Chapter 120: Competition
"Then you can't go back!" Mingyi's eyes are round and shining, and the corners of his mouth are about to rise to the sky, where is there still half a point of anger.
Several people laughed together.
"Good, good." Tong Yan wiped the tears from her laughter and nodded again and again.
The family was happy and the family was sad, and hearing the laughter and laughter on their side, Princess Anle's godless eyes blinked, and she turned her head to look at them a little stiffly.
Looking at Tong Yan's smiling face, as if she had been stabbed by the light, she fluttered her eyelashes slightly.
Does Brother Huai really like Zhaoyang? It must have been forced.
She sat up straight, raised her chin, and looked at Cheng Huai, who was sitting on a horse and holding the reins in the field.
Even the back of a horse fascinated her.
A mist drifted into her eyes.
No, she has to ask Brother Huai in person if she really wants to marry that Zhaoyang!
An Le's eyes were resolute, he stood up with his skirt and was about to walk to the middle of the field.
Frightened, the palace maid hurriedly stopped in front of her, and pleaded in a low voice, "Princess, the field is dangerous, the arrows have no eyes, and you can't go over!" ”
Not only Tong Yan and the others looked over, but the emperor and empress and others also looked over, Jiang Shufei stretched her neck and twisted her brows, and her long nails tightly buckled the desk.
An Le paused, just staring at the person she had been thinking about day and night.
It's a pity that even if everyone in the audience looks at her, he won't look at her.
"Princess." The palace maids were about to cry and begged quietly.
It would be nice if Miss Jiang was here, and she could persuade the princess, but when it was so fatal, Miss Jiang was not there! Grandpa heaven, grandpa, let the princess go back, make a mess, they are subordinates, do you want your head!
As if she hadn't heard, An Le stood there for a moment before slowly returning to her seat.
The palace maid's heart, which was hanging in her throat, finally fell back into her stomach, and she hurriedly helped An Le to sit back.
Concubine Jiang Shufei also breathed a sigh of relief, with a hint of a smile on her face.
Pazil looked at An Le, his eyes lit up, he stood up and asked the emperor with a smile, "......What is that beautiful girl?"
The emperor was vigilant in his heart, and said with a light smile, "That's my third princess, Princess Anle." ”
Seeing that the emperor looked reluctant to talk more, Pazil smiled and nodded, and did not ask again.
Unexpectedly, the Queen Mother was very happy, and she didn't know who she was talking to, and she said to herself in a slightly louder voice, "An Le is also older now, and it will be time to meet this winter, and it is time to consider marriage." ”
These words clearly reached the ears of the emperor, Pazil and others.
Concubine Jiang Shu's face changed, and she looked at the Queen Mother and said repeatedly, "An Le is still young, still young." ”
"I heard that the second prince is strong in martial arts, and his kung fu in riding and archery is even better, why don't you show your hand?" The emperor neither paid attention to the Queen Mother nor the concubine, but changed the topic with a smile.
"It's better to be respectful than to obey." Pazil also learned from the Central Plains, arched his hand, and looked at the field with a smile, "That, the son is extraordinary, I want to have a discussion with him, I don't know if it's okay?" ”
The person he said was naturally Cheng Huai.
The emperor readily agreed.
Pazil is much older than Cheng Huai, even if he wins, there is no embarrassment, but if Cheng Shizi wins, it will be Pazil and Southern Xinjiang who will lose face.
I don't know if this Pazil is too simple and doesn't think so much, or because he is very confident in his own strength.
Cheng Huai naturally couldn't refuse.
The two competed in archery.
It's a pity that this is not a paddock, and it can't even be compared to a school yard.
In terms of target shooting, the two are comparable, ten arrows and ten hits, there is no gap, and the two of them rode horses and galloped and shot continuously, but they didn't expect that both of them could do five arrows in a row, which caused everyone to exclaim and admire.
Pazil praised Cheng Huai a few words of appreciation, and seemed to appreciate him.
However, Cheng Huai just smiled faintly and nodded.
Just as the emperor laughed and wanted to reward the two of them, the four princes of southern Xinjiang stood up and said loudly, he also wants to compare with Cheng Huai, not archery, but martial arts.
The second prince frowned, and said in a hurry, "Xiri Ahong, Cheng Shizi just tried to play archery with me, and his physical strength has not yet recovered, so don't take advantage of others." ”
"What kind of physical strength does archery cost, a dignified man is not a weak woman, brother, don't exaggerate your words." The four princes of Southern Xinjiang disagreed, he saluted the emperor, and said, "I don't know if Cheng Shizi is good at martial arts, if he is outstanding, please grant my request." ”
Cheng Huai was still smiling faintly, looking like he did what he wanted.
The emperor was very interested, leaned forward and asked, "I wonder what the four princes want to compare?" ”
"It's like a long sword, I heard that the people of the Central Plains are very good at swordsmanship, Cheng Shizi, how?" Xiri Ahong spoke a non-standard Chinese, and looked at Cheng Huai with a bit of provocation.
"Listen to me." Cheng Huai's tone was flat, and he arched his hand with a smile.
The emperor asked Tong Fu to fetch two identical long swords.
Tong Yan has never seen Cheng Huai use a sword, nor has she ever seen Cheng Huai compete with others, let alone two people who know martial arts fighting.
She craned her neck intently to look into the middle of the field.
Unexpectedly, without waiting for Cheng Huai to draw his sword, Xiri Ahong quickly stabbed him in the neck, which was so fast that everyone did not react, and it was a direct stab.
Cheng Huai's footsteps were as fast as a shadow, and in the blink of an eye, he had already retreated several feet out, and the cold sword was unsheathed, and it effortlessly resisted the sharp tip of Xiri Ahong.
He raised an eyebrow, the corners of his lips slightly hooked.
I don't know if it was his somewhat playful expression that angered Xiri Ahong, or Xiri Ahong was angry that he blocked his sword, the two froze for a while, and after retracting the blade of the sword, Xiri Ahong snorted coldly from his nose.
Just stopped slightly, and the two of them slashed out at the same time, the two black clothes were entangled, the clothes were excited, and when the two silver swords crossed, they splashed like lightning and flint.
Xiri Ahong's eyes were sharp, and the sword was deadly, but it was a pity that each sword was either dodged by Cheng Huai, or was pushed away by Cheng Huai with a sword blade.
After a few moves, Cheng Huai was at ease, while Xiri Ahong shaved his lips and pursed his lips, and there was fine sweat on his forehead, and he didn't know whether he was anxious or tired.
Seeing that Xiri Ahong was already impatient, Cheng Huai's face remained unchanged, and the internal force poured into the blade, entangled the opponent's long sword like a whirlwind, and pulled it hard.
Xiri Ahong has nothing to do, if he doesn't follow the force, the long sword in his hand can only be pulled off by him, and suddenly the force suddenly loosens, just when he stabilized his body, Cheng Huai turned around, flashed behind Xiri Ahong like a ghost, Xiri Ahong was shocked, and quickly turned around, but it was too late, Cheng Huai's sword blade had stopped steadily in front of his throat less than an inch away.
Cheng Huai took back the sword, pulled a sword flower, inserted the sword back into the sheath smoothly, and said lightly, "Accept it." ”
Pazil's face was a little ugly, but soon he laughed and said loudly, "The prince is strong in martial arts, admire and admire." ”
And Xiri Ahong was a little unexpected, Cheng Huai thought he would be angry, but he didn't expect him to smile, withdraw his sword, and also learn from Cheng Huai and said, "It's because my skills are not as good as others, and the world is amazing!" ”
