C10

Every three years, there would be a jousting competition in the capital, which both men and women could participate in. The condition was that the people of the capital had to be present.

However, there were very few women who were good at riding and shooting in Wei Country, and the children of ordinary families did not have the qualifications to learn how to ride and shoot.

Su Jiu Si asked Su Liangyin. He knew that the Riding Arrows competition was coming up in a few days, so he thought of something.

The reason why she wanted to participate was very simple. If she could get the top spot, not only would the emperor personally see her, she would even receive a reward of a thousand taels of gold.

Not only could it improve the life of the Su Clan, it could also do a lot of things. For example, when Li Rong discovered that she had appeared, he might even come and find trouble with her. At that time, she could use silver to settle this matter.

Most importantly, she had to establish herself in the capital. Only by doing so could she do what she wanted.

In this life, she would not be inferior to Su Liu, and she would not commit the mistakes that Su Liu once committed.

After recovering from his illness, Su Jiu Si personally went to the yamen to register for the Riding Arrows Competition. When the yamen runner saw that the person who came was a little girl, he couldn't help but take a second glance at Su Jiu Si.

This girl had delicate features and looked to be around seventeen or eighteen years old. She wore a set of coarse clothes without any makeup on her face. It was obvious that she was a girl from a common family. She must have walked into the wrong place.

Thinking of this, the bailiff waved his hand towards Su Jiusi, "Miss, there are no maidservants here. Let's go, let's go."

"I'm here for the Great Riding Shooting Competition."

Su Jiusi's tone was firm.

At first, the bailiff was stunned before he burst out laughing, as if he had just heard a joke, "Aiyo, young lady, did you not wake up from your sleep? Have you ever touched a bow? Have you ever ridden a horse? If you knew how to ride, even a blind person would be able to do it. "

Su Jiu Si ignored the scornful laughter of the bailiffs. Her eyes were black and bright, but they were bottomless. She pointed at the black words on the cloth slip at the side. "Why can't I participate? It is clearly stated that any male or female may sign up for the Great Riding Arrows Competition. "

"Miss, you have to know your limits."

The bailiff stopped smiling. He also had time to relax and immediately got up to watch the show. He picked up a bow and arrow and walked in front of Su Jiusi. "How about this, if you can hit the piece of cloth behind me, then I'll have you sign up."

That piece of cloth was extremely large, and it was not far from Su Jiusi. The bailiff concluded that Su Jiusi did not know how to ride a horse and wanted to see her make a fool of herself. He had even thought of what to say after that.

Su Jiusi didn't say anything more. He took the bow and arrows from the bailiff's hands, pulled it back, and shot all at once. The arrow in his hand nailed itself onto the cloth with a swoosh, right in the middle.

In the past, her level of shooting ability was among the best in the capital. In the entire capital, there were only one or two men who could surpass her, and even the emperor praised her.

The bailiff's eyes widened in disbelief. He couldn't believe that the girl in front of him really knew how to ride and shoot. Not only that, but she was so efficient at it. She was clearly an expert in this field.

"Can I register now?"

"Yes, yes." Only after some time did the bailiff react. "What's your name, miss?"

"Su Ming's daughter, Su Jiusi."

After saying this sentence, Su Jiu Si had already left the magistrate court.

The bailiff obviously knew who Su Ming was, as expected of someone from the Anping Marquis Mansion. Even though he had been chased out of the Anping Marquis Mansion for many years, he still had the bearing of a young lady.

He reached out to pull out the long arrow on the wall. After some effort, he managed to pull it out. It seemed that this year's Great Riding Competition was going to be interesting. Unfortunately, he could not watch it.
