Chapter 304 I Am the Bargaining Chip

The men were wearing simple martial arts uniforms and holding large bows in their hands. They were slowly pulling out arrows and aiming them at the woman in front of the target.

There are still some women kneeling on the school field, probably waiting for the next round.

"Tianxuan." Yan Li said coldly, "Go and watch on the school field. I don't want anyone to hit the target, and don't let them hurt those women."

"yes."

Tianxuan took the order and left.

Xuan Xuan turned her head in surprise, and in an instant she saw a figure rushing away, but she didn't even see the man's face.

who is he? When did it appear?

Her Royal Highness the Princess is followed by experts?

"Don't think too much, he is my shadow guard." Yan Li explained calmly as if he had seen Xuan Xuan's thoughts.

Xuan Xuan suppressed her surprise and nodded slowly: "Yes."

The loft here is located in the middle of Peach Blossom Mountain. Due to the view, it can be seen in all four directions: southeast, northwest and northwest.

To the east, there was a meandering stream at the Qingshui River Poetry Party. The water was crystal clear, and the gentlemen and ladies gradually gathered together, placing futons and fine wine on both sides of the stream.

The men were dressed in luxurious gowns or robes, some were holding folding fans, and some were carrying wine bottles.

The women wore floor-length dresses, all covered with light gauze. Their faces and necks were completely covered, leaving only a pair of beautiful eyes exposed. Their wide sleeves hung down, completely covering their hands.

Even the two rare days a year for activities are wrapped up so tightly that the differences between men and women are clearly revealed at this moment.

Yan Li looked away, glanced in the direction of Nanyuan, and asked lightly: "What are the activities in Xiyuan and Beiyuan?"

Xuan Xuan came back to her senses, her expression a little subtle: "The situation in Beiyuan and Nanyuan is somewhat similar, except that they don't compete with each other, they compete with each other for throwing money. Whoever throws more money can take away some of the young people who will be introduced today."

Yan Li turned around: "Young man?"

"Yes." Xuan Xuan turned to look to the north, where there was an independent courtyard. "Some dignitaries like beautiful young people. They usually hang out in various brothels and raise many handsome young people. On such an occasion today, they Some more elegant activities will be planned, but how elegant they will be is generally unknown to outsiders.”

Yan Li frowned.

"There is a dedicated person in charge of Beiyuan, and all the guests inside can only enter after receiving special invitations." Xuanxuan said, "Young masters without special hobbies are usually not interested in Beiyuan and would not want to find out what is going on." mind, so fewer people understand it.”

After that, I would like to add something about Xiyuan: "Xiyuan is a food street."

Yan Li looked in the direction of Xiyuan. On the long mountain road, vendors were setting up food stalls in an orderly manner, including steaming wonton dumplings, ice-cold sour plum soup, and various candied snacks... Among the crowds, maids or waiters were passing by. The servant is choosing food of suitable taste for his master.

"There are no special activities in Xiyuan. They will prepare a variety of food and tea for those who come to participate in the poetry and flower party today. There are both common and uncommon ones. You can also accept the challenge. The loser must Agree to some of the conditions put forward by the other party." Xuan Xuan frowned, "If someone deliberately makes things difficult later, the princess doesn't need to pay attention."

In this way, the most inhumane thing is Nanyuan's concubine-changing game.

Yan Li felt confident and roughly understood what was going on at the Poetry Flower Party, and turned his gaze towards Nanyuan. ŴŴŴ.

Just as an arrow passed through his sight, it flew towards the woman's head, but flew out from the side of her head.

Although the distance was a bit far and it was not clear what was placed above the woman's head, it was obvious that the arrow missed the target and the woman temporarily maintained her innocence.

Yan Li turned around and walked down to the attic: "Let's go to Nanyuan to join in the fun. Maybe we can win a few concubines back today."

Xuan Xuan followed up in surprise: "Young Master also wants to compete?"

"Um."

"But Young Master has no leverage, they won't let you participate."

Yan Li paused slightly, and her voice was so calm that it was almost ruthless: "I am the bargaining chip."

After saying this, she walked towards Nanyuan without looking back.

There was a lot of booing in the huge school field.

"Master Qi, can you do it? Three arrows in a row missed the direction. It seems today that you can't take away the beauty you're interested in."

The man called "Mr. Qi" was the man who missed the arrow just now. He was wearing a green robe. He looked at the direction where the arrow flew out, frowned, and cursed secretly that he had seen a ghost, and his face became gloomy.

"I don't dare to say anything else. This archery skill is obvious to all. I have never missed three times in a row." Qi Shaoxuan turned to look at the other men on the school field. "If I say that no one is up to something, do you believe it?"

When the men heard this, they looked at each other for a moment.

Looking at the direction where Qi Shaoxuan's arrow had just shot, the woman in red was holding an apple on her head. Her face was already pale and colorless. If you look closely, you can see that her body was obviously shaking.

"Young Master Qi is not in good condition today. It's better for me to take over." A man in a black robe came over and reached out to take the bow from his hand. "Young Master Qi can go and rest for a while."

"Vice-Commander Zuo is about to come on stage?" Someone nearby shouted, "I wonder which beauty the Vice-Commander is interested in?"

Three beauties stood in front of the three arrow targets, all with pale faces, staring at the deputy commander with fear and uneasiness, fearing that they would be chosen by him.

However, the sad thing is that even if they are not selected this time, they will only live in fear for half an hour. Someone will still select them in the next round.

Since they were brought to the training ground of Peach Blossom Mountain in the morning, their fate was doomed. It was almost impossible for them to return alive and well.

Despair slowly emerged in the eyes of the women.

Deputy Commander Zuo was thirty-five or thirty-six years old. He was the deputy commander of the Royal Guard Cavalry Battalion. He was best at riding and shooting.

Once he shot, he would not return empty-handed.

Pulling out the arrow, Deputy Commander Zuo tried the bow first, and then slowly looked at the three beauties in front of the target.

He took a fancy to the woman in the middle, and slowly aimed the bow and arrow in his hand at the top of the woman's head.

"Deputy Commander Zuo has taken a fancy to the beautiful concubine of Mr. Qi?" The other men laughed, "Mr. Qi failed three times in a row and failed to get the beauty he wanted. If he loses another beautiful concubine at once, the loss today will be great."

Qi Shaoxuan's expression was ugly, not because he didn't get the beauty, nor because he was about to lose a beautiful concubine.

But because the man's self-esteem was hit.

But the game has just begun, it is too early to be discouraged.

"What's a beautiful concubine?" He smiled generously, not caring at all, "If Deputy Commander Zuo is serious today, I'm afraid all the women on the field will be taken away by him."

"Don't worry, this commander is not that greedy." Deputy Commander Zuo laughed, staring at the beauty in front of the target in the middle, and slowly pulled the bow in his hand.

The woman closed her eyes in despair.

Whoosh!

A strong wind cut through the air, and the arrow flew away.

The men on the training ground held their breath and stared at the direction where the arrow was shot, almost unable to resist clapping and cheering.

However, as soon as they opened their mouths, their smiles suddenly froze at the corners of their mouths.
