As soon as Qin Ruozhen finished speaking, Shen Hui frowned deeply, but seeing her face, he turned around and clasped his hands and said, "I dare not refuse my lady's invitation. It's just that my archery skills are clumsy. I'm really afraid I'll make you laugh. I hope my lady will forgive me."

Qin Ruozhen smiled casually, looked back, and stood behind him a young waiter of sixteen or seventeen, with handsome eyebrows and a cold expression, and cupped his hands at Rong Heran.

Rong Yu turned his back, thinking that Qin Ruozhen had been dormant for a long time, and unexpectedly provoked him today.Not wanting to displease Shen Hui, he took advantage of this gap to wink at the waiter who was about to cull the pigeon, and the other party understood and nodded slightly.

After half a stick of incense, the deacon of the imperial horse inspector came forward and reported that he was ready, and divided the arrows and crossbows used for shooting willows into Rong and He Na's servants. For pigeons, the special featherless horizontal cluster arrows are used at this time.

With an arrow and crossbow in hand, ask the waiter to start first.He didn't refuse, he stepped down from the high platform and stood in the middle of the field, as if to show off his exquisite archery skills, he stepped back a few more steps before pulling the bow into a full moon with all his strength.Put on a cluster of arrows, aim at the gourd with the pigeon, and then shoot an arrow, which hits the center of the gourd immediately.

The gourd fell to the ground and split open, and the pigeon inside flew out immediately.Because there are bells on the legs of the pigeons, after flying into the sky, the legs vibrate, and the clear and sweet pigeon bells sounded in the sky above the willow shooting field.

Everyone applauded loudly when they saw this, the waiter turned around slowly, raised his eyebrows, and looked at Rong Yu with a cold and arrogant attitude.

Rong Yu walked down the high platform, chose a place closer to the target to stand still, then drew the bow, released the arrow slightly, and the gourd fell to the ground slowly, with only a crack at first, and the pigeon struggled several times Just broke through the crack.

The pigeon was originally tampered with by the Imperial Horse Supervisor, probably with some minor injuries on its wings, no matter how much it flapped its wings, it couldn't fly too high, but the vigorous kicking process made the bell ring loudly, but it didn't feel crisp, it just let it go. People feel confused.

Rong Yu turned his head back, bowed to Qin Ruozhen and said, "The people trained by the empress are skilled, and the minister lost."

However, before he raised his head, Qin Ruozhen said coldly, "I should be thanking the factory official for letting me go. You deliberately missed the shot and picked a bird that couldn't fly. I just thought I couldn't see it? This is what the factory minister did." , Don’t you look down on me too much?”

Rong He lowered his eyes, suppressed his hesitation in his heart, and answered her calmly, "Your Majesty misunderstood, it's because I'm not good at learning, and I said long ago that I shouldn't make a fool of myself in front of the holy driver."

"Whether you should or not, it's not up to you." Qin Ruozhen sneered, "Let's forget about the talent contest just now. Since the factory officials don't think highly of people from my palace, why don't I compete with you myself."

Qin Ruozhen was born in a family, unlike ordinary women, she also learned some riding and archery when she was young, but she hadn't practiced it for many years, not to mention others, even Shen Hui, and she had never seen what she looked like holding a bow and arrow.

Rong Yu's heart sank, it turned out that the last trick was this, presumably Qin Ruozhen would say whether he won or lost.It would be fine if it was a joke, but in front of so many people, she blatantly said this, even if she didn't answer it, she had to answer it.

From the corner of the eye, he caught a glimpse of Shen Huiyu sitting up, and Rong Yu hurriedly smiled and said, "I have tried my best, but my mother is not as clumsy as I am, and I will find someone who is a match for me to compete."

Qin Ruozhen didn't seem to expect him to evade, her face became more and more arrogant, and she suddenly made a move that shocked everyone present. She suddenly grabbed the bow and arrow from the waiter beside her, raised it up and pointed it at Rong He, gritted her teeth and said , "What if I want to compete with you? When I was young, I learned riding and archery with Zeng and the chief soldier of the Huben Battalion for three years. Although I haven't practiced for a long time, after aiming this arrow, I will not miss it."

There was an uproar in the audience, and there was even the sound of cups falling to the ground. No one thought that the queen would attack at this time.Rong Yu hurriedly looked at the throne, Shen Hui was already leaning forward, his hands were tightly grasping the armrests, his eyes were like torches, and he stared fiercely at Qin Ruozhen.

But at this moment, even Shen Hui can't do anything, because the cluster of arrows is aimed at Rong Yu's eyebrows.

Rong Yu secretly inhaled, suppressed the surging anger in his heart, turned his head and signaled the waiter standing beside him to break off a day lily.Putting the day lily on the crown, and looking at Qin Ruozhen, he smiled and said, "Since your Majesty's arrow is worthwhile, forgive me for being bold, please give me a prize to shoot this day lily. On the Mid-Autumn Festival, I shot the day lily. Flowers, to show that the empress prays for the country, and bless the people to forget their worries and worry, and to be safe and healthy."

There was silence on and off the stage. It took half a day for someone to react and applaud first. The voice was alone and seemed empty. It was only when some followers clapped their hands together that the atmosphere changed from embarrassment to liveliness.

Qin Ruozhen raised a sneer, and replied loudly, "Okay! I will help you." He aimed again, but the arrow tip was always swaying between the forehead and eyebrows, completely ignoring the standing lily on the crown.

The people on the throne couldn't bear it any longer, they stood up suddenly, and glared at Qin Ruozhen. Seeing the emperor like this, everyone in the audience dared not sit still, and stood up in a hurry.Even so, during this moment of effort, everyone's eyes were always focused on Qin Ruozhen's so-called cluster of arrows.

Rong Yu knew that she had hated and resented him for a long time, and with just one arrow, his life could end in her hands.But if he dared to act like this, he was betting that Qin Ruozhen was still afraid of death. If he was really impatient with life, why wait until today to express this resentment, in front of everyone, clearly targeting himself, but in fact the purpose Shen Hui was infuriated.

Thinking about it this way, Rong Yu straightened his body and raised his head to meet her, just waiting for her to shoot the arrow in his hand.

Qin Ruozhen wavered for a moment, and finally aimed at her bullseye.Seeing her clasp her hands, Rong Yu immediately closed his eyes, but in an instant, accompanied by the sound of the sharp wind, the day lily was shot off, and even the crown on his head was swept to the ground by the arrow wind.

Seeing the result, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and there was thunderous applause in the field.The clever one immediately raised his glass to congratulate the emperor and the empress, and everyone stood up and knelt down, and there was another congratulatory speech to wish the country a prosperous life forever and the emperor live forever.

Rong He lifted his clothes, knelt down with the crowd, picked up his crown and hat and adjusted his appearance, then raised his eyes and looked at the person still standing in front of the throne.Shen Hui also stared at him blankly, his eyes were full of concern and worry, and it took a long time for him to gradually reveal a meaningful smile.

The four eyes met, and Rong Yu knew very clearly that the soft waves in Shen Hui's eyes were for him, and that look seemed to have reached the bottom of his heart.

Staring at each other, the people and things around them faded away, and the only thing left in the world was the two of them.

After the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, the Kunning Palace has returned to peace, Qin Ruozhen stays at home, and Rong and Seldom can meet her in the palace.Even so, Shen Hui still had to take him with him wherever he went, wishing he could never leave him.Such carefulness made Rong Yu vaguely remember that many years ago, after he was almost killed by Qin Wang's mother and son in Chonghua Palace, Shen Hui, who was still the Prince of the Supervisory Kingdom at that time, ordered himself not to leave his sight for half a step.

Thinking of the past, he couldn't help feeling a little bit sad, Shen Hui had been determined to protect him since that time.Thinking about it this way, there was a burst of joy in my heart, and a smile naturally appeared on my face.

Shen Hui also remembered, but he was not without worries, "Don't underestimate the hatred of women, in front of me and all the officials, she has the ability to point arrows at you, what if she troubles you secretly? , she is the master after all, how are you going to deal with it?"

Not wanting to be his trouble, Rong Yuwen reassured him, "I won't fight with her, as long as I can bear it, I will bear it. I am not the little servant who needed your protection for everything in the past. When he grows up, the emperor doesn't have to worry about his ministers."

"I know you are smart and able to protect yourself well. You were so clever that day. After what you said, if she didn't shoot the day lily, she would be suspected of cursing the fate of the country. After all, she still has scruples. Prosperity and wealth."

He pouted slightly, still with a bit of regret, "I was a little scared that day. I haven't been afraid for so many years. At that time, I finally knew that if I never saw you again, it would be a terrible thing. What a terrible thing, in such an empty and lonely palace, who should accompany me to make me feel at ease?"

Fortunately, Rong Yu said frankly that Shen Hui didn't need to worry too much, and Qin Ruozhen did not make any changes. After a long time, Shen Hui finally let go of his full vigilance, and occasionally allowed him to leave his side to handle some palace affairs by himself.

In the ninth year of Tianshou, the winter came very early. As soon as October entered, the capital seemed to have ushered in three or nine days.The crown prince was always afraid of the cold, and the second prince was still young. Although it was not yet the imperial furnace day, he asked Shen Hui for instructions, and immediately ordered the officials and supervisors to withdraw the silver bone charcoal in advance, and then distribute it according to the expenses of the palace masters.

This day, there was nothing wrong with the news, so I came to chat with Rong Yu, and the conversation revealed that Kunning Palace seemed not very satisfied with the allocation of charcoal for them.

Rong Yu heard that he was tempting, so he simply said bluntly, "The cases where I assign people are all in accordance with the rules, and naturally I will not do anything to embezzle Kunning Palace."

Chuanxi smiled for a while, "I know this, who are you? If you want to talk about the whole palace, there is no one more kind than you. Even if you really look down on that person, you don't even bother to do such a thing." Said Embarrassment flashed across his face, and he lowered his voice and said, "You don't know, it's not like cold weather in that palace now, people's hearts are cold, and the charcoal is naturally not enough for Fen Li."

Rong He remained silent after hearing this, but Chuanxi couldn't restrain his desire to express, and he couldn't hide his excitement in his spirit, "I heard someone say that the boy who made gestures with you at the Mid-Autumn Festival that day was Kun It's just a pity that Ning Gong is a capable celebrity, but he was born quite satisfactory, and he happened to fall into the favor of that person, even if he shows his loyalty, he will be in limbo for the rest of his life."

Seeing for a while and not answering, Chuanxi sighed and said, "You don't know everything, right? You don't know what's going on in Kunning Palace these days?"

Rong Yu's face was indifferent, "Since I am the master of the palace, I just live my own life behind closed doors. I can't afford to inquire and spy on other people's lives."

"No wonder, I'm the only one who has the guts to tell you." Chuanxi laughed softly, with a smug face, "She is supposed to be a dirty palace, but she has too many lice and doesn't itch. Anyway, if you don't plan to live in peace, you are naturally confident."

After finishing speaking, she laughed even more, and looked at Rong Yu, "I tell you, she really wants to open up, knowing that her fate with Long Live Lord is at the end. Hey, I also heard that she can let go of her words, She doesn't expect the emperor to still care, and she has figured it out, and is ready to hand over her husband to others."

The listener was interested in this, and Rong Yu pretended to be puzzled. Looking at Chuanxi, the latter shook his head and smiled intriguingly, "I don't understand? Then I can say it. The original words are that I decided to give my husband to you. Anyway, she I can't compete with someone who serves me close all day long."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was already shuddered by Rong Yu's cold stare, and waved his hands again and again, saying, "I didn't make this up, nor was I talking nonsense, it was really the master and empress herself. The original words."

Rong and sneered, reckoning that Chuanxi had probably beautified a bit, the original words would not sound so nice, from Qin Ruozhen's mouth, he would only call him an eunuch.It can be seen that she really has no scruples, but she doesn't know what kind of plan she has in mind if she continues to act like this.

Rong Yuhan warned Chuanxi in a tone, never to spread such words again, especially not to let the emperor know, otherwise everything will be on him.

Chuan Xiyuan guessed that he didn't often act flirtatious, but he didn't expect that Shen Xia's face would also make one's heart palpitate, so he quickly swore that he wouldn't do it, and promised for half a day before he went away in embarrassment.

It's just that Qin Ruozhen's words made Rong Yu smell the low and depressing breath before the storm, and he began to have a faint premonition in his heart.
