The horse's hooves came in a hurry, and gradually slowed down. Zhou Changle rode in front of Zhou Chengwen, and the corners of his skirt flew in the wind, adding a bit of heroism to her. Jiang Ling glanced at her secretly, and couldn't help but be a little envious of such a woman.

"Brother Chengzhi, why are you here? Don't you go hunting? It's too late, but it's lagging behind. Zhou Changle sighed, stopped his horse, and knew to Zhou Cheng, who was sitting on the ground.

Zhou Chengzhi pulled a piece of grass and chewed it in his mouth, looking lazy, he raised his eyes to look at her, and said with a smile: "You don't know, if I come out on top, I'm afraid that my father will not be happy, so I just came here to rest." ”

Zhou Chengwen smiled on the horse: "Do you know that my father is unhappy, what are you doing here?" Are you Iron Eagle Army so idle? After that, without waiting for Zhou Chengzhi to answer, he raised his voice and said to Jiang Ling, who was a few feet away, "Cousin, why don't you come here with everyone to do here?" ”

Jiang Ling pretended to complain: "This horse is disobedient, and somehow came here." ”

Zhou Chengwen thought for a while and said, "Then you come to my horse, and we will ride a horse together." ”

Zhou Chengzhi's face changed slightly, and Zhou Changle already said with a broken face: "Brother Prince, today is a hunting competition, how can you ride a horse with someone?" ”

Zhou Chengzhi also echoed: "The second brother is the crown prince, if he is robbed of the limelight by other princes or princes today, it won't be good-looking!" ”

Hearing them like this, Zhou Chengwen inevitably hesitated, he has always been used to being competitive, especially in front of the emperor, and he doesn't want to be robbed of the limelight.

Seeing him hesitate, Jiang Ling smiled and said, "Cousin, just go hunting, don't worry about me." Anyway, I don't know how to use bows and arrows, it's not a big deal. ”

Zhou Chengwen condescendingly glanced at Zhou Chengzhi on the ground, he was actually suspicious of the words of the two, how could there be such a coincidence, and they all stopped in the same place. He smiled and said: "Third brother, we haven't been talking for a long time, you are lazy here, people who don't know still think that you deliberately let me, why don't we compete and let Changle and Ling'er be witnesses." ”

Zhou Changle suddenly became interested: "Okay, Brother Prince, you and Brother Chengzhi will compete to see who hunts more." ”

Zhou Chengzhi looked uninterested: "The second brother is wise and martial, I don't think I can compare." ”

Zhou Chengwen chuckled: "It's strange, when you were a child, you were competitive and unmatched, why do you often look like you have no quarrel with the world over the years, could it be that you have changed sex?" ”

Zhou Chengzhi took out the grass in his mouth and looked at him lightly: "As I get older, I understand that being competitive is actually useless. ”

Jiang Ling heard the two of them say this, and was even more sure that Zhou Chengzhi knew that this guy was the same as her, eight times out of ten, and nine times out of ten, he would live another life.

Zhou Chengwen smiled even more contemptuously, and said to Jiang Ling again: "Cousin, do you want to watch me compete with my third brother?" ”

Jiang Ling glanced at Zhou Chengzhi, and saw that he looked lazy and disappreciative, and just didn't know whether to say whether to think or not, the others had already stood up, patted the grass residue on his body, and said, "It's just hunting, since the second brother is interested, there is no reason for the third brother not to accompany him." As he spoke, he added, "But since we want Changle and Ling'er to witness, don't ride too fast, lest your daughter's family struggle too much." ”

Zhou Changle immediately answered: "Brother Chengzhi, are you looking down on Changle?" As fast as you run, I'll follow! ”

Zhou Chengwen glanced at her: "You are fine, but my cousin is a girl from Jiangnan, where can she keep up with us?" ”

Zhou Changle snorted indignantly and glared at Jiang Ling dissatisfied.

The three of them had already made a decision, and Jiang Ling couldn't shirk it. Slowly, he led the unfamiliar horse and stepped over to it.

Zhou Chengzhi also got on horseback and asked, "Where is the second brother going?" ”

Zhou Chengwen thought for a while and said: "Now most people are in the east, let's go to the west, so as not to be disturbed." ”

Zhou Chengzhi frowned: "There are not many prey to the west, and it will be out of the paddock not far in the past, and there are often wolves over there, which will be a little dangerous." ”

Zhou Chengwen raised his head and smiled: "It's good to have wolves infested, see which of us can hunt the first wolf?" ”

Zhou Changle also smiled and agreed: "Brother Crown is right, it's boring to only hunt some hares or something, you have to hunt a few wolves to go back, so that the emperor can be impressed." ”

Zhou Chengzhi glanced at Jiang Ling quietly, only to see that her expression was calm, as if she didn't care about their conversation. He frowned and thought for a moment: "Okay, let's go west." ”

The four of them rode westward, although not fast, but not long after, they reached the edge of the paddock, and in the distance were the wider grasslands and forests.

Zhou Chengwen and Zhou Changle had no intention of stopping at all, Zhou Chengzhi could only continue to keep up, slowed down slightly, paralleled Jiang Ling, and said in a low voice: "You follow me, don't fall away." ”

Jiang Ling said: "How far do they have to run?" There can't really be wolves, right? ”

Zhou Chengzhi: "Anyway, you follow me." ”

Jiang Ling nodded nervously.

"There really are wolves!" Zhou Changle, who was in front, suddenly shouted excitedly.

Jiang Ling looked forward, and sure enough, he saw two gray wolves, and they were so frightened by the horses' hooves that they ran forward. The wolf howled with his head held high and ran very fast, Zhou Chengwen and Zhou Changle whipped in unison to speed up the horse.

Zhou Chengzhi shouted: "Don't go forward!" Saying that, he said to Jiang Ling, "Stop!" ”

He grabbed the reins and reined in the horse first, Jiang Ling listened to the rare nervousness in his tone, and hurriedly asked the horse to stop.

The two in front of them ran farther and farther, and Zhou Chengwen turned around and shouted while whipping: "Third brother, don't you keep up quickly, I won't keep such a good prey for you." ”

With that, he chased after the two wolves.

Zhou Chengzhi and Jiang Ling stayed in place, and the hooves of the two resting horses rubbed on the ground uncertainly. Jiang Ling turned his head and saw Zhou Chengzhi's expression in front of him, as if he was worried, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Zhou Chengzhi pointed to the small hillside in front of him and on both sides: "Do you see it?" ”

Jiang Ling nodded: "It's just a hillside, what?" ”

Zhou Chengzhi shook his head: "Wolves are social animals and rarely appear alone. But there were only two wolves just now, and their cries were strange, not like the fear of running, but like they were luring their companions. ”

Jiang Ling's eyes widened: "Are you saying that there will be wolves near here, and it's just behind the hillside?" ”

Zhou Chengzhi nodded: "Very likely." ”

The two figures in front of them were almost small into black spots, and they slowly grew larger, only to see Zhou Chengwen and Zhou Changle dragging a group of wolves that were shot, returning to this side.

When he was about to get closer, Zhou Chengwen shouted: "Third brother, but I won today?" ”

Zhou Chengzhi frowned and ignored his smugness, and only whispered to Jiang Ling: "Let's turn around and leave!" ”

Jiang Ling nodded.

Just as the two horses had just started to run, the long wolf howl seemed to sound from all directions. Jiang Ling was startled, and when he looked back, he saw that the hillside was densely packed with wolves, which seemed to block the light in the sky.

Zhou Chengzhi shouted: "Run!" ”

Jiang Ling didn't think much about it, and with a roar, he whipped hard.

The two people who were still proud in the back saw so many wolves for the first time, so they were so frightened that they threw away the prey they were dragging in their hands and ran wildly with whips.

The horses' hooves galloped, but the wolves came from three sides.
