After having dinner in the evening, Yin and Qingyan strolled around the camp, followed by a large number of guards. The person behind the scenes could not be found. The princes were more guarded, and there were even more guards patrolling Kangxi's tent.
Qingyan tugged at Yin's sleeve, her large, watery eyes warily scanning her surroundings.
"Little darling, don't worry so much!" Yin said with a wry smile, Qingyan was frightened by what happened that afternoon.
After a fierce battle, the Imperial Guards and the New Army have improved their combat effectiveness.
"Sisi, how many days are we going to stay here?" Qingyan felt that the depths of the dense forest were always gloomy and wanted to return to a familiar place as soon as possible.
Pfft!
Yin laughed. Qingyan probably wasn't used to days without sunlight. He himself had needed time to adjust after entering the dense forest, let alone Qingyan.
"You must stay for at least five days!" Yin reassured Qingyan, "Don't let fear prevent you from sleeping!"
After dinner, Qingyan wanted to go out for a walk. Yin knew that Qingyan was afraid and dared not go forward.
"Fourth Prince, we're hunting here, who's in charge of the imperial tent?" Qingyan noticed that Yinzhi hadn't come along, probably because Kangxi had left him in the camp.
"My father-in-law and Yin Jitai have both come out, so things should be arranged. My third brother has been confined to his quarters by Father Emperor." It was definitely a good thing that Yin Zhi didn't come. Dong Eshi's attitude infuriated him, and for a moment he even wanted to teach her a lesson.
Qingyan continued to follow Yinliuda with a smile. The guards looked at the two figures with some complaints, but more envy.
It's common to see princes together, but it's rare to see a couple as inseparable as the Fourth Prince and his wife.
"Fourth Prince, let's go back." Qingyan felt a little uneasy, as the servants around them were all staring intently at the royal couple.
The private lives of princes and their primary wives are very mysterious. They continue to live according to their own ideas, disregarding the opinions of outsiders.
Back in her tent, Qingyan looked at the small tent and couldn't help but miss the one on the grassland.
"It'll do, at least there's a bed!" Yin was quite satisfied. When camping outside, he didn't have many requirements for the bed.
Qingyan pouted her little mouth, twisted her little body and lay on the bed looking at the little storybooks that had been brought to her. Many of these storybooks were specially collected by Yin for Qingyan.
At midnight, the camp fell silent. Some of the guards were quite sleepy. After the new army took over from the Imperial Guard, the new army began to stand guard in the camp with their new weapons.
Feiyanggu stood outside, watching Saito and Eshuo with bloodshot eyes, not daring to relax for a moment.
"Father, will there still be chaos?" Seto didn't believe it. Most of the men in black that afternoon had been killed, and those who weren't were being held hostage.
Why would Emperor Kangxi secretly issue an imperial edict ordering everyone to be vigilant?
Fei Yanggu sighed; the men in black must be after something.
Their focused attention was on Yin and Qingyan, which suggested that something fishy was going on.
"Boss, you need to spend more time with Qingyan lately, and don't let her be alone!" Fei Yanggu quickly warned Saito.
Those people were probably after the gyrfalcons. The gyrfalcons trained by Qingyan had been seen by many grassland leaders. If the men in black were sent by Yuqing Palace and the grassland leaders, then things would be complicated.
Seto stared at Feiyangu in astonishment...
"Because of lightning?" Eshuo asked.
Fei Yanggu nodded. Gyrfalcons are not only difficult to find, but also difficult to tame. Generally, once a gyrfalcon is captured, it will undergo a long period of training before it can actually hunt.
Animal trainers must endure many hardships to achieve a state of spiritual connection with their eagles.
In just a few days, Qingyan managed to make the thunder and lightning so obedient that even Emperor Kangxi exclaimed in amazement.
In addition, under Lei Dian's leadership, the gyrfalcon that originally belonged to Consort Tong also joined Qing Yan's camp and was returned to Qing Yan by Emperor Kangxi.
"Lightning and thunder?" Saito understood. Kangxi seemed to be entrusting Qingyan with the training of lightning, but in reality, he was also giving Qingyan a test.
If both of these birds are tamed, then when gyrfalcons appear in the future, Emperor Kangxi will remember Qingyan.
"His Majesty wants to train more gyrfalcons. When war breaks out, these gyrfalcons will bring considerable benefits to the army." Fei Yanggu expressed skepticism about Lei Dian's search for Yin. Seeing is believing!
The three members of the Fei Yanggu family recalled the scene of the hunt, and Lei Dian clearly understood Yin's words.
"Let's find a few gyrfalcons for Qingyan, and have Qingyan train a few for the family. When we go to war, they can deliver messages for us. That would be a good idea," Saito asked obsequiously.
Now, when the group goes to war, they rely on carrier pigeons from their homes to communicate, but these pigeons are often shot down by the enemy. If they didn't always communicate in cryptic language, a lot of information might have been leaked.
Fei Yanggu pondered. Saito's idea was excellent. Not to mention gyrfalcons, even ordinary eagles are rare. If they wanted to fulfill this wish, they would probably have to breed Qingyan's lightning and thunder.
"You don't need to even think about the offspring of Thunder and Lightning; His Majesty has been keeping an eye on them for a long time!" Fei Yanggu directly thwarted his two sons' plans.
The two sighed. Their hopes had been dashed. They had finally managed to have a son for Mo Yan, and now it had turned out like this.
When Qingyan woke up in the early morning, she found that the candles were still lit inside the tent, and there was no sunlight outside, which made her very curious.
Qingyan changed into casual clothes and quietly climbed out of bed from the inside. Yin was still fast asleep on the outside of the bed. She took a few steps and leaned out the window to look outside.
The towering trees blocked the sunlight, and the campfire outside the tent never went out, but the firewood piled up to the side had dwindled considerably.
Throughout the night, whenever she slept lightly, she could hear the clanging of armor outside, which worried her greatly, as the sound of the new army's armor was indeed different from that of the Imperial Guard.
"Little darling, why aren't you sleeping?" Yin Yi turned over and found the bed inside empty. He opened his eyes and saw Qing Yan's pink figure appear at the window. Her plain face was looking outside.
"No, the sky outside is just like evening!" Qingyan said quickly, as if she had discovered something amazing.
Ugh!
Yin was speechless. With so many trees here, the sunlight definitely couldn't get through.
“Of course, you won’t see much sunlight during the days you’re hunting here.” Yin nodded, and after he got up, Qingyan helped him put on his everyday clothes.
In the inner chamber, Qingyan helped Yin change into his everyday clothes and court clothes. In front of the servants, the two of them still maintained a very proper demeanor.
Qingyan, with his flat-mouthed mouth, believes that even in a sunless, dense forest, one can surely find many treasures.
"There will be ginseng!" Qingyan's shoulders lit up at the mention of ginseng; much of her ginseng had already been used up. (To be continued. If you like this work, please vote for it on Qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
