A group of people came to the training ground, where special archery targets had been prepared.
Mu Qingchen asked someone to bring a chair and let Mu Nanyan sit down to watch their game.
"Yan'er, just watch how your brother defeats him." The young man said proudly, confidently and calmly.
Mu Nanyan looked at him seriously and nodded continuously.
Sixth brother, seeing how confident you are, I am no longer worried that you will not be able to withstand the blows from others and do something you will regret.
Mu Qingchen walked towards the competition field with firm steps.
The sun shone on him, making his figure look extremely tall.
"Mu Qingchen, tell me first, what will you do if you lose the game?" Zhou Yi challenged fearlessly.
He deliberately spoke very loudly so that everyone present could hear and testify for him.
By then, Mu Qingchen would have lost in public and would not be able to regret it.
Mu Qingchen glanced at him, ignoring his provocation. "I advise you to think it over carefully. It's not too late to regret it now."
He was afraid that Zhou Yi would lose too badly, and would be too embarrassed to commit suicide. After all, that person loved face the most.
It would be fine if he committed suicide, but if they still put the blame on him, then he must be innocent.
"Stop talking nonsense. If you lose, you kneel down in front of me. If I lose, you can do whatever you want to me." Zhou Yi said gritting his teeth.
Everyone present turned their eyes to them. Zhou Yi felt very uncomfortable being stared at by them and wanted to prove something to them quickly.
Since the other party said so, Mu Qingchen stopped trying to persuade him.
"good."
With the command, the game began.
The competition is divided into three rounds, and whoever shoots the arrow closest to the center of the target has the best score.
Let’s start with Zhou Yi. He took an arrow from the quiver, looked straight ahead, held the bow in his left hand and stretched out his hand, put his right hand on the bowstring and pulled it steadily.
With a whoosh sound, the arrow flew towards the bull's eye.
He stared at the target closely, and just when he thought he was about to hit it, his arrow deviated slightly.
He had shot the arrow poorly, and his heart sank when he saw this.
Next, it was Mu Qingchen's turn to come on stage.
He randomly took out an arrow from the quiver, took aim, and slowly drew the bowstring.
Everyone looked at this scene nervously, only to see the arrow fly out and hit the center of the target directly.
Zhou Yi rubbed his eyes in disbelief and stared at the arrow. "Come again."
He took a deep breath, gathered his strength, adjusted his archery posture, used his strength more gently, and controlled the arrow calmly. He shot the arrow again, and the arrow flew out at an angle and actually fell down halfway.
He watched it fall, his eyes red with anxiety. The result this time was worse than the last time.
How could this happen? It must be because he was too nervous. It’s okay, there is one last chance, he can definitely do it.
Under the gaze of everyone, Mu Qingchen shot the second arrow. He nocked the arrow, pulled the string, and drew the bow. His movements were as smooth as flowing water. With a "whoosh", the arrow flew out like a meteor.
There is no doubt that this time he hit the bull's eye, just like before.
"Zhou Yi, this is your last arrow, you must seize it well." Someone deliberately mocked Zhou Yi when he saw that he hadn't started to act yet.
Zhou Yi glared at the man fiercely, then retracted his gaze and concentrated on his hands.
Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he glanced at the crowd unintentionally.
Haha, since you are so strong, let’s see which is faster, your arrow or my arrow.
Mu Nanyan was thinking about something when she suddenly felt that someone was staring at her.
When she looked over, the man shifted his gaze again.
Strange, who is targeting her?
Zhou Yi stood up straight. The tip of the arrow in his hand was shining coldly, which made people feel a little chilly for some reason.
He pulled the bowstring with all his strength, and his fingertips turned white. He suddenly changed direction and pulled hard. There was a "bang" and the arrow flew towards the crowd.
"Be careful." Mu Nanyan only felt herself being pushed and her body fell to the side.
Accompanied by a "pop" sound, it was the sound of the arrow shooting into the flesh.
Before she could react, a stream of hot blood spurted onto her face.
She stared with wide eyes as the woman spit out a mouthful of blood and fell weakly in front of her.
"Royal brother, call the doctor here immediately." Mu Nanyan calmed herself down and secretly stuffed a pill into Zhou Yun's mouth while no one was paying attention.
Just now, when Zhou Yi shot the last arrow, he felt unwilling to accept the consequences of failure.
He glanced at Mu Nanyan in the crowd. He knew how important Mu Nanyan, this sister, was to Mu Qingchen.
So, when he pulled the bow, he deliberately changed direction, hoping to take the opportunity to shoot Mu Nanyue.
One has to say how stupid he is. Not to mention that his archery skills are not yet at the level of being able to hit the target every time. Even if he hit the target and hurt Mu Nanyan, Mu Qingchen and others would definitely not let him go.
But he didn't think too much at that time, he just wanted to make Mu Qingchen suffer.
He had planned everything, but he hadn't expected that his half-sister Zhou Yun would be right next to Mu Nanyan.
When he shot an arrow at Mu Nanyan, Mu Qingchen noticed it immediately. He immediately shot another arrow in an attempt to knock down Zhou Yi's arrow.
But it was still a step too late. At that moment, his heart was in his throat.
After Zhou Yun pushed Mu Nanyan away and Mu Nanyan was safe, Mu Qingchen caught Zhou Yi, the culprit.
At that time, Zhou Yun saw her brother's intention and was shocked. Without thinking too much, she pushed Mu Nanyan away.
Before she fell, she had only one thought, that is, at least the Zhou family was saved.
If Zhou's father knew that Zhou Yi had offended Emperor Hui and took his anger out on the Zhou family, then her entire family would be implicated by Zhou Yi.
Mu Nanyan was a little shocked. She didn't expect that she was not familiar with Zhou Yun, but was protected by her.
Although with her abilities, her protection is not needed.
Could it be that the girl loved the emperor so much that she couldn't bear to see herself get hurt? Otherwise, she couldn't think of any other reason.
While she was daydreaming, Mu Qingchen ran towards her anxiously. "Yan'er, are you okay?"
Mu Nanyan pointed at Zhou Yun next to her and said, "Brother, I'm fine. She saved me."
Zhou Yun vomited blood and fainted because of his serious injuries.
While feeding her medicine, Mu Nanyan checked her injuries and found that her life was not in danger.
Mu Qingchen set his sights on the person who saved his sister. He heard that she pushed Yan'er away without regard for her own safety.
Humph, she's sensible. Zhou Yi was being stupid, but his sister was much smarter than him, at least she knew not to offend him.
Mu Nanyan saw Mu Qingchen staring at the girl and thought he was interested in her.
[Royal brother, why do you keep staring at the girl? Even though she is beautiful, she is injured now, so you can’t stare at her like that.]
Why hasn't the doctor come yet? Although she is not seriously injured, she still needs the doctor to prescribe some medicine to treat her external injuries.
