Chapter 1202: Discussion
This Zhao Lanshu is a little weird.
Some time ago, Lu Xingwan seemed to have discovered a shocking secret. There seemed to be some affection hidden in Zhao Lanshu's eyes when he looked at his senior brother.
Be it shyness or concern, this look really cannot be hidden.
How could these mortals, one or two at a time, have any interest in immortal cultivators?
But come to think of it, since the eldest senior brother is so talented and handsome, it is quite normal for others to have feelings for him.
Lu Xingwan looked around and it seemed that except for Lu Xingyan and Zhao Lanshu, everyone else was also gathered there enthusiastically.
Lu Xingyan turned around and glanced in the direction of Lu Xingwan without looking at her again.
She hated Lu Xingwan very much and naturally didn't want to see her even once.
It's great that she didn't say anything bad to her.
Zhao Lanshu was different. When he saw that it was Princess Yong'an who came, he did not dare to delay and hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down to salute in the direction of the princess.
"Greetings to Princess Yong'an."
Lu Xingwan didn't care, she just nodded lightly and motioned her to get up.
It’s better for her to keep a distance from the people around Lu Xingyan.
Her eyes turned to her senior brother and Pei Chuyan in the training ground.
The two of them should be competing in a horse riding competition.
At this time, the atmosphere in the martial arts training ground was as hot as fire.
Previously, when Pei Chuyan and the senior brother were teaching everyone, they were both wearing casual clothes, but today, they all changed into riding clothes.
I have to say that the eldest senior brother is extremely good-looking, and now that he and Pei Chuyan are standing together, they complement each other.
If you think about it, they are a perfect match.
As soon as this word appeared in Lu Xingwan's mind, she slapped her head.
Oh my god, what am I thinking!
That’s the senior brother, Pei Chuyan!
Of course no one noticed her thoughts.
At this time, Xie Mingxue had also walked forward, leaving Princess Yong'an aside.
Lu Xingwan looked at the longbows in their hands. The bowstrings were taut and seemed to be flashing with a cold light. For some reason, her heart began to jump.
She also wanted to join in.
As the flag was waved, the race began, and the horses of the two men galloped away like arrows.
Lu Xingwan's gaze instead fell on the man waving the flag.
The man's name was Congjin and he was not very old.
Congjin is a third-rank imperial guard. In the past, he always rode beside my father. I guess he came to the parade ground today because my father agreed.
He looks quite dignified.
Lu Xingwan's thoughts were quickly interrupted.
Following the crowd's exclamation, Lu Xingwan quickly turned around to look.
I saw the eldest brother draw an arrow from the quiver, nock the arrow and draw the bow in one go, and with a "whoosh" sound, the arrow flew out.
Senior brother’s archery skills are indeed amazing.
In fact, those who practice Taoism rarely use archery. Most of the time, they only use spiritual power.
But they will not lack learning in this area.
Pei Chuyan was not at all panicked. He also moved his body, turned sideways like a cunning rabbit, and used the force to draw the bow. Naturally, the sharp arrow broke through the wind and hit the bull's eye.
"pretty!"
"Great archery!"
For a while, there were only praises for the two of them.
Gradually, more and more people gathered on the training ground.
Many of them had seen Princess Yong'an's archery skills before, and they even guessed that Princess Yong'an's archery skills should be better than Duke Anguo's. Now that they heard that this man was Princess Yong'an's senior brother, they were even more excited.
Naturally, everyone's attention was drawn to the competition on the field, but Lu Xingwan's gaze fell on Lu Xingyan and Zhao Lanshu standing beside the field.
Lu Xingyan was also wearing a riding suit today, which matched Pei Chuyan's clothes quite well. In order to get close to Pei Chuyan, she put some thought into it.
At this moment her eyes were fixed on Pei Chuyan. Lu Xingwan could see the joy in her eyes, as if the next moment, her heart full of love was about to overflow.
Zhao Lanshu standing aside showed it even more obviously.
Her face was as beautiful as a delicate flower, and her cheeks were rosy.
Normally, Zhao Lanshu is a shrewd and worldly-wise person, but at this moment, her eyes are filled with pure admiration for her senior brother.
Lu Xingwan was somewhat puzzled when she saw Zhao Lanshu like this.
In her understanding, Zhao Lanshu is a person who can maneuver between various forces without any loopholes.
Not to mention that she would never lose her composure like this in the past, her feelings towards her senior brother now are just not right.
Lu Xingwan originally thought that someone like Zhao Lanshu might choose someone of equal status to be with him.
However, although the eldest senior brother has a good appearance and great martial arts skills, he has no foundation in the capital.
It was surprising that Zhao Lanshu could give his passionate feelings to such a senior brother without reservation.
Feelings are sometimes very difficult to explain.
When Lu Xingwan was secretly sighing, his eyes unconsciously fell on Xie Mingxue who was standing beside him.
Xie Mingxue was born delicate, and the clothes she wore today made her look like a lotus emerging from water, or a willow in the spring breeze.
Now she was lowering her head, and her dark hair half covered her shy face.
She is now standing in front of Congjin.
She was looking up at the cluster of flowers in front of her, and she looked shy and timid. Anyone who saw her could not help but feel sympathy for her.
Congjin is indeed a man of imposing bearing.
At this time, he was looking at Xie Mingxue in front of him with his head lowered, and there was pity and admiration in his eyes.
The two of them had no time to watch the horse riding and archery competition on the field.
Congjin seemed to say something, which made Xie Mingxue's cheeks turn even redder.
Lu Xingwan only then realized that after Xie Mingxue entered the palace, she seemed to have always been very cautious and protected herself, and she rarely participated in such occasions.
Today, she was acting out of character and came to the training ground.
She was confused just now, but now she understood. It seemed that Xie Mingxue had other intentions.
To be honest, Congjin's official rank is not low, and he is also well-dressed. It would be great if he could be with Xie Mingxue.
Lu Xingwan also knew that in the capital, it was extremely difficult for a concubine's daughter like Xie Mingxue to marry someone like Congjin.
But with the identity of being the princess's companion, perhaps things will be different.
At this time, although Pei Chuyan and Lu Jingming had experienced a fierce battle on the training ground, the situation was in a stalemate. It can be said that the riding skills of the two were evenly matched.
The two of them just wanted to have a competition and did not want to compete with each other, so when they heard the referee say this, they smiled at each other and then rolled off their horses at the same time with neat movements.
They walked steadily to each other and bowed respectfully: "Thank you."
The powerful voices of the two men echoed for a long time in the training ground.
