Tang Xuan

Chapter 123 Traveling Thousands of Miles Slowly

The Shangyuan Festival has passed without pain, but Qiuci is still firmly rooted in the west of Dunhuang, as solid as gold.Cong Canglanhu gritted his teeth and personally went into battle to supervise the battle, which was nothing more than killing a few more Tang soldiers.

As the ice and snow gradually melted, news from Chang'an City came and went much faster.That day, after Lang Huai had finished handling military affairs, he suddenly became interested, so he took Mr. Tao Junzhu along with Weiss, intending to go hunting outside the city.Before going out, she ran into Princess An Mu, she knew how they were going to hunt when she saw how they were dressed, how could An Mu bear it?He quickly snatched a horse to follow.

It must have been more than a month since the princess was suffocated in the city, and Lang Huai did not stop her. The group dressed in ordinary clothes, took the badge of the Jiedu envoy's mansion, and set off from the east gate to the wilderness and forest in the distance. .

Lang Huai's complexion improved a lot, but she was also suffocated. Ren Tayun ran, and she bent down on the horse's back. The hood tightly covered her face, revealing only a pair of clear eyes.

After running like this for less than half an hour, there was no one around him who could keep up.Lang Huai smiled, straightened his waist, and pulled the reins.She picked up the hanging longbow, gestured to the sand rabbit showing its whereabouts in the distance, and suddenly thought of Mingda.She shook her head, put down her longbow, and just strolled in the wilderness.

After a few moments, Mr. Zhu was heard shouting from a distance: "Master! Don't run away!"

Lang Huai simply stopped his horse and waited for them to catch up.When the person approached, she said: "I'm such an adult, I can't lose it."

Mr. Zhu looked her up and down to see that she was fine, and then said: "Who is worried about losing you? I'm afraid of meeting Cong Canglanhu."

An Mu followed behind. Seeing that Lang Huai's horse was empty, she couldn't help feeling underestimated.Just now, she chased all the way, she was proficient with bow and horse, but she hunted a lot, and she couldn't fit it on her horse's back, and there were quite a few of Wes's that belonged to her.

"He can't get through." Lang Huai replied with a smile: "I just haven't come out for a long time, so it's good to relax." Turning his head to look at Dongfang, Lang Huai said with a smile: "Now that I'm out, you will Have fun, I'll wait for you under the tree over there, and I'll be back in two hours."

After that, Lang Huai rode his horse over slowly, and Mr. Zhu felt relieved when he saw that she really dismounted and sat by the tree, and took out something to play with from her collar.

The four of them have been hunting for a long time. If you really let go of your hands and feet, you will get a lot in a short time.In addition to the common sand rabbit and sand fox, even wolves were hunted by An Mu.

"There were three of them just now. I chased one of them, and the other two ran towards you. Why didn't you catch them?" An Mu asked curiously about Mr. Zhu, only to hear the maid say: "Our master is from the Lang family, although we are different. Words, but unless forced to do so, the entire Lang family must not harm the lives of the wolf clan."

"Hmph, it's strange that you Han people are particular about it." An Mu glanced at Lang Huai, and said, "She looks so weak, is it really the first achievement in breaking Khotan back then?"

Mr. Zhu said proudly, "You're so weak? Who are you talking about?"

An Mu pouted in Lang Huai's direction, and said, "Of course it's your master."

These words made Mr. Zhu laugh out loud, and said: "Your Highness, if these words are released in Chang'an City for the Imperial Forest Army to hear, I'm afraid they will drown you with saliva."

An Mu didn't quite understand Mr. Zhu's meaning, and asked doubtfully, "Spit stars? Why do you Han people like such things?"

Mr. Zhu was taken aback, and said: "I mean, if your words are false, the Imperial Forest Army will not be convinced."

"How is that possible?" An Mu said disdainfully, "I think you, Mr. Mu, have better brains. If you talk about killing the enemy in the end, I'm afraid even I can't beat you."

Mr. Zhu has always been the most protective of Lang Huai, and he immediately retorted: "What do you know? At the beginning, the Lord crossed Anxi, killed countless enemies, and even captured Asuma with his own hands. Later, when he returned to Chang'an, the Imperial Forest Army won the championship, and the late emperor personally sealed it. The captain of the cavalry commanded the Jinwu guards. I am the inheritor of swords from the Tang Dynasty, and the saber is the famous ancient sword Chunjun, and I used that sword to kill a bear."

An Mu knew about Chunjun Sword, but only half of it.But when she heard that Lang Huai had killed a bear, she couldn't believe it. She shook her head violently and said, "She is so thin, I'm afraid she can't draw Sanshi's bow. Hunting a bear? You must be lying to me."

Mr. Zhu was anxious, and said: "Three stones? Our master usually uses five stones. The first emperor also gave Zhang Xiangyu the Heaven Chasing Bow, which is ten stones."

No matter what Mr. Zhu said, An Mu just didn't believe it, and later thought she was talking too much.Simply pull the horse and look for the prey next to it.Mr. Zhu swung his whip fiercely in the direction she left, and rode his horse to find Lang Huai.

Lang Huai was leaning against the tree trunk, playing with the red sandalwood card in his hand.Seeing Mr. Zhu approaching, she put it in her arms carefully, stood up and said, "What's the matter? Why do you have a bad face?"

Mr. Zhu summed up what happened just now, and said: "Master, you can try your hand at the end of the game and shut up that person's mouth! How did you not find her so annoying before?"

Lang Huai laughed and said, "Why are you arguing with her about these things? Master's skill is not as good as it was when he was in Anxi. There's nothing you can't tell people."

"But..." Mr. Zhu was about to say something, but was interrupted by Lang Huai waving his hand, and said: "It's hard to come out, why don't you play well?"

Mr. Zhu buried his grievances and said: "You were the one who said you were going to hunt, but you came to see the scenery?"

Lang Huai shook his head and said, "I just suddenly thought of Si Zi. She is kind-hearted and never kills for pleasure."

A few flying birds passed by in the sky, and Mr. Zhu stopped talking.After a long time, Lang Huai showed his face and said, "Let's go, the time is almost up."

Over there, An Mu succeeded repeatedly, and Weiss could only follow her to pick up all kinds of prey.An Mu didn't stop until his horse's back was also full of spoils.The two of them walked in the direction they came from, one in front of the other.

After all, An Mu couldn't bear it any longer, and said, "Have you ever hunted a bear, Mr. Mu?"

Wes said honestly: "Yes."

In the past few days, Weiss has reported the news back and forth to her and Lang Huai. An Mu knows that he is honest by nature, so he can't panic, so he can't help but believe it.However, An Mu blinked, and said again: "I heard that bears are very powerful, but they are not as powerful as tigers and leopards, right?"

Weiss didn't know why, so he wondered: "How can a leopard be compared with a bear? Even if a big worm meets a lone bear, it has to make a detour."

An Mu was speechless for a moment, she inadvertently glanced at the sky, changed color and said: "Look!"

Two goshawks flew by at a very high altitude, and Wei Siqi asked, "Does the princess want to hunt?"

An Mu said anxiously: "What do you know? Those are hawks raised in captivity. It's the best way to scout the enemy's rear! I don't have enough arm strength, who of you can shoot them down!"

Only then did Weiss come to his senses, and said, "I'll try!" This fierce man from the Jinwu Guard took the bow and set the arrow in one go, but in the end he had to give up because the goshawk was too far away.

Lang Huai just happened to come over slowly with Zhujun Tao Jun Sanqi, and said with a smile, "You want falcons? This is very difficult."

Weiss hurriedly said: "The princess said it was raised by Cong Canglanhu in captivity, so I had to try it, but it still didn't work."

Lang Huai's expression froze, he raised his head and squinted his eyes, and said, "Azhu, give it to me."

Mr. Zhu shrunk his neck first, and then said with a sneer: "How did you know that I secretly brought it?"

"Such a big burden, are you old and dim-witted?" While talking, Mr. Zhu took out the Sky Chasing Bow from the big burden on the horse's back, Lang Huai took it, and drew a three-pointed arrow.

Although she doesn't use it, but with more maintenance on weekdays, this bow is more powerful than when she first got it.Everyone held their breath, and all four of them fixed their eyes on Lang Huai.

He set the arrow and opened the bow, but within a few breaths, Lang Huai leaned back slightly, but he heard the bowstring tremble, killing two birds with one stone.

Lang Huai casually tossed the Tianzhu Bow to Mr. Zhu, coughed twice and said, "Go and see if it's dead or not. If it's not dead, make up the knife." She looked at the sun and said, "It's time to go back."

Back in the small courtyard, An Mu handed the prey to Lang Huai and said, "I'm happy today, but I won't keep anything."

Lang Huai said: "It's disrespectful, please condescend to come to the princess at night, I ordered people to cook antique soup, the princess can taste it."

After An Mu saw her majestic posture of bending the bow and shooting the eagles, all the thoughts that had dissipated were revived. He was even more eager to hear her invitation, and he accepted without restraint, and went back happily.

How did Lang Huai know what An Mu was thinking?Some sand rabbits were kept, and Weiss sent the rest to Yang Jisheng and other generals.Mr. Zhu naturally took the rabbit to the back kitchen, and Tao Jun went to get today's correspondence as a routine work, and at the same time spread Lang Huai's confession.

Princess An Mu chose her best clothes, washed her hair deliberately, tied it in a cumbersome bun on the back of her head according to their custom, and specially put on rouge, it was indeed beautiful and charming.

Lang Huai smiled and said: "The princess is so radiant, it really makes my broken yard flourish."

The speaker had no intention of listening, and An Mu blushed. He didn't talk to him like before, and sat quietly on the stool.

After tossing and tossing for a long time, Lang Huai was naturally hungry. He only thought that the princess was too, and he also sat down and said with a smile: "It's a bit cumbersome to clean up the antique soup, but Ah Zhu's men are quick, so it should be done soon."

In less than two minutes, Mr. Zhu brought a basket of vegetables, a cook behind him carried the pot, and a cook brought a small red clay stove, and they came back together.

After setting up the earthenware pot, Mr. Zhu took out a pot of cold soul burning from the basket, and said, "Are we still eating like this?"

Lang Huai smiled and said, "Naturally."

The three of them were all hungry, so they didn't wait for Tao Jun, added wine and food, and started eating.An Mu had never eaten a rabbit like this before, and he was full of praise: "Mr. Zhu, you are really amazing, how did you think of it?"

Dunhuang is located in the northwest, and the vegetables in the basket are mostly radishes, but there are few seasonal vegetables and no live fish.But Lang Huai still ate happily, and said: "I'm going to make medicine jars for you two soon, it's pretty interesting."

Halfway through eating, Tao Jun knocked on the door and came in, holding an envelope in his hand, smiling all over his face, and said, "Master, there is a letter from Chang'an, it is from Weiyang residence."

Lang Huai stopped the chopsticks immediately, took them and opened them and said, "You sit too." She turned her body and looked at the candlelight. Mingda first said that the chaos in Shuzhou might be solved, and it was Zhang Anren who came to say that he would like to go back. Yizhou persuaded to surrender, and said that she had received a bad seal and had issued an order to rebuild the system of bad people in Anxi and Tubo.There are so many things, the big and small things in Chang'an in recent days are vivid in my mind.

After turning over three pages, Lang Huai's expression of joy and approval calmed down, and he even got up to leave the table.

"Practice the sword every day, see the sword and think about the king. The phoenix is ​​still the same, the aloes are still the same, but the king is missing. Every time I think about this, the meal is boring, and I eat twice as much. Fortunately, the army will be sent before Duanyang, and the concubine will go there. There is no more separation. There is nothing else in your thoughts and thoughts, except wishing you only what you want, eternal peace and prolonging your life."

"Wife, Mingda."

Counting the time, Mingda arrived at about the end of summer and the beginning of autumn.

When Lang Huai walked to the door, the night was gradually rising, and there was just half a waning moon in the sky.

After half a year of separation, she has been thinking about that person all the time, and now she may have to break her promise.

The atmosphere in the room changed suddenly, An Mu whispered: "What happened to her? She was fine just now."

Tao Jun didn't say much, Zhu Jun seemed to be affected by Lang Huai's change of mood, and he just sighed: "I miss the girl."

girl?An Mu blinked, remembering that this was what they called Lang Huai's wife.

The time of acquaintance is not short, when did Lang Huai show a sad face?I don't know what kind of woman that girl is, so that Lang Huai cares so much.

She looked at Lang Huai's back and murmured, "You should love her very much."
