464 Scared You to Death (1)

Everyone present held their breaths and focused as the arrow shot at Shen Miao. Some timid women even covered their eyes, not daring to look at this scene. The officials knew very well that no matter how arrogant and vicious the princess of the State of Qin was, she would not shoot the general’s daughter to death in front of so many people.

However, knowing it in their hearts was one thing, but what they saw was another. If even the bystanders felt their hearts racing, how would Shen Miao be feeling at this very moment?

Shen Miao did not even close her eyes. Instead, she stared at the arrow that was flying at her intently, as if she wanted to catch it. In everyone’s eyes, she looked calm and composed.

The arrow whizzed past Shen Miao’s head and missed the apple.

Shen Qiu heaved a sigh of relief. Shen Xin and Luo Xueyan opened their tightly clenched hands slightly. Feng Anning and Luo Tan patted their chests. Luo Ling picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip to hide his worried expression.

The entire hall was silent. Huangfu Hao originally had a smile on his face, but gradually, it was replaced by a frown.

Princess Ming An waited for a while, but she did not hear any cheers for her or mockery for Shen Miao from the hall. She had a bad feeling. She tore off the black cloth that covered her eyes and saw that the apple above Shen Miao’s head was still intact. As for the purple-clothed girl, she did not panic at all. She just looked at her indifferently and said, “Your Highness, I think my hand slipped just now, so the arrow missed the apple.”

Shen Miao said it in a casual tone, but it was filled with obvious mockery.

After being stunned for a moment, Princess Ming An came back to her senses. She looked at Shen Miao and said angrily, “You must have moved just now. You moved! I’ve never missed my mark. If you didn’t move, how could I miss?”

No one expected Princess Ming An to suddenly become unreasonable. Even Emperor Wen Hui looked unhappy and said, “Princess, are you saying that hundreds of people at the banquet are lying to you for Miss Shen?”

Shen Miao stood straight. From the beginning to the end, she did not even flinch. Although no one knew if she was pretending or not, if she wasn’t, her courage was enough to amaze the people in the world. No matter how afraid Emperor Wen Hui was of the Shen family, the Shen family was still Ming Qi’s people. How could he, the emperor of Ming Qi, let a princess of the State of Qin slander Shen Miao in front of him? If he allowed Princess Ming An to fool around today, tomorrow, the prestige of the emperor among the officials would plummet.

Princess Ming An felt aggrieved and looked at Huangfu Hao. When Huangfu Hao looked at her with a dark expression, Princess Ming An shuddered. She did not dare to look at Huangfu Hao anymore and turned to look at Prince Rui, who was standing at the side. She said sweetly, “Prince Rui, did Miss Shen move?” As she said this, Princess Ming An stared at Prince Rui flirtatiously, making everyone present feel awkward.

Prince Rui smiled and said, “No.”

Princess Ming An was stunned. “Prince Rui, are you saying that Shen Miao didn’t move?”

“Are you questioning my eyes?” Prince Rui asked. He looked handsome and charming, but when his voice turned cold, it made people feel a chill and not dare to look at him directly.

Princess Ming An was taken aback. She saw Shen Miao standing opposite her and looking at her with a smile. “Your Highness, do you admit defeat? Or… are you a sore loser?”
