In an instant, Tianzhang Yuan's entire face turned red. His cheeks were as crimson as clouds.

"Hug, I'm sorry. My old habit happened again..."

Tianzhangyuan hurriedly let go of Qingdeng in his arms, took seven steps back in one breath, and instantly opened the distance between himself and Qingdeng.

Immediately afterwards, Tianzhangyuan seemed to have remembered something, and said to Qingdeng with an annoyed look on his face:

"Ji Jun, haven't I told you already? When my old habits happen again, you have to remind me in time!"

There was no way to argue... Qingdeng, who was completely speechless, turned away in embarrassment and did not dare to look at Tianzhang Courtyard.

"Yes, I'm sorry...because you were too serious and focused, so I couldn't find the time to speak..."

The atmosphere around me has changed.

Silence fell between Qingdeng and Tianzhangyuan.

Tianzhang Court did not make any further accusations against Qingdeng.

She blushed, turned her head sideways like Qingdeng, and cast her gaze on the empty snow not far away.

This scene made Qingdeng couldn't help but think back to more than three months ago...that is, the day he first learned bowing under the guidance of Tianzhang Yuan.

It was then that Qingdeng discovered this problem with Tianzhang Hospital for the first time.

At that time, the atmosphere was as awkward as now...

As Tianzhangyin Shiyi said, this is Tianzhangyuan's old problem.

This Princess of the Satsuma Domain, who was born into a well-known family, may have been influenced by her family tradition. Once she made up her mind to do something seriously, she would be extraordinarily focused, meticulous and uncompromising.

This should be a good thing... but the problem is: Tianzhang Academy often focuses too much.

Be so focused that you forget your surroundings; be so focused that you ignore your current behavior, words, and deeds.

Archery is Tianzhangyuan's favorite martial art - this is what she said personally.

When teaching his favorite martial art to Qingdeng, out of his feelings for archery and his responsibility to Qingdeng, Tianzhangyuan frequently entered a state of "forgetting both things and myself".

And Tianzhangyuan happens to be the kind of "action man" who likes to use his hands more than his words.

Rather than preaching boring knowledge, Tianzhangyuan preferred to give hands-on demonstrations and teach Qingdeng step by step how to draw the bow and how to aim.

Ever since - the scene just now was born.

Tianzhangyuan was immersed in teaching work and could not extricate himself. In order to help Qingdeng understand the techniques of using the bow more quickly, his hands and feet moved unconsciously, and his delicate body was pressed against Qingdeng's body unconsciously.

As early as the first time this embarrassing situation happened, Tianzhang Yuan told Qingdeng: Next time you see me doing such a rude thing, remember to remind me in time.

At the same time, Tianzhang Yuan also repeatedly assured Qingdeng that she would pay more attention in the future and never let similar situations happen again.

As a result, Tianzhang Yuan guarantees solitude.

In almost every archery practice, Tianzhangyuan would have uncontrollable and overly close physical contact with Qingdeng many times.

After more than three months of "bow skills classes", Qingdeng not only learned how to use a bow, but also memorized the body temperature and scent of Tianzhang Yuan.

To this day, when Qingdeng sees the bow, he immediately thinks of Tianzhangyuan's pretty face, the "personal guidance" Tianzhangyuan gave him, and the unsettling temperature and smell - Qingdeng's imagination can be in this world.

Such a leap in level is all thanks to the old problem of Tianzhang Academy.

At this moment, Tianzhangyuan showed the mature side of a 24-year-old adult woman.

"Ahem..."

She coughed twice.

These two light coughs broke the silence.

As the calm atmosphere was broken, the embarrassment between the two people suddenly dissipated a lot.

"Okay, let's continue practicing archery."

Tianzhangyuan put on a straight face and looked solemn, pretending that nothing happened.

Qingdeng also borrowed the donkey down the slope and took several deep breaths.

The talent "Emperor's Art" is activated.

He quickly collected his emotions and expressions on his face, and tacitly decided with Tianzhang Academy not to mention the small accident that had just happened, which had happened countless times...

——I really like archery because it helps my physical and mental health...

The self-suggestive soliloquy echoed deep in Qingdeng's heart again...

…

…

After that, the archery class continued normally.

After several reminders from Tianzhang Academy, Qingdeng finally figured out the secret of the "long-distance shooting method", and his hit rate increased sharply, from the original "zero hit in five shots" to "three hits out of ten" in one breath.

.

Qingdeng's ability to draw inferences from one instance and learn from others after hearing it naturally made it unnecessary for Tianzhang Academy to "personally guide" Qingdeng.

Although he consciously ignored it, Qingden did feel a bit regretful and lonely...

No more accidents happened - more than an hour passed like this -

"Okay, Ju-kun, let's finish today's practice here. Come, drink some tea and eat some snacks."

Tianzhangyuan sat on his knees in a pavilion dedicated to resting next to the archery range. He had two teacups and a plate of mochi that he got from nowhere.

“Is only black tea okay?”

"Ah, yes. I have no taboos on tea."

After pulling the bow for more than an hour, Qingdeng's body and mind were already a little tired.

He happened to be a little hungry, so Qingdeng was not polite, put the bow in his hand back on the bow stand, and sat down next to Tianzhangyuan.

"Ji Jun, you are indeed an incredible martial arts wizard."

"Um?"

Qingdeng, who was drinking black tea, raised his confused gaze towards Tianzhang Courtyard.

Why did you suddenly say this? Qingdeng asked with his eyes.

"I thought you only had extraordinary talent in swordsmanship, but I didn't expect that you also have such amazing talents in archery."

Tianzhangyuan had a look of emotion on his face.

"In less than 4 months, I have reached a state that I have been practicing for 4 years. If this continues, it won't be long before I have nothing left to teach you."

Faced with the sudden compliment from Tianzhang Yuan, Qingdeng smiled politely and said a few words of modesty.

"Ah, by the way..."

Qingdeng's face was stunned. After hesitating for a while, he asked Tianzhang Court:

"Speaking of this... His Highness Tianzhangyuan, I have a question that I have wanted to ask you for a long time."

Qingdeng asked with his eyes: Can I ask?

"Um?"

Tianzhangyuan replied with an expression: Just ask.

Why do you want to teach me archery yourself? With your ability, you should be able to find many people to do it for you, right?"

"Ah, well...actually the reason is very simple."

Tianzhangyuan put down the tea cup in his hand, turned his upper body, and faced Qingden, his smiling face filled with warm colors.

"Because I like you! I want to be alone with you as much as possible!"

The evil river crab caused Leopard Leopard to write today's chapter, so he had to hold it back! I dare not write more about how Qingdeng and Tianzhangyuan posted it, it was so sad! (Leopard is sad.jpg)

The preparations that need to be made are almost done, and it is almost time to enter the main plot of the second volume (yes, the second volume has written almost 1 million words, but it turns out that until now, it has not entered the main theme of "The Power to the Sky". The previous

All the plots, whether it is a fireworks display or fighting bandits, are just foreshadowing for the main plot that will follow.)
Chapter completed!
