26: Fake play
Looking at the lonely arrow stuck in the dirt, the emperor stood behind him and laughed.
"Hahahahahaha, is Concubine Ai going to laugh to death?"
Yin Xiaoxi turned around with white eyes and glared at the emperor behind him who was smiling with his facial features twisted together, snorted coldly angrily, threw the bow to the ground, and wrapped his hands around him, pretending to be angry.
"Your Majesty, is this a joke about the concubine?" looks like a child angry.
Father-in-law Mo and Xiaocui beside him also covered their mouths and snickered.
Seeing this, the emperor finally laughed a few more times before he stopped laughing, stepped forward in a serious manner, held Yin Xiaoxi's slender shoulders with both hands, stretched his head to his neck, and said softly, "Why did Concubine Ai think about practicing archery?" ”
Yin Xiaoxi still maintained an angry and somewhat disappointed look, and sighed, "Didn't the emperor say that he would take his concubines to hunt?"
The concubine thought that it was overgrown with weeds and no one came, it was a good place to practice archery, and the concubine didn't want to embarrass the emperor.
Who would have thought that the first to laugh at the concubines was actually the emperor, hum, the concubines were hunted and didn't go. ”
When the emperor heard this, he hurriedly bypassed Yin Xiaoxi and walked to the place where the arrow was inserted in front of the arrow target, picked up the arrow, turned around and walked to Yin Xiaoxi, "Then how can I teach you?" ”
Yin Xiaoxi smiled at this time, revealing a standard sweet smile, and asked coquettishly, "Really?" ”
The emperor smiled, "When did I never speak?" ”
Yin Xiaoxi raised his chin, "Yes, the emperor said before that he would go to Wangchun Pavilion, but the concubines waited for a day and didn't see the emperor."
The concubine has been deceived by the emperor once, and she doesn't dare to trust the emperor easily~"
The emperor thought that last time he clearly said that he would go to Wangchun Pavilion in the morning, but he was called by the Queen Mother to coax the Liu nobles, and finally broke his promise.
"I promise that I will never break my promise in the future, can I be satisfied with my concubine?"
Yin Xiaoxi nodded, and then agreed, pulling the emperor to start practicing archery immediately.
The emperor stood behind Yin Xiaoxi, his broad palm tightly held Yin Xiaoxi's white and tender jade hand, held the bow in his left hand, placed the arrow on the string with his right hand, and pulled it back hard, staring at the arrow target in front of him without squinting.
The emperor let go forcefully, and Yin Xiaoxi's hand also loosened.
"Huh"
The arrow flew out and hit the target, but instead of hitting the bull's-eye, it landed on the edge of the target.
However, the emperor was very satisfied with this achievement, and applauded, "Concubine Ai is really talented and intelligent, and she will be able to teach it." ”
Father-in-law Mo, Xiao Cui, and the accompanying guards behind him also clapped their hands and applauded, "The emperor has taught well, and Yin Guiren is talented and intelligent." ”
Yin Xiaoxi raised his chin proudly, with an expression that I would say it's very simple.
The emperor patted Yin Xiaoxi's head with satisfaction, "The children can be taught, and the children can be taught." ”
The emperor was very satisfied with his teaching results, and pulled Yin Xiaoxi to practice for a long time, until it was getting dark, and Gonggong Mo beside him reminded, "Your Majesty, it's getting late, don't go again, I'm afraid that Concubine Liu should be in a hurry." ”
Yin Xiaoxi heard Gonggong Mo's words, but pretended not to hear them, pulled the emperor and asked, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, is it like this?" ”
The emperor just wanted to reply to Gonggong Mo's words, but was pulled by Yin Xiaoxi like this, directly ignored what Gonggong Mo said, waved his big hand to silence him, and turned around to correct Yin Xiaoxi's posture.
When the time came, the hall was already dark because it was uninhabited, and only the lanterns held by the fathers-in-law behind him were lit.
Yin Xiaoxi was also tired, and stretched his waist, "Ah~ I'm so tired, I don't practice anymore, I feel that I have mastered the trick and essence of archery." It's like a prodigy in the world, and you can learn it as soon as you learn it. ”
The emperor looked at Yin Xiaoxi's triumphant appearance, and patted her head dotingly, "It's still early for you." ”
Yin Xiaoxi didn't think so, "On the day of the hunt, I want everyone to see Yin Xiaoxi, who knows a different thing." As he spoke, he shot the last arrow in his hand at the target.
It's just that the arrow still only landed on the edge of the target.
The emperor once again looked happy, "Hahahahaha, I'll wait and see." And how can you ride a horse? ”
Yin Xiaoxi shook his head like a rattle, "No." ”
I had inquired with Xiaocui before I came, Yin Xiaoxi was proficient in calligraphy and painting, but she didn't know how to do it at riding, which General Yin was best at.
Originally, these two things were learned by boys, she was a girl, General Yin just wanted her to learn some of the things that everyone did beautifully, for fear that she would dance with knives and guns all day long, ride horses and shoot arrows, and be laughed at, so she was forbidden to learn.
But it just so happened that riding and archery happened to be what she, a wild child who lived in the grasslands of Inner Mongolia since she was a child, was what she was best at.
The emperor smiled with relief, and now he had another opportunity to show his other talent to Concubine Ai, and waved his hand and said, "Come to the racecourse tomorrow, and I will teach you personally." ”
Yin Xiaoxi happily pulled up the emperor's arm, put his face on the emperor's arm, and looked attached and worshipped, "The emperor is so powerful~"
Gonggong Mo, who was beside him, saw Yin Guiren pulling the emperor's sleeve and was about to step forward to stop him, but was stopped by a cold look from the emperor, his footsteps stopped in place, and his hand was immediately withdrawn.
That's it, that's it, this Yin Guiren should go with her, it seems that the emperor will not restrain her more.
And the emperor, a second ago, threw a cold look at Grandpa Mo, which looked like a sharp knife stabbing at Grandpa Mo, making Grandpa Mo's back chill and unable to move.
In the next second, when he heard Yin Xiaoxi praise him for being so powerful, he immediately changed his doting expression and laughed heartily.
Seeing that it was indeed late, the emperor also yawned, and said to Gonggong Mo, "Send the Zhu Jade Ge, who is newly paid tribute from the southwest, to Fangfei Palace, and say that I will deal with official business until late at night, and if I am tired, I will go and accompany her another day." ”
Pulling up Yin Xiaoxi and about to go out, he stopped after just two steps, and commanded sharply, "If today's events are spread, no matter who spreads them, all the people present today will be killed." ”
After finishing speaking, the accompanying father-in-law and guards all understood that they didn't want anyone to leak the news to the Queen Mother and Concubine Liu, so as not to happen again when they were forced to coax Concubine Liu by the Queen Mother.
They all lowered their heads and replied with pale faces, "No."
Yin Xiaoxi took the emperor's sedan chair, and after being escorted back to Wangchun Pavilion by the emperor, the emperor was also tired, so he went back to the Summer Palace to rest.
Yin Xiaoxi looked at the arrow target taken out in the afternoon in the courtyard, stood a little farther away, raised the bow in his hand, and wound the arrow.
His eyes were fixed on the center of the target, and his right hand pulled the string back vigorously.
Xiao Cui beside him smiled and said, "Master, don't practice, you have made a lot of progress today, didn't the emperor praise your son for being teachable."
I'm going to learn to ride a horse tomorrow, so let's rest today, and you won't hit the bull's-eye if you practice again.
The emperor didn't hit your hand before, not to mention that it's still so far away, don't shoot miss, shoot at the sweeping palace maid. ”
When the sweeping palace maid heard this, she hurriedly dodged away, for fear that her master's arrow would really fall on her.
"Huh"
At the moment when the palace maid dispersed, the arrow came out of the string.
From a distance, fly straight towards the target.
Right in the bull's-eye.
Xiao Cui stood aside and opened her mouth in shock, "Master, how are you ......?"
looked at Yin Xiaoxi again, and raised his eyebrows at her with an expression that everything was under control.
