Chapter 153 The Emperor's Favored Concubine is Heartbroken (49)
It was obvious that Prince Jing lost again.
Round 4.
Huo Haochu also shot through the target, showing a very stable performance.
Prince Jing's performance was even worse than last time. He actually missed the target, and the long arrow finally glanced over the edge of the target and flew out at an angle.
Shen Qingjiao burst out laughing.
Prince Jing looked confident before the competition, but it turned out that his ability to withstand pressure was so poor.
The game was not even halfway through, but when he saw Huo Haochu winning one after another, his mentality collapsed. His aim was so poor that even his arrows missed the target. He was completely below standard and brought shame to the royal family.
With Prince Jing's mentality, he still has the courage to compete with Huo Haochu? It seems that Prince Jing doesn't understand himself yet.
As the saying goes, only when you know yourself and your enemy can you win every battle.
Prince Jing didn't even have his mindset figured out, but he was in a hurry to compete with Huo Haochu. This time, he might lose everything, both his reputation and his money.
……
After ten rounds, the result of the match was indisputable. Huo Haochu won all the rounds and won the match easily.
Prince Jing suffered a series of defeats and missed the target three times. Sweat was dripping from his forehead and his face was as white as paper.
Because Huo Haochu's performance was so outstanding, after the archery competition, many people rushed up to him and surrounded him, praising him.
"Young people are born with talent!"
"Your archery skills are too strong!"
Some female relatives even risked their lives to squeeze to the front, pulling Huo Haochu's sleeves and trying their best to sell their daughters.
"General Huo, I heard that you are still unmarried. My daughter is now in her twenties and is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. I wonder if you would like to meet her..."
Hearing this, Huo Haochu's face turned red. After saying "Excuse me" softly, he pulled his sleeve back from the noble lady's hand, turned around and left quickly.
Looking at the obvious embarrassment on Huo Haochu's face, Shen Qingjiao couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.
The young general now looks very uncomfortable, which is in stark contrast to his previous heroic and majestic appearance when he was shooting arrows. It is quite interesting to think about it.
Shen Qingjiao whispered a few words into Ye Junhong's ear.
"Your Majesty, I don't know whether Prince Jing forgot or did it on purpose. He lost the game and hasn't given the prize to General Huo yet."
"How about your majesty give General Huo something as a reward, and then remind Prince Jing to not forget to give the prize."
Upon hearing this, Ye Junhong couldn't help but laugh out loud, pinched Shen Qingjiao's soft and smooth little face, and said with a smile, "My beloved concubine is such a wonderful person."
After saying that, Ye Junhong called Prince Jing.
"Uncle, although there was no prize agreed upon before the match, General Huo won you after all, so I plan to give him a thousand-mile horse. What do you plan to give me, uncle?"
When Prince Jing heard this, his face turned red and white.
He intended to refuse, but the emperor had already made it clear that he would reward Huo Haochu.
If he didn't give anything, it would seem that as a prince of high status, he was unwilling to give even a little thing and had to rely on his nephew for charity. How could he save face?
Thinking of this, Prince Jing was upset and annoyed, but he could do nothing about it. He could only grit his teeth and said, "I am willing to give General Huo three hundred taels of silver as a token of respect."
Ye Junhong nodded with satisfaction, "That's great."
Hearing this, Shen Qingjiao immediately smiled with her eyes curved.
Prince Jing will challenge Huo Haochu to a contest in archery. It was all because of her, so she has to contribute at least a little to make sure Huo Haochu's work is in vain.
Afterwards, Ye Junhong called Huo Haochu and said, "General Huo, you are an excellent archer. I will reward you with a thousand-mile horse, and Prince Jing will give you three hundred taels of silver."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, and thank you, Prince Jing." Huo Haochu bowed and expressed his gratitude.
When he looked up again, his eyes seemed to linger on Concubine Shen for a moment as if inadvertently.
Was it the reward she asked for him?
Just now, he saw clearly that it was after Concubine Shen whispered a few words to the emperor that the emperor called Prince Jing to talk to him about the reward.
Prince Jing, who was standing opposite him, was not happy at all when he saw Huo Haochu saluting him. His eyes darkened and his expression changed again and again.
Not only did he suffer a financial loss, but more importantly, from now on, his reputation as "the best archer in the court" would have to be handed over to Huo Haochu. How could he be willing to accept this?
After thinking it over, he quickly came up with a cruel method that would ensure that Huo Haochu would be skinned alive!
Prince Jing waved his hand to call the attendant, whispered a few words to him, and the attendant immediately drove his horse back to the palace.
Early the next morning.
Emperor Ye Junhong led everyone and galloped towards the depths of the hunting ground again.
Shen Qingjiao was busy directing the imperial chef to process the prey captured last night, making it into stews, stir-fries, barbecues and other dishes.
time flies.
When the ingredients were almost processed, the sound of horse hooves could be heard not far away.
Shen Qingjiao looked up and saw that they had returned from hunting.
After everyone dismounted, they ordered their attendants to place the prey on the open ground. The prey included pheasants, foxes, gazelles, leopards, etc.
Prince Jing was the last to come back. He signaled the guards to put the prey on the ground.
When everyone saw it, they couldn't help but marvel at it, it turned out to be a golden monkey.
The golden monkey had golden fur, thick hair, a slender body, and looked to be an adult.
Ye Junchen, the Prince of Anling, exclaimed, "Uncle, how did you hunt the golden monkey? This creature is very agile and can cross mountains and forests as if walking on flat ground. Very few people can catch it."
Prince Jing laughed, "I just dug a trap in the forest, but I didn't expect the golden monkey to fall into the trap. This is also a kind of luck."
Looking at the golden monkey with its golden hair, Shen Qingjiao also became interested and couldn't help but take a few steps forward to take a closer look.
I saw that the golden monkey had a small head, a flat face, two shiny black eyes, and a furry tail.
The hair all over its body is golden, and under the sunlight, it looks like flowing golden silk, magnificent and captivating.
Suddenly, Shen Qingjiao heard a very short whistle.
Who is blowing the whistle?
She looked around but couldn't find him.
When she looked back, she suddenly discovered that the golden monkey's facial expression had changed and became ferocious.
Immediately afterwards, Shen Qingjiao heard a whistle that was even louder than before, and it disappeared in a flash.
She looked at the golden monkey again and found that it was even more aggressive. It was baring its teeth and its movements changed from squatting to crawling on all fours.
Shen Qingjiao dared to conclude that the two whistles just now must have been caused by someone secretly controlling the golden monkey.
This golden monkey definitely doesn't look like it was just captured from the wild. It must have been domesticated for a long time.
But the whistle was fleeting.
In such a short time, she couldn't tell who the whistleblower was from the crowd around her.
The crisis was about to come, but she didn't even know who the other party was.
Thinking of this, Shen Qingjiao's scalp suddenly tightened and her hair stood on end.
