If the Prince Yong's Mansion resists, we will not obey orders. That would be tantamount to treason, and the more than a thousand imperial guards stationed in the hunting grounds are not vegetarians.

The emperor showed his sharp white teeth and said with a smile: "Anyone who violates this rule will be stripped of his title and demoted!"

However, there is no way out.

If Chu Ninghan personally surrendered and bowed his head in front of all the officials and nobles in Kyoto now and handed over the power to lead the troops.

He could be merciful and forgive Prince Yong's Mansion.

A Yongwang Mansion without a victorious army is like a cripple with its limbs chopped off and eyes gouged out.

Not enough to be afraid of.

The emperor gave the order, "Let's go. I'll wait for you to return victoriously in fifteen days!"

"As your majesty wishes!"

The officials and dignitaries at the banquet had different expressions, but they all stood up to receive the order.

The emperor targeted Prince Yong's Mansion, but Prince Yong's Mansion did not refuse.

Anyone who is not stupid knows that this autumn hunt will be bloody.

Autumn hunting requires going into the mountains for fifteen days, and these fifteen days must be spent in the mountains.

Even those who have received training may not be able to survive, let alone the civil officials who do not participate much.

For an untrained person, staying alone in the mountains for fifteen days would be difficult, let alone hunting, even surviving.

In previous years, most of the people who went into the mountains for autumn hunting were commoners carefully selected from families with military honors. They competed on the 15th to win the final victory in order to gain the attention of their master.

After all, it was just a trick performed for the nobles.

This time, the emperor requires that someone from each aristocratic family must participate, which shows that he is deliberately trying to kill people.

The ones killed were Chu Ninghan and Jiang Li.

This was a blatant plot, but they couldn't escape it.

Chu Ninghan appeared in the crowd of people in Prince Yong's mansion, riding a horse with dark clouds and white hooves.

He changed into tight clothes, but his eyes were still covered with a silk ribbon, but the color of the silk ribbon was reddish and dark, and it fluttered in the west wind.

There was no expression on his calm and handsome face, and blindness did not seem to be a problem for him.

He was armed only with a bow and dozens of swords.

The west wind was sharp and fierce, and there was an inexplicable sense of solemnity.

Following behind him were two guards from Prince Yong's palace, who also only carried bows and arrows.

This is a privilege of Prince Yong's Mansion, which allows two attendants.

The rest of the people, regardless of their rank or social status, can only bring one person with them.

This person is their helper.

They can be followers or the children of nobles.

In the Yongning Marquis Mansion, Jiang Li was also among the group.

Her horse was an ordinary horse trained in a hunting ground, and hanging on the horse was a bow with dozens of arrows.

His dress is not much different from Chu Ninghan's.

Moreover, Jiang Li did not bring any followers.

"Alas...poor thing."

The military families who often participated in the fifteen-day hunting trip could not help but sigh when they saw this, and lit candles for Jiang Li and Chu Ninghan in their hearts in advance.

There is only one hunting trip in the mountain throughout the year, and the mountain is closed for the rest of the time.

Although this is a royal palace, it is no different from a primeval forest.

For those who are unprepared and are hunting for the first time, there is only one choice they can make if they don't want to die.

That is to bring as much food as possible and hide outside the mountains for fifteen days.

Even though it was a bit embarrassing and I was destined to not get anything, my life was finally avenged.

Chu Ninghan and Jiang Li, one of them is blind and the other is a woman, and they have never been to such a dangerous place.

They didn't even bring any dry food with them. They only brought bows and arrows. Did they intend to find prey on their own?

I’m afraid that in the end I won’t find any prey and instead will become food for wild beasts.

Soon, all the people who had gone into the mountains to hunt came out.

There were nearly a hundred of them, which was quite spectacular.

However, in front of the endless green mountains, they are as small as ants.

"Into the mountains——"

The call was heard from a very far distance, and smoke and dust rose up on the road leading into the mountain.

Some people who were not good at riding horses have fallen off their horses, been trampled by the horses' hooves, and died screaming.

This is just the beginning.

After entering the mountain, the crowd quickly dispersed.

This was also because hundreds of horses went into the mountains at the same time, and many people’s horses were frightened, and the horse owners were completely unable to control them.

Jiang Li's horse was also frightened and ran wildly for a long time before slowly stopping in the woods.

Everywhere I look, I see the same forest and mountains. I don’t know where they came from, but they are exactly the same from front to back, left to right.

The tall trees blocked the sunlight, making it dark in the forest and extremely difficult to tell the direction.

If she were an ordinary girl, she would basically be waiting to die in such a place.

Jiang Li remained calm. She held the reins, turned the horse's head, and headed towards the woods on the left.

After a while, a dozen men in black came on horseback, holding swords and looking murderous.

They looked at the traces left by the horse and said, "Jiang Li is heading southeast. Chase him!"

The deeper we went into the forest, the colder it became and the more misty it became.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but there’s a faint strange fragrance in the mist.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

The men in black fell off their horses one after another, but the horses seemed unaware and continued to gallop towards the southeast.

As the sun sets in the west, the trees in the deep forest in the southeast gradually become sparse, and instead there appears a huge lake with abundant water and grass and beautiful scenery.

All thirteen horses arrived at the water's edge.

"Thirteen people?"

Jiang Li stuck the fish shot out of the water next to the fire, walked forward to unload all the supplies from the Thirteen Horses, and moved them to the simple wooden house built with fresh wood.

The wooden house is not big, it can only accommodate a bed and a place to store supplies.

The supplies for each of these people are enough for two days. With the supplies for these thirteen people, she doesn't even need to hunt and can just wait until the fifteenth day.

Jiang Li fed his little red horse a handful of grass to make sure that the smell on its body had completely dissipated.

She knew that Emperor Jiang Tan would send someone to kill her, so the horse she rode today had been tampered with.

There is a special smell immediately, which can provide guidance.

So she took advantage of the situation and deliberately left some poisonous incense on the road when she came.

It can kill people, but is harmless to horses.

Sure enough, thirteen horses came straight towards her carrying supplies.

Jiang Li looked at the supplies piled up like a mountain in the house, and a trace of nostalgia and sadness flashed in his eyes.

Back then, she and her little brother were in the Qingyang Mountains in much the same situation as they are now.

Many people chased them.

However, the young brother used various methods to eliminate them and intercepted their supplies.

It was piled like this at that time.

However, later on, fewer and fewer people came to chase him.

She and her little brother had no supplies, so they hunted wild animals in the mountains, made their own ropes and pottery, and even cut clothes.

No one knew that the two of them actually stayed in such deep mountains and dense forests for more than a year.

Unfortunately……

Jiang Li returned to the fire by the lake, and the fish had been burnt.

Just like the place in the past, it has turned into ashes in the sea of ​​fire and no longer exists.

And this time, Chu Ninghan will definitely be hunted down...

He was able to get rid of the people who were chasing him back then, so he can definitely do it now.

In the early morning, the birds in the silent forest were startled and flew away, and a figure in black rushed out of the forest.

The closer we got to the lakeside cabin, the slower our pace became.

At the same time, the smell of blood became stronger.

In the darkness, Jiang Li opened his eyes quickly.
