Zong Qiongyao's Haoxiang

This day is the day when the masters routinely test the riding and archery of the princes of the school. The flags are flying on the school field, the field is open, and the horses and archery targets are all ready.

All the elder brothers were also present. I heard that today the emperor will come here to test the school in person. Everyone is gearing up and ready to show off in front of Huang Ama.

Of course Yong Xing was an exception. Besides wanting to see if he had improved a bit in riding and shooting, he also wanted to try to see what level of skill he had reached now.

Ever since he mastered the method of entraining qi into the body, Yong Xin has made rapid progress, reaching the first level of refining qi in less than a month.

Therefore, the whole person has undergone a qualitative change.First of all, the five senses have been strengthened, and Yong Xin's sense of sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch have all become much sharper.Secondly, his strength has also increased. At the beginning, when Yongzheng couldn't control his strength, he changed all the things he could touch around him.What's more, Haoxiang often soaked him in various medicinal baths to exercise his muscles and bones, making his body more flexible.

Therefore, although Yong Xing has never practiced martial arts, but combined with his keen five senses and agility, he finally has a little bit of self-protection power.

However, apart from Hao Xiang, Yong Xin has never fought against outsiders at all, so he doesn't know how good his skills are. This exam is a small test.

The Aixinjueluo family learned the lesson that the previous dynasty did not pay attention to the cultivation of the crown prince, which led to the failure of the new monarch, and paid special attention to the cultivation of the prince. Therefore, the prince was required to go to the Shangshufang to learn the three languages ​​of Manchu, Han and Mongolia, and read the four books at the age of six. Five classics, and at the same time, under the guidance of the teacher, he must practice the art of riding and shooting diligently, so that all the princes cultivated are both civil and military.

As a result, the elder brothers on the school field are all tall and handsome teenagers (youths), all wearing neat and convenient riding clothes, making them even more handsome.

However, the arrival of Yongzheng still attracted people's attention.Because of practicing "Ruoshuijue", Yongzheng's skin has become whiter and more tender, and the face that resembles Queen Ulanara is more delicate, and the figure is also slender and straight. Wearing a riding suit is not to mention how good-looking up.

Eleven elder brother Yong Xing among the crowd also focused his eyes on Yong Xing. In the past, he always felt that Yong Xing had a round face and body, which was not good-looking at all, and he would always follow behind him like a piece of brown candy. not drop.But at this moment, he suddenly felt that Yongzheng had changed, completely different from the little fat man he remembered. Now Yongzheng is elegant and confident, as if his whole body is shining, constantly attracting his attention.

A certain mystery in Yongxing's heart trembled slightly, and he was forced to suppress it. His goal was the shining golden dragon chair. With imperial power, there was nothing he could not get.

Yong Xing is unaware of Yong Xing's ambition, he and Ke Shan are wandering around a pony with great interest.

Yong Xin fondled the smooth mane on the pony's neck and asked Ke Shan, "What kind of horse is this?"

"It is said that it is a Dawan horse. Last year, the Western Regions donated a pair of purebred horses to the emperor. This year, this pony was born." Keshan also loved this pony very much. The origin of its birth was clearly inquired about.

"Dawan horse?" Yong Xin scratched his head, he didn't know much about horses.

"It's a hard-earned horse!" Ke Shan looked at Yong Xing with the look of "you are so ignorant".

"... So this is a bloody horse?" Yong Xin glanced in surprise and was grazing. The beautiful pony just as tall as his waist turned out to be the legendary horsey horse?

"I heard that the emperor gave this little pony as a reward for this school examination. Whoever wins the first place, the emperor will reward him with this bloody horse." Keshan lowered his voice and said mysteriously.

"Huh?" Yongzhen followed Haoxiang to practice, and hadn't heard anything outside the window for a long time. At this moment, he raised his head and looked around. Sure enough, all the elder brothers glanced here from time to time, and they must all know about it.

The fifth elder brother was even more determined to win, and said to Huanzhu who was dressed in men's clothes next to him: "Little Yanzi, have you seen the horse beside Twelve?"

"That pony? What's the matter?" Little Swallow was not very interested in animals, so he glanced at them with little interest.

"Don't underestimate it, such a little pony is a national treasure in the Western Regions!" Forte was speechless at Little Swallow's ignorance, and couldn't help explaining.

"Couldn't this be the rumored sweat horse?" Ziwei exclaimed a little.

"Ziwei is still well-informed. It is said that during the Three Kingdoms period, Lu Bu's horse, the red rabbit horse, was this bloody horse." Fu Erkang deliberately showed off.

"So, this horse...is very valuable?" Little Yanzi finally became interested, staring at the little pony and said thoughtfully.

"It's not only valuable, it's just that money can't buy it, okay?" Forte said weakly.

"Then let's get this horse, a national treasure!" Little Yanzi's eyes were already glued to the pony, and he couldn't get it back. Looking at it was like seeing a golden mountain.

"Little Swallow, don't worry, if I get the first prize in our riding and archery in Huang Ama's exam, I can give it to you!" The fifth elder brother promised the little Swallow sternly.

"You can't eat salt (break your promise), I really want that horse now, if you don't win it back, hum!" Little Swallow threatened.

"Don't worry, don't worry, it will be fine." The fifth elder brother patted his chest to assure his promise.

After everyone finished exchanging their messages, the emperor finally arrived late.

The emperor was very satisfied when he saw all the elder brothers in riding outfits, showing their heroic appearance, and then looked at the fifth elder brother, Yong Qi, the little swallow next to him, his face turned black involuntarily.

"Little Yanzi, why are you here? And what's the matter with your outfit?" The emperor pointed to the eunuch's uniform on her, blowing his beard and staring angrily.

"Huang Ama, don't be angry, don't be angry, I've been imprisoned in Shufangzhai for so long, I'm suffocated to death, just let me out for a while, I promise I won't make trouble today!" Little Swallow swore by raising her hand .

"Huang Ama, little Yanzi really hasn't come out for a long time, please spare her this time, we will watch her." The fifth elder brother begged from the side.

"Don't make an example, otherwise I will punish you to spend half a year behind closed doors in Shufang Zhai next time." The emperor was in a good mood today, and he didn't want to do anything to her, so he just let it go.

"This time I will test your riding and archery in person. Let me take a good look at your skills. Whoever performs the best will reward him with this hard-earned horse!" The little pony said boldly.

"My sons and servants will surely live up to Huang Ama's expectations!" All elder brothers said in unison.

"Your servants must do their best!" All elder brothers and attendants also responded in unison.

"Good!" the emperor said happily.

Riding and archery is an activity on horseback. As the name suggests, it means riding on a horse and drawing a bow and archery.Riding archery is much more difficult than on flat ground. The rule is that the contestants take the bow and draw the arrow and shoot the arrow at the same time as the horse starts to run.Contestants need to carry a quiver on their backs, each with nine arrows in the quiver, and shoot them in three rounds.

This requires the contestants not only to take their hands off the reins and control the horse with their legs, but also to aim at the bull's-eye and draw the bow while they are constantly moving. The difficulty can be imagined.

Everyone mounted their horses with their quiver on their backs, lined up in the arena, and an expert gave the order.

With an order from Wenda, more than a dozen horses rushed out together.

"Yongqi, shoot arrows! Come on! Come on! Come on!" Little Swallow yelled outside the fence.

The emperor glanced at her, then coughed, and the little swallow was stopped by Ziwei beside her.

Without the noise of the little swallow, the emperor concentrated on watching the game.

The fifth elder brother is indeed the emperor's favorite candidate for the crown prince. Seeing that he took the arrow and shot the arrow smoothly and smoothly, the emperor wanted to applaud him. Unfortunately, the angle was not selected properly, and the arrow barely hit the target and shot.

Unexpectedly, at this time, a later arrow chased the fifth prince's arrow, and hit the target lightly with only a slight deviation.

"It's the arrow of Brother Twelve!" Jin Da, who was not far from the target, quickly read out the name marked on the arrow.

"Oh? Twelve shots?" the emperor asked in surprise.

"Back to the emperor, it was the arrow shot by Elder Brother Twelve." The guards around him went to confirm it before reporting back.

"En." The emperor searched for Twelve's figure in the field, but he couldn't see anyone, so he couldn't help asking the guards beside him, "Where is Elder Twelve?"

"Go back to the emperor, there it is." The guard pointed to a young man with his lips pursed and bowing his bow and arrow not far away.

"Twelve?" The emperor looked at the boy suspiciously. This boy was completely different from the Twelve he knew.The appearance is different, the temperament is different, and the whole thing is different. If it weren't for seeing the face that resembled Ulanara, the emperor had every reason to believe that the current twelve princes had been transferred.

"It turns out that Twelve has grown so big!" The emperor sighed, as if he hadn't seen Twelve for several years. In fact, they met each other in the Empress Dowager's Compassion Palace a month ago, but the emperor had never seen Twelve directly. Twelve, so when I suddenly noticed him, I realized that Twelve had changed a lot.

It is said that women's colleges have changed eighteen times, so it turns out that men's colleges have also changed eighteen times. The emperor was amazed in his heart, not to mention, it has become more and more beautiful. Ulanara's annoying face on his face is not at all. Not annoying.

Yong Xin didn't know that the emperor had noticed him. He was now immersed in the surprise brought by the results of his hard work during this period of time. He mobilized his powerful strength, flexible reach, and keen five senses to catch the direction of the wind when riding and shooting. , the upper body moves with the horse under the body, the sight is focused on the bull's-eye, and the arrow is aimed and shot-one hit!Except for the first time, which was not smooth, the next few arrows all hit the bull's-eye.

"Good!" The emperor applauded on the stage.

Yong Xin heard it, glanced at the emperor's stand, and then rode away.

This was the first time that the emperor looked at him squarely, but he was no longer that child who yearned for the attention of Emperor Amadin. Now, to him, the emperor's attention was not uncommon at all.
