Chapter 137: Distress
The horse galloped forward, and Ruan Yuyi was surrounded by the new emperor. The horse's spine rose and fell vividly, supporting her, and she could even feel the rhythmic pull of its flesh.
Because the horses were running forward, she couldn't help leaning back. The clothes of the two were close to each other, leaving no gaps, and the warmth from her back almost burned her.
The cold wind suddenly rose, invaded her muscles and bones, and blew her painfully, but her face burned badly.
"Your Majesty, can you go slower?" She whispered.
The little lady in front of her had her knuckles white, trembling slightly, and was so upset that she couldn't do anything, and bumped into his arms from time to time, and finally had to lean back.
He chuckled, his breath brushing the back of her neck, "Hold on." ”
Concubine Shu silently looked at their distant backs, her expression not sad or happy. She didn't seem to intend to ride her horse forward, but sat quietly. The horse seemed to sense her meaning, but did not move.
"Mother, try clamping the horse's body and pulling the reins." Jiang Qi drove his horse forward slowly and stopped at the side of her horse.
She was stunned for a moment, and then she retracted her distant thoughts, and tried to do as he said, and the horse really took a step.
Jiang Qi reminded on the side, and said warmly, "Niangniang doesn't have to worry, just scatter at will." I wasn't going to hunt with them anyway. ”
The wind brought up his long hair like ink, and the corners of his lips were smiling, and his face was like a crown of jade.
He really didn't need to fight with those forbidden ministers, they were in order to behave in front of the new emperor, and the new emperor lowered his blue eyes. But he Jiang Qi is not unaware of what kind of temperament others don't know, and no one will force him to participate.
Not to mention that he is not here, now that he is the son of the world, he will not be short of brocade clothes and jade food, as long as he does not have any major incidents, the position of King Yu will undoubtedly fall on his head, where is there still such a need to bother.
Concubine Shu looked forward.
Lin Shen didn't know what to do, the branches were staggered and colluded, like a canopy, sieving away the light in the daytime, and it was so dim that it showed the air of forest.
But Concubine Shu is a competitive one, where is she willing to listen, she gritted her teeth and clamped the horse's belly suddenly. The horse understood and ran forward quickly, but no matter how fast she was, she would not be able to find Jiang Huaiyang and the others.
Jiang Qi didn't expect that this Rong clan was so bold because he was only in contact with this technique for the first time. Thinking that he had to be held responsible for her fall, he had no choice but to hurriedly ride his horse to keep up.
At first, she rode the horse steadily, and her expression did not panic at all.
But in the end, it was a little rusty, and when the horse turned, she could not dodge, and her body fell uncontrollably to the side, and the reins were taken off, and the man fell from the horse's back.
She fell to the ground, her sideburns disheveled, her head hanging down, and she couldn't make out her expression.
Jiang Qi was startled, and ordered the guards around him to chase back the uncontrolled horse, and he turned over and dismounted, strode forward, and squatted down, "Is Niangniang okay?" As he spoke, he secretly wondered if it was appropriate to pull her at this time.
But there was no need for him to be entangled, Concubine Shu borrowed the tree on the side, stood up on her own, and patted the dust off her body.
"It doesn't matter." Her face was indifferent, and she hid the palpitations.
The horse was spiritual, and felt that there was no one on it, so it slowly stopped running and running. So the guards didn't go far. Seeing him turn back, Concubine Shu took the reins from his hand and neatly remounted the horse.
She looked straight ahead, her eyes shining, as if she had vented her anger at being snubbed by the new emperor through this way.
But he said that after Jiang Huaiyang took Ruan Yuyi to hunt a few beasts, he didn't need to pay attention to it, and his own guards put away those prey, and flattered him a few words. He was a little confused.
The first emperor was light and martial, naturally not good at riding and shooting, so every time he hunted, he tied the prey in advance, and put it in front of the first emperor, he only had to release the arrows.
But Jiang Huaiyang has been on the battlefield for a long time, and his arrows are used to kill the enemy, and I don't know how many enemy blood sacrificed his arrows, making it more and more dazzling. He would have felt that such a hunting method was tightly restrained.
So he opened the hunting ground so that his guards didn't have to follow.
Xu is chest behind him is broad, even if the scene in front of him is getting denser and darker, Ruan Yuyi is not too worried. She was a little numb and moved slightly.
He noticed, glancing at her, "Uncomfortable? ”
The little lady's hand grasped the horse's mane, and she was already a little out of strength, and she was barely holding it. The neckline of his riding suit was lowered to reveal a snowy neck, and he leaned forward slightly, his nose filled with the light scent of flowers.
She shook her head slightly, silent.
He didn't ask again, slowing down intentionally or unintentionally, and kissing her earlobe distractedly.
I don't know how long it took for the two to get off the horse and take a break. She looked around, and there were only lush trees, blocking the light so tightly that it was very difficult to discern the direction.
In the past, I might occasionally meet the princes and ministers next to me, but now there is no one in sight, as if they have disappeared in a moment.
Jiang Huaiyang also felt that something was wrong, and casually pulled out the arrow on the neck of the fox that he had just hunted below, and there was a barb on the arrow, and some flesh and blood were hooked out, and the fox's blood splattered out and landed on the back of his hand.
He retrieved the arrow, inserted it back into the barrel, and looked around.
There was a dead silence around, and the rustling sound of the leaves in the wind seemed deafening.
Gradually, however, the movement grew louder and louder, and it was no longer the sound of the leaves crumbling, but the sound of dead branches being trampled off.
"Your Majesty—" she grabbed him by the sleeve, a little uneasy, "let's go back." ”
The horse neighed and ducked back, helplessly tied to the reins around his neck, and could only stare at the horse's hooves.
His gaze was sharp, and he swept straight over.
It's too late.
What caught my eye was a half-man-tall brown bear, grinning with white sharp teeth, saliva sticking between the teeth, and a pair of black eyes staring at them, as if staring at a dead object.
It slowly emerged from the bushes, leaving shallow pits in the wet mud.
On weekdays, she sees mostly cats and dogs, how have she ever met such a fierce beast. She subconsciously wanted to exclaim, but her voice was stuck in her throat, and she just opened her lips.
"Ling Ling is scared?" She heard him say that.
He raised his lips and spoke in a calm tone, but the knuckles of the hand holding the bow were white—too close, the bow and arrow were not appropriate, and it would be better to have a sword in his hand now.
At the moment, it is not easy to run, otherwise it may be provoked to pounce. He slowly retreated with Ruan Yuyi, always keeping a distance from it.
Xu felt that the victory was in his hands, and the brown bear was not in the slightest hurry, and followed them.
"How could there be such a beast in the hunting grounds?" She glanced sideways and leaned back, her backhand touching the reins tied to the tree. The onion-white fingertips trembled thinly, and it took a while to untie them.
It is said that in order to ensure the safety of the ministers of the Son of Heaven, the hunting ground will screen in advance, and this kind of fierce beast will not be put in. Unless—they've been out of the hunting ground before they know it.
Jiang Huaiyang's eyes were gloomy. But past the fence, he couldn't have gone unnoticed.
"It's not enough to kill people," he chuckled, and stepped back against his horse, "but I am willing to die with you here?" ”
She saw a hint of positive color in his eyes, and a chill ran down her spine, and she didn't know which side should be more afraid of than the brown bear for a while.
