Chapter 45 Autumn Hunting (1)

Today's autumn hunt, young masters and ladies from all the great families came, and the new emperor on the high seat was wearing this dark yellow outfit with tight wristbands, obviously he was about to end.

Lu Chengfeng followed Xie Jiuxiao calmly, and looked towards the deep forest further away. The sunshine at noon in autumn was suitable, and the aristocratic families were intertwined with each other. It was a lively scene, but above Jiuzhong, it was cloudy and bright, and the wind and rain were about to come .

The new emperor Qin Zhiheng was only 28 or [-] years old, and he carried the dignity of an emperor without anger in his elegance. He walked off the high platform and landed on the steps, and everyone in the field looked at him in unison.

Qin Zhiheng had a smile on his face: "Today, the royal family hunts, and hundreds of families compete to be the first. If the winner is not yet married, I will marry Princess Anyang."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was in an uproar, some were surprised and some were excited.

That's Princess Anyang!Who doesn't want to be a son-in-law?

Lu Chengfeng took advantage of the excitement between the crowd and whispered, "Jiuxiao."

It was the first time she called someone like this, Xie Jiuxiao was stunned for a moment, and then replied in a low voice: "Why?"

Lu Chengfeng said: "Why don't you see people from Su Wang's Mansion?"

Xie Jiuxiao explained: "Su Wang has been ill for several days and did not participate in this hunt."

Lu Chengfeng asked: "Are you really sick?"

Xie Jiuxiao saw her asking the bottom line, and said: "Why do you suddenly care about this matter? I am really sick. I went to the hospital. It seems that I am seriously ill. I heard that I can't even get out of bed."

Lu Chengfeng nodded and said nothing.

Xie Jiuxiao approached again and said, "Sister..."

Lu Chengfeng pretended to have something to do in his heart, and responded perfunctorily.

Xie Jiuxiao said, "Do you want me to be number one?"

Lu Chengfeng heard the words and looked at him: "...do you want to be a son-in-law?"

She quickly glanced at Qin Ruowei beside the emperor, frowned and said, "She has a bad temper and is not suitable for you."

Xie Jiuxiao said: "Then tell me, who is suitable for me?"

Do you have to say this now?
Lu Chengfeng slandered in his heart, but he also thought about it seriously, and said slowly after a long while: "Shen Jiangyue."

Shen Jiangyue, the number one beauty in Nanling.

Xie Jiuxiao pretended to be relaxed: "Why?"

Lu Chengfeng said: "Family background, appearance, talent, all match you."

Xie Jiuxiao laughed lowly: "That's not right."

"What's wrong?"

Xie Jiuxiao said quite proudly: "Although I have never met Shen Jiangyue, I have never heard of someone whose appearance can match mine in the 23 states of Yasukuni."

Lu Chengfeng smiled dumbly. Although he knew what he was telling the truth, he couldn't help but said, "Are you so confident?"

Xie Jiuxiao laughed, put his face closer, and asked quite seriously: "Isn't it?"

Lu Chengfeng stared at that face, carefully studied it, and said solemnly: "Looking at it this way, he looks pretty good..."

Xie Jiuxiao narrowed his eyes: "Is it just okay?"

Lu Chengfeng teased: "Well... Look carefully, it's really not bad."

Xie Jiuxiao said: "... teasing me again."

Lu Chengfeng laughed and said, "Why does a man always care about his appearance?"

Xie Jiuxiao heard the words and said, "...you don't like it?"

Lu Chengfeng said: "Who doesn't like to look at such a pleasing face every day?"

"Okay." Xie Jiuxiao smiled deeply, like a ray of sunshine: "Then how about you watch it every day from now on?"

Lu Chengfeng raised his eyebrows: "What are you talking about?"

"... Where are you confused?"

"Thank you, Second Young Master."

The conversation between the two stopped abruptly, and they both turned their heads.

Qin Ruowei was wearing a bright yellow embroidered dress, with a delicate face, like a peach blossom in March, she raised her skirt and came forward, saying: "Thank you, Second Young Master, so you are here."

It turned out that she had this face for the person she liked.

Lu Chengfeng pursed his lips and walked away.

Xie Jiuxiao's eyes flashed undisguised disgust, he remembered what happened that night, and Lu Chengfeng also warned him not to make trouble, otherwise...

Lu Chengfeng didn't know what the two of them said, but Qin Ruowei, who was originally smiling, turned red-eyed in an instant.

Lu Chengfeng thought, the emperor probably wouldn't want Xie Jiuxiao to be his son-in-law now.

After a while, young men mounted their horses with their bows on their backs. Qin Zhiheng also entered the deep forest accompanied by two guards. Before leaving, Xie Jiuxiao stepped forward and said, "Sister."

He didn't care about other people's eyes, he bent down with a bright smile and said, "I'll wait for you."

Lu Chengfeng nodded and watched him ride away.

The autumn hunt has begun.

Lu Chengfeng glanced at the distance, she was very conscious, she stayed away from the gathering place of the ladies of the family, and walked slowly away alone leading the horse.

The darkness was overwhelmed, and then it was gloomy and then brightened. The weather was a little cloudy and uncertain.

Lu Chengfeng avoided people and rode forward. After passing through the woods, she could vaguely hear sounds from around her. She didn't stop, and continued to walk forward as agreed.

The wind howled.

When he reached the foot of the mountain, he saw Xie Jiuxiao waiting with his horse from a distance. He turned around when he heard the movement, and waved to Lu Chengfeng. "Sister, let's go forward, the prey here is not interesting."

Lu Chengfeng nodded in agreement, and followed into the mountain.

Not long after entering the mountain, after Xie Jiuxiao shot the prey again with an arrow, Lu Chengfeng looked at the person who brought the prey back: "Is this what you said is bad archery?"

Xie Jiuxiao raised his face and smiled: "Comparing with my sister is naturally not good."

Lu Chengfeng raised half of his eyebrows and looked him around.

She obviously wanted to say something with this appearance, Xie Jiuxiao pulled the bow and said, "What? I'm not right?"

Lu Chengfeng said: "How do you know that I am good at archery?"

Xie Jiuxiao said: "Guess."

At a glance, the surroundings were silent, this was only the front of the paddock, if you want to hunt better, you have to go further, Xie Jiuxiao has been waiting for her for half an hour, and the two of them didn't even meet anyone along the way.

Xie Jiuxiao rode his horse forward and turned around without hearing any movement. Seeing that Lu Chengfeng was slowly riding his horse and looking around, he didn't urge him and just waited on the spot.

After walking for a while, Lu Chengfeng said, "Go here."

She went forward first, and Xie Jiuxiao had no doubt that he would follow her. When she reached the dense forest, Lu Chengfeng looked around and said with a smile, "Let's compare, just the two of us, and see who hunts more in an hour." , the winner can make a request."

Comparing Xie Jiuxiao with others has no feeling, but if he compares it with Lu Chengfeng, he immediately becomes excited, Xie Jiuxiao should simply say: "Okay!"

Lu Chengfeng took his bow and arrow and said, "We will meet here in an hour."

Xie Jiuxiao nodded, and rode his horse to the east first. After Lu Chengfeng watched the people go away, he walked along the hidden sign.

The sky turned dark, and it seemed that it was going to rain, but everyone was in high spirits, and they were indifferent to seeing the change of sky.

With his bodyguards, Qin Zhiheng rode his horse to aim at the fleeing prey. He was good at archery, and he had already hunted a lot of wild animals along the way, and all the affairs of the court and the public were temporarily forgotten.

The guard glanced at the sky, and stepped forward to remind: "Your Majesty, the sky is about to change."

Qin Zhiheng said indifferently, drew his bow and aimed into the distance: "...a good thing..."

Following his gaze, there was a big palm-like thing covered in snow that was rustling, and it turned out to be a rare white mink.

Qin Zhiheng let go, unexpectedly the white sable was very sensitive and sensed the danger, Qin Zhiheng shot an arrow in the air and immediately chased after him, with a look of determination flashing in his eyes.

boom!
There was a thunderclap in the sky, dark clouds covered the sky, and figures in the forest flickered.

Qin Zhiheng was not aware of it, and chased wildly all the way. After the second arrow was shot suddenly, there was no movement. He turned over and got off the horse to check. He pushed the grass and found the white mink in the bushes. He looked happy, and suddenly saw the arrow clearly again.

Not his arrows.

At this moment, the two guards who followed were shot down to the ground by the back arrows in the forest.

Qin Zhiheng immediately hid behind the tree trunk and wanted to check the situation, but the next moment an arrow crossbow suddenly fell at his feet.

Qin Zhiheng's complexion changed drastically.
-
Lu Chengfeng jumped down a few times and whistled. Someone from the woods immediately responded, and Qing Feng, who was dressed in black and masked, respectfully said, "Master!"

Lu Chengfeng said: "What's the matter?"

Qingfeng said: "It's very strange. When we entered the mountain, we found a team of well-equipped troops sneaking into the Zhoushan paddock without a sound."

Lu Chengfeng narrowed his eyes: "Speak clearly!"

"More than fifty people, equipped with Yanjing's most sophisticated arrows and crossbows, hid in the mountains. The purpose seems to be the same as ours."

There was a cold light in Lu Chengfeng's eyes: "Where did you go?"

Qing Feng said: "To the east! People are to the east, and the emperor is also there."

Lu Chengfeng remained silent on the spot, his mind flashing quickly.

"master……"

Lu Chengfeng took a deep breath: "It should be Su Wang. Except for him, few people would have discovered this path. He has been dormant for many days, just waiting for today."

Qing Feng said in a deep voice: "Then us?"

Lu Chengfeng made a quick decision: "Get out! Don't leave any traces!"

"Master, you..."

"Don't worry about me, I'm still worried that your actions will be seen through, and it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!" Lu Chengfeng gestured for people to retreat, then quickly got on his horse, and said in a deep voice: "Think of a way to inform people, so that Zhoushan paddock The imperial army has come to support, drive!"
