Raising a Dog is Better than Palace Fight Chapter 88
Chapter 88 Extra (3)
The golden breeze blows coolly, the geese pass by leaving behind their voices, and it’s the annual autumn hunting season again. The ministers arrived two days early and pitched their tents at the foot of the Royal Forest Garden, waiting for the emperor's arrival.
The bright yellow Luanjia reflects the bright golden light under the bright autumn sun, which is very eye-catching from a distance. The ministers and wives hurriedly gathered at the roadside and knelt down to greet him.
Emperor Wu of Zhou is now thirty-nine years old. His handsome features have left traces of time, but his increasingly terrifying aura makes him more masculine. His pair of eagle eyes are deep and unpredictable, and just a glance can make people's scalp numb. He held the queen's hand, and the two of them stepped down the imperial banquet side by side, accepting the kneeling worship of the ministers and wives.
Nine years have passed, and Meng Sangyu is nearly thirty years old, but her appearance has not changed at all. Only her eyebrows and eyes have gained a touch of charm, and her figure has become more graceful and graceful, making people unable to take their eyes away.
Emperor Wu of Zhou waved his sleeves and called everyone. Just as he was about to tell them to disperse, he heard a clear child's voice coming from the team behind him, "Father, look! Yi'er can ride a horse!"
The ministers looked up and saw the Ninth Prince Gu Huanzheng coming on horseback, holding the Eleventh Princess Gu Duanyi in his arms, followed by the Tenth Prince Gu Chenrui. The other princes never participated in hunting due to their weak health, and several princesses were married one after another.
All three of them are the sons of Empress Meng. The Ninth Prince is now twelve years old. He was personally raised by the Emperor since he was a child. His skills, abilities, and intelligence are all extraordinary. He was canonized as the Crown Prince two years ago.
The tenth prince is now ten years old. Just the opposite of his elder brother, he is very intolerant of studying. However, he has inherited the excellent genes of the queen's mother's family and is a good material for martial arts. In addition, with his natural supernatural power and straightforward personality, he is the same as his uncle. The reputation of a little bully. What's even more amazing is that he looks like neither the queen nor the emperor, but he looks exactly like Meng Guogong who is idle at home. Meng Guogong loves him so much that he wants to train him to be the next war god of the Great Zhou Dynasty. .
The eleventh princess is now five years old. She is cute and smart at a young age. Her exquisite facial features are simply a miniature version of Meng Sangyu. Emperor Wu of Zhou loved her as much as his eyes. He wished he could keep it in his pocket all the time. , Pampered like a flesh and blood.
Seeing his daughter waving to him on horseback, her little face flushed and indescribably cute, Emperor Zhou Wu's serious expression became a little unbearable, and he broke out into a gentle smile.
Gu Chenrui was the first to dismount and salute his father, the emperor and his mother, but Gu Huanzheng rode his horse directly in front of Luan Jia without any intention of saluting, which caused the ministers to look at him frequently.
The smile on Meng Sangyu's face faded, and he reminded in a low voice, "Zheng'er, come down soon."
Gu Huanzheng looked at the little pink dumpling-like figure in his arms and saw that she was tugging on his sleeves, refusing to dismount. He smiled bitterly and explained, "My son also wanted to get off, but my sister was tugging on his sleeves, and my son was afraid that he would dismount." If my sister is moved, she will fall down, so Mother Lao will send someone to take her away first."
"No, I want to show my father how heroic Yi'er is on a horse!" Gu Duanyi pouted and shook his head. He slapped his brother's hand repeatedly and asked his brother to spin two more times in front of his father, so as to show off.
Emperor Wu of Zhou couldn't hold back anymore and burst out laughing. He took a step forward and took his little daughter into his arms, pricking her delicate face with stubble. Hearing her silver bell-like laughter made his heart feel as sweet as honey. Father and daughter, you take a bite of me, and I take a bite of you, and they start to play around, which makes the ministers and married women secretly dumbfounded. It is said that the emperor loves the eleventh princess more than all the princes, and this is indeed true.
Meng Sangyu coughed helplessly and reminded the father and daughter to pay attention to the situation. Gu Huanzheng dismounted, bowed respectfully to his father, and then turned around to receive the kneels of the ministers. His majestic appearance was astonishing.
"You don't have to pay attention to so many rules when you come out to hunt, so let's break up." Emperor Wu of Zhou waved his sleeves and dismissed the ministers. He held his daughter in one hand and his beloved wife in the other and walked towards the largest tent.
There was a sound of horse hoofbeats coming from far away. Meng Guogong, Yan Junwei, and Meng Yanzhou led a group of guards to appear at the edge of the camp. It seemed that they had just arranged defense work. They hurried over after hearing that the Holy Driver had arrived. Meng's mother and her daughter-in-law did not go far. When they saw them turning around, they came over and wanted to have a good time with their daughter and grandchildren.
"Grandpa, uncle, Master Yan!" Seeing the three of them, Gu Chenrui rushed over like a cannonball, with seven big words written on his face - he finally found the organization!
The three of them dismounted and saluted. After standing up straight, Duke Meng patted his grandson on the shoulder and praised with a smile, "Not bad, you are strong again!"
Gu Chenrui raised his head and said very seriously, "Chen Rui has not dared to slack off in the past few months, and his martial arts has improved a lot. This time the headhunting tiger will definitely come back from the autumn hunt."
"Okay, you are ambitious! How about coming with us to the Southern District later to see what we have to say?" Meng Yanzhou's words made Meng Sangyu want to strangle him to death. It doesn't matter how old you are. The southern district is a wild animal area, with lions, tigers, leopards and wolves. How can such a young child go there?
She was about to refuse, but Emperor Zhou Wu secretly held her hand and signaled her not to interfere. Although the second son had no political talent, he was extremely talented in martial arts. He deliberately asked his son to study with Meng Guogong, Meng Yanzhou and Yan Junwei. The purpose was to train him to be his brother's right-hand man. When he grew up, he would take over the royal guards and secret guards. The two brothers, one bright and one dark, one civilized and one military, would be able to work together to conquer the generals. Weekly push to glory. He will never be wrong about the path his son is suitable to take.
"Uncle, I came here just for the Southern District for this hunt! Let others play with the little rabbits and foxes!" Gu Chenrui patted his small chest, which was not very strong, and was filled with satisfaction. With a proud face, he turned to look at his brother and asked expectantly, "Brother, are you going?"
"Go, why don't you go." Gu Huanzheng smiled lightly and touched his brother's head.
Meng Sangyu was worried, but he also knew that with the secret guards following him, nothing would happen to his sons. This was also a rare experience. Barely maintaining the smile on her face, she secretly pinched the man next to her. The man took her little hand and squeezed it ambiguously.
"Father, let's go." Gu Chenrui inherited the Meng family's fiery temperament and was about to go to the South District. When he looked at Meng Sangyu, he smiled flatteringly, "Mother, my son will hunt a big tiger to make a cloak for you!"
"Son, tiger skin cloaks are only worn by men!" Meng Sangyu patted his son on the head, dumbfounded.
"Then I'll make your bed!" Gu Chenrui immediately changed his mind.
Son, making a bed with tiger skin is the taste of the Mountain King, are you sure? Meng Sangyu complained in his heart, but nodded with a smile on his face and watched the group disappear into the dense forest.
Mother Meng came over with Fu Mingzhu and bowed to the emperor and empress. Seeing his grandmother and aunt, the well-behaved and quiet Gu Duanyi immediately slipped out of his father's arms and ran towards them.
Fu Mingzhu gave birth to three sons in a row. She was so covetous of the eleventh princess who looked like pink dumplings that she hurriedly opened her hands to catch her. The group chatted briefly for a while, and Meng's mother, on behalf of the accompanying wives, invited the Queen to attend a tea party a quarter of an hour later.
The Empress is a role model for the direct wives of the Zhou Dynasty and is highly respected by the wives of the Zhou Dynasty. Because all the officials in the Zhou Dynasty knew that the emperor loved his wife as much as she loved her. If you want to win the emperor's favor, the first thing you need to do is to give your legitimate wife enough respect. Therefore, the status of the direct wife of the Great Zhou Dynasty's wife has been unprecedentedly improved, which made the old feudal lords who missed this good time sigh and secretly regret why they were not born thirty years later and also benefited from the glory of the empress.
Meng Sangyu was about to nod in agreement, but Emperor Wu of Zhou squeezed her hand and said, "There are many silver foxes roaming in the West District. I will go and see them later and hunt a few for you to make cloaks." When he finished speaking, he seemed to be casual. mentioned, "Han Changping and his sister were accompanying him."
Han Changping has now replaced Meng's father Jianwei as General and is a popular figure around Emperor Wu of Zhou. He was originally the concubine of the Yongping Marquis Mansion. In his early years, he was not tolerated by his legitimate mother, so he took his half-sister to start his own business. He was rescued by Emperor Wu of Zhou during his most difficult time. His loyalty to Emperor Wu of Zhou is self-evident. His sister has been influenced by her since she was a child, and she is also a womanly figure. She has just grown hair now and is said to be quite good-looking.
As for why Meng Sangyu heard about it, it was naturally due to the help of someone who was willing to help. Knowing that this woman most likely missed her husband, Meng Sangyu immediately retracted the steps he took out, declined Meng's mother and sister-in-law, and said to Emperor Wu of Zhou, "I'll go with you."
Emperor Wu of Zhou lowered his eyes and smiled secretly. He touched his daughter's head and said warmly to Mother Meng, "Yi'er, please ask Madam to take care of her."
Mother Meng quickly waved her hand and said yes, and took Gu Duanyi to the tea party. Gu Duanyi liked her grandmother very much. She was neither noisy nor fussy, and waved obediently to her father, emperor and mother.
After settling their daughter, the two returned to camp, changed into hunting clothes, and walked hand in hand toward the waiting horse team in the open space.
"Wei Chen (Chen Daughter) has met the Emperor, the Queen." The Han family brothers and sisters stood at the forefront, leading everyone to half kneel in salute. It is worth noting that Miss Han practices male etiquette, and coupled with a fiery red hunting suit, she is really heroic and eye-catching.
Meng Sangyu and Emperor Wu of Zhou were both wearing dark hunting attire, with only the auspicious patterns of dragons and phoenixes outlined with silver thread on the hems and cuffs. One of them was gorgeous and the other was extremely handsome. Standing together, they were a match made in heaven. .
Seeing his sister staring at the emperor and empress, Han Changping hurriedly pulled her sleeves. Miss Han quickly came to her senses, lowered her eyes and smiled sadly, but quickly cheered up again.
The attentive Fusangyu got on the horse. After she sat firmly, Emperor Wu of Zhou got on his horse and waved, "Let's go!"
The group of people agreed loudly and disappeared into the dense forest at lightning speed.
Even though he was wandering around in the forest, he didn't see any silver fox. Emperor Wu of Zhou never made a move. Meng Sangyu was born as a general and was very good at riding and shooting. After galloping for a while, he became interested. He caught a glimpse of a fat gray rabbit in the grass and untied his bow. Get ready to take aim. Unexpectedly, an arrow shot out one step ahead of her, pinning the gray rabbit's hind legs to the ground.
Meng Sangyu looked back, only to see Miss Han blushing and saying weakly, "I didn't know that the Queen also fell in love with it, so I accidentally shot it first. If the Queen does not give up, I am willing to give the prey to the Queen." "
Is this a show off or a provocation? Meng Sangyu waved his hand and said softly, "No, first come, first served."
Miss Han smiled sweetly and said, "Thank you, Madam." She was as young as a flower, and her smile was youthful and invincible, making it difficult for people to feel bad.
Emperor Wu of Zhou seemed unaware of the turbulent undercurrent between the two of them, and kept on moving forward, but Han Changping was in a cold sweat for his sister. The Queen is not so easy to offend, my sister is too reckless.
In the next half hour, Miss Han snatched away several of Meng Sangyu's prey. However, her shots were like lightning and her archery skills were so good that even Meng Sangyu, who had eyes higher than his head, had to secretly scream "good". Emperor Wu of Zhou also seemed to be aroused by Miss Han. He looked at her meaningfully several times on the way, making her heart beat fast.
The group of people walked to the stream. As soon as they hid themselves and prepared to hunt the animals that came to drink water, they saw a silver lightning flash across and stop behind a big rock. It took them a long time to poke their heads out and walk out cautiously. This is a silver fox, its shiny and smooth fur shines in the sunlight.
Emperor Wu of Zhou's dark eyes were finally lit up. He took off the bow on his back and took aim with an arrow. A whizzing sound broke through the air. Even though the silver fox moved as fast as lightning, he could not escape the attack of the two arrows. His limbs twitched and he fell to the ground. An arrow hit his hind legs and neck each. The clear stream was covered with blood. stained red.
Emperor Wu of Zhou walked to the stream and saw the mark on the other arrow. He turned to look at Miss Han. Miss Han's cheeks turned red and she cupped her hands and said, "I was just trying to make a scarf. When I saw how tight the silver fox was, I couldn't help but take action. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Her almond-shaped eyes were bright, full of expectation and joy, and her already delicate face was gilded with a layer of gold against the backdrop of the autumn sun, making it look both illusory and real. Girls of this age have an inexplicable attraction to mature men that is irresistible.
If it had been anyone else, they would have given up Silver Fox, but she happened to meet Emperor Wu of Zhou. He seemed to be in love with the woman, but in fact he was particularly disgusted by her ambitious eyes. Emperor Zhou Wu's dark eyes were covered with haze, and he said in a deep voice, "The queen just needs a silver fox cloak to put away the prey."
The guard behind him agreed and tied the silver fox to his horse.
Emperor Zhou Wu flew on his horse and changed positions with Sang Yu, but he didn't even look at Miss Han who was crying and embarrassed. Han Changping shook his head and was about to give his sister a few words of advice when he saw that she suddenly cheered up again and pursued her relentlessly.
Meng Sangyu had always wanted to test his own man. Seeing that he was not seduced by women, he felt happy and began to draw his bow and shoot arrows along the way, sweeping across the Western District. Her archery skills were personally passed down by Duke Meng, and it would be no exaggeration to say that she could pierce the Yangtze River at a hundred steps. This shocked Miss Han and made her even more interested in comparison.
However, how can Meng Sangyu leave any room for suppression if he intends to do so? The situation of the two people immediately turned upside down. She would shoot whatever Miss Han liked, and she would always be the first to get there, making Miss Han lose face.
Only then did Miss Han realize that it had been the Queen who had given way to her before, while she was like a clown, and she didn't know how many jokes she had been made by others.
After all, she is a fifteen-year-old girl, and her mental endurance is still very weak. The more she thought about it, the sadder she became. Her eyes were red and tears were hanging from the corners of her eyes. She looked so miserable. Han Changping was heartbroken and couldn't be comforted by the presence of the emperor, so he could only sigh secretly.
"Okay, it's enough to give him a lesson." Emperor Wu of Zhou rode his horse to Sang Yu and persuaded him in a low voice. After all, she is her beloved sister, so she must save some face.
"She wants to steal a man from me, do I have to let her do it?" Meng Sangyu looked at him sideways, her red lips slightly opened, her breath was blue, and her raised eyebrows revealed an evil and unruly air, like a fairy in the forest. people.
Emperor Zhou Wu's lower abdomen felt hot and he wished he could hold her in his arms and rub her. His heart was so heated by her declaration that he burst into laughter at an inappropriate time.
Miss Han mistakenly thought that the emperor was laughing at her, her face turned from red to purple, and tears fell down in large drops.
The man's smile was simple and pure, with a ray of sunlight shining down, making him as handsome as a god. Meng Sangyu was instantly bewitched. She stared blankly for a long time before she finally came to her senses. She pinched his arm and pretended to be angry, "Don't laugh like that in the future. It attracts bees and butterflies!"
The man laughed louder, unable to hold back the heat in his chest any longer. With a stretch of his long arms, he scooped the woman into his arms, rode his horse and ran towards the depths of the dense forest, saying loudly, "You guys just wait where you are, I'll go with the queen." Come."
There was a slight sound of breaking the air in the jungle, and the hidden guards quickly followed. Han Changping waved his hand and motioned for everyone to sit down and wait. As for why the emperor and the queen left alone? The answer is self-evident.
"Can you give up this time? The relationship between the Emperor and the Queen is not something you can interfere with!" Pulling his sister aside, Han Changping said seriously. My sister has a stubborn personality, and if she is not allowed to experience it for herself, she will never know how hopeless her thoughts are.
Miss Han collapsed on the ground, burying her face in her knees and crying. It turns out that there is true single-minded and loyal love in this world, but it doesn't belong to you. If you take it away from yourself, this relationship will lose its original preciousness and become a cheap commodity that can be easily obtained. It would be better to watch it from a distance!
She thought she understood something.
