Chapter 56: Phoenix Feather Pearl
Cheng Qian also congratulated Yan Canglan: "Congratulations to Brother Yan for your victory. This gift is indeed enviable. However, I am not discouraged. There is still a long way to go, and we still have plenty of opportunities to compete."
"Yan Canglan, you bastard, how dare you talk to this prince?" Pei Fukuan shouted angrily.
"I will talk to that bastard the same way he talks to me!" Everyone else is afraid of Pei Fukuan, the young master of the Princess's Mansion, but Yan Canglan is not afraid.
As soon as Yan Canglan said this, the atmosphere suddenly became tense. Cheng Qian saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly tried to smooth things over: "You two are both outstanding people, why bother arguing over such a small matter? Prince Pei, for Cheng's sake, please don't bother with the younger generation."
Pei Fukuan glared at Yan Canglan and snorted, "I'll remember what happened today! Yan Canglan, just wait, there will be a time when you'll beg me for help!"
Yan Canglan smiled disdainfully, with a hint of provocation in his eyes: "I'm waiting for that day! Pei Fukuan, if you have the ability, come and challenge me!"
The conversation between the two was full of tension, and Cheng Qian was secretly anxious, worried that the dispute would get out of control.
He decided to change the topic and try to ease the atmosphere: "You two, the outcome of today's game of pitching pots is still undecided, why don't you continue the competition?"
Yan Canglan and Pei Fukuan looked at each other and both felt that it was not appropriate to continue the fight at this moment. So, they both returned to the game of pitching pots, trying to prove their strength through the competition.
Here, Yan Canglan and Pei Fukuan have already started the competition. Each of them throws ten arrows to see who hits the most targets, and whoever hits the most targets wins.
On the pitching pot field, the two of them competed fiercely. Yan Canglan had sharp eyes and steady gestures, and each throw was accurate. Pei Fukuan relied on his extraordinary arm strength to gain an advantage in distance. The audience on the sidelines cheered for the two of them, and the atmosphere was lively.
However, during the competition, their eyes were always intertwined, and each was looking for the other's flaws. Yan Canglan knew that Pei Fukuan was not an easy person to deal with, and if he wanted to win this competition, he had to go all out.
Just when everyone thought Yan Canglan would lose, he suddenly changed his strategy and began to adopt flexible tactics. He no longer blindly pursued throwing accuracy, but cleverly adjusted the angle and strength to make the pot draw a beautiful arc in the air and finally fall accurately into the pot.
This trick really worked. Yan Canglan made several consecutive shots and reversed the score.
Pei Fukuan got anxious when he saw this and started to use too much force, causing the pot to deviate from its landing point. Yan Canglan took the opportunity to attack and eventually won the pot-to-pot competition by one pot.
Upon seeing this, the eldest princess immediately ordered two strong maids to capture Yan Canglan. Yan Shuqin finally squeezed in from the crowd.
She shouted, "Who dares to touch my brother! My brother is the eldest grandson of the Loyal and Brave Marquisate!"
Yan Shuqin's voice was clear and loud, instantly echoing in the quiet hall. Everyone's eyes were involuntarily focused on her. Her dress was gorgeous and her figure was graceful. Although she was still young, she already had the demeanor of a lady from a noble family.
The eldest princess' eyes were slightly stern. She didn't expect that such a little girl would dare to stand up for her brother in such an occasion. She chuckled and said, "Oh? The eldest grandson of the Loyal and Brave Marquis? So what? Can the people of the Loyal and Brave Marquis do whatever they want here?"
Yan Shuqin bit her lower lip tightly. She was afraid of the power of the eldest princess, but she couldn't just watch her brother being bullied. She straightened her back and said loudly, "Your Highness, my brother...he bumped into you accidentally, it was not intentional to offend you."
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became tense, and everyone couldn't help but secretly be shocked by Yan Shuqin's courage. The eldest princess's face became a little ugly. She didn't expect that a little girl would dare to contradict her like this.
At this moment, Yan Canglan suddenly broke free from the restraints of the nanny. He looked at the princess with a firm gaze and said loudly: "Your Highness, although I, Yan Canglan, am still young, I know that the glory of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion was earned with the blood of countless ancestors. I am willing to take all responsibilities, but I ask Your Highness not to damage the reputation of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion because of me."
Yan Canglan's voice was firm and powerful, and it moved everyone present. The princess couldn't help but look him up and down, with a hint of complex emotions flashing in her eyes.
She suddenly laughed, and her laughter echoed in the hall. She said, "Well, what a great grandson of the loyal and brave Marquis. Since you are so courageous, I will give you a chance. As long as you can complete the task I assign to you within three months, I will not pursue today's matter any further."
Yan Shuqin looked at the princess nervously, not knowing what kind of task her brother would face. Yan Canglan, on the other hand, looked determined. This was an opportunity, an opportunity to prove himself.
The princess looked at Yan Canglan with a hint of admiration in her eyes, and said softly, "Listen, I want you to help me find something within three months. This thing is very important to me. If you can find it, I will reward you handsomely."
Yan Canglan nodded. This opportunity was hard to come by, and he must seize it!
He took a deep breath and said respectfully, "Princess, please rest assured. I will do my best to live up to your trust."
The princess smiled slightly, with a hint of satisfaction in her eyes. She patted Yan Canglan's shoulder gently and said earnestly: "Okay, I believe you. This thing is called 'Phoenix Feather Pearl', it is an ancient heirloom, it is said to be able to bless our dynasty with peace and happiness for the people. It was originally left by my ancestors, but later lost among the people. Now, I need it to stabilize the court, you must help me find it."
A trace of doubt flashed across Yan Canglan's eyes. He had never heard of the Phoenix Feather Pearl, but he still replied in a deep voice: "Princess, I understand. I will set off immediately and look for the Phoenix Feather Pearl everywhere."
Yan Canglan traveled around, searching everywhere. He walked through the streets and alleys, asked countless people, but still could not find any clues about the Phoenix Wing Pearl. He was anxious, but he could not be impatient, otherwise it would only backfire.
One day, Yan Canglan came to an ancient temple. Looking at the plaque on the temple door, his heart moved. He remembered that the eldest princess had told him that the Phoenix Wing Pearl was related to the Buddhist holy land. So, he decided to enter the ancient temple to look for clues.
Yan Canglan walked into the ancient temple, where he saw incense smoke curling around and many believers. He came to the main hall and saw an old monk preaching. He decided to go up and ask for advice.
Yan Canglan walked up to the old monk and said respectfully, "Master, have you ever heard of the Phoenix Feather Pearl?"
The old monk smiled slightly, his eyes revealing a hint of depth, and he slowly said: "The Phoenix Feather Pearl is a divine object. According to legend, the Phoenix Feather Pearl is hidden in the holy land of Buddhism, and only those who are destined to find it can find it."
Yan Canglan was delighted when he heard this, and asked quickly, "Master, where is the Phoenix Feather Pearl hidden?"
The old monk shook his head and said mysteriously: "The exact hiding place of this Phoenix Feather Pearl is only known by heaven and earth. If you are destined, you will naturally find it."
