Chapter 52
Chapter 52
Xuan He thought to himself that if you hadn't stood outside my tent in the middle of the night, I would have gone to bed early.
After tossing and going back and lying down again, I didn't feel sleepy anymore.
After turning over three times, Xuan He gave up struggling and simply lay down with his eyes open, wondering why Xie Chun came to him in the middle of the night?
Seeing Xie Chun's appearance, it seemed that he didn't intend to call him. If he didn't get up, he probably didn't know he was here.
Xuan He was thinking about this in a daze, and he didn't close his eyes until it was dawn. As soon as he fell asleep, the bustle outside started, and he was about to set off.
Xuanhe didn't sleep well yesterday, he went out for a ride after breakfast and came back yawning, because he was sleepy and his mind was groggy.
He returned to the tent and fell asleep, but the noise outside was particularly obvious. Xuan He covered his head with the quilt annoyedly, and got bored out after a while.
After repeating it several times, his complexion became more and more ugly, and he scolded Xie Chun fifty times in his heart. If he hadn't stood outside the tent last night to be scary, he wouldn't have slept well.
At noon, many people returned to the camp, Xuanhe washed his face, and finally became sober.
Turning around, he saw Bailihui approaching, looking very happy, Xuan He thought, as expected, young people love to roam around.
There was a deer at his feet, Xuanhe was a little surprised: "You brought it?"
In fact, there are not many deer in the hunting grounds, not to mention that they are still on the outskirts, and I don't know where they got them.
"Huh?" Bailihui glanced at the deer at his feet, and denied, "It's not me, just now General Zhao from Yanwang's mansion came and said that he had offended me last night."
Xie Chun?
Xuan He didn't care about the meaning of his words, and reflexively looked at the deer, and he was relieved after confirming that it was dead. It seemed that it was an extra meal.
It was Xie Chun's fault last night, he received the compensation with peace of mind, not only ate it himself, but also borrowed flowers to present to the Buddha, and sent most of it to the emperor.
Xuanhe was not the first person to send something, but he was still the first person worthy of Eunuch Fang's special appeal. After hearing this, the emperor said to the imperial concubine, "When did he have the ability?"
The noble concubine smiled: "Perhaps I borrow flowers to offer Buddha."
As for where to borrow the flowers, it doesn't matter, it is Xuanhe's wish.
Xuanhe really didn't have the ability to do this, and Bailihui came here for this purpose.The reason he wasn't with Xuanhe these days was because Xuanhe sent him to the guard camp.
Most of the guards in the camp are imperial guards, and there are also personal guards from various houses. They are responsible for guarding the hunting grounds. There are also competitions. Those who have the most harvest in the past few days will be rewarded by the emperor.
Xuanhe sent him there to teach him to stand out, but Bailihui didn't forget his level, he lowered his voice: "Today's subordinates are not on duty, how about going hunting with you?"
"It's not as good as He." Xuan He thought of what he said about not being on duty, and asked, "Did you take a shift last night?"
Bailihui nodded.
"Go to rest."
Bailihui wanted to say more, but Xuanhe waved his hand: "Is there anything I want? If you really want to, get the first prize, and it will be considered a face for me."
Bailihui clasped his fists: "I will not disgrace my life."
If he really wants to do it, he won't be able to hit anything, but he always has some burdens in his heart, these are wild animals.
It's fine for others to do it, but he can't do it himself.
After eating, drinking and resting enough, Xuanhe was going to go for a walk in the woods, but was interrupted by Xie Chun yesterday, he hadn't spoken to Xie Ji yet.
After asking Xie Ji's direction to go out today, Xuanhe took people to look for him.
The morning after he came out, he had already hunted quite a few things, and the two guards behind him were immediately full of prey.
Xuan He raised his eyebrows, looking at prey big and small, Xie Ji followed his line of sight, remembered what he said yesterday that he was not good at hunting, he was a little embarrassed, and was about to explain that the guards hunted them, so he stopped Xuan and said earnestly : "Your Majesty, you have to do a full set of acting."
Xie Ji: ...
This time it was not so embarrassing.
They walked together and did not hold back their voices. Some animals on the road ran away when they saw them.
Xie Ji didn't ask him why he didn't come yesterday.He waited for a long time yesterday, thinking that Xuanhe was just being polite to him, and was going to find another opportunity to communicate again, but he didn't expect the opportunity to come so soon.
Xuan He reined in his horse suddenly, and Xie Ji also stopped. There was a pheasant more than ten feet away. This is a very common animal. Xie Ji even hunted one this morning.
The pheasant is also called the colorful golden pheasant, and its feathers are gorgeous and colorful, otherwise Xuanhe would not have noticed.Seeing that he didn't intend to do anything, Xie Ji thought about what he said about his poor archery skills, so he bent his bow and set up an arrow to aim at the chicken.
Before the bow was fully drawn, he let go again: "Do you want it?"
Xuan He said casually, "The feathers are quite pretty."
Xie Ji asked, "Want to live?"
"Can you control life and death at this distance?"
It's not too far, but it's too close. The golden pheasant is small in size, and it's basically dead with an arrow.
Xie Ji shook his head sincerely: "No, you can try if you want."
Xuanhe: ...
This way he knew that Xie Ji's level was about the same as Xie Feng's.
Speaking of Xie Feng, his fiancée also came, presumably to show off that he is very interested in hunting these days when he leaves early and returns late.
Xie Ji shot an arrow, the pheasant made no sound, and the guards passed by
Xuan He glanced at it, and found that the air intake was less and the air output was more, and it was estimated that he would not survive.
Xie Ji said, "Don't you want hair? Pull it out while it's hot."
Xuanhe: ...
Looking at Xie Ji without a word, he refused: "No need."
The feathers grow on chickens and look good. If you really take them back and put them in the palace, they will be neither fish nor fowl.
Others use peacock feathers, but he inserts pheasant feathers?
The county prince still wants to save face.
Xie Ji asked him: "Are you listening to opera?"
Xuan He understood that the headgear used in singing used all kinds of bird feathers. If there is a character he likes, sending it over is considered a favor.
With their identities, sending some gadgets can win over people better than giving money.
Xuanhe shook his head.
Xie Ji said: "It is said that you are the top dandy in the capital, but I have never seen you do any dandy things. How did you get this reputation?"
Naturally, it was because he was really a dude.
"I thought you should know."
Xie Ji thought that when he came to the capital, everyone supported him, but Xuanhe was the only one who opposed him everywhere.
The most important thing is not what he did, but no matter what he did, someone will take care of him.Dude, isn't it the father who fights?
His father is the emperor, the number one rich man in the capital, and he deserves his name.
"I heard that the prince of the county is very close to the princess of Xiliang?"
Xuanhe glanced at him: "Some business dealings, why ask this?"
Xie Ji tentatively said: "The princess is beautiful..."
"you like her?"
"Not at all."
Xie Ji was a little entangled, as if he was trying to change how to say it, but Xuanhe was not in a hurry, and waited patiently.
Xie Ji knew that his elder brother had always been in contact with Xiliang, but this matter could not be called collaborating with the enemy and treason. After all, they could not get their hands in Liangzhou or the capital.
It doesn't seem to have any effect on Dayong, and if it's really put on the table, it's just that the two clans have contacts.
He didn't think there was anything wrong in the past, the Muqi clan had always been friends with many parties, and in western Yunnan, even for the Zhennan Palace, this local snake should not be underestimated.
He was uneasy because when he came to Beijing, his father told him to pay more attention to Xiliang, and if there was any accident, he would stay in the capital and remember his surname was Xie.
When he asked about the accident again, his father refused to say anything.
Xie Ji considered for a while, and decided not to make excuses anymore: "I want to see her, I wonder if the prince can introduce her for me."
Xuan He nodded in response, thoughtful, he thought that Jianaren and Xie Ji were two different things, but now these two seemingly unrelated people seem to be getting in touch.
Does Xie Chun know?
Xuan He did not refuse the chicken that Xie Ji gave him, and walked back with his guards, Xie Ji did not accompany him, he had to go a little further.
Hunting grounds at night have great risks and more opportunities.
If you are looking for excitement, or if you want to get a reward from the emperor, you can also choose to hunt at night.
Xuanhe is not interested.
Xie Ji is not short of those rewards, he is for the reputation of Zhennan Palace.
Xuanhe thought for a while, who earned the face of the royal family, the second and third children are actually not very good at it, and the sixth child is not bad, but if Xie Chun is willing to participate, there will be no suspense.
When Xuanhe saw Xie Chun, he thought he was dazzled, and he led the horse from the end of the forest alone, with no guards behind him.
When passing by, Xuan He held the rein with both hands and did not look sideways. Xie Chun stretched out his hand to hold his rein. Brother Yu stopped and raised his head to struggle slightly.
"Ahe."
Xuan He noticed that there were no more arrows in his quiver, and the guards should have gone back with their prey.
Tuo Yuge's blessing, Xuan He rode a horse much higher than Xie Chun, looked at him from top to bottom: "What are you doing?"
"Don't go there."
Xuan He raised his eyes and looked ahead, the light was much better than the forest, but the sparse trees blocked his sight, Xuan He only knew that there was a lake not far away.
What happened?
"What happened ahead?"
"Changing the road."
"..."
Xuanhe didn't want to communicate with him anymore, and was about to leave, but Xie Chun grabbed the reins, and Brother Yu couldn't leave.
From here, they can walk along the shore of the lake to the opposite side to reach the camp, but if they go around from the other end, they don't know how much time it will take.
"What are you crazy about?"
Xie Chun looked up at him with calm eyes.After a while, he let go of the rein and no longer restrained him, just reminded: "Go slowly."
Without the shackles, Brother Yu happily stomped forward. Xuanhe couldn't help but look back at Xie Chun. He stood where he was, as if he was sure that he would come back.
Oddly enough, Xuan He got off his horse, walked out slowly, and guessed what was going on.
Soon he knew what was going on. Not far away, two tightly embracing bodies entangled and kissed passionately, making ambiguous sounds.
Look no further.
Xuan He turned his head calmly, touched his hot cheeks, and took a deep breath.
The two guards behind him followed him step by step, not knowing whether they saw him or not.Xuanhe returned to Xie Chun, wanting to ask him why he didn't speak up earlier.
I also found this topic really difficult to talk about.
The mixed panting sounds seemed to be right next to his ears, and the air in the forest became suffocated.It stands to reason that it should not be heard here.
Maybe an illusion.
Xie Chun was still indifferent, Xuanhe looked at the tree above his head, looked at the soil under his feet, stroked Brother Yu's mane, and felt that the time was really hard.
"How long?"
"I don't know."
Xuan He nodded indiscriminately.
His two guards were also silent, watching his nose, nose and heart.
Silence again.
Xuan He looked into the depths of the forest, thinking whether to stay outside for the night just like Xie Ji did.
When I come back tomorrow, I should be clean anyway.
He was thinking wildly, a warm hand covered his hand holding the rein, Xuan He curled his fingers and did not break free.
Xie Chun led the rare and well-behaved person outside.
After leaving the forest, there were no strange sounds this time, and Xuan He heaved a sigh of relief.
Thinking of the embarrassing situation just now, I couldn't help complaining: "The sky is sitting on the ground, isn't it cold?"
Xie Chun said, "It won't be cold."
Xuan He choked for a moment, he just said something casually, why retort so seriously?
He wanted to say how do you know, but felt that he shouldn't say more on this topic.Their relationship is far from innocent, and the topic is a bit dangerous.
He stopped talking, and Xie Chun was not a talkative person, so he led him forward quietly.
Xuanhe took a look at the hands they held, whether they broke away or not, at this time they should avoid disputes.
The more Xuanhe walked, the more he felt that this place looked familiar, he hesitated and said, "I seem to have been here before."
"came."
Xie Chun gave him an affirmative answer.
As soon as he mentioned Xuanhe, he remembered that this lake was the place where Xuanhe fell into the water.
That was the first time he came to Qiushou with him.
Xuanhe was young, the imperial concubine was worried that he would be alone in the palace, the Mu family had just had a baby, and the family was busy, so it was inconvenient to send him there.With a wave of the emperor's imperial pen, Shen Xuanhe was added to the accompanying list.
In order to bring up adopted sons logically, he also added several biological sons.
It seems that the entire responsibility of the emperor to his sons is to hire teachers for them and give them money, and other than that, it is basically to raise them.
The others who have mothers are better, but Xie Chun, who has no mother, is always being bullied.
After leaving the palace, this kind of bullying not only did not stop but intensified. After all, the venue for activities is bigger and there are more things that can be caused.
The older princes wanted to show off their skills in Qiushou, and they were not with their younger brothers.
The fifth child became more and more unscrupulous when he played tricks on Xie Chun. If they were here, they wouldn't really ask Xie Chun to go down.
No matter what, he is still a prince, brothers can fight and fight but there must be a sense of proportion.
When such a big event happened, someone would naturally report to the imperial concubine, Xuanhe listened to it, and knew that something happened to Seventh Brother, so he insisted on going with him.
Not far away, the guards insisted on holding him and riding over.
The memory is a little fuzzy, but the picture of him sitting on Xie Chun's body and giving him CPR is becoming clearer.
It was not appropriate to say that CPR was not appropriate, not to mention that he didn't have the strength to press, at that time he didn't even know what it was, but he just followed the sporadic pictures in his memory and did the two movements according to the gourd.
What about artificial respiration, not to mention that he simply put his mouth on his mouth and kissed Xie Chun several times.
Kiss, Xie Chun, several times.
Xuanhe suddenly felt that the presence of the people around him became stronger.
Xuan He quietly looked at the person beside him, guessing how likely it was that he still remembered this matter.
He should have remembered that Xie Chun was older than him, and he almost died, so the impression should be deeper.
His behavior at that time was actually very strange. Would Xie Chun ask? If he asked, he would say that the way to save people is to go to school with broken papers, but children have no standards.
Xuan He secretly calculated and prepared a standard answer, but Xie Chun didn't say anything.
Xie Chun naturally knew that Xuanhe was saving him at that time.
Everyone present knew that Xuanhe was saving him, using a method that none of them knew.
This is not surprising, Ah He always has a lot of strange ideas.
He slightly tightened the hand holding Xuanhe, while restraining himself from tightening it any further.
At first, he didn't regard Xuanhe as his younger brother, but Ahe always called him elder brother, only his elder brother.
