C533 Pot throwing contest (1/2)
Wei Ru grabbed an arrow and walked over to a spot about 20 feet away from the jade pot. He aimed at the opening of the jade pot and raised the arrow.
”The distance between Princess Jianan and Princess Eleven is two meters. It's much more difficult. Can you invest in it?” Fan Yu from the general's estate said.
Wei Ruchao had a confident smile on his face as he elegantly raised his hand and threw forward. The corner of his skirt fluttered and his slim body swayed along with it, leaving behind a trail of beautiful colors. As everyone was admiring her elegant posture, the arrow had already been thrown into the pot.
”So accurate!”
”Princess Jianan is so powerful.” Everyone clapped their hands and exclaimed.
”He's even stronger than me.” The eleventh princess, Feng Lingyue, couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
”Yue'er is the most powerful one.” It was unknown when Xiao He had stood behind her as he said this in a low voice.
As Feng Lingyue heard this, she turned around to see Xiao He looking down at her. She hurriedly frowned and said, ”Don't speak nonsense!”
”…” Xiao He lightly smiled.
On the other side, Wei Ru walked back to Xu Xianfei's side after he finished voting. He gave a slight bow to the crowd, revealing a dignified smile, and said leisurely, ”Jian An has made a fool of himself. Sisters and sisters, please don't be offended.”
”If you call this making a fool out of yourself, then we will all be embarrassed to play around with you, Princess Jianan.” The Fifth Princess played with the arrow in her hand as she casually walked to the spot where Wei Ruchao had been standing a moment ago. She raised her hand and deflected the arrow, since the arrow was not even close to the edge of the jade pot.
”Fifth Sister, you can't forget about it this time. It's your turn to drink.” Feng Ye laughed.
”This won't do. This princess still needs to vote twice more. If I can't even hit it three times, I'm willing to give three cups of wine.” The Fifth Princess had to pinch him and throw him twice. She still failed twice and had no choice but to give up in the end.
”I don't practice much, but I still have to admit defeat. I'll drink this wine.” The Fifth Princess took the wine cup from the palace maid's hand and drank the wine in it. Everyone clapped their hands.
”I heard that the emperor had praised the county lord to be a heroic and unyielding woman. Presumably, her throwing technique is not bad either. Jian An really wants to see for himself if he has the honor to do so.” After the Fifth Princess finished her wine, Wei Liang said to Lian Ruyue, who was standing there silently.
She also knew from Xu Xianfei that Lian Yueyue was obsessed with Feng Ye, and because Feng Ye was a passionate person, he did not reject Lian Yue.
Hence, she secretly had a thought at today's banquet. She wanted to become the most beautiful and outstanding person in Feng Ye's heart as long as she could become one of them.
”Princess, you flatter me. I'm not very good at the art of throwing pots, but if you want to see it, then show me your face.” Lian Ruyue's face revealed a faint smile when she heard the invitation from Wei Ru. It was hard to tell what she was thinking.
Xu Xianfei nodded at the palace maid standing by the side. ”Give the arrow to County Lord Rong.”
”Yes.” The palace maid then placed the arrow into Lian Rue's hands.
”Empress Dowager Xian, let Rong He and the Prefecture Lord compete with Princess Jianan. The result is a total of three times. The more the better, how about it?” At this time, the princess of Yue, Xiao Rou, suggested to Xu Xianfei.
Xu Xianfei nodded and said, ”It's just playing anyway. Jian An, you can compete with County Lord Rong He.”
