I’m Determined To Be the Dark Moonlight - Chapter 75
“Your Majesty,” Wei Ying reminded her kindly when she saw her in a daze, “Aren’t you thirsty? Drink some water.”
Yun Shao took the kettle in a daze, lowered his head and pursed his lips and smiled, holding the kettle reluctant to drink.
After so much delay, thinking about it, she couldn’t compete with the imperial concubine, so Wei Ying gave up the idea of competing with the imperial concubine, tied the reins to the tree next to her, and came to the emperor’s side, and she sat together on the rocks.
Underfoot, the spring water is flowing.
Wei Ying lay back and put his hands behind his head, watching the beam of light pass through the dense forest, illuminating the slightly yellowed leaves on the treetops, the sun worked hard for a midsummer, and finally succeeded in scorching the leaves.
Yun Shao followed her gaze and saw the bleak and dead leaves in the autumn. He smiled and said lightly: “Yingying is from Jiangnan. I heard that even in autumn, the leaves in Jiangnan are still green, right?”
Wei Ying nodded, then added: “But it also depends on the species.”
“Jiangnan,” Yun Shao said in a low voice, with a faint smile on his face, picked up a dead branch at his feet, and held it in his hand, “I’ve been to Jiangnan. It’s good there, isn’t it?”
Wei Ying smiled, “It’s also very good.”
Yun Shao lowered his head, the dead branches fiddled with the stone crevices at will, and withered yellow grass grew out of the cracks, and the roots of his ears were red and he said, “There is a warbler.”
Wei Ying stood up and tilted her head to look at her, “Isn’t it Your Majesty?”
Yun Shao lowered his head even lower and said, “That’s why it’s not good.”
Yingying is good, Jiangnan is good; and she is not good, so Shengjing is not good.
As soon as Yun Shao encountered Guan Weiying, his mind was as simple as a child’s. She remembered that she always stood in the sun in her memory, and then looked at the girl in front of her, clenched the dead branches, and couldn’t help but want to shrink herself behind the little grape vine.
Weiying frowned, sat up, rubbed her head, got on the horse again, and stretched out her hand to the emperor: “Come on, let’s go out!”
Yun Shao held her hand, and she was pulled onto the horse, grabbed the corner of Wei Ying’s clothes, and sat obediently behind the horse.
Wei Ying led the emperor out of the jungle on horseback, and encountered several fleeing beasts along the way. She raised her hand to “shoot” an arrow, only to find that her quiver was empty. Yun Shao tenderly gave his quiver: “Yingying use me.”
She is still using it.
Weiying waved her hand: “Forget it, it doesn’t count anyway.”
When “shooting” the hunt, everyone’s arrows are marked. She doesn’t count the prey she hits with the emperor’s feather arrow. It’s better to let some wild animals survive.
Running to the paddock, the guards quickly surrounded him.
“Your Majesty, what about you!” Eunuch Fushou couldn’t ride a horse, and when he saw them, he ran over from the hillside with tears on his face.
Yun Shao said with a smile: “I have nothing to do, I went hunting with Yingying.”
Wei Ying threw the deer on the ground, Fu Shou saw that the feather arrow on it was specially made for the emperor, and shouted with great joy: “Your Majesty’s “shot” hit the deer! It’s Your Majesty’s “shot”!”
Every time his family “shoots” it is best to “shoot” His Majesty the rabbit, and finally enough to “shoot” the deer!
Fu Shou “showed” the old father’s happy smile, and happily let the deer be carried down, cooked the prey into meat dishes according to the custom, and presented it to the emperor at the dinner.
Wei Ying wanted to leave, but suddenly she heard someone ask, “Hey, the prince has been in for so long, why did he come out?”
She tilted her head and found that she was speaking to the captain of the guard, who had never seen a face before, so she smiled at the person and kindly reminded: “Maybe you can go in and find the prince, um… he’s lost.”
The guards looked at each other and looked at each other blankly. After obtaining the emperor’s acquiescence, they entered the jungle to search for King Luling and his horse.
After a long time, Pei Que also ran out of the dense forest. When he saw Wei Ying, he raised his eyebrows and smiled, waved his whip, and rushed down from the hillside: “Yingying, what did you hunt? Come on!”
Wei Ying spread her hands, turned her body sideways, and let her look at the deer behind her.
Pei Que was startled, and then smiled: “No, you are so unlucky that you only hunted one deer?”
Wei Ying pulled out the arrow, and the golden arrow showed that it belonged to the emperor alone, “It’s your majesty hunting.”
Yun Shao bent his eyebrows and said sweetly beside him, “It’s also Yingying hunting.”
Pei Que: …
She hated Tie Buchenggang and glanced at Wei Ying, bah, Ying Ying actually started to “fascinate” with the demon king, and she didn’t do her right job!
“Yingying, you don’t recognize it at all,” Pei Que angrily pinned the bow and arrow behind his horse and hummed, “It doesn’t mean anything.”
Wei Ying beckoned, motioned her to come closer, leaned into her ear and whispered, “It doesn’t matter if I can hunt an evil dragon.”
Pei Que was surprised for a moment: “What do you mean?”
Wei Ying whispered a few words to her quietly, and mentioned the matter of King Luling, Pei Que’s face changed from surprise to happiness, and finally couldn’t help laughing, punched Wei Ying, and praised: “What do you think? , why don’t you call me funny?”
Weiying: “I’ll call you next time.”
Pei Que was in high spirits, and his eyebrows danced, “Okay, don’t forget that Yingying!”
Wei Ying nodded with a smile: “I don’t forget, I will definitely call you.”
Pei Que took her by the shoulders and walked with her to the paddock: “That’s okay, the second leader will let you. I can’t compare to you as a hermaphrodite, hahaha, comfortable!”
Thinking of the intersex person being rectified, the imperial concubine felt very comfortable!
On one side, she caught a glimpse of the emperor standing beside her, rubbing the corners of her golden sleeves and looking at them resentfully.
Pei Que: …
Why do you feel that the emperor is becoming more and more like a “wife”?
She thought, maybe it was the yin and yang qi passed down by the emperor’s family.
In the afternoon, the sun will be dark, and a red sun will hang on the top of the mountain, dyeing the peaks a deep red.
The guards finally found the unkempt King Luling who had been tossing around in the forest for a day and took him to the paddock.
“My lord, I’ll take you to rest,” said the former captain of the guard.
The King of Luling’s mouth was dry and he was helped forward, recognizing that his face was familiar, “Are you, the descendant of the mother?”
The captain of the guard gave him a meaningful look.
The King of Luling was too tired, and now he just wanted to bury himself in hot water for a good bath, eat a full meal, and then sleep. It’s a pity that on the way, they met Father Fu Shou.
Fu Shou walked over with a smile, and when he saw the Queen of Luling, he shouted and cared about it falsely: “My lord! How did you look like this? My God, your clothes are all torn, have they been hung by a branch?”
King Luling smiled weakly: “Father-in-law, what’s the matter?”
Fu Shou smiled and explained the business: “Your Majesty said, after the lord comes, hurry to the paddock for the banquet. The meat has just been roasted, and everyone is waiting for the lord.”
The King of Luling was silent for a long time before he said: “Father-in-law, please tell your majesty, just say that I am not feeling well and will not go.”
Fushou: “But Your Majesty insists that the lord go, saying that it is a good day. If the lord is here, she will not be able to eat. If the lord does not come to eat the first bite of barbecue, everyone will not have to eat it, and several concubines are also waiting for the prince. Woolen cloth.”
King of Luling: …
The officials accompanying him were all waiting for him, and one of them would blow up the Pei family’s daughter when his temper was so strong that he was so powerful that he pulled the weeping willows upside down, terrifying the palace concubine, and almost wanted to “shoot” him into a sieve lunatic.
He is not afraid of those officials and the emperor, but he is extremely afraid of the monster concubine in the emperor’s harem.
It was a group of what and what. He suspected that the emperor had collected the most terrifying women in Dasheng and put them in the harem.
Fu Shou smiled and said, “My lord, our family will lead you the way.”
King Luling looked at his tattered clothes and struggled: “Will you let me change clothes?”
Fushou nodded, not waiting for Luling Wang Xing, and said: “Our family naturally doesn’t care, but a few mothers are hungry, and they are waiting for the prince.”
Several women with fierce eyes appeared in King Luling’s mind, their calves softened, and they only stood firm with the help of the guards next to them. He shivered and asked Fushou: “Want to wait for me when you’re hungry?”
Are they going to take him for a drink?
“Father-in-law, do you have to come as soon as you say I go?”
Eunuch Fushou looked at him in surprise: “Of course you have to come, what did the lord say?”
King Luling held back his tears sadly.
Don’t bow your head, the crown will fall, don’t cry, the guild will laugh. Father-in-law has no idea what he has endured!
He waited for Eunuch Fushou to turn around and lead the way and distanced himself from him, before Xiaohe Empress Dowager sent over the head guard and said, “You, you must protect me!”
The head guard nodded: “Yes, don’t worry.”
King Luling twitched his lips: “I can’t rest assured.”
If anyone saw that night when the girl hit the big tree at the mouth of the bowl and smashed it into the middle, who would feel at ease like him when a piece of clothing was “shot” into a sieve by an arrow?
The head guard frowned indistinctly, thinking to himself, the prince is a man anyway, and his courage is too small, like a rat.
Isn’t it necessary to be so scared that the whole person is trembling just to have a meal?
Bonfires are held in the paddock.
On the fire was a roasted deer. Sitting around were the accompanying ministers, the palace concubines were in the front, and the emperor and Weiying sat on the top seat.
Seeing King Luling coming, the ministers couldn’t help lowering their heads and whispering.
“Is it the King of Luling?”
“Isn’t it right, how did King Luling become like this? Isn’t he a beggar?”
“Isn’t it just a hunt, how do you make yourself look like a picture? I often hear that others praise the king of Luling for his civil and military skills, and it does not seem to be the case now.”
King Luling’s head was congested, he endured the humiliation and bear the burden, and silently recited in his heart “Heaven will give great responsibility to the people of this country”, and sincerely greeted the emperor.
The emperor laughed, walked down the stage and came to him, holding a cold light flashing knife in his hand.
The knife was thin and long, like a willow leaf, illuminated by the bonfire next to it, refracting and “shooting” a cold light.
With a smile on his face, the emperor walked towards him step by step, rubbing the handle of the knife with his thin white fingers.
At that moment, King Luling once again recalled the fear of being chased and killed in the afternoon, his knees softened, and he knelt down in front of the emperor: “I beg your majesty to spare my life, and I beg your majesty to spare my life!”
The surrounding officials were surprised, the laughter stopped, and there was a dead silence.
The emperor lifted the King of Luling up, “What do you mean? I just want to give the king a piece of venison.”
Saying that, he smiled “yin”, “yin”, took a knife and cut a piece of oily grilled meat, and placed it on a silver plate.
King Luling stretched out his hand to pick it up, but the emperor staggered his hand and asked someone to give the first piece of meat to the impatient girl sitting next to his dragon chair.
The King of Luling reached out his hand and took it, crying and thinking: Lie to me.
A black thief!
The accompanying ministers bowed their heads and had a small conversation: “I heard that King Luling is a good-looking, sturdy and strong man, look at it now, tsk.”
“Haha, my dear friend didn’t know that King Luling danced at the last palace banquet. I heard people describe it as a charming and charming person.”
“What did he do in the fief for six years?”
“Shh, heaven’s family matters, why are you and me talking about it, and then I’m going to lose my head.”
…
King Luling clenched his fists and thought aggrievedly that he was miserable enough to understand.
The second, third, and fourth pieces of meat were also given to the King of Luling, and handed to the noble concubine Li Concubine and Xiao Qianxue.
King Luling objected to this, and he was even willing to give up his share of meat to Xiao Qianxue, lest the strange girl would not be able to eat enough to destroy any flowers and plants.
In the end, the emperor finally cut a quick roast meat for King Luling, put it on a silver plate, and handed it to him with a smile: “It’s what you want, how about sending it to you?”
King Luling met her black eyes, and couldn’t help but bow his head. He didn’t dare to answer for a while, but he always felt what the emperor meant, so he just took his head.
The emperor lowered his eyes, and the venison on the silver plate was roasted to golden brown and smelled fragrant.
She sneered: “Chasing the deer, huh. People say that it’s good to have a lot of things, and they are rushing to give up their “life”… Is it okay? I can’t see it.”
King Luling bowed his head and listened tremblingly, not daring to speak.
It was the emperor who finally shoved the dish of deer meat into his hands, turned around to his seat, and leaned against the demon concubine lazily, revealing his true appearance.
Yun Shao opened his mouth and turned his head.
Wei Ying skillfully fed her a piece of barbecue.
Yun Shao was happy, glanced at the noble concubine next to her, and found that she was engrossed in eating meat, paying attention at all.
Just, I’m so angry, I feel that the revenge on the carriage is still revenge.
After eating the barbecue, the emperor will give a prize to the person who has the most prey in the next “shoot”. According to the number, it should be the imperial concubine who won the top spot. The imperial concubine wanted to give the reward to Wei Ying, but Wei Ying declined.
She didn’t care about any prizes, she just played it as a game.
The emperor gave the imperial concubine a bow and arrow made of bones representing the Medal of Victory. After reaching Wei Ying’s side, he lowered his voice and said, “I also prepared a prize for you.”
Wei Ying was curious: “What is it?”
Yun Shao rolled his eyes, his cheeks flushed slightly, leaned a little closer, rubbed Wei Ying’s ears, and said softly, “Tonight Yingying will come to my room, and I will show it to Yingying in person.”
