"Didn't the fifth young master say that he won't go hunting today? Why did he go again?" Pomegranate said in confusion.
Sugar Baby: "...I want to know too."
Because he was afraid that Fifth Brother would be worried, Tangbao did not tell Su Laowu about his assassination.
Su Laowu was a scholar, not a military commander, and he only participated in hunting out of curiosity.
What's more, after two days, the number of prey killed by Prince Rong and Prince Xiao of Northern Qi was far ahead.
It will be difficult for others to catch up, unless a miracle occurs.
Su Laowu had no intention of competing for ranking. After knowing that there were tigers and wolves in the woods, he was afraid that his sister and Princess Hua Ning would worry, so he said he would not go hunting in the woods.
Unexpectedly, when she saw Princess Hua Ning this morning and touched the little white fox held by Princess Linghua, she thought of going into the forest to try her luck.
What if you can hunt a white fox yourself?
Su Laowu didn't expect that he would actually encounter a white fox.
However, this white fox ran extremely fast.
So, in order to chase the white fox, Su Laowu unknowingly moved away from the outside world.
"My lord, we can't chase any further!" A guard stopped Su Laowu on horseback and said seriously: "The princess has told me that there may be danger in the forest, so please don't go deep into it!"
Su Laowu also calmed down after listening to the guard's words.
I couldn't help but think of the tigers and wild wolves that King Rong and others hunted yesterday.
There are so many large game animals in the royal hunting grounds, which is a bit abnormal.
"Let's go back!" Su Laowu pulled the reins of the horse and was about to go back.
"ah!"
"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding..."
Screams and the sound of weapons clashing came faintly from a distance.
Su Laowu looked stern.
The two guards also looked nervous.
"roar!"
Suddenly, a tiger roar sounded.
"Pullingleng..."
Birds were flying in the trees.
The horse that Su Laowu sat down on was frightened, roared loudly, and rushed out with its hooves raised.
Su Laowu swayed and almost fell off his horse.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly and managed to stabilize his body.
"grown ups!"
"grown ups!"
The two guards were startled, slapped their horses and chased after him.
Su Laowu leaned down and hugged the horse's neck tightly to prevent himself from falling.
Yesterday, Zheng Ziqian, the son of Zheng Shoufu's family, broke his leg and was taken away. He did not want to follow in Zheng Ziqian's footsteps.
In other words, Su Laowu can hold a pen and carry a hoe, but his riding skills can only be said to be average.
I really have no clue about this frightened horse.
I can only hope that the horse will get tired and stop on its own.
As the sound of fighting became clearer and louder, Su Laowu saw two groups of people fighting from a distance.
A group of people were dressed in black and had their faces covered. You didn't need to guess to know that they were shady.
The other group of people are uniformly dressed and well-trained, and they are the Royal Guards.
After Su Laowu saw the Imperial Guards, he lay on his horse and glanced around, and saw the back of Emperor Tianxi who was being guarded by the Imperial Guards.
The emperor was actually assassinated! Su Laowu was shocked.
The arrival of Su Laowu naturally did not affect the fighting between the two groups.
However, it was different when a big tiger with an eye-catching white forehead suddenly appeared across from Su Laowu.
The imperial guards present panicked, shouting "protect the emperor" and wanted to retreat to Emperor Tianxi's side.
However, the man in black was not affected by the tiger at all, and the fight became more and more fierce.
The tiger went straight towards Emperor Tianxi, and the forest guards in front of Emperor Tianxi waved their swords to stop him.
At this time, feather arrows shot towards Emperor Tianxi with a sound of breaking through the air.
There were both tigers and feathered arrows, and the imperial guards around Emperor Tianxi could not withstand them.
Seeing a feathered arrow, which was not knocked down by the imperial guards, heading straight for Emperor Tianxi, Su Laowu sat down and rushed over on his frightened horse.
"emperor!"
Su Laowu shouted and jumped from his horse in front of Emperor Tianxi.
At the same time, a dagger in his hand also pierced the horse's butt.
"Whoosh!"
"ah!"
Su Laowu screamed in pain, and the arrow hit his arm.
"Bang!"
"Crack!"
"Crack!"
The tiger and the frightened horse collided and fell to the ground with broken bones.
Especially the majestic big tiger was injured during the leap and fell to the ground with a "snap".
Naturally, the frightened horse also fell to the ground.
The two groups who were fighting were stunned by this turn of events and were stunned for a moment.
There is no other way. Who would have thought that a horse would be so bold as to dare to run into a tiger and fight to the death?
This simply goes against animal instinct!
Little did they know that the horse was frightened and suffered a sudden pain on its buttocks. Regardless of whether it was a tiger in front of it or not, it rushed forward based on instinct, and then happened to bump into the leaping tiger.
As luck would have it, the horse's head and the tiger's head bumped into each other.
So, the tiger's skull was cracked and he lay on the ground unable to get up.
The same thing happened to the frightened horse, its neck was almost broken.
With a neighing sound, the horse spurted a mouthful of blood from its mouth.
Su Laowu endured the pain, got up from the ground, and saluted Emperor Tianxi.
"My rescue came late, please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Only then did Emperor Tianxi regain his composure, and quickly stretched out his hand to help Su Laowu, and said in shock: "Su Aiqing did a great job in rescuing the driver, so what crime is she guilty of?"
After saying that, he helped Su Laowu up.
He opened his eyes, but still couldn't help but glanced at the King of Beasts who was lying on the ground, taking a breath and reluctant to swallow it.
It can be said that Tiger appeared very majestic, but - he died before his ambition was fulfilled.
Just yelled and that was it.
Emperor Tianxi naturally saw the dagger on the horse's butt on the ground.
He had seen this dagger before.
During the barbecue yesterday, he saw Su Laowu using this dagger to pare the leg of lamb.
Emperor Tianxi thought for a moment and guessed that Su Laowu had stabbed him deliberately.
Therefore, I greatly appreciated Su Laowu's bravery and wit.
Sure enough, he is worthy of being Dayan's new top scholar.
Both literary talent and scheming are top-notch.
"Su Aiqing is a rare genius with both wisdom and courage." Emperor Tianxi couldn't help but praise her.
Su Laowu had an arrow stuck in his arm and was sweating from the pain. After listening to Emperor Tianxi's words, his face turned pale and he said modestly: "Your Majesty is ridiculously complimenting me, and I cannot bear it."
This is the future father-in-law whom he wants to curry favor with. How dare Su Laowu dare to be so arrogant?
Emperor Tianxi and Su Lao's five monarchs and ministers were chatting with each other, and then they started fighting again on the court.
"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding..."
"ah!"
"Ouch——"
As a wolf howled, wild wolves jumped out of the woods.
Behind the wild wolves, there are cheetahs, wild boars, badgers, wild goats, sika deer...
Su Laowu's expression suddenly changed.
These prey will definitely not appear here spontaneously!
Because this is unreasonable!
Thinking again about the tiger just now, Su Laowu understood in his heart.
"Your Majesty, this place is dangerous, you must leave quickly!" Su Laowu stepped in front of Emperor Tianxi and said in a deep voice.
Emperor Tianxi couldn't help but feel deeply moved when he saw Su Laowu, who had been injured trying to save himself, and now seemed ready to risk his life to protect him.
