Chapter 359: Hunting in the Upper Forest
Qin Yun, Yan Lingyun and Fang Feicheng watched the palace lady leave. /
There were only three of them left in front of the huge tent, and the other princes and princesses gathered their retinue guards one after another, and rode their horses and whips towards the majestic mountains in the distance, and the manor camp was a scene of chaos.
Yan Lingyun took a long breath and said, "Senior brother, this time it's really thanks to your help, thank you!"
Qin Yun smiled and said, "Senior brother, don't be polite, I just happened to meet him, and I didn't help much, and ten thousand spirit jade won't stump Senior Brother?"
Yan Lingyun smiled bitterly and said: "Senior brother, you don't know, I really pressed all the family resources, don't say that there are more than 10,000 spirit jade, even if it is 1,000 spirit jade, I may not be able to get it, my third brother and ninth sister want to say that their wealth is much stronger than me!"
Qin Yun asked curiously, "What is the origin of this Ninth Princess?"
Yan Lingyun and Fang Feicheng looked at each other, and the latter said, "Senior brother, I'll explain it to you." ”
Yan Lingyun nodded and said, "Well, you guys are talking here, I'll go gather the guards and prepare to go!"
Obviously, Yan Lingyun was reluctant to get involved in this topic, but he couldn't hide it from Qin Yun, so letting Fang Feicheng and Qin Yun communicate privately was undoubtedly the best choice.
The ninth princess Yan Fangfei is also a well-known figure in the Yan royal family, she was appointed by Emperor Longwu at the age of thirteen to marry Li Fuquan, the eldest son of Li Longde, the general of the Zhu Kingdom, and married at the age of eighteen.
However, this Li Fuquan is not "Fuquan" at all, he is frivolous and frivolous, eating, drinking, piáo and gambling everything, and Emperor Longwu married Yan Fangfei completely in order to envelop Li Longde, who was guarding the northern frontier.
But the two have only been married for half a year, and Li Fuquan used too much medicine when he was lingering in the Qinglou, and he actually died on the belly of a red jì, which was a sensation in Yanjing at that time.
Yan Fangfei became a widow before she was twenty years old, both Emperor Longwu and Li Longde felt guilty about her, especially Li Longde, who was highly respected in the Great Yan Army, originally loved Yan Fangfei very much, and handed over all the Li family's property to Yan Fangfei to take charge of.
No one thought that Yan Fangfei was extremely talented in business, and she took care of the Li family's industry, so she became a well-known widow and a wealthy woman, plus the care of Emperor Longwu and Li Longde, it can be said that no one dares to mess with it in Yanjing.
"Since the death of her husband, the Ninth Princess has become a little unruly, and she usually likes to recruit young Junyan into the mansion, and there are some bad rumors" Fang Feicheng said cryptically: "You can not sell face to anyone, so even His Royal Highness has a headache for the Ninth Princess." ”
So that's the case! Qin Yun finally understood.
Speaking of which, this princess is also a poor person with an ill-fated fate, and her debauchery is probably the result of self-abandonment, so it is no wonder that Yan Lingyun is reluctant to talk about this sister in person.
"It's nothing on the Ninth Princess's side, it's impossible for her to compete for the crown prince, and she is neutral to all the royal highnesses, don't look at her standing on the side of the third prince just now" Fang Feicheng said: "As long as you send out that ice mantis bead, she can also stand on His Highness's side!"
"However, Yan Chaozong will never give up, he will definitely send Iga Feng to challenge you after the hunt is over, and he will also use 50,000 spirit jade to defeat His Highness!"
His expression became extremely solemn: "His Highness is determined to go out of Jingnan County, if there is no money as capital, his plan may be difficult to implement, Yan Chaozong must have set up a situation against xìng." ”
Jingnan County is located in the south of Xinjiang, the people's livelihood is withered and in ruins, and the only important town Lingyang has suffered a catastrophe that has not been seen for decades.
But in the face of Yan Chaozong's pressing step by step, he couldn't flinch and retreat.
By now, Qin Yun had a clear understanding of the predicament Yan Lingyun was facing, although he had no intention of stepping into the internal strife of the children of the royal family, but now he had no choice to meet the challenge of his opponent.
The most important thing is that there are pros and cons, as long as he can get through this hurdle, it will also be of great help to his own goals.
Qin Yun smiled faintly and said, "Then if there are more than 50,000 spirit jade, wouldn't it be better?"
On the other hand, Qin Yun is also very supportive of Yan Lingyun being able to go out of Jingnan, and with his character and ability, he will definitely be able to govern Jingnan out of Jingnan and restore prosperity.
After the battle of Lingyang, Qin Yun also had a deep affection for the southern Xinjiang fortress, and Shui Wanning and Luliu's relatives were also there.
His tone was flat, but it revealed an incomparably firm confidence.
Fang Feicheng said with a smile: "If you have the confidence to win, of course it's best, why don't you stay here and prepare for the next three days, and you don't have to go with us?"
Qin Yun shook his head: "No need, that's too much to look up to them!"
A simple sentence, but it was full of pride, Fang Feicheng laughed, reached out and patted Qin Yun's shoulder vigorously and said, "Okay! The children of the Sword Sect are just like this, let's go hunting together!"
Banners and horses galloped, a group of warriors with bows and swords left the manor, and entered the Mangmang Forest Mountain in batches from different directions, and the annual Dayan Royal Shanglin Garden hunt officially kicked off.
Shanglin Yuan hunting has a certain quality of competition, and there are a total of 47 teams participating this year, which can be said to include the younger generation of the royal family, so the atmosphere of competition is quite strong.
According to the rules of hunting, a member of the royal family can only have two innate level close guards and no more than ten Qi Refining Realm knights or hunters, and a team of people and horses has a total of no more than thirteen people.
Yan Lingyun was accompanied by Qin Yun and Fang Feicheng, and he also brought nine retinues, all of whom were retainers and warriors in his own mansion, who had participated in hunting activities before and had more experience.
The group formed a team of horses and headed northwest, and after entering the woods, they changed to walking, looking for prey in the vast forests and mountains.
This area is the southern foot of Manglong Mountain, with a vast territory and complex terrain, belonging to the direct territory of the Dayan royal family, and is not open to outsiders, so there are no inhabited beasts in the depths of the forest.
Of course, for innate powerhouses like Yan Lingyun and Qin Yun, hunting in the forest is completely an entertainment and leisure activity, even if a mid-level demon beast appears, it will not pose much of a threat to them.
The retinue scattered in all directions, driving the prey out from the depths of the bushes, mostly small and medium-sized beasts such as antelopes, lynxes, hares, etc., and there were no tigers, bears, leopards and other predators.
However, looking at the mountain beasts fleeing in panic in the woods, Yan Lingyun immediately put aside all his troubles, picked up the longbow in his hand and said to Qin Yun: "Senior brother, let's compete together to see who has the most prey!"
Sou!
As soon as his words fell, the bowstring in his hand suddenly loosened, and a sharp arrow shuffled out like lightning, instantly sweeping a distance of dozens of paces, and accurately hit an antelope that was galloping.
The hapless antelope didn't even have time to let out a scream, and slammed forward to the ground, its head completely pierced by the arrow, and it was almost killed instantly.
The following few retinue warriors applauded, Yan Lingyun raised the longbow in his hand quite proudly, and said with a smile: "I haven't played with the bow for a long time, and it seems that my hand is not rusty yet." ”
The weapons used by the vast Kyushu warriors are respected by the sword, and the number of stars in the sword cultivation is incalculable, and the bow and arrow are usually only used as auxiliary weapons, except for the archers and hunters in the army, very few people will deliberately work archery.
But an innate powerhouse like Yan Lingyun, even if it is the first time to contact the bow and arrow, as long as he is familiar with the method used, the power he can exert is beyond the reach of ordinary archers, and killing an antelope is definitely easy to capture.
Qin Yun and Fang Feicheng both smiled, and everyone's mood relaxed a lot.
The team continued to move towards the depths of the mountains.
There are not many prey found on the road, and according to the rules of hunting, at least fierce beasts such as tigers, leopards, bears and demon beasts must be hunted to calculate the results, so so far, the team led by Yan Lingyun has a zero record.
He wasn't in a hurry, he talked and laughed with Qin Yun and Fang Feicheng all the way, until a roadblock appeared.
The tiger appeared so suddenly that even the nearby retinue warriors could not detect it in time, and it suddenly burst out of the bushes by the forest stream, carrying a howling wind at an extremely fast speed.
"Good guy!" Yan Lingyun's eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately raised his longbow.
However, the tiger seemed to know his strength, and hurriedly turned around and jumped to his feet, jumping down on a nearby mountain stream rock, with great agility and agility.
Monsters!
Everyone present could see that this colorful tiger was by no means an ordinary tiger, and only a demon beast could have such swiftness and reflexes.
Qin Yun immediately pulled out the bow and aimed it at the target with a Xuantie arrow in an instant.
Sou!
At this time, an unexpected situation appeared, and a fiery red arrow suddenly burst out from the bushes not far away, and shè straight towards the neck of the colorful tiger.
At the same moment, Qin Yun also let go of his fingers, and the Xuantie arrow shuffled out silently.
Syllable!
The first to come collided with the red arrow, and the latter was shattered, but the arrow lost its original accuracy and flew over the tiger's head.
The colorful tiger was startled and quickly jumped to escape.
It had just taken off into the air, and two sharp arrows hit its neck and abdomen!
Roar!
The demon beast suddenly let out a roar of pain, and fell straight into the stream from the air, splashing countless droplets, and the red blood quickly stained the clear stream, which was shocking to watch.
It was Yan Lingyun and Fang Feicheng who made the shot, the two of them infused the innate true qi into the arrows, and a low-level demon beast naturally couldn't resist it, and after being pierced by shè, they struggled in the water a few times before swallowing their breath.
