Among the largest hunting grounds in the capital. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

A young man sat upright on horseback and raised his bow and arrow again and again at a little white furry creature that was walking through the greenery and bushes.

It's just that not a single hit was either shot in front of it or fell behind it.

There was no impatient expression on the young man's face, he just continued to shoot arrow after arrow.

Although the arrow did not hit the prey, it led the prey step by step to the clearing.

Finally, with a thud, the prey fell into a trap that had been set.

Seeing this, the black-clothed young man who had been silently watching from the side came over, patted Xue Licheng's shoulder, and laughed: "You have been tossing for many days, but you finally put this little thing into the net." ”

Li Cheng smiled helplessly, but his eyes were very happy. After returning from Zhang's house that day, he wholeheartedly wanted to catch the white fox and give it to Zhaoyuan, but the little thing was very cunning, because Zhaoyuan said that he wanted to raise it, but he couldn't hurt it, so he could only watch it anxious for several days.

Later, Tingning came to help, and let people write down the range of activities of the white fox, and observed it for several days before setting a trap here. Taking advantage of today's good weather, Licheng finally patiently led this little thing into the trap with one arrow at a time.

A few of the men pulled up the net and carefully wrapped the white fox, for fear that it would run away again.

"You take it down and clean it, see if it's hurt, bandage it, and put it in a cage, don't let it escape." Xue Licheng instructed over and over again.

Li Tingning smiled and shook his head: "It's rare to see you so attentive, is this white fox going to give it to which girl?" ”

Li Cheng smiled: "Only Brother Tingning can do this kind of thing to give a beautiful woman, I gave it to my own sister to play with." ”

Li Tingning's face became a little unnatural when he heard this, and he coughed dryly: "Didn't I also give it to your sister." Hurriedly changed the topic: "Have you heard about the things in the court today?" Chen He's charge of embezzlement was confirmed. ”

Licheng's smile faded, he got off the horse, put the bow and arrow aside, and said lightly: "I heard about it, and it was expected." ”

Li Tingning was interested, and followed him: "In this way, you expected that this matter had nothing to do with your uncle, so you didn't take it to heart?" ”

After the incident with the dam, many people who didn't know what was going on were wondering if the Xue family would be unlucky, but Xue Licheng stayed in his house as always, hunting, riding and riding horses, and didn't pay attention to it, which was very surprising.

Although he also knows Uncle Xue's personality very well, as his own son, why should he be a little worried?

Xue Licheng nodded, shook his head again, and said, "It's not all." My father definitely couldn't do such a thing, but if he did, with his cunning character, how could he get through. The saint's trust in him is not a star.

I, ah, have no interest in the government at all, I just want to be a military attache to fight and kill, and the twists and turns in the court make people tired to death. ”

As he spoke, he yawned, lazily lay on the chaise longue on the table, closed his eyes, and behaved like a gentleman.

Li Tingning saw it in his eyes and sighed secretly.

He is indeed very compatible with Licheng's temper, but because of his family background, he must be cautious after all. Many of Licheng's actions are completely unworkable for him.

If this incident is out of their county palace, it will be a personal rebellion, the whole mansion is full of soldiers, and the rumors are loud, after all, his father is a former prince, and the saint still has a lot of mustard for him after all, that is, he has always been an idle prince, once something happens, there will be no mercy.

Unlike Uncle Xue, he taught the saint before he ascended the throne, and when the world was decided, he became the hottest figure in one fell swoop, and the eldest princess Minyuan, the sister-in-law of the saint, was circling on both sides, and the relationship was so close that it almost surpassed the relationship between the monarch and the minister.

Over the years, as the prince's power has grown, the Xue family has also been stumbling because of its ambiguous attitude, but it has not hurt Uncle Xue in the slightest, but it has made his status more important. It's no wonder that Licheng has such confidence in him.

As a brother, he can't be jealous of anything because of this, but his worries about Li Cheng are increasing day by day.

In the Xue family's Guanghua, there is only one son-in-law and a son-in-law of Licheng. The Xue family has been a scholarly family since ancient times, and it is common for a family to be a three-jinshi.

Li Cheng is bent on martial arts, not to mention whether such a behavior will make the saint suspicious, after all, the civil and official forces of the Xue family have already fought against the Song faction, and if there is any more behavior involving martial arts, it will inevitably make people think more. Just talking about the style of the Xue family, it can't tolerate a child who has no merit and fame, and a stubborn person like Uncle Xue will not compromise on this matter.

It's just that Licheng doesn't know anything about reading, and he easily won the fame of Xiucai in last year's children's exam, so that the conflict between father and son is afraid to be more intense.

Another one, born in the Xue family, he will most likely marry a scholarly woman in the future, marriage matters pay attention to the right family, in addition to the Xue family's family, the fame of the children is also an indispensable part.

He sighed, and knew that Licheng couldn't listen for a while, so he didn't say it explicitly, but he thought in his heart: Licheng seems to care about that Zhaoyuan County Lord very much, why don't you mention a few words to her. Shook his head again, I don't know what kind of person it is, if it is a flamboyant and domineering lady, maybe she will turn her head and go to tell the eldest princess, I am afraid that it will be a big deal.

In this matter, let's mention a few words to Sister Zhen first. Thinking of the proud and bright and lovely girl, he couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth. Speaking of which, he doesn't seem to be in line with the conditions of the scholarly family, and I don't know if the Xue family will agree to his proposal.

Xue Licheng squinted, also secretly thinking about his own affairs.

These days, he always stays in the Dejun Mansion and doesn't go out, and he also wants to escape this matter. Before his sister came back, his father told him that he must participate in next year's autumn festival, and asked him to prepare and not lose the face of the Xue family.

Although he was reluctant in his heart, he looked at the masterpieces in his father's study, pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and swallowed back the incompatible thoughts.

In the final analysis, he is just a coward, no matter how straightforward he is, he still doesn't dare to live up to his father's expectations.

He sighed slowly, remembering the Miss Wen family that his mother had vaguely mentioned earlier, and shook his head. In the future, will he get along with such a person day and night and respect each other like guests? There is a feeling that I can't put it into words, in short, it's not good.
