"Haha, Lao Ji, I will definitely beat you today!"
General Chen was the first to draw his bow and shoot an arrow, stopping a rabbit running in the grass and harvesting his first prey of the day.
"Hmph, just watch!"
General Ji was not willing to be outdone. He aimed at the pheasants and rabbits in the grass on the other side and shot two arrows directly!
Both arrows hit the prey, and the guards who were chasing after them and picking up the prey picked up a rabbit and a pheasant.
General Ji raised an eyebrow at General Chen standing beside him: "Hehehe~ Old Chen, thank you for letting me go, thank you for letting me go!"
General Chen pursed his lips, and the rabbit that the guard brought in front of him suddenly didn't taste good anymore.
"Hmph, just wait!"
General Chen snorted, his damn desire to win suddenly aroused, and he immediately whipped his horse and headed towards the mountains.
"Hey, Lao Chen, wait for me!"
General Ji shouted loudly, and the next moment he spurred his horse to chase after him.
Some people chose to follow General Ji deeper into the forest, while others chose to look for prey around.
Opportunities and dangers coexist in the deep mountains. Their martial arts skills are not as good as those of the generals, so they dare not take risks easily for fear of causing trouble to others.
Whoosh——
Uldroma aimed at a hare and easily took it down.
"Zhuoya is amazing!"
"This rabbit is big and fat, the roasted meat will definitely be delicious and tender!"
Praise after praise came to Wuerzhuoma. She chuckled and said, "It's just a rabbit. I heard venison is delicious. I'll hunt a deer later!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the people around him exclaimed and pointed their fingers forward.
"Zhuoma, look!"
Everyone looked in the direction the man pointed and saw two long horns sticking out from the bushes in front of them. If it wasn't a sika deer, what else could it be?
Uerzhuoma immediately pulled the bowstring and released the arrow, shooting towards the antlers of the sika deer in front of him under the gaze of everyone!
The sika deer, which was originally nestling on the ground, got up and fled immediately after sensing the danger. The arrow feather instantly missed the air and embedded itself into the bark.
Ulzhuoma pursed her lips, drew her bow and shot the arrow again, but under the expectant gaze of everyone, she missed again.
The deer's fleeing speed increased instantly, and Uerzhuoma shot several arrows in succession but each time he missed the target by a little bit.
The sika deer was about to escape from everyone's sight and hide in the mountains.
Whoosh whoosh——
Three sharp arrows broke through the air and instantly swept towards the fleeing sika deer in front!
Everyone subconsciously held their breath, following the three arrows that appeared out of thin air, and finally watched the sika deer in the distance fall to the ground with a thud!
Is this even possible?!
Everyone widened their eyes and turned their heads sharply to look in the direction where the arrow came from.
Huyan Ji and Jiang Jingyu were seen sitting on horseback. Jiang Jingyu's hands were still in the posture of drawing the bow, while Huyan Ji was holding her hands tightly behind her back.
The two of them were pressed close together, with their faces very close to each other.
"Meet the Khan, Khatun!"
After everyone came to their senses, they hurriedly bowed to the two men on horseback.
Hu Yanji put away his longbow and said calmly, "No need to be polite, just continue."
"Look, I got it!"
Jiang Jingyu turned her head excitedly and looked at him, her eyes shining like stars.
Hu Yanji raised the corner of his mouth: "This one is too small, I'll take you to shoot a bigger one."
After saying this, he clamped his legs under the horse's belly, held the longbow in one hand, pulled the reins with the other, and continued to go deep into the forest with Jiang Jingyu.
As soon as the two men left, guards came over with the prey they had just shot.
Only then did everyone realize that all three arrows had hit their target. One arrow hit a sika deer, and the other two hit two hares.
The two hares were plump and looked even fatter than the one shot by Uerzhuoma.
"Khan is indeed the bravest warrior in Mobei. His arrows never miss their target!"
The man looked at the prey in the guard's hands with pride, while the woman's focus was more peculiar.
"Am I seeing things right? Those three arrows were shot by the Khan while holding Khatun's hand?"
"You're not mistaken. Our Khan and Khatun seem to have a very good relationship!"
"Hehe, Khan is so cute and Dunjiao is so nice, they are really a match made in heaven!"
These envious words were extremely harsh to Uldroma's ears.
She narrowed her eyes, her face frighteningly gloomy.
Looking at the two people riding the same horse in front of her, Wuerzhuoma knew that getting rid of Jiang Jingyu was urgent!
Her eyes flickered slightly, and a plan came to her mind.
"drive!"
A sharp shout was heard, and Uldroma rode alone on his horse and galloped in one direction.
"Hey, Zhuoma, where are you going?"
One of the women exclaimed when she saw Uerzhuoma's departing back.
"Let's go and take a look. It might be dangerous for Zhuoma to leave alone!"
…
Uldroma galloped all the way and came to a tree relying on the memory in his mind.
She looked up at the red fruits hanging on the tree and flew over to pick one.
Uerzhuoma sat back on the horse with the fruit in her hand. She stared at the fruit carefully and smiled grimly after confirming that it was the fruit she was looking for.
With this nutmeg, she will definitely ruin Princess Ningde's reputation!
"Zhuoma, Zhuoma, where are you?"
A familiar voice came from behind her. Uldroma hurriedly stuffed the nutmeg into her arms and rode towards the crowd as if nothing had happened.
She looked at everyone in surprise: "Why did you follow me?"
"We were worried about you being alone, so we followed you here. Why did you come here, Zhuoma?"
The man looked around as he spoke, but didn't see any sign of prey.
Wuerzhuoma explained calmly, "I heard my father say there was a forest with plenty of game, and I thought it was in this direction. Now it seems I was wrong."
The man nodded without any doubt: "Then let's go look somewhere else."
The days passed quickly as everyone gathered together and chatted. In the blink of an eye, the sun had set and it was time for everyone to pack up and return.
Huyan Ji and Jiang Jingyu returned first, and when they slowed down and arrived at the Royal Forest, everyone also rushed over.
Several bonfires have been lit, and tables and cushions have been placed around them.
The table was filled with wine jars and bowls, as well as various fruits and side dishes. Everything was ready, except for the welcome banquet for everyone.
The prey was carried to the royal forest by the guards. Seeing this, General Chen suddenly stood up and waved to General Ji.
"Old Ji, let's go, let's count who has caught the most prey today!"
General Chen and General Ji left their seats together and walked towards the prey carried by the guards. The others looked at each other and stood up and ran forward to join in the fun.
The seats that were originally full became empty in an instant.
Ulzhuoma's eyes lit up, and she stood up and pretended to walk forward.
She took out the nutmeg from her sleeve, peeled the shell, and slowly walked to Jiang Jingyu's seat.
She glanced around warily, and seeing no one looking in her direction, she hurriedly sprinkled the nutmeg in her hand into the snack...
