The rebellion of Yang Wengan in the sixth year of Wude quickly subsided. Li Yuan returned to Chang'an, the crown prince was still the crown prince, and the king of Qin was still the king of Qin, and there seemed to be no change. However, a discerning person can see at a glance that due to Li Yuan's inappropriate handling, the three brothers who were originally eager to kill each other are now even more like enemies. The only remaining brotherly relationship is like a thin window paper, which can be broken with a single stab.

However, all this did not prevent the hunt in September.

In September of the sixth year of Wude, Li Yuan set up a hunting field in the south of Chang'an City, so that all the imperial nobles and meritorious children of Chang'an entered the hunt. As a result, Chang'an in September was particularly lively.

Today's Zhang Yunwen is already a founding man. Although it is the lowest level of knighthood, and it doesn't even have a fiefdom, it also has a knighthood after all. And Li Shimin, the king of Qin, personally summoned him, how could he not go.

Zhang Yunwen Bai Li Shimin's meaning. Li Shimin was afraid that in the process of hunting, something like Huo Qubing shot Li Kang in the Western Han Dynasty, maybe in the end, Li Yuan would also sentence a result such as "death by touching the deer".

So, Zhang Yunwen came to the manor outside Chang'an City and summoned Wu Peng and several other archers, some of whom were placed by King Qin's side, and some of whom followed him.

Finally, the September hunt began.

On that day, the team of the Qin Wangfu and Zhang Yunwen's team merged together and headed for the south of Chang'an City.

In the procession of the Qin Palace, Zhang Yunwen suddenly saw the eldest grandson walking on the road with several older children, and he couldn't help but be stunned. It seems that this so-called hunting is not just a hunting, but also a family gathering.

Along Suzaku Street all the way south, out of Chang'an, soon came to the hunting ground.

The hunting ground is very large, including a valley of a stream in the middle of two mountains. Outside the hunting grounds, a fence made of silk encloses several easily accessible places, guarded by Feather Forest guards.

When I entered the hunting ground, I saw that there were green trees inside, and under the shade of the trees in different places, bamboo mats were spread, which was a place for people to rest.

Not long after entering, a team of yellow horses followed. But it was the hunting party of the East Palace.

After a long time, I saw a large group of people slowly coming over, led by Tang Gaozu Li Yuan.

Seeing Li Yuan coming, all the people present knelt down: "Long live your majesty, long live, long live!" ”

Li Yuan smiled approachably: "Everyone's hard work! Today is a paddock hunt, you and I don't have to follow the courtesy of the king, just shoot and play separately! ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Led by several ministers, the crowd shouted out.

After a ritual ceremony, Li Yuan untied the rope from a deer with his own hands. Suddenly, the freed deer rushed to the distant mountains and forests.

"The hunt begins!" A eunuch shouted.

I saw that all the hunters present mounted their horses and pursued the deer. Some of the non-hunting men and their families sat leisurely in the shade of the trees, took water, snacks and other things from the hands of the attendants, and began to chatter.

Zhang Yunwen also picked up the big bow and galloped with Ma Wangshan on the way to chase the prey.

Sounds like "driving-" and "driving-" were endless, and the mountains were full of hunters.

However, it didn't take long for someone to be heard, "Damn, someone preempted you!" "It turned out that the deer that Li Yuan let go had already been hunted.

Zhang Yunwen couldn't help but sigh at that person's good luck. In the process of chasing a deer by hundreds of people, it is not by skill, but by luck.

However, since they were out hunting, it was impossible to return empty-handed, so Ma Wangshan and the other three reconnaissance battalion soldiers scattered and ran away under Zhang Yunwen's instructions, each to shoot a prey.

"Well, I only have enough dry food for myself, and if you want to have lunch, you can go and hunt two prey yourself! I'll go to King Qin's side and have a look! Zhang Yunwen said with a grin.

"Chief, how can you eat dry food! Don't worry, we'll hit two more heads, along with your share! One of the soldiers laughed.

The rest of the people also coaxed: "Yes, yes, we are still waiting for the boss to give us a barbecue!" ”

Zhang Yunwen scolded with a smile and left.

Since Li Shimin also had reconnaissance battalion soldiers by his side, Zhang Yunwen easily found the marks they left in some inconspicuous places, followed them all the way, and soon found Li Shimin.

At this time, Li Shimin was at the bottom of the valley between the two mountains. Li Jiancheng is also here.

Zhang Yunwen patted his horse forward, only to see a fat and healthy tall horse shaking his head and tail, snorting restlessly. Four hooves slashed the sand and gravel on the ground, a rebellious look.

Seeing Zhang Yunwen coming, Li Jianli didn't pay attention to it, but Li Shimin smiled at him.

At this time, Li Shimin's side, in addition to a few soldiers of the reconnaissance battalion, there were also several officials of the Tiance Mansion, like the eldest grandson Wuji and the like.

"Oh, why is it so lively?" A voice came.

Everyone looked at it, but it was a middle-aged knight who came over with several generals.

Zhang Yunwen recognized this person. This person is Yu Wenshi and, the younger brother of the former Sui Yu Culture, and later descended to the Tang Dynasty and was crowned the Duke of the Kingdom.

"It turned out to be Yuwen Guogong!" Li Jiancheng smiled and saluted Yu Wenshi, "I have a fierce horse here, and I am talking to my second brother about this horse training method!" ”

Yu Wenshi and "oh" said: "I see! The old man looked at it! ”

Li Jiancheng said: "I have heard for a long time that the second brother is good at riding horses, although this horse for my brother is a divine horse, it runs very fast, and it can cross a deep stream of several zhang in one jump, but it has a violent temper, do you want to try it?" He looked at Li Shimin with a smile.

Li Shimin frowned, if he didn't dare to ride this horse, wouldn't he say that he was timid!

Immediately grabbed the horse's mane, turned over the horse, and galloped away. When the people of the Qin Wangfu saw the King of Qin leaving, they also followed.

However, after taking a few steps, Huma hissed, and Huma suddenly jumped backwards, trying to let the man on the horse fall. Shimin jumped to his feet and jumped a few steps away to stand firm.

After a few moments, Nahuma stood honestly. Li Shimin turned over and got on the horse again.

Then Huma pouted his hooves again, and Li Shimin jumped off the horse again.

After three times, Li Jiancheng caught up and said with a calm face: "The second brother's equestrian skills are really amazing, and this horse will be given to the second brother!" With that, leave slowly.

Li Shimin turned his head, saw Yu Wenshiji, and said to him: "He plans to use this horse to harm me, but people's life and death are determined by their own fate, can they hurt me?" ”

After hearing this, Yu Wenshi nodded, silent.

Li Jiancheng, who was not far away, heard this, sneered and walked away.

Zhang Yunwen frowned, beat his horse to Li Shimin's side, and said to Li Shimin: "Your Highness, what you just said may have been heard by the crown prince, beware of him attacking you with this sentence!" ”

Li Shimin said with a calm face: "Let him go!" Not once or twice anyway! ”

Hearing Li Shimin's words, Zhang Yunwen nodded. Indeed, since the last Yang Wengan incident, the crown prince has been silent for a while, and he has been attacking Li Shimin with the concubines in the palace, saying bad things about him in front of Li Yuan, and not missing any opportunity. These days, King Qin was called to Taiji Palace by Li Yuan several times to reprimand him with his head and face.

And now, Li Yuan is becoming more and more uneasy about Li Shimin.
