Zhou Jin chased after a very agile sika deer, and the wind was ringing in his ears. An arrow suddenly grazed his shoulder.

Geng Ming, who came in a hurry, was about to pull out the long sword pinned to his waist, but Zhou Jin restrained the horse and raised his hand to stop him.

Behind him, the second prince rode over on horseback: "Yo, fourth brother." ”

"Second Emperor Brother." Zhou Jin had no expression on his face.

"I wanted to hunt that deer, but I didn't think that the fourth brother would block here, how about it, it didn't hurt you, right?" The second prince faked a sentence of care, which made him have a good ability to reverse black and white with one hand.

"No problem." Zhou Jin took the horse to the side, "Second Emperor Brother please." ”

The second prince likes his fourth brother the most after being bullied by himself, a prince who doesn't have a sacred heart, who does he tell to go? So satisfied, he smiled a lofty smirk at the man, and as soon as he pulled the reins of his horse, he led the man after the deer.

"Your Highness."

"Huh?" Seeing that the people ran away, Zhou Jin led the horse to another path, and there was still no expression of influence on his face.

"Princess Xiaojun went to find Qingmei at noon and asked her to bring you a message, saying that Madame was taken away by Princess Anping. The subordinates ordered someone to check Princess Anping, and found that only the princess was waiting for people to come out of Wuyang Forest just now, but she didn't see her wife. ”

Wuyang, that is, there is no meaning of the sun. It means that the grass and trees are lush and not suitable for hunting, so the hunting grounds are not arranged there, and no one goes there on weekdays, and there are not many guards.

When Geng Ming got the news, he was worried that Princess Anping had used some trick to trap his wife there.

"Your Highness, do you want to send someone to find Madame?"

"Not necessarily." Zhou Jin's expression remained unchanged, and he was not affected by Xie Yiying's disappearance in the slightest. An Ping can't really hurt Xie Yiying, and at this moment, which person they pull out may have adverse consequences for what they want to do at the moment. This is imperative and must not be allowed to be hindered.

"It's almost time."

As soon as he finished speaking, drums sounded on the other side of the tent.

The drum sounded three times, signaling that after another tea time, the hunt should be over, and the prey should be brought back to the camp.

Zhou Jin has never competed with others on this, and at this time, he only shot two rabbits and one fox, no longer caught prey, and turned back.

When I arrived at the edge of the forest, I met Zhou Zhao, who had just come out. Zhou Zhao glanced at his prey and smiled at him: "Fourth brother is still like this, he never takes the game seriously. ”

"It's just that the skills are not as good as others." Zhou Jin also slowed down, talking to people and walking towards the tent.

"I saw the second brother just now, he hunted a wild boar, it's really amazing." Wild boars are not inferior to tigers and leopards in the forest, and the second prince always tries to win the first place in the annual hunting.

Zhou Jin didn't comment, he saw that Zhou Zhao was just an elk and a few wild birds behind him, and he knew that he didn't mean to steal the limelight. Every year, the two of them only do perfunctory, watching the prince and the second prince use this matter to suppress each other. It's just that Zhou Zhao is more serious than him.

The two arrived at the camp and put down their prey, but the crown prince and the second prince had not returned. After waiting for a while, he saw that the second prince had returned with a full load, Zhou Zhao glanced at it, and saw that there were all large prey, rabbits and foxes like Zhou Jin who were fooling around, and there was no one.

When the time was up, the prince returned breathlessly. There was a brown bear on the horseback of the prey, which showed that the harvest was very rich.

The second prince thought that he would win this time, but when he saw the prince's smug look, his face darkened suddenly. Who hunted the bear for him?

Zhou Zhao kept looking at them with a smile, dutifully playing the harmonious scene of brothers, friends and brothers. Zhou Jin only lowered his eyes, as if what happened had nothing to do with him.

At the end of the time, the drums sounded, and Emperor Wen strode out of the tent: "Let me see what my sons have hunted!" ”

All four sons went up to meet them, but suddenly an arrow fell from the sky and shot straight into the drum that signaled the time.

The arrow did not enter, only the arrow flickered out, and the force was so great that it could almost penetrate the entire drum. This is shot on the drum, if it is...... What about shooting on people?

In less than a moment, all the guards came out, protecting Emperor Wen and the four princes in the middle.

"What are you afraid of!" Emperor Wen was angry, "It's been an arrow, what's the use!" ”

At this time, the prince's face was pale as if he was frightened by the sharp arrow from the sky, but the second prince stood up with his fists clenched: "Father, the son has judged the location of the person who shot the arrow from the direction of the arrow, please ask the son to lead someone to hunt down!" ”

Emperor Wen's beast-like sharp eyes stared at him, and after a while, he nodded and said, "Meng Guan, take two hundred Praetorian Guards, and go with the second prince to catch the enemy." ”

The commander of the Praetorian Guard is with you.

Two hundred people are more than half of the total number of Praetorian Guards brought this time.

"Father...... Then we ......" The prince was shocked.

Emperor Wen was angry and wanted to kick people but didn't kick them, knowing that he had to save a little face in front of outsiders, he only gritted his teeth and said: "Enter the camp!" Otherwise, what are you doing here! Be a target! ”

The rest of the Praetorian Guard had been divided into two groups, one to intensify its efforts to monitor the perimeter, and the other to remain outside the tent. Under such a tight defense, there should be no more sneak attacks.

The crown prince was favored in the end, and a smile broke out on his face: "What the father said ...... said"

When the four of them entered the tent, Emperor Wen's expression was as usual, and he even smiled a little. Zhou Zhao sat down, only to feel that his father's mind was unpredictable, it was really terrifying.

"Come, tell me what you all hunted today, and the prince will come and talk about it first."

The crown prince sat on Emperor Wen's right hand, and at this moment he stood up and took two steps forward, kneeling down in front of people to report his results.

"It's not bad," Emperor Wen didn't let him get up, he sat there calmly, his eyes swept over his three sons one by one, and then sneered inexplicably: "Little Fourth, let's talk about it again." ”

Messed up the order and called himself first, Zhou Jin didn't seem to feel that there was a problem, he was sitting under the prince, but at the moment he took two steps forward and knelt behind the prince: "Erchen ......"

While speaking, a little eunuch outside the tent lifted the curtain and came in with tea, and when he walked to Zhou Jin's side, Zhou Jin only felt a flash of silver light, and the eunuch took out a sharp blade from under the wooden board and rushed straight to Emperor Wen.

In the flash of light, the prince dodged to the side in panic, and there was no one around Emperor Wen, but he glared angrily at the person who came and did not retreat, and Zhou Jin, with one foot, also rushed towards Emperor Wen with the rhythm of the eunuch.

Then he slapped the table with his left hand and turned sharply in the air, and his right hand was like a falcon's claw and pulled the blade into the man's hand.

Still...... One step slower.

The knife pierced through the air, piercing his clothes and plunging straight into his chest.

The sound of skin tearing.

Emperor Wen stood behind him, only to see blood splattered and burst into the killer's face. (To be continued.) )
