(Thanks to the book friend yangyi771 for the tips and messages, Huangguoshu has been working hard.) )

The school grounds were already packed, and most of the hunters had returned, waiting in line, waiting for officials to count them so that they could be ranked.

Li Hongji got carried away on his war horse, and he shot a total of five hares, two pheasants, and was very lucky to catch two adult deer, which was not a small harvest. Looking at it, there is no one more than him, and this is the first to be decided.

Several sturdy men looked at Li Hongji, daring to be angry but not daring to speak, one of them was even more angry, he finally shot a deer, but was snatched away by Li Hongji by virtue of his identity, how could he not be angry? But Li Hongji is the prince after all, and no one dares to offend him.

When Yang Lian appeared not far from Li Hongji, Li Hongji smiled, Yang Lian's hands were empty, and he seemed to be very melancholy on the war horse, when Yang Lian entered Li Hongji's side, Li Hongji couldn't help but sneer, and said: "Yang Lian, you don't seem to have gained anything, there are still a few pheasants here in my father, so I might as well give them to you." ”

"It seems that Commander Yang is only suitable for pheasants." A person next to Li Hongji sneered, Yang Lian cut him a glance and didn't know him.

Yang Lian smiled and didn't bother to pay attention to them. Seeing that Yang Lian didn't speak, the man became even more arrogant, and said, "Commander Yang doesn't speak, is he arrogant or shameless?" As he spoke, he was very proud in front of Yang Lian.

"Good dogs don't get in the way." Yang Lian said lightly.

"Who do you say is the dog?" The man was furious.

"Whoever stands in my way is a dog, and the lowliest of wild dogs." Yang Lian's eyebrows were raised, and he looked at this person fearlessly.

"Yang Lian, I heard that you fought in Changzhou, and your meritorious service was not small. Do you dare to fight me and see who is stronger? The man said again.

"Who are you?" Yang Lian asked.

The man's expression was stunned, but he still introduced himself: "I am Zhu Lingyun, the Marquis of the Divine Guard. ”

"Please forgive Yang Lian for being lonely and unheard, what is this Zhu Ling? I don't know and don't want to know. Yang Lian sneered, turned the horse and was about to leave.

Zhu Lingyun once again blocked in front of Yang Lian and said, "Yang Lian, you deceive people too much!" ”

"What about lying to you?!" Yang Lian's voice just fell, "Qiang! With a bang, the long knife in his hand had been pulled out, and it was placed on Zhu Lingyun's neck.

Zhu Lingyun was taken aback, Yang Lian's movements were so fast, just now he saw Yang Lian looking weak and bulliful, so he relaxed his vigilance, and he didn't expect Yang Lian to disagree, so he pulled out his knife and went on. Zhu Lingyun's neck was cold, and he didn't dare to say anything more at the moment, for fear that Yang Lian, a stunned young man, would really kill him. Even if he doesn't do it, he will always have to suffer.

"You've got a lot to say." Yang Lian said lightly, looked at him very seriously, and said, "It's a pity that your ability is not strong." ”

Zhu Lingyun glanced at Li Hongji for help, hoping that Li Hongji could help him speak, but Li Hongji saw that Zhu Lingyun was so embarrassed, so he snorted coldly and left.

Yang Lian withdrew the long knife, smiled, and said, "A dog must also follow the master, otherwise there will be no food." With that, he walked away. Zhu Lingyun looked at Yang Lian's departing back, his eyes were cold, this revenge must be avenged.

Yang Lian lined up quietly, but the county lord of Huairou was not so quiet, with the guards, carrying the deer and sheep, making the chickens and dogs restless.

Li Jingsui, the king of Qi, led people to count, and when he saw Yang Lian coming, he didn't feel a little strange, Yang Lian didn't bring prey, could it be said that he didn't catch anything? But then he saw the county lord of Huairou with the guards, coming on a rampage, and with a lot of prey, Li Jingsui breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that the prey was held by the county lord of Huairou.

It took more than half an hour to count the prey one by one, and after the prey was counted, it was put away and eaten for dinner. The soldiers of the baggage battalion dragged the sheep and deer down, killed, washed, cut into pieces, boiled or burned.

Li Hongji's prey is very prominent among many hunters, but it is worse than that of the county lord of Huairou. In fact, there are a lot of prey in Zhongshan, but the drum of Li Jingsui, the king of Qi, scared away a lot of animals, and the hunters are all on the periphery of the hunting ground.

Yang Lian is a rare hunter who is willing to take the time to climb over a few ridges and avoid most people.

Li Jingsui, the king of Qi, was ready to hang the prey under the name of the county lord of Huairou to the name of Yang Lian, in his opinion, how could Huairou hunt if he didn't know how to shoot arrows? Even if it wasn't Yang Lian's, it was killed by these guards. It's better to give it to Yang Lian.

"Father, these are mine." The county lord of Huairou was very excited.

"Yours?" Li Jingsui glanced at Yang Lian very suspiciously.

Yang Lian nodded and said, "It's indeed the county lord's." ”

The county lord of Huairou raised his head proudly, his chest was held high, like a proud peacock, the men around him looked straight, Li Jingsui snorted coldly, and several people nearby hurriedly fled.

"What about yours?" Li Jingsui, the king of Qi, felt unreasonable, Yang Lian and Huairou went out hunting, Huairou had so many prey, Yang Lian couldn't have it at all.

Yang Lian took out a package from his back, there were blood stains on the package, and the bottom part was soaked and dripping blood. Yang Lian put the package on the ground and opened it, and everyone exclaimed. In the package, there are quite a few ears, and they are all right ears. There were ears of a deer and ears of a sheep, and after a quick glance, there were at least a dozen.

"What is this?" Li Jingsui asked strangely.

Yang Lian said with a smile: "Today is lucky, a total of seven deer and five sheep were captured. Unfortunately, it was too big, and it was inconvenient to carry it in the dense forest, so I had to cut off my ears to confirm that I had indeed caught them. ”

When everyone heard Yang Lian's harvest, they all gasped, such a result is already very good, but around the hunting ground, there are more people than prey, how can Yang Lian have so many prey? Li Hongji heard everyone talking, hurried over, and was stunned when he saw so many ears.

Li Jingsui smiled, which made people count the number of ears, and it was indeed recorded truthfully as Yang Lian said. and personally took it to Li Jing to see.

At this time, Li Jing was chatting with Empress Zhong, hunting was just a formality, and what Li Jing wanted to see more was the combat capability of the army, after all, Fuzhou and Changzhou were defeated, which gave Li Jing a big blow. As an enterprising emperor, Li Jing was unwilling to fail and wanted to take a look at the combat effectiveness of his soldiers through spring hunting. The husband and wife talked for a while, but they had not yet found a specific direction.

Li Jing came in, bowed his hand, and said, "Brother Huang, sister-in-law." ”

"King Qi, you're here, what's going on with the inventory of the hunt?" Li Jing asked.

Empress Zhong smiled: "I heard that Ji'er also participated, I don't know if I have caught anything." ”

Li Jing, the king of Qi, said: "Dongping Gong caught five hares, two pheasants, and two adult deer. ”

His son Empress Zhong was naturally happy and said, "Okay, this result is already very good." ”

"It's really good. The number of hunts in Dongping Gong is the third. Li Jingsui said with a smile.

"Who's the first, and second?" Empress Zhong was very interested.

"This second place is Huairou, but she has a few guards and can't shoot arrows, so the credit must be someone else's. The younger brother only recorded it faithfully, and asked the imperial brother to adjudicate. As for the first place, I also have to ask the royal brother to decide. Li Jingsui said.

"Whoever hunts the most, naturally who wins, is it possible that these people have the same amount of prey?" Li Jing felt strange.

"Brother Huang, the first place is Yang Lian, he caught a total of seven deer and five sheep, but there were too many prey, and it was difficult for him to take them away, so he cut off the right ear of the prey and let the prey go." Li Jingsui explained.

"Oh, you've caught so many?" Empress Zhong couldn't help but be surprised.

Li Jing was also stunned for a while, in just two hours, he could catch more than a dozen animals, this result is not bad, "Since there is a right ear to testify, presumably Yang Lian really caught it, and he is a well-deserved first place." ”

"Brother Huang is wise. It's just that Huairou's qualifications must be cancelled. Li Jingsui said.

Li Jing nodded and said, "Since you brought someone, you have broken the rules." Let Hongji be the second place, and the rest will increase. ”

"Yes." Li Jing retreated, and announced the rankings according to the number and size of each person's hunting, Yang Lian didn't care, but the county lord of Huairou pouted angrily, very displeased. But Li Hongji pursed his lips and didn't speak, no one knew what he was thinking.

Although there are still people who are dissatisfied, the disqualification of the county lord of Huairou has been disqualified, which has reflected a certain degree of fairness, and after everyone has discussed it, although they are dissatisfied, they have to gradually disperse.

At dusk, the bonfire was lit, and the people participating in the hunt ate in the school grounds, arranged according to the size of the official position, and Yang Lian sat in the back in a low-key manner, drinking wine and eating meat. Li Jing was amorous by nature, so the palace maids danced in the school grounds, and the singing was everywhere.

After dancing to the song, Li Jing stood up, raised the wine bottle, and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty depends on your hard work. There is a folk saying that the plan of the year lies in spring, and I am here, wishing you all good health. ”

Many people stood up one after another and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." In the chaos, some people shouted: "Long live Your Majesty." ”

With this voice, more and more people shouted "Long live Your Majesty." The sound of the mountain roaring and tsunami startled the birds in the forest to fly and hover in the air. Yang Lian drank silently, pretending to be a gesture from time to time, and shouted a few times, so as not to make others think they were strange.

When the voice subsided, Li Jing said for a while, it was nothing more than to encourage the Qing family to serve the country, and Yang Lian was not interested in listening. This banquet did not disperse until the top of the moon. Yang Lian rode a war horse and left cautiously, he was in danger today, and he didn't know who the person who was plotting against him was, now he was in the light, and others were in the dark, so he had to be vigilant.

However, there was nothing to do all the way, Yang Lian successfully returned to the station, called Chen Tie, and asked him to secretly find out who was dissatisfied with him. After Chen Tie left in a hurry, Yang Lian felt that something was missing. He has already seen today's events, he climbed too fast and was jealous, that Zhou Hongzuo and Zhu Lingyun were one of them, with one or two, I am afraid there will be more. If someone wants to do something to themselves, it is impossible to prevent it all the time.

To establish an intelligence agency to collect information from the DPRK and Jinling City in a timely manner, Yang Lian thought and fell asleep unconsciously.
