Phew~"

The second prince came to Jia Baoyu on horseback, and his handsome appearance reflected his slightly hesitant eyes.

He smiled at Jia Baoyu and said, "Ziheng is interested in going with me?" ”

As he spoke, the eunuch behind him had already led a tall red-maned fiery horse.

"Your Highness is interested, but the minister is not reasonable."

Jia Baoyu also smiled faintly, and turned around to explain to Wang Yurou, and then turned over and got on the horse.

The two straddled their horses and slowly left the camp, and the second prince smiled: "Ziheng is still like this, he takes such care and love for his sisters at home. ”

Jia Baoyu didn't know if the second prince's words alluded to Daiyu that day, but he could only take it as if it wasn't, because he replied: "Your Royal Highness praised it falsely, Uncle Chen ordered me to take care of my cousin before leaving Beijing, and the minister should do his best." ”

The second prince smiled, pinched the horse's back under his legs, and sped up slightly.

It is a relatively wide mountain forest, and the avenue runs through it.

And the second prince seemed to want to find a quiet and cool place to talk, so he led the way to the forest.

Immediately on a shallow slope, the second prince smiled: "What does Ziheng think of the scenery here?" ”

In a casual tone, it seemed that he really just wanted to find someone to accompany him out for a walk.

Jia Baoyu followed his gaze, and in the distance were several small mountains, and as the winding path at the foot of the mountain explored, several peasant families could be vaguely seen.

"It's not a beautiful sight, but it's also a quiet scene."

Jia Baoyu told the truth.

The second prince shook his head and sighed: "I used to think the same as Ziheng, but now, looking at this, I feel that the scenery here is beautiful, much better than the same, red, gold, blue and white streets in the capital." ”

Jia Baoyu was silent.

Every person who has lived in the city for a long time, once in a while, will have such feelings more or less when they go out. Some are true, some are said.

And the second prince seems to mean something else.

Sure enough, the second prince immediately turned his head, looked at Jia Baoyu and said, "Ziheng knows that my father blames me for the death of the eldest brother." He hadn't seen me in nearly two months. ”

Jia Baoyu frowned, and said in surprise: "There is such a thing? How could the death of the eldest prince have anything to do with His Royal Highness, Xu is that His Royal Highness is too worried, His Majesty has no such intention, maybe it is only because of the assassination of the eldest prince, His Majesty is too sad, so he is unwilling to see His Highness. ”

The second prince shook his head, "Why do you have to hide it so much when Ziheng talks to me, I heard that my father announced that you entered the palace that day, and asked you to test the poisonous smoke yourself." If he didn't suspect you and me, how could he humiliate Ziheng so much?

You are the closest and most trusted person around me, and since my father doubts you, there is no reason not to doubt me. ”

The second prince's voice was sad, as if his father suspected him of killing his brother, which made him feel extremely depressed and desperate.

Jia Baoyu was speechless, and only said: "Your Highness, please be relieved, Your Majesty is sad and angry when he loses his eldest son." When this matter passes, maybe His Majesty will be able to figure it out himself. ”

"I hope so."

With a long sigh, the second prince turned his head and looked at Jia Baoyu with a sincere gaze.

After a while, he said quietly: "Ziheng and I met when we were young, and we were like-minded, and when I was in Shandong, you and I took care of each other and spent difficulties together, which was the most unforgettable thing in my life."

Therefore, I hope that no matter what happens in the future, Ziheng will be on my side, and he must stand on my side......"

The more he spoke, the softer his voice became. Jia Baoyu's heart moved, and he was about to reply, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a shadow shaking in a dense forest seven or eight feet away behind the second prince.

He was taken aback, and when he fixed his eyes, the man was hiding behind the grass, as if he was about to shoot arrows with a bow.

Because he and the second prince were riding horses, more than a foot apart, it was too late to rescue. Therefore, he could only immediately shout: "Your Highness beware, there is someone behind!" ”

In fact, there was no need for him to remind him, the second prince had already noticed his strange demeanor, and naturally turned around and looked back.

This sight scared him a lot.

Far away, he could see a cold light directed at him, a sharp arrow of polished silver shiny feathered arrows.

Immediately, the cold light flashed and rushed straight at him.

The second prince panicked, and in order to dodge, he had to hurriedly fall to the ground......

With a sound of breaking through the air, the sharp arrow hit the trunk of the tree next to Jia Baoyu.

"There are assassins, protect Your Highness!"

At this time, the guards of the second prince reacted, and they stepped forward one after another, quickly escorting the second prince.

Jia Baoyu said coldly: "There is only one assassin, and after the grass, don't catch him quickly!" ”

As soon as he said this, the nervous guards were slightly relieved, and then the two leading men raised their swords and marched forward on guard.

But they won't be able to catch anyone.

Jia Baoyu had already seen that after the assassin hurriedly shot an arrow, he also knew that there was no second chance, and jumped directly into the dense bushes behind.

There, the horses are clearly not getting by.

The point isn't the Assassins, though......

Jia Baoyu jumped off the horse, helped the second prince up, and asked with concern: "How is Your Highness, are you okay?" ”

The second prince's face was pale, his head was covered with fine sweat, and he was covering his legs and knees with one hand, as if he was injured, and some pain was unbearable.

Jia Baoyu's face changed, and he immediately ordered the guards: "Don't invite the imperial doctor yet." ”

"Ahem, Ziheng is not in a hurry, I'm fine, I should just bump into ......"

The second prince smiled very reluctantly.

Then he glanced at the assassins, turned to the guards and said, "Help me back......

As he spoke, he fell straight down.

And it seemed to pull the wound again, and the second prince screamed in pain.

Jia Baoyu's complexion changed again, because as the second prince's hand holding his knee was picked up, there was a bright red blood mark on it......

In this way, the second prince could not refuse, Jia Baoyu directly ordered someone to go back to call the accompanying imperial doctor and prepare the carriage.

Although the second prince blamed Jia Baoyu for making a big fuss, he didn't seriously refuse in the end.

Then, Jia Baoyu wanted to give an order, ordering the guards to surround the area and search for the Assassins.

The second prince said: "Don't make such a big move, there are many elders in the sect this trip, so you don't need to panic everyone like this." Besides, the place was remote, and it was not known how many Assassins there were, so the camp could not be left unprotected.

Only send two teams to search, if you can catch the best, if you can't catch it, that's it, anyway, this is not the first time......"

The second prince said, laughing at himself.

As a prince, he was assassinated three or four times in just two years, and no one may believe it.

When Jia Baoyu heard this, he had to listen.

After a while, the imperial doctor hurriedly came, took a closer look, and said that the second prince just knocked his knee on the stone, and it was unrelated.

However, because of the fragility of the knee and the injury to the knee bone, the second prince needs to recuperate well and not move, so that he will have no hindrance to his actions in the future.

So the imperial doctor bandaged the wound, and the eunuchs supported the second prince and drove him back to the camp in a carriage.

"Second master, are you okay?"

Because Jia Baoyu followed the second prince out to be idle, Mingyan couldn't follow too closely, so he waited around.

At this time, it is good to step forward.

"Second master, what are you looking at?"

Mingyan pulled the sleeve of Jia Baoyu's clothes and looked at it roughly, and he was sure that Jia Baoyu was not injured in the place he touched, so he was relieved.

Seeing Jia Baoyu staring at the tree in front of him, he stepped forward to ask, and wiped the brand-new wounds on the tree with his hand, and said casually: "This is the assassin's arrow, it's so powerful, it shot so deep!" However, fortunately, the second prince is fine, and the second master is fine......"

Mingyan said in a huff, and pulled Jia Baoyu away.

How did he know what Jia Baoyu was thinking.

The location of the assassin, Jia Baoyu Fang saw. He wondered if the position of the assassin and the position of the arrow on the tree were connected to each other, and whether it was past the point where the second prince was at that time......
