Chapter 98: Serving as the Head Husband
As expected, Chu Xi won. She won easily, with impeccable speed and accuracy.
Every shot hits the target.
Qi Minsong also hit the bull's eye, but his last arrow was shot one second late and hit the bull's eye. It was this arrow that determined the outcome.
After he shot the arrow, a lot of sweat broke out on his forehead, but Chu Xi looked much more relaxed, and he was not nervous at all despite competing with others repeatedly.
Tang Yuhuai was happier than Chu Xi, as if he was the winner. As for Rong Qingzhu, he always looked at Chu Xi with recognition and appreciation.
This was the first time that Rong Yunlan saw Chu Xi at such a close distance. In the past, she thought that Tang Yuhuai with his dancing eyebrows was like the sun in the morning, the only color she saw.
Now it seems that there are still many people in this world who live more brilliantly than the sunlight. The brilliant light is so dazzling that many people cannot open their eyes or look away.
Feng Miaoyi used to think that the most interesting person in the capital was Tang Yuhuai. As the descendant of a military general, she naturally would not like literati, but Tang Yuhuai... the rumors about him in the market were not very good.
There have been rumors in the streets that he has a lover in Ningxiang Tower. Whether it is true or not, he has been visiting prostitutes all year round. Even if he doesn't have three or four concubines in the backyard, I'm afraid he must have several lovers outside.
Feng Miaoyi knew that this man would inevitably have several concubines and maids, but every woman would have expectations for her future husband.
This expectation will naturally lead to an inventory of the children of aristocratic families in the capital. Among them, there are only a few most outstanding and popular ones, and the question is who will get the popular ones first.
Being in the limelight will naturally attract attention, and the topic of His Majesty and others began to revolve around Chu Xi, especially Chu Qibai, who was the eldest son of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery and had such great martial arts skills, so it was natural that he would be given an official position.
Prime Minister Rong received a letter from Chu Xi yesterday. He has always remembered that Prince Chu saved his son, although he doesn't understand why Chu Qibai has to go to Xi'an to join the army.
But out of gratitude to Chu Qibai, he still planned to help, "Your Majesty, Prince Chu was trained by the old marquis himself. His martial arts are so amazing, so he should be placed in a suitable place."
The eyes of Emperor Tianwu have become even darker in the past two days. Ever since the Japanese delegation sent eight beauties, this has become a serious matter. In the past, he had barely known to be restrained and ensured that he could...wait until the elixir of immortality was made.
As a result, after these eight beauties entered the palace, Emperor Tianwu had been making noises until 3:15 a.m. for several days in a row, and he yawned and looked listless when he attended court.
He is full of energy as soon as he gets off the court, and wishes he could drown in the land of pleasure.
In just a few days, his body was drained away, and the people around him did not dare to speak up easily. Once they did, the Emperor Tianwu, whose temper became increasingly bad, would take it out on them.
Faced with the prime minister's words, he had no time to think about defense at this moment. He only thought about how to end this event as soon as possible and return to the palace to meet the beauty.
"It's really good." His Majesty said this without really thinking.
"In this case, why not let Prince Chu serve the country? I believe Prince Chu must have the idea of serving the country, so why not let Prince Chu go out of the capital to gain some experience."
This statement is quite clear. Going out of the capital to gain some experience actually means placing Chu Qibai in various armies.
General Tang, who was sitting on the other side, and Prime Minister Rong were looking at each other from a distance. Prime Minister Rong rarely cared about such things, but suddenly he spoke up for Chu Qibai...
General Tang seemed to be thinking about something. It happened that His Majesty was not listening to the Prime Minister's words seriously at this moment. Besides, he thought it would be a good idea to release him out of the capital so that he would not have to stay with Zhou Yichen. Zhou Yichen would then have an extra helper.
"The Prime Minister is right." His Majesty stared at Chu Qibai, who was in the limelight, with a cloudy gaze, and suddenly an idea came to his mind, "How about this, let Chu Jiang go to Xi'an and serve as a centurion."
He had already arranged a man under the eldest prince to serve as the city defender, and now he arranged Chu Qibai to serve as the centurion. One was from the eldest prince's camp, and the other was from the King of Yan.
This way they can guard against each other and exercise checks and balances. Anyway, there is the eldest prince's people in command, so it is estimated that Chu Qibai will have difficulty in getting promoted. Naturally, there is no need to worry about another old loyal and brave marquis coming to annoy him.
As they were talking, Chu Xi had already decided on the place and position he wanted to arrange for him.
General Tang glanced at Prime Minister Rong silently. His Majesty's plan was almost slapping him in the face. It was so obvious that he wanted to check and balance each other and didn't want Chu Qibai to be too prominent.
He was not surprised by His Majesty's actions. Everyone was aware of His Majesty's precautions against military generals. The only thing he didn't understand was why Prime Minister Rong didn't speak up for the Prince of Chu when such an obvious action was taken?
If the Prince of Chu really wants to make achievements and establish himself in a place where there is so much intrigue, it will not be enough to just guard against others and fight against them, let alone achieve success.
General Tang didn't understand what Prime Minister Rong was planning for the time being. He could only observe Prime Minister Rong's expression, but he couldn't tell what was going on.
As for the several princes nearby who wanted to stop him, they saw that although he was a prince, he was only assigned the position of a centurion, with only a hundred people under him, and he didn't even have a rank.
They were too lazy to stop it. Zhou Yichen didn't have many trusted confidants around him, and Chu Qibai was his biggest help. If they could really drive Chu Qibai all the way to Xi'an City, they would save a lot of effort.
Thinking of this, those who wanted to stop him kept silent. The eldest prince just smiled and drank without saying a word. Anyway, Chu Qibai would go there to help his men.
What does he have to worry about? As long as he wants, it will be possible for him to kill Chu Qibai.
Chu Qibai noticed the movement on the stage and raised his eyes to look towards His Majesty and the others. From a distance, Prime Minister Rong seemed to have noticed something and met his gaze.
Prime Minister Rong smiled slightly.
"Brother Qibai is so awesome." Zhou Qingmin unconsciously spoke her true feelings to the maid next to her.
But her seemingly unintentional words were not what others saw. She already had feelings for Chu Qibai, and after she said this, everyone would think that the Ninth Princess was deeply in love with Chu Qibai.
Next, it’s hunting.
The hunting team is divided into several teams. Chu Xi, Tang Yuhuai and Rong Qingzhu automatically form a team. As for the people from other delegations, they can also form a team. Anyway, the final judge of the hunting will be based on how many prey each person hunts.
During Chu Xi's hunting, she shot one arrow at a time. She also had extraordinary hearing, so she could hear the movement from afar, chase after it, fly over with light skills, and shoot another arrow.
When the last number was counted, Chu Xi was the first again.
The number is half more than the second place, but she can hunt so many prey in the same amount of time, which shows how good her horse archery is.
