The first year of Pingyi, spring.

Compared to four years ago, Kyoto can be described as dead silent.

The pedestrians on the streets have lost any vitality, the smiles on the faces of children have disappeared, and the whole of Kyoto seems to be covered in a haze.

At this moment, a bell rang in the palace.

The bell reverberates incessantly, and the roar seems to pass through the ears of everyone in Kyoto City.

Hearing this bell, the people of Kyoto were all frightened as if they had seen some demon, and then immediately entered their homes and locked the doors and windows.

In the palace at this time, after a big man rang the bell, he immediately looked at a young eunuch beside him with a smile.

"Father-in-law, it's over."

The eunuch gave him a disdainful look, then waved his hand.

"We know, get out."

The eunuch spoke in a sharp voice, and after saying a word impatiently, he turned and walked to the back.

He came to the door of a large hall, bowed his head, and said to the old eunuch at the door with a flattering face.

"Mr. Jiang, it's over."

The face of the chief manager Jiang showed disgust, and he immediately sent the young eunuch away.

"Okay, you hurry up and go, you lowly things who don't have long eyes, you accidentally collided with the emperor when the time comes, I'll see what you do."

After the young eunuch heard this, he hurriedly left, for fear that if he stayed one more step, he would see the emperor.

When the old eunuch entered the hall, he saw directly that in the hall, a child was riding on a fat man, shouting incessantly.

"Rack! Frame! You stupid horse, do you know how to go faster? ”

The child's face was filled with an innocent smile.

And the fat man was also smiling, imitating the sound of a horse in his mouth, and seemed to be very happy.

When he saw the old eunuch, he got off the fat man's body and walked in front of the old eunuch.

Seeing this, the old eunuch immediately knelt down and said respectfully.

"Your Majesty the Fourth Prince, the emperor has asked the slave family to ring the hunting bell, and it is estimated that it will come soon."

Hearing this, the child's face was full of anticipation.

"Really? Is he going to take me on a hunt again? ”

The old eunuch nodded, and before he could say anything, a figure appeared in the main hall.

The man had a black markings on his face, his eyes protruding outward, and red bloodshot all over the whites of his eyes.

If you look closely, his skin is even more frighteningly green.

Seeing this person, the eunuch immediately turned around and knelt down, and then slammed his head on the ground, and did not get up.

"Your Royal Highness."

Seeing this eunuch, the emperor showed a smile, and then slowly walked over to this side.

When the emperor approached the eunuch, he only felt a cold and biting air, which made him shiver.

But he didn't dare to show it, so he could only hold on.

"Uncle Huang, you're here, are you going to take me hunting?"

This emperor is Emperor Pingyi, Liu Yuan.

Liu Yuan looked at the child with a doting expression, and then touched his head.

"Yes, let's go with Uncle Huang."

The child nodded, and then got back on the fat man's back.

"Good horse, let's go."

Then, he walked out of the main hall with Liu Yuan and came all the way to the gate of the palace.

The guard guarding the door opened the door, and there were two rows of people kneeling outside.

The men, dressed in shabby armor, knelt on the ground and restrained with ropes, their faces full of anger.

"Dog Emperor! If you have the ability, you will kill me, etc.! ”

"The thousand-year-old foundation of the Tianyuan Dynasty will soon be destroyed in your hands! I see how you have the face to face the emperors of the past dynasties! ”

"A soldier can be killed, but not humiliated! If you have the ability, give me a good one! ”

“……”

Looking at the wailing of this group of people, a sickly smile appeared on Liu Yuan's face.

"Okay, okay, I'll satisfy you today."

After he finished speaking, with a wave of his big hand, several strands of sharp internal qi turned into blades, cutting all the ropes that bound these people.

Seeing this, these people exchanged glances, and then immediately began to flee from different directions.

At this time, the entire main street of Kyoto Castle was empty, as if it were a no-man's land.

It seems to be specifically for them to escape.

A minute later, Liu Yuan twisted his neck and said to the four princes.

"The hunt has begun, why don't you move?"

When the fourth prince heard this, his face was excited, and then he picked up a slingshot, rode the fat man and chased after those who had escaped.

Although the fat man's crawling speed was really not fast, those people were seriously injured, and they had not eaten or drunk for many days, so they couldn't run far at all.

can only be chased and beaten by this child.

When the slingshot hits a person's body, Liu Yuan will immediately use the internal force to attack that person.

It looks like the Four Princes used a slingshot to blow a person up alive.

"Hahaha, hurry up and hurry up!"

"Hahaha, look at the horse, this prey is actually in the way of another prey, and I burst it all at once, hahaha!"

"Hurry up, there's only one last prey left, and he's knocking there!"

This "hunt" lasted for more than two hours, and finally ended with the ten people turning into rotten meat.

After the hunt, the four princes were obviously interested, and complained to Liu Yuan that they hadn't had fun yet.

Hearing this, Liu Yuan smiled.

"Shall we continue to play?"

The four princes were ecstatic.

"Yes, yes."

"We're going to have something different this time."

"What's different?"

Liu Yuan said, and took the slingshot in the hands of the four princes.

"This time, you're the prey."

The fourth prince was stunned when he heard this, and before he could react, Liu Yuan had already pulled the slingshot full.

"As prey, you run quickly, or I'll have to hunt."

When the fourth prince heard this, his face changed greatly, and he immediately asked the fat man under him to run quickly.

At this time, the fat man was also sweating profusely, so he actually stood up, hugged the four princes and started running.

But in the next second, the fat man's body was instantly pierced by a stone, and he fell to the ground bleeding nonstop.

Looking at the fat man dying on the ground, the fourth prince was stunned and said something in a daze.

"Father's ......"

But he had just said two words when a stone pierced his heart in an instant.

Just like that, both of them fell in a pool of blood.

Two more hours passed, and only after there was no movement around did ordinary people dare to slowly emerge.

They smelled the thick smell of blood in the air, and the expressions on their faces did not fluctuate, and they just went on with their lives calmly.

At the same time, the Xia family, in Xia Sichou's room.

Several children of several years old surrounded Xia Sichou's side with fear on their faces, listening to Xia Sichou tell them stories.

After the story was told, he came to the courtyard and looked at the vast sky, his eyes were deep.

After a while, a subordinate ran up to him and said to him.

"Old lady, a young man came, saying that he was the apprentice of Lord Xia Luxia, and he also brought a letter."

As he spoke, he handed a letter to Xia Sichou.

The solemnity on Xia Sichou's face eased slightly, and then he took the letter and shook his head secretly.

"In this world, it's not easy to eat in order to make a living, give him two steamed buns and let him go."

The servant nodded, and was about to do so, when he heard an angry roar.

"Wait! Hurry up and bring him in! ”

The subordinate turned his head and saw Xia Sichou holding the letter in his hand with a shocked expression.
