Chapter 63: 4

The location of Lulitai is conspicuous and attracts all the attention. Xiao Qiao knows how many pairs of eyes are looking at him at the moment. Seeing Adi greeting him under the stage, in view of his identity, in order to avoid suspicion, he just looked at him and smiled back. , without showing too much emotion, but the color of encouragement in his eyes is full of doubts.

At this moment, Xiao Qiao heard the sound of rhythmic clogs stepping over the stone steps in the direction of the steps, so he turned his head and glanced.

On the steps of Luli Terrace, a gradually clear concubine figure appeared.

She recognized it. It is Emperor Su E.

Emperor Su E lifted her skirt slightly with one hand and walked up the stairs, followed by two maids left and right behind her. The concubine's silhouette reflected on the blue stone steps, swaying gracefully, and was walking towards Madam Xu's direction.

When she got close, she was stopped and stopped.

The guard at Lulitai came over and told Madam Xu that Mrs. Su, Mrs. Zuo Fengyi's wife, had arrived and begged to see the old lady.

Mrs. Xu had already caught a glimpse of Su Ehuang, but she remained calm, did not turn her head to look, only asked her to come over.

When Mrs. Zhu heard Zuo Fengyi's wife, Mrs. Su, she suddenly turned her head and saw that Emperor Su E was standing there, her face sank.

The guard went back and released Emperor Su E. Su Ehuang came to Mrs. Xu and bowed respectfully to her first.

Mrs. Xu smiled slightly and told her to be more polite.

Emperor Su E pays homage to the Zhu family again.

Zhu's urn said: "Get up. Although you are a widow, you were also Mrs. Zuo Fengyi in the past. I am only a humble woman in a village. How can I receive such a big gift from you."

When she spoke, her face turned slightly to one side.

Emperor Su E still had a smile on his face, got up and finally turned to Xiao Qiao who was sitting on Mrs. Xu's right hand, and said with a smile, "After Lu Nu said goodbye last time, I often miss my sister, and I look forward to seeing her again. Get your wish."

Xiao Qiao also smiled, nodded slightly, and said, "Mrs. Meng remembers, I am very grateful."

When the two of them were talking, Mrs. Zhu said, "When did you come to Yuyang? You didn't even know about it in advance. It's obvious that we are being neglected."

Su Ehuang hurriedly said: "Madam doesn't know anything. Luli is a hero meeting. I have a nephew named Su Xin, who is the captain of Zhongshan. My son cheers, and secondly, although I haven’t set foot in Yuyang for many years, I always remember my great-aunt and my wife. So I took this opportunity to pay a special visit to my great-aunt and my wife. It was late yesterday, and I wish I could leave the house immediately. I didn't dare to visit because I was afraid of disturbing the rest of my aunt and my wife, so I thought it would be cheap to visit here early this morning."

The corners of Mrs. Zhu's lips twitched slightly, and she said nothing.

In the middle of the school field under the stage, the venue for the horse-shooting competition has been demarcated. At the starting point and the point, the thirty-two warriors each mounted their horses, bowed their arms, eager to try, and were preparing to follow the order to set off.

Su Ehuang pointed to a tall and long-armed young man in a purple robe, and said with a smile: "He is my nephew Su Xin, although he is not a few years younger than me, he has been training in the Zhongshan Army for several years. Fan's hard work has to be appreciated by his boss, so he is fortunate to come to Yuyang to show his skills, which is laughable and generous."

Little Joe glanced.

Su Xin was in his early twenties, tall with long arms, riding a black horse with a gorgeous saddle and bridle, inlaid with gems, and shining in the sun, making him very conspicuous among the warriors. He held his head high and sat high on the horse's back, looking full of confidence.

Madam Xu also glanced at it and nodded, "He's also a young hero."

Su Ehuang hurriedly thanked her for her compliments, hesitated for a moment, took a step towards Madam Xu and raised her foot, but heard Madam Zhu say, "I didn't know you were coming this morning, so there is no setting for you here. Seat. I see that the next horse is about to give an order. Since you are here to cheer for your nephew, why don't you go to the Xuanwu Platform and take a seat?"

Xuanwutai is next to Lulitai and is specially designed for noble women who came to watch the battle in Yuyang City.

Su Ehuang stopped in her footsteps, stared at Zhu Shi, and then smiled: "Thank you Madam for the arrangement. So I will go down. Later, I will visit my great-aunt and grandmother Madam Yu." After speaking, Mrs. Chao Xu I bowed again to Zhu's Yingying, and said goodbye to Xiao Qiao. Then I turned around, took the maid, and went still gracefully.

Su E Huang left, Madam Xu looked as usual, Zhu Shi showed a hint of contempt at her back, and snorted lightly in her nose.

Xiao Qiao glanced at her with no expression on her face, and she was unavoidably surprised.

No one has felt the lethality from Zhu's more deeply than her, so she is not surprised that Zhu's last act almost drove Su E Huang away.

I was just surprised that this girl Su, who was really incapable of picking the wrong spot, was actually so unwelcome by the Zhu family.

Zhu Shi spoke with a gun and a stick, rude.

It seems that in her mind, in addition to herself, Su Nu is also a disgusting object at the top of the platoon.

At this moment, the hustle and bustle in the school ground slowly came to a halt, and the audience held their breaths with a screened voice, and looked at the thirty-two knights who were ready to go in the shooting range.

Xiao Qiao knew that the game was about to start, and had no time to think about anything else, so he concentrated on watching the game, looking for his younger brother.

At the sound of the horn, the thirty-two riders set off in unison, racing to the end of the golden bell hanging a hundred feet away. At first, the thirty-two cavalry went their separate ways, but after reaching nearly twenty or thirty feet, the horses gradually separated their heads. The warrior on the red horse in the front took a bow and aimed at the golden bell, followed by the white-horse warrior. Sweeping away with a stick, the red horse warrior leaned over to avoid it, stabbed with a halberd, and the two fought together.

According to the traditional rules, each person is limited to three feather arrows.

Since someone made a start, the rest of the warriors followed suit. Not to mention the rules allow. Everyone wanted to stop the opponent, so he rushed out of the encirclement early and shot down Admiralty first. With the tight drumbeats that were as anxious as the rain, and the cheering and cheering of the sergeants watching the battle on the school grounds, a fierce battle of you walking, I stopped, and you chasing started on the racetrack. Soon, there were people who lost and fell.

Halfway through the journey, less than half of the original thirty-two rides remained. The rest were injured and fell off their horses, or their bows and arrows were taken away, or they had shot three arrows but failed to win the bid.

Qiao Ci's usual weapon is the double halberd. He has been obsessed with martial arts since he was a child, and he practiced hard in the small school field at home every morning and evening. It was cold in winter and summer, and the wind and rain were no obstacle. He was born with martial arts muscles. The horse of Yi, although it has not been used for a long time, is quite spiritual. Today, the people and horses are one, and the distance is not over halfway, and it has a tendency to stand out.

The other side defeated a samurai who chased up from behind and tried to take his bow and arrow, and finally knocked him off his horse with his halberd staff.

This is the third opponent he has defeated.

Wei Shaojun's martial arts have always been fierce. Although the Luli Conference was a martial arts contest between brothers' barracks, all of them were real guns and real swords, and the warriors used armor to protect themselves.

Qiao Ci was the youngest among the warriors, and he was a handsome man. Many sergeants in the school field also knew that he was the younger brother of the queen, and the horse attracted everyone's attention as soon as he set off. Halfway through the race, I saw that he had excellent riding skills and outstanding martial arts. He defeated the three warriors who were fighting him one after another, and his shots were quite restrained. Unlike some other warriors, they were single-minded to seek victory. The opponent is critical. Seeing that he and the other party fought for more than a dozen rounds on the horse, and finally suppressed the other party, changed his halberd head to a halberd staff and struck the other party to fall off the horse.

Adi's heroic appearance, and the style of everyone, won the applause of everyone in the school field. Although Xiao Qiao was happy, she was even more nervous. His eyes were wide open, and he closely followed the back of his galloping horse. Both hands were clenched into fists, and he didn't even dare to blink.

After Qiao Ci shot down the warrior, he immediately clamped the horse's belly. Qingcong under the crotch also sensed the idea from the master, and rushed to the finish line at full speed, quickly surpassing the first few people. Dao Feng slashed down a big sword, Qiao Ci hurriedly retracted his bow to avoid it, and turned to see a warrior chasing after him, Wu Qi and purple robe, his eyes sparkling, revealing a fierce color, it was Su Xin from Zhongshan.

Su Xin slashed again. Qiao Ci immediately took out his halberds to meet them, and the two of them came and went in the thunderous shouts of the surrounding sergeants.

Su Xin is the eldest son of Su Ehuang's eldest brother. Because Su Ehuang's eldest brother is much older than her, there is not much difference in age between aunt and nephew. Ten years ago, before Xing Xun entered Luoyang, his aunt Su Ehuang married Liu Li for the first time. Up to now, the family has fallen, and many of the children have withered. Su Xin single-mindedly showed himself to his family, because he was good at riding and shooting, and he came from a long way today, just to become famous in the battle at Lulitai, so just after he set off, he shot fiercely, wounded several people one after another, and made a way to see Qiao Ci Yong and fierce, he regarded this white-robed teenager as a strong enemy in his heart. Seeing him rushing to the front, he was about to shoot arrows, and he was willing to let him come out on top, so he tried his best to catch up and stop him. The two fought like this for about 20 times. Qiao Ci became more and more brave, and Su Xin gradually lost. Seeing another warrior chasing after him, he was anxious and came up with a plan. Qiao Ci fell down, and he suddenly shouted. , with a painful expression on his face, and his body is also shaky, as if he is injured and is about to fall off the horse's back.

Qiao Ci immediately retracted his hand, and in the blink of an eye, Su Xin took out a short knife that had been hidden beforehand and had not been used before, and waved it towards Qiao Ci. Seeing the edge, Qiao Ci quickly dodged, but it happened suddenly, but he still didn't dodge completely. One arm was slashed by a sharp blade. Fortunately, he was wearing armor, but the sleeve was also slashed. There was a pain, and he looked down to see The blood had flowed out, staining the white robes on his body red.

It's a bit far from Lulitai here. But Xiao Qiao still vaguely saw that something was wrong. His heart skipped a beat, and he didn't care about anyone else. He got up from his position and ran to the guardrail, watching with wide eyes.

The battle between Qiao Ci and Su Xin was clearly about to be overwhelmed. Unexpectedly, Su Xin suddenly cheated, and instead made Qiao Ci suffer, and the sergeants on both sides immediately cheered. However, Su Xin seemed to have not heard of it. After forcing Qiao Ci away, he gritted his teeth and turned his horse's head sharply, rushing towards the finish line. Approaching, he aimed ahead, drew his bow and fired an arrow.

The first arrow was fired and missed. Kankan brushed past the rope on which the golden bell hung.

Su Xin was annoyed, and hurriedly reattached the bow, aiming and ready to shoot the second arrow.

However, at this moment, another feathered arrow decorated with white feathers had already left the string and chased up from behind, passing by the wind beside him, and heading towards the golden bell dozens of meters away like lightning. Shoot straight.

The arrow was sent by Qiao Ci behind him.

There was an instant silence in the school grounds, and countless pairs of eyes stared at the arrow of white feathers.

The feather arrow tore through the air resistance, ran to the end, impartially, passed through the rope, and finally nailed it to a blocking target.

The rope was broken, and the heavy golden bell could not be suspended. The golden bell swayed a few times and fell on the gong that was attached to it.

With the sound of "Dang", there was a clear and long metal crashing sound.

Su Xin froze, watching the young general in white robe galloping past him like the wind, and when he reached the end, he got off his horse, walked quickly to the target, unplugged his arrow, and jumped on it. On the high platform, holding up the feather and arrow, waving to all sides.

A thunderous cheer erupted from the school grounds. The group of Yuyang ladies on the Xuanwu Stage looked at Qiao Ci and whispered to each other.

Xiao Qiao's heart, which had been hanging in his throat, finally fell at this moment.

Under the bright light of the autumn sun, she could see Adi standing on the high platform with his arms raised from a distance, white robe and silver armor, high-spirited.

And in the huge school field, at this moment, almost everyone is cheering and shouting for his heroic appearance.

Xiao Qiao's nose was sore with excitement, and she couldn't help raising her hand to cover her mouth and nose.

Wei Shao was standing on a viewing platform not far from the high platform at the moment. He looked away from the high-spirited young man on the high platform and looked at the Luli Terrace opposite.

When he saw her leaning against the railing, covering her face with her hands, he was about to cry with joy.

Wei Shao's lips curled slightly. Suddenly, he subconsciously glanced at his eldest brother Wei Yan, who was not far from him.

Wei Yan is looking in the direction of Lulitai. He raised his head slightly, as if he was in a trance, his expression seemed to be caught in some kind of erratic thoughts.

In the university field, Qiao Ci on the high platform was the focus of everyone's attention. Near him, Li Dian, the general who witnessed the whole process, was saying to Gongsun Yang that this young phoenix has a benevolent spirit. Given time, it will become a great tool.

No one would pay attention to this casual glance from Wei Yan.

Wei Shao narrowed his eyes, his expression flat.
