Chapter 53: Winter Hunting

After entering the winter moon, it snowed heavily for three consecutive days, and when everyone thought that this year's winter hunting was going to be canceled, the emperor ordered to set off for the Xishan Royal Hunting Ground three days later. Lin Ruhai did not participate in last year's winter hunting, but this year the emperor knew that he had practiced kung fu for nearly a year, so he asked him to try his skills with him. Lin Ruhai also wanted to go, but he didn't worry about Jia Min, and when he was in a dilemma, the county lord of Jiayue came to him.

"Lin Ruhai, I heard that you are going to follow the emperor to winter hunting?"

"I haven't made a decision yet, Min'er is more than seven months pregnant, and I really don't feel at ease to leave her at home alone!"

"Just go with confidence! I will take Min'er to the eldest princess's mansion today, with me and my mother here, I will definitely take care of Min'er. ”

"You heard that your husband was going out, and finally found a chance to play with me!?" Jia Min unceremoniously exposed the lord of Jiayue.

The county lord of Jiayue stuck out his tongue at Jia Min, and turned his head to look at Lin Ruhai, "You are happy, can you say a word?" ”

Lin Ruhai thought for a moment, and also felt that it was better for Jia Min to go to the eldest princess's mansion, and the county lord of Jiayue would protect him, at least he would not be wronged, and the eldest princess would also take care of Jia Min in his face. "Then Min'er will go and stay with the county lord for a few days, it just so happens that the county lord will get married at the beginning of next month."

"Look, your husband has agreed, hurry up and let people pack their things." Jiayue smiled and hugged Jia Min's arm and said.

Jia Min thought that Jiayue would get married in less than a month, and she also had a lot to say to Jiayue, so she nodded and said, "Okay!" I just went over to see if there was anything missing from your dowry. However, there are still some things to deal with at home, you go back first, and I will go to the eldest princess's mansion tomorrow? ”

Jiayue thought for a while and said, "It's okay, you can't clean up for a while, you can clean up slowly first, and I'll send someone to pick you up tomorrow when I get up early." ”

So, on the second day, Lin Ruhai sent Jia Min to the carriage of the eldest princess's mansion to pick up people, and rode to the palace gate to gather with the emperor's team.

The group arrived at the Xishan hunting ground, and the eunuchs who had already come first set up their tents. Lin Ruhai is under the care of the emperor, and his tent is very close to the emperor's tent. He asked Lin Xing and Lin An to pack up the tent before entering the tent to rest.

As soon as Lin Ruhai washed up under Lin Xing's service, Lin An said loudly outside the tent: "Master, Gonggong Shi next to the emperor is here." ”

"Hurry up and invite Gonggong Shi in!" Lin Ruhai Road.

"I've seen Lord Lin." After Gonggong Shi came in, he saluted Lin Ruhai, and Lin Ruhai stepped forward to help Gonggong Shi and said, "Why should Gonggong Shi be polite? ’

"Come and see, Lord Lin can be cleaned up here, there is anything missing, if you need anything, just let someone find me."

"Thank you Gonggong Shi, I don't lack anything here, I took care of it before Neiko came, and the two little guys also have to use it usually. If there's anything going on, I'm not going to be polite to you. ”

"That's good! Master Lin has a good wife, and now he is about to have an heir, what a blessing! Mr. Lin has knowledge under the spring, and he can also look at it! Shi Gonggong sighed. Lord Lin should rest first, tonight's meal will be brought in a while, and after eating, rest early, recuperate, and start winter hunting tomorrow. The miscellaneous family went back first. ‘’

"Okay, Gonggong Shi will go slowly, and Lin An will send Gonggong Shi."

Lin An sent Father-in-law Shi back, and Lin Ruhai was having dinner. "Master, our secret guard has just sent news." Lin An took out a note from the placket of his shirt and handed it to Lin Ruhai with both hands.

Lin Ruhai took the note, opened it and saw that his handsome face was immediately as black as the bottom of a pot. "You go and wait outside the tent first, and be careful not to let outsiders come close."

After Lin An and Lin Xing went out, Lin Ruhai took out a dog flute from his arms and blew it three times, and a black man flashed into the tent after a while.

"Dark twenty-seven has seen the master!"

"Get up and talk!" Lin Ruhai raised the note in his hand and said, "What I said above, you take it carefully." ”

Dark twenty-seven bowed down, and told the story. It turned out that in this winter hunt, the emperor also brought Zhao Jingjing and Xiang Xiaoqin. Zhao Jingjing was born in Jiangmen, and the emperor planned to bring her here, but Xiang Xiaoqin asked the emperor again and again, and the emperor couldn't stand her coquettish pestering, so he agreed to let her follow. As soon as he arrived at the Xishan Hunting Ground today, Xiang Xiaoqin asked a newly promoted person named Qinglian to inquire about Lin Ruhai's residence. Dark Twenty-Seven felt suspicious, so he kept hiding outside Xiang Xiaoqin's tent and eavesdropping. I actually heard Xiang Xiaoqin say to a guard captain: I want them to find an opportunity to let Lin Ruhai have an accident and suffer a slight injury when he is hunting in these days, as long as he can't move for a while.

"Have you found out that Xiang Xiaoqin has been in contact with other people?"

"No, it turned out that Xiuyun, the palace maid next to her, entered the palace with her, but Xiuyun suddenly fell ill last night and didn't come with her."

Lin Ruhai knew that Xiang Xiaoqin was Zhen Yingjia's person, but he didn't understand why Xiang Xiaoqin wanted to hurt him. "You still go and keep an eye on Xiang Xiaoqin, if there is anything, report it in time."

"Yes, master!" Dark Twenty-Seven took the order and left.

Lin Ruhai thought about it again and again, but he didn't understand Xiang Xiaoqin's purpose of harming him, so he decided to plan it. He summoned Lin Xing in and instructed, "You will go to those guards to investigate later and see what they do." He wrote another letter to Jia Min to keep him safe, and asked Lin An to pass the book out.

Lin Ruhai waited until the third watch before Lin Xing came back. "How?"

"The minion invited a soldier under the captain of the guard to drink, and the soldier got drunk and told the minion that tomorrow their captain will send them to the Wild Deer Valley to dig a trap, but the trap can't be too deep."

Lin Ruhai thought about it for a while and smiled, his kung fu is not deep, at most he can hunt some herbivorous prey, and it is best to be able to hunt a deer. In the entire West Mountain Hunting Ground, only the Wild Deer Valley has the most deer. As for the trap not to dig too deep, it is so that Lin Ruhai will not be too seriously injured, at most, he will twist his foot.

"They want me to be injured, do they dare to let me be injured too seriously, for fear that the emperor will investigate it, and their lives will not be guaranteed."

"Then do we need to get rid of all these guards?" Lin Xingdao.

"No need, the sudden death of a few guards will definitely attract the emperor's attention. I am going to make a plan and explore Xiang Xiaoqin's true purpose. ”

"Master, this is too dangerous!"

"I don't know the other party's purpose is the most dangerous, and besides, they have no intention of hurting my life, and then I pretend to fall into the trap, and I won't be hurt."

Here Lin Ruhai is ready to break the game, but Xiang Xiaoqin doesn't know that her plan has been mastered by Lin Ruhai.
