Chapter 1162: Black Iron Arrow
Chu Huan sighed: "Don't hide it from Madame, I have indeed been away from home for eight years, and I thought that I would never see my hometown again, but after all, I escaped death ......!" He waved his hand and sighed: "This is all old things, don't mention it." ”
Mrs. Liuli's beautiful eyes flickered slightly, and she was curious: "Why did the father-in-law say this?" Close call? Could it be that the father-in-law encountered a life-and-death dilemma back then? He lowered his head and said quietly: "Actually, before I met the master in Jinghua Palace, Liuli ...... Liuli knew about the father-in-law from His Royal Highness's mouth, and he was ...... to the father-in-law Always curious! ”
Chu Huan let out an "oh" and asked with a smile: "Madam, Your Highness has been paying attention to it for a long time?" ”
Mrs. Liuli's eyelashes flickered, and she asked rhetorically: "Doesn't the princess know that Qiao Mingtang, the governor of Xishan Dao, has praised you to everyone, and has strongly recommended you to His Highness." ”
Chu Huan had already remembered that when he entered Beijing because of King Qi, as a member of the princelings, Qiao Mingtang vigorously encircled Chu Huan and wanted to absorb Chu Huan into the princelings, Qiao Mingtang even hoped that Chu Huan would follow King Qi and serve as the eyeliner that the princelings placed beside King Qi, but the development of the facts, of course, would not follow Qiao Mingtang's setting, and Chu Huan never thought that Qiao Mingtang would control his future.
However, Mrs. Liuli brought up the old matter again at this time, it seems that Qiao Mingtang really recommended it to the prince at the beginning, and even the prince told Liuli about it.
Chu Huan didn't know why Mrs. Liuli brought up this matter at this time.
Do you want to know more about yourself? Or is it that Liuli still wants to help the prince win him over?
Chu Huan has not forgotten that Liuli is the prince's person, and she is an extremely intelligent woman, in private, he likes the feeling of being with Liuli very much, and in the public opinion, even in such a predicament, he still has to be wary of Liuli, and said with a smile: "Chu Huan has always kept in mind the love of Governor Qiao and His Royal Highness, and he dare not forget." ”
Liuli sighed lightly: "Doesn't the grandfather like to say this?" ”
"Huh?" Chu Huan didn't expect Liuli to say this, so he immediately smiled and said, "Of course not, whatever Madam says, I'm willing to listen." ”
Liuli said softly: "Is the princess thinking in his heart that Liuli is speaking for the prince and wants to win over the princess?" ”
Liuli immediately said through Chu Huan's thoughts, which made Chu Huan a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Madame thinks too much." ”
"It's good that the grandfather doesn't think so." Liuli whispered: "When His Royal Highness talked about the Gongfu, Liuli was just curious, the Gongfu was born in a poor family, but he was able to rise to prominence, and was valued by His Royal Highness the King of Qi, that is, Liuli has always wanted to see what the characters that make the King of Qi so fancy are like." ”
Chu Huan touched his face and asked, "Madame, after seeing it, are you disappointed?" ”
Liuli smiled and asked rhetorically, "What does the grandfather think?" ”
Chu Huan laughed and said, "Although the appearance is not amazing, the temperament is good." ”
When Liuli heard this, she immediately laughed, her delicate body swayed slightly, and her plump breasts wrapped in gray robes trembled slightly, "Gongfu is really very confident." But...... When Liuli saw the grandfather for the first time, she felt that the grandfather looked like a soldier! ”
"Soldiers?" Chu Huan smiled and said, "Madame naturally knows that before I entered Beijing, I had served in the Praetorian Guard of Yunshan Mansion. ”
Liuli smiled and said: "As far as I know, the Gongfu was transferred to Beijing in less than half a year after entering the Yunshan Praetorian Guard, and in just a few months, can the Gongfu become a real soldier?" ”
Chu Huan smiled bitterly: "I really don't understand what Madam said. ”
"Gongfu Mo forgot that Liuli has always been taken care of by the prince's side, and almost all the guards of the prince's mansion came out of the army." Liuli's eyes are like the blue stars in the sky, crystal clear, "His Royal Highness came out of the war at the beginning, and there was a group of soldiers who were loyal to him around him. ”
Chu Huan sighed: "In this way, Mrs. Fei thinks that Chu was born to be a soldier?" ”
Liuli sighed lightly: "I don't know, but when I first saw the grandfather, I felt that the grandfather had the breath of a soldier, that kind of atmosphere, not a real soldier, you can't pretend to come, if it's a real soldier, you can't get rid of it." ”
Chu Huan touched his nose and said, "A soldier has masculinity, so I will be a lady and praise me." ”
Liuli's beautiful eyes were as bright as stars, staring at Chu Huan, "Actually, Liuli wants to know, the father-in-law just said that you have been away from your hometown for eight years, and you almost can't return to your hometown, you have escaped death...... Did the father-in-law experience anything during those eight years? Then he said softly: "If the father-in-law doesn't want to bring up the old matter again, Liuli won't ask anymore." ”
Chu Huan hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "I'll tell Madame, can Madame keep it secret?" ”
Liuli's eyes were longing, nodding slightly, Chu Huan hesitated for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "Actually...... Hey, madam, we are trapped here, maybe we really can't get out, those eight years are the past I don't want to think about, and I haven't told the second person so far, since Madame is interested, I might as well tell Madame ......! ”
Speaking of this, he suddenly smelled a scorching smell, Chu Huan immediately screamed "oops", and hurriedly put away the knife, he talked to Liuli, but forgot that the snake meat was still roasting on the fire, and at this time, he suddenly realized that the snake meat had been burnt, exuding a scorching smell.
Chu Huan held the blood drinking knife horizontally in front of his eyes, looked at the snake meat that had already been burned for the most part, shook his head and sighed to himself: "Brother Snake, Brother Snake, I took your life, it was just to fill my stomach, but I was negligent and ruined your good intentions...... You know what you know, but don't blame me. ”
Seeing his appearance, Liuli couldn't help but smile, bright and enchanting, and her voice was soft: "Is the duge repentant?" ”
Chu Huan smiled, took the snake meat off the blade, and then said: "Madame didn't know, I was still young, but I was suddenly kidnapped by several people, and they were taken to a deep mountain, suffering day and night, at first I did chores for them, and then they were forced to build weapons, at first I didn't know who they were, and then I realized that they were a group of mountain bandits who plotted to rebel." ”
Liuli looked at Chu Huan with an indifferent expression, as if he was listening carefully.
"When I got older and stronger, they forced me to be their little minion again, and they practiced day and night." Chu Huan smiled bitterly: "Madam said that I have the appearance of a soldier, probably because I was trained by them at that time." But I can assure my wife that although I was with the bandits day and night, I never did anything harmful, and it was not until I found an opportunity that I took the opportunity to escape......! ”
Liuli lightly opened her red lips: "In this way, the Gongfu has been coerced by the mountain bandits for eight years?" ”
"I know it's hard to believe, and even looking back on it now, it's a dream." Chu Huan shook his head and sighed: "Fortunately, not long after I escaped, I heard that they were surrounded and suppressed by officers and soldiers, and they were all wiped out...... If I hadn't escaped at that time, I'm afraid I would have died with those bandits. ”
Liuli frowned slightly and said, "Do you remember where those mountain bandits are?" ”
"I don't want to think about these things." Chu Huan waved his hand and said: "Although he was coerced, he was still forced to be a bandit after all, and his net worth was not innocent, this kind of thing, if it wasn't for Mrs. to ask, Chu Huan wouldn't tell anyone anything." Shaking his head, he said: "It's all over, and I've been trying my best to forget this past." ”
Liuli sighed lightly: "It can be seen that the group of mountain bandits is a rabble after all, they have no knowledge of people, and they are both civil and military, such talents, they have not been discovered by them in the bandits' den for eight years, so it's no wonder they can't make a big deal." ”
"Madame is overrated." Chu Huan said with a smile: "In fact, there, even if there are some means, naturally they will not show it, if they really want to be favored by them and become a small leader, then they will really be in the same league as the bandits." ”
Liuli smiled and said, "With the talent of the father-in-law, even the king of the mountain is condescending, how can he talk about the little leader." ”
"Madam, are you praising me or hurting me?" Chu Huan laughed, suddenly thought of something, took out something from his waist, sent it to Liuli, and said, "Madame, look at this!" ”
Liuli saw that the thing seemed to be a black metal, pointy, and quickly understood, "Father-in-law, this is ...... Iron Arrows! ”
"Yes, it's an iron arrow!"
Liuliqi said: "Why does the grandfather carry such a thing? Staring at the iron arrow, he frowned and said, "It's rusty on it, it seems to be many years old." ”
"I'll just say that Madame's eyes are like torches." Chu Huan said with a smile: "This is not what I brought with me, but I found it in this cave." ”
Liuli was even more curious: "Found in the cave? ”
"When I was looking for food just now, I saw this snake, chased after it, and killed it." Chu Huan explained: "But I found that there was such an arrow in the crack of the rock underground, and the body of the arrow had already turned into powder, but this arrow was made of iron, so it was preserved." ”
Liuli stared at the iron arrowhead and said thoughtfully: "Liuli only knows that the bows and arrows usually used are wooden arrowheads, and few people use iron arrows. ”
Chu Huan nodded and said: "What Madame said is good, the reason is very simple, first, although the iron arrow is more lethal, the cost is very high, if every arrow is equipped with an iron arrow, it is a heavy burden." Secondly, although the iron arrow is powerful, but the requirements for the use of the archer will also be very high, the iron arrow is too heavy, and the ordinary arrow is not passable, the direction of the shot, more need to be strictly calculated, and if the iron arrow has penetration, it must have strong power. After a pause, he said softly: "It is a person who uses iron arrows, strength is the most critical factor, unless it is a wrestler, ordinary archers cannot control it at all." ”
Liuli was puzzled: "There are iron arrows in this cave, does it mean that there was a fight in it?" ”
"I've seen iron arrows, of course Madam knows Brother Xuanyuan, Xuanyuan Shao, the commander of the Royal Guard, uses iron arrows, and Xuanyuan Shao's cousin Xuanyuan Shengcai, there is no shortage of iron arrows in the arrow box." Chu Huan said slowly: "I have seen Xuanyuan Shengcai's iron arrow, compared to the one in my hand, this iron arrow is nearly twice as large as Xuanyuan Shengcai's...... In other words, the owner of this iron arrow must be a strong man! ”
