Meng Xilan didn't know the meaning of his smile at first, but when she was about to pull the bowstring, she realized that she couldn't pull it at all. This longbow was tailor-made for Zhou Youlin by the Military Industry Department, and it was completely different from the wooden bow they used when they occasionally practiced, and the weight alone was several times different.

Meng Xilan took a deep breath and exerted her strength again, but the bowstring still did not move.

Zhou Youlin looked at it with his arms folded beside him, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he was not in a hurry to step forward.

Meng Xilan frowned slightly, and was about to put down the longbow, but heard Zhou Youwen say behind her: "Fourth brother, you went over to help." ”

Meng Xilan was displeased, Zhou Youlin stepped forward at the right time, reached out to support her shoulder, she instinctively struggled, and a voice sounded in her ears: "So many people are watching, you should give me a face." ”

His hand was very strong, Meng Xilan's feet moved, and he stood forward again.

Zhou Youlin held her shoulder with one hand and the longbow with the other, and only reached out to hold her hand after she was in a correct position.

Her fingertips moved uneasily, feeling him get closer and closer to her, his breath in her ears and cheeks.

Zhou Youlin's eyes stared at the bull's-eye, and the palm holding Meng Xilan began to exert force little by little, and his movement of pulling the bow was extremely slow, extremely slow, as if he was deliberately trying to make Meng Xilan uncomfortable, but the person in front of him just didn't move, but he could almost hear his pounding heartbeat, and his breathing was a little chaotic.

At this time, all the eyes around were fixed on the two of them, either surprised, dissatisfied, or thoughtful.

The red feather arrow "swished" out, and it was still in the heart, but it was a few points off the arrow just now.

Meng Xilan's eyes flashed, and she hurriedly distanced herself from Zhou Youlin and walked back to Zhou Youning's side.

Zhou Youlin is ranked third, and he is hitting the bull's-eye again. In this way, there is no winner or loser.

Zhou Shixian rode a black high-headed horse, taking the lead and walking in the front. The princes followed, and many military ministers followed.

Meng Xiran deliberately stayed until the end, brought two jujube red horses, looked at Meng Xilan and Zhou Youning, grabbed the reins of the horse with one hand, stretched out the other hand and said, "Come, Weichen helps the princess get on the horse." ”

While speaking, a little eunuch had already leaned over and knelt on the ground, using his body as a ready-made stool for his master.

Zhou Youning's face was slightly red, holding his hand, lifting his skirt and turning over on the horse, sitting firmly.

Meng Xilan didn't let Gao Fuli kneel on the ground, held the reins with one hand, lifted the skirt with the other, and said to her brother Meng Xiran: "Second brother, you push me back." ”

Meng Xiran pushed her onto the horse, frowned with some concern, and said, "The road in the forest is not easy to walk, you have to be careful." ”

Meng Xilan clenched the reins and nodded, "I'm just riding a horse, and I won't go to the front to join in with them." ”

When Meng Xiran heard her say this, she was relieved and rode towards the team.

There was a burst of dust, Meng Xilan turned the horse's head a little evasively, looked at the path on the other side, and said, "Princess, I heard that there is a small river at the foot of the mountain over there, let's go over and take a look, okay?" ”

Zhou Youning shook his head: "Sister, I want to go hunting with my brothers." It's hard for me to leave the palace once, and I don't want to go back like this......"

Meng Xilan didn't stop her when she heard this, her personality is to love to join in the fun, it is estimated that she is already excited at this time. Meng Xilan nodded, and once again told the accompanying palace maids and guards that they must not leave an inch if they protect the princess.

Everyone was immersed in the excitement of horse hunting, only Meng Xilan wanted to find a place for herself to relax, she came to the river, the horse saw the water, and was always reluctant to get close.

Meng Xilan simply jumped off the horse, stroked the horse's mane, and let it eat grass and wander around on its own.

The clear blue sky, the clear river, and the lush green mountains can't help but make people feel comfortable looking at it. Meng Xilan found a stone and sat down on a wool cushion.

There is such a good scenery that can be enjoyed, why doesn't anyone notice it? It's just that I'm only interested in the killings that you chase after me.

Zhu Lu and Zhu Qing brought refreshments in a timely manner, and when they saw her closing her eyes alone, they couldn't help but smile and said, "The master can finally get out today, and he can be at ease alone." ”

Meng Xilan opened her eyes when she heard this, sighed slightly and said, "You guys also sit down together, it's rare not to be detained in the palace, let's all hide together." ”

Zhulu and Zhuqing looked at each other and smiled, and quickly nodded yes.

Gao Fuli was idle, squatting by the river for a long time, and suddenly got up and said, "Master, there are fish in this river!" ”

Meng Xilan smiled slightly: "Okay, then I'll order you to catch the fish......"

Before she could finish her words, Gao Fuli dragged her shoes and socks, pulled up her trouser legs, and couldn't wait to wade into the water.

At this moment, the sun was just right, shining on the surface of the river, Gao Fuli stretched out his hands and touched the water, his body swayed, and he looked very frizzy.

Seeing this, Zhulu and Zhuqing were also interested, and they walked to the river one after another, bowing their heads to pick up beautiful pebbles.

Meng Xilan closed her eyes deeply, enjoying this rare comfortable time.

I don't know how long it took, a soft "sizzle" suddenly flashed in my ears, disturbing Meng Xilan's peace at the moment.

She thought that the insects were flying around, and slowly opened her eyes to see that Zhulu Zhuqing had already gone into the distance, as for Gao Fuli, who was still groping in the knee-high river with his waist, it seemed that he had gained nothing.

Nothing is out of the ordinary.

Meng Xilan slowly stood up, stretched out her arms, and stretched her waist. Who knows, there was another "sizzle" in her ears, Meng Xilan obviously felt that something was hurrying past her, and she hurriedly looked down, and suddenly found that there were two arrows stuck in the ground, and the arrows were buried in the soil.

Meng Xilan was shocked in her heart, thinking that there was an assassin raid, and she was busy turning around to call people, but she saw a white horse as white as snow standing not far away, and the person who was immediately drawing her bow and aiming was undoubtedly Zhou Youlin.

He...... How is it here?

The panic on Meng Xilan's face flashed, and she looked at him in disbelief, her expression quickly becoming stiff and deep.

Zhou Youlin's lips outlined a cruel arc, his eyes locked tightly on the target in front of him, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes, as if she was not Meng Xilan, just a little prey that he had coveted for a long time.

Meng Xilan's eyelids jumped suddenly. She didn't like Zhou Youlin's eyes now, cold, but with a kind of arrogant frivolity, strange and dangerous.

She took a deep breath and took a slow step forward. Just in an instant, Zhou Youlin let go of his left hand again and shot another arrow at her feet.

Meng Xilan was shocked in her heart, looking at the long arrow that was only half an inch away from her, and had to stop her steps.

She looked up at Zhou Youlin again, pursed her lips and said nothing, only looking at him, as if looking at a stranger.

Zhou Youlin slowly lowered his longbow and noticed the indifference condensed in Meng Xilan's eyes.

It's weird...... He couldn't see the slightest fear in her eyes. If it were someone else, I am afraid that I would have been scared and my legs would have weakened.

It's weird...... The more she was afraid, the more he wanted her to be afraid...... It's better than her ignoring him.

Zhou Youlin's mind sank little by little. He jumped off his horse lightly, hung his longbow on his horse, and walked towards Meng Xilan with his empty hands.

Meng Xilan tightened her ten fingers and clenched them into fists hard, for fear that she would not be able to help but slap him directly.

If this was just a joke, he went too far today!

The cloak behind Zhou Youlin was as red as fire, rising with the wind, which was very dazzling.

Meng Xilan looked at him and laughed angrily, curled the corners of her mouth and said, "What does this mean, prince?" ”

Zhou Youlin pursed his lips and said quietly: "This is the paddock, of course this king is hunting." ”

"Maniac...... You're crazy! Meng Xilan was enraged by his answer, changed her usual gentleness, and reprimanded in a low voice. Don't play such jokes with me, it's too low-level! ”

Zhou Youlin smiled faintly again: "Isn't this king crazy?" After speaking, his gaze was completely glued to Meng Xilan's face, and he approached slightly and said, "For you, this king is really going crazy!" ”

He didn't know that he was ridiculous, and pestering her again and again like this was both childish and ridiculous, as if he couldn't live without her by his side...... But he just couldn't control himself, and there was an inexplicable force in his heart that prompted him to make mistakes again and again.

Meng Xilan Huo Ran turned her face away, not liking him to look at herself like this: "I said, I don't want to have anything to do with you anymore." Zhou Youlin, you made too much trouble today. ”

The more she ducked, the closer he became, and finally clamped her jaw to keep her from moving.

Meng Xilan snorted lightly, her chin was pinched by him, her long eyelashes trembled, and the uneasiness in her eyes was hidden: "Zhou Youlin, you hurt me!" Do you have to bully me like that? What exactly am I doing wrong? ”

When Zhou Youlin heard this, his fingers instantly loosened, but he still didn't let her go, his forehead was against the tip of her nose, suppressing her breathing, and said, "Do you know? I also feel pain, my heart hurts...... The thought of sending you to another man makes me feel like I'm going crazy. ”

The war in the northwest has come to an end, and the father and son of the Chu family are about to return to Beijing to resume their lives, Zhou Youlin knows very well in his heart that once Chu Jingchuan returns, he will immediately ask his father to let him and Meng Xilan marry early.

Zhu Lu and Zhu Qing in the distance finally noticed the abnormality here, and looked at the two people standing opposite each other, with movements in their hands, they couldn't help but be slightly startled, and hurriedly ran over.

When Meng Xilan saw them coming, she was busy and struggled, glared at Zhou Youlin and said, "Don't touch me, otherwise, I will ......" Her implicit threatening words, before she could say it, she was shocked by Zhou Youlin's gloomy gaze, and subconsciously turned her face away. Unexpectedly, his snort got closer and closer, and just as she wanted to scream, there was a warm and cool thing, gently touching her cheek, which was soft and trembling to the touch, and it was clearly ......

Meng Xilan was as if she had been struck by lightning, her whole person froze in place, and her brain went blank in an instant.
