Chapter 307: Good Courage
"Keep it a secret for now." Yan Li glanced at him and pointed at Lan Yue, "Can we let this girl go?"
Chen Qingfeng turned to look at Qi Xuan, who was extremely angry and waved his hand.
A servant hurried over and untied Lan Yue from the target.
"A Lu."
Xuan Xuan was stunned for a moment before she realized that Yan Li was calling her. After she came to her senses, she hurried to the training ground: "Master... Master, Master?"
"These two people are the prizes I got today. Take them to..." Yan Li paused, turned his head and looked, raised his hand and pointed, "Take them to the attic in front."
A Lu responded: "Yes."
Then he hurriedly ran to Lan Yue and helped her up from the ground.
Lan Yue's expression was dead silent, as if she had lost all hope, and she did not resist when A Lu pulled her up.
A Lu half-helped and half-dragged her to Hong Chang, and helped her up as well: "You guys go with me."
Perhaps because she was a woman, although she was dressed like a maid, she was a woman after all, and looked more secure.
Hong Chang and Lan Yue followed her without saying a word.
From this moment on, they no longer belonged to Qi Xuan and Deputy Commander, but to Yan Li's spoils of war.
Whether they lived or died depended on that year's thought. The only thing they could do now was to pray that year was a kind person and would not torture them too much.
Even if they died, let them die happily.
Qi Xuan did not stop them, and Deputy Commander did not stop them either, and let A Lu take them away.
"That maid just now looked familiar." Someone in the crowd said suspiciously, "I think I've seen her somewhere."
Yan Li glanced at her: "That's the maid of the Xuan family, have you seen her?"
Maid?
The man who spoke frowned uncertainly, and couldn't remember who she was.
As the daughter of General Xuan, Xuan Xuan should not have many opportunities to go to ordinary sects. Due to the strict distinction between men and women in Jin, even if these martial arts disciples have seen her, they will not have a deep impression.
Unless she has a close relationship with General Xuan's mansion, or the two mansions have an engagement.
But even if someone really recognizes her, it doesn't matter.
With the identity of General Xuan, looking at the entire Taohua Mountain, I'm afraid no one dares to touch Xuan Xuan.
"The last one is still going?" Chen Qingfeng came over and stood beside Yan Li intentionally or unintentionally, "Let's change to grapes, so that the young prince's extraordinary ability can be better shown. What do you think?"
"It doesn't matter what you change." Yan Li said in a light tone, "It's just that grapes are small, and it's not easy to find the body after the arrow penetrates. What if someone doesn't admit it?"
"No." Chen Qingfeng shook his head, "Everyone present is a good man who keeps his word and will not be unable to lose."
At this point, he turned his head and looked at Hou Xiaohu: "Is it what the Hou Xiaohu said?"
Hou Xiaohu's status is obviously lower than Qi Xiaoxuan and the deputy commander, and his family is not as good as theirs. Although a concubine is nothing, it is enough for him to be beaten away like this.
However, he agreed just now. If he regrets it now, wouldn't he be slapping himself in the face?
Hou Hu was a little embarrassed for a moment.
"If the three women are all won by the prince, can we continue to challenge?" Chen Qingfeng looked at Yan Li, "Do you dare to accept the next challenge?"
Yan Li nodded: "You set the rules."
"What a courage." Chen Qingfeng smiled and turned to look at the others, "What do you think?"
"It's rare to meet a hidden master today, so we must have fun." Qi Xuan sneered, "As long as the prince doesn't cry for mercy later."
Chen Qingfeng knew in his heart that not to mention such a simple shooting, even horse shooting would not be a difficult task for Yan Li.
After all, when they were in Mu State before, they saw her perseverance in training and watched her grow up day by day.
The only thing he was worried about was how this matter would end today?
Winning is not difficult, but how to leave here safely is difficult.
These martial arts disciples are not kind people. If they are angered later, who knows what they will do.
Chen Qingfeng hesitated whether to transfer the elite under his command to protect the safety of Her Royal Highness the Princess.
"Put the grapes in the middle of the head." Qi Xuan ordered someone to bring a plate of grapes and picked a good one from it. "Don't say that this prince deliberately makes things difficult for you. You all saw that the grapes I picked are the best."
The crystal clear and plump red grapes were quickly placed on the beauty's head.
The woman's face was completely pale, and her slender body trembled slightly. She gritted her teeth and restrained her fear.
"As long as this duke can penetrate the grapes and hit the bull's eye of the target, you win." When Qi Xuan said this, he put his hands behind his back and gestured in a certain direction calmly, "This duke keeps his word."
More and more people were watching outside the training ground, and the whispers were getting more and more chaotic.
Everyone looked at Yan Li, secretly guessing who this young man they had never seen before was.
"No problem." Yan Li walked over, stood ten steps in front of the third target, and squinted his eyes to look at it.
Looking at the almost unrecognizable grape on the head of the beauty in front of him, Yan Li drew an arrow and slowly drew the bow.
At this time, at the foot of the northern side of Taohua Mountain, Yan Yun and the guards barely dismounted. Looking at the flow of people all over the mountain, he asked, "Has the princess arrived?"
A young man wearing a dark green robe walked over and asked, "What did His Highness say?"
"Cousin." Yan Yun said calmly, "The eldest princess has arrived at Peach Blossom Mountain. Where is she now?"
"I didn't see the eldest princess coming." The man in dark green robe shook his head, "I have been waiting here with someone."
Yan Yun frowned: "No, she went to the palace half an hour earlier."
They deliberately shortened their time with Yan Li because they didn't want to go to the palace with her.
The imperial brother specifically hinted last night that he was not allowed to support her. They wanted to see if she, the eldest princess, who had gone to Peach Blossom Mountain alone, had the ability to deal with emergencies and difficult family members.
And early when they arrived at Yan Li's palace, someone in the palace reported to them.
But because they were worried that sending people to keep an eye on her whereabouts would cause the queen's dissatisfaction, they did not dare to send people to follow her.
"The eldest princess has a distinguished status. If she comes to Peach Blossom Mountain, she will definitely be cheered by and supported by the crowd." The man in dark green robe is the person in charge of this poetry party, the Marquis of Wu'an Shen Wangzhi said, " I can guarantee that I have indeed not seen Her Royal Highness.”
Yan Yun fell silent after hearing this.
Turning his head to look at the people coming and going on the mountain, he didn't know what he thought of, and slowly shook his head: "The eldest princess did not mobilize troops today, she should have come in a light carriage."
Shen Wang was surprised: "Isn't she the eldest princess? How can she be so simple and simple?"
"Maybe it's because she doesn't want to be in the limelight, or maybe it's because..." Yan Yun paused slightly, thinking about all the things Yan Li has done recently, his brows became gloomy, "She wants to be in the limelight too much."
After that, he walked up the mountain, giving instructions as he walked: "Send some people around to see if there are any suspicious faces."
