Chapter 223: How cunning the fox is

"Be careful, Dongfang Yao." Li Zhen leaned closer and reminded.

Ye Shuhua also glanced at the group of people, "You have to be careful." ”

"My cousin and my sister-in-law are so glue-like, I really envy us!" Li Zhan laughed and said loudly.

But on the woman's side, no one dared to laugh.

Everyone knows that Dongfang Yao has entered Yunwei Mansion but was driven out.

Although Dongfang Yao lived in it in the name of the second prince's detoxification, everyone knew that this was just a statement on the surface, in fact, she was the side concubine of Yunwei Palace in the future.

But the second prince ignored the pressure of the emperor and queen, and found a reason to drive her out.

This is a thorn in the shame of the Dongfang family everywhere, and it is also Dongfang Yao's.

At least, that's what they think.

Everyone lowered their eyes and was silent, raising their eyes to peek at Dongfang Yao.

But the person concerned didn't care, and looked at the two people in front of him with a smile on his face, whispering to each other, and being extremely intimate.

This also made Xi Ziying unable to understand her.

That time her birthday banquet was too, she thought she wanted to make the second princess ugly, but she didn't.

On the contrary, she was written down by the second imperial concubine and gave her the night pearl that the nobles and ladies of the Li Kingdom often rewarded to her subordinates.

It hurt her to be aggrieved, and she couldn't speak.

Because of that lesson, this time she had a long memory, and leaned forward and asked in a whisper.

"Sister Yao, are you just shooting and hunting this time, or do you have other plans for her?"

The interests of the Xizi family and the Dongfang family are deeply entangled, and Xiziying has also followed Dongfang Yao since she was a child.

Come to think of it, she listens to what she says.

Sometimes even if you find out that you have been cheated by Dongfang Yao, you don't dare to say anything.

Dongfang Yao's eyes flowed, and she smiled beautifully.

"What else do you need to say?" She tilted her head and gave her a look.

Xi Ziying understood at the moment.

The men were divided into two groups, and they all went to the deep forest to the west.

Coincidentally, dark clouds covered the top, and the sky began to drizzle.

The spring rain is the longest, although it is not big, but it rains endlessly.

The humidity in the mountains and forests increased, and after a while, a layer of water mist appeared.

Ye Shuhua and Dongfang Yao Xiziying were at the forefront, the weather was gloomy, and the sight in the mountains and forests was not good.

Coupled with the water mist, it is even more difficult to see the surrounding situation.

Suddenly, a flash of red flashed in front of his eyes.

Everyone saw it clearly.

"Firefox, it's Firefox!"

"Sister Ying, you take everyone over there to besiege it! Princess, how about you walk around this side with me? ”

Ye Shuhua glanced at the direction she was pointing, there were thorns, and nodded quietly.

The two walked for a while, but there was no shadow of a fire fox, but the surrounding trees became denser and denser.

There were more and more weeds, and the sound of horses' hooves faded away.

"The Oriental girl is doing this on purpose, what do you want to do?"

"Want to kill me? Do you dare? ”

Dongfang Yao smiled, "What did I do when I killed the princess, with the lesson of Lixi, I don't dare to do anything to you." ”

"And, what can we do here? Looking for Firefox, of course. She still said with a smile, making it impossible to see the emotion in her eyes.

The two of them walked slowly on their horses, and the rain became more and more rapid.

Instead, the mist was dispersed, and in a trance, I really saw the fire fox jump out.

Ye Shuhua reacted the fastest, and chased after him at the moment.

Dongfang Yao also followed, and the two chased the fire fox through the mountains and forests, and finally reached the range, and the two opened their bows and shot arrows together.

Whoosh!

The arrows burst out of the air, piercing through the rain and swirling straight towards the fire fox, who was a little tired from escaping and hid in the grass for a while.

Firefox is also extremely agile, and when the arrow is about to stab it, it bounces out of the way.

Without thinking about it, he jumped to the spot where the other arrow feathered out.

The arrow stabbed it directly into its hind legs, causing it to chirp in pain.

I wanted to escape, but because it hurt too much, I couldn't use the strength of my hind legs, so I could only crawl forward desperately.

But his strength was limited, and he was soon blocked by Ye Shuhua and others.

The fox seemed to be desperate, his mournful eyes were full of tears, and his eyebrows, eyes and ears drooped.

The fox's pupils were also fiery red, and now they were glowing with tears, and his mouth was whimpering.

It's not pitiful to look at.

Ye Shuhua and Dongfang Yao dismounted and approached, looking at its appearance, they couldn't help but feel pity.

"No wonder people hate foxes, and look at its flattering and pitiful appearance, but it is only to win sympathy and let us spare its life."

The color of pity in Dongfang Yao's eyes flashed, and the eyes were clear, and he returned to a sober look that he couldn't see through.

Ye Shuhua really had pity.

The fire fox still looked pitiful, with his head raised and his eyes half-squinted, there were tears at the end of his eyes, and his mouth was more clear.

But its two front paws didn't stop for a moment, still crawling to the other side.

Its intentions were so obvious that the two of them naturally couldn't see it.

Ye Shuhua couldn't bear to say: "Or just let it go." ”

"The princess, you are kind-hearted, it's just that I just said that this fox is used to pretending to be pitiful and deceiving people, you can't be deceived by it."

"Now, since this firefox has been caught, naturally we can't let it escape."

As soon as she finished speaking, she tried to grab it.

The fire fox jumped almost at the moment when she jumped, and she didn't know where she got the strength, and jumped towards her side and back.

The weeds under its feet suddenly fell before it jumped, and it jumped just to the edge, and it was able to stabilize itself and not fall.

On the contrary, Dongfang Yao stepped on the air, lost his center of gravity, and was about to fall before he could scream.

Ye Shuhua also reacted quickly, she almost reacted subconsciously, reaching out to grab her hand.

As soon as he caught it, his feet slipped, his body was not stable, and he was planted with it.

Plop plop.

The ground is soft soil, but it doesn't hurt very much, but the head hits the ground, and it's still a little foggy.

Ye Shuhua was lying on his back on the ground, with rain lapping on his face, his brain gradually cleared up, and he raised his hand to rub the back of his head.

Half-squinted, I just saw a fox coming by the trap.

It has long lost the pitiful appearance it had just now, but is a little cunning.

He only glanced at them, and then dragged his hind limbs away.

Ye Shuhua only heard the rustling of grass, and the sound disappeared after a while.

She slowly got up.

Dongfang Yao on the side, holding her back, looked full of pain, and after getting up, she pressed a stone under her.

"I'll just say, this fox is cunning, you don't believe it, it's okay now, right? We were led into a trap by a fox. ”

Ye Shuhua picked up the stone and threw it aside, clapped her hands again, and said to her.

"That's not because you're lunging at it, you won't fall into a trap if you don't."

"By the way, you didn't mean to, did you? You wanted me to fall into a trap, but you didn't expect to fall into it first? ”

Ye Shuhua has not given up and suspected that she is plotting against her.

Dongfang Yao was speechless, rubbing the position of his lower back, and inhaled cold air in pain.

"Even if it was, do you think I'd be so stupid that I didn't come up with a foolproof solution, and I didn't see that it was a trap?"

She looked up at the entrance of the cave and frowned, "Second Imperial Princess, let's think about how we get out, the walls of this trap are polished and smooth, and it is impossible to climb out." ”

"This is simple, I will work lightly, this trap is not dug deep, I can jump out with one jump."

Dongfang Yao covered his waist, which was no longer as painful as just now, and said, "What about me?" ”

"You?" Ye Shuhua looked her up and down and guessed that she didn't know martial arts, let alone light martial arts.

"You wait, I'll call for help." ”

"Hey, hey, no! You can't just leave me alone! ”

She raised her head and shouted, but the voice still didn't catch up with Ye Shuhua, and she disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Ye Shuhua jumped out of the trap and glanced back with complicated eyes.

In this way, she really didn't mean to harm herself, or do anything to herself.

It's just, what is her purpose?

She must have a purpose, Ye Shuhua thinks so, and she is very convinced.

There are no tools around to take advantage of, and her light skills are not enough to bring Dongfang Yao out, so she can only go to Xi Ziying.

Fortunately, Xiaohong didn't run, and it was still waiting in place.

Seeing Ye Shuhua appear, he whispered happily.
