Chapter 1277: Fatal Dart Throwing Competition
Bei Manji's face froze slightly. She hadn't expected Yun Mujiu to be so blunt. After a long pause, she whispered, "How could that be, Princess Ye? We really want to see your presentation."
Yun Mujiu raised his lip and asked, "Really?"
She smiled and continued, "But I really want to see your performance. Princess Manji has come from afar, so please set an example for us."
Bei Manji hesitated, and Yun Mujiu asked directly, "What does Princess Manji want to show?"
Bei Manji recalled the excellent skills that Yun Mujiu had demonstrated in various large occasions before, including playing the piano, dancing, archery, painting, singing, etc.
She pursed her lips and asked tentatively, "How about shooting darts?"
I seem to have heard that when Yun Mujiu first married into the Ye Palace, she was almost attacked by a dart thrown by a mysterious man in black when the Tianwen students were causing trouble.
"Okay!" Yun Mujiu responded straightforwardly, shocking Bei Manji, as well as the Queen and the other spectators.
"Then let's have a dart shooting competition! It's interesting!" Yun Mujiu stood up decisively and walked towards Bei Manji who was sitting opposite him.
Under the surprised gaze of the crowd, Yun Mujiu pulled Bei Manji onto the stage.
Yun Mujiu asked generously, "What are the rules?"
Bei Manji raised her lip and replied, "With a limited number of darts, let's compete to see our hit rate."
As she spoke, Bei Manji turned around and asked the Beihan envoys to deliver the props.
A round wooden target, the same height as a person, with a small hole dotted with red sand in the center. Around the center, there are circles and rings.
There were two other trays, each containing several darts. These were bare darts, like small poles, without any other decorations, short and simple, with a small red string tied at the end.
Yun Mujiu nodded thoughtfully. The people in the audience had different expressions. Princess Ji Ling tilted her head back, looking anxious.
A group of people led by Princess Ji Ling and including Bai Yanshuang and Luo Yan were still very worried about Yun Mujiu.
Although they had indeed seen Yun Mujiu's superb archery skills before, there was still a difference between archery and dart throwing. Darts were smaller and there were more things to consider. Compared to long-distance archery, long-distance dart throwing was much more dangerous. Each dart was so sharp that it emitted a cold light.
Bai Yanshuang asked Ji Ling and Luo Yan, "Can Mu Jiu throw darts?"
The two girls shook their heads: "I don't know either. I've never seen Mu Jiu throw it."
Bai Yan frowned, her tone tinged with worry. "Me too. And I've only taught Mu Jiu how to use the Red Flower Spear. I haven't taught him anything like throwing darts accurately."
Bai Yanshuang turned her head to look at Bei Liyi opposite her, and found that an indescribable smile crossed that person's face, and her heart felt inexplicably uneasy.
She looked back again and found that one of Yun Mujiu's personal maids was missing. It seemed that Dong Yu had gone to report the news to Prince Ye again.
On the high platform, Bei Manji smiled gently with her red lips curled up. If you didn't know her, you would think she was a winner.
Yun Mujiu clapped his hands and praised, "Not bad. It seems that Princess Manji is determined to win."
Bei Manji raised her chin and said, "We in the mountainous Beihan region mainly rely on hunting, so actions like capturing prey by throwing darts are quite common."
"Awesome." Yun Mujiu rolled up his wide sleeves and strode towards Bei Manji.
Bei Manji was stunned for a moment, and found herself being pushed in front of the huge target by Yun Mujiu!
Bei Manji was stunned to find that she was standing right in the center of the target, as if she had become the target in the center of the target.
"Don't move." Yun Mujiu put his hands on Bei Manji's shoulders.
Yun Mujiu raised her eyebrows and shouted to the audience, "Yan Shuang, give me a peach."
As soon as she finished speaking, a big peach was thrown at her face.
Yun Mujiu took the peach with one hand, then turned around and placed the peach upside down on the top of Bei Manji's head.
Bei Manji became even more uneasy: "Princess Ye, what do you mean?"
"Don't move." Yun Mujiu's big hands were like pliers, tightly clamping the person who was twisting his body.
Yun Mujiu said, "Since it was the princess who proposed the competition, then the content of the competition should be decided by me. This is called fairness, a give-and-take. I don't think the princess will veto it, right?"
This one sentence put Princess Manji in a good position. If you think about it carefully, you will find that what she said makes sense. If it comes to a competition, both parties should have a certain say and initiative.
Bei Manji still wanted to struggle, but found that she could not move significantly.
Yun Mujiu chuckled and whispered in Bei Manji's ear, "Princess, you don't think I'm the kind of person who can be drugged so easily, do you?"
Bei Manji's face immediately changed, and she looked as if she had swallowed a fly. She had never thought that when she was admiring the flowers just now, she had deliberately approached Yun Mujiu and drugged him with the flower-scented drug, but she had been discovered by that damn girl without knowing when.
Considering that she couldn't move at all now, could it be that Yun Mujiu had already given her another drug back then? Was the delicate fragrance of the flowers at that time fake? Was it actually the scent of the drug that Yun Mujiu deliberately released?
Bei Manji wanted to open her mouth to continue speaking, but found that her throat seemed to be stuck and she couldn't move at all.
Yun Muji said loudly, "Princess Manji agrees with my proposal. Then I will compete first, and Princess Manji will be my assistant."
"Besides, if I had won directly, Princess Manji wouldn't have gone through so much trouble to compete again later."
She wants to decide the outcome in one round.
One audience member opened his mouth and muttered, "What if you lose, Princess?" Will Princess Manji be shot to death on the stage?
Eh, it seems like no matter who wins or who loses, Princess Ye is definitely the winner...
Yun Mujiu pressed the peach again, making the tip of the peach face up, and it landed steadily on the top of Bei Manji's head.
He turned around and strode away.
After a while, when he turned around again, he smiled faintly at Bei Manji who had a frightened expression.
Bei Liyi realized something was wrong, stood up suddenly, and shouted: "Ye..."
"Shh!" Yun Mujiu didn't give him a chance to speak. "Don't disturb me. If my hands shake and something happens, whoever disturbs me will be held fully responsible."
With Yun Mujiu's words, even someone as noble as the queen would be unable to speak at this moment.
"Princess Liyi, don't worry, you will have a chance to play later."
Bei Liyi opened her mouth in panic and shook her head repeatedly.
Yun Mujiu ignored the flustered Bei Liyi and said to everyone, "Let's use Princess Manji as the target for the competition. If I don't hit Princess Manji but everyone hits the wooden target with their darts, I win."
Then, Yun Mujiu took the tray held by the servant, took out a white hairband from his sleeve with his bare hands, tied the hairband and covered his eyes with it with one hand.
There was another burst of exclamations from all around.
It was already shocking that Yun Mujiu accepted the dart throwing competition. It was also scary that Yun Mujiu suddenly used Princess Beihan as a target, not to mention that Yun Mujiu was standing so far away and throwing darts blindfolded. It was really scary!
Some people opened their eyes wide, stunned with fear.
Some people were stunned on the spot, shocked and at a loss.
Some people covered their eyes, not daring to watch the bloody scene that followed!
