The emperor's hunting, to put it clearly, is that the emperor wants to show off his military power, indulge in the addiction of showing off, and listen to the praise of others.
If you show how awesome you are in front of the emperor and thereby overshadow the emperor, that's just a fool's errand.
Zhu Gaojie's arrow did not shoot a deer, but a human being.
Zhu Zhanji was stunned when he saw it: Fourth uncle is really good! How did he say such shameful words?
After being licked so wildly by Zhu Gaojie, Zhu Di became more interested, and he rode his horse and bowed to hunt a few hares and pheasants. Three or four hours passed unknowingly.
I don't know when the sky was covered by thick black clouds, and the dazzling sunshine was blocked by the dark clouds. A strong wind blew in the mountains and forests, withered branches and leaves rustling, and even wild animals no longer appeared.
Seeing that it was going to rain, Zhu Di was tired and tired after hunting all afternoon.
The old man let out a long sigh: "Heroes also have their twilight years. I'm getting old. Back then, I felt energetic even after climbing on the ice and lying in the snow for three days and three nights without sleep on the battlefield. But now I feel exhausted after just hunting for an hour."
No one answered the question, even Zhu Gaojie, who had been flattering him, fell silent.
He can't say: Zhu Di, you are just a post, you are already old and cliched, why are you still occupying the throne? I advise you to pass the throne to me as soon as possible, otherwise you will have the juice to eat!
"I'm tired, come back." Zhu Di waved his hand.
The group of people rode towards the direction where the pro-army troops were stationed. Raindrops began to float in the lead-colored sky, which became more intense. After a while, it turned into a majestic heavy rain, as if God was creating an ink painting. Zhu Gaojie and others all became drowned rats and sped up and rushed to the camp.
It was only a few miles away from the camp and could be reached in the blink of an eye. However, due to the sudden heavy rain, the mountains and forests were filled with mud, making it difficult for a few people to walk.
An unknown premonition arose in Zhu Gaojie's heart.
No way, no way, that kind of bloody plot won’t really happen, right?
…
The wind was noisy and the rainstorm was continuous.
In the dark forest, a loud roar suddenly came.
"Fire the arrow!"
"Kill Zhu Di!"
The rain of arrows roared in, and the flying rain mixed with it was densely packed!
The personal guards guarding Zhu Di are all the best among the best. Although they have not yet realized what happened, their body's muscle memory has controlled them to surround Zhu Di, forming a solid barrier with their bodies!
Guard General Fan Zhong's scalp went numb and he shouted: "Guard!"
Who would have thought that there would be an assassin hiding in the mountains and forests!
Damn it, the emperor was patrolling the north, and the pro-army scouts were able to disperse hundreds of miles away to detect unusual and clearing threats. How did this assassin get here!
The arrows were hidden in the heavy rain and fell quietly. The pro-soldiers blocked the most deadly first round of attacks with their bodies, ensuring that Zhu Di was safe and sound.
Zhu Gaojie drew out his sword, turned over and dismounted, and with quick movements, he chopped down the arrows that struck him.
But not everyone can be like him and remain calm in the face of such a panic situation.
For example...the emperor's grandson.
Although Zhu Zhanji is talented and mature, he can still react when faced with such a fierce rain of arrows and draw his sword in time to defend.
But he was still too young after all, and his flaw was exposed due to his high mental tension. Seeing that a stray arrow was about to hit his back, Zhu Gaojie suddenly appeared and chopped off the fatal arrow with a swing of his knife!
Only then did Zhu Zhanji realize that if Zhu Gaojie hadn't taken action, his life would have ended here!
"Thank you, fourth uncle, for saving your life!" The young emperor's grandson was quite moved.
Fortunately, it is Zhu Gaojie who is here!
If the King of Han were here, even if Zhu Zhanji escaped, he would still be stabbed in the back by the King of Han!
"Stop talking nonsense and take care of your life. I may not be able to save you like this next time."
Zhu Gaojie pushed Zhu Zhanji to the ground and used brute force to pull over the body of the horse that died in the arrow rain, allowing Zhu Zhanji to hide under the horse carcass and escape the continuous rain of arrows.
His brain was working rapidly, and Zhu Gaojie ran towards Zhu Di: "Father, I'm here to save you!"
Help me!
Facing the chaotic situation, hiding with Zhu Di is the safest choice!
This old man is more sinister than anyone else. Zhu Gaojie doesn't believe that Zhu Di has no means to protect himself!
…
"kill!"
"Old Zhu Di! Come and accept your fate!"
Black-clad swordsmen all over the mountains and plains came out to kill. The heavy rain did not extinguish their killing rage, but made them even more unstoppable!
They have only one goal - to kill Zhu Di!
Seeing this scene, Zhu Gaojiao frowned slightly and retreated behind everyone.
He had some doubts about whether hiding next to Zhu Di was the right choice. How many people wanted to kill the old man!
How about... sneak away first as a courtesy?
Anyway, these assassins want to kill the emperor, so what does King Qi have to do with him?
Please, I, Zhu Gaojie, and Zhu Di are really not familiar with each other!
Zhu Gaojie turned his attention to the old man who was supported by everyone, but found that Zhu Di looked calm and even smiled disdainfully: "That's it?"
This also made Prince Qi relax, feeling that the emperor really had a hidden agenda, otherwise how could he be so calm?
"That's it? Isn't it just death? Why have I ever been afraid of death?" Zhu Di said with emotion.
Zhu Gaojie almost fell to the ground when he heard this.
He thought that Zhu Di would wave his hand and send out tens of thousands of cavalry in the next moment to wipe out all the rebellious officials and traitors who dared to assassinate the king.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Di actually said: "I have never been afraid of death!"
Geneva! Get your money back!
Are you worthy of the high hopes I have for you? Are you worthy of me?
Zhu Gaojie took a deep breath and tightened the sword in his hand.
The old man didn't give me any help, and now that the situation has come to an end, I can only risk my life.
This time was much more brutal than the assassination that Zhu Gaojie suffered in Jiaozhi.
At that time, a rebel army of 800 people surrounded and suppressed three people, but now it is also a group of hundreds of people surrounding and suppressing a few people. The difference is that these assassins are determined to die!
Zhu Gaojie was puzzled, why hadn't he seen the shadow attendant appear until now?
Zhu Di is willing to provide his son with a shadow attendant, but he is reluctant to take him with him when he goes out?
What did the old man think?
…
Fan Zhong raised his sword and immediately stood up, showing his rationality in the face of danger. He led the few remaining soldiers to stand in front of Zhu Di, and raised his sword to kill the swordsman in front of him!
Beside him, Zhu Gaojie held the handle of the sword with both hands, lowered his head and charged, the blade was sharp, and he chopped down the swordsman in front of him to the ground like a fierce tiger!
Blood slid down the back of the knife, and Zhu Gaojie's eyes were cold.
The sword in his hand is called the Zhan Dao, and it is the most controversial type of knife among the four types of Tang Dao!
The advantage is that it is light and flexible, making it easy to fight in close quarters. When the Hengdao or Modao in the hands of soldiers is inconvenient to use because they are close to the body, the barrier sword becomes the dominant weapon at close range. Therefore, the barrier sword is used to defend the enemy. Because of the length limit of the sword, the wielder needs the entire body of the sword. Both the sword and the sword are facing the enemy, so that the barrier sword can be used to its maximum potential in the most powerful way.
Fan Zhong couldn't help but glanced at Zhu Gaojie in surprise. He had only seen King Qi beating Chen Jin, the censor of Youdu, to death with the back of his sword in the Fengtian Palace. He never thought that King Qi could be so brave in such a chaotic and dangerous situation!
