Because he was too focused on archery, Li Xian was completely unaware when several generals came over. It wasn't until he missed the arrow in his hand and hit the bullseye that he realized that there were several people standing next to him.
Seeing several generals, Li Xian was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Why don't you guys do morning exercises, but come to see Gushe Archery?"
Cheng Wuting smiled and said: "Although His Highness has only learned archery not long ago, you can already see the traces of hard practice with just one arrow."
"General Cheng is so complimentary. On the contrary, your archery skills are superb. If I have any questions, I hope you will give me some advice."
Seeing that the prince was neither arrogant nor impetuous, the generals immediately felt more favorable towards him.
Taking a step forward, Su Qingjie cupped his hands and said: "Your Highness, today is different from yesterday. Yesterday, the prey gathered, so it was easy to hunt. But today is different. You need to ride a horse to hunt the prey, which makes it much more difficult. I don't know. , Does Your Highness need the general to escort you around?"
Guard?
Li Xian looked at Li Yun and saw that he nodded vaguely, and agreed: "I'm glad I asked for it, but my riding skills are really bad. I'm afraid I will make General Su laugh."
Seeing that the prince agreed, Su Qingjie immediately smiled and waved his hands: "If you're not laughing, even the grassland people will not be able to ride horses from their mother's womb. Since His Majesty's riding skills are poor, he needs more protection. Maybe he won't be able to hunt anything. Good prey, but His Highness’s safety is the most important.”
Seeing that Su Qingjie had taken the lead, Cheng Wuting said dissatisfiedly: "What do you mean by not being able to hunt good prey? Although His Highness is not good at riding, we can drive away the wild beasts and regroup to save His Highness from traveling long distances, right?"
Hearing what Cheng Wuting meant, Li Xian quickly refused: "General Cheng, this is inappropriate. When hunters go up the mountain and come back empty-handed, I don't care about this. If you take care of me, I'm afraid you won't be able to do well." Enjoy the autumn hunting. It’s enough to have General Su by your side, you don’t have to do this.”
It is said that kindness is hard to reject, but Li Xian is still unwilling to have so many people driven by him.
He is not the emperor yet, so doing so is tantamount to provoking the imperial power. Although he didn't know why the generals in the army were suddenly so attentive, at the moment, he still had to see his position clearly. He could develop horizontally and strengthen himself, but he must not take even one step upward.
Seeing that the prince had said this, the generals had no choice but to disperse.
Autumn hunting is equivalent to marching, so after the sun appears, everyone from the emperor to the soldiers has a big meal to eat.
Perhaps the only preferential treatment the emperor and the prince received was a plate of pickles.
Thick millet porridge, paired with crisp radish pickles, is simply a supreme enjoyment. When I was in the East Palace, the meals were probably like this.
After having breakfast and resting for a while, under Li Xian's surprised gaze, Li Zhi didn't know which string in his brain was broken, but he actually wanted to participate in the hunting himself. Perhaps he was persuaded by the ministers not to ride a horse, but this guy got a chariot out of nowhere. It looked cool, but in fact it could only be used for sightseeing in the ravine.
However, if he has a car, it doesn't mean he can't go out and have a look.
Li Xian actually understood very well that although Li Zhi seemed to be chatting and laughing, in fact, only he knew best about his physical condition.
Nowadays, Li Zhi can be said to be in full bloom. No one knows whether his current normality is a flash in the pan.
After all, the accumulated symptoms cannot be cured by changes in mentality and so-called dietary supplements.
Under the leadership of Li Zhi, each team once again left the camp.
Different from the relaxed atmosphere of the first day, today's hunting was obviously much more difficult.
Although the prey were driven to this place suitable for hunting, they have already disappeared into the grass and trees, making it difficult to find them. Moreover, after a night's rest, they have basically recovered their strength. The mountain roads are complicated, and although there are roads, they are difficult to find. The area beyond the road is not accessible by horseback.
It’s really easy to injure horses in the mountainous and rugged area. When everyone comes to hunt in autumn, they basically bring their favorite mounts, and no one is a loser...
Just when Li Xian was thinking this, he saw a man riding a horse up the mountain road on the opposite hillside.
After taking a closer look, I discovered that it was Ashina Abuuma.
It stands to reason that prairie people cherish their war horses. How could he ignore the BMW...
Looking at the object he was chasing, Li Xian couldn't help but open his mouth. It turned out to be another white tiger!
Moreover, compared with yesterday, the hair of this white tiger was whiter.
There is no doubt that whoever catches this white tiger will be the leader today.
Ashina Buzhen was not the only one to discover the white tiger. As for the impatient Tubo people, they had already dismounted and started running desperately in the direction of the white tiger.
The most anxious thing is probably Cheng Wuting. Yesterday, he defeated the others with his white tiger. Although it was not as good as a living white deer, it was still enough to steal the show. Today, another white tiger appeared, and he could not let others take the lead.
Seeing more and more people gathering on the hilltop opposite, Li Xian curled his lips, reached out and nodded to the five accompanying eunuchs and said, "You guys, go help General Cheng."
The five men bowed to accept the order, and then drove their horses away at a gallop.
Li Xian, on the other hand, turned his horse around without hesitation and continued to move forward.
After swallowing in the direction of the white tiger, Su Qingjie drove his horse to follow the prince, wondering: "Why is your highness not moved by the white tiger at all?"
Li Xian said without looking back: "I really want to catch a white tiger and raise it, but it's not worth sacrificing too many lives for it. And there are so many people catching white tigers. Once someone has the intention to kill, we will also We may not be able to come out on top. Instead of wasting time in chaos, we might as well ignore the temptation in front of us. Qiu Lie is here to enjoy, and it’s not worth wasting our time just for the so-called false reputation."
"Then why did you send someone to help Lao Cheng?"
"General Cheng was ranked among the top white tigers yesterday. If someone takes the lead today, he will be unhappy. I don't plan to hunt any big prey, so I simply sent someone to help him."
After saying that, when he saw movement in the grass on the side of the road, Li Xian picked up his bow and arrow without hesitation.
Although he couldn't see clearly, he still followed his guess and missed the arrow.
empty....
As expected, archery is not always a sure hit.
Li Xian also missed the shot. After enjoying the goat he hunted yesterday, this guy was full of expectations for today and didn't even sleep well at night.
