With a "whoosh", the arrow brushed past Chen Jingxi's ear, bringing with it a sharp sound of wind, and finally landed steadily on the ground not far behind her.

This scene made everyone present hold their breath.

How could it be! Jiang Xiwan was stunned for a moment, looking in the direction where the arrow had landed. But then she breathed a sigh of relief and stared blankly at Chen Jingxi smiling at her.

The people around also breathed a sigh of relief, whispering and talking to each other.

The Queen was about to speak, but Chen Jingxi beat her to the punch, "Miss Jiang's archery skills don't seem to be that great."

These words made Jiang Xiwan's face turn red instantly, "I..."

Before she could react, Chen Jingxi had already walked in front of her. She reached out and took the arrow from Jiang Xiwan's hand with smooth movements.

At the same time, she stuffed the fireworks in her hand into Jiang Xiwan's hand with a meaningful smile on her face.

He turned around and walked to the opposite side of Jiang Xiwan, drew the bow in his hand, and aimed the arrow at Jiang Xiwan, "Miss Jiang, raise your hands."

"What's going on?" Everyone was dumbfounded.

Jiang Xiwan came back to her senses and looked at the fireworks in her hand. She felt an inexplicable panic in her heart. She shook her head, trying to refuse this sudden request: "No, no..."

The Queen cried out in dissatisfaction: "Princess Su..."

Chen Jingxi didn't even glance at her. She just said calmly, "Don't worry, Queen. You'll be able to see the fireworks soon."

Everyone looked at each other.

Jiang Xiwan looked at the fireworks in her hand, not knowing whether to throw them away or not. She asked directly, "Princess Su, can you shoot arrows?"

Chen Jingxi leisurely put down the bow and arrow in her hand, and said with a smile: "Miss Jiang, you don't have to worry about me shooting you. This princess's archery skills were taught by the prince. Although the prince didn't teach me this way, it's the same. As long as you hit the target, it's fine, right?"

"I...you..." Jiang Xiwan's eyes flashed with panic and anxiety. She tried to say something, but the words got stuck in her throat.

She looked at the people around her, but everyone just stood there quietly, and no one dared to step forward to interfere.

If we say it's dangerous now and come out to stop it, wouldn't that be slapping ourselves in the face?

Chen Jingxi raised his bow and arrow again, aiming at the fireworks in Jiang Xiwan's hand, and said with a smile: "Miss Jiang, don't move. If I accidentally miss and shoot your face, then...tsk tsk tsk..."

Jiang Xiwan's face turned pale in an instant. She was so scared that she dared not move. She just stared at the bow and arrow in Chen Jingxi's hand, fearing that it would suddenly shoot at her.

Chen Jingxi smiled with satisfaction, "That's right, raise your hands higher."

Jiang Xiwan did as she was told.

Chen Jingxi continued, "A little bit to the left."

Jiang Xiwan obediently moved a little to the left.

"A little to the right."

Jiang Xiwan: "..."

Chen Jingxi moved left and right, up and down, but she didn't ejaculate for a long time. Now, everyone understood that she was deliberately tormenting Jiang Xiwan.

Jiang Xiwan was so angry that she was shaking all over, "Princess Su, you..."

Chen Jingxi laughed even more happily. She blinked and said in surprise, "Hey, why is it crooked? Miss Jiang, don't shake your hands!"

Jiang Xiwan tried to remain calm and denied it, "I'm not shaking."

"You're shaking so violently. What if I hurt you?" Chen Jingxi said as he put away his bow and arrow and slowly walked towards Jiang Xiwan.

This made Jiang Xiwan feel inexplicably frightened. She asked nervously, "Princess Su, what do you want to do?"

Chen Jingxi smiled and said, "Let me help you adjust your position. I could easily miss the target if you do that."

Her fingers were cold, but her tone was so gentle that it made Jiang Xiwan shudder.

"Why are your hands so stiff? Relax and smile." As she said that, she pinched Jiang Xiwan's face.

Jiang Xiwan gave a smile that was uglier than crying.

The ladies around saw Chen Jingxi making things difficult for Jiang Xiwan and turned their heads away, unwilling to watch this embarrassing scene.

The queen stared at the scene coldly, her hands clenched tightly in her sleeves.

Chen Jingxi looked at the tears in Jiang Xiwan's eyes, and then she let go of her hand contentedly, "Okay, be happy, I'm going to cum this time, you better be obedient and don't move."

Then, she raised her bow and arrow and aimed at the bull's eye...

An arrow flew through the air and hit the fuse of the firework steadily. The firework instantly shot up into the sky, brilliant and colorful.

"Ah! No..." Jiang Xiwan suddenly screamed, threw the lit fireworks into the air, and then squatted on the ground with her head in her hands.

Looking at the arrow feathers swaying slightly in front of him, he suddenly cried out "wow".

Everyone looked in the direction of the arrow in surprise, only to see Chu Jingyue holding a longbow with a faint smile on his face.

"This prince is late. I just saw this interesting scene on the road and couldn't help but want to try it myself." Chu Jingyue walked towards Chen Jingxi and asked, "Will the Third Princess not blame me for stealing your limelight?"

"Ninth brother, you came at the right time. It's a blessing for your arrow, otherwise no one would be able to see such beautiful fireworks." Chen Jingxi said with a smile.

"I hope the Third Princess doesn't blame me."

Chen Jingxi turned to look at Jiang Xiwan and said with a smile, "Miss Jiang, why are you still crying? Isn't this what you wanted to play?"

Jiang Xiwan burst into tears and pointed at Chen Jingxi for a long time without saying a word, "You...you..."

Chen Jingxi looked at her with a smile, feeling that the depression she had felt today had finally been released, and she felt much better.

As expected, if you are crazy, the sky will not fall.

As a human being, there is no need to be too normal.

The queen also quickly came out to smooth things over and asked the palace maid to help Jiang Xiwan down.

——

After leaving the palace, Chunmei finally breathed a sigh of relief. The half day she spent in the palace was more tiring than a month's work.

"Princess, you really scared me to death just now."

Chen Jingxi smiled and said, "Didn't I reassure you?"

Chunmei shook her head and said with lingering fear, "How can I be at ease if Miss Jiang shoots her arrow like that? If Matron Gao and Matron Li were here, they would surely faint from fright."

"You're just a chatterbox. Don't tell them about these things later."

Chunmei nodded, but her curiosity made her unable to help but ask again: "Princess, how do you know Miss Jiang won't hit the target?"

Chen Jingxi said: "Because of Han Yu."

Chunmei looked at Hanyu who was sitting quietly beside her, and recalled that Princess Yuzhen had tried to poison the princess in the teahouse.

It was Han Yu who shot a dart in the dark and knocked away Princess Yuzhen's dagger. Thinking of this, Chunmei understood.

Prince Su's Mansion.

The house was completely quiet, with only the rustling of leaves in the breeze being heard.

Chu Jinghuai was sitting on the couch, holding a book in his hand. Hearing the movement outside the door, he gently put down the book in his hand, raised his head, and said softly, "I'm back."

Chen Jingxi responded, walked straight to him, picked up the tea beside him, and drank it without hesitation.

Chu Jinghuai looked at her like this, with a hint of pampering and helplessness in his eyes.
