Chapter 80: The Hunting Race

In the early morning of the second day, after breakfast and a rest of about half an hour, the emperor and Mu Jiechen rushed to the royal hunting ground.

Hundreds of Praetorian Guards opened the way in front, all of them with solemn expressions on their faces, vigilantly observing the situation on the side of the road, one hand on the saber at their waist, their nerves tense, not daring to relax in the slightest. Hundreds of open road guards are followed by the general of Zhenwei who is on a par with the emperor - Mu Jiechen, and after the emperor and the general of Zhenwei Mu Jiechen is the three sage kings and the king of the Dongling Kingdom!

Behind the emperor, the long Praetorian Guards dragged out a long distance, densely packed with black and pressed a group, the emperor went hunting, and the Praetorian Guards accompanying him reached 1,000 people, and all of them were elites in a hundred miles. Thousands of Praetorian Guards had already stood guard on the outskirts of the hunting ground before the Emperor arrived, welcoming the arrival of the Emperor's holy chariot.

Located in the western suburbs of the imperial capital, the royal hunting ground is a primeval forest with a history of 100 years and has not been developed the day after tomorrow, which contains many fierce and rare beasts.

Not only because this is a royal hunting ground, but ordinary hunters are not allowed to set foot in this forest. And because there are fierce beasts hidden in the depths of this forest, no one wants to make such a joke with their lives!

Today, on the outskirts of this primeval forest, thousands of royal guards emitting an icy aura had already stood in the early morning, each of them holding a sword, their expressions were solemn, and their bodies vaguely exuded a cold killing aura.

Three steps and one post.

At the end of the day, the mighty procession arrived at the royal hunting grounds.

The emperor is dressed in a golden uniform, which makes him more and more angry and self-assured, and the innate imperial domineering that comes out of his bones is impossible to ignore. He is over forty years old, because he is well-maintained, he looks like he is in his early thirties, he has a flavor charm that belongs to a mature man, his sword eyebrows are stretched, and his deep dark eyes show a shallow warm and peaceful smile.

Mu Juechen was dressed in a well-fitting dark robe, outlining his slender and sturdy figure well, and he pedaled a pair of black riding boots on his feet, shining faintly in the sunlight. His hair was tied up high with a black jade crown of the same color as his robe, simple and neat yet elegant and noble, and there was no expression on his cold and handsome face.

The Three Sages King and the Liwang Zema stopped beside Mu Jiechen and were silent, waiting for the Emperor of the Huang Dynasty to speak. The Three Sages King is still wearing a moon-white robe, with a free and easy, elegant and elegant posture; The king is dressed in an ice-blue silk robe, handsome and sunny.

The emperor glanced at the black and oppressive Praetorian Guards outside the field, his eyes flashed slightly, his lips opened, and he said in a low, mellow and majestic voice: "You all retreat to a hundred steps away, without my permission, you can't take a step closer to the hunting ground, otherwise you will be dealt with according to military law, do you understand?" ”

"Yes!" Thousands of Janissaries responded in unison.

The commander of the Praetorian Guard stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, this is absolutely inappropriate. There are fierce beasts in the forest from time to time, and they must not exit the hunting ground to protect the emperor's safety! "In case something happens, the Praetorian Guards are all outside the hunting grounds, who will come to the rescue?

The emperor's face sank, not angry and arrogant, and he said in a deep voice: "With General Zhenwei by my side, you can rest assured." General Zhenwei's martial arts are among the best in our Huang Dynasty, if even he can't protect me, then no amount of Praetorian Guards can protect my safety. If there is really an accident, it is also my fate, and my fate should be like this! Well, no more, let them all step down! ”

Mu Jiechen pursed his lips and remained silent on the side, as if he couldn't hear what the emperor said, and ignored it.

Out of the corner of his eye, the Three Sages glanced at the handsome and bewitching man who was high on horseback, and there was no expression in his handsome face, or more appropriately, there was no expression on his face at all, although he could not see the emotion in his eyes from this angle, he could also feel the coldness in his eyes.

Even if he was by the side of the Emperor of the Huang Dynasty, he didn't have a good face on his face. He was really as rumored, and in front of the emperor, he was also cold and indifferent. will not deliberately change themselves in order to please the emperor in order to cater to the emperor's character.

He didn't even give the face of the emperor of the Huang Dynasty, let alone others. A hint of interest flashed in the ice-gray eyes of the Three Wise Kings, and he couldn't help but be a little curious about who he would change with such indifference.

"Yes!" There was a hint of hesitation in Xiang Nan's eyes, and after waiting for a long time, he saw that General Zhenwei had not said anything, and finally had to suppress the doubts in his heart, and answered in a deep voice!

Seeing that Xiang Nan refused to leave for a long time, the emperor couldn't help glaring at him and said, "Why are you still here?" Didn't I tell you to step down? The tone was imperceptive.

"Your Majesty, let the ministers stay by your side to protect you......" Before he finished speaking, he was intercepted by the emperor and said, "No need." I'm going to compete with General Zhenwei today to see who has more prey, and you're going to take them around here and wait for me, hahaha......"

The sound of hearty laughter shook the sky over the hunting ground, and it was heard far and wide.

"Your Majesty of the Honorable Huang Dynasty......" The young man's clear voice came, and the emperor looked at him, only to see him saluting the emperor on horseback, and said: "Your Majesty's interest is so high today, the competition between the two people is really dull and boring, and the crowd is more lively, I don't know if the third brother and I have this honor, can we join the hunting competition between His Majesty the Phoenix Dynasty and General Zhenwei!" ”

The young man's handsome and sunny face, the smile was just right, there was no frivolous pat in his eyes, only sincerity and expectation that people couldn't bear to refuse, as if he really wanted to ride and hunt with the emperor of the Huang Dynasty.

The emperor looked at the young man with a smile, his face was expressionless, his eyes were gentle on the surface, but there was a little exploration in the depths of his eyes, and the depths of his eyes were dark and unclear.

"I have heard for a long time that the emperors of the Huang Dynasty all have the honorific title of emperor on horseback, and in my opinion, Your Majesty's equestrian skills must be very exquisite, I don't know if we have this honor......" The young man saw that he was silent, and he was not annoyed, and his tone was sincere and polite, full of yearning.

"Hahaha......" The emperor's hearty laughter spread far away, and he laughed and said: "Presumably, this is one of the most favored and valued kings of Dongling Emperor, I can't imagine that the king is young, but he has sharp teeth!" It can be seen that the young man's words are very useful to the emperor.

The young man smiled and said politely: "Your Majesty of the Phoenix Dynasty has praised it falsely!" I wonder what Your Majesty thinks? The young man secretly said in his heart: Sure enough, the old saying is answered, gold wears silver and wears sycophants!

"Good! Since the king is so sincere, then go with me! Turning to Mu Jiechen, he smiled in a good mood: "General Zhenwei shouldn't mind two more people!" ”

"There is no dissenting opinion!" Mu Jiechen said lightly, and his cold eyes glanced at the young man in the ice blue dress!

"Excellent! Let's go! Meet here at Shenshi! The emperor gave an order, and Mu Jiechen took the lead in riding his horse towards the depths of the forest. The Three Sages King and the Emperor left in the opposite direction from Mu Jiechen, and the emperor looked at the dark figure that quickly disappeared into the depths of the forest, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.
