The Reborn Duke of Ming Dynasty

"Teacher," Zhu Yijun said to Zhang Fan who was following him, riding on horseback with a bow and arrow in his hand, "this is a good place, especially for hunting, but if you can come here with your relatives and friends , it is more interesting, but now it is occupied by me, hahaha,"

"..." Hearing Zhu Yijun's words, Zhang Fan felt a little speechless. He didn't know what to say. After all, he was the emperor, and going out would have seemed a lot more pompous, not to mention, Daming Zhao Zai didn't have his own paddock near the capital, so he had to drive out the original tourists and not allow them to enter, but Zhang Fan listened to Zhu Yijun's meaning, so he didn't feel guilty, but he was so proud .

However, Zhang Fan will not make any comments on this. After all, this place is only occupied temporarily, and it is not permanent. After Zhu Yijun returns this time, tourists can still come. Besides, will there be autumn next year? Hunting, no one can explain this thing clearly. If this good place is really designated as a royal enclosure, it is impossible for tourists to come in.

"Today is the first day." Zhu Yijun didn't care about Zhang Fan's appearance at all, and said to himself, "Today I must win the battle, and I must not return empty-handed."

"It's natural," Zhang Fan said with a smile, "There are mountains and waters, grass and forests here, and there must be a lot of beasts. I'm just waiting for your Majesty to harvest them," Zhang Fan said. It is true that Zhu Yijun is not ignorant of this kind of thing. When Nurhachi was in the capital, Zhu Yijun was always in the martial arts field during that time. Although it is not yet proficient, it is still no problem to hit the position.

Of course, at that time, Zhu Yijun was shooting at the target, and the distance was not too far away. Now, what he was shooting was a living thing, and the ones that could move were naturally different, but Zhu Yijun was so confident. Zhang Fan couldn't say anything disappointing to hit him, but Zhang Fan couldn't help but look at the little school behind him who was in charge of collecting the prey. His hands were empty, and the man also saw that Zhang Fan was watching. He couldn't help showing a helpless smile.

Now this has been out for two hours, but there is nothing.

Zhu Yijun didn't see Zhang Fan's movements, and kept looking around intently, looking for prey, and said happily: "Okay, I have to work harder, thanks to the teacher's auspicious words."

"boom,"

Just at the moment when Zhu Yijun finished speaking, a loud gunshot sounded, causing the few birds in this season to fly up.

However, with such a loud noise, none of the people present reacted with any fright. Obviously, they had already prepared for it. The people who followed Zhu Yijun and Zhang Fan showed helplessness on their faces, and Zhu Yijun was very helpless. , and Zhang Fan wished he could find a hole in the ground and get in.

"It seems..." Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Fan with a very difficult look and said, "This Miss Joanna is really excited."

"Hehe, what did His Majesty say?" Zhang Fan didn't know how to answer Zhu Yijun's words, so he could only smile back.

That's right, the gunshot came from the musket in Joanna's hand. As mentioned before, because of Qiushou, Yingyue and Zhaoxue bothered Zhang Fan a lot at home, and Zhang Fan was also arrested. It took a lot of trouble, and gradually, he became a little angry with the way the two of them played but never knew how to stop. In a fit of anger, he made a decision. He didn't bring the two of them, and brought Joanna with him. up.

Of course, now it seems that this decision is not only made by Zhang Fan in a fit of anger, but also with his considerations. After all, no matter how you say it, the identities of Zhaoxue and Yingyue are placed there and cannot be moved. They were Zhang Fan's concubines, and it was obvious that a minister, who was traveling with the emperor, was accompanied by a concubine, not to mention the rules of etiquette.

But Joanna is different. Although Joanna didn’t go anywhere else after leaving her homeland, she came here. It’s obviously because of Zhang Fan, even for people outside. Even those who don't know what happened between Joanna and Zhang Fan can guess that Joanna will definitely enter the Zhang family's door in the end.

But, in the same way, this incident has not happened after all. That is to say, although Joanna lives in the Zhang family now, she is not Zhang Fan's woman, and her identity when she came to Daming before There, she is a special envoy. Although it is said that she has lost everything in her own country, it has nothing to do with Daming. What is her identity now? A guest came to hunt with the owner, obviously there is no problem.

Before, Zhang Fan told Zhaoxue and Yingyue that he had already told Zhu Yijun about bringing Joanna, but in fact it was not the case. Zhu Yijun took the initiative to mention this matter to Zhang Fan, but at that time, Zhu Yijun What I hope is that Zhang Fan can bring Ruan Er to come together. After all, the court is very busy during this time, and Zhu Yijun doesn't even have much free time, let alone going out of the palace to meet her at Zhang Fan's mansion. up.

But for the same reason, Zhang Fan does not agree with this matter. After all, although Ruan Er has nothing to do with him, he brought the person after all, so any troubles will be his, not Zhu Yijun. I don't understand Zhang Fan, but he really wants to see Ruan Er, so now it's like this, Joanna is traveling, but what I didn't say before, it's not just Joanna who came, Ruan Er also came with her, her identity is Just as Joanna's maid.

Zhu Yijun was naturally very happy about this.

As for the gunshot just now and Zhang Fan's embarrassing appearance, that's another matter. After all, if you come to hunt, you naturally have to bring a bow and arrow. Things seem to have always been like this.

But for Joanna, on the one hand, it is obviously unrealistic and not very elegant for a woman to bend her bow and shoot arrows; on the other hand, Joanna does not know how to use a bow and arrow at all. For a while, she faced almost all enemies with bows and arrows, but she didn't know how to use the opponent's weapon.

In fact, this can be said to be Zhu Yijun's trouble. After coming here, that is, yesterday, Zhu Yijun asked Joanna some things, just like chatting, but he didn't expect that this chat, chat Here comes the problem.

Originally, Joanna regarded this trip as a tour, and didn't want to go hunting or anything, and she also understood some habits of the Ming Dynasty. She knew things like bows and arrows, but she didn't use.

What's more, there are some things that are similar between China and the West. Even in her country, the emperor would go out to hunt, but there, it was not said that he had to bring his female relatives with him when he went hunting, unless the minister accompanying the emperor was a woman. But that is very rare, not to mention the Ming Dynasty, where the entire imperial court was from top to bottom, and there was no official country with a woman.

Moreover, when Zhang Fan told her to let her come together, he also told her the reason. She knew that this time she came by herself, in fact, it was to cover for the young emperor, and the protagonist was actually another woman, but Joanna was not unhappy about this. After all, since she encountered that incident, she was no longer an aristocrat, and she had already put aside her useless dignity and pride.

Originally, I didn't plan to come here to do anything, but Joanna, who just traveled around the mountains and rivers, was at the banquet with Zhu Yijun last night. Zhu Yijun also had nothing to do, and asked her about hunting. , and Joanna doesn't want to be troublesome, just to be honest, she doesn't know how to use bows and arrows, she just needs to watch from the sidelines.

And Zhu Yijun also showed a look of unwillingness to give up, and asked her what weapon she used to use. After hearing this question, Joanna looked at Zhang Fan who was sitting next to her, and saw that he did not respond. In fact, Zhang Fan He also didn't expect that things would change. He had the same thought as Zhu Yijun at the time, thinking that this was just gossip, what could happen.

Seeing that Zhang Fan didn't give her a signal and Joanna, who didn't understand the formalities of the Central Plains officialdom, began to tell the truth again. She said that she only knew how to use a musket.

Immediately, Zhu Yijun asked someone to bring one, and asked Joanna to try it on the spot, but Joanna of course refused to allow it. Except for the first three test shots, it can be said that it was a hundred shots after that, which made Zhu Yijun applaud. , and let him perform a show of imperial domineering, and gave those Musketeers a lesson, saying that they are a bunch of big men, but they can't win a woman.

In fact, Zhu Yijun is a bit unreasonable, and it's not whether Joanna can win against them, even if it is true, but Zhu Yijun made such a conclusion before seeing them shoot, and gave them a lesson. It makes these people feel a little uncomfortable.

Fortunately, the truth is true. Joanna is indeed better than them in shooting, which is why no one has come forward to challenge.

Although Joanna's time in India was the darkest time in her life, she didn't want to pick up a gun at all, but now, with a comfortable life in front of her, she also wants to move again, so She also went out to hunt with a musket today, and she was quite active.

It is precisely because of this that Zhu Yijun felt helpless in the following incidents, while Zhang Fan felt a little ashamed.
