Night fell, and the hunting teams returned to the camp one after another. Each of them had several prey in their hands, and the wild deer were the most numerous. One by one, the firewood was set up and the fire was burned, and the prey that had been caught was stripped of its fur, washed and brushed white, and roasted on the fire. The smell of animal oil wafting into the tents of the garrison when it fell on the matches, and the smell of fragrant meat wafted into the tents on the station, attracting people to visit from time to time.

Liu Yu was the first to enjoy the food, and he took the venison carefully cut by Liu Gonggong, tasted it, and couldn't help but praise it. The dinner party accompanied by singing and dancing was carried out happily.

Liu Yu smiled and asked his sons, "What have you gained today?" ”

Liu Yifu is accurate in archery and good at horses, and is a well-deserved hunter's crown. He puffed out his chest proudly, waiting for praise from others.

Xie Hui stood up and complimented without hesitation: "Your Majesty, today is the son of the world who has gained a lot, and the son of the world takes two things with one stone, which is amazing!" He is a well-deserved leader today. ”

When Liu Yu heard this, his eyes were full of smiles, and he said with relief: "Fu'er has never disappointed me. Then he turned to the other princes and said, "There is still one day left in the competition, you don't have to be discouraged, the first place will be rewarded." ”

The princes stood up and responded: "The sons obey the order." ”

"Where's the painting?" Liu Yu looked at the crowd below.

Hua Yan stepped forward from the crowd and bowed to the ground and said, "The courtiers see the emperor." ”

"Get up."

"Yes."

Hua Yan stood up and only bowed his head in obedience.

Liu Yu suddenly smiled and said, "I heard that you also went with you today?" How many prey can you shoot? ”

Huayan only cares about the Longmen Hall, and has long forgotten about hunting, not to mention that she never kills. "Back to the emperor, I never hit the prey."

Mrs. Zhang pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "Your Majesty, don't embarrass her, she is a lady after all, and a joke is really not true?" ”

There was a faint burst of laughter from the hall.

The painting face is unmoved, calm.

Hua Xiashan got up to relieve her and said: "Back to the emperor, although my daughter is not subject to discipline on weekdays and is used to being barbaric, she never dares to kill. Sneaking out this time is just for fun. ”

Liu Yu couldn't help but joke when he heard this: "It looks like a tiger, but it's actually a hare?" Hahaha, okay, I'm not trying to embarrass you, if you want to go out in the future, you just go, you don't have to sneak out. ”

Huayan leaned over and replied respectfully: "Emperor Xie, Huayan obeys orders." ”

After saying that, he stepped back.

"The emperor is so eccentric, he only lets her travel at will."

"Who made her the daughter of the painting Taishou! Even if she causes big trouble, I don't think the emperor will blame her. ”

In the dark, the two discussed secretly. The painting was missing, and the diameter walked in front of them. At this time, she was only worried about Shenglan who went out to find out the news.

She came to the outskirts of the tent and waited anxiously.

"Why did the painter leave the table?" Wang Meiren didn't know when, she appeared behind Huayan.

Huayan hurriedly leaned over to salute, "Huayan has seen a beauty." ”

Wang Meiren affectionately lifted the painting face, "No need to be polite." ”

"How is the beauty here?" Hua Yan couldn't help but ask.

Wang Meiren lowered her head and thought about it, and said with a smile: "This palace is just here to relax." She suddenly took Huayan's hand and said lovingly: "I heard that the car is very close to you?" ”

"No, beauty, you misunderstood, we're just ordinary friends." Hua Yan hurriedly explained.

Wang Meiren shook her head and smiled: "This palace didn't misunderstand anything. You don't have to worry, Hongu is happy to let you go with the car. ”

Huayan looked at Wang Meiren in surprise, but she couldn't see any clues on her gentle face.

Wang Meiren smiled and patted her hand and said, "Scared you, right?" Don't be nervous, Hongu just likes you very much. In the Japanese palace in Flower Lane, you can see that you are different from other girls. ”

Huayan laughed self-deprecatingly: "I'm more rude." ”

"No, on the contrary, you know how to advance and retreat. Your performance in front of everyone is nothing but your disguise. This is very good, rein in the edge, and wait for the time to strike. Wang Meiren put down her hand and looked into the dark distance.

Decades of court life have made Wang Meiren practice a pair of fiery eyes, she is a person who understands and knows how to protect herself under the threat of Mrs. Zhang.

"Does the beauty have something on her mind?" Hua Yan asked.

"As soon as I entered the palace gate, it was as deep as the sea, and the painting girl said, is it possible to land in this palace?" Wang Meiren looked into the distance, as if seeking an answer from heaven.

Wang Meiren's state of mind, I don't know how to paint her face. She has been oppressed by Mrs. Zhang for decades, and now the dispute between the prince is intensifying, and Mrs. Zhang and Wang Meiren are also fighting openly and secretly, her words are not only confiding, but also asking for help.

"Yes, it's just going to be a storm. It depends on whether the beauty can stand the test. Huayan took the cloak from the maid on the side and draped it on Wang Meiren's shoulder.

When Wang Meiren heard this, she grabbed Huayan's hand tightly and said, "Is that really the case?" ”

Hua Yan smiled and nodded: "Wang Meiren came here on purpose, didn't she just want to hear me tell you the answer in person?" ”

"You're really clever." Wang Meiren exclaimed, she held Huayan's hand tighter, "This palace has indeed sent someone to investigate you, you have a close relationship with Taoyuan, and the hall master of Taoyuan is your father-in-law, you are not only good at riding and shooting, but also strong in martial arts." ”

"I guess Wang Meiren only noticed me on the day of my sister's wedding, right? Considering the impact, the father-in-law did not come to the wedding in person, but only asked people to carry a letter, but he didn't expect it to cause a lot of waves. Hua Yan said slowly.

Wang Meiren nodded and said: "It's also because you are close to the car on weekdays, and this palace is starting to feel a little uneasy, so I investigated you, you won't blame this palace, right?" ”

Hua Yan shook his head and smiled meaninglessly. "The third prince is a good prince who cares about the people, and the beauties will also enjoy good fortune in the future."

"With you by his side, Hongu is very relieved. This palace only looks forward to having a deeper fate with you. Wang Meiren glanced at the painting meaningfully, and then walked away with a smile.

Huayan looked at the distant Wang Meiren, and under the original weak appearance, there was hidden wisdom and strength. It seems that she is not looking at the wrong person.

"Miss! I found it. Katsuran ran from the darkness and said breathlessly.

Huayan wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead for her, and handed over the water bag, "I'm tired, let's drink saliva and rest first." ”

Sheng Lan took the water bag and drank a few big sips, but she didn't have time to wipe the water stains at the corners of her mouth, and hurriedly said: "Miss, that Longmen Hall is hidden at the foot of Song Mountain, I have seen it, there are more than 300 people in total." The cottage is very hidden, but I don't know why, they have been sharpening their weapons. ”

"Sharpening weapons?" Paint your face thoughtfully. “”

"Miss, they don't want to assassinate the emperor, do they?" Shenglan asked nervously.

Hua Yan shook his head and said suspiciously: "This doesn't make sense, they are used to the freedom of the rivers and lakes, what benefits can they get by assassinating the emperor?" The Golden Kirin should have received my warning by now. We'll be able to get out of here after tomorrow anyway. With that, she immediately walked towards the soldiers' camp.

"Girl, please stop, this is an important place in the barracks, and you are not allowed to enter without an edict." A guard soldier intervened.

"Please inform Commander Nie and ask for a meeting." Hua Yan arched his hand and said.

"Paint your face?" The soldier exchanged glances with the other two, "What's the matter with you?" ”

Hua Yan smiled politely: "I will talk to Commander Nie." ”

The soldiers on guard knew that the figure in front of them was not easy to offend, so they agreed to go and report it. After a while, Nie Feng really appeared.

"Commander Nie, please take a step to speak." Huayan took Nie Feng to no one's place before he said, "Commander Nie, please forgive Huayan for his recklessness." ”

Nie Feng arched his hand and replied: "Why did Miss Hua come to the crime of recklessness...... who knew that as soon as the words fell, he found that the girl behind Hua Yan was the woman in black that he met on the Queen Mother Mountain that day.

Huayan pulled Sheng Lan to him and said apologetically, "It seems that Commander Nie has found out." ”

He suddenly understood something, and said to Hua Yan: "What is the purpose of Miss Hua sending someone to test me? ”

Hua Yan turned around and said with his back hand: "Commander Nie has a good ability, and he can see through it at a glance." I want to test your kung fu, but I don't have bad intentions, so I won't talk about that for now. She turned around, looked at Nie Feng and continued, "At the foot of Song Mountain, there is a cottage with more than 300 people gathered, led by Jin Qilin, who is the master of Longmen Hall who was defeated and became a Kou. I have come today just to remind you to be wary of them. ”

"Do they still dare to invade the imperial army?" Nie Feng further said.

"Commander Nie must not underestimate them, although there are not many of them, after all, they are all people in the martial arts, I am afraid that it is not so easy to deal with when they really fight. The words have been brought, farewell. After finishing speaking, he strode back.

Nie Feng wanted to reach out to keep Shenglan, but he never acted, and he suddenly felt that he had no reason.

Hua Yan walked a few steps, suddenly stopped, turned to look at Sheng Lan and said, "He didn't have anything to say to you just now, but he didn't say it?" ”

Sheng Lan shook her head hurriedly, "No...... I didn't see it. ”

The painting was compact in front of Sheng Lan's eyes, looked at her carefully for a while, and then walked away with a smile.

By the time the two of them returned to their tents, the feast had already dispersed, and everyone had gone back to their tents to rest.

Huayan opened the curtain and found Xu Suhua sitting in the room waiting. "Su Hua? What are you doing here? ”

Xu Suhua happily stood up to greet him, "What else do you say, I waited for you for another hour, where did you go?" ”

Huayan pulled Xu Suhua to sit down together, poured a cup of tea and put it in her hand, "Take a walk outside and eliminate food." She turned to Shenglan and said, "Shenglan, go back and rest." ”

"Yes." Shenglan turned and exited the tent.

While drinking hot tea, Huayan looked at Xu Suhua, and suddenly smiled: "Suhua, do you have something to say to me?" ”

Xu Suhua asked in surprise, "Do you see it?" ”

He smiled, "I saw it yesterday. She leaned over to Xu Suhua's side and asked, "You have deliberately looked for me several times, what is the matter?" ”

Xu Suhua suddenly lowered his head and blushed, and whispered: "I only tell you, you are not allowed to tell others." ”

Huayan saw the clue and said with a smile: "Which handsome and dashing son can make our eldest sister Xu so fascinated by him?" ”

Xu Suhua pretended to be angry and spat at Hua Yan, lowering his head even lower, "Don't make fun of me." ”

Hua Yan retracted his joking gesture and said seriously: "Okay, you just tell me, what do I need to do for you?" ”

Xu Suhua raised his head and secretly did some mental work, and then said to Huayan: "Actually, you guessed right." Have you ever noticed the person who often walks by the side of the third prince? ”

"The people around the third prince?" Huayan scratched his head and pondered.
