empress and princess

Chapter 5 The Empress and the Eldest Princess

Qin Jihuang squeezed him aside, and the position closest to the eldest princess was occupied, which made Meng Qiong very angry, but he was scrupulous, and couldn't fight in front of Chu Huaimin.

"This Major General doesn't care about women, let's see the truth in the hunting ground!"

Meng Qiong cast a contemptuous look at Qin Tangjing, saluted Chu Huaimin, shook his sleeves and left angrily.

Only the two of them stood side by side.

Chu Huaimin said nothing, and neither did she.

The scorching sun and the strong wind in the hunting ground caused Qin Tangjing's red dress to float to his side and gently intertwine with Chu Huaimin's snowy white shirt.

It seems that they are competing for beauty, regardless of you and me.

Qin Tangjing watched with interest, twisted a strand of white clothes around her fingertips, and had a great time playing.Chu Huaimin saw it with downcast eyes, frowned slightly, and calmly pulled the corner of his clothes out of Qin Tangjing's hand.

This suddenly blocked her interest, Qin Tangjing looked at her, curled her lips, but said nothing, withdrew her hand and settled down.

"Over the years, Major General Meng has won the first prize many times. Princess Qin must be careful." Chu Huaimin watched Meng Qiong ride into the hunting ground from a distance, thought for a while, and opened his mouth first:

"If you repent, there is still time."

Qin Tang said leisurely: "Is the eldest princess caring about me?"

"I kindly remind you."

"The court lady should thank the eldest princess, but I, Qin Jihuang, have never regretted it." The powerful voice on the ground made people dare not take it lightly, Qin Tangjing put away the folding fan and tapped on the palm of his hand.

These words made Chu Huaimin turn to look at her, "Aren't you afraid that Qin Guo will lose face?"

Qin Tangjing said, "I don't think so."

Seeing her calm expression and a hint of arrogance in her delicate eyebrows, Chu Huaimin couldn't help but think of that day in the arena where she saw Qin Jihuang defeat Meng Qiong with ease. His skill is not inferior to hers.

Even though Meng Qiong is a general, he doesn't know the tricks of the court, so he might not be Qin Jihuang's opponent. This hunting needs to be reconsidered.

Just now Meng Qiong bet with Qin Jihuang, it doesn't matter who wins or loses.

After all, it is a matter of the face of the two countries.

Therefore, Chu Huaimin said: "County Master Qin, I have an idea, I wonder if I can listen to what I have to say."

"Oh? What's the solution?" Qin Tangjing raised his eyebrows when he heard that, turned sideways, and looked directly into those cold eyes.

She said, "It doesn't matter whether you win or lose."

When I heard this, I knew it.

"How?" Chu Huaimin said lightly again, "Princess Qin is a smart man, so he must know the reason." Qin Tangjing smiled meaningfully.

Of course, it is clear what it is for, and it is not his own country.

After a while, Qin Jiufeng led the horse over, Qin Tangjing got on the horse, and her clear face was shrouded in golden light, with a shallow curve on her lips, her eyes were soft, and she smiled brightly, which made Chu Huaimin see I was taken aback.

Qin Tangjing pulled the rein with both hands, and looked down at her condescendingly:

"My daughter-in-law will carefully consider the eldest princess's proposal."

After the words fell, with a coquettish shout, Qin Tangjing clamped the horse's belly, and the horse rolled up the dust, with a heroic posture facing the scorching sun and going away.Chu Huaimin kept watching until a strand of red clothes completely disappeared from sight.

Qin Tangjing had just left, when the king of Chu got the news and rushed over to watch the fun. He saw Chu Huaimin sitting there drinking tea, sitting beside her, and he felt elated:

"Meng Qiong's hunting skills are unmatched. Qin Jihuang is just a daughter, so even if she knows some martial arts, how capable is she!"

Chu Huaimin disagreed, "Brother Emperor, Qin Jihuang should not be underestimated."

"With you here, I am not afraid of being lonely. Today's hunting will definitely make Qin State lose face." Chu Wang seemed to have forgotten that he was tricked and cheated a few days ago, and said with a slight smile:

"Aren't they afraid that they won't find a chance in our territory of Chu State? There is no shortage of deep mountains and old forests in the hunting grounds, and the sky is screaming and the earth is not working. An ambush has been set up there alone. As long as they stray into it by mistake, teach them a lesson." Meal!"

Chu Huaimin was startled immediately, "Setting up an ambush? What kind of ambush?"

"Gu just released a few ferocious beasts, and didn't want to kill them." The King of Chu snorted coldly, "But..."

Chu Huaimin pursed his lips tightly, got up and walked forward without saying a word.

Seeing her stepping down the steps without looking back, King Chu was stunned for a moment, stood up quickly and shouted: "A Min, where are you going!"

Chu Huaimin had gone far away, and rode his horse into the hunting ground. The King of Chu immediately turned around in a hurry, fearing that those beasts would hurt her, he turned around and slapped his personal attendant on the back of the head, roaring angrily:

"What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and protect the eldest princess!"

Hunted for half an hour.

Qin Tangjing over there was holding a bow, and prey, big or small, were killed by the sharp arrows, and those who were unlucky enough to meet her were killed.

Another jumping rabbit ran out. Qin Tangjing drew his arrow and bow in one go, and immediately aimed and fired an arrow. The sharp arrowhead engraved with the word "Qin" hit the prey.

Someone came forward to pick it up immediately.

"Jihuang won easily, but it's a pity that she agreed to the request of the eldest princess. I can't hear Chu people calling you aunt three times."

Qin Jiufeng looked back and saw that there were piles of prey on the cart.

She shook her head regretfully.

"The eldest princess said that she will mediate in the end. The number of hunts between Qin and Chu is not divided into winners and losers. In this way, the preservation of Chu and my Qin Jihuang's face will not embarrass the two countries and destroy the friendly relationship."

"The eldest princess understands righteousness, so I don't want to lose face, right?"

Qin Tangjing put down his bow and scanned his surroundings.

The field was devoid of prey, almost lying on the cart behind her.

"It's better to keep a low profile, give Chu State a step down, so as not to offend those people and cause us trouble." Qin Jiufeng said.

But the more you don't want to cause trouble, the more trouble will come to you.

That Fang Mengqiong was chasing a deer, and a large group of people besieged it, but the sika deer ran straight towards Qin Tangjing, and the two sides inevitably met.

From afar, Meng Qiong saw Qin Tangjing, fearing that she would get there first, so he yelled at her loudly:

"Step aside!"

Qin Tang refused to let go, narrowed his eyes, and did not show weakness, looking for the best time, he suddenly raised his whip to catch up.

She lifted the bow with one hand and drew the arrow with the other, and her movements were neat. Seeing this, Meng Qiong's eyes widened with anger on the spot, and she quickly stabilized the shaking figure, found the direction where the sika deer was fleeing, and pulled the bow with the arrow, and shot it out first. Thinking of another one chasing after him, he quickly shot his arrow down.

No one got a bargain, the sika deer fled even further, Meng Qiong looked up, Qin Jihuang raised her eyebrows and smiled frivolously:

"Major General Meng, I'm sorry, I missed it."

It was clearly done on purpose, and being easily provoked by her, Meng Qiong blushed, "Qin Jihuang, don't go too far!"

Qin Tangjing stopped his horse and stopped chasing, "Young General Meng, please."

"...You are acquainted!"

Meng Qiong snorted coldly, rode a horse and quickly crossed paths with Qin Tangjing and continued to chase.

Unexpectedly, there was a subtle sound of piercing the sky suddenly behind him, Meng Qiong's complexion changed, and he tilted his head subconsciously, an arrowhead scraped past his ear with a sharp force, Meng Qiong's face changed drastically, but he saw That arrowhead hit the deer directly!

The sika deer in the distance staggered a few times and fell to the ground.

"Qin Jihuang!!"

The sika deer was quickly picked up by the people of Qin as a prize, and Qin Tangjing lightly left behind a sentence, "Whoever sees it has a share" and left.

Meng Qiong was so angry that his teeth itch, but seeing Qin Tangjing drive his horse into the depths of the forest, and thinking of the plot with the King of Chu, he sneered, knowing that Qin Tangjing would finally suffer.

Qin Tangjing loved hunting already, and he always hunted several times a year. His interest never faded. When he looked up, he suddenly saw the shadow of prey in the forest in front of him, and immediately rode forward.

As she walked, she ordered: "We will walk around nearby, and no one is allowed to go deep."

"Yes!"

Before getting any closer, Qin Jiufeng was startled by fluctuations in the air, and shouted:

"Jihuang be careful!"

Qin Tangjing reacted quickly and quickly dodged sideways, but turned her head and found that the arrow shot from the side was not malicious.All the guards stepped forward one after another, surrounded them and guarded their surroundings.

The sound of horseshoes soon came from the silent place, and they arrived in front of them in a short while.

"It's you?"

Qin Tangjing was a little surprised, looking at the woman in white who was sitting on the horseback, "Is the eldest princess also coming to hunt?"

Chu Huaimin nodded slowly, "Don't go, it's dangerous inside."

"The eldest princess came here to tell me?" Qin Tangjing blinked.

"It is forbidden to enter here, did no one tell you when Princess Qin came in?"

"This is not."

"Sorry, I was negligent."

Seeing that Qin Tangjing was safe, Chu Huaimin calmed his brows, glanced at the cart out of the corner of his eye, and glanced at the Chu guards who followed Qin Tangjing from afar. The guards were guilty and did not dare to meet her eyes. lowered his head.

Her imperial brother actually ignored the current situation and set up an ambush for his own selfish desires. Qin Jihuang and Qin Jiufeng were both members of the Qin royal family. Once something unexpected happened, Qin would not let it go.

Chu Huaimin saw that Qin Tangjing's cheeks were flushed, and sweat was protruding from his smooth forehead, flowing down his cheeks.

She hesitated for a moment, then took out a handkerchief from her bosom and handed it to Qin Tangjing:

"Princess Qin."

"Thank you, princess." Qin Tangjing was not polite, put down her bow and stretched out her hand to pick up the handkerchief. Her fingertips inadvertently touched Chu Huaimin's, and she was stunned by a cold feeling.

However, Chu Huaimin bent his hands and went back, his face was so indifferent that no emotion could be seen.

The light blue veil had a unique faint fragrance, Qin Tangjing couldn't bear to get dirty, she wiped it a few times and didn't give it to Chu Huaimin, she put it in her sleeve.

"Wash it and return it to you."

"Well," Chu Huaimin responded, seeing that she was fine and didn't want to stay too long, he pulled the reins and wanted to leave, but heard Qin Tangjing chuckle:

"Since you're here, do you want the Eldest Princess to hunt with me?"

Before Chu Huaimin's polite refusal came out of his mouth, there was a strange rustling sound in the forest, as if something was moving this way, the number was more than two or three, and the horses under the crowd seemed to know something and followed suit. Hiss became agitated.

"Look, what is that?"

"General, they are coming this way!"

A servant exclaimed: "Ah, wild boars, there are so many wild boars!"

Qin Jiufeng said: "Don't panic!"

Qin Tangjing pulled out his arrows and shot a few, Chu Huaimin's expression changed, "Go quickly."

There were a lot of them, but a dozen wild boars taller than humans suddenly rushed out madly, each of them was enough to kill a person, and the wild boars ran from both sides trying to surround the crowd. Pretending to be calm, the guards of Chu were afraid, and their lives were the most important thing, so they hurriedly called "Eldest Princess" a few times and turned around and ran away first.

While protecting Qin Tangjing, Qin Jiufeng shot arrows at the wild boar that was chasing after him, but the wild boar's fur was too thick, so it didn't hurt them.

The wild boar ran so fast that he almost caught up with them.Qin Tangjing suddenly heard the neighing of the horse, his white shirt flickered out of the corner of his eyes, and subconsciously looked back, only to see a wild boar pounced up and scratched the horse, and the horse couldn't hold back in fright.

That was Chu Huaimin's horse.

Qin Tangjing gritted her teeth and turned back.

"Ji Huang!"

Qin Jiufeng turned pale in shock, and wanted to turn back to help, but Qin Tangjing had already rushed over, so he didn't care so much, he found a chance to save someone, and circled around Chu Huaimin.

"Grab my hand!"

Seeing her come back, Chu Huaimin was shocked.Knowing that the injured horse couldn't outrun the wild boar, Chu Huaimin made a decisive decision and raised his hand to hold her.

Qin Tangjing took advantage of the situation to pull, picked up Chu Huaimin and placed it in front of him, and grabbed the reins with his hands over her waist.

After running a little farther, the wild boar couldn't catch up, and Qin Tangjing turned around and couldn't see the wild boar, so he breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Are you okay?"

The person in front of her replied, "It's okay."

"The royal hunting ground, where did so many ferocious wild boars come from?"

The eldest princess almost lost her life.

Qin Tangjing just asked casually, because the hunting grounds cannot be guaranteed to be safe and sound, but they were unlucky to meet him today, but it left Chu Huaimin speechless for a long time.It can't be said that it was specially arranged to see you Qin people making embarrassments.

"Mr. Qin, thank you."

Chu Huaimin's voice was as clear and cold as her demeanor, but pleasant to the ear.

Qin Tangjing approached Chu Huaimin without touching Chu Huaimin, and breathed warm breath into her ear from an almost invisible distance, "I saved your life, how do you repay it?"

Chu Huaimin didn't make a sound, but the people behind him laughed:

"How about a promise to you?"

"Or, how about the eldest princess returning to Qin with me?"
