The husband is actually time-traveling!

Chapter 79 The sweet hunting experience with my husband ([-])

They pressed against the wall and walked as gently as possible.

Palace attendants with rotten and blurred faces were walking up and down the road.

Some were sweeping the floor with brooms with only one stick left, and some were carrying copper basins splattered with dark black blood...

These rotting corpses seemed not to know that they were already dead and were still continuing their activities in life.

Wanyanjing took a breath of cold air. The sight in front of her made her scalp numb, and a chill ran up her spine from her tailbone.

In shock, she pressed the back of her left hand to the hand of the person next to her, but she felt that the wrist was as cold as something, and there was no breath of life at all. The sound of teeth colliding up and down was heard very close to her. "Sound."

"...!??"

Wanyanjing had a bad premonition in her heart. Her neck became stiff and she looked up to her side with difficulty.

Fortunately, she didn't see anything scary. Huo Xiang's human form was complete. Except for his slightly pale face, his profile was still as handsome as before.

His teeth chattered up and down, making a "gurgle" sound.

As if aware of Wan Yanjing's gaze, Huo Xiang also turned his head and looked over, his slightly round eyes full of fear and helplessness.

"Mom...giggle, I, I'm scared..."

"..."

Wanyanjing's heart, which was beating violently due to fear, calmed down inexplicably. She looked away expressionlessly and said coldly: "Go away, I'm not your mother!"

"Miss."

Huo Xiang whispered again. He stretched out his hands and then retracted them, squeezing each other helplessly, as if he wanted to hold Wanyan Jing's arms tightly, but was afraid of affecting her ability to use her beautiful sword. Be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with her carefully.

Wanyan Jing rolled her eyes at him: "You are so useless!"

Huo Xiang pursed her pale lips and did not retort, looking like an aggrieved little daughter-in-law.

His behavior made Wan Yanjing feel a little dazed, as if he had seen him before many years ago.

There were living corpses passing by, noticing the difference between the two of them, and began to gather towards them, but Wanyanjing's thoughts at this time diverged to memories from many years ago.

That was the first year she married Huo Xiang.

In the first year after leaving the country, Wanyanjing lived a low-key and humble life.

Wang Xiaolan and others often came to the mansion to discuss matters. She hid in the backyard and was furious every time she heard news from the maids.

Huo Xiang's words about her being a useless royal beauty kept echoing in her mind.

At that time, the State of Qin had not yet moved its capital to Beijing, and the Wuxuan Palace did not have the grandeur of later generations. It was just an ordinary three-in-one mansion. Princess Yi An was going to die of frustration.

But she would rather be depressed than go out. She would never go to non-essential social events. She would stay at home every day, either practicing calligraphy or reading storybooks.

However, the predecessor of the Qin State, the Wei State, was founded on etiquette. The Qin State, which was based on the veterans of the Wei State, inevitably had complicated etiquette. Various palace banquets, sacrifices, hunting and other activities emerged in an endless stream at regular intervals.

But among them, hunting is Wanyanjing's favorite activity.There are no rules in Daikin, and women can also ride and shoot.

Although Wan Yanjing usually likes to be quiet, her riding and shooting skills are not bad. Women are not allowed to go hunting in the Qin State, but it is quite interesting for her to watch others race and hunt during the banquet.

Hunting grounds, racetracks... were in full swing. Regardless of their official position or status, everyone was vying to show off in front of the emperor. Only Huo Xiang was an outlier. He was sitting at the table in elegant white clothes with gold patterns. He was not in a hurry. Tasting the wine slowly, at first glance I thought he was a delicate and frail scholar.

Wanyanjing watched the court with great interest, ignoring Huo Xiangli beside her, showing great disgust, and happily asked Yushi to take out the silver to bet on the knight she was optimistic about.

At this time, Huo Xiang suddenly spoke, his voice still cold, but Wanyanjing almost thought that she had heard wrong because of the content.

"You also like riding horses?"

Wan Yanjing glanced at him inexplicably: "None of your business!"

Unexpectedly, the sun seemed to be rising in the west that day. Huo Xiang was choked by her but did not get angry. He even said to her:
"If you want to learn, I can teach you."

Wan Yanjing curled her lips and squinted sarcastically: "I can ride a horse and shoot rabbits at the age of ten, and I still need your teaching. The royal family's delicate ladies dare not trouble King Xuan. You should always look after Miss Wang more."

Huo Xiang let out a surprised sound, reached out and pinched her little arm, then quickly retracted it, avoiding Wan Yanjing's swing and hitting him on the sleeve:
"You can beat rabbits with your thin arms? Who are you kidding?"

Wanyan Jing was very angry when she was questioned, but with so many people watching at the table, it was hard for her to get angry, so she could only sulk by herself.

Huo Xiang paused and then said: "I happened to get two good horses a few days ago. How about going for a walk in the forest? If you can really hunt a rabbit and come back, the tiger balm you clamored to buy last time will be paid to you as a bet. How about it, do you dare?"

"That's called Wanjinliu. What the hell is Wanjinliu? But are you serious? If I really hit a rabbit, you can't regret it!" Wanyanjing looked at him suspiciously.

Huo Xiang sneered: "Although that tiger balm is expensive and useless, it's like rubbish, but I have plenty of money, so I can still afford to pay for it with a bet."

Wan Yanjing sneered at the conclusion that "there is money" and thought that if she was really rich, why not return her dowry.

But Huo Xiang actually planned to take her to play for the first time. It was hard for her to mention this and irritate him. If she really made him angry, the play would be impossible.

So they quietly left the table, changed into light clothes, and went to the inaccessible back mountain of the hunting ground.

Although she hadn't ridden a horse for a long time, Wan Yanjing regained her feeling after running around for two times, and shot a pheasant with a short bow.

"I hit the target. This chicken has more meat than the rabbit." Wan Yanjing dismounted skillfully, picked up her prey, and said proudly to Huo Xiang behind her.

Huo Xiang followed her on horseback in a leisurely manner, but he replied casually: "Okay, then you win."

His deceptive attitude made Wan Yanjing a little angry, and she wanted to say something to him, but she looked around and found that she had reached a deeper forest without realizing it, and the sky was getting darker, and she couldn't help but feel a little scared.

"Then let's go back, it's getting dark."

She pulled the reins and prepared to return, but Huo Xiang behind her blocked her way.

"There's no rush to go back. I still have some old friends I want to meet for a while. Besides, living in the mountains and forests at night seems to be quite wild."

Huo Xiang's voice was faint, and his face was dim in the shadow of the backlight. He might be staring at her like a poisonous snake with a sinister and evil expression.

Wanyanjing froze.
