Chapter 108, Hunting Rituals

108

"That's right."

Yu'er thought about it, this Leng Ling has always been by Brother Gu's side to protect him and work hard for him, how can he have the time to think about these things, this is difficult for him, with a master who does not think about his life's affairs, he is so old, he should have reached the age of marrying a wife and having children.

"When I have the opportunity, I will definitely find a few good women for Leng Ling."

Yu'er nodded confidently, it seems that Brother Gu doesn't worry about this, and this heavy responsibility falls on him.

I don't know how long it took, Leng Ling brought boiling water, "Madam, you can take a bath while it's hot, I specially put incense to help you relieve your fatigue." ”

Yu'er was shocked, and her face immediately showed a happy expression, she didn't expect Leng Ling's mind to be so delicate and nuanced.

"Leng Ling, you really have a heart, such a considerate man, whoever marries you is her blessing."

Yu'er couldn't help but praise Leng Ling, Leng Ling suddenly blushed, and scratched her head embarrassedly, "Madame, where did you say, Leng Ling has never been ......"

"Don't worry, just because your grandfather doesn't worry about this doesn't mean I don't worry about it."

Leng Ling was shocked, why did Mrs. suddenly worry about his life's affairs, could it be that he didn't do well enough and didn't want to let himself stay in the Gu family?

"Plop!" With a sound, Leng Ling knelt heavily on the ground, "Leng Ling has never thought of such a thing, and he has never thought of leaving the Gu family, and I hope that Mrs. and Master will not drive me away!" ”

Yu'er was suddenly confused, and hurriedly pulled Leng Ling up, "What nonsense are you talking about?" How could Brother Gu kick you out of the Gu family just because you married a wife and had children? You have worked hard for the Gu family and are a great contributor to the Gu family, how could Brother Gu bear to drive you away? Is that Big Brother Gu? ”

Yu'er deliberately turned her head and asked, Gu Ruobai was drinking tea leisurely, and she didn't pay attention to Yu'er's words, but spit out a sentence leisurely, "If you don't take a bath, Leng Ling will burn it again later." ”

Yu'er patted her head before she reacted, she had been thinking about Leng Ling marrying a wife and having children, but she forgot about it, and it should be Leng Ling who would be busy later.

"Then you two get out of here."

Yu'er shook her hand, urging the two of them, Gu Ruobai had no choice but to get up, and only when she walked out of the tent did Gu Ruobai say coldly, "Where is that kid Gu Mo?" ”

"Hui Ye, the second master explained that I was only going to save the master and Mrs. alone, it is not appropriate for too many people to know about this matter, he will go to investigate the trap early this morning, the second master seems to have some eyebrows, if he is not mistaken, this matter should be done by Princess Mingyue."

Leng Ling expressed it word for word, Gu Ruobai listened silently, did not speak, and went straight back to his bag, Leng Ling also brought hot water to Gu Ruobai, so that he could also take a comfortable bath, and after Leng Ling was busy, he took out the feeding and gently fed Chi Ming.

"Eat more, if you really like Madame, you will have to fight for Madame later, and it's up to you whether you can win or not."

Leng Ling combed the hair on Chi Ming's body over and over again, Chi Ming raised his head as if he understood, Leng Ling couldn't help laughing, it seems that this Chi Ming really likes Madame.

I don't know how long it took, Yu'er walked out of the canopy refreshed, wearing a warm yellow robe on her body, looking particularly energetic. Yu'er saw Leng Ling feeding Chi Ming, and couldn't help but pick up a handful of hay, shake it and put it in front of Chi Ming's mouth, Chi Ming's tongue rolled, and the hay was clean.

Yu'er couldn't help but show a satisfied smile on her face, "Leng Ling, when are we leaving?" It's going to be noon, if the game is late, will the emperor be angry and angry with Brother Gu? ”

Yu'er's tone was full of worry, and Leng Ling smiled comfortably, "Madam, don't worry, if this master is not there, it is estimated that they will not be able to compare." ”

Yu'er's head tilted, she didn't understand the meaning of Leng Ling's words, and when she was about to ask, she was interrupted by Gu Ruobai who came out of the tent, "Leng Ling, clean up." ”

"Yes, sir." Leng Ling put down the hay in his hand and patted Chi Ming's head.

"Are you leaving?" Yu'er raised her head and asked, Gu Ruobai nodded, Yu'er was overjoyed, she should have set off a long time ago, she didn't want to delay too late, otherwise it would be bad to annoy the emperor and anger Brother Gu.

After a while, Leng Ling carried a package on his back and led another horse over, this horse was a black horse, for some reason, after seeing Chi Ming, there was a trace of disdain in his eyes, it turned out that the horses were also compared to each other like this? Yu'er didn't dare to ask more, so she was carried by Gu Ruobai and sat on the horse.

Fortunately, Chiming is a docile horse, no matter how you look at it, it is pleasing to the eye, and Yu'er keeps touching Chiming's horsehair, and she loves it very much

"Sit tight."

Gu Ruobai gently reminded behind Yu'er, Yu'er immediately sat up straight, only to hear Gu Ruobai's whip raised, Chi Ming hissed and raised his front hooves, and ran forward with joy, Leng Ling also followed closely behind, leaving only a ride of dust behind him.

However, at this time, the hunting area is holding a majestic ceremony.

In front of a huge bonfire, a blackened skeleton resembled the bones of some animal, and on the side of the campfire was a group of soldiers beating drums, and a cavalryman with horns.

A tall soldier with a torch lit the huge bonfire in an instant, the bonfire was instantly dyed with raging fire, the neat and heavy drum beat resounded through the sky, and the black smoke filled the sky, Gu Yi and Duan Liniang sat in the distance, and everyone's expressions became more and more serious.

At the moment when the bonfire was lit, the tragic sound of the horn was blown, and the loud and melodious sound floated through the crowd, which seemed particularly sad for some reason.

At this moment, Gu Ruobai's horse ran to the outside of the team, and Yu'er looked at the flying black smoke from a distance, and couldn't help but be curious, "Brother Gu, what's going on?" ”

"It's a pre-hunt ritual."

As Gu Ruobai spoke, he took Yu'er down with his powerful right hand and put it firmly on the ground, Leng Ling also dismounted, and the three of them were quietly on the periphery, and the team in the distance didn't seem to notice them.

"The pre-hunting ritual is to pray sincerely that the mountain gods will give more beasts while not killing all the beasts, and also pray for more harvests when hunting in the coming year."

Gu Ruobai explained, Yu'er couldn't help frowning, this ceremony, as if it was covering up his crimes, he couldn't see where his piety was, Gu Ruobai seemed to see Yu'er's thoughts, and then added, "As you think, all this is just a ritual to cover up, if there is really so much mercy, there will not be such a boring game." ”

Yu'er couldn't help but laugh out loud, Gu Ruobai was puzzled, "What are you laughing at?" Yu'er desperately covered her mouth to hold back a smile and shook her head.

Boring races? This is a game specially prepared by the emperor for your mother, if it is known by Brother Gu, I don't know what Brother Gu thinks in his heart.

However, Duanfei is because of the hunting that another person likes, and when she thinks of this, Yu'er's heart aches faintly, and her happy face just now darkens again.

Suddenly, the drumming stopped, Gu Yi in the distance didn't know what he was saying, but the distance was too far for Yu'er to hear clearly, Gu Ruobai knocked her head on tiptoe, "Don't listen, it's nothing more than the rules of the last hunt." ”

Yu'er pouted to express her protest against Gu Ruobai's violence, "You still have to listen, if you don't understand some rules, won't you lose?" ”

The rules are still concerned, she knows that Brother Gu participates every year, and she is already familiar with the rules in her heart, but she is still worried about what if she can use her own place, if she doesn't understand the rules, then won't Brother Gu lose because of her?

Suddenly, the crowd dispersed, and Yu'er panicked, could it be that the game had started?

"It's time to choose a hunting area."

Gu Ruobai picked up Chi Ming and walked towards the crowd, Yu'er followed closely behind, choosing the hunting area? Why are the rules of the game so complicated? Yu'er was thinking in her mind, but Yu Guang found that everyone was looking at her with a strange look, and Yu'er realized that everyone gave them a way, and only the three of them were walking forward on the whole road, and the emperor looked at them with an angry face.

Chu Mingyue was even more shocked, she gritted her teeth and looked at Hongxin, Hongxin was also shocked and puzzled, "Princess...... I've seen her ......"

"Shut up!" Chu Mingyue lowered her voice fiercely, it was really not enough to succeed and more than to lose, and it was impossible to do any trivial things!

"Son-in-law, see father."

Gu Ruobai bent down slightly and bowed, and Yu'er hurriedly followed and saluted, slightly blessed.

"You and I explain where you went all day and last day?"

Gu Yi's majestic voice hid a trace of anger, and Yu'er trembled in her heart when she heard it.

"Back to my father, my son had a great time yesterday, chatted with the Fengyun Sect Master, and settled in the Fengyun Sect Master's mansion." Gu Ruobai said lightly, if Yu'er didn't know, she still felt like it was true.

Gu Yi's face turned dark instantly, and he raised his voice and asked Fengyun, "Fengyun, is there such a thing?" ”

Fengyun hesitated a little, but when he saw the expression of the windbreaker Cai's eyebrows, he couldn't help but replied hesitantly, "Uh...... Back to the emperor, there is such a thing, I met the second prince late and talked very happily, so I stayed in the mansion last night. ”

The windbreaker Cai on the side looked at Gu Mo with a look of surprise, as if he was asking for praise and praise, just then Gu Mo suddenly said to himself, let himself beg his father to tell a lie, so that he would consider considering her marrying into the Gu family, and finally under the hard work of the windbreaker Cai, Fengyun couldn't resist his beloved daughter, so he had to speak with a clear conscience.

Gu Yi was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Gu Ruobai to really be in Fengyun Mansion, Gu Yi had no choice but to give up.

Yu'er was even more surprised in her heart, she didn't expect that Brother Gu inadvertently made up a lie, and the sect leader of Fengyun could actually help to speak, which couldn't help but surprise Yu'er.

Gu Ruobai smiled slightly, in fact, he was also gambling, but the bet was won, it seems that Gu Mo has started to work the ghost girl in the windbreaker.

"In that case, the second prince should also hurry up and choose a hunting area, today's hunting competition is about to begin."
