Chapter 131: Warriors show off their power and deliberately win over

Anyang Prince's Mansion has always been a place where a group of aristocratic children from Beijing gathered to have fun. On this day, the archery competition in the martial arts field behind the Prince's Mansion was naturally very lively. Among the people in the 20s and 30s, although there were not as many young marquises and uncles as there were in Nanjing City,

Most of the military attachés accompanying King Zhao were distinguished and meritorious officials. The oldest among these noble sons was only twenty-five or six, and the youngest was only twelve or thirteen. Each of them gathered in small groups, and there were people everywhere.

The sound was loud.

However, it is said to be an archery competition, but there are not many noble men who are really good at archery. Many of them are half-baked like Zhang Yue. Their faces glow brightly when they sit on the sidelines and talk nonsense, but their true colors are revealed after they take the field.

Zhang Yueyuan still thought that his hands were too weak, but he still shot the arrow on the target, and one of the ten arrows hit the red heart. Seeing this, Meng Fan and Meng Tao cheered loudly, and even Anyang

Wang Zhuzhan and others all said good things, but Zhang Yue himself was ashamed.

If his eldest brother Zhang Chao were here, wouldn't he be greeted by a full house?

After a round of shooting, a group of heroes' disciples replaced each other with the generals they brought. Compared with those young masters, these people have truly learned their skills in battlefield battles. They all use strong bows. Within ten arrows,

On the contrary, nine of the arrows hit the red heart. And today, this was all done to earn face for the master, and each of them promised a heavy reward, so everyone worked hard and tried their best.

Zhang Yuenai was forced to come here by brothers Meng Fan and Meng Tao on the way. Naturally, he didn't bring any bow and arrow equipment, so Anyang King Zhu Zhanyao generously lent him a complete set. When it was Peng Shisan's turn to go into battle, he picked it up casually.

The bow was bent and pulled out like a full moon casually. In the end, there was only a burst of sound, and the bowstring suddenly broke in response.

After a moment of shock, Zhu Zhanyao immediately stood up and praised loudly: "What a strength! Someone, go to the warehouse and get a strong bow!"

Those casual aristocratic disciples just now also cast their eyes over, and those who didn't recognize him couldn't help but ask around. Since not many people knew Zhang Yue, and they just saw Zhu Zhanyao personally bringing someone here, most of them

Everyone was shaking their heads, not to mention who Peng Shisan was. After asking around, a family general finally recognized Peng Shisan.

"That should be a general from the British government."

The words "British Duke's Palace" immediately caused quite a commotion. Everyone knew that the British Duke had been ill for a long time. Since the person appearing now was a general of the British Duke's family, wouldn't the owner be the nephew of the British Duke Zhang Fu? How many of them?

The well-informed people put their heads together and figured out who Zhang Yue was, so they gathered around him with a smile.

Zhu Zhanyao gave an order, and there were actually several strong bows sent to him. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Peng Shisan remained calm and unhurried. After trying the bows one by one, he grabbed a three-stone strong bow and strode forward.

He went forward. There were many children from aristocratic families who loved martial arts. However, not many were willing to practice martial arts diligently and became proficient in martial arts. Zhang Chao, who could draw a two-stone strong bow, was already considered to be extremely top-notch, so at this time, everyone looked at it with both eyes.

Even Meng Fan and Meng Tao stood up involuntarily. Only Zhang Yue was still sitting calmly.

After all, he had practiced martial arts with Peng Shisan for three years, and he knew what his abilities were. Although it required monster-like strength to draw the three-stone bow, it was no problem for Peng Shisan.

At this time, even the servants around the martial arts arena were looking around, not to mention those noble gentlemen who didn't even blink. In the eyes of countless people, Peng Shisan grabbed an arrow and put it on the bowstring. Immediately

He yelled: "Open!"

There was silence all around. This loud roar like thunder made several servants who were closer to Peng Shisan dizzy. Several teenagers in their twenties and thirteen years old even hurriedly covered their ears. However, others

But people did not miss the scene of the bow being like a full moon and the arrow being like a shooting star. It seemed as if the arrow had instantly sunk into the center of the distant target as soon as it was released.

"open!"

With another shout, Peng Shisan shot another arrow, followed closely by the third and fourth arrows. He shot five arrows in one breath, and all five arrows filled the target. He just put down the strong bow, turned around and walked away.

When he came back, he bowed his hands in front of Zhang Yue and said, "Fortunately, I have lived up to my fate!"

Zhang Yue stood up when he saw Peng Shisan approaching. At this time, he smiled and said: "Old Peng's archery skills are still not inferior to those of the past! After using up half of the bag of arrows, his face is not red and he is not out of breath. It is indeed a shot with divine power!"

"

It wasn't until Zhang Yue spoke that a group of people reacted. They all cheered loudly, without caring about the distinction between superior and inferior. It is still not far away from the founding of the country. It has only been more than ten years since the Jingnan. This North

Conquests to the south are common. Although these nobles' sons may not have the courage to be unstoppable, they still value heroes.

Seeing this, Zhu Zhanyao clapped his hands vigorously, and a servant next to him who had been prepared quickly rushed forward with a brocade robe in both hands. At this moment, he strode forward, picked up the brocade robe and shook it, and it turned out that it was

He personally put it on Peng Shisan's shoulders.

"Such a warrior is worthy of this brocade robe!" With a friendly look on his face, he praised and sighed, "I have long heard that there are eight great generals in the British government. In the early years, they accompanied the British

The Duke conquered Jingnan, and then went on to fight against Jiaozhi. Now it is really unusual to see him! A few days ago, I heard that the brother of the King of Hengshan made a big fuss in the British palace and injured a general named Peng. I thought it was you!

Brother Wang is young and ignorant, so I will make amends on his behalf today. Come on, get fifty taels of gold!"

Unexpectedly, Anyang King Zhu Zhanyao actually revealed the old story. After Zhang Yue was stunned, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart. Sure enough, even in the face of a huge reward of fifty taels of gold, Peng Shisan behaved respectfully.

There was not much joy on his face. On the contrary, the nobles and disciples next to him started making noises, and even those who were close to Zhu Zhanyao directly inquired about the original incident. When they heard that King Hengshan had been punished by the imperial staff for twenty, everyone looked at each other in disbelief.

This made my heart beat even louder.

With Peng Shisan, a great archer, in front of him, the next archery competition will naturally be lackluster. Even if other generals can hit the target with perfect accuracy, it will not be of much interest. After all, such an accurate archery technique is rare in the military.

With thousands of households, how could an ordinary military officer afford to support such a talent? So, when they dispersed, many people came up to get close to Zhang Yue, but all their eyes were on Peng Shisan.

Meng Fan and Meng Tao didn't have as many thoughts as others. They overheard the conversation between their father and their second uncle one day, and they had long regarded Zhang Yue as a family member. They had just seen Peng Shisan showing off his powerful skills.

Everyone was shocked. They were all sincerely happy for their future brother-in-law. Now they stood next to Zhang Yue, one on the left and the other on the right, acting like his right-hand man.

This man was a talkative man, and when he left, Zhu Zhanyao didn't say much. He just smiled and invited Zhang Yue to come often in the future. It wasn't until all the guests left and a group of servants began to clean the martial arts arena that he reached out to recruit two strong servants.

, commanded in a deep voice: "Bring over the target that Peng Shisan shot at. I want to take a good look at it!"

Due to Zhu Zhanyao's wink earlier, the target that had been shot had long been left aside. At this time, hearing the master's words, the two strong servants immediately found the target and carried it up conscientiously.

After taking a look at their master's face, the two of them quietly stepped aside, but a middle-aged man in a green shirt trotted up to Zhu Zhan's side.

Zhu Zhanyao looked at the target carefully. He saw that the arrow hit the red heart, and all the arrows were crowded together, and the last one, which was so powerful and heavy, was squeezed among the other four arrows.

, it can be said that it is a miraculous skill. He admires it very much in his heart, but if it is someone else, he can naturally try to get it. But it is the person of the British Duke Zhang Fu, and he can only covet it. Moreover, now it is

In the Taiping years, although warriors were useful, they were not the most useful as long as they were not leading troops.

"Did you find out what I asked you to ask about?"

"I'd like to report to the young prince. After a lot of effort, I got some information from a thousand households in Fusi, Jinyiwei North Town. It is said that the person who first accused Zhang Yue had some clues. The Jinyiwei commander sent Yuan Fang to the palace to see him.

As soon as the emperor was informed, the matter never went further, as if he had dropped his hand. The Qianhu also said that one time when he went to see Commander Yuan, he vaguely heard the word "Han" outside.

"

"Han?" Zhu Zhanyao raised the corners of his lips, and then sneered slightly, "Those Jin Yiwei are really good at random investigations, and such a little thing was actually found on Uncle Han. Regardless of them, this Beijing has been run by his father for many years, even if the Jin Yiwei

They are not as well-informed as we are. My father is busy trying to flatter Grandpa Huang, and my eldest brother is not in good health, so I will take care of other things for them. Go ahead and give the order. No matter who it is, Grandpa Huang is not allowed to act recklessly during his northern tour in Beijing.

.Otherwise I will skin them!"

The middle-aged man in green shirt hurriedly agreed, and then asked cautiously: "When I came here just now, Aunt Liu asked me if there were any vacancies in the house that needed work. She said that her relative was now in poverty.

I want to find a job to do. I think the prince’s palace is full of slaves who have signed a death contract, so it’s not easy to decide on this matter, so I want to ask the prince to give me some advice.”

Mentioning the wet nurse Liu's relative, Zhu Zhanyao immediately thought of the actions of Zhang Yue and Meng Min, and couldn't help laughing. Looking at Meng Min's appearance, it seemed that she had a tacit understanding with Zhang Yue, and there might be a marriage between their families.

Seven or eight points accurate.

After calming down, he waved his hand nonchalantly: "Since she is a relative of Liu's mother, you can just pick an easy job for her, and you don't have to stick to a life or death contract. By the way, you can ask someone to see the princess's house later.

The girl has left or not. If she has not left, please stay a little longer. I have something to ask her."

Naturally, he didn't care about the wet nurse's poor relative. He just felt that Zhang Yue was not showing good intentions, and they should know each other. Since they knew each other, he could always get some information from them, which might be useful in the future. Those around his father and the king could argue or not.

The decision had nothing to do with him, and he was different from Zhu Zhanqi, the king of Hengshan.

He does have a son above him, but the son is his eldest brother, and he is not in good health. He may inherit the title of King Zhao in the future. Although it is too conservative to seek no merit but no fault, like Zhu Zhanqi
