Yao Yao stayed here and refused to leave.

The prince repeatedly hinted to Yao Yao to leave, but Yao Yao pretended not to understand.

She watched the play with a sense of superiority, like a wife watching over her husband, or like a God in charge of the overall situation.

Fortunately, Yao Yao intentionally or unintentionally blocked the prince's attempt to get close to Chu Jing, so Chu Jing was able to quickly escape.

This prince is just like a dog-skin plaster.

She was so affectionate and smiling, it really gave people goosebumps.

Chu Jing was enjoying the flowers with some sisters when she suddenly heard a commotion on the terrace by the water.

Several people rushed over to take a look.

A young man in gorgeous clothes held a bow in one hand and an arrow in the other, while opposite him stood a man in plain clothes.

The man in plain clothes held a colorful ball in his hands, with a sad face, trembling legs, and looked extremely scared.

The man holding the bow was still shouting, "What are you waiting for! Put the ball on your head!"

"If I hit the ball, you'll have to lead my horse for three days. If I miss, I'll give you this jade pendant!"

From the people watching the excitement around, Chu Jing learned that the man with the ball was a child from a poor family.

Chu Jing had also heard of the man with the bow. He was a playboy in the capital who often bullied people for fun. When he met someone with a lower family background than him, he would tease him, but when he met someone with a better family background than him, he would keep his tail between his legs.

The poor boy today was unlucky as he was targeted by this playboy.

If he were to hit the target, his life would be safe, but he would have to hold his horse for three days. It is said that a soldier can be killed but not humiliated. Isn't this an insult?

If it missed, who knew where it would have hit? If it had hit a vital part, it would have been fatal!

Even if a jade pendant is priceless, what is it worth?

Under the pressure from the man over there, he could only tremblingly push the ball onto his head.

The ball was already on his head, and the dandy had a smug smile on his face. He raised the bow and was about to draw the arrow when suddenly someone shouted loudly.

"This is interesting!" Chu Jing stood out from the crowd and walked towards the dandy.

Chu Jing looked at the dandy and then at the poor kid who was heading the ball, and said, "This looks fun. I want to try it too!"

The dandy was also stunned when he saw Chu Jing, then he put down his bow, smiled apologetically, and walked over to ask flatteringly, "Is Princess Anyang also interested in this?"

He ordered someone to immediately fetch a bow and arrow, and presented it with both hands, "Since the princess is interested in this, why don't you try it."

After saying this, he turned around and scolded the poor boy: "Look at you, you coward! Hurry up and stand still, and be a target for Princess Anyang!"

Chu Jing walked over to where the dandy had been standing. Looking at the poor boy who looked ready to die, he frowned in dissatisfaction, "Who is this guy? He's just a nobody. How can he be my target?"

Chu Jing's eyes turned cunningly, and he smiled and raised his chin to the dandy, "You go!"

The dandy was horrified. He swallowed hard and said in a trembling voice, "Me?"

"Princess, please don't scare me. I am thin and frail, how can I be a target for you? Or..."

Chu Jing interrupted him, "So he's worthy? I think he's even thinner than you!"

She seemed a little impatient and said arrogantly, "You go! Hurry up!"

Everyone around was dumbfounded. They originally thought that the little bully had attracted the big bully to bully people together.

How did it suddenly become a situation where the big bully bullied the small bully?

What do you call this? Evildoers will be punished by evildoers?

The dude didn't dare to disobey, so he could only take the ball and stand where the poor boy had just stood, his legs trembling and his face pale.

Even more cowardly than that poor kid just now.

If it was anyone else in the Xia family, it would be fine. They all can shoot accurately from a hundred paces away and never miss a shot, but it had to be Xia Chujing.

He couldn't even swing a whip, let alone draw a bow and shoot an arrow.

The dude wanted to beg for mercy, but just as he opened his mouth, he saw Chu Jing had already raised the bow, held the arrow, and was about to draw the bow.

Everyone was sweating with fear, stretching their necks and staring intently.

Just when I thought Chu Jing was going to draw the bow, I saw her put it down again.

She tilted her head, as if remembering something, and said, "I'd better set a prize, so that others won't say that I bullied you."

She thought for a moment and said, "How about this. If I hit the target, I'll give you one of my hairpins. If I miss, we'll switch places. I'll hold the ball on my head and you'll pull the bow!"

When everyone heard this, there was an uproar.

What a rogue clause.

Although a hairpin is a woman's personal belonging, giving it to a man outside her family might imply a private relationship, but she is Xia Chujing! How could she possibly hit it?

If you can't shoot... If you can't shoot, who would dare to let Princess Anyang head the ball? I'm afraid she doesn't want to live anymore and wants people to tear down her ancestral home and ancestral hall!

Chu Jing didn't care what others were discussing. She was already ready to draw her bow and shoot arrow again.

She stared ahead, aimed the arrow at the dandy, and slowly drew the bow.

The dandy looked at the arrow pointing at him as if he could already see the arrowhead hitting his head. He was sweating profusely, his legs were weak, and his whole body was shaking like a sieve.

But Chu Jing was still pulling the bow slowly, which made people even more nervous.

Before Chu Jing could fully draw the bow.

The dude's legs went limp, and a stream of urine dripped down, soaking his pants.

The people around burst into laughter.

Chu Jing raised his eyebrows, then put down his bow with a look of disgust, "Useless thing! Do you look down on my archery skills so much?"

When Chu Jing put down the bow, the dandy's legs completely went limp and he fell onto the wet mass.

Everyone around pointed at him and laughed.

The dandy was so ashamed and angry that he wanted to die. He wanted to turn around and jump into the stream and escape.

"It's really useless!" At this time, another person came out from the crowd.

When everyone looked over, it turned out to be Xie Qiheng, the prince of Cheng Wang who had just returned to the capital recently!

Xie Qiheng wore a jade crown and had his hair tied up. He was tall and handsome. He had a smile on his face, and he looked like a young man full of vigor and vitality.

It attracted the attention of many women.

"I wonder if I could give it a try?"

Chu Jing didn't understand what he meant for a moment, and didn't know why he showed up now.

Someone asked, "How does the prince want to try it?"

Xie Qiheng winked at his attendant guard, who immediately threw a colorful ball.

Xie Qiheng caught the ball with one hand, spinning it, and looked at Chu Jing with a burning gaze, "This prince will serve as a target for the princess, are you willing?"

Chu Jing pursed her lips, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

She had practiced archery a little these days, but not only did she often miss the target, it was even difficult for her to hit the fifth or sixth ring.

She just wanted to save someone in need and never intended to actually shoot the arrow!

Chu Jing declined, "Anyang's archery skills are poor, so it's better not to embarrass himself in front of everyone."

However, Xie Qiheng refused to give in. He also walked away, standing at a distance about the same distance as the dandy, and said to Chu Jing:

"I am very interested in the bet you just mentioned! Please give me some arrows!"

Everyone hissed.

bet?

What's the stakes?

Is it the princess's hairpin, or the princess heading the ball?
