Sir, don't shoot! [Quick Transmigration]

Chapter 84 My Commander Is a Scheming Young Emperor 4

The place where the princes and nobles rode and shot was in the Weichang Bieyuan on the outskirts of the capital.

It was late spring, the wind was blowing, and the vegetation was thriving.Invited by Emperor Yanxi to participate in the hunt, besides Zhou Lancang, there were more than a dozen other young generals including Wang Sun, plus guards and retinues, a total of more than a hundred people rode their horses into the royal enclosure.

Emperor Yanxi's edict to the participants probably said that the weather has gotten warmer recently, he has lived in the deep palace for a long time, and he wants to find a free time to go hunting, loosen his muscles and bones, and invite everyone to have fun together.

The decree was written in a relaxed and casual style, and it also said that if you don't want to come, you don't have to force yourself.But since the emperor opened the golden mouth, it is an imperial edict. Unless he really wants to fight against the emperor, who would dare to disobey?

Except for Prime Minister Zuo's two sons who said they were ill and did not attend the invitation, all the people named by Li Yuanyin were present at this time.

All the eunuchs changed out of their Confucian shirts, all wearing light fur with narrow sleeves and leather belts around their waists, looking extraordinarily energetic.

The most outstanding among them are Zhou Lancang and Wang Xuanyan, the eldest son of the Minister of War.

Li Yuanyin put down the airs of the Tian family, and laughed and chatted with everyone, and among them, he was the most intimate with Wang Xuanyan.On the contrary, Zhou Lancang, apart from the routine salutation, Li Yuanyin hardly even looked at him.

At the hunting signal, the guards split up and drove the prey out of the forest from different directions.

Li Yuanyin clamped the horse's belly and took the lead.Wang Xuanyan, who was by his side originally, followed closely behind, and the rest of the princes and nobles also followed one after another.

Only Zhou Lancang, who was neglected by his sweetheart, was depressed and fell last.

When he entered the palace when he was young, he accompanied Li Yuanyin day and night, and they were as close as ever.Later, when Li Yuanyin boarded the Dabao, his words and actions were much more restrained, but he still showed his favor for Zhou Lancang everywhere. How could he have been treated so coldly?

Han Mo: "The officer called me here, but he didn't even say a word to me. What's the idea?" '

S999: "Even if Xie Yu wants to complete the task as soon as possible, he must follow the role setting.He doesn't talk to you, of course he has his reasons.There are a lot of people here, maybe it is to put on airs in front of other people. '

Han Mo thought for a while, and felt that it made sense. Li Yuanyin is the son of heaven, and if he has any unexplainable relationship with the courtiers, it's really not very pleasant.

What's more, his real power is not stable, and he is too close to him, so he will become a target for political opponents.

It's okay to be left out for a while, the situation is deep, and you need to be careful every step of the way. Just like the system said, this may just be a temporary appearance.

Han Mo calmed down, and after thinking about it for a while, his thoughts became much clearer.

The current forces in the court can be roughly divided into the faction of the Queen Mother, the Zuo Cheng, and the faction loyal to the new emperor. Zhou Lancang's father, Zhou Bingde, belongs to the latter.There are also some people who are friendly with each other and have ambiguous positions. The Minister of the Ministry of War is one of them.

Li Yuanyin deliberately showed warmth to Wang Xuanyan, either to test, or to win over, or both.

After clarifying in this way, Han Mo immediately felt relieved. Li Yuanyin was busy beating Wang Xuanyan and had no time to take care of him.

Just when he made up his mind, the system suddenly sent a sum of money out of the sky.

S999: 'Warning, the OOC level is about to exceed the tolerance range. '

If it weren't for the current very slow riding speed, Han Mo might fall off the horse.

How did you do it, did you break the law without making trouble?You have to poke something out to fit the character's personality, the original owner wouldn't have the temper to do that! ?

S999 explained: "Zhou Lancang is calm in military affairs, but when he meets Li Yuanyin, he is a love brain."After seeing each other for a few months, Li Yuanyin was just offering rewards routinely. Even if he praised him, what he said was a cliché in front of the public.What Zhou Lancang really wanted to hear was the other party's own words, but now he not only couldn't wait for Li Yuanyin to hear it in private, but also received cold eyes during the hunting, and it was impossible to calm down anyway. '

Han Mo was stunned for a moment, feeling that Zhou Lancang was waiting for Li Yuanyin to coax him, otherwise there would be trouble.

But what should we do?If one impulsively molested the emperor in public, it would be a disorderly conduct at a light level, but at a serious level it would be a serious crime of humiliating the state.

The system gave him another move.

S999: "It's very simple, just follow how young people behave in front of the girl they like. '

Han Mo was staring blankly, when suddenly there was a burst of applause in front of him.It turned out that Wang Xuanyan shot down a roe deer.

After all, it was hunting, so it was not uncommon to hit the prey. What was rare was that Wang Xuanyan used a strong bow with one stone and two horns, to pierce the prey's forehead with one arrow and nail it to the ground.The roe deer didn't have time to make a sound, so it remained motionless.

"As expected of a descendant of a general, the tiger father has no dogs." Li Yuanyin clapped his palms and smiled.

S999: "Look, Zhou Lancang was overwhelmed in front of Li Yuanyin, it would be too unreasonable for him to keep silent." '

Han Mo finally understood that the system wanted him to take the lead in front of Li Yuanyin, so as to attract the other party's attention.

This provocative method is really not technical at all, but Zhou Lancang is such an upright young man, no matter how much Han Mo complains secretly, he still has to follow the script.

He patted his horse forward, caught up with the hunting team head-on, overtook the others, and walked side by side with Li Yuanyin and Wang Xuanyan.

Li Yuanyin glanced at him and didn't say much.Wang Xuanyan was slightly surprised and frowned disapprovingly.

Zhou Lancang ignored him, and bent his bow and set his arrows.

At that time, the prey in the forest were driven out by the guards and ran in front of everyone.Zhou Lancang fired three arrows in one breath, the arrows were connected head to tail, and hit three hares in an instant.

The few people who were near saw this scene and applauded one after another.

Li Yuanyin pursed his lips, but still didn't say a word.Wang Xuanyan's face darkened, obviously feeling competitive.

He once again drew his strong bow fully, and once the arrow was released, he shot a lynx straight in the head, followed by the other arrow, which penetrated so hard and accurately that it split the first arrow into pieces. in two halves.

This time, even the guards watching couldn't stop applauding, and Li Yuanyin smiled approvingly.

Wang Xuanyan gave Zhou Lancang a sidelong glance, the meaning of showing off his power is self-evident.

Zhou Lancang scratched his head, unable to think of any other tricks to seize the limelight.

At this moment, the guards in the forest made a noise, accompanied by low-pitched roars, like thunder.

A white-fronted tiger suddenly sprang out from the forest and stopped in front of everyone.It opened its bloody mouth wide, and there was another roar, the sound was so shocking that it rumbled in everyone's ears.

Several timid horses were frightened, neighing uncontrollably, jumping up and down.Wang Sun on the horse frantically comforted the horse, and his attendants also hurried forward to hold the reins, lest the horse lose control and hurt his master.The scene was once very chaotic.

When most people retreated in a hurry, Zhou Lancang took the lead, holding four arrows with his five fingers at the same time, and fired them all at once.The powerful arrow pierced the air with a sound, and hit the tiger almost at the same time. Without exception, the arrows all penetrated the body, leaving only the white tail feathers tremblingly exposed outside the colorful fur.

The tiger was hit hard by this, and its power did not weaken. Instead, it was completely enraged, and it jumped up violently, rushing towards Zhou Lancang.

Not to be outdone, Wang Xuanyan also shot a few arrows in succession, and the arrows never missed.

But the tiger's attention had been completely attracted by Zhou Lancang, and he didn't change his direction at all because of Wang Xuanyan's intervention.Facing the menacing tiger, Zhou Lancang's color remained unchanged, and he pulled the bowstring into the shape of a full moon, and another powerful arrow roared straight out.This arrow hit the tiger's neck, slightly blocking its momentum.The white-fronted tiger faltered, and then roared at Zhou Lancang again, with sharp fangs.

Seeing that the tiger was approaching, Zhou Lancang turned his horse's head to avoid its edge, and bent his bow to shoot the second arrow.One person and one tiger formed a confrontational situation around the circle.

But before Zhou Lancang shot the feather arrow, his first mount suddenly seemed to be frightened by something, neighing mournfully, and raised its front hooves high, almost throwing Zhou Lancang off the horse.

He hugged the horse's neck tightly, and the mount jumped on the spot, as if in pain, no matter how comforted it was, it couldn't stop.

However, the tiger's attack was not blocked because of this. A colorful figure flashed in front of him, and the tiger's claws were about to greet Zhou Lancang in an instant.

In desperation, Zhou Lancang rolled off the saddle and fell off the horse, narrowly avoiding the tiger's claws.

The sharp claws that were as sharp as blades left shocking bloodstains on the horse's belly, and the horse hissed in pain and jumped endlessly.

Zhou Lancang threw his bow and arrow when he got off his horse. At this time, he was unarmed, except for a close-fitting short dagger, which was almost the same as fighting a tiger with bare hands.

Seeing that the situation was critical, all the guards wanted to come forward to rescue them, but they were cautious, fearing that they might accidentally injure Zhou Lancang with their bows and arrows.

However, Li Yuanyin seemed to completely ignore the existence of the guards around him.

From the moment the white-fronted tiger attacked Zhou Lancang, his gaze was locked on Zhou Lancang without moving an inch.

After Zhou Lancang got off the horse, Li Yuanyin immediately urged the horse forward and stretched out his hand to Zhou Lancang.

As soon as Zhou Lancang saw Li Yuanyin, he immediately understood, grabbed his arm and leapt, got on the horse's back, and sat behind Li Yuanyin.

"Your Majesty, forgive me for being rude, please borrow the sword."

Zhou Lancang said in a low voice, pulled out the sword from Li Yuanyin's waist, and pierced through the heart of the flying tiger.

The place where the long sword pierced was like a begonia in full bloom, and the light-colored fur was stained red with blood.The tiger still didn't give up, it struggled and roared several times, but it was just a desperate fight, after a while, its voice gradually weakened, it twitched and remained motionless.

The whole process was completed in a blink of an eye, and before everyone could react, they saw the tiger slumped to the ground.

Zhou Lancang took out a towel, wiped off the blood on the long sword, and returned it to Li Yuanyin. He got off the horse and knelt down on one knee, bowing his head and saying: "I am not good at martial arts. I let the beast alarm the holy driver. Please forgive me."

Seeing him kneeling down to plead guilty, all the guards who were responsible for escorting him immediately knelt down with Hu Lala and said in unison: "Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

"Get up. I said that Spring Hunting is just for everyone's enjoyment, so I can't blame you for anything." Li Yuanyin waved his hands, his tone sounded a little absent-minded.

A few feet away, the horse that Zhou Lancang was riding on was wounded and neighed in mourning.

Looking closer, the wound on the horse's belly had penetrated deep into the internal organs, and there was no medical treatment.Zhou Lancang couldn't bear to see the horse struggle in pain, so he had to be ruthless, took out the dagger in his sleeve, and cut the horse's throat with one knife.

When he put the dagger back into his sleeve, his fingertips touched a thin piece of paper.

Pull it out and see that it is Zhang Jinsu Huajian, which can be recognized at a glance as something made by Ouchi.

Zhou Lancang intuited that the source of this palace note should be Li Yuanyin, maybe it was just stuffed into his sleeve when he was pulling him on the horse.

What matters did Li Yuanyin have to convey through paper, and he could not send someone to deliver a letter, nor could he summon him privately?

He was puzzled in his heart, and turned around to find clues from Li Yuanyin's expression, not wanting that the other party was also looking at him without squinting.

Li Yuanyin raised his chin lightly, as if signaling him to look at the dead body of the horse.

Even if Zhou Lancang's mount is not a BMW that travels thousands of miles a day, it is also docile and has strong hooves, making it a rare horse.I didn't have time to think about it when I was fighting with the tiger before, but now that Li Yuanyin mentioned something, Zhou Lancang noticed that his mount suddenly became abnormal, maybe something strange?

As soon as the timid horse heard the roar of the tiger, it immediately lost control. Since his mount was not alarmed by the roar of the tiger, there was absolutely no reason for it to suddenly go crazy halfway.

He carefully inspected the horse corpse, from the knife marks on the throat to the wounds on the abdomen, and finally found several barbed caltrops on the front feet, which had penetrated deeply into the horse's hooves.

Zhou Lancang was startled.

This barbed caltrop is a trap commonly used by the two armies when they are fighting, and it is also a weapon commonly used by people in the martial arts.His mount must have stepped on a barbed wire, and he ran blindly and uncontrollably under the pain.

But this is the royal enclosure, how could there be a hidden weapon of caltrops for no reason?

The only explanation is that someone secretly wanted to kill him, hoping that he would die in the mouth of a tiger or be wounded by a fierce horse.

He looked up and saw hundreds of faces around him, including young nobles talking about their adventures, and guards hurriedly picking up the corpses of their prey.Every face is blurred and untrustworthy.

Only Li Yuanyin, who was watching him all the time, showed genuine concern that was concealed in layers.
