General

Chapter 13 Attack on the Paddock

Not long after Lanjing returned to the palace, he received a verbal order from the court, apparently to take care of his newlywed Yaner and let him rest for a few more days, but in fact there are only two possibilities.

One is that the regent became furious and deliberately pushed him out of the court.Second, it may be that Lan Xuan wants to let him avoid the edge, and stop conflicting with the regent in a short time, so as not to be caught.

Either way, he's happy to be at his leisure.Lan Jin's lifelong event has been preserved by him, and since the state affairs are like this, I'm afraid it can't get worse.It's rare for Li Xuan to show concern for him now, so it's better to save time and think about how to make him owe his serious business after the wedding night!

……

"My lord..."

The guard's respectful prostration sounded behind him, Lan Jing was interrupted from thinking, turned her head with some displeasure, and followed the prestige.The person who came was holding a longbow in his hand. The bronze-colored bow was shaped like a full moon, with delicate patterns carved and inlaid with gorgeous gemstones. It looked like a superior thing.

"My lord, the Lingxian bow you brought back for refurbishment has been sent back. I don't know where to keep it?" The guard presented the longbow in front of him with both hands, and asked cautiously.

"Refurbished?" Lan Jing looked at this superb longbow in confusion, but she still couldn't remember when she had such a thing.

"Yes, you won the bet with General Zhang's eldest son last time. Mr. Zhang said at first that you don't need it, but you said...you can hang it up to ward off evil..." The guard became more and more timid as he spoke. , I wonder if I know too much...

Unexpectedly, the displeasure on Lan Jing's face suddenly flashed, touched the silver-like bowstring, smiled and said: "Send it directly to the princess, just say that I will take him to the paddock for winter hunting tomorrow morning. "

"Yes." The guard stepped back carefully holding the bow, but Lan Jing fell into deep thought.The last time I was on Mount Fanyi, I felt that Li Xuan, who was riding a horse and whipping his whip, was very handsome. This time, I might as well take the opportunity to go hunting and communicate with each other.

……

Sure enough, when Li Xuancai saw the bow, he couldn't put it down, and when he heard that Lan Jing wanted to take him to winter hunting, he agreed without hesitation.

The paddock that has just entered winter is already withered and yellow everywhere, and large tracts of dry grass are crawling on the cold and hard land, slightly desolate.

Lan Jing gave him the hard-earned horse "taken from Li Xuan's mouth", and she chose a bay red horse at random, and slowly followed behind him.

Under the blue sky, a man and a horse galloped heartily on the golden field, and several black hounds also galloped around, barking wildly to drive away the fleeing prey.

Li Xuan's vigorous body straddled the horse steadily, with a few strands of black hair flying gently behind his ears under the long hairpin.He bent his bow and set an arrow, and the sharp blade whizzed through the sky. A stag was shot through the neck in an instant, and fell to the ground staggeringly.

"Good!" After cheering for a while, the guards rushed to drag the deer back to the camp.Li Xuan turned his head excitedly, and raised the long bow in his hand to Lan Jing.

Lan Jing smiled slightly, but her heart was as sweet as honey.

The whole morning was fruitful, and when Li Xuan strode back to the camp, sweating profusely, the guards lit a fire outside the tent and sat around to roast the delicious food they had just hunted.

Lan Jing leaned over to Li Xuan's side, watched him skilfully skinned a rabbit and skewered it on a dead branch until it was sizzling, suddenly frowned meaningfully, and said in a low voice, "I heard The general is good at roasting rabbits."

Li Xuan glanced at him ignorantly, thinking that he was greedy, so he cut off a rabbit's leg with the short dagger he carried with him, and handed it to him with the tip of the knife.

A strong meaty aroma slowly diffused between the fingers, making the index finger move.Lan Jing didn't care about avenging Lan Jin's dead rabbit at the moment, took the rabbit leg and took a big bite, and immediately felt that his mouth was full of delicious food. He hadn't eaten any delicacies from mountains and seas for so many years, but now thinking about it, it's not as good as this one The roast was a delight.

"In the northwest, there was a time when I was besieged..." Li Xuan slowly turned the dead branch in his hand, looking at the jumping flames and muttering in a daze, "If there is no food, you have to solve it yourself. Sometimes it is rotten. Foul steeds, sometimes even... dead people..."

After Li Xuan finished speaking every word, he looked sideways at Lanjing.At first, Lan Jing ate with gusto, but suddenly she stopped, and slowly shifted her gaze to Li Xuan's face, only to feel a dark tide surging in her stomach, she couldn't spit or swallow that mouthful of meat... …

Seeing his bitter face, Li Xuan suddenly couldn't help laughing, while laughing, he lifted the roasted rabbit meat to his mouth and took a bite, chewing and teasing: "I won't eat it if you're lying to me. people."

Lan Jin breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, but seeing the remaining half of the rabbit's leg in her hand, she couldn't keep her mouth shut no matter what.

It's not good to give back to Li Xuan what I have eaten, Lan Jing sighed quietly, and just threw it away.

Half of the rabbit's leg flew out along a beautiful curve, followed by a painful cry: "Ah!"

Lost to someone? ?

That can't be called so badly, can it? ?

Lan Jing looked forward with a face full of confusion, but Li Xuan threw her down on the ground the next moment.

Wow!What's the matter with being held down by your own princess in public?But why is it surprisingly good to be bound in his arms? !

"Li..." Lan Jing's lips moved slightly, before the second word could be uttered, her lips were covered by a pair of powerful hands.

Almost at the same time, a rain of arrows swept across the sky, turning the tent in the distance into a hedgehog in an instant.

"Hide in the grass and don't move." Li Xuan's low voice rang in his ears coldly, carrying undeniable majesty.After another wave of arrows rained, he glanced sideways at Ling Feng who was gradually sneaking to his side, and ordered in a low voice, "Protect your master."

Then he jumped up, pulled out the black iron saber that never left his body, and ruthlessly swept towards the black figures surrounded by him.

The sound of fierce fighting suddenly erupted not far away, and the air was filled with disgusting blood.While Ling Feng swung his sword to block the hidden weapon of the arrow, he dragged Lan Jing, whose legs were a little weak, to a relatively safe place, and observed the surrounding situation vigilantly.

Lan Jing hugged the tree trunk nervously, and looked at the group of men in black from a distance, observing the situation while looking for Li Xuan's vigorous figure.With Ling Feng around, he wasn't worried about his own safety. Even if a group of killers surrounded him, Ling Feng was capable of getting him out alive.It's just that at this moment, he is faintly worried, if Li Xuan accidentally falls into the enemy group, will he be injured...

But in fact, Li Xuan was leading a group of guards to fight heartily at this moment.It's been a long time since I had such a happy fight. I've been trapped in the capital for such a long time, and I've been confronted with wooden piles on a sand table every day. The object of venting.

In the crowd, Li Xuan was agile and sharp-eyed, with a long sword flying up and down, chasing souls and killing them.Those killers were skilled, but when they met this domineering general who was red-eyed, they were all reduced to fish on the chopping board and allowed to be slaughtered by him.

Suddenly, there was a piercing whistling sound in the distance, a black figure pierced the sky, and several hidden weapons went straight to Li Xuan's gate of life.

"There is a hidden weapon!!"

Ling Feng took out several Hidden Swords from his waist, and threw them towards Li Xuan almost at the same time.Hearing Ling Feng's reminder, Li Xuan hurriedly flew to dodge. After hearing a "clinking" sound of metal collisions, the concealed weapon and Hidden Blade fell to the ground at the same time, and at the same time, the black-clothed assassin charged straight over with a long sword.

At this time, Li Xuan's body was stained with a large amount of blood, but his reddish eyes were shining with a cold light.He took up a sword flower and greeted his opponent without hesitation.

Lan Jing saw that the surrounding battles had gradually ceased. Although his own people also suffered heavy losses, this group of assassins had been cleaned up by his subordinates except for the leader who just flew over.He turned around, pushed Ling Feng's arm hard, and said with a frown, "I'm not going to help."

"My lord, you look down on General Li too much. The assassin failed in the sneak attack just now, and now he has no chance of winning at all." Looking at the fierce battle in front of him, Ling Feng clicked his tongue a few times, "The hidden weapon must have been poisoned, and it was specially here to ask for it. His life."

Lan Jing's kung fu is not good, and she can't tell who has the upper hand in the two people who are coming and going. Now hearing Ling Feng say this again, she feels more and more worried.

"Don't worry, my lord, General Li's skill is not bad, um... just a little bit worse than mine."

Lan Jing looked at Ling Feng's smug face, wishing to slap him on the face, but right now she had to count on him to help Li Xuan in an emergency, so she gritted her teeth and forcibly put back the thought .

I don't know how long it took before Lanjing finally noticed that the black-clothed assassin was gradually losing the wind, stretched everywhere and tired of coping, but Li Xuan was fighting more and more courageously, his tightly pursed lips were slightly raised, and there was a smile in his eyes. A bloodthirsty light.

"Leave someone under the sword of the general!!" Ling Feng's eyes froze, and he hurriedly rushed towards the two of them, but because of the distance, before they arrived, the red-eyed Li Xuan had already stabbed the man's heart with his sword .

Doomed for sure...

Ling Feng rushed to Li Xuan, looked at the man who had already vomited blood, and shook his head helplessly: "General, why don't you leave him alive and interrogate the origin carefully?"

"Uh..." Li Xuan also suddenly realized this problem. He was born in the northwest and grew up on the battlefield. He knows whether he is friend or foe, and he is really not used to this conspiracy hidden in the dark.But now the only living person was slaughtered by him with a sword, and the only clue was broken. After the battle was over, he didn't know who the person who came was.

Lan Jing had already got out of the grass at this time, seeing Li Xuan's face showing embarrassment, she hurriedly jumped over to smooth things over and said, "Does this still need to be investigated?"

The two looked at him at the same time, only to see Lan Jing brushing the hay on the lapel with lowered eyes, and said with a low sneer: "Because of Lan Jin's matter, I just offended him in the court two days ago. He couldn't wait to send someone to take revenge, he really has no patience."

"In this case, let's go back to the city earlier, at least on the surface, he always has to be a bit scrupulous." Ling Feng looked around, the guards were not injured, and the afternoon sun gradually began to turn west It's really not a wise move to stay in this wilderness any longer.

Li Xuan didn't speak, his deep black eyes slowly moved to the body that was getting colder, he leaned over and tore off the black cloth on his face, looking at the blood-stained face, he suddenly fell into deep thought.

Can't tell what's wrong.

Although he has no evidence at the moment, he always feels that things... are not as simple as Lan Jing said!
