Chapter 129 Women are as good as men!
There were quite a lot of people participating in the pot-throwing competition. There were twenty-three young ladies in total who signed up to participate in this pot-throwing competition.
As the number one seed, Shen Ruyi became the representative of the Prince's Mansion and the royal family, and everyone had high expectations for her.
Qin Beiyu was even more nervous and was temporarily teaching Shen Ruyi the technique of throwing pots.
"Ruyi, you must use your arm to exert force with the hand holding the arrow. Never use your wrist to exert force, understand?
You don't have much strength in your wrist, so it's easy for you to miss the target. The key to pitching a pot is to have enough strength so that you can throw it into the target with high accuracy!
Like this, you must use your arms to exert force, and your wrists must not shake. Put the strength into your arms, and you will be able to throw the arrow in in one go!"
Prince Qin Jinan was also anxious. His family had already treated Shen Ruyi as their little girl. Prince Qin Jinan said, "Ruyi, when you go to participate in the competition, just follow what your cousin said, okay?
In fact, it doesn’t matter whether you win the game or not, the most important thing is to be safe and not get hurt by the arrow! "
Shen Ruyi: "Although I don't play pot throwing often, I think it's not that difficult!
I will try the method my cousin told me a few times and practice it!
Your Highness, uncle, just wait. Ruyi will definitely win the championship. When I win the championship, I will share it with you!"
Empress Su said worriedly, "Ruyi, have you ever played the game of pitching pots before? Are you sure about it?"
Shen Ruyi: "Grandmother, don't worry. Even though I haven't played it much before, my cousin just told me how to play pot tossing and taught me all the techniques. I think there will be no problem!"
Emperor Bogu and Empress Su were so happy to see that their grandson liked little Ruyi and was so close to the girl that they couldn't stop smiling. The happiest people tonight were the two couples, old and young, in the royal family!
Shen Ruyi is the little girl who grew up in their care. She is smart, well-behaved, and smart.
The main thing is that the girl is kind-hearted and can read people's expressions. If she becomes Qin Beiyu's wife in the future, she will be the future queen. She is a really good choice!
Empress Su even planned to go back and discuss with Emperor Bogu what kind of dowry they should prepare if her grandson married Shen Ruyi.
Finally, the people from the Ministry of Rites were ready and announced that the pot-tossing competition would begin: the twenty-three girls were divided into two teams, and two groups competed at the same time!
Shen Ruyi was assigned to the first team, which was the group that was playing the yellow arrow throwing game. They were all wooden feather arrows, and the pointed end of the wooden arrows was wrapped with cotton balls. A copper pot was placed there, and two teams of girls played at the same time, with each person having five arrows.
After all five arrows are thrown, they will be counted in the results. Even if one person has finished the competition, it will be the next person's turn.
The first round is an elimination match to decide the ten people with the best results. After the ten people advance, each person shoots eight arrows, and then the three with the best results will be decided. These three people will each shoot ten arrows to decide the first, second and third places!
Shen Ruyi stood there and became the most dazzling girl in the whole audience. Her height was not particularly tall, but she had fair skin, beautiful face, and a nice figure with a golden ratio!
She was not like other little girls who were shy, embarrassed, and restrained. She was a confident and radiant little girl. She stood there holding an arrow and looked towards her home, then turned to look at her aunt and Crown Prince Qin Jinan and grinned!
Her smile was so lethal that it instantly made everyone in the audience's heart beat faster and their hearts leap with joy!
The official from the Ministry of Rites was also stunned for a moment, and then when he came to his senses, there was a clang! The gong sounded!
Shen Ruyi used Qin Beiyu's method, holding the arrow and pouring strength into his arm, aiming at the copper pot and throwing it hard! It went in with a clang!
The whole family of Emperor Bogu cheered! The Fuguo Mansion was also in an uproar. Wei Zhendong and his wife were so nervous that they dared not breathe. Wei Wanlin cheered loudly: "Good! Ruyi is stable, just play normally!"
Wei Wanqian stood up and said, "Come on, sister! You got them all... you got them all!"
Shen Ruyi nodded proudly, and her little look was like a beautiful and confident little peacock!
She clenched her hands a few times, and then followed the same method and threw all four arrows in her hand into the copper pot!
The official who was recording the results on the side drew five dots under Shen Ruyi's name!
After Shen Ruyi finished the competition, she rushed to her mother and father like a proud little rooster.
Wei Zhendong said with a smile: "Ruyi's kung fu training has paid off. Now it looks like Ruyi will win the championship!"
Shen said lovingly, "Ruyi, are you cold? The temperature in the hall is not too bad, but you are not wearing much today."
"Mom, I have a game soon. I'm not cold, I'm hot... My blood is boiling!
Let’s go! Follow your sister… Let’s go to your cousin’s place to watch the game, it’s close!”
Wei Wanqian is a small boy, a little fan of his sister. He was led there by his sister with a smile on his face. Prince Qin Beiyu was sitting there watching the game!
Qin Beiyu loved his cousin so much that he put him between him and Shen Ruyi. The three of them watched with great interest. How could those ladies in the boudoir be a match for Shen Ruyi? There were very few who could throw three out of five arrows!
Shen Ruyi said to Wei Wanqian: "Wanqian, when we have the math competition later, you must remember to get the math cards. When you come back, you must calculate carefully. Don't be in a hurry. Get five cards after you finish calculating. With your speed, I think you can definitely get first place!"
Wei Wanqian looked at his sister and said, "Sister, if you win the pot-tossing competition, I can win the arithmetic competition!
I don’t want to sit with that idiot Chen Wenyi this year. He is a big idiot!
If it hadn’t affected me, I would have been able to do a few more questions last year!"
Shen Ruyi smiled and said, "He will probably be able to participate this year. I don't know where their family got the confidence to let a player like him compete!"
Qin Beiyu sat there without blinking, looking at Shen Ruyi and then at Wei Wanqian. For some reason, he thought that these two siblings were quite interesting!
Emperor Bogu, Empress Su, the Crown Prince and his wife, couldn't help laughing when they saw the look of their silly boy, but they all knew that this matter could not be rushed and the silly boy had to do it himself.
Shen Ruyi won the qualification without any suspense. She winked at Qin Beiyu and her brother and said, "Come on!"
Shen Ruyi participated in the promotion competition and got all eight correct answers! She was directly promoted to the top three!
The last three people stood there, competing with each other in their hearts. Each of them wanted to get the first place!
Shen Ruyi held ten arrows in her hand and said with a smile: "Today, let's show you what it means that women are as good as men!"
Everyone saw that after the little girl stood firmly, she held the quiver in her left hand and threw the arrow with her right hand!
Boom blah blah... blah blah blah...
Shen Ruyi's ten arrows all hit the target! Instantly, the family of Emperor Bogu and the family of Duke Fuguo cheered!
Qin Beiyu's lips curled slightly, and he loosened his clenched black fist. The next second, he was thrown into the arms of a little chubby boy, who whispered in his ear: "We won, we won..."
The man's ears suddenly buzzed. If this wasn't her brother, he would have thrown him out...
