"Presumptuous!" Before the Crown Prince spoke, the burly man who picked the thirty-five-picul bow had taken a step forward and yelled at Yan Liqiang while pointing at him.
"Don't you try to fool anyone in front of the Crown Prince! Do you think you are on an opera stage where you can spout claptraps? Who do you think you are to be calling a forty-picul bow light? Are you trying to be clever so that you can escape from this blindfolded contest? You may have escaped a few years ago, but His Highness is giving you another chance today because he looks up to you. Don't you dare be ungrateful!"
Although there were many experts who practiced archery in the palace, none of the imperial guards could draw a forty-picul bow. Thirty-five piculs was the limit for the best experts in the palace.
