Chapter 503 A great victory
The civil and military officials opened their eyes wide in disbelief, almost thinking that they had seen it wrong.

"What happened? His Royal Highness Changsun...drew the bow of Hou Yi?"

The one who spoke was a general under General Hu.

Having followed General Hu for many years, he knew better than anyone how powerful Houyi's bow was. Many people wanted to get Houyi's bow, but only a few could pull it.

Even if it was Prince Jian, he didn't dare to say that the other party was completely sure.

What's more, this was after he had already gone through two rounds of competition, consuming a lot of internal energy and arm strength.

He simply couldn't imagine how this young prince had done it.

"General, did we take the wrong bow?"

Apart from this, he couldn't think of any other possibility.

It’s impossible that the emperor’s eldest grandson really has this ability, right?
He is not the only one who has such doubts.

The civil officials also suspected that it was not Houyi's bow.

After all, at the second level, the emperor's eldest grandson couldn't even pull the three-stone bow.

A mile away, on a big tree, Ji Li, with silver hair and black clothes, gently waved the folding fan in his hand and said leisurely, "Ashe, what do you think?"

Snake stood on another thick branch, looking in the direction of the horse farm.

After listening to Ji Li's words, he said calmly: "Daliang's three-stone bow is heavier than other countries' three-stone bows, and Houyi's bow is the number one divine bow in the southwest. To pull this bow, you need not only natural divine power, but also sufficient skills."

Ji Li waved his folding fan and said with a half-smile, "Born with supernatural powers, isn't that an exaggeration?"

Sishe said: "General Hu has had amazing strength since he was young. He is the only one who can pull Hou Yi's bow."

Ji Li said with a smile: "Who exactly did he want to embarrass by taking out the Hou Yi bow? Isn't he afraid that his sister's grandson will be embarrassed?"

Sishe looked at General Hu in the pavilion and said, "He should have taught Lu Qi some skills. Lu Qi's strength is not weak, at least he is well-known among the young people, but it's a pity that he met Lu Yuan."

Lu Yuan is truly a child of destiny. He possesses unparalleled talent and has gone through trials and tribulations like hell. Every step he takes is on the edge of a knife.

Others work hard to become a superior person someday, but he works hard to survive.

If he had shown any sign of slackness, Prime Minister Xun would have eaten him to pieces.

Why would a Lu Yuan like this lose to Lu Qi?
Ji Li said with a click of his tongue: "In my opinion, he just wants to show off in front of Xiao Yinhu! Alas, he is only a little bit worse than me."

Snake was staring closely at what was happening in the center of the racecourse.

If Ji Li looked carefully at this time, he would find that his eyes were always on the Hou Yi bow, and his eyes showed the same change as when he saw the Qingluan Sword.

Lu Yuan pulled the Hou Yi bow, shocking the entire horse farm.

If this Hou Yi bow is real, then what about the second level of competition?

King Ming glanced meaningfully at King Jin and General Hu, and asked in confusion: "Oh my, father, something is wrong. My nephew can even pull the Houyi bow, but why can't the three-stone bow move at all? Did General Hu give us a fake Houyi bow, or was the three-stone bow tampered with?"

Lu Zhaoyan said, "Sixth brother, don't talk nonsense without evidence. General Hu is a senior member of our dynasty and would never commit the crime of deceiving the emperor."

King Ming sneered, "What about the three-stone bow?"

Lu Zhaoyan said seriously, "Today's competition is under the full responsibility of the Imperial Guards, and the Imperial Guards are old subordinates of Big Brother. I think Big Brother will not tamper with Yuan'er's bow, right?"

The King of Jin secretly clenched his fingers and said calmly, "I am upright and honest. If you have any doubts, you can ask someone to check. All the bows that have been compared will be kept. If any of them is found to be problematic, I will apologize on my own."

The evidence has been disposed of long ago, why are we waiting for them to investigate?

Lu Zhaoyan understood this principle.

The purpose of Lu Zhaoyan and Ming Wang singing the same tune was not to catch the thief and seize the stolen goods, but to take the opportunity to speak out all the doubts in public.

Once the seeds of doubt are planted, they will continue to take root and sprout as events develop.

Lu Yuan's original quiver was empty, but fortunately there was a spare quiver on his horse's back.

Then he rode his horse over the high fence and entered the final stage.

He aimed at Lu Qi's kite.

However, just as he was about to shoot the arrow, an extremely ferocious golden eagle swooped down towards Lu Yuan's kite.

Prince Jin calmly picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Qilin Qilin, inherits the destiny of heaven.

If your kite is gone, isn't that God's will?
Everyone was shocked to see this sudden change.

"Oh no! His Highness Changsun's kite!"

The president of the Hanlin Academy exclaimed.

As soon as he finished speaking, a falcon, like a star hammer cutting through the sky, slammed into the golden eagle that was more than twice its size without hesitation.

The golden eagle was knocked off balance, and it let out a sharp eagle cry and pecked at the falcon fiercely.

The falcon had its feathers pecked off, but it still fearlessly protected Lu Yuan's kite.

In a flash, Lu Qi suddenly pulled the bow and shot an arrow at the falcon.

Just as the falcon was about to be shot, a sharper arrow came with lightning speed and cut off Lu Qi's arrow.

The change happened at this moment.

While Lu Yuan was rescuing the falcon, Lu Qi turned around and shot an arrow at Lu Yuan.

click!
Lu Yuan's quiver fell.

"it is good!"

The King of Qi clapped his hands in approval.

The generals were shocked and gasped.

"What a great move! You are worthy of being the great general's nephew. This move caught them off guard. We have to admire you."

"Without arrows, Hou Yi's bow is useless."

"Yes, the outcome of this round is already determined."

Listening to the military generals' remarks, the civil officials were unable to refute them.

Pulling Hou Yi's bow is certainly impressive, but victory or defeat is determined by who shoots down the opponent's kite string first.

This difficulty was added by the emperor's eldest grandson himself.

Zhang Qufeng had been holding back his words for the entire day, but now he finally raised his eyebrows and said with pride, "You really shot yourself in the foot. If you hadn't done that, you would have won a long time ago. But you insisted on showing off, and now what do you think? You're going to lose!"

King Rui said sternly: "Qi'er, shoot down his kite!"

Ming Wang stood up: "You——"

It was rare for King Rui to confront his brothers in public: "Sixth brother, General Hu just said that if we can't grab Hou Yi's bow, it would be the same to shoot the kite string with our own bow. Yuan'er didn't refute it."

He continued, "This was supposed to be his way out, but I didn't expect Qi'er to use it in the end. Maybe this is God's will."

The King of Qi smiled gloatingly and said, "Yes, it is God's will. We can only say that Qi'er is blessed with good fortune. After all, only a true Qilin can win in the end!"

Lu Zhaoyan sneered and said, "Are you sure? Do you want to take another look?"

"Tsk, do you want to see your son lose?"

As soon as the King of Qi finished his sarcastic words, his smile froze at the corners of his lips.

The white horse under Lu Yuan neighed and raised its head like a king.

At this time, the King of Qi and everyone discovered that there was an arrow in its mouth.

There was clearly nothing just now, when did this happen?

Lu Zhaoyan smiled softly: "A diversion? You guys are praising my son's leftovers to the skies."

From the moment Lu Yuan snatched Hou Yi's bow, everyone's attention was focused on Lu Yuan.

The only thing that made everyone look away was the fight between a falcon and a golden eagle in the sky.

In other words, if Lu Yuan wanted to hide an arrow, it could only be at that time.

Lu Qi decided to make a feint to the east and attack in the west only after seeing the falcon, but Lu Yuan had already hidden the arrows before Lu Qi took action.

Lu Yuan predicted Lu Qi's prediction.

All the civil and military officials who came to his senses were so impressed that they could not say a word.

"Thanks, brother." Lu Yuan took the arrow handed to him by Bai Ma and pulled Hou Yi's bow again.

What is incredible is that after having shot an arrow with Hou Yi's bow, he actually pulled out another full bow!
What an amazing arm strength!
Even General Hu had never pulled out two full bows in a row.

Duke Jiang's eyes widened: "I want to go back! I want to go back! Be my grandson!"

Prince Fu: It’s really not easy for him to grow up this big…

Lu Yuan and Lu Qi shot arrows at the same time, aiming at each other's kite strings.

Success or failure depends on this.

The kites flew higher and higher, like two ethereal birds in the sky, and the kite strings were not so much seen with the eyes as judged with perception and calculated with the brain.

With two whooshing sounds, the sharp blade broke through the air.

A moment of time was stretched to a lifetime by the anxious waiting.

"Look! The kite is flying!"

"Who, who, who...whose kite flew?"

"It seems... both kites have flown away!"

"Have they all flown away?" Meng Qianqian frowned, stood up and walked to the railing of the Emperor's Terrace, looking up at the clear sky, "How could this happen?"

"Oh, the eldest grandson and the prince both hit the target? Then... who won?"

"No! Look!"

Two kites are flying far away, and one is flying back.

The Grand Minister of Agriculture stood up excitedly: "It's His Royal Highness Chang Sun's kite! His kite string has not been shot off!"

Yu Zichuan expressionlessly reeled in the kite string that he had deliberately let out a long distance.

Chen Long, after disguising himself, stood beside him.

"If you dare to mess around again, I'll beat you up."

It’s okay to scare Lu Yuan, but it’s not okay to scare his sister.

Yu Zichuan said nothing and just hung up the phone.

Lu Zhaoyan let out a long sigh.

He naturally knew that the person flying the kite was Yu Zichuan.

He didn't know whether his rebellious son was frightened or not, but he was certainly very frightened.

Ming Wang snorted: "You said you don't care about winning or losing, but don't you care about it?"

Lu Zhaoyan said: "My own son, what's wrong with me caring about him for a little while?"

The Ming King asked loudly, "Is it a big deal to have a son?"

Lu Zhaoyan said: "That depends on what kind of son it is. Ah, brother, I'm not talking about you."

I don't know whether he was scolding Lu Qi or Prince Jin.

Prince Jin's face turned pale.

All the officials breathed a sigh of relief.

Those generals who questioned the emperor's eldest grandson were either slapped in the face or convinced.

Who said that the emperor's eldest grandson is good for nothing?

It’s a good thing they still believed it.

From now on, they will no longer dare to look down on others.

Emperor Liang looked at the little guy in his arms and said, "Your father won. Isn't that awesome?"

The little guy lifted his feet proudly: "Ma Ma hu hu."

Emperor Liang listened to her soft and baby voice and laughed heartily.

He held the little boy in his arms and stood at the highest point of the imperial platform, overlooking the entire racecourse. The emperor was majestic and awe-inspiring.

"In the third test, my eldest grandson, Lu Linyuan, wins!"

All the civil and military officials bowed down in unison: "Long live His Majesty!"

"Long live your majesty!"

"Long live your majesty!"

Amidst the shouts of "Long live the emperor", Lu Yuan rode his horse, holding Houyi's bow, and walked towards the imperial platform in a casual and unrestrained manner.

The afterglow of the scorching sun chased behind him, casting a layer of divine holy light on his heroic figure.

Lu Qi, who lost the competition, looked somewhat lonely and embarrassed.

When passing by Lu Qi, Lu Yuan casually threw something to him: "Just in case, I'll keep it for you."

It was the Gu bottle given to him by Dou Qingyi.

Lu Qi clenched the bottle in his hand: "Do you want to ask me--"

Lu Yuan interrupted him: "No, I don't want to know anything. I won't gamble anything on a person's conscience. I only believe in myself. Whether you are a gentleman or a villain, it has nothing to do with me."

Lu Qi asked: "Why not give it to Grandfather Huang?"

Lu Yuan said nonchalantly, "I'm afraid you and your father will bite me back."

Lu Qi said seriously: "Lu Yuan, you won this time, but you won't win all the time."

He called him Lu Yuan, not Lu Linyuan.

Lu Yuan did not correct him. He smiled faintly and said earnestly: "Brother advises you not to be stubborn. You should admit defeat when you should. I am so strong. It is not shameful to lose to me."

After saying this, he rode away leisurely on his horse.

From birth to now, Lu Qi has never lost to anyone. He is his teacher's most proud student and his master's most satisfied apprentice. He is gifted and can understand things at a glance. Everyone praises him as a once-in-a-lifetime genius.

But in this competition with Lu Yuan, all his self-esteem and self-confidence were ruthlessly trampled under Lu Yuan's feet.

He clenched his fist little by little until the bottle of Gu in his hand shattered and the fragments pierced into his palm.

The blood and qi in his chest surged, he felt a sharp pain in his chest, and a fishy and sweet taste rose in his throat.

Lu Yuan smelled a hint of blood and raised his eyebrows: "I didn't touch him, it's not my fault."

He pulled the Hou Yi bow in his hand and said, "This bow is good. It's worth all the hard work."

As he spoke, he passed by General Hu's shed.

"Thank you, General!"

General Hu closed his eyes and clenched his fists.

In a competition, he lost the Hou Yi bow that he had worked so hard to obtain.

This was the secret weapon that made him a great general.

At this moment, Lu Yuan was so powerful that no one from Prince Jin's lineage wanted to talk to him.

However, Lu Yuan knew how to treat everyone equally. His son was so angry that he was about to vomit blood, so how could he let him go?
They share happiness and hardships, this is what a father and son should do.

He curled his lips and said, "Thank you for your support, otherwise how could I be so shocked when I pulled the bow of Hou Yi?"

Prince Jin covered his chest where blood was surging.

His eyes swept over King Rui and King Qi.

Their eyelids twitched!
Then Lu Yuan said nothing, but just winked at the two of them, looking like he was doing something secretly.

The two men were shocked!
Don't hurt us!
Meng Qianqian looked at him, covered in glory, riding a white horse.

The light that was once concealed finally bloomed wildly in Daliang.

He amazed the whole world.

Mr. Ziwu bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the eldest grandson of the Emperor is both civil and military, and has the talent of a general. He can inherit the great fortune of the Qilin. Your Majesty, please follow the will of heaven and enthrone the eldest grandson of the Emperor as the Protector of the Nation Qilin!"
