Chapter 188 Strength is also part of luck



It must be said that Yinzuo, as a lucky man chosen by God, has some luck on him. He got off to a good start at the very beginning of the competition, and the fish he caught looked quite big. With such a record, our Prince Zhaojun must be very happy.

"Brother, I'm so sorry. Look, the competition has just started and my little brother has already caught a fish..."

Yinzhi had always been very competitive, and Yinzuo's boasting made him even more competitive. But what Yinzuo had said before was absolutely right. Fishing is not just about pure strength, but sometimes it also requires a little luck. But it was obvious that Yinzhi's luck was not very good today. He sat there staring at the float for more than half an hour, but he didn't catch any big fish, not even a small fry.

Isn't there a saying that there is no harm without comparison? It would have been fine if both Yinzhi and Yinzuo failed to catch any fish, but the guy sitting next to Yinzhi was extremely lucky today. Not only did he catch fish one after another, but every time he caught a fish he would insist on calling "big brother" to show it to him. In the whole morning, Yinzhi didn't catch a single fish, but his stomach was about to burst - he was so angry with Yinzuo.

"Li Yu, go get me a bow and arrow. I don't believe that if I can't catch fish, I can't shoot this fish. Sixth brother, I will show you my skills and let you see my true ability."

To be honest, Yinzuo didn't quite believe what Yinzhi said. Although his elder brother was a great archer, the prey he usually shot were visible to the naked eye. At this moment, they were on a moving boat. Yinzuo stared at the water for the whole morning and didn't see a single fish. He didn't believe that his elder brother's arrow had eyes and could go down into the water to find fish.

I have to say that the eldest brother does have some skills. Even though he was unlucky today, he relied on his own strength to shoot the fish with his big bow. When Yinzuo saw his eldest brother pulling the rope to drag the fish back, his heart was almost filled with the two words "I relied on it". It's all part of luck and part of strength. Now it seems that this is also applicable in reverse.

"Brother, you are amazing! Our boat is moving. With the waves pushing it up, even if there is a fish floating on the surface, it would not be so easy to see, right? Brother, tell me quickly, how did you shoot this fish in one shot? Does your arrow really have eyes?"

Yinzhi was very proud of being deified by this arrow, and he accepted his brother's admiration. He first took off the arrow hanging on the fish, and then told Li Yu to put the fish into the bucket. Only then did he turn around and look at Yinzuo who was looking at him with shining eyes.

"Sixth brother, you should just go fishing honestly. Trust me, you won't need this method..."

I don't need it? "Brother, aren't you just saying I'm a loser?" You're telling the truth, but it really hurts. Are you being so direct with me now? Can't you please pay attention to social etiquette?

"Hmph, what's so great about that? Big brother, you're being unkind. How can you compare your strengths with others' weaknesses? My archery skills may not be as good as yours, but they're still decent enough."

Yinzhi nodded when he heard this, and then gave a very pertinent evaluation of Yinzuo's archery skills.

"Sixth brother, you are being too modest. Your archery skills are not just okay, they are absolutely okay..."

Good, very good, very good. This is the end of the story for the day. Although Yinzhen's fishing skills are indeed good, he was delayed for so long before. Even if he can hit the target every time now, it will not affect the outcome of the game at all. There is no doubt that Yinzuo became the final winner of this game.

Yinzuo was naturally happy to win the game. Although Yinzhi lost the game, he had fully demonstrated his strength to his opponent, so he was in a very good mood at this time. The two brothers asked someone to send the fish to the kitchen, washed their hands, and then returned to the cabin to see Kangxi.

When they entered the cabin's flower hall, Kangxi and Yinzhi were sitting by the window playing chess. In response to Yinzhi's greetings, Kangxi simply waved his hand to signal them to stand up. His eyes never left the chessboard in front of him from beginning to end. Yinzhi naturally didn't dare to disturb Kangxi unless Kangxi spoke. But Yinzuo was different. He didn't care whether his father was playing at a critical moment. He stood up and ran towards Kangxi. When he got in front of Kangxi, he squeezed in and sat next to Kangxi. Then, regardless of whether Kangxi was willing to listen or not, he recounted to his father the process of the game with his elder brother. Of course, the most crucial part was his elder brother's archery skills of shooting through the arrows from a hundred paces away.

Originally, Kangxi had no interest in their boring fishing competition, but when he heard Yinzhi shooting fish with a bow and arrow, he paused while playing chess and turned to look at Yinzuo who was still praising his elder brother.

"You mean your eldest brother shot a fish in the river with a bow and arrow, and he hit it?"

Yinzuo was admiring his elder brother at the moment. When he heard his father's question, he nodded immediately and stood up to tell his father what had happened.

"Father, you also find it incredible, don't you? You don't know how dumbfounded your son was at that time. You have to know that our boat is moving now, and the waves it creates are so huge that you can't see the scenery on the river surface at all. Big brother can shoot a fish in the river with one arrow while standing on the boat. Not only does he have great archery skills, but his eyesight is also incredible..."

How does the saying go? Yes, a kind word can warm you through the coldest months. Anyway, Yinzhi felt very warmed by Yinzo's praise. Kangxi was naturally very happy that his son was so capable. The old man's way of expressing his happiness was also very simple, which was just one word - reward, and it was the kind of reward that showed one's share. Yinzo was already in a good mood after winning the game today, and now he got the money, so naturally he was in a very good mood.

"Eunuch Liang, please help me find someone to go to the kitchen and tell them to cook less of the other dishes tonight and make more fish in different flavors. I like sweet and sour fish, braised fish, garlic fish fillets, spicy fish cubes, sour soup fish fillets, boiled fish. In short, ask them to cook everything they know for me."

Liang Jiugong was already accustomed to Yinzuo's way of ordering dishes one by one. Seeing that Kangxi did not speak to stop him, he responded with a smile, raised his hand to call the palace servant who was serving next to him to come over and gave him a few simple instructions. Then he saw the palace servant hurriedly eating the food in the cabin.
