Jun You Ji Fou

As the sun sinks into the moon, no matter who is meditating and sleepless that night, when Xiao Se enters the house, he has to put his thoughts aside and dress up for the banquet.

Emperor Li Yanzhen of Great Xia has always been well versed in elegant things, and this open-air banquet was organized with even more care: flowers fell in the middle of Shengge and string music, dancers showed off their postures with singing and dancing, and the fragrant dust under their feet attracted colorful butterflies, and there was even a jade cup. Fine wine flows from the water.

As usual, the seats of Taiwei and Yushi doctor are divided into two.Chu Mingyun supported his chin with one hand, and met Su Shiyu's accidental gaze, but saw that he just smiled lightly, and then closed his eyes to drink, no different from before.

No waves, not even a trace of displeasure.If it wasn't for the way he turned his head and didn't want to take a second look at himself, he could really remember it clearly, Chu Mingyun would almost mistakenly think that last night was just a drunken dream.I don't know if Su Shiyu was thinking about "don't worry about it" again, which made him so unresponsive.Chu Mingyun took down the wine cup slowly parked in front of him in the floating water, and couldn't help frowning slightly.

There was a break in the song, before Le Ji plucked the strings to continue, someone suddenly sighed heavily in the gap, and made the sigh quite clear.

Everyone looked at the seats of the Huns envoys in unison.

Li Yanzhen also looked over and asked, "Why is the Ninth Prince sighing? Could it be that he is dissatisfied with the reception?"

Yuwen Sun stood up and bowed to Li Yanzhen, before saying: "Your Majesty's hospitality is generous, how can you feel dissatisfied." He glanced at the people in the seat, and sighed again: "I just think that the atmosphere of your country is really different from that of our Huns. It’s too far away, so I can’t help feeling a little bit emotional.”

"Emotion?" Li Yanzhen was puzzled, "Why don't you tell me?"

"This is our first visit, and we don't know much about your customs and rules. We just think it's not interesting to taste too much food and wine, and the singing and dancing all day is also quite boring. I was originally invited by His Majesty the Emperor to participate in the spring hunting. I thought I can finally see how you guys are riding and archery, and I plan to find a powerful character to compete with. But I didn’t expect that this place is also feasting and having fun.” Yuwen Falcon laughed, and said, “Just now I watched carefully Look, I found that everyone here is very refined, and they don't look like people who are proficient in riding and archery. It must be because the country is stable and there is no need to understand these crude skills. It's not like our side, everyone wants to make a living. Compared with learning these hard things, I am really envious."

The words were flattering, but the tone was well-crafted and sarcastic. As soon as Yuwen Falcon finished speaking, the atmosphere in the meeting suddenly cooled down.

Chu Mingyun turned his head to look, "If His Royal Highness wants to find someone to compete with, I can accompany you."

Yuwen Falcon waved his hand and said with a smile: "Who knows General Chu's iron-blooded reputation on the battlefield? Even though I feel proficient in bows and arrows, I have never been on the battlefield after all. It is true that I want to find someone to learn from and have fun with. It's so boring to be the loser."

"Since you don't dare to compare, what's the use of talking about it?" Chu Mingyun said coldly.

"I don't dare to compare with you, I admit, there is nothing shameful." Yuwen Falcon didn't change his face, "So I just sighed, there is no one else here except General Chu, it's really boring."

Da Xia's ethos of advocating literature over martial arts is well known, even though the Hun prince's words were clearly provocative, they just hit a sore spot, making it impossible for them to refute.

Chu Mingyun was already impatient, "You never finish, if..."

"What your highness said has some truths." Su Shiyu suddenly interrupted him, and stood up, "Master Chu is in a high position, and it would be too much trouble for me to do such a small matter myself."

Chu Mingyun turned his head to look over, Su Shiyu exchanged a glance with him, then turned his eyes back to Yuwen Falcon, and said with a soft smile: "Then what does His Royal Highness think of me? Although I have a civil position, I am not familiar with riding and archery skills." I have some interests, so I can just take this opportunity to experience it, how about that?"

Yuwen Falcon looked at this handsome and elegant young man, and said: "Master Yushi looks so gentle, I'm afraid others will say that I bullied you."

"Your Highness, I really don't understand what you said. Mr. Chu, you think you can't win, and you think I'm too weak, so you refuse in every possible way." Su Shiyu narrowed his eyes slightly, and said with a smile: "Could it be that you only intend to win?" The battle of words, is there no intention of a serious competition?"

"Are you questioning me?" The smile on Yuwen Falcon's face faded.

"Don't dare." Su Shiyu said, "You didn't say it just now, you just chatted for entertainment, why care about winning or losing."

Having said that, everyone knows that this will not be a simple private competition, and it must be about the face of the family and the country.

There was a faint voice of discussion in the field, and Li Yanzhen couldn't help but speak to persuade, "Forget it, just a few jokes, why really have to fight tit for tat."

"Your Majesty has misunderstood," Yuwen Falcon said hastily. "Competitions are commonplace, and there is no other meaning. Since Lord Yushi has already agreed, it would be really bad if you go back on your word."

"This..." Li Yanzhen looked at Su Shiyu worriedly, but the other party gave him a comforting smile, and then asked Yuwen Sun, "What does His Royal Highness want to compete?"

"I don't make it difficult for you to go hunting on horseback. How about just archery?"

He responded with a smile.

Su Shiyu took the longbow presented, the look of nostalgia in his eyes was fleeting, then he turned his head and called Chu Mingyun who was standing not far away watching, "Master Chu, please teach me how to use the bow .”

Chu Mingyun walked up to his side, took a cursory glance, and then smiled, "Master Su's gesture is wrong, it's quite methodical."

Su Shiyu didn't answer, but lowered his voice and said, "When that Hun prince shoots arrows, be careful not to let him touch His Majesty's side."

"Move your left hand up a little more." Chu Mingyun looked down at his hand, and tightened the bowstring for him.

Su Shiyu didn't move his hands, and looked sideways at Chu Mingyun, "Master Chu?"

Chu Mingyun raised his eyes, met his gaze, and suddenly frowned and smiled, "Kiss me once, and I'll keep an eye out for you."

"..." Su Shiyu looked at him.

"Master Su," Chu Mingyun lowered his eyelashes, and said slowly, "I'd be embarrassed if you looked at me so bluntly."

"...Really?" Su Shiyu said.

Chu Mingyun sighed, somewhat confused: "Since you have this intention, then kissing twice is also okay."

Su Shiyu couldn't help laughing, feeling extremely helpless, "Master Chu..."

"Okay, I got it." Chu Mingyun looked at the smile lines on his lips, thought for a while, and suddenly grabbed Su Shiyu's wrist with one hand, and wrapped him in his arms from behind, "It's still so easy .”

Su Shiyu was startled, and was about to break free immediately.

"Don't move." Chu Mingyun took his hands, pressed him into his arms, tilted his head slightly to his ear and smiled lowly, and said slowly: "What are you hiding? So many people are still around, you Are you afraid that I will forcefully kiss you again?"

Su Shiyu hesitated to speak, but in the end he couldn't say anything.Fortunately, they stood in a remote place and did not attract too much attention, so a bit of unspeakable greed quietly grew, and he lowered his eyebrows and did not struggle to break free.

Chu Mingyun rested his chin on his shoulder, breath brushed against the side of his face, the little sandalwood in his smile made his scalp numb, so Chu Mingyun could only let Chu Mingyun hold his hand to straighten the longbow, and then let go. Drive him back to the side.

Su Shiyu couldn't help turning his head to look at Chu Mingyun, who had already returned to his original position, and met Su Shiyu's gaze when he raised his eyes.Chu Mingyun raised the corner of his mouth little by little to show a smile, raised his plain finger to touch his own lips, and blinked meaningfully at Su Shiyu.

"..." Su Shiyu pretended not to see it and moved his eyes to Li Yanzhen who was in the distance.

At this moment, the archery target had been set far away, and Yuwen Falcon was no longer polite when he stood in the arena. The movements of nocking the arrow and drawing the bow were smooth and neat, and the feathered arrow shot straight from a hundred steps away, hitting the bull's-eye.The Xiongnu mission stood up and applauded, and even Daxia's table couldn't help sighing a few times, saying that the prince's arrogance really had some capital.

Li Yanzhen looked at Su Shiyu more and more worriedly, and when he was about to speak, Su Shiyu raised his hand to stop him. He nodded to Li Yanzhen, turned and walked over.

Drawing the bow and setting the arrow, Su Shiyu tightened the string little by little, his shoulders and arms stretched out powerful lines, and his eyes were rare and undisguisedly sharp.

With a mistake between the fingers, a sharp arrow whizzed out, brushed past the previous arrow with the momentum of piercing the sky, and stably stabbed into the bull's-eye position, but after all, it was slightly deviated from Yuwen Falcon's arrow.

Su Shiyu turned around calmly and handed the bow to the attendant.

The faces of the Xiongnu mission had long been happy. Although the ministers of the Great Xia were regretful, they felt that it was not easy for the doctor, so they didn't say a word, and the audience was silent.

But Chu Mingyun was still staring at the target, and suddenly laughed lowly.

There was a cracking sound, and the arrow feather in the center broke off and fell to the grass all over the ground.

Yuwen Falcon's face suddenly turned ugly, Su Shiyu stopped beside him, and smiled faintly: "It's much easier than I expected."

"You...!" He suddenly turned his head to look, but Su Shiyu had already stepped back to his seat. Looking at the thin figure, he recalled what Chu Mingyun said in Su Shiyu's ear just now, and frowned fiercely Stop, the palms beside him clenched into fists.

The courtiers and family members were not allowed to attend the banquet, so Lu Qinghe waited outside early, waiting for the banquet to end.

She worked hard last night, read through the books and scripts, opened her eyes, and then realized that she couldn't help much.After thinking about it, Lu Qinghe decided to create some opportunities for the two of them to be alone. As the saying goes, there are more trysts—well, no matter what kind of tryst it is, it should be able to communicate more.

There is a peach forest in the back mountain, and the flowers are just in bloom.She invited Su Shiyu long before the banquet. Su Shiyu probably felt that his attitude last night was really rude, so he agreed without much excuse.As for Chu Mingyun... She didn't see this lord at all in the morning, so she had to wait here.

While thinking about it, there was a great sound of sending off, and the music stopped. Lu Qinghe caught sight of Chu Mingyun among the scattered people, and covered his face to avoid Lu Shi's sight, and greeted him, "Taiwei My lord stay behind!"

Chu Mingyun stopped and turned his head to look, "It's you again?"

"...It's me." Lu Qinghe put down his hands and laughed, "I don't know if Lord Taiwei is free..."

"No time." Chu Mingyun said.

"I just want to invite my lord to go to Houshan Taolin for a while, there will be no delay..."

"Don't go."

"...Why do you have to refuse so decisively, my lord?"

"Is there anything else?" Chu Mingyun looked at her casually.

Lu Qinghe said: "...No."

Seeing that Chu Mingyun was about to leave, she hurriedly said, "Master Su is at the back mountain!"

Chu Mingyun paused, looked back, and said with a half-smile, "Oh—?"

"Never dare to deceive adults." Lu Qinghe said sincerely.

Chu Mingyun turned around slowly, "What are you thinking?"

"Don't dare," Lu Qinghe shook his head, looked at Chu Mingyun's ambiguous expression, took a deep breath and said, "I only hope that I can help you a little bit."

Chu Mingyun looked at her silently, then smiled lightly and said, "You look like a person."

Lu Qinghe was surprised, "Who?"

Chu Mingyun withdrew his gaze and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Maybe it's not normal for women who have practiced martial arts for many years and love to wear red clothes."

Lu Qinghe was stunned. Before she could react, Chu Mingyun turned around and left. The wind behind him was rustling, and the flourishing branches shook down like rain.
