The bow was in Lin Fanyun's hand. He looked it up and down for a long time and nodded.

Quite satisfied.

He wanted to open his mouth to comment, but thinking of what his grandfather told him before he left, he shut his mouth abruptly.

"Lord Shen, could you please help me adjust the bow?" He looked at Shen Zheng with a smile.

Before Shen Zheng nodded, Bao Cheng was pushed over by Yu Jiusi, "Master Bao is the military equipment supervisor, so he should be the one to adjust the bows."

Bao Cheng did not notice the undercurrent and said cheerfully, "I'll do it, I'll do it."

Lin Fanyun couldn't refuse, so he had to cooperate with Bao Cheng to adjust the bow. The tension screw was turned almost to the limit, and the counterweight was also increased by 20%.

He weighed the bow, stood sideways, and got into position.

Judging from his appearance and demeanor, he actually fits Shen Zheng's idea of a "young general".

But in the ranking...Yu Jiusi is still first.

Yu Jiusi has the passion and ambition of a young man, and he will never be careless when it comes to having fun.

Lin Fanyun is more stable, and has a maturity that does not match his age.

"When Fan Yun was young, he practiced archery. His bow was like a full moon and his arrows were like shooting stars." Lu Botang's eyes were full of admiration for his juniors: "Today's first prize, I think... it should be Fan Yun's."

Yu Nanshu snorted softly, and united the brothers and sisters at the critical moment: "My brother is also very powerful, and his arrows never miss their targets!"

Yu Jiusi crossed his arms and nodded with satisfaction.

Cui Jinyin curled her lips.

She wanted to criticize Yu Nanshu, but she really didn't want to praise Lin Fanyun.

If it were someone else competing, she would definitely praise him harshly to dampen Yu Nanshu's arrogance!

Isn't it just a brother? She also has an uncle!

"bass--"

The sound of breaking wind was heard, and everyone looked over and saw that the arrow had firmly pierced the center of the yellow. It was a "hit", and score was five points.

Lin Fanyun was also the first archer to "hit the target with one strike" on the field. As a descendant of a military family, he was indeed quite capable.

He took out a feather arrow from the quiver, his expression unchanged, narrowed his eyes slightly, and shot the next two feather arrows in succession.

Neutral.

Neutral.

Even the bull's eye painted with yellow paint was shot a little loose.

Lu Botang shouted: "Three consecutive hits, fifteen points!"

Lin Fanyun's lips curled up slightly.

Both the bow and the pressure were given to Yu Jiusi.

Yu Nanshu pursed her lips, went over and whispered to comfort him: "It's okay, brother, you are the best in my heart. I have a good relationship with Sister Shen, so let's just treat it as fun today, ah——"

Yu Jiusi hit her head and made it burst.

"It is a taboo in the military to admit defeat before the battle. Don't you trust me, your brother?"

Looking at the three feather arrows placed closely together on the straw target, Yu Nanshu sighed.

Laymen watch the excitement, experts watch the doorway. She herself is half an expert, so she knows that Lin Fanyun's three arrows are extraordinary.

"Sister Zheng, tune in." Yu Jiusi called Shen Zheng but his eyes were fixed on Lin Fanyun, his little thoughts were obvious.

Shen Zheng smiled and walked forward to help him adjust the bow. Cui Jinyin's eyes rolled, and it was unknown what he was thinking about.

"I have an idea!"

Yu Nanshu immediately responded: "No one wants to know."

Cui Jinyin had learned her lesson and ignored her words, saying to herself, "Shen, Lord Shen, didn't you accept the job of the charity? I heard that all officials in the court had to pay fines to beggars like Ah Wu."

Shen Zheng lowered her head to adjust the bow and nodded, "It's about right, what's wrong?"

"Then let's add a prize today! The winner will receive the prizes, but they must all be donated to charity!" Cui Jinyin took off all the headdresses in one go, and her hands could hardly hold them all. "These are my prizes. I bet... General Lin will win first!"

Shen Zheng paused.

Cui Jinyin...is she a philanthropic genius?

Even charity competition fundraising has been thought of!

While increasing the fun of the game, resources are also invested and converted into public welfare funds. As far as she knows, "charity golf tournaments" and "charity horse races" were very popular among the rich in the past, but the flow of funds is questionable.

But now we live in an imperial society!

Look up and you're in the emperor's place; look down and you're in the courtroom. It's a charity competition, there's something to it!

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Cui Jinyin shrank her hand holding the jewelry, "Is it not possible..."

She finally had some ideas of her own.

Is it really just as my grandfather said, a girl should just be a good wife and not have any other thoughts?

But my uncle recently said that we should think first and make plans before taking action.

Which one is correct?

Just when Cui Jinyin was lost in confusion, Shen Zheng had already put her own money bag on the line, "Okay, I'll bet on Jiusi to win. This is all the money I have, not as much as you do, aren't you afraid of being unfair?"

This was her first time "betting and gambling", and she was a little excited.

Cui Jinyin raised her head suddenly, her eyes showing cautious joy: "You said yes?"

"Okay, okay, okay! Did you hear me?" Yu Nanshu leaned close to her ear and yelled, taking off the bracelet and earrings from her wrist. "You golden head. I bet on my brother, but I didn't bet as much as you did. Don't cry if you lose."

When others saw Shen Zheng placing the bet, they followed suit.

Lu Botang put the ring into the plate and bet on Lin Fanyun to take the first place.

Lin Fanyun put down the jade pendant and purse and pledged himself.

Yu Jiusi was just like him, using the jade pendant and money bag as collateral.

Bao Cheng put the money bag away and followed Shen Zheng to escort Yu Jiusi.

After several people finished their escort, Shen Zheng specifically said to the archery examiner and the military equipment supervisor: "This matter should be done according to your ability. Don't feel burdened. It's okay if you don't escort."

Everyone has different family backgrounds and salaries, so their economic abilities naturally vary.

Expressing their gratitude for Shen Zheng's special care, they discussed the matter.

"Sir Shen, all of us in the Armory have bet five taels of silver, and General Yu is the winner."

Although General Ya Yu might offend General Lin, they have been interacting with Lord Shen for the past few days and have found that the latter is knowledgeable and always answers questions, which makes them admire him from the bottom of their hearts.

Besides...didn’t Bao Jian also take General Yu into custody?

No matter who the generals are, just follow Lord Shen. Whether you win or lose, you will donate money and do good deeds.

Carrying everyone's expectations, Yu Jiusi took a deep breath and took out three feather arrows from his quiver under everyone's gaze.

Everyone was shocked, only Shen Zheng nodded at him.

When Yu Jiusi asked to adjust the arrow stand just now, she vaguely guessed what Yu Jiusi was going to do.

Shoot three arrows in succession in the shortest possible time, and there is a chance that the arrow will hit the bull's eye.

This is also a common "dense hitting" technique in archery competitions.

Seeing this, Lin Fanyun's expression darkened. "Brother Yu, there is no need to do this. A hasty shot is likely to deflect, and it is not a safe method. I advise you to..."

If the opponent misses the target, he wins without fighting, which is not good.

"Since we are just having fun, we must have some new moves, otherwise everyone will get bored." Yu Jiusi interrupted him and said, "If it were in the army or on the battlefield, I wouldn't be so radical, but today we are just testing the bow, for fun, what's wrong with that?"
