"Don't stop, it's so exciting, shoot a few more arrows!"
"Your archery is excellent. If anyone can hit the target with more arrows, the king will reward him handsomely." Not only the boys and girls started to make noises, but even the king's loyal servants could not help but speak passionately.
He didn't know his son was among them.
Like most people, he just thought they were from a troupe. As for Jiang Yuanlang, although he was surprised, it was not surprising that the son of a military commander in the Duke's Mansion had such a level.
King Qin tilted his head and greeted Jiang Shang with a smile, "Not bad, your son is also willing to take over the family business and have successors."
He thought he was being polite and avoided mentioning it to Jiang Yuanyi and Jiang Yuanchen.
But how could Jiang Shang not understand?
Looking at the four men on the stage drawing their bows and preparing to shoot the second arrow, Jiang Shang remained calm, because he knew that his sons were all fine, otherwise, someone like King Qin who felt sorry for him would be shocked.
The next moment, Jiang Shang's gaze fell on Jiang Ying, who was not far from the stage.
Her eyes were so gentle that they seemed to drip tears.
Fang was so ruthless to Sister Lin, he actually felt a little guilty, but now he felt relieved for some reason.
It should be like this. Sister Lin is at best just a comfort to their relationship, but Sister Ying is different. She is the hero and lucky star of the Jiang family.
A distinction is necessary.
"Yuan Lang, His Royal Highness has spoken, so you guys should perform well. In addition to the rewards promised by the prince, I also have a reward, which is the sword given to me by the late emperor, called 'Dawn Breaking'. I will give it to the one among you who is the best archer."
Among the four, one is his own son.
Jiang Shang had made up his mind to keep the wealth within his own family, and he didn't even care who the remaining one was, because he had confidence in his son.
Especially Jiang Yuanyi, that was his most proud general.
When they heard that Jiang Shang had staked all the swords bestowed by the emperor as prizes, the audience was buzzing with discussions. Several young men from wealthy families felt their ears buzzing, and they only regretted that they had not anticipated this and followed him up to compete for it.
King Qin smiled and said, "Duke Jiang, although your son is in it, his chance of winning is only 25%. Are you considering doing this?"
The imperial sword is hard to come by, and the Dawn Sword is even harder to come by. It is said that a swordsmith sacrificed his life for the sword, and it is a rare spiritual sword that can only be found in a few years.
Jiang Shang had been invincible in all the battles over the years, and at dawn he was about to win the victory.
If such a precious sword falls into the hands of mediocre people, wouldn't it be a waste?
Jiang Shang's expression was calm and unperturbed, "Don't worry, my lord. This precious sword is given to a hero, and I deserve it."
Seeing that he was determined, King Qin said nothing more.
At this time, Jiang Shang looked around and was a little surprised. "Qin Wang, is it official business for the Yan Jun Wang?"
He was a little unhappy. After all, he was an engaged person. Although Sister Ying tried every means to delay the wedding, it was a bit inappropriate for him not to show up to support Sister Ying on such an important occasion of recognizing one's ancestry.
Prince Qin knew that his son had disappeared, and he touched his nose in embarrassment, "It must be something important. After all, you know that he is trusted by the emperor. There are many things that I, his own father, don't know. I am really ashamed. However, I did not see him asking his subordinates to send gifts to my daughter-in-law."
Jiang Shang rolled his eyes when he heard this.
We haven't even gotten married yet, so why are you calling her daughter-in-law? It's so easy to do!
Whoosh whoosh——
Whoosh whoosh——
…
There were the sounds of arrows breaking through the air one after another. Needless to say, the competition on the stage began to become more serious.
At the beginning, it was just a performance to liven up the atmosphere, but since there is a prize to support it, we must take it seriously!
In fact, Jiang Yuanyi, Jiang Yuanchen, and Jiang Yuanlang had all secretly coveted the dawn.
But Jiang Shang doted on her very much, staying close to her almost every day, and even sleeping in her arms at night, so it was really rare for us to have that chance.
While the arrow is flying, we have a brief meeting and exchange a few words.
Jiang Yuanyi, "The sword is mine, don't even think about snatching it from me!"
"Brother, don't you already have a sword that suits you? Give it to me, so that I won't be laughed at by others for being incompetent in studying." Jiang Yuanchen whispered.
Jiang Yuanlang clasped his hands and clasped his fists, "Whoever the sword falls on will be determined by strength."
They seemed to have forgotten what he had said, or perhaps they thought that he was too disdainful to compete with them for Jiang's things.
However, when the statistical results from the target came out, I suddenly felt a sense of crisis.
Qi Ren: "Two arrows hit the bull's eye at one target, two arrows hit the bull's eye at two targets, two arrows hit the bull's eye at the first target, and four targets - two arrows hit the bull's eye at the fourth target. Four targets win!"
A ginger, "..."
Despicable, he actually sneaked out while they were fighting!
Jiang Yuanyi held up the lion head and took two steps closer to Yan Zhuo, "Your Highness, your hand is injured, how can you shoot?"
Jiang Yuanchen was very hot and took a deep breath. "Dawn is a family heirloom of the Jiang family."
Heirlooms are heirlooms that are only passed down to one's family. He shouldn't be so embarrassed as to snatch them away, right?
Jiang Yuanlang, "Sister Ying would be very unhappy if she knew that you bullied us."
As he finished speaking, he noticed his two brothers flashing their lion heads at him.
Obviously surprised that he could speak so well!
Awesome.
The fact that Yan Zhuo condescended to be an actor and played the clown to congratulate his sister like them was enough to show how much Yan Zhuo valued Ying Jie'er. So, making a complaint would definitely achieve the effect of intimidation.
Yan Zhuo raised his hand, but his expression could not be seen. "You are all blind, stupid, and a beast. It's okay. What's so strange about my hand recovering a little bit of its power?"
The other thing is that he pulls the bow with his left hand and holds the arrow with his right hand, and he does it the other way around.
Because his right hand hasn't recovered yet.
But as he said, for a performance like this, he has enough ability to succeed.
A ginger, "..."
The first two were beyond refutation, but Jiang Yuanlang was not convinced, because he was sure that Yan Zhuo definitely didn't know that he had a heart disease, but he actually scolded him for being a beast. How could a man not be so intolerant!
"Who is the lion? I'm going to tell Sister Ying about how you sneaked in among us!"
Yan Zhuo, "..."
"Don't..." He said in a low voice, pulling her back helplessly, "Okay, I won't fight with you."
"Is it a deal?"
"I never break my promises."
After getting Yan Zhuo's affirmative answer, Jiang Mingxian breathed a sigh of relief.
It doesn't matter if they lose the competition, but if the dawn falls into the hands of outsiders, will the Jiang family still have face?
After seeing the battle situation clearly, Qin Wang suddenly stood up and stared at the two arrows stacked on the four targets. One of the arrows was shot in the middle by the other and split into two halves.
This is what is called overlapping shots, which is impossible to do without a certain level of skill!
He was shocked, "Brother Jiang, are you really not nervous at all?"
The first round ended in a tie, but in the second round, one team started to take the lead...
King Qin was worried that Jiang Shang would not be able to protect the dawn.
Jiang Shang looked calm, "There is still the first round, the final round. A small lead is nothing. Whether we win or not depends on our performance in the first round."
King Qin waved his hands and said, "Stop it, it's not my sword. No matter who wins, I will only take a small amount of money. I am not like Brother Jiang who is risking his heirloom."
He really didn't understand. It was just a small entertainment. Why did Jiang Shang gamble so much?
Is it because his son is among them?
Jiang Shang: No, I have a son, and his winning rate is as low as 50%!
"Wait!" Just as Jiang Yuanyi and others drew their bows and prepared for the final round of competition, Yue Weimo suddenly rushed to the front with a tray and stomped his feet.
