This rumor also brought the relationship between the two best friends to a freezing point.
Later, they both got married and things eased a little.
"What? The princess is not happy?" Ji Yannuo glanced at her.
The Crown Princess secretly complained: "Of course I am happy to do so. But if I participate in the equestrian competition, then no one in our Crown Prince's residence can participate in archery. It is better to let..."
"Let Concubine Ye do the archery."
Ji Yannuo made up his mind and pulled Ye Fulun out: "Crown Princess, hurry up and get ready."
"Your Highness," Ye Fuxun didn't expect Ji Yannuo to deal with the Crown Princess in just a few words, "Shall we go watch the horse racing now?"
Ji Yannuo objected: "Equestrian competition and archery are held at the same time. Let's go to the archery range."
The two of them arrived at the archery range, and sure enough, it was already bustling with people.
Although there are not as many female relatives participating in archery as in horse racing, there are still many.
Among them, Princess Yongle is particularly eye-catching in her red dress.
She saw Ye Fuxun and Ji Yannuo coming from a distance, and raised her chin provocatively.
Ye Fuxun's eyes flashed and he said to Jiujiu: "Jiujiu, activate the mind-reading ability on Princess Yongle."
She immediately heard Princess Yongle's thoughts: "Concubine Ye is here too, what a good time to come! Let's see how I can fix her!"
"I think of my Xiangrou back then..."
Ye Fuxun pulled Ji Yannuo's sleeve and asked, "Your Highness, which prince's first name is Xiang?"
Ji Yannuo's eyes flashed: "The second emperor's brother's name is taboo with the single character Xiang."
Ye Fuxun was suddenly surprised.
She heard Princess Yongle mention Xianglang last time in the cave, and now she heard it again. Judging from her tone, Xianglang seemed to be her lover!
But if the so-called Xianglang is the second prince Yanxiang...
Isn’t Princess Yongle Yanxiang’s aunt?
Although the age difference between the two should not be far apart, but——
Is this possible?
"Why did Ah Xun bring this up?" Ji Yannuo was puzzled.
Ye Fuxun thought for a while: "That day outside the cave, I seemed to have heard Princess Yongle mention it."
Ji Yannuo's pupils shrank, and his hand unconsciously clenched Ye Fuxun's hand.
The two went to pick up bows together, and then walked out of the competition venue together.
The competition ground is divided into dozens of competition lanes, and there is an archery target at the end of each lane.
Ye Fuxun looked up and was stunned for a moment.
"Your Highness," she turned to look at Ji Yannuo, "Why is the distance of this archery target nearly half shorter?"
When she was practicing archery in the Prince's Mansion, the distance between the target and the target was about sixty or seventy meters, but this distance seemed to be less than fifty meters!
Ji Yannuo smiled: "The target distance for men's archery is twenty feet. Because women are not strong enough, the target distance for women's archery competition is ten feet."
Eh!
In this case, she seems to have gained a lot more confidence.
Ye Fuxun smiled and said to Ji Yannuo: "Your Highness, I understand."
Ji Yannuo stroked her hair: "It would be best if you win, but it doesn't matter if you lose."
After saying this, he walked towards the viewing platform.
Ye Fuxun waved his arms and kicked his legs to warm up.
"Concubine Ye?"
Princess Qin's voice suddenly sounded behind her, and Ye Fuxun turned to look: "Princess Qin, didn't you go to the horse racing competition?"
"I gave up the competition," Princess Qin walked to Ye Fuxun's side, "Originally, I and my concubine were going to participate in the horse racing competition together, but I didn't know that my concubine just said that she wanted to come over to shoot archery instead, so I accompanied my concubine to the competition.
Come."
Concubine Xue no longer participates in horse racing?
I heard earlier that Empress Xue Fei won the championship every year in horse racing. Why did she suddenly change her focus to archery?
Ye Fuxun became more and more surprised: "Why is this?"
Princess Qin lowered her voice: "In the horse racing competition just now, the mother-in-law said that Princess Yongle cheated her to win. She was so angry that she thought of coming over to compete with Princess Yongle again."
Princess Yongle is cheating?
Ye Fuxun half-opened his mouth, and then heard Princess Qin continue: "Originally, my mother's horse was half a horse faster than Princess Yongle, but when I was sprinting, Princess Yongle suddenly told my mother that my father had been half a month old recently.
I have never been to my mother’s palace..."
"The mother-in-law was distracted for a moment, so she lost."
"So that's how it is." Ye Fuxun was stunned. In order to get first place, Princess Yongle actually resorted to such a despicable trick?
Princess Qin secretly glanced at Princess Yongle on the competition track, curled her lips and said: "I heard that Princess Yongle has loved to use this little trick since she was a child to compete for first place. It makes you lose but you can't say anything."
However, Concubine Xue was older than Yongle, so she couldn't bear to be bullied by Yongle like this.
"I hope my concubine can win Yongle." Princess Qin and Ye Fuxun said a few more words, "I will go to my concubine's place to have a look. Concubine Ye, please do your best too."
When Ye Fuxun saw Princess Qin leaving, he looked at Concubine Xue who was several blocks away, and sure enough he saw that she had a sullen face.
On the other side, the voice of Princess Yongle came again: "Oh, Concubine Xue has just become the defeated general of this palace. Isn't it because you have lost enough to lose and give me another life?"
"Concubine Ye, together with Concubine Xue, I am really relieved today!"
"If Yan Yu hadn't discovered that I had been to the cave, how could the emperor have suspected me? These accounts will naturally be settled one by one after I take care of Empress Yan Liu!"
Ye Fuxun's heart moved slightly.
The Yanyu Princess Yongle mentioned was the son of Concubine Xue, Prince Qin Yanyu.
Thinking of the fact that King Qin found her in the cave, Ye Fuxun suddenly felt that King Qin was really as careful as his hair.
While I was thinking about it, I heard the competition judge ringing the gong to remind everyone that the competition was about to begin.
Each person participating in the competition is assigned ten arrows, and the rules of the competition are also very simple. Shoot all ten arrows, and the order will be judged based on the number of hits.
Princess Yongle took the first place in the competition. She smiled loudly and said: "This princess starts first!"
After saying that, she took out an arrow with familiar and neat movements, put it on the bow, and shot out with a whoosh.
Hit the red heart!
It elicited bursts of applause.
On the audience stage, King Chu strode towards Ji Yannuo and King Qin, and slapped them on each shoulder: "Prince brother, fifth brother, why are you two here to watch a woman's archery?"
"Huh? Concubine Ye participated in women's archery? No wonder!"
The King of Chu chuckled, "If your sister-in-law hadn't been pregnant, she would have had fun shooting a few arrows when she came to hunt in autumn."
"Fifth brother, your wife is not in trouble, why are you here to join in the fun?"
The King of Chu didn't care at all that Ji Yannuo and the King of Qin didn't say anything. He just kept talking to himself and shouted, "Don't you think you'll also come to see Concubine Ye's archery?"
This sentence made Ji Yannuo and King Qin's pupils suddenly shrink.
King Qin coughed, glanced at Ji Yannuo quickly and said, "Brother, please don't talk nonsense. The younger brother is here to watch your mother and concubine shoot arrows."
"Concubine Xue is also here to shoot arrows?" King Chu screamed strangely, "Then the leader of the competition this year will be the winner."
