At this time, Chu Juechen, Qin Liusu and Qin Liumo, Li Ye of Shangshu Mansion, Shi Jun, the son of Lord Shishu, and a few other sons in Gaomen Mansion, as soon as everyone saw Chu Jiechen coming, they all coaxed and said, "It's started~"

Everyone is a little young, and there is not so much humility and respect between the host and guest among the playmates, and Chu Jiechen does not pay much attention to the etiquette and rules in the game, so he called a few small servants and attendants behind him to serve as ceremonial students, Si Shot, Zengsheng and Si Zheng.

Several people drew lots separately, and after drawing Jing Wei, one side was led by Chu Juechen, and the other side was headed by Qin Liumo, each with twenty feather arrows, and tassels were tied to the handle of the arrows, so that they could be scored. Each alternates to vote. If there is an arrow that pops out after entering the pot, no matter which side it is presented on the ground, it will be counted as a chip and a half. The mouth of the pot was about three inches, the neck of the pot was seven inches, and the belly was about five inches long, and it contained a small half pot of soybeans, which was placed vertically six feet away from the crowd.

Recently, Chu Jiechen has been playing with Qin Liumo and them in his spare time after class. In the past few months, he has good hands and eyesight, and he has grown even more, regardless of whether the small pot is placed horizontally, vertically or diagonally, Chu Jiechen must be able to enter it as soon as he makes a move.

If it was one-on-one, Chu Juechen would not have lost the truth, but Qin Liumo and Li Ye's side may not have his ability. After half a pillar of incense, the two pairs of people and horses fought against each other, and it was Qin Liumo who had two and a half chips on their side. Shi Jun and Li Ye also love to play pitchers, but their temperaments are also competitive and straightforward, so Li Ye can only do nothing about Qin Liumo's frequent hints.

Sure enough, Li Ye's comparison was a step more than the score just now. Qin Liumo was the oldest among the crowd, and he was taught by his father from time to time, so he didn't dare to let His Royal Highness Qi San and other princes lose face in public, so he deliberately fell behind at this time.

When Qin Liusu came up, Qin Liusu's little face was even more heroic and sassy when he was dressed in men's clothes, Chu Jiechen lost his mind for a moment, and said secretly, Su'er is worthy of being the descendant of Xiao Yun and Xiao Female General, and she really has the same pride as General Xiao. At this time, Qin Liumo also happened to secretly give Qin Liusu a look.

Qin Liumo saw that Qin Liusu didn't pay attention to his instructions, and he was secretly anxious in his heart, so he had to secretly glance at the next person. That person happened to be Chu Juechen's attendant, Zuo Shangshu's servant shot Zhang Lian's son, Zhang Jing. He had been by Chu Juechen's side for almost three years, and he was naturally familiar with royal etiquette and various rules. So as soon as he received the look that Qin Liumo secretly handed over, he understood the meaning. So after that, under his deliberate deflection of the arrow, there was only one arrow away from Chu Juechen's side.

The last pair was Qin Liumo against our Third Highness Chu Juechen, but under Qin Liumo's deliberateness, he was two points behind, and Chu Juechen's side narrowly won by one chip. The people on Qin Liumo's side all bowed their hands to the people on Chu Juechen's side, Chu Juechen looked at Qin Liumo with a secret smile, Qin Liumo smiled bitterly, and had to lower his head.

Qin Liusu looked at his brother Qin Liumo, who was secretly relieved, and then looked at Chu Juechen, who was triumphant on the surface, and wanted to laugh in his heart, but he was very helpless, so he snorted and sat down. So he turned his head to look for the distant scene in the pavilion. At this time, it is the Zhongxing Festival, although there are usually few people outside the city, but it is a festival at this time, so there are still many sons and ladies outside the city who take advantage of the festival to say some unclear words at night.

"Tut~......" Qin Liusu sighed softly when he looked at this scene. At this time, Chu Juechen was closest to her, and when he heard this, he glanced at it, and the little ridicule on Qin Liusu's lips had not yet melted away, so he fell into Chu Juechen's eyes without leaking, he was a little helpless, so he immediately walked in front of Qin Liusu, relying on his height as a seven-foot man, he leaned over and looked at Qin Liusu, who was sitting on the armrest of the pavilion, and said condescendingly: "What? Liumo lost to me, are you still not convinced? ”

When Qin Liusu heard this, he looked up at Chu Juechen, and there was not only the young man's disbelief, but also the secret joy that he might be able to win back a game. Seeing him smile at himself again, the fighting spirit that had been lost for a while suddenly came up again.

Qin Liumo has been paying attention to Qin Liusu's reaction, and he is afraid that his sister will be sold by Chu Juechen's old fox if she is not careful. At this point, Qin Liumo saw that the situation on Qin Liusu's side had become delicate, and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Third Highness, we lost by one and a half, naturally we feel regretful, but if we lose, we will lose, and we can only admit that our skills are not as good as others, and we will never be dissatisfied." ”

Chu Juechen tilted his head slightly, squinted his eyes and smiled at Qin Liumo with a respectful face, and said with a smile: "I don't think you are inferior to others...... "Besides, Su'er's archery skills are taught by masters, so it shouldn't be so bad, right?" After speaking, he raised his eyebrows and winked at Qin Liusu from an angle that everyone couldn't see. Qin Liusu thought that this was the Chu Juechen she knew, how could it become so unreasonable...... Serious...... Finish.

Qin Liusu looked at Chu Juechen's cunning eyes, his eyes lit up, he stood up and said loudly: "Your Highness is refreshing, and I will not be ambiguous." His Highness's pitching skills are indeed outstanding, and I am not as good as His Highness. But there are people outside of people, and there are heavens outside of heaven. After returning home, does Your Highness dare to really compare with my brother? ”

Chu Jiechen was stunned for a moment, and asked slyly, "Are you telling the truth?" ”

Qin Liusu smiled and said, "That's natural, if you come to us tomorrow, my brother and I will be waiting for Your Highness here." After speaking, he smiled at Chu Juechen, turned around and rushed into the crowd.

During the Zhongxing Festival, push the cup and change the lamp. Outside the lake pavilion, the agarwood curled up, and everyone smiled at each other, as if the episode just now was not counted in it, or it didn't seem to exist at all. Between the three glasses of light wine, time passed in a hurry, and everyone looked at the night outside the pavilion, and apologized one after another, saying, Your Highness, it is getting late, and it is not early, we should go back. Chu Jiechen still wanted to keep them to play for a while, but then he thought that Qin Liusu was still a woman, although she was still wearing men's clothes, but it was so late, it was better to go back early, so as not to reassure Mrs. Qin.

So, they all waved their hands and said, "Everyone, it's really fun today, it's been a long time since I've had such a happy holiday." If it's getting late today, it's better for you to go back early. After speaking, Chu Jiechen also looked at Qin Liusu and Qin Liumo. Qin Liumo understood, arched his hand, and pulled Qin Liusu back to the house.

The next day, Chu Jiechen came to the place agreed with Qin Liusu and Qin Liumo last night as promised. Just when Chu Jiechen was already waiting impatiently, Qin Liumo came, followed by this Qin Liusu and Mandarin Duck.

Because there was no one today, Qin Liusu changed back into women's clothes, and followed Qin Liumo and the mandarin duck slowly. If this were an ordinary person, Chu Juechen would have to slap the table and turn his face and copy the house, but there was no way, what he was waiting for was Qin Liusu, and there was no way, so he could only wait stiffly. Qin Liusu was a little late because he went back yesterday, so he got up a little late today, as soon as he saw Chu Juechen's not very good face, he knew that it was his masterpiece, and walked forward with a smile, learning from Qin Liumo's gentlemen to the end, and said softly: "Your Highness has been waiting for a long time." ”

As soon as Chu Jiechen saw Qin Liusu wearing women's clothes, but doing the courtesy of a man's family, he was also angry at the moment, after all, he had rarely seen Qin Liusu so cute and so delicate.

After the salute, Qin Liusu said: "Your Highness, do you remember what you promised me last night, there is no one today, I won't let my brother let you~" After speaking, he squeezed his fist with a gesture, not to mention how cute it is. Even the mandarin duck beside him smiled secretly: "When did Miss become so cute." ”

Chu Juechen coughed lightly and said, "That's nature, otherwise how could I have come over?" Su'er, don't cry when you lose. As soon as Qin Liumo heard that he was about to start, he said: "Then I'll be the opponent of His Highness's pot thrower, although my skills are not perfect, I can still give it a try." ”

Chu Juechen said: "If you have real skills, it is naturally very good, if not, but don't release water like last night, do you think I'm stupid, I can't see it when it's so obvious?" Otherwise, Su'er is estimated to be disobedient again, hahahaha......" Chu Juechen smiled heartily. It was only in front of the Qin family brothers and sisters that he could express his emotions so unscrupulously.

Qin Liumo listened to Chu Juechen's words, glanced at his good sister-in-law, and said funny: "That's natural, I won't let you this time, come on." Qin Liusu glanced at his brother who was dragged into the water by himself, glanced at Chu Jiechen slyly, raised his eyebrows, not to mention how proud he was in that little appearance.

So the mandarin duck stepped forward and took the arrows and gave them to Qin Liumo and Chu Jiechen respectively. After the two of them took the arrow, Qin Liusu calmed down his mind and pondered for a moment before saying: "One person has twelve arrows, the pot is placed in a lying position, and one arrow is counted as one, and the arrow that pops up, if it is on the yang side, it is counted as two chips, and the yin side is reduced by one." With that, he and the mandarin duck went to the table next to them to pour tea for them.

Qin Liumo said solemnly: "Okay! He smiled again and said: "All competitions must have colorful heads, does Your Highness dare to respond?" ”

Chu Juechen sneered: "Since you dare to answer, how can I not dare to respond?" If I win, you and Su'er will do one thing for me. ”

Qin Liumo saw that Chu Jiechen was confident and bound to win, and saw that the sister who really poured tea for them showed a little surprise on her face, shook Qin Liusu's shoulder with a smile, and said to Chu Jiechen: "I promise Your Highness." If I am lucky enough to win over Your Highness, I want Your Highness to have something by your side. ”

Chu Juechen said strangely: "It's rare to hear that you have something to ask for, let's hear it?" Qin Liumo turned his head to Qin Liusu, "Su'er, what do you want from Your Highness?" Qin Liusu tilted his head and thought for a while and said, "I want the horned bow of His Highness's last hunting envoy." ”

Chu Juechen was stunned for a moment, "Are you sure about this?" Su'er's hobbies are unique. ”

Qin Liusu said: "I know, I have seen His Highness play with it a few times, and I like it too." ”

As soon as Qin Liusu heard what they said, he happily slapped the table: "Brother, come on!" Chu Juechen saw Qin Liusu's posture and his lips opened and closed, and he didn't ask anything, "If you win, come and take it." Turning around and walking to the front of the pot, the attendant beside him immediately respectfully handed over the first arrow, Chu Jiechen gently took it, pinched it with three fingers, raised his hand and raised his sleeve, and the bamboo arrow crossed a shallow arc, hitting the heart of the pot.

Qin Liusu stood beside him, rolled up his sleeves, took a bamboo arrow, raised his wrist lightly, and threw the arrow into the pot. I saw that the two of them looked focused, and the arrows were flying in the air, alternately investing, no matter up or down, it was difficult to distinguish. Qin Liusu and Mandarin Duck looked at it and were also excited. The arrows beside the two of them gradually decreased, and there were still as many chips. Until the last arrow, Chu Juechen put it in accurately, and he got twelve chips, but Qin Liumo's one bounced out. Qin Liusu, who was onlookers, immediately stepped forward, Chu Juechen won by luck, a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead, looking at Qin Liusu's surprised eyes, he didn't say anything, and smiled faintly. Qin Liumo saw that he had lost, so he raised his head to wipe the sweat on his head and said, "Your Highness, congratulations on winning!" Then he said slightly apologetically: "Su'er, I disappointed you." ”

Qin Liusu was surprised when he saw that his brother had lost, and secretly said, it was cheap. Then he patted his brother on the shoulder, "It's okay, you are the first in my heart." After speaking, he raised his head to the mandarin duck, and the mandarin duck also smiled bitterly.

After the game, several people chatted in the pavilion for a while, ate something, and did not separate one by one until the sun set. What Qin Liusu didn't know was that Chu Juechen watched her leave with a smile.
