By the time of the eighth arrow, the wound on Gu Jinyan's hand had split open due to the force, the gauze was stained red, and even dripping drops appeared.
So when she was here, Gu Jinyan paused, and the pain in her palm made her face turn a little pale.
"What's going on!" The emperor's face changed slightly.
"Miss Gu Er is injured?" The Queen was also a little worried.
Marquis Jing'an said: "Yesterday, Ah Huan had a quarrel with Princess Ji Ning at White Deer Academy. Princess Ji Ning hit A Huan with a whip, but Miss Gu Er caught the whip with her hand.
I said it wasn’t serious, but I didn’t expect it.”
"We can no longer let Miss Gu Er compete. I, the Marquis of Jing'an, will bear the consequences."
After saying that, Marquis Jing'an was about to stop him, but Gu Kaiji stopped Marquis Jing'an.
Gu Jinyan threw away the gauze that was in his way, tore a piece of cloth at the corner of his skirt, bandaged the wound, and continued to shoot two arrows.
The last arrow was missing.
Princess Ji Ning looked at Gu Jinyan and was stunned. Prince Ji was the first to react: "She missed the target with the last arrow, so Princess Ji Ning wins."
"It's already very good," the Queen said.
Even if they missed the target, it can be said that they were evenly matched, not to mention that Miss Gu Er was injured.
Princess Jining came out of shock and looked at Meng Yun: "Admit defeat."
At this moment, the soldier in charge of the verification shouted loudly: "It didn't miss the target, it didn't miss the target."
The soldier took the target and the arrow together and shouted excitedly: "Your Majesty, you hit the target right in the middle. The target rushed out because of the power of the arrow. It's amazing! It's amazing that a woman can shoot like this."
It’s terrible!”
At this time, Jining also saw the arrow firmly embedded in the bullseye.
The Ninth Prince opened his mouth in shock.
The queen laughed immediately.
The emperor stood up with a proud look on his face: "Prince Ji, you didn't see clearly."
"Your Majesty, Prince Ji has never seen a woman with such excellent shooting skills as my daughter. It's rare that she misses the target." Gu Kaiji said without hesitation: "Today my daughter has really opened your eyes.
"
"Second Miss Xuan Gu, come up." The emperor said excitedly.
The empress said: "Go and tell the doctor."
Gu Jinyan walked up and saluted in a neither humble nor overbearing manner: "I have met the Emperor and Queen, my lords."
"Miss Gu Er, can you really capture a white tiger alive?" the Ninth Prince asked curiously.
He didn't believe it at all before, but with this archery skill, the Ninth Prince felt that what Master Gu said was true.
Gu Jinyan almost staggered, what is this?
Look at Dad.
Gu Jinyan was a little annoyed and said angrily: "Dad, what are you talking about?"
"I must be honest, Dad is bragging." Gu Kaiji said with a wink.
Gu Jinyan said helplessly to the Ninth Prince seriously: "Reporting to the Ninth Prince, I have never captured you."
The Ninth Prince felt that Miss Gu’s attitude towards Master Gu was very different from that towards him.
"Is your hand okay?" the queen asked.
"It's okay, it doesn't hurt, it's just a small wound, it just looks scary." Gu Jinyan said with a relaxed look.
"My daughter has suffered a serious crime. Your Majesty, is there no surprise in the reward?" Gu Kaiji asked.
The emperor considered it seriously.
If you want some decent reward, that would be easy.
Gu Kaiji said that he wanted a handsome young man, so it was a bit difficult to choose.
"Miss Gu Er doesn't know if I think she is suitable in Kyoto. Whose son is more handsome? I will try my best to make the decision." The emperor said.
Gu Jinyan almost choked on the water he just drank, and looked at the emperor with a puzzled expression: "What?"
After saying that, he glared at Gu Kaiji and said through gritted teeth: "Dad, just ask for some money, any handsome young man you want!"
The emperor's face darkened.
?????
Just want some money?
She truly deserves to be the daughter taught by Gu Aiqing.
"Father, didn't you just say that you would choose from among your own sons?" the Ninth Prince said proactively.
"No need. You said you don't like the Ninth Prince. I'd better look for someone from my colleague's house. It's best to come to the house." Gu Kaiji directly rejected the Ninth Prince.
The Ninth Prince is in trouble.
He explained: "I hadn't seen it at that time..."
"Your Majesty, what dad said is nonsense, just reward me with some money." Gu Jinyan said quickly.
The emperor had a headache.
She is indeed Gu Aiqing's daughter, exactly the same.
If this matter were the daughter of Liu Shangshu's family, she would be flattered and say, "I don't want any reward."
However, Gu Aiqing's daughter said, "Just reward me with some money."
The emperor was about to speak.
Gu Kaiji said with a bitter look on his face: "Your Majesty, I am doing this for my little daughter's good. You don't know. My daughter is a simple person and never cares about family status. At the beginning, my wife and Mrs. Anqing Bofu were good friends.
, he made the decision to get married to Uncle Anqing. He originally thought that Jinyan didn’t care about his family status, and because Anqing’s family was poor, he also helped a lot. How could he know that the young master of Anqing’s mansion was not in the right mind, and he was completely wrong?
When you are sure that the one who has lost her innocence is your daughter, why do you want her to be your concubine?"
"My little girl can't bear this grievance and breaks off the engagement. After the engagement is broken off, the marriage becomes difficult to handle, so I will go out of my way to make this request."
"That's unreasonable. The Anqing Mansion is so insidious and shameless." The Ninth Prince said angrily.
The emperor did not expect that such a thing would happen.
The young master of Anqing's Mansion, has his brain been kicked by a donkey?
The daughter of a minister, with red lips and white teeth, looks delicate and frail, and is flirtatious when the time comes. He is not satisfied with a girl like this and makes her a concubine?
"Uncle Anqing's Mansion?" The emperor thought carefully about whose house this was.
No impression at all.
I don’t know if he is an earl who has been relying on his title for many years.
"I understand." The emperor responded: "Since Miss Gu Er likes silver, she will reward you with a hundred taels of gold. In addition, if there is any young master who likes you, I will personally grant you a marriage."
"I would like to thank you, Your Majesty." Gu Kaiji said with a smile.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness." Gu Jinyan knelt down sincerely to thank him.
The Ninth Prince looked aggrieved.
The imperial doctor also hurried over at this moment.
The emperor asked her to look at the wound first.
As for the competition, it has to be concluded.
As a noble, of course he can't embarrass a little princess.
But County Master Meng Yun was not a vegetarian, so he said to Jining: "Why, are the women of Rizhao Country so unable to afford to lose? Since you have lost, you should speak up quickly."
