Emperor Yan arrived, and with him was Meng Xiaoxiao.

Compared to yesterday's embarrassment, Meng Xiaoxiao's aura today can be said to be in full swing, as if she was about to go to the battlefield.

Archery competition is a competition of archery skills, divided into four rounds.

The first round is 50 meters, each person has three arrows, and ten people are left.

In the second round, 100 meters, each person has three arrows, leaving five people.

The third round, 150 meters, each person has two arrows, leaving three people.

In the last round, each person takes an arrow to determine the winner.

The prizes are different every year and are all given by the royal family. Emperor Yan stood on the high platform and waved his hand.

Jin Zhong and several young eunuchs filed in, all carrying trays. Jin Zhong's sharp and harsh voice echoed in the venue.

"The third place, a pair of Ruyi jade, worth a hundred taels of gold; the second place, a pair of exquisite balls, worth a thousand taels of gold; the first place, a pair of Ganoderma lucidum, a blue dragon sword, worth ten thousand taels of gold."

With a loyal voice, the little eunuch opened the red cloth on the tray and revealed the prizes one by one. Jade Ruyi, Exquisite Ball, Ganoderma lucidum and Green Dragon Sword.

Qingyun looked at the tray belonging to the first place with glowing eyes. This first place prize was simply made for her. She swallowed and wanted it.

There is no clear rule in the archery competition that women cannot participate, and women have participated before and achieved very good results. But she didn't want to expose herself so quickly, as it would be bad for herself.

She turned to look at Qing Xiao who was staring at the Linglong Ball, "Brother, do you want to win the Linglong Ball for sister Ruochu?".

"How do you know?" Qing Xiao quickly turned to look at Qingyun.

"Brother, I almost have these words written on my face."

"Is it that obvious?" Qing Xiao rubbed his face.

Qingyun shook her head, it seemed that Qingxiao had no hope. I wanted to look for Shen Lingfei on the field, but ended up looking at Yan Siyuan.

Yan Siyuan smiled at her, raised his chin and pointed in the direction of Ganoderma lucidum with doubt.

Qingyun shook her head, saying she didn't want him to help, and then went to see Shen Lingfei.

She found that Shen Lingfei was also looking at her, with a look of determination on his face. He mouthed to Qingyun: "Qingyun, let me help you win Ganoderma lucidum."

Qingyun had a bitter face. The more Shen Lingfei said this, the less she believed Shen Lingfei.

At the beginning of the first arrow match, Qingyun still did not decide to participate. It was not worth it to show her trump card for Ganoderma lucidum.

On the shooting range, the palace officials set up targets, and the contestants stood fifty meters away.

Waiting for others to stand still, there was a commotion on the field because of Lu Xingci. It was the first time for Lu Xingci to participate in this kind of competition, just like the first time he won a place in the autumn hunt.

Qingyun grabbed Mo Jingchun's hand and stopped her from clasping her fingers. She was very nervous, even more nervous than Lu Xingci standing on the racing car.

Patting her hand comfortingly, Mo Jingchun smiled at Qingyun and continued to stare at Lu Xingci.

"First arrow, shoot!".

As Zhongzhong finished his words, the people on the field shot out arrows. Every time they shot an arrow, it would cause quite a commotion. For the man's heroic figure and superb archery skills.

Even though it was just a shot of an arrow, it already made many noble ladies blush and their hearts beat. Every year at the end of the autumn hunting, several couples would get together, which was considered a blind date in disguise.

At the end of the first round, everyone who was supposed to advance was gone. The most outstanding ones should be Yan Siyuan, Lu Xingci, Qing Xiao and Shen Lingfei. They all hit the bull's-eye with three arrows in a row.

In the second round, Chu Yi, Yan Muen and Yan Jingcheng were eliminated. The first four people still output steadily, and then they brought Chu Yan.

Qingyun finally figured it out. When all of them were put together, none of them were normal. All of them exceeded the standard.

In the third round, miraculously only one Chu Yan was eliminated. Because Yan Siyuanbo and Lu Xingci tied for first place, not only did they both hit the bullseye, but their arrows were also in the same position, and even the arrow holes did not change.

On the field, the two looked at each other. Lu Xingci gave a sly smile, "I mean, Siyuan, how about you give up the first place to me and invite you to listen to the show?"

"No, I've had enough of your drama."

"Tch, people want to hear it but they can't," Lu Xingci said in an arrogant tone.

"Be careful, don't lose to me," Yan Siyuan reminded.

"No, we haven't seen each other for so many years, don't you think I'm useless?"

"I never thought so," Yan Siyuan looked at him seriously.

The current Lu Xingci is the Lu Xingci he knew before. He should have been a young man full of glory, not an idle playboy.

Lu Xingci raised his eyebrows and raised the corners of his mouth, "Then let's see."

In the final round, the result remained unchanged and unprecedented. Except for Shen Lingfei, the other three were very happy.

No, there is still one person who is unhappy, and that is Meng Xiaoxiao. Meng Xiaoxiao was unhappy because Yan Jingcheng didn't even come to the third round, and she still expected to earn some face today.

Even every family either threatened or bribed them, except the Prime Minister's Mansion, Wenzhenghou Mansion and Shen Shangshu Mansion. It happened that these families were against her.

Shen Lingfei was unhappy because he didn't get Ganoderma lucidum for Qingyun and ended up wilting.

Gu Mingrui took the bow and arrow from his hand and comforted him: "Third is pretty good, you don't have to be so strong."

"It's not that I'm strong, I just want to do something for her. Before he came, I did all this." The "him" he was talking about was Yan Siyuan.

"Am I too useless?" Shen Lingfei asked Gu Mingrui.

"Maybe she doesn't care?".

"What?".

"Look, there are so many people fighting for her to get what she wants, and there is no shortage of you. Maybe she doesn't care whether you get it or not."

"Not much."

"The Ninth Highness, Qing Shaoqing, and even the Eighth Highness."

"No, Brother Qing is getting the exquisite ball for Miss Lin. Yan Muen doesn't have that ability, and Qingyun hates her. Only His Highness the Ninth Prince is sincere towards Qingyun."

"You know?" Gu Mingrui was a little surprised.

"Of course I know. Brother Qing deliberately missed the shot. Didn't you see it?"

"I saw it, but I was talking about His Highness Ninth Prince. Do you know that His Highness Ninth Prince likes the princess?".

"I know".

"Then you still work for the princess."

"I didn't do anything for her, I just wanted to get what she wanted."

"But why?".

Gu Mingrui didn't understand, since Shen Lingfei knew that Yan Siyuan liked Qingyun, why would he do so much for her? Yan Siyuan would do it for her.

"There is no reason, because she is Qingyun and I am Shen Lingfei."

Shen Lingfei glanced at him, "I'm going to find Qingyun, you go back."

Gu Mingrui looked at Shen Lingfei's back, his expression gradually darkened.

Shen Lingfei was the first to come to Qingyun. He came running, breathing heavily and unable to speak.

Qingyun fanned him with a brocade fan, although it was of no use.

Shen Lingfei regained his composure and said: "Qingyun, I'm sorry, I didn't get the first place."

"It's okay, if you don't have it, you won't have it."

"I have ginseng at home. I'll steal it for you later." Shen Lingfei approached Qingyun and whispered in her ear.

Qingyun's eyes lit up. She didn't have Ganoderma lucidum, but ginseng would do. "Is it true?"

"Of course, hug me." Shen Lingfei patted his chest generously.

"Don't you think Yan Siyuan will give Ganoderma lucidum to me?". Qingyun asked.

She was also at the exit just now and heard what Shen Lingfei and Gu Mingrui said, so she was also curious.

"His Royal Highness Ninth will give it to you, but Qingyun, you won't want it."

Qingyun was stunned for a moment, "Are you so sure I won't want it?"

"yes".

Qingyun smiled. She was really stupid. Shen Lingfei grew up with her. Shen Lingfei knew what she was thinking.

Just like she knew what Shen Lingfei was thinking, they knew each other too well.
