Chapter 94 Gift Giving (Update 1)
"Ye Yunfeng! Are you okay?"
The teaching assistant asked with a worried look on his face.
Ye Yunfeng said nothing, looking forward with cold eyes.
Feng Zhang strode forward and shouted, "Murong Ye! What are you doing!?"
Hearing this angry voice, everyone shuddered.
Murong Ye's eyebrows and heart twitched, and his previous arrogant attitude finally subsided a little.
Although Feng Zhang's rank is not high, he has the general who guards the country behind him, so he cannot be provoked.
He smiled at Feng Zhang ingratiatingly: "Master Siye, I'm so sorry, I didn't aim. I was going to shoot at the target behind him, but the horse was disobedient and suddenly moved, and I... I swear, I didn't mean it!"
Feng Zhang's face was grim.
Everyone knew who Murong Ye was aiming at with that arrow just now.
But if he refuses to admit it, no one can do anything to him, after all, Ye Yunfeng was not really injured.
Moreover, there have been cases of accidental injuries in previous monthly exams.
Feng Zhang scolded him harshly: "You didn't aim? This is not the first day you have been learning archery. How could you make such a stupid mistake? All the skills you learned have gone to waste!"
The huge training ground was extremely quiet, and the playful smile on Murong Ye's face froze.
He had never been scolded so harshly in public by anyone.
But this was Feng Zhang, and he was indeed in the wrong, so he couldn't even say a word in rebuttal.
Murong Ye suppressed his frustration, turned his head and looked at Ye Yunfeng, with a mocking arc on his lips: "Master Siye is teaching me that I was indeed at fault this time, but... I think Ye Yunfeng is fine, he shouldn't mind, right?"
A cold light flashed in Ye Yunfeng's eyes, and he said word by word: "I really care."
Murong Ye lowered his gaze and glanced at the broken bow in Ye Yunfeng's hand, and snorted indifferently.
"It's just a bow. I'll compensate you! I'll give you double the price you paid for it!"
Ye Yunfeng's face seemed to be covered with a layer of condensed frost.
Murong Ye's smile froze. For some reason, he felt an unspeakable sense of danger from Ye Yunfeng.
This feeling made him very uncomfortable.
He pinched the back of his neck and said, "It's just a bow, what's the big deal? Besides, you can't blame me for it all. It's your fault that your bow broke when you touched it! Remember to buy a better one next time, don't buy such low-quality things just to save money."
Ye Yunfeng stared at him closely and said slowly: "Say it again?"
Murong Ye met those narrow, dark eyes, his heart skipped a beat, and the words in his throat suddenly choked and he couldn't utter them out.
He looked away awkwardly and curled his lips:
"The bow is broken, so we can't continue with this exam. Either you give up directly, or go and borrow another one. Anyway, don't waste everyone's time."
Ye Jingyan stepped forward: "Afeng, use mine."
No matter what, I can't retreat at this time, otherwise I will be laughed at by Murong Ye and the others.
Ye Yunfeng clamped his legs under the horse's belly, walked to the side of the field, and handed the broken bow in his hand to Ye Jingyan.
Ye Jingyan observed his expression and whispered, "Ah Feng, do you remember what my sister told you before you came here?"
Ye Yunfeng paused and pursed his lips: "I remember."
This is the capital after all.
Ye Jingyan nodded and handed over his bow.
However, just when Ye Yunfeng's hand just touched the bow, Murong Ye behind him laughed again and said, "Your bow is not good, your brother's should not be much better, right? Otherwise, I will lend you one?"
This is a naked humiliation!
Ye Yunfeng turned around suddenly with a cold look, but before he could speak, he suddenly heard a familiar voice coming from the side.
"Fourth Master Ye."
Ye Yunfeng looked in the direction of the voice and was stunned.
The person who came was Lian Zhou.
When the teaching assistants and students saw him, they also began to talk in low voices.
"Who is that?"
"You don't recognize this? Didn't you see the token on his waist? He is the son of the Marquis Dingbei!"
"I just heard that the prince of Dingbei Marquis has arrived. Lord Siye arrived so late. I guess it's because of this, right?"
"Look, the guy standing over there in the pavilion looks like the prince!"
Shen Yanchuan's trip was low-key and most people didn't know about it.
It was not until the conflict between Murong Ye and Ye Yunfeng broke out and Feng Zhang appeared that everyone noticed that the son of Dingbei Marquis had also come, and had been staying at the stele pavilion. He probably had seen everything.
Many people became excited.
Although many of them were children of officials, they were still far inferior to royal nobles like the Prince of Dingbei.
When they learned that he was coming, everyone was naturally excited.
But...why did his confidant come here suddenly, and come to find Ye Yunfeng?
Amid the puzzled looks of the crowd, Lian Zhou walked straight to the training ground.
He handed over a rectangular rosewood box with both hands and said with a smile, "Master Ye Si's bow is broken, why not use this one?"
…
Dead silence.
Everyone was shocked and thought they had heard it wrong.
What is... happening?
Even Ye Yunfeng was stunned.
"What?"
Lian Zhou smiled and explained, "In fact, when the prince learned that the two young masters were enrolled in the Imperial College, he had already ordered people to forge two useful bows to give to the two of them. But because they were custom-made, they took a long time to make, and Doctor Ye was busy with the eldest princess's health recently, so he has not been able to give them out. It just so happens that I came to the Imperial College today, so I took this opportunity to give them to the two of you directly."
Everyone stayed where they were.
Qiao Zimo's eyes widened and he muttered, "...What do you mean? The prince offered to give the bow to him, or did he take a long time to give it to him?!"
Murong Ye was filled with shock.
He knew that Ye Chutang was acquainted with the son of Marquis Dingbei, and he also heard that she had been going to the Princess's Mansion recently. But, but - she was actually so proud! ?
How many people wanted to get into Dingbei Marquis Mansion but never had the chance, but she, an orphan who had been in exile for three years, actually...
I've only heard of others unable to find ways to give gifts to the prince of Dingbei Marquis, but I've never heard of him wanting to give a gift but never being able to do so, and having to come to the Imperial College specifically to deliver it! ?
Ye Yunfeng was also a little confused and subconsciously looked at Ye Jingyan.
Ye Jingyan looked at the valuable wooden box and his first reaction was to refuse.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness, but this gift is too valuable. We—"
"Doctor Ye has made great contributions in saving the princess. A small gift of thanks is not enough to show respect." Lian Zhou said.
We were in front of everyone, so it was hard to offend that person.
Ye Jingyan paused and looked at the tall and straight figure in the pavilion in the distance: "Thank you very much, Your Highness."
…
The moment Ye Yunfeng opened the box, his eyes lit up instantly.
He picked up the bow; it was thick, tough and very heavy.
He weighed it and liked it more and more, and pulled an arrow directly from the quiver.
Draw the bow—the tip of the arrow points directly at Murong Ye!
