Wang Jiuyuan hesitated for a moment, although the autumn season of these years was dull, there would always be some small accidents, he didn't want Xiao Wenjun to take risks, and was about to speak, but she blocked the conversation.

"Jiuyuan, you don't have to persuade me. I have to go this time, I received a letter from my eldest brother the day before yesterday, and he was ambushed on the way back to Lanling, more than one. ”

Xiao Wenqing listened to his sister's instructions, took a detour to Jinzhou back to Lanling, and was cautious along the way.

Fortunately, they were vigilant and did not let the thieves succeed, but they still injured many people, and Xiao Wenqing was also slightly injured in order to save his subordinates. So, they went and stopped, and it took almost a month.

"Brother Xiao, how is he now? Are you hurt? Wang Jiuyuan was horrified in his heart and hurriedly asked. The Xiao family has withdrawn from the political center of Daqi, why does anyone still not let him go?

"The eldest brother arrived in Lanling safely, and he was slightly injured, so he was out of the way." Xiao Wenjun's expression was as usual.

Seeing this, Wang Jiuyuan also felt a little relieved, "Do you know who did it?" ”

During this time, Wang Jiuyuan's subordinates were mainly investigating Yu Wenyao's past, I don't know what intersection he had with Wen Jun in the past or what intersection he had with the Xiao family, Wen Jun was very hostile to him? If she can find out something, she can help her.

It's not that I didn't think about asking her directly, but my intuition told me that she wouldn't answer, but would make her sad in vain.

"Someone has been sent to investigate, and there will be eyebrows soon. Therefore, this autumn, I have to go, and it is also about whether I can break the marriage contract with Yu Wenyao. ”

Speaking of which, Wang Jiuyuan knew that there was no need to persuade again, and yes, she had never regretted what she decided. I only need to protect her thoroughly, and tomorrow I will ask Sun Zheng to accompany her to Qiuqiu.

……

Located on the outskirts of Kyoto, the royal enclosure is cloudless, the grass is dry, and the wind blows the grass, and the wild animals who have been recuperating for a year are also fat and strong, which is a good time for hunting.

It was originally used to show the heroism of the ruling class, to exercise the monarch's command ability, and to connect the feelings between the monarch and the ministers.

First of all, the person who can be brought with him has already shown grace and recognition of him, and secondly, in the process of hunting, through cooperation, it can further draw closer relationships and enhance feelings.

It is also possible to practice the tacit understanding and cooperation proficiency between monarchs and ministers and colleagues through hunting.

As a result, this event has rarely been cancelled over the years.

This autumn festival was as usual, the emperor and empress brought the concubines who had the princess and princess, the princesses and princesses who accompanied them, the relatives of the clan, and some princes and ministers above the third rank, almost more than half of the magnates in Kyoto were dispatched, and the momentum was huge.

Three days after arriving at the royal paddock, we set up camp and everything was proceeding in an orderly manner.

This time the person in charge of security is the Gong Wei Division and the Palace Forbidden Army, the Gong Wei Division is headed by Sun Zheng, and the forbidden army is in command of Zeng Biao. It is carried out in two batches, one group of people is responsible for clearing the site and patrolling, and the other group is responsible for guarding and guarding the surrounding area.

Although they had inspected the paddock several times before the emperor came, and made sure that there were no suspicious people and animals, every year they checked carefully, and every year there were some small accidents, and they were not allowed to be sloppy!

At the fifth watch, the "siege" began, and the people in charge of clearing the field were divided into two teams, and the two wings of the team outflanked them from a distance of dozens of miles, gradually retracted, and drove all kinds of wild beasts in the encirclement to the center of the flat area.

The eldest prince and the fifth prince also participated, perhaps feeling something, and actually rode together side by side, the difference is that the expression of the fifth prince is relaxed, while the expression of the eldest prince is much more severe.

The eldest prince was reprimanded by the emperor, and it was normal for his face to be bad.

"I heard that the eldest brother recently got a sweat and blood BMW, but he can travel thousands of miles a day, and I can see it today, and it is really magnificent, presumably the hunting thing must be inevitable!" The five princes looked the eldest prince up and down, and although they said words of praise, they did not have the slightest envy.

"The fifth brother's riding and archery has been praised by his father, I don't know if another year has passed, has the fifth brother improved?" The eldest prince didn't give the five princes face at all, and he was indeed a little worse. When it comes to martial arts, among the princes, the eldest prince is the most top-notch.

"In the past, in the past, the eldest brother Qiu Qiu won the championship by luck, and most of them relied on Liu Guard. I went into battle in person today, I'm afraid it's not as good as my little brother! The five princes meant something, naturally it was Liu Zijie, who had an affair with Guo Concubine and died tragically that day.

"Humph! Zijie must have been victimized by you! When I find out the truth, I will bring that thief to justice! "The eldest prince has already tacitly acquiesced in his heart that the person who killed Liu Zijie is the fifth prince. After all, there are only a few of them who can participate in the struggle for the throne.

It is impossible for him to harm Liu Zijie, and the third prince and the fourth prince have no idea of taking the heir, and only the fifth prince is the fifth prince who really has the motivation and ability to do this.

"I haven't seen you for many days, I can't imagine that my eldest brother's mouth has become so powerful? I'm afraid, I'm afraid, without this right-hand man, I will lose a big one because of a small one, hahaha! With that, the fifth prince waved the reins and left quickly.

"Humph! In today's hunt, this king is bound to win! A burst of light burst out in the eyes of the eldest prince, and he looked coldly at the fifth prince who had already walked away, and said coldly.

When the early morning sun shone on the paddock, the emperor appeared in a bright yellow riding costume in front of everyone, and the audience immediately fell silent.

"The rules of hunting are the same as before, the one with the most prey wins, so I won't say much." The emperor glanced at the audience, and everyone was energetic and eager to try, "Are you ready?" ”

Everyone shouted three times Long live, and the eldest prince and the fifth prince responded in unison, but the third prince Yu Wenyao did not respond.

"Third child, are you really not participating?" The emperor's gaze fell on Yu Wenyao.

As soon as these words came out, even Yu Wenyao was a little shaken, presumably it was the eldest brother and the fifth brother who disappointed their father too much, so they had a glimmer of hope for themselves, right?

Yu Wenyao restrained his thoughts and said respectfully: "My father has just recovered from a serious illness, and the carriage and horses have not rested for the time being, and my sons are by my father's side to help my father!" ”

Everyone was not surprised by Yu Wenyao's voluntary withdrawal, but Xiao Wenjun was more vigilant.

Even the emperor waved his hand and said, but his words were full of blame for Yu Wenyao: "Okay! Don't regret it! For today's hunt, I have prepared a special reward, and whoever is the best will get this reward. ”

The emperor said that the reward is given to the most "excellent" people, not to "shoot" the most, so how can it be called excellent? In the end, the right of interpretation still belongs to the emperor, which also implies that the most people who hunt this time may not necessarily get, but can satisfy the emperor from the heart.

As he spoke, Grandpa An handed over a delicate wooden box.
