Hearing this, Zhou Jiuer only found it funny and asked: "The fifth princess is right, this is a hunting ground. How can there be no blood on the hunting ground?"
"Besides, these people are all erring slaves that I brought out from the house. They are bound to die, so it is better to bring them out to make me happy."
Zhou Jiuer proudly played with the bow and arrow in her hand, "Is this kind of thing still rare in hunting grounds?"
Xiao Ling said dumbly, this kind of thing is indeed common. The noble children always like to use living people as targets. They like to listen to their cries and howls, and watch them kneel down in fear and beg for mercy. Royal hunting is just a fun activity for high-ranking nobles.
Xiao Ling looked at the man lying on the ground and looked down at the bow in his hand, feeling extremely ironic.
"Miss, look." The attendant next to Zhou Jiu'er pointed with his finger. Zhou Jiu'er took a look and saw a pair of rabbit ears exposed in the grass in front of him.
Zhou Jiuer confidently bent his bow and nocked an arrow, and did not forget to turn his head and say to the man standing: "Qingluo, you are next, are you afraid? If you beg for mercy, maybe I can change my mind.
"
Ye Sili looked at the man named "Qing Luo". He was tall and slender, but pitifully thin. He clearly looked gentle, but at this moment he showed a stubborn streak. He didn't even look at Zhou Jiu seriously when his life was at stake.
Son, it made Zhou Jiuer even more unhappy.
The arrow aimed at the rabbit was obviously deflected and stuck firmly on the tree trunk behind the rabbit, causing the rabbit to run away in panic.
The next moment, Zhou Jiuer's arrow was pointed directly at Qingluo.
"Stop!" Ye Sili shouted.
"What's the matter with Princess Yong'an?" Zhou Jiuer asked dissatisfiedly.
"This person is the boss of this county." Ye Sili said calmly.
But Zhou Jiuer laughed out loud, "Is the princess joking? He is just a slave of my Zhou Mansion. There are many servants in Duke Yu's Mansion, why should he pick one from my Zhou Mansion? What's more, Qingluo is a guilty person, how can he
Dare you dirty the princess’s eyes?”
Ye Sili was not angry when he heard Zhou Jiu'er's ridicule. He always remained polite and said:
"The Yugong Mansion has a large population, and one more person is not much. However, the Zhou family is a family in Kyoto after all. They have been adhering to the scholarly and elegant style for generations. Why did it seem to have gone awry when it came to Miss Zhou's place?"
Ye Sili turned around and asked Xiao Ling seriously, "Xiao Ling, I suddenly remembered that I haven't seen the jujube tree in Qianling Palace for a few days."
Xiao Ling looked at Ye Sili's appearance, understood immediately, and took over the words, "Somehow, that jujube tree has crooked branches. This princess hates things like crooked melons and split jujubes, so she naturally sent people to cut them down."
Ye Sili returned his gaze to Zhou Jiu'er's face, which was turning green with anger, and said preemptively: "Miss Zhou is right, but she is just a slave. Naturally, this princess will have whatever she wants."
"Of course, this princess never likes to be in debt, and I don't want this person for nothing. If you have any conditions, just ask."
Everyone in Kyoto doesn't know that Princess Le'an may seem weak and easy to bully, but in fact she has a very tough temper.
Zhou Jiu'er saw that the matter had come to this, how could he destroy Ye Sili's majesty? He smiled heartily and said:
"Since the princess has spoken, I won't be polite."
"Although Qingluo is a slave in my house, I love her very much. If she was given to the princess without any reason, I would feel very uncomfortable."
"It just so happens that today is the royal hunt, why don't we have a test?"
Although the Prince Yu's mansion has been filled with generals for generations, she is the only one left in Ye Sili's generation. Prince Yu is very precious, so he is not willing to let her suffer while practicing.
"Si Li, Zhou Jiu'er is good at riding and shooting. She is deliberately trying to embarrass you. Don't agree." Xiao Ling reminded.
Although the Zhou family came from a scholarly family, Zhou Jiu'er was very favored. Perhaps because her elder brother's literary talent was too dazzling, the Zhou elders never forced her to study literature. Instead, they followed her temper and hired a teacher to teach her how to ride a bicycle.
shoot.
"Okay, how do you compare?" Ye Sili agreed decisively, but Zhou Jiuer was stunned.
"It's rare that the princess is in high spirits, so let's play something exciting." Zhou Jiu'er turned around, her eyes fell on the prey she had just caught, she stretched out her hand and ordered: "Take a piece of the pheasant's long feathers."
.”
The attendant obeyed the order and got it. Zhou Jiuer took it in his hand and looked at it, but he was not satisfied.
"Uproot the shorter ones."
"Take it and tie it to Qingluo's left shoulder."
Xiao Ling looked at the chicken feathers tied on Qingluo's left chest, with only three inches of chicken hair leaking out, and felt that it was too much to bully someone.
"Zhou Jiu'er, you are clearly trying to make things difficult for me!"
Zhou Jiuer said provocatively: "Princess, how do you do?"
Ye Sili stared at the chicken feathers on Qingluo's left shoulder and said, "I believe Miss Zhou's archery skills will naturally not hurt anyone, right?"
Zhou Jiuer replied "Of course" nonchalantly, and then ordered his entourage to take Qingluo forward.
"Let me briefly explain the rules." Zhou Jiuer looked at Qing Luo in the distance and said with interest:
"How about you and I shoot an arrow at the same time and cut off the chicken feathers that leak out to win?"
Xiao Ling said worriedly: "The tips of the chicken feathers are soft, and it would be too dangerous to tie them to a human body."
Zhou Jiuer said with a smile: "The fifth princess doesn't know something. He deserves to die because he has committed a crime. Now we have spared him once in the competition. What do you think, Lord Commander?"
Ye Sili always looked forward, and Qingluo was also looking at her, with unclear meaning in her eyes.
"One round determines the outcome. Miss Zhou, please don't cheat." Ye Sili picked up an arrow and looked at it carefully.
"nature."
After saying that, the two of them took the arrow and pulled the string at the same time.
The distance was far away, Ye Sili looked serious, and pointed his arrow at the target.
At the critical moment, Zhou Jiuer's arrow suddenly moved downwards, "Whoosh--" the arrow had already left the string.
When Ye Sili saw this, he didn't have time to think, and the arrow flew out.
Seeing that the arrow shot straight towards Qingluo's heart, Qingluo did not dodge.
Ten meters, five meters, three meters, one meter!
"Bump--" The subsequent arrow missed the first arrow, and Qingluo was still injured on the shoulder.
"Zhou Jiu'er!" Ye Sili was very angry.
Seeing that Qingluo was still alive, Zhou Jiuer said lightly, "My hands are shaking, I'm sorry."
Ye Sili was about to settle accounts with her, but Xiao Ling called her: "Sili, Qingluo can't hold on any longer."
"Shaking hands may mean something is wrong. Call the doctor early and take a look!" After saying that, Ye Sili rode his horse towards Qingluo.
Ye Sili dismounted skillfully and stepped forward to check Qingluo's injury.
Qingluo's lips turned white due to excessive blood loss, but she knelt down to salute regardless of her injuries.
"Slave Qingluo, thank you very much, Princess, for saving my life!"
"Hey, fifth princess, Princess Le'an, it's easy to find your slaves." The father-in-law, who had just been thrown away by Ye Sili and Xiao Ling, finally came to find them. He was shocked when he saw this situation and did not ask any questions.
, then listened to Ye Sili’s instructions:
"Bring Qingluo back."
Ye Sili and Xiao Ling didn't want to get entangled with Zhou Jiu'er and hurried back.
Gu Liyou and Mu Jiufeng hurried over.
"Ah Li, Fifth Princess, Late Spring and Huan Xia said that you had a doctor, but he was injured?"
