The Boss Your Majesty Is Looking For Has Always Been Me. Chapter 20

blatant favoritism

After discussing it, the two decided to compete in archery.

Qin Zhi glanced around and saw a heavy bow on the weapon rack. He walked over and said, “Shall we use this bow to compare?”

Dai Chengan’s eyes flashed with light, “No, I will entertain you with the best.”

He summoned a forbidden soldier to whisper, and soon the forbidden soldier and others carried a bow.

The bow was completely black, much like the legendary “God’s Arm Bow” with a range of nearly one mile.

Dai Cheng comforted the bowstring, as if he wanted to touch every strand.After a while, he still had more to say, “Why don’t you invite General Yuen Long first?”

“Then I’ll accept it.” Qin Zhi didn’t refuse and grabbed the bow with his right hand and lifted it up.

At the same time, both of the two people lifting the bow showed expressions of astonishment – the bow they had just barely lifted was actually picked up by Qin Zhi with one hand, so easily!!!

There was also a look of surprise on Dai Chengan’s face, but it quickly disappeared and was replaced by unnoticeable anticipation.

He stood with his hands behind his back, his chin slightly raised, waiting for the legendary general to take action, as if he had a good idea of ​​what was going to happen.

really!

As soon as Qin Zhi pulled the bow string, his brows furrowed slightly. He couldn’t pull it back, and the string broke!

If Qin Zhi hadn’t reacted quickly and thrown the bow away, the string would have broken his jaw into two pieces!

The Imperial Guards were in an uproar and laughed.

Qin Zhi’s men were filled with righteous indignation, claiming that Dai Cheng’an deliberately wanted to depose a general who was personally appointed by His Majesty, which was a treasonous act.

What a vicious mind.

Qin Zhi raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Dai Chengan calmly.

There must be another way to make such a fuss.

As expected, the bright yellow robe moves from far to near.

His Majesty, who almost punished Qin Zhi again an hour ago, came in front of a group of people with a look of imminent rain, and said in an angry tone, “The training of the Forbidden Army should be the most serious matter. What crime do you deserve for making noise here?”

“Your Majesty!” Dai Cheng’an knelt down and said first: “General Yuen Long refused to submit to me, so he, as his deputy, proposed an arrow competition. I thought I couldn’t hurt my harmony, so I agreed, but the general didn’t know if he wanted to give me a show of strength. He actually destroyed the ‘God’s Arm Bow’ given by your majesty with one move. This is very disrespectful. Your majesty, please make the decision for me!”

Royal gift…

The corner of Qin Zhi’s mouth twitched, and before King Jiang could question him, he knelt down and straightened his back.

He was not in a hurry to defend himself. At the moment when the bow string broke, a feminine but overbearing secret force came along the string. It was by no means a natural break, but was shattered by pure internal force.The only one who could do this and had a motive was Dai Chengan.

King Jiang’s eyes first fell on the broken divine arm bow, and a trace of displeasure flashed through his eyes. Then he turned to Qin Zhi, his voice was reproachful, but there was no real anger: “Qin Zhi, is what Dai Qing said the truth?”

There was silence all around, and all eyes were focused on Qin Zhi.

If the crime of disrespect is severely punished, it can be punished by death.

Dai Chengan knelt aside, his mouth slightly curved, determined that Qin Zhi could not prove that he had done anything.

Using internal force to break the bow string, leaving no trace, it would be impossible to detect it unless the martial arts knowledge was much higher than his.

Qin Zhi raised his head, looked calm, and faced King Jiang with clear eyes: “Returning to your majesty, the first half of what Commander Dai said is true. I did propose to compete with him, and the bow string was broken. However, I definitely did not intentionally damage the gift given by the emperor.”

He paused and spoke in a calm but firm tone, “As for why the bow string was broken, I dare not speculate. I only know that I serve Your Majesty wholeheartedly and act with a clear conscience. The destruction of this bow was neither what I wanted nor could I control. Your Majesty is wise and has made his own decision.”

He did not accuse Dai Chengan of using internal force to break the bow string, nor even mentioned any speculation about “tampering”.

He just stated the facts, expressed his feelings, and completely handed over the power of judgment to King Jiang.

King Jiang’s eyes moved slightly and he took a deep look at Qin Zhi.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t see Dai Cheng’an’s desire to be competitive and exclude newcomers, nor was he completely convinced that the bowstring broke naturally.But Qin Zhi’s attitude at this moment made him quite satisfied.

Don’t argue, don’t make false accusations, be calm and magnanimous, and leave the final decision-making power in your own hands. This is the wisdom of a courtier.

In his heart, this is what a “famous person” in Xuanhui Valley should be like.

What a pity…

“Your Majesty!” Seeing that Qin Zhi did not directly testify against him, Dai Chengan felt a little calmer, but he still rushed to say: “General Yuen Long’s words are clearly words of evasion! The bowstring of the divine arm is tough, if it is not a huge force and recklessness, how can it break easily? This is a great disrespect for the gift given by His Majesty!”

King Jiang’s eyes swept between the two people. Dai Chengan’s eagerness was in sharp contrast with Qin Zhi’s calmness, and the balance in his heart was already tilted.

“That’s enough.” King Jiang’s voice was low, but with unquestionable majesty. “The bow has been destroyed, and it is useless to argue about the reason. Dai Qing, I gave you the God’s Arm Bow in the hope that you can make good use of it, not as a tool for competition.”

Dai Chengan felt a shiver in his heart, knowing that King Jiang had seen the clues. Although he was unwilling to do so, he had no choice but to kowtow: “I know you are guilty!”

King Jiang stopped looking at him and turned to Qin Zhi, his tone obviously softened a lot: “Qin Qing.”

“I’m here.”

“This incident happened when you first joined the Forbidden Army,” King Jiang paused for a moment, observing Qin Zhi’s expression, and seeing that he was still calm, he continued, “However, you are not impatient when encountering difficulties, and you are restrained in expressing your feelings. You are so lonely. It is wrong to destroy the things given by the emperor. I didn’t mean to miss you, and Dai Qing also did something inappropriate, so I will let this matter go.”

Leave it at that!

With just four words, a storm that might have resulted in heavy punishment was eliminated.Many people in the Forbidden Army looked surprised and looked at Qin Zhi with a more thoughtful look.

Your Majesty’s partiality is too obvious.

Dai Chengan’s hands lying on the ground were clenched into fists, his nails almost digging into his flesh. He was filled with resentment, but he didn’t dare to show it at all.

Qin Zhi knew in his heart that the emperor was deliberately tolerating him.

He couldn’t help but look up at King Jiang, and his eyes met with King Jiang’s.

The king’s eyes were like water, which had the power to reassure him, which was completely different from the previous indifference of punishing him for Li Ci.

Qin Zhi intuitively felt that this was abnormal, but subconsciously indulged in this warmth.

In his heart, King Jiang already had skin-to-skin contact with him, so how could he lie to him.

He doesn’t need the truth to be revealed to the world, he just needs the emperor to believe in him, even if this trust may be mixed with things that he can’t understand for the time being.

He kowtowed deeply, his voice filled with just the right amount of admiration: “My lord, thank you for your kindness! Your Majesty is very understanding and considerate of me. I am deeply grateful. I will do my best to rectify the imperial army in order to repay your majesty’s trust!”

He was not proud and did not look at the defeated Dai Chengan, but just expressed his loyalty again.This indifference made King Jiang’s eyes flash with admiration.

“Get up.” Jiang Wangxu gave him a hand, “The imperial army is the barrier of the palace. I hope you and Dai Qing will work together in the future and don’t let any quarrels arise over trivial matters again.”

These words seemed to be addressed to the two of them, but his eyes mainly stayed on Dai Chengan for a moment, with a warning.

Dai Chengan had no choice but to grit his teeth and respond: “I… obey the order.”

Qin Zhi stood up and calmly adjusted his robes.

He knew that after this incident, he was established in the Forbidden Army, but at the same time, he had to continue to be careful about Dai Chengan to prevent him from causing further trouble. After all, his gift required the good cooperation of the Forbidden Army.

After King Jiang finished handling the matter, he didn’t stay any longer and drove away.The atmosphere on the school grounds did not relax.

Dai Chengan stood up with a livid face, glared at Qin Zhi fiercely, and walked away without even bothering to clean up the broken bow.

Qin Zhi ignored the eyes full of resentment. His eyes swept across the Forbidden Army soldiers with different expressions present, and his heart was clear.

He does not need to expose his opponent’s tricks to win, he only needs to use his strengths. The day when the strength of the Forbidden Army greatly increases is when he will truly win against Dai Chengan.

He took a deep breath and spoke loudly, with a steady and powerful voice that spread clearly throughout the school: “Before sunset today, everyone needs to register their best skills at Wu Yue’s office. Three days later, everyone will change the training content. Although I am new here, everyone also wants to know the reason why His Majesty trusts me. Listen to me, and I guarantee that each of you will be quite satisfied with this reason!”

The buzzing discussion sounded again, and this time, Qin Zhi did not interrupt them.

Arousing the interest of the Forbidden Army is only the first step. Next, he will use his strength to make all the Forbidden Army sincerely convinced of him!
