No matter what, Yun Ruoyue was someone he had just praised in front of everyone. How could she be despised by this debauchee?
If this debauchee looked down on Yun Ruoyue, it meant that he, the emperor, was looking down on him.
"Then may I ask Your Majesty, can Ruoyue and Royal Prince Shunyang have a small competition?" Yun Ruoyue asked Emperor Hongyuan.
Emperor Hongyuan thought for a moment and nodded, "Mhm, I'll make an exception and let you have a competition. It can also be considered as entertainment."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
After Yun Ruoyue finished speaking, she immediately looked at Royal Prince Shunyang, "Royal Prince, even the emperor said it's okay. Do you dare to make a bet with a woman like me?"
Seeing that the emperor had spoken, Royal Prince Shunyang hurriedly said, "Who doesn't dare? Do I look like such a coward? I'll bet that His Highness Prince Xian will win. What do you want to bet? "
Yun Ruoyue said, "Although I'm a woman, I'm also a gentleman. I'll let you say what you want to bet."
These words made Royal Prince Shunyang's face turn red. Yun Ruoyue seemed to be mocking him, as a man, but he didn't have any manners.
However, this was exactly what he wanted.
Recently, he had lost a lot of money gambling and was a bit short on money. Why not take this opportunity to win?
He had seen Prince Xian's archery skills with his own eyes before. It was like he could shoot through the air in a hundred steps. He believed that he could win.
He said, "Okay, then how about we bet fifty thousand taels? If Prince Xian wins, you'll lose fifty thousand taels to me. If The Emperor of Li wins, I'll lose fifty thousand taels to you. "
"Okay, no problem." Yun Ruoyue straightforwardly replied.
She took out fifty thousand taels to play with Royal Prince Shunyang. Most importantly, she had confidence in Chu Xuanchen.
She looked at Chu Xuanchen and nodded at him. She even used her hand to make a gesture of encouragement. Chu Xuanchen nodded at her, his expression still solemn and cold.
When Prince Xian saw this, he felt as if an arrow had pierced through his heart.
Yun Ruoyue seemed to sense Prince Xian's disappointment. She hurriedly said to him, "Prince Xian, you can do it too."
"Thank you," Prince Xian said calmly.
By this time, Eunuch Liu had already ordered the young eunuchs to bring the bows and arrows over. Chu Xuanchen and Prince Xian each drew a bow and ten arrows.
As soon as the bows and arrows were brought up, Eunuch Liu hurriedly stepped forward and handed a bow to Chu Xuanchen, followed by Prince Xian.
Chu Xuanchen was stunned. Eunuch Liu was trying to curry favor with Prince Xian, so why did he give him the bow first?
Could it be that there was something wrong with this bow?
As soon as he received the bow, he checked it and found that there was nothing wrong with it.
Could it be that he was overthinking things?
At this moment, Eunuch Liu said, "Your Highnesses, are you ready? The competition is about to begin. "
"Wang is ready," Prince Xian said calmly.
"Let's begin," Chu Xuanchen said lightly.
When Eunuch Liu saw this, he immediately said, "Good. There are two rows of lanterns on the opposite side. Your Highnesses, please choose whichever row you like. Begin!"
As soon as he announced the start of the competition, the crowd around them immediately boiled over.
In order to see the handsome men, the women all squeezed forward.
"Who do you think will win?"
"I think Prince Xian will win because he's handsome and has a gentle personality."
"I think The Emperor of Li is more handsome. He's also domineering, mighty, and manly. I bet he'll win!"
"So what if he's domineering? He's still married. Prince Xian hasn't even discussed his marriage yet, but I like him! "
"So what if he's married? It's not like he can't marry a secondary consort. I'm already very satisfied to be his secondary consort. "
Yun Ruoyue wasn't in the mood to listen to the chatter of the young ladies.
She hurriedly looked at Chu Xuanchen, hoping that he wouldn't lose. Otherwise, she would lose fifty thousand taels of silver.
