Marriage of the Di Daughter

The day of the qin music examination ended amidst the sighs of everyone.

No matter how you say it, Jiang Li's "Hujia Eighteen Beats" this day has become a topic that people in Yanjing talk about. The doubts about Shang Sanmen dissipated a lot for a while. Jiang Li's piano skills also caused many people to re-examine the bet between Miss Jiang and the daughter of the Meng family. In the gambling shop, some people even chose to bet on Jiang Li to win.

These changes are little by little, but pervasive. It seems that everyone has reached a consensus overnight: Jiang Li is no worse than other Yanjing noble girls.

This is naturally a good change for Jiangli, but not for some people. Not to mention the other female students of Mingyi Hall who were stepped on by Jiang Li, even the other owner of the bet, Meng Hongjin, was also restless at the moment.

In Meng's house, Meng Youde hadn't returned home yet, and Meng's mother was also sitting in the living room and sighing. Meng Hongjin locked herself in the boudoir, and angrily knocked over all the paper and pens on the table, showing irritability, but looking carefully, there was a trace of panic in the irritability.

Unknowingly, things have reached such a point. Thinking of it now, Meng Hongjin still feels that everything is like a dream. She couldn't understand why things that had been settled before became what they are today. She has already heard from the private chats of the servants, about her bet with Jiang Li, and now people in major gambling houses have started to buy Jiang Li, what does this mean, it means, at least in the eyes of outsiders, she is Maybe lose to Jiangli.

In fact, it's not just outsiders who think so, even Meng Hongjin's self-confidence at the beginning has long since disappeared. Meng Hongjin understood that she was probably deceived by Jiang Li. The so-called knowing nothing and knowing nothing is just a nonsense that Jiang Li made up to deceive herself. Jiang Li probably had the idea of ​​making herself look ugly from the beginning, so she dug a trap and forced herself into the game with a provocative method. In fact, Jiangli can do everything.

But the words have already been released, and the entire Yanjing City knows the bet between him and Jiang Li, and now it is too late to take back the bet.

The maid next to her persuaded: "Miss, don't worry too much. Tomorrow is the two items of imperial archery that Miss is best at. As long as she wins the first place in these two, Miss Jiang's family will not be the first."

"Not number one, I lost too." Meng Hongjin said coldly. In Jiang Li's bet, if she wasn't the bottom of Ming Yi Tang, he would kneel down and apologize to her. If Jiang Li is better than herself, she has to kneel down at the gate of the Imperial College and apologize to her; if she is not only better than herself, but also ranks first in the entire school exam, she has to take off her outer clothes at the gate of the Imperial College and apologize to her!

Three bets, one more vicious than the other. Now Jiang Li is the leader in the first four items, so he is not at the bottom of the list, and even better than himself. Even if he won the first place in the two subjects of Yushe, Jiang Li failed to win the top spot at most. According to the bet, Meng Hongjin had to kneel down at the gate of the Imperial College to apologize to Jiang Li.

Meng Hongjin couldn't accept that she was in such a situation.

If you don't want to lose your reputation, you have to find a reason to break up the bet, but in this way, why not be the laughing stock of the entire Yanjing city?

I must not let that kind of thing happen!

Suddenly, a gloomy thought came into Meng Hongjin's mind again.

On the imperial shooting range, swords and arrows have no eyes. There was also a woman who was thrown off a horse when she was riding a horse in the inspection field, but her injuries were not too serious, she was a little frightened, and she was fine after a few days of raising her in the house. But if Jiang Li was unlucky, he would be thrown off his horse on the inspection field, not to mention breaking his neck and dying. The face is disfigured? There is also archery. In case someone "misses", it is a good thing for Jiang Li to be injured by other people's arrows in the chaos.

In this way, Jiang Li will not be able to appear in front of everyone in a short time, and no one will bring up the bet again, and everyone will be abolished. Who cares about the bet?

The more Meng Hongjin thought about it, the more excited she became, as if she had seen Jiang Li's pain, she couldn't help laughing out loud. She is very skilled in imperial archery, and it is easy to do it.

Seeing Meng Hongjin's ferocious smile, the maid in the room felt inexplicably terrified, and lowered her head involuntarily, not daring to look at the master again.

...

Like Meng Hongjin, Jiang Youyao was unhappy because of Jiang Liqin's music.

In Yaoguang Zhuli, the servant girl knelt down on the ground. Miss Jiang San was upset, so she randomly found an excuse to punish the whole room of servants.

When Ji Shuran entered the room, what she saw was Jiang Youyao overturning a celadon vase.

The vase was broken on the ground, Ji Shuran frowned, stepped over the broken porcelain carefully, and ordered a nearby maid to clean it up quickly. Jiang Youyao turned her head and found Ji Shuran's arrival.

Ji Shuran didn't speak, just stared at Jiang Youyao, this beautiful woman who has always looked kind, was still very powerful when she was really angry. Jiang Youyao flinched and called out, "Mother."

"What are you doing again?" Ji Shuran pressed her forehead, walked to the front of the room and sat down, shook her head and said, "Your father will not like seeing you like this."

"Father doesn't like me a long time ago," Jiang Youyao said, biting her lip, "He has been given the ecstasy soup by that little bitch Jiang Li, and he listens to Jiang Li for everything!"

"How many times have I told you that my daughter's family should pay attention to words and deeds," Ji Shuran said sternly, "If outsiders listen to what you say, it will be troublesome."

"I know, mother, I'm just talking in front of you." Jiang Youyao said angrily: "I'm really angry, and you saw it today, Jiang Li is clearly against me. I'm good at piano music, But today she is better than me. Now the whole city of Yanjing knows that she, the Second Miss Jiang, is much better than me in piano skills, what will I do in the future?"

"Don't worry..."

"It's the piano art that beats me now. I don't know what will beat me in the future? She just wants me to be her stepping stone. Mother, you didn't see it today. Zhou Shizi has been looking at her all the time. This bitch, she is She wants to seduce Zhou Shizi, but she still doesn't give up!" At the end, she gritted her teeth, making people suspect that if Jiang Li was in front of her, Jiang Youyao would definitely tear her to pieces.

Ji Shuran was slightly taken aback, and at the moment, she didn't care about Jiang Youyao's words and deeds, she just said: "Is what you said true?"

"Really." Jiang Youyao said aggrievedly: "She wants to replace me, and wants to become the eldest daughter of the Jiang family again. Mother, didn't you say that there is only one eldest daughter of the eldest family, and that is me. No one can snatch her away." Take my things, but now my fiancé is going to be taken away by Jiang Li, mother, how could I not care?"

Ji Shuran's heart was shocked, and Jiang Youyao's words "no one can take away my things" stabbed her heart.

Looking back, seeing Jiang Youyao really looked very sad, her eyes were red, Ji Shuran couldn't help feeling soft, then sighed, and said: "Nonsense, how could Ningyuan Hou Shizi be snatched away, let alone other things, The Zhou family has changed their engagement once before, and the engagement is not a joke. How could it be changed again and again? Besides, how can Jiang Li’s reputation compare with yours? I have met Mrs. Ningyuanhou, and their family also likes you. If you change it again Marriage, where does our Jiang family go, your father will not allow it. Youyao, don't worry, no one can take Zhou Yanbang away."

"But Prince Zhou has already been bewildered by Jiang Li..." Jiang Youyao was still unwilling.

"How can she be as good as a hair of yours? You are thinking too much." Ji Shuran said with a smile: "If he had Jiang Li in his heart, he wouldn't have never mentioned Jiang Li in the past eight years. Ask, do you seem to have someone in your heart?"

When Jiang Youyao heard this, she felt better.

Ji Shuran was thinking in her heart, she said this to comfort Jiang Youyao, but if what Jiang Youyao said was true and Zhou Yanbang was really interested in Jiang Li, then she needed to be vigilant. Although it is common for a man to have three wives and four concubines, if Zhou Yanbang thinks about Jiang Li marrying his daughter, Ji Shuran's throat feels stuck just thinking about it.

"But what you said is right, Jiang Li really can't stay." Ji Shuran said: "I originally thought that if she was obedient and obedient, she could be used by us in the future. But right now, it seems that she is not peaceful, so I came back Not long after entering the mansion, it caused a lot of restlessness, and it would be a disaster to stay any longer."

"Mother, do you want to deal with her?" Jiang Youyao's eyes lit up when she heard the words, and she immediately asked.

"I said," Ji Shuran stroked Jiang Youyao's long hair with a smile, "Jiang Li is too ostentatious, the more people will hate you. Don't worry, she has offended people by showing off this time. Some people want her to disappear more than us , Yushe tomorrow, just wait and see."

Jiang Youyao was puzzled: "Does anyone want to deal with Jiang Li?"

"Youyao, you have to remember." Ji Shuran didn't answer Jiang Youyao's words, but said: "The best way is to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight without bloodshed."

Jiang Youyao nodded half understanding.

...

In the Jiang Mansion, Jiang Youyao was not happy, but Fangfei Garden was still happy.

Jiang Jingrui seems to have become a frequent visitor to Fangfei Garden, even Bai Xue knew that he likes tea that is not bitter, so he poured a large spoonful of honey into the teacup.

"I said, Uncle and Aunt are really outrageous," Jiang Jingrui said, "You won the first prize of Qinyue, but you didn't get any congratulations." He spread his hands, "Every year when Jiang Youyao won the first place, The rewards are all the same." He stared at Jiang Li carefully: "They are both uncle's daughters, why is there such a big difference? Could it be...Actually, you are not from the Jiang family?"

This person's words are really too unpleasant, it seems that he came here on purpose to stab a knife in people's hearts. Tong'er was so angry that she almost cursed, and Bai Xue also frowned.

Jiang Li looked at him quietly and said, "Maybe."

"Huh?" Jiang Jingrui was surprised, "Why aren't you angry?"

"There's nothing to be angry about." She wasn't from the Jiang family in the first place.

"You are really self-restraining." Jiang Jingrui shrugged, suddenly thought of something, and laughed unceremoniously, "When I think of Jiang Youyao's expression today, I want to laugh—"

Jiang Li simply wondered if Jiang Youyao had offended Jiang Jingrui severely, otherwise why would Jiang Jingrui not wish her well.

"Speaking of which, what are you going to do tomorrow?" Jiang Jingrui asked: "Tomorrow is Sheyu, you..." He looked Jiang Li up and down, and shook his head: "This can't be the first prize, right?"

Although Jiang Jingrui was also surprised that Jiang Li was able to win first place in Qinyue, which was better than Jiang Youyao, it was not so unbelievable. Because Jiang Jingrui himself is ignorant of qin music, he doesn't understand what it means for Jiang Li to be able to play "Hujia Eighteen Beats" completely and wonderfully. But Jiang Jingrui also went to a horse race with a group of his friends to compete in archery, because he learned so-so and knew how difficult it was, so he came to advise Jiang Li.

"When you get on the horse, take two steps first, then pretend that you can't do it and admit defeat, or don't compare yourself with others. I see that many of the ladies in Mingyi Hall every year are like this. It's okay to walk slowly to the end." He shook his head, "Don't you girls work too hard, protecting yourself is the most important thing, and the test field is so big, if you fall and get hurt, the loss outweighs the gain."

Listening to what he said, Jiang Li knew that Jiang Jingrui also had good intentions, and she thought to herself that Jiang Jingrui and Xue Zhao were different after all.

If it is Xue Zhao, you must say: "Since you are going to compete with others, of course you must learn well. It is not a joke if you fall and get hurt, so you must practice riding and archery to the best , once something happens, it is more than enough to deal with it. What happened to the girl's family? The girl's family has to fight!"

Jiang Li couldn't help laughing.

"What are you laughing at?" Jiang Jingrui wondered, "Is what I said funny? Did you listen to what I just said? Jiang Li, I'm kind enough to mention you because we are relatives. I'm as stubborn as you, so don't cry at me when Jieshi."

"Don't worry, I will definitely not look for you." Jiang Li said.

"You!" Jiang Jingrui flicked his sleeves, "I can't say no to you, do as you please!" He stood up angrily and walked out, stopped halfway, and said, "There is my equestrian master in the mansion, you will wait a while." If you want to find him, just go directly, I have already said hello to him, at least you can't be thrown off after getting on the horse." After explaining this sentence, Jiang Jingrui really left.

"Girl," Tong'er said worriedly, "Is imperial archery really that dangerous? Why don't you go." She and Jiang Li have stayed in the nunnery for eight years, so of course they know that Jiang Li has never learned Lao Shizi's imperial archery. . Although Jiang Li has never studied qin and music books to count etiquette, but those are not dangerous after all, just compare. Once it involves danger, Tonger is always worried.

"It's okay." Jiang Li said: "I have my own opinion." She vaguely guessed in her heart why Ji Shuran had an uncharacteristic attitude towards her during the day, since there is no eye for knives and arrows on the test field, danger may occur at any time, and the danger that occurred at that time , it was just an accident.

"Accidents" can happen at any time.

But she is not afraid of accidents, because she can handle more than enough.

This is "confidence".

...

In the west of Yanjing City, in Su Guogong's mansion, it is also quiet at this moment.

Su Guogong likes gorgeous and colorful things, so his mansion is complicated and winding, and the repairs are extremely exquisite and luxurious. In front of the door is the Anding River, and there are countless beautiful buildings beside the river, but these small buildings with angled corners and cornices are not as conspicuous as that vermilion mansion.

Today, there was no familiar opera coming from the Duke's Mansion, and the quietness was unbelievably quiet.

The old general, the grandfather of Su Guogong Jiheng, Ji Dachuan was squatting in the yard practicing sword. The yard is very spacious, surrounded by fragrant flowers and plants, many of which are rare species. However, the wind of the knife brought by Ji Dachuan cut off a lot, and fell to the ground, which was so fragile that it made people feel sad.

The guards hiding on the eaves suddenly complained. This batch of cosmos was imported from the sea merchants at a high price. After several months of careful service, they finally produced a few flower buds. They were ruined by the old general in this way, and the Duke of the country had to "forgive" them when he saw them.

It was horrible.

Ji Dachuan is over sixty years old now, but his figure is still powerful. With his white hair and childlike face, one can vaguely tell that he was a handsome man back then, so even though he is old, he is still an old and handsome man. There were already wrinkles on his face, but his eyes were still piercing. He was shirtless in summer, with a piece of red brocade tied around his wrist. He was holding a knife in each of his left and right hands, and he was practicing double swords.

If this goes on like this, the cosmos of the Duke of the Kingdom will be killed in battle. A seemingly loyal guard couldn't bear it anymore, and finally stood up and stopped Ji Dachuan's behavior. He said: "General, it's late, go first Let's eat."

When Ji Dachuan heard the words, he paused for a while, "swiped", retracted the two scimitars in his hand, and asked, "Where's Ji Heng bastard?"

The guard said: "...Your Excellency has just returned to the residence."

"Didn't he go to listen to someone play the piano today? Who can play the piano well?" Ji Dachuan's voice was loud, but what he said was as if Ji Heng went to a flower house to listen to a little song today, and came back to tell which girl sang beautifully .

The guard endured it: "The second lady of the first assistant Jiang's family has taken the leader."

"Second miss?" Ji Dachuan put on his clothes and walked out, and said, "I don't know, it's the first assistant's house, Jiang Wugui..."

The guard looked at the remaining flowers all over the ground and sighed helplessly.

In the room, Ji Heng was leaning on the slum, playing with the fan carelessly.

If someone could enter Jiheng's room, he would be surprised. This Su Guogong, who loves extravagance and beauty by nature, has an unexpectedly plain study room, which can even be called chilling. The entire study room is so spacious that it is almost empty. It is all black and white pear wood, without any extra decorations, which makes people feel empty.

However, his eyes fell on his beautiful face, and he suddenly felt that the empty house became satisfied.

There was a subtle light from the lamp, and there was one person sitting in the room.

Lu Ji was still wearing a green shirt and a goatee, and said with a smile: "Today, my lord went to the examination room, how about watching the piano music?"

"Very boring." Ji Heng said lazily.

"But tomorrow, my lord will have to continue to watch Yushe, so thank you for your lord."

Ji Heng raised his eyelids, seeming a little impatient.

He is not only the examiner for Qin music, but also the examiner for imperial archery, so he will have to go to the examination room for the imperial archery tomorrow.

"Why does Your Majesty ask you to be an examiner?" Lu Ji was puzzled.

Ji Heng said: "Lu Ji, I didn't recruit you to ask you questions about me."

Lu Ji's heart trembled, and she heard the casual answer from the person in front of her: "Because the emperor wants me to keep an eye on King Cheng."

Become king? Lu Ji was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly realized.

Although Emperor Hong Xiao is now the emperor, but the crown prince is young, and he will not get rid of him when he becomes king. He is always a thorn in Emperor Hong Xiao's eyes. But King Cheng was supported by Concubine Liu, and Emperor Hong Xiao was doing "benevolent governance". He couldn't catch King Cheng, so he could only let King Cheng live for the time being. After all, it is difficult for a king to rest assured. Since King Cheng came to watch the inspection, Emperor Hong Xiao simply let Ji Heng over.

However, Lu Ji couldn't help but glanced at the young man in front of him. Emperor Hong Xiao probably didn't know that Ji Heng's single-handed support was not the reason for King Cheng's growing power.

Make Ji Heng stare at King Cheng? It would be nice if Ji Heng didn't take the opportunity to help King Cheng strengthen his power.

"Young Prime Minister and King Cheng are very good," Ji Heng said casually, "I'm going to see Shu Shelang soon."

"Shen Yurong?" Lu Ji said, "He and Princess Yongning seem to be..." As long as Lu Ji thought about the inside story, she would feel astonished. After all, she is a princess of a country, so it is unbelievable to do such a scandal.

"It's also a good show, but I've watched too much and I'm a little tired. Let them go." Ji Heng unfolded the folding fan in his hand. On the folding fan, there were large, rich and graceful peonies hand-painted, with curly petals, Lifelike, because of the gold wire material, it shines brightly.

"Then tomorrow..."

"King Cheng won't be so stupid as to do something on the inspection field, the emperor is too caring." Ji Heng said, "It's fine if I go, but," he said, "pay more attention to Ye Shijie's movements."

"What's the problem with Ye Shijie?" Lu Ji said, "He has now become the number one in the Imperial Academy and will soon become an official. He may be useful in the future."

"Regardless of the future, suddenly alienating Li Lian," Ji Heng smiled playfully, "I also really want to know who reminded him behind his back."

Lu Ji was startled and stopped talking.

...

That night, Jiang Li slept soundly.

She even had a dream, in which Xue Zhao and she each rode a horse, running through the forest. Xue Zhao didn't have enough arrows in her quiver, so she asked for a few. And the bag on her horseback was full of prey.

Just as the two of them were about to go back, a fierce tiger suddenly sprang out from the forest. To protect her, Xue Zhao drove his horse to lead the tiger away, but Jiang Li couldn't catch up, so he had to watch Xue Zhao's back gradually disappear from his sight .

When she woke up, she felt profusely sweating, which surprised Tong'er, and fiddled with the ice cubes in the copper bull, complaining: "there are too few ice cubes in the yard for us in the kitchen. some……"

The kitchen is full of Ji Shuran's people, and it is common for Jiang Li to trip up these small things. Jiang Li didn't care too much, just thinking about the dream last night, and vaguely felt that it was an omen. It is said that the dead relatives will entrust their family members in their dreams. Could it be that Xue Zhao wants to entrust the dream to tell him something?

Dangerous today?

Jiang Li thought about it, but she wasn't surprised. Ever since she came to Yanjing City, there were countless people who secretly regarded Second Miss Jiang as a thorn in their side. If she wants to achieve her goal, she must block the way of many people. It is expected that she will be removed as a roadblock.

Bai Xue came over with a brand new riding outfit in her hand, and said, "Girl, the clothes are ready."

Jiang Li glanced at the clothes in Bai Xue's hands, and said, "Okay, just put it on the table."

Since imperial archery requires riding horses, it is necessary to wear riding clothes. Jiang Li does not have it. This is newly made by Mrs. Jiang. In order to show fairness, the four daughters in the mansion have them all. Yes, the one for Jiang Youyao is naturally the best.

Tong'er thought that Jiang Li would put on a lot of effort for the first time, but she never thought that Jiang Li was very proficient, and she didn't even need help, and she could put it on in two or three strokes. Tong'er tied her hair into a bunch for her. She was energetic and neat, showing a bit of heroism that she didn't usually have, which made several girls in the yard boast that she was not good-looking.

Because Yushe started early, Jiang Li also got up early, so she went to Wanfengtang to join everyone. She found it at a good time, and just after the other people arrived, Jiang Yu'e and Jiang Youyao began to look at Jiang Li.

Jiang Youyao was dressed in pink riding clothes. She was already charming and charming, and she looked like a lively little girl unique to Yanjing City. Jiang Yu'e was wearing light blue riding clothes, with clear eyebrows and eyes, and a charming smile. Jiang Yuyan was pale yellow, her complexion was not fair, and the light yellow made her look even darker, so she couldn't be seen in the crowd.

Jiang Li's riding attire is light cyan, she likes the blue color very much, and even chose this color for her riding attire. Originally, Jiang Li's facial features were delicate and sharp, and she looked elegant and bland. It seemed that she was not suitable for such a lively attire like riding clothes. But for some reason, she stood here with neat sleeves and a slight smile, just like a straight green bamboo, with dewdrops on the branches and leaves, full of heroic spirit and vitality.

Even Mrs. Jiang couldn't help showing admiration.

Jiang Youyao was unhappy again, but thinking of what Ji Shuran said to herself yesterday, she looked at Jiang Li and smiled and said, "Second Sister looks different today from the past, she is really pretty. I wonder if the technique of imperial archery that I will wait for is It will amaze the audience again.”

Jiang Li smiled lightly: "Third sister is too famous."

Jiang Youyao hates Jiang Li's smile very much. Jiang Li's smile is too sincere, making Jiang Youyao, who knows Jiang Li's insidiousness, feel that such Jiang Li is even more disgusting, so she turns her head, stops looking at Jiang Li, and says to Ji Shuran : "Mother, let's go."

But Jiang Yuanbai lagged behind, paused, and then said to Jiang Li: "If you can't, don't force it." He left.

Jiang Li was slightly taken aback, shook her head, didn't think much, followed into the carriage, and walked to the other side of the examination field.

Today's Yanjing City is almost an empty alley for thousands of people, and there are crowds of people outside the inspection field. It is probably because yesterday's qin music attracted many people, and today's Yushe has twice as many people as yesterday.

Jiang Li got off the carriage and walked to the other side under the examination platform.

Seeing her coming, Liu Xu greeted her happily, and said, "See, you're in a good mood today, so there shouldn't be any problems?" There was a bit of temptation in her words.

Jiang Li said: "So-so."

Liu Xu was satisfied, and saw Meng Hongjin again at a glance. In the crowd, today's Meng Hongjin was very conspicuous. She was dressed in a fiery red and narrow riding outfit, which made her very enthusiastic. Seeing Jiang Li coming, Meng Hongjin took a look at her, and quickly Look away.

Jiang Li was a little puzzled.

Today, there are not as many people laughing at Jiang Li as yesterday. Maybe Jiang Li's outstanding performance yesterday shocked the audience. Even the female students of Mingyi Hall just gathered around and looked at Jiang Li quietly, without even talking about it. Dare to face Jiang Li.

Liu Xu snorted softly, "I'm afraid now that I know about it."

It was the first time Jiang Li saw Liu Xu's appearance, she was a bit fresh, and said, "What's so scary about me?"

"You are no longer the last person in Mingyi Hall. You can't lose the bet between Meng Hongjin and you. Do you know that in the taverns in Yanjing City, how many people went out to buy wine yesterday and got drunk? It was nothing more than betting on Meng Hongjin. I paid a big price, and now I have lost all my money, so I feel sad." Speaking of this, Liu Xu gloated and said, "I heard that the Meng family also bought a lot of silver, but this time they lost a lot. If my father didn't let me gamble , I should also buy a bet, and now I don’t know how many times I have earned.”

Jiang Li laughed: "I'm not a bargaining chip."

"Don't talk about anything else, take it easy today." Liu Xu said seriously again, "This archery technique has always been Meng Hongjin's strong point, if you can't compare to her, don't force it. Yes, but the gain outweighs the loss. Anyway, it is already a sure win and no loss, so there is no need to worry too much about these minutiae."

I don't know how many people reminded her like this, Jiang Li still replied sincerely: "I know, thank you for reminding me."

This year's Yushe is grouped together, unlike Qinyue, it is divided into groups, a total of 30 people, exactly divided into five groups, and the lottery determines that five people will form a group. The five groups are verified according to the number of rows drawn.

The lottery went smoothly. Jiang Li took the wooden stick from the lottery and handed it to the boy. Liu Xu looked at it and said, "I'm in the second group, and you are in the fifth group. We're not together." She seemed a little regretful.

Jiang Li didn't really care about this, but she heard someone on the other side of Meng Hongjin making noise, someone who should be on good terms with Meng Hongjin said, "Hongjin, you are the last group."

To be in a group with Meng Hongjin, this is really a narrow road for enemies. Jiang Lifang thought so, and saw Jiang Youyao approaching him, and said, "Second Sister, I didn't expect you to be in the fifth group, and Fifth Sister and I are also in the fifth group."

Jiang Li almost sighed in her heart, what kind of fate is this, there are six people in a group, but Meng Hongjin, Jiang Youyao, Jiang Yu'e and she are all in a group. Not to mention who the other two are, even in one group, there are three people who regard her as a thorn in their side. It is a miracle not to trip her up in the same group.

Liu Xu also thought of this, and couldn't help changing her color slightly.

Just as she was thinking, she saw the commotion in the crowd not far away. Liu Xu looked back and said, "Today's examiner is here."

There are not as many examiners today as there were yesterday, only three of them. One is a sergeant in armor, about twenty-seven or eighty-eight years old. He walks like a dragon and walks like a tiger, and is very heroic. He is Kong Wei, the captain of Shangqingche, because he ranks sixth in his family, so he is called Kong Liu.

One is the former champion of martial arts, the current commander of the horse army, named Zheng Huchen, who is about the same age as Jiang Yuanbai, with dark skin, strong body, and not angry.

These two people looked like martial arts practitioners, they were extraordinary in spirit, standing in the same place made people fearful, but the last one was really beyond people's expectations.

Dressed in red, with a gold silk folding fan, with a light smile and deep eyes, Su Guogong Jiheng stood here, and he was not weak by Kong Liu and Zheng Huchen's heroism. He and Zheng Huchen are like his bodyguards.

But it's always out of place here.

Jiang Li was also a little surprised, what is Ji Heng doing here? It was already surprising that he was the examiner of Qinyue yesterday, so could it be that he is going to have a hand in it today.

It was obvious that Jiang Li was not the only one who was puzzled. In the audience watching, King Cheng also frowned, and said, "Brother Huang, what do you mean by this? Why did you let Duke Su come over today?"

King Cheng is very jealous of Su Guogong. Everyone knows that Emperor Hong Xiao has the most trust in Ji Heng today. King Cheng also tried to win over Ji Heng, but Ji Heng was a soft-hearted person with great tactics. After a few setbacks, King Cheng no longer provoked Ji Heng, but he would always pay attention to Ji Heng in secret. Ji Heng, who was in the province, worked for Emperor Hong Xiao, but let himself die inexplicably.

Princess Yongning didn't answer King Cheng's words, her thoughts had already flown to Shen Yurong not far away. Yesterday afternoon, Shen Yurong had made an appointment with her to meet her after the qin music examination, but Shen Yurong shirked it. Princess Yongning could see his evasion, and knew that Shen Yurong heard the music of the female students yesterday and thought of the dead Xue Fangfei, and her heart was complicated. Thinking of this, Princess Yongning was even more furious, Xue Fangfei was already dead, could she be no better than a dead person? She must marry Shen Yurong as soon as possible. Shen Yurong will be an infatuated obedient filial piety for Xue Fangfei for three years, and she can't wait that long.

After the examination is over, I will mention this matter to my mother and concubine Liu Taifei, Princess Yongning thought secretly.

At this end, Jiang Li was staring at the note in her hand in a daze.

There were six people in total, apart from Meng Hongjin, Jiang Yu'e, and Jiang Youyao, there were also two noble daughters from Mingyi Hall, Nie Xiaoshuang and Zhu Xin'er.

These two seem to be pampered official ladies, and their tempers don't seem to be easy to get along with. Compared with Jiang Li, they have a much better relationship with Jiang Youyao. Jiang Li was not surprised, most of the noble ladies in Yanjing City liked Jiang Youyao more than her.

It happened to be the last group... Jiang Li murmured.

No one noticed that Meng Hongjin, who was standing in the corner, took another quick look at Jiang Li, with unconcealable pride and resentment in her eyes, which made her expression a little distorted. When people passed by, Meng Hongjin looked away, but secretly clenched the stick.

Even God is helping her, dividing herself and Jiang Li together, but there are Jiang Youyao and Jiang Yu'e who are at odds with Jiang Li. In this way, it is even easier to make Jiang Li suffer.

Meng Hongjin's palms trembled a little, it was the first time she did this kind of thing, it was very strange, although she was afraid, Meng Hongjin's attitude was very firm. She knew that if she didn't do this, she would kneel in front of Jiang Li tomorrow and apologize to Jiang Li in front of everyone in the Imperial College. In that case, her reputation will be completely ruined!

It's either you die or I die, this is a more brutal competition than the Mingyi Hall examination, and she is destined to be the final winner.

The school exam has started.

The inspection field is very large, and five students in each group get on their horses and set off at the same time, and run to the finish line. It is not whoever reaches the finish line first is the first, it also depends on the ability of the students to ride the horse. After all, Yu focuses on a "roy", not "fast". Near the end, there will be a row of archery targets, each of which shoots arrows. Each arrow has its own mark, so you can’t recognize it wrong. You can distinguish it by the arrow on the last target, which is “shooting”.

Because when a person is riding a horse, he is swaying and running on the horse's back, and it is even more difficult to hit the arrow target. This year's Mingyi Hall school examination, not to mention being able to hit the bull's-eye, even if a few girls can hit the target and not fall outside, it is also a very good result.

The first group started.

Jiang Li watched carefully. She knew a little about Mingyitang's inspection rules and the past friendship between Xiao Deyin and her, but not in detail. Today she played by herself, and it was different from watching in the past. Jiang Li planned to see clearly , There will be no mistakes after playing.

Thinking of Xiao Deyin, Jiang Li didn't see her today, but this is the imperial archery check, so there is really no need for Xiao Deyin to come.

Jiang Yuyan and Liu Xu were in the second group. The first group competed very quickly. Although the test field was large, the female students in the first group were probably not very good at shooting. The arrows shot out, and the arrows shot in a mess, and none of them hit the target. And horse riding skills are even more mediocre, but these students are not disappointed in the end, it seems that as long as they can get on and off the horses and do well, they are already satisfied.

The girls of Beiyan don't admire dancing swords after all. Although Miss Jiangmen is also admirable, but when it's my turn, I can't bear the pain.

Seeing this, Jiang Li was almost concerned about the level of Mingyitang's imperial archery.

The second group that Liu Xu and Jiang Yuyan belonged to was better than the first group. At least the Yuma people really "run" and tried to be the first to reach the finish line. Liu Xu turned out to be the best archer in this group, because the arrows she shot did not fall outside the target, but stuck obliquely at the edge of the target.

But also the best in this group.

After Liu Xu left the field, she was still breathing slightly, she seemed a little tired, but her face was very excited, and she said to Jiang Li: "It's really difficult to combine the imperial archers this year, it's really hard to imagine how the cavalry in the army train Yes, to hit the bull's-eye on horseback is something very human can do..."

"You are the best in this group." Jiang Li smiled and congratulated her.

"I've never been outstanding in imperial shooting, so I'm lucky today, but I didn't expect to do well," Liu Xu said, "It's you, this time you are in the same group as Meng Hongjin, there must be many people waiting to see you It's a good show, you must take it easy and don't be impatient."

"I'm not in a hurry." Jiang Li smiled.

Liu Xu thought about it, it was indeed true, since she saw Jiang Li for the first time, she had never seen what Jiang Li looked like when she became anxious. The field competition may not be so important in Jiang Li's heart.

She is relieved.

Jiang Li was still watching the next competition seriously. I don't know that the first and second groups happened to group the students who were not good at shooting together. The next two groups were not so bad. Some young ladies even made some beautiful horse moves, which were very eye-catching. The archery target placed in the arena was gradually filled with arrows, some fell outside the target, and some were close to the target.

The competition gradually became more intense.

Soon, an hour later, we arrived at the last group.

It's time for the ginger pear.

Thank you for your flowers and diamonds. There is a character limit for off-topic remarks, so I won’t thank you one by one~

As for the issue that everyone said that Grandpa Guo and Arimu had a conversation, Grandpa Guo is still watching the show and observing secretly. jpg, when you enter the drama unconsciously, there will be more emotional scenes between the two. Chacha doesn't like the setting of love at first sight, but I still like this kind of story where enemies love each other, kill each other, rejoice, enemies hate each other and turn enemies into friends hahahahahaha

So, just be more patient~\\(≧▽≦)/~Little pink will soon~
