The hunt officially began. Dong Fang Yu was the first to ride her horse into the forest, and everyone followed behind her.
Dongfang Yu was also in the middle of the team today. However, before they left, Chu Ge had repeatedly instructed Dongfang Yu not to show his talent and let Dongfang Yan notice it. It was still too early.
Dongfang Yu admired Chu Ge the most. Over the years, Chu Ge had helped him a lot and even found a special teacher to assist him. However, Dongfang Yu was also very hardworking. In just a few years, he had already become a talent.
Dong Fang Yu, the princes, and the generals shuttled through the forest. Dong Fang Yu was the first to shoot a deer, winning a good start.
After that, Dong Fang Yu said," I'm getting old. I won't play with you today. Whoever can shoot the biggest prey in the time it takes for an incense stick to burn will be heavily rewarded by me."”Thus, Dong Fang Yu rode her horse and returned home with the spoils of war.
When the rest of the people heard the Emperor's words, they were all very excited and prepared to go all out. Everyone wanted to be rewarded, and Dongfang Yan was no exception. As the Crown Prince, he naturally wanted to be the first. Therefore, when Dongfang Yan heard Dongfang Yu's words, he immediately turned around to look for prey.
It was not surprising that men were very competitive, and Dongfang Yu was no exception. However, Chu Ge had instructed Dongfang Yu not to show off her strength. Therefore, she prepared to hunt some wild chickens, wild rabbits, and so on to practice her archery skills.
As they walked, Dongfang Yu suddenly saw a wolf attacking two injured deer. One was big and the other was small. There was an older deer beside the deer. It seemed to be the deer's mother. The deer's mother was fighting the wolf to protect the deer.
Seeing that the wolf had pounced on the mother of the deer, the mother of the deer was no match for the wolf. Dongfang Yu subconsciously shot at the wolf.
At this moment, an arrow was shot at the wolf from the left side of Dongfang Yu. The wolf was hit by several arrows and lay motionless on the ground. The two deer were saved.
Dongfang Yu looked to his left and realized that Dongfang Yan was also looking at him. Actually, Dongfang Yan had already noticed the wolf attacking the two deer before Dongfang Yu. He was looking for an opportunity to shoot the wolf to death.
At this moment, Dongfang Yu arrived, and the two of them shot the wolf at the same time. Dongfang Yan couldn't believe his eyes for a moment. Among all the princes, Dongfang Yu, who was the most useless and often bullied, had shot the wolf at the same time as him.
Dongfang Yan thought that Dongfang Yu, who knew nothing, could actually shoot his prey. He then rode his horse towards Dongfang Yu and said," Sixth brother's swordsmanship is really impressive now. It seems that I have underestimated your strength before. Your strength has improved by leaps and bounds."”
When Dongfang Yu heard this, he cried out in his heart. Not good, but it was already too late. Dongfang Yu hurriedly explained,"Crown Prince, you flatter me. Today was purely a coincidence. I saw a wolf attacking a deer just now. I was anxious and shot the wolf.”
"Oh? Was that so? I don't think so." Dongfang Yan said as he sized up Dongfang Yu.
"The time for an incense stick to burn has passed. Please return to the camp and we will begin counting.”Qi Feng shouted. This year, Emperor Dongfang Yu had ordered Qi Feng to be in charge of counting.
"Let's go, sixth brother. It's time. Today, it looks like sixth brother will be the master archer of the year.”Dongfang Yan said.
"Imperial brother is too kind to me. It was imperial brother's arrow that killed the wolf. My arrow didn't hit a vital part.”Dongfang Yu looked at Dongfang Yan and said.
When they returned to the camp, Qi Feng led his men to start counting. An hour later, Qi Feng said,""Reporting to the emperor, today's biggest prey is none other than this wolf.”
"Oh? Was that so? Whose prey is this wolf?" Dong Fang Yu asked curiously.
"Replying to the emperor, it was the crown prince and the sixth prince who shot it at the same time.”Qi Feng looked at the Emperor and said.
"Who is it?" Dong Fang Yu thought she had heard wrongly. The useless Sixth Prince Dong Fang Yu had shot the deer together with the Crown Prince.
Not only did the Emperor Dongfang Yu not dare to believe it, but the other princes and ministers were also discussing it. In everyone's hearts, Dongfang Yu was synonymous with stupidity. He could not learn anything and could not even lift a sword. How could he shoot a wolf?
Everyone looked at Dongfang Yu incredulously. Dongfang Yu thought, Oh no, I'm so close to being shameless. However, it's too late to say anything now. I can only brace myself and face it.
Chu Ge was also present. When Chu Ge heard Dongfang Yu's name, he was very puzzled. He had repeatedly told Dongfang Yu that he should not make such a low-level mistake. There must be a reason.
Chu Ge only hoped that everyone would not focus on Dongfang Yu because of this matter. This way, Dongfang Yu would have a difficult time in the future.
"Dongfang Yu, did you really shoot this wolf?”Dongfang Yu looked at Dongfang Yu and asked.
"Father, father, your son, your son, I don't know why I shot the wolf. Your son only saw the wolf attacking the two young deer. Your son was anxious and I don't know why I shot it.
I guess your son's luck is better.”Dongfang Yu said nervously. In fact, this was the state Dongfang Yu was in a few years ago. The current Dongfang Yu was no longer the person who was afraid of causing trouble.
When Dongfang Yu heard Dongfang Yu's words, she immediately believed him. However, when she heard Dongfang Yu's words, Dongfang Yu shook her head. She spoke in a muffled and stuttering manner. It was difficult for her to speak elegantly.
Hearing Dongfang Yu's explanation, some of the princes laughed out loud in public. Indeed, he didn't disappoint everyone. Dongfang Yu was still looked down upon.
For the sake of face and fairness, Emperor Dongfang Yu said to Dongfang Yan and Dongfang Yu,""To be fair, each of you will shoot five arrows. Whoever hits the most bullseye will be the sharpshooter of the year.”
Dongfang Yan said to Dongfang Yu confidently,""Yes, sir!"
Therefore, he walked to Dongfang Yu with a bow and said,"Sixth brother, do you want to go first, or should I?”
"Royal brother, please." Dongfang Yu said with a trembling voice.
Therefore, after a short while, all five arrows hit the bullseye. Everyone applauded.
It was Dongfang Yu's turn. He pulled his bow and arrow with a trembling hand. The first arrow flew out and missed the target. The people underground were secretly laughing.
Just as Dongfang Yu was about to draw the second arrow. Dong Fang Yu said impatiently,""Stop, stop, stop. Don't shoot anymore. I'm embarrassed for you. I can't even pull the bow and arrow. I really don't know how you shot just now.”#
