High and low have been divided.

Looking at the cuckoo bird hanging on the tip of the arrow, Minghui's eyeballs almost popped out, and his face looked as if he had swallowed a fly alive, turning blue and then white.

How can this be? !

Doesn't it mean that Tan's riding and shooting is not very superb?

He turned his head abruptly, and looked at Lu Xun, who had reported the news to him, but was equally dumbfounded at this time, his gaze was so intense that it almost devoured people.

Being stared at by Minghui like this, Lu Xun trembled all over, and immediately came back to his senses, with a distorted expression and lowered his head, not daring to look at the former at all.

The information from the Forbidden Army was wrong, which he did not expect.

Besides...

His Highness the Second Highness is in a state of turmoil now, and he may not have thought of this for a while; but Lu Xun almost reacted suddenly when Ming Tan drew his bow to the tree, and his clothes were instantly soaked in cold sweat.

Princess Nine's archery skills are superb, far surpassing that of ordinary people. Just now, she only scored two or three rounds in a row, so she will definitely become suspicious.

So, she must have discovered the mystery in the archery target, and then suddenly...

The flesh on Lu Xun's face trembled slightly, not daring to think deeply.

We must find an opportunity later and deal with that target as soon as possible!

"—Oh, just now, I accidentally found a cuckoo parked on a tree. I was so happy to see it, so I couldn't help but knocked it down...Second Brother, you don't mind, do you?"

Ming Tan held the long bow in the palm of his hand, and drew the bow string like playing a zither. He was full of courtesy, congratulated Ming Hui slightly, and said with a smile: "Five arrows win three wins, and there are still two arrows left. Shall we continue to compare?"

Her voice was not too loud, just enough for everyone around her to hear clearly.

Prince Yu's son is a knowledgeable person, he looked down at the cuckoo in his hand, the corners of his lips twitched slightly, and he couldn't help but smile from the bottom of his heart.

It's already like this, what else can be compared?

A bird the size of a palm can be shot down from a treetop with a single arrow from a distance of ten feet. Isn't this much more powerful than hitting a dead target?

In the presence, everyone who has eyes is also well aware of this fact.

There were a lot of people onlookers, and there were many princes and nobles who were attracted on the way.Ming Hui is a person who cares about face. Seeing this situation, of course he will not continue the competition, so he twitched his face and forced a smile: "Xiao Jiu's arrow skills are so superb, why do you need to compete again? Just now, the arrow was hit by a coincidence. , It really makes the emperor feel ashamed, and he is willing to bow down!"

"Brother Huang beat me." Ming Tan said with a smile, "Your archery skills are not bad, so why should you be humble?"

To others, this is a polite way for a winner to a loser, and it should be praised that the Nine Princesses have an extraordinary bearing.

But the same words fell into Minghui's ears completely differently - not only did they have a hint of pity, but they also made him feel as if he had been slapped hard on the face, with burning pain.

"..."

Minghui's fingertips twitched almost uncontrollably, and it took a lot of effort to swallow the humiliation back into his throat, barely maintaining his graceful demeanor, "I can't be a little praise."

Ming Tan just pretended not to notice his changing face, and chuckled helplessly.

Although she didn't say anything more, Minghui was still furious.He took a deep breath, suppressed his emotions and turned his head, but happened to meet Lu Xun's nervous face.

Seeing that the Second Highness finally noticed him, the latter hurriedly looked towards the direction of the archery target, and gave him wild winks, and almost raised his arms and shouted—"Your Highness! Don't forget what we did earlier! "

Lu Xun's expression was ferocious, and Ming Hui was really taken aback. It wasn't until he looked in the direction he indicated that he suddenly realized what the other party meant.

Those magnets...!

Ming Hui's thoughts changed, and he hurriedly said: "Today, I forced Xiao Jiu to compete, it's all the fault of the emperor—someone, replace all the targets that have been shot by the prince, don't let Jiu Gongzhu Stop worrying about these chores!"

The second prince had an order, and the eunuchs behind him looked at each other, not daring to be negligent, and immediately went forward to dismantle the archery target.

However, they had just taken half a step before they were stopped by Ming Tan with a wave of his hand.

"It's such a small matter to change the target, why are you so polite to me?"

After Ming Tan finished speaking in a gentle voice, without giving Ming Hui a chance to react, he raised his voice and said, "Gourd baby! Hurry up and ask the brothers to replace those used targets, so don't cause trouble for others!"

At the same time as she spoke, Lin Shurong, who was closer to the archery target, had already got up, and whispered to Lu Hu who was standing beside her: "Captain Lu, please put away His Highness's archery target yourself."

"Yes, Miss Lin."

Lu Hu is a member of the imperial army, so he naturally knows the level of archery of the nine princesses.

Only then did he see that the two arrows fell to the edge, which was far from the level of the Ninth Princess, and doubts abounded in his heart.Now, after Lin Shurong mentioned such a point, Lu Hu suddenly realized, and hurriedly said, "I'll take it now!"

The Imperial Army is in charge of almost all the affairs of the Dongfeng Paddock this time.As soon as Ming Tan gave an order, soldiers immediately moved after hearing the sound. How could Ming Hui have a chance to intervene?

Watching the target being carried away by Lu Hu, Ming Hui's face was pale, and he stared at the smiling Ming Tan for a while, only to realize that the other party probably already knew the secret methods well.

... After all, he still underestimated this Nine Emperor Girl.

"Ah."

Now that the matter has been revealed, Minghui is unwilling to make false claims with her again, so he simply tore off the gentle mask and said with a sneer, "Sister Nine Emperors, since the victory and defeat have been decided, Brother Huang will take his leave first!"

Anyway, the preparations before Autumn Hunting were complicated, and many people had used those archery targets... Even if Ming Tan discovered the magnet in the target, there was no evidence to fully prove that he did it, even if they checked it, they couldn’t find it. to himself.

And after such a long time, I think the concubine's side has already been settled——

He just had to wait for the good news.

"Congratulations to the second brother."

Ming Tan blissed himself slightly, raised his eyes to stare at Ming Hui's rapidly retreating figure, there was no joy of a successful counterattack on his face, but he frowned, and felt a sudden thump in his heart.

An insidious person like Minghui, who is used to being affectionate on the surface but actually playing tricks behind his back, would choose to directly tear his face away with her?

I always have a bad premonition...

Just as Ming Tan was thinking deeply, a tentative cough suddenly came from beside him.She froze for a moment, then turned her head, and saw that Prince Yu's son had a straight face, arched his hands towards her, and said: "I am Ming Fei, the son of King Yu, and I have seen His Royal Highness the Ninth Princess."

"...?" Ming Tan looked at him strangely, and replied politely, "His Royal Highness."

At this moment, Lin Shurong also came forward, looking at the two people who were right on each other like Tan Lang thanking his daughters, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows slightly.

She made a wrong step, turned sideways as if unintentionally, and stood between Ming Tan and Ming Fei, saluting: "I have seen the princess, and I have seen His Royal Highness."

"..."

Ming Tan blinked, looked at Lin Shurong's figure who completely blocked Prince Yu's sight, and the corners of his lips curved into a deep smile.

Oh dear...

Looking at the beautiful woman who suddenly crossed between them in front of him, Ming Fei frowned blankly. After a long while, he suddenly recognized her and said with a face: "I have admired Miss Lin for a long time. Seeing is better than hearing a hundred times."

After finishing the polite words, without waiting for Lin Shurong's answer, he turned to Mingtan again and said very eagerly: "Princess Ninth, I have taken the liberty to disturb you this time, but I actually have an unfeeling request!"

"what?"

Ming Tan tilted his head, and spotted Lin Shurong's suddenly tense back line with his sharp eyes. While secretly laughing twice in his heart, he deliberately put on a very gentle attitude, and said to Ming Fei, "Your Majesty, why don't you tell me?"

"I think..."

After saying two words, Ming Fei couldn't help but feel his scalp tense, and he felt a sense of crisis - he turned his head reflexively, but found nothing, only met Lin Shurong's calm eyes.

Eh, just now it seemed that there was a murderous aura coming, was it an illusion?

Ming Fei scratched his head strangely, coughed lightly, and continued: "Princess Nine is very good at archery. The arrow just now can be said to have pierced Yang Yang with a hundred steps, which really amazed me... Therefore, I can't bear my skill, so I just want to ask the princess for advice." , I wonder if you can agree?"

"Ask me for advice?"

Mingfei's biological father, King Yu, was indeed skilled and superb in martial arts. When he was young, he tried to ask the emperor to go to the barracks of the frontier troops to practice. Of course, the emperor rejected him mercilessly. Let's not mention it for now.

Unexpectedly, the father of the tiger has no dog and his son is sincere and does not deceive me. His Royal Highness is actually such a martial artist?

Well.

Recalling carefully, when he seized the throne in the past, King Yu also secretly provided a lot of help to his father; now, apart from being whimsical sometimes, he is also very reassuring to his father, and he is an independent A wise man who knows the times...

In this case, she might as well form a good relationship with this son.

Ming Tan pondered for a moment, then smiled again, nodded and agreed to Ming Fei's request, and said politely: "I am so capable, how can I be worthy of my son's advice? If you want, you might as well wait a while and go hunting in the forest Let's have a competition, what do you think?"

Since she was so appreciative, Ming Fei was naturally overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Of course it is good! Thank you Ninth Princess for making it happen!"

Ming Tan waved his hand and didn't say anything more. He only made an appointment to meet him in the paddock in half an hour, then turned around, grabbed Lin Shurong's hand, and dragged the latter towards the camp.

"Qingqing, Minghui's move is a bit weird."

Ming Tan lowered his voice and said: "This competition seems to have other meanings. It seems that it is deliberately trying to hold me back and prevent me from going hunting in the forest immediately."

"So you feel it too." Lin Shurong's eyes narrowed slightly, and he nodded cautiously, "The second prince spends so much time and energy on the target, if it's just to beat you in the competition, it's a bit too exhausting. It worked."

It is rare for women to practice martial arts, coupled with the limitations of innate strength and other factors, it is even rarer to be able to outperform men in this field.

Therefore, even if Ming Tan really lost the competition just now, at most he would only be ridiculed a few times for "overreaching his own strength", and it would not hurt his muscles or bones.

——In this way, Minghui's methods naturally seemed to be making a fuss out of a molehill.

"He must have other plans." Ming Tan made a final decision.

But having said that, they couldn't deduce what Minghui's plan was from the few clues.

"Just in case... When you compete with that Prince Yu's son later, please let me go with Ah Xun." Lin Shurong asked worriedly.

"it is good."

Ming Tan turned his head, met her eyes full of concern, the corners of his lips could not help but slightly raised, and finally smiled as if he was relieved.

"Luckily you're here."
