Harem: Biography of Concubine Qin

Chapter 294 Grassland Hunting
When everyone walked out of the king's tent, they saw two ponies surrounded by a group of maids and maids in the open space between the tents.

Immediately, there was a woman on each side, one was dressed in a water-red palace dress that is fashionable in Beijing, and the other was dressed in a white Hanfu with large sleeves.

Just looking at the uniforms of the two of them, you can tell that they are not Mongolian women.

Everyone was still watching carefully, the emperor was the first to say: "The one in red is the princess, and the one in white is Concubine Qin."

Looking from a distance, I feel that Chen Wenxin is quite stable on the horse, while Princess Wen Yi is a little staggering.

Prince Horqin blurted out, "Oh, the princess can't ride a horse!"

The emperor couldn't help but glanced at him, this Prince Horqin seemed to be quite attentive to the princess, and his tone was very nervous.

"Don't worry, Concubine Qin can ride a horse."

Looking at the movements of the two figures, one red and one white, one knew that Chen Wenxin was teaching the princess how to ride a horse.

The princess has already married on the Mongolian grassland, if she doesn't know how to ride a horse, it would be a lot less fun.

Chen Wenxin's meddling temperament was committed again, the princess's eyes turned red just now, and she just looked at Prince Horqin like that.

He stared blankly at a big man in the prairie, and stayed there.

If it weren't for their similar age, I'm afraid they would have thought they were two biological mothers and daughters.

But Chen Wenxin herself is half-baked at riding a horse, how did she teach the princess?
The emperor asked: "Lan Xiang, did you teach Concubine Qin's riding skills?"

Chen Wenyi looked at the figures of the two from a distance, and saw that Chen Wenxin's movements seemed similar, so he nodded.

If she forgets about her riding skills, then it's better for Chen Wenyi not to admit it.

"It's taught by the minister, but the empress is in the palace all year round, so she doesn't have much chance to ride a horse. I'm afraid I'm going to be unfamiliar."

"Let's go on horseback too. The grasslands are vast, and we can roam freely on horseback."

The emperor became playful for a while, and naturally none of the ministers who followed him refused to follow.

Prince Horqin said: "The emperor also went to see the scenery outside our fortress, but now the weather is cold and the grass is withered and yellow, not as beautiful as in summer."

The emperor smiled and said: "It's okay. Beijing is very restrained, and I just want to run around in such a big place. Take out your good bows and arrows, and I will get you some wild animals. Let's have a bonfire at night."

Seeing that the emperor was in a good mood, all the leaders felt at ease and flexed their muscles.

"Quick, bring the bows and arrows."

One of the great advantages of hunting on the grassland is that there are no obstacles to stop people.

The disadvantage is that there are fewer prey in the endless wilderness.

A leader who has seen the world said: "I heard that every time the emperor hunts, he has to fence up a place to put the animals in. Now our grassland is not fenced, and we don't prepare animals. How can we let the emperor die? "

The emperor waved his hand, "Although there are many prey, it is not as wild as yours. You don't have to be restrained, just follow your usual hunting rules."

As soon as the emperor said this, everyone was no longer worried.

"Tell Concubine Qin and Princess Wen Yi to go together. This is on the grassland, so don't worry so much."

If it was in Beijing, there would naturally be no reason for concubines and princesses to hunt together with princes and ministers.

There are not so many details on the grassland, and it is good to relax at this time.

Everyone passed by, Chen Wenxin and Princess Wen Yi got off their horses when they saw it.

Chen Wenxin saw a group of horses following behind, and immediately loaded their bow bags and quiver, and knew that they were going to hunt.

"Is the emperor going to hunt wild sheep? I will go too!"

Relying on the fact that he had learned horses for a few days, and being in the grassland where there is no restraint, Chen Wenxin also became arrogant.

The emperor clearly wanted to take her there, but seeing her like this, he pretended to hesitate and said: "You are not good at riding, and if the horse runs fast, I'm afraid it will throw you off. Even if you can ride a horse, you have never learned how to archery."

"Although I have never learned archery, at least I have learned this."

She flicked her hand from the sleeve, revealing a black short-barreled shotgun.

The black gun was playing with her white fingers, and the strong contrast made one's heart sway.

Only Yu Jie, who followed Chen Wenyi, complained that the two brothers and sisters were exactly the same, and they both liked to hide their shotguns in their sleeves.

When the Mongolian leaders saw this thing, they were familiar with it for a while, but they couldn't believe it.

One of them said: "This, is it a shotgun? How can it be so short?"

Among them, the one who is most familiar with this thing is Prince Horqin.

When Chen Wenyi led his army to kill Prince Daguer, he used this kind of shotgun that could scare the horses away.

It seems that the little one is inconspicuous, but it can penetrate the crowd and take the head of the enemy general.

All the Mongolian leaders became curious, and even the officials from the capital brought by the emperor wanted to take a look at it because they didn't know anything about it.

Chen Wenxin smiled and said: "This is a modified short-barreled shotgun. It is lighter and more powerful than the original one. I will demonstrate it to you, but the horse must be pulled away."

These horses on the prairie are not used to hearing gunshots, and it would be bad if they were startled and caused confusion.

The emperor is still standing on the ground, if there is a mistake, the loss outweighs the gain.

According to the words, everyone pulled the horse away, and retreated a little further, so that she could display it.

The Mongolian leaders saw that her arms were straight, and she stretched out the short-barreled shotgun in her hand. That posture was decent.

It is only said that Mongolian women are good at riding and hunting, but Manchu women are all brave and strong before entering the customs.

After entering the customs, living in the houses and palaces of the Han people, and eating the food of the Han people, they became as quiet as the Han people.

Not to mention Chen Wenxin, who was wearing a Hanfu in front of her, she was clearly a Han woman.

It's fine if you don't bind your feet, but you can still shoot a gun?
Seeing that she is full of posture and not giving in at all, she presumably has great confidence in her spear skills.

I saw the servant drive a sheep out of the pen, and then gave it a hard slap on the buttocks.

The sheep ran forward in pain, right in front of Chen Wenxin's gun.

"boom--"

With a sound like thunder, the running goat in front of him fell to the ground.

The Mongolian leaders were dumbfounded on the spot, and one of them couldn't wait for the servants to pick up the goat, so he ran over to pick up the dead sheep by himself.

"Oh my god, the stomach is pierced!"

At such a long distance, even the best archer may not be able to shoot through the stomach of a sheep.

Several Mongolian leaders who had never seen Rare all surrounded them, and they almost took out the sheep's belly to see the wounds inside.

Even Nalan Rongruo and the others thought it strange, "Your Majesty is good at marksmanship, this newly modified shotgun is actually so powerful?"

He had heard Nalan Yulu say it before, but he didn't believe it.

Thinking of her as a lady in the boudoir, she hadn't seen much of this, so she was bluffed for a while.

I didn't expect to be so majestic when I saw it with my own eyes today.

Chen Wenxin raised the gun in front of all the adults, "Just look at it with my hand, it's just that you haven't learned it. This gun is easy to go off, so it's better not to touch it."

Those grown-ups gathered in a circle to watch carefully, only there was a gap in the direction of the muzzle of the gun.

——Chen Wenxin said that this gun is easy to go off.

They didn't want to end up with that dead sheep.

Those Mongolian leaders had seen the dead sheep, and they also wanted to see the shotgun.

Seeing that Chen Wenxin was already surrounded by people, it was difficult for them to get close.

If you want to get close, you can only stand in the direction of the muzzle.

Then don't read it, life is much more important than curiosity.

"cough……"

The emperor coughed, and everyone returned to their respective positions.

"Since that's the case, I'll take you with me. The princess will go too."

When Princess Wen Yi saw the emperor mentioning her, she was a little annoyed and said, "Huang Ama, I don't know how to ride a horse yet."

Chen Wenxin said directly: "Why is this difficult? You are sitting on the prince's horse."

As soon as she said this, Princess Wen Yi blushed.

Although it's not too much for a husband and wife to behave like this, but she and Lord Horqin are just newly married, and they are in a state of admiration and respect for each other.

When Chen Wenxin said this, she was at a loss as to what to do.

"Ah, Feng Da flashed his tongue just now."

Chen Wenxin said with a smile: "Princess sits on my horse. Although she doesn't shoot or hunt, it's good to have some fun."

Princess Wen Yi was afraid that she would say something more embarrassing, so she quickly agreed to the idea.

"I have to trouble Mother Qin'er."

So everyone got on their horses, except for Chen Wenyi and his men, only Chen Wenxin was holding a gun.

The emperor is also not used to this shotgun, he still likes bows and arrows, let him use bows and arrows to compete with those Mongolian leaders.

All of a sudden, there was a loud clap of horseshoes.

The emperor rode in front, followed by the horses of Chen Wenxin and Chen Wenyi.

Those Mongolian leaders followed behind, and together with a group of courtiers, they rushed to the distance in a mighty way.

Although Chen Wenxin is not proficient in riding skills, she is smart, and with the guidance of a good teacher, Chen Wenyi, she seems to be quite stable.

Therefore, the emperor was relieved, and only asked Chen Wenyi to send someone to protect Chen Wenxin and the princess.

Chen Wenyi asked Ouyang Jiaoyue to follow them on horseback with a few guards. Ouyang Jiaoyue was not only good at spear, but also better at riding and martial arts than ordinary women.

She was a daughter again, if something happened, it would be more convenient to have her around than a man.

Chen Wenyi divided his attention into two parts, looking at the emperor's side and Chen Wenxin's side.

Also pay attention to the crowd at all times, and don't let idlers mix into the hunting team.

After all, this was a hunt on the emperor's whim, and there was no clearance or checkpoints to stop it beforehand, so it's best to be careful.

"Look, yellow fox!"

Someone in the crowd yelled, and everyone looked forward, and sure enough, there was a yellow fox with a pair of black eyes open.

As if sensing everyone's gaze, it quickly let go and ran forward.

Two horses galloped out behind him, the emperor laughed loudly, "There are two people chasing them, let's disperse."

So everyone scattered around looking for prey, and Chen Wenxin and the princess's horse followed closely behind the emperor's.
