Chapter 82 Spring Hunt (Part Two): Fiery Warhorse



Han Qi led a few young soldiers and ran away.

Pi was furious. Although the army had been called in, this was still outside the imperial city. Not only were there people everywhere, but there was also the possibility of encountering wild animals.

Is Han Qishi out of his mind? He just ran away like that?

Xiao Yuanche was secretly pleased when he learned of this, as it would make his plan easier to implement.

Xiao Yuanshuang, on the other hand, showed no concern whatsoever.

"It's alright, it's safe here. Let General Han go to the spring hunt."

"Hunting more will also bring honor to the Yue Kingdom."

Since even the master said so, Master Pi had nothing to say.

Murong Anle was enjoying tea in his courtyard.

Just kidding, how could he possibly change the courtyard for the Yue delegation? That courtyard already had Qianli'er (a legendary bird-like creature) placed inside.

After moving to a different courtyard, he went there to monitor the two men.

Murong Yue first took a walk around her courtyard, mainly to familiarize herself with the surroundings.

This is a zombie's instinct.

When you go to a new environment, you've already taken a trip.

It makes it easy to escape if you encounter any danger.

The courtyard is a large five-section courtyard. Entering through the main gate, there are four large rooms in the outer courtyard, which are personally guarded by the Imperial Guards. Qi Yuan also lives here.

Then there's the central courtyard, where His Majesty has his personal physicians and Chief Steward Zhu; they practically moved half of the imperial kitchen there.

Following that were, in order, the living quarters of those who served His Majesty closely, small storerooms, and so on.

Murong Yue lived at the very back.

I feel very safe.

"Huh? A horse?"

When she arrived at the Intermediate Court, a flash of red suddenly caught her eye. Upon closer inspection, she realized it was a pure red horse.

Like a burning flame, dazzling and eye-catching.

Its muscles are clearly defined, and its fur is glossy and smooth, like silk.

This kind of person has a strong explosive power and will definitely survive to the end in the apocalypse.

"Your Majesty, it is your blazing flame."

"mine?"

Murong Yue looked surprised and pointed to herself with her slender white fingers.

“Yes, this flame is yours, nurtured little by little from this height,” Ah Hao gestured to his waist.

"The Blazing Flame is a purebred Akhal-Teke horse, a gift from the Emperor Emeritus and Empress Dowager to you for your twelfth birthday."

"Before you ascended the throne, you personally fed the animals, but later, due to your busy schedule with government affairs, you handed them over to others."

Murong Yue counted on her fingers how old Lieyan was this year.

"Ah, how old am I?"

Ah-hao: ...

"Your Majesty, you ascended the throne at the age of sixteen, and this year you are twenty years old. This is your fifth year on the throne. After your birthday, you will be twenty-one years old."

There's nothing we can do; it's normal for His Majesty to forget things given his current memory.

oh oh.

Murong Yue continued calculating and finally concluded that Lie Yan was about to turn nine or eight years old.

Who cares, he looks really cool right now.

Murong Yue walked step by step toward the crimson horse, muttering, "Blazing Flame? Blazing Flame?"

She saw Qi Yuan and Li Xuanji riding horses and felt very envious.

I never imagined I'd have a horse, and such a wonderful one at that.

Murong Yue was eager to try it out and wanted to ride it.

As she approached, Lieyan became visibly excited, its hooves bobbing on the ground a few times before it lowered its head and rubbed against Murong Yue's palm.

Master, waaaaah—

Communication between animals is so natural. Although everyone thinks Murong Yue is human, Murong Yue thinks she is a zombie.

Zombies, humans, and animals all exist on Earth, and at times, we are all the same.

Murong Yue grabbed a handful of soybeans from the side and placed them near the flames' mouth.

With a hint of negotiation, she asked, "Flame, may I ride you?"

Ah-hao: ...

Unexpectedly, Lieyan stopped showing off the soybeans and knelt down on his front legs, continuing to nuzzle Murong Yue with his head.

Murong Yue was overjoyed and instinctively stepped onto the horse.

"Your Majesty is in danger! Lieyan hasn't even been saddled yet!" Ah Hao was terrified and hurriedly chased after them.

But Lieyan had already stood up and ran out like the wind with Murong Yue.

From the middle gate to the main gate, before anyone could react, the flames moved unimpeded.

Murong Yue's tacit understanding with Lie Yan was ingrained in her body, as if she had no teacher. Even without a saddle, she could sit steadily.

Flame's back was broad and flat, much like a chair.

Along the way, everyone in the palace assumed that His Majesty wanted to go out on his own and did not stop him at all.

Ah Hao hurriedly found Qi Yuan, who was setting up defenses outside.

"Lord Qi, His Majesty has been taken away by the flames."

"Hmm? His Majesty can ride a horse, and Lieyan was raised by His Majesty himself, so don't worry."

"Can..."

"Ah, good girl, don't worry, I'll go take a look right away," Qi Yuan strode out the door, pulled out his white horse that was tied to the side, and chased after His Majesty in the direction he was going.

This was the first time Murong Yue had ridden on horseback.

The horseback riding was stable, and the view was very wide. In the night, you could see the entire palace and the high mountains behind it.

The spring breeze, carrying a hint of chill, blew against my face.

Murong Yue felt an unprecedented sense of freedom, one she had never experienced before.

very nice.

Soon, Qi Yuan caught up and followed on horseback at a distance.

Flame didn't run very far; it ran around the palace twice before heading home.

"Your Majesty, you scared this servant to death!"

"Ah, riding a horse is so much fun."

"His Majesty!"

"Okay!"

Qi Yuan watched the two laughing and joking, and a smile appeared on his lips.

He also looked forward to the spring hunt, hoping that in addition to guarding His Majesty, he would have more opportunities to see Ah Hao.
