Let the arrow go out of control
Only Nangong Jingnu really obeyed Nangong Rang's words: she went back to the bedroom and fell asleep in peace. All the other royals stayed up all night.
The next day, Nangong Rang was about to lead the crowd to the Xishan Mountain to worship their ancestors, but when he walked halfway up the mountain, he ordered everyone to kneel on the spot and wait, walking to the ancestral grave alone.
The fire spread from the front mountain, and the interior of the ancestral tomb did not suffer, but several stone stakes standing in front of the cemetery were burned.
The chief officials of the various ministries knelt tremblingly in front of the stone pillars, and Nangong let them walk silently through the group without saying a word.
When he came to the altar, he took a tall incense stick and lit it silently, inserted it into the square tripod, and knelt on the ground.
"You all step back, I'll be alone for a while."
"Yes."
…
Nangong Rang completed the sacrifice alone, and no one knows what he said to the ancestors of the Nangong family in his ancestral tomb.
Even Si Jiu, who had served by his side for more than 40 years, was rejected.
After the ceremony, Nangong Rang went down the mountain alone and said to everyone, "Return to the palace to rest for a few days, and then set off for the Yongzhou hunting ground."
"According to the order."
No one could guess what Nangong Rang was thinking, and it was reasonable to say that when such an ominous thing happened, the hunt should be canceled and he should go back to the palace.
Three days later, Nangong Rang suddenly called everyone over: "The ancestral tomb in Xishan caught fire a few days ago..."
All the princes and grandsons in the hall held their breaths, bowed their heads and bowed down to wait for their instructions.
"I have ordered people to conduct a thorough investigation, and everyone will keep their mouths shut until there is no result."
"According to the order."
The next day I drove, and for another three days, I came to the Yongzhou Royal Hunting Ground.
In the south of Yongzhou, it is the return of spring, which is the best time for spring hunting.
Except for Nangong Shunv who is not familiar with riding and archery, all the imperial heirs have changed into a bunt, and Nangong Jingnu is wearing a red bunt today.
In the past, hunting Nangong made Dudu come to an end and hit the jackpot with his own hands.
But this year, he felt that his body was not as good as before, and he said some decent words and handed over the hunting ground to the princes.
Nangong Jingnu, carrying a small bow behind her back, asked Qi Yan enthusiastically, "Are you going?"
"I will not go if I don't know how to ride and shoot. I wish Your Highness the arrows will not be missed."
"Ben Gong will definitely be able to hunt a deer this time, I'm leaving!"
Nangong Jingnu was riding a fat mare. Qi Yan only glanced at it from a distance and recognized that the horse was Yuhuacong, known for her docile temperament, so she felt relieved.
Nangong Jingnu stepped on the back of the horse and took the reins from the waiter, while the other waiter put two pots of arrows on both sides of the saddle.
Qi Yan stared at this Nangong Jing from a distance: fresh clothes and angry horses, with high spirits.
Nangong Jingnu waved to Qi Yan, pulled the reins and turned the horse's head: "Drive!"
Qi Yan looked at her slightly stiff body and smiled secretly: "It's not as good as Xiaodie's ride yet."
But Nangong Jingnv's mount Qi Yan was relieved. Not long after he surrendered Liu Huo, Bayin's father captured a jade flower cong for him. The horse's legs were not under Liu Huo, but its temperament was much more docile than Liu Huo. A three-year-old child will not fall off when riding.
The morning passed quickly, and Nangong Wang and Nangong Zhen made a lot of gains. Nangong Wang killed two deer, six rabbits, and a fox.
Nangong Zhen hunted a deer, a deer, and five rabbits.
Although the fifth prince, Nangongda, was born lame, it did not affect his performance on horseback, and he also hunted a deer.
The sixth prince, Nangong Lie, hunted several rabbits and pheasants, but there was no arrow on the prey and he didn't know how he caught them.
Even the younger ones brought back a rabbit each.
Only Nangong Jingnv found nothing, and came back riding a jade flower cong.
Several people put the spoils under the high platform, and after lunch they rushed into the hunting ground one after another.
Nangong Jingnu dismounted from the horse far away, and walked slowly to Qi Yan while holding the reins.
Qi Yan handed over the cowhide water bottle: "Is Your Highness tired? Go back to the tent to rest?"
Nangong Jingnu pouted: "Bengong didn't hunt anything..."
"It doesn't matter, there are three days left."
Nangong Jingnu took the kettle and took a sip: "I don't believe that I can't hunt, so I'm leaving."
Nangong Jingnu stepped on the stirrup to mount the horse, and Yuhuacong suddenly snorted!
Qi Yan's heart skipped a beat: "Your Highness!"
"Applause!" Nangong Jingnu shook the reins: "What's wrong?"
Qi Yan walked to Yuhuacong's side and stroked its snow-white mane: "I have never seen such a beautiful horse before, I want to touch it."
Nangong Jingnu smiled and said, "If you like this palace, I can teach you to ride horses."
Qi Yan's heart tensed: There is something wrong with this jade flower cong! Its heart is very manic and refuses Qi Yan's communication.
Qi Yan calmly retracted her hand, raised her head and said, "Okay."
"Do you want to learn?"
"I am very envious of His Highness's heroic galloping horses, and I also want to learn it."
"That's good, I will have someone lead a horse for you."
Qi Yan's eyes sank: "I want to ride this horse of Your Highness."
Nangong Jingnu was a little embarrassed: her riding skills were actually not very good, this Jade Flower Cong was docile and humane.
Only when she rides it, Nangong Jingnu will not worry about falling down. Qi Yan is better than her in everything, and she can teach him the same thing after all, but she can't show her cowardice.
Nangong Jingnu hesitantly said: "No, this jade flower cong only recognizes this palace."
"Let me try it out?"
Nangong Jingnu was a little flustered, and clenched the reins: "Bengong ordered someone to choose a good horse for you!"
Qi Yan held on to the horse's nib and didn't let go: "I have only ridden a horse twice, so I don't dare to ride alone... Could Your Highness share a ride with me?"
Nangong Jingnv thought for a while and reached out to Qi Yan, Qi Yan took Nangong Jingnv's hand with one hand, and pulled the saddle on the horse's back with the other.
As soon as she got on the horse, Yuhuacong neighed, snoring and kicking her hooves uneasy.
"Hey! Xiaobai, don't move, Qi Yan is his own."
Qi Yan felt that Yu Huacong had restrained the restlessness in her heart so she did not throw the two off the horse, and tried to communicate with the horse in her heart, but with little success.
The neighing of the horses was heard from far away. Many people looked towards Nangong Jingnu. Seeing that the princess and the concubine were riding together, they retracted their gazes. Nangong Lie threw the empty cowhide water bottle to the entourage, raised his sleeves and wiped it. Wipe your mouth.
Others' kettles were filled with water, but Nangong Lie secretly put fine wines in the kettles. He looked at Qi Yan's back with a charming smile, and got on his horse.
Nangong Jingnu smiled when she saw that Yu Huacong really listened to her words: "Hurry up, this palace will take you for a yo-yo first."
Qi Yan wrapped her arms around Nangong Jingnu's waist with one hand, and pulled the reins on one side with the other.
There has never been a horse in the world that would refuse to communicate with him, this jade flower cong must have been manipulated.
A glimmer of light flashed in the amber eyes: Could it be that someone wants to harm Nangong Jingnu
The horse ran up, and Qi Yan hugged Nangong Jingnu's waist tightly: "His Royal Highness, slow down."
"Take it easy, don't be so nervous, Yu Huacong meekly remembers this feeling..."
Nangong Jingnu, who was unaware, was still comforting Qi Yan in a soft voice, when a series of fine horse hooves came from behind, Qi Yan turned around and saw Nangong Lie waving his horse whip and running towards them.
Nangong Lie let out a lewd smile and looked at Qi Yan and licked his lips.
An ominous premonition slipped through Qi Yan's heart, but it was too late...
The dark horse under Nangong Lie's seat was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, he was already behind the two of them. When he was about to pass them, Nangong Lie took out a slingshot and blocked it with his body, and shot a stone into Yuhua. Cong's ass...
"His Royal Highness!" Qi Yan tightened the reins with one hand, and clasped Nangong Jingnu's waist so that her entire back was pressed into her arms.
Yu Huacong, who was on the verge of madness, was completely mad by Nangong Lie's stimulation.
It neighed and raised a pair of front hooves high, Nangong Jingnu screamed and leaned back, but felt a timely thrust from the warm chest behind her, helping her stabilize her figure.
Yuhuacong's two front hooves just landed, and then began to raise its rear hooves again - Shijiazi.
Nangong Jingnu was completely panicked and screamed from time to time.
The guards in the distance mounted their horses one after another and rushed towards them.
Qi Yan looked at Nangong Lie's figure disappearing into the jungle, and gritted her teeth.
She was also working very hard at the moment. Yu Huacong was in a frenzy, but she could only pull half of the reins. Nangong Jingnu in front of her was also pulling the reins from time to time. She couldn't control the horse at all.
Yu Huacong refused to communicate with Qi Yan. While she wanted to protect Nangong Jingnu from falling off the horse, she also pretended to fall off the horse at any time in order not to let the guards who heard the sound come to see the clue.
Come on people!
Yu Huacong threw out more than a dozen leg flowers in a row, and the guards came near them. The next moment, Yu Huacong made a manic neigh, and rushed out like an arrow from the string.
"what… !"
"Your Highness!"
Nangong Jingnu's mind was blank, and she felt the shadows of the surrounding trees passing by quickly, and the branches of the trees kept passing over her head, making a "swish" sound.
"Your Highness!"
Nangong Jingnu was so scared that she wanted to close her eyes but she didn't dare, she cried out, "Qi Yan, Qi Yan save me..."
Qi Yan put her arms around Nangong Jingnu's waist and looked back. The guards had been left far behind by Yu Huacong...
The yellow-maned horse the guard rides is just average, how could he catch up with the crazy Yuhuacong
Even if she can't communicate with Ma'er, Qi Yan has the confidence to subdue it. The problem is that Nangong Jingnv is sitting in her arms and is followed by Wei Guo's bodyguard.
Besides, this Jade Flower Cong is so irritable, Qi Yan is not sure that he will keep Nangong Jingnv safe in the process of subduing the horse.
Qi Yan looked back again: those guards were thrown farther and farther away, but they still pursued with perseverance.
It's impossible to count on them to help, and following behind will only get in the way...
Qi Yan shouted: "His Royal Highness, grab the reins and the guards are here to save us!" After speaking, she put her arms around Nangong Jingnu's arm and added strength again.
She leaned forward, pressed Nangong Jingnu and lowered her center of gravity, lifted her legs and slammed them on the horse's stomach.
Yu Huacong snorted and accelerated again.
"what!!"
"His Royal Highness, hold on to the reins!" Qi Yan let go of the hand that was pulling the reins, pressed the back of Nangong Jingnu's hand holding the reins, and clenched it tightly.
