Chapter 113: Old Friends

De Shui Xuan's birthday banquet 100 gifts, to put it bluntly, is the 100 dishes made by the chef of De Shui Xuan for the birthday banquet.

If it is heard to people who don't understand the market, they will feel that "Lingjun" is stingy.

But today, the people who came to hunt with "Ling Jun" are all children of famous families in Yanjing, and it is impossible for them not to understand the value of this birthday banquet.

The market price is 10,000 gold.

Moreover, there is no market for it.

If any child of a family offers such a birthday banquet for his own family, it means that no matter whether this person was favored or not, later, at least before he does it again and is unbearable by the elders, he will be taken care of because he has saved such a face for the elders.

Yanjing's famous family, which one does not have many heirs?

Among these many heirs, who doesn't look forward to having a few more blue eyes from the elders in the family and a little more hope of inheriting the title?

"Third master, how can you win or lose this?"

Listening to Ling Jun's promise, the winner of the prize had a birthday banquet and a hundred gifts, and the children of the family present were all gearing up.

They came to join in the fun, just to take this opportunity to get acquainted with Ling Jun and pave the way for their future, they didn't dare to hope that they could become his confidants, but they never thought that there would be an unexpected joy.

"It's just a matter of how much you get."

Listening to people's confusion about the ruling of winning or losing, "Ling Jun" seemed to be quite surprised, and he was slightly stunned.

After a while, Xu felt that what he said was not detailed, so he added another sentence of "supplement", "In terms of quantity, the herbivorous beasts are doubled, and the carnivorous beasts are doubled." ”

Because Ling Jun didn't expect that someone would ask such a question before, he didn't mention to explain to the tea falcon first.

But at this time, in the face of someone asking questions, it is easy to be suspicious if they don't answer, so the tea falcon is in a hurry, and according to the rules of the hunting competition in Tianmen, he set a "different" ruling standard for the victory of this hunt.

The assassination of the Lord of the Heavenly Gate and the ambush of the savage beasts were as easy as a breeze for them.

Herbivores such as hares and deer, which move quickly and run away at sight, take a lot of time to pursue.

Therefore, in order to make the event fair and encourage the people in the gate to practice their hiding and pursuit skills diligently, the first generation of the Celestial Gate Master set such a rule, in the eyes of ordinary people, for the triennial Celestial Gate Hunting Competition.

The adjudication standards formulated by "Ling Jun", which can only be described as weird to ordinary people, made everyone present stunned.

I wanted to ask, but I didn't dare.

I didn't ask, and I wasn't sure if I had listened to him.

"The third master means that the wild mountains here, the situation is unknown, although the enclosure has been circled, but I dare not guarantee that there will be no danger, so we don't want to hunt beasts as an incentive, everyone wants to be happy, and it is good to hunt herbivores to decide the winner."

As soon as he came back, he heard "Ling Jun" say such an "amazing word", and he drove forward with a quick turn of mind, and explained the "good intentions" of "Ling Jun" to everyone present with a statement that sounded reasonable.

Anyway, I'm just polite to you, and I don't really want to give it.

muttered in his heart, and when he turned around, he rolled his eyes while he was bowing.

Zhu Shitong also came.

That, he is not the enemy of the sky.

He really wanted to be selfish for once, and found an opportunity to cut off the beast's head.

However, he can't.

He can't spoil the layout and plan of the third master of their family for his own selfish interests, and ruin the possibility of revenge for others.

"The paddock is ready, Third Master."

Driving the horse closer to Fifteen, the winter solstice pretended to be unintentional and patted Fifteen's left shoulder.

They have the same enemies, similar hatreds.

Therefore, he understands the pain of the fifteenth strong impulse better than anyone else.

He was no more calm than fifteen.

To be precise, at this time today, his "dissuasion" of patting Fifteen on the left shoulder is actually a persuasion of himself.

Don't be impulsive.

Absolutely, no.

"Then go your separate ways."

Feeling the strangeness of the two, "Ling Jun" raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced at them.

Hatred.

This kind of gaze that made him extremely familiar, as always, made his whole body tense and inexplicably excited.

A touch of black green, like an arrow from the bow, galloped towards the entrance of the curtain.

Fifteen and the winter solstice, because of the moment before the stunned, he was left behind, seven or eight horse body positions.

Everyone present saw that "Ling Jun" was the first to enter the paddock, so they tightened the reins, raised their whips, and prepared to rush into the paddock first after Li Lanqi and Mu Rui rode their horses.

Unexpectedly, their wrists were sore, Li Lanqi and Mu Rui were still "discussing" with you and me, how to cook the results of the hunt at lunchtime.

"In my opinion, it's better to bake and eat it, Arrow."

"Especially venison."

"Put it on the rack and bake it whole."

Hearing "Ling Jun" call Mu Rui "A Rui", Li Lanqi also changed his words, "If you can't hunt wild deer, hares are okay." ”

"I think it's better to slaughter and wash it, find the leaves and wrap them, wrap them in yellow mud, throw them into the fire, and burn them slowly on a low fire to be delicious enough."

Hearing Li Lanqi take the initiative to get close to him, Mu Rui would not be stupid to push people out.

Moreover, they have already voted for Lingjun's camp, so they should be "loyal to the king" and do their best for what he wants to do, for example, now, Lingjun needs them to delay time, they should brag here, and press everyone here, not an inch.

If they want to say, why do they know that Ling Jun needs them to delay time, it is naturally because if Ling Jun does not need it, he will definitely follow the royal practice and order others to go first!

After another half an hour, everyone present finally couldn't help but ask Li Lanqi when he could leave.

Hearing someone ask him when he could leave, Li Lan was slightly stunned at first, and then slowly turned around, pretending not to know that everyone had not set off, and looked around slowly.

"Just now, didn't the third master say that he had set off?"

"What are you all doing here?!"

Li Lanqi's acting skills, after all, have experienced "fighting wits and courage" with the old foxes of Depingbo Mansion, and after "tempering thousands of times", he has now achieved "Dacheng".

Against these little foxes, even the "little ones" who are not even little foxes, how can they fall behind?

"Don't look at me and Arrow."

"We stayed here to be responsible for supplies, to set up camp for you, to prepare for food and hunt counts!"

After that, Li Lanqi showed a rather regretful look, obviously resentful of his inability to compete for the birthday banquet.

"Lan Qi Mo sighed in frustration, how could the third master have treated his own people badly!"

"We were ordered to stay, and we only need to fulfill our duties to complete the instructions of the third master, and we will be able to be rewarded as soon as possible, how can it be more than competing with these many people for a reward, and we need to ensure the harvest in drought and flood, right?"

Mu Rui smiled and patted Li Lanqi's shoulder, softly speaking, and persuaded him not to complain about Ling Jun's arrangement.

In fact, no one arranged for them to stay behind at all.

They all chose to stay, first, for the sake of "loyalty to the king", and secondly, because they understood that no one would "win" in today's hunt, and naturally, there was no one who could get the birthday banquet promised by "Ling Jun".

Since it has been said that the lunch is made of local materials, it is natural to arrange manpower to stay in front of the mountain to guard the stove, and "Lingjun" only said a casual word, and led people straight into the paddock, the meaning is not obvious?

"Ling Jun" is testing the two of them to see if they are qualified to become his arms and even confidants.

And they, if they want to prove that they have this value, they must go all out, and they must do their best to "see" clearly, all the "questions" that "Ling Jun" "buried" in this examination.

Hearing that the two of them were so unscrupulous, showing off in front of themselves, and the benefits of joining Lingjun's camp, most of the people present suddenly showed a look of annoyance.

These two guys are clearly deliberate, deliberately stopping them here, they, they ......

People from different families have their own ideas.

But no one thought that they were hinted at by "Lingjun" to delay so much.

Believing that Li Lanqi and Mu Rui were Lingjun's people, the children of the various prefectures dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, so they could only secretly scold Li Lanqi and Mu Rui while scrambling to be the first, and rode their horses straight to the entrance of the paddock.

……

After the children of each province entered the enclosure, another half an hour passed.

Suddenly, the sound of a horn, which symbolizes a warning, three long and one short, resounded throughout the entire Miaofeng Mountain.

The children of all the prefectures who heard the warning gave up the wild things that had not been hunted and went straight to the direction where the horn came to gather, and then, a few people who were relatively close to the entrance of the enclosure saw the blood-stained "Lingjun" with an arrow stuck in the shoulder socket.

"Those who come back off!"

"Get out of the paddock!"

"There are assassins!"

Fifteen, who rode with "Ling Jun", rode his horse and hurried, and shouted to the children of the family who gathered up.

Looking at "Ling Jun" again, his face was already pale at this time, and his eyes were closed.

Miaofeng Mountain is not precipitous, and the place of enclosure is chosen, and it only occupies the slope forest at the bottom of the mountain and a very small part of the foot of the mountain, so the fifteenth carried "Lingjun" and rushed all the way to the camp where the stove was buried, but it only took a small half a quarter of work.

"Report to Your Majesty that the third master was assassinated and seriously injured!"

"Protect the children of each family from the paddock!"

Fifteen took the seriously injured "Lingjun" and went straight to the direction of Deshuixuan.

Immediately following the winter solstice, when the horse passed by Li Lanqi and Mu Rui, he hurriedly explained to the two, and then kept going, in the direction of the fifteenth departure, and chased straight away.

This sudden "change" made Li Lanqi, who was waiting to see the excitement, slightly stunned, and then looked at Mu Rui who was standing beside him with a blue face.

In his mind, except for the two of them, the children of all the families entered the paddock.

And now, Ling Jun is seriously injured, and the children of all the families are rumoring, if the murderer cannot be found as soon as possible, the two of them will undoubtedly become the target of everyone.

"The hunting location is temporary."

Mu Rui pondered for a moment, and when he looked up again, there was no anxiety in his eyes.

He didn't finish his sentence.

But just a few simple words were enough to appease Li Lan with all his uneasiness.

They have been following Ling Jun.

Their cronies and guards have not left.

To put it mildly, the two of them, who had "sworn allegiance" to Ling Jun, stayed at the foot of the mountain, and camped with the guards of the Three Princes' Mansion, were the most unreasonable and suspicious of all the people who participated in the hunt, and they were injured by "Ling Jun".

Thinking of this, Li Lanqi couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat again.

If he hadn't echoed Mu Rui this morning, swore allegiance to Ling Jun, or was in a hurry, regardless of what Mu Rui had retained, he took his guards and followed "Ling Jun" into the mountain, at this time......

"I've had a head injury, and I don't remember a lot of things in detail."

"When Arrow was young, did he have any old friends with me?"

Before today, Li Lanqi and Mu Rui were not even nodding friends.

Naturally, it is impossible, and he is kind to Mu Rui.

But so far, Mu Rui has helped, no, saved him three times.

Reactive power is not punished.

No kindness is not kissed.

Li Lanqi didn't believe it, Mu Rui would help him like this, there would be no reason at all.

"Miss Yuanru, she once saved Rui from danger."

Mu Rui slowly raised his head, crossed Li Lanqi's shoulder, and looked in the direction of the entrance of the paddock, where several children of the family had come out under the guard of their respective guards.

When Li Yuanru was mentioned, Mu Rui's eyes suddenly flashed with a hint of blood.

But soon, this glint disappeared, and he also changed back to that cowardly young master who treated people kindly, was bullied and squeezed by others, and only thought about "calming things down".

"Depingbo Mansion has a wide range of doors, and the source of information is also wider than that of the Qianguo Mansion."

"If you find out that the culprit who harmed Miss Yuanru's life, I hope Lan Qi, don't be stingy to tell me."

Mu Rui's request is not excessive.

At least, in Li Lanqi's opinion, what he wants is not much.

"Yuanru is my mother's younger sister, and she has been close to me since she was a child."

She was happy with the time for a long time, and she was fortunate to be favored by the gods, and she should have held hands side by side with her...... The road is that the world is unpredictable, I was ordered by my mother to send her clothes, she was fine, who would have thought, only a few days, she was poisoned! ”

Which one of the people from Depingbofu is not good at acting?

Li Lanqi said as she said, and she was "uncontrollable", her eyes were red, "I must find out the cause of her death, even if she provokes her father's anger and loses her official position since then, she must bring the person who harmed her to justice, and let the people who conspired with her pay the price!" ”

"Skynet is magnificent, negligent but not leaky."

Mu Rui is also from a famous family in Yanjing.

The degree to which the brotherhood among the famous families can be indifferent, he knows it better than anyone else.

But he did not expose Li Lanqi.

In other words, he didn't bother to expose Li Lanqi at all.

All he wanted to know was the cause of Li Yuanru's death.

As long as Li Lanqi can not delete it, he honestly tells him the cause of Li Yuanru, he doesn't care, how many words Li Lanqi says against his will, and how many false tears he sheds!
