Han Tian smiled faintly,

"Recently, I have been managing a relatively quiet business, and I heard from the owner of the door that he was going to come to Night City to participate in the autumn hunt, so I thought about coming over to move my muscles. But you, when you went out to learn art, did you learn to ride a horse and shoot arrows? ”

Ling Ling shrugged helplessly, shook his head slightly, and quipped,

"It's too late to figure out how to deal with the four of you, so there's no time to learn how to ride a horse and shoot an archery. I'll just be a bastard silently on this hunt. ”

"I heard that the first place in the autumn hunting of the White Seal Country will be rewarded by the emperor, don't you want to give it a try?"

"Even if I want to fight for it, I have to have that ability," she noticed a gaze coming to her from Han Tian's side, she turned her eyes to look at the little entourage beside him, and asked, "This entourage next to you is a bit of a face." ”

Han Tian rolled his eyes and glanced at the little entourage beside him who was breathing a little heavily. replied indifferently,

"He was the man I rescued the other day when I was on a bounty hunter mission, and when I saw that he couldn't speak and had no one to rely on, I took him in as my retinue."

Ling Ling nodded approvingly, "That's a good practice. ”

Han Tian smiled lightly and raised his hand to taste tea.

Ling Ling, who was thinking about passing the time, turned the topic to Jinrong again,

"Jinrong, how is the matter in Mingcheng recently."

Jin Rong, who had never been able to interject on the side, saw that Ling Ling finally remembered her, and she immediately came to her senses,

"Back to Miss, everything is going on as normal. Both the academy and the theater went smoothly as always. It's ......"

Jinrong hesitated suddenly, Ling Ling raised her eyebrows and looked at her, "What's it?" ”

"It's just that since the end of the selection of the young master, Qu Miaoyin has disappeared."

"What?" The pastry in her hand fell, and she frowned, "What does it mean to be gone?" Miao Yin is missing? Did you go to her? ”

Jinrong nodded, "Before she left, she left a note in the house, saying that there was something at home and left Longyunmen early. But since then, she has not been seen again, neither the academy nor the theater have seen her, and Glory has sent people to look for her, but nothing has been found. ”

Ling Ling rubbed his eyebrows,

"Maybe there's something delayed, keep looking, Miaoyin has a very good talent, and she will definitely be a good actor in the future. We can't afford to miss such a talent. ”

"Yes, miss."

Suddenly hearing Qu Miaoyin's matter, Ling Ling didn't continue to speak, she quietly looked at the pastries in the food box on the side, remembering the scene when Qu Miaoyin was looking forward to giving her the pastries she made that day......

At that time, she was indeed a little careless, but she didn't expect that some of her actions made Qu Miaoyin misunderstand, and when she saw her again in the future, she must apologize to her.

Han Tian turned his eyes to look at the little entourage beside him who was staring at Ling Ling's face, and the corners of his mouth on the side of the teacup were slightly raised imperceptibly.

The group walked for about two hours, and finally arrived at the hunting ground ten miles outside the city.

Inside the tent, Ling Ling and Jinrong finished packing their things and had just sat down to discuss, when they heard Su Shen's voice outside the tent.

"City Lord Ling, the emperor is invited."

Ling Ling burned the rice paper on the table with a fire fold, and instructed Jin Rong, who was dressed as an entourage with a dark face and blurred facial features,

"Although there are officers and soldiers guarding outside, there is still a lot of danger,"

Anyone in the palace dares to kill her, not to mention the wide hunting grounds,

"I don't know what those people are going to do, you need to be more careful when you're alone."

"Yes, young master."

In order not to reveal his identity, Jinrong also changed his name to Ling Ling.

Ling Ling got up and straightened his clothes, and after checking his whole body, he walked out of the tent.

Su Shen led her all the way to Bai Yixiu's tent,

"City Lord Ling, please."

Ling Ling nodded slightly,

"There is Father-in-law Laosu."

She stepped forward and lifted the heavy curtain of the tent and walked in.

The furnishings in the tent are fresh and elegant, although they are delicate but not gorgeous, there is a faint sandalwood fragrance in the air, and Bai Yixiu sits behind the central desk in a dark green brocade robe. He was reading a book when he saw her walk in, with a faint smile like a spring breeze on her handsome and elegant face,

"Sit."

He raised his hand to gesture for the seat next to him.

Ling Ling bowed slightly and took his seat as he instructed.

"Are you getting better?" He asked softly,

Ling Ling was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that when she let herself go a few days ago, she refused to see everyone on the grounds of illness.

"Thank you for the emperor's concern, it's no big deal."

Seeing that her attitude was a little cold, Bai Yixiu didn't continue to greet her, he put down the book in his hand and said,

"The people who assassinated you near the covered bridge a few days ago are the guards of the Prime Minister's Mansion of Shangguan."

She looked at him with some surprise in her gaze. As if asking him why he knew about that day, Bai Yixiu raised his eyebrows slightly,

"After the ministers feasted on you, I sent some people to protect you, but I didn't expect someone to be one step faster than me."

He said it flatly, Ling Ling's eyebrows jumped, and he continued to listen to him as if nothing had happened.

"I have sent someone to monitor Shangguan Feng's movements, and I am thinking these days, if it is really his person who sent someone to assassinate you, then his move will undoubtedly push him closer to death."

Ling Ling pondered his words repeatedly and pondered, "What does the emperor mean that Shangguan Feng has been used by others?" ”

Bai Yixiu nodded, "Nine times out of ten, that person has always been cautious, he knows that I am investigating him, and he will never expose himself in such a clumsy way." I want to come to Shangguan Feng to openly target you at the banquet of the ministers. He should have been instructed by that man, but he didn't think that he was just a pawn in that man's hand. ”

He got up and handed a rolled cowhide drawing to Ling Ling,

"This is a detailed map of the entire hunting grounds, and like the one I gave you before, it shows many secret escapes and extremely hidden hiding places in the woods."

Ling Ling got up and took the cowhide drawing, her eyes were faintly shining, this map was undoubtedly a rare treasure for her now, she didn't dare to let Bai Yixiu perceive her thoughts at the moment, Zhengsedao,

"What am I going to do this time?"

At the moment, she is extremely serious, and she is a little more distressing than usual.

Bai Yixiu frowned lightly, she could have been happy to be her young master, if he hadn't involved her, she wouldn't be in such danger as she is now.

He shook his head, his hand uncontrollably brushing the somewhat messy green silk on her shoulder,

"This autumn hunt will definitely not live in peace, you just need to protect yourself, don't let others take advantage of it, and I will deal with other things."

His sudden action made Ling Ling a little uncomfortable, she moved her body back slightly, bowed her head and saluted,

"Ling Ling, thank you for your concern."

Her cold attitude made him feel a little lost, and he withdrew his hand behind his back,

"Go back and rest."

"The minister retired."

Ling Ling put the drawings away. Walk in the direction of the door.

As soon as he walked out of Bai Yixiu's tent, he saw a rose-red dress embroidered with golden silk peonies. Shangguan Qiang'er, who was exquisitely dressed and holding a food box in her hand, was walking towards her.

Ling Ling lowered his eyes and bowed his head, passing by her, and saluted slightly,

"Niang Niang auspicious."

Shangguan Qiang'er's thoughts at the moment are all on the food box in her hand and Bai Yixiu's body. casually glanced at the person beside him who was saluting,

"Let's be flat."

After speaking, she walked to Bai Yixiu's side, and Siqing, who was following Shangguan Qiang'er, walked past Ling Ling, just as Ling Ling got up to go back to the camp tent, and when she passed by, Siqing suddenly saw the face that lingered in her mind like a nightmare these days, and the fear and unwillingness in her heart were instantly intertwined, and she quickly stepped forward to stop Shangguan Qiang'er,

"!"

Shangguan Qiang'er stopped outside the tent and frowned angrily,

"What's wrong?"
