The Qin people are still martial, and if they want to gain fame in the army, in addition to marching into the army to accumulate military exploits and slowly improve their qualifications, the only way to participate in the winter hunt is to take a shortcut. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Winter hunting is an annual event in Qin, winter hunting lasts for three days, there is no threshold limit for participants, the powerful and common people are treated equally, the Qin people and Zhao people do not distinguish each other, as long as the participants have achievements in the winter hunting, they can get the king's reward, even if they do not emerge in the winter hunting, as long as they have a skill, they may also be favored by some powerful people as a guest.

Therefore, the annual winter hunting day is actually a martial arts examination of the Qin State, and most of the participants are strange people from all over the Qin State with a skill, and the magnates of all parties will naturally not give up this good opportunity to win a place in the army, and they have also sent their own clansmen and heirs to participate in the competition, striving to gain more voice in the army.

The place where the winter hunt is held is in Shenshuikou, a hundred miles south of Xianyang, which is adjacent to the Qinling Mountains that stretch for 800 miles, and there are many mountain beasts, which is an excellent place for hunting near Xianyang.

As early as half a month ago, there were already countless Qin people from all over the country rushed here, and when Yiren led the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces to arrive here, it was already crowded with thousands of people.

Wangzhai is set up on the bank of the Shenshui River in the center, and the camps of the accompanying ministers of civil and military affairs are scattered around Wangzhai, and the nearest to Wangzhai is Lü Buwei's camp and Yingzheng's camp.

This winter hunt Lü Buwei led a thousand guests to accompany him, and the momentum was huge, which also showed that Lü Buwei's power in Qin at this time was monstrous, which made Meng Fu and other old ministers of Qin very dissatisfied.

At this time, there were several old ministers of the Qin State gathered in the big tent of Meng Fu, and they were counting Lü Buwei's flying and domineering, and between the words, there was a faint speculation that the political prince was the illegitimate son of Lü Buwei, and not only began to worry about the future of the Qin State.

Meng Fu already knew that Yiren would appoint him as the right minister during this winter hunt to fight against Lü Buwei, so he was naturally silent at this time, but in Meng Fu's heart, he also had worries about the lineage of Yingzheng.

Zhao Ji followed Yiren and gave birth to Yingzheng in September, which has to make people think that Yingzheng is Lü Buwei's wild species.

However, Yiren's other son, Cheng Jiao, was eliminated by Lu Buwei's design, which caught Meng Wei and other old ministers of the Qin State off guard, and they were helpless for a while, not knowing how to deal with it, and they were completely at a disadvantage.

The old ministers of the Qin State in the big tent of Meng Fu frowned, but on the contrary, there was laughter and joy in the big tent of Lü Buwei, Lü Buwei sat in the center, and looked at a handsome doorman who was about thirty years old and looked at the side with a smile: "Chang Yu, this winter hunt has high hopes for you, you don't want to disappoint the prime minister." ”

A middle-aged scribe sitting on the other side smiled at Chang Yu and said: "Brother Chang is alone in the world in riding and archery swordsmanship, this winter hunt will definitely shine, and it should not be a big problem to win the first place." ”

These two people are the right-hand swordsman Chang Yu and the poison master Meng Jiao in Lü Buwei's mansion, if Tang Doutong knew that the famous Chang Yu was in Lü Buwei's big tent at this time, he would have to rush over to pay homage to Chang Yu's honor.

At this time, Tang Dou was in the small camp of Xiao Yingzheng on the side of Yiren Wangzhai, he came here with him, just to check the terrain near the winter hunting site on the spot, so that he could find a suitable place to set off fireworks.

The group of dragons came to congratulate, it was a big deal for Yingzheng and the others, and even Princess Haoyue couldn't help but be curious to follow along, but this matter was just a small matter the size of sesame mung beans for Tang Dou, and it was just a few dazzles, which was really not enough to mention.

After surveying the terrain, Tang Dou didn't want to waste time, beckoned Xiao Yingzheng to come over and said a few words, and then crossed back to the sky villa, sat down and drank a can of Coke, and then crossed back again, it was already the early morning of the start of the winter hunt the next day.

Xiao Yingzheng, who was dressed in military uniform, had already been waiting in the small tent reserved for Tang Dou, and when he saw Tang Dou appear, Xiao Yingzheng happily threw himself into Tang Dou's arms and said with a smile: "Master, it's about to start, I'm a little nervous." ”

Tang Dou smiled, stretched out his hand and patted Xiao Yingzheng's head: "What are you nervous about, with the master here, just do what you have to do." ”

Tang Dou turned his head to look at Princess Haoyue, who was also dressed in military uniform, and smiled: "What, Hao'er also wants to go out hunting with him?" ”

Princess Haoyue said shyly: "Empress Ji has to pull me to take advantage of the excitement, I won't go far, so I will go around the neighborhood with Empress Ji." ”

Tang Dou smiled, Princess Haoyue and Zhao Ji were together, so there was naturally no need to worry about safety.

At this time, Xiao Yingzheng tilted his head and looked at Tang Dou and said with a smile: "Master, I am nervous that I can't find the beast when I hunt for a while, or Master, you can show your might and summon some beasts to come over and hunt for me." ”

Tang Dou slapped Xiao Yingzheng angrily and laughed, and scolded: "Stinky boy, do you treat the master as a zoo keeper." ”

When Xiao Yingzheng was thinking about what the zoo keeper was, Li Si's voice came from outside the tent: "Qi Yu Prince, Meng Tian is already waiting for the Prince" outside the camp. ”

Xiao Yingzheng shouted outside the big tent: "I know, I'll go out." ”

Li Si responded, Xiao Yingzheng looked up at Tang Dou and said with a smile: "This Meng Tian recommended by the master is really good, yesterday I talked with him about the art of war, and today I invited him to hunt with me." ”

Tang Dou smiled, Meng Wu Meng Tian will be one of the fierce generals who will help you pacify the world in the future, that can still be wrong.

At this time, there was a drum sound in the Wang Village, Xiao Yingzheng raised his eyebrows, and said excitedly at Tang Dou: "Master, my father is gathering everyone, and the winter hunt is about to start." ”

Tang Dou smiled, patted Xiao Yingzheng's head and said, "Go, today is the day when you will be in the world." ”

Xiao Yingzheng nodded vigorously, stretched out his hand to put on his helmet, and strode out of the tent with his hand on the hilt of the sword, but he was also majestic and domineering.

Tang Dou told Princess Haoyue to pay attention to safety and let her go.

Hearing the neighing of thousands of horses outside, Tang Dou reached out and touched the crossing ring, and instantly crossed to the top of the nearby Maotou Mountain, which is the highest mountain near Shenshuikou, and it is also the place where Tang Dou selected to set off fireworks.

Standing on the top of the mountain, Tang Dou took the telescope to check again, overlooking the countless ant-sized people pouring out of the large and small camps scattered in Shenshuikou to gather towards the central Wang Village, Tang Dou smiled slightly, started the crossing ring, and instantly traveled back to the sky villa.

He didn't want to waste time going through the process of this winter hunting, and he could directly compress the time into the evening by going back and forth in an instant. (To be continued.) )
