Reborn imperial concubine

A Mulan autumn hunt often lasts more than [-] days. As usual, the cavalry led by the general in charge will encircle the thousand-mile pine forest, and then gradually reduce the hunting range.

Send soldiers wearing antler masks into the forest to imitate the sound of a stag seeking a mate. When the female deer arrives here to seek a mate, the stag that will seize the mate and the beasts that watch the wild deer will also gather.

When the 72nd circle of Mulan, which stretches for thousands of miles, is reduced to within a hundred miles, and the wild beasts are dense, the generals invite Emperor Qi You to enter the forest and shoot first.

Afterwards, the princes followed the shots, and the princes of the vassals rode and shot, and the large-scale hunting officially kicked off.

Gu Sheng participated in three hunts in total, all traveling with His Highness Ninth Prince.

The team camped at the foot of the mountain, and when the prince went out to hunt, she stayed in the tent and waited.

When the soldiers returned with a full load and the sun was setting, she walked out of the tent to greet them.

When the fire was lit in the camp, watching the eunuchs in the imperial dining room cooking wild game on the spot, listening to the loud military songs of the soldiers, dancing with the duke and prince happily around the fire, laughing and chattering.

The memories of the past are very good, but this time hunting made Gu Sheng feel a little anxious——

Anar comes from a nation that is good at riding and shooting, so she must actively participate in hunting. Naturally, Gu Sheng can't wait in the camp like in previous years, and this time he has to go into the forest with His Highness the Ninth Prince.

I deliberately rummaged through the box and found a set of riding clothes that I made a few years ago. I have worn it once so far, but I didn't expect it to be useful.

The snow-blue cowhide and silk hunting suit, once put on the upper body, the person in the mirror suddenly added a bit of heroism.

Gu Sheng removed the complicated bun, tied it into a neat bun, put on a gold silk crown, and inserted a jade hairpin horizontally, which was beautiful and flamboyant.

The maidservants were full of praise, but Gu Sheng burst into tears——

The clothes seem to be tighter than before...she really is plumper!

After trying on the clothes and then picking the bow and arrow, you have to be fully armed, and you can't lose to the princess.

After all, it is a super-grade Royal Mansion, and there is no bow in the armory that is less than a stone!

With my own arm strength, this heavy bow is too cumbersome to wear on my waist, and she can't pull it away when she encounters prey...

Fortunately, Shanren has his own clever plan. Gu Sheng ran to find his own Zhi Duoxing little scum, and the little scum suggested that he install a sleeve crossbow for her.

Gu Sheng was overjoyed. She had heard of the crossbow. There was a curved bow on the cross pole. There was a Wangshan in the Tongguo, which was a quasi-eye for aiming at the prey. It was easier to control when shooting than a bow and arrow.

The hanging knife is easy to break, and it is more convenient than the lightest bow and arrow!

However, she had never seen the sleeve crossbow before. When she saw the little manager fetch it and put it on the coffee table, a copper box with a length of one foot, and opened the cover, her eyes immediately brightened——

The sleeve crossbow inside is very unique, less than half a foot long, and the wrist guard is made of gold-plated copper. There are more than a dozen pointed copper arrows inserted inside, and the whole body reflects a golden luster in the sun.

The ox horn crossbow body on both sides can be retracted, and when fully opened, the width is less than five inches!

The workmanship is extremely fine, and Gu Sheng was amazed to see it. He stretched out his hand to gently caress the body of the crossbow, and carefully took it out of the small copper box...

This thing is so heavy!

Gu Sheng held out the sleeve crossbow with difficulty, His Highness Ninth Highness immediately raised his hand to take it, and personally put on Gu Sheng's right wrist.

After wearing it, it is difficult to lift the arm, it is so heavy!

Gu Sheng sat down at the coffee table and put his arms on the table.

"This sleeve crossbow looks so precious. Your Highness asked servants to take it to hunt. What if it breaks?" Seeing that it is worth a lot, it is probably the latest weapon developed by the Royal Manufacturing Office. If it breaks, it will not be worth the loss. !

Jiang Chenyue was carefully helping her adjust the buckle on the sleeve crossbow, and upon hearing the words, she replied lightly: "If it breaks, it will break. What can I do? Gu is afraid that you will hurt yourself."

His Highness Ninth Prince pointed to the hanging knife above the sleeve crossbow, and said to Gu Sheng: "Look, this is the trigger. When you use it, you have to release the safety ring on the side first. When you shoot the arrow, keep your hand flat. upturned."

Gu Sheng looked carefully with his eyes wide open, and when he understood it, he immediately ran to the school field and tried to shoot the haystack with his sleeve crossbow.

The aim and strength simply made her happy!

He couldn't help but ask His Highness the Ninth Prince: "With such a good weapon, why do you need bows and arrows!"

His Highness Ninth Highness raised his eyes and looked at the stupid companion, explaining: "The range of this thing is only within fifty steps, and the process of loading and unloading arrows is cumbersome, so it can only be used for close-range emergency self-defense.

All the crossbows used on the battlefield are the ones carried by chariots, and they are more than four feet long.Generally speaking, this thing is not a single-attack weapon. It is different from bows and arrows, and it is not suitable for comparison. "

"So that's how it is." Gu Sheng's enthusiasm remained undiminished, his eyes shining brightly while holding the sleeve crossbow on his arm.

Although the range is short, it is definitely enough for her to defend herself. This weapon is tailor-made for her!

The baby seems to have to take it back to its own yard and hide it under the bed.

On the second day, when the sky lightened slightly, Gu dressed neatly, took out her precious sleeve crossbow from under the bed, and drove to the gate of the city with His Highness Ninth Prince's chariot, and joined the chariots and horses in the palace.

The cavalry team didn't arrive at the paddock until the last moment, got out of the car and went to gather in front of the camp.

Gu Sheng saw the team dressed as Xinjiang people standing not far away, and immediately probed to take a closer look——

After vaguely seeing a group of cavalry, there was a girl in a red hunting suit, sitting majestically on a horse with a whip in her hand.

Gu Sheng secretly took a deep breath, turned his head to look at His Highness Ninth Prince's expression, but he didn't expect that, separated by a few emperors, his peripheral vision just happened to bump into a pair of haggard phoenix eyes.

It's Jiang Han.

His heart tightened for a moment, Gu Sheng hurriedly lowered his head, a layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.

After calming down a bit, she calmly raised her head, met those phoenix eyes, and nodded slightly to His Highness the Second Highness.

Upon closer inspection, I felt even more apprehensive——

Jiang Han is thinner than two months ago, and his pair of phoenix eyes, which were looking forward to flying, seem to be full of vicissitudes at the moment, with a faint black and blue color under his eyes, and his lips are pale, showing a weather-beaten appearance .

After all, Gu Sheng didn't hide his emotions, and a wave of guilt surged in his chest.

In the past month, mother's letters have said that the Second Highness has been relieved, but seeing Jiang Han now, he doesn't look half relieved!

Gu Sheng frowned, not long after, His Highness Jiu noticed her gaze and turned his head to look at her.

Seeing that Gu Sheng's eyes didn't seem to be on her, Jiang Chenyue immediately looked sideways vigilantly, and sure enough, she found that the second sister was looking towards her.

Jiang Chenyue took a slight step back, accurately blocking the midpoint where the eyes of the two met, turned her head, and cleared her throat solemnly at Jiang Han, signaling "Second sister to respect herself".

Gu Sheng quickly withdrew his gaze.

At this time, Emperor Qi You spoke to the princes and nobles, and after he said some words to boost morale and promote the imperial prestige, the accompanying father-in-law came out and announced the hunting group, rules, and rewards for winning.

Naturally, Gu Sheng wanted to be with Jiang Chenyue, not afraid of holding back.

Because in previous autumns, His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince was not very willing to compete with the soldiers for victory. He never won by numbers, and only paid attention to the taste of the prey——

Non-cubs do not ejaculate, and have special preferences for nests such as suckling pigs and suckling sheep.

Gu Sheng used to think that the little scum was too lazy, but now he thinks that his husband is a very real person...

It's really pleasing to the eye no matter how you look at it.

After the eunuch on the opposite side finished reporting the rewards, the seventh prince on the other end murmured to the fifth prince, "Anal has been staring at us."

The fifth prince turned his head vigilantly and corrected: "She has been staring at me! Who told you 'we'!"

"All right..." The Seventh Prince rolled his eyes: "I'm just staring at you, that's fine."

Jiang Chenyue narrowed her pupils, turned her head and whispered: "Fifth brother, you have to restrain your temper. Didn't you see that Princess Anar still has a bow on her waist? Our fifth sister-in-law is a practicing family. If you disagree, I will kill you."

The fifth prince hurriedly waved his hands, and signaled Jiuhuangmei with his eyes to stop making trouble.

On the opposite side, the king of Xijiang was bragging for his daughter: "Anar has been good at riding and archery since she was a child, and she can penetrate Yang with fifty steps, it's no problem!"

The generals were amazed.

His Highness the Ninth Highness gloated at the Fifth Prince and whispered, "It's no problem to walk through Fifth Brother in fifty steps!"

The seventh prince couldn't help lowering his head and suppressing a smile, and the fifth prince rolled his eyes.

The king of Xijiang continued to boast: "She is also proficient in many weapons, including double spears, double swords, nine-section whips, blood drops..."

His Highness the Ninth Prince was overjoyed, looked at the Fifth Prince with distress, and jokingly said: "You can still drop blood, and take the fifth brother's head from fifty steps away!"

"Pfft..." The seventh prince looked at the fifth prince with trembling shoulders.

The Fifth Prince was also troubled and helplessly shook his head.

He knew that Anar's personality was a bit arrogant, but she would never make fun of her husband after marriage, so there was nothing to worry about.

"Stop making trouble." Jiang Han's indifferent voice came from the side, "The other end is going to select a group."

As soon as the words fell, a group of emperors stood up straight.

Whether it was the fifth prince or the others who had no idea, they all suppressed their smiles and looked at each other seriously.

The princess of Xijiang, dressed in red, rode forward and slowly walked towards the oncoming Huangjue queue.

Gu Sheng immediately raised his head and raised his chest, wishing he could stand in front of His Highness the Ninth Prince!

It's a pity that he is not tall enough, I'm afraid he can't hide the little scum's face of "disaster for the country and the people".

The fifth prince's heart was beating like thunder, and the princes beside him couldn't help but look sideways at him, wanting him to calm down a bit.

Anar got off the horse two feet away, took the rein and paced forward, and walked straight towards here.

Gu Sheng's heart was beating harder than the Fifth Prince's. Carefully measuring the angle of Anar's steps, it was a bit like facing the Seventh Prince, and also a bit like facing Jiang Chenyue...

Watching her walk over in a few steps, Gu Sheng's brow was dripping with sweat.

In the end, Anar walked up to the seventh prince, who was so frightened that the fifth prince almost turned around and slapped his seventh brother to death.

Fortunately, Anar didn't stay, but led Ma Youran around in front of several princes.

Her footsteps suddenly stopped in front of Jiang Han, the corners of her mouth curled up, her cat-like amber eyes looked at Jiang Han mischievously, and she whispered, "Are you the second princess?"

Jiang Han raised her phoenix eyes slightly, met her gaze with a blank face, and heard Anar continue: "It's strange, you nobles in the Central Plains, but the girl is more in line with my heart..."

When she said this, Anar pointedly looked at Jiang Chenyue from the corner of her eye, and a blush gradually appeared on her cheeks.

Others thought she was flirting with Jiang Han, and the fifth prince's face turned green in an instant!

Seeing that Jiang Chenyue kept her head down, Anar felt a little disappointed, so she mustered up the courage to walk over, facing His Highness Ninth Prince, and said aggressively, "Why don't you look at me?"

Those pale golden eyes suddenly lifted up, and the moment they looked at each other, Anar instinctively felt palpitations again, and her annoyance faded away!
