Ashnak also didn't notice that after the two archery targets were put on the white jade platform, Xiao Jining never looked back at them.

Xiao Ji Ning just stood there silently, his eyes seemed to be looking at him, and seemed to pass through him and fall to another place.

And at this moment, Xiao Jining was indeed not looking at Ashnak, because he didn't want to look at the two archery targets behind him, so he turned his back to them and didn't turn his head.

Xiao Jining raised his eyes slightly, and looked at the boundless sky behind Ashnak. He only felt that the sky today was as blue as the first time he entered the Qingshan Mental Hospital.

It's just that the feeling of his feet standing on the ground at this moment is so real, but in Qingshan Mental Hospital, his feet can't support him to stand up at all.

He also didn't know if he could face the target without the counseling of a psychiatrist and the soothing and calming drugs.

Xiao Jining twitched the corners of his lips, smiled and said to Ashnak: "That's fine, the eldest prince will invite you first."

"Since Your Majesty said so, then I won't refuse." Ashnak also smiled at Xiao Jining, and asked someone to fetch his usual bow and arrow.

Ashnak's bow is about a little heavy, and his subordinates need two people to carry it together to move it, but Ashnak is strong and strong, and he can pick up such a bow with one hand.

"My bow has a net weight of two stones and two." Ashnak held the bow arm and pulled the bowstring to full.

All the officials present were stunned when they heard the words, they couldn't believe that Ashnak could draw such a heavy bow, and felt that Xiao Jining would definitely lose to him.

But Xiao Jining had no expression on his face, his back was still facing the target, and he didn't turn his head.

Ashnake stepped beside him, looked down at the Emperor Xiao who was half a head shorter than himself, and asked him with a slanted smile: "I don't know, Your Majesty Yunchu, what kind of bow did you use?"

"It's less than a stone." Xiao Jining also pursed his lips and smiled lightly, "You also know that I am good at literature but not martial arts, and I am not good at martial arts, so I can't hold a bow that is too heavy."

"I've heard about this." Ashnak nodded in agreement, "I also heard that when Emperor Yunxi was in power, His Majesty was poisoned and his life was on the line. I wonder if he is better now?"

Xiao Jining said: "Thanks to General Jing for finding a good doctor for me, I have been fine for a long time."

Ashnak snorted again, holding up the bow and wanted to say something, but Xiao Jining glanced down at the heavy bow in his hand, and said: "It's a pity to use such a heavy bow with a range of only 70 meters. "

As soon as Xiao Jining finished speaking, the light in Ashnak's eyes flickered - the heavier the bow and the fuller the bowstring, the farther the arrow can be shot. Everyone who is proficient in archery knows this reason.

His heavy bow of two stones and two can shoot a hundred meters away, but compared to it, using such a bow requires more physical strength. Now the range of their competition is only 70 meters, which is indeed a bit overkill.

But Xiao Jining, a person who has never touched a bow and arrow, knows this rule, which makes Ashnak a little unexpected.

He didn't think that Xiao Jining was lying to him, because the facts were indeed as Xiao Jining said, there was no one in the capital who saw him touch a bow and arrow.

But Ashnak felt that it would be fine even if he spent more energy, anyway, he was physically strong and energetic, several times better than this weak little emperor, and he would never lose.

"It's not a pity to let His Majesty see it." Ashnak smiled with his head down, and approached Xiao Jining and said, "But Your Majesty, should you turn around?"

"En." Xiao Jining responded softly.

Then he turned on his toes and turned to look at the archery target behind him.

Xiao Jining's eyes were open, and because of the shaking of his body, the things he could see in his sight were also moving, but it was the movement of turning around, but the whole world in Xiao Jining's eyes began to turn upside down——

"Is this your first time seeing a psychiatrist?"

"Um……"

"Is there anything uncomfortable recently?"

"No, but I... can't look at the target."

"Can't see the target? What target?"

"It's the target for archery, the ring target with a yellow heart and a blue border."

"It's nothing, take it easy, everyone is more or less afraid of things, such as patients with claustrophobia, as long as they pay attention not to enter a relatively closed space, it will not affect daily life. This kind of thing is not common in daily life, right? You just need to pay attention to avoid it in daily life."

"Can't... I can't avoid it... It's not something uncommon, it's..."

It's part of my life.

Xiao Jining turned around and stared blankly at the familiar yet unfamiliar archery target in front of him.

The tiniest yellow heart in the entire archery target is like the hottest sun, burning his eyes; the red ring in the middle is like dazzling blood, so that he can even smell the rust The smell of blood is disgusting; the blue edge further outside is like a piece of ice that will not melt for a thousand years, leading a storm to sweep his whole body, bringing him a biting extreme cold, making him tremble uncontrollably tremble.

Such an ordinary archery target is the most frightening thing in the world to him, and he will be tortured forever in this fiery and cold hell, even if he knelt down and kowtowed for mercy , This torture will never end.

Xiao Jining wanted to cry again.

He couldn't control himself, he felt that his whole body was trembling violently, the whole world was spinning rapidly in front of his eyes like a roulette, and his stomach was as painful as if he had swallowed tens of thousands of bows and arrows, which made him want to Vomit some blood.

Xiao Jining even felt that he was shaking like this, his world was shaking like that, how could he still stand?

Or maybe he is not standing, but sitting, sitting in a wheelchair, he is not going to compete with Ashina Ke at this time, he is in the symposium of Qingcheng Mental Hospital, and his patient is still sitting in front of him Folks, they're waiting for him to introduce himself like this—

"My name is Xiao Jining, a national first-class athlete, and my sport is archery."

My name is Xiao Jining, a national first-class athlete, and my sports profession is archery.

But this self-introduction is too ridiculous.

No national level athlete is able to sit in a wheelchair, and no archer is afraid of the target.

The yellow heart of the target on the white jade platform was just like the high-beam yellow lights of the truck that rammed straight towards him that night on his way out of the psychology department, dazzling and scorching.

He was thrown into the sky together with the car, the rolling made him dizzy, and he was hit hard again in an instant, the blood flowed from the wound on his body from the neck to his eyes, his nose, and his mouth , In the bloody smell of rust, in the cold wind of winter night, in a pool of blood that gradually turned cold from warm, he felt that his body was getting colder little by little.

Xiao Jining closed his eyes, as if he was thrown up and landed, his figure was shaking and was about to fall.

But what he fell into was a warm embrace, and that person still had a familiar aura on him, cold and awe-inspiring, but it didn't make him feel cold.

Xiao Jining opened his eyes, saw Jing Yuan's face through a blurry perspective, and also saw the deep eyes of the man looking at him.

"I'm fine..." Xiao Jining moved his lips, and gently left Jing Yuan's arms.

He looked around for a while, and found that everyone's eyes were fixed on him, maybe it was because his actions just now scared them, or maybe it was because his face was really ugly at the moment, and the Seventh Prince and the Eighth Prince were from the banquet. Jian Jian immediately stood up, if Jing Yuan hadn't caught him one step earlier, probably the two of them would have rushed to Baiyutai, right?

Even Ashnak was a little dazed, and asked him in a daze: "Your Majesty Yunchu?"

"I'm fine." Xiao Jining said with lowered eyes, his voice was weak, "It's just that I was a little dizzy just now."

Xi Shu hurriedly said, "Perhaps His Majesty was stabbed yesterday and injured his body."

Ashnak frowned - he was not blind, so he could naturally see that Xiao Jining's face suddenly turned pale after turning around, and his lips were as white as paper without a trace of blood.He thought, maybe Xiao Jining was really uncomfortable; or maybe, this was just a bitter trick Xiao Jining used to avoid competing with him.

So Ashnak didn't speak.

But Xiao Jining waved his hand and reiterated again: "I'm fine."

Ashnak asked him: "Then this arrow is better than a horse?"

Xiao Jining didn't answer his question anymore.

The boy's eyes stared straight at the archery target in front of him, and then lowered his eyes. His black feather-like eyelashes cast a shadow under his eyes, making him weak and vulnerable. He moved his lips, as if Talking to another man next to him.

And where Ashinaq couldn't see, Xiao Jining took the initiative to reach out to touch Jingyuan's.

He put his fingers into Jingyuan's palm, absorbing the temperature of his body: "You will stand by my side and stay with me, okay?"

Jing Yuan held his cold fingers tightly until it was no longer so cold, then he replied in a deep voice: "Okay."

Hearing this, the young man raised his head. Those almond eyes that he once saw as if they were full of broken stars were still full of hope at this moment. Standing under the sun, the twinkling pupils in his eyes looked like tears, but more like tears. A group of jumping fireflies, he smiled, but his voice was very hoarse: "It's so nice to have you here with me..."

After whispering these words, the boy let go of his hand and stood up straight again.

His face was still pale and bloodless, and his voice was still a little soft, not tough enough: "This arrow needs to be compared."

He also continued to say to Ashnak: "Ashnak, you know that among the nine sons of Emperor Yunhong, I am the most mediocre one."

"In terms of essays, I am not as good as the first prince who is full of pearls and knowledge; when it comes to martial arts, I am not as good as the second brother who is in charge of a single man, and I am invincible to all enemies; when it comes to loyalty and filial piety, I am not as good as the third brother, who is filial and loyal."

"In terms of tactics, I can't compare to Brother Four and Brother Five. They have deep thoughts, but they can keep their sharp edges away."

"In terms of resourcefulness and talent, Brother Seventh Emperor and Eighth Emperor are even more far beyond my reach. They worked hard for the people of the Great Xiao, and patrolled the state capitals to eradicate treacherous officials and courtiers."

"It's just other things. There are places where I will lose to Brother Six."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Jining turned to look at the princes in the left seat, and smiled at the sixth prince.

The sixth prince quickly waved his hands: "I dare not, dare not..."

The fourth and fifth princes pursed their lips and remained silent.

The Seventh Prince and Eighth Prince really wanted to talk, wanted to comfort their younger brother, and told Xiao Jining that he was not such a useless person.

"When the father was alive, he never cared for me to inherit this position." Xiao Jining looked away with a smile, then looked at the ministers at the table, raised his voice slightly, and continued, "So you can ask Da Xiao These officials, who among them want me to be the emperor! Who want me to sit in this position!"

"But it is such a useless prince like me who finally sat on the throne."

The officials pointed out by Xiao Jining all lowered their heads, not daring to meet Xiao Jining's eyes again.

The smile on Ashnak's lips had completely disappeared, he frowned tightly, and asked Xiao Jining: "Your Majesty Yun Chu, what exactly do you want to say?"

"What I want to say is, Ashinaq, you lost."

"Compared to the eldest prince who always swears, I think you have the appearance of an emperor, but it's a pity that you will lose to me today." Xiao Jining took a deep breath, and the smile on his face became brighter.

"Because only archery, I will never lose to anyone."

After Xiao Jining finished speaking, he turned to the target again and said in a loud voice, "Come here—"

"Get a bow for me!"
