Concubine, please respect yourself

Chapter 58 Broken Bamboo
Under the target platform, everyone held their breaths and focused their attention. They all opened their eyes and carefully looked at the flying arrow feather.

Lu Ziyu didn't care whether the arrow could hit or not, he was still fiddling with the bowstring in front of him, I don't know if he didn't care about this competition at all, or he already knew the outcome!
"Hoo!" The arrows flew like the wind.

Zhuqing's pupils constricted, seeing the bright silver color attacking her face.

Want to hide, want to escape.

But when she thought of her sister's life, her foot seemed to be locked with a thousand gold pendant, and she couldn't move even a single step.

While she was thinking about it, she suddenly felt a gust of cool wind passing over her head, which made her scalp tremble, and the numb chill penetrated into her limbs along her spine.

bingo.

Wei Xiaoxiang hit the first arrow!

The whole venue was noisy, three points more lively than the beating of gongs and drums.

Shouts of applause and applause filled Hongcangyuan.

"Miss Wei is indeed the daughter of a great general. This archery skill is very good." Nalan was a little excited, took the little hand of his sister beside him and chuckled and praised, but there was no joy in his brows.

Nalanwei's father is the commander of the military cavalry, and he is a colleague of the Wei family, so it is inevitable to use words to help him.

She also practiced martial arts since she was a child, so she is not proficient in archery, but she could see clearly that the arrow just missed, if it missed by two centimeters, it would come out with nothing.The current rhetoric is just to comfort everyone.

Those who can read look at the doorway, and those who don't know how to watch it are all lively.

I didn't hear anyone applauding, everyone followed suit.

Lu Ziyu raised his eyebrows, bent down to pick up the arrow, looked at the motionless white figure in the distance, and smiled lightly.

Jing Zhe looked at the pierced fruit on the ground, the white flesh turned out, the juice splashed on her dress.

She was not afraid at all, she still stood up proudly, but her palms gradually became sweaty.

Beside Zhuqing seemed to be dumbfounded, her complexion was grey, the sweat on her forehead flowed down her chin into her collar, and she stared blankly at her young lady with dull eyes.

Under the stage, everyone beamed with joy.

It's not that they are happy for her, Wei Xiaoxiang, it's just that they want to see foreigners being bullied by the aristocratic families in Beijing.

Wei Xiaoxiang narrowed her eyes, she already knew that she seemed to miss the arrow just now, and it was a blessing to be able to knock out the fruit, if she did it again, she wondered if she could still shoot correctly.

He was just frowning, and heard a woman's chuckle next to her ears: "You just asked me what to compare, I hesitated and glanced at the target, and you guessed that I would not ejaculate. In fact, Mrs. Wei guessed wrong, but this lady is wrong." It’s the one who doesn’t know anything but infantry.”

Lu Ziyu's beautiful eyes were looking forward, playing with the arrow feathers in his hand, smiling and looking at the Wei family's lady beside him.

Seeing Wei Xiaoxiang's body trembled, he seemed to suddenly understand, his eyes were full of anger, looking at the bright and delicate face in front of him, he gritted his teeth and said, "You plotted against me on purpose!"

Lu Ziyu didn't respond to her words, and raised his eyebrows sarcastically.

Draw the bow and nock the arrow.

The plain hands hooked the arrow feathers, and the phoenix eyes narrowed slightly.

Before everyone could react, they saw two white fingers loosen, and the arrow disappeared.

fast!
Much faster than Wei Xiaoxiang's arrow just now.

The momentum is like a broken bamboo, and the arrow is never in vain.

"rub!"

The fruit was shot backwards and was nailed to a wooden stake in the shooting range.

Actually also won?

Before everyone could react, they heard a muffled sound in their ears and raised their eyes to look.

The fruit on the top of Miss Lu's maidservant's head was shot straight into the stake behind her by an arrow, not to mention the flesh was intact, even the juice did not leak.

why?This young lady of the Lu family also has superb arrow skills?

Many nobles from rich families frowned, looking at Lu Ziyu with a somewhat unkind expression.

Su Wanwan opened her almond eyes lightly, as if she was interested in the arrow just now.

She is not completely sure that she can nail the fruit to the stake. If she hadn't practiced archery since she was a child, she would never have such skill.

"Hmph! It's just a fluke." Lin Caier pouted and muttered in a low voice, apparently not buying Lu Ziyu's limelight.

"Then you go hold the fruit and see if it's a fluke?" Su Wanwan turned her head and looked at Lin Cai'er gloomily, the disgust in her eyes was evident.

The lady next to Lin Cai'er gave her a gouged look, dragged her behind her, and angrily said, "What kind of occasion is this? What's the matter with you bastard?"

After being killed by Su Wanwan and scolded by her own lady, Lin Cai'er was so ashamed that she couldn't lift her head up again.

On the target platform, Wei Xiaoxiang felt even more terrified when he saw that the woman next to him could easily hit the bull's-eye.

I bent down to pick up an arrow, but I always felt that I couldn't use my arm.

Her Wei family is the head of military officers in Dongpu. If she loses to a foreigner who just entered Beijing today, she doesn't know how she will be scolded at the spine in the future.

She can't lose, she has to win.

Nocking the arrow, he was about to draw the string when he heard the woman chuckle in his ear and said, "Want to win? But can you win?"

Wei Xiaoxiang's hand that drew the bow froze, as if bewitched, and fell into deep thought.

"Can you win?"

"Can she win?"

She asked again and again, but still could not get an answer. If she had believed in herself before, but today she met this woman, she was afraid, afraid that her self-confidence over the years would be broken, just like the blue bone porcelain vase she broke when she was young.

The hand on the bow trembled slightly.

The bow and arrow left the string, like a paper kite with a broken string.

Zhu Qing still had the dull look, her eyes were looking in the direction of her young lady.

Even the new fruit on her head was placed by the maid just now.

She stared at the shining arrow for a while, not knowing what to think.

Li Feng was getting closer and came towards her.

Zhuqing shuddered, and the silver color became more and more clear in her pupils, as if it wanted to shoot through her head.

"Ah, no!"

A woman's terrified cry came from the target stage. It was Wei Xiaoxiang's maid Zhuqing.

Just look at Zhuqing kneeling softly on the ground, holding her head in her hands, shaking her head desperately, like a young animal being imprisoned.

Wei Xiaoxiang didn't expect to lose because of her maid in the end, how could she be convinced in this battle?

No!She hasn't lost yet, and the woman beside her hasn't shot an arrow yet.

"Don't worry about it, I won!"

Following the woman's delicate voice, Wei Xiaoxiang heard a buzzing sound.

He looked up to find the sound, only to see pale arrow feathers.

With a sound of "cracking", the apple on Jingzhe's head was shot by the arrow and rolled down to the edge of the green bamboo skirt.

The victory and defeat have been divided, and the Wei family has lost.

The entire Hongcangyuan was silent, as if unwilling to believe that the matter in front of him was true.

Wei Xiaoxiang was full of resentment, pointing at the woman beside him, he said, "Your Lu family is no longer a family of generals, so it must be a conspiracy to let your children learn martial arts."

Just wait for you!
Hearing her pressing questions, Lu Ziyu not only didn't rush to defend, but Ling Ran said in a cold voice: "My grandfather used to be the ever-victorious general of Dongying, and mentioning his prestige can make the enemy fearful. Loyal to the country, let me practice martial arts with my brothers since I was a child, my father said: As long as there is one person in the Lu family, we must not dishonor the glory of our ancestors, and we must not disappoint the kindness of the saint." After a pause, he said with righteous indignation: "If there is a war Attack, my Lu family will take the lead and do my best!"

Today's words were passed into the ears of the saint. The saint not only praised the Lu family for raising good children, but also said that the fourth lady of the Lu family would not give up to her husband.

No one from the big clan in Beijing can match such kindness.

But that's all for the time being.
