v2.Chapter 281 (1/2)
As soon as Yu Fu looked back, he saw Gu Shubai, and his ears began to heat suspiciously.
Gu Shubai gave Ouyang Qi a boxing salute in the former dynasty, which was a military ceremony, not a court ceremony.
Ouyang Qi knew that the man in front of him was not only the young general of Gu family, but also Yufu's fiance. Naturally, he didn't dare to take it lightly, so he also gave a salute.
He turned to the Ministry and said, ”this is the young general of Dongling gujia army, the second young master, the fourth young master and the fifth young master.”
When the two sides met each other, Ouyang Qi's subordinates were not satisfied with Gu Shubai's words when he came in, ”how do you want to compare? We will accompany you to the end! ”
The two sides met for the first time with a strong smell of gunpowder. Ouyang Qi tried to persuade them to make peace. ”The visitor is a guest. It would hurt the harmony of the two sides in the contest. We'd better not compete.”
Yu Fu looked at Gu Shubai and said with a smile, ”general Ouyang, this is not true. We are all military men, and we happen to come from different countries. It's the right way to compete and learn from each other. As long as it's done, it won't hurt the harmony. ”
Gu Jiuge also said: ”yes, general Ouyang, please don't worry. We have a sense of propriety.”
Oh, I'm young, but I have a big voice!
Ouyang Qi is not easy to stop, but he seems to be afraid to compare when he stops. Isn't it unfair that he has lost the prestige of his generals?
Yu Fu was relieved to Gu Shubai, so he said to Ouyang Qi, ”general Ouyang, let's have a fight. I'll watch you in the palace.”
There are only a few military competitions, such as archery, horse riding, sword competition and wrestling. When people come to the arena, Yufu and ouyangqi sit on the top to watch.
The soldier first lifted the target and swung it away. Fifty paces away from the target, there was a platform with the same bow and arrow on it.
A middle-aged man, who looked like a general, raised his bow and said, ”which young master will come up for a contest? Don't say that we bully our guests. You can choose these bows and arrows at will. Take your time and try again if you can choose them easily! ”
Archery is a little bit of a joke for all the people in guhou's mansion. Gu Shubai stepped forward and said, ”it's boring to compete like this. It's only fifty steps. Most of our gujia soldiers can shoot at the heart. Why don't you take a step further? ”
The general who raised the bow was stunned, ”what a big tone! Well, a hundred steps is a hundred steps, and I'm afraid you won't do it! ”
After that, he motioned to the soldiers to set the target a hundred paces away. Ouyang Qi was worried, but Yufu didn't look at the bottom.
No matter how they compete, Gu Shubai will not lose.
She sipped a sip of tea and chatted with Ouyang Qi: ”yesterday, the Japanese palace asked the second elder martial brother to go to the general's house for medical treatment. I heard that there was an old wound on the general's body that hurt his lung. Why didn't the general ask the second elder martial brother to treat it?”
Ouyang Qi then turned his head and bowed his hand to her, ”thank you for your kindness, and also thank Tianshu medical immortal for treating me. It's just that Yixian said that he wanted to open the chamber for treatment. He was worried about the minister's body, so he didn't want to treat him. ”
Yu Fu smiles and looks down. The target has already been set a hundred paces away. Gu Shubai draws the bow and takes the string. With a whoosh, the arrow flies out like a rainbow.
He hardly took time to aim, but the arrow landed on the target's heart.
There was a cry of surprise from the soldiers below. Gu Shubai's eyes were suddenly different from before. Even Ouyang Qi was stunned.
Yufu's voice called him back, ”general Ouyang, a generation of heroes, is by no means a person who is afraid of the inside, so why hide it from our palace? I'm afraid that general Ouyang is also worried about the danger to his life, so he refuses, isn't he? ”
Ouyang Qi turned his head and said, ”please forgive me. I don't believe in Xianren Valley's medical skills. But his highness also saw the situation of Beili now. The soldiers were brave, but most of the generals withered in the suppression of the rebellion three years ago. Excuse me, if you are arrogant, you can't do without a minister in the army. In case of any accident, even if it can be cured, it will take a long time to recover the wound. In case of any change during this period of time, who will protect his Highness's country? ”
Yu Fu's heart moved, ”the rivers and mountains of our palace?”
Ouyang Qi left his seat and half knelt on the ground, ”yes, I don't need to think about anything, I just want to support your highness! His highness is the crown prince of Beili. He is the only one who is qualified to ascend the throne. If others are ambitious, they have to ask whether the sword in his hand agrees or not! ”
Yu Fu nodded slightly. Then he found that all the soldiers below were looking at them and clearly saw the scene of Ouyang Qi kneeling down.
Ouyang Qi followed Yufu's eyes. Yufu said, ”general Ouyang, please rise quickly. Your loyalty has never been doubted in our palace.”
She helped Ouyang Qi to get up. The latter was a little relieved, but heard Yu Fu say: ”but the general is loyal, but your soldiers are not. In the final analysis, if the palace can't serve the public, how can we ascend to the throne? ”
Ouyang Qi nodded his head slowly and looked down at the stage. There were many archers competing with Gu Shubai, but none of them was as successful as Gu Shubai.
Ouyang Qi couldn't help laughing. He was very short of breath when he was laughing. ”When I was young and uninjured, I didn't necessarily have Shizi. Your highness, are you afraid that you will not be able to serve the people when they are here? ”
People in the army advocate force. When they see that the people Yufu rescued are not useless little white faces, but talents who can really fight to kill the enemy, they will put down their arrogance.At the moment, the more miserable they lose, the more convinced they will be to Yu Fu.
Yu Fu shook his head, ”they are them, I am me. I'm not the one who hides behind men and relies on others to support me. To be the emperor of Beili, I have to rely on myself. ”
Yu gets up, leaves her seat and goes down. Ouyang Qi doesn't know what she wants to do, so he has to follow her.
The soldiers who were originally gathered around Gu Shubai to ask him for advice on archery quickly separated and saluted Yu Fu respectfully. Yu Fu said with a smile: ”it's boring to have a target that can't move. Who is waiting for you to shoot on the battlefield? It's better to play another way. ”
Hearing what she said, they asked, ”how does your highness say to play?”
Yu Fu pointed to the horse at the edge of the field and said, ”I'll ride around the field. Whoever can shoot the first step on my head is the winner.”
Everyone was flustered, ”how can this work? Your highness, jade and gold, how can you go on the stage in person? ”
Yu Fu said with a faint smile, ”as a woman, I still have the courage. Do you have no confidence in your archery? If you don't even have the guts, you'll be far away from the world. ”
Sure enough, when people looked at Gu Shubai, he just frowned and didn't say a word.
In front of the Lord, he lost the face of the Northern Glass army. Naturally, they were unwilling to work, so they had to watch Yu Fu mount the horse.
The step on her head is shining with golden light. You can see it clearly in the sunlight. The light is even more obvious when the horse is galloping. If you look at me and I look at you, no one dares to start first.
Just when they hesitated, Gu Shubai took the bow and took the string, aiming at the direction of Yufu.
They could not help holding their breath and nervously looking at Gu Shu's actions in his white hands, for fear that his arrow might miss and hurt Yu Fu.
Even Ouyang Qi had to be nervous. He whispered to Gu Shubai: ”we can see Shizi's archery in our eyes, but your highness can't miss it. If Shizi doesn't have complete assurance, it's better not to shoot an arrow!”
”Yes, I hope you will think twice. Don't hurt your highness just to show off. If your highness hurts a hair, we will not spare you! ”
And all the soldiers spoke, and some persuaded him, and some threatened him.
Everyone comes from a young and frivolous age. People who know this age are unavoidably arrogant and unwilling to admit defeat.
His archery is good enough. There's no need to prove that Yu Fu is in danger.
Gu Xiang stood in Gu Shubai's side to protect him. ”You generals, don't interfere with my elder brother. He could have shot. What if you interfered with him and hurt your highness?”
One of the generals was provoked by him, ”do you mean we deliberately made trouble?”
”Hum, who knows if you are not angry that my elder brother's archery is better than yours...”
There was a lot of bickering and noise.
Gu Shubai didn't hear anything.
His eyes are fixed on the arrow, concentrating, and all the sounds around are automatically blocked by him.
