Noble First Daughter-in-law

The two got on their horses and stood on the starting line.

At this time, the cold wind is even more biting, and there is even a little bit of fine snow foam mixed in the wind. It hits the person's face like cold needles piercing the skin, and the chill penetrates the bones.

But what was even colder was Lei Yu's heart.

She has never been afraid to compete in riding and archery. After all, she was born as a general, and her riding and archery skills are better than many men. Even among the Turks who are the best at riding and archery on this grassland, she has never been afraid.

But today, the art of riding and shooting that was used to protect oneself and one's family was used to decide the life or death of one's friends.

Is there anything more absurd than this in this world?
Lei Yu just felt like laughing, but couldn't. Then she turned to look at Shang Ruyi, who was sitting firmly on the horse and had been with him through life and death, and had a heart-to-heart relationship.Standing on the horse, facing the cold wind, she seemed to feel nothing. Her face was as calm as ever, and even her almost transparent eyes showed no emotion.

She said she could die, but she couldn't lose.

Do you really want to watch her die?
Thinking of this, Lei Yu stretched out his hand and touched the cold long bow hanging on the side of the saddle. At the same time, a fire flashed in front of his eyes, and one of Ashina Zari's men stood beside them holding a torch. , at this moment when thousands of people were watching, he waved the torch he held high downward——

"start!"

The two men immediately started riding, and the horse that was sitting down could no longer hold back and rushed out like an arrow from the string.

This was the first time for Shang Ruyi to ride a horse on the grassland in such cold weather and against such a biting wind. But soon, she found the familiar feeling in her memory - the cold wind was blowing like a knife. When the skin is exposed, it seems to be split inch by inch. After a while, the whole body is so cold that even the blood will be frozen into ice.

She remembered that when she was young, her father would wrap her in his thick clothes and lead her on horseback.

But at that time, she was the one crying and wanting to chase the moon.

As time passed, she no longer had the protection of her father, and what she wanted to pursue was no longer the illusory beauty. When the wind as sharp as a knife blew past her ears, it reminded her one after another.

A moment of life and death!
Thinking of this, she suddenly raised her spirits and looked up ahead. The burning wooden pillars came into view. The flames were blazing, as if they were going to reach the sky.

That may be the end of her life.

But even if she reaches the end, even if she dies, she will still be as vigorous as the flame!

Thinking of this, she grabbed the longbow hanging on one side of the saddle with her backhand, and pulled out an arrow from the quiver hanging on the other side of the saddle with her other hand. Although riding on the horse was bumpy, her legs He clamped hard on both sides of the horse's belly, but still managed to keep his body steady, and stringed the bow with both hands.

At the same time, Lei Yu, who was almost parallel to her, also placed an arrow on the long bow.

The two men drew their long bows at the same time, and the sharp arrow points were aimed at the burning wooden pillar in front.

At this moment, at the same time as the wind whistling in the ears and the thumping of horse hooves underfoot, there were also loud shouts from the crowds on both sides of the long road. The Turks kept shouting and shouting——

"Little princess, you can't lose!"

"Yes, we Turks cannot lose to this Han Chinese!"

"What are you talking about? It's better to let such a woman die!"

"Yes, kill her!"

Upon hearing these words, Lei Yu's hands, which were already as frozen as ice cubes, began to tremble unconsciously.

Do you really want to lose to Shang Ruyi and let her choose to die?

Can he really watch her choose death and not only not stop her, but also help her on this road?
Really?

At this moment, her thoughts were like a net, covering her whole body tightly, making it almost impossible to breathe. And in this moment of confusion, a cold light suddenly flew forward!

It’s Shang Ruyi!

She gritted her teeth, and when the tight bow string was stretched to the extreme, she suddenly let go of her hand just before she was about to break her fingertips. She felt a sudden burst of wind next to her ears, and then, a bolt of lightning came from His fingertips flew out.

in!
Shang Ruyi clenched his teeth, and even his heartbeat stopped at this moment.

The next moment, a clear and crisp sound of "grab" sounded, and the arrow hit the burning wooden pillar steadily!
And her heart seemed to have been hit hard by the flying arrow, and it suddenly beat hard, and then she resumed breathing, but at the same time, a faster and faster lightning struck. The arrow following her flew out with a whoosh and hit the burning wooden pillar!

It's Lei Yu's arrow!
The two arrows hit the target at the same time, one after the other, but Shang Ruyi could see clearly that her arrow shot at the top of the wooden pillar, almost missing the target by a hair, but Lei Yu's arrow hit the target squarely. The center of the wooden pillar is exactly the same!
Her heartbeat, which had finally recovered, was messed up again at this moment. She turned her head and glanced at Lei Yu.

"thunder--"

Shang Ruyi subconsciously wanted to say something, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he saw Lei Yu's eyes.

She couldn't even speak her words.

I saw Lei Yu's eyes calm and steady, as if they were condensed with frost, staring at the burning wooden pillar. Even if the fire was soaring to the sky, it could not melt the coldness in her eyes at all, and it seemed that it could not melt the coldness in her heart at this moment. The ice!
She wants to win against herself!No, she doesn't want to beat herself, she just wants to make herself lose!

Although she went against what she had just said to her, at this moment, Shang Ruyi felt a hot wave of heat surging in her heart, almost filling her eyes.

Lei Yu, still hasn’t changed.

Even if they have been separated for so long, even if they are in their own camps, even if she has experienced a lot of unspeakable suffering, Lei Yu is still Lei Yu.

She looks so strong, even sharp, but her heart is as soft as the spring breeze blowing by in the south of the Yangtze River.

She is still so gentle.

She wants to live on her own!

Shang Ruyi gritted her teeth and suppressed the sorrowful warmth in her heart. She looked up again and looked ahead. The cold wind quickly dried the tears in her eyes, and she could clearly see the burning wood again. The pillar was getting closer and closer to them.

At this moment, another sharp sound passed by my ears!

"what!"

Shang Ruyi let out a hurried cry and almost didn't react. Lei Yu, who had just shot an arrow, didn't stop. He pulled out the second arrow from the quiver with his backhand, strung the bow in one go, and everyone on both sides of the long road watched. Just when she started cheering for her accurate first arrow, another arrow flew out from her fingertips!

The second arrow hit again!
"it is good!"

There was another round of cheers from the crowd.

Moreover, not only the surrounding Turkic soldiers and people, but also Ashina Zari, who was sitting behind the low table, couldn't help but nod.

He couldn't say he was too satisfied with this daughter-in-law. After all, he got it in exchange for benefits, and she was also a Han. However, because his youngest son liked it, and his beloved concubine had a few blows from time to time, he accepted this daughter-in-law in a good-natured way. .But, as Shang Ruyi said, what people on the grassland value is strength, and those who have strength can win their admiration and favor - even Shang Ruohong, although he hated him to the core, but now Deep down in his heart, Ashina Tsari hated and respected him.

After all, not every Han Chinese can have the courage of Shang Ruohong to go deep into the Turks alone and walk on the edge of a knife.

It was under his nose that he completed the split of the Turks.

Among the two women in front of me, one is the daughter of Shang Ruohong, with a resolute temperament and unafraid in the face of danger; the other is an expert in riding and shooting, not inferior to men.

He did have some unspeakable affection for them in his heart.

If it is true that Shang Ruyi can also become the eldest son's daughter-in-law, at least she won't have to worry about the two sons' houses anymore.

Thinking like this, Ashina Zari's sharp eyes looked at Shang Ruyi again.

Lei Yu's second arrow also hit the target accurately. The arrow tip and the first arrow almost completely overlapped. The arrow body and arrow feathers were quickly swallowed up by the flames, but the sharp arrow tip shone even more in the firelight. Blazing light!

Shang Ruyi gritted her teeth and used her fingertips, which had been turned white and even numb and swollen by the bow string to shoot the first arrow, to draw the long bow again. The sharp arrow tip, which was as cold as ice, rested on her fingertips. Gritting his teeth, while the horse under his seat kept galloping forward, he tried hard to steady his arms, raised the tip of the arrow, and aimed it at the wooden pile in front of him that had burned into a small volcano.

At this moment, the cold light flickered in the flames, stinging her eyes like sharp thorns.

Shang Ruyi's fingertips trembled, and the arrow in his hand flew out!

The tip of the arrow was wrapped in the cold wind and suddenly brushed against Shang Ruyi's cheek, and an ominous premonition suddenly appeared in Shang Ruyi's heart.

Oops!

She opened her eyes wide and watched as the arrow was shot out, but barely missed the burning wooden pillar.

This arrow shot in the air!
Suddenly, there was a low cry from the surrounding crowd. Some people shouted happily, while others showed contempt. Lei Yu, who continued to gallop on the side, saw this arrow. There was also a look of confusion on his face.

However, without any hesitation, she moved her right hand back again and drew out the last arrow in the quiver!

After Shang Ruyi saw the arrow hit the air, a look of panic appeared on her face. However, this emotion only lingered on her for a moment, and was immediately blown away by the biting cold wind, and she sighed heavily. He took a breath and looked sideways, and saw Lei Yu let go of the reins, raised his arms high, and pulled the long bow into a full moon shape.

The arrow, once again shining with cold light, was aimed forward!

At the same time, Ashina Zhuxie slowly stood up from behind Ashina Zari.

His tall body still looked very dazzling among the crowd, but his eyes, which had always been expressionless and cold and stern, were now illuminated by flames and became hot.

He opened his eyes wide, stared at Lei Yu, and then looked at Shang Ruyi.

How about this last arrow! ?
