A hundred flavors of life

PS: A 6,000-word chapter is considered an extra update!

The Ninth Prince was amused by Cao Fang:

"Cao Fang, you didn't dare to speak when you saw me in the past. You seem to have changed a lot when you met me today. You even joked with me. This is good. But there are things to do today. Let's wait until the Japanese palace invites you to drink. chat!"

Cao Fang acted subconsciously just now, but now she reacted and became scared.

In the past, he didn't dare to speak when he saw the Ninth Prince, but his family had told him not to get too close to the prince. Now when he heard the Ninth Prince's words were solicitous, he shrank back with a smile, and he didn't even think about it. Don't dare to start a fight.

When Zhao Gou saw Cao Fang like this, he didn't take it seriously and looked at Lin Chong again:

"Back away, I want that big insect!"

Hua Twelve glanced at the useless Cao Fang: "That's a dead thing!"

Cao Fang didn't dare to argue and could only smile bitterly.

Hua Twelve turned to the Ninth Prince and chuckled: "Your Highness is joking, I left this big insect for myself. I, Lin Chong, the leader of the winter hunt this year, want it. If Your Highness still lacks prey, I still have a bear bear to give to Your Highness!"

Zhao Gou's face darkened: "Who do you think you are, worthy of being the leader of this winter hunt? Get out of my way!"

Hua Twelve rode on the tiger, slowly raised the horse's saddle, and sighed: "I originally set my heart on the bright moon."

As soon as he opened his mouth, the noble disciples following him in the Jie Dao Regiment all began to twitch their mouths, thinking in their hearts:

"Come on, come on, it's this familiar opening line again!"

They have all figured out the way of Hua Twelve. This is a smiling tiger who is polite first and then fights. He does this to everyone he sees. He seems to be respectful and will give you some face first, but if you think about it, you will know that none of these sorghum dudes can ask for a little girl. The face given by Lieutenant Xiaolong?

Then they pretended to be idiots, and this smiling tiger who seemed to be respectful started to say this line, as if they all liked smelly ditches, and then they were robbed.

You said they were happily out hunting in the winter, riding on horses and singing songs, provoking whomever? He was so robbed! Where can I go to reason with you?

Sure enough, Hua Twelve pointed at the Ninth Prince and said:

"But the bright moon shines on the ditch. Ninth Prince, please hand over all the prey, and then you can go!"

All the members of the Jie Dao Group behind him had expressions that they knew were like this, and they were not surprised at all.

Zhao Gou laughed angrily, and some of the noble disciples following him behind him began to yell and curse, and the guards around him all held weapons in their hands and showed murderous intent in their eyes.

At this moment, as long as the Ninth Prince gives an order, these guards will rush out and kill this guy who dares to offend their master on the spot.

The Ninth Prince's smile turned cold, and he slowly raised his hand to issue a kill order, but suddenly the ground beneath his feet trembled, and another team of three to four hundred riders came from the direction where Zhao Gou and others came.

The three or four hundred horsemen were galloping all the way and were approaching in a blink of an eye.

The visitor saw the big insect and the current scene from a distance, and couldn't help but smile:

"Ninth brother, I didn't expect you to arrive one step ahead of my brother!"

Zhao Gou's face was embarrassed for a moment, and then he smiled: "Third brother, you are late. I found the big insect prepared by my father first!"

The person who came was none other than Zhao Ji’s favorite son, the third prince Zhao Kai.

It is said that the third prince has shown extraordinary literary talents since he was a child, and he is also good at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Therefore, although he is not a prince, he is the one who is most loved by Zhao Ji among the many sons of the official family.

Hua Twelve knew that the third prince would take part in the imperial examination anonymously in a few years and get the top prize. However, although Song Huizong was very happy when he found out, he was afraid of being questioned by the world, so he changed the exam. Wang Ang, who ranked second in the rankings, was the top pick.

The corner of his mouth curled up. How could such an outstanding prince be content with being ordinary? Let alone anything else, he appeared here at this time. He must have been coveting the position of leader of the Winter Hunt just like the Ninth Prince Zhao Gou, and wanted to use it to gain fame in the official family. Zhao Ji showed his face.

Sure enough, after hearing what Zhao Gou said, Zhao Kai laughed loudly:

"Before the winter hunting is over, the number of leaders is unknown. It seems that this big insect is not in your hands yet, Ninth Brother. It was obtained by you at this time. Maybe after a while, this big insect will be in my hands. Are you right? "

Zhao Gou's face was as gloomy as water, and he turned to Hua Twelve and said coldly: "Lin Chong, hand this big insect to me, and I will mark your contribution!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Kai had already approached on horseback. Except for Zhao Gou, everyone present saluted and said hello to His Highness King Jia.

Hua Twelve also said hello to everyone. When Zhao Gou asked him to hand over the tiger, he regarded it as a fart and ignored it at all.

The third prince, Zhao Kai, was not yet His Royal Highness King Yun in the future, but he was named the Gaomi County King as early as the first year of Chongning, and was named the Prince of Jia in the second year of Daguan. Therefore, he could call himself the king, while Zhao Gou was still the king. He has not been crowned king, so he can only call himself this palace. The gap between the status of the two princes is clearly reflected in their titles.

Zhao Kai raised his hand to Lin Chong. He was handsome, and his every move gave people the impression of a young master. He smiled and said:

"I've heard about Coach Lin's name for a long time, but today I saw that Coach was the first among many heroes to subdue the tiger and win the winter hunt. Lin Chong, the Leopard Head, is indeed well-deserved. I want to make friends with Coach Lin, and I'm willing to give my waist to him. Jian Meiyu exchanges tigers with the instructor, I wonder what the instructor wants?"

When Zhao Gou heard that Zhao Kai was trying to pry him off in person, his face turned extremely ugly: "Third brother, you and I are brothers, do you have to fight with me?"

Zhao Kai chuckled: "What are you talking about, Ninth Brother? Since we are brothers, then you, the younger brother, shouldn't you learn from Kong Rong Rangli's virtues? What's more, this big insect is not yours. This king There’s no need for you to give in!”

His smile did not diminish and he looked at Hua Twelve: "Coach Lin, I am sincerely in love with you. Don't refuse my kindness!"

Although the third prince spoke politely and his attitude was friendly, his words still gave everyone present a hint of a condescending tone that could not be rejected.

Zhao Gou also threatened: "Lin Chong, it's up to you!"

Zhao Kai smiled lightly: "Ninth brother, don't force others to make things difficult for you!"

Hua Twelve had a half-smile on his face: "You two should wait a little longer, it sounds like someone else is coming!"

There were also experts present in the teams of Zhao Gou and Zhao Kai. They all heard some noises and stepped forward to report to them in low voices. But before they finished speaking, they felt slight vibrations under their feet, and then the vibrations became more and more obvious.

Turning around, he saw another cavalry team coming from the other side. This cavalry team had a larger number of people, probably no less than five or six hundred people. The team was not only accompanied by nobles, but also a team of brightly dressed Longjing Lieutenants.

When Zhao Kai and Zhao Gou saw this team, they both had a bad feeling in their hearts.

When the visitor approached, Hua Twelve also recognized the visitor. It was the man standing behind the official Zhao Ji during the winter hunting ceremony, the current prince Zhao Heng.

Whether it was the people on Hua Twelve's side or those who followed Zhao Gou and Zhao Kai, they all dismounted and paid homage to the emperor and his ministers. Although the rule is that today, no matter how big or small, the person in front of him is the crown prince of the country. Who really dares not to give him face? .

Of course there is, there were three of them present. Zhao Kai and Zhao Gou both sat upright on their horses and just raised their hands and said, "My brother, I have seen His Highness the Crown Prince!"

Hua Twelve did not jump off the tiger, he just raised his hands and saluted.

Prince Zhao Heng waved his hand: "Everyone, get up!"

After everyone stood up, he smiled at Zhao Kai and Zhao Gou and said, "We are all brothers, so there is no need to be polite!"

After speaking, he looked at Hua Twelve, his face darkened, and asked: "Why don't you bow to me when you see me?"

Hua Twelve said calmly: "I heard that this dynasty has long had a rule. On the day of winter hunting, monarchs and ministers have fun together regardless of their size. I dare to ask His Highness, is this true?"

Everyone, including Zhao Kai and Zhao Gou, took a breath of air and thought that Lin Chong was going crazy. It's fine if you don't give Zhao Kai and Zhao Gou face. You don't even give His Highness the Crown Prince's face. You I really don’t want to hang out in the Song Dynasty anymore!

Immediately, several nobles in the prince's team rebuked loudly, and one of them, a middle-aged man, said loudly:

"Your Highness, Lin Chong has always been arrogant, domineering and rebellious. Now he is even more disrespectful. Your Highness, please punish him for the crime of disrespect!"

Hua Twelve saw the speaker clearly and said amusedly: "Who is it? It turns out to be Shi Ding, the Marquis of Zhongjing. Are you a fool? Or an idiot?"

"Don't you know what it means for the king and his subjects to enjoy themselves together, regardless of their size?"

"You asked the prince to punish me for this crime. I think you want to frame His Highness the prince. When the officials ask about it, what do you want the prince to say? That because Lin Chong does not kneel down, he must be punished? What about Dongshou? What are the rules? You are going to put the prince on the fire and roast him!"

Although everyone present did not know what idiot and idiot meant, they knew from the literal meaning that it was not a good word. Some people found it funny and couldn't help but chuckle, but they hurriedly held it back.

Zhongjing Hou Shi Ding originally wanted to apply eye drops to Hua Twelve in front of the prince, but he didn't expect that he would be tricked. He thought that if the prince really thought that he wanted to harm him, it would be over. He was so frightened that he quickly dismounted his horse and knelt on the ground:

"I'm not, I didn't. Your Highness, please don't listen to his nonsense!"

Before the prince could speak, Hua Twelve spoke up: "If I'm talking nonsense, why are you nervous? Could it be that I'm right and you're acting like this because of a guilty conscience?"

It was such a cold day that Shi Ding, the Marquis of Zhongjing, broke into a cold sweat. Fortunately, Prince Zhao Huan raised his hand: "Marquis Zhongjing, please get up. I believe you made an unintentional mistake!"

Shi Ding, the Marquis of Zhongjing, let out a sigh of relief: "The prince will see you clearly, the prince will see you clearly!"

Zhao Huan no longer looked at him, but said calmly to Hua Twelve: "Although there is no distinction between big and small on the winter hunting day, there is also a distinction between superiority and inferiority. This big insect is not what you deserve, hand it over!"

When he said this, Zhao Kai and Zhao Gou didn't look good on their faces.

Zhao Kai even said: "Your Highness, my brother discovered this tiger first. Everything should come first and come first!"

At this time, Zhao Gou already knew that he could not capture this big insect, so he was happy to add trouble to Zhao Kai, and immediately retorted:

"Hey, third brother, that's not what you said just now. Didn't you say that the younger brother should learn from Kong Rong's allusion to letting pears go? Then now is the time to dedicate this big insect to His Highness the Crown Prince!"

"you"

Zhao Kai glared at Zhao Gou fiercely. He had just wanted to join forces with him to fight against the prince, but he didn't want this kid to be so slippery. Prince Zhao Huan looked at the two quarreling younger brothers in front of him with a half-smile, then chuckled and said:

"Kong Rong let pears not only because of his noble character, but also a bit of wisdom that you must know. At Kong Rong's age at that time, he couldn't eat bigger pears at all. This story also tells people that in everything, you must know how to advance and retreat, and don't worry about it. Things that don’t belong to you, otherwise not only will your moral character be corrupted, but it will also be easy to survive!”

After Zhao Huan finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Kai and Zhao Gou with a smile: "Do you two brothers think so?"

Zhao Kai and Zhao Gou looked extremely ugly. They naturally understood the meaning of the prince's words, but they did not dare to argue, otherwise it would appear that they were really disobedient.

All they could do was bite the bullet and say: "What the prince said is absolutely true!"

Zhao Heng smiled with satisfaction and looked at Lin Chong: "I only want to say one thing, I want this big insect!"

Hua Twelve: "he tui!"

After spitting, Hua Twelve hurriedly said: "Oh, I'm sorry, the wind blew sand into my mouth. If you want to say that it's a windy day, you should stop bragging. Otherwise, not only will sand get into your mouth, but your tongue will also slip!"

There was complete silence. Who couldn't tell that Hua Twelve's words meant that he was attacking the prince? The ground was covered with snow, where did the wind and sand come from?

Cao Fang, Cheng Wu and others looked at Hua Twelve with worried eyes, and of course a little bit of admiration, because this guy said what they wanted to say but didn't dare to say, Dong Xie doesn't distinguish between big and small, why should you open your mouth and let him say it? Give it to you, not to mention scolding the prince, it’s so enjoyable. If they don’t want to live anymore, they will definitely follow suit now!

Prince Zhao Huan's face was twitching. Except for his father Zhao Ji, who else would dare not give him face? Even if some ministers refused his solicitation, they were still respectful on the surface. How could anyone ever ridicule him like this?

He immediately gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, very good, Lin Chong, right? Since you know the rule that there is no distinction between big and small on winter hunting days, do you know that there is another rule that allows each other to compete for prey?"

There were more than 200 people behind Hua Twelve, and he rolled his eyes in his heart. How could he not know? This guy is familiar with this!

Zhao Huan did not need Hua Twelve to answer, and waved his hand: "Who is going to capture this Lin Chong, teach him a lesson, and help me capture the tiger?"

"The general will go where he wishes!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a man holding an iron spear with hook and sickle had already urged his horse to rush towards Hua Twelve.

Seeing that the opponent was actually not weak, and that the man and the horse were one, Hua Twelve slapped the golden layer under his body in a funny way: "Howl twice before I fall asleep!"

As if the big insect really understood what he said, it stretched out its limbs, raised its head and let out a deafening tiger roar!

Just now, when the tiger was not showing its power, it was controlled by Youhua Twelve. Now it is showing its power, the tiger is roaring in the forest, and the momentum of the king of beasts is instantly exuded.

All the surrounding horses started to stir. Even the mounts of the Hua Twelve Formation, which had already adapted to the power of the tiger for a long time, couldn't help but trample their hooves and retreat one after another.

Many of the horses in the two teams of Zhao Kai and Zhao Gou were so frightened that they turned around and ran away regardless of their owners' shouts.

Fortunately, the prince was surrounded by expert guards. The horses of the prince, Zhao Kai, and Zhao Gou were all restrained by experts, so there was no big trouble.

Besides, the knight who rushed towards Hua Twelve was originally a man and a horse, and a man and a gun. He used the momentum of the horse to give Lin Chong a thunderous blow.

But as soon as the tiger roared out, the horse on his crotch stood up in fright, and the horse dung balls on the back of the butt fell straight down. It was so frightened that there was no possibility of a fight with such a horse.

The man gritted his teeth, and when his standing mount fell, he put one hand on the horse's back, and flew up, rushing towards Hua Twelve on the tiger's back. He even gave up his mount to fight. .

In mid-air, a voice sounded like thunder: "Golden Spear Xu Ning, ask Coach Lin for advice!"

When the final sound fell, the hook and sickle gun had already poked in front of Hua Twelve.

Hua Twelve raised his eyebrows and immediately became interested. He was a hero from Liangshan. It was said that he was unique in the world in using hooks, sickles and spears. He would like to learn from him.

Ma Shan blocked outwards and hit the head of Xu Ning's spear. Gold and iron collided with each other, and sparks flew out. Hua Twelve did not move at all, and Xu Ning had been carried backwards by the hook and sickle spear.

Hua Twelve couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He wasn't innate, and he wasn't as naturally powerful as Luda. Xu Ning's power wasn't good enough either.

He immediately said loudly: "There are still some heroes around the prince, why don't we join him together? Xu Ning is no match for Lin!"

Before the prince spoke, Xu Ning couldn't keep it off his face. You must know that in order to protect His Royal Highness during the winter hunt, he had given money to the prince next to His Highness.

He just wanted to show his face in front of the Crown Prince so that he could have a better future. This was why Xu Ning rushed out first, but Lin Chong obviously didn't take him seriously. This would leave a good impression on His Highness. ?

If His Highness thinks that Xu Ning is not useful, wouldn't he spend money to pay for his sins, lose his wife and lose his troops?

So as soon as his feet landed on the ground, he stepped out suddenly and rushed forward. Every time he took a step, the snow exploded under his feet.

The horse in Hua Twelve's hand turned into a gun, and he used a Tai Chi lazy tie. Xu Ning grabbed the momentum in a circle, leading one area at a time, and then collapsed outwards.

With a bang, the hook and sickle gun in Xu Ning's hand almost fell out of his hand, and he fell backwards. If it weren't for his excellent waist and horse skills, and his feet quickly stepped backwards, he would have been almost overturned by Hua Twelve's attack.

Everyone could see at this moment that Xu Ning was no match for Lin Chong and could not take any of his moves.

In the prince's team, one person galloped out with his legs under the horse's belly:

"Teacher Xu, let me help you!"

This man looked like a shabby man, with a face like the bottom of a pot, nostrils pointing upward, curly hair and a red beard. He was eight feet tall, holding a big knife, and shouted at Hua Twelve:

"A certain family has praised it, and I want to ask Coach Lin for advice!"

Hua Twelve suddenly realized, no wonder he was so ugly. It turned out to be Chou Junma, and this man was also a Liangshan hero. He immediately responded:

"It turns out that he was the commander-in-chief who defeated the Liao generals back then. He needs to learn from him!"

This proclamation is also tragic. When the Liao envoys arrived in Bianliang, there were warriors from the Liao dynasty who showed off their power in Tokyo with their continuous arrow skills. They were unrivaled. In the end, they proclamed the proclamation to face the battle and won the battle. Some princes liked him. The martial artist recruited him as his son-in-law, but the princess thought he was ugly and died out of hatred. From then on, he became a person whom he was not welcome to see.

This time Xuanzan followed the crown prince Dongxie, and had the same idea as Xu Ning, wanting to win the favor of the prince, so he went out for the second time, planning to join forces with Xu Ning to fight against Lin Chong.

Hua Twelve repeated his old plan. He held the horse tree in his right hand and patted the big flower on his crotch with his left hand. The Siberian tiger roared in the forest again. But what was surprising was that Xuanzan's mount was not affected and continued to rush forward. Come.

This can only mean one thing. The horses Xuanzan rides are war horses that have actually been on the battlefield. Even if they face thousands of troops, they will not flinch.

Xu Ninghu roared and rushed forward again, cooperating with Xuan Zan to attack from both sides.

Hua Twelve's horse twitched and danced out a spear flower. The shadow of the tree was like a pear blossom in a rainstorm, covering the entire area one foot in front of him.

After a jingling sound of gold and iron, Xuanzan was directly swept off his horse by Hua Shiyi. Xu Ning rolled on the ground one after another, dodging three shadows. The official uniform he was wearing and the leather robe inside were directly opened.

When Xu Ning stabilized his body and found a gap in the leather robe on his chest, he broke into a cold sweat and was almost penetrated. In fact, he didn't know that if someone wanted to kill him, just one blow would be enough. This was I'm joking with him.

Hua Twelve sat on top of Jin Jianping, one person and one tiger extremely calm, as if there was no pressure at all. He asked lazily:

"A few more are coming up, they won't be enough!"

The prince's face was so dark that he could drip with tears. He gritted his teeth and shouted: "If a few more come up, I will reward those who can defeat Lin Chong!"

The next moment, two fast horses galloped out, one wielding two water-milled eight-edge steel whips, the other wielding a jujube tree, both of them were majestic and imposing.

Hua Twelve saw that these two people were also good, so he smiled and shouted: "The generals can share their names!"

The man with two steel whips shouted: "A certain family in Runing County controls Hu Yanzhuo!"

Another shouted: "This is Han Tao who is doing martial arts!"

Hu Yanzhuo returned to the capital during the Chinese New Year this time to accompany his friend Han Tao, a martial arts scholar, who was running for office. They just happened to catch up with the official's winter hunt, so the two of them came to get to know each other better. They were dragged into the prince's team by several friends. Thinking of encountering such a thing.

After Hu Yanzhuo and Han Tao discussed it, if this situation didn't go well, it would definitely give the prince the impression that he was afraid of war and was a useless official. They gritted their teeth and rushed forward.

Hua Twelve wondered if Liangshanbo had started something in advance. Why were all Liangshan heroes here? He immediately pointed his finger at Xu Ninghe and praised:

"You four come together!"

Two hours later, Hua Twelve's Jie Dao Regiment, together with the teams of Prince Zhao Huan, Third Prince Zhao Kai, and Ninth Prince Zhao Gou, returned to the hunting camp one after another.

Zhao Ji received a report that Lin Chong surrendered the tiger and robbed the crown prince, the third prince and the ninth prince's prey. The person who reported the report described the whole process clearly, including how Lin Chong was invincible, how he robbed the prince, and everything on both sides. Not a single word was left behind.

Gao Qiu broke out in a cold sweat again, thinking only that he would feel uncomfortable if he didn't seek death for a day!

But what is surprising is the reaction of the official Zhao Ji. He was startled at first, and then showed a smile: "The fifth-grade Longjing Lieutenant is a bit underserved!"

Gao Qiu was very surprised. He knew the temperament of the official family best. Looking at the official's appearance at this time, his three sons were robbed by Lin Chong. Instead of being angry, he actually showed appreciation. It was really strange!

Thanks to: 08a, Brother Xiao Xiaohu in the Demon World for the reward, and thanks to the brothers who voted for monthly votes and recommendation votes, thank you very much.
