Get the golden finger at the beginning: Enjoy the journey of escaping from the famine

Prime Minister Zhu stroked his gray beard, glanced at Duke Dingguo's face, and quickly looked away.

"Prime Minister, what does that look of yours mean?"

His look of disdain was caught by Duke Dingguo, who immediately became furious.

Prime Minister Zhu was not angry when he saw how angry he was. Instead, he smiled and said, "I am old now. Sometimes this look is useless."

Seeing that the two of them were about to move again, Xie Yunci spoke up, "Okay, my two beloved ministers, the results are about to come out."

Shen Li shot out ten arrows, with the bow and arrow hanging on the horse, and looked at Saihan.

Princess Saihan had just shot five arrows when she saw Shen Lisheng's speed and accuracy. She bit her lower lip and wanted to speed up.

The next second, when I saw a pigeon falling from the sky, I immediately gave up the idea.

She took a few deep breaths and ejaculated one by one. After seeing Shen Li finish ejaculating, she couldn't help but feel a little anxious. She knew that she might not win this round.

"Hey~"

As the last arrow was shot, Saihan knew that she had lost.

It was her who underestimated the enemy.

"Princess Hui'an, I didn't expect you to have such a skill."

Shen Li smiled faintly, "The princess didn't ask either."

Saihan bit his lip and said, "I lost today's match. I accept the defeat."

"The results haven't come out yet. It's too early for Princess to say this."

After Shen Li finished speaking, she rode her horse back, and Princess Saihan followed with a grim look on her face.

Shen Li had no intention of appeasing her opponent. She also realized that Princess Saihan was a brainless person and was probably being used by someone with ulterior motives.

However, even after defeating her, Shen Li would not reconcile with her. From the very beginning, Princess Saihan had been targeting her.

If she was really a peasant girl, she would have lost face today. Not only would she lose face for herself, but also for Pei Yu, the King of Jingnan.

As for who instigated it, it is not difficult to guess.

The young eunuch had already ordered people to pick up the pigeons that the two girls had shot down. When he went over to take a look, he could tell clearly at a glance without even having to count them.

All ten red arrows shot by Princess Hui'an hit their targets, and three of them had two pigeons on them.

Even he, who doesn't know much about sword and archery, couldn't help but praise this sword and archery skill as great.

Princess Saihan shot five pigeons and it was not unfair for her to lose.

He trotted to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, Princess Hui'an shot thirteen pigeons, and Princess Saihan shot five pigeons. Princess Hui'an won."

"it is good."

Xie Yunci looked at the two women standing in front of him and asked the eunuch to announce the result loudly.

The young eunuch shouted shrilly: "In the second round of archery competition, Princess Hui'an won."

Not being able to hear the whispers of the people around him, Xie Yunci asked, "There is one last written test left. Does Princess Saihan want to compete?"

Princess Saihan shook her head. "No need, Northern Emperor. It's best of three. Princess Hui'an has already won two games. I'm willing to accept the loss."

"Well, as expected of a princess who grew up on horseback, you are so open-minded."

Xie Yunci first praised Princess Saihan, then looked at Shen Li: "Princess Hui'an won the competition, what reward do you want?"

Shen Li looked at Princess Saihan and said, "Your Majesty, I don't need any other rewards. There are stakes in this competition."

"Well, this reminds me, Princess Hui'an, Princess Saihan, what is the stake you two are betting on?"

Shen Li: "Your Majesty, the princess used fifty horses and two hundred sheep as gambling stakes. A person like the princess will definitely not go back on her word."

Saihan: “…”

"Yes, I won't regret it. Saihan will arrange for someone to send him to the border town. Please ask Beihuang to arrange for someone to pick him up."

Xie Yunci: "I will arrange it, Princess, don't worry."

After saying that, he looked at the imperial concubine beside him, "Imperial concubine, where is the thing you won?"

The imperial concubine's face was full of smiles. "Your Majesty, the things have not been delivered yet. I was able to win thanks to Princess Hui'an. I will give her a share."

Shen Li looked over and met the imperial concubine's eyes. There was no malice in her eyes, and she also released a few traces of kindness.

"In that case, thank you very much, Madam Royal Concubine."

She did not refuse. Since she was going to live in the capital in the future, she couldn't have only enemies around her.

What's more, this imperial concubine doesn't look simple. Just because she can win the emperor's favor and make the emperor so nervous, she is not simple.

The ladies of the noble families and noble girls below have now divided into two factions. One faction thinks that Shen Li is not worthy of being on the stage, while the other faction thinks that Princess Hui'an is very heroic and worth making friends with.

Princess Su Rina, who was standing in the corner, also looked at Shen Li a few more times. She thought she was useless, but she didn't expect that the Princess of Hui'an County was not a fool.

Everyone chatted for a few more words, and after Xie Yunci took the imperial concubine away, everyone else also dispersed.

Shen Li and Pei Yu walked out side by side, which attracted many people's attention. They didn't expect that King Jingnan loved this woman so much and was willing to walk side by side with her.

"Ali, I will find out who is behind this incident where Saihan is targeting you."

Shen Li shook her head. "No need to check. I saw Bai Shuran during the competition. It must be her."

"She's here too. This Lord Bai is really useless. He can't even take care of his own daughter."

"Don't worry, I'll go have some tea with Master Bai later."

"Where is the concubine?"

Pei Yu's lips curled slightly, "Don't worry about that. Imperial Concubine is fine. You may not know since you came out of the capital, but Imperial Concubine is now at odds with the Bai family."

"Why?"

He also said that one of their daughters had become a royal concubine, and the Bai family should treat her with respect.

"I just heard it from someone. Empress Feifei was born to Lord Bai's original wife, and Miss Bai Er and Mr. Bai were both born to his current wife."

After hearing his words, Shen Li was able to figure out what had happened.

Living in a large mansion, she lost her mother at a young age, and was given the title of the eldest daughter but had no ability to protect herself. If her biological father was a useless person, one can imagine what kind of life she had lived over the years.

Now Shen Li could figure it out. At the banquet last night, the imperial concubine seemed quite excited to see Bai Shuran in trouble.

The reason why Shen Li used the word "excited" was because the smile on the imperial concubine's mouth and in her eyes could not be hidden at all.

No, maybe she never thought about hiding at all.

"Come on, I'll show you around so you can get familiar with the environment."

Shen Li paused and wanted to say, maybe I know it better than you.

Her mental power was not to be played with. When she first arrived, she used her mental power to carefully explore the area. Now she is very familiar with the surrounding environment.

However, he did not reject Pei Yu's kindness. He was a little busy these two days, so when he had time, he would naturally stay together and cultivate their relationship.
