Chapter Twenty-Five: The First Harvest
Chapter 25 is the beginning of the harvest
Changsun Sheng was the organizer of this hunt, and his tent was located in the northernmost part of the camp, consisting of more than 20 tents.
The two of them flashed with swords, shouting endlessly, the eldest grandson Wuji is ten years old this year, more than a year older than Li Shimin, but his figure is as tall as Li Shimin, and his swordsmanship is slightly inferior to Li Shimin.
Yang Yuanqing, Pei Xingyan and Li Xiaogong stood aside to watch the sword competition between Li Shimin and Changsun Wuji, the three of them are all strong martial arts people, and they couldn't help but shake their heads at Li Shimin and Changsun Wuji's swordsmanship, although the martial arts of both of them were taught by Changsun Sheng, but it was obvious that neither of them was a material for practicing martial arts, Li Shimin was slightly better, and Changsun Wuji was a scholar dancing sword, less than ten rounds, Changsun Wuji was already a little overwhelmed.
"General Changsun's martial arts are also one of the top masters in the world, how can his two apprentices be so poor?" Pei Xingyan frowned and said, he is a straightforward person, and he can't help but say something in his heart.
Li Xiaogong smiled and said: "Shimin is good at riding, his archery skills are clever, General Changsun praised him as an all-rounder in civil and military affairs, as for Wuji, practicing martial arts is just to strengthen his body, he is the material for learning literature." ”
Yang Yuanqing also said lightly on the side: "The strength of these two people is not in martial arts, the two of them, one is handsome, the other is a talent, and those who really practice martial arts will be driven by them." ”
"Yuan Qing's gaze is very unique!"
There was a laugh behind him, Yang Yuanqing turned around, only to see Li Mi holding a book in his hand and slowly stepped forward, he arched his hand to Yang Yuanqing, Yang Yuanqing also bowed to him slightly, the two of them didn't go much, today was just the second time they met, but Li Mi had a very close relationship with Yang Yuanqing's father, Yang Xuangan.
"I don't know what basis Yuan Qing has for saying that one of them is handsome and the other is a prime minister?"
Yang Yuanqing smiled slightly: "The children of the great name, those who are willing to work hard, are not generals, and the Dharma master brother thinks they will be mediocre people?" ”
Yang Yuanqing's words were extremely vague and groundless, Li Mi also laughed, his eyes were full of disbelief, and he asked again: "Then what does General Yang think of me in the future?" Is it possible? ”
Yang Yuanqing shook his head, "Brother Dharma is extraordinary, xiōng has the ambition to swallow heaven and earth, and he can be a famous minister in the prosperous era, and if he is in the luàn world, he will be a generation of heroes." 《”
Li Mi's face changed, Yang Yuanqing's words hit his heart, he also thought that what Yang Guang did, the world would be big sooner or later, so he closed his mén to study, waiting for the time, this is the secret of his heart, never told anyone, not even Yang Xuangan, but was pierced by Yang Xuangan's son, which made him feel frightened for a while, he laughed dryly, "Yuanqing's falsehood, not enough to believe, not enough to believe!" ”
He turned around and walked away, and his disdainful laughter was heard in the distance, Yang Yuanqing shook his head secretly, he thought that only he had the foresight, but last night Yang Zhao told him that he was worried that the world would be great, and he realized that what Yang Zhao could think of, many talented people could also think of, and this Li Mi must also have some kind of consciousness.
At this time, Yang Yuanqing suddenly felt that his hand was held by a soft little hand, and as soon as he lowered his head, he found that a little lady ran next to him at some point, who was five or six years old, combing her double horns, looking pink, very cute, she was engrossed in watching Li Shimin and the eldest grandson Wuji's sword competition.
"Who is this little lady?" Yang Yuanqing was stunned for a moment.
Xiao Niang suddenly frowned, "These two people are ugly to death!" ”
She pulled Yang Yuanqing, and pointed her little hand to the front, then Li Xiuning was making a move with Li Mi's younger brother Wang Bo.
"Brother Yuanqing, let's go see Sister Xiuning's sword competition!"
Yang Yuanqing squatted down and smiled at her, "What's your name?" How did you know me? ”
The little lady took a step back timidly, "It's my father who asked me to call you Brother Yuanqing." ”
At this time, Changsun Sheng walked over with a smile, "Yuanqing, this is my little NV Wuji, you haven't seen it yet!" ”
Changsun Sheng stepped forward, held NV in his arms, and smiled at Yang Yuanqing: "Do you remember the year you joined the army?" I told you, I want to have another little NV, but after two years, I will have her, and you can call her the nickname Guanyin. ”
Yang Yuanqing couldn't help laughing, it turned out that this little lady was the eldest grandson queen in history, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Li Shimin, the eldest grandson Wujian should have married Li Shimin later.
Changsun Sheng loved his young NV abnormally, he kissed his little face, and said to Yang Yuanqing: "Go and prepare!" Immediately the hunt began. (《7*”
"Daddy, I'm going with you too." The eldest grandson Wujian grabbed his father's beard and shouted.
Changsun Sheng was helpless against this baby NV, so he had to agree, "I really can't help you, I won't take you out if I knew it." ”
The eldest grandson Wujian grinned, but made a grimace at Yang Yuanqing, Yang Yuanqing shook his head and smiled, turned around and left.
Changsun Sheng shouted to everyone again, "Don't compete anymore, go pack your things and get ready to hunt!" ”
The crowd cheered and ran excitedly to their tents.
......
Yang Yuanqing and Pei Xingyan urged the horse to return to their camp, but they saw Xiahou Yan sneakily probing his brain beside his tent, so he smiled and said: "Brother Xiahou, the hunt will start soon, what are you doing here?" ”
Xiahou Yan was peeking at Pei Minqiu's camp, and suddenly Yang Yuanqing's voice came from behind him, which immediately startled him, and he hurriedly waved his hand, "It's nothing?" I'm just taking a casual look! ”
He turned the horse's head and galloped away, Yang Yuanqing saw that on the other side of his tent, only Pei Minqiu was drying máo blankets outside the tent, and Pei Xi'er and Green Tea were in the tent, this Xiahou Yan was obviously peeking at Pei Minqiu, he couldn't help but look back at this person's back, his eyes gradually narrowed.
He pointed at Xiahou Yan's back with a horsewhip and asked Pei Xingyan: "Do you know this person's conduct?" ”
Pei Xingyan snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "A newly rising powerful man, who doesn't know about it in the capital?" This person will do whatever it takes to achieve his goal, and Yuan Qing should pay attention to him. ”
Pei Xingyan's hunting this time is actually Pei Ju's arrangement, the task is to protect the two younger sisters, the Pei family has strict rules, how can the unmarried nv son of the family be allowed to hunt with other men at will, and it will be humiliating if it is passed out, so Pei Ju specially arranged Pei Xingyan to accompany him, which became Pei Xingyan taking his two sisters out hunting, so that others had nothing to say.
Although the head of the family did not tell him about Yuanqing and his sister Minqiu, Pei Xingyan was also a smart person, he saw early in the morning that Minqiu liked Yang Yuanqing, and he also gave him pancakes, although she kept saying that she was giving her lunch, but on the way she gave Yang Yuanqing all breakfast, and the happy smile on Minqiu's face, Pei Xingyan saw it in his eyes.
Of course, he hoped that his clan sister could marry a hero like Yang Yuanqing, and he also understood the heavy responsibility given to him by the head of the family, Jiāo, and he would never tolerate Xiahou Yan's idea of beating his sister, whether it was Minqiu or Xi'er.
Pei Minqiu was drying a few pieces of máo blankets that were a little moldy, when she heard the sound of horses' hooves behind her, and when she turned around, she saw that it was Yang Yuanqing and her brother Pei Xingyan who were back, she hurriedly smiled and asked, "Are you going to hunt?" ”
Yang Yuanqing nodded and smiled: "Do you want to go with us?" ”
"May I?"
Pei Minqiu was stunned, she knew that hunting was not a trip, galloping on horseback, chasing prey, she could only ride slowly, where could she keep up with the team, she would become a burden to everyone.
"I'm still staying at camp!" Pei Minqiu whispered.
"Let's go together! Go and experience the feeling of hunting, with me by your side, it will be fine. ”
"Minqiu, go ahead!" Pei Xingyan was also agitating on the side.
Pei Minqiu's eyes lù out of the god of anticipation, when in the hometown, the elders sometimes go out to hunt, but they are never allowed to participate, they have to guess behind the back of the hunting jīng Cai, in fact, she is very eager to feel it in person, especially Yang Yuanqing is willing to take her, her heart is full of expectations.
"I'm going to call Xi'er!"
She happily ran to the tent, Yang Yuanqing and Pei Xingyan also went back to their tents, took bows and arrows and weapons, he estimated that Pei Xi'er and Green Tea would not go, so he ordered three of his subordinates to stay and protect them.
Walking out of the tent, Pei Minqiu also came out of the tent with a gloomy face.
"Isn't she going?"
Pei Minqiu shook her head, Xi'er's attitude towards her was very cold just now, which made her feel a little sad in her heart, and she sighed lowly.
"Minqiu, are you still coming with me?" Yang Yuanqing asked again.
Pei Minqiu raised her head and saw Yang Yuanqing looking at her expectantly, she bit her mouth, her eyes flashed with jewel-like brilliance, "I'll go with you!" ”
Yang Yuanqing was overjoyed, immediately brought the horse over, and rode all the way, Pei Minqiu gradually became a little proficient, this time, she didn't need Yang Yuanqing's help, she turned over directly on the horse.
'Woo-' There was a trumpet of hunting in the distance, and the children of the various camps and families mounted their horses one after another, while the children of the NV stayed in the camp, and some of the family members stayed behind to protect them.
The trumpets sounded, the hounds roared, and the brigade of hunters galloped away into the dense forest on horseback.
......
"General Yang, I'd better go back!"
Pei Minqiu was not galloping fast, and fell to the end, she was already a big step behind the team, and she felt that she had become a burden to Yang Yuanqing.
Pei Xingyan had already followed the team away, only Yang Yuanqing accompanied her unhurriedly with a few subordinates, where was this hunting, it was clearly a trip, which made her ashamed, and she realized that she could not participate in the hunting.
Yang Yuanqing smiled slightly: "These people are all laymen hunting, like them are running to hunt, the prey has already been scared away by them, I am the expert in hunting, I don't believe it in the end, I have the most prey." ”
As soon as the words fell, Yang Yuanqing suddenly became solemn, he shushed his voice, waved his hand, ordered everyone to stop, and slowly chōu out an iron arrow, stretching his bow and taking the arrow.
Pei Minqiu also became nervous, she knew that it must be Yang Yuanqing who had discovered the prey, her eyes widened, she covered her mouth and looked around, they had already entered the forest, it was dark all around, and she faintly heard a rustling sound.
Yang Yuanqing opened his bow and sent an arrow, the arrow was strong, and he went to the dark depths eighty steps away, only to hear a terrible howl, and a huge boar rushed towards them like crazy, with Yang Yuanqing's iron arrow on his body, and all his subordinates were taken aback, and they released their arrows, but the bamboo arrows did not wear the skin of the wild boar.
Seeing that the wild boar was about to rush like crazy, Pei Minqiu's mount screamed in shock, and raised its front hooves, which made Pei Minqiu scream in fright, but Yang Yuanqing was not in a hurry, and chōu took out an iron arrow, just when the wild boar was still twenty steps away from them, an arrow shè came out, and this arrow shè pierced the boar's head, and the wild boar screamed miserably, and fell down ten steps away from them.
All the iron guards cheered and gathered around, and Yang Dalang smiled in surprise: "General, this wild boar is at least two hundred and fifty catties, it's rare!" ”
Yang Yuanqing turned back to Pei Minqiu and smiled: "This wild boar was given to you." ”
Pei Minqiu gave him a blank look, and said coquettishly: "What do I want you to do with this wild boar?" ”
