Chapter 199: Confrontation (1)
Queen Pei's mouth suddenly opened.
Set up a family affair, and delay it for a few years on the grounds that you are reluctant to marry your daughter.
"Taking a step back, even if Princess Shouning insists on marrying Yuan Silan, it's not impossible." Cheng Jinrong said lightly: "As long as Yuan Silan stays in the capital, don't let him return to Tatar." No matter how deep his scheming is, no matter how ruthless his methods are, he is like a lone wolf with sharp teeth and claws. ”
Empress Pei's brows furrowed: "You're right. ”
Empress Pei thought for a while and advised: "I know this matter in my heart. Don't get involved, remember to keep your distance from Yuan Silan. ”
Cheng Jinrong responded with a smile.
She has nothing to do with Yuan Silan for the time being. But in the future, the two will definitely be involved.
Regardless of whether Yuan Silan will still target her, she will never let Yuan Silan go.
It's just that don't tell Queen Pei these words. lest her heart be anxious, and she may not be at peace day or night.
……
Princess Shouning returned to the palace in a dazed mood.
At noon, Princess Shouning did not eat in the dormitory, but went to the Chonghua Palace of the second prince.
As expected, Yuan Silan was also there.
During this period of time, Yuan Silan pretended to be stupid everywhere, making the second prince lose his guard little by little. deliberately made friends again, and the friendship between the two cousins of the second prince and Yuan Silan became warmer and warmer.
Yuan Silan was in Chonghua Palace almost every day at noon, having lunch with the second prince.
It was not the first time that Princess Shouning came, and smiled at the second prince: "Second brother, I am bored alone, and I will have lunch with you today." ”
The second prince is not a fool, and glanced at Princess Shouning with a smile: "You have been coming to Chonghua Palace a lot recently." ”
Who is it for?
Princess Shouning's pretty face was slightly red, and she stomped her feet coquettishly: "What does the second brother mean by this?" It's because I dislike my sister! ”
The second prince did have a feeling of pity for his sister, not to mention, he was also happy to see Princess Shouning and Yuan Silan close, and immediately smiled: "How can this be." Come whenever you want. ”
Princess Shouning was satisfied.
The handsome young man standing on the side, with a smile in his eyebrows, stared at Princess Shouning.
Princess Shouning raised her eyes to look at him, and her heartbeat suddenly beat faster.
Since they met in the stone room of the rockery that day, she has been like a demon, often searching for him. In order to see him, she often came to Chonghua Palace.
The two never spent time alone in private. The burning and joy between the eyes are better than the day.
"Cousin," Yuan Silan greeted with a smile: "I haven't seen you for two days." ”
Princess Shouning's heart was sweet, and she pursed her lips and chuckled: "Cousin remembers clearly." ”
In front of the second prince, Yuan Silan's words were not abrupt and reckless, and he responded with a smile: "I am in the palace every day, and the only thing I see and am familiar with is your brother and sister. ”
The dignified Tatar prince is like being under house arrest in the palace, which is really pitiful.
Princess Shouning felt pity in her heart, and her voice softened a little: "If my cousin is depressed in the palace, and the second brother goes out of the palace to hunt and play, you and the second brother will go together." ”
"That's what my sister said." The second prince quickly picked up: "In a few days, I will leave the palace." My cousin and I went out of the palace to relax. ”
Yuan Silan was not disappointed, and responded with a smile.
……
After lunch, Princess Shouning did not stay in Chonghua Palace and left quickly.
The second prince and Yuan Silan studied in the upper study in the morning, and went to practice riding and archery in the martial arts arena in the afternoon.
The ones who taught several princes to ride and shoot were all masters of the Imperial Forest Army.
Emperor Xuanhe emphasized martial arts and light literature, and the princes had the brave and warlike blood of the Yuan clan in their bodies. In the upper study, they were in a daze, and as soon as they entered the martial arts arena, they immediately became alive.
Yuan Silan grew up on horseback and could shoot arrows from the day she could walk. The kung fu of riding and archery is superb, and it is by no means comparable to several princes.
Yuan Silan, who pretended to be in the upper study, never hid her clumsiness when she arrived at the martial arts arena.
The time in the palace was enough for him to know Emperor Xuanhe's love for the heroic young man. He Qi Peizhang, the imperial guard who accompanies him every day, won the favor of Emperor Xuanhe by virtue of his wonderful performance in the imperial guard election.
If he wants to marry Princess Shouning, he has to show some real skills.
Yuan Silan stood a hundred steps away, seemingly casually pulling the bow in his hand, and the sharp arrow was off the string, sliding through the air like a meteor, hitting the bull's-eye.
The second prince, the fourth prince, the fifth prince, and the sixth prince said in unison.
Yuan Silan didn't say anything, and continued to draw the bow and shoot arrows, with five arrows in a row, all of which were bullseyes.
"Good!"
A familiar voice suddenly sounded behind him.
Yuan Silan was not surprised at all, with a surprised and excited look on her face, she hurriedly turned around and saluted: "Silan has seen the emperor. ”
Several princes also immediately stepped forward to salute: "The sons have seen their father. ”
The person who came was Emperor Xuanhe.
Emperor Xuanhe was busy with government affairs on weekdays, but every few days, he always had to meet a few princes and take the school exam by the way.
Of course, with Emperor Xuanhe's personality and temper, he went to the study very few times, and most of them came to perform martial arts. Yuan Silan's archery skills are excellent, and Emperor Xuanhe witnessed it with his own eyes, and he couldn't help but have an extra layer of affection for him.
The eldest prince also came to the martial arts arena with Emperor Xuanhe, and greeted the second prince and others, and said with a smile: "Today I will go down with you to shoot arrows, and let my father see if the archery skills of our brothers have improved." ”
The second prince snorted coldly in his heart.
Among the princes, the eldest prince has the best archery skills. Therefore, every time he comes to the martial arts arena, the eldest prince has to show his hand and grab a show.
What an abomination!
The most hateful thing is that he is indeed inferior to the eldest prince in archery. Every time, I can only watch the eldest prince in the limelight with depression and grievance.
Yuan Silan's eyes flashed, and she suddenly stepped forward and smiled: "Your Majesty, every archery competition is a solo competition, which is less interesting." Silan has a proposal, why don't you work in a team of two today, how about two people shoot arrows in terms of how much they shoot? ”
"It's funny." Anyway, it was the archery skills of the sons of the school, and Emperor Xuanhe approved it with interest: "It's okay, just what Yi Silan said." ”
Yuan Silan smiled: "Silan is cheeky, I want to be in a group with my second cousin." ”
The second prince's eyes lit up, and he also arched his hand and said, "Please ask for your father's permission." ”
Emperor Xuanhe swept his eyes and nodded in response.
The eldest prince snorted in his heart, and said with a smile: "That son is in a group with the fourth brother." ”
Go into battle brothers! No matter what, the four princes of the same mother are also closer than other princes.
Emperor Xuanhe also responded with a smile.
Next, there are only the five princes and the six princes left.
Who doesn't know that Xiao Liu's archery skills are the worst, and he is in a group, and he is only at the bottom.
The fifth prince was quite cunning and deliberately pretended to be pitiful: "Father, this is not fair. My sixth brother and I are both young, and we can't compare to a few brothers. ”
made it clear that he didn't want to be in a group with the six princes.
Little teenagers also have self-esteem.
The six princes who were disgusted flashed with a trace of embarrassment in their eyes.
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded on the side of Emperor Xuanhe: "The last general also wants to try his skills, and he is willing to be in a group with His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince." ”
