After being forced to marry an enemy tyrant

Seven days later, the hunting conference was held as scheduled.

The fox family pays attention to sacrifices, and sacrifices are held in spring, summer, autumn and winter, and spring hunting is the most important part of spring sacrifices.The significance of spring hunting is not only because spring is the first of the four seasons, but also because after the hunting is over, the future heir must represent the entire fox clan to sacrifice the prey to the Nine-Tailed Fox God and pray for the people.

In previous years, the two His Majesties Fox did not perform the coming-of-age ceremony, and Bo Hui presided over the sacrificial ceremony alone. But this year, both Zhulong and Zhumeng have begun to transform into spirits. According to the rules, Bo Hui, who is the fox emperor, must choose an heir to share with him. He joins in the sacrifice.Yesterday, all the officials blocked the entrance of the Shouyang Hall, asking Bo Hui to decide on the candidate, but Bo Hui said that for the sake of fairness, the decision to let him participate should be based on the number of prey the two sons hunted today.

All the officials of the fox family didn't say anything, but they all agreed in their hearts that Bo Hui's move was hasty. This was the selection of the crown prince, the selection of the heir, and not the selection of the champion of martial arts.In order to show their determination and standpoint, when everyone entered the spiritual realm, they all consciously clustered around Zhu Long, and kept away from Zhu Meng's car.

"The riding attire, bow and arrow are all ready, would you like to change into them now, Your Highness?"

Cang Jie walked around from behind, brought a set of supplies to Zhu Meng's car, and asked with a bow.

Zhu Meng sat in the cloud car, raised the curtain with one hand, looked at Zhu Long surrounded by the crowd on the back of the spirit beast with cold eyes, clenched his fists, and did not answer.

"Hypocritical."

Zhu Meng snorted, and angrily threw down the curtain: "I want to see how long he can be proud."

"Small intolerance can lead to chaos, cousin must not mess up."

Chang Ling sat in a corner of the carriage wearing a curtain, with an old book on his lap, raised his head upon hearing this, and reminded.The Changling has a special status and it is inconvenient to show up. In order to deceive others, Zhu Meng deliberately prepared a light veil to leave, declaring that the Changling is the counselor he newly introduced to the mansion.

Zhu Meng was full of suffocation and had nowhere to vent his anger. Seeing Cang Jie standing respectfully outside the car door with his things in his hands, he stretched out his foot and kicked Cang Jie hard on the back, yelling, "Why are you still standing there, why don't you come over to meet me?" Young master change clothes."

Seeing this, the maidservants and guards of Juying Hall all looked over here with subtle expressions.

Outsiders don't know the true identity of Changling, but the attendants of Juying Palace know it.

Ever since Cangjie went to Zhu Meng, Zhu Meng has always treated this former official in charge of Chenfeng Palace with courtesy. Today, Zhu Meng scolded Cangjie in public, obviously for the sake of the old master Chang Ling.

The palace people all expected Chang Ling's reaction, but Chang Ling knelt silently in a corner of the dark carriage, without even raising his eyelids, as if he hadn't noticed Zhu Meng's malicious words and deeds just a few feet away.

On the other hand, Cang Jie chuckled, patted off the dirt on his body indifferently, climbed into the cart and knelt down in front of Zhu Meng to apologize, and changed Zhu Meng's riding clothes quickly.

The former master and servant are now strangers.The crowd failed to watch the play, some secretly scolded Cangjie for betraying the Lord and seeking glory, and some lamented that the Elder Master seemed more timid and cowardly than ever since he left Sirius, and he couldn't even keep his own servant.

Zhu Meng looked at Cang Jie, and said in a strange way: "Serving my new master in front of the old master, I'm afraid it will be uncomfortable."

Cangjie's expression remained unchanged, he just lowered his head and said, "Your Highness said so, this old servant is terrified."

Zhu Meng snorted coldly, and glanced at Chang Ling who was reading with downcast eyes, feeling a little relieved at last.

Not long after, Fox Emperor Bohui arrived in a special imperial chariot, followed by two long lines of guards of honor.When passing by Zhu Meng's cloud car, Bo Hui deliberately stopped it, called Zhu Meng to him, and gave a long speech to ask brothers and friends to be respectful, and they must not be greedy for meritorious deeds.

Zhu Meng listened respectfully to the instructions on his face, but felt angry in his heart, and felt more and more that Bo Hui was targeting Zhu Long.

There was a sudden commotion at the entrance of the spirit realm.A ostentatious voice sounded afterward: "Brother Tu Shan, there is such a grand event among the nobles today, how could you not know that you will hear from me? You are too rude."

Looking back, Bo Hui saw Zhuye sitting on the back of the Kuilong beast with flamboyant red hair, looking at him with a smile that was not a smile, followed by a group of heavily armed Chiyou warriors, with uncontrollable muscles on their faces After twitching twice, Fang took the attitude of welcoming and sending off on a regular basis and smiled apologetically: "This, isn't this preparation hasty, when will the second prince arrive?"

Chayye turned over and got off the back of the beast, came over boldly, put his arms around Bo Hui's shoulders, and said, "It's not too early or too late, I just arrived. Why, don't you welcome me, my prince?"

Sweat broke out on Bo Hui's forehead, and he said with a bitter face: "What is the matter with the second prince, it is our Fox Clan's honor that you are willing to patronize me. I wonder if the second prince is here this time...?"

Ever since the four clans occupied Qingqiu, relying on Chi You's strength, they brought people to the king's capital every now and then to ask Bo Hui for food, as well as various spiritual grasses and treasures to assist in cultivation, and directly contacted Bo Hui regardless of the difference in generation. Hui said he was a brother and brother, and Bo Hui didn't dare to offend him, so he could only give as much as he wanted, bit the bullet and offered him as his ancestor.Qingqiu's officials all dared not speak out in private.

Zhuye patted him on the shoulder, grinned and said, "Why are you nervous? This prince is here to have fun, and I don't want your things."

Bo Hui didn't know how true or false what he said, so he could only answer Nuo Nuo.

Not far away, several fox children who participated in the hunting saw this, but their faces were disheveled and dissatisfied. The soldiers under Zhuye will be like him, all of them are cruel and bloodthirsty. With their participation, the spiritual realm will be plundered today Leaving nothing to say, the fox warriors might not have a chance to hunt any spirit beasts at all.

**

Before the spring hunting, there must be a grand launching ceremony, which will be carried out by successive emperors.

Bo Hui sat on the main seat, the fox generals who participated in the hunting, royal children, and monks sat on the left seat, and other civil officials sat on the right seat.Today, a VIP seat was temporarily set up next to the main seat, and it was the unexpected guest who had just arrived—the second prince of Chi You, Zhuye.

Naturally, everyone in the fox clan dared not speak out.

Chaser seemed to be unable to feel the hatred of the civil servants and generals below. After he stopped in a certain direction unconsciously for a while, he asked Bo Hui with a smile, "The auspicious time is coming soon. Brother Tu Shan, why haven't you started?" Launching Ceremony?"

Bo Hui dragged a heavy and complicated costume, and kept looking into the distance, with obvious anxiety on his face. Just as he was about to answer, the entire ground of the spiritual realm suddenly trembled without warning, accompanied by war horses that shook the world. Hissing.

This is the movement caused by huge waves of spiritual power and high-level war horses!

Chi You, who followed Chaye, instinctively stretched his back, and put his hand on the saber at his waist.The flying leaf spirit flowers in the spiritual realm were shaken and danced all over the sky. Amidst the billowing smoke and dust, a group of soldiers in black armor with the word "Yan" embroidered with silver thread on their shoulder straps appeared in front of everyone.

Bo Huixiang heaved a sigh of relief, and said joyfully, "Here we come, we come, we finally come."

Zhuye squinted at the words embroidered on the shoulder of the leading general in black armor, squinted his eyes, and asked with an unpredictable expression: "Could it be——?"

"It's the border guards!"

"Since Mr. Boyan ascended to eternity, didn't the border guards stick to the northern border without moving an inch?"

"The border guards have returned to the capital to participate in the spring hunting?!"

The uproarious civil servants and young monks quickly gave the answer.The generals sitting in the left seat showed subtle expressions in unison.

The border garrison created by Tu Shan Boyan, the emperor of the fox tribe, has provided a model of cavalry for countless tribes in Xianzhou. It is this army.It's a pity that Tu Shan Boyan was killed in the Battle of Snowfield in the Northern Region, and almost all the eighteen generals under his command were wiped out, leaving only Xi Yun, who is now the leader of the border guards.

After Boyan's death in battle, the decoration on the shoulders of the border guards still retained the word "Yan", and they were stationed in the northern border in accordance with the old master's edict, and never left the northern border for half a step.On weekdays and festivals, Bo Hui also sent gifts directly to the northern border.

On weekdays, Bo Hui invited three times and five times, and the border guards who could not be recalled even after twelve royal edicts, now took the initiative to show up in the king's capital, and it was for the spring hunting. How could it not be surprising.The civil servants with a keen sense of smell quickly and keenly noticed that today's spring hunting may not be destined to be peaceful.

"General Xiyun!"

When everyone else was in great shock, Zhu Long was the first to stand up from his seat, and greeted him personally, bowing to salute through the horse and the heroic general on horseback.

"Father and all the ministers are still waiting for the general, please take the seat quickly!"

The civil servants couldn't help being suspicious again.

When did this son, Zhu Long, have such a good relationship with Xi Yun?

The one who was even more shocked and angry was Zhu Meng. He only had the guards in his hands. He was already far from Zhu Long in strength and could only rely on outsmarting. Now Zhu Long actually brought Xi Yun and the border guards under his command!If it wasn't for Cangjie's desperate winking, Zhu Meng might turn the table over on the spot.

Zhu Meng's eyes were like thorns, and he tilted his head to stab at the harmless and well-behaved Chang Ling who was sitting beside him.

Chang Ling was wearing a curtain and was silently gnawing on a piece of pastry. Feeling the burning gaze, he raised his head and looked at Zhu Meng innocently.That's like saying, "I just found out about this, and I'm not familiar with the border guards."

Zhu Meng almost spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Xi Aiqing!"

The second person who stood up excitedly was Bo Hui.

Bo Huiyu condescended to welcome him down the steps, wanting to hold Xiyun's hands.According to this situation, the courtiers on the opposite side should accept the special courtesy of the lord with sincerity, but Xi Yun just took half a step back expressionlessly, pressed his hands on his chest, saluted respectfully, and then said the two words as coldly as he himself. His ice-like gaze fixed on Zhuye who was sitting on the side of the main seat with his legs crossed.

Both of Bo Hui's hands stopped in the air in embarrassment.

"Well, Aiqing came here from the north for spring hunting. It's really hard work."

Bo Hui withdrew his hand with a smile, and in front of a group of courtiers in public, he didn't change his face, and didn't feel embarrassed at all.

Xi Yun's face was as cold as frost all the time, and he said: "This is my duty, I don't dare to say bitterness. I just didn't expect that the customs of the fox clan would change after not returning to Qingqiu for many years."

Bo Hui didn't understand for a while, and hurriedly said: "No change, no change, all the rules and etiquette of Spring Hunting are according to when my brother was alive..."

Before he could finish speaking, Xi Yun cut him off.

"I'm referring to the Spring Hunting of the Fox Clan. When did you allow foreigners to participate?"

These words were short of pointing at Zhuye's nose and cursing, Bo Hui suddenly swallowed a firecracker, and the atmosphere immediately became tense.Although the people present in Qingqiu, especially the civil servants, didn't dare to openly agree, they couldn't help venting their anger in their hearts. The warrior Chi You who followed him from the field suddenly opened his eyes wide and poured spiritual energy into his sword.

This is simply the rhythm of war.

Bo Hui broke out in a cold sweat, and said in a panic, "Ai Qing, listen to me..." Before he had a chance to say the rest, Zhuye Shi Shi suddenly stood up.

Zhuye smiled and said: "General Xiyun has been in the northern region for a long time, and the news is blocked. I'm afraid I don't know yet. Today's Qingqiu is no longer the Tushan clan's Qingqiu, but our four clans jointly rule—"

Zhuye talked while walking, at the moment when he stepped down the stone steps and was about to reach within half a foot of the stream and clouds, his footsteps suddenly stopped, and his smile froze at the corner of his mouth.

It's not that he doesn't want to leave, but that he can't.In the world of comprehension, most of the time, the difference in strength between monks does not require a battle at all to distinguish the good from the bad. The most intuitive reference is whether you can enter the opponent's "aura." The so-called "aura" is the monk's release. The invisible "field" formed by the spiritual energy emitted is an invisible contest, which is actually undetectable to outsiders except for the two parties in opposing situations.For example, at this moment, Zhuye was shocked to find that there seemed to be an iron wall suddenly erected in front of him, making it impossible for him to take another step.

He couldn't enter Xiyun's "aura".

Zhuye's facial muscles couldn't help but twitched twice, his pupils flinched, and he stared in shock and surprise at the cold-faced general in armor half a foot away. For the first time, he clearly realized that - it turned out that the former general under Tu Shan Boyan's command The eighteen generals are not exaggerated sequels by later generations, they do have extraordinary strength.

The eyes that look like streams, clouds and cold pools are as real as they are, and he said coldly: "The snake wants to swallow the elephant, so I have to see if my appetite can hold it up. If I can't swallow it well, it will break my stomach."

"Your Majesty, should the hunt begin?"

Bo Hui's name was suddenly called, and he couldn't find a word for a while, so he subconsciously raised his sleeves to wipe off his sweat, and nodded like a pompous head: "Yes, it's time to start."

Xiyun turned on his horse, and the border guards were sucked into the depths of the spiritual realm like a puff of smoke.

Chasing the field with mixed feelings of regret and anger, I couldn't help but think: that day when the four clans jointly attacked Qingqiu, Zhao Yan tried his best to defy all opinions and specially dispatched two confidant teams from the Sixteenth Division of Sirius to join Chi You to attack the border led by Xiyun The defenders really had the foresight.If it weren't for this, with Xiyun guarding the northern border, Qingqiu would be an iron wall, so it would be easy to break through.

The courtiers had no intention of following the procedure at all, and Bo Hui simply skipped all the tedious etiquette and announced the official start of the spring hunting.

Civil servants basically came to see the excitement, while most of the military generals followed Zhu Long's eyes. Zhu Long saw Xiyun take the first step and was already very anxious. Bo Hui let go and immediately led several confidant generals to chase after him in the spiritual realm .

Zhu Meng looked anxiously at Chang Ling: "What should we do?"

Chang Ling said: "According to the original plan, hunting."

Zhu Mengwohuo: "Who doesn't know that hunting is just a cover to fool people. Someone has already stuck on it like a dog's skin plaster. What chance do I have?"

Recently, Zhu Meng's temperament has become more impetuous and extreme than before. As he spoke, his eyes showed a bit of smoldering color: "The big deal, I will fight with him to the death. I will definitely avenge this revenge!"

Chang Ling sighed: "Now my cousin and I are both prosperous and wealtered. My cousin wants to die, but I don't want to die so soon."

Cangjie also took the opportunity to persuade from the side: "There are many people in this place, Your Highness must be careful with what you say."

"Be careful, be careful, how do you want me to endure this situation!"

Zhu Meng gritted his teeth and clenched his fists hidden in his sleeves. He couldn't help but look at Chang Ling who was still gnawing on pastries heartlessly, and said, "Xi Yun is your father's old subordinate after all. He has no friendship at all?"

Chang Ling took a sip of tea silently, and said: "The entire fox clan knows about my relationship with the border guards, so why should my cousin ask why? In their eyes, I am nothing more than a worthless young master. Let me be a lobbyist. It’s better for my cousin to fight in person.”

Zhu Meng knew that this was not an excuse from the elder spirit.

Otherwise, he would not have dared to openly bully the elder spirit without any scruples in the past so many years.

Zhu Meng became more and more frustrated: "Then according to your opinion, we just sit and wait for death like this?"

Chang Ling didn't answer, but only asked, "According to my cousin, what will Xiyun hunt?"

Zhu Meng said without hesitation: "Naturally, it is the strongest and rarest spirit beast."

Chang Ling gave a low "huh": "Zhu Long probably thinks the same way."

Zhu Meng snorted disdainfully: "It's hard to guess, I'm afraid a three-year-old would..." He suddenly realized something in the middle of speaking, and said with a strange expression: "Isn't it?"

Chang Ling smiled slightly and said, "Except Your Majesty Xianjun, there should be no one in this world who understands the hunting style of the border guards better than me. If my cousin drags on, I'm afraid Zhu Long will really catch up."

"You didn't tell me sooner!"

Zhu Meng seemed to be surviving a desperate situation, so he stood up and hurriedly ordered the guards to bring his mount over.

Only Chang Ling and Cang Jie remained on the seats.

This is the first time in a long time that master and servant have found a chance to get along with each other. Cang Jie's throat was astringent, and he couldn't help but said: "When the old slave was serving the king, he had a few encounters with Xi Yun. Your Majesty's will to promote him as General Zuo was announced by this old slave, not as good as this old slave..."

Before finishing the following words, Chang Ling interrupted.

"Don't bother grandpa, I use Xiyun, I never thought of having a relationship with him, but use the situation to force him."

Cangjie blurted out anxiously: "But there are too many uncertainties in this. What if... the old slave knows that the young master has resentment towards the king in his heart, but the young master would rather put himself in danger than rely on the help of the king. Yu Wei, it's too irrational."

Chang Ling turned his head to look at him, and said without any ups and downs, "I'm very rational, but if Grandpa cares about it, I'll be confused."

"Little Lord!"

Chang Ling's eyes narrowed, showing a flamboyant smile, and said: "I believe in the situation, in the way of luck, and in cause and effect, but I don't believe in emotion."

"Grandfather, you can open your eyes and see, this time, who will win."

Cangjie looked at the desperate young man in front of him, his heart was sore and painful, and he couldn't help but think of the conversation with Qingluan yesterday.

"This time back to Qingqiu, did the young master still only pay homage to the queen's tomb?"

Qingluan nodded, and looked at him in confusion, as if wondering why he asked this question: "The young master has always been like this for so many years. We should get used to it, some things can't be forced."

He laughed wryly, his heart pierced like a knife: "But you and I both know that these are just our own words to paralyze ourselves. The border guards are extremely loyal to the emperor. This kind of loyalty cannot even be surpassed by blood. Over the years, If it wasn't for the young master's insistence on acting like this, how could he have made those generals dissatisfied and put himself in such a helpless situation."

"Nowadays, there is clearly a smooth road to go, and the young master just wants to test his own strength to make dangerous moves. How can I... I really don't care and have no troubles."

"I often wonder now, did Your Majesty really do something wrong back then..."

"Cangjie!"

These words were really disrespectful, Qingluan immediately sternly stopped him from continuing, and scolded: "We are slaves, the value of loyalty is one, how dare you say such insulting words to the lord."

He shook his head with a wry smile, and hit his heart with his fist, saying: "A Luan, you don't understand, I'm hurting here."

"It's not that you don't know the young master's physical condition. I really don't want to see this child spend his whole life resenting the king and his own father."

Qingluan remained silent, and said for a long time: "If you know it's impossible, don't say any more."

"At least, it's not bad to be able to fulfill one wish, isn't it?"
