Chapter 46 Game Master
Chapter 46 Game Master
"Didn't you say you couldn't do it? Why did you hit the target the first time?" The two girls looked at the pink ball that was hit by the arrow and was swaying back and forth in disbelief.
"Well, I just aimed as you said, and then my hands felt a little sore, so I released the arrow." Yu Yuanzheng also felt that he was very lucky.
Her body lacked exercise, and she felt a little sore after holding the bow for just a short while.
"I don't believe it. Come again." Yue Yuying gave her another arrow.
Yu Yuanzheng had no choice but to demonstrate it to them again.
"Whoosh!"
"Wow, we won again." The two girls shouted happily, clapping their hands.
Yu Yuanzheng didn't know how she was so lucky.
"Do you think it's because I embroider so often and watch the needle so often that my aim is so accurate?" Yu Yuanzheng made an excuse for herself.
"It's very likely." Cao Jinxuan nodded in approval.
"Madam, these are the dumplings you shot." The maid brought two dumplings on a plate.
"Wait a minute, I'll shoot again. One for each of the three of us." Yu Yuanzheng was very excited.
She picked up the bow and arrow again and shot another arrow.
But this time it didn't work.
"I told you, it was just luck before." Yu Yuanzheng joked to herself.
Then he shot two more arrows, and the fifth arrow hit another one.
One for each person.
The two girls also shot a few arrows, but none of them hit the target.
Even with Yu Yuanzheng as a reference, it would not be fun if I didn’t feel a sense of accomplishment.
"Okay, there are still many fun things to do. Let's go and see if there is anything else fun." Yu Yuanzheng suggested.
"Okay, okay." Yue Yuying agreed.
"Let's go and see the young masters playing wooden archery. Maybe we can play one too." Cao Jinxuan likes this game very much.
Cao Jinxuan was quite familiar with the imperial palace. With her leading the way, the three of them soon arrived at an open space between two palaces.
This place is between the front court and the harem, and most men gather here to play.
I didn’t expect that there were both men and women here. It seems that everyone likes this game.
Yu Yuanzheng was led by two girls and squeezed into a crowd.
She had never seen this kind of game before. The original owner had only heard of it but never seen it.
When I looked at it, hey, isn’t this bowling?
It’s just a little different from the modern one, but the nature is similar.
She can play this.
But when she saw so many people queuing up, she wondered how a married woman like her could compete with a bunch of young men.
"Brother, we want to play too." Cao Jinxuan pulled her new friend and ran to cut in line in front of Prince Jing's son Cao Jinyu.
"Alas, Princess Lingxuan, you can't bully people like this." A young man behind shouted.
"Grown man, why are you so stingy? Be careful not to be able to find a wife." Princess Lingxuan shouted back rudely, with no intention of retreating to the back.
The young man touched his nose and was bumped on the shoulder by the young man behind him: "Okay, don't be so stingy, be careful that you will lose one of your wife choices."
Yu Yuanzheng took advantage of this opportunity and slowly moved forward. There were only five people in front of him, and each of them was only given three chances.
Hitting the red pillar once was rewarded with a Zongzi. Yu Yuanzheng saw that the young man in front of him had thrown three times without hitting a single one.
This level must have never been practiced.
Among the three girls, Yue Yuying was the first to come.
She took the ball, half-crouched, aimed, and threw it.
The result was off.
The palace servant who was serving beside her handed her another ball.
Throw it again.
"Wow, I hit it, I hit it." Yue Yuying shouted happily.
Lively and cute.
The palace maid respectfully gave him a rice dumpling.
There is one more chance.
Throw it again.
"Oh, it missed again. But one is enough for my lunch." Yue Yuying was not disappointed. She was already very satisfied to be able to hit one.
She is a girl who is not greedy.
Yu Yuanzheng smiled and gave her a thumbs up.
"No, I want to throw it first. I'm afraid of being outdone by Sister Yuan Zheng." Princess Lingxuan passed Yu Yuan Zheng in front of her. She wanted to go first.
Yu Yuanzheng consciously took a step back.
As a result, he accidentally bumped into Prince Jing behind him.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to." She apologized immediately.
The prince just smiled and nodded.
He had met this woman for the first time today and knew that she was Ziqi's wife.
He and Ziqi have a very good relationship. They often played together when they were young. They became good brothers when they grew up.
He also learned martial arts from Ziqi, and all the martial arts he knew were taught by Ziqi.
But unexpectedly, an accident caused his good friend to suffer devastating injuries.
But he couldn't save him. He could only help him find out where he could find a miracle healer.
As long as the woman is good to the chess pieces, he will be kind to her.
Seeing how well she's doing with her sister even though she's only known her for less than an hour, she must be a good woman.
Otherwise my sister wouldn’t get along so well with her.
Cao Jinxuan missed two balls in a row and didn't hit any of them, and was very frustrated.
Yu Yuanzheng couldn't help laughing when she saw her pouting lips.
"Come, Princess Lingxuan, I'll lead you in the game." Yu Yuanzheng took the initiative to hold her hand holding the ball. "Aim carefully. Don't use too much force, but let the ball roll gently. Throw!"
Jinxuan obeyed the order involuntarily and loosened her hand.
"Wow, I hit it."
Princess Lingxuan clapped her hands and cheered, then happily took her spoils from the palace servant: a rice dumpling.
It's Yu Yuanzheng's turn.
This game is actually not that difficult. It is very easy as long as you master the method.
As a result, she missed three balls in a row and won the bid.
This drew applause from the audience.
I got three more dumplings.
There is no need to eat something else at noon, the rice dumplings will be enough to sustain you until the palace banquet begins.
Princess Lingxuan and Yue Yuying witnessed Yu Yuanzheng's strength and took her to challenge others everywhere.
Full of rewards.
In fact, ancient games can all be found in corresponding games in later generations, and many later games have evolved from these ancient games.
So it is not difficult for Yu Yuanzheng to play.
During this period, she also met Yu Chaoyang twice.
She is now the Crown Prince's Consort, and Shangguan Zishu is in good health, so naturally there are many people who want to make friends with her.
But they were all wives of the younger generation in their respective families. Unlike Yu Yuanzheng, who was playing with two unmarried girls.
And just as they were playing darts, a small incident happened.
A girl in gorgeous clothes also came to play darts, surrounded by a group of girls of the same age.
But her head held high and the county lady's attire that represented her status directly explained her position.
"This is the granddaughter of the old Mo Wang family, the Princess of Nanhua County." Yue Yuying quietly introduced her to Yu Yuanzheng.
"Oh." Yu Yuanzheng understood as soon as she heard it, which meant that this was the emperor's cousin.
Of course, her status cannot be compared with Princess Lingxuan, but she is also a member of the royal family.
As soon as the Nanhua County Lady arrived, she stared directly at Yu Chaoyang.
The Lady of Nanhua County was proud of her status and never played with people of lower status like Yu Chaoyang, so she never took her seriously.
Not to mention Yu Yuanzheng, she probably doesn't even know whether such a person exists or not.
"Are you Yu Chaoyang from the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion?" The Nanhua County Lady looked at Yu Chaoyang coldly.
It's as if there is a grudge between them.
"Meet the Nanhua County Master."
Yu Chaoyang felt somewhat guilty when facing his second brother's wife from his previous life, the Crown Prince's Consort of Prince Rong's Mansion.
In her previous life, the Nanhua County Lady always treated her condescendingly and never looked her in the eye.
Now she is the Crown Prince's Consort of Prince Rong's Mansion. Her status is not inferior to that of the Princess of Nanhua County, but she feels insecure.
"I heard that you got the position of Crown Prince's Consort through a marriage swap on purpose?" The Nanhua County Lady was merciless and asked the question directly in front of everyone.
