Tragic death and rebirth, the daughter of a general poisoned the government and the country

Mulan Paddock is located in the south of the capital. It is a huge royal hunting ground established by the previous dynasty. Hunting is held in Mulan Paddock every spring.

Today, the Mulan Paddock is filled with colorful flags that flutter in the wind, and there are hundreds of human-shaped straw targets standing around it.

Further away were the endless woods and the majestic horses beside the paddock.

The bitter cold wind of early spring blew across the paddock. Next to the tall martial arts stage, civil and military officials and the wives and daughters of officials sat on both sides. On the stage in the center, dancers were beating waist drums and dancing to the wind.

Emperor Ming and the Empress sat in the upper seats, but the most arrogant and domineering Concubine Hu was not there. It seemed that she still could not escape the punishment of the Empress Dowager.

While observing the current situation, Lin Yushu lowered her head and took a sip of fruit wine. It was sweet and sour and very delicious.

Lin Mingyue took Lin Ling to sit in the position below Emperor Ming, and even several cabinet ministers had to sit behind them.

During the banquet, Emperor Ming repeatedly toasted Lin Mingyue, frightening him so much that he kept kneeling down.

Emperor Ming blamed Lin Mingyue for being too reserved, but his smile was obviously much more relaxed, and he was very satisfied with Lin Mingyue's respectful attitude.

"Your Majesty, I have heard that the General Guarding the Nation and the General of the Cavalry were extremely brave on the battlefield and killed countless enemies. Unfortunately, I have no chance to see the two generals in person. Why not let the young masters of the noble families compete with the General of the Cavalry today to open their eyes."

Lin Yushu frowned slightly and looked at the courtier who was speaking.

Assistant Minister of the Ministry of War, Xu Wen.

Nan Rongjing had told her that this person was neutral on the surface, but was actually a person planted by Nan Huaishuo. Now that his identity had been exposed, he had secretly defected to the prince.

But Lin Yushu knew that this was Nan Huaishuo's way of protecting himself. Before the prince died, he would never reveal any ambition to others.

Lin Mingyue had made great military achievements and was highly respected after returning to the court. He even became the first great general of the dynasty, which made many people in the court envious and jealous.

Xu Wen's words seemed to praise Lin Mingyue and Lin Ling, but in fact they aroused the jealousy and dissatisfaction of the ministers towards the father and son of the Lin family.

But the checks and balances among ministers have always been Emperor Ming’s favorite drama.

"Lord Xu is right. I also want to see the style of the General of the Cavalry."

As soon as these words were spoken, the eunuchs and guards immediately got busy.

A moment later, Nan Rongjing, Nan Huaishuo, Lin Ling and several young masters from aristocratic families, dressed in military uniforms, sat on their horses.

It was just a simple horse archery game, with each person shooting ten arrows at the stationary scarecrow while riding on a galloping horse.

The competition began with the sound of gongs and drums. Seven young men rode on their horses, and the sand they raised behind them followed the horses like clouds, as if they were soldiers from heaven descending to earth.

Lin Ling and Nan Rongjing were in the front, followed closely by Nan Huaishuo, and the other four young masters could only barely keep up.

Lin Ling shot out ten arrows quickly, each one more powerful than the last, and a whooshing sound of breaking through the wind was heard in the paddock.

"Good! The Cavalry General is indeed brave and unrivaled!"

All ten arrows hit the bull's eye, and all the ministers were impressed. No matter how jealous they were, they had to bow down in the face of absolute strength.

Nan Huaishuo's archery skills were also excellent, but slightly inferior to Lin Ling's. He hit eight out of ten targets and still received some praise.

Nan Rongjing took the lead and ran in the front, but he didn't shoot a single arrow.

"Could it be that Prince Jin's archery skills are not good and he doesn't plan to shoot anymore?"

"The prince of Jin is very skilled, how could he not know how to ride and shoot? However, he is not in good health, and his physical strength is probably not as good as before."

Amid the discussions of the crowd, Emperor Ming looked at the dark figure with a golden glow. Others did not know, but Emperor Ming knew clearly that Nan Rongjing had suffered from a strange disease since he was a child, and the imperial doctors had treated him for many years but there was no cure.

It wasn't until Old Master Shen came out and saved his life, but Old Master Shen once said that Nan Rongjing would not live past the age of 20.

Nan Rongjing is just twenty years old now. Could it be that he is no longer capable?

Nan Rongjing has always been a hidden worry in Emperor Ming's heart, but as long as he can die early, Emperor Ming will naturally be willing to perform a drama of loving uncle and filial nephew to the people of the world.

Is this drama coming to an end?

Before Emperor Ming could feel any anticipation building up in his heart, Nan Rongjing reached into the quiver and took out ten arrows.

With the bow in a fan shape, Nan Rongjing aimed sharply at the target not far away.

"Whoosh..."

Ten arrows shot out from the air at the same time, flying straight towards the targets in different directions. With "puff puff puff" sounds, all ten arrows hit the center of the bull's eye.

Hit ten bullseyes at once!

"As expected of the commander of the Imperial Guards, the Prince of Jin is so mighty!"

"Great, great! You have the demeanor of Prince Jin in his past!"

Emperor Ming's face darkened for a moment, then immediately glowed with a false glow, and he kept clapping and praising.

"The prince of Jin is indeed extraordinary in riding and shooting. I would like to have another competition with him, is that okay?"

Lin Ling hasn't felt he has met his match for a long time. The only ones who can compete with him on the battlefield are old guys.

It was rare that Nan Rongjing was of the same age as him and had never been on the battlefield but had such skills. Lin Ling immediately felt itchy and wanted to have some sparring with him.

Nan Rongjing's usually cold face softened a little upon hearing this.

"Okay, I'll just follow your orders, General Hussar."

Lin Ling was just asking tentatively. He had heard that Nan Rongjing was a cold-blooded devil, but now he saw that he had a kind personality.

"Dead things are boring, let's shoot living things!"

Lin Ling waved his hand, and the eunuchs in the enclosure behind him brought in three large cages of Saker Falcons. Each of them had bright eyes and lush, shiny feathers.

Nan Rongjing and Lin Ling stood side by side on the martial arts stage. A gong sounded, and the eunuch opened the first cage of Gaker Falcons.

Flutter flutter.

Dozens of Saker Falcons with gray-brown patterns spread out and flew towards the sky in all directions like lightning.

Nan Rongjing and Lin Ling each held an arrow and shot in an orderly manner at the Saker Falcon that instantly turned into the size of a sesame seed in the sky.

One after another, the falcons landed. Everyone looked up at the sky, and cheers were heard from time to time.

Lin Yushu was watching with great interest when suddenly a strong light shone on her, blinding her.

Squinting her eyes slightly and enduring the glare of the bright light, Lin Yushu saw that it was a gong in the distance, reflecting the midday sun, shining right on her.

Lin Yushu turned around and told Leng Dai to move the gong, and waited with her eyes closed for the strong light to disappear.

However, before Leng Dai could reach the gong, the last cage of Saker Falcons was released.

The flapping sounds were louder than in the previous two cages. These Saker Falcons seemed to be frightened and flew out one after another as soon as the cages were opened.

The flying Saker Falcon made a hoarse "cackling" sound, its feathers exploded, and the fallen feathers scattered on the seat.

"Look, there's a big bird in the sky. It's not a Saker Falcon, it's... an eagle!"

Hearing this, Lin Yushu barely opened her eyes that were hurt by the shaking and looked towards a large golden-brown bird in the sky.

This bird is huge in size, with golden-brown feathers all over its body. At this moment, it is catching the fleeing Saker Falcons in the sky.

Unfortunately, the Saker Falcon's small body flew very fast, and the eagle failed to catch its prey, but instead looked down at the ground.

Nan Rongjing and Lin Ling shot down most of the Saker Falcons, and at this time, dozens of Saker Falcon corpses fell on the stage.

The extremely hungry eagle swooped down on the crowd in an instant.

"Ahhh it's coming!"

"Get out of the way!"

Without waiting for the crowd to escape, the eagle flew above the martial arts stage in the blink of an eye and flew towards the brightest place below.

Lin Yushu's pupils suddenly shrank and she saw clearly.

It was a ferocious golden eagle, flying straight towards her!
