The Abandoned Wife of a Military Family: Your disguise has been exposed again.
Chapter 113 Rong Zhen: What Did He Do Wrong Again?
Chapter 113 Rong Zhen: What Did He Do Wrong Again?
“That’s right. Women are inherently weaker, not to mention General Ouyang is a general on the battlefield. Blindfolded archery must be one of his strengths. Princess Rong’an, please don’t agree.”
"How shameless! Even if a grown man wins a contest against a woman, it's still dishonorable."
The ministers of Wei were all vehemently criticizing the situation, but this had no effect on the two main parties involved.
"Besides archery, what else?" Yun Wei asked Ouyang Kui patiently.
"The second item is naturally the martial arts competition, using any of the eighteen weapons," Ouyang Kui said calmly.
“Okay.” Yun Wei nodded.
“As for the third competition, let’s do something special,” Ouyang Kui said thoughtfully.
"What's so special about it?" Yunwei asked.
"Detoxify," Ouyang Kui said slowly, glancing at her.
"Detoxification?" Yun Wei raised an eyebrow, not expecting the other party to propose such a contest.
She was genuinely surprised.
“Yes,” Ouyang Kui replied, looking her over. Seeing that she didn’t seem surprised at all, he couldn’t help but feel uneasy.
Could it be that this woman also knows how to detoxify?
Ouyang Kui was filled with doubt and surprise.
This competition was suggested by the Seventh Prince.
He originally thought that the Seventh Prince had asked him to mention it because he knew how to detoxify. Now it seems that the Seventh Prince might know this woman and know that she also knows how to detoxify.
He collected his thoughts and continued, "We poison each other's people, and then each of us must give them an antidote. If we can't give them an antidote, we lose. Of course, if we can't give them an antidote in the end, we must also provide one."
Yun Wei hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "Okay."
Ouyang Kui noticed her hesitation, and his doubts vanished. "It's also a best-of-three series. As long as we win two games, we'll be considered the winner," Ouyang Kui said.
Yunwei had no objection.
The competition began quickly.
The first round was archery.
Each of the two has ten arrows, and the rules of the competition remain the same: whoever hits the center of the rake the most times wins. However, both of them need to have a black cloth blindfolded.
With the view obstructed, you can imagine how difficult it would be.
But the two people involved showed no sign of panic.
After standing a dozen or so feet away from the arrow rake, the two began to draw their bows and nock their arrows.
As the gong was struck, the two released their grip.
The arrow shot out like a meteor.
"Tuk!"
Both arrows hit the rake, and both hit the center of the rake.
"it is good!"
Someone cheered loudly.
Seeing this, the ministers of Wei breathed a sigh of relief.
I never imagined that Princess Rong'an would have such strength.
Suddenly, everyone had a new understanding of her, and the cheers and encouragement grew even louder.
Only the emperor, sitting high on his throne, had a gloomy expression on his face.
At this point, he no longer wanted Yunwei to win.
Only if she loses will he have a reason to hold Rong Zhen accountable.
He winked at his trusted aide.
The confidant understood and quietly left.
On the field, Yun Wei and Ouyang Kui each took their stances and focused intently on shooting arrows.
One by one, their arrows struck the heart of the rake without hindrance.
Their unerring archery skills made it seem as if their eyes were not blindfolded.
For a moment, everyone was stunned by the two's superb skills and forgot to cheer and encourage them.
The two were evenly matched, and it was difficult to determine who was superior. Just when only one arrow remained, a bird suddenly swooped down and flew past Yun Wei.
Yunwei had already released her fingers, and the arrow that had been released from the bowstring pierced straight through the bird.
"Tuk!"
The arrow, carrying the bird, shot towards the arrow rake.
This scene was so sudden that everyone was stunned.
By the time everyone came to their senses, the master of ceremonies had already gone to check.
He pulled out the arrow with the bird on it and looked at Yunwei with regret. "Princess Rong'an's arrow missed the mark. Only nine of her arrows hit the center of the rake, while General Ouyang's ten arrows all hit the center perfectly. So, General Ouyang wins this round!"
Upon hearing this, the Wei officials protested, saying, "If it weren't for that bird that suddenly flew by, how could Princess Rong'an have missed? That doesn't count; this round must be played again."
Ou Yangkui tore off the cloth covering his eyes, looking somewhat incredulous.
His heart was in his throat as he listened to the official announce the numbers.
Because the Rong'an County Princess, whom he did not consider an opponent, also hit the bullseye with every arrow.
He originally thought this game would be a draw, but unexpectedly, things took a turn for the better.
Looking at the bird pierced by an arrow in the official's hand, he fell into deep thought.
Others were also deep in thought.
What a coincidence.
Why did a bird have to fly in at this crucial moment?
Yun Wei frowned slightly, but didn't say anything, only saying, "Let's play the next round."
“Princess Rong’an, this round cannot be left like this. If it weren’t for that bird, you wouldn’t have missed. We should have a rematch,” a minister couldn’t help but say.
Yun Wei gave him a cold glance. "A loss is a loss. Why all the fuss?"
Meeting her icy gaze, the minister shrank back and muttered under his breath, "It's obvious someone wants to harm you."
One of the ministers said to Rong Zhen, "Your Majesty, this matter is certainly not an accident; it must be deliberate. We must investigate it thoroughly."
Rong Zhen glanced at Yun Wei, and seeing that she had no intention of investigating, he gave up. "Let's listen to Princess Rong'an and continue with the second round." After saying that, he looked intently in Rong Xin's direction with his phoenix eyes.
Rong Xin looked back at him calmly.
When Rong Zhen looked away, a cold smile appeared on his lips.
Hmph, Princess Rong'an has already lost one round of the competition. Unless she wins both of the next two rounds, she has no chance of winning.
He didn't believe that a woman could possibly defeat a seasoned general.
Rong Xin relaxed.
Rong Zhen instructed Qingfeng, "Take men and keep a close watch on every place, don't let anyone have a chance to cause trouble, especially the weapons on the weapon racks, you must check them one by one."
"Yes."
Yun Wei and Ouyang Kui moved onto the arena.
Ouyang Kui said generously, "Princess Rong'an, please choose your weapons first."
Yunwei didn't stand on ceremony and directly drew a sword from the weapon rack.
Ouyang Kui drew a large knife directly.
The Empress Dowager and the others watched the two people on the arena, whose heights were vastly different, and their hearts were in their throats.
This martial arts competition is different from an archery competition; swords and blades have no eyes.
Moreover, Ouyang Kui is not only physically large, but also a general who has killed countless enemies. On the other hand, Yun Wei is just a woman in the inner quarters. No matter how powerful she is, can she defeat Ouyang Kui?
"Weiwei, be careful. If you can't beat them, just hide. Don't be reckless," the Empress Dowager couldn't help but raise her voice to warn her.
At this moment, she suddenly started to complain about her son.
How can he be so carefree?
He actually let his fiancée compete with a brute. What if she gets hurt? Doesn't he feel bad?
Why doesn't he do it himself?
Rong Zhen noticed the resentful look in his mother's eyes, paused, frowned slightly, and looked at her with some confusion.
What did he do wrong?
