Chapter 194 Back
After Zhou Zeyan fired the signal flare, a line of guards quickly appeared at the location where Princess Lejia and the other two were, and helped to bring the tiger's body back.
Princess Lejia finally recovered some strength and was able to ride a horse and slowly follow everyone back.
Zhou Ying and Zhou Zeyan both slowed down and stayed by Princess Lejia's side.
"That..." Princess Lejia suddenly looked at Zhou Zeyan, "Thank you for coming with Aying to save me."
She had thanked Ah Ying many times, but now she remembered that she had not thanked another lifesaver. After all, Zhou Zeyan also contributed to the killing of the tiger.
In the past, she and Zhou Zeyan had almost no interactions, and the few times they met were all because of Zheng Zheng and A Ying. She didn't expect that this time he would risk his life with A Ying to find her.
Woohoo, I'm so touched. It turns out that Zheng Zheng's family are all good people.
She would never say that Zhou Zeyan was like a big fool again.
Zhou Zeyan looked at Princess Lejia's pale face and suddenly smiled, revealing a row of big white teeth.
The sunlight passed through the layers of branches and leaves, casting a mottled light and shadow on the ground, sprinkling on Zhou Zeyan's face, making his smile inexplicably gentler.
"You are welcome, Princess. You and I are in the same team, so it is only natural for me to come to you."
Zhou Zeyan said, and looked at Zhou Ying with pride: "Besides, I only shot two arrows when shooting the tiger just now, the others were all shot by my sister."
Princess Lejia looked at Zhou Ying with starry eyes again: "Sure enough, my Aying is the most powerful."
The Bodhisattva really treated her well. Not only did he give her a Zheng Zheng, but he also gave her an A Ying.
It's so happy!!!
Zhou Ying felt uncomfortable facing the two men's admiring gazes.
"Let's go back quickly. They should be worried."
…
This year's hunting competition was not as peaceful as previous years and ended early.
Many people were waiting outside the tent, anxiously awaiting the return of those who had participated in the hunt.
Shen Zhaonian, his daughter and his two children, the Zhou family, Song Ye and Wen Xinhou's family were also in the crowd.
The Shen brothers, Jiang Cheng and Xue Cong rode back to the camp on horseback. Each of them brought back a lot of prey, and it was obvious that they had a good harvest.
As soon as they saw Shen Keting and his companions coming back, everyone in the Shen family and the Zhou family rushed over.
Xue Cong and Wen Xinhou's family also came forward, each with a worried look on their face.
Chen Huazheng asked anxiously: "Brother, have you seen Aning, Cousin Ying and Cousin Yan?"
For some reason, her eyelids kept twitching and she couldn't even read the storybook.
Not long after, people were sent back by the guards one after another, with injuries of varying degrees on their bodies.
Chen Huazheng could no longer sit still. After asking around, she found out that a tiger suddenly appeared when everyone was hunting.
The tiger's original target was the deer, but when it saw the hunters, it changed its target and injured several people.
At the critical moment, the Zhou siblings appeared and shot the tiger, causing it to run away.
Otherwise, those who were sent back would not just have minor injuries.
If things go wrong, someone might even die.
Originally, after the tiger injured someone, guards went into the woods in batches to call back the people who participated in the hunt.
But there are still some people who haven't returned yet. Most of them have gone deep into the forest chasing prey and are not aware of the news yet.
Of course there are exceptions. Some people who came back said they saw Zhou Ying and Zhou Zeyan, but they went back to look for Princess Le Jia who had been lost.
Shen Keting pulled the reins and dismounted.
The others also stopped and dismounted.
Chen Keting: "We are not in the same area. I heard that the hunting competition ended early and came back. I didn't see them along the way."
Shen Kesi: "Cousin Ying and the others haven't come back yet?"
Chen Huazheng shook her head: "Not yet, we have been waiting here. His Majesty also sent guards to look for them, but they haven't been seen yet."
Everyone looked worried. Grand Tutor Zhou, Old Madam Zhou, and Princess Yi'an were still being kept in the dark, and the younger generations did not dare to let them know about this.
Chen Keting pondered for a moment and said, "Why don't I go look for it too?"
Shen Kesi and the others also said, "Yes, maybe we can find them if we go back now."
Zhou Chengxuan and Zhou Chengan both frowned at the same time. As fathers, they were naturally worried about their children, but they could not let their nephews take risks at this time.
Besides, His Majesty has already sent guards to search the woods, so there might be news soon.
Zhou Chengxuan was about to say something when he suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves.
Someone in the crowd who had been paying attention to the situation shouted, "They're back, they're back!! They're back!!"
When everyone looked carefully, they saw that it was Zhou Ying and the other two who had returned with the guards.
There were guards behind who pulled back the giant tiger's corpse in a carriage, which was horrifying to watch.
Shen Huazheng was delighted and was about to step forward when suddenly three figures rushed towards Princess Lejia.
She was slightly stunned, then smiled.
It’s great that Aning also has a family who cares about her.
With red eyes, Liang rushed forward and hugged Princess Lejia.
"Aning, you scared your mother to death. Don't go to those dangerous places again."
Wen Xinhou and Jiang Xi also stood aside and watched the mother and daughter, feeling a sense of fear in their hearts.
After seeing the corpse of the giant tiger, they really couldn't imagine what would have happened to Princess Lejia if Zhou Ying and Zhou Zeyan had not returned to find her.
I couldn't even imagine what would happen to Princess Yi'an if something happened to Princess Lejia during this hunting trip.
Princess Lejia's eyes also turned red: "Don't worry, mother. I'm back safe and sound, right?"
Wen Xinhou's eyes were already somewhat moist: "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."
