A concubine to be married dressed as a prince
Chapter 40 Heroes come out of youth
Twenty miles outside the city, there is a garrison camp.
There are [-] soldiers stationed in the barracks, including [-] elite soldiers, who are directly dispatched by the general of the town, Chu Mou, to guard the imperial city Shengyang.The other [-] troops were soldiers and horses under Chu Chengji before he became king, and they are stationed here for the time being.
Chu Mou and Chu Chengji are brothers from the same family, so the two groups of soldiers and horses get along fairly well. When they learned that Chu Chengji had come to the camp, Chu Mou's deputy general Han Nian hurried over to greet him.
"At the end of the day, I have met Prince Chu and Princess Hanyu." Han Nian was tall and slender, with a stern face. If he was not wearing armor, Jiang Yanqing would have believed him if he said he was a Jianghu swordsman.
Chu Chengji nodded slightly, "General Han is exempt."
Jiang Yanqing stood beside Chu Chengji, showing a decent smile.
"Thank you, my lord and concubine." Han Nian straightened up, "Your lord, go to the tent to rest for a while?"
"No, go to the Martial Arts Field." Chu Chengji walked in the direction of the Martial Arts Field with ease.After walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped, and turned his head to look at Jiang Yanqing inquiringly.
Jiang Yanqing shook his head with crooked eyebrows, "I also want to go to the Martial Arts Field to see, is there any training now?"
Han Nian nodded, "It's riding and archery training now."
Jiang Yanqing's eyes lit up, "Riding and archery? Is there a competition?"
"It's just an ordinary training." Han Nian said.
"Oh." Jiang Yanqing was a little disappointed, "If you don't have a lottery, how can you be motivated in training."
Han Nian was silent.Training is a daily routine in the military camp. It is to improve combat effectiveness, not to please anyone.
Jiang Yanqing saw the dissatisfaction in his eyes, knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, and touched his nose in embarrassment, "I'll just say it casually, you just treat me as..."
"Pass down the order. After half an hour, the riding and archery competition will be held." Chu Chengji looked at Jiang Yanqing, "You decide the rules and prizes."
Jiang Yanqing blinked.
God, why do you have the feeling of being spoiled by a faint king?Just because of his words, Chu Chengji decided to hold a riding and shooting competition.Jiang Yanqing held down his agitated chest, trying not to let himself show the face of a charming monarch, "I don't understand this, the rules are determined by the prince, and the lottery is only half of my monthly salary, okay?"
Han Nian's expression moved slightly.
Chu Chengji nodded, "Okay. Let's set up ten fixed targets and three moving targets. The fixed targets require horseback riding to shoot in bursts, and the moving targets shoot three arrows with one bow. Those who hit hearts in all of them will be rewarded by the concubine herself."
Han Nian sent an order, and Chu Chengji led Jiang Yanqing into the riding and shooting field of the martial arts arena.Jiang Yanqing had never seen the hitching posts, archery targets, catapults, etc. in the arena. He touched left and right to look, and it was extremely novel.
Chu Chengji took a few glances at his jumping figure, and began to arrange the process of the riding and shooting competition.
The ten war horses brought over from the stables were all of the same height, and the same bows and arrows were placed on the saddles.At the beginning of the race, there was a race track with various obstacles. After leaving the race track, there were ten fixed archery targets lined up 50 meters away on the left.Behind the fixed target, there are two bundled long wooden poles, a rope is pulled between the wooden poles, and three targets with a diameter of only about fifteen centimeters are strung on the rope.
After setting up the shooting range, Chu Chengji turned around and saw Jiang Yanqing struggling to draw a bow.
Jiang Yanqing gritted his teeth, and had exerted all his strength, but the bowstring was still motionless.He changed his posture several times, but he couldn't get the point. He wanted to use his feet to shoot arrows like little Nezha.
Suddenly a big palm covered the back of his hand, and Chu Chengji drew the bow together with him from behind in a gesture of holding him in his arms.
"This is a stone bow." Chu Chengji said in Jiang Yanqing's ear, "It's the strongest bow in the martial arts arena, and it has a good eye."
Chu Chengji let go of his hand, and an arrow pierced through the air with a "swoosh", as fast as a meteor lightning, and with a thousand ounces of force, it ruthlessly nailed into the center of the target.
Jiang Yanqing couldn't stand Chu Chengji talking in his ear like this, as if a tiny electric current passed through his heart, making it numb.A few soldiers around looked at this side curiously, he pushed Chu Chengji away, and ran to the archery target to see the arrow just shot.
Chu Chengji looked at his reddened ears with a smile in his eyes.
Jiang Yanqing was surprised to see that the tip of the arrow had completely sunk into the target, and even penetrated the target.He opened his eyes wide in disbelief and looked at Chu Chengji who was still standing in the distance, and then ran back, pulling Chu Chengji's arm to pinch the muscles on his arm.
"One more time, let me see." Jiang Yanqing handed the dead bow to Chu Chengji.
Chu Chengji drew his bow.
"Stop." Jiang Yanqing went forward to touch Chu Chengji's tense muscles, exclaiming, "Wow, it's so hard."
Chu Chengji turned his head and gave him a meaningful look.
"Cough." Standing not far away, Han Nian looked at the intimate posture of the two, wondering whether he should step forward or not.
Chu Chengji shot an arrow, put down his bow, and regained his stern expression.
"My lord, all the cavalry have been lined up, should we start now?"
Chu Chengji nodded, walked up to the stage of the martial arts arena, and glanced at the soldiers and horses lined up neatly below.
He was dressed in a silver armor and red robe, his eyes were like sinking water, his face was like a solid stone, and he exuded the aura of thousands of troops.
Jiang Yanqing stood under the platform, standing side by side with Han Nian, without any intention of going up.
Chu Chengji glanced sideways at Jiang Yanqing.
Jiang Yanqing also looked up at him, eyes full of admiration.
Han Nian said: "Princess, please go up."
Jiang Yanqing shook his head, "No more."
Han Nian saw that he didn't know the seriousness without relying on her status as a princess, so she respected him sincerely in her heart.
"My lord is waiting for you."
Jiang Yanqing looked at Chu Chengji again, and found that Chu Chengji's steady gaze had been on him, so he stepped up.
When he stood still, Chu Chengji said, "Today's riding and archery exam, groups of ten, free registration, the winner will be rewarded!"
The soldiers in the audience began to get excited.Chu Chengji paused and said again: "The reward was set by the concubine herself, and it is his half-month salary!"
How much is the half-monthly salary of Princess Yipin?For a large family, it is not too much, and it can cover the whole family's expenses for a month.But how much does a big family spend a month?Ordinary people can't spend two lifetimes!
This lottery is shockingly rich!
Everyone cheered, looking at Chu Chengji, who was seeing the princess for the first time, burst into admiration and cheers.
How could Jiang Yanqing not understand Chu Chengji's thoughts, he was beside Chu Chengji, and moved, "Thank you, my lord, for raising my popularity."
"It's the princess herself who is generous. This king thanked the princess for her compassion on behalf of the soldiers." Chu Chengji replied.
Jiang Yanqing lowered his head, with a smile that couldn't be concealed at the corner of his mouth.He stretched out his hand, and gently poked Chu Chengji's waist.
What about Mensao, how did you learn to tease him without changing your face this time?
Chu Chengji stood still and announced that the riding and archery competition would start immediately.
Ten war horses carrying soldiers rushed out from the race track in a vigorous posture, and arrows quickly turned into phantoms, and they kept screaming through the air.Han Nian was scoring points, and the surrounding soldiers cheered, and the atmosphere was enthusiastic.
Jiang Yanqing's eyes became hot and his blood boiled.A young teenager took the lead, and the moment he rushed out of the racetrack, he touched the longbow on the saddle, and fired several arrows in succession, all of which hit hearts.Finally, he drew three arrows, drew the bow fully, and shot towards the moving target.
The audience cheered and applauded.
Jiang Yanqing watched the operations of the previous waves of participating soldiers, and knew that this moving target was different from what he had imagined. Because it was small and light, the target moved due to the impact after being shot, so unless there was enough strength and speed, the arrow would be very slow. Hard to hit.
This young general actually hit all three arrows and became the only one who left the arrow on it.
This man took the lead without any suspense.
Han Nian announced loudly: "A total of one hundred and six people participated in the school examination today, and the one with the highest score is Li Changyong!"
The young general Li Changyong, who amazed the audience, came out and half-kneeled in front of Chu Chengji and Jiang Yanqing.
Jiang Yanqing was not used to others kneeling on him, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, only then did he see clearly the young general's immature face, and asked in surprise, "How old are you?"
"Back to the princess, the youngest is 17 years old!" Li Changyong replied loudly and proudly.
Jiang Yanqing looked at this young fresh meat, and couldn't help sighing, "Since ancient times, heroes have come out of youth!"
Li Changyong smiled embarrassedly, and said crisply: "The young one is no longer a boy, but an adult. Moreover, the young one is not a hero."
Jiang Yanqing liked his frank and cheerful personality very much, and couldn't help but praise him: "He is skilled and handsome. I don't bring any money with me. I will bring you the reward when I return home."
Li Changyong immediately knelt down again, "Xie Wangfei! Hehe, Wangfei is also good-looking, I have never seen such a good-looking person."
As soon as the words fell, Chu Chengji's face darkened immediately.
He touched his face unconsciously, and said with a smile, "I'm quite discerning."
Han Nian was startled inwardly, hurriedly reprimanded a few words, and told the crowd to disperse.
Jiang Yanqing was having fun, with a smile on his face all the time, but when he turned his head, he saw Chu Chengji's face as black as charcoal.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Yanqing wondered, "Didn't they behave well?"
Chu Chengji silently swept across the row of arrows on the moving target, "I was able to shoot through it when I was 15 years old."
Jiang Yanqing also looked at the target that fluttered from time to time due to the wind, and thought of how easily Chu Chengji pulled the bow that he couldn't pull at all just now, and said sincerely: "You are really amazing."
Chu Chengji withdrew his gaze and landed on Jiang Yanqing who was completely lamenting the wrong direction.
Jiang Yanqing, who couldn't hear the sound for a while, turned his head and met Chu Chengji's gaze.
"Pfft," Jiang Yanqing couldn't help laughing after reacting, he looked around, and the scattered people in the martial arts field didn't notice this side, so he stretched out his hand to grab Chu Chengji's hand, "15 years old , It really is a hero out of a boy."
His family's awkward prince, how can he even eat a child's jealousy.Jiang Yanqing was both funny and sweet in her heart.
Chu Chengji's eyes softened a little, and when he was about to speak, he heard a fast horse coming straight towards him.
"The decree has arrived!"
There are [-] soldiers stationed in the barracks, including [-] elite soldiers, who are directly dispatched by the general of the town, Chu Mou, to guard the imperial city Shengyang.The other [-] troops were soldiers and horses under Chu Chengji before he became king, and they are stationed here for the time being.
