But seeing that woman Qinghua Ruyue, she seemed to feel his gaze. She looked sideways, with a hint of provocation at the corner of her lips.
His breath could not help but sink, and his thick black eyebrows wrinkled slightly.
This woman dared to threaten him with her grandfather!
His eyes suddenly flashed, and an idea suddenly came to his mind!
…
Ye Qingran was thinking about whether to participate in the archery competition and seize the orb openly, or wait for someone to get the orb, take advantage of it, and snatch it away, when suddenly, someone hit her on the shoulder.
She looked up and saw that the man was extremely tall and had an ordinary face, one that would never be remembered in a sea of people.
As for his temperament, it's just average.
His overall sense of presence is very low, like an invisible person!
"sorry!"
Ye Qingran shook his head slowly.
"Who are you?"
"I have no trace."
Traceless?
Ye Qingran had never heard of this name, but she felt like she had seen it somewhere before. But this face and this aura, she concluded, were very strange!
"Did I make a mistake?"
Ye Qingran thought secretly in his heart.
Wuhen's eyes looked at her with a hint of apology, letting her look at him, and it seemed that he was not weak at all.
Ye Qingran gradually let go of that idea.
"If nothing happens to Miss Ye, I will take my leave first."
Ye Qingran nodded slowly and looked at Wuhen's back. For a while, he couldn't figure out where the faint feeling of familiarity came from, so he had to give up.
…
Here, Ye Qingran couldn't help but feel entangled, Queen Gu's voice came slowly.
"Ye Qingran, your mother, General Dingyuan Yun Suifeng, is the war goddess of our country in Donglin. She has great military exploits and is an expert in archery and equestrian skills. As the daughter of General Dingyuan, you must not be very good at archery either.
Not going anywhere, right? Now that we are finally back, why not also participate in the archery competition."
Everyone looked like they were watching the show.
"Since the Queen has said so, I just want to participate!"
Ye Qingran nodded and responded.
Seeing that Ye Qingran actually agreed, everyone present had different expressions.
Many people looked at Ye Qingran with sarcastic eyes.
No one in Xiliang City knows that although Ye Qingran is the daughter of General Dingyuan, she has not inherited any of her mother's skills.
If she participated in an archery competition, wouldn't it be a joke if she couldn't even hit the target?
"Sister, do you want to participate too? That's great. I remember how we practiced archery together when I was a kid. I really miss it. Now I can finally shoot archery with my sister again. Huanhuan is so happy!"
Ye Huanhuan stepped forward and wanted to grab Ye Qingran's hand, but she dodged her. Ye Huanhuan was not annoyed.
"Sister, the first test is about to start, come here quickly!"
The archery competition is divided into a preliminary test, a retest and the final top three competition.
Anyone can participate in the preliminary test. Each person has five arrows. The scores are ranked from high to low. The top ten can enter the re-test.
In addition to single-arrow archery, the retest also added multi-arrow archery and moving target archery. The top three scores were calculated based on the sum of the three scores and ranked first.
The final ranking of the top three is based on who can kill more birds with fewer arrows.
Ye Qingran waved his hand and said calmly: "The first test is too troublesome, how about you challenge me after entering the second test?"
As soon as this statement came out, many people's expressions changed.
Mu Qingrou laughed out loud: "Hahaha, Ye Qingran, I'm afraid you can't even hit the target. How dare you speak so brazenly that Ye Huanhuan challenges you? Are you worthy?"
Zhao Yan also sneered: "I think she was afraid that she would be kicked out of the first test and feel embarrassed, so that's why she said that, right?"
…
Everyone looked at Ye Qingran with somewhat dissatisfied eyes.
Empress Gu smiled and said: "Ye Qingran, you have also seen that if you don't take part in the preliminary test, you won't be able to convince the public. Otherwise, you don't have to take part in the preliminary test. However, if you lose to Huanhuan in the retest,
, how about you apologize to everyone?"
"Is that all just apologizing? She must kneel down and kowtow to everyone to apologize!" Dongfang Ling'er said fiercely.
Queen Gu naturally agreed with Dongfang Ling'er's words, but as the mother of a country, it was naturally difficult for her to say these words.
She knows that if she doesn’t say it, others will!
"What do you think?" Queen Gu looked at everyone and asked with a smile.
"I think what the thirteenth princess said makes sense!"
"The Thirteenth Princess is right. Ye Qingran is so arrogant. If he loses, he must kowtow and apologize!"
"agree!"
…
Most people agreed.
Queen Gu looked at Ye Qingran and said helplessly: "Ye Qingran, you have also seen that unless you take part in the preliminary test, otherwise, if you lose, the consequences..."
All of this was within Ye Qingran's expectation. She looked at Queen Gu and tugged her lips: "Now, the queen doesn't have to worry about it."
Queen Gu smiled and said nothing.
Ye Qingran, I want to see where you get your confidence from!
The archery competition will begin soon. Those players who signed up to participate in the competition will draw lots and then complete the archery in the order of drawing the lots. There will be a special examiner to record the results.
A total of eighty-eight people participated in the competition. Within an hour, the preliminary test was over. Unsurprisingly, Ye Huanhuan won the first place in the preliminary test with an absolute advantage. Dongfang Xuan ranked second, Mu Qingrou fourth, and Dongfang Ling.
Son ranked sixth.
Ye Qingran noticed that the man named Wuhen who bumped into her shoulder also participated in the competition, but ranked last!
At first, Ye Qingran saw the man coming on the stage confidently, with his bow fully drawn, and his face calm. He thought he was a master, thinking that even if he couldn't get into the top three, he could at least make it to the finals. Until he saw it.
She was shocked when three of his five arrows hit the two targets next door, another arrow missed the target directly, and the last arrow fell to the ground unable to fly before it reached the target.
Sure enough, people cannot be judged by their appearance!
The top ten people enter the re-examination.
The retest includes three single arrows, three multiple arrows and three moving targets.
Ten people finished in order, and Ye Huanhuan finally topped the list with the first place in the total score.
"Huanhuan, you are amazing!"
Mu Qingrou gave a thumbs up and praised loudly.
"Yes, first place in the re-examination! It seems that this year's top spot is none other than Huanhuan!"
Zhao Yan echoed.
Ye Sisi gave Ye Huanhuan a sisterly hug.
Dongfang Ling'er curled her lips, but looked away.
Ever since Ye Huanhuan refused to help her that time at Yaowang Pavilion, she and Ye Huanhuan had not interacted much.
However, this did not prevent her from feeling disgusted with Ye Qingran.
Dongfang Ling'er looked at Ye Qingran with evil eyes and shouted: "Ye Qingran, I want to see what results you can achieve!"
These words reminded everyone.
"Ye Qingran, yes, it's your turn!"
"Ye Huanhuan, challenge Ye Qingran, I can't wait to see her make a fool of herself!"
"Don't irritate her, she's already good at it. What if she gets nervous and makes her pee?"
"Hahaha, don't tell me, it's really possible!"
…
Everyone looked at Ye Qingran with different expressions in their eyes, most of them had the attitude of watching a good show.
Ye Qingran was so desperate that he dared to let Ye Huanhuan challenge her? Ye Huanhuan was the first in the re-examination with excellent results. How could Ye Qingran be her opponent when she was just a loser?
Ye Huanhuan adhered to her "understanding" persona, waved her hands and said to everyone: "Okay, sister was joking just now, don't force her. If sister doesn't want to, forget it."
This indirectly acknowledged that Ye Qingran was a good person! It also directly stimulated everyone's emotions.
"Why should we let it go? She just spoke so brazenly that she doesn't need to be held responsible for speaking out of love?"
"That is, Ye Qingran can either accept the challenge, or she can directly apologize to everyone!"
"Ye Qingran can't even hope to get away with it today!"
…
Everyone was reluctant to let Ye Qingran make such a fool of himself.
"this…"
Ye Huanhuan put on a troubled expression, not knowing what to do, but she was happy in her heart.
She knew that no matter what she said, Ye Qingran would not be able to escape today!
She is looking forward to Ye Qingran's performance very much. After all, the more Ye Qingran has many dishes, the more she can bring out her excellence!
"I come."
A cool voice came from the crowd.
Everyone followed the sound and saw the speaker leaning against the tree with his head slightly raised...
