Chapter 319: Autumn Hunting



Liu Sheng gave him a complete set of riding and archery equipment. He liked it very much. He no longer climbed over the wall to sneak out to play every day, but followed the teacher who taught riding and archery to practice archery.

After half a month of hard study and practice, he finally achieved success.

It happened that the autumn hunting season had just begun this year, and he begged his father for a long time before his father finally agreed to take him along.

This was the first time he had left the palace in more than ten years, and the first time he had gone on an autumn hunt with his father. Everything he saw was new to him.

It turned out that there were so many people outside the palace, it turned out that the sky outside was so blue, and it turned out that the people looked rougher than he had imagined.

He had several younger brothers, but they were all very young, so they did not participate in hunting. He was the only prince who went to the hunting ground.

His father assigned several royal guards to protect him.

Following the order from the emperor, everyone began to gallop towards the hunting ground, wanting to come out on top and win the emperor's favor.

But he noticed that Liu Sheng was not in a good mood and was riding his horse, following slowly behind.

He is the new top scholar and is in the emperor's favor. Shouldn't he be accompanying his father at this time?

Nangong Fusang slowed down and waited for him: "Master Liu, you are not going hunting?"

Liu Sheng smiled and saluted him: "I am a civil servant, I am not good at riding and shooting, so I won't embarrass myself."

"It's okay, just follow me and I'll catch some prey for you." Nangong Fusang said generously.

After all, if you go out hunting and come back empty-handed, people will probably gossip about you.

Hearing this, Liu Sheng smiled and said, "Thank you very much, Your Highness."

Nangong Fusang didn't think much about it and rode forward on his horse, while Liu Sheng followed slowly behind him.

The others followed the emperor into the depths of the woods, and when they came over, the surroundings were quite quiet.

After walking for a while, a red date horse came out from the side road, and sitting on it was a handsome, upright and dignified man.

In front of the man sat a little kid, who said in a soft voice, "Dad, if we walk so slowly, can we catch a little rabbit?"

"And the fawn?"

"Yes."

"What about the little tiger?"

"Haha, of course. Whatever my Wan'er wants, Daddy can get it for you."

"I know that my father is the most powerful father in the world."

The little kid raised his arms and cheered with joy.

The two, one big and one small, continued walking forward, seemingly not noticing Liu Sheng and Nangong Fusang beside them.

Just then, someone suddenly caught up with us.

"Master, His Majesty is looking for you."

The Prime Minister put away his smile and said to the little girl, "Wan'er, wait for daddy here. Daddy will be back soon."

She was not annoyed, and said with a smile: "Well, Dad, you go. Wan'er will be good and not go anywhere. Wait for Dad to come back and catch a little tiger for Wan'er."

Xiangguo was amused by her and said, "Okay, Dad will catch a little tiger for my Wan'er when he comes back."

After that, he handed the person over to the person who came to look for him: "Lin Xiao, take care of Wan'er, I'll be back soon."

"Yes, Master." Lin Xiao took the young lady, and the two of them sat on the horse's back. They really didn't move, but waited for him there.

Liu Sheng hesitated for a moment, but still pulled the reins and walked towards them.

The little boy was telling Lin Xiao something vividly. Suddenly he saw them, tilted his head and looked at him for a long time, as if he finally remembered who he was.

"Big brother?"

Liu Sheng smiled, and she immediately pulled Lin Xiao and shouted happily: "Uncle Lin, Uncle Lin, this is the big brother who treated me to candied haws that day."

Lin Xiao quickly dismounted and saluted them: "Greetings to His Highness, and to Lord Liu."

Nangong Fusang recognized her; she was the prime minister’s only daughter, Ye Qingwan.

Without waiting for them to speak, Ye Qingwan lay down on the horse, first reaching down with her feet to reach the ground, and then sliding off the horse.

"Miss, what are you doing here? It's very dangerous." Lin Xiao said, and hurriedly tried to carry her onto the horse.

Ye Qingwan lowered her head instantly, dodged it quickly, and ran away like a little loach, rushing to the front of Liu Sheng and his horses: "Big brother, can you help me catch a little tiger?"

Liu Sheng leaned forward slightly, resting his elbows on the horse, and said with a smile: "Little sister, you still haven't paid me back for the candied haws you owe me."

Section 241

"I know, I remember it all." He blinked his big eyes and said, "Help me catch a little tiger first, and I'll ask my dad to pay you back with the money for the candied haws."

Liu Sheng almost died of laughter. This little girl knew how to throw bricks to attract jade and lure the enemy into deeper territory.

If you want money for the candied haws, then help her catch a little tiger.

"Then I don't want the money for the candied haws." Liu Sheng said, reining in his horse and preparing to leave.

Ye Qingwan was about to chase him when Lin Xiao suddenly threw her down and said, "Miss, be careful."

Then countless "swish" sounds were heard from the woods, and someone was shooting arrows.

Liu Sheng pulled out the soft sword at his waist to block a few attacks, and found that they were all rushing towards the great prince. Several royal guards around the great prince had already been shot dead.

Seeing that he could no longer hold on, Liu Sheng jumped up, threw him off the horse, and pulled him to hide behind a tree. Arrows were still flying all around him.

This was the first time Nangong Fusang encountered such a thing. He was a little flustered and his whole body was shaking.

The cold arrows continued to be fired for a while, and then gradually stopped.

Footsteps began to be heard around them, running towards them quickly.

Liu Sheng handed him the soft sword: "Have you ever practiced martial arts?"

"A little at a time."

"I'll go out and lure them out. You run back and protect yourself."

"No, it's too dangerous for you." Although Nangong Fusang was afraid, he was still unwilling to leave him alone.

Liu Sheng glanced at him calmly and said, "Your Highness, if you want to survive, you have to be ruthless."

After Liu Sheng finished speaking, he stood out from behind the tree, drew his bow, put three arrows on it, aimed at the men in black who were flying towards him, and knocked down three of them instantly.

Seeing this, Nangong Fusang gritted his teeth and ran back quickly.

Watching Nangong Fusang running backwards, Liu Sheng rushed forward while shooting arrows, trying to stop all the men in black.

The men in black didn't expect that there were masters here, and they lost more than a dozen people at once.

But they quickly adjusted their status, divided their troops into three groups, and surrounded them directly.

Liu Sheng was forced into a close position and arrows were of no use, so he dropped his bow and fought them with his bare hands, thus being able to protect himself.

But Nangong Fusang was having a hard time. He was originally a prince, and he practiced martial arts just to strengthen his body. If he really got into a fight, it would be of no use at all.

Plus, he didn't learn much, so when he met someone who was fighting desperately, his martial arts moves were no match for him. In a few moves, his sword was knocked down by the opponent, and he was knocked unconscious by an elbow.

After knocking him unconscious, the man in black picked him up and ran away.

Seeing this, Liu Sheng slapped away the person who was blocking him and was about to chase after him.

But after taking two steps, he heard Lin Xiao groan and was kicked away.

Then the man in black picked up Ye Qingwan and ran away in another direction at a high speed.

Liu Sheng stood in the middle, looking at the two people who were kidnapped, and for a moment he didn't know who to chase.
