Chapter 16, Jueshan Hunting
In the twenty-eighth year of King Lihe, Lidong.
From the Luoyi Alliance to the present day, there has been a short period of peace, and Song Chu has not made a big move.
In the beginning of winter, He Tianzi was invited by Dali Taibao and Zhongshan Prince Tang to go hunting in Jueshan, and Taishi Menglan, Gongzi Han and Gongzizhi followed.
Jueshan is in Zhongshan, Yanzhou, and the first saint is a Jueshan person.
He Tianzi and Zhongshan Prince Tang were hunting in Qishan, and only Dali and Zhongshan participated, which was not a secret and was not a matter of importance.
He Tianzi has lived in the deep palace for a long time and is difficult to come out, or in the name of worshiping the old lady Bao Zi Kuang, the hunt is just Zi Tang's best invitation, on a whim.
He Tianzi, Zhongshan Prince Tang, and Taishi Meng Lan said that they were hunting, but they didn't even have a bow. He Tianzi rode his horse in front of him and said: "The two Aiqing, Song Xiao and Xiong Ran, the more calm they are, the more worried they are. ”
He Tianzi's eyebrows were full of sad looks, and there had never been a son of heaven in Dali for more than five hundred years who was as aggrieved as him. The Son of Heaven is just a caged bird, who listens to the dumb mockery? I'm afraid the only ones who are willing to listen are the two pillars behind them.
"Son of Heaven, Wu and Yue have already expressed their position, and now the four states of Yanzhou, Jizhou, Yangzhou, and Xuzhou are still Dali courtiers, and only Qingzhou Qi is left." Meng Lan replied.
"It's hard work, if there is no Taishi running around, I'm afraid my Dali Guozuo has been cut off." He Tianzi said sincerely.
He was naturally grateful to Meng Lan, who had been running around Wu and Yue these days, and finally lobbied the two countries to put aside their grievances for the time being and jointly resist the ministers of the Song and Chu tigers and wolves.
Zitang arched his hand and said: "Son of Heaven, relax, how dare Song Chu risk the disapproval of the world?" ”
"Song Xiao is busy swallowing the land of Husai, 200,000 horses, and there is no other family in the world," He Tianzi said, "When Song Xiao digests the Hus, I am afraid that there will be no more peace in the world." ”
The white horse that He Tianzi rode was none other than the thousands of miles of snow that Huthis paid tribute to, one of the three major BMW horses in the world. The other two horses are the greedy wolf of the Houthi king Greedy Wolf Wei Xiu's mount, and the other is the wild horse king who was raised in the Yingdu Royal Horse Farm and poisoned by the horseman Gongsun Ji.
"Don't talk about that, bring the bow." He Tianzi shouted.
A guard handed the bow to He Tianzi, He Tianzi swept away his sad look, raised his bow and rode out, and the guards were tightly guarded on both sides.
"Taibao, bother." Meng Lan Chaozi Tang said.
The Jueshan Hunt was arranged by Zitang, and these guards were also Zhongshan guards. Meng Lan had never seen the Son of Heaven so high-spirited as he was now since he entered the Li Capital.
Zitang returned the salute and said: "You and I are both courtiers, and these things are duty-bound. ”
The two chased He Tianzi away, and He Tianzi had already shot twice, but only harvested an innocent hare.
"Zhi, how about you compare your archery with me?" Gongzi Han held a delicate short bow and said defiantly.
Gongzi Han is the son of Song Yao, the mother of the country, and the son-in-law of He Tianzi. Gongzizhi is the son of Mrs. Ritan, who is a young man who went to Liangzhou in his early years, and now he has reached the crown and looks heroic.
"I am negligent in arching horses, and I am not as skilled as Brother Wang's arching horses." Childe said.
Gongzi Han rode out of the horse, bent the bow and arrows and loosened the strings in one go, and a small roe deer fell to the ground in response.
"Okay." Everyone high-fived.
"It's ugly." Gongzi Han handed the short bow to the guards and said.
"Ling Han, please go and protect my father, I don't have to worry about it." Childe said.
Ling Han didn't say a word, and then picked up his gun and rode his horse to chase He Tianzi away.
Gongzi Zhi looked at Ling Han's upright back and exclaimed, "I don't know when Zhi found such a good talent, so I am jealous." ”
"My uncle's men are just borrowing from me." Childe said.
Gongzizhi's brother-in-law is Jiang Wangshu, the brother-in-law of his mother Ri Qin Xiaocui, which is not a secret. However, Ling Han has only recently emerged in Lidu.
The younger generation is gathered here, and naturally only Gongzi Han is the first to look forward, in addition to Gongzi Han and Gongzi Zhi, there are also Zitang's daughter Yushu, Mr. Meng's disciple Shi Yanzhou, and the rest are inconsequential characters.
A four-like wandering at the edge of the dense forest, Gongzi Han bent his bow and wanted to shoot it, but Shi Yanzhou stopped: "The four are not like it, it is the mount of the first saint Boqi in the legend, and the four are not like the holy beast, and the appearance is naturally an auspicious omen." ”
"Then I won't kill," Gongzi Han said regretfully, taking his bow. There are no jackals, tigers and leopards and other fierce beasts in Jueshan, and the biggest prey is the deer and roe deer, which is not like the biggest prey, but it is a pity.
A group of big birds that returned late were migrating south, their cries were terrible, Gongzi Han bent his bow and arrows, and a huge white bird fell to the ground, struggling a few times and unwillingly dying.
"Zhi, who doesn't know that your favorite thing is archery and horse archery, and you look down on me?" Childe asked with a smile.
Gongzi Zhi also bent his bow and arrows, and an arrow went through the clouds, and a white bird was hit by an arrow and screamed miserably and fell into the forest.
A few sharp-eyed guards ran over and returned with their prey. This arrow is carrying two large white birds.
"The young man is amazing." Yu Shuqiao said with a smile.
"It's just a fluke." Childe replied.
Gongzi Han's face was not very good, after all, he was compared, one arrow pierced two, and he asked himself that he might not be able to tie two birds with a rope.
He Tianzi harvested a lot of prey, was in a good mood, and said, "Uncle, you have a heart." ”
Everyone only knew that He Tianzi wanted to call Song Xiao an uncle, but everyone didn't know that He Tianzi privately called Zitang always an uncle.
Zitang arched his hand and said, "That's all your subordinates can do. ”
He Tianzi couldn't get off the horse, so Zitang and Meng Lan naturally got off the horse and accompanied them.
"The Son of Heaven doesn't have to be sad from time to time, maybe the King of Song just moved the capital to Luoyi, and didn't have two hearts? After all, he is still the uncle of the Son of Heaven. Zitang said.
"The people sheltered by a weakened state are undoubtedly not full of sorrow and desolation in their bones, let alone lonely?" He Tianzi said, "Kyushu has many talents and talents, only I, Yanzhou, have withered, and there has never been a saint after Zichou." ”
"Son of Heaven, that's not necessarily," Zitang said, "The General Ling Hanling brought back by Gongzizhi is enough to be canonized, one person and one shot to deter the army of 10,000 people in the Chu State, and one person and one gun to make Yanzhou famous." ”
Ling Han was only recently famous in Yanzhou, and the battle of fame was to defeat five Li Du generals by one person. Fortunately, Ling Han is Gongzizhi's doorman, otherwise he really doesn't know how to end.
"Ling Han, he can't be regarded as a native of Yanzhou." He Tianzi shook his head and said.
Ling Han was wandering beside the three of them, his face was like frost, and he was carrying a spear, like an emotionless person.
"Son of Heaven, you can't go any further, and if you go any further, you will be out of the boundary of Yanzhou." Meng Lan said.
Jueshan, at the junction of Yanzhou and Yuzhou, after Jueshan is to plug the Mangyuan, and the Mangyuan is naturally Song Xiao's chassis.
"The Son of Heaven is the co-lord of the world, where can he go?" Zitang said, "I'm afraid the master is too worried, the Son of Heaven's favorite when he was young was riding and shooting, this is the vast and spacious Mangyuan, and the thousands of miles of snow are the world's horses, why don't you accompany the Son of Heaven to ride a horse?" ”
"Good." He Tianzi nodded and replied.
He Tianzi's favorite in his early years was archery and horse archery, and this gene was also perfectly passed on to his heirs, Gongzi Han and Gongzizhi were both good at riding and archery, but He Tianzi had not ridden and shot for many years. Probably after marrying Song Yao, Song Yao said that the Son of Heaven should not be greedy for fun, so He Tianzi stopped riding and shooting.
However, Zitang was sensible, first carefully prepared for the hunt, and then asked himself to plug the horse, He Tianzi rarely found the feeling of being high-spirited back then. He Tianzi was also a high-spirited young man back then, but he has not been since he married Song Yao.
Meng Lan was not good at riding horses, so he had to stay where he was, and he instructed Ling Han: "Good life to protect the Son of Heaven." ”
Ling Han nodded, and rode his horse to chase He Tianzi.
Gongzihan here felt bored, so he chased after the four dislikes, and everyone had to follow, unconsciously straying into the depths of the mountains and forests.
"Did I mishear?" Childe Han asked suspiciously, "Why did I hear the roar of the beast earlier?" ”
The fish letter swore that there were no beasts in Jueshan, not even the smallest wild cat.
"Did you hear anything?" Childe Han asked.
Everyone shook their heads, and there was no roar of a beast? All I could hear was the rustle of horses' hooves on fallen leaves.
"Childe, don't go forward." Shi Yanzhou said.
"With a master like you, what if there is a real beast?" After Gongzi Han finished speaking, he rode away, and walked farther and farther.
Plug in the plains.
He Tianzi rode the horse to his heart's content, so happy. After all, there is a lot of difference in horsepower, and Zitang can only eat ash when he chases hard in the back.
"Son of Heaven, don't run far," Zitang shouted, and then said to Ling Han, "I can't run anymore, I bother the general to protect the Son of Heaven." ”
However, He Tianzi was already only a small figure riding thousands of miles of snow, Ling Han was thrown away a lot, and the rest of the guards were still behind Ling Han.
Meng Lan was still waiting in place, and when she saw Zitang returning alone, she hurriedly asked, "Where is the Son of Heaven?" ”
Zitang replied: "The Son of Heaven is still riding the horse, and I ordered Ling Han to protect it." ”
"Taibao," Meng Lan arched his hand and said, "Mr. Yun was intercepted in the Mangyuan Plain?" ”
Yun Liang stole jade and returned from the Mangyuan Block, He Tianzi didn't wait for Yu Jue in Li, only waited for Yun Liang's death. Zitang said that Yun Liang was intercepted in Saishang Mangyuan, Meng Lan didn't regret it, and after Saishang Mangyuan, he went to Yanzhou, and naturally someone responded, but unfortunately Yun Liang died in Saishang Mangyuan.
Zitang frowned and said: "Now that Song Xiao has taken three jade jue, if four are collected, Qishan Sword Pavilion will really fall on Song Xiao's side, I'm afraid it will be even worse." ”
"Qishan Sword Pavilion will not obey Song Xiao." Meng Lan shook her head and said.
"Oh? Why? Taishi studied under Zichou, you should know some clues, right? Zitang hurriedly asked.
"I'm just guessing," Meng Lan changed her words, "Besides, my husband's jade jue doesn't know where it fell, how easy is it for Song Xiao to collect four jade jue?" ”
Zitang said: "I thought that the Taishi knew some clues, what if Song Xiao really collected all the four jade jue?" ”
