C533 Pot throwing contest

Wei Ru grabbed an arrow and walked over to a spot about 20 feet away from the jade pot. He aimed at the opening of the jade pot and raised the arrow.

"The distance between Princess Jianan and Princess Eleven is two meters. It's much more difficult. Can you invest in it?" Fan Yu from the general's estate said.

Wei Ruchao had a confident smile on his face as he elegantly raised his hand and threw forward. The corner of his skirt fluttered and his slim body swayed along with it, leaving behind a trail of beautiful colors. As everyone was admiring her elegant posture, the arrow had already been thrown into the pot.

"So accurate!"

"Princess Jianan is so powerful." Everyone clapped their hands and exclaimed.

"He's even stronger than me." The eleventh princess, Feng Lingyue, couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"Yue'er is the most powerful one." It was unknown when Xiao He had stood behind her as he said this in a low voice.

As Feng Lingyue heard this, she turned around to see Xiao He looking down at her. She hurriedly frowned and said, "Don't speak nonsense!"

"…" Xiao He lightly smiled.

On the other side, Wei Ru walked back to Xu Xianfei's side after he finished voting. He gave a slight bow to the crowd, revealing a dignified smile, and said leisurely, "Jian An has made a fool of himself. Sisters and sisters, please don't be offended."

"If you call this making a fool out of yourself, then we will all be embarrassed to play around with you, Princess Jianan." The Fifth Princess played with the arrow in her hand as she casually walked to the spot where Wei Ruchao had been standing a moment ago. She raised her hand and deflected the arrow, since the arrow was not even close to the edge of the jade pot.

"Fifth Sister, you can't forget about it this time. It's your turn to drink." Feng Ye laughed.

"This won't do. This princess still needs to vote twice more. If I can't even hit it three times, I'm willing to give three cups of wine." The Fifth Princess had to pinch him and throw him twice. She still failed twice and had no choice but to give up in the end.

"I don't practice much, but I still have to admit defeat. I'll drink this wine." The Fifth Princess took the wine cup from the palace maid's hand and drank the wine in it. Everyone clapped their hands.

"I heard that the emperor had praised the county lord to be a heroic and unyielding woman. Presumably, her throwing technique is not bad either. Jian An really wants to see for himself if he has the honor to do so." After the Fifth Princess finished her wine, Wei Liang said to Lian Ruyue, who was standing there silently.

She also knew from Xu Xianfei that Lian Yueyue was obsessed with Feng Ye, and because Feng Ye was a passionate person, he did not reject Lian Yue.

Hence, she secretly had a thought at today's banquet. She wanted to become the most beautiful and outstanding person in Feng Ye's heart as long as she could become one of them.

"Princess, you flatter me. I'm not very good at the art of throwing pots, but if you want to see it, then show me your face." Lian Ruyue's face revealed a faint smile when she heard the invitation from Wei Ru. It was hard to tell what she was thinking.

Xu Xianfei nodded at the palace maid standing by the side. "Give the arrow to County Lord Rong."

"Yes." The palace maid then placed the arrow into Lian Rue's hands.

"Empress Dowager Xian, let Rong He and the Prefecture Lord compete with Princess Jianan. The result is a total of three times. The more the better, how about it?" At this time, the princess of Yue, Xiao Rou, suggested to Xu Xianfei.

Xu Xianfei nodded and said, "It's just playing anyway. Jian An, you can compete with County Lord Rong He."

"Aunt, there's no problem with Jian An. I wonder if Rong He is willing?" Wei Ru asked Lian Rue.

"Since the Empress has given the order, it would be better to accept it rather than accept it." Without hesitation, Moon took the arrow and stood in the same spot where Wei Ru had been standing a moment ago.

Everyone stared at her. Xu Xian Fei and Wei Ru looked at each other as a meaningful smile appeared on their lips. Xiao Rou secretly clenched her hands as a layer of coldness appeared on her face.

"Lian Ruyue, you can do it." Feng Lingyue shouted from the side.

Lian Ruyue focused her attention and looked at the opening of the jade pot. She used the appropriate strength to throw forward. "Clank," the arrow missed. It brushed past the jade pot and made a sound.

"Ah, what a pity. Just a little more." Feng Lingyue felt extremely regretful as she pouted.

She even cast another two times, but the result was the same. In the end, she touched the arrow and said, "I lost, and I didn't even hit it once. What a disgrace."

Feng Ye's eyes revealed a hint of doubt. He had seen this girl shoot arrows before. Although it wasn't a perfect shot, it wasn't a miss either. How come she couldn't hit the target at all this time?

Naturally, when it was Wei Ruchao's turn, she once again placed her bets on him, causing the crowd to sigh in admiration. Wei Ruchao, on the other hand, had a dignified and humble smile on his face the entire time.

"Princess Jianan is truly a person of both martial and literary skills. It is truly admirable." Princess Yue's wife, Xiao Rou, praised her, gloating as she glanced at Lian Xiyue. "It seems that the county lord Rong He has indeed sought fame."

Lian Ruyue said, "I was originally not talented, so naturally I couldn't ask for fame. Since I lost three times, I was willing to accept my loss and drink to get my punishment."

"In my opinion, this is all just a joke. One drink should be enough." When Princess Eleven saw the three full cups of wine on the plate in front of Lian Ruyue, she was a little worried and thus, she excused herself for Lian Ruyue.

"How can that be? When the Fifth Princess loses once, she drinks a cup with three cups. She doesn't act shamelessly either. Could it be that there's something different with Moon?" Xiao Rou hurriedly said.

"You're right, Princess Yun. If you lose, I'll drink these three goblets of wine." Lian Ruyue lifted up the wine cup, raised her head and poured one cup into her mouth. Then she raised the second cup and drank it all in one gulp.

"Cough, cough …" Perhaps from drinking so much that she choked, Lian Yue covered her mouth and coughed twice as she frowned.

"This King will drink this last cup for her." At this time, Feng Ye took the last cup of wine and said.

"Ye'er …" Suddenly, the expression on Xu Xianyang's face changed. Wei Ru saw that big brother Ye was actually going to drink wine for Lian Ruyue. A hint of jealousy appeared in her eyes, and she secretly clenched her fists.

"Ye'er, your fifth sister has already drunk it. If County Lord Rong He doesn't drink it, then it would be unfair to your fifth sister." Xu Xianfei said.

"Mufei …"

"Thank you, eighth prince, but there's no need. I can drink this little bit of wine." Empress Dowager Xian and Princess Yue are right. Since the Fifth Princess has already drunk, I must drink. Otherwise, if everyone's mood is affected, I'll be guilty of a great sin. " When Feng Ye was about to speak, Lian Yue had already poured the last cup into her stomach.

"Everyone, let's continue playing." Upon seeing her drink the wine, Xu Xianfei spoke to the crowd.

After three cups of wine, Lian Ruyue felt a little dizzy, so she softly said a few words to Princess Eleven before going to the side and sitting down.
