Chapter 60 Hunting with My Husband
Time flies, and it’s the end of the month in a blink of an eye.
"Young Master, battle report from the front line!" Xiao Nanxing brought the latest battle report from Northern Frontier.
Xie Lingxi unfolded the letter box——
[In the battle of Pigeon Mountain, General Chen Meng fought a duel with the enemy army of the Northern Desert, but was defeated by the Northern Desert General Barhu. He was seriously injured and fell off his horse, and urgently called for a retreat. The morale of our army dropped greatly, and they fled without a fight.]
[Bei Mo was aggressively challenging them, but no one dared to fight for three days.]
Xie Lingxi finished reading the battle report and frowned slightly.
Xiao Nanxing sighed, "The prince's old illness relapsed, and he is commanding from the rear. The front line is handed over to General Chen, but... that Barhu is known as the best warrior in the northern desert, and no one can defeat him. The current situation is not favorable to us..."
Xie Lingxi tapped the edge of the table with his index finger, "Bring the map here—"
The guards deftly moved the various objects scattered on the table and laid out a huge map of the battle in the northern border hidden in the secret compartment.
The map is densely marked with circles of various colors.
Xie Lingxi's sight fell on Pigeon Mountain, which was a very important pass. If this place was breached, the terrain behind it would be difficult for our army to stop it...
Xie Lingxi stared at the Pigeon Mountain for a long time, and his frown suddenly relaxed. He picked up the battle report and threw it into the three-legged beast-faced incense burner filled with fragrant mist.
If he guessed correctly, this strategy was to show weakness to the enemy and paralyze the enemy.
General Chen should be fine.
Otherwise, if Dove Mountain was lost, his father would not be able to sit in the rear and command the troops with peace of mind, but would have to go to the front line despite being sick.
"Young Master, the Crown Princess wants to see you." Jingzhe came in to report.
Xie Lingxi glanced at the map on the table, and Xiao Nanxing immediately put the map away neatly. The guards put the novel toys that had just been moved away back on the table.
There is a box of colorful stones, two pots of exotic flowers and plants, an exquisite gold-painted lantern with a picture of a lady, and a colorful koi kept in a celadon fish tank.
These are the items presented to the prince for his enjoyment from various places today.
The dandies in Beijing are often interested in stone lanterns, antique treasures, flowers, birds, insects and fish.
At first glance, it looks like a desk suitable for a dandy boy.
"Let her in." Xie Lingxi picked up a colored stone and played with it in his hand.
Jiang Rong was wearing a snow-white, double-breasted, narrow-sleeved top and a crimson, gold-embroidered horse-faced skirt. She walked briskly, her eyebrows slightly curved:
"Husband, the weather is fine today, which is very suitable for hunting. Can you take Rong'er with you to go hunting in the suburbs?"
After a pause, he continued, "Chen Guangzong and his men have been in the Northern Palace for nearly a month. Jingzhe said that the training has yielded some results. It's a good opportunity to take them out for some training. Do you think it's okay, husband?"
Xie Lingxi glanced at her dress and asked, "Can you ride a horse?"
Narrow sleeves and pleated skirts are the attire for women's cycling.
"Ah... I don't know how!" Jiang Rong's little brain suddenly brightened up, and he pulled his sleeve and shook it:
"I heard from my grandmother that my husband is very good at playing polo. Can you teach me how to ride a horse..."
At this moment, Jiang Rong, who came from a scholarly family, did not know how to ride a horse.
She learned to ride a horse after the Xie family army was defeated.
The old concubine helped her rebuild the Xie family army. She followed her grandmother, learned horse riding and archery, and learned how to train soldiers...
After the old prince passed away, the huge Beiwang Mansion was left with only two women to support it.
Jiang Rong had to learn about these military matters that she knew nothing about before.
Of course, Jiang Rong could also find a reason at this time and say that she had learned to ride a horse when she was in the boudoir.
but……
I'm going to pretend that I don't know how to get close to my husband!
Xie Lingxi thought Jiang Rong was a little weird, but logically speaking, she shouldn't be like that.
"good."
…
Early summer, Qingsong Mountain.
The chirping of cicadas makes the forest even quieter, and the singing of birds makes the mountain even more secluded.
Chen Guangzong looked at the vast forest in front of him and felt so excited that he wanted to cry.
He was locked up in the other courtyard for more than twenty days, and every day he was either training or doing extra training. He was almost tortured to death.
He just wanted to escape.
But with high walls on all sides and patrolled by black-clad guards, there was no hope for him to escape...
Unexpectedly, God was merciful and allowed him to escape from that horrible cage.
Hahaha!
From today on, I, Young Master Chen, will let the birds fly freely in the mountains...
"Brother Chen, where are you going? The Crown Princess has instructed that each of us should hunt at least one prey. How can we find prey if we go to the outskirts?" Zhang Shan was puzzled.
Li Si nodded and said, "Yes, yes! Those prey are all very smart and are hiding inside... We need to go deeper..."
"You two idiots!" Chen Guangzong patted their heads in frustration.
"Do you still want to continue living this miserable life?"
Zhang San, Li Si and other playboys all shook their heads.
"Why don't you hurry and run! Now that we are out, let's go back to our homes and find our own mothers. I don't believe she can come to my house to find me. My mother will never let her take me away!" Chen Guangzong raised his chest, his face full of joy that he was about to escape.
"Yes, Brother Chen is right, why don't we run away?"
"Run, run, run! From now on, I will avoid the Northern Palace whenever I see it!"
The group of playboys suddenly realized what was going on and followed Chen Guangzong in a 100-meter sprint, often rushing to the periphery.
soon.
Everyone ran to the outskirts of Qingsong Mountain.
But at the end of the road, I saw a scary yet familiar figure.
In the distance, under a large pine tree, Jiang Rong was sitting leisurely drinking tea. Behind her followed the murderous black-clad guards, each holding a bow and arrow, pointing at them.
"Where are you going?" Jiang Rong glanced at the panting playboys and smiled.
The group of playboys were so frightened that their legs were trembling, shaking into a ball, with despair on their faces, as if they had lost their parents: Woo woo woo, what kind of suffering is this in life.
Only Chen Guangzong stiffened his neck, took a step forward, and tried to maintain his dignity as the leader. "I led them to run away. It has nothing to do with them! Everyone has their own responsibility! Come to me if you want to do anything!"
Jiang Rong's eyes fell on him and heeded his advice, "Okay. Bring the water jar."
The next moment, Chen Guangzong's knees had their own ideas and he fell to the ground with a thud.
Chen Guangzong turned pale, resolutely bowed to the evil forces, and cried pitifully:
“Princess, I was wrong! I just missed my mother and I wanted to go back to see her! Woohoo, I can’t show filial piety to my mother, I… I am unfilial, woohoo…”
"Yes, yes, I miss my mom too!"
"I miss my dad!"
A group of playboys echoed.
"It's human nature to miss your parents. You haven't been home for a long time. When you have completed your studies, I will definitely give you a holiday and let you go back." Jiang Rong smiled faintly:
"It's a good thing that you want to be filial to your parents. I won't punish you this time."
Chen Guangzong and others all breathed a sigh of relief.
That was a close call!
Finally I got through it!
"But I saw that you just ran faster than usual during training." Jiang Rong changed the subject and said slowly, "It seems that you haven't been doing your best on weekdays."
"Emerald, read."
Feicui immediately took over the conversation loudly, "The new rules of the Ceremonial Guard Department are that if you cheat during training, the punishment will be doubled."
All the dudes: Woohoo! It’s unfair! We really tried our best!
When escaping, he ran faster than usual, but...it's not our fault.
Woohoo! I am so wronged!
