Chapter 15: The Provocation of the Nine Emperor Princes

Just as the Nine Emperor Princes and the Seventh Emperor were arguing, a burly man with a rough appearance walked over. Seeing him, the Nine Emperor Princes immediately shut up and didn't dare to quarrel anymore.

The man's name was Qin Su, and he was a general of Wuwei. In the early years, he followed Emperor Wu of Zhou to fight everywhere and made a lot of military achievements. Later, because of an injury to his left foot, he became a cripple and could no longer go to the battlefield, so he was sent by Emperor Wu of Zhou to teach the princes archery.

Qin Su's archery skills were the most exquisite among the soldiers. Although he is a cripple, the princes dare not underestimate or despise him.

The three princes took the lead in saluting Qin Su, after all, Qin Su was their husband.

Qin Su nodded lightly, then looked at the Seventh Emperor and the Ninth Emperor, and said expressionlessly: "The spirit of the Seventh Highness and the Ninth Highness looks very good, and today the Seventh Highness and the Ninth Highness will shoot arrows first." ”

The Seventh Prince felt that he was connotated by Qin Su, and his face was a little ugly, but he didn't dare to put on a posture in front of Qin Su, so he could only be obedient.

"Yes, sir."

The Nine Emperor Princes wished that the two of them would start first. He suddenly thought of an idea and laughed maliciously: "Sir, I have a proposal. ”

As soon as the Seventh Emperor heard what the Nine Emperors said, he knew what the Nine Emperors wanted to do, and his brows immediately furrowed.

Qin Su said: "What proposal?" ”

The Nine Emperor Princes said with a smile: "I want to compete with the Seventh Brother, and whoever loses will be punished." ”

And so it was.

The Seventh Prince said with an ugly face: "I don't agree. ”

"Seventh brother, are you scared, don't dare to compare with me?" The Nine Emperor Princes clasped their hands to their chests, and there was undisguised contempt on their faces, "I didn't expect you to be so cowardly, Seventh Brother." ”

The Seventh Prince ignored the provocation of the Nine Emperors, reached out and took the bow and arrow handed over by the eunuch, stood in front of the target, and began to practice.

Qin Su glanced at the Nine Emperor Princes: "Your Highness the Nine, it's time for you to practice." ”

The little abacus in the heart of the Nine Emperor Princes did not succeed, and he pursed his lips very unhappily, and continued to laugh at the Seventh Emperor in his mouth: "Seventh Brother, as the son of the Queen, you are so cowardly. ”

The Seven Princes were very angry, but they would never be stimulated to be fooled and compete with the Nine Princes in archery. He knew in his heart that if he tried archery with the Nine Emperor Princes, he would only bring humiliation on himself.

Seeing that the Seventh Prince ignored him, the Ninth Prince didn't say anything more, took the bow, and began to practice.

The Seven Princes shot three arrows, one missed the target, and two hit the edge of the target. And the Nine Emperor Princes, who were standing beside him, hit the bullseye with one arrow and the eight rings with two arrows.

The Nine Emperor Princes glanced at the Seventh Prince, and said with a mocking face: "It's really useless. ”

"Your Highness the Seven." Qin Su had a straight face, his expression was very serious, "It's too bad." ”

The Seventh Prince was said in public, and his face turned red with shame, "I ......"

"Seventh brother, just like you, how can you be embarrassed to be the son of your father."

Qin Su said sternly to the Seventh Prince: "Your Highness the Seventh, diligence can make up for your clumsiness. ”

"Hahaha......" The Nine Emperor Princes laughed heartily, and his laughter was full of mockery.

The Seventh Prince was angry in his heart, feeling that Qin Su was deliberately embarrassing him, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he could only grit his teeth and say, "I know." ”

"Third Highness, Fourth Highness, Fifth Highness, Sixth Highness, Eighth Highness, Tenth Highness, it's your turn."

"Yes, sir."

Zhao Yao and the Eighth Prince stood together. He asked the eighth prince uneasily: "Starling, are you really okay?" ”

The Eighth Prince smiled at Zhao Yao soothingly: "I can." With that, he drew his bow and shot arrows. With a thud, the arrow hit the bullseye with precision. "Can you rest assured now?"

Zhao Yao gave a thumbs up to the Eighth Prince: "Amazing." With that, he also shot an arrow, which also hit the bull's-eye.

In reading, Zhao Yao was very stupid, but in riding and shooting, he didn't pretend to be stupid. As a prince, you can't be stupid in every way, such a prince will be looked down upon. Emperor Wu of Zhou attached great importance to the riding and archery skills of the princes, and Zhao Yao decided to perform slightly better in riding and archery.

His riding and archery skills are not the best among the princes. If it's the best one, it's too showy, it's too eye-catching, it's not what he wants. It's not the best, but it's still in the top three.

Zhao Yao's riding and archery skills are worse than those of the Nine Emperors and the Eighth Emperor, but they are better than other princes.

Qin Su corrected the posture of the princes one by one. The prince who was corrected by him shot an arrow that hit the bull's-eye.

Under Qin Su's guidance, the Seventh Prince was able to shoot the bull's-eye, but when it was his turn, he could barely miss the target.

The Nine Emperors deliberately humiliated the Seven Princes and shot his arrows into the bullseye of the Seven Princes, and the angry Seven Princes were eager to shoot him with arrows.

Just when Zhao Yao and the others were seriously practicing archery, the prince suddenly appeared in the martial arts arena. He's here to care for his brothers.

Qin Su had a straight face towards the other princes and had no expression, but he was kind to the crown prince, which was the most unacceptable place for the seven princes.

The prince first inquired about the situation of Xia Qinsu with concern. Qin Su's lame feet hurt when it came to rainy weather.

Qin Su was flattered by the prince's concern, and hurriedly said that he was fine.

The prince then asked his younger brothers about their riding and archery lessons. Qin Su replied truthfully.

Knowing that the Seven Princes' riding and archery skills were not good, the prince first comforted the Seven Princes, and then taught the Seven Princes to shoot arrows.

The prince looks weak and weak, and he looks like he will fall down when the wind blows, and it is easy to be misunderstood that he is powerless and cannot be good at riding and shooting. On the contrary, his riding and archery skills are not bad, of course, not as good as the acting king.

Among the princes, only the crown prince and the acting king were personally taught by Emperor Wu of Zhou to ride and shoot.

When the crown prince was a child, Emperor Wu of Zhou had not yet ascended the throne. As soon as Emperor Wu of Zhou was free, he would personally teach the crown prince. It can be said that the prince's riding and archery kung fu was taught by Emperor Wu of Zhou.

The Seventh Prince didn't want to be taught by the crown prince, but he had to accept it.

"Brother Prince, Seventh Brother doesn't dare to compete with me, why don't you compete with me instead of Seventh Brother?" The Nine Emperors felt that their riding and archery skills were better than those of the prince, and wanted to take the opportunity to embarrass the prince. "By the way, let's be a younger brother, and learn about the archery skills of the prince's elder brother."

The crown prince didn't like the acting king, and he didn't like the Nine Emperors very much, because the two brothers were too arrogant.

"Ninth brother, do you want to test archery with Lone?"

"Yes, I don't know if the prince's brother dares or not."

Qin Su was very dissatisfied with the attitude and tone of the Nine Emperor Princes towards the crown prince, and said in a deep voice: "Nine Emperor Princes, pay attention to your tone and attitude. ”

The prince waved his hand and smiled gently: "It's okay. He looked at the Nine Emperor Princes, "Ninth Brother, if you lose, you can't cry." ”

The Nine Emperor Princes raised their chins and said arrogantly: "I won't cry, and I won't lose." "The reason why the Nine Emperors are so confident is because his riding and archery was taught by the acting king.

"Then Lone will play with you."

Qin Su respectfully handed the bow and arrow to the crown prince, "His Royal Highness the prince, please use it." ”

The prince smiled slightly, and then directly took out three arrows and put them on the string. In an instant, three arrows pierced the air and hit the bull's-eye sharply.

When the Nine Emperor Princes saw this scene, their eyes widened in shock, their mouths opened wide, with a ghostly expression, and they said in disbelief: "How is it possible? ”

Zhao Yao was not surprised by this scene at all. The prince's elder brother was the first son of his father, and when he was a child, his father must have taught him many things, which certainly included mounted archery.

Brother Jiu thought that the prince's brother was not good at riding and archery, and wanted to humiliate the prince's brother through archery, which was really naΓ―ve.

The prince smiled: "I haven't shot an arrow for a long time, and I'm a little rusty." ”

Qin Su said: "Your Highness is too humble. As he spoke, he raised the corners of his mouth and chuckled, "Your Highness, your archery skills were taught by the emperor himself. ”

When the prince heard Qin Su say this, he suddenly remembered what happened when he was a child, and a nostalgic smile appeared on his face: "Yes, when Gu was four years old, my father began to teach Gu to shoot arrows. ”

When he was a child, his father still liked him, personally taught him to read, taught him archery, and taught him to ride a horse. Later, his father became busier and busier, and he never taught him again.

Although the acting king was also taught by his father when he was a child, compared to him, his father did not teach the acting king many times.

When he was a child, the acting king was inferior to him, but now the acting king ...... When the prince thought of this, his face turned cold.
