Chapter 171 Inside the Paddock
Qin's concerned voice brought Zhao Jing back to his senses. He turned to look at his mother-in-law, and responded to her words, "Mother, I'm fine."

"You child, you have always talked about everything with your mother, why do you have a little secret now?"

Putting the supper on the small table, Qin smiled and sat opposite Zhao Jing, "Is it because you are thinking about your majesty and your father and brother? Don't worry, our family is good at martial arts and resourcefulness. Even if we are in danger, we can definitely save the day .”

When she said this, Zhao Jing couldn't help but be a little surprised, "Where did mother say that?"

After all, the paddock spring hunting was the name of the trip, and many ministers who followed thought so, and they didn't know the deeper things.

Even though it was the Xie family, he did not reveal too much before leaving. He believed in the Xie family, but it is best that as few people as possible know about this matter, the better. His original plan was to tell everyone when he was on the road.

Now that Xie Zhao is taking her place, her father and brother must have known about it, but Mrs. Hou...

"Years ago, when your fourth brother and fifth brother came back, the dealer boy also came to our house to play. They were afraid that he would run away, so they came to our house to look for him. Before he left, he told your fourth brother and Yu'er to let them travel Be careful, there may be a bloody disaster."

"Don't worry, and don't worry. Since your fourth brother and Yu brother both know, they will be cautious. At that time, my mother was thinking, just go hunting, how could there be bloody disasters?"

"After your father and brother set off, I thought about your fifth brother who stayed in Beijing for my mother, and I probably had some ideas in my heart. This trip must not be that simple."

"Usually when you go out for spring hunting or autumn hunting, you can bring concubines and officials with you, but this time there is none. Anyway, as a mother, you have been to the battlefield. Can you still not understand?"

I see……

After listening to Qin's words, Zhao Jing couldn't help sighing in his heart. Speaking of which, Xie Zhao's temperament was more like his mother-in-law, Qin's, and he really deserved to be a mother and daughter.

Thinking about it, their princess would have the same temper as her grandmother and Xie Zhao, so it's not bad if you think about it this way.

only……

If the belly is really a princess... He sighed in his heart.

It's not that he doesn't like the princess, it's just that when he thinks that he will switch with Xie Zhao, if he becomes pregnant again, he may still have to come, and he has a headache.

"Supper is getting cold, Mo thinks about it, eat some while it's hot." Qin's gentle voice came again, Zhao Jing responded, picked up a small bowl, and tasted Qin's handicrafts.

He still misses Xie Zhao's side in his heart, but, because of the distance, he can only think about it.

-

"Your Majesty." At the beginning of a new day, after having breakfast, Xie Zhao came out of the tent and moved his body.

Hearing the voice, she turned her head to look over, and what Zhao Jing said to her when she was in the palace came to mind.

"Uncle Yu Wang was once the most powerful opponent of the late emperor and the son of the favorite concubine. He almost succeeded to the throne. After the first emperor ascended the throne, he wanted to get rid of him quickly. Far away."

"The son he taught is naturally no worse than him. Uncle Yu Wang is too old to go to the paddock this time, but his son will definitely come, and he will definitely challenge the majesty of the emperor several times."

Withdrawing his thoughts, Xie Zhao looked at Zhao Xuan, the son of King Yu. He was older than Zhao Jing, but only a few years old, but he seemed to be ten years older.

"Your Majesty came to the paddock to hunt, why didn't you bring some beauties to accompany you? I came here this time, but I brought a few. If you don't let them come, your Majesty, you can choose one? They all taste good."

Seeing that His Majesty didn't speak, Zhao Xuan didn't feel embarrassed, he smiled and said again.

"Then you can keep it by yourself." Looking at Zhao Xuan, Xie Zhao responded, although there was a little smile on her face, it made Zhao Xuan feel a chill down his spine.

He laughed a few times, saluted Xie Zhao, and then went to his tent.

Xie Zhao looked at his back and knew very well that this was one of the people to be eliminated this time.

Don't look at King Yu's defeat at the beginning, but he has always been evil-hearted. Zhao Jing's brothers and brothers are all stupid to death, even cooperating with him and daring to communicate with foreign enemies.

As for how to deal with them, Xie Zhao already had other ideas in her mind, completely different from what she had discussed with Zhao Jing.

"Your Majesty." There was another voice, which was figurative, "The last general has checked everywhere and can start at any time."

Xie Zhao nodded. It was predictable that there would be dangers during hunting, and even if they had been checked, they might not be absolutely safe.

"Be careful." She warned, "You can use the opportunity of hunting to get rid of the inner response directly."

Since it is hunting, the arrows used must be capable of causing damage if one wants to hunt the prey in the enclosure.

This arrow can hunt animals in the paddock, and of course it can kill people.

In previous years' hunts, it was not without accidental misses.

"By the way, you must check the weapons you carry with you to avoid being dropped."

Thinking of something, Xie Zhao gave another order, Yan Yu took the order, and went to give orders.

The hunt was about to begin, and all the people who came to the paddock came out of their tents.

Since it is hunting, it is natural to have a lottery. Xie Zhao ordered people to put it out and explained the rules of this time.

Sitting on the horse, you don't have to look around, you can feel that there are many eyes on yourself, and some of them are like thorns on their backs, full of malice.

With a cold snort in his heart, Xie Zhao put his feet on the horse's belly, and took the lead towards the forest.

Immediately, someone followed closely behind, and slowly dispersed in the woods.

Not everyone who came to the paddock would go hunting. Although Xie Huai'an was good at riding and shooting, he stayed. With him at the rear, Xie Zhao would never have any worries.

If someone with disobedience wants to take advantage of His Majesty's absence and play tricks on the rear... It is impossible to meet Xie Huai'an, unless you want to die.

In the woods, there were constant voices. Xie Zhao was riding on the horse, her mind was on alert. She was holding a bow in one hand and an arrow in the other. She would not hesitate at the slightest disturbance.

Yan Yu was not with her, and he and Xie Zhao were separated, which had been discussed before.

Zhao Xuan was not the only one who came to the paddock this time to fish in troubled waters. There were also other royal family members. Those people would not put their eggs in one basket, so it is best to supervise them separately.

"Stop for a moment." Reining in the rein, Xie Zhao stopped, and her intuition told her that there was something abnormal nearby.

She first observed the surrounding area of ​​the forest, carefully perceiving that there was nothing wrong with it, and then she set her eyes on the ground.

"Go there and have a look." Pointing to one place, she told a soldier, "Don't approach it directly, look for something to test."

After receiving the order, the soldier broke off a branch and headed towards the direction His Majesty pointed. The branch was in front of him, and kept hitting the ground.

Suddenly, the branch in his hand sank downward, poking a hole.
