A four-year-old medical prodigy descended to the mortal realm, and the entire capital sought her tre

The princess's archery competition, which had been postponed for a month, finally took place as scheduled.

The archery competition was held at the archery range in the Princess's residence.

On this day, the princess's residence was filled with guests, and the princes and nobles from various prominent families in the capital who had received invitations arrived early.

Some who were overlooked by the princess because of their low social status or poor archery skills also racked their brains to squeeze in.

Zhao Jinzhong, accompanied by Zhou Ruo, arrived at the princess's residence a stick early, according to the time indicated on the invitation.

At the place where the carriage was parked next to the princess's residence, I met the brother and sister An Chang and An Nan.

An Chang got off the carriage and immediately saw Zhao Jinzhong, who was holding Zhou Ruo's hand in one hand and a very eye-catching bow in the other.

An Nan spotted Zhou Ruo at a glance. She had just lifted the carriage curtain and hadn't even jumped off the carriage when she called out from afar, "Young General! Zhou Ruo!"

Standing next to the carriage, An Chang slapped An Nan on the back of the head.

An Nan winced in pain and was startled. She looked at An Chang with a bewildered and aggrieved expression, and then said angrily, "Why did you hit me!"

"What are you yelling about?" An Chang was annoyed with her.

At this moment, Zhao Jinzhong and Zhou Ruo had already walked up to them, and they heard An Nan say, "Did I call you by the wrong name?"

"An Chang, An Nan," Zhao Jinzhong greeted them.

An Nan, unconvinced, asked Zhao Jinzhong, "Young General, did I call you the wrong people just now?"

Zhao Jinzhong glanced at An Chang and smiled.

An Chang immediately chimed in, "Jin Zhong is now the Junior Guardian of the Crown Prince, and Zhou Ruo has been promoted to Princess Anning!"

An Nan's eyes showed envy. "Wow~ that's amazing!"

Zhao Jinzhong smiled again, "We're all family, no need to worry about these titles. Just call me brother, like Zhou Ruo does."

"Okay, okay! Brother Jinzhong!" An Nan kept jumping on the carriage shaft.

Zhao Jinzhong noticed that An Nan had become much more lively than before these days.

I heard that she and An Changzai are no longer arguing much in the Prince's mansion, and the relationship between the two siblings has improved considerably.

Zhou Ruo chuckled happily to herself, then reached out her hand to An Nan and said, "An Nan, come down quickly, let's go play!"

The two little girls held hands and skipped and hopped towards the princess's residence.

An Chang's gaze kept lingering on the bow in Zhao Jinzhong's hand, and finally he couldn't help but ask, "Your bow..."

It looks unusual. Where did you buy it?

Zhao Jinzhong glanced down at the bow, which was a dazzling blue color and was much more exquisite in its workmanship than ordinary bows.

"It was a gift from my sister," Zhao Jinzhong said.

An Chang was stunned for a moment. He looked at the happy expression on Zhao Jinzhong's face and then realized what Zhao Jinzhong meant.

"Hey! Hey hey hey~ Zhao Jinzhong, I think I shouldn't call you Junior Guardian, I should call you Show-off!"

"Are you afraid I won't know you have a younger sister? Do you really need to tease me like this? Fine, fine, you have a younger sister, you're something else!"

Zhao Jinzhong suppressed the joy on his face and said with a smile, "It's good that you know. Remember to prepare more gifts for the 100-day celebration."

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the gate of the princess's residence.

"You!" An Chang gritted her teeth behind him, but couldn't utter any words of rebuttal.

The two walked to the gate of the princess's residence, took out the archery invitation given to them by the eldest princess from their pockets, and handed it to the guards at the gate to verify the invitation.

Zhao Jinzhong looked towards the princess's residence with a puzzled expression, about to say something, but was interrupted by An Chang's words.

An Chang asked the guard, "Hey? Those two girls went in without invitations?"

One of the guards replied, "Is the young master referring to Princess Anning?"

"Oh, right, you know her?"

"I was blind and didn't recognize Princess Anning at first."

The guard recalled the scene just now, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

Just now, Zhou Ruo and An Nan arrived at the gate a few steps ahead of Zhao Jinzhong and An Chang, but were stopped by the guards because they did not have invitations.

The guard said, "Please show your invitations, ladies."

Zhou Ruo asked, confused, "What invitation?"

Guard: "It's an invitation from the Princess to the archery competition. Without it, the two ladies cannot enter."

An Nan pulled Zhou Ruo and said, "Why don't we wait for my brother and the others to arrive before we go in?"

Zhou Ruo peeked into the princess's residence and heard a lively noise inside.

Looking back, she still hadn't seen Zhao Jinzhong, and she was getting impatient.

She thought for a moment, then took out a jade pendant and showed it to the guard. "This was given to me by the Emperor. He said that with this pendant, I can go anywhere."

The two guards immediately recognized the imperial pass and knelt down, shouting, "Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"

An Nan exclaimed "Wow!" again, and the two little girls stared wide-eyed, seeing this for the first time.

"Please come in, my lords!" the guard said, bowing.

Zhou Ruo was overjoyed and told the guards, "I'm a princess too! I'm Princess Anning, so please don't stop me anymore!"

The two guards knelt again, saying, "Greetings, Your Highness! We would never dare to obstruct you again!"

"I should have brought Wulong! My brother lied to me, saying Wulong didn't have an invitation and couldn't get in. Humph!"

Zhou Ruo was thrilled to experience the power of the imperial pass for the first time.

He pulled An Nan along and ran into the Princess's residence.

As the guards bowed to Zhao Jinzhong and An Chang, they said, "The princess is very well-behaved; now we all know each other."

Zhou Ruo dragged An Nan around everywhere, running to wherever was lively.

Before long, the two arrived at the archery range, where twenty or thirty people had already gathered.

Many people have already started practicing against the target.

"Wow, it's so lively!" Zhou Ruo exclaimed, looking around.

"What are you looking for?" An Nan asked her.

"My brother said that the pretty lady will also be participating in the archery competition, and I'm looking for her."

"Who is that pretty lady?"

Zhou Ru thought for a moment before saying, "Yes... the Seventh Princess."

An Nan recognized the Seventh Princess: "Is she the Veiled Princess?"

Zhou Ruo stopped and looked at An Nan, finding the title "Veiled Princess" quite interesting.

She said, "My sister used to be a veiled princess, but not anymore! Now she's a real, beautiful princess!"

A little while later, Zhao Jinzhong and An Chang rushed over to Zhou Ruo's side.

Walking alongside them was the Seventh Princess.

"Pretty sister!" Zhou Ruo exclaimed happily, but she soon noticed the solemn expression on the Seventh Princess's face.

Zhao Jinzhong said to Zhou Ruo, "Ruo Ruo, the Princess is injured. Let's go see her quickly."

"Yes, Ruoruo, come with me quickly." The Seventh Princess led the way.

The group arrived at the Princess's inner courtyard, and before they even entered, they heard the Princess speaking to her husband with a troubled expression.

"Most of the guests have arrived, so why did I twist my ankle at this crucial moment?"

The prince consort looked at the princess's swollen ankle and was also troubled. "A broken bone or tendon needs to rest for a hundred days to fully recover."

The archery competition starts today, so you shouldn't go.

"That won't do. The invitations were sent out months in advance. How can we possibly neglect our guests now?"

Just as the eldest princess was extremely anxious, an announcement came from outside the palace: "Prince An, Princess Anning, and Junior Guardian Zhao have arrived!"
