Su Li was startled. Before he could issue a warning, he saw Dongfang Ze's expression condensed and he leaned back. The sharp arrow almost missed the tip of his nose and flew past, then shot into the jungle on the right with a pop.
Sheng Qin jumped up in shock, drew his sword and shouted: "Who is so bold?!"
Dongfang Zhuo, holding a bow and arrow, rode out from the jungle on the left. His face was calm, but there was a hint of evil aura. But the evil spirit disappeared in an instant, so fast that Su Li thought he had an illusion. The guard behind him, Zhao Xun, rushed forward and pulled out the sharp arrow that had been shot into the tree trunk behind Dongfangze. The arrow was also nailed to a green snake.
Sheng Qin was stunned for a moment, Dongfang Ze laughed deeply and said, "Brother the Second Emperor is good at archery!"
As if he couldn't hear what was going on, Dongfang Zhuo snorted disdainfully and said: "I don't like the snake, so I just shot it for fun. It's just that the Mo Bao that the Sixth Emperor had spotted ran away, so he must be very anxious!" I'm afraid it won't be that easy for the Sixth Emperor's younger brother to compete for the top spot in hunting!" He looked deeply at Su Li.
"Just run and look for it. The paddock is so big and there are many animals in the forest in front of you. Are you afraid that you won't be able to hunt? It depends on whether the emperor's horse can be faster than me!" Dongfang Ze smiled lightly.
Dongfang Zhuo's face darkened, "The Sixth Emperor's Wu Ya is unparalleled in the world, but don't forget, there are beautiful women following behind."
Dongfang Ze's eyes darkened, "I don't need to worry about the second brother, I will not forget Su Su even if I forget anyone. Su Su, come here." He turned around and stretched out his hand towards her, giving her a gentle smile.
Su Li drove the horse forward, but did not pass her hand to him. She only said calmly: "Mo Bao has run away. Prince, you should chase after him quickly!" She didn't like being used as an excuse by the two brothers. Su Li may have been weak in the past, but now she doesn't need others to protect her as a weak person all the time.
Dongfangze's eyes flashed, and he quickly stretched out his hands to wrap his arms around her waist. He actually brought her to him and hugged her tightly.
.
Su Li frowned and looked up to see his deep eyes, turbulent and undercurrent, knowing that if he struggled at this time, he would definitely think too much. Therefore, although she felt unhappy, she still stayed silent in his arms and did not move.
The fragrance of the woman's skin in his arms came in waves, and Dongfang Ze felt an inexplicable throbbing in his heart. He couldn't control it, and he lowered his head and kissed her on the cheek, as if he was possessed.
Su Li was slightly startled when she saw his head lowered suddenly. She tilted her head subconsciously, and his warm lips fell on her face.
Being so affectionate in front of so many outsiders made Su Li's face turn slightly red and she felt secretly annoyed. Why did Dongfang Ze suddenly become so wild? No matter the time or occasion! Could it be that after getting engaged, he thought that she would be his sooner or later, so he no longer had any scruples
Su Li frowned and raised her hand to push him, only to hear a cold snort coming from the left side.
Dongfang Zhuo clenched his fists and his pupils shrank. Seeing the person he loved being affectionate with others, he didn't even have the position or the right to stop it. Dongfang Zhuo felt as if someone had stabbed a sharp knife in his heart. He was in pain as if he was dying, but there was nothing he could do. He couldn't help gritting his teeth and said: "Zhao Xun, let's go!" Taking a deep breath, he turned the horse's head, forced himself not to look at her flushed cheeks, and ran in the other direction. He has not forgotten the fear, anger, and deep disgust she showed in front of him, but in the arms of another person, her anger is like coquettishness, which will only make people feel itchy and unable to bear to let go.
Dongfangze knew that this was not a good time to be intimate, but the surging sex in his body was so painful that he unconsciously tightened his arms. The beauty in his arms was obviously very uneasy, and her beautiful eyes were tinged with anger.
"Your Majesty!" She finally couldn't control herself and scolded, "If you delay any longer, the credit will belong to others."
She turned her head and was about to jump off the horse. Dongfang Ze took a deep breath, forced himself to ignore the weird pain, and let go of her. Su Li took advantage of this opportunity, jumped off the horse, and flew onto his own horse with neat movements. , and flew forward.
Dongfangze was stunned for a moment and quickly caught up without thinking. Slightly different from the usual elegance and nobility, the galloping woman immediately has a strong and neat posture and a heroic posture. Although the riding speed is fast, she is more composed. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said: "If I had known that Su Su's riding skills were so good, why would I have delayed my trip for you!"
Su Li smiled lightly and said, "I thought you were here to enjoy the scenery along the way."
Dongfangze snorted in a deep voice, and then said: "You have never left the prime minister's house since you were a child. Who did you learn this riding skill from? Could it be that Princess Mingyu also taught you in a dream?"
Su Li raised her eyebrows slightly, "Can't you?"
Dongfangze looked at her, his eyes darkened slightly, and he stopped talking.
. Through the detoxification, he determined her feelings, but he became increasingly unable to guess her thoughts. Since she really likes him, why is she so defensive, refusing to tell the truth in front of him, and increasingly avoiding getting close to him
After chasing all the way, there was no sign of Mo Bao. Su Li was about to say, was he chasing in the wrong direction? At this time, the black leopard hiding in the distant jungle keenly felt the hunter's tracking, cast a fierce and hostile gaze, and then quickly flew deeper into the jungle.
How could Dongfang Ze let it go this time? He quickly nocked an arrow and drew out his bow. Hearing a whooshing sound, accompanied by a strong wind, the sharp arrows flew forward like a spiral.
The beast's roar followed and resounded throughout the world, causing all the hunters in the enclosure to tremble.
Su Li and Wan Xin were both stunned, and glanced at each other subconsciously. It was true that Dongfang Ze had superb archery skills and never missed a shot. Although this spiral archery technique is more accurate than a straight shot, its speed is greatly reduced, so no one knows how to use it. However, in Dongfangze's hands, the flying speed of the arrow only increased. It was such a long distance, and she couldn't even see where the prey was, but he was able to hit it accurately, which showed that he was not only skilled in archery. It’s amazing, your intuition is sharp, and your inner strength is unfathomable! Especially now that the poison of the love flower has been cured, he no longer has any scruples.
Sheng Qin immediately went to pick up the prey. Dongfang Ze and Su Li drove their horses forward. At this moment, deep in the forest, a woman shouted excitedly: "I hit it! I hit it!"
Accompanied by the cheerful and straightforward woman's crisp smile, a fiery red figure flew over like a cloud in the sky. The person was wearing fiery red clothes and dressed like a foreigner. She was about fifteen or sixteen years old. Her hair was tied up high, and her figure was flying in the air as she galloped on horseback. The colorful beads were wrapped around her forehead and coiled on top of her head. The sunlight filtered through the gaps in the dense forest and shone on the colorful beads on her head. The colorful brilliance bloomed and was dazzling. What is more dazzling than this bead is the woman's heroic face and her sunny smile. She galloped on her horse and was in front of her in a moment.
With such dazzling brilliance, if the other party hadn't been a woman, at first glance, Su Li would have almost thought it was Yang Xiao coming!
Behind her was a maid in green clothes who was also dressed as a foreigner. She kept smiling and said: "Princess, this skill must be yours!"
The clear laughter of the woman in red resounded throughout the night, like a spirit swallow. With a "huh" sound, the woman in red reined in the reins. When she raised her head and saw Dongfang Ze, she said "huh" in surprise, and her beautiful big eyes became brighter and brighter.
. Looking him up and down curiously, it seemed that he had never seen such a handsome man before!
The woman's eyes turned and fell on Su Li's face again. Her eyes lit up again, and she was suddenly full of novelty and exploration.
When Sheng Qin saw the maid in green trying to touch Mo Bao, he frowned and said, "My prince shot this! You can't touch it!"
The maid in blue was stunned, and immediately said cross-eyed: "You are talking nonsense! This was obviously shot by my princess! Well, look, my princess's arrow is still on it!" The maid in blue opened the ink leopard, and the milky white There is a white feather arrow stuck in the abdomen, and the four characters "Princess Zhaohua" on the arrow shaft are clearly visible.
Sure enough, it is Yang Xuan, the most famous Princess of Zhaohua in Bian Kingdom! Although he could guess the identity of the other party at a glance, Su Li couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling at this moment. She turned her head and looked at the man beside her, only to see his deep eyes looking at the opposite person, the man on the horse wearing a bright red suit. There was a hint of admiration in his eyes for the dazzling woman in clothes.
Sheng Qin was slightly startled, and immediately turned the prey over again, pointing at a black-feathered arrow on Mo Leopard's neck. The clear words "King Zhenning" on the arrow shaft indicate the ownership of the prey.
The maid in blue immediately stared. It turned out that Dongfang Ze and Princess Yangxuan of Zhaohua had shot the black leopard at the same time. The arrow in the neck was definitely fatal, and the arrow in the abdomen also pierced deeply. It was hard to tell who it was. Shot to death.
"Princess! They want to steal your first prize!" The maid in green stood up angrily and shouted excitedly.
Sheng Qin retorted angrily: "This leopard was originally hunted by my prince all the way from over there. You are robbing someone of your prey, and you want the villain to file a complaint first!"
The masters on both sides had not yet spoken, and the servants almost started to quarrel.
Dongfangze raised his eyebrows lightly and said: "Princess Zhaohua of Bian Kingdom, she has outstanding appearance, heroic appearance, strong martial arts, and is especially good at riding and shooting. It's true!"
The woman in red blinked her eyes. When someone praised her in person, she didn't show the shyness of ordinary women. Instead, she smiled smartly and said: "The famous King Zhenning of the Sheng Kingdom is extremely handsome, extremely intelligent, cold and arrogant... Actually, you are not. He is so cold according to rumors! This is just right! He is cold when he should be cold and gentle when he should be gentle. Such a man is the most attractive! I like him the most!" She smiled happily, as if she had met the most beautiful person given to her by God. Desirable man.
Su Li's heart sank again, but her expression remained calm. She raised her eyes to look at Dongfang Ze, but unexpectedly his eyes swept over her. Su Li smiled secretly, as if to say, you have an admirer again.
.
Dongfangze's lips twitched slightly, but he just smiled, not knowing what he meant.
I heard Yang Xuan say again: "This princess is new here, this black panther, what do you want from King Zhenning?" Her hearty smile and bright eyes made it almost impossible to refuse.
Dongfang Ze said expressionlessly: "Since the princess has spoken respectfully, I should give the princess this face. However, I have promised in front of the queen that I will use this merit to atone for my late arrival. Please forgive me. "
Seeing that he didn't give in, Yang Xuan's smile finally faded, her heroic eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and she said with firm eyes: "This princess also said in front of His Majesty the Emperor Sheng that she would exchange the jackpot for the Emperor Sheng. A rich reward! So I must get this first prize!"
Dongfangze's eyes darkened, his face remained calm, his eyes were like ice knives, and his cold temperament burst out instantly, as if he was trying to freeze the air.
The expression of the maid in green changed, and she retreated to Yang Xuan unconsciously. Yang Xuan's heart was frightened, and the horse under her seat seemed to feel the threat. It raised its head and neighed, and took two steps back.
It turns out that this is his cold arrogance, deep in his bones!
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
They both understand that hunting and jackpot are very important, and it is obvious that neither of them has any intention of giving in at this moment.
At this time, there was the chaotic sound of horse hooves all around, and Shenghuang led Li Fengxian, Zhan Wuji, Liang Shichu and others, following Mo Bao's shocking roar before his death, and found them. After a while, Dongfang Zhuo also appeared behind.
Seeing the huge beast lying motionless on the ground, the emperor was happy, glowed, and said with a smile: "It seems that someone has picked up the jackpot. Who hunted this leopard?"
Before Dongfang Ze could speak, Yang Xuan had already dismounted, saluted the emperor and said with a smile: "Returning to Your Majesty Emperor Sheng, it was Zhaohua... who was hunting with King Zhenning at the same time. Zhaohua was about to ask your majesty, whose credit is this... Woolen cloth?"
Dongfang Ze and Su Li also got off their horses and stepped forward to salute and say hello.
The emperor said "no courtesy" and ordered Xiao Fang, the commander of the Imperial Guard, to come forward and check.
Xiao Fang was about forty years old, tall and dark-skinned. He had followed Emperor Sheng on the battlefield and had commanded the Imperial Guard for ten years. He was deeply trusted by the emperor. After receiving the order, he turned over and dismounted, stepped forward to carefully examine the feather arrows on Mo Bao's body, and was unable to make a decision for a moment.
. He turned around and said, "Your Majesty, King Zhenning sealed his throat with an arrow. The princess's arrow went so deep into her belly that it's impossible to tell who killed the prey."
The emperor pondered for a long time after hearing this, and seemed to be very embarrassed indeed.
Liang Shichu thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, Wei Chen believes that judging from the position of the arrow in the prey, the black-feathered arrow on the neck should be a fatal arrow."
Zhan Wuji immediately said coldly: "Liang Taiwei's words are wrong. Although an arrow to the neck is accurate, an arrow to the abdomen can kill the prey as long as it is deep enough!"
The emperor looked at Dongfang Zhuo, then looked at Li Fengxian, who had been silent, and asked, "What do the regents think?"
Originally, Li Fengxian didn't want to come to today's hunt. However, he was responsible for the security of the paddock during the hunt every year. Not long ago, most of his military power had been reduced. If he refused to come now, he would probably make the emperor suspicious.
Seeing the emperor asking questions by name, Li Fengxian frowned and said: "Since two people were shot at the same time, both arrows can kill. No matter who takes the lead, it is unfair."
The emperor's eyes flashed slightly, "Then according to the regent's wishes, what is fair?"
Li Fengxian's heart sank slightly. In recent years, the emperor had rarely asked him for his opinion like this. Today seemed a little unusual, but he couldn't tell what was unusual. Although the first achievement is important, if the emperor wants to reward it, it is not impossible for both of them to reward it. Nowadays, it is obviously difficult to decide the winner, but we insist on arguing about the first merit. Obviously it is not that simple.
Su Li saw Li Fengxian frowning and didn't answer for a long time. Then his mind changed and he smiled respectfully and said, "Your Majesty, Ming Xi has something to say, I don't know whether to say it or not."
The emperor turned to look at her and said calmly: "Speak."
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Mingxi feels that what the three adults said is reasonable. Archery originally emphasizes speed, ruthlessness, accuracy, and strong penetration. Mr. Liang determines victory or defeat based on the location of the arrow. War generals have led troops in battles for many years. , it is not unreasonable to only focus on results and not on techniques and processes. And the fairness proposed by the Regent shows the majesty of our Dasheng Dynasty!"
Li Fengxian was stunned and looked at her blankly. His memory was suddenly pulled back to a long time ago. At that time, he taught Li Su how to archery step by step. What he said was this sentence, "Archery emphasizes speed, ruthlessness and accuracy. With strong penetrating power, Susu will treat that target as the person you hate the most, aim at it, and shoot out with all your strength!"
"Father, Su Su has no one she hates, so what should I do..."
If his Susu was still alive, there must be someone she hated very much now, right? Thinking of his beloved daughter in the past, Li Fengxian's heart unconsciously filled with sadness.
.
Feeling the sad gaze cast by her father, Su Li quickly lowered her eyes and heard the emperor ask: "What good idea does Ming Xi have?"
Su Li said: "Back to Your Majesty, Ming Xi thinks that the prince and Princess Zhaohua can compete again! Whoever wins will get the credit."
There is no partiality, and the winner can be determined.
The emperor nodded and said: "Okay! Princess Zhaohua, do you have any objections?"
Yangxuan looked at Dongfangze, the admiration and interest in her eyes were bold and direct, and she already had an eagerness to try. She smiled heartily and said, "Zhaohua can only dream of competing with King Zhenning in archery!"
Dongfangze frowned slightly and glanced at Su Li. His expression was calm, as if he didn't care at all. Dongfangze couldn't help but frown, and he suddenly felt unhappy in his heart.
Just as he was about to respond, Zhan Wuji suddenly said: "Your Majesty, I think Princess Mingxi's proposal is good, but it is still not fair!"
Su Li's face darkened, was Zhan Wuji trying to make a point? He raised his eyes and asked: "Mingxi would like to hear General Zhan's greetings!"
Zhan Wuji raised his voice and said: "The princess is a guest from afar, and we are the hosts! If word spreads, others will say that our Dasheng Dynasty uses the big to bully the small. Besides, if a man competes with a woman in arrows, winning will be disgraceful! It will only be humiliating. The reputation of King Zhenning!”
"What do you think, General Zhan, is so glorious?" Su Li's heart moved. Zhan Wuji, who values the difference between men and women so much, may have another purpose at this moment!
"Of course it's a woman versus a woman!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned. Dongfang Ze's expression was calm, but his eyes looking at Zhan Wuji suddenly became cold and sharp.
Zhan Wuji has always been arrogant and arrogant, especially looking down on women, let alone men who bully women. With his usual style of conduct, it is not surprising to anyone that he would make such a proposal. The only women in the hunting ground, apart from Yang Xuan and her maid, were Su Li and Wan Xin. After all, Wan Xin's identity was a servant, so it was naturally impossible for him to compete with the princess. The only one left was Su Li.
