Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 325

Yun Shang lowered her head and burst into laughter as if she had heard the most funny joke. Everyone looked at her and saw her slowly raising her hand to take the bow and gently touching the bow and arrow.

"The eldest prince of the state of Yelang likes to bully the weak. We all know that your arrow skill is excellent. You are good at shooting with three arrows at the same time. However, the eldest prince only wants to compete with your arrow skill." Yun Shang didn't expect that it was Liu Yinfeng who spoke first. While blaming Cangjue Kangning, he secretly told her something.

Yun Shang took up the arrow feather in her plate, and drew the bow with a smile. She placed one arrow on the plate, and held the bow in one hand. When the other hand touched the arrow feather, she said with a faint smile, "so this is what you are good at? It doesn't matter. You have to give up on what you are good at."

Yun Shang suddenly picked up all the rest nine arrows in the plate, quickly pulled the bow to the biggest and shot it towards the arrow target.

Before the people in the hall could react, they saw that ten arrows were neatly inserted in the middle of the arrow target. The eunuch aside was the first to react. He hurriedly pulled out all the arrow feathers from the target and counted before he said loudly, "His majesty, lady Jing, you win the game."

The hall was in an uproar, but Yun Shang, as the protagonist, smiled. She went to the table and picked up the wine on it, "Your Highness, it's your turn." Having said that, Yun Shang was about to raise her hand to drink when Prince Jing stopped her. "You have drunk six glasses today. Don't drink."

Yun Shang wanted to tell him that she wouldn't get drunk, but when she saw Prince Jing's gaze, she didn't say anything. She smiled and nodded, putting down her cup. Prince Jing turned around and ordered the servants to prepare tea. While holding Yun Shang's hand, he sat down next to Lady Jing. "Let's see him here."

Yun Shang wanted to say, it was against the rules, but she didn't think what she did today was in accordance with the rules. She simply nodded, and said to the maid who was about to retreat to prepare tea, "bring some tea for his highness."

Seeing that Prince Jing was looking at her, Yun Shang said softly, "your injury has not yet healed. You'd better drink less."

Prince Jing giggled while he was eating. He reached out his hand to hold Yun Shang's hand. Yun Shang felt a little bit cold at his hand. She looked up at Prince Jing, and saw him intentionally looking at the man with a ferocious scar on the right. She could not help but feel a little heartache. She held his hand back and tried to give him the warmth of her hand.

When Yun Shang looked up at Cangjue Kangning, he had not started yet. Looking at his sullen face, Yun Shang thought for a moment and said gently, "if you don't want to compete with me, then forget it. I'm just kidding. The guest is a guest, how can I drive the guests out of the state of Ning?"

Her voice was soft, but her words were not so pleasant to hear. She mocked Cangjue Kangning in her heart that he didn't even have the courage to compete. He became timid in the twinkling of an eye, being complacent just now. Hearing the ridicule, Prince Cangjue Kangning's face turned paler. He knew the royal family of the state of Yelang was no match for him in terms of archery, but he couldn't win the woman. He had been proud of his three arrows shooting at the same time, but he didn't expect the woman to be able to shoot ten arrows at the same time.

He heard some of the words at the feast. Some of them were complimenting Lady Jing; some were taunting him. He felt humiliated, but he didn't want to bring shame to the state of Yelang.

Cangjue Kangning ground his teeth and put on his arrow, but he didn't use his so-called three arrows to attack together. She have made everyone astonished. If he had fired three arrows at the same time, he would have been defeated. It would be better for him to stay calm and followed the rules.
