Early the next morning, winter hunting began.

Under the escort of the imperial guards, Emperor Xia's Luanjia went out of the city to the royal hunting ground. The Northwest Camp cooperated with the Patrol Battalion to search the royal hunting ground to prevent any criminals from hiding.

When they came to the high platform set up in the hunting ground, Emperor Xia got off the Luanjia and walked up to the high platform.At this time, there are civil and military ministers watching on both sides of the stage, and in the middle are people riding horses preparing for winter hunting. In the front are several princes including Xiao Rui, all dressed in strong clothes, with swords around their waists, and holding swords in their hands. Bow and arrow, ready to go.

Behind the prince are the sons of civil and military ministers. As long as they are proficient in riding and shooting, they will all come to participate, so there are hundreds of children.

Emperor Xia glanced at the young men riding horses under the stage. They were all young talents. He smiled sincerely: "The fierce cold wind blows, and the clouds float miserably. The frost is thick and thick, and the ice is thick and clear! Today is a beautiful day. Winter hunting is a good season! I also hope to use this winter hunting event to show my power to the world and tell other countries and Xiaoxiao that the Great Xia Kingdom was born in the flames of war and grew up in the ups and downs. The pride of the officials is what makes the Great Xia prosperous today! I can boldly and confidently say to any enemy, whoever dares to violate my Great Xia will be punished even if it is far away! My sons and daughters, do you have the courage? murderous look?"

"Kill!" The prince in the audience raised his strong bow and raised his arms and shouted, his voice soaring into the sky, and the powerful heirs behind him responded immediately, shouting in unison with all their strength.

"kill!"

"kill!"

……

Immediately afterwards, the imperial guards guarding all around were also infected, raising their weapons high and roaring.

Today's Great Xia is not afraid of any enemies!

Emperor Xia nodded hopefully, and then Huo Xingye, Minister of the Ministry of War, ordered the soldiers to beat the drums. The sound of the drums changed from slow to fast, and then the winter hunting officially began!

All the sons who participated in the winter hunting drove into the hunting ground one after another, and soon disappeared.

The hunting ground is very large and has various terrains. There are forests, hills and slopes, as well as rivers and ravines. Hundreds of people are scattered in it, and naturally no one is seen.

Xiao Rui only had Dian Wei with him, and Yang Youji disguised himself as a son of a family, hid in the dark, and did not follow Xiao Rui.

After walking two or three miles, Xiao Rui saw Xiao Yiheng stop at the bottom of the hillside with two guards.

Xiao Rui patted his horse forward and said with a smile: "I kept my second brother waiting for a long time."

Xiao Yiheng nodded and said, "I've just arrived too! I'm afraid that my seventh brother may go in the wrong direction."

Xiao Rui said: "Second brother has pointed out the direction, how can younger brother come by mistake? Now second brother can say how to deal with the eighth brother, and the younger brother is very curious, how to deal with the eighth brother in this hunting ground?"

Xiao Yiheng snorted and said, "King Jing ruined my reputation and wished to become the crown prince and enter the Datong. It's really wishful thinking! Hunting in this hunting ground, it's easy to hide with a sharp spear and hard to defend against a hidden arrow, so..."

Xiao Rui showed shock, and asked: "Second brother wants to sneak attack eighth brother? No! Absolutely not! If Father knows, shooting and killing a brother is a serious crime!"

Xiao Yiheng shook his head and said: "Seventh brother knows this truth, so I naturally understand. How could I shoot and kill my compatriots? Although I hate eighth brother, but after all, I am an elder brother, and I just want to teach him a lesson!"

Xiao Rui quickly pretended to breathe a sigh of relief, but in his heart he dismissed it.You sent someone to kill Xiao Lie, and you didn't care about your brotherhood at all, so what you say now is really nice!

Let's see how he pretends to deal with himself in the end!

"What is the second brother's intention? Although I want to know who harmed my mother and concubine, it is absolutely impossible for me to harm someone!" Xiao Rui said righteously.

The corner of Xiao Yiheng's mouth twitched, he wished he could stab Xiao Rui to death with a sword, he spoke really straight, but he acted extremely viciously!The person I hate the most is you!

"Don't worry, seventh brother!" Xiao Yiheng held back the anger in his heart, and could only continue to act according to the plan.

Xiao Rui nodded and asked, "What is the second brother going to do?"

Xiao Yiheng pointed to a strong man beside him, and said: "This man is an archery expert trained by me. Although he is not as good as Commander Yan who is beside my father, he is not much inferior! I have already bought the guards around King Jing, and he will give it to him. I left a signal to tell us where King Jing is. We followed secretly, and then shot the eighth brother with an arrow in the leg at the right time!"

With that said, Xiao Jing took out an arrow from the sleeve and handed it to Xiao Rui.

Xiao Rui took the arrow and found that it was an arrow feather without any information.Members who participated in the winter hunting, their arrow feathers are marked with each family, which is easy to identify.

Xiao Rui returned the arrow feathers to Xiao Yiheng, and Xiao Yiheng said again: "In addition, I smeared a slight poison on the arrow cluster, as long as it hits the eighth brother's leg, hehe, although it is not fatal, it will corrode the meridian and hurt the body." There is a defect in the hind legs. Do you think the father will choose a man with a walking problem to be the prince?"

This trick is really vicious!

"Second brother just believes that I will help you? Although this is not killing compatriots, the behavior is also extremely bad!" Xiao Rui asked.

Xiao Yiheng said with a smile: "I have never thought that the seventh brother is a kind-hearted person. If it were true, he would not have such a status and realm. We both have our own needs, why bother to pretend?"

"All the dignitaries in the capital know that I have a grudge against you. It was you who caused my grandfather to go to prison, so you can testify for me and prove my innocence. Father will not think that I sent someone to shoot the sniper."

Xiao Rui nodded and said, "Okay!"

In this way, the two began to search for Xiao Jing's traces, and at the same time Xiao Rui was secretly vigilant in his heart, what conspiracy did Xiao Yiheng and Xiao Feng have?

Chapter 405: The Death of King Chu! (Thousands of rewards plus updates, thanks to "Xuanyuan of Flowers")

Emperor Xia moved to the royal hunting ground to watch the winter hunting in person. For the sake of safety, the patrol battalion cooperated with the Northwest Camp to strictly control the situation outside the hunting ground to prevent people from entering and colliding with the holy driver, or even assassinating people with ulterior motives.

Therefore, correspondingly, the vigilance in the city of Kyoto has been relaxed.

As the winter hunting progressed, a caravan of five or sixty people escorted the carriage into the south of the city and passed the main street behind Xianwang Mansion.If it were him, this caravan would probably attract the attention of the patrol battalion, but today no one cares about it.

When the caravan stopped at King Xian's Mansion, the leader raised his hand, everyone stopped, and then drew swords from the cloth bag full of carriages!

Immediately afterwards, without talking nonsense, this group of people jumped over the wall and entered Xianwang's mansion directly!

The imperial guards in King Xian's Mansion discovered the enemy and immediately started to fight back. In an instant, there was chaos in King Xian's Mansion!

Jia Xu and Guo Jia were playing chess when they suddenly heard the sound of fighting. A moment later, Li Yuanfang and Li Kui rushed into the hall.

"Two gentlemen, there are assassins rushing into the palace! The imperial army is resisting, but the people who come are all elite warriors. The imperial army may not be able to hold back, so I ask the two gentlemen to quickly hide in the secret room!" Li Yuanfang said.

Jia Xu paused with his beard-stroking hand, and after looking at Guo Jia, he was quite surprised: "Prince Duan actually sent people to attack Xian Wang's mansion. Could it be that he intends to make a fuss and deliberately attract Dongshou's attention?"

When Prince Xian's mansion was assassinated and the patrol battalion came to suppress it, the news must have spread to the hunting ground.But this process takes time, it's not very clever for Duan Wang to use this trick to make a lot of noise!

Guo Jia thought of another possibility, and said in surprise, "Perhaps we are the ones King Duan wants to kill!"

Jia Xu also realized this possibility!

"Your Highness participated in the Winter Hunting, took Dian Wei and Yang Youji away, Li Xiuer was imprisoned suddenly, and sent away Wu Zhanfa, Lu Xian, and Wei Guang. Now there are fewer masters in the mansion. It seems that King Duan really wants to kill us. !" Jia Xu couldn't help but praised: "Wang Duan's scheme is so deep, we have all been deceived!"

Guo Jia nodded. The two of them only considered Xiao Rui's safety, but they didn't expect that they would be the target of the attack.

In fact, this is very easy to understand, capture the king first when catching a thief, poke the eye first when fighting, Jia Xu and Guo Jia are Xiao Rui's think tanks, they advise Xiao Rui better than thousands of troops, Xiao Feng naturally understands this truth!So I wanted to kill Jia Xu and Guo Jia for a long time.

Seeing that the two gentlemen were still talking, Li Yuanfang hurriedly said: "Two gentlemen, hurry up and enter the secret room. If something happens to you two, His Highness must be extremely anxious!"

Guo Jia was not worried, and said with a smile: "I guess King Duan must have bought people from the patrol battalion, and would send false news to the hunting ground. Once the news of our assassination is sent back to the hunting ground, His Highness will be aware of the fraud, but in order to For our safety, we must personally bring people back to the city! This is King Duan taking advantage of His Highness's benevolence! Yuan Fang, you hurry to the north gate, you can't let His Highness go back to the city!"

Li Yuanfang hurriedly said: "I can't go! Although there are a large number of forbidden troops in the mansion, these assassins are highly skilled in martial arts. I must first ensure the safety of the two gentlemen! Otherwise, His Highness will chop me up!"

"Yuanfang, is the Xianwang Mansion where assassins can come and leave whenever they want? Don't worry about the safety of Fengxiao and me. Have you forgotten that there is a Yang organization?" Jia Xu asked with a smile.

Only then did Li Yuanfang realize that, yes, His Highness asked Zhong Ling and Wu Yazi to prepare their hands and hide in the dark.

"I understand!" Li Yuanfang nodded, and then warned Li Kui to protect Guo Jia and Jia Xu, and he immediately left Xianwang Mansion.
