The "archery conference" of the Feng family's siblings officially began under Lu Yuniang's repeated explanation.

Each person is given five arrows, first to count who has the most arrows in the bull's-eye, and then to calculate the speed. That is, the note mentioned by Fang Cai Feng Xuji. It refers to the use of arrows and bows to shoot at targets in a very short aiming time, which is a project that makes the audience feel enjoyable and the shooter feels a sense of accomplishment in archery.

This time, Lu Yuniang should be the referee.

After each of the five people took a suitable bow, they walked out of the small pavilion and stood ten steps in front of the target, which was about five zhang away, and Feng Xuke thought about it, and automatically retreated a little with a few siblings, which was considered to be a little bit for the young Feng Zhirong.

Lu Yuniang saw that everyone was ready, and said that she wanted to give a high-five as a signal to start.

When Lu Yuniang high-fived, the five of them began to shoot arrows at the same time.

Feng Zhirong did not play the trick of archery with King Jing that day, but tried to reach the most accurate position as quickly as possible. Five arrows were shot out in a row, and the speed was also the best, which was not an insult to the usual practice.

As for the speed of the other brothers, although Feng Xuji's speed is slower than Feng Xuke's, all five arrows hit the bull's-eye; Feng Xuke and Feng Zhangshu are indistinguishable, they both have four arrows in the bull's-eye, and the last arrow is a little off the distance, and the speed is comparable; As for Feng Zhangli, who was in the year of Zhixue, he also had five arrows in the target, and one of the arrows was in the bull's-eye.

Feng Zhirong didn't compare arrows with others, but at the moment, she was nervous and her forehead oozed moisture.

When I wanted to take out a handkerchief to wipe my sweat, I heard a "Okay!" Along with applause.

Everyone looked over and found that it was Feng Xu and Feng Zhengdao who came together, so they put down the bows in their hands and saluted respectfully. "Grandfather, father." "Grandfather, uncle."

Feng Xu glanced at the target and said, "The girl practices shooting every day, you four children haven't shot arrows for a long time, but the results are also good." ”

Feng Xuji was the oldest, so he tacitly replied: "Grandfather is smiling, but the grandchildren are unskilled and can't afford to be praised by grandfather." ”

Feng Zhengdao said: "The four of you are already concentrating on preparing for the scientific examination, and it is natural that you are not familiar with the skills. ”

Feng Xu said: "Several of you are preparing for the scientific examination, and no matter what your career will be in the future, even if you can find an official and a half-job, you will have the opportunity to have a banquet, and then whether it is archery, chess, tea, etc., in addition to cultivating your temperament, you will be able to see your character." ”

Feng Xu is right, after all, in officialdom - and even on various occasions, it is one thing to work seriously, but if it involves social banquets, it is another skill. Although the Feng family has always refused the so-called "courtesy exchanges" and relatives, it is inevitable to socialize in the officialdom.

Regardless of the princes and princesses or the big families, there will always be large and small banquets, and the games in the banquet are just a few things.

The children who are usually officials, or raised by big families, can recite poems because they are familiar with poetry and books, but those children of poor families may not be able to master other skills, so there are many people who use these additional skills as a standard to judge a person's level of cultivation and rich heritage.

It's not that no one is unconvinced, saying that the poor family and the rich family can't choose, and those extra skills are not learned by ordinary poor children, how can you judge a person's self-cultivation by this?

But in the end, he was convinced, after all, in these skill games, a person's temperament and character can indeed be seen, and those poor children are just missing a chance to express themselves. Moreover, the children of the poor family have no time to complain before they reach a high position, so although they are more or less inclined to ridicule, they will not and cannot stop because of this.

"Daddy said yes." Feng Zhengdao continued Feng Xu's words and said: "The four of you are immersed in the room on weekdays, and it is good to be able to come out occasionally to stretch your muscles, and it is not much good to be bored in the room all day long. ”

The next person to speak was Feng Xuke: "Grandfather and father have taught me a lesson. ”

Feng Zhengdao nodded, looked at Feng Zhangshu and Feng Zhangli again, and said: "The Feng family is not as good as everyone else, and it doesn't treat you badly because the two of you are concubines...... After a pause, he said to the youngest Feng Zhangli: "If you are not as good as a few brothers, you will have to go to the exam early in this year's autumn season, and you have to have a snack." ”

A bitter look appeared on Feng Zhangli's face. He still remembers the quarrel between his aunt and his father a few months ago, although his father was willing to let him engage in business in the future, but in front of him, I am afraid that he has denied his intentions?

Feng Zhengdao looked at Feng Zhangli's bitterness, and added: "Your brothers have all passed the exam at one time, although you are young, but if you can't memorize this little book, it will not be easy to do anything in the future." ”

Feng Xu looked at his son's words to teach his grandson, and saw the bitterness on Feng Zhangli's face, and he already understood a little in his heart. However, Feng Zhangli's contemporaries and siblings did not understand Feng Zhangli's thoughts, nor did they know the deep meaning of Feng Zhengdao's words, so they only regarded Feng Zhengdao as literal to Feng Zhangli's words.

Feng Zhangli himself was straightforward, and he couldn't hear Feng Zhengdao's deep meaning for a while, so he could only say helplessly: "Father, the child has been taught." ”

Feng Zhengdao glanced at his father, and when he saw that Feng Xu didn't want to speak, he said to Feng Zhirong: "The girl's archery skills are getting more and more amazing. ”

Feng Zhirong said with a smile: "It's just getting used to it every day, and it's still a bully to my brother." ”

As soon as Feng Zhirong said this, the four big boys beside him all looked pale.

Feng Zhengdao found it interesting and said with a smile: "Thanks to my father for making people create such a place, I always felt strange in the past, but now it seems quite comfortable." ”

"You're such a dead brain." Feng Xu tugged at the corners of his mouth and said, "Although the Feng family is not a martial family, it can't let the children be bored and have no place to relax. ”

Feng Zhengdao was reprimanded by his old father like this, but he also restrained his color a little and said, "Dad is right." ”

Feng Xu had no intention of scolding his son, and after seeing that the five grandchildren except Feng Zhirong were also tense, he let them go to relax by themselves, and he waved his hand and returned to his study.

After Feng Xu left, the remaining cadres remained in place. Feng Zhirong saw that Feng Zhengdao didn't speak, so she asked, "Dad, why did you come back so early today?" ”

Feng Zhengdao replied: "The girl doesn't want her father to come back soon? ”

Feng Zhirong tugged at the corners of her mouth, secretly wondering when her father, who had always been rigid-minded, would start to laugh, so she also pouted slightly, showing a child's posture and said, "Dad will tease me too!" ”

Feng Zhengdao walked to the pavilion on the side, sat down and said, "I was still busy today, but Your Majesty sent someone to say that today is your birthday, and it's okay to take a break from work for half a day." ”

As soon as Feng Zhengdao's words came out, everyone present was surprised. Feng Xuke even said: "Little sister, how can He De let His Majesty worry about it? ”

Feng Zhengdao glanced at his most lively son, and said, "Your Majesty is thinking about your grandfather and the uncle who died in battle...... The girl can enter the palace to study, that is, she is stained with your uncle's light, which is nothing. ”

But the light is also bright, and the searchlight is not good at all!

Feng Zhirong pressed the complaint in her heart, and asked again: "Dad knows that the reward of the queen mother came to the palace before noon?" ”

"Your mother did tell me that there are expensive gifts in the palace...... Feng Zhengdao frowned, and said, "I can't figure out how to give Tianxiang satin and Feixian silk?" ”
