An Yueli took the long arrow, but did not try it in a panic, but took the long arrow in her hand and weighed it repeatedly for a while.

Seeing this, the county lord of Chunxiao smiled and persuaded: "Why don't you drink the bar directly, I have all the good wine made from apricots this spring, and it won't be intoxicating." ”

An Yueli was also polite, "The county lord still allows me to try." ”

After speaking, she turned around and aimed at the copper kettle two feet away, and threw it gently.

Long arrows flew out of her palms, swift as eagles with wings outstretched. I could only hear the crunch of a bell, and the sound of metal clashing came to my ears.

"Hit!"

"I actually hit!"

"It's incredible."

The ladies who were watching the excitement let out a surprised exclamation, and the county lord of Chunxiao also widened his eyes.

"Your hands are too accurate, did you practice a lot before?"

An Yueli smiled without saying a word, and went straight to the second arrow.

On the contrary, it was the county lord of Chunxiao who came back to his senses, and An Yueli had been harassed and harshly criticized by his stepmother Yue for three years. Even if you go to a party, you will be framed by An Yurou, and she is full of ugliness.

It's good that she can save her face, where is there still a chance to practice pitching with her mind.

The county lord of Chunxiao apologized and stuck out his tongue at An Yueli. The latter didn't go to his heart at all, and shot the second one in front of everyone.

"Hit the two."

An Yueli smiled and winked at the other party.

When the maid offered the third arrow, everyone looked at her expectantly. However, An Yueli took the initiative to hand the arrow to the county lord of Chunxiao.

"Does the county lord want to try it?"

"Me?" Lord Chunxiao pointed at himself, and then shook his head, "I can't do it." ”

As soon as the words fell, An Yueli had already walked around behind the other party and held the long arrow with her.

"Like this." She leaned over slightly, teaching the county lord of Chunxiao to learn the trick of aiming on the spot, "Look at the copper kettle with both eyes, and put the long arrow in the center of the line of sight." After alignment, throw decisively, and do not shake your wrist when you exert force, let alone deviate from the direction. ”

As she spoke, the arrow flew out of the palms of the two of them, and fell into the pot in a graceful arc.

"Entered!"

The county lord of Chunxiao exclaimed in surprise and jumped up happily at the same time.

An Yueli smiled with crooked eyebrows, "Congratulations, sure enough, the county lord is the most powerful." ”

Seeing this, the other nobles also hurriedly seized the opportunity to slap the horse and praised it.

"The county lord is talented, but he didn't find the right way before."

"Yes, it's just a pitcher, how can it be difficult to live with our ice and snow smart county lord."

"The county lord is really powerful!"

“……”

Hearing these compliments, although the county lord of Chunxiao wanted to restrain himself, he still couldn't suppress the brightness on his face. In front of everyone, she happily handed the hairpin to An Yueli.

"Oh, I'll send you."

An Yueli politely refused, "The last arrow was thrown by us together, and I can't be counted as winning." Although the county lord of Chunxiao didn't mind, she didn't dare to really accept the queen's gift.

Who knew that the county lord of Chunxiao pursed his lips and forcibly inserted the hairpin into her bun.

"If you don't vote, I'll give you everything. If you don't take it, I'll be angry. ”

Seeing that the other party pretended to be annoyed and stared at her, An Yueli could only agree.

"I'm afraid of you."

The two laughed for a while, only to feel a little hot from the sun.

Lord Chunxiao wiped the thin sweat on his forehead and ordered: "If you are tired of playing, go to the flower hall to rest." ”

Everyone moved indoors, drinking tea or chatting, but most people's eyes were quietly focused on the county lord of Chunxiao and An Yueli.

"Didn't the county lord hate An Yueli before? Why are the two of them getting better again now? ”

"It should be because we participated in the selection of Mengdanlou together before, right? An Yueli also won the first prize. ”

"Pay attention to what you say, she is now Princess Xiao, don't scream by name, beware of being heard."

Several noble ladies were gathering together to whisper, but they heard a cold snort.

"What's the big deal, marrying the Xiaowang Mansion, it's just a change of place to look up to people."

The person who spoke was the woman who had prevented the county lord of Chunxiao from sending hairpins to An Yueli in the garden before, Su Man.

Suddenly hearing her say this, several noble ladies were so frightened that their faces changed, and one of them waved his hand at the other party again and again.

"Miss Su, you can be quiet."

Su Man not only did not relent, but taunted even more.

"It meant to be. She herself has no talent and no virtue, and no one is allowed to say it? In the past, when Fu Xiao was lowly slapping my cousin, you didn't see her foxy face.

Now that she is entangled with the county lord through the relationship of Prince Xiao, she has become a chaste martyr again. ”

Xu is voice was a little loud, and the county lord of Chunxiao, who was sitting on the main seat, looked over.

"Su Man, what are you talking about?"

The other ladies were silent, but Su Manying smiled and walked out generously.

"Lord Qiyu, we are talking about the congratulatory gift we want to present to you today."

"Oh?"

Su Man whispered a few words to the maid, and soon someone pushed a half-person-high cage to the flower hall. The cage is covered with a black cloth, so you can't peek directly into the scene.

The county lord of Chunxiao was aroused, "What is this?" ”

Su Man straightened his chest and said confidently: "If you go back to the county lord, this is the golden bird that the courtiers specially bought from the merchants of the Western Regions. ”

"Golden Bird?"

"Exactly. It is said that the golden bird is the sacred bird of the Western Regions, with a pure gold color and represents the sun. ”

Su Man explained, while pulling the black cloth down, and then the crisp birdsong sounded in the flower hall. I saw a palm-sized bird standing on a branch in a cage, flapping its wings and making a call.

"Look, it's really a golden bird!"

"It's so beautiful, I've never seen such a gorgeous bird."

The ladies stretched their necks, all attracted by such a strange and beautiful animal. Even the well-informed Lord Chunxiao couldn't help but stand up and walked quickly to the birdcage to stand still.

"This bird is really beautiful."

The palm-sized bird has a very lively personality, and in the cage it either flutters its wings constantly, or jumps up and down and flies around.

The golden feathers shone in the sunlight, and it really looked like a small sun.

The county lord of Chunxiao was very happy, and immediately praised Su Man and said: "You have a heart, this ceremony is very popular with the county lord." ”

Su Man hooked his lips proudly, and deliberately raised his eyebrows when he glanced at An Yueli, secretly provocative.

An Yueli received such a message for the second time, and was sure that she was not mistaken. After the county lord returned to his seat, he quietly approached and asked.

"What is the identity of this Miss Su? I look familiar, but I can't remember it. ”

Hearing her ask, the county lord of Chunxiao looked a little strange.

"You don't remember?" The county lord of Chunxiao glanced at Su Man lightly, "She's Yin Huaizhi's cousin." In the past, there were rumors in the circle that you had a bad idea of Yin Huaizhi, and she even mocked you to your face. ”
