Cannon Fodder's Struggle History

Chapter 6 Returning the Pearl 6

After dinner, at three o'clock in the afternoon every day, there will be a riding and archery class. Each elder brother is equipped with five masters to teach the prince horse riding and archery.

Yong Xing looked secretly, each prince's training content was different, Eleventh Prince Yong Xing practiced archery with him today, Wen Da had already set up the target, and walked towards him holding a bow and arrows.

Although he is a professional teacher, after holding the bow to Yongxin, he took two steps back, as if he was watching Yongzheng's archery seriously, but from the look in his eyes, he could feel his disapproval towards Yongzheng.Brother Twelve is not favored at all, and he is dull. After practicing archery for a long time, he still can't hit the target.Thinking of this, I couldn't help but look enviously at the companions beside the fifth elder brother. It would be great if I could stay with the fifth elder brother.

This subtle difference in attitude was not noticed by the former Twelve Elder Brothers.It seems that the queen is not favored, and it is recognized in the entire palace, otherwise, how could this Adidas have such an attitude, lowering his eyes to hide his displeasure.

The curved bow in his hand was very smooth, the string was tightly stretched, and he weighed it. He searched for the memories belonging to Twelve Elder Brothers in his mind, opened his legs, turned sideways, and took out an arrow and put it on the arrow rest. , the right hand, the index finger, middle finger and ring finger clasp the strings and pull them apart.

Let go of distracting thoughts, focus on the target with both eyes, let go of the three fingers on the string, and the arrow on the arrow tower shot past like a shooting star, with a "swish", the arrow sank into the red heart of the target.

"Brother Twelfth is making rapid progress." Wen Da, who was guiding at the side, stood aside, looking away from Brother Fifth who was not far away, only to find that Yong Xi had already shot more than a dozen arrows, although he couldn't shoot arrows again and again. They all hit the red hearts, but they all hit the target. The round and fair little face was covered with sweat, but he became more and more focused. He praised in a hurry: "If this continues, Brother Twelve will be able to practice for a while longer. Tried shooting something alive."

"Oh." Yongzhen said lightly, completely unmoved, and asked lightly: "How many arrows did I shoot?"

"This..." The master of archery was at a loss for words, and dense cold sweat broke out on his forehead. When would this always naive [-]th elder brother think about it, he couldn't help but immediately knelt down and pleaded guilty: "[-]th elder brother, forgive me."

"There will be no next time." Yong Xing's tone was soft, seemingly gentle, but his hands kept moving. He pulled the string away with his right hand, and as soon as he let go of his fingers, the arrow made a "boom" sound, and it was firmly nailed to the center of the target. , the arrow feathers were still trembling slightly.He was just standing up, and besides, this person was only contemptuous in his attitude, and a beating was enough.

"Yes, the servant knows the servant knows." The arrow seemed to hit his heart, which made him startled. Only then did Wenda, who was kneeling on the ground, realize that the elder brother in front of him was not favored, and he was also the prince. However, it is still an easy task to crush small people like them to death.

It's okay to practice archery once or twice. Repeating the actions of nocking, drawing, and shooting is not an easy task. After using up the arrows in the two quiveres, Yong Xing already felt that his arms were a little too tight. It hurts, and my eyes are a little out of focus on the target.

"The twelfth brother is still not accurate enough when shooting arrows." The fifth elder brother suddenly assumed the posture of a big roc spreading its wings, jumped onto the wooden post next to Yongzheng, and looked down at Yongzheng: "It is better to ask for advice from Master with your heart. , Don't lose the face of the royal family."

"What the fifth brother said is that my younger brother is just learning archery, so I can't compare to the fifth brother. If there is something that my younger brother doesn't understand, I will definitely ask the fifth brother for advice." Yong Xin was not annoyed, and only smiled faintly, looking more and more immortal Zixiuyi, it seems that the fifth elder brother is here to save face, but unfortunately, he doesn't take that kind of trick: "Speaking of which, I haven't seen sixth brother for a long time. Sixth brother has an errand and is very busy. Otherwise, Ask the fifth brother for archery, and the sixth brother for knowledge."

The fifth elder brother's face was livid with a word of stimulation. He was obviously older than the sixth elder brother, and Qianlong loved him very much, but he always said that he was still young and his education was the most important thing, so why would he be willing to work for the sixth elder brother? He was only detained in the upper study to study.

"The twelfth brother is very eager to learn." Looking at Yongzhen with his eyes spitting fire, the fifth elder brother said coldly: "Tomorrow, the emperor Ama will teach homework, and I will see the performance of the twelfth brother, whether it is the same as now I can say it."

"My younger brother will not disappoint Fifth Brother." Yong Xin was not annoyed either, with a smile on his lips, calm and calm.

The other elder brothers looked at the two of them secretly, and were surprised again in their hearts. These twelve were really different from the past. They were able to chat and laugh happily with the fifth elder brother without losing the wind, and even made the fifth elder brother run out of anger.

Fifth elder brother, that's all. He was spoiled by Huang Ama so much that he didn't know how to restrain himself. Looking at the two of them now, who could win Huang Ama's favor more.

Qianlong had dinner and did not call his concubines to accompany him. Thinking of Yongzheng's performance in Kunning Palace, he couldn't help wanting to see his sons' riding and shooting skills on a whim.When they arrived at the school grounds, among a group of people, they were glued to Elder Brother Twelve at a glance, and couldn't take their eyes off him.

The master who once taught the prince reported that Twelve Elder Brothers were innately dull. After practicing for a long time, he could barely draw the bowstring, which made him furious. He also specially reprimanded Twelve Elder Brothers. At that time, what was Twelve’s expression like? of it.

Qianlong's heart suddenly felt restless, his eyes were imprinted with the tall and straight figure of the young man, his expression was solemn and dignified, and the movements of bowing and shooting arrows had the smell of flowing water, which was really pleasing to the eye.Unexpectedly, the people around Yongzhen dared to deceive him.

It seems that some people should change. Qianlong glanced coldly at the expert who was teaching Yongzheng, and came to a conclusion in his heart.

After shooting the last arrow, he let out a sigh of relief, and the young eunuchs who were waiting on the side hurriedly wiped away the sweat for Yongzheng with wet handkerchiefs, and brought hot tea again.

The warm tea slipped into his throat, and Yong Xin was somewhat dissatisfied with this thin body, but after practicing for a while, he couldn't bear it, and it seemed that he had to work hard to improve the quality of this body.

"Twelve riding and archery has improved." A deep voice sounded behind him, and Yong Xing was taken aback for a moment, wondering why the emperor was so elusive.

Everyone hurriedly knelt down to pay their respects, listening to Qianlong's words, they must have watched it for a while, maybe they also noticed the disagreement between the fifth elder brother and the twelfth elder brother, in this situation, it seemed that they liked the twelve elder brothers Some.

"Get up, Wu Shulai, and tell the imperial dining room to add two more dishes for the elder brothers." Qianlong looked at Yongzhen, his eyes lingered on the slender waist for a moment, frowned, and said lightly.

The elder brothers were a little excited, and the fifth elder brother hurriedly said: "Thank you Huang Ama for your concern. Huang Ama works hard on state affairs all day long, but still thinks about my son's health. I am really flattered. My son will definitely concentrate on it." Studying, loving brothers, will not disappoint Huang Ama's expectations."

A few words were spoken very earnestly, but Yong Xin felt so sore that his skin got goosebumps.Others have long been used to Fifth Elder Brother expressing his determination, loyalty and filial piety to Qianlong. Although they disagree in their hearts, they have to show excitement.

These words were obviously heard by Qianlong from the fifth elder brother often, but now he felt a little bored, his eyes glanced at the fifth elder brother inexplicably, and finally fell on Yongzheng, and said slowly: "It's all gone, forever Come with me."

Hearing Qianlong calling Yongzheng, the fifth elder brother was excited and hurriedly raised his head, only to find that Qianlong was looking at Twelve, feeling a sense of disappointment in his heart, Mingming Huang Ama valued himself most, and his face was very ugly Staring at Twelve, when did Twelve fall into Huang Ama's eyes?

"Yes." Yongzhen didn't know what Qianlong wanted him to do, so he obediently followed.

When he arrived at the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Qianlong found that the young man was obediently following behind him, against the light, his figure became more and more distressingly thin.

"Bring a bowl of almond and bird's nest soup." Qianlong ordered Wu Shu, thinking to himself, this child is so thin, I'd better keep an eye on it myself, and pass the decree later, the twelfth elder brother will have dinner with me in the future Bar.

Wu Shulai bowed his head to accept the order, but he knew in his heart that this is the elder brother who looked at the twelve princes differently. When he was still favored by the princess, he did not take care of him like this. If the twelve elder brothers married the elder brother in the future If you want to, then the heir may be uncertain.

It has to be said that Qianlong’s small kitchen was not built, and the bird’s nest was a top-quality swiftlet cup. The boiled bird’s nest soup was thick and fragrant, soft and smooth, and tasted very good.

Sipping the soup in small sips, the originally pink lips were coated with a layer of light water, which became more and more moist, and further down, there was a white and beautiful neck, and the small Adam's apple slid slightly with the movement of swallowing , Qianlong's eyes darkened, and suddenly felt that his throat was a little dry. He looked away as if to cover up, and took a sip of the tea on the small table.

After eating the almond and bird's nest soup, Yong Xin felt his stomach was warm, and couldn't help but licked his lips. His big moist eyes narrowed, revealing a satisfied smile, and Qianlong's heart beat a little bit disappointingly. Why is this kid so cute?

"From now on, Yongzheng will accompany me to eat in the Hall of Mental Cultivation." Qianlong patted Yongzheng's small head, and ordered Wu Shu to send Yongzheng to Kunning Palace with a loving face.

Yongzhen was a little baffled, Qianlong asked him to come to the Hall of Mental Cultivation just to drink a bowl of bird's nest soup?Still, it's not a bad feeling to be cared for.After slowly leaving the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Yongzhen walked towards Kunning Palace.

Seeing Fulkan's figure from a distance, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes. The two guards who were talking to Fulkan seemed familiar.

"Xiao Anzi, do you know those two guards?" Yang Yang raised his chin, and asked the little eunuch who was following him.

"Returning to the master, the slave will see that they are the guards of Kunning Palace, named Saiwei and Saiguang." Xiao Anzi had sharp eyes, looked carefully, and said affirmatively.

"The guards of the Kunning Palace?" There was a hint of sneer at the corner of Yongzhen's mouth. Watching the three talking for a while, Saiwei Saiguang's attitude towards Fulkang was respectful. After Fulkang left, Saiwei Saiguang They kept watching until they couldn't see Vulkan's back, then they turned and left.

It seems that in this Kunning Palace, anyone's hand can reach in.

"Emperor Niang, it's time to change the guards in the palace." Yongzhen put down the teacup, and made a light clashing sound, which made the queen startled.

"Really? Er Niang knows." The queen concealed her face, she was impatient, but she was not stupid, especially her son had recently become enlightened, and became more sensible and filial, which made her act more smoothly.

Soon, the queen found an excuse and changed some people. Qianlong learned about this, and after pondering for a while, he ordered Wu Shulai to replace all the guards in Kunning Palace with those he could trust.

When giving the order, what flashed in Qianlong's mind was Twelve's elegant and smiling face.
