Chapter 611: Crisis in the Forest
"Be cautious, this autumn hunt is destined to be not peaceful." King Chen sighed. There was already movement around, so I couldn't talk to King Jing anymore.
King Jing also heard that someone was coming nearby, and he didn't dare to ask anything more.
The two of them concentrated on hunting, and in less than an hour, they had already harvested a lot. The people who entered the forest each brought dry food, and lunch was naturally settled in the forest. After a hurried lunch, the hunt began. The morning was a very peaceful hour, and in the afternoon, King Chen became extremely vigilant.
"Fourth brother, let's find our father as soon as possible." King Chen leaned closer to King Jing and said in a low voice.
"Looking for my father's ......" King Jing originally wanted to ask, "What are you doing with your father", but when he saw his third brother's solemn face, he didn't dare to say anything. He just nodded and said, "Okay." ”
In fact, King Chen can't be sure that King Yong's side must be unfavorable to his father, but in the case of expectations, he naturally has to be cautious. It is better to do more useless work than to make a mistake.
If his father really had something in the forest, he would not forgive himself in his life.
For a while, he thought about it carefully, and felt that if he was the eldest brother and wanted to rebel, what method would he use? Just have a soldier ready to help him? Naturally not.
The man he had to deal with was his father, his father. Since he was a child, he has watched his father strategize, how could he think that he would be able to succeed by taking advantage of the opportunity of Mengshan hunting and using some soldiers to fight hard? Naturally, I still want to act in secret, first solve my father's emperor, and then use force to restrain these people in Mengshan to seek the emperor's throne, isn't it better?
But around my father, the defense is very tight on weekdays, and the things at the entrance have to be tested for poison by the little eunuch. After all, the best chance to do it is when it is time to hunt. After all, there are no eyes for arrows on the hunting grounds, and the dense trees are good for shelter. It's not difficult to get rid of the guards around my father. Even, if the opportunity is right, you can directly release a dark arrow to get rid of your father, and you don't care about the guards around your father.
So when he was sure that his eldest brother was going to do it, he must not take it lightly. But he didn't have to worry about the hour he first entered the forest in the morning. At that time, it was the time when the guards around my father were vigilant, and it was also the time when my father himself was sober. But after hunting for a while, my father became happy, and his vigilance naturally lowered his vigilance. Those guards will also be somewhat influenced by their father.
I hope the big brother doesn't do that.
When he conceived it before, he thought it was the best idea. But I also thought about it, if it was him, would he kill his father for the throne? The answer is yes...... No.
So, if you change to a big brother, will the big brother be?
He can't say whether the eldest brother will or won't die, so he can only plan for the worst.
On the other side, King Yong's side has also taken action.
In this forest, there are secret guards sent by Zhou Yan. These men were let in after they had entered the woods, and in the most remote places, they opened the small door for the keeper to enter and exit. There is also a weaving star who followed King Yong and entered the forest as an entourage. At this time, they had already come back from a circle in the forest and determined what the emperor said. From this, it is not difficult to infer the scope of the emperor's next action.
In fact, it is inconvenient for the secret guard to act in the forest, but it will startle the snake. Therefore, after finding out where the emperor is, he left only two secret guards, one is Zhixing and the other is Zhou Yan's. Weaving Star went to stare at King Chen and King Yong, and Zhou Yan's secret guard went to stare at the emperor. As long as Weaving Star sends a signal, Zhou Yan's secret guard can do it. In his hand was an arrow engraved with the word "Jing."
As long as this arrow comes out, whether it succeeds or not, King Jing will not be able to get out of it. But the order he got was that he had to kill the emperor. If not, at least you can't be caught. But the end result must be death. If he can escape, he will only die, and if he can't escape, he will die and his family.
King Chen and King Jing searched in the forest for a while, but did not look at the emperor's figure. But when there was no one around, King Chen whispered in King Jing's ear about King Yong's possible plans. When King Jing heard this, he was really surprised: "No...... No...... Can't you? ”
"I hope I can't," King Chen's expression was solemn, "but if it's true...... So we have to be vigilant. ”
"Third brother, are we just going to let him ...... Now that we've seen it, shouldn't we do something to stop it? King Jing was still immersed in the shock of hearing this
King Chen looked solemn, there was no sense of shock, let alone a joke, he just asked, "Do you want me to win?" ”
"Of course I want to," King Jing lowered his voice even more and said, "But...... What if, what if you lose...... Third brother, this loss, but there is no possibility of turning over. ”
"Third brother", King Jing wiped his neck, "Once we lose, our lives ......"
King Chen's eyes looked into the depths of the forest, and he didn't know what he could see. Just sighed and said, "I don't want to drag it anymore." ”
Such a struggle, no matter when it ends, is always at risk. Since the eldest brother made a final move first, why didn't he take advantage of the situation? Timing, seizing the opportunity is the best time. In this matter, on the surface, it seems that the eldest brother and the Yongwang Mansion have taken the lead, but in fact, it is he who has taken the lead. Only by hiding in the shadows can you control the overall situation.
But in this overall situation, there is inevitably a corner that cannot be seen. If the problem arises precisely in this corner, then he ...... You can only lose.
"Fourth...... Are you willing to live and die with your third brother? King Chen looked at King Jing and asked solemnly.
The two of them have the best relationship since childhood, but they have never asked such a serious question similar to a confession, how embarrassing. But now, even if he knew the answer, he wanted to ask. As if to give yourself some courage.
"This is nature", King Jing smiled, "Third brother, I don't live and die with you, who do I live and die with?" You can't dump me! Since I was a child, everyone knows that I am the best with you, if you suddenly dump me, how faceless I am! ”
"Haha......" King Chen smiled, "I want to get rid of you, but I can't get rid of you!" ”
With that, the two brothers rode away on horseback. Unexpectedly, in such a situation, they still have the interest of "talking about love".
Weaving Star followed them for a long time, seeing that their posture was looking for someone. The two of them are already here, who else can they look for? Is it to find the emperor? Weaving Star felt that in this case, it could not be delayed any longer. If they delay any longer, when they find the emperor, the situation will definitely not be good.
Your Highness means that you must succeed today. If King Chen and King Jing find the emperor, if they keep following the emperor and don't leave, won't there be no chance?
So it's better to take advantage of this time to send a signal and let the Zhou family do it directly.
Weaving Star watched King Chen and King Jing go farther away, and then released a young eagle with a red ribbon tied to its paws behind him. This is the communication thing she has newly trained in the dark factory, and it is specially used for use on the Mengshan Mountain. There are many such young eagles on Mengshan Mountain, and they will not be suspected when they fly in the air.
But the red silk on the paws is rare, or even almost non-existent. The people on the hunting ground will not deliberately mark any young eagle, but those who enter the hunting ground will not have any suspicions when they see this young eagle that is the same as the young eagle in the hunting ground. It's just a red ribbon, and at most it's just a novelty.
King Chen and King Jing were looking for the emperor's traces, and suddenly saw a young eagle not far overhead. If it's just the eagle itself, there's nothing peculiar about it. But there is a faint red dot on its paws.
"Third brother, what are you looking at?" King Jing asked.
"Fourth brother, look, is there a red dot on the talons of the young eagle?" King Chen asked, pointing to the young eagle.
King Jing raised his head and looked at it carefully, and said, "Indeed...... This young eagle is so peculiar, could it be that it has a red claw? Third brother, wait for me to shoot down and take a look. ”
"Huh?" King Chen pressed King Jing's hand and gave him a look.
King Jing immediately understood, and the two followed the young eagle.
But in fact, what the eagle flew away was only in the direction of King Yong, not the emperor's side. Let this young eagle out, just because King Yong and Zhou Yan are not far from the emperor at this time. And the secret guard of the Zhou family has a treasure in his hand - a long eyepiece. Looking through the goggles, you can see the red dots on the eagle even from a considerable distance.
The reason why this young eagle will fly to Yongwang is because this young eagle only recognizes two masters, one is her and the other is Yongwang. The secret guard of the Zhou family had nothing to do with them, and the young eagle did not recognize him; The second is for concealment.
What if the eagle flies to the emperor's side, and happens to be discovered by King Chen and King Jing on the way? Didn't they follow this clue to find the emperor? Therefore, it is necessary to lead them to the side of King Yong to ensure that the secret guards of the Zhou family act perfectly.
Of course, this second reason was only after His Royal Highness told her the plan yesterday.
King Chen saw that the young eagle was used for communication, but he did not expect that the young eagle would lead him in the wrong direction. When I saw this young eagle for a while, I just thought that if I followed it, I would be able to find my father. I really didn't expect that there would be such a big surprise in such a simple communication thing.
The two followed the eagle all the way to the southeast, and the more they walked, the more remote they became. Suddenly, an arrow shot out of the forest, piercing the eagle's chest, and the eaglet fell straight down.
Seeing that this person who made the shot was so ruthless, King Chen secretly sighed in his heart! But what is the reason, and how can you think it out for a while?
So he hurriedly followed the direction of the arrow, only to see King Yong and Zhou Qingfeng rushing to collect a young eagle. But this young eagle is no different from the other young eagles in this forest. There are no red paws.
"Yo, third brother and fourth brother, it's a coincidence!" This time, King Yong didn't have a cold face when he saw King Chen, but smiled.
King Chen secretly sighed "not good" in his heart, so he just smiled with him: "It seems that there is nothing good to hunt here, I will go around elsewhere." ”
"Third brother, don't go, let's talk for a while! What have you hunted this morning? I see how you don't get anything? Brother, I've gained a lot here! King Yong laughed.
King Chen saw that he wanted to delay him and the fourth, where could he be lazy? He gestured to the fourth child and walked back.
He was waiting for King Yong to rebel, but he couldn't really watch King Yong be unfavorable to his father. Because he knows that with the character of the eldest brother, once he decides something, he must do it. Even if he can't do anything to his father in the forest, he will choose to hit it hard instead of giving up.
