Chapter 173 No one in this world can stand cold violence
There is not a single cloud in the boundless blue sky, and the warm sun's rays shine unreservedly on the earth.
Lu Jinye stood in front of the target with an apple on his head, looking at Qiao Wanyan who was drawing the bow and aiming at him in the distance.
Qiao Wanyan was in high spirits when she suddenly felt a cool breath coming from behind.
Before he could turn around, he saw the person behind him grabbing his bow and hands.
"Your Highness? Didn't you go to the horse farm? Why are you back again?"
The person behind her didn't say anything, but just aimed her shaking arrow tip at Lu Jinye in the distance.
Seeing this, Zi Yuan boldly said, "This servant pays respect to King Jing."
Qiao Wanyan's expression changed slightly, He Yanli?
He Yanli looked at Zi Yuan with a gloomy gaze, and immediately saw Zi Yuan slip and kneel on the ground, "This servant pays respects to the prince."
Despite the tremendous pressure, Zi Yuan had to bite the bullet and remind the young lady who was behind her.
"I, as a teacher, have not taught my students the art of archery, so I should make up for it now. Look ahead and aim at him."
This is him, not that. Qiao Wanyan didn't hear what word he said, but she heard a hint of murderous intent in his cold voice.
The arrow flew out from the bow, with a sound of breaking through the air, and flew towards Lu Jinye's shoulder at a rapid speed.
It wasn't fatal, but it was enough to get him into trouble.
He had heard Lu Jinye talk about the lives of two people being linked together, so He Yanli would naturally not take the risk.
But, he didn't like that vile thing.
Quite unpleasant.
The feather arrow made a trembling sound, and Lu Jinye held the arrow firmly between his index and middle fingers. But because it was shot out too fast, it trembled slightly in his hand, causing Lu Jinye's hand to hurt.
The feather arrow broke into two in his hand and fell to the ground.
He Yanli's deep voice rang in her ears, "Your dog is disobedient."
Qiao Wanyan said calmly: "He only listens to me."
After that, there was no response for a long time.
Zi Yuan bravely lowered her head and raised her eyelids to take a peek. Seeing King Jing's gloomy face, she quickly looked away in fear. Fortunately, she was already kneeling on the ground, otherwise she would have slipped again.
Qiao Wanyan couldn't see the expression of the person behind her. Since Lu Xiaogou drank the poison that was fed to him last time in the Temple of the Goddess of Flowers, he has become much more obedient.
She rarely punishes Lu Jinye now.
"Miss Qiao, the Tenth Princess wants you to come over. She said she made some sweets for you to try. The Xiling delegation will arrive in the afternoon, so the princess won't be available to see Miss Qiao."
For some reason, He Baozhu has been highly appreciated by the emperor recently. This time, the Xiling delegation is accompanied by a daughter of the Xiling prince, so He Baozhu will also accompany the prince to meet the Xiling delegation.
The palace maid took a secret look but didn't dare to say anything.
What is going on now? It looks like Prince Jing is teaching Miss Qiao how to shoot arrows?
Isn’t it rumored that these two have a big grudge against each other?
The person in the distance seemed to be Miss Qiao's personal bodyguard. Could it be that Prince Jing was forcing Miss Qiao to shoot her personal bodyguard?
King Jing is too cruel!
There was no response, so Mo Xiao waved his hand to signal her to leave. Soon a guard followed her and seemed to give her some instructions. The palace maid nodded repeatedly and left quickly.
Qiao Wanyan said, "The princess is still waiting for me, so I won't bother Prince Jing to teach me. The prince will teach me when he is not busy anymore."
He Yanli was silent for a moment, then let her go with a dark face.
Qiao Wanyan turned around and left without any reluctance. Zi Yuan immediately followed her, holding an umbrella for her and left as they did.
After walking a long way, Qiao Wanyan suddenly came back jogging.
He Yanli's heartstrings moved slightly, but she smiled and snatched the fancy bow from his hand, "This is mine. It's a beautiful bow given to me by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I forgot to take it."
It was obvious that she was doing it on purpose, but He Yanli did not get angry but laughed instead. He snatched the bow from her hand with his big hand, broke it in two and gave it back to her, "Sorry, my hand slipped."
The smile on Qiao Wanyan's lips disappeared all of a sudden. She glanced at He Yanli and then at the broken bow in his hand. Even if it was repaired, there would inevitably be cracks.
"You have to compensate me for my bow!!!" As he said this, he threw the bow in his hand at him.
Mo Xiao was shocked and then relieved. He scared himself. Even if Miss Qiao slapped the prince at this moment, the prince would not be willing to touch her finger.
The second Miss Qiao was also a person who would become arrogant because of the prince's favor. Knowing that the prince would not really hurt her now, she became even more arrogant than before.
He Yanli said slowly: "No compensation."
Qiao Wanyan frowned. Although the Heshi Bi that the prince had given her before was not to her liking at all, she really liked this Phoenix Bow.
This damn thing actually broke it like this. Qiao Wanyan was so angry that she wanted to slap him.
Qiao Wanyan did not feel any internal friction at all because she was in a bad mood and deliberately angered him, and she put all the blame on the person in front of her.
What horse farm fire? The emperor was at Shanglin Paddock, how dare the guards at the horse farm be so careless as to let the stables and granary fire?
Qiao Wanyan guessed who was behind the fire at the horse farm and sent the prince away so that she could not be alone with him, so she deliberately made things difficult for He Yanli.
But the ultimate move I learned from Yun Heng was that a slap in the face was far less lethal than ignoring him.
Qiao Wanyan said in a clear voice: "I will never talk to you again!"
After saying this, he turned and left.
He Yanli was slightly stunned, as if a little surprised by her reaction.
According to my memory, she might have a bad temper with me, but now...
No, ignore yourself?
"Stop right there!"
Qiao Wanyan seemed not to hear and walked quickly forward.
He Yanli took three or two steps to catch up with her, grabbed her wrist and pulled her back.
Qiao Wanyan tried to shake off his hand but failed, turning her head away from him. Her palm-sized face was expressionless, and her cloud-like dress shone brightly in the sun, making her look as delicate and charming as a porcelain doll.
"I have never been a person without manners. Even if I don't care about you, I will not lose my gentlemanly manners."
Qiao Wanyan rolled her eyes inwardly. Tsk, gentlemanly manners? Haven't you done enough ungentlemanly things? Why are you pretending to be so smart?
She said lightly, "I don't care."
After saying this, he raised his other hand and blew gently twice.
He Yanli's face froze, and he said calmly as if he hadn't seen it: "My father once gave my mother a bow called Chasing the Moon. This is my compensation to you."
Mo Xiao's expression changed slightly. Zhuyue was the masterpiece that the emperor had invited famous craftsmen from Kyushu to create. It was known as the best bow in the world.
This bow was a gift from the emperor to Concubine Hui on the day she entered the palace.
Qiao Wanyan's pupils turned slightly. Holding the Moon-Chasing Piece in his hand, what expression would the prince have?
The sense of crisis is always the trigger for a man's desire to win.
