Chapter 205 Hunting

Updated: 2012-08-02

Li Xiaoqi had already taken a bath, lying on the kang in the upper room of the side courtyard of the post house, swaying his legs comfortably and looking at the book, Luo Yan lifted the curtain and came in and said with a smile: "Girl, Dayu brought someone to deliver food, where is it placed?" Li Xiaoqi frowned, sat up, and motioned to put the rice and tea on the kang table, Haitang came in with two handymen from the post house with food boxes and set up the meals, Li Xiaoqi looked at the full dishes on the table, and ordered with a smile: "So many, call Danyue to come too, let's eat together, I'm afraid the four of us won't be able to eat." Luo Yan hurriedly went out and called Danyue to come in, Haitang took a few more bowls over, the three of them stood or sideways and half stood and half leaned on the edge of the kang, accompanied Li Xiaoqi to eat together, cleaned up, Luo Yan made a cup of tea and brought it over and put it on a few, sat sideways on the edge of the kang, looked at Li Xiaoqi who continued to read crookedly on the kang and smiled: "Fifth master, this book is so good-looking, I can't get tired of reading it every day?" ”

"Well," Li Xiaoqi glanced at Luo Yan, lowered his head and continued to read, Luo Yan moved forward, and said with a smile: "Fifth Master, let me ask a question, don't be angry." ”

"Well, you can ask first." Li Xiaoqi replied casually, Luo Yan looked at Li Xiaoqi carefully, thought about it and then continued: "I think the prince is very good to the fifth master, the fifth master is ??????." Li Xiaoqi looked up at Luo Yan, Luo Yan's tongue turned, and his voice dropped an octave and said vaguely: "The fifth master is a big shelf upside down." Li Xiaoqi raised his eyebrows high, and it took a while to fall, and he 'hummed' from his nose, and lifted the book, as if he was not ready to take care of the wild goose at all, and the wild goose moved forward again, and persuaded in a serious low voice: "Fifth master, this is not good, you see, just like me and you, you are the master, I am the servant, then I have to think about the fifth master everywhere, this is my duty??????"

"Listen, first, you follow me, I didn't treat you as a servant, I didn't think I was the master, we were partners, at most I was the shopkeeper, you were a buddy, and I didn't take your deed, what master, what servant? Second, I am the guest and the host of the prince, at most the shopkeeper and the owner, he is the owner of the money, I am the shopkeeper of the work, you are the guy who runs errands, just like the lead! Li Xiaoqi refuted Luo Yan's words, and Luo Yan smiled and continued: "The fifth master said that the shopkeeper and the owner, then the shopkeeper and the owner, that is, the shopkeeper and the owner, it's not good, isn't it?" If you don't get along with the owner, this shopkeeper is not easy to do! ”

Li Xiaoqi took a deep breath, fell the goose obliquely, and asked slowly for a while: "You said that the prince is very good to me, why is it good?" Luo Yan was stunned and replied, "Okay, why else?" In order to?????? The fifth master is so capable??????" Luo Yan's mind turned quickly for a while: "Lord Wang?????? Always staring at the fifth master, the fifth master ?????? What's the plan? Luo Yan looked at Li Xiaoqi apologetically, Li Xiaoqi motioned for her to hand over the teacups on the table to herself, took two sips, and then smiled bitterly: "The plan is to ignore him, what else?" ”

"The prince really can't ??????" Luo Yan suddenly remembered what he had said to Haitang, and changed his words in the middle of the sentence: "The fifth master is always like this, this matter can't be delayed, the fifth master made it clear to him, the prince is not the kind of bastard thing, the fifth master is so capable, just make it clear, it's not a matter to be like this!" Li Xiaoqi looked at Luo Yan in a daze, and the place in his heart that he thought he had sealed tightly suddenly collapsed and broke, and a strong sourness rushed up, causing Li Xiaomi's tears to roll in his eyes.

Li Xiaoqi hurriedly lowered his head, pressed the corner of his eye with a handkerchief, and sighed for a long time, his voice was so low that he could barely hear it: "You're right, I know, I'll make it clear to him!" Luo Yan looked at Li Xiaoqi in a daze and some disbelief, and said in annoyance for a while: "Fifth master, we women?????? Don't grieve yourself, and don't ?????? Alas! The fifth master's affairs, the fifth master is in charge of his own affairs, do whatever he wants, don't worry about himself??????"

"I know, I'm tired, you should go down and rest early, there are a lot of things to do tomorrow." Li Xiaoqi lowered her head and chased the wild goose, she didn't want to say another word to anyone. Luo Yan stood up, looked at Li Xiaoqi with annoyance and anxiety, withdrew from the upper room, stood in the courtyard and thought for a long time, but didn't come up with any clue, so he had to look for Danyue and Begonia in frustration and wait for Li Xiaoqi to rest.

At dawn the next day, Li Xiaoqi washed up and changed his clothes, came out and stretched his arms, looked at the somewhat gloomy sky, took a deep breath and exhaled a few breaths, Luo Yan was right, dodging and avoiding are not his own style, when it is broken, it will be broken, and it will be clean, and I will talk to him later! Li Xiaoqi had just shaken half a circle in the courtyard, Nanning looked in from the gate of the courtyard, saw Li Xiaoyi, hurriedly came in a few steps, and greeted the salute with a smile on his face: "Girl, morning!" Ye let the girl say, he went to see the river work, seeing that he was going to cauliflower flood, in case the embankment broke, it was a big event, the master said that it was too far to come and go, so he would not take the girl to go. ”

"Oh!" Li Xiaoqi flashed upside down: "How many days?" ”

"How many days, this is Luohe County, if it's early, you can rush back at noon, I'll go first, what's the matter with the girl, just look for General Hou." Nanning retreated, ran out of the courtyard gate, Li Xiaoqi stood in the courtyard in a daze, what is this? She's not going to avoid it, he's busy with official business!

It is rare to have such a gloomy day, Li Xiaoqi simply let the light moon hang up the curtain of the car door high, sit by the car door by himself, and watch the scenery in the wind.

After eating lunch and walking for a long time, a team of people in front of him joined in, and Danyue stretched out her head from behind Li Xiaoqi to look: "Is the second master back?" ”

"Well, probably." Li Xiaoqi squinted his eyes and looked at the black-clothed and black-armored in front of him, Nanning took a black and handsome military horse behind the horse, rushed to Li Xiaoyi's car and stopped, Nanning jumped off the horse, bowed down and said with a smile: "Girl, the lord is going to hunt, ask the girl if she is going, there are mountains and rivers in this area, the woods are dense, there are many deer, muntjac, roe deer, etc., as well as pheasants, quails, these birds, you don't need arrows, you can step on them with horses, hunting is the most interesting!" Li Xiaoqi was moved by Nanning's description, hesitated slightly, and readily agreed: "Okay! Wait until I change my clothes! ”

"Yes!" Nanning's promise was simply delighted, and Danyue was busy jumping out of the car to look for Li Xiaoyi's riding clothes behind, and Li Xiaoqi shouted: "Ask if the begonias and the wild goose are going." Danyue agreed while running, and in the car behind, Begonia and Luoyan also got out of the car and turned over their clothes. Nanning turned around and quietly signaled to the little guy with him, and the little guy nodded knowingly, got on the horse and went to the front to talk.

The four women were in a mess, waiting for Li Xiaoqi to change into a shallow silver and blue embroidered bird riding costume, Li Xiaoqi changed his clothes and jumped out of the car, stood on the grass, looked down at his overly beautiful riding costume and muttered: "How do you make such a bright color?" I don't know how to ride a horse, I dress so well, and I ride so badly??????" Nanningxiao's upper body shook non-stop, and she comforted while laughing: "The girl's riding skills are not bad, it is hunting, not fighting, the girl's riding skills are enough, and the girl will be more heroic if she puts a bow on her back and brings arrows." ”

Li Xiaoqi helplessly pulled her clothes, and when Begonia changed her clothes, the two got on the horse and followed Nanning to the front, Danyue wanted to look at the car, Luo Yan didn't want to ride a horse at all, the last time she came out of the Taiping Mansion, she almost died on horseback, and she didn't want to ride a horse again in her life.

Su Zicheng was wearing a royal blue arrow sleeve, and saw Li Xiaoqi wearing silver and blue on the black horse from a distance, with a smile in his eyes, and turned his head and instructed Dongping: "Take my bow and arrow to the girl." Dongping agreed, hurriedly dismounted and took out a heavy bow and long arrow for Su Zicheng, checked it, and quietly glanced at Su Zicheng, who was looking at Li Xiaoqi for a moment, holding the bow and arrow without saying a word.

Li Xiaoqi trotted over with his horse, and after a dozen steps away, he looked at Su Zicheng's gold-edged royal blue arrow sleeves, and once again annoyed how he had taken a fancy to this silver blue! Su Zicheng shook the reins and took two steps forward, looked up and down carefully, pointed to the bow and arrow held by Dongping and said with a smile: "The road is urgent, I didn't have time to prepare a bow and arrow for you, use mine first." Dongping hurriedly took a few steps forward and raised the bow and quiver in front of Li Xiaoyi, Li Xiaoqi looked at the big bow that was more than half a person tall and black with wide eyes, turned his head to look at Su Zicheng and asked with a wry smile: "How much does your bow weigh?" Su Zicheng was stunned, Li Xiaoqi bent down and pulled out a carved arrow that was much longer than an ordinary arrow from the quiver, held it in his hand and gestured, looked at Su Zicheng and said seriously: "Don't use a bow, just use this arrow, you can defend yourself by holding it in your hand, and you can kill a deer if you throw it out!" Li Xiaoqi raised the arrow and gestured, Su Zicheng laughed out loud, laughed for a long time, and then looked at Dongping and ordered: "See if there is a lighter bow." ”

"Hui Ye, our Tiger Wing Army is accustomed to using heavy bows, and the lightest bow weighs twenty or thirty pounds." Dongping replied respectfully, and Li Xiaoqi hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I can't carry ten catties!" No, I like to follow behind and pick up prey, this is the best! Su Zicheng stretched out his hand and took the arrow from Li Xiaoyi's hand and put it in his quiver: "Don't take this, be careful to scratch your hand, turn around and ask someone to make a bow for you, and then hit some short arrows for you to use." ”

"No, no, no," Li Xiaoqi said halfway and then turned around: "If you really want to do it, then make one, it doesn't matter if you can use it or not, it must look good, the better it looks, the better!" "It's just right to match her clothes, but it's useless anyway. Su Zicheng raised his eyebrows, and when he was halfway up, he fell down again and shook his head with a smile, looked at Li Xiaoqi and signaled, "Let's go." Li Xiaoqi nodded in response, urging the horse to follow behind Su Zicheng, and rushed to the deep and wide woods next to him, surrounded by all the small servants and guards.
