Chapter 689: Seeing and Seeing
"What... Dogs..."
“... Friends? ”
"I'm going to go this autumn hunt, I've never been to the paddock, let me see it, I have my own measure, I won't run around casually and put myself in danger, don't worry."
"Since Li'er wants to go so much, of course this king has to fulfill Li'er, Brother Mo Xuan should stop it, this king will accompany Li'er throughout the whole process, what else do you have to worry about."
"Of course I'm not at ease, your Royal Highness Duanwang will not be entangled by Princess Jiarou at that time, where will you have the heart to take care of Jiaojiao.
My cousin, this son can still protect himself, so he won't bother His Royal Highness. ”
"You... Mo Xuan..."His Royal Highness Duan Wang was angry, but he couldn't refute it, and he was so angry that he brushed his sleeves away.
Shen Lian and the two were amused to laugh wildly, they only hated that they couldn't play live broadcasts without mobile phones and networks in ancient times, but they didn't expect these two noble-born men, one was plain and cold and arrogant, and the other was plain and frivolous, but no matter when they talked about jokes or hurt each other, they spared no effort, not to mention those professional jokers or cross talk actors in the present world, it was simply a lot of joy.
The annual autumn hunt was held as scheduled.
Murong Tuo led a group of guards, princes, clan children, princes and nobles in the Tianli Palace, and the group marched towards the royal enclosure two hundred kilometers away from Lingyang City.
In this autumn hunt, the queen did not go with her because she felt unwell, and Murong Tuo, the harem maid, only brought the young Concubine Li and Princess Jiarou with her.
The annual autumn hunt is not only a traditional royal sport, but also a contest field for the princes to wrestle and compete, and it is also a good time for military generals at all levels to show their talents.
An autumn hunt, I don't know how many people's interests and ambitions are entangled.
This year's autumn hunt is still opened by Murong Tuo shooting the first arrow, only to see the Ming Di with the symbol of the royal family of Tianli Kingdom whistling through the sky, flying towards a wild goose, the crowd erupted in a burst of cheers, the wild goose with the arrow fell from the air, and the guards who had been waiting on the side immediately picked up the wild goose and presented it to Murong Tuo, and the autumn hunt kicked off.
Several princes geared up, immediately rode their horses away, and disappeared into the forest farm, whoever can hunt the most and biggest prey will be appreciated by Murong Tuo.
Princess Jiarou rode a horse and walked beside Murong Qing, who was worried about her safety, so he only took her to wander around the edge of the forest farm, and did not go to the depths of the forest farm.
"Fifth brother, why is Prince Mo Xuan going to be today?" Princess Jiarou muttered, twisted her body and asked with some displeasure.
"Mo Xuan, of course he's here."
"Where is he? Why don't you come and meet Jiarou? ”
"Mo Xuan, he is accompanying Miss Shen Wener."
"Jiarou is going to find Moxuan Gongzi!" As she spoke, Princess Jiarou turned her horse's head and ran towards the forest farm, but Murong Qing couldn't stop her, so she had to follow her.
Fortunately, Mo Xuan and Shen Lian had not yet entered the depths of the forest farm, and the four of them soon met.
"Moxuan Gongzi!" Princess Jiarou happily spurred her horse and ran towards Mo Xuan.
"Mo Xuan has seen Princess Jiarou."
"Shen Lian has seen Princess Jiarou."
Mo Xuan bowed to the princess, and Shen Lian rode on the horse to bless the princess.
"Can Childe teach Jiarou to hunt?" Princess Jiarou blinked her eyes and looked at Mo Xuan with an expectant expression.
"Mo Xuan obeys."
Jiarou happily tugged at the corner of Mo Xuan's clothes, and Mo Xuan took off his bow and arrows and explained carefully.
Princess Jiarou approached Mo Xuan, asked him all kinds of questions, and asked Mo Xuan to teach her how to use the bow and arrow.
"Master Mo Xuan, is this how the bow and arrow are used? Is the hand in this place? ”
"A little bit up."
Mo Xuan said and demonstrated again.
"But Jiarou just can't learn, and Jiarou is always inaccurate in the position of holding the bow that Childe said."
Princess Jiarou looked at Mo Xuan pitifully.
"Mo Xuan is rude."
Princess Jiarou repeatedly begged for help, but Mo Xuan had no choice but to hold her hand and teach her carefully over and over again.
Shen Lian immediately stepped aside, seeing this scene, he also understood most of it in his heart, but he just smiled indifferently and did not speak.
"Childe, you and I are riding on two horses, the distance is too far, it is inconvenient to hold the bow, or Childe will come to Jiarou's horse, and Jiarou will hurt in order to hold the bow steadily."
For Princess Jiarou's request, Mo Xuan, as a courtier, could only agree to them one by one.
Mo Xuan flew to sit on Princess Jiarou's horse, so that the two got closer, Mo Xuan stretched out his hand from behind Princess Jiarou, held Princess Jiarou's little hand, and explained the essentials of using a bow and arrow.
Princess Jiarou looked back at Mo Xuan from time to time, and her smile was as sweet as spring.
Princess Jiarou secretly glanced at Murong Qing and Shen Lian from time to time, with a smug look on her beautiful face.
Murong Qing only felt helpless, and Shen Lian smiled and said nothing.
At this time, several arrows shot out of nowhere, and shot at the place where the four people immediately came, startling several horses to fly in all directions, and then the arrow rain came from all directions.
Princess Jiarou screamed in horror, and Mo Xuan hurriedly protected her to her chest and rode her horse towards the forest.
Shen Lian's horse was frightened and fluttered its front hooves, almost throwing Shen Lian off the horse.
Seeing this, Murong Qing flew out and hugged Shen Lian and pulled her back to his horse.
Turning around, he drew his sword and shot down the cluster of arrows that came at him, and with a wave of his horse, he spurred his horse into the woods.
Mo Xuan took Princess Jiarou and Murong Qing took Shen Lian to gallop in the forest, they didn't know the situation behind them, and they didn't know who launched this sneak attack, plus the road in the forest was rugged and the woods were thick, and all the attention of the four of them was on the road in front of them.
Mo Xuan and Princess Jiarou had just been shot by an arrow, and after a quick run, they were already physically exhausted, and in front of a broken log that needed to jump and dodge, the horse lost its front hooves and fell to the ground, throwing Mo Xuan and Princess Jiarou out.
Mo Xuan carried light skills in the air, and suddenly adjusted his posture to hold Princess Jiarou in his arms.
Under the trend of rushing forward, Mo Xuan fell to the ground with his back to the ground.
Unexpectedly, the dead leaves on the ground fell one after another, and Mo Xuan and Princess Jiarou fell into a hole, and the huge movement drove the dead branches and leaves on the ground and the broken stones to fall into the hole together.
Murong Qing stopped with Shen Lian, and the two hurriedly dismounted to check on Mo Xuan and Princess Jiarou.
The two of them stepped over the broken log, and before they could stand firmly, they saw the ground shaking, the dead leaves flying, and the two of them also planted themselves in the hole.
The two of them fell quickly, the withered yellow leaves above their heads fell one after another, and as the two fell into the hole, they quickly covered the entrance of the cave, and the whole cave became dark and abnormal.
Shen Lian felt that Murong Qing hugged herself during the fall, she simply closed her eyes and buried her head in his arms.
She didn't know what was going to happen next, was this the end here? But it all happened so fast that she couldn't even imagine it, or even breathe.
He didn't remember how long it had been falling, but Shen Lian felt as if the downward trend had stopped.
She reached out and fumbled around, only to feel the softness underneath her, presumably to keep them out of the falling trend and provide enough cushion.
A little further on, her hand seemed to touch someone's face, presumably Murong Qing.
"Pian."
Murong Qing's voice was unusually gentle, and he gently held Shen Lian's outstretched hand.
"Your Highness is fine."
Shen Lian skillfully withdrew her hand.
The hole was so dark that the two of them couldn't see anything at all, and even if the other was around, they could only confirm it by talking non-stop.
"Your Highness, do you know this place, how can there be such a deep hole in the paddock?"
"I don't know, this hole is really strange, it stands to reason that the paddock is guarded by the Royal Hunting House, and every inch of it will be carefully explored, where did this hole come from?"
"Just now, the four of us were driven into this forest by a rain of arrows, could it be that someone did it on purpose?"
"The paddock is heavily guarded, how can it be? It's not good, there are assassins, and the father must be in trouble! ”
"This hole is bottomless, the most important thing now is to find Mo Xuan and Princess Jiarou and escape, His Royal Highness doesn't have to worry too much, after all, the Imperial Forest Army is guarding the Shengshang."
Shen Lian groped around in the dark, but she felt something sticky on the ground, which frightened her and quickly stood up.
"Your Highness, let's get out of here quickly."
"Li'er, Qing... I can't get up now..."Murong Qing's voice carried the difficulty of enduring the pain.
