Chapter 459: Wanting to Cover Up
After returning to the tent, breakfast had been obtained, and Qian Niang remembered that the master had eaten a little little yesterday, so she got up early in the morning and spent two hours to make a pleasing breakfast. Most of the breakfast ingredients are light and appetizing, and they make Zhou Heyue salivate as soon as they are served.
"Eldest sister, for some reason, I always feel that Princess Nansheng has something hidden in her heart." During the meal, Zhou Heyue did not gobble up, remembering the scene when he greeted Concubine Su and others in the morning, Zhou Heyue couldn't help but say: "On the way back, what did Princess Nansheng say?" ”
At that time, she was taken by Onyx and did not hear the conversation between the two, but it was true that the eldest sister's face was not good-looking at that time.
"Eat well, hunt with me tomorrow, and don't leave a single step."
After speaking, Zhou Hexi stopped talking, and Zhou Heyue noticed the seriousness of the eldest sister, so he stopped talking, and repeatedly promised that he would be obedient tomorrow and not run around.
A meal was eaten quietly, in the evening, the men who went out to hunt returned with a full load, and the people had not yet returned to the camp, the news had already come that Emperor Yongchang had the most prey, followed by King Sheng.
However, in careful comparison, most of the prey that Emperor Yongchang fought were hares, wild birds, deer, etc., while the prey that Xiao Yu fought was basically a large animal, tall and ferocious, and ordinary people did not dare to release arrows easily.
Emperor Yongchang Long Yan Dayue specially decreed that a large bonfire dinner would be held outside the camp tent tonight, and everyone must be present. The accompanying chefs began to deal with the prey as soon as they got it, in order to get these delicious game meat on the table quickly and well.
By nightfall, dozens of bonfires had lit up the night sky, and the whole pigs, whole sheep, and strings of hares and pheasants were raised high, and soon the outermost layer became smooth and hard, looking extremely attractive. The oil dripping from the barbecue fell into the bonfire, and immediately made a crackling sound, Zhou Hexi looked at the fire, the meat, and felt that the originally silent night became fresh and smart.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhou Xiao took Zhou Hexing to talk to his two daughters, although Xiaozheng usually fought with his sister like a black corn, but this time he sat together and talked excitedly about the hunting ground, and Zhou Heyue listened with relish.
But as she spoke, the topic slowly returned to "barbecue", and Zhou Heyue was thinking about how much she could eat in her mouth about tonight's barbecue. Although there are many prey, there are more people, and only those nobles can eat with an open heart, and many people can touch a few pieces in their mouths.
Zhou Hexing immediately said: "With our eldest brother-in-law, are you still worried that you won't be able to eat the meat in your mouth?" ”
Then, he lowered his voice, leaned over to it, and muttered without knowing what to say, only to see Zhou Heyue laughing.
Seeing his younger brothers and sisters talking happily, unconsciously, a smile appeared on the corner of Zhou Hexi's mouth, Zhou Xiao shook his head helplessly, and continued to ask Zhou Hexi what he had done today, the process of greeting the nobles, and so on. After the eldest daughter answered one by one, he suddenly asked if he had seen Princess Longyu, and a certain woman was stunned for a while before shaking her head, "Isn't she specifically protecting Your Majesty?" Could it be ......"
"Yes, I didn't see her at the hunting ground today, so I thought she might be accompanying someone."
The father and daughter looked at each other, and they both read the alertness in each other's eyes.
Soon it was time to sit at the table, and the father and daughter couldn't say more, and before leaving, Zhou Xiao repeatedly told her to be careful in all matters.
……
The banquet is divided into two sessions, men and women are separated, one each, one, men and women love different game items, and the other is that men are drinking and drinking, the scene was once heroic, if the women were present, they could not let go and were afraid of accidentally bumping into the girls, so they simply separated.
This was Emperor Yongchang's idea, and the ministers drank wine and ate meat from the bottom of their hearts, and soon cheered again and again, and several ladies who listened to it pursed their lips and laughed. His Majesty was happy, and they were naturally happy.
Compared with that side, the banquet on the women's side is much quieter, at most they gather in twos and threes to whisper something, or comment on the food on the table, etc.
From the entrance to the opening, Zhou Hexi didn't see Princess Longyu, and the thought in his heart gradually floated, Princess Longyu was not in the hunting ground nine times out of ten, otherwise, on an occasion like this, it would be impossible not to show her face. Could it be that you have returned to Beijing? This time, just to escort the royal driver to this place safely?
Zhou Hexi quietly arranged Onyx and asked her to inform Li Ren to check it, but Onyx looked very unhappy when she came back, and she whispered to Zhou Hexi in private that Li Ren refuted the order, only saying that his top priority now is to protect the safety of his master, and he can't leave casually.
Zhou Hexi: "......"
It seems that things have really come to a serious point.
Otherwise, it was impossible for Li Ren not to listen to her dispatch, earlier, he had already indicated that Xiao Yu would send him and the group of secret guards to her, and she would dispatch them. At this time, the people who can make Li Ren stand still and only guard her are no one else except Xiao Yu.
"Cousin Hexi, I respect you!"
was thinking a lot, Princess Nansheng came with a glass of wine and a smile, maybe the sixth sense played a strong role, and every step the other party took, Zhou Hexi felt that the danger increased by a point.
She stood up quietly on her face, thanked her, a glass of wine in her stomach, Princess Nansheng wanted to have a second glass, and invited her to Xiliang as a guest in a cliché, Zhou Hexi didn't have time to refuse, the palace maid who was pouring wine suddenly had dark eyes, the dagger hidden in the cuff showed the tip, and the agate eyes were quick to step forward to subdue it, but she never thought that the palace maid was agile, and she was a practitioner at a glance.
Princess Nansheng almost tore her throat and shouted, "There are assassins! There are assassins!! ”
The scene was chaotic for a while, and it was difficult for Onyx and the palace maid to fight, and at this moment, another palace maid suddenly showed her dagger and stabbed straight at Zhou Hexi and Princess Nansheng.
At the last moment, Li Ren blocked in front of Zhou Hexi, and in the next moment, the dagger clearly pierced Princess Nansheng's shoulder......
"Ah!!h
Princess Nansheng fell to the ground in pain and convulsed, and Li Ren subdued the palace maid in two or two, but it was a step too late, and the palace maid had committed suicide by taking poison. There is also news from the Agate side, which is exactly the same as this side.
Emperor Yongchang got the letter, and hurriedly sent the forbidden army to surround the venue, and then, Emperor Yongchang came with a black face, and Long Yan was furious!
He held back for so long, and finally came out to relax, and he was not very happy to encounter such a ridiculous thing!
Are the Assassins so daring? Or did he deliberately give him the emperor's power?
Knowing that the injured person was not his wife and child, Emperor Yongchang breathed a sigh of relief.
However, when he heard that Princess Nansheng had been stabbed, his heart that he had just put down immediately rose to his throat.
The identity of the assassin was quickly verified, and the two palace maids were from the big clan, so the purpose was obvious, that is, to want the life of Princess Nansheng. However, the princess had a big life, did not hurt her internal organs, and picked up a life.
After dealing with all this, Emperor Yongchang breathed a sigh of relief again. After the whole camp was investigated, no one from the Da clan was found, and everyone's hearts were slowly put down, only Zhou and Xi looked at each other coldly.
Just now, the target of those two palace maids is definitely not Princess Nansheng, but her!
The knife was aimed at himself at the beginning, but later Li Ren suddenly disrupted the other party's rhythm and deviated.
But even so, there was no need to aim the dagger at Princess Nansheng again, and after hesitating for a while, he stabbed the other party, in Zhou Hexi's opinion, that knife, no matter how you look at it, is a little eager to cover up.
