Chapter 59: Betting Her Life (1)

“It’s my turn,” Shen Miao said flatly, but it sounded like thunder to Cai Lin.

Cold sweat rolled down Cai Lin’s face as he looked at Shen Miao in a daze.

Shen Miao took a few steps forward and bent down to pick up the longbow on the ground. Everyone present was watching her every move.

This was really unexpected. They thought they would see Shen Miao faint from fright, but she was fine. Instead, Cai Lin was sweating profusely and missed the target.

After a short silence, the people below the stage started to discuss.

“Like her father, Miss Shen is so brave!” The person who spoke was usually on good terms with Shen Xin. At first, when he heard that Shen Miao was stupid, he was a little increduous. Now that he saw her today, he thought that those words were just rumors. With such courage and bravery, how could she be an idiot? It was obvious that someone deliberately spread false rumors about her.

“She’s indeed not bad. She didn’t even blink just now when that arrow was next to her face. That girl is really like a general. If it were me, I would probably flinch.”

“Don’t you know who she is? How can General Shen’s daughter be bad? It seems like there are a lot of false rumors about her. Sigh, no wonder people wanted to slander her. They are just jealous of her being so outstanding at such a young age.”

Most of the people in the imperial court had a good relationship with Shen Xin. After all, they were connected by many interests. Moreover, they worked in the imperial court all day long and were not as gossipy as the women in the house. In the past, Shen Miao was young, but now that she was older, she would naturally reveal who she really was.

Prince Zhou and Prince Jing looked at each other. Prince Jing shook his head and sighed. “It seems that we were both wrong. She’s really a bold person.”

“Ninth Brother, are you regretting it now?” Prince Zhou smiled and looked at Fu Xiuyi. “Why did you reject such an extraordinary woman?”

“Such a change won’t happen overnight. Either Fifth Miss Shen met a master or she deliberately pretended to be stupid. No matter what, Ninth Sister, you’ve suffered a great loss,” Prince Jing said.

Fu Xiuyi smiled and said, “She is impressive, but it’s a pity that she’s not the person I like.” Fu Xiuyi did not regret rejecting Shen Miao. He was even irritated by the calmness Shen Miao exhibited. He did not believe that people could change overnight either. Could it be that she had really been pretending to be stupid in the past? Why would she do that? Just to make him dislike her?

Pei Lang put down the teacup in his hand. For some reason, he was worried about Shen Miao just now. However, to his surprise, she didn’t flinch. Not only did she not flinch, but she also frightened Cai Lin so much that he couldn’t even shoot properly.

Was Shen Miao actually so powerful?

“She’s indeed a wonderful girl.” Prince Yu smiled in satisfaction and stared at Shen Miao’s figure. “I wonder… what does it feels like?”

Pei Lang frowned. Prince Yu was probably thinking about something nasty again. Unfortunately, he couldn’t do anything.

In the pavilion, Xie Jingxing sat by the window and said calmly, “You lost.”

“I can’t believe it!” Su Mingfeng’s eyes were about to pop out. He looked at Xie Jingxing and then at the stage in the distance, asking, “Did you already know it?”

Xie Jingxing stood up and patted the dust off his body.
