In fact, at this time, with political stability, a strong military, and the unification of the north, Xiao Yuan's ambitions had already expanded again, and he already felt that the emperor living in the Qin Palace was an eyesore!

Although he has no intention of proclaiming himself emperor yet, his intention to abolish the Shang family has been growing day by day.

In the winter of the same year, when the Qin Dynasty was in power, local governors returned to the capital to report on their duties.

After handling a series of government affairs, Xiao Yuan issued a royal order to go hunting in Linshan three days later.

When all the ministers heard this, they first looked at each other, and then saluted in unison: "I obey -"

At the same time, the Qin Palace.

Xu Huzheng is wearing armor, with a sword hanging on his waist, and he is striding like a meteor.

In the emperor's palace.

The old eunuch ran over in a panic, bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, Xu Hu is here."

"Who!?" Shang Rui, who was half-lying beside his concubine, sat up in shock when he heard this.

"The tiger lord of Qin, Xu Hu." the old eunuch repeated.

"What!?" When he was sure, Shang Rui's face changed drastically, and he immediately panicked. He also grabbed the concubine's little hand tightly and said nervously: "Concubine, you heard it, you heard it...

"

"Oh, Your Majesty, why are you so nervous?" The concubine frowned secretly.

Shang Rui's tone changed slightly: "The person here is Xu Hu! Who is Xu Hu? He is the most powerful general under the command of King Qin! King Qin ordered him to chop off his own head, and he probably wouldn't even frown!

Now, what is the purpose of coming to the palace? What is the purpose?"

As he spoke, he turned pale again and said: "This, this, this, this, this must be under the orders of King Qin, who came to capture me..."

"Some time ago, I heard that many Qin ministers urged us to join. It seems that the ambition of the King of Qin has been clearly revealed..."

He was panic-stricken and looked like an emperor. The concubine frowned again and couldn't help but said: "Since Xu Hu is here and is outside the palace, there is no way to hide. Your Majesty, let's announce his entrance and see what his intentions are."

for."

"But, this, this." How dare Shang Rui.

Just when he was struggling for a long time, Xu Hu outside had already become impatient and barged in directly.

In his heart, he only has Xiao Yuan as his master, so he doesn't care whether Shang Rui is the emperor or not.

And his sudden intrusion made the old eunuch panic, and he subconsciously bowed his head and stepped aside.

Shang Rui swallowed hard, sat upright quickly, forced a smile on his face and said: "Hu... Hou Hou is here? I don't know why I want to see you today..."

"Your Majesty." Xu Hu bowed his hands first, and then said straight to the point: "According to the order of my king, I specially invite your Majesty to go hunting in the forest in three days. I hope your Majesty will not refuse."

"What?" Shang Rui didn't react for a while. When he came to his senses, he smiled dryly and said: "This, this, I have been feeling a little unwell in the past few days and I am afraid that I will not be able to travel. Please tell the King of Qin."

"No." Xu Huyan said concisely and concisely: "You have to go even if your Majesty goes, and you have to go even if you don't."

His words were simple, his face was cold, and he had a natural murderous aura about him.

Seeing this, Shang Rui couldn't help but slide his Adam's apple again. He paused for a moment before laughing out loud and said: "Haha, then, well, I will keep the appointment as scheduled."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xu Hu clasped his fists, bent down, and exited the hall.

As quickly as he came, he left even faster.

After she left, Shang Rui sat down limply, holding his concubine's little hand, and said sadly: "Oh my God, my concubine, you have seen how arrogant King Qin is..."

The royal family is here because of his arrogance, extravagance, and incompetence. When Chen Guo was so loyal to the royal family, he went to conquer Chen for a woman. It would be strange if he didn't die!

The concubine was too lazy to pay attention to him.

Three days later, Lin Shan.

At this moment, this place has a radius of hundreds of miles and has been under martial law for a long time.

Outside there are soldiers standing with halberds. Inside, civil and military officials gathered together, and a temporary high platform was built.

Xiao Yuan was walking side by side with Shang Rui. He was wearing a black and red royal robe without a royal crown, and his hair was tied up with a jade hairpin. Shang Rui was wearing a golden emperor's attire.

Behind them were Xu Hu, Peng Shuang, Tang Yue and other generals.

When they saw the Emperor coming, all the ministers first looked at each other, then they all bowed down, saluted and shouted:

"See your majesty, see your king——"

Xiao Yuan waved his hand casually.

The ministers straightened up, and then Ding Rong was the first to come over. He was still holding the horse's reins in his hand, and said to Xiao Yuan with a shy smile: "Your Majesty, please mount the horse."

Xiao Yuan glared at him with feigned displeasure and winked in a subtle way.

Only then did Ding Rong react and quickly faced Shang Rui again, looking respectful.

"Your Majesty, please." Xiao Yuan also said in time.

"Then I won't be polite." Shang Rui said, took the horse's reins, and got on the horse.

But as soon as he sat on it, the horse seemed to be disobedient, neighing and struggling with its hoofs.

At this time, Shang Rui became confused and panicked. If Xu Hu hadn't stepped forward to help, he might have been thrown off his horse.

When the horse's mood stabilized, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh, his face turned a little pale, and he couldn't help but said: "This horse is so strong."

Xiao Yuan smiled and said nothing more.

Ding Rong curled his lips secretly and quickly brought in a good horse.

Afterwards, Xiao Yuan turned over and greeted the ministers.

Not long after, all the civil and military officials mounted their horses and began to follow him and Shang Rui into the forest mountains to hunt.

Under the environment at that time, there were many wild animals in the mountains, especially in this forest mountain. Not only were there numerous pheasants and rabbits, but also tigers were often seen.

Not long after, a hare appeared in front. A minister behind him had sharp eyes. He immediately pointed his finger and shouted in surprise: "Please take a look, your Majesty!"

Following his instructions, not only Xiao Yuan saw it, but also Shang Rui's eyes lit up. He couldn't help but take off his treasured bow, loaded the bow with an arrow, and shot an arrow first.

It's just that his archery skills were really unbearable. When the bow string was stretched, the sharp arrow came out, but it was weak and weak. It had already hit the ground before it could reach the hare.

The hare was frightened, ran forward for a long distance, and was about to disappear from sight.

Seeing this, Xiao Yuan raised his hand slightly backward. Xu Hu understood and immediately handed over the bow and arrows.

Without any sloppiness, Xiao Yuan bent the bow in his hand and drew it to full capacity in an instant. As soon as his fingers loosened, the sharp arrow shot out, with a bang, it hit the hare's neck and nailed it to the ground!

It can be said that he is a real horse-riding monarch. After fighting all the way, he has been in the army all year round. He dare not say that he can defeat the enemy with a hundred steps, but his archery skills are not comparable to ordinary people.

Seeing the king hit the target with an arrow, all the ministers behind him were happy, and I don't know which general shouted: Long live!

Immediately afterwards, there was a loud shout:

"Long live! Long live -"

The whole scene was filled with shouts and people raised their arms in excitement.
Chapter completed!
