"If you can't draw the bow, it will damage the country's prestige? What are these ministers talking about?" Someone among the ladies who came with Mu Ning and others asked in confusion.

"What do you know?" Rong Yuqing rolled her eyes at the woman, then her face darkened.

"Da Qian and Hulu have been sworn enemies for more than a hundred years. Ten years ago, Uncle Gong led the troops in a battle and drove the Tartars into the desert. They have always held grudges in their hearts. In the past few years, they have continued to provoke troubles and engage in large and small battles. Countless, but none of them can beat Da Gan!"

Rong Yuqing paused and looked into the school grounds with a worried look.

"These Tartars are very resentful. They must have made this bow because they came to Dagan to find trouble. I don't know what they did. My brother and the others can't even pull this broken bow?"

Rong Yuqing's explanation made the other wealthy ladies who usually didn't care about political affairs also look heavy.

They all began to worry that if no one in Dagan really drew this bow, these Hulu Tatars would definitely spread the word everywhere and slander Dagan's reputation.

Although they are just wealthy ladies living in a boudoir, they still have a sense of honor as citizens of Daqian.

"Don't worry, His Majesty Prince Gong is a master of martial arts, he will definitely draw his bow!" The young lady of General Luan of Zhenguo said suddenly.

"That's right! His Royal Highness Prince Gong led the troops in the battle. It is said that his arms are as strong as a thousand pounds, and his divine bow can pierce Yang arrows at a hundred steps without missing a hit. He will definitely be able to draw that bow!"

The other women who came from a family of military commanders immediately jumped for joy when they heard Miss Luan's words.

But now Mu Ning was even more nervous.

In the school grounds, almost all the nobles and ministers were looking at Rong Chu eagerly.

However, Rong Chu always had his left hand behind his back, his face was gloomy, his eyebrows were together, he just stared at the bow without responding.

"Hey, what's going on, Uncle Gong?" Rong Yuqing asked in confusion.

"Your Highness Prince Gong, all the generals you fought just now have surpassed Sheri, and so far no one has been able to do so."

Ba Youtu smiled very treacherously. He glanced at all the red-faced generals in Dagan and said proudly.

"Your Highness Prince Gong is the only one left now. If even you can't get rid of the shooting sun, then Daqian will cede Luoqi City to me, Hulu!"

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of all the officials on the campus changed drastically. Those who were impulsive were already asking Ba Youtu, "What nonsense are you talking about? What do you mean by ceding Luoqi City if you can't draw your bow? Who should accept this from you?" This condition!"

Ba Youtu shook out a piece of paper triumphantly, then looked at the crown prince Rong Jiang Yi, pointing to the red seal at the bottom, "Of course it is His Highness the Crown Prince of your Daqian. This bet has the seal of His Highness the Crown Prince, respectfully Your Highness, you are a member of the Heavenly Kingdom, so you will not default on your debts!"

When the officials heard that it was a bet between His Highness the Crown Prince and Ba Youtu, they all looked at Rong Jiang Yi with complicated expressions.

The look in Rong Chu's condensed phoenix eyes was also cold.

He glanced at Rong Jiangyi lightly.

At this time, the gentle and handsome face of the noble Crown Prince was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

Because although the ministers didn't say anything, the condemnation in their eyes was clearly revealed.

This made His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who always cherished his reputation very much, very embarrassed.

"Uncle Gong Huang, I..." Rong Jiangyi clenched his hand and looked up at Rong Chu, his eyes full of pleading.

At this time, Rong Jiangyi also realized that he had fallen into the Hulu people's trap. Presumably these Tartars had bad intentions in getting close to him before.

They were the ones who induced him to make the bet. He was drunk and hot at the time and didn't think much about it. He just thought it was just a bow. He didn't believe that no one could pull it open in the whole world!

But when he looked at it today, he realized that this bow was no ordinary bow. It was called Sun Shooting. It was the best bow in the world.

No wonder the many generals with magical arms in Da Gan could not pull it apart.

Now Rong Jiangyi can only place his hope on Rong Chu. If Rong Chu can no longer draw the sun-shooting bow, Luoqi City will inevitably be ceded to Hu Lu.

In that case, wouldn't he become a sinner in Daqian?

If all the officials lose confidence in him and go to his father to speak to him, his position as the crown prince may be in jeopardy.

Rong Jiangyi was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat.

No, Rong Chu can definitely open up the shooting sun!

However, in the face of the anger of the officials and Rong Jiangyi's pleas, Rong Chu still did not move.

He just frowned and stared coldly at the sun bow that was already fixed on the shelf.

No one noticed that Rong Chu's left hand was secretly clenched in his sleeve.

"Your Highness Prince Gong?" Ba Youtu smiled and looked at Rong Chu, his eyes sparkling.

In fact, as keen as he was, he had already noticed that Rong Chu had injured his arm a few days ago.

That's why he took this opportunity to set up a trap to lure His Highness the Crown Prince.

Because Ba Youtu is confident, looking at the entire Daqian, no one except Rong Chu can draw the sun-shooting bow!

"Uncle Gong, I know I did something wrong this time. I will apologize to my father after this incident, but now I ask Uncle Gong to help me again!" Rong Jiangyi was also anxious. He usually said to Rong Chu Although I was very afraid, I also had many complaints in my heart.

But now that Daqian's national prestige and territory were at stake, he had to let go of his heart and seek help from Rong Chu.

"Yes, His Highness Prince Gong, what are you still hesitating about?!" Seeing Rong Chu being so sloppy today, all the ministers couldn't help but look anxious.

Only Ba Youtu stood there with his arms folded with a contented expression, watching this scene with cold eyes.

Rong Chu closed his eyes, as if he had finally made up his mind, and walked forward.

"Your Majesty!" Eunuch Pu stopped Rong Chu worriedly, and glanced at Rong Chu's left arm with vague eyes.

He was worried whether Rong Chu's newly recovered arm would be broken again.

"It's okay!" Rong Chu pursed his lips, a light flashed in his eyes, and he secretly clenched his hands.

But then a trace of pain came from his left arm, which made Rong Chu frown suddenly.

However, even so, Rong Chu did not flinch. He secretly used his internal energy on his left arm to protect the tendons of his left arm.

At this time, the arrow was already on the string and had to be fired.

After a while, as long as he holds the bow in his left hand and concentrates all his strength on his right arm to control the arrow, he should be able to succeed.

Rong Chu knew that he had to do it no matter what today, even if his left arm might be completely disabled!

Seeing that Rong Chu finally stepped forward, the ministers and ministers all breathed a sigh of relief almost at the same time. In their minds, since Rong Chu agreed to take action, today's matter should be foolproof.

Only Ba Youtu always smiled and seemed confident.

However, even though Ba Youtu knew that Rong Chu was injured and that the sun-shooting gun had been specially processed, so the possibility of Rong Chu being able to pull it away was very slim, he still couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

After all, Rong Chuwei was famous, so even Ba Youtu, who had made complete preparations before coming, did not dare to be 100% assured.

At that time, Rong Chu walked towards the sun-shooting bow step by step.

However, at this moment, a small hand gently held his left arm.

The familiar light fragrance hit him, and Rong Chu turned his head suddenly. His solemn black eyes immediately reflected an elegant and beautiful little face.

"My lord, what are you talking about?" Mu Ning pursed her lips and smiled, looking around curiously and asked.

The ministers had just focused their attention on Rong Chu, but no one noticed when Mu Ning came over.

Immediately, a pedantic veteran said displeasedly, "Princess Gong, this is a school ground, how can a woman come here?"

"Can't women come?" Mu Ning blinked and pointed at a young man standing behind Ba Youtu, "Then how can she come?"

After hearing the words, everyone looked in the direction of Mu Ning's finger, and saw a petite young man with red lips and white teeth standing there with his face flushed and his head lowered.

Anyone can see that underneath the men's clothing is a woman's delicate body.

Ba Youtu retracted the stunning look that fell on Mu Ning, and touched his nose with some scorn, "In our Hulu, women can also go to the battlefield. I don't know if Daqian still allows women to enter the school grounds. Rules, this is my concubine Lolita."

The veteran who had just spoken out to question Mu Ning was immediately speechless.

Mu Ning didn't care about him, but looked at Rong Chu, her eyes were as clear as ice and snow.

Rong Chu came back to his senses, and gently held Mu Ning's plain hand on his arm with his right hand, his eyes filled with warmth, "Why are you here?"

Mu Ning smiled and touched the sun-shooting bow placed on the shelf. A strange light suddenly flashed in her big and beautiful eyes, "Do you want to draw the bow, Your Majesty?"

"Yeah!" Rong Chu nodded.

Rong Haoyuan next to him thought Mu Ning had just arrived, so he briefly explained what had just happened.

Mu Ning raised her eyebrows in surprise when she heard this. She pursed her lips and smiled, "Why does the prince need to pull this bow in person? I can pull it by myself!"

"Princess Gong, don't talk nonsense! What you did just now has been tried by many military commanders and masters, and no one can open the shooting sun. You are just a woman, don't break your hands and duck your waist when the time comes, but you have to You’re crying!”

A bearded man with beards following Prince Bayoutu couldn't help but get angry when he saw that Mu Ning looked down on the sun-shooting bow of the Hulu Imperial Court.

"She Jingbing, please don't disrespect Princess Gong!"

Ba Youtu scolded, and then he looked at Mu Ning, "Princess Gong, this sun-shooting bow is the best in the world. Just now you said that there is no need for His Majesty Prince Gong to come and draw it, then you mean that you have to come and draw it on behalf of His Majesty Prince Gong." ?”

Rong Chu looked at Mu Ning nervously. He tightened his palms and whispered, "The power of this sun-shooting bow cannot be underestimated. If it will hurt you, I will do it!"

Mu Ning looked at Rong Chuyi's bright phoenix eyes filled with worry and concern. She shook her head and said firmly, "Do you believe me?"

Rong Chu frowned and nodded, "Of course!"

"Then let me do it!" Mu Ning lowered her eyelashes and seemed to have glanced at Rong Chu's left arm, which was always hidden in his broad sleeve.

Rong Chu felt his heart suddenly shake. He stared at the girl's graceful profile in the sun. Her snowy skin was as white and flawless as fine porcelain.

Did she really know everything?
