Although the others didn't speak, they agreed in their hearts.

The poem "Nanwu Girls" is rare in the world, and it is enough to be recorded in the annals of history.

They are too embarrassed to recite the poems they have prepared at home.

But Cheng De put on airs and only commented on the word "fair".

Is it that difficult to admit that others are good?

Cheng De's face was cold, and he clenched his hands tightly in his wide sleeves, resenting Nan Baoyi in his hands.

This woman is chasing fame, jumping up and down, without the understanding, gentleness and humility that a girl should have. How could he have such a fiancee? !

Just when she was unable to step down from the stage, Nan Yan said in a charming voice, "Poetry is a matter of inspiration. You are persecuting in every possible way. Under this kind of pressure, no one can write good poems. But I heard that Mr. Cheng's shooting Art is top-notch, I don't know if the little girl will have the good fortune to see the master's archery skills today?"

Although Cheng De was born in a scholarly family, he still has some kung fu.

Especially archery, which is quite famous among young people in Shu County.

The others didn't want to make the young master of the prefect's family lose face too much, so they agreed with great winking: "I was fortunate enough to witness the archery of young master Cheng during the Huachao event five years ago. Miss Nanyan's proposal is good, and I also agree." I really want to open my eyes!"

"Me too, me too! Mr. Cheng's archery skills are rare in the world, what is it to shoot through Yang with a hundred steps, even if it is a bird in the sky, it is said that it can shoot!"

Amidst all the praises, Cheng De looked at Nan Rou.

The young girl has a delicate and charming appearance, with autumn eyes in her eyes, and she is slightly nodding towards him.

He smiled gratefully, feeling very relieved in his heart.

Nan Yan is knowledgeable, gentle, virtuous, and very understanding, which is a thousand times better than Nan Baoyi.

Such a woman is suitable to be the main wife of a rich family.

As for Nan Baoyi...

If she is willing, he is also willing to accept her in for the sake of her infatuation for many years.

However, it can only be used as a concubine's gift.

The two sisters have one wife and one concubine, which is also their good luck.

He smiled slightly, took off his wide-sleeved cloak,

The narrow-sleeved brocade robe inside was exposed.

He dusted off his robe, "Since you all want to see it, I'll make a fool of myself."

As he spoke, he tilted his head and told the boy: "Go, get my Broken Moon Bow."

Two attendants quickly brought a large bow.

The bow is bright red, three feet long, elegantly curved, and carved with exquisite lotus patterns. It can be seen at a glance that it was made by skilled craftsmen with a lot of money.

A teenager exclaimed: "What a beautiful bow and arrow!"

He stepped forward, trying to pick up the big bow and look it over carefully.

But the big bow was surprisingly heavy, and he couldn't lift it up with his own strength!

"What a heavy bow and arrow!" He was shocked. "I can't even pick it up, let alone draw it! Mr. Cheng, is this the bow and arrow you used to? It's amazing, it's amazing! I'm convinced!"

Others were curious, and they also stepped forward to try the weight of the bow and arrow.

Sure enough, it was very heavy, and it was not something ordinary people could handle.

Cheng De smiled warmly, stepped forward calmly, and reached for the longbow.

He looked like a frail scholar, but he picked up the longbow easily!

The exclamation in the hall came one after another, even Nan Yan couldn't help but smile, the joy and admiration in his eyes almost overflowed.

In full view, Cheng De suddenly turned to Xiao Yi.

He said softly, "When I was studying in Chang'an, I heard about the name of Marquis Jingxi. When I trekked all the way back to Jinguan City, the people along the way praised Jingxihou for taking down Yelang in one fell swoop. He was a young hero. I don't know your archery skills. How about this, am I qualified to ask you for advice?"

To Xiao Yi, he was not convinced.

Obviously he, Cheng De, is the most famous young talent in Shu County, but he went to Chang'an to study for a few years, but he didn't expect that when he came back, he would be robbed of all his glory by a humble adopted son!

Just the adopted son of a mere merchant, how capable is he?

I'm afraid it's because Yelang's army is all old, weak, sick and disabled, so he took advantage of it.

And he has been familiar with military books since he was a child, and his shooting skills are outstanding, so the person who should have been appointed as a prince and prime minister is Cheng De!

Now that all the officials and eunuchs in Jinguan City are here, they just take advantage of this poetry meeting to compete with Xiao Yi, so that everyone can know that his Cheng De's ability is superior to Xiao Yi's!

Nan Baoyi hugged Melon.

In her eyes, a powerful minister is omnipotent and skilled in everything.

Cheng De wants to step on the powerful minister to make a name for himself, but he is afraid that he has found the wrong person.

She looked at Xiao Yi.

A young man with a golden face and jade quality is casually drooping his eyes and drinking tea.

The fingers holding the celadon teacup are slender and fair, with well-defined joints. In the mist of tea, his face is smooth and handsome. Can't make people feel disgusted.

As if, he was born to be superior.

Seeing that he didn't answer for a long time, Cheng De raised his eyebrows: "Why, Marquis Jingxi dare not?"

Xiao Yi turned the teacup around.

He sneered: "Ask this Marquis for advice on archery... Cheng De, do you deserve it too?"

Everyone's breath was stagnant.

Jingxi Hou's words are too merciless!

Cheng De is the second son of the prefect of Shu County!

Isn't he afraid of offending the prefect? !

Nan Baoyi couldn't help but curled up the corner of his mouth, and graciously poked a piece of melon and put it on Xiao Yi's plate.

Arrogant, domineering, black-bellied and vicious-tongued are the true qualities of a powerful minister!

Cheng De said with a cold face: "Whether I am worthy or not, you will only know after the comparison. As the saying goes, there are heaven and man outside the sky, and there are people outside the sky. If Hou Mo of Jingxi thinks that he has conquered the Yelang Kingdom, he can look down on people. If I go to war against Yelang Now, it may not be your turn to be honored as a marquis and general!"

Xiao Yi smiled but said, "You just say, how to compare."

Cheng De looked out the window: "There are thousands of carp raised in Guanxue Lake. Although the lake is frozen, you can still see them swimming under the water. Three arrows, whoever can hit the koi within three arrows will be considered the winner." .”

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.

Guanxue Lake is covered with such a thick layer of ice, let alone whether you can see the koi through the ice, even if you can, how can the feather arrow penetrate the ice?

Even if it is shot through, wouldn't the carp in the water run away because of fright?

This is too much a test of archery!

Xiao Yi said leisurely: "Please first."

Cheng De stood by the window, shooting his bow and arrow towards the ice lake.

The broken moon bow was almost pulled into a full moon by him, and the cold iron arrow was shining coldly, slowly pointing to a certain place on the ice.

Cheng De narrowed his eyes.

In the next moment, the feather arrow left the string!

Everyone craned their necks to look.

Nan Baoyi looked around, wondering if he had shot the koi.
