Chapter 022: All-round talent in civil and military affairs
With sleeves and Rong Ruo, Huang Sanye rode into the paddock, only to feel that the grass in front of him was long and the warbler was flying, and the blue color was touching the sky, although it was autumn, on the thick meadow, all kinds of wildflowers were still thriving, swaggering and dotted on the grassland, like a colorful splendid velvet carpet, magnificently laid out.
Huai Sleeve took a deep breath and praised it sincerely: "It's so refreshing, it's so fragrant." ”
Huang Sanye glanced sideways at Huai Sleeve and said with a smile: "It is really appropriate to use the word 'incense' to describe the wind here!" Huai Gongzi is really eclectic in reading and talking! ”
Huai Sleeve heard him praise himself, waved his hand lightly and smiled. At this time, Rong Ruo took three quivers, handed one to Huang Sanye first, Huang Sanye handed it to Huai Sleeve, and asked with a smile: "Huai Gongzi is handsome and elegant, I don't know if you like to ride and shoot?" ”
Huai Sleeve smiled and took the quiver, hung it on the side of the saddle, and said: "In previous years, when I was at home, I accompanied Ama on a hunting trip, although my archery skills were not very exquisite, I just barely shot and played. ”
Huang Sanye listened to it and said with a smile: "This is very good, we all have to let go today, don't be stubborn, just be happy!" With that, he whipped his horse and rushed out first.
When Huai Sleeve heard this, he also felt quite thoughtful, smiled and raised his whip to catch up, Rong Ruo followed at the end, seeing Huai Sleeve smiling and happy, he was also very happy in his heart, but he didn't know why she ignored herself, in front of Huang Sanye, Rong Ruo was not easy to ask, so she had to hold back, feeling slightly depressed in her heart.
The three horses marched through a dense and uneven wood, and the flocks of hares, badgers, and other small beasts that were driven away by the disturbance were frightened and scurried in all directions. Huai sleeve sighed, the water and grass are abundant, and the beasts live in abundance, it is really a good place for hunting.
From time to time, the three of them opened their bows and arrows, only to hear the continuous thumping of the bowstring, and the prey that was shot fell to the ground. Rong Ruo had instructed the guards to follow behind to collect the prey, so the three of them only had to shoot, but they didn't have to look for the prey that was shot, which was very enjoyable.
"It's all small beasts here, it's not very interesting, let's go around that land and go to the denser forest, where those elk, roe deer and other good things are hiding!"
Rong Ruo smiled: "That's exactly what I mean." So saying, the three horses galloped for a while, skirting the reed-swamped waters, and toward the thicker woods behind, with the three of them running in front, followed by a few guards riding at a distance.
Huai Sleeve looked back at the guards, and saw the shirts with red backgrounds, and knew that these people were all Imperial Forest Army, and said secretly in his heart: "Rong Ruo's face is really big enough, and he can actually use the emperor's people in front of the emperor to serve, and that Huang Sanye seems to be accustomed to seeing these people, it seems that he really often goes in and out of the palace, and is used to seeing the world." ”
After a short time, the three of them came to the dense forest behind the water, looked into the forest with their sleeves, and saw that it was really different from the forest of Fangcai, in the depths of the forest, it was dark and swarthy, the branches and leaves covered the sky and the sun, and the artemisia grass was overgrown, and the grass was almost as high as the horse's belly.
"The forest here is dense, and there are many wild beasts, there are only three of us, and we can't be too far apart, in case we meet a larger beast, I am afraid that it will be dangerous to fall alone." Before entering the forest, Rong Ruo first admonished.
Huang Sanye nodded in approval.
Rong Ruo looked at Huai Sleeve's face, but when she saw Huai Sleeve looking around, she seemed to be in a very good mood, but she ignored him, as if he was just right, she didn't hear it at all.
Rong Ruo sighed in her heart, and she had to pay more attention to her for a while. Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard a "click" sound in my left ear. Rong Ruo's reaction was extremely alert, and even when he could distinguish the hoofing of a rare white-lipped deer.
When I looked sideways, I saw a male white-lipped deer with antler antlers like branches, and a few doe grazing leisurely. Rong Ruo was excited, and his hand had already quietly touched into the quiver.
At this time, the white-lipped deer seemed to see them too, and looked at this side with its ears pricked up in alarm. Rong Ruo knew that this kind of deer was extremely alert, and it would fly like a hoof at the slightest fright, and it was very difficult to catch.
Huang Sanye also saw these white-lipped deer, and also took out an arrow and put it on the bow.
Rong Ruo saw that the stag's fear was getting stronger, so he deliberately didn't look at it, secretly set up a bow and arrow behind his back, and turned around to shoot an arrow. Huai Sleeve only heard two "bang, bang" sounds in her ears, she had already seen Rong Ruo quietly set up the bow and arrow, but she didn't expect that Huang Sanye's arrow was also so fast.
However, the white-lipped deer reacted really quickly, only to hear the sound of the bowstring, and the body had already rushed out a few steps, Rong Ruo saw this scene, and hurriedly took another bow to shoot an arrow.
The last arrow was shot, hidden in the grass, Huang Sanye's previous arrow had missed, seeing Rong Ruo's arrow shot, he didn't react, he only felt sorry, and suddenly saw the tall stag suddenly fall, dragging his hind legs and struggling on the ground.
"Shot! Quick, catch that brute! Seeing this scene, Huang Sanye shouted excitedly.
Seeing that Rong Ruo had shot the deer, Huai Sleeve only smiled with his lips and did not raise his voice. Heart: Hmph! On weekdays, I look at Si Swenwen, and my archery skills are quite powerful.
Rong Ruo was naturally very happy in his heart, and couldn't help but turn around and quietly look at Huai Sleeve, and saw that Huai Sleeve was looking at him and smiling, so he pulled out a big smile at Huai Sleeve.
Seeing him smiling at himself, Huai Sleeve sank his pretty face, glanced at him, and moved to the side, and the depression in Chen Shi's heart suddenly subsided by half.
The guards who followed behind had already passed, trapping the deer and carrying it to him.
Huang Sanye looked at the deer carefully, and couldn't help but praise: "What a fat and healthy stag, I haven't shot anything like this for a long time, it seems that we have a good mouth today!" ”
Huai Sleeve also rode his horse to take a look, and sure enough, he saw that the stag was huge, like a foal, and couldn't help but say: "Venison is not very rare, this thing has grown so big, and the meat is afraid that it will also be elder." But the big antler on the top of the head is more precious. ”
Huang Sanye shook his head again and again, and explained with a smile: "What you said is an ordinary deer, this kind of deer, called white lips, is very rare, and sensitive and abnormal, it is difficult to catch, the usual deer can live for thirty or forty years, and this kind of deer lives for at least fifty or sixty years, this one looks at the tooth mouth, I'm afraid it's only ten years, it's tender!" ”
Huai Sleeve was stunned when he heard this, and Huang Sanye continued with a smile: "This white-lipped venison is a rare delicacy in the world, I guarantee that after you taste it, it will be hard to forget!" We are all blessed today! The words fell, and he cast a smile of approval to Rong Ruo.
There are guards to carry the deer down, he and a few people continue to go to the forest, there are many kinds of birds and beasts in the forest, the prey is very abundant, and today, Rong Ruo shooting hunting is particularly smooth, ordinary prey is naturally not a problem, even the extremely rare python roe deer also hunted two, almost noon, he has harvested a lot.
Huang Sanye looked at the two cherished python roe deer hanging on Rong Ruoma's back thighs, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, you are worthy of being a first-class guard with a knife in front of the emperor, and your shot is extraordinary, and it made me see your outstanding demeanor two years ago, when you were in the hunting competition!" ”
Rong Ruo hurriedly waved his hand and smiled: "The third master praised it falsely." ”
Huai Sleeve was quite surprised when he heard this, and thought: I saw him writing books and talking on weekdays, and he was familiar with literature and ink, but he only thought that he was a civil official, but he didn't expect that he was actually a first-class guard with a knife in front of the emperor, and he thought that his kung fu was indeed not weak, so he couldn't help but sigh secretly: I didn't expect that this nerd is still a civil and military cultivator!
