Jia Xuan shrugged and did not reply.
Grand Preceptor He was helpless and could only follow Jia Xuan's gaze to the two women riding and shooting in the horse track.
It was similar to Jia Xuan's expectations.
There were about four or five arrows in front of him, but none of them hit the target.
However, Wang Ling had shot an arrow.
This caused many women to praise and feel that Cheng Fourth Lady was no match for Wang Ling at all. Wan Qiqi was even mocked by the female servants of Princess Yuchang. Wan Qiqi was so angry that she couldn't help but cheer for Cheng Fourth Lady.
"Cheng Shaoshang, it's not too late to admit defeat and get out of the capital.”
Wang Ling said coldly while riding and shooting.
However, Curly Hair didn't reply. She had now roughly found the principle of riding archery, and she was familiar with the wind direction. She also knew how to predict. After one or two more experiments, she would be able to hit the target with 100%.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Curly Hair's two arrows missed again, and the ladies in the pavilion booed. Curly Hair fell into deep thought again.
Wang Ling sneered and ignored Fourth Lady Cheng. She continued to shoot on horseback. In a short while, she had shot ten arrows, and three of them had been shot. Counting them, Wang Ling had already shot four arrows. This was already considered her extraordinary performance, and she was quite satisfied.
"Hurry up, Fourth Lady Cheng. If you want to admit defeat, just say it.”
Wang Ling sneered.
Princess Yuchang also smiled, and many of the women around her spoke up,
"Hurry up, Fourth Lady."
"Could it be that you didn't even manage to hit the target and don't dare to continue?”
"You didn't say that when we were gambling just now.”
"Fourth Lady, if you want to admit defeat, hurry up. Don't delay our time!”
“.....”
On the other side, Grand Preceptor He smiled and said,""General Jia Xuan is probably going to lose."
"Who knows who will win until the end?"
Jia Xuan smiled too.
The civil and military officials watched silently as everyone went at each other's throats. The old Emperor also stared curiously at the horse track.
It could be said that…
At this moment, all the higher-ups in the capital, all the womenfolk and young masters, had their eyes on the two women on the horse track.
If they lost, it would be too embarrassing.
At the next moment,
The wind and waves move,
The horse started to gallop. Cheng Fourth Lady was heroic and unrestrained. The longbow in her hand was pulled more than half full, but her wrist did not move at all. There was not the slightest tremble!
An arrow shot out.
Whoosh--
The arrow missed the target in the distance.
Cries of surprise rang out from the crowd. Many people lamented Cheng Fourth Lady's luck. They thought that Cheng Fourth Lady was lucky and had been hit by an arrow. Little did they know that Cheng Fourth Lady had already discovered the secret of riding archery.
Just as everyone was saying that Cheng Fourth Lady was lucky,
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Another three arrows, all of them hit!
Swoosh! Swoosh!
They all hit!
The horse ran back and forth on the horse field three times, and Cheng Fourth Lady's remaining arrows actually all hit the target. Moreover, the last few arrows almost hit the bullseye!
Other than the six arrows that missed at the beginning,
Cheng Fourth Lady had hit fourteen arrows!
Victory was already in their grasp. Even if all of Wang Ling's arrows hit, they could only tie with Cheng Fourth Lady.
"What? If you want to admit defeat, then quickly kneel down and apologize.”
Cheng Si Niangzi sneered and looked at Wang Ling, returning the favor.
"What are you so smug about!"
Wang Ling cursed and also spurred her horse forward, shooting arrows from the back of her horse.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Wang Ling's luck was better. Two of the five arrows hit the target.
However, it became more and more difficult for her to pull the bow, let alone hit the bullseye.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
After missing four arrows, Wang Ling's last arrow couldn't even reach fifty steps.
It was obvious.
Wang Ling is bound to fail.
Cheng Si Niangzi smiled and said," What? You still want to struggle? If I win, then you should kneel down and apologize. Hurry up, we're waiting to go back."”
Hearing this,
Wang Ling's expression was uncertain. The anger in her heart was at its peak, and it was directly overwhelmed by anger.
She raised the sword in her hand, pulled it full, and shot it at Cheng Shaoshang!
Whoosh--
The speed of the arrow was extremely fast!
The expressions of the onlookers instantly changed, but it was too late to stop them. Jia Xuan was even more furious and rushed towards Cheng Shaoshang.
Cheng Si Niangzi also did not expect Wang Ling to be so crazy and shoot arrows at her. She was momentarily flustered.
This kind of short-distance loss,
Even a first-rate expert would find it hard to dodge, let alone Cheng Fourth Lady.
Jia Xuan ran over from the other side of the horse track.
But it was too far away!
The horse farm was very large. Even if Jia Xuan had the cultivation of a great grandmaster, he could not teleport to Cheng Fourth Lady's side in a flash.
Because Wang Ling and Cheng Fourth Lady were too close!
Such a near loss,
The time was extremely short!
Fortunately, Jia Xuan had already left two secret guards by Cheng Fourth Lady's side. They finally came in handy at this time. The secret guards suddenly appeared from the shadows under the horses and waved their sabers. They flicked the arrows and instantly bounced them to the ground. Then, the secret guards turned into shadows and disappeared instantly.
Cheng Fourth Lady's life was temporarily not in danger, but the horse under her was frightened and directly galloped out. No matter how Cheng Fourth Lady pulled the reins, the horse did not stop. It was very dangerous!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The sound of air being torn sounded. Jia Xuan finally arrived. He leaped into the air and jumped onto the horse's back. He hugged Cheng Fourth Lady and took the reins from her hands.
"Phew-"
"Xilulu-"
Jia Xuan's legs exerted strength and his entire body fell. The frightened horse immediately stabilized and collapsed to the ground from the huge force.
"Curly, are you alright?"
Jia Xuan carried Curly Hair down from the horse's back and hurriedly asked. At the same time, he checked Cheng Fourth Lady's body. After discovering that Cheng Fourth Lady was fine, Jia Xuan heaved a sigh of relief.
"Wang Ling-"
"How dare you!"
Jia Xuan comforted Cheng Si Niangzi and then walked towards Wang Ling step by step.
He had seen it clearly just now.
Wang Ling's arrow was aimed at Fourth Lady Cheng. If it weren't for the secret guards guarding her, even he wouldn't have been able to save Fourth Lady Cheng!
Thinking of this,
The anger in Jia Xuan's heart could no longer be suppressed, and his eyes were filled with killing intent.
Rub--
Jia Xuan suddenly pulled out his saber, his eyes filled with cold killing intent. Cold killing intent surrounded him, and the warhorse under Wang Ling let out a whimper of fear.
" General Jia, you mustn't!!"
A few soldiers hurriedly stepped forward, wanting to stop Jia Xuan.
"Get lost!"
Jia Xuan punched, and a few soldiers were sent flying. He was as fast as the wind and arrived in front of Wang Ling in a few breaths. The saber in his hand emitted a cold aura, reflecting Wang Ling's face.
"Don't-don't kill me, I didn't mean it!”
"Your Majesty! Daddy, save me, save me!"
Wang Ling was really afraid.
She had been pampered since she was a child. She was born in the Second Rank Cheji General's residence, and her mother doted on her. She had been used to being arrogant and despotic with Princess Yuchang since she was a child. Even if she accidentally killed someone before, her parents had settled it and she was spared from prison. In fact, she was even fine.
And now,
She felt a deep sense of fear.
Wang Ling panicked. She regretted it!
