Zi Chu took a deep look at Zi Ye, then picked up the bow and arrow, and immediately released the arrow before the drum sounded, the action was done in one go, it seemed that hitting the bull's-eye was a very simple and random thing for him, and he didn't need to make any preparations at all.

Sure enough, he hit the bull's-eye!

"Good!" The father stood up and looked at Zi Chu and praised, and the queen smiled slightly.

"Your Majesty, both of them hit the bull's-eye, it can only be regarded as a draw," Concubine Ping reminded her father, "This ......" The father looked at Zichu, obviously more inclined to Zichu.

I also heard Mama say that compared to Ziye, my father and emperor prefer Zi Chu, so the status of the eldest prince in the palace and the court is not as good as that of Zi Chu, who is younger than him.

"Then how about another competition?" Father's Road.

"No need, father, since the son is a brother, naturally he can't take the emperor's brother's love, just give this bow and crossbow to Zi Chu," Zi Ye seemed to be unwilling.

"Father, the son's archery skills are not as good as the emperor's brother, and I feel ashamed of it" Zi Chu also gave in.

"Then give it to me, father," Zixuan said at this time, he was tired of playing with that thing, so he asked his father for this bow and crossbow again, Zixuan was young and simple, so he naturally didn't understand this.

Father laughed and said, "If you really don't want it, then I will give it to Zixuan," the two of them looked at each other and said in unison: "If the son doesn't accept it, just give it to the sixth brother!" ”

Then Zixuan had two playthings.

Seeing Zi Xuan throw the exquisite treasure below, I can't help but be funny and angry, in fact, this exquisite treasure is quite mysterious, only the people who make it know how many different things it can become, Zi Xuan must not be good enough to operate so he feels bored.

After everyone dispersed, I called Zixuan aside, "You just threw away that thing?" I asked him, "There's nothing fun about that thing, does Sister Qingluan want it?" I'll give it to you," he said, handing it to me.

I took the Linglong Baibao and told him while pressing the five switches in the back: "This thing is called Linglong Baibao, and you can control the switches in the back to change into different shapes, as for how much it can be conjured, it depends on how skilled the person who plays with this thing is." ”

Zixuan curiously watched me conjure up a different trick from just now, and pleaded: "Sister Qingluan, then can you teach me well." In fact, we are much different in age.

At this time, I felt a pair of burning eyes looking at me, it turned out to be Qing Li, and she pulled Zixuan over to the palace maid beside her

said: "Take the six princes back to Zhaoyang Hall first," and then sneered: "Do you really think you are a royal princess?" While pretending to be sick to win the sympathy of his father, he came to provoke Zixuan, I am Zixuan's sister, what are you? ”

Mama said angrily: "Princess Zhaowen ......" Before she finished speaking, Qing Li scolded everyone: "Does the princess have a slave and maid to interject?" Don't hurry up and get out of here", but the crowd didn't move a single step, her face sank, and she ordered: "Come on, ......" "Slow down," I saw her like this, so I said to Mama and Red Heart and the others: "You go back to the palace first, and I'll be back later," and they reluctantly left.

I don't know why she reacted so much, and I didn't want to deal with her, but she said angrily: "You stole the limelight in the hall that day, and today my father also gave you "peach blossom makeup", you like to rob me so much, right?" "It turned out that she had a grudge against her, but didn't she know that her father protected her like that in front of the assassins that day?

I smiled bitterly, and then was about to leave, but she grabbed my hand and gritted her teeth and said, "If it weren't for my father's pity for you, do you think he would have made you a princess?" Your mother's family was a rebel of the previous dynasty, and you should have been a prisoner of the defense of the country, and you were scolded by thousands of people. ”

"Shut up," I finally couldn't bear it anymore, she didn't get angry and laughed, "Do you think your father loves your mother very much?" He was only forced to marry the daughter of the Jiao family, the richest man in Jiangling that year, "I was poked in the sore spot, and I was very angry in my heart, but I didn't know how to refute it, so I could only bite my lip tightly."

"Hmph, you'll never want to fight with me," she sneered and walked away.

I don't know how I walked back to the dormitory, but when my grandmother saw me, I was already in tears, and Green Banana exclaimed, "Ah! Princess, why is your mouth bleeding," Mama helped me, looked carefully at my lips, and then wiped it with a handkerchief, and a slight trace of blood was imprinted on it.

Mama looked at me distressedly, and said to the red heart: "Take good care of the princess, I want to go to the queen's mother," I hurriedly stopped her and said, "Mama, don't go, I have something to ask you." She reluctantly turned back.

The room was a little dim, the candlelight flickered, flickered and flickered, and I retreated left and right, leaving only Mama. "Mama, why did my father marry my mother, and why did the Jiao family rebel," I took her hands and looked at her expectantly.

Mama seemed a little surprised, she evaded, "Princess, the slave maid will go and fetch you some water to wash your face," "I'll wash it later, Mama, you answer me first", I said anxiously shaking her hands.

"Princess, no matter what Princess Zhaowen says to you, don't listen to it," Mama continued: "What a glory the Jiao family was back then, the emperor who was still the prince at that time met the young lady in the Jiao Mansion, and the next day let the queen mother give her a marriage, and the young lady was even named the crown princess, and the emperor and the young lady have always respected each other. ”

"Then why did the Jiao family rebel?" I asked reluctantly, "This slave and maid don't know, at that time, the slave and the young lady followed the emperor in Jiang Kingdom, and they didn't know much about the things here," Mama said, her eyes looking away.

"Princess, what's the matter with your mouth?" Mama changed the topic and said, since this is the case, I don't want to ask any more. I wiped it, and there was a slight stain of blood, "It's okay," I replied.

"How can it be okay, the princess is a golden body, except for the emperor and the queen, no one can wronged the princess, and neither can Princess Zhaowen," she said angrily and passionately, and was about to go to the queen, I hurriedly dragged her and said: "Mama, it's just a trivial matter, don't alarm the queen." ”

"Princess," Mama said suddenly, earnestly, "The slave knows that the princess has a good heart and will tolerate everything, but princess, it is useless to tolerate in this palace, it will only make the people who bully you feel that you are a bully." ”

I felt very aggrieved, tears flowed down my eyes, and I asked, "Mama, why?" Why can't you talk well and get along well, I don't care if I will be treated as weak and bullied, I work hard to win my father and the emperor still loves Qingli the most, why is this so? ”

"Princess, the old slave has a sentence that has been in his heart for a long time, and today he has to say it at the risk of offending the princess, although the old slave has only served the princess, but he has seen many masters, and there has never been a princess like this."

I looked at her in amazement, and she met my gaze and continued: "Spoiling and not being shocked, advancing and retreating in moderation, this is the etiquette that a royal princess should have, but the princess is soft and weak like a slave maid......"

"Presumptuous," I said angrily, for it was the first time I had been so angry, for the man who knew me best had said something that no one dared to say to my heart, and I felt like a man stripped naked, and my ugliness was visible like a festering scar.

She knelt down with a "plop" and kowtowed heavily to me, "The slave has offended the princess, please punish the slave and maid." But I couldn't punish her, "I beg the princess to punish the slave," her head hit the ground hard, and a red mark appeared on her forehead.

I couldn't bear to help her up, but she pushed my hand away and continued to knock. "Mama, don't force me, get up quickly," I cried and helped her, but she knocked hard, and blood slowly flowed down her forehead.

"Come, drag this slave who has committed the following offences out of the house and scold her for twenty strokes," I cried out. Then Mama didn't knock again, and was dragged out by two guards.

"What's the matter, princess" Red Heart and Green Banana stepped forward and asked anxiously, watching Mama being dragged out, and knelt down again, "Princess, please spare Mama!" I couldn't stop crying, and I couldn't help but cover my eyes and cry bitterly.
