emperor." As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Cen Xiqin again, and said sternly: "Don't thank the emperor and the Nine Emperor Princes for their trust, and for a while, I will do my best to compete with the noble girl of the crossbow, and I can't lose the face of Dongxun and the Cen family!" ”

"Yes, the courtiers obey the order...... Cen Xiqin stiffened his head and knelt down again to receive the will.

Mo Jinye's complexion finally softened a little, and he didn't say any more words of reproach.

After Cen Xiqin received the will, he was in a panic, and subconsciously looked in the direction of Cen Xiyan.

Receiving Cen Xiqin's eyes for help, Cen Xiyan couldn't bear it, and his brain spun rapidly, thinking of ways to help Cen Xiqin break the siege.

Ashinakus has been paying attention to Cen Xiyan's side, Cen Xiqin and Cen Xiyan's eye contact, of course he has seen it.

At this time, he suddenly spoke: "Only one person from each side will compete in riding and shooting, it will be a little more deserted, it is better to have more people together, it will be more lively and interesting, I don't know what Your Majesty thinks?" ”

When Mo Jinye heard this, he couldn't help frowning, and asked in a deep voice: "It's not that Khan thinks that how many people are fighting together is considered lively?" ”

Ashnakus looked at Yao Luo Ge Xuan, Yao Luo Ge Xuan understood, and with a blow of both hands, five crossbow girls came up and saluted Ashnakus and Mo Jinye. These five crossbow girls are just a few of the twelve crossbow dancers who have just danced, they are enthusiastic and unrestrained when they dance, and they are still standing quietly at the moment, and they are also upright and fit, which is in stark contrast to the gentle Dongyu noblewoman.

"Khan, Your Majesty, let these five girls, on behalf of the noble girl of the crossbow, have a discussion with the noble girl of the Eastern Month." Yao Luo Getun raised his chin and said proudly.

The five crossbow girls also raised their chins, with amazing momentum and self-confidence.

Ashnacus nodded, turned to Mo Jinye, and said: "The nobles of the two countries are competing in riding and archery, one is to enhance the friendship between the two countries, and the other is to help the fun of this grand event, which is very good, and the others don't have to be taken to heart, but Kusi is still looking forward to seeing the demeanor of the noble girls in the east on the school field!" ”

When he said this, Ashinakus's eagle eyes stared at Cen Xiyan without a trace.

Cen Xiyan came into contact with Ashinakus's gaze, and his eyebrows couldn't help frowning, what does this man want to do? ?

Mo Xianyun is such a keen person, there is a man looking at his woman, how could he not find it, his pool-like eyes couldn't help narrowing, and he made a note of Ashinakus in his heart!

At this moment, Mo Jinye's heart is very dissatisfied, these crossbow people really don't know what to do, and they have to make inches! Among the noble ladies of the Eastern Decade here, it is not easy to find a woman who is proficient in technology and archery, how can I find five such women and compete with these crossbow nobles!

But when it comes to the face of the Eastern Decadence Kingdom, he can't help but accept Ashinakus's moves.

"Although my Dongyu women are mainly cooking in the inner house, husbands and children, and usually use piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs to cultivate their sentiments, but they are not all weak women, strong physique, and tenacious temperament are not a few, since the Khan proposed such a way to help the fun, naturally can not be disappointed, although it is a competition and win or lose, but the winning side, I will be rewarded!" Speaking of this, Mo Jinye paused slightly, his eyes looked around the seat of the female guest, and said loudly: "The noble ladies here, can they volunteer to come on the field and compete with these crossbow girls?" ”

Mo Jinye's voice fell, and the hall was suddenly silent!

Especially those delicate ladies of the Eastern Decade, most of them lost their faces, lowered their heads, and did not dare to look at the emperor on the dragon chair, trying to reduce their sense of existence.

Go and try riding and shooting with those crossbow women?? Are you kidding!!! At home, which of them is not clothed and pampered, how can they ride on horseback every day, hold bows and arrows, and fight and kill! Even if the atmosphere of this dynasty is open, there are many women who can ride horses, but it is only a symbolic play, just a showcase, and it is no problem to walk on a flat land on a horse for a while, but if you want to run on a horse, I am afraid that most of them will not succeed.

Not to mention, I'm going to try some archery skills on the horse! Most of them would faint at the sight of a mouse, and what kind of bow and arrow would they use! It is also the martial arts families like the Cen family and the Jin family that there are outliers like Cen Xiqin and Jin Fang, who are usually crazy, playing riding and hunting, and they don't have the reserve and demure that girls should have.

Mo Jinye couldn't help but feel depressed when he saw the nobles at the women's table bowing their heads like ostriches, and wanted to sigh.

"No one volunteered? Do you want me to make the roll call unsuccessful?! Mo Jinye's tone was already a little impatient.

The queen mother and the emperor also sank their faces, and while complaining in their hearts that the people of the crossbow country were looking for trouble, they also blamed these noble ladies of various families who usually loved to be in the limelight, so uncompetitive at the moment.

Cen Xiyan sighed helplessly, stood up, and bowed to Mo Jinye, "Courtiers Cen Xiyan is willing to share the emperor's worries and compete with the crossbow nobles!" ”

Cen Xiyan came out, and suddenly, everyone's eyes in the hall were focused on her!

Mo Jinye was very impressed with Cen Xiyan, because of the four-wheeled carriage she designed, and because this girl was the sweetheart of his difficult son Mo Xianyun!

He didn't expect that the first woman who was willing to voluntarily stand up to compete in the crossbow country would be her! ——
