Chapter 5 05. Look at the Bow

Although Tanying Temple is good, there are times when you can see it.Jiangtai is not far from Tanying Temple. It was originally the place where Emperor Min abolished the government and played. Now it has already become the place where the princes and grandchildren practice archery.

Qin Minzhi learned from nowhere that Zhou Han was in poor health when he was young, so he was extremely envious of the general who galloped on the battlefield. When he went to Tanying Temple, he asked Fuyan to carry an ancient ivory-carved bow on his back. Zhou Han went to Jiangtai to shoot arrows.

Several adults in the court can testify that Qin Minzhi's archery skills are excellent.However, when Qin Minzhi first entered the capital, he was not admired by those adults, and no one knew how good his archery skills were.

Qin Minzhi is the grandson of King Mengdong, and his teacher is Qian Guiyi, Qian Guiyi, Qian Guiyi, who is the head of the king's capital Sanhao, the former prime minister, Liu Chan, who has a high self-esteem, once said: "Since the death of Mr. Qi is the second person in the world."

And Qian Guiyi highly respected Qin Minzhi, saying that he "is very suspicious that a star on the sea fell into the world by mistake. Given the years and months, his ability to do it will surely surpass me." Highly praised, and there is a saying that "I don't understand the kindness of Tibetans all my life, and I say pity to everyone everywhere", which made everyone in the capital use the term "speak compassion to everyone" as a good word for someone.

Because of the respect of Mr. Qian and King Mengdong, before Qin Minzhi came to the capital, several adults in the court even suspected that Qin Minzhi, who appeared out of nowhere, was a monster—no one knew he was a monster. Where did King Mengdong recognize his grandson, and no one knew what kind of magic he cast on the policy paper, which made the always sharp-tongued Qian Zaifu bewitched.

That year, Qin Minzhi came to the capital for the first time to take the imperial examination. When the emperor was hunting and having a banquet in Shanglinyuan, he heard some adults chatting about him, and out of curiosity, he summoned him and gave him roasted venison.On the same day, a giant bear in Yuan Mountain ran wildly down the mountain, shot to death more than ten imperial guards and rushed into Shanglin Garden with injuries all over, and rushed to the emperor's palace smelling the smell of meat.

The emperor shook his chopsticks when he heard the roar of the giant bear, and the other senior ministers trembled and crawled to the emperor's side, taking refuge in the name of looking for chopsticks.Among the young people, one of Qin Min grabbed the emperor's precious bow that was placed aside, rushed out with the palace guards, pulled the bow three hundred steps away, and while the giant bear was still running, an arrow pierced its brain .Since then, Qin Minzhi has obtained an official position, and the policies he wrote at the beginning, such as opening tea in poor mountains and asking for tea tax to offset rent, etc., were also implemented one by one because of the difficulties reported in the state newspapers.

"I brought a two-stone bow, Hanzhi, you have to try it." Qin Minzhi untied the fox fur and stood beside Zhou Han. Under the fox fur, he had changed into a round neck shirt with a golden peony on the right shoulder. , the belt around the waist is also nailed with gold, several layers of collars are exposed at the neckline, the white collar is close to the neck, and the hair is tied with a gold crown inlaid with water foam, jade scrolls, clouds and water cliffs-this black gold suit looks a bit The dominance hidden in Qin Minzhi's temperament.As he spoke, he put on a jasper finger wrench, and took the ancient bow from Fuyan.

Zhou Han looked at the crow's eye target under the stage and squeezed his wrist eagerly, "I didn't teach archery in the academy before, I only tried it when I was hunting with my uncle at home. It should be a little bit hard for me to open a two-stone bow, but I can open it. Never shot anything alive since."

"It's okay, you and I are just trying our hands today, dead objects are easier to shoot than living ones." Qin Minzhi said, steadying his steps, exerting force with his arms easily, and just as he finished speaking, a white feather arrow flew out with a "swish". The bull's-eye hits the target alone.

After trying the bowstring, Qin Minzhi withdrew his arm and picked off the finger, and handed the bow and arrow and the finger to Zhou Han, "Today I will teach Hanzhi how to shoot an arrow. If Hanzhi can hit the arrow within two rings of the white feather arrow before sunset, , the finger pull is yours. If you can’t, you will lose to me the Yinyun Zihao pen you often use.”

Zhou Han put on his fingers and pulled the bowstring with all his strength, and said with a smile: "Then Rong Gu probably lost!" After he finished speaking, he let go, and another white-feathered arrow flew out, and the white feather arrow that was firmly inserted in the bull's-eye under the arrow.

"Amazing!" Qin Minzhi looked at Zhou Han with twinkling stars in his eyes, "I underestimated you, you always surprise me."

"It's because you are worrying and thinking about my face," Zhou Han said frankly: "You are afraid that I will lose face, so you asked the guards to move the arrow forward a lot. This target is so close to me, I don't have to use it. Pull the bowstring with all your strength, and of course you can hit the red heart. Please, Mr. Qin, move the target five feet back, and spare no effort to teach me."

"If you don't admit defeat, then I'm a strict teacher." Qin Minzhi said, and waved Fuyan to find someone to adjust the target.

Zhou Han twisted his fingers, and clasped his fists at Qin Minzhi, "Strict teachers lead to high-level apprentices, I must study hard, so as not to insult Mr. Qin's teachings when I draw my bow in the future."

"It depends on your aptitude. If it's not good, I won't accept it." Qin Minzhi stood behind Zhou Han, hooked Zhou Han with his left foot, and asked him to separate his feet a little. He raised his bow, and said calmly in his ear with red ears: "I think Xiao Zhou Lang's aptitude is not bad. If that's the case, if you miss the shot, we won't go back today."

Zhou Han turned his head, and saw Qin Minzhi's ears were red from the corner of his eye, and asked him out of concern, "Rong Gu, are you feeling well?"

"Concentrate. When shooting arrows, you need to be straight inside and out." Qin Minzhi said in a calm voice, "I don't have much clothes on, so I'll put on a fox fur in a while."

But Master Yan Qin Minzhi was not cold after all, and because he thought it was too hot, he didn't put on the fox fur at the end.Zhou Han was willing to learn, and Qin Minzhi was naturally willing to teach with all his heart. The two competed while learning, until Zhou Han was so tired that he could barely lift his arms before coming out of Jiangtai, and then went to Tanying Temple to eat vegetarian food before going back. Walk.

In the night, the sky is slanted by stars and men. Although I don't hear the sound of the Milky Way, I feel that the night under the sky is cooler than water.

Fuyan Dama followed the two of them, saw Zhou Han secretly squeezed his arms on the horse, looked around and said to Qin Minzhi: "My lord, the green gourd alley is ahead, I heard the young master say that the food in Qingfuzhai is exquisite. , you are all eating vegetarian food at noon and evening today, why don't you go to Qingfu Zhai to make up for some tea and food."

Qin Minzhi stopped the horse under him by reining in the reins, and teased Fuyan: "You don't feel sorry for your lord, but you know you love others. If it wasn't for Zhao Yu's work, I would have no one by my side."

Xiao Fuyan laughed twice, "If your lord wants to have someone by his side, it's not easy, just marry a wife. The lady of Su Shangshu's family is very nice."

"Even if King Xiang has a dream, but the Goddess has no intention of caring for him. Besides, King Xiang hasn't had a dream recently." The candle behind Qin Minzhi flickered, hiding his edges and corners in the darkness, only looking extra soft. Zhou Han said: "Hanzhi's arms are sore, you and I bought some food, we just ate and walked back."

Knowing that Qin Minzhi was careful, Zhou Han nodded and got off the horse, "My mother often brought me here when I was young, and I asked Rong Gu to eat something delicious."

"Since it's time to open my mouth, I will naturally be obedient." Qin Minzhi got off his horse as he spoke, pulled the horse aside and handed the reins to Fu Yan.

Zhou Han first arrived at the gate of Qingfuzhai, looked at the menu and thought about the refreshments he had when he was a child, and ordered Flame Golden Corn Cake, Almond Sesame Cake and Imperial Concubine Steamed Dumplings.

The round-faced guy in the store wrapped the things in oiled paper, "It's hot, and it's best for winter. Be careful not to burn your hands when you hold it. Three things cost one money."

"Wait a minute." Zhou Han took out a somewhat frayed moon-white purse from his sleeve. The purse was embroidered with Zizhi fairy deer, and the tape was crooked.Zhou Han was wearing a black mountain and sea Beidou cloak, and his whole body was neat, and the slightly worn purse seemed out of proportion to him.He loosened his belt, took out the silver and handed it over, just as Qin Minzhi walked over, staring at his purse and thinking.

"I saw that you don't eat sweets very much, so you only ordered a salty flower cake." Zhou Han handed over the flame golden corn cake half-wrapped in oil paper.

Qin Minzhi came back to his senses and nodded and took the flower cake, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Hanzhi's purse is very unique, and it looks like it was embroidered with care. It must be a gift from a girl you cherish."

"Well, I like this purse the most." Zhou Han didn't say anything else, nodded and put a steamed dumpling on a bamboo stick to dry, "I also like people who embroider purses."

Qin Minzhi let out a low "ah..." and lowered his head to look at his flower cake, only to feel that the stars all over the sky were falling one after another, hitting his head, making him dizzy dizzy.

Seeing Qin Minzhi looking at the flower cake with affection, Zhou Han handed the cooled steamed dumplings under his eyelids, "Don't be reluctant to eat it, I will buy it for you later. Do you want steamed dumplings?"

"You have a purse." Qin Minzhi heard himself asking Zhou Han with disappointment and tentativeness, "It's a little old, I can give you a new one." He paused, then almost stammered and asked: "Still, Hanzhi, you...have...a sweetheart? This is a gift from her."

"I can't bear to change this purse." Seeing Qin Minzhi's gloomy mood, Zhou Han thought that he wanted a woman in his heart but couldn't get a woman, and was suffering from unrequited love, so he smiled gently at him and comforted him, "Rong Gu is very good." , there must be someone who likes you. I am miserable than you. I was a bit stupid when I was studying in the academy a few years ago. My first purse was specially given to me as a congratulatory gift for my 15th birthday, and she pricked her fingers quite a few times at that time, she was such a silly girl."

The word "sister" got into Qin Minzhi's ears, and he pretended to sigh in a low voice, "I knew it was your sister who embroidered it. Your sister must be an ingenious girl. That's why I envy you." Well, I don’t have such a younger sister.” He ate the cold steamed dumpling that Zhou Han handed over, and tasted his own flower cake after eating, thinking that Han Zhi only had a younger sister, and in his heart The girl who didn't have any yearning, couldn't help but feel better.

Zhou Han inserted another steamed dumpling to dry, and looked at Qin Minzhi expectantly, "What does the flower cake taste like?"

"Sweet." Qin Minzhi swallowed it and said cheerfully, "It tastes good."

"Hmm... is it sweet?" Zhou Han suspected that he had mistakenly given Qin Minzhi the almond-sesame cake that he bought for Fuyan. He looked at the cake left in his hand and suddenly felt that it might be the flame of Qingfuzhai The golden corn cake has new fillings.

"My lord——" Fu Yan stood by the wall, listening to the wind and smelling the fragrance, watching the two of them eating and drinking with greedy eyes, "Hurry over here, let's go back quickly."

The author has something to say: It is always good to see poetry several times, and the standard style is better than poetry.I have never understood the kindness of Tibetans all my life, and I met people talking about Xiang Si everywhere. ——Yang Jingzhi's "Gift Items"
