The maid hurried to the eldest princess and whispered: "Princess, 'Guanshi Moyu' is missing."
The eldest princess clenched her hands on the chair, frowned and asked, "What do you mean missing?"
The maid said tremblingly: "It was stolen and more than a dozen pots of flowers were trampled on."
The eldest princess looked at more and more people gathering, and said in a deep voice: "Bring Yao, Huang, and Wei Zi up for emergency response later. You can search for them secretly. I want to see who is so bold and dares to attack my peony."
Stealing flowers from the feast."
The maid wiped her cold sweat, bowed her back and left.
As peonies were placed in pots, the entire palace was filled with light fragrance.
Some noble ladies had already written poems, and the maids copied them onto blank scrolls. Men came one after another to write poems.
Most of them are Jiangnan students who want to show their knowledge in front of the noble ladies of Kyoto.
The noble princes of Kyoto were all on the field, riding horses, shooting arrows, playing Cuju and throwing pots, and had a great time.
Gu Yu was surrounded by the excitement. She didn't know why, but despite the bright spring scenery, she always felt a chill down her spine, as if she was being stared at by a poisonous snake. She looked around, but found nothing unusual.
Looking at the ladies' table, she had excellent eyesight. From a distance, she saw several noble ladies surrounding her sister, lowering their heads and talking. It seemed that they were getting along well.
Maybe she was overly worried. Her sister was not as delicate as she thought, and she couldn't handle it easily with so many people around her.
What Gu Yu didn't know was that Gu Qiong was surrounded by many noble ladies asking about her brother's preferences.
Gu Qiong was a little nervous at first. After all, she was an actual "old girl" and she was afraid that she would be isolated when she got along with a group of fifteen or sixteen-year-old girls.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he came here, these little sisters would flock to him. From their conversations, Gu Qiong understood that they were all here for his brother.
While they were chatting with themselves, they kept looking at their brother.
Even though she was determined to help her brother look at the girls, she couldn't help but listen to their chirping.
A noble girl suddenly said: "Look, it's the third young lady of the Sun family."
Gu Qiong looked over and saw a girl in pink walking towards her brother.
A noble girl next to her said, "What is she going to do? Oh my god, she's going to Prince Gu."
Another noble girl said: "I'm really not ashamed."
A noble girl at the back rolled her eyes, and while they were still filled with indignation, she quietly retreated and walked towards Gu Yu.
Gu Yu heard cheers coming from the racecourse not far away. There seemed to be an archery competition there, and some people were placing their bets.
She couldn't help but sigh, no place in Kyoto can do archery as spacious as here. It seems that spring is here and everyone is very restless and wants to show off their equestrian grace in front of the noble lady.
Before he finished sighing, a little girl in pretty pink trotted over, handed her a small note, and trotted off.
When Gu Yu unfolded it, she couldn't even laugh or cry. A girl's feelings are always poetry. The words and sentences in the little poem she wrote are excellent.
Just giving it to her would be a waste of time.
Immediately afterwards, another girl came over. This woman was more direct. She pulled off the silk flowers on her head and stuffed them into her hands.
She quickly refused: "Thank you very much, girl, for your kindness, but I just don't want to accept her affection."
The girl's eyes were filled with excitement and she was about to say something.
Suddenly, a gust of wind hit Gu Yu's ears. She subconsciously dodged, and a soft thing was inserted diagonally into her hair crown.
Looking in that direction, the broom star is riding on a horse with a bow and arrow in his hand. Behind him is the colorful spring scenery. The wind lifts his hair, making him look more elegant and elegant.
However, his charming and handsome appearance was greatly diminished by his ungrateful expression.
Jun Ze said from a distance: "Prince Gu, if you don't ride horses and shoot arrows with us, and play with flowers and plants among a group of girls, what kind of man are you?"
Gu Yu became so angry that she took the thing off her head and found that it was a peony that was so red that it was almost black. She was so angry that she threw the flower to the ground and crushed it.
The maid who was busy looking for the "flower thief" almost knelt down when she saw this scene.
Dozens of top gardeners carefully cultivated it for nearly ten years to obtain such a world-class black jade flower, but now it was trampled to pieces by Prince Gu.
Junze glanced at the girl who was being courteous to Gu Yu.
When the girl saw this evil star who was rumored to have scolded the daughter of the Minister of Household Affairs until she hanged herself, she didn't even care about Gu Yu and ran away quickly.
Gu Yu watched the broom star riding over with cold eyes and walked around her in a circle.
I don't know what kind of evil this person was holding back, but something was thrown towards her.
She quickly caught it, it was a bow, and Junze asked provocatively: "Bibi?"
Before Gu Yu could refuse, Junze rode away in the dust.
She was choked by the dust from the horse's hooves and coughed.
Another burst of cheers came from the distance, and Junze shot a flying goose in the sky and passed by.
Gu Yu complained in a low voice: "It's boring." and turned to leave.
Junze clamped the horse's belly tightly, picked up another flower with an upside-down golden hook, brushed off the flowers and leaves, wrapped the fishing line around the arrow wood with the broken arrowhead, stringed it again and shot at Gu Yu.
A gust of wind hit his ears again, and Gu Yu turned sideways to avoid it.
The crowd cheered again.
It’s not over yet!
Her temper was aroused.
She walked to Sima Guan on the side and asked Sima Guan to bring her a horse.
She turned over and got on the horse, riding towards the arena.
He didn't notice that behind him, a man walked out from the side of the stable. His face was wrapped in black gauze, and his two exposed eyes were sinister.
When Gu Yu arrived at the racecourse, he discovered that it was Xiao Xingzhi who was organizing the gambling game. It can be said that he showed his businessman's nature to the fullest.
She rode up to Xiao Xingzhi and said, "Xiao Xingzhi, put all your bets on me to win."
Xiao Xingzhi raised his head and hesitated: "Gu Yu, although we have a good relationship, can you face King Xiaoyao? He hasn't lost yet today."
Behind Xiao Xingzhi, a group of classmates from the Imperial College pressed on King Xiaoyao.
Gu Yu was so angry that he raised his riding whip as if to whip him.
Xiao Xingzhi hurriedly said: "Press, crush, crush, I'll crush you. I'll risk my life to accompany the prince."
Gu Yu rode his horse in.
The land of the Zhou Dynasty is filled with fortune-telling, and a feast is held on the floating cup. The fighting cocks eat cold food, and the horses shoot in front of the hall. The weeping willows and golden embankments are connected, and the flat sands and green curtains are connected. I wonder if Wang Yi Shao can meet all the wise men?
Archery on horseback has always been a custom in the Yu Dynasty, and the Imperial College also had two subjects: "imperialism" and "archery".
The difficulty of horseback archery is that you have to aim at the bull's-eye while jolting on the horse.
It is a huge test for vision, arm strength, balance, etc.
There are three targets in the middle of the arena. You ride around in a circle and shoot an arrow. If you hit any target, you pass the round.
The closer the arrow is to the center, the higher the score. Originally there were eight or nine people in a group, but after a few rounds, only Gu Yu and Xiaoyao Wang were left.
The two of you won't let me and I won't let you. The score is very tight.
The attendant kept taking arrows from the target and shouting the score.
Xiao Xingzhi felt that he was more excited than the two people on the court. You must know that nine out of ten people present had placed their bets on Xiaoyao King. If Gu Yu won, his stake could be doubled eight or nine times.
