Chapter 272 She knew she had fallen into a trap
Soon it will be hunting day in Nanshan.
What made Yu Jiuer happy was that all the women in their "Women's Poetry Club" participated in this event.
With them around, Yu Jiuer knew she would never be bored.
While the men were still busy directing the servants to set up the tent, the members of the "Women's Poetry Club" could not wait to pull Yu Jiuer over to chat.
As they were chatting animatedly, Xie Shier noticed that Song Wanqing was standing in the distance staring at them blankly.
Xie Shier asked Yu Jiuer: "She has restrained all her sharpness now, and looks quite pitiful. Would you mind if I ask her to come over?"
Yu Jiuer shook her head. Even though she felt very uncomfortable, she could only pretend that she didn't mind.
Women in ancient times had deep-rooted ideas about female virtues and taboos. If she minded, she would be violating one of the seven reasons for divorce. If she did, she would be caught by the pigtails and reported to the emperor. Ruining her reputation would be a small matter, but delaying her imperial examination would be a big deal!
Besides, she couldn't let her sisters in the "Women's Poetry Club" think that she was jealous and intolerant, right?
Her glorious image was penetrating into the hearts of these women, and she didn't want to destroy her good image in their minds.
Therefore, even though Song Wanqing had been at odds with her in the past and often followed Rong Wan'er to annoy her, Yu Jiuer could only temporarily put aside her personal grudges and put on a forced smile to welcome her over to chat.
However, Song Wanqing was very self-aware. When Xie Shier waved at her, she bit her lip, shook her head and ran away.
"She was clearly watching us chatting with envy, but she didn't dare to come over and mingle with us like she used to." Xie Shier said a little sadly.
"She used to be the most talented woman in our poetry club, full of vigor and energy.
Unexpectedly, after her father fell from power, she became like a different person, timid and cowardly. She didn't even dare to come over and say hello to us, even though we were sisters.
How sad! "
Yu Jiuer remained silent. It was not in her position to express her opinion!
As long as Song Wanqing doesn't bother her, she won't take the initiative to provoke her, and she is even too lazy to say a word of judgment about her.
After all the tents were settled, the queen offered a prize: "You all go to the mountains! Just like in previous years, whoever hunts the most prey within three incense sticks will win! Look carefully at the signs, don't go to places where it is forbidden to cross the border, so as to avoid danger!"
The prey released into the mountains are specially selected for women, and they are not ferocious. What's more, each woman has a selected man to protect her, so nothing will go wrong.
Therefore, the emperor and his ministers were very confident in letting these women in the harem come out and stretch their muscles every year.
When the race started, the women rode their horses into the forest.
In order to participate in the Nanshan hunting, it can be said that there is no woman in the capital who does not know how to ride a horse.
Yu Jiuer rode her pony to deal with it symbolically, she didn't care about the prize and just wanted to return home safely and wait for the imperial examination.
But the queen just didn't agree with her, and even brought people to cheer for Yu Jiuer from behind: "Concubine Yu, you are the woman we admire most. You are brilliant in literature, and don't lag behind in martial arts. Keep working hard!"
When she shouted like this, all the women around her clapped their hands crazily for her: "Come on! Concubine Yu, you will surely be able to combine both civil and military skills and kill everyone!"
Yu Jiuer was so frightened that she almost fell off her horse.
Jun Mo followed not far behind her, trying hard to suppress his smile.
Yu Jiuer glared at him. In fact, if she wanted to win, with her archery skills of hitting the target from a hundred paces away, no woman here could beat her.
But she didn't want to reveal too much. After all, "Yu Wushuang" had revealed his archery skills in front of others before. Having too many similarities between the two people would inevitably arouse suspicion, so she had to be careful.
"Haha!" She turned her head and smiled at the group of infatuated women, then rode her horse away from their sight.
Entering the mountains, the young ladies and ladies completely let themselves go, riding their horses happily through the woods.
Yu Jiuer came to a jungle and was just about to hunt one or two rabbits to report back, but out of the corner of her eye she saw Lin Siyu riding her little white horse and wandering in front of her.
But the guards responsible for protecting Lin Siyu were nowhere to be seen.
Yu Jiuer was also surprised to find that Lin Siyu was wearing Yu Tao's sachet.
"Hey, wait a minute, how do you have Yutao's sachet?" Yu Jiuer shouted.
Unexpectedly, Lin Siyu gave her a sinister look, sneered, turned his horse around and ran away.
Yu Jiuer looked behind her and saw Jun Mo approaching her, so she went to chase Lin Siyu without any worries.
But the more I chased after it, the more I felt something was wrong.
The face of the person in front is Lin Siyu's, but his figure doesn't look like Lin Siyu!
And that look and temperament are not Lin Siyu's at all.
No, that person is not Lin Siyu!
Yu Jiuer quickly pulled the reins and planned to wait for Jun Mo to catch up!
She is not like those women who have never seen the world and don’t even know how to disguise themselves!
Just as Yu Jiuer was about to turn her horse around to join Jun Mo, she suddenly heard Yu Tao's scream: "Ah! Wei Zheng!"
Yu Jiuer's heart skipped a beat and she looked in the direction where the scream came from.
But when she got there, she saw "Lin Siyu" carrying Yutao on his back and running forward for his life.
Yu Jiuer no longer cared about anything else and chased after her with the whip.
"Jiuer, that's a restricted area, what are you doing? Don't run over there!" Jun Mo's voice came from afar.
Yu Jiuer only had time to shout: "Yu Tao is in danger, the man in front has captured Yu Tao!"
She didn't know whether Jun Mo heard her or not, she just kept waving the whip nervously.
Not long after, she chased to the edge of the cliff and found that "Lin Siyu" threw the clothes in her hands down the cliff.
Yu Jiuer's heart sank, and she realized that she was worried out of her mind.
That was not Yutao at all, but just a piece of clothing that was the same as the one Yutao was wearing today.
Yu Jiuer was furious and raised her arrow to aim at her: "You are not Lin Siyu, who are you?"
The woman gave a strange smile and raised her eyebrows provocatively at Yu Jiuer.
When she raised her hand to throw a hidden weapon at her, Yu Jiuer shot an arrow. The arrow head accurately passed through the woman's clothes. The woman leaned back and fell off the cliff!
How could she be able to shoot her off the cliff without using any great force?
Just when Yu Jiuer was feeling confused, a figure suddenly flew up from behind her.
It was Rong Wan'er who flew forward to pull "Lin Siyu".
Before Yu Jiuer could come to her senses, Rong Wan'er raised a hidden weapon and was about to shoot at her.
In order to protect herself, Yu Jiuer had to quickly draw the bow and shoot the arrow.
Then, a magical scene happened. Rong Wan'er and "Lin Siyu" fell off the cliff together.
When Jun Mo and the others hurriedly caught up, they only saw this scene: Yu Jiuer pulled the bow in her hand, shot Lin Siyu and Rong Wan'er at the same time, and they fell off the cliff.
Yu Jiuer stared blankly at the bow in her hand. She only used 50% of her strength to pull the bow. This amount of force could hurt someone, but it wouldn't be enough to shoot someone off a cliff, right?
Is Rong Wan'er going to make such a big deal?
He actually ignored his own safety and wanted to drag her into hell?
Yu Jiuer jumped off the horse and ran to the edge of the cliff to look down.
This is a bottomless cliff, and ordinary people would definitely die if they fell. Those who know Qinggong might have a chance to survive, but if they are injured, it is hard to say!
"I didn't use much strength to pull the bow, and I didn't shoot them off the cliff. They jumped down by themselves. Do you believe what I said?" Yu Jiuer turned her head and asked Jun Mo who had caught up with her.
In fact, even she herself doesn’t believe it, how can they believe it?
But how could she shoot them off the cliff with such little strength? She is not Popeye!
Jun Mo looked at her with trust in his eyes, but he couldn't help asking, "We were chasing from behind. We first saw you shoot an arrow and shoot Lin Siyu off the cliff. When Rong Wan'er flew up to pull Lin Siyu, you shot another arrow. I believe you, but they..."
Yu Jiuer looked at the group of people behind Jun Mo, and they shook their heads at the same time:
"Concubine Yu, you are a role model for women. You should be brave enough to take responsibility for your actions!"
"We only believe what we see with our own eyes!"
"The evidence before our eyes is irrefutable. The two concubines of Prince Jing's mansion did fall off the cliff at the same time, and their lives are in danger. And you were the one who shot the arrow. We dare not deceive the king!"
Yu Jiuer's heart sank, she knew she had fallen into a trap.
Under the watchful eyes of the public, can she resolve the crisis and take part in the imperial examination in time?
