"It's getting late, Your Highnesses should go hunting first." Shen Lou withdrew his hand, signaling the prince and Feng Zhong to go first. Leisure Pond Autumn Hunting is not an ordinary hunting game, it is a contest between the children of all the aristocratic families, which is much more important than their Shen family brothers and sisters.
The prince nodded, "Qiu Ting is a child at heart, don't argue with her."
"Yes." Shen Lou bowed his head in response.
Lin Xin winked at Feng Zhong, signaling him to go quickly, and the stupid bird flew first.
Zhong Wumo chased for a long distance before catching up with Shen Yingying who was running wildly all the way.
"What are you running here for?" Shen Yingying covered her eyes and cried, peeking behind Zhong Wumo through her fingers, there was no one there, his brother didn't have the slightest intention of coming to coax her, and suddenly cried even more sadly .
"Brother, let me come." Zhong Wumo said truthfully.
Shen Yingying let go of her hand and glared at him, "Come when your brother asks you to come, don't you fight back when your brother slaps you?"
Zhong Wumo, who was scolded innocently, was silent, listening to Shen Yingying's muttering. "It's not that he doesn't know my archery skills, he's never told me about it before, huh..."
Zhong Wumo was not good at words, and after a long silence, he choked out a sentence, "It was you who were wrong."
"You still say!" Shen Yingying became furious, and pushed Zhong Wumo hard, pushing him a foot away, breaking an imperial flag planted on the ground.
"Who?" With a low shout, the overwhelming sword light swept over.
Zhong Wumo slapped the ground with one hand, turned over on the spot, and pulled Shen Yingying back quickly.
"Bold, who dares to draw a sword!" Shen Yingying stretched out her hand to touch the sang arc bow on her back, and found nothing. When she went out to hunt, in order to get more prey, she didn't bring a spirit sword, but only a big bow. Now throwing the bow, it can be said that he is unarmed.
The sword bearer was dressed in the attire of a royal guard, and he didn't stop when Shen Yingying said, "Whoever trespasses in the imperial tent will be shot and killed!"
The sharp sword light was about to poke Shen Yingying's eyes, so she had no choice but to pull out an imperial flag and use her spiritual power to resist the blow.
"Ka!" The bamboo flagpole couldn't bear the spirit sword's sword energy at all, and only slightly blocked the offensive. Zhong Wumo drew his sword and swept it from the ground. The two fought together, and they both used Lu Li. The sword, light and sword were deadly moves, and Zhong Wumo was obviously at a disadvantage.
"What kind of bad move are you doing!" Shen Yingying said anxiously, seeing that the guard's sword was about to stab Zhong Wumo's chest, she had to shout, "Brother! Help!"
"Om—" The sword light of Yu Yuan's sunset sword, like a rainbow in the nine heavens, steadily opened the two swords from bottom to top. Shen Lou returned the sword and threw the sang arc bow on his back to his sister.
Lin Xin's small sword was not easy to fly, so he ran all the way, seeing the royal guard holding the sword, his eyes dimmed. He is an old acquaintance, the future commander of the Jinwu Guard—Zhou Kang.
"This is the imperial tent, you wait to retreat." Zhou Kang held his sword in front of him, he didn't make any more moves because he was afraid of Shen Lou, but his killing intent was still strong.
Several sons of aristocratic families who were hunting nearby ran over to watch the commotion when they heard the sound, and among them was Luo Zhan, the second son of Hou Wangting who liked to talk: "Yo, Zhou Kang, it's amazing to win the champion of martial arts. How dare you dare to fight against the son of Xuan Guogong?" Out of the sword?"
"Who is he?"
"Son of a thousand households, the champion of the new division this autumn." Luo Zhan sneered, as the son of a lieutenant, those thousands and ten thousand households were all servants in his eyes. The more my father praised Zhou Kang, the more he looked down on him.
Lin Xin glanced sideways at Luo Zhan, even if he didn't touch this man's palm, sooner or later he would have to be chopped off by someone else, he really owed a lesson.
"What's going on?" Emperor Feng Zhuoyi came out of the tent and asked when he saw a group of young people gathered outside. Knowing that it was the Shen brothers and sisters who had quarreled and entered this place by mistake, Emperor Yuan Shuo laughed, "I'm going to go hunting when I have a big problem, and if I don't get a good ranking, let's see how I deal with you."
Not caring about the fact that everyone broke into the restricted area of the imperial tent at will, the children of the aristocratic family laughed and dispersed, and Zhou Kang stood in the ranks of the guard again, like a statue.
"Sister She has nothing to say, and disturbed the Holy Majesty." Shen Lou did not leave, and pulled Shen Yingying to apologize to the emperor.
"You kid, you are always so polite." Feng Zhuoyi said so, but his face was very satisfied, he waved his hand to signal them to go hunting quickly, and turned to wave to Lin Xin.
Shen Lou glanced at Lin Xin, then pulled his sister and Zhong Wumo away.
"Xuan Guogong's son is a role model for the family. If you have a good relationship with him, you can ask him if you don't know anything." The emperor said meaningfully while looking at Shen Lou's back, which was as vigorous as a bamboo.
Lin Xin lowered his eyes, "I haven't gotten along with Shen Shizi for more than a month, so they can't be regarded as good friends."
Feng Zhuoyi was slightly taken aback, he didn't expect Lin Xin to have such an attitude, "Then you must have a playmate."
"I have six princes." Lin Xin raised his head and said frankly. He and Feng Zhong grew up together, and Zhu Xingli was still in the world, so it's impossible for brothers to turn against each other.
The emperor looked at Lin Xin thoughtfully, then turned and walked towards the hunting platform. Lin Xin kept up with him every step of the way. He was Lord Marquis, and he didn't belong to the family's children, so he didn't need to end up hunting.
From dawn to dusk, the mountains and forests were filled with laughter and laughter of young people, and when the sun went down, everyone returned with a full load.
Hunting in the idle pool, the first day is compared with prey, and the second day is compared with swordsmanship.
All the prey were stacked together according to their respective name tags, and the Jinwu Guard stepped forward to count them.
"Who do you think will win?" the emperor asked, pointing to the mule cart full of prey.
"Shizi Shen is the first, the sixth prince is the second, and the crown prince is the third." Lin Xin said without looking.
"Huh?" Feng Zhuoyi found it interesting, "Can the sixth child win the prince?"
"I can win," Lin Xin nodded, and looked at Feng Zhong in the crowd, "He has the talent of heaven, but he just doesn't know it."
Sure enough, after the Jinwu Guard counted the prey, Shen Lou was the first, Feng Zhong was the second, and the prince was the third.
"So you still say that your aptitude is not good?" Shen Yingying yelled strangely, just now in the forest, she saw Feng Zhong working so hard, so she asked curiously, but the man said that his aptitude was dull, and he was afraid of embarrassing the master.
Feng Zhong was a little dumbfounded, realizing that he was deceived by Lin Xin.
"Hahaha, my son is a great talent," Feng Zhuoyi was very happy, and ordered to roast the stag hunted by the sixth prince for himself, "It's a good word."
If the prince chooses the character, he can be named king. When the prince heard this, his face tightened.
Although he was very happy, the emperor was not so confused that he took the words in the hunting ground, and said that he would wait for Qiu Lie to return to the palace before making an official announcement. Send Lin Xin to drink and eat meat with the young people, and have a few words with the prince himself.
The bonfire was lit, and everyone sat down behind a few tables around the fire. Shen Lou looked at the seat, and the other aristocratic children surrounded him, filling up the seats around him.
"Shen Da, I heard that you killed ninety-nine barbarians overnight on the battlefield. Is it true?"
"Last year, I said that I wanted to go to the Northern Territory to participate in the war, but my father disagreed. He refused to let me go to the battlefield, and thought I was useless at home. Tell me."
"Ha ha ha ha… "
Shen Lou seems to be naturally likable, even though he is not hot-tempered, there are always many people willing to follow him no matter on the battlefield or in court. When Dayong was in crisis in his previous life, Shen Qingque raised his arms and shouted, and the already torn apart aristocratic families all obeyed the order and let him command the military power of the four domains. Even the emperor had to give in and make him king.
I am different, and will always be a nuisance. Lin Xin sat beside Feng Zhong who was also lonely, and poured a glass of wine to drink.
Shen Lou looked over from the crowd and frowned slightly.
"Xinxin, it's not good," Feng Chong sighed, he didn't understand at the moment, Lin Xin was deliberately trying to make him show off, "I am neither a concubine nor an elder, and I didn't intend to fight for the crown. this is not good."
"Tch," Lin Xin swallowed a mouthful of strong wine, and sneered, "Do you know how those princes in front died?"
Feng Zhong lowered his head and sliced the roasted rabbit meat into thin slices with a knife, "I know." After reading the history books and following his master all over the world, how could he not know the truth.
"If you don't behave well, they can treat you nicely? Keeping a low profile is not suitable for your Feng family." Lin Xin drank another glass, the smell of alcohol stained the corners of his eyes.
"this is for you."
A plate of venison was placed in front of Lin Xin with a bang, and when he looked up, he saw Shen Yingying with an awkward expression, scratching his head and wondering whether he should sit down or not. Turning around and seeing Lin Xin with red eyes, he immediately forgot everything, "You...you are so pretty."
"..." Lin Xin didn't know what to say. Miss Shen, who pulled out the willows upside down, never knew how to write the word "implicit". If Shen Qiuting had been a man, he would have become Dayong's famous playboy long ago.
"My brother said, you are afraid of arrows. Today is my fault, and I will never point arrows at you again." Shen Yingying sat down at the table opposite Lin Xin, poured a glass of wine and clinked glasses with him.
Afraid of arrows? Lin Xin looked at Shen Lou in the crowd, how did this person know that he was afraid of arrows
"Everyone who knows me well knows that I don't move when I draw a bow. But you are afraid of arrows, so you will definitely dodge. If you dodge, you may be accidentally injured." Shen Qiuting thought that Lin Xin didn't understand, so he explained In a word, she is not used to apologizing, but the lines are full of guilt, and she is very sincere.
So that was the case, Lin Xin couldn't help laughing, thinking that Shen Lou regretted beating his younger sister, so he could only explain it this way, saying that he was afraid that the arrow would be accidentally injured. However, thinking back on Shen Lou's reaction today, I still couldn't help being happy, although I felt a little sorry for Sister Shen. He raised his hand to clink glasses with Shen Yingying, smiling away all grievances.
"Well, this venison is roasted well." Feng Zhong, who was full of thoughts, had already eaten it.
"This is not for you to eat!"
Lin Xin watched them fight, smiled and shook his head, poured another glass of wine, and raised it to his mouth, but was suddenly blocked by a big hand with sharp bones.
Shen Lou didn't know when he left the crowd behind, and when he arrived here, he frowned and looked at Lin Xin with a disheveled expression, "Don't drink any more."
"What's none of your business?" Lin Xin waved away Shen Lou's hand, stood up, and left the scene unsteadily.
The emperor sitting on the stage saw this scene, turned his head to the prince and said, "What do you think of Lin Xin?"
"Rebellious and unruly, I don't know the seriousness." The prince frowned, remembering Lin Xin arguing to see the sixth prince in the East Palace.
"When the fierce horse is tamed, it is the unique Chollima." The emperor said with a hint of meaning.
"Hahaha, I'm Lord Hou, I don't hesitate to talk to you." The young masters left behind by Shen Lou laughed.
The moon was in the middle of the sky, Shen Lou returned to his tent after the entertainment, and saw Lin Houye lying sprawled on the bed who did not hesitate to pay attention to him.

Lou Lou: Didn’t you ignore me
Xinxin: Yes, ignore you
Lou Lou: Then what are you doing
Xinxin: sleep with you!
