Lou Zigui and Lou Anhao greeted the crown prince and the Ninth Imperial Uncle respectively.
The Emperor bestowed them with seats, and the group of people sat down just like that.
Bringing a girl to school was obviously his fault!
Xu Zheng pretended to look at Lou Zigui and was surprised. "Third Miss Lou was dressed in men's clothes at the time, it seems to be true now."
They had caused Lou Zigui to vomit blood, so she couldn't help but ask, "Really? "This humble girl thought that the Fifth Prince had already known for a long time that it was this humble girl. The day she accompanied the empress dowager, she also paid her respects to the Fifth Prince!"
"…" The Fifth Prince choked.
There must have been a report of the Fifth Prince's incident at the Wulin Congress to the Emperor, but he definitely did not mention anything about Lou Xinyue. Therefore, she didn't bring up matters of her own, but everyone knew about the empress dowager's matters!
Therefore, if she were to say that she had committed the crime of cheating on the monarch, she would have to be dragged down by him as well.
Only Lou Anhao knew that the Emperor wanted to see her, but the Fifth Prince still put on an act and said that he was the only one who knew!
Wasn't this also deceiving the king?
The Fifth Prince's face instantly turned black. "At that time, I didn't recognize you!"
He looked at Xu Zheng, who was also embarrassed, and quickly replied, "At that time, I did not recognize the Third Miss Lou, and never thought that the high-spirited archer would be the Third Miss Lou!"
Everyone present were all smart people. Everyone could hear what they were saying, but no one would say anything.
When the Ninth Imperial Uncle was not alone with Lou Zigui, he became like the one described in the book, aloof and indifferent. In front of the emperor, he also sat upright, but he still looked at Lou Zigui with a smile that was not a smile.
The emperor pretended not to notice Fifth Son's awkwardness and continued, "Speaking of which, I am also interested to see the archery skills of the Lou family's daughter! Lou Yetu is a resolute and resolute man, it is said that tigers don't have dogs, and their sons are all talented. I wonder, how is there any difference to your daughter's upbringing? "
"This humble subject is terrified!" Lou Anhao was anxious and modest, "My sister is just a little mischievous!"
The Emperor was unhappy. "I only want to see the archery today. Why does my beloved daughter always shirk me!"
"This official dares not!" Lou Anhao quickly kneeled down.
Lou Zigui thought that Lou Anhao definitely had his reasons for not letting her do this, so she was also conflicted over whether or not he should do it.
"Since the Emperor wants to see, then the Third Miss Lou need not be too modest. Let the Emperor have a look!" The one who spoke was Ninth Imperial Uncle Baili Xuanrui.
His expression was relaxed and he inadvertently gave Lou Zigui a great deal of encouragement. It was as if he was telling her that whatever she did didn't matter to her at all.
Of course, she also knew that this was definitely an illusion.
However, now that she had already said that, she was just rejecting being 'hypocritical'.
Everyone already knew that she knew how to shoot, so her performance was just a confirmation!
"Your majesty, this commoner saw that the emperor was a little nervous, but if the emperor doesn't mind, let this commoner give it a try!"
"Alright!" The emperor was overjoyed.
It was the first time she had ever acted for anyone.
What kind of show was this? It really made people nervous.
Her clothes were rather light today. Under the guidance of the eunuch, she picked up her bow and arrow and walked towards the place where the Emperor was just standing.
As for the Emperor and the others, they were sitting in a resting place as if they were watching a show.
Lou Zigui observed the training ground. It was not bad at all. Compared to her previous practice fields, they didn't have any high-tech equipment that could be used in modern times.
Since she was going to coax these old men, she might as well do something about it.
She spoke a few words to the eunuch, who was rather surprised, and asked her if she was sure. When she nodded, he hurried to report to the Emperor.
"Long live Master, the Third Miss Lou said to put an egg before the arrowhead."
The emperor raised an eyebrow. "This young lady is really confident!"
Lou Anhao's expression was unsettled. The crown prince and the fifth prince both felt that she was trying to be brave, but only the Ninth Imperial Uncle was present.
The eunuch accepted the order and hurried to make the arrangements.
As soon as the emperor stood still, how could the people below him not be efficient? They were quickly prepared and tied an egg with a rope. Then they hung it not far from the handle of the arrow.
This was the first time she had done such a difficult task.
However, in her current state, she seemed to have returned to the time when she was extremely interested in archery. Now that there was a challenge, her interest was piqued!
Concentrating her attention, she was no longer the female cannon fodder Lou Qinyue. Instead, she was the police's Sharpshooter, Lou Qinyue.
She was not very bold, not very capable at solving cases, and wasn't very serious either. For her to be able to do it, it was probably due to her skill that she was able to. Then, she would become a Sharpshooter!
Perhaps it was because of her stance, but it actually caught the attention of the several people watching in varying degrees.
Even the Ninth Imperial Uncle s were the same.
The emperor looked at him thoughtfully before chuckling, "Speaking of which, this daughter of the Lou family saved Ninth Brother before. She can be considered the benefactor of the royal family!"
Baili Xuanrui lowered his head. "Yes, the Emperor also knows that Chendi indeed owes her a favor."
The reason the Emperor brought up this topic was to test Baili Xuanrui's attitude. However, he did not expect the other party to be so straightforward. Baili Xuanrui was not such a person, he would definitely not reveal his feelings. Now that he admitted it, that meant that he was protecting Lou Zigui?
After all, he said she owed him a favor!
This thought came to the mind of the Crown Prince and Fifth Prince as well. The two of them looked at their young imperial uncle who wasn't too far away in age at the same time.
The emotions that were revealed were also the same: doubt and surprise.
There was no mistake. Previously, this little imperial uncle had been extremely disgusted by Lou Zigui's words about Lou Zigui hurting his head in order to save him!
"Hmm, let's not talk about it anymore. Let's enjoy watching this girl show her skills!" The emperor was in time to change the topic and focus everyone's attention on Lou Zigui.
As for Lou Xinyue, she had just finished adjusting her state of mind. She had no idea about their situation; she was only responsible for her own emotional adjustment.
Lift your arm, draw your bow, place your arrow, aim...
"Ceng!", let go, the arrow leaves the bow...
"Ka" had to pass through the egg and then "Ding!"
"Alright!" The Emperor rose from his throne.
Lou Zigui didn't know what the result would be, but she kept her bow and handed it to the eunuch at the side before turning back calmly.
She walked up to the Emperor to show that she had made a fool of herself, and the results were out. The eunuch carried two trays of eggs, one of them, and the other the results of his descent from the arrowhead.
He respectfully showed it to the Emperor.
The emperor naturally didn't have to make a move, but the result was obvious.
The egg penetrated through the middle, and the structure of the arrow was also 10 points, right through the heart of the target!
"Alright!" After reading the result, the emperor clapped once again. He looked at Lou Zigui and said, "Sure enough, tigers don't have any sons or daughters! This girl Lou Yetu is really good at teaching! "
Taking advantage of the emperor's happiness, Lou Xinyue boldly stepped forward and knelt in front of him.
"What is this? It's not like I made you kneel, why are you still like those people in the palace, kneeling down at any moment! "
She was a new human, a modern human. Did he think she liked to kneel?
"Your Majesty, please forgive me, but this humble daughter wishes to request that Your Majesty not blame her family for going to the academy, and that it was this humble daughter who had the willful nature to disturb my brother. My brother was also forced to do this because of helplessness, and this humble daughter wasn't doing it for fun, but since ancient times, it has been said that a woman's lack of talent is a virtue, until Your Majesty ascended the throne and began to pay attention to her culture. This humble daughter has always admired Your Majesty …"
Lou Xinyue admired herself, and flattering her was a given.
The female lead had a strong backer. If she wanted to fight with the female lead or change her fate, she needed a strong backer. And in this dynasty, was there anyone stronger than the emperor? Although she didn't know if the emperor was truly happy or just faking it, whether he truly admired her or had other plans in mind, on the surface, it was always better to have the emperor as a big backer!
She continued, "However, a girl's teaching ability can only be taught at home, and much of her knowledge is restricted. This humble girl originally thought that a girl might be able to attend the academy, which was why she wanted to take a look!"
"Oh?" The Emperor seemed very interested.
Indeed, the background of this story was still relevant to the emperor's plans. This emperor had also developed many systems and ideas that had never appeared before.
Otherwise, there would not have been a princess proposing such a "kickboxing" competition!
Of course, Lou Zigui knew that the author set this background up to give the female lead a chance!
the Emperor asked her. "What do you think now?"
"Mm, this humble girl thinks that the emperor is wise!"
The Emperor laughed. "Don't give me a high hat! Tell me what you think. "
He said so, but his expression showed that he didn't hate it.
"This is because this humble daughter knows that nothing can be done in one fell swoop. The Emperor released his woman's talent first, but did not give her more freedom. His Majesty has your long-term considerations!" She replied in a tone that was neither servile nor overbearing.
A light flashed in the emperor's eyes.
"crescent!" Lou Anhao was uneasy and hurriedly scolded Lou Zigui, and at the same time apologized to the emperor, "Please forgive my lord. crescent is young and insensible! It's not that I want to offend the Emperor! "
"Eh, did I say anything?" The emperor's expression was calming. "You are a dignified general of the left side. You are not as daring as your sister!"
Was she praising Lou Zigui?
The Emperor was still quite satisfied with what he saw today. However, in the end, he suddenly changed the subject and asked, "However, I heard that the little girl was injured in order to save our Ninth Brother. How is she now?" "There's an imperial physician in the palace. Today, we'll let him examine us before we go back."
This could also be considered a form of Emperor's grace.
In any case, no matter how hard she checked, she couldn't find anything, so she was not afraid at all, so she calmly accepted.
