"My God, they got all three rings in one go! That's incredible!"

“I tried it before, and even after aiming for a long time, I could only touch the edge. But the King of Chu just glanced at it and got it on perfectly, all three rings at once. If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t have believed it!”

A series of exclamations erupted from the crowd, who thought it was truly amazing. They had initially thought that the ring toss was so difficult because it was deliberately designed to prevent anyone from getting it.

At this moment, everyone finally understood that it wasn't that they weren't allowed to trap the target, but that they simply didn't have the ability to do so!

Seeing Chu Junting's move, Chu Tianche almost lost his smile, and his heart was filled with shock.

How on earth did this guy do it?

I intended to make Chu Junting lose face today, but I never expected him to put on such a big show...

“My brother has always been excellent in this regard and is invincible on the battlefield. This little thing may be difficult for others, but it is nothing to my brother.”

Chu Yungui had a big smile on his face, looking even more smug than if he had tricked the trap himself.

"Second brother, fourth brother, why don't you give it a try too?"

The four Song brothers: What a brilliant strategy of killing someone by destroying their spirit!

Chu Tianche looked embarrassed and waved his hand, saying, "I've never been interested in this kind of thing. Why don't you try it, Fourth Brother? Try putting three rings on at the same time. I wonder if you've ever tried it before?"

Chu Xinliang's expression was also not good. He had always been very confident in his accuracy, but who would have thought that Chu Junting would hit all three at once? He didn't have that ability either.

“I knew my brother was powerful before, but today I have witnessed it firsthand,” Chu Xinliang said.

Chu Yungui smiled smugly and comforted him, "Fourth brother, you're already very capable, but everyone knows how skilled my third brother is, so there's no need to feel regretful!"

Chu Xinliang: "..."

As the stall owner handed the token over, Chu Junting gave it to Song Ruozhen again, saying, "Keep it safe."

Looking at the token that was almost identical to the one used in the previous pitch-pot game, but with "Son of the Ring Toss" written on it, Song Ruozhen smiled faintly, finding today particularly interesting.

"Let's go, let's go to the next place," Chu Yungui said with a smile.

As the Song family members left, Chu Yungui looked at Chu Tianche and his brother, "My two elder brothers, would you like to come along? Or perhaps we could have another match?"

“No need. We’re just here to watch the fun. Since Third Brother is so keen on releasing the Lantern of Unity, we shouldn’t be so oblivious,” Chu Tianche said.

Chu Yungui waved his hand, "It's fine if you want to try. It won't change the outcome anyway. It's a rare opportunity to have fun, so we can't miss it."

Upon hearing the words from behind, Song Ruozhen couldn't help but say, "Your Highness, aren't you afraid of being beaten for talking like that?"

“They don’t have that ability yet,” Chu Junting said with a light laugh.

Song Ruozhen smiled, suddenly feeling a sense of satisfaction that her powerful backer meant that even if others couldn't swallow their anger, they had to endure it.

Suddenly, she noticed a familiar figure in the crowd, and upon closer inspection, she recognized Ling Qian'er.

She hadn't seen Ling Qian'er since returning to the capital, presumably because of the Ling family's troubles and they were too busy to deal with it. She never expected to run into her again at the lantern festival today.

It must be said that the lantern festival was exceptionally lively today; almost everyone I knew came.

Chu Muyao also noticed Ling Qian'er and whispered to Song Ruozhen, "Sister-in-law, I heard that Ling Qian'er has been clinging to the Second Prince lately. She probably knows that there is no hope for the Prince here. It just so happens that the Second Prince does not have a Princess Consort right now, so he has his eye on the position of Princess Consort of Che."

As she spoke, Chu Muyao shook her head, "She used to say that she liked my brother, but now she has changed her mind so quickly. She just wants to become a princess."

She was quite happy when she saw Ling Qian'er return, thinking that she was a friend she hadn't seen for many years and was glad to see her back. However, what happened later made her realize that the situation was not as simple as she thought.

After learning Ling Qian'er's true thoughts, she unconsciously distanced herself from her. Now, seeing Ling Qian'er clinging to her second brother, she was even more disgusted.

"Didn't Prince Che want to get close to her before? Now that she has agreed, shouldn't the two of them hit it off immediately?" Song Ruozhen was surprised; she hadn't heard about this.

Chu Muyao shook her head, "Sister-in-law, you don't know how shrewd my second brother is. Like his mother, he is best at assessing the situation."

When the Ling family returned with great fanfare, he naturally had designs on them. However, I recently heard that the Ling family's situation has changed somewhat, especially since the eldest brother of the Ling family died.

I don't know much about these things, but from what everyone's saying, the Ling family is in some trouble. My second brother, being so clever, certainly won't agree so easily.

Song Ruozhen understood. No wonder Chu Tianche was also a formidable figure in the original book. He was not only capable of taking things on and letting them go, but also thick-skinned and quite intelligent.

It seems that it won't be easy for Ling Qian'er to marry Chu Tianche.

Following that, whether it was archery or anything else, Chu Junting unsurprisingly came out on top.

Song Ruozhen looked at the token in her hand, her gaze falling on the high platform in front of her, where the love lanterns would be placed later.

"Ruozhen, would you be willing to release a love lantern with me?"

Chu Junting looked at the person in front of him, his eyes shining like stars, reflecting the Milky Way, filled with burning anticipation.

Song Ruozhen knew that he was usually not interested in such things at all, but today he specially won so many first places for her, so that he could release the love lanterns with her and wish that lovers would be together forever.

She nodded gently, the corners of her mouth curving upwards, her smile bright and dazzling.

Seeing this, Chu Junting's eyes lit up with a smile, and he took her hand and walked up to the platform together.

When the people learned that the people who released the lanterns of unity together today were none other than His Highness the King of Chu and the young lady from the Song family, their faces were filled with astonishment.

"Is Your Highness the King of Chu going to marry Miss Song? You came here specifically to release the love lanterns, isn't that to pray for a long and happy marriage?"

"None of you noticed before, but His Highness the Prince of Chu won first place in every single activity in order to be the best. His demeanor was truly astonishing!"

"Miss Song is truly blessed to have His Highness the Prince of Chu treat her with such devotion; she is a role model for all of us."

The girls' eyes filled with envy. Even the usually aloof Prince Chu could go to such lengths for the girl he loved. They also wished that their sweethearts would cherish them.

Tang Xuening watched this scene, a deep resentment flashing in her eyes.

That vile woman, Song Ruozhen, has completely bewitched the King of Chu!

Ling Qian'er and the others all showed complicated expressions. It seems that... the marriage between the two is a done deal!
