Chapter 108 Who is the fisherman? (1)
Lin Qing has returned and stirred up the boundless unstable situation again. However, Zhao Zimu couldn’t intervene in this anymore. At this time, she was also in the nortgwest and meeting her upcoming challenges. The whole situation in the northwest began to change because of her.
It is already well-known that Zhao Zhong is Lin Qing’s underling and her wonderful deed had spread throughout the army. Now, her every move would attract people’s attention.
Originally, everyone thought that such a person would have a bright future if she stayed in the northwest. With her achievement, Chen Jin would at least make her the leader of the troop of hundred and it was extremely probable that she could achieve higher position with her abilities.
Unexpectedly, on the second day that Lin Qing left, someone came to cause her trouble. The one who came to cause trouble for her was no other than Situ Yuanxiao who refused to leave the northwest.
Everyone felt sorry for Zhao Zimu and didn’t know how she had provoked Situ Yuanxiao. Although, it was Chen Jin’s territory here, it would be no difficulty if a prince really wanted to target a small soldier.
Situ Yuanxiao looked at the person in front of him and couldn’t help but sneer, “Zhao Zhong, we meet again!”
Zhao Zimu ignored him and seemed to be silently waiting for him to finish. Situ Yuanxiao said more arrogantly, “I have long seen that you are not a good thing. I didn’t expect that you fooled around with Lin Qing!”
This time, Zhao Zimu looked at him. Her clear and dark eyes stared at him and said, “Your Highness, what do you want to say? Jiu Qiansui is an important officer of the court. This subject doesn’t feel anything wrong with following him. If you looked for this subject to say these, then this subject understood. This subject still has things to do and won’t bother you.”
As she spoke, she wanted to bid goodbye to him. Situ Yuanxiao became angry and shouted, “Stop!”
Zhao Zimu stopped and Situ Yuanxiao looked at her with a sneer, “I heard that you are amazing. Let’s have a competition and see whether you have an undeserved reputation. Shooting arrow while riding a horse. If you win, then, I will let you off this time. If you lose, then roll out of the northwest and don’t let me see you ever again!”
Zhao Zimu looked at him in surprise. She didn’t expect that this fifth prince who seemed more naïve than his brothers would also act like a hoodlum. If she wins, he will let her off one time. If she lost, she would have to roll out of the northwest forever. This calculation, why didn’t he become a merchant? With his shrewdness, he could definitely fraud a large number of people.
Also, before Zhao Zimu could agree, he walked out of the camp first. Hey, it seemed that this person didn’t intend to be reasonable.
In fact, she could ignore Situ Yuanxiao’s command because he was not her direct superior. He didn’t have the right to ask her to do anything. However, she wanted to see how he intended to cause trouble for her. Also, she may fight alongside him this man in the future. Hence, she needed to get to know him.
Situ Yuanxiao was already waiting for her on the military drill ground. The group of soldiers who were patrolling and the group of soldiers who were training, casted their gaze over to the two people with unusual identities.
Situ Yuanxiao let someone lay out the bows of one, two and three stones. He let Zhao Zimu choose very arrogantly. Zhao Zimu casted him a glance. Situ Yuanxiao already held a black and golden lined mahogany bow in his hand. This thing looked like a bow specially made for the imperial household and was different from the ordinary goods in front of her. The strength and stability of these were probably several levels worse than his.
Seeing that Zhao Zimu looked at his hand, Situ Yuanxiao explained, “I have already become used to this. So, it is not considered cheating.”
However, his expression was very cheating. Although, she had heard that Situ Yuanxiao already has.children, he was only seventeen. Zhao Zimu decided to not argue with him on this. Moreover, she wouldn’t be able to argue about it. The whole world was theirs, so, what if he played a bit rogue?
She bypassed him and picked up a big yellow bow of one stone. She weighted it in her hand and pulled the bowstring. Then, she said, “Okay, but before competing, this subject has to make a request to Your highness. Otherwise, forget the competition.”
“Humph,” Situ Yuanxiao casted her a sidelong glance. “Speak.” He wanted to hear what her request is. This person is too daring. No wonder he dared to follow Lin Qing and go against them.
“If I win, if I win, can Your Highness stop causing trouble for this subject. This subject has to admit that I have never offended Your Highness.” Whether that was true or not, Zhao Zimu said that very sincerely. She really didn’t want Situ Yuanxiao to bother her with this kind of thing. She is very busy.
Situ Yuanxiao’s face turned blue after hearing that. His eyes were about to breath fire. The person in front of him clearly thinks that he is troublesome. Also, what kind of tone is that? Treating him like a child?! Who dared to speak like this to him in whole Great Liang except for his emperor father?! Situ Yuanxiao felt like a stone was stiffed in his heart. Uncomfortable! This opponent didn’t take him as opponent at all.
Situ Yuanxiao sneered a few times. Then, he looked at the target a few hundred meters away and said, “Then, you have to win against me before you are qualified to say this.”
Zhao Zimu made an ‘mm’ sound and asked him to shoot first. Situ Yuanxiao also didn’t argue. He raised the mahogany bow and did a posture of Chang Hong facing the sun. He tightened and loosened his hand. The arrow slammed into the target a hundred meters away with a sharp whistling of the wind.
Chang Hong was a famous politician, educator and astronomer in ancient china.Hit the center!
The soldiers around the military drill ground applauded and looked at him with respect and admiration. All the soldiers here were under his jurisdiction. Situ Yuanxiao shot well and they naturally couldn’t wait to applaud because this thing would not only bootlick the prince but could also give themselves face.
Zhao Zimu��s gaze flickered. Looking at the proud person in front of her, it seemed that he came well-prepared.
