Li Yan and Han Qian led the horses for nearly half an hour, and finally walked out of the vast North Mountain.

At this time, Linghu Dezhao was anxiously waiting for Li Yan's return at the bottom of the mountain, walking back and forth from time to time.

"Brother Linghu, Yan Gongzi will be fine, and besides, the one under him named Han Qian is strong in martial arts at a glance, what big things can happen?" Zhang Hu next to him looked at the anxious Linghu Dezhao and said with relief.

"Brother Zhang, it's not like you didn't hear it, the roar of the tiger just now, if I hadn't held the reins, my horse would have run away. Moreover, they are still in the mountains. Linghu Dezhao glanced at Zhang Hu and said.

At this moment, Zhang Hu's horse was hanging with two yellow sheep and a brightly colored golden pheasant.

Zhang Hucong opened the water bag and took a sip of water, then looked at Beishan and frowned and said, "Wait a while and they haven't come out yet, can I go in and find them?" ”

"There is Brother Lao Zhang, it's better for you to be now~" Linghu Dezhao was halfway through speaking, and Li Yan and Han Qian had already left the mountains and forests.

"See? I said it would be fine, so you just worry about it. Zhang Hu saw Li Yan and Han Qian walking out of the mountains and forests, and said teasing to Linghu Dezhao.

After Li Yan and Han Qian walked in, Ling Hu Dezhao and Zhang Hu opened their mouths wide, staring at the tiger on Li Yan's horse without blinking, and couldn't say a word for a long time.

"Brother Yan, is this what you hit?" Linghu Dezhao pinched himself fiercely and said with a surprised expression.

"What a tiger!" Zhang Hu was also shocked.

"Brother Dezhao, what's wrong with you? Isn't it a tiger? It's worth the fuss! Li Yan said with a smug face.

"It's so light that I worry about you for a long time." Linghu Dezhao looked at Li Yan's demented appearance, and he didn't get angry.

"Look! Brother Lei Ming also came out. Zhang Hu pointed to the thunder that was walking towards them in the distance and said.

I saw that Lei Ming immediately hung three fat yellow sheep, and the jujube red horse under the step slowly moved forward with a load.

After a long while, Lei Ming approached Li Yan and them, with a huge longbow on his back and a tired face.

"Alright. It's getting dark, let's go back! Linghu Dezhao took a yellow sheep from Han Qian's hand, hung it on the back of the horse and said to everyone.

Li Yan and his entourage of five people rode horses and galloped towards the camp in the north of the city. Since there was no need to rush back, a few people in the group did not go back from the path. After all, it was extremely inconvenient to take the trail with the prey, and on the way, Li Yan and the others also saw several waves of children of the Hexi family who had returned from hunting in Beishan. They didn't have too much prey, and some even went back empty-handed.

At this time, at the same foot of Beishan, the people of the Yin family and the Suo family were anxiously waiting for Zhu Yuanhu's return. The sun was about to set, but Zhu Yuanhu was still nowhere to be seen.

After a while, the Yin family and the Suo family finally looked forward to the arrival of Zhu Yuanhu, who was carrying a long knife and a long bow on his back at the moment. There was a yellow sheep hanging from the horse.

"Captain Zhu, I've finally looked forward to you. Why is this just this~" Yin Shiji looked at the yellow sheep on Zhu Yuanhu's horseback and said again.

"Hey! Don't mention it. Several times I was able to hunt yellow sheep, and I was inexplicably scared away by my prey! What a fucking bad luck! Look, that's it! Zhu Yuanhu said and took out a long arrow from the quiver, which was three inches longer than the arrow they used.

"Big brother, it's this kind of arrow that shoots through the hornet's nest, who is so damn lacking in morality, Lao Tzu knows that he will be whipped to death with a whip!" Yin Shiji's third brother said viciously.

"And the roar of the tiger, scared all the prey in the mountains into the mountains, and my yellow sheep chased it for a long time before it was hunted." Zhu Yuanhu sighed deeply.

After Yin Shiji and Suo Ming glanced at each other, they pointed to the prey on the ground and said to Zhu Yuanhu: "Captain Zhu, these are all fought by you. ”

"Good! Thank you for your support! Zhu is welcome! Zhu Yuanhu said and said to Yin Shiji and Suo Ming.

"Huh! are all in the service of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Why be polite? Yin Shiji said with a smile.

"It's getting late, let's go!" Suo Ming got on the horse and urged.

Li Yan and his entourage finally returned to the gate of the camp in the north of the city.

The gatekeepers did not stop Li Yan and his party when they saw it, and Li Yan took the initiative to dismount and lead the horses into the camp. The barracks are afraid of startling horses, and once a horse startling occurs, the consequences are unimaginable.

The officers and men of the battalion were all taken aback when they saw the tiger on Li Yan's horse, and whispered to each other.

After a while, a herald stepped forward and said that King Liang had an order, and asked Li Yan and them to go to Dianjiangtai, and King Liang and the civil and military officials were already waiting at Dianjiangtai.

"Ladies and gentlemen, King Liang is invited!" The herald saluted.

Li Yan and his entourage led the horse to Dianjiangtai, and in a blink of an eye, they came to the front of Dianjiangtai.

On the stage, Li Wei, the lord of the country, and all the officials had already taken their seats, watching Li Yan and their safari children slowly come to the bottom of the stage.

After each man had set his prey in place, a soldier came forward to check and register it. The officials on the stage looked at the tiger that Li Yan put down from his horse, and they were suddenly in an uproar. The soldiers in the audience were also exclaiming loudly. Li Wei on the stage needed to maintain an unfazed image, but he didn't come down to check, and nodded slightly at Li Yan.

Some civil officials on the stage even disregarded etiquette and walked straight down the stage to inspect the lifeless tigers on the ground.

After a while, Zhu Yuanhu and the Yin family walked into the camp and came to Dianjiangtai and placed the prey in front of Zhu Yuanhu. Three yellow sheep and two wild boars, and a young deer. The largest number attracted a burst of cheers from the soldiers in the audience.

"King Qiyu Liang, the lower officials have finished counting, and the number of prey this time is Zhu Yuanhu and Zhu Xiaowei, three yellow sheep, a young deer and two wild boars. Li Yangongzi hunted a tiger, a yellow sheep, and a sika deer, ranking second. Captain Thunder and Captain Hammer are tied for third place. Han Qian on Li Yan's son's mansion has two yellow sheep and a wild boar in fourth place. Zhang Hu, the son of the general Zhang Jing, has two yellow sheep and a golden rooster, ranking fifth. Please take a look! An old man who looked like a civil official said to Li Wei.

Li Xin, who was beside Li Wei, couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly when he heard that the leader of this safari was Zhu Yuanhu, and he didn't hide the excitement in his heart at all.

"Ladies and gentlemen, do you have any opinions on the rankings?" Li Wei said lightly after looking around at the ministers.

The ministers led by Suo Xian and Yin Xinjian stood up from their seats one after another, bowed down and said in unison: "The ministers have no objections!" ”

Only Ling Huyi, Song Xuan, and Zhang Jing knelt on the ground and didn't say a word.

"Zhang Aiqing, do you have a different opinion?" Li Wei looked at Zhang Jing who was sitting on the side and asked.

"King Qi Liang, the last general only knows how to kill the enemy on the battlefield, and everything is up to the prince's decision." Zhang Jing knelt down on one knee and said.

"King Qi Liang, the minister has objections!" Ling Hu Yi stood up and said.

"Oh? I don't know what Aiqing's objections are? Li Wei sat on the main seat and said with a smile.

"King Qi Liang, if this safari is only determined by the number of numbers, the minister thinks it is extremely inappropriate. Although Captain Zhu ranks first in terms of quantity, Li Yan is the king of beasts, and this courage alone is really rare, how can it be matched by just pigs and sheep? Besides, what Li Yan hunted was an adult buck, how could it be compared to Captain Zhu's young deer? If Captain Zhu is ranked first, wouldn't it be ridiculous and generous to spread it? My Da Liang is so talented that he wants to use mundane things to make up for it? Ling Huyi was foaming at the mouth, and the more he spoke, the more excited he became.

"The minister seconded the proposal! Although Captain Zhu is ahead in numbers, if he is set as the first place, the minister thinks it is unfair. Now Li Yan has hunted tigers and stags, which is a sign of the prosperity of my Daliang country! God bless me for being cold! The minister thought that Li Yan should be the first place in this safari, and implored the prince to decide. Song Xuan, who was bowed down by Li Hui, stood up and said sonorously.

"The minister thinks that Lord Linghu and Lord Song are opening their mouths, and the prince has already said that the one with the most prey wins, and the two adults ignore the prince's promise, do they want to make the prince fall into a place where he has no promise?" Suo Xian gave Li Wei a salute and then glared at Song Xuan and said.

"Lord Suo is reasonable, please think twice!" Yin Jianxing echoed.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the former Qin lost his deer, and the world chased him. Do you think what Song Changshi said makes sense? Li Wei asked the military officials in the audience.

Many civil and military officials on the stage, as soon as they heard Song Xuan talk about the national fortune, and then thought about why Li Wei still asked for his own opinion, which one is not a human spirit, they instantly got up and said: "The minister seconded the proposal!" ”

Suo Xian and Yin Xinjian saw that many officials who were still echoing them just now turned back, and their faces were flushed with anger.

Li Xin, who was on Li Wei's side, saw that many officials had turned against the water, and came out and said: "Father, you have personally said that you have the most prey~"

"Huh?" Li Wei stopped interrupting Li Xin's words, and Li Xin saw that Li Wei's face was full of displeasure, so he could only bow down and retreat to the side.

"The two Aiqing are reasonable, and the order will go down, this safari, with Li Yan as the leader, Zhu Yuanhu second, and the rest remain the same." Li Wei's majestic voice resounded throughout the camp.

"Liang Wang Shengming!" The military officials on the stage and the soldiers on the stage said in unison.

Li Wei sat on the handsome platform and said loudly: "Yan'er, this safari is headed by you, let's talk!" What reward do you want? If it's not too excessive, grandpa will allow it. ”

Li Yan walked quickly from the point general stage to the point general platform, knelt down on one knee and said excitedly: "Grandson Li Yan thank grandpa, grandson wants grandpa's horse lance, please grandpa for permission!" ”

"Father, no! The horse lance is your favorite weapon," Li Xin saw that Li Yan opened his mouth to ask for the horse lance, and hurriedly spoke. Li Xin fought in Beiliang with Li Wei in his early years, and he had long regarded Li Wei's horse lance as his own bag.

"Good! That's it! This king is old, and in two years it will be the year of the sixtieth year, and in the future, I will still be the world of your young people. This king hopes that all of you Aiqing can cooperate sincerely in the future to fight against pseudo-Liang, so as to protect my great Liang foundation. Li Wei said with a tired face.

Now the prince Li Xin in the middle of the country can't convince the public, and the court is divided into a faction headed by Song Xuan, who strives to protect Li Yan, the only son of the former prince Li Tan, and a faction headed by the current prince Li Xin, intrigue all day long, but he can't do without their support, Li Wei suddenly felt a little helpless.

Without the support of these families, Liang Guo would have collapsed and separated long ago. If he leaves, can Li Xin live in these families? This question has always been seared in Li Wei's mind.

After a while, a sergeant fetched Li Wei's horse lance. After Li Wei took the horse lance, he took a look at the horse lance that had been with him for most of his life, got up and slowly walked down the platform to Li Yan, and handed the horse lance to Li Yan with his own hands.

"Come on! Take it! From now on it will be yours. Li Wei said reluctantly.

"Thank you, Grandpa." Li Yan's eyes were moist, and he kowtowed heavily to Li Yan.

"Hurry up! How can my Li family child be such a daughter! Li Wei helped Li Yan up and reproached.

After Li Wei returned to the handsome platform and sat down, he said in a deep voice: "This safari ends here. Zhu Yuanhu had a bounty of five hundred taels, and the rest of the top five bounties each had a bounty of three hundred taels. Early tomorrow morning, there will be a big competition in the army. Tonight, a banquet will be held in the camp, and all the Aiqing and the soldiers in the camp will drink happily. ”
