Although he smiled brightly, Li Xian was actually very confused inside.
Why did the Queen come out after something like Qiu Lie?
However, considering that Li Zhi is going to be the hands-off shopkeeper this time, such a thing is not so strange.
Seeing Li Xian's clumsy appearance on horseback, Li Zhi in the carriage sighed: "Your imperial grandfather, the late emperor, and I are all good at riding, how come you..."
"Be content. Xian'er has worked very hard. Have you ever heard of him being lazy? How could he be proficient in everything in such a short period of time!"
Before Li Zhi finished speaking, he was blocked by the Queen of Heaven.
Seeing the Queen's protective look, Li Zhi smiled and was not angry. Instead, he handed his mat to Li Xian.
One cushion can provide some relief, but two cushions are difficult to coordinate and will become a burden.
However, at this time, Li Xian couldn't refuse at all.
I have been given the gift for a long time, and I dare not say goodbye.
If you dare to resign, you will be beaten.
Seeing that Li Xian had put two cushions under his buttocks, Li Zhi waved his hand to signal the team to speed up.
Just now, he deliberately asked the team to slow down just to take care of the prince.
And even though the prince had already stepped onto the mat, Li Zhi did not let the team advance too fast. If the speed is too fast, it will be torture for a beginner like Prince.
Moreover, not only the prince, but also the civil servants were ugly when riding horses, even worse than the prince.
Looking back at the team of civil servants behind him, Li Zhi couldn't help but sigh.
It is inevitable that the world will be stable and the boundaries between civil and military affairs will become clear again. It is really difficult to expect the current courtiers to be capable of both civil and military affairs.
The royal hunting ground is located in the Qinling Mountains, and it is more than a hundred miles from Chang'an to the hunting ground.
Converted into the measurement units of later generations, it is about fifty kilometers.
Such a long distance, and the horse speed is still slow, naturally cannot be covered in one day.
The Ministry of War, the Ministry of Rites, and Honglu Temple had already made preparations. Before nightfall, the team arrived at a wide flat land full of tents. And on the side of the flat land slightly closer to the mountain, there is actually a palace-like building.
This is the palace.
A palace refers to a palace built for the emperor to live permanently outside the capital. The emperor usually lived there at fixed times. For example, in Jiucheng Mountain, there is a palace specifically for the emperor to escape the summer heat.
However, there were always some arrogant and extravagant emperors in history who were not satisfied with just one or two palaces. Instead, they would build a large number of palaces, imagining that when they went on tour, they would not need to live in ordinary residences no matter where they went, but would have palaces to live in.
It can be said that if the palace has no actual living significance, it is simply a waste of money for the emperor.
The purpose of this palace at present is of course self-evident, it is to give the emperor a place to stay overnight during his autumn hunting trip. However, looking at the slightly dilapidated appearance of the palace, and signs of temporary repairs, it is obvious that this palace has not been used for a long time, nor has it been maintained.
It seems that Li Zhi's claim of working hard is not just bragging.
Upon arriving at the camp, most of the soldiers, led by their respective commanders, lived in the outer tents, while a small number were assigned to watch the night and were distributed to various key places to guard.
The Forbidden Army occupied the second floor. Although there were already guards on the outside, they still sent a large number of soldiers to keep watch.
The innermost circle is naturally guarded by the Qianniu Guards. This part of the Qianniu Guards is even more straightforward, and half of the men are directly assigned to guard the defense. Not counting the scouts hidden on the periphery, the defense alone is three levels high. It can be said that the emperor's security is achieved to the extreme.
After entering the camp, feeling the burning sensation in his crotch, Li Xian breathed a sigh of relief, but after scanning around, he didn't see his tent.
It stands to reason that since we are also a dignified prince, our tent must be bigger than others.
Just when Li Xian was confused, he saw Li Zhi jump out of the carriage and walk into an ordinary cowhide tent with a calm expression.
? ? !
Just after Tianhou also entered, Li Xian finally understood what was going on.
What is real is virtual, and what is virtual is real.
Although Li Gong is large, the target is also very obvious. If someone is really interested in Li Gong, then even if he is in Li Gong with three layers of protection, it is not necessarily safe.
Li Xian, who guessed Li Zhi's intentions, simply stopped looking for a tent, picked one at random, and prepared to go in.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty has arranged for you the tent next to it. You chose too far away."
Just as he was about to go in, he saw Jiang Hao.
After taking a look at the several Qianniu guards who had already entered the tent, Li Xian decisively chose to listen to Jiang Hao.
Like Li Zhi's, the tent Li Xian got looked ordinary, but once he got inside, he discovered that there was something special inside.
The same is true for living in tents, so the royal family will obviously not live in the same way as the soldiers.
Although the outside is the same, all made of cowhide, the inside is covered with fur and mosquito nets.
However, there is no beauty, just a strong guy.
Li Xian!
Seeing that the imperial brother was about to come in, Li Xian quickly got up, took two steps forward and opened the door curtain.
Walking into the tent and taking a look at Li Xian's belly that had not changed, Li Xian smiled and said, "It's not bad, but I didn't go back."
Li Xian chuckled and said, "It's rare that I have lost weight. If I gain weight again, I will be so sorry for the sin I suffered before."
Reaching out and patting Li Xian on the shoulder, Li Xian walked to the chair, sat down, and rested.
Although Li Xian still looked careless, his performance today made Li Xian look at him with admiration.
Since it is a rare autumn hunt, Li Dan will obviously not be absent.
As for Ming Chongyan, after seeing Li Xian riding a horse, he chose to come forward to talk without hesitation, but he was ignored throughout the process.
It seems that he said a lot, but in fact he didn't say a serious word.
Then, Li Xian used the excuse that he had something to do with the prince and his brother, and urged the horses to go some distance ahead.
Although Zhou Quan was far away and could not hear what the two said clearly, at least judging from Li Xian's facial expression, he was obviously very impatient with Ming Chongyan.
This is rare. You must know that Li Xian's previous state can almost be said to be "following what others say". His attitude towards a person or thing can easily change due to other people's words.
But now, at least he has confirmed that the prince and brother are good people, and they know who should listen to what they say, and who should just listen to what they say.
There was no need for the brothers to avoid suspicion, so Li Xian took off his armor without hesitation, took off his pants and applied lotion on his legs.
Riding a horse for a day is a torture to the crotch.
What makes the body naturally rise and fall with the movement of the war horse, and what comes naturally. It sounds simple, but it is difficult to do.
Especially since Lightning is very active right now, running is much bumpier than other horses.
