Song Yi

Chapter 269
When a girl is angry, she must not coax her to the end, that will not work well, and the best way is to distract her.Soon the grievance just now will be forgotten.Du Wenhao used this trick to deal with Pang Yuqin just now, and now he is repeating his old trick. He changed the subject by saying, "So the eldest princess is going to hunt? Is there no companion? I can do it. My family has been a hunter for three generations. Shooting big eagles with bows is a piece of cake!"

The queen wondered: "Three generations of hunters? I thought your ancestors also practiced medicine. Isn't your medical skills passed down from your ancestors?"

Du Wenhao was taken aback, and tried to make a lie: "Ah, yes, of course my medical skills are inherited from my ancestors, but I said that three generations of hunters in my family, ah, this, hunters can also learn medicine, and those who study medicine can also hunt Well, my ancestor was both a hunter and a doctor, and he was very good at treating bruises."

"Oh..." The queen clapped her hands and smiled, "That's right, many hunters will heal some bruises."

The eldest princess had stopped crying, and gave him a sideways glance with tears in her eyes: "Are you really good at hunting?"

"Of course, when I was very young, I once hunted and killed a wild boar! I killed a lot of leopards and tigers. It's nothing." Du Wenhao boasted that he didn't write drafts.

"Well, you go hunting with me!"

Du Wenhao's words were just coaxing her attention away and making her happy. After finishing the calculation, he guessed how a eldest princess would take an imperial doctor to hunt. Won't let myself go.Hearing what the eldest princess said at this moment, he was startled, what was he thinking?Do you really want to accompany me?

Hunting with the princess is not a good thing, it has to be rejected.Du Wenhao had already thought of a countermeasure for this point, and said with a helpless smile on his face: "The Eldest Princess wants the minister to go, and the minister will definitely go, but it's a pity that the emperor asked the minister to serve as a doctor, and the minister will definitely go. I can't go away. Tomorrow is free, and I will accompany the eldest princess to hunt. To be honest, I haven't hunted for a long time, and my hands are itchy when I say it."

The queen smiled and said: "It's all right, today the emperor is going to offer incense at the Daxiangguo Temple, and after the incense, the emperor still has to listen to the presiding officer's speech. Today, the whole day will be spent in the temple, so today the emperor will not discuss politics, so you don't have to follow. "

"Ah? I...why didn't I know?" Du Wenhao was a little dumbfounded. If he had known this earlier, he shouldn't have bragged just now.

"It was temporarily scheduled last night."

"Is that so, then..., Wei Chen has already agreed to go to the Empress Dowager for a follow-up visit in the afternoon. Her abdominal pain has been unable to find the root cause. Although the pain is gone for now, she has no idea..."

"Aren't you in a hurry on this day? Besides, the empress dowager, the empress dowager and I will accompany the emperor to the Daxiangguo Temple today, so we don't have time for a follow-up visit."

Du Wenhao complained even more in his stomach, he didn't expect it to be like this.Looking at the queen with a wry smile, then at the eldest princess: "This..., actually..., um..."

"Why? Don't dare to go?" The eldest princess squinted at him: "You said you can hunt, you are not bragging, are you?"

Du Wenhao wanted to hit the snake and go on the pole, and it was over if he admitted bragging, but when he looked up, he saw the eldest princess sneered and dismissed him, he was angry, and he was not willing to admit cowardice, so he straightened his chest and said with a sneer: "What? Bragging? I'm telling the truth!"

"Then why don't you dare go?"

"Who wouldn't dare? This isn't..., what..." Du Wenhao turned his head and continued to look for trouble. Suddenly, a gust of cold wind blew by. He looked up and saw that the sky was cloudy. There seemed to be a snowstorm. He immediately had an idea and pointed Pointing to the top of his head, he said: "Eldest Princess, it's not that I don't dare to go. It's not suitable for hunting in this kind of weather. If we go hunting and encounter a snowstorm, it's okay to freeze the servants. It's okay to freeze the Eldest Princess. A humble minister can't afford it."

"I don't want you to worry about it! Come on, are you going or not? I don't have time to grind my teeth with you here!"

"Princess, what I said is the truth. Look at this day, the blizzard must be serious. If you get lost in the blizzard, it will be terrible. Moreover, the animals are hiding in this weather. At most, only rabbits can fight." , it’s useless to go…”

"Hmph! Duplicity guy! Forget it! I'll go myself!" The eldest princess turned around and left.

The queen was anxious, and she stared at Du Wenhao and said: "You are a real person. Since you know how to hunt, you are still talking about things. Hurry up and go with the eldest princess. The day will change soon, and we don't feel relieved when she goes alone. !"

Du Wenhao smiled wryly. He also didn't want to be looked down upon by the Eldest Princess. Isn't it just for hunting? What's the matter?Besides, if you go out this day, you may not be able to meet prey. If you let the eldest princess fight, if you see the excitement and don't make a move, you won't be exposed.Besides, in the days of the Song Dynasty, I have also practiced horseback riding and archery. Although the archery is not very good, I will not make low-level mistakes, and I will not lose my face.

Thinking of this, Du Wenhao hurriedly bowed and said, "I would like to obey the Queen's order! My minister is going hunting with the eldest princess." He emphasized this point, because he wanted to kill what the queen said just now. , so that if there is any mistake in the future, I can't blame myself.

The empress didn't have as much thoughtfulness as he did, and when he agreed, she beamed with joy, and called out to the eldest princess: "Wait! Master Du agrees to go with you!"

The eldest princess stopped, and turned around blankly: "Are you really willing to go? I don't want to force others!"

"Hehe, I can't say I'm reluctant. In fact, I really want to take this opportunity to go out and relax. However, I like real hunting. It's exciting, and it's the real way to show off my skills. Pretentious hunting done by others, hunting No matter how much prey there is, it’s useless.”

"What do you mean?"

"If we want to hunt, we go to the wild to hunt, don't go to the royal hunting ground to hunt those animals that are raised, and let others swarm the prey in front of us, and we just shoot arrows, what's the point? That's not hunting, that's archery! "

How did the eldest princess know that Du Wenhao spoke boldly about the various disadvantages of hunting in the hunting ground, and his intention was to reduce the possibility of hunting animals as much as possible, so as to reduce the chance of making a fool of himself if he couldn't hunt animals. Then he looked at him with great interest: "Your idea is very interesting, that's alright, let's not go to the hunting ground, and go hunting in the mountains for real! I used to go hunting in the mountains with my emperor brother when I was young. "

"If you go into the mountains, the distance is a bit far."

"What's the matter, just hurry up."

Du Wenhao continued to make her fearful: "Also, if you are really hunting, don't bring too many people, because you don't need to besiege the prey. Let's find the prey and fight by ourselves. Just bring a few followers."

If she was really a pampered princess, she might retreat after hearing this, but Du Wenhao didn't know that the eldest princess stayed with her husband in Qinzhou on the border of Xixia for a period of time, and often went hunting. There was no hunting ground there, so she went hunting in the mountains like this. He didn't care at all, and immediately nodded and said: "That's natural. Even if I go to the hunting ground to hunt, I always only bring a few followers. What's the point in fighting prey that is blocked by others."

Seeing that she agreed without any hesitation, Du Wenhao cried out in his heart, "Damn it, I really met him, the words have already been said to death, there is no way to change his words, he can only knock out his teeth and swallow them in his stomach, cupped his hands and said: "Then let's go Bar!"

The eldest princess looked Du Wenhao up and down: "You just go hunting with me in this official robe?"

Du Wenhao looked down at his fifth-rank official robe with fluttering sleeves: "Yes, it's too late to change at home now, just tie up the official robe. For hunting, use your eyes, bow and arrow, and your heart, it has nothing to do with clothing! Even if you dress decently, you may not be able to hunt anything!"

The eldest princess smiled faintly: "Okay, then we will see what Master Du does later."

"Hehe, it's easy to say, it's rare for the eldest princess to be so interested, so I will accompany the eldest princess to hunt rabbits, but as agreed, you may not be able to meet prey today, if you don't encounter anything, don't say it's me Let them hide."

The eldest princess gave him another sideways glance: "Don't just talk loudly, show some real skills! Let's go!"

At the entrance of the bedroom, the eldest princess' entourage was ready. Sure enough, there were only five or six of them, all of whom were riding tall horses, or had falcons on their shoulders, or led majestic wolf dogs.Several other horses carried tents and food and drink.

Du Wenhao looked at it, and said in a very embarrassed way: "This situation..., is it possible that I have to go for a few days? I am ordered to serve the emperor as a doctor, I am afraid that I don't have so much time."

The queen said: "It's okay, I'll ask for leave from the emperor. There are many imperial doctors in the imperial hospital. The emperor has no illness at present and requires you to be present. You are good to accompany the eldest princess to hunt. The emperor loves this imperial sister very much. I am happy to be with her." , the emperor is also happy. You don’t have to worry about your family, I’ll send someone to inform them that you’ve got an errand and left the city.”

After the queen said so, Du Wenhao could only nod his head.

The eldest princess asked: "Master Du, do you have your own riding and shooting?"

"Yes, but I'm too lazy to go back and get it. It's a waste of time. Just use yours."

"That's good!" The eldest princess ordered the attendants: "Bring a horse to Lord Du!"

A follower brought a black horse, with black fur all over its body, as shiny as lacquer. On the golden saddle beam of the horse's back, hung a single sword on one side, and a longbow and a pot of carved mace's feathers and arrows on the other. .

The eldest princess said: "Master Du, try this bow to see if it is easy to hold and whether it is soft or hard. If it doesn't work, I will change it for you."

Du Wenhao glanced at the longbow. He has been in the Song Dynasty for more than half a year. Bows and arrows are one of the most important weapons in the cold weapon era. Of course he has seen them before. Zhang Gong is just an ordinary longbow, the same as the one he usually uses to practice archery. It is not specially made, and he has confidence in his heart, and said with a smile: "Don't try it, a good hunter can hit prey even with straw of."

Hearing Du Wenhao's words, the eldest princess smiled, and said with a bit of teasing: "Okay, let's go! Good hunter."

Although the eldest princess lives in the palace, she is a married person after all, so there is no restriction on entering and leaving the palace.They got on their horses and headed out of the city.

In ancient times, horses were a very important means of transportation. Therefore, Du Wenhao often practiced riding horses when he was free, and now it finally came in handy. flaw.

After leaving the city, he trotted along the official road.

The eldest princess rode her bay red horse and put on a hunting suit, she looked quite heroic.Du Wenhao followed her on horseback, and the eldest princess didn't look back, and asked, "You seem to have a good relationship with my sister-in-law?"

"How can I dare to say that I have a good relationship with the empress, but I have been treating the empress all the time, so I have become familiar with it."

The eldest princess glanced at him sideways: "I heard that you are the youngest imperial physician in the imperial hospital, and you have become an imperial physician. It's terrible."

"Don't dare, I still have a lot to learn."

"Hmph, I don't like you hypocritical people the most. It's boring to see what someone says."

Du Wenhao laughed dryly. The princess didn't know the severity of her words. Although she wanted to hold back, she still said, "It's better to be the eldest princess. If you want to say something, you don't have to worry about offending anyone."

The eldest princess was annoyed, and said, "What do you mean?"

Du Wenhao smiled slightly and said, "Isn't it?"

The eldest princess stared at him, snorted, and slapped the horse's buttocks fiercely, saying: "I don't want to talk to you! Come on! Don't dawdle like a bitch!"

When Du Wenhao saw the eldest princess leaving in the dust, he cursed in his stomach, and naturally he was not to be outdone, and chased after her with a bang.

After running two hours forward, it was already noon.

At this time, a small piece of the hazy sky suddenly parted away, revealing a deep blue sky. The sun poked its head out from behind, and gently cast its vague warmth on the earth, and the cold wind became less so. It was sharp, the whole earth was white, and the treetops were all covered with silver, which looked extremely beautiful.

"Ha! This feeling is really good!" The eldest princess jumped off the horse, opened her arms and looked up at the blue sky, saying loudly.

Du Wenhao looked up at the haze around the sky, a little frightened. He remembered the last scene of the movie "The Perfect Storm", where the sun came out, followed by huge waves.Now the signs of the blizzard are heightened by the hard showing of the sun.Let's hope it doesn't happen to them this time.

He didn't get off the horse, but just looked at the eldest princess who was excited like a child indifferently, thinking, this princess is also a poor person, her husband died, and she was almost buried in the same company, this is an inexplicable sadness, Fortunately, there is no child, but because of this, there is no spiritual support, and it is really pitiful to live while watching other people's eyes.

The eldest princess suddenly said: "When I was young, my brother and I came to this area to hunt. I remember that there seemed to be a lake in front of me. There were many wild ducks on the lake. Go and see if there are still any."

The two attendants agreed, and rode off on their horses. Only then did the eldest princess get on the horse, and the group walked forward slowly.

They have been walking the official road, and except for the occasional voles on the side of the road, they have not encountered any prey.

Not long after the trip, two attendants came back and reported: "Princess, most of the lake is frozen, and there are no wild ducks on the lake, so I don't know where they flew to."

Du Wenhao was startled, he stood on the horse and raised his eyes to look into the distance, and he saw a lake in the distance, and the lake was shining white.He looked up at the sky again, and the blue sky had begun to shrink.The blizzard is so big, have all these wild ducks with prophets flown to safety?
She wanted to persuade the princess to go back, but she was afraid of being laughed at by her. While hesitating, the eldest princess turned around and said to the followers: "You take the official road and move forward slowly. I will go to the lake and walk along the lake. Let's go to the front. confluence."

The attendant agreed and told the eldest princess to be careful.

The eldest princess turned her head to look at Du Wenhao: "Hey! I'm going to the lake to have a look, are you going?"

"Didn't the guard just say that the lake is frozen and there is no prey, so you won't be able to hunt any prey now."

"You know that hunting is just a way to go out to hunt, and enjoying the free and fresh air is the most important thing!"

Du Wenhao was dumbfounded. It turned out that the eldest princess's ulterior motives were not in drinking. Thinking about it, it's no wonder that when she encountered something like her, she longed for an open-minded environment.

The eldest princess said again: "I remember when I was young, I came here to hunt with the emperor once, and I saw a big stone by the lake. It looked strange and handsome, like a pensive man. I want to go again to see if it is still there. .If you don’t want to move, just go forward slowly with them, and I will go by myself.” After speaking, he rode away.

Du Wenhao muttered, this woman can do whatever she wants, and she can't be allowed to go to the lake alone, if something bad happens to her, she should ride her horse and follow her, shouting: "Princess, wait, I go with you."

The official road was still some distance away from the lake, and the two rode their horses to the lake.The water of the lake was crystal clear, and a thick layer of ice had formed within tens of feet of the lake.The two rode their horses along the lake, and Du Wenhao followed the eldest princess cautiously, neither of them said a word.

At one point, the eldest princess reined in the horse and looked around: "Hey, where did that stone go?"

Du Wenhao looked around, and there was nothing beside the lake except the whistling of the wind.

The eldest princess continued to ride the horse forward, searching with her eyes, and murmured: "There really are, and they are in this position. At that time, they wanted to move them back to the palace, but they were too big."

The eldest princess turned her head and saw Du Wenhao following behind without saying a word, and suddenly asked, "Do you think I'm lying to you?"

"Wei Chen dare not."

"Hmph! I'm sorry you don't dare!" The eldest princess stood up immediately and looked into the distance. Suddenly, she shouted excitedly: "I found it! It's there!"

Du Wenhao looked in the direction of her finger, and sure enough, there was a small bump on the edge of the lake in the distance, if you don't pay attention, you really can't see it.Is that what she was talking about that looks like a man's stone?
The eldest princess had galloped away, so Du Wenhao had no choice but to follow.

Ride your horse to the stone.I saw this boulder in the lake half an arrow away from the lake. At this moment, the lake by the lake has frozen, and it is dazzling white.The boulder is about three feet high, and in appearance, it does look like a person sitting by the lake and thinking about something.However, Du Wenhao looked left and right, but he didn't see that the boulder looked like a man. Could it be that the eldest princess discovered that the stone looked like a ****?I looked carefully, but still didn't see it.

Just as I was about to ask the eldest princess, I saw that she had already stepped on the solid ice of the lake and walked towards the boulder.

Du Wenhao was taken aback, seeing that the ice by the lake was not too thick, and it was no joke that this thing would fall into it.He hurriedly shouted: "Princess, come back! Come back quickly! It's dangerous!"

The eldest princess mainly listens to him, so she is no longer called the eldest princess.The horse's hoof trampled on the ice, and the broken ice flew along with the horse's hoof, and soon came to the boulder.

Du Wenhao scolded secretly, he had no choice but to jump on the ice and move forward carefully.

Before reaching the boulder, I saw that the eldest princess had dismounted and began to climb up the stone.

Du Wenhao was taken aback: "Princess! Don't climb up! The stone is icy, it's too slippery!"

The eldest princess climbed up slowly with her hands and feet.He also shouted proudly: "I want to ride on his head! If you are afraid, go away...!"

As soon as I said this, the princess's leather boots slipped, and she let out an exclamation, and fell down. She had already climbed up to a height of more than one foot, and fell with a heavy force, like a big rock. A hole was smashed into the already fragile ice surface, and he plopped into the ice hole and disappeared.

This frightened Du Wenhao out of his wits, and yelled for the eldest princess!The horse rode up to the boulder, the hole was next to the boulder, and the surrounding area was already broken. The black horse seemed to know the danger, and when it was a foot away from the hole, it clattered its front hooves, snorted, and refused to move any further. Previous step.

The dark blue water ripples in the cave swayed in circles, and the shattered ice on the edge of the cave also fell into the water from time to time.

Du Wenhao stood up immediately and shouted loudly, his voice changed in anxiety.I couldn't hear the eldest princess's reaction, nor could I see any movement in the ice hole.He turned his horse and wanted to call those attendants, but when he looked up, the official road where the attendants were on was too far away from the lake, and he could only see a few small dots, and those attendants didn't even know that the eldest princess was gone Into the lake.If I rode my horse over to call for rescue, I'm afraid the eldest princess would have drowned.

It's too late, it's important to save people first!Du Wenhao kicked off the saddle and began to undress.

Du Wenhao is a graduate of forensic medicine. He knows that untrained ordinary people will be unconscious due to suffocation within 3 minutes after drowning, and will die irreversibly in about 5 minutes.In other words, I have at most 5 minutes to rescue.

That's enough time for him to undress.It is necessary to save people. The clothes you wear are nothing to you. Once you fall into the water, they will be heavier than stones!It will pull you hard to the bottom of the water like a pair of hands of death!No matter how good the water quality is, there is not much strength to resist this force.Therefore, if you want to save others, you have to take off your clothes to ensure that you have the strength to save others and yourself.

Du Wenhao's water skills are not bad, and he can swim back and forth in the swimming pool twice without any problem. He also learned how to save people in the water in physical education class, although he has never practiced it.

The method of rescuing people in the water is very important. When approaching a drowning person, one should not rush to lift and pull them rashly. The drowning person has lost his mind at the critical moment of life and will cling to anything that can be grasped around him.Many people who went into the water to save people recklessly rushed over because they did not know the law, and were hugged tightly by the drowning person. As a result, the person did not come up, and instead took a life.
