Chapter 32 Adaptation
Qin Fei's hands and feet were cold, and he said secretly: "The next thing must be a blatant frame-up." He gritted his teeth, suddenly reached out and tossed his hair, and walked to the stage while singing a particle. The guards on both sides were stunned for a moment, and immediately stepped forward to take him down.
Qin Fei's eyes widened, and he said angrily: "The deity is the mountain god here, who would dare to stop you when he heard the call of prayer and call!" ”
Liu Xiwei's eyes rolled, and while ordering the guards to retreat, he stepped forward to protect King Qi and said to Qin Fei: "What advice does the Venerable God have?" ”
Qin Fei ignored him, and continued to shout and dance around the jade basin used to burn the turtle shell, and then suddenly pointed motionlessly at the sky above the south side. Everyone couldn't help but follow his fingers to look up, and suddenly heard the sound of "Teng", and a handful of green flames came out of the jade basin. King Qi was shocked and bowed down to the jade basin, and everyone immediately followed and bowed.
Qin Fei said loudly: "Three months ago, you and others caught a white deer god by the Eastern Emperor, so the heavens will punish you." Can you be convicted? ”
King Qi shouted, "Please forgive the gods for the sins of ignorance." ”
Liu Xiwei walked two steps on his knees and said: "My father is the king of a country, if there is a mistake, it is tantamount to putting the people of my Qi country in dire straits." Xi Wei is unscrupulous, and he is willing to bear all the punishments for his father. ”
Qin Fei pretended to stroke his beard and said: "Thinking that King Qi loves the people like a son, governs martial arts, and Yingyang Jun is filial piety and benevolence, and understands righteousness, the god will reduce the punishment." Wait for yourself to do it in the future! After finishing speaking, he closed his eyes and fell backwards.
King Qi was helped up by Liu Xiwei in shock, although he had palpitations but his anger had calmed down, and he looked at Liu Xiwei's eyes with a little more praise. Liu Xiqiu glared fiercely at Qin Fei, who was supported by the guards, and gritted his teeth.
The opening ceremony of the field hunting ceremony continued, in addition to the routine particles, the king of Qi also specially thanked the mountain god and the deer god, and announced that the Qi country was not allowed to kill the deer within three years, and the violator was beheaded for the crime of bullying the king. Qin Fei and Xiang Chonghua returned to their tent before they breathed a long sigh of relief, and collapsed to the ground on all fours. The door curtain was lifted, Liu Xiwei quickly flashed in, and motioned for the two to be silent, and waited until the guards guarding outside issued all the safety codes before sighing, bowing deeply to Qin Fei, and saying, "Thank you, sir, for saving your life." ”
Qin Fei hurriedly replied: "You can't help it, this is a matter within the scope of your subordinates." Instead, the subordinates want to ask the king to forgive the subordinates for the rude sin just now. ”
Liu Xiwei grabbed his hand and said, "How dare Xiwei complain about Mr.? If it weren't for Mr. Hurry, Benjun would never have thought of turning over in his life. ”
Qin Fei said solemnly: "Please allow your subordinates to speak up." This time, the king was recommended to be in charge of the field hunting ceremony, but he was strongly opposed by the prince's forces? ”
Liu Xiwei was stunned for a moment, and said fiercely: "Benjun thought that the prince easily gave up this opportunity to make people disdain the field hunting ceremony, but I didn't expect him to have a premeditated plan. Ben-kun is really confused! ”
Qin Fei said: "Can Taibu and the prince be friends on weekdays?" ”
Liu Xiwei shook his head and said, "I have never heard that the two have had any dealings. Why is the gentleman so sure that Taibu was instructed by the prince? ”
Qin Fei said: "Don't hide it from your majesty, the reason why green fire will emerge from the jade basin is that the subordinates secretly sprinkled a kind of medicine powder into the basin when everyone was focusing on the sky. If Taibu really had a clear conscience, he would have asked for an inspection of the ashes in the basin. ”
Liu Xiwei clapped his hands and said, "He is afraid that if he examines the ashes, even the matter of smearing foreign objects on the turtle shell will be exposed, so he can only watch you redeem the scene." Benjun just casually mentioned that his father had hunted a white deer, but Mr. was able to respond to changes and dangers at will. Xiwei can get the help of you and Hua Zhuangshi, why worry about the great cause? ”
Qin Fei said: "The prince came prepared this time, and he will never give up easily." Your Majesty must strictly strengthen your defense. ”
Liu Xiwei nodded and said, "You guys have a good rest first, and then there will be a riding and archery competition in an hour." This gentleman is busy with inspections, and whether the Yingyang Monarch's Mansion can occupy the scenery depends entirely on you. ”
Xiang Chonghua and Qin Fei both saluted and sent Liu Xiwei away, and only after the guards withdrew did Xiang Chonghua say, "What did you throw into the brazier?" ”
Qin Fei said: "It is a kind of poison that was found from the people of Baihumen, I heard the master say that one of the poisons in this poison is obtained from the corpses that have been dead for a long time, and if it is thrown into the fire, it will appear like a ghost fire." ”
Xiang Chonghua smiled: "Did you hide all the antidotes and poisons on your body?" ”
Qin Fei said with a smile: "The so-called poison is just a biased medicinal nature, in fact, there are not a few. However, the combination of these biased medicinal properties and the attribution of the scriptures have made the types of poisons ever-changing. As long as it is applied flexibly, the same medicine can cure many diseases and detoxify several kinds of poisons. For example, Huoxiang can only relieve heat in the eyes of others, but according to its pungent and warm taste and aromatic turbidity characteristics, it is also effective for diseases that do not suffer from heat stroke but are damp and turbid, abdominal pain and diarrhea. Although I don't have much medicine with me, I can flexibly use the smell to detoxify the scriptures and adapt to the situation. But this time it was a fluke. If I hadn't met those White Tiger Gate people, I would have been helpless. ”
Xiang Chonghua said: "Since you want to pretend to be a ghost, why don't you just say that you can resolve all the ominousness, wouldn't King Qi be happier in that case?" ”
Qin Fei put away his smile and said, "Because I think the prince must still have a big move." In case something goes wrong at that time, as long as King Qi's life can be saved, Yingyang Jun can push everything to the divine punishment. ”
Xiang Chonghua said: "Chu Mengze blocked and cleared the field a month before the field hunting conference was held, and the person in charge of guarding it was either King Qi's personal guards or the elite forces in Yingyang Jun's mansion, and the troops brought by the participants were also strictly limited. How can it be so easy? ”
Qin Fei said: "Just because it doesn't seem to have a chance to make a move, once something goes wrong, all the suspicions will point to Yingyangjun." What's more, in order to satisfy King Qi's personality of admiring vanity and greedy for enjoyment, Yingyang Jun paid most of his attention to the comfort and decency of pomp and living. With one increase and one decrease, the security guards are much worse. ”
Xiang Chonghua said: "What kind of martial arts is that?" I'm going to help with the patrols! ”
Qin Fei grabbed him and said, "When it comes to being familiar with Chu Mengze and the Qi army, you are not even as good as the most ordinary soldier, what's the use of going?" Moreover, the vast majority of the elites of the Yingyang Monarch's Mansion are now bound to participate in the guard patrol, and there are very few who can fight for the Yingyang Monarch's Mansion and win honors. Even if you don't care if you get attention or not, will Yingyangjun be willing to be snatched away by the prince? The reason why he has been favoring you these days is at least half of the reason that he wants you to represent the Yingyang Monarch's Mansion and raise your eyebrows. If you sacrifice your strengths and weaknesses, you will only lose Yingyangjun's trust! ”
Xiang Chonghua paced back and forth, and finally stomped his feet and said, "Okay! I'm going to go and win those bunnies! ”
Qin Fei smiled: "That's right. The more intelligent people are in critical moments, the more they will do what they do best. Moreover, their purpose is also King Qi. As long as you follow King Qi at all times, you can not only show off the limelight, but also protect him better than anyone else. Wouldn't that kill two birds with one stone? ”
Xiang Chonghua patted Qin Fei and said happily: "Good boy, you really have you!" I'm going to see where the old man has gone! Lifting the curtain of the tent, he almost collided with Wei Qianxue.
Wei Qianxue said with a flushed face: "Brother Hua, King Qi will go to the riding shooting range to watch the game, and I will show you the way!" ”
Qin Fei asked casually, "Why didn't Xue'er come to us for half a day?" Could it be that he has taken a fancy to other young talents? ”
Wei Qianxue hurriedly waved her hand and said, "How come!" Xue'er just learned about the situation of the Shimoda Hunting Conference for the two eldest brothers. ”
Qin Fei smiled and nodded, silent.
The two followed Wei Qianxue to the arrow field. Listening to the rapid sound of drums, King Qi was dressed in an arrow suit painted in the shape of a dragon and was hugged to the high platform by the Praetorian Guards like the moon holding the moon, followed by Taibu and Qu Gong as the master of ceremonies.
Long live the crowd. Taibu first performed the ritual of worshipping the god of hunting.
Then, King Qi took a bow and arrow inlaid with gems and jade from his attendant, and shot three arrows into the sky, and Qu Gong announced the official start of the game.
Two rows of young warriors from the Yingyang Junfu rode horses from the east and west sides of the field to trot in, the east side of the red horse, the west side of the black horse, the red horse queue first accelerated to the center of the field, bent the bow and arrows, and shot at the arrow target in unison, all the arrows were inserted into the right side of the red heart, the black horse team followed closely, and nine sharp arrows were shot into the left side of the red heart, and the red heart of the arrow target on the field was tightly sandwiched in the middle by the two arrows of the left and right symmetry, in order to show the meaning of throwing bricks and attracting jade, and it showed a higher archery skill than the straight heart.
Everyone immediately burst into warm applause, and King Qi also applauded. Qu Gong ordered the guards to give one of the three arrows shot by King Qi to the Yingyang Monarch's Mansion and read the reward aloud.
Qin Fei and Wei Qianxue praised repeatedly, and Xiang Chonghua was even more eager to try.
Liu Xi snorted coldly nonchalantly, turned his head and whispered something to Da Sima. Representatives of the various family mansions entered the game one after another, and after the arrow target was filled with arrows, Qu Gong ordered a break and changed the arrow target. The scores of the Prince's Mansion and the Yingyang Monarch's Mansion were evenly divided, and two of the three arrows shot by King Qi were not rewarded, and both sides were silent on the surface, but they both felt pressure.
At the beginning of the second game, the Prince's Mansion was a blockbuster, hitting five hearts in a row, but was soon caught up by Yingyang Junfu. The samurai generals who loved to ride and shoot were swelled, and the Wenchen began to yawn. King Qi leaned on the seat covered with tiger skin, eating fresh fruits, and began to chat with Qu Gong without a word. Da Sima whispered a few words to Liu Xiqiu, and Liu Xiqiu beckoned and called a guard.
In the center of the arena there was a new arrow target, and in the sand, a snow-white horse appeared on the field, and the samurai on horseback wore snow-white arrow suits, and stood on the horse's back with his hands on his chest.
Wen Chen, who was dozing off, immediately came to his senses when he saw such a novel way of appearance, and cheered. King Qi also sat up straight.
Wei Qianxue said: "This warrior seems to be playing for the first time, what do they want to do?" After a pause, he muttered, "Why does this warrior's figure look familiar?" ”
Qin Fei glanced at King Qi, whose eyes were shining, and frowned, "Attracting the attention of the king in this field hunting conference is the most important thing, and the three golden arrows he shot are undoubtedly much more important than the score result. But the king seems to just like novel gimmicks, and the prince must have seen this in advance, so he secretly prepared such a secret weapon. After a boring competition, the novel performance will be more attractive. Now that the game is coming to an end, but neither of the two golden arrows has been given, if King Qi is happy, it is entirely possible to give all the golden arrows to this warrior. It's hateful that my Yingyang Junfu focused on the score, and completely suffered a big loss, and was preempted by others, which is not good. ”
I saw the samurai controlling the horse with his feet, doing fancy movements while circling the field, and the ministers cheered continuously, and their voices were almost hoarse. Wu Chen was dismissive of these flashy performances, but because of the crown prince, he could only remain silent.
The samurai stood on his horse and marched into the middle of the field, and without waiting for the horse's hooves to slow down, he drew his bow and shot arrows, and all nine arrows hit the bull's-eye. King Qi stood up and applauded, and Duke Qu had already turned his head sideways to the guards and ordered to take the golden arrow.
The samurai triumphantly turned over and dismounted, and led his horse towards the high platform. A puff of dust suddenly rose from the east side of the field, Xiang Chonghua galloped his horse, and as soon as the horse's hooves landed in the center of the field, he jumped up from the horse's back, shot an arrow in the air and landed steadily on the horse's back, and then hooked the saddle with both feet, and flipped over and shot another arrow under the horse's belly. The position of his horse was already more than five hundred paces away from the arrow target, which was several times that of the samurai just now, which showed that his strength was outstanding.
The generals also applauded. Liu Xixuan gritted his teeth, eager to break Xiang Chonghua's body into pieces.
Xiang Chonghua had already shot eight arrows in the blink of an eye, each arrow not only hit the red heart but also had a different posture, or turned to the back, or one foot immediately. He suddenly whistled and stopped at the last target. The boiling arena immediately fell silent to see how he would shoot the final target. Xiang Chonghua took out three arrows and sandwiched them between his fingers, leading to a series of bowstrings, and the arrows shot towards the red heart like a moon-by-moon, only to hear the three sounds of "Duo Duo Duo", and the three arrows were inserted into the red heart end to end, and the arrows that the warrior shot at the red heart were squeezed out.
The whole audience was thunderous and enduring. King Qi personally took a golden arrow from Qu Gong and threw it at Xiang Chonghua. Xiang Chonghua rolled the saddle and got off the horse to thank him. Two of the three golden arrows have fallen into Yingyang Jun's Mansion, and even if the third one is taken away by the Prince's Mansion, Yingyang Jun has already taken over the scenery.
Liu Xiwei smiled and nodded at Xiang Chonghua, and everyone in Yingyang Junfu was overjoyed and gave Xiang Chonghua a thumbs up. Liu Xixuan glared at Xiang Chonghua fiercely, his fingers clenched tightly on the saber, eager to face Xiang Chonghua sharply. The big Sima on the side reached out again and again to pull his sleeve, and whispered to dissuade and comfort, and after whispering, Liu Xixuan suddenly called the warrior just now and commanded in a low voice.
Qu Gong waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet and announced the results of the competition. Liu Xiwei was groomed with a spring breeze on his face, ready to come forward to listen and appreciate. Unexpectedly, the warrior just now got back on his horse, ran all the way to Xiang Chonghua and said in a loud voice: "My prince asks you, do you have the courage to compete with me again?" ”
