Lian Erye's Road to Imperial Examination

Every year before the Ching Ming Festival, the royal family will hold a hunt. After all, there is no activity for the whole winter. In April, the weather becomes much warmer. It is good for the body to go out to hunt and run.

Officials from the fourth rank and above can bring their families to participate in the spring hunting, so Jia Lian is eligible to participate.

There are many people participating in the spring hunting this year. After all, this is the first spring hunting for the second prince as the prince.

Early in the morning, a group of people set off to Xishan in a mighty manner. The scene was spectacular and lively for 10 minutes.

Jia Lian used to go hunting in the mountains with the Supreme Emperor, so he was still looking forward to the spring hunting, but when he thought that the spring hunting would be a big fight, his heart became heavy, and he was not excited about hunting at all.

In order not to be seen, Jia Lian always had an expectant and excited smile on his face.

While riding a horse, Jia Lian chatted with his colleagues. All talkers were looking forward to the spring hunt.

After walking for a long time, we finally arrived at the Xishan hunting ground.After a while, the tent was also settled down.

Because it was already noon, Emperor Longwu waved his big hand to have lunch first, and it would not be too late to hunt after lunch.

After a lively lunch and a rest, Emperor Longwu announced the start of hunting.

The second prince has just become a prince, so naturally he has to behave well when hunting.

The civil and military officials were waiting to see the second prince's jokes. You must know that the second prince has been sick since he was a child, and he has been raising his body. How could he be able to recover from riding and shooting.Especially those who support the First Prince and Fourth Prince.

"Does Jia Lian want to go together?" the second prince asked.

Jia Lian waved his hand: "Back to the prince, if you don't have good riding and shooting skills, you won't make a fool of yourself." He often hunted with the Supreme Emperor before, walking in the mountains with a bow and arrow instead of hunting on horseback.

"In this case, then go and take a look around, the scenery here is not bad."

"I wish the crown prince a triumphant return!"

The second prince smiled and set off with a group of guards.

Jia Lian had nothing to do in the afternoon, so he rode his horse for a walk around the edge of the hunting ground, and checked the surroundings by the way.

The fourth prince's people probably won't do anything today, after all, the martial law on the first day was relatively tight.

Sure enough, as Jia Lian expected, nothing happened all afternoon.

Emperor Longwu and the second prince came back from hunting safely and had a rich harvest.

The civil and military officials who originally wanted to see the second prince make a fool of themselves were disappointed. The second prince hunted more prey than Emperor Longwu.

Don't look at the thin appearance of the second prince, but he is very good at riding and shooting. Basically, arrows and arrows can be set on animals.

The soldiers and some ministers who went hunting with the second prince were all shocked by the second prince's good skill.

Judging by the performance of the second prince, he does not look like a sick child.The civil and military officials couldn't help imagining that the second prince probably had taken care of his health long ago, but it was too insidious to keep raising his head in the dark.

Seeing the performance of the second prince when he was hunting, those ministers who had doubts about the second prince changed a lot, and felt that the second prince was not so easy to mess with.

During this period of time, despite the gentleness and elegance of the second prince, the civil and military officials did not get the slightest advantage from the second prince, and their methods were really very sophisticated.

The prey hunted in the afternoon was rich, and they ate barbecue in the evening.

Emperor Longwu sat with the ministers, eating barbecue and drinking wine, very carefree.

It was lively until midnight, and everyone went back to their tents to sleep.

Just in case the fourth prince's people sneaked up at night, the emperor and the others didn't really sleep.

Jia Lian was lying on the bed, eyes open, ears pricked up to listen carefully to the movement outside the tent.

Outside a tent, the imperial guards have been patrolling and found nothing unusual.

Jia Lian stared until two or three o'clock in the morning before falling asleep. Before falling asleep, she thought that the fourth prince's people would not come to attack him.

The night was safe and sound, and the next day I woke up and continued hunting.

The second prince had just become a prince, and hunting was a good opportunity to get closer to the ministers, so the second prince naturally wanted to continue hunting.

Emperor Longwu didn't go hunting in the morning, so he called Jia Lian to play chess in his tent.

"When do you think the fourth brother will do it?"

Jia Lian put down his son and guessed: "It should be tonight." He guessed that when they were all asleep tonight, the fourth prince's people would make a move.

"I thought so too."

"Your Majesty, over there in the palace..." Jia Lian couldn't help worrying when he thought that the Supreme Emperor and the others were still in the palace, "Is there really no problem?"

"No." Emperor Longwu knew that Jia Lian was worried about the emperor's comfort, and smiled at him, "I have already made arrangements, there will be no problems in the palace."

"That's good."

"There will be nothing in the palace." He and the second child are both in Xishan, and the fourth child and the others will directly attack Xishan, and the people in the palace will not be embarrassed.

Jia Lian also thinks about it, the emperor and the prince are both in Xishan, and the four princes are basically in Xishan, not in the palace.After the emperor and the prince are settled, the fourth prince will be able to enter the palace and ascend the throne openly.

"Why don't you go hunting, kid, for fear of danger?"

"Your Majesty, I'm not good at riding and shooting." If he was good at riding and shooting, he would definitely go hunting.

"Then you have to practice hard, or you will always be nestled in a tent like a girl in the future."

Jia Lian: "..." You are the girl, and your whole family are girls.

"I must practice more in the future."

Because Emperor Longwu said that he was like a girl, Jia Lian didn't show mercy when he played chess, and killed every piece of Emperor Longwu.

Seeing that he had lost so badly, Emperor Longwu twitched his mouth fiercely: "You are really impolite." He has never lost so badly when playing chess with others.

"The emperor forgives the crime."

"You kid must blame me for saying you look like a girl just now."

Jia Lian was not embarrassed when his thoughts were seen through, so he could only smirk at Emperor Longwu.

In the next few games, Emperor Longwu didn't win any of them, and Emperor Longwu blew his beard and stared in anger.

Seeing that Emperor Longwu was very angry with him, Jia Lian was very happy and told you to say that I look like a woman.

At noon, when the second prince and the others came back, they brought back a lot of prey.

After lunch, the hunt continued in the afternoon, and nothing happened.

In the middle of the night, the unsuspecting ministers went back to their big tents and slept in a dim light, completely unaware of the imminent danger.

During Choushi, that is, at two o'clock in the morning, the Fourth Prince's men attacked the tent.

"There are assassins!" Someone screamed, breaking the silence of the Xishan hunting ground and waking up everyone in their sleep.

After a while, the Xishan hunting ground became chaotic, and the flames turned the night of Xishan into day.

Cries for help, cries of pain, and screams of panic resounded throughout the night sky of Xishan.

One-third of the imperial guards brought in were slaughtered, and when the remaining imperial guards were about to protect Emperor Longwu and the crown prince to leave, they were surrounded by groups.

"Wang Ziteng, you are so courageous!" The general who took the lead to surround Emperor Longwu and the others was Wang Ziteng.

Wang Ziteng was reprimanded by Emperor Longwu, and subconsciously feared, there was no way this was a long-standing habit, and he couldn't change it for a while.

Just when Wang Ziteng was about to speak, the fourth prince appeared in front of Emperor Longwu and the others.

"Father, Second Brother, long time no see!"

"Fourth brother, are you going to kill your father and brother?" The second prince scolded loudly with a cold face.

"Hahahahaha..." The second prince's words made the fourth prince laugh out loud.

"What are you laughing at, Nizi?"

The fourth prince laughed for a while before putting away his smile, looking at Emperor Longwu with cold resentment in his eyes: "Father, you forced me. If you hadn't made the second brother the crown prince, I would not have rebelled."

Emperor Longwu sneered: "I'm afraid you, a rebellious son, have always wanted my seat."

"Father, my eldest brother and I have worked hard these years. Even if we don't get credit, we still have to work hard. What did the second brother do?" The fourth prince was so angry that he almost vomited blood when he learned that Emperor Longwu had made the second prince the crown prince.

"Fourth brother, you and elder brother have been working for the court these years, but you are trying to win power for yourself, completely disregarding the life and death of the common people."

"Shut up, what are you? You have been recuperating in the mansion all this time, away from court, what do you know?!" The fourth prince wanted to cut the second prince to pieces.

"Fourth brother, I advise you not to mess around."

"Shut up!" The fourth prince was very jealous of the second prince, his expression twisted, "Father, what's so good about the second brother, let you do this for him?" He and the eldest brother have been fighting all these years. Making a wedding dress for the second brother, the father really loves the second brother.

"To you, what are my eldest brother and me, are they tools to be used?"

Emperor Longwu didn't answer the fourth prince's question, but said with a gloomy face: "Nizi, it's still too late to repent. For the sake of our father and son, I will let you go."

"Hahahahaha..." The fourth prince laughed wildly, "Father and son? It's really ridiculous to hear this word from you."

"Nizi, don't be ignorant of good and evil!"

"Father, at this moment, do you think I will give up?" The fourth prince sarcastically said to Emperor Zelong Wu, "I used to be stupid and naive to trust you, do you think I will trust you again?"

"Fourth brother, can you bear the charge of killing your father and brother?"

"Back then, Li Shimin killed his father and brother at the Xuanwu Gate and became emperor, which opened up the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty." The fourth prince said confidently, "What Li Shimin can do, I can naturally do it too."

Jia Lian only found it funny when he heard the fourth prince brazenly comparing himself with Tang Taizong.

When Emperor Longwu heard these words, his whole body trembled with anger.

"Father, Second Brother, in order to fulfill my prosperity, I can only sacrifice you." The fourth prince was too lazy to say anything, and directly ordered, "Do it!"

"Who dares!"

"Do it, whoever kills them, I will make him a prince."

Hearing this, Wang Ziteng no longer had any fear in his heart, picked up the knife and slashed at Emperor Longwu and the others.

The Imperial Guards guarded Emperor Longwu and the Second Prince desperately, and Jia Lian also desperately resisted with a knife.

"Be careful, Your Majesty." The Fourth Prince, who had been motionless before, picked up his bow and arrow at some point and shot an arrow at Emperor Longwu.

Seeing this scene, Jia Lian yelled loudly, then bumped Emperor Longwu away, and with a pop, he was shot in the back by a bow and arrow.

"Jia Lian!" Emperor Longwu screamed when he saw Jia Lian was shot.

Seeing that Jia Lian had been shot, the fourth prince was slightly taken aback, then took out another arrow, ready to shoot again.

"Take this bastard down to me." Emperor Longwu suddenly roared.

Soon, many soldiers poured out from all around, surrounded the fourth prince's people, and the situation changed immediately.

The fourth prince's people were frightened when they saw this scene, they never expected this to happen.

"Take down this beast and Wang Ziteng, and kill everyone else!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The fourth prince was stunned for a moment, then quickly came back to his senses, and shouted: "Get out!"

The fourth prince's people know that they can't be arrested without a fight, otherwise they will only die.If you fight hard, maybe you can survive.

It was another fierce battle, the fourth prince's men were fierce and killed many soldiers of Emperor Longwu.However, fortunately, Emperor Longwu had many soldiers and did not reverse the situation.

I don't know how long it took, almost all of the fourth prince's people were killed, and the rest were surrounded.

The moment the fourth prince was captured, he knew it was over.

The moment Wang Ziteng was captured, he looked desperate, knowing that not only the entire Wang family would be beheaded, but the nine clans would also be beheaded.

On the other side, at the palace, the fourth prince's people were also captured.

The four princes sent not many people to the palace, only 2 people, and Emperor Longwu sent 5 people to stay in the capital.Therefore, the 2 people of the four princes are no match for the 5 people left by Emperor Longwu.

Because of the early preparations, the rebellion ended quickly, and all those involved in the rebellion were imprisoned.

After Jia Lian blocked an arrow for Emperor Longwu, he passed out.Emperor Longwu asked the imperial physician to treat him quickly, only to find that the arrow was poisonous, and it was extremely poisonous. Jia Lian's life and death were on the line.

"If Jia Lian can't be cured, you guys don't even want to survive!"

When the imperial physicians heard this, their legs became weak with fright: "I will try my best to treat Mr. Jia."

It was the second prince who reacted quickly: "Father, the fourth brother may have an antidote."

When Emperor Longwu heard this, he immediately reacted: "Go to that bastard for an antidote!" Thinking that the second prince was poisoning the arrow, intending to put him to death, Emperor Longwu was both angry and chilled.

"I'm going to ask my fourth brother for it."

The second prince went to see the fourth prince and asked the fourth prince for an antidote.

The fourth prince is full of hatred for the second prince, how can he give him an antidote.

No matter how much the second prince coerces and lures, the fourth prince will not give the antidote.

When Emperor Longwu heard that the fourth prince was unwilling to give the antidote, he was so angry that he wished to cut the fourth prince to pieces.

The fourth prince was dazzled by hatred, failure, and unwillingness, so how could he give him an antidote.

Emperor Longwu went to see the fourth prince in person and offered him a condition that as long as he was willing to hand over the antidote, he would be spared his life. Unexpectedly, the fourth prince was not caring, and Emperor Longwu was so angry that he wanted to strangle him to death.

Jia Lian fell into a coma and saw the scarlet monk and the lame Taoist priest again.

"Monster, you can't escape this time." The scarlet-headed monk and the lame Taoist couldn't force Jia Lian's soul before, so they gave up temporarily.Now, taking advantage of Jia Lian's serious injury and his life hanging by a thread, he pulled Jia Lian's soul out of his body.

"You two are immortals after all. If you attack ordinary people, aren't you afraid of being punished by heaven?"

"You are not an ordinary person."

"Who says I'm not an ordinary person."

The scarlet-headed monk and the lame Taoist realized that Jia Lian's soul was indeed very ordinary, not a monster.

"You are not a monster, how could you possess Jia Lian?"

Jia Lian rolled his eyes at the skinny-headed monk and the lame Taoist priest, and said angrily, "How do I know, when I opened my eyes, I became Jia Lian."

"What was your original name?" the monk with a scarlet head asked.

"Yan Shuyun."

"Yan Shuyun?" The scarlet monk and the lame Taoist immediately calculated.

I don't know, I was taken aback.

The scarlet monk and the lame Taoist stared wide-eyed in astonishment, with dumbfounded expressions on their faces.

Seeing the stunned expressions of the scarlet-headed monk and the lame Taoist priest, Jia Lian couldn't help but thumped in his heart: "Is there something wrong?"

The scarlet-headed monk and the lame Taoist priest looked at each other, and then saluted Jia Lian.

"Sorry, we thought you were a monster possessing Jia Lian, but we didn't expect you to be an ordinary person."

"We'll take you home now."

Jia Lian looked at the skinny-headed monk and the lame Taoist priest strangely, "You all know that I'm not the real Jia Lian, why did you send me back?"

The scarlet-headed monk and the lame Taoist priest looked at each other again, and then said: "Your matter is quite special, we have no right to take your soul away."

"What do you mean?" Just now, he was going to be put to death, why should he return to Jia Lian's body now?

"You are destined to possess Jia Lian's body, we have no right to ask."

"What..." Before Jia Lian finished speaking, his soul was sent back and fell into darkness.

Jia Lian and Monk Laidou just chatted for a while, but in reality three days have passed.

Jia Lian's soul was sent back, and it didn't take long before he opened his eyes, staring blankly at the top of the tent, wondering where he was?

Suddenly there was a sharp pain in his back, and Jia Lian gasped in pain, "Hiss..."

Hearing Jia Lian's gasp, Zhuang Jingrong, who had been guarding the bed the whole time, woke up immediately. Seeing Jia Lian opened his eyes and woke up, he exclaimed in surprise, "Husband, are you awake?"

Jia Lian immediately recognized the haggard woman who appeared in sight: "Mirror look?"

Seeing that Jia Lian recognized her, Zhuang Jingrong's eyes turned red, tears rolled down the corners of his eyes, and his voice choked up: "Husband..."

Seeing that Zhuang Jingrong's face was full of tears, Jia Lian's eyes were full of distress, and he said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I made you worry." Jia Lian frowned in pain from the severe pain in his back.

"Husband, I'll call the doctor." Zhuang Jingrong rushed out, and soon came in with a white-haired old man.

Seeing that Jia Lian was awake, the old man smiled and said, "Just wake up." After speaking, he put his hand on Jia Lian's pulse.

Zhuang Jingrong stood aside nervously. After a while, seeing the old man withdraw his hand, he hurriedly asked, "Master Ning, how is your husband? Has the poison been completely cured?"

Doctor Ning smiled reassuringly at Zhuang Jingrong: "Madam, don't worry, Master Jia is fine, and he can get out of bed after a period of recuperation."

"The poison is completely cured, right?"

"Yes, the poison has been completely cured."

"Thank you, Miracle Doctor Ning." Zhuang Jingrong made a big gift to Miracle Doctor Ning.

At this time, the Supreme Emperor, Emperor Longwu, and the Second Prince all came.

Hearing that Jia Lian woke up, they rushed over immediately.

"How is Jia Lian?"

"Going back to the Supreme Emperor, Mr. Jia is fine, and he will recover after a period of recuperation."

Hearing what Divine Doctor Ning said, the Supreme Emperor and the others finally felt at ease.

The Supreme Emperor ran to the bed and saw Jia Lian struggling to get up, he quickly stretched out his hand to hold him down: "You are injured, you don't need to get up and salute."

"Grandpa Sherin."

"how do you feel?"

"It hurts!" The wound on his back was burning hot.

The Supreme Emperor said gently, "It's fine if it hurts."

Jia Lian: "..." Suddenly thinking of his situation before he fell into a coma, he asked with concern, "Where are the Fourth Prince and the others?"

"That bastard is in the death row of the Ministry of Criminal Justice."

"never mind?"

"never mind."

"That's good."

Emperor Longwu also came over, "Your boy finally woke up." After Jia Lian blocked an arrow for him, he passed out for three days and almost died, which really shocked him.

"The minister is guilty, and the emperor is worried."

"Okay, you are also trying to save me from getting hurt." If Jia Lian hadn't blocked the arrow for him, he would have been the one who almost died.

"Jia Lian, now that you are awake, we can rest assured." The second prince also came over.

"Let the prince worry."

"get well soon."

Seeing Jia Lian's sleepy look, the Supreme Emperor didn't say anything, and told Jia Lian to take a good rest first.

When Emperor Longwu left, he asked the court ladies and eunuchs to take good care of Jia Lian.
