Chapter 008: Master

Li Xuan'er said that she was going to play, which stunned Li Wen and Zheng Hao.

Yang Huaixin looked at their expressions, and then saw that the princess looked confident, and asked her tentatively: "Then the humble position is for you...... Pick a horse? ”

"No!" Li Wen immediately denied it. But as soon as his sister's dissatisfied gaze swept over, he firmly added:

"Pick three."

As he spoke, Li Wen's chamberlain also took a few bows.

Riding and shooting are all horn bows, and the strength required to draw the bow is also different.

Zheng Hao picked a slightly soft bow, he was worried that the princess's hand was not strong enough, not to mention that she couldn't pull it properly, the bowstring bounced back quickly, and it was easy to hurt herself.

He just wanted to give her the bow he had picked, but Li Xuan'er pointed to the bow in Yang Huaixin's bow bag and said:

"Vice Admiral Yang, can you lend me your bow to try?"

Yang Huaixin secretly admired: The princess is really an expert, the horn bow equipped by Yu Linwei is the best in the army, our bow is pulled every day, it is a familiar bow, and it must be much better to use than a new bow.

Without saying a word, he took off the bow and arrow hanging at his side and handed it to the princess.

Li Xuan'er hung up her bow and quiver, turned over her horse, and walked towards the big field.

Li Wen and Zheng Hao looked at each other, and they didn't have time to think about when Xuan'er learned archery, so they hurriedly got on their horses and chased after them.

"Vice Admiral Yang, which team do I join?" Xuan'er saw that they were wearing black and red scarves on their heads, which was obviously not an individual competition, and those Yu Linwei were also a little surprised to see her enter the team.

When Yang Huaixin saw it, he said to Li Wen: "The eldest prince, the four of us are divided into two teams, red and black, with twelve people in each team, one arrow per person, and the one who shoots the most copper coins in total wins." ”

"Good! I'm on a team with the royal sister ......"

"Brother, if we are on a team, won't they all take the initiative to lose to us? So what's the point of the game? I was on a team with Vice General Yang. ”

When a lieutenant handed over the scarf to Yang Huaixin, he whispered: "Adjutant General, you shouldn't ...... with them."

Yang Huaixin raised his hand to stop him, lowered his eyes and said, "I have a clear conscience, what can he do." ”

So saying, he went over and gave them the scarves. Ready to stop, several people stood on both sides.

Zheng Hao looked at Li Xuan'er, who was radiant opposite, and his heart was full of thoughts. He used to think that although the princess was proud, she was innocent and kind, and she was very good to herself, and it was she who was blinded by lard that pushed the princess away from him.

But now, from the time the two met to the present, in addition to the same beautiful appearance as in his memory, he couldn't find a trace of the past. Seeing her smile at her brother, she is still so delicate and moving, and even to Yang Huaixin, she is much kinder than to herself.

It seems that I can't wait for the Holy God to grant me happiness, I have to fight for it on my own.

Zheng Hao finally tied the turban at the back of his head, retracted his gaze at the princess, and said to Li Wen energetically:

"The eldest prince, remember our trick of practicing live targets, the more we aim, the more inaccurate it becomes, and with experience, predict the fast fight."

The black team was shot by Li Wen with the first arrow, and Zheng Hao was the last. Li Wen originally had the foundation of riding and archery, and in the past two years, Zheng Hao taught him the horse archery skills of the Hu people, although he had never shot such a target, he was not afraid.

The red team also wanted to arrange it like this, but the princess shook her head and said: "Vice General Yang, you are good at archery, shoot the first arrow, and have the effect of demonstrating and inspiring the morale of the army. ”

The Red Sergeant actually thought so, and now that the princess herself said it, they were a little embarrassed.

Yang Huaixin nodded and said: "Okay, everyone in front of us should take their own responsibilities, if we don't make mistakes, the princess will not be burdened." We are the Praetorian Guard, and it is our duty to protect the princess. Now it's the actual battle, we fall, the princess will be hurt, so, remember the main points of our usual training, we can win! ”

The ten sergeants were all excited, and no longer felt that the princess was a drag, and they were ready to go out first.

In the first formation, the eldest prince believed in Yang Huaixin.

The martial arts arena is in the east of the Daming Palace, and further east, is the high palace wall. There was not a single tree in this area, the sun was like fire, and the surroundings were quiet, only the undulating heat waves, flowing in front of everyone.

"Up!"

At the sound of an order, the four horses galloping towards each other had yellow sand under their hooves. Yang Huaixin's eyes stared at the copper coin hanging high, and suddenly his hand released the reins, and the arrow opened the bow in one go, and the sharp arrow left the string and went straight through the square hole in the middle of the copper coin.

Li Xuan'er smiled at the corner of her mouth: Master, it turns out that when you were young, you were so powerful?

Li Wen was a little nervous on the horse, and he couldn't shoot, didn't he make his sister laugh? He caught the horse's belly between his legs, and with his right hand he took the arrow out of the quiver, and in anticipation of a quick fight, he shot not a copper coin, but a thin hemp rope to which the copper coin was attached.

The copper coin is shaken again, and the part of the hemp rope closest to the bamboo pole has the least shaking.

Before the two of them passed by, two copper coins fell in response.

"Brother! You're amazing! ”

In Xuan'er's opinion, her master Yang Huaixin in her previous life was expected, but it was unexpected that her brother's archery skills could make such progress. This greatly aroused her curiosity about her master Zheng Hao's archery.

Li Wen got off the horse and said with a triumphant smile: "How about it, it's worthy of being your brother, right?" This autumn hunt follows Brother A, and you will be guaranteed a bumper harvest. ”

"It's a bit tricky, but ...... Not bad, either. ”

The brother and sister whispered while watching Yu Linwei's performance on the field. Xuan'er found out that in their red team, there was a very small sergeant with a childish smile, and his age would definitely not exceed ten years old.

"Vice General Yang, how can there be such a small sergeant in Yulin Weili?" She couldn't help but ask curiously.

Yang Huaixin stood three steps away from her, and he smiled:

"His name is Yang Fuguang, and like me, he is also the righteous son recognized by my father-in-law. Although he was young, his greatest wish was to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, so my father-in-law asked me to take him with me. ”

Yang Fuguang, who was on the horse, used the same method as Yang Huaixin, and with a "boom", the arrow was shot out, but unfortunately, when it hit the edge of the copper coin, the copper coin shook up sharply, but it did not fall.

Yang Fuguang got off the horse, his eyes were red, and he didn't dare to look at his brother and princess.

The princess walked over, patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, you're younger than me, and when you're older, you can protect me." Now, it's up to me to protect you. ”

On a two-storey mighty pavilion on the edge of the martial arts arena, two people looked at Yang Huaixin and the others coldly.

"He really has the courage to make friends with the prince behind my back."

"The person who came to report just now said that it was the eldest prince and a few of them, and they took the initiative to go over, maybe, it was just a coincidence."

"It just so happens that you won't refuse? I've been paying attention to him for a long time, and his wings are stiff...... Yang Xuan's old man, the few righteous sons he received, all of them were stuffed into the forbidden army, do you think this is also a coincidence? ”

"This ...... The old slave didn't dare to say it. ”

When only the last shooter was left on either side, the two people in the pavilion disappeared as if they had been blown away by the wind.
