Seeing that Jingwei was going to take that person down, Cha Hetai hurriedly raised his hand to stop him and said, "What is Master Xiao doing, this is just a scratch from the game, there is no victory yet, how can we stop?"

Xiao Jin had already dismounted from his horse and pressed the man down himself. Hearing this, he immediately showed a sneer, and said to Chagatai: "It's so fun, the fourth prince will come down and do it too?"

"Xiao Jin is rude." Qin Wang sneered immediately, "The fourth prince is an important guest of the country, if there is a good or bad end, can you bear it?"

Xiao Jin was so angry that his lungs hurt, he just wanted to scold the man bloody, but he couldn't say anything because he was in the way, so he could only kick the guard who hurt people a few times, and cursed: "You bastard!"

Chahetai didn't look annoyed at all, he just said: "Although Xiao Wang is not destined for this game, the Lion King can play with you all." He was talking, when he saw Arslen riding his horse back, he said: "Besides, Shizi Yi's father and elder brother all cherished each other with the Lion King back then, and let the Lion King accompany the Shizi to have a good time today, which is counted as Xiao Wang's apology."

What kind of apology is this, I'm afraid it's just an excuse to beat Xin Yi again. Xiao Jin rolled up his sleeves and was about to reason with Chagatai again, Xin Yi patted him on the shoulder. Xin Yi's arm was already red, he just patted the dust off his robe, calmed down the horse, turned over and got on again.

Xiao Jin became anxious immediately, grabbed his horse's bridle and said: "What are you doing, are you really playing with him?"

Seeing that Ars was not far away, Xin Yi shook his head at Xiao Jin to show that it was okay. Seeing his appearance, Xiao Jin really wanted to confront Ars, wanted to stop him, but saw that he didn't smile, his appearance was calm, but he couldn't say anything to dissuade him. Xiao Jin was not only taken aback, Xin Yi pulled the reins and turned the horse's head.

Arslenma came to him, Chagatai said: "The Lion King came to this capital, it would be a pity if he didn't have a match with Prince Yi. But the prince is young, why don't you save the sheep and play with bows and arrows."

"The fourth prince is very considerate, Xin Yi, then you can play with the Lion King." King Qin smiled and said, "Let's not talk about King Yan's riding skills back then, even your brothers were very good. The king opened his eyes."

Arslen only looked at Xin Yi, who had already driven forward. The two horses lined up and drew their bows at the same time. After all, Arslen gave Xin Yi a little bit and didn't use his own bow. I saw him straightening his bow, his eyes were solemn, and he was on the horse, but he already had the attitude of being resolute. Just in terms of momentum, it is not comparable to Xin Yi's fledgling. In addition, the people of Dayuan ride in the grassland all the year round. As long as they mount a horse, all the people are soldiers. Men like Arslen who go to the battlefield like to use hard bows. Ji Baiyue can be called the Broken Wind Arrow, which is closely related to the huge tendon recurve bow he holds, which is different from that used by ordinary people.

Arslen opened the bow first, and the arrow flew off the string and hit the bull's-eye. The target wobbled with a bang, and the force was frightening. But then Xin Yi's arrow also left the string, grazing the wind, chasing after Arslen's arrow, unexpectedly crashing into the tail of the arrow!

The body of the arrow split, but it failed to pass through the arrow completely, and it was a move lost!

Arslen was the first to laugh, threw the bow in his hand back to the person beside him, and said to Xin Yi: "Although not as good as Ji Baiyue, he is still a good player." At last he shook his head and said, "It's a pity you stayed in the capital."

Xin Yi smiled reservedly, turned his hand and shot another arrow. The body that was facing the target suddenly turned around, and the arrow pointed straight at King Qin.

Qin Wang saw that his eyes were cold, and he actually had a bit of murderous intent, not only immediately reprimanded him: "Xin Yi, what are you—"

The arrow flew out suddenly!

The guards on one side didn't expect him to actually shoot out, and there was no rush to stop him. Qin Wang stared at the arrow like a white paper on the horse and blinked before his eyes. His cry was still in his throat, and the arrow's edge Sharply brushed off his sideburns and nailed them to a tree trunk not far behind him.

Xiao Jin stood on one side and applauded secretly, he almost raised his hand to applaud. Immediately said anxiously on the face: "The son's accuracy is not very good."

Xin Yi retracted his bow, and watched Qin Wang tremblingly being helped off the horse with cold eyes, his lips were tight and stubborn, which was completely different from his usual smiling face.

Chagatai seemed to still want to stir up the troubled waters, but Ars stood aside and didn't intend to help, so he just quit as soon as he saw it, and didn't say anything.

King Qin's calves were trembling after being helped off the horse, but he didn't want to show his cowardice here, so he forced himself to point at Xin Yi, twisted and turned the words in his mouth, but still swallowed them forcefully. Hu Yong, who had been shrinking to the side as if he was not around, finally had a place to play. He hurriedly supported King Qin, and said: "His Royal Highness, calm down, Your Highness, calm down, the son of the world has traveled a lot with the foreign missions these days, It's a hot day today, and dizziness is a common occurrence, a common occurrence. Your Highness will be sent back to the mansion to rest, and your Highness must not catch the heat in this scorching day." After recruiting people, he quickly carried them away, sweating all over his face. Too late to wipe.

It wasn't until Xiao Jin came to flatter the horse that Xin Yi let go of his hand holding the bow, and his palm was wet.

When he returned home, people felt worried, although his arms had been bandaged, but his robes had not been changed, and his disheveled appearance at home inevitably caused people to worry about him.

Xin Yi hesitated at the door before entering. Entering the courtyard, I saw Mr. Qu was looking at a bamboo cage on the porch, and upon closer inspection, it turned out to be several golden pheasants.

"The son just came back just in time." Elder Qu teased the chicken, and wanted to tell him to pick a color and put it by the pool, but when he got close to him and saw that his arm was torn and bloodstained, he was shocked and said: "This is a What's wrong?!"

Xin Yi said quickly: "Get off the racecourse for a little bit, it's not a big deal, it's already healed." Seeing that Elder Qu asked for a doctor, he immediately said: "I've already seen the doctor at the Jingwei Division, and the doctor said it's nothing serious."

"Doctors outside are careless, how can they be as good as those in the mansion?" Qu Lao patted the ashes on his sleeves again, and said: "Your Excellency is still waiting for the son to come back for dinner."

"Your Excellency is not out..." Thinking that today might be the day for Hugh Mu, Bai Jiu stopped talking. Xin Yi touched his arm and murmured: "It's really not a big deal..."

He had heard the sound inside for a long time, but he didn't come in all this time, as if he was impatient to wait, only heard the slight sound of the teacup falling, Xin Yi appeared from the door, Bai Jiu's narrow eyes swept over him Laughed first.

"Stand by the door and wait for the doctor?" Bai Jiu pushed the teacup away and said to him, "Come over and let me have a look."

Xin Yi dawdled in and said, "It's just a scratch, it will be fine in a few days."

Bai Jiu looked at the messy bag of gauze for a while, and said, "Xiao Jin's craftsmanship is really slanted."

Bai Jiu saw that his robe was covered with a lot of dust, so he stripped off his robe and asked someone to change it into a clean one. Xin Yiwei stood awkwardly, and after the person put away his robe and went out, Bai Jiu raised his hand to look at it again. Seeing the scar on the thumb on the thumb, he looked at him with narrow eyes and said, "What are you doing?" You have put in a lot of effort, did you use it all on yourself?"

Xin Yi lowered his eyes and said, "I can't feel angry."

"Kyoto is such a place, whoever makes you angry, you can just fall on his face and it's fine." Bai Jiu's lips were originally pursed a little tight, seeing his pitiful downcast eyes, his words stagnated slightly, and his expression was also Just relax a little bit. He raised his hand and rubbed his heart, and said in a low voice, "How many times have I told someone to support me, why should I carry it hard?" Xin Yi was sour and sweet, unable to figure out what was going on in his heart, so he raised his hand and hugged him. Bai Jiu was surrounded by others, and said sadly: "You have failed your studies."

It hurts so much.

The doctor came quickly, and it took a lot of effort for Xin Yi to remove the knotted gauze, added new medicine, and wrapped the normal one.

At night Xin Yi was about to fall asleep, that hand gently squeezed his fingertips, and asked in his ear: "Do you remember?"

Xin Yi entered Zhou Gongyuan with half his body, and he was shocked when he heard the words, and he still knew what was going on, he closed his eyes and nodded quickly, humming like a chicken pecking at rice.

Bai Jiu seemed to let out a low snort, wrapped his five fingers in his palm, and let him sleep comfortably on his pillow.

On the second day, the king of Qin delivered a letter to the palace, saying that he had to take care of him for a few days due to the cold. It was just about to turn cold this day, and people who had been hot for the past few days were dizzy, so why did they catch the cold. The emperor naturally wanted to inquire, but King Qin didn't say anything, but there were rumors that Prince Yi had a dispute with the foreign mission yesterday at the racecourse, which hurt King Qin. Only the king of Qin dared Xin Yi to call the emperor's uncle, and wanted to expose this matter.

The emperor's attitude towards Xin Yi is worth pondering, and King Qin is his son who has been with him all year round. In addition, Xin Wen disappeared a few days ago, so he felt a little indebted to King Qin in his heart, so he turned around and asked Kang Fu to go there in person. Qin Wangfu asked what was going on. Kang Fu turned around and came back and said that he didn't look like he had caught a cold, his shoulder was injured by a sharp object for some reason, King Qin was already bedridden and couldn't get up.

"Injured by a sharp weapon?" The emperor was about to get up and go out as soon as he fell, and frowned halfway: "He is a prince, who dares to hurt him?!"

Kang Fu hurried to the back and bowed his waist and said: "This servant can't figure it out either. Your Highness is kind and happy. This son... why did he suffer this crime again."

As soon as he mentioned Xin Wen, the emperor thought of Xin Yi, the frown deepened, and he said, "I'm going to see him."

When the emperor arrived at Qin Wang's mansion, Qin Wang was waiting outside with the help of others. Seeing that his face was pale, the emperor immediately asked someone to help him in quickly, without even paying any respects. As soon as he entered the house, he asked King Qin why he was hurt.

Qin Wang leaned on the pillow and shook his head to the emperor, he said: "My son was accidentally injured yesterday, it's nothing serious."

The emperor saw him move and lie down like this, his shoulders were red, his brows were wrinkled, and his tone became harder, and he said: "Kang Fu, send someone to call Hongyuan envoy." Kang Fu bowed and retreated, and the emperor said: "How could this injury be an accidental injury? You actually told me that you caught a cold!"

Qin Wang let out a long sigh, closed his eyes and said, "Father doesn't know...Father hasn't been to Erchen's mansion for a long time."

"I see you every day." Seeing that his eyebrows were really sick, the emperor paused and said, "It's true that he rarely comes again."

"Changshang is the monarch and ministers." Qin Wang said slowly: "Since Wen'er is gone, the sons and ministers often dream back when they are still in the palace. At that time, apart from the elder brother Huan, the crown prince and the king of Yan, there are six of us brothers, Riding and shooting on horseback, everything is taught by my father." His voice added a bit of vicissitudes, and he said: "That would be great... I still want to stay with my father for a few years."

The emperor was silent for a while, and said: "Whoever wants you to be unable to accompany me, I will cut his tongue."

The King of Qin said: "My son and minister are useless."

"What nonsense?" The emperor saw that he had not only experienced a lot of vicissitudes, but also was as disheartened as death, and said: "You have been in Beijing for more than ten years, and you have always kept your own place. Who else in this court is more sincere than his own son."

Qin Wang was quiet, his eyes were already red when he raised his eyes, and said: "King Huan left early, King Cheng was defeated, King Yan was wrong, and King Ping conspired to make trouble. Now the king of Tang has lived in Jiangtang for a long time and returned to Qian's mansion, and the prince often accompanied the empress dowager." , only the most unscrupulous son-in-law is left in Beijing. Brothers gather less and leave more. , if the minister is not here, you need to keep the prince in Beijing. Power is divided in the court, and no one else can trust anyone else. There is only the prince, only the prince." He struggled to get up, propped himself on the edge of the bed and said sadly: "The minister is here On the other hand, my son is afraid that he will die in peace no matter what!"

"Nonsense!" The emperor suddenly raised his voice, got up and pressed him down, and scolded: "You are full of nonsense! You are in your prime, and you have a lot of good times. How can you not feel uncomfortable when you mention these heartbreaking words?"

"My son knows his body." King Qin held back his tears, "This is what happened to Wen'er, but my son, my son is a father after all, so I feel uncomfortable, uncomfortable."

The emperor's complexion was abnormally red, and his hands were trembling a little, he still said to himself: "Why don't I know." He slowed down, and said in a deep voice: "Both King Yan and King Ping are dead, why don't I know!"

The King of Qin held the emperor's hand tightly, choked with sobs and said, "Royal father, let the third brother come back. I'm already tired of this court, and I can't continue my energy."

The emperor pressed his choked body and said: "Come back, I will call the prince back immediately."

Outside, the envoy of Hong Yuan had arrived, and the emperor sent someone to come in immediately, and looked at the king of Qin again, he was in a bad state, choked up until he fainted. The emperor was shocked and raised his voice: "Hong Xianglian! Tell Hong Xianglian to come in quickly!"

Hong Yuan envoy trotted in, and Kang Fu followed behind. Seeing that the emperor was also shaking badly, he went to help him up with a cry of ouch, and said back along: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty, please speak slowly! Hong Yuan envoy is here, already coming!"

The emperor held his hand, and said with a ferocious expression: "Go and send a message, tell the prince to return to Beijing, tell the prince to return to Beijing!"

As soon as the quick horse left Beijing, Bai Jiu in the study got the letter. He watched the trees by the pool turning yellow and dotted with stars from the window, and drank the tea in one gulp. With the bitter tea in his mouth, there was a cold smile on the corner of his lips.

King Qin's move was well done.

The prince is going to deal with him himself.
