Brother-in-law? Xiao Rui's eyes widened.

You've finally made someone else's small... Brother-in-law...

"Little Hou Ye, why do you say this?"

Xiao Rui glared at Zhang Lianchuan, just if you don't make it clear and return my innocence, I will kill you with my eyes.

Zhang Lianchuan flattered: "Brother-in-law, I know everything about you and my second sister, but my second sister said that she agreed to the marriage." ”

, Xiao Rui was a little confused, he only met once, and he didn't even touch his hands, so he agreed to the marriage? Where to start? The Zhang family is so eager to marry a daughter?

"Seventh brother, it turns out that you have already taken down the second miss of the Zhang family, and you have been hiding it." Xiao Yan said, "I despise you." ”

"His Royal Highness the Seventh is a first-class sister's kung fu, and I will definitely ask for advice in the future." Tian Boguang squeezed his eyebrows, and he really deserved his name.

Xiao Rui patted his forehead and said to Zhang Lianchuan in a righteous manner: "Little Marquis, there is no trace of the eight characters, don't scream, I'm fine, don't ruin your sister's reputation." ”

"Yes, brother-in-law." Zhang Lianchuan is well-behaved and obedient.

Xiao Rui didn't want to pay attention to him.

Actually, Zhang Lianchuan is not to blame for this.

When Zhang Jinfu asked Zhang Ruoxi how he felt about Xiao Rui, Zhang Ruoxi said "I don't hate it". And when Zhang Ruoxi's mother asked Zhang Jinfu, according to Zhang Jinfu's thinking, it was "like". And when Zhang Lianchuan asked his mother, according to his mother's thinking, it was "agreeing to the marriage"!

I don't hate - like - agree to the marriage.

Mom, you don't have to worry about my marriage anymore.

Mom, I'm no longer afraid that I'm single, the people who don't hate me are the ones who are willing to marry me.

The group left the city and headed for the hunting grounds in the western suburbs. It was a royal hunting ground, and it was forbidden for the common people to hunt, so it would not be disturbed.

Now it's spring, and it's time for animal coherence. During the Tomomo season, the animals are active and provide convenience for hunting.

"Brother Seven, let's compete! The four of them hunted together, to see whose arrows were fast, who shot less prey, who lost, and went to Cuiyun Tower to have dinner at night. Xiao Yan proposed.

Xiao Rui looked at Zhang Lianchuan and Tian Boguang and asked, "What do you two think?" ”

"I'm fine." Tian Boguang is full of confidence.

"Brother-in-law, don't worry, I will definitely help you, and we will win." Zhang Lianchuan said.

Xiao Rui quickly turned his head and ignored him.

"Since we all agree, let's get started!" Xiao Yan gave an order, and the four of them galloped at the same time.

The hunting grounds in the western suburbs are dominated by fields and hills, with green grass and lush woods, and hares, deer, wolves, and even tigers are stocked here every year.

Every autumn, the Xia Emperor will hold a hunting event, and the princes of the Kaifu will be proud of hunting fierce beasts, and will be rewarded by the Xia Emperor.

Although the Great Xia Kingdom is located in the plains, the spirit of martial arts has always continued.

The four rode deep into the hunting grounds, during which they found traces of rabbits and jackals, and rushed to shoot arrows with bows.

Zhang Lianchuan and Tian Boguang are worthy of being born in Jiangmen, and they use two-stone bows, and they can always shoot prey in front of Xiao Yan and Xiao Rui.

Half an hour later, the guards behind Zhang Lianchuan and Tian Boguang rode on horses, with a lot of prey tied to them, while Xiao Rui and Xiao Yan were empty.

"Seventh brother, it seems that the two of us are doomed. I'm young, and you've got to let me, so you're ready for dinner today. Xiao Yan said with a smile.

Without waiting for Xiao Rui to refute, Zhang Lianchuan said arrogantly: "My prey is half of my brother-in-law, so Your Highness the Nine, you are the one who lost." ”

Xiao Rui suddenly felt that Zhang Lianchuan was very pleasing to the eye.

Xiao Yan glared at Zhang Lianchuan angrily and roared: "Zhang Lianchuan, you actually ignore the ten-year friendship between you and me? ”

"My brother-in-law is more important than friendship." Zhang Lianchuan snorted.

Xiao Yan looked at Tian Boguang and said aggrievedly: "Boguang, what about you?" ”

"You're in for a treat." Tian Boguang found that Xiao Rui and Zhang Lianchuan were looking at him, their eyes were full of threat, and he immediately switched to the camp.

Xiao Yan only rolled his eyes, and suddenly, when he saw something, he immediately shouted, "Look, big worm!" ”

Xiao Rui and the three of them looked in the direction of his finger, and sure enough, a tiger flashed in the woods.

The four of them looked at each other and immediately rushed into the woods.

The guards who followed behind knew that the big insect was fierce, and they also took out their bows and crossbows and weapons to protect the four of them closely.

The four of them chased the big insect into the depths of the woods, and they didn't dare to get closer, so they shot bows and arrows to attack. The big insect has a flexible body, but it can't stand multiple bows and arrows fired at once, and it can count arrows in a moment.

The tiger was furious, pounced frantically, and in a moment it rushed forward.

"Your Highness, be careful!" The five guards were masters of the forbidden army, and immediately pulled out their knives and stepped forward, and the five surrounded the tiger.

Whoosh...

Xiao Rui and the four of them shot arrows again, and in the end, Zhang Lianchuan shot an arrow into the tiger's mouth, shot through the tiger's head, and got the final kill!

"Haha, kill a big worm, come here, find a car for me to transport back to the capital." Xiao Yan was even more excited than Zhang Lianchuan.

Observe the tiger up close, and even though it is dead, you can still feel the ferocity of the king of the forest.

Xiao Rui looked around and said, "Be on guard all around, be careful of big insects!" ”

"Yes, Your Highness!" The five guards searched separately to avoid a sudden attack by the big insects who were secretly ambushing, after all, the forest was still quite dense.

Xiao Yan opened the tiger's mouth and said, "Look, tiger teeth! It was so sharp and long that I had to pry it off and make a pendant. ”

"It's a pity that the tiger skin was pierced by an arrow and is incomplete, otherwise it can be given to Your Majesty. Didn't His Majesty say a few days ago that he wanted to replace the tiger skin in his study? Zhang Lianchuan regretted it, and then turned around: "Peel off the tiger skin, make a cloak, and give it to my brother-in-law." ”

Xiao Rui felt that Zhang Lianchuan was more pleasing to the eye.

"I want a tiger. Whip! Tian Boguang said.

"Huh?"

The three of them glared at him.

"I give it away, but I don't eat it." Tian Boguang was annoyed and ashamed.

Only then did the three of them retract their gazes.

"I wonder what it tastes like?" Tian Boguang touched his chin and said again.

Xiao Rui was about to propose whether he wanted to have a small barbecue at night, when a guard who was searching around suddenly ran back with a solemn face.

"Your Highness, Little Marquis, a corpse has been found ahead!" The guard said in a deep voice.

The four of them were startled, and Xiao Rui asked, "Corpse?" But bitten to death by a tiger? How many? Can you tell what the identity is? ”

The guard replied: "The subordinates have roughly checked, and there are about five corpses, a baby boy, a young woman, a young man, and an old couple, dressed in silk grosgrain, not like ordinary people. Although he was eaten by a tiger, the cause of death was not that the tiger bit him to death, but that he had recently dumped his body here. ”

The four of them looked at each other, also frightened.

"Take me!" Xiao Rui said.

When the group came to the scene of the body, they found that it was in a hidden pit in the bushes, which would not have been found at all if it had not been searched. After a long time, the corpse was eaten by the beast.

The corpse died in a tragic state, and was eaten by tigers, more like the Shura field.

Xiao Yan couldn't help it and vomited.

Xiao Rui endured retching, got closer, and asked the guards to check the body, but did not find anything to prove his identity, and the cause of death should be strangled to death.

"Seventh brother, what should I do?" Xiao Yan is young after all, and when he encounters this kind of thing for the first time, he is completely out of proportion.

Xiao Rui said: "Report to the official, although this is the boundary of Shangyuan County, it is estimated that the county order of Shangyuan County will not be solved, after all, the incident happened in the royal hunting ground, report to Ying Tianfu, he is responsible for all the murders in the jurisdiction of the capital, he can't solve it, and then report to the Criminal Department and Dali Temple is his business." ”

One of the guards immediately rushed into the city to handle the case.

Soon, the prefect of Ying Tianfu and a large number of yamen personnel arrived.
