Rebirth as Princess Jin again

Halfway through the banquet, Concubine Chen proposed to let all the noble ladies perform a show.

Although everyone was unwilling, the imperial concubine and the empress had already spoken, so no one dared to go against her will.

Amul looked at the orioles and swallows in front of him. They all had their own unique looks, but when it came to performing their talents, they either played the piano or danced, which was quite boring.

Although Xia Zhaoguo's dances were beautiful, in his heart they were a bit less heroic than the women from Beiliao, and he yawned as he watched them.

Soon it was Wei Xuan's turn to take the stage. She walked to the center of the hall and bowed Yingying: "Your Majesty, I see that Your Highness the Crown Prince is not interested in these performances. Why don't we perform some other performances."

Concubine Chen also noticed that Amul was in a low mood and hurriedly said, "Miss Wei, do you have any suggestions?"

Wei Xuan stood up straight and said: "I heard that the folk customs in Northern Liao are open and women like to ride horses and shoot arrows. It is not easy to ride horses in this palace. How about a competition in archery?"

Amul suddenly became interested and immediately clapped his hands and said: "I heard that all the women in Xia Zhaoguo are locked up in their boudoir and not allowed to go out. How come there are still women who can shoot arrows?"

Wei Xuan glanced at Amul, then slightly curved the corners of her lips and bowed to him gracefully.

"My father and brother are in the horse business, so I am proficient in equestrian skills. My second uncle is stationed in Yancheng and knows a little bit about archery." Wei Xuan's words shook up his family background. Jing, now the queen is dead and the prince has fallen.

The Wei family only had so much capital for her to show off.

Amul heard that she was Wei Bang's niece, and his interest became even more intense. He immediately said, "Then let Gu Gu take a closer look at your archery skills."

The women in the audience looked at each other. Not many were good at archery. Although their families usually asked teachers to teach them how to ride and shoot, they only knew a little bit about it. Who dared to put their poor talents to the table for competition.

Seeing that no one came on stage, Wei Xuan walked up to Shen Luoluo: "I heard that Miss Shen has been fond of riding and shooting since she was a child. Do you dare to compete with me?"

Luoluo didn't want to go on stage, but Wei Xuan obviously had no intention of letting her go, and today's incident must be aimed at her.

Amul glanced at Luoluo. She was just a little girl who looked somewhat similar to Su Ying. He asked his father-in-law beside him: "What is the relationship between that woman and Princess Jin?"

The father-in-law replied respectfully: "She is the daughter of Shen Ruming, the governor of Kyoto. Shen Ruming is the direct uncle of Princess Jin."

When Concubine Chen saw this, she said to Shen Luoluo: "Since Miss Shen can do archery and His Royal Highness is interested, why not give it a try with Wei Xuan."

When Luoluo saw Concubine Chen calling her name, she didn't dare to offend the concubine.

Jiao Yang said from the side: "Go up and kill Wei Xuan's majesty!"

Luoluo had no choice but to go up to the stage, and soon the palace people brought up the archery targets and bows and arrows.

Wei Xuan stepped forward and picked up one of the bows and arrows, and looked at Luoluo provocatively: "The competition is as big as one. How about placing the target at the hundred-step position and winning two out of three games?"

Luoluo saw Wei Xuan's provocative thoughts, and the desire to win in her heart was aroused. She smiled slightly: "Okay!"

Wei Xuan was the first to pick up the bow and arrow, and he shot the arrow in one go. The arrow shot out steadily and hit near the red heart for the first time, causing everyone present to exclaim and applaud.

Compared to Wei Xuan, Luo Luo's movements were much slower. She drew her bow and aimed for a long time but still didn't see her shooting the arrow. Wei Xuan said sarcastically: "It doesn't matter, it's just a casual comparison. Miss Shen doesn't need to care so much. "

Before he finished speaking, Luo Luo let go of his hand, and the arrow made a hissing sound and hit the red heart.

Jiaoyang raised his voice and said, "Shen Luoluo, well done!"

Everyone nearby applauded, and Wei Xuan's face instantly turned pale, and she said angrily: "In the second game, you go first!"

Luoluo was not affected by her words at all. With her first experience, she picked up the second arrow and shot the red heart again without hesitation.

The pressure on Wei Xuan can be imagined. If she fails to hit the red heart this time, she will lose.

How could she give up easily? When everyone's eyes were on her, the corners of her lips curved slightly, and a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes.

Picking up the arrow next to him, the hand that was originally aiming at the target suddenly changed direction and shot towards Shen Luoluo.

There was a hint of evil in her eyebrows, and her arrow was aimed at Shen Luoluo's head. This time she wanted to kill her.

The people around him didn't expect this change, and when someone discovered it, they just exclaimed.

However, just as the arrow went out from Wei Xuan's hand, a figure behind Luo Luo quickly flashed in front of her, held Luo Luo in one hand, and grabbed the arrow with the other hand at lightning speed.

Shen Luoluo looked at the arrows that were so close, and her face turned pale with fright. She looked at Shen Yu beside her, and her body immediately softened.

Shen Yu grabbed the arrow with a little force and broke the arrow. Without even looking to the side, he threw the broken arrow out.

Wei Xuan did not expect that anyone could catch the arrow with his bare hands, nor did he expect that he could throw the arrow back to him. He was so frightened that his face turned pale and he backed away repeatedly.

However, the arrow was only inserted in her bun, and there was no arrowhead. Shen Yu swung the arrow with too much force, and the force caused it to knock Wei Xuan to the ground.

Wei Xuan screamed and fell to the ground. People around her looked at her but no one helped her.

Everyone looked at her with disdain. They didn't expect that Wei Xuan could be so arrogant without the queen in the Wei family.

It was so shameless to actually resort to such despicable methods and kill people in front of someone at a royal banquet.

Concubine Chen naturally did not expect Wei Xuan to be so bold, and immediately ordered the palace servants to help her down to rest. She said it was to rest, but in fact she would not be allowed to come to the banquet again.

Luoluo was frightened, and Jiaoyang looked on with fear, and immediately took Luoluo away from the banquet.

When Shen Yu left, he suddenly noticed a sharp and sinister gaze behind him. At first, his attention was all on Luoluo and he didn't notice it, but the feeling was very strong.

He followed the line of sight and saw Amul looking at him with a sinister look. It was just the first time he had seen the prince, so this look was a bit baffling.

Fengyang on the side observed this scene, walked to Amul's side and asked in a low voice: "Is His Highness the Prince interested in the lady of the Shen family's mother?"

Amul immediately frowned and said, "It seems that the princess is very familiar with that lady."

Fengyang said gently: "She is the cousin of Princess Jin and has a very good relationship with the princess. The young master beside her is her younger brother. He works under Prince Jin and is highly regarded by Prince Jin."

"Oh?" Amul took a sip from the wine glass in front of him and said with great interest, "Is he her biological brother?"
