The wealthy tycoon wants to be the white moonlight of the little village girl

The scene was suddenly filled with noise, and those princes and sons of noble families were all rubbing their hands with delight, determined to win the first place in this competition. This way, they would not only receive the prince's reward, but more importantly, they would be able to shine in front of all the famous ladies and win their hearts!

This horseback archery competition was actually a social event among dignitaries. Almost all the famous officials who were qualified to participate came. In addition to expanding their social network, they also wanted to take the opportunity to find a suitable husband or daughter-in-law for their children.

Some official families who were not eligible to attend, such as Li Shilang and Zhao Hanlin, also used their connections to be brought here, just to bring their daughters out to see the world.

After all the princes and nobles changed into their riding and archery outfits, following an order from the chief historian, the exciting sounds of drums and trumpets were heard from the paddock!

The guards of the palace opened the cages and released many pheasants, hares, roe deer, elk and other prey. The animals were frightened by the shouting and neighing of horses and fled in all directions...

The princes and nobles immediately let go of the falcons on their arms, which frightened the pheasants, rabbits and other animals that were trying to escape even more. They all ran madly as if they were risking their lives, but gradually they fell into the eagles' claws one after another!

The most powerful among them is not the ferocious and huge golden eagle, nor any other eagle, but Jiang Yaonian’s three little rosewood eagles!

This time, brother and sister Yao Furong and Yao Chengzu finally witnessed the power of the king of eagles!

When other eagles flew and bit, and finally caught a bloody prey after a long time of effort, the three inconspicuous rosewood eagles flew over the hare's head as quickly as three sharp arrows!

Then something magical happened. The hare, which was running madly, suddenly fell to the ground as if it was drunk!

The rosewood hawk that had just attacked it flew back at this time, gently grabbed the ground with its claws, and flew away with the hare!

The whole process is just a blink of an eye, very clean, neat and efficient!

At this time, the second rosewood eagle came up to meet its companion. The first rosewood eagle loosened its claws lightly, and the hare fell straight from mid-air. The second rosewood eagle grabbed the hare lightly and swiftly and flew away!

The third rosewood hawk met the second rosewood hawk in mid-air, one was responsible for throwing and the other was responsible for catching. They flew back to Jiang Yaonian with the hare very easily, dropped the hare and quickly flew away!

The three eagles cooperated very well and caught a bunch of pheasants and rabbits in a short while. The people present were stunned, and Yao Chengzu shouted excitedly!

Gradually, there were fewer and fewer pheasants and hares, leaving only a few larger roe deer and elk. The princes and nobles, who were ready to go, rode their horses towards the prey!

Shouts, gongs, drums and horns were heard in the stadium at the same time, making it extremely lively!

Amid the cheers of the crowd, the racers galloped on their horses, pulled arrows from their backpacks and put them on the bowstrings. After aiming at the target, some arrows hit the target with one shot, while others missed and fell to the ground.

Jiang Yaonian rode the black horse "Yufeng" at full speed with a very dashing and upright posture. While running, he drew an arrow from his quiver and put it on the string. After taking aim, he let go of the arrow very quickly and hit the target accurately, winning cheers from the crowd!

The socialites and rich ladies clapped their hands with excitement and admiration on their faces, their hearts beating fast: Oh my, this man is just too handsome!

The guards of Jiang's mansion piled up the prey they had shot, and it soon became a pile like a small hill.

Qing He also clapped and cheered with great joy, but after a while, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable all over. She looked around in surprise and suddenly found that the majestic King Huainan was staring at her!

That look was very special, gentle and affectionate, yet kind and natural, as if he had known Qinghe for many years!

This made Qing He feel very strange. She didn't know this prince, so why was he staring at her like that?

What was even more strange was that when he noticed Qinghe looking at him, his eyes did not avoid nor show panic. Instead, he smiled at her very friendly!

This made Qing He feel even more strange, so she quickly withdrew her gaze and stopped looking at him.

Who would have thought that after a while, the chief historian of the palace came towards Qinghe, bowed, and said very respectfully: "Madam Jiang, after the competition is over, the prince would like to invite you to the flower hall to have a chat. He has something to tell you."

Qing He asked in surprise, "The prince wants to see me?"

"Yes!"

"But I don't know your prince?"

The chief official smiled and said, "Young Madam will know when she goes there. I will take my leave now!"

Having said this, he bowed to Qinghe and then left.

Qing He was no longer in the mood to watch the competition. She thought to herself with a worried look on her face, "Why would the prince invite me to a chat for no reason? Could it be that he has heard of my name and wants me to embroider a folding screen for him? But my schedule is fully booked this year!"

She thought that this was the most likely reason why the prince wanted to ask her to do so. Unfortunately, she didn't really want to accept the job. She had already taken on too many jobs before getting married. She wanted to wait until she had finished embroidering all of them and then have a good rest.

If the prince just wanted to embroider a small piece, then it could be considered, but if it was a large piece with very complicated patterns and colors, Qinghe would have to find a way to politely refuse...

This sudden accident made her lose interest in watching the game for a while, and she began to concentrate on thinking about how to turn down this potential big customer...

Shen Xuehan in the tent next to her also noticed the scene just now. When she vaguely heard the chief historian say that King Huainan wanted to see Qinghe, she was stunned at first, and then a hint of surprise and astonishment flashed in her eyes!

But she didn't say much, but quickly regained her composure and continued watching the game.

After a while, Qinghe finally sorted out her thoughts and figured out how to refuse later. By then, the competition had come to an end. After round after round of eliminations, only a few people were left competing for the final winner!

These people all have rich experience in riding and shooting. While galloping on their horses, they do not forget to pull out sharp arrows from their backpacks to aim at the target. Then they let go of their hands and shoot an arrow through the prey's body!

Most of the roe deer and elks that were originally fleeing in all directions had been shot by arrows and fell to the ground. The only one left was a big black wild boar running wildly!

This big wild boar with fangs has rich experience in escaping. Not only did it escape attacks several times, but it also turned around and rushed towards the racer who shot it, looking very ferocious!

Two horses were frightened and kicked like crazy, almost throwing the racers off their backs!

As the crowd exclaimed, the ferocious wild boar rushed towards the remaining racers again, relying on its thick skin and strength to try to get rid of the remaining racers.

The racers withdrew from the competition one after another because their horses would not obey their control, leaving only one agile person still fighting with the wild boar.

As the exciting drumbeats sounded, everyone exclaimed in surprise, and saw that the racer in black riding and archery outfit not only had superb riding skills and an upright posture, but was also very skilled and courageous!

He galloped on his horse, half hanging in the air with only his right leg hooked on the horse's back, and aimed his bow and arrow at the wild boar that was attacking crazily. Everyone in the stands held their breath nervously for a moment...

With a "whoosh" sound, the arrow hit the target accurately!

The big wild boar that was running wildly stumbled and fell down!

The crowd erupted in thunderous applause and cheers. Yao Furong and her brother were so excited that their voices became hoarse. They laughed and shouted loudly, "Brother-in-law is awesome!"

Qing He was also stunned. She never expected that Jiang Yaonian had such superb riding and archery skills!
