The concubines in the courtyard next door were already panicking.

"Queen Mother, you go and persuade the emperor, go hunting at this time, I don't know if it will rain, but it is very dangerous." Concubine De looked at the queen very worriedly, and it turned out that the queen was the same as the queen mother, the old monk sat in meditation and was very stable.

The Queen Mother pinched a few Buddhist beads in her hand and opened her eyes: "How to persuade?" Concubine De will knock her mouth up and down, why don't you persuade her? ”

Concubine De was dumbfounded: "The emperor didn't listen to what the concubine said." ”

The Queen Mother closed her eyes again: "That's the son of the mourning family, he doesn't listen to anyone at this time, and it's useless for the mourning family to go." Your Majesty is not happy, you need to vent ......"

Hearing this, all the concubines closed their mouths, why didn't the emperor be happy? As long as you have a brain, you can think of it.

The emperor can not be sad about the death of the concubine, but the son still cares about it.

Shen Qing didn't leave the house after finishing freshening up in the evening, but pricked up his ears to listen to the movement outside.

"Miss, the emperor has taken someone up the mountain." Amu gave timely feedback information.

"Hmm!" Shen Qingwan sat aside, picked up the book and didn't have the heart to read it, the next thing had to depend on Gu Ci, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to help much.

The Queen Mother was impatient to see the sad faces of a group of women, and after blasting people away, she knelt in front of the Buddha and recited the scriptures.

Out of the queen mother's house, Concubine De glanced at the queen: "The emperor loves the queen so much on weekdays, but now that the emperor is in danger, why doesn't the queen seem to be in a hurry?" ”

The queen smiled very decently: "Concubine De, please be careful, are you cursing the emperor?" Or does the emperor not favor Concubine De on weekdays? If the emperor knew that Concubine De thought so, he would be very sad......"

Concubine De's eyes were on fire: "Where is the concubine cursing the emperor?" ”

The queen chuckled, and the smile on her face narrowed down little by little: "Then speak well, who will you say it to in a weird way?" The emperor has guards around him, the Praetorian Guards, and he hasn't gone out yet, what do you mean by saying that the emperor is in danger? Do you want the emperor to have an accident so much? The safety of the emperor is not the concern of Concubine De's eagerness. ”

After speaking, she glanced at Concubine De coldly, and the queen walked through the corridor and returned to her room.

Concubine De was so angry that her chest was blocked, she must tell the emperor......

At that time, the emperor rode a horse and galloped up the mountain first, frightening the souls of a group of guards behind.

The ground is so slippery, the emperor is still running like this, but it is easy to have an accident, in case the horse's hooves slip and hurt the horse, it is good to say, if the emperor is injured, they don't think about it.

"The Emperor's ......"

A group of people in the back were calling, but the emperor turned a deaf ear, his face was expressionless, but his eyes were a little red.

One thing happened in the past few days, and finally made the emperor a little unbearable, and this time he was really sad by his two sons.

However, he can't keep the old ten, can he still put King Qin in?

So, I can only hold on.

The speed of the horse swept by made people's vision a little blurred, and the emperor's mood was slowly relieved.

Because it was in the paddock, the emperor didn't have to worry so much about throwing off the guards, he needed to be alone and quiet, and it was really different from being locked up in a house outside.

Locked in the house, the more I think about it, the more I can't figure it out, and the more depressed I am.

Now I see the lush greenery and hazy smoke and rain under the mountain, and I immediately feel a little relaxed.

While looking at the scenery, the emperor looked for prey, and regardless of the crosshairs, he shot with the bow, as if it was not for the prey, but just to vent.

But unintentionally planted willows and willows, and the emperor hunted more animals than usual.

Each arrow shot out seemed to be a bit of anger, and the emperor felt more relaxed, so he hunted up, no longer caring about the people behind him, and went all the way into the mountains.

Where there is harvest, there is passion, and the emperor does not know the direction at all.

The emperor's horse is naturally one in a million, and no matter how powerful the equestrian skills of the people behind are, they can't keep up with the full strength of the emperor's mount.

In the process, there have already been people who have fallen from their horses because of a horse's hooves slipping.

Fortunately, the guards had a little effort and mental preparation, and they were not injured when they fell from the horse.

But after losing the emperor, the guards wanted to cry even more, wouldn't it be okay not to take such a toss?

The emperor could not hear them, and went into the woods to hunt and sleek, for the rain had stopped, and the heavens had come out in pursuit, and before they knew it, they had come to the depths, and above all, they had passed the edge of the paddock and were not found.

The emperor was staring at a vulture that was taking him as a prey, and raised his bow to aim at the circling vulture: "It's just a vulture, and it dares to peep at me, I really don't want to live." ”

I have to say that the emperor's way of relaxing his mood is a bit naΓ―ve, but there is no one else in this place, so he can be willful.

An arrow soared into the sky, seemingly menacing, but the follow-up was powerless.

He landed at the highest point without hooking the eagle and fell into the forest.

"Cut ......" the emperor once again set up his sword and prepared to continue the attack.

Who knows, there was a sudden roar in the forest, which immediately scared away all the arrows in the emperor's hand.

"Yes." The emperor immediately pulled the reins of the horse, and the horse and the people immediately rushed to the side.

The tiger pounced out of the forest, and landed just where the emperor had been standing, with an arrow stuck in his buttocks, which was really bloody.

The emperor didn't care about the behind, and continued to gallop on horseback, constantly shuttling through the woods.

The Emperor's horse is extraordinary, and it is also extremely fast and agile in this forest.

In addition, the emperor's riding skills were not bad, and he was tightly on the back of the horse, so he was not stopped by the branches growing indiscriminately.

The emperor did not dare to look back, but dared to keep changing directions, until it began to rain again, and poured on his face, which woke the person up, and when he looked back, the tiger had already been thrown off.

However, the emperor was also completely lost, and he didn't know where the direction of the palace was......

The guards who had come to find the emperor based on the arrows and prey suddenly heard a roar of tigers and tigers, and they were collectively dumbfounded.

"It's not good, come here, go back and bring more people, the emperor is afraid that he has already gone out of the hunting ground." The captain of the guard commanded immediately, his face solemn.

There are no tigers in the hunting grounds, but there are deer.

It is said that the deer is a symbol of the country and cannot be hunted.

Others can't hunt, but the emperor can! Therefore, there are herds of deer in the hunting grounds, and tigers in the mountains occasionally cross the border for food.

However, the emperor is coming to the palace, and he has already sent someone to clean it up, and the tiger also knows that he will seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and he should be very safe in the near future.

Therefore, the chief of the guard judged that the emperor had gone out of the realm of the hunting ground.

It's so wide in there, and it's hard to find someone.

And a group of people did not look for long, and something more terrible came, it began to rain again, and there was a growing trend.

As for the palace, it was already a mess after getting the news, and in the end, the queen had a headache and scolded everyone to go back to their rooms to stay, and they couldn't come out if they had nothing to do, so as not to always add to the chaos.

Concubine De wanted to sarcastically say a few words to the queen, but was blocked in her throat by the queen's words: "If Concubine De is really worried about the emperor, she will accompany the queen mother to chant more scriptures!" If you hadn't always said that the emperor was in danger at the beginning, would this curse be fulfilled? ”

Concubine De was scared to death, she was just worried that the emperor was in danger, how could it become a curse in the queen's mouth? She's going to die!

The Queen Mother glanced at Concubine De: "Concubine De came to accompany the mourning family to recite scriptures and pray for the emperor, everyone else went back to the house, and the queen arranged for someone to look for it." ”

The crowd was so sneering that they didn't dare to speak no matter what they thought.

Concubine De has a stomach full of grievances and can only hold back, who dares to make trouble at this time, will definitely be attacked by the group, and besides, if something really happens to the emperor, their concubines will not have a good time.

Shen Qing returned to the house in the evening, but Jiang Yining followed, a little anxious: "The emperor doesn't know where to go, my father also went to find it, how can you ride a horse on such a road?" ”

Jiang Shangshu's riding skills are just average, that is, he can gallop on flat roads and official roads, which is very dangerous in the mountains and forests, riding horses with poor riding skills.

Shen Qingwan said comfortingly: "Don't worry, there are so many people together, not everyone's riding skills are very good." So, when you get to the mountains, you definitely need to hike, and your dad will be much safer to hike with everyone. ”

Jiang Yining thought about it, and was about to speak, when he saw Yi Rongrong sneaking in and looking out.

Shen Qingwan couldn't cry or laugh: "What are you doing?" ”

Yi Rongrong's index finger was on her lips: "Shh...... The queen said that she wanted everyone to stay in their own rooms, and I was bored and ran over for fear of being seen. ”

Shen Qingwan and Jiang Yining glanced at each other and couldn't help laughing.

Jiang Yining said teasingly: "Sure enough, you haven't gone out much before, and you haven't entered the palace much, the queen's mother means not to let everyone go out to make trouble, it's not embarrassing to visit the door, you don't have to be so sneaky, in fact, someone must have seen it." ”

Yi Rongrong blushed: "Is that so?" It was difficult for me to enter the palace before, the Yi family was just a four-grade imperial businessman, and I wouldn't give our family a post if I had nothing to do, and then, I felt that those noble girls were not easy to get along with, and I wouldn't go to most of them. ”

Jiang Yining and Shen Qingwan both nodded understandingly, many people used to give Yi Rongrong a good look, and they all treated her as a money bag and wronged.

Jiang Yining pulled her to sit down: "Then you have to learn a little more now, and in the future, you will become Mrs. Yi'anhou, and some entertainment is essential." ”

Yi Rongrong nodded: "I will, if I did something wrong, you have to talk about me." ”

Shen Qingwan said with a smile: "Before August 15, a group of people will be released in the palace, and you ask the family to invite a better grandmother to learn more real skills." I see that the rules you learned before the draft are all appearances, and the grandmother you invited was obviously for money, but she didn't teach you how to be useful. ”

However, Yi Rongrong's grandmother is much better than what Mama Lan taught her in her previous life, even if she didn't learn practical things, some of them deliberately misinterpreted, so that she suffered a lot in etiquette.

"So?" Yi Rongrong nodded: "Then please ask Sihan to help inquire, the situation in our family, what I heard is not good, and the information is a little biased." ”

Jiang Yining nodded: "This is okay, in fact, you now have a holy decree marriage contract, and it is Mrs. Hou Fu who is sure of it, and those snobs will not look down on the Yi family as before, plus you give a high price, you can naturally invite someone who has the ability." ”

"Hey, identity! Even if the status of the merchants of the Daze Dynasty has improved, it is still inferior to others. Yi Rongrong sighed and said, obviously everyone loves money, but they put Shang in the last place, is it possible that this makes it very clean?

Jiang Yining raised his eyebrows: "You, don't complain, 'Shinong Industry and Commerce', the status of businessmen has been raised, and they can still be ranked in a position, which is better than some cheap industries, and someone has to do it." ”

"Yes, who would dare to say that they don't want silver?" Shen Qingwan chuckled, the princes have to find a reserve of grain first? Money bags are key.

"That's it!" Yi Rongrong finally felt recognized, and immediately nodded and said.

"Forget it, some people are like this, for fear of lowering their status and pretending to be high." Jiang Yining is also complaining, if you really don't love money, then who dares to say that you don't want a dowry to marry? Don't they all say that the more the dowry, the better?

The third girl complained for a while, but she didn't think it was interesting, so she didn't mention it anymore.

The concept of the whole world cannot be changed by the three of them.

Yi Rongrong is actually worried about Yi'anhou, basically the courtiers here have gone up the mountain to find the emperor, even if it is raining outside, they can't go away.

Jiang Yining is worried about a lot of people, her father, and the prince of Qi.

For the prince of Qi, Jiang Yining didn't know what to do.

The two didn't have a chance to talk in detail, and Jiang Yining didn't know what Qi Yu's situation was.

Although I know that he is not as scummy as he appears outside, there is no bottom in reality, and there are so many outsiders who are with him, he still has to pretend when he should pretend, and with the waste materials he shows on weekdays, he will definitely suffer a big loss.

Although Shen Qingwan was worried about her actions, she knew it in her heart, and she was not so worried, so she could only accompany the two little sisters to wait.

The rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, and the queen frowned, not that she was not worried.

The current emperor can't have an accident, otherwise Daze will be very chaotic.

And the emperor was looking for a place to shelter from the rain, and at this moment he was drenched in soup, and he also regretted it a little in his heart.

At last the emperor was sobered up by the rain, and the emperor was scurrying around in the forest like a headless fly, and suddenly he saw a cave, and he wanted to go in to take shelter from the rain, so he dismounted, slipped under his feet, and fell into the mud.

At this moment, the emperor couldn't care about it, although he hadn't been so embarrassed for many years.

The emperor only felt cold all over his body, and he also knew that if he didn't take shelter from the rain, he would get a cold.

Finally entering the cave, the emperor breathed a sigh of relief and immediately took off his thick armor to make his body easier.

I was chased by a tiger just now, and I was always on a horse, so I didn't have time to lighten my burden.

Before he ascended to that position, the emperor's life was not easy, he had traveled far away a few times, and he also knew some knowledge of survival in the wild.

Therefore, the emperor picked up some dry firewood from the cave to prepare for the fire, but he didn't pick up much, and immediately felt that the atmosphere was wrong, and when he looked up, he was almost scared to pee.

Many pairs of green eyes looked at him from the hole, and he could even hear the sound of saliva dripping on the ground.

"Ah......" The emperor was startled, and immediately threw away the dry firewood in his hand, and the armor on the side didn't care about it, and even ran out of the cave with a rolling belt, running around without knowing the direction, and didn't think of looking for a horse at all.

Looking at this, you can know that some of the survival knowledge that the emperor knows is actually half-understood, generally speaking, when you encounter a cave in heavy rain, you can't enter it casually.

Most of them are either wolves, bears, blind bears, or other powerful animals.

Even if you don't know this, you should check the environment as soon as you enter the cave to see if there is any danger, right? How can you breathe a sigh of relief and still think about picking up branches?

The perennial pampered life made the emperor no longer vigilant at all.

Although the wolves are also afraid of such thunderstorms, especially thunder, they will hide in this cave, but the prey has been sent to the door, and there is no reason to let it go.

Therefore, the wolves immediately came out of the cave, but they didn't see anything, and they couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

The emperor chose a direction, and did not go far before his feet slipped and rolled down a hillside.

The horse had already smelled the danger, and before the wolves came out, he ran back.

Therefore, as soon as the wolves came out of the hole, they lost the trace of their prey.

The emperor rolled down a very high hill, but he didn't faint, and he was afraid that the wolves would catch up, so he was startled by the earth-shattering thunder, and he didn't know where he got the strength, so he got up and continued to run forward.

In this way, I don't know how long it took, the emperor had already rolled down the third very high hill, and his whole body was so scarred that he finally couldn't hold it anymore, and he fainted in the rain.

As everyone knows, at this moment, his position is already a long distance away from the palace, so that a group of guards and ministers braved the wind and rain to find the dead but no one is found, and the heavy rain quickly covers all traces, making it extremely difficult to track.

Moreover, it was not all smooth sailing for the guards, and before it rained, they also encountered the tiger with the emperor's arrows, and they fought fiercely for a while before slaughtering it.

A group of people shouted while looking for it, and the tiger just lost the emperor, so he was attracted to it, and suddenly pounced, so that several guards hung up their colors.

Fortunately, the captain of the guard reacted quickly and immediately resisted the tiger, giving everyone time to slaughter.

Then there was the endless search, and everyone was caught in anxiety.

In this way, there was no news at night, and the Queen Mother couldn't sit still, so she didn't have the heart to recite the scriptures, so she sat in the house and waited.

Looking at the women with sad faces, the Queen Mother felt unlucky, so she didn't let others wait with her, leaving only the queen, especially Concubine De, who didn't guard the door, and directly ordered her to stay in her room.

Shen Qingwan sent Jiang Yining and Yi Rongrong away, it was not early to see that it was dark, the heavy rain had not stopped, and the people in the courtyard were still open and did not rest, I was afraid that they also wanted to get the news as soon as possible.

"Miss Shen, the queen asked you to come over." Yixin walked over quietly, and Shen Qingwan was about to go back to the house.

Shen Qing didn't go back to the house at night, so he let Xun Han watch and led Amu to the next yard.

That is, an umbrella needs to be held between the yard and the yard, and there is some rain, and there are corridors in the yard, so it is also very convenient to move on rainy days.

When the queen saw Shen Qingwan, her eyes softened: "Hurry up and change your clothes, this rain is too heavy, and Luo's skirt is wet." ”

The Queen Mother also nodded: "Be careful of catching a cold, hurry up and change it!" ”

Seeing that the queen was even ready for her clothes, Shen Qingwan was no longer hypocritical, and her umbrella couldn't completely cover the rain, and her skirt was at least half wet.

The cold starts from the feet, and a woman should indeed protect her feet, not to mention that her body is still nourishing.

It's just that it doesn't take much trouble to change clothes, and Shen Qingwan feels much more comfortable when he is dry.

"Mother Concubine, Imperial Grandmother, those guards and courtiers haven't come back yet?" There are no outsiders here, so Shen Qingwan changed his affectionate name.

Speaking of business, the queen and the queen mother couldn't hide their worries.

I thought it wouldn't take long to find it, but the emperor has no news now.

The emperor has no news, and the guards and courtiers dare not come back, who dares to say that he will not look for it?

The longer the time drags on, the greater the danger, and the queen and the queen mother can't sleep at this time.

The others stayed in the house, and they didn't dare to sleep if they wanted to.

"A day has passed, and the rain is so heavy that every trace has been washed away, what do you think? We're waiting here in a hurry. The queen asked Yixin to give Shen Qing a cup of hot tea in the evening, and there was nothing she could do.

"It's just that idiot who can do such a thing, and he has no brains if he is not happy, and now it makes everyone unhappy." Only the Queen Mother dared to say this.

Others can only think in their hearts.

Shen Qingwan took a sip of hot tea: "I'm afraid that this imperial doctor can't go up the mountain, the mother concubine can let the imperial doctor prescribe a prescription, first boil some medicine for backup, so many people are drenched in the rain, I'm afraid that there will be a lot of people who get cold, if someone comes back, drink two bowls first, so as to prevent it." ”

The queen patted her forehead: "That's right, I forgot everything, I'm in a hurry here." ”

The Queen Mother nodded: "Leisurely, you and Yixin will go to do this together, by the way, see if there is anything to eat in the kitchen, bring a little to Lan Yatou, and let the kitchen get some food, a group of old men are on the mountain at noon, they must be hungry at this time, and I don't know when I will be able to come back." ”

went out leisurely and as promised, and it should indeed be done well.

"Thank you, Grandmother." Shen Qing is not polite at night, when it comes to eating, she is happy.

The Queen Mother and the Queen looked at her with a smile, it was really good to be able to eat.

After thinking about it, Shen Qingwan said again: "Imperial grandmother, mother concubine, are there other people in this palace?" There is a village not far from the paddock, I wonder if the emperor will hide in the village? In case the emperor is in the village and a group of people are in the mountains, they will all miss it. ”

What Shen Qingwan didn't say was that the hunting ground was on the mountain, and ordinary people would not come over.

The villages are all at the bottom of the mountain, and if the emperor is in the village, the posture of going down will definitely not be too good-looking, and he will definitely not enter the village with all his beards and tails.

Of course, these bad things can't be mentioned now, otherwise the queen and the queen mother will be even more worried.

"It's not appropriate to make a noise about this matter, just let people go for an unannounced visit to see if there are any strangers in the village?" The Queen Mother thought for a while and said.

Originally, this matter was that the emperor himself had to go up the mountain, and it would definitely not sound good to spread it.

In recent years, the emperor has done a lot of stupid things, if it is so ugly, it will definitely be questioned again, and the current situation of the Daze Dynasty is not optimistic, and it is not allowed to be too tossed.

Although the queen and the queen mother didn't believe that the emperor had tossed themselves into it like this, they secretly had to plan for the worst.

The emperor did not establish a prince, and when the time came, he would definitely rely on his own means, and whoever ascended the throne would be orthodox.

Shen Qingwan is not worried, the emperor in the previous life can be fine, and this life will not be gone like this.

However, what Shen Qingwan didn't know was that the emperor in this life was more serious than in his previous life.

In his previous life, he was only willful, so he didn't run far, and was found and brought back by the hunter before it got dark.

And in this life, I was angry in my heart, so I ran a long way in one go, and it was a little late when I fell.

Generally, when it rains so heavily, the peasant family will not go out as long as it is not a special circumstance, so naturally they have no time to find the emperor.
