When people were in Qin, they ruled the world

Chapter 10 Prey
Archery is the top of all arts in the army. Even Confucianism considers it one of the six arts. For Ying Zheng, archery has naturally become one of the compulsory subjects.

On the martial arts arena of Xianyang Palace, Ying Zheng walked in front of a row of long bows, and looked away from the soft bow on the far left. Today, he can no longer be satisfied with this soft bow that can't pull eight buckets .

"One stone and two are right." Ying Zheng's hand moved to the third bow.

"Your Majesty, Lord Chang'an seeks to see you." When Ying Zheng picked up his longbow, Qing Xi reported.

"Second brother who is lonely." Ying Zheng said and slowly pulled the longbow, and with the sound of the bowstring being tensed, the longbow was pulled into a full moon shape by Ying Zheng.

Feeling the strength of the bowstring in his hand, Ying Zheng felt that this was not his limit. However, practicing archery should not exhaust the strength, otherwise it would be just training strength, not arrow practice.

Ying Zheng turned his head abruptly, and pointed the bow that was aimed at the target at Qing Xi. At that moment, Ying Zheng obviously felt Qing Xi's waist tighten subconsciously, and his palm moved towards her waist even more.

"Relax." Ying Zheng joked.

"Yes." Qingxi also realized that her reaction was too much, this is Xianyang Palace, not a battlefield of snares.

"Chang'an is in trouble." Ying Zheng put away his longbow and flipped through the memories of his younger brother Chang'an Jun Chengyu, but he didn't seem to have a good memory.

"Does Your Majesty want to see Lord Chang'an?" Qing Xi asked.

"Let him wait." Ying Zheng said as he took out a feathered arrow from the quiver, set the arrow on the string, and with a sound of breaking through the air, the feathered arrow pierced through the air and nailed to the arrow seventy steps away. The red heart of the target.

Ying Zheng unhurriedly took out the first feathered arrow, this time aiming at the target eighty paces away, this time, the arc of the bowstring stretched a full point.

Outside the palace wall, a young man who was only fourteen or fifteen years old and dressed in a samurai bunt looked at the cinnabar-decorated wall in front of him expressionlessly, with an inexplicable look in his eyes.

Looking at his appearance, he has a three-point similarity with Ying Zheng, heroic yet noble, but compared with the coldness in Ying Zheng's eyes, there is a sinister air in the depths of his eyes.

He is Chang'an Lord Ying Chengyu, the only younger brother of Ying Zheng. When Ying Zheng has no heirs, he is also the first heir to the throne of Qin.

"This place should belong to me." Cheng Yu looked away from the palace wall.

With the passage of time, waiting for the resentment that Cheng Yu has tried so hard to suppress in his heart over the years will be revealed again.

Before the age of seven, he was the only child in the Qin Palace. At that time, everyone in the palace surrounded him. He was the only heir of the Qin King. However, everything changed when he was eight years old.

An elder brother whom he had never heard of appeared in the Qin Palace, and everything changed since then. Since then, he can only live under the shadow of his elder brother.

Until his elder brother became the prince of Qin, became the king of Qin, and he became the king of Chang'an.

Now, even if you come to Qin Palace, you need someone to inform you.

"I'm not a guest here, let alone a servant here." Cheng Yu said to himself in his heart.

"Mr. Chang'an, Your Majesty is already waiting for you." When Cheng Xun was reflecting, the palace servant in charge of the summons came to his side.

"Thank you." Cheng Yu smiled gently at the palace man, without any intention of belittling him because of his identity.

"Your Majesty Chang'an is being polite." The palace man replied, it was obviously very applicable to Cheng Yu's words.

"Brother Wang, what have you been up to today?" Cheng Xu asked unintentionally.

"It's nothing, as usual, I learned the art of war with the general, and then practiced archery until now." The palace man replied, not thinking too much about Cheng Yu's question.

"Brother Wang's life is really boring." Cheng Yu smiled, smiling innocently and brightly, because such a smile should only appear on an innocent boy without a city.

The palace people couldn't answer these words, but they couldn't help but increase their affection for Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu didn't say much anymore, some words can only be enough, talking too much will only have the opposite effect, turned around the courtyard gate, and the martial arts field appeared in front of Cheng Yu's eyes, above the wide martial arts field, Cheng Yu He saw where Ying Zheng was at a glance.

There is no way, Cheng Yu is always caring and thinking about his elder brother, dear brother.

On the edge of the martial arts arena, there was a table. Behind the table, Ying Zheng was drinking a cup of hot tea. On the opposite side of him was a woman in a palace dress, bowing her head and preparing the table. The tea set, the hairpin on the lady's head swaying slightly with the movements of her hands, Cheng Yu subconsciously fixed his eyes on the long black hair, feeling a little dizzy.

"Cheng Yu pays homage to Brother Wang." Cheng Yu came to Ying Zheng's side and bowed to salute.

"Cheng Yu, sit down." Ying Zheng pointed to the vacant seat on the right side of the table.

"I don't seem to have seen this kind of tea before." Cheng Yu sniffed the hot air floating in the air, only felt that there was a strange feeling in the fragrance.

He himself is a tea drinker, and with his identity, there is no tea that he can't get in Qin, but he found that the tea that appeared in front of him at this time was something he had never seen before.

"It's normal that you haven't seen it. These teas come from the Palace of the Chu Palace. Even Chu people have tasted these teas, very few people." Ying Zheng put down the empty teacup and said.

"Chu Palace?" Cheng Yu asked in surprise, the next moment, he thought of one thing, the princess of Chu who came to Qin not long ago?
"Try it, the treasures of the Chu Palace, the next time you want to taste it, you have to wait [-] or [-] years." Ying Zheng took a cup of tea from Qing Xi and handed it to Cheng Yu.

"Yes." Cheng Yu took the teacup, sniffed it lightly, and then brought the teacup to his lips, but his eyes glanced at Qingxi who had straightened up, a little disappointed.

It's a pity that I lost a face.

"My brother just came to look for Brother Wang, because I need to trouble Brother Wang with something." Cheng Yu said to Ying Zheng after drinking tea.

"Trouble? What's the matter?" Ying Zheng said.

"Mother and concubine have found a marriage for my younger brother, and I still need Brother Wang's permission." Cheng Yu explained.

"Marriage? That's right, Cheng Yu, you are not young, but I don't know which family's noble daughter can get into Mrs. Han's eyes?" Ying Zheng asked, not without surprise.

"It's the daughter of the Bai family." Cheng Yu answered without forgetting to observe Ying Zheng's reaction.

"The Bai family, Lord Wu An's Bai family?" Ying Zheng asked.

In the state of Qin, the Bai surname can be regarded as a rich family, but there can only be one family of the Bai family that can be favored by Cheng Yu's mother, and that is the descendant of Lord Wu An Bai Qi.

Although Lord Wu An was unjustly killed by King Qin Zhaoxiang back then, most of the generals who served under his command were still in office at this time. , it can be considered that he fought with Lord Wu An Bai Qi for quite a long time. Although the number one person in the Qin State Army had died for more than ten years, who in the current Qin State Army can deny the fact that several of those years ago What about sharing love?

Although the Bai family has not produced any more talents since Bai Qi, the favor is still there. That Mrs. Han is shrewd, and actually found such a candidate for Cheng Yu's wife.

"Yes." Cheng Yu replied, but he felt a little uneasy in his heart. His mother Han Ji wanted this marriage for him, and the meaning behind it, Cheng Yu never thought that his shrewd brother Wang would not be able to see it. .

It was precisely because of this that Cheng Yu was anxious. Although he hated this brother Wang from the bottom of his heart, he had to admit that Ying Zheng was more talented than him in terms of power and tactics.

"It's a suitable candidate. The Bai family can marry the royal family, and it can revive the family." Ying Zheng said.

"Brother Wang agreed?" Cheng Yu asked in surprise.

"The beauty of a gentleman being an adult, what's more, this person is still like you. When you are hired, if there is anything you lack, you can ask the lonely brother. My father and king are no longer, so I can't help but take care of you." Ying Ying Zheng said meaningfully.

"Brother Wang!" Cheng Yu said emotionally.

"After all, an older brother is like a father." Ying Zheng said leisurely.

On the opposite side of Ying Zheng, Qing Xi couldn't help showing a smile when she heard these words, and seeing Ying Zheng looking at her, she subconsciously turned her head away, showing a little guilty conscience.

"Brother Wang will always remember Brother Wang's love." Cheng Yu resisted the awkwardness in his heart and said emotionally.
