Chapter 3: Saving Beauty
Xiao Feng didn't want his father to feel sorry for himself anymore, so he deliberately found a topic to divert his attention, "Under the wise and martial governance of my father, what else can happen." But there has been a strange thing recently. ”
"Oh?"
"Legend has it that someone saw a fox with a fiery red body in the mountains and forests near Izumo Castle."
"Firefox?" The emperor was stunned for a moment, and sat up tremblingly, "It must be that ......"
"Father?" Xiao Feng was surprised by the emperor's overly excited reaction.
Although he had also seen the emperor's previous fire fox, after all, it was seven years ago, when he was only fifteen years old, so his memory of that incident was not so deep, and his father rarely mentioned it again after that, and he almost forgot about it.
"Feng'er, it must be the firefox from seven years ago." The emperor grabbed Xiao Feng's arm, his eyes lit up, "There aren't many fire foxes, and there are not many people in this world who have seen them, let alone the ones I saw in Izumo City...... It must be the one, that one that disappeared from Izumo City. ”
"Father, do you really want to see that fire fox again?"
"I'm sorry for it, that little thing...... If it hadn't been for it, I would have been poisoned to death seven years ago, and it saved me, but I wounded it. ”
The emperor remembered the past and regretted himself, "If I can see it again in my lifetime, I will really have no regrets in this life." ”
Xiao Feng was silent for a moment, and finally made a decision: "Father, the son will go to Izumo City to help you get it back." ”
"Firefox is extremely fast, and it is easy not to come out and move, where is it so easy for you to find." The Emperor shook his head and let out a long sigh.
"Father, rest assured, the retainers will set off for Izumo City tomorrow, and they will definitely try their best to find it."
The Emperor nodded with satisfaction and advised, "Remember not to hurt it." ”
"Erchen knows."
……
Izumo Castle, Cloud House.
Yun Chen pushed open his sister's door and walked in.
"Second brother, why did you come back so early today?" Yun Xuan looked up from the desk.
"Xuan'er, there is a message from my eldest brother today, and I specially brought it to you." Yun Chen took out the secret letter that Yun Jing gave him and handed it to Yun Xuan.
Yun Jing is now on an errand in the palace and is a squad leader among the imperial guards. Yun Chen was a master of his father in the Yamen of Longcheng. Yun Jun is only one year older than Yun Xuan, and he is still a student.
Yun Xuan's three older brothers all knew her ambitions, and since they had doted on this only sister since she was a child, they would try their best to help her whenever she wanted. Yun Jing often told her about the personnel situation in the palace.
Yun Xuan opened the envelope, there was only a piece of paper inside, a few simple words, but it made Yun Xuan laugh from the bottom of his heart, "This is really a rare opportunity." ”
"What are you going to do?" Yun Chen looked at his sister.
Yun Xuan slowly walked to the mirror, looked at the stunning woman in the mirror, and said confidently, "I want to get close to him and make him fall in love with me." ”
"I'm afraid it's not easy, he has a noble status, there are too many people around him to protect him, and it is difficult for ordinary people to approach him." Yun Chen looked at her worriedly, although this sister is smart, this matter is too dangerous and not good...... I'm afraid it's hard to even get out of it.
"I can't care about so much, such an opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, I must give it a try."
Although she is the daughter of an official family, she is also qualified to enter the palace draft, but I heard the eldest brother say that the first show is generally selected by the queen and the concubine, and the emperor rarely chooses it personally. She is too beautiful, but it is easy to be brushed off, and she can only be a little palace maid in the palace when the time comes, and she doesn't know when she will be able to get ahead.
The fourth prince is the most loved son of the emperor, if she gets the heart of the four princes before entering the palace, and the four princes inherit the throne in the future, even if she may not be able to ascend the throne of the queen, she will definitely be able to become a favorite concubine.
As long as she can successfully approach the fourth prince, she has a lot of confidence that she can make him fall in love with her, and she knows that she was born with a stunning face that is rare in the world, and is known as the first beauty in Izumo City.
Half a month later, on the outskirts of Izumo Castle.
In the early morning, the mountain forest was shrouded in mist, and on the smooth boulder beside the stream, sat a majestic man in a white robe.
This man is Xiao Feng, the fourth prince who went out of the palace to find the fire fox, after his many inquiries, the fire fox should be in this mountain forest, and he has ordered people to scatter in all corners of the mountain forest, waiting for the rabbit.
In order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, he left the capital secretly this time, and not many outsiders knew, so he and his subordinates disguised themselves as ordinary knights.
He himself had been waiting here for six days, not to mention any firefoxes, not even ordinary foxes had seen one. It's really thanks to his patience, if it's the Seventh Emperor Brother, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for two days.
Suddenly, a black shadow swept quickly in front of his eyes, and Xiao Feng's eyes narrowed.
He quickly got up and chased after the black shadow, which seemed to be carrying a woman on his shoulder if he hadn't been dazzled just now.
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Feng had caught up with the gray figure in front of him, blocking his way.
"Please stay. Your Excellency's sneaky whereabouts, and the fact that you are carrying an unconscious woman on your shoulder, are you suspicious, can you explain? ”
Xiao Feng clenched his hands into fists, and his handsome and resolute face had a polite smile. A pair of black eyes looked sharply at the bearded man in front of him.
"I advise you to be nosy, and don't get out of the way!" The bearded man snorted roughly, not taking the man in the white robe in front of him in his eyes, intending to force his way through.
Xiao Feng smiled, and was even more sure that the person in front of him was a flower thief. In broad daylight, under the nose of him, the fourth prince of the Great Yan Kingdom, how could he allow the crime to happen.
"In that case, then offended." At the end of the words, Xiao Feng slashed out at him with his palm, aiming to save the woman.
After less than four strokes, the bearded man was obviously weak, and after being slapped in the chest, he hurriedly threw the woman on his shoulder towards him and escaped by taking advantage of the gap.
"Count him as a fast runner." Xiao Feng caught the woman with a quick hand, and his eyes turned to the woman in his arms.
Suddenly, there was a shock in the chest.
Xiao Feng wondered if he had seen the fairy in the mountain, and the woman in his arms was so beautiful that she was aura.
The beautiful face is beautiful and elegant, but it is flawless; Two long eyelashes form a beautiful arc below the closed eyes; The soft cherry lips like flower petals make people want to kiss the fragrance, and the silky jade skin that bullies the frost and snow makes people unable to take their eyes off it.
Xiao Feng's eyes fell on her forehead, which should have been flawless, and there was a wound the size of a cup. His brow furrowed, a mixture of anger and distress echoing in his chest.
He shouldn't have let go of that bearded man so easily!
Reluctantly took his eyes off her, hugged the comatose beauty, and left this magnolia forest.
