She lifted her head, let out a long breath, and swallowed it all, trying to calm it down, not thinking about it anymore. [No pop-ups. 】
The night sky was pitch black, and suddenly there was a flutter, and a white pigeon landed on the snow, looking at Chu Qiao from a distance, tilting his head, and leaning over step by step.
This is a wild pigeon, not a domesticated carrier pigeon, and a little scared. It must have seen this man sitting here for so long, motionless, a little curious, and wanted to lean over to take a look. Chu Qiao raised his head, noticed the bird, smiled slightly, reached into his pocket, took out a handful of wheat for feeding the horses, and sprinkled it on the ground.
The snow was vast and it was difficult to forage for food, and the pigeon screamed happily when it saw it, flapped its wings and flew in the direction of Chu Qiao.
However, at this moment, two sharp arrows suddenly shot at the same time from a distance, and both of them were fiercely inserted into the chest and abdomen of the pigeon, and with a bang, blood sprayed all over the place.
The roaring sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded, and the two fast horses were far ahead of the people behind them, one red and one black, fierce and eye-catching. The man on the red horse was twenty-five or sixteen years old, and when he saw the young man sitting on the snow, he didn't even ask, he couldn't help but bend his bow and arrows, and with a whoosh, he shot towards Chu Qiao's heart!
With a muffled sound, Chu Qiao was like a raging cheetah in an instant, holding the ground with one hand, spinning around, his movements were swift and unparalleled, and he turned around with his right hand and copied it, and firmly grasped the arrow in the palm of his hand.
The wind blew, and the girl's long fur was swaying in the air, like a white eagle about to fly, her eyes were as sharp as ice and snow, and she looked coldly at the comer.
"Whose descendants, why do they wander in the hunting grounds late at night?" A cold voice came out of the mouth of the man on the red horse coldly, the man hurt people for no reason, but at this moment he did not have the slightest remorse. Dressed in the snow and cold mink of the extreme northern abyss, under the grace, it faintly exudes indescribable coldness and gloom.
With a bang, the man on the black horse jumped off the horse, also twenty-five or sixteen years old, with eyes like brass bells, and a dark face, ran in front of the pigeon in a few steps, and raised his hand, "Muhe Xifeng, how can this be counted?" ”
The man on the red horse glanced at Chu Qiao coldly, then turned his head to the man and said, "Zalu, my arrow was shot in the throat, naturally I won." ”
The man frowned, and said angrily: "How do you know that your arrow is in the throat, and we don't use the engraved arrow." ”
"Of course I know the arrows shot by my own hands."
"Hmph, no." Zaru said, "Rematch. ”
Mu Hexifeng raised his eyebrows, "How do you want to compare?" ”
"Then, it's her." Zalu casually pointed at Chu Qiao and said, "Isn't this a ready-made slave?" Just shoot her. ”
Chu Qiao's brows furrowed slowly, and he squinted at Zalu. But Zaru didn't notice it at all, turned around and climbed on the horse's back, and when he saw her, he urged, "Run, run farther." ”
Chu Qiao looked the two of them up and down a few times, his eyebrows tightened, and then he said in a deep voice to Mu Hexifeng: "I'm not a slave. ”
Mu Hexifeng raised his eyebrows when he heard this, seemed to be quite interested, raised his eyebrows and said, "So what? ”
yes, so what? Even if they weren't slaves, these nobles could be slaughtered at will when the mood came, without any reason at all.
Chu Qiao stopped talking, turned around and walked in the direction of Yan Xun's tent, there was a sharp sound, a strong arrow was stuck in the snow against her heel, and Zalu shouted angrily: "Tell you to run quickly, didn't you hear?" ”
In the cold wind, the girl turned her head suddenly, her eyes were dark, and her eyes swept across Zalu's face, and the young lord of Zalu in the northwest fiefdom felt a chill in her heart, and a curse was actually held back.
"If I'm on horseback, will the two masters be able to shoot it?"
The corners of Mu Hexifeng's mouth twitched slightly, and before he could speak, Zalu said angrily: "Give her the horse." ”
A war horse with a pitch-black body was led to the girl's side, Chu Qiao patted the horse's head lightly, and then turned around to look at the two. The wind was very strong at night, and the snow on the ground hit the face like small grains of sand, and it hurt.
Suddenly, I saw the girl turn over on the horse violently, pull out the small dagger at her waist, and stick it into the horse's buttocks without hesitation. The war horse screamed, and galloped sharply with lightning speed, and before everyone could react, it had disappeared from the sight of the two.
Zalu was dumbfounded, his eyes were as wide as bull's eyes, and after a long time, he turned his head to Mu Hexifeng and said, "She's just gone?" ”
Mu Hexifeng turned his horse's head and walked in the direction of the crowd, snorting coldly as if nothing happened: "Then what do you think? ”
Zalu was furious, and his irritable voice came from behind, and Mu Hexi's eyebrows and eyes were cold, and his eyes flashed with sharp edges.
Before he got close to the camp, a team of men and horses galloped from the opposite side, Chu Qiao stopped the war horse, frowned, and saw that the figures were getting closer and closer, and it was Yan Xun and Ah Jing and the other guards.
"Achu!" Yan Xun saw Chu Qiao, grabbed the reins, rushed forward, and said in a deep voice, "Are you okay?" ”
"It's fine." Chu Qiao shook his head and asked, "Is the night hunt over?" How did you come back so quickly? ”
Yan Xun looked the girl up and down, his chest heaved and he was a little panting, he shook his head and said, "Let's go back to the camp first." ”
Yan Xun seemed to be very tired tonight, and after returning to the tent, the two went back to their rooms separately. When he went out, he happened to meet Ah Jing and several guards leading a few children into the camp, Chu Qiao was stunned for a moment, and walked up to ask.
Ah Jing said respectfully: "Girl, this is what the prince bought from the night hunting ground. ”
Chu Qiao was stunned for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "I bought it from the Night Hunting Ground?" What do you mean? ”
"Tonight, the prince said that he drank too much wine and didn't participate, the second son of Wei refused, and the young son of the spirit king coaxed a few people, the prince had no choice but to buy the children in his cage with a hundred gold each."
"Oh." Chu Qiao nodded, "You guys are busy, I'll go back first." ”
The girl turned away calmly, the night breeze was very cold, blowing on her, and she lifted the curtain in the tent, which was warm and warm, but she did not feel sullen at all.
The girl took off her big coat and sat on the soft couch, for a long time, the corners of her mouth suddenly overflowed with a smile, like a gorgeous sunset.
On the second day, it was the field hunting conference held by the Great Xia royal family.
Those who are eligible to participate in the Great Xia Tian Hunt are not only the royal nobles, princes and ministers, and the family members of the ministers, but also the pilgrimage envoys who are close to the fiefdoms. Therefore, the scene is very magnificent. Spring hunting is not better than autumn hunting, only to see the hunting ground, snow-covered, pine forests reckless, the children of all families are all dressed to attend, brocade clothes and big furs, back bows and crossbows, brave and peerless.
The atmosphere of the Great Summer is open, not as good as the Song and Tang Dynasties, and as far as the eye can see, the woman's figure is red and red, galloping on a horse, so Chu Qiao follows Yan Xun's side, and it doesn't seem so abrupt.
"Ah Chu," Yan Xun turned his head, looked at Chu Qiao's red little face, and asked, "Is it cold?" ”
"It's not cold." Chu Qiao raised his head and said, "It's been a long time since I've gotten up so early, and the air is so good." ”
Yan Xun smiled and was about to speak, when he suddenly saw a team of people approaching quickly, Mu Hexifeng was dressed in a sable long fur, handsome and outstanding, and attracted many eyes along the way.
"Yan Shizi, I haven't seen you for a long time, don't come unharmed."
Yan Xun turned his head, his eyes narrowed slightly, he glanced at Mu He Xifeng up and down, and then smiled faintly, "Mu He Gongzi has been leading the troops all year round, you and I have really not seen each other for a long time." ”
"Yes," Mu Hexifeng smiled lightly at the corner of his mouth, "There has been a small civil unrest in Yanbei recently, or Yan Shizi's life is good, if I can hide in the imperial capital, I won't be able to, I am born to work hard." ”
Yan Xun's smile remained unchanged, nodded and said: "Those who are capable work hard, everything is for the prosperity of Daxia, and what Mu He Gongzi has done, the people of the world can see it." ”
Mu Hexifeng laughed, "Then I will accept your auspicious words." With that, he turned around and drove the horse, stopped and looked at Chu Qiao when he passed by, and said with a strange smile, "This girl looks familiar." ”
Chu Qiao returned the salute respectfully, "Young Master Mu He thinks he has recognized the wrong person, Chu Qiao is blessed, I was not lucky to see your golden face Young Master before." ”
"The best among people, Chu Qiao, a good name."
Mu Hexifeng smiled, turned around and rode away quickly.
At this moment, the drum suddenly sounded rapidly, seven long and seven short, fast and slow, only to see in the distance, King Xia and Mu Henayun slowly ascended to the high platform surrounded by a group of guards. Tens of thousands of guards stood on both sides, blocking the emperor from the people on the periphery, and under the heavy golden curtain, he couldn't see King Xia's eyebrows and eyes clearly, and could only feel the coldness slowly emanating from behind the curtain.
The audience was solemn, chanting "Long live my king" in unison, kneeling on the ground, and kowtowing.
The field hunting team, which stretched for more than 30 miles, shouted in unison, and the long-awaited hunting in Daxia finally kicked off.
Looking from afar, I saw the flags on the coast of Chishui like the sea, and the figures were longing. Chu Qiao stood beside Yan Xun, looking at the dozens of miles of camp tents under the military formation, and his eyes couldn't help but squint slightly.
The military might of Great Xia is really extraordinary. Even if it was just a royal hunt today, and such a big battle was arranged, you can imagine how majestic and majestic it would be if you really went into battle to kill the enemy.
I saw that with the king's tent as the center, the Xia people set out the plain to rush and kill the most aggressive ring camp, and the Praetorian Guard, the Green Camp Army, the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, and the Beijing Cavalry Army were arranged in four directions, southeast, northwest, and northwest, with each other from beginning to end. The two wings are set up with a wing camp high platform, located on the high slope, forming a phalanx, and guarding the central tent.
The city guards the four armies in the southeast, northwest and northwest, sets up a serpentine formation, protects the periphery of the central army, sets up signal troops every 30 steps, and places 100 people to defend at 100 steps. On the outside of the four corners of the camp, thousands of soldiers from the field legion stood guard, and the defense could be said to be watertight, and there was no gap to drill.
A long wind blew, the war horse neighed, the battle flag was unfurled, Yan Xun looked at it with great eyes, his face remained unchanged, and he said slowly in a low voice: "Ah Chu, go back and rest for a while." ”
Chu Qiao turned his head and looked at Yan Xun's face, and suddenly felt a little clear in his heart. She nodded and said in a deep voice, "Be careful. ”
Yan Xun turned his head and smiled faintly, "The opportunity is hard to find, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Achu, wait for my good news." ”
Throughout the afternoon, the atmosphere in Yan Xun's camp was in a state of tension, Chu Qiao sat in the camp, wearing a jet black robe, at first glance, he thought it was Yan Xun sitting in the big tent.
She drew the last strokes on the map, looked up, and said in a deep voice, "Remember to be careful and do not show your feet." ”
Everyone responded, "Miss Chu, don't worry!" ”
In the afternoon of the same day, the best Muhe Xifeng, the best of the young generation of the Muhe family, disappeared in the dense forest in the northwest, and the entire Muhe clan dispatched a large number of troops to search, but no trace was found. Mu He Xifeng is Mu He Nayun's nephew, and the mother of the Great Xia Kingdom wanted to use the Xiao Cavalry Battalion to send troops to find people privately, but was sternly rejected by Zhao Cheyi, who is currently in charge of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion. The mother and son parted unhappily, but at this moment, Zhao Che did not expect that today's move would bring him much disaster in the future.
Just look at the refreshing one
