Walking to the shooting range, Song Qianyuan said to Gu Rong: "The article is written with feelings, it is impossible for a person to fabricate a scene that has not been seen out of thin air, let alone such a wonderful sentence, it is even more impossible."

Gu Rongdao: "Have you ever seen any Confucian scholar write this article?"

"No." Song Qianyuan smiled.

"Then you..." Gu Rong was stunned.

"Guess," Song Qianyuan said, "Didn't you hear that he really pronounced Jingyang Tower as 'Tengwang Pavilion'?"

No, Gu Rong is sure not.

He had listened carefully to Shen Li's article just now, and he had heard every word, there was no possibility of mistakes.

But Song Qianyuan was so swearing, coupled with Shen Li's reaction, Gu Rong became a little suspicious again.

In fact, Song Qianyuan was not "this life" that Shen Li mispronounced, but "the previous life".

It's just that this matter is too bizarre, he can't tell Gu Rong directly.

In the previous life, Gu Rong didn't listen carefully to what Shen Li had to say, and Song Qianyuan couldn't stand up to help him either.

Gu Rong at that time was very different from now. He was not happy at all in Gu's mansion. He dragged his sick body and passed away within a few years after waking up from a serious illness.

Unlike this life, the expressions on his face are much more vivid than in the previous life.

Song Qianyuan was just gambling.

He bet that Shen Li's article was indeed plagiarized.

Because no matter in the last life or this life, Shen Li doesn't seem to have much talent and learning. Occasionally he comes up with an article, and the style is not very uniform, but he is often praised as a heavenly man. Song Qianyuan has long been suspicious .

But if he was asked to recite the article about Tengwang Pavilion, he couldn't recite it. He hadn't read the original text, so how would he know how much Shen Li had revised in it.

Gu Rong didn't care about the matter just now, he had already looked away from Song Qianyuan making such a fuss, and he was more worried about whether Song Qianyuan would be retaliated by the crown prince and Shen Li in the future.

"No," Song Qianyuan said with a slight smile after hearing Gu Rong's concerns, "You will know in a while."

Gu Rong didn't know what Song Qianyuan meant, but after a while, he understood.

The prince stood beside the shooting range and said: "For the Western Regions, riding and archery is what they are best at, so we need to treat these two items with caution. The emperor has ordered that in addition to the Qinxue Hall, the Imperial College, as well as other officials and families Choose those who are really good at riding and archery, as long as whoever has the ability to win the Western Regions, the emperor will reward you a lot! In the future, you will be promoted to a noble, or you want to find an official position in the court, it is no problem! "

This temptation was indeed great for Gu Zhiyu.

For Gu Tai'an, Gu Zhengchu has always been the hope of their Gu family, and he, the third son of the Gu family, can't even compare to the sickly Gu Rong sometimes.

He didn't want to be like Gu Tai'an at all, who had a noble status, but because he had no real power, sometimes he had to act on the face of those who were lower than him.

He has depended on the emperor all his life, thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of the emperor, if the emperor is unhappy, an imperial decree will deprive the Gu family of their titles.

He couldn't convince himself to follow in his father's footsteps, even Gu Zhengchu could make military achievements for himself in Mobei, why couldn't he?

I heard that Gu Tai'an once thought about passing on his title to Gu Rong.

Gu Tai'an is not like Gu Zhiyu's grandfather, the old Gu Guogong.

Old Gu Guogong, the veteran of the two dynasties, made great contributions to Daning, and only then won this hereditary title from the former emperor.

As for Gu Tai'an, the words that often hang on his lips are nothing but the prosperity of family and everything.

He valued the Gu family's face more than anything else.

He said that Gu Rong is not in good health and may not be able to take good care of himself in the future. He is too impatient and has already made military achievements at the beginning. If the title is passed on to Gu Rong, with his temperament, he may be able to protect the safety of Gu's family. , It can also protect the harmony between the brothers, and Gu Rong has no worries about food and clothing.

What a joke, a concubine, how can He De rob him of his son's things!

Fortunately, he still had time to fight for himself, so he wanted to show Gu Tai'an that he, Gu Zhiyu, was no worse than his two elder brothers.

So Gu Zhiyu volunteered.

The prince quickly selected several others who seemed to have extraordinary abilities and were willing to show off.

Everyone stood in the open space in front of the archery target, and the prince said loudly: "Each person is limited to shoot three arrows, and the one with the highest score wins!"

Gu Zhiyu shot three arrows, and the arrows hit the bull's-eye.

Sure enough, he had the highest score.

The prince looked around: "Is there anyone else who is willing to show his hand?"

No one responded.

So the prince went to the target and shot three arrows.

His arrow head was much higher than Gu Zhiyu's, and he even took five steps back on purpose to lengthen the range.

The prince said again: "Is there anyone else willing to show their hand?"

The crown prince is the crown prince, and his riding and archery is taught by the most capable person in the palace. How can others compare?

Seeing that there was still no answer, the prince snorted and said, "A bunch of trash!"

While the prince was proud, he was also a little anxious.

His father entrusted him with the task of selecting candidates, if he couldn't handle it well, he would screw things up.

He knew that he was powerful, but he was still a bit inferior to the envoys from the Western Regions.

Besides, he is the crown prince, representing the face of the Daning Dynasty, so if he is asked to compete with the envoys of the Western Regions, does it mean that there is no one in the Daning Dynasty?

The prince said anxiously: "Is there really no one?"

"Okay!" the prince said, "From today onwards, you stay after class, and you can leave the palace after noon. The servants of the group priests and the school guards will teach you how to ride and shoot!"

The prince was also angry for a while.

He knew that the envoys from the Western Regions would be coming soon, and it was definitely too late to learn now, but at least he had to train them a little bit.

Although Guozijian has many students who are good at riding and shooting, the hope is always slim.

The most promising teenagers in the Daning Dynasty are all in the Qinxue Hall of his East Palace.

Including the Jinwu Guards who are most valued by the emperor in the palace, they are actually best at arming, guarding, and close combat, rather than riding and shooting.

In order to welcome an envoy from the Western Regions, is it necessary for the emperor to issue an imperial edict to recall the Jingbei Army stationed on the frontier?

At that time, the emperor will punish him for ineffectiveness.

The prince adhered to the principle of taking one step at a time, and said to everyone: "If any archers fail to hit the target today, they are not allowed to leave the palace!"

These officials' children, in addition to listening to Jiang Taifu's lectures in Qinxue Hall, also learn the six arts, so although some of them are not good at riding and shooting, they don't panic after listening to the prince's words, because it is not difficult to hit the target. The hard part is hitting the bullseye.

So they picked up the bows and arrows in front of them one by one and started shooting.

Seeing that his colleagues had finished their tasks and were ready to go home, Gu Rong stood aside without saying a word.

He has never even been to the school since he was a child, let alone archery.

There was a bow in front of him, Gu Rong tried to weigh it in order to go back sooner.

"Yuan Sheng," Song Qianyuan suddenly said from behind Gu Rong, "Go and ask that eunuch if he can change the young master for a small and light crossbow."

Song Qianyuan's voice was very low and possessed the power to comfort people's hearts. Gu Rong turned his head and looked at Song Qianyuan in surprise.

Song Qianyuan looked at Gu Rong and smiled slightly: "Don't worry, young master, just do as I say."

Gu Rong's mood suddenly calmed down, and he said to Yuan Sheng: "Yuan Sheng, go!"

Yuan Sheng hurriedly went to find Shun Fu.

Although the crown prince always disliked Gu Rong, the relationship between Yuan Sheng and Shun Fu was well managed. As soon as Yuan Sheng went to ask, Shun Fu immediately went to ask the crown prince again.

The crown prince looked at Gu Rong following Shun Fu's gaze.

At this time, there were not many people left in the school grounds, and many colleagues got the crown prince's approval to go home for dinner. The crown prince also felt empty in his stomach, and it was impossible for him to waste all his time on Gu Rong.

So the prince nodded, and ordered someone to fetch Gu Rong a small crossbow.

While giving instructions, he looked at Gu Rong with a smile: "Second Master Gu, if you can really hit the bull's-eye with that small crossbow, you will be rewarded for your loneliness!"

Gu Rong didn't say anything.

Although the small crossbow is light, it still has disadvantages compared with the big bows on the field. For example, its range is not far and it is extremely difficult to aim.

Those are not big crossbows used on the battlefield, most of them are just used to hunt birds and rabbits, the only advantage is probably that it is easy to carry.

Song Qianyuan said behind Gu Rong: "The shooting range is too far, you need to use skill, young master, do as I say."

Gu Rong nodded, loaded the arrows on the small crossbow, and set it up with one hand.

Song Qianyuan: "Take a steady step, with the center of gravity slightly backward."

Gu Rong adjusted his posture slightly.

"Aim at the bull's-eye with one eye on the side, and use the instant force to drive the motivation."

Gu Rong put his fingertips on the bracket.

Song Qianyuan reminded Gu Rong: "Turn your heart to the left."

Gu Rong moved his aim slightly.

"Further to the right."

Gu Rong followed suit.

"Raise your arms up, okay, I'll count three, two, one, shoot!"

"Dole!" With a sound, the arrow shot out quickly and hit the bull's-eye in the distance, but because it was too far away and lacked strength, it finally fell to the ground.

The guard in charge of picking up the arrows in the distance raised his arms, signaling to the prince that "the arrow has been shot".

"What?" The prince couldn't believe it, and strode over.

Under the guidance of the guards, the prince carefully looked at the marks left by Gu Rong's arrows on the target, and it was more accurate than most people's.

He turned his head to look at Gu Rong, his eyes shining brightly: "At noon tomorrow, the two of you will come to the school grounds together!"

The crown prince said that he would reward Gu Rong, but he did not break his promise, and Gu Rong got a lot of good things after returning to Gu's mansion.

Those rewards followed Gu Rong to Duke Gu's mansion, and they were all in the name of the Holy One.

Gu Tai'an was so excited that he came out gratefully to thank him.

Gu Rong divided more than half of those rewards to his mother, and picked out a few things that were still eye-catching and sent them to Gu Tai'an and the old lady's room, and asked the servants to help move the rest. Chenxiangyuan.

Those things are dead and dead, even though Song Qianyuan is a hero, he was also pulled by Gu Rong to be a strong man.

On the way back to Chenxiangyuan, Song Qianyuan held a box in each hand, like a strong man with inexhaustible strength.Gu Rong walked ahead with both hands empty, with light steps.

He found that among the prince's rewards was a small jade pendant, which was of excellent quality.

Thinking of Liu Shi and Gu Zhiyu's expressions when they saw Gu Rong receiving the reward, Gu Rong couldn't help but hold up the jade pendant and put it under the sun to look at it, and smiled with his eyes bent.

Why didn't I find out before that the young master is actually a little money fanatic.

Seeing Gu Rong's beautiful eyebrows and eyes curved like a moon under the sun, Song Qianyuan couldn't help laughing.
