Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 503

Chapter 503 Already Married

Rong Jin first glanced at the wooden stake not far away and then said softly, “In that case, I’ll wait for Miss Tie’s good news.”

Tie Qinglan did not expect Rong Jin to say this. She felt as if she was also interested in her. There was an unconcealable smile between her eyebrows. She said loudly, “Alright, I will definitely be able to shoot the wooden stake.”

“Wait for good news!” Rong Jin’s expression was still faint, but his gaze swept towards the wooden stake not far away. He saw two small holes beside the wooden stake with a pair of calm eyes. His heart trembled slightly. Could it really be Xiao Xiao?

Tie Qinglan bowed respectfully in Rong Jin’s direction and then turned around to leave. However, her expression was filled with overwhelming joy.

Compared to Tie Qinglan’s joy, An Hua and Mu Xuan’s expressions were no longer gloomy. Their gazes were filled with hatred and killing intent as they looked at Tie Qinglan. Rong Jin refuted their face and actually gave an unknown daughter-in-law of the General Clan, let alone this daughter-in-law’s reputation.

An Hua held her hands tightly. She had originally thought that Rong Jin would reject her words. After all, she had rejected Mu Minzhi for Yun Xiao, but she did not expect that she would not reject her. Instead, she gave Tie Qinglan face as if she was going against her.

After taking a few breaths, An Hua’s mind finally calmed down a little. He whispered, “I didn’t expect the Swallow King to be willing to marry after being alone for so many years. It’s really a good thing.”

Rong Jin looked at An Hua indifferently with a gentle smile on his face. However, the depths of his eyes were cold. He said softly, “Mother is wrong. I have already married.”

“What?”

“What?”

Different people asked this question in surprise. No one expected that Rong Jin had clearly agreed to Tie Qinglan. If she shot the wooden stake, she would let the Great Empress Dowager get engaged to the two of them. Why did the Swallow King retort after just saying a few words?

What’s going on?

Tie Qinglan and An Hua were both shocked. The two of them looked at Rong Jin in unison. There was a trace of disbelief in their gazes, but An Hua’s eyes were clearly filled with a trace of anger.

Tie Qinglan quickly walked back and didn’t bother to bow, so she directly asked Rong Jin, “Prince Yan, did you get a wife?”

Rong Jin looked at each other calmly, as if he had thought of something. A trace of tenderness flashed through his eyes, and his gaze was gentle, “Yes.”

“But why hasn’t anyone heard of this?” Tie Qinglan frowned. Looking at the tenderness in Rong Jin’s eyes, her expression became somewhat unnatural. Just looking at Rong Jin’s expression, she could tell that Rong Jin must have felt very good towards that so-called wife.

“Xiaoxiao doesn’t like to be watched by others, nor does she like to deal with outsiders.” Rong Jin’s tone was still filled with unconcealable tenderness, but when he looked at the wooden stake not far away, he felt a trace of worry.

He never showed himself in front of others because he didn’t like to deal with outsiders? As the imperial concubine of the Swallow King, dealing with outsiders was inevitable.

However, Rong Jin’s tone was filled with tenderness. He was telling everyone that he doted on his princess, so he didn’t want others to think about it.

At this moment, Tie Qinglan actually envied the Xiaoxiao that Rong Jin had mentioned. To be able to get someone as wholeheartedly treated as the Swallow King, she must be very happy. Moreover, from Rong Jin’s words just now, Rong Jin did not have any intention of accepting Concubine Xian. This kind of relationship was something that she had dreamed of all her life.

Seeing more men with three wives and four concubines, she originally thought that such feelings would never appear in real life. Even if they did, they would only appear in some fictional notebooks.

However, he didn’t expect that just as Tie Qinglan was in despair, a ray of light would appear in front of him again. “Since that’s the case, why did you still agree to let me shoot the wooden stake and ask the Great Empress Dowager to betroth us?”

Rong Jin smiled faintly, “Because you can’t shoot a wooden stake.”

This was an answer that no one had expected. In the hearts of everyone, Tie Qinglan’s archery was the best amongst the girls from the various aristocratic families. If Tie Qinglan couldn’t shoot, no one else would.

However, Rong Jin directly explained that Tie Qinglan couldn’t hit them. Wasn’t this slapping everyone’s face?

Tie Qinglan stared at Rong Jin’s distant and indifferent eyes. Everything she saw in Rong Jin’s eyes was serious, meaning that Rong Jin was not lying.

However, she trusted her archery skills. She could definitely shoot at such a short distance, but why did Rong Jin say that she couldn’t?

A bit of unwillingness arose in her heart. At this moment, Tie Qinglan had even forgotten what she had said before. She shot the wooden stake and Rong Jin married her. Now, only unwillingness remained in her heart. How could Rong Jin see her so clearly?

She wanted to shoot the wooden stake for them to see. She could definitely shoot the wooden stake!

He raised his chin proudly and said loudly, “No, I can definitely shoot the wooden stake!”

“Then wait for Miss Tie’s good news.” Rong Jin’s expression was still faint, as if he didn’t care about anything.

Being so unconvinced, Tie Qinglan even wanted to show a song in front of Rong Jin, telling him not to underestimate the woman. She directly swept a glance at Rong Jin, turned around, and walked towards the open space in front of her. She stopped at the designated place, and asked the maidservant to send a bow and arrow.

This arrow was not her usual bow and arrow. Tie Qinglan held it in her hand and felt its weight. After familiarizing herself with the bow and arrow, she conveniently placed the arrow on the bow and pulled the string for a full moon. Her eyes were sharp as she looked at the wooden stake opposite her.

However, at this moment, Tie Qinglan also felt that something was wrong with the wooden stakes over there. As for what was wrong, she did not see it.

The bow was on the string, and he had no choice but to send it out. Thinking back to Rong Jin’s contempt for him, Tie Qinglan mercilessly aimed at the wooden stake and released her hand, allowing the long arrow to fly towards the wooden stake in front of her with an overwhelming force!

A faint look of anxiety flashed through his eyes as he stared at the arrow. He saw that the arrow was getting faster and faster from the wooden stake, and he heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.

However, right at this moment, the corner of Tie Qinglan’s eyes suddenly flashed as she flew towards the wooden stake.

Seeing that the long arrow was about to hit the wooden stake, for some reason, it actually deviated by half a minute. It flew over the side of the wooden stake tightly, and then it was nailed to the ground tightly.

Tie Qinglan stared blankly at the scene in front of her. She blinked her eyes and looked at the sword that she shot out in disbelief. There was a trace of doubt and astonishment in her eyes.

The arrow could actually turn?

At this moment, everyone who looked at the opposite side sucked in a breath of cold air. Originally, the long arrow that Tie Qinglan shot was about to hit the wooden stake, but they didn’t expect that the long arrow would deviate and miss the wooden stake.

This matter was very strange!

An Hua narrowed her eyes slightly. She looked at Rong Jin, who had been sitting in his seat, drinking tea with a cup of tea. A strange look flashed in her eyes. She stared at Rong Jin for a while, but did not see anything strange about Rong Jin. She couldn’t help but wonder in her heart. Wasn’t Rong Jin really the one who did this?

Apart from sucking in a breath of cold air, Tie Qinglan exclaimed, “How could this be?”

She felt as if her eyes were hallucinating. Otherwise, why would the arrow deflect for no reason?

Tie Qinglan glanced at the scenery around her. Then, she tightly clenched her hands together with an embarrassed expression. When she thought of what Rong Jin had said before, that she couldn’t hit the wooden stake, her expression became somewhat embarrassed. Could it be that she really wanted Rong Jin and everyone else to see her joke?

No!

Tie Qinglan gritted her teeth and said directly, “Bring me the arrow, I still want to continue shooting! I don’t believe it, every time, it’s so evil!”

As soon as she finished speaking, a maidservant handed the arrow to Tie Qinglan. Tie Qinglan swiftly drew her bow and shot out. Seeing that the arrow was about to hit the wooden stake, a strange scene happened again. The arrow flew towards the side of the wooden stake like the previous arrow and nailed it straight to the ground.

This fact was too strange!

Taking a deep breath, Tie Qinglan did not believe this evil!

She asked the maidservant to hand over the arrow to her again. However, this time, Tie Qinglan had actually set up two arrows. She didn’t believe that she still couldn’t hit the arrow!

When everyone at the banquet saw Tie Qinglan’s action, their gazes towards Tie Qinglan were filled with peculiarities.

Someone even exclaimed in a low voice, “What exactly happened to this Tie Clan girl? That arrow seems to have eyes. Why can’t it hit a wooden stake!”

“That’s right, but I heard that Miss Tie’s archery skills are pretty good. If we shoot two arrows together this time, we should be able to hit them. Let’s have a good look.”

“That’s right, let’s see how the Tie Clan’s girls display their heroic charm!”

At this moment, everyone had forgotten about Tie Qinglan’s actions of not loving Hong Zhuang and loving arms. They only wanted to see if Tie Qinglan could hit the wooden stake.

Under everyone’s expectant gaze, Tie Qinglan finally let go of her hand. The two arrows shot towards the wooden stakes not far away like bamboo. The sharp aura seemed to be completely unstoppable by anything.

At the banquet, someone had already stood up because they were too eager to know the result. They nervously looked at the wooden stakes not far away and the arrows that were close to the wooden stakes.

Seeing the distance between the arrow and the wooden stake slowly drawing in, not only was Tie Qinglan nervous, but the people at the banquet were also nervous, wanting to see what the result was!

Seeing that the arrow was only a foot away from the wooden stake, Tie Qinglan’s nervous palms were sweating. She prayed in her heart, “You must hit the wooden stake, you must hit the wooden stake!”

However, when she saw the next scene, Tie Qinglan’s eyes widened in shock again. A trace of disbelief flashed through her eyes! His mouth opened, but he was unable to utter a single word!
