Chapter 825 Prey
Looking at Ning Deyin's eyes, Chen Xin knew that she had a good impression of him.In addition to the prime minister, the power is also distributed to Zhongshumen, the Privy Council, and the three divisions and three departments.A servant under the door can basically be equivalent to the post of deputy prime minister.Just now, besides Ning Deyin's appearance, the rich man also loves Ning Deyin's family background, and the position of the son-in-law of the deputy prime minister. I am afraid that even if he is overcrowded, it will be difficult for the young talents in the capital to get a job.

Now that Ning Deyin took the initiative to show his favor, he should agree with Chengying and be overjoyed instead of focusing on Li Xiruo.

Seeing Chen Xin, Ning Deyin just glanced at herself, then turned to the other place, her eyes were a little more joyful, the Chen Xin in her eyes was not moved by her appearance, and did not cling to him because of his prominent family background, he was a pure and innocent man. An elegant and handsome talent who avoids troubled times.

Ning Deyin took a deep breath, and asked Chen Dao: "Just now I saw that the article written by you is very good, so I want to ask you to go to the tea house to give some pointers. I don't know if you will appreciate me."

Li Xiruo looked at Chen Xin, this is a perfect opportunity for him, Ning Deyin did not dislike him for selling poems because of poverty, and even invited him to invite him, as long as he has fame in the future, presumably his servant Ning Shao will not He will reject his son-in-law who rides the dragon quickly.

These Chen Xins all know what he should do and what he should not do. If he went to Beijing alone, he would have followed Ning Deyin to the teahouse by this time, but now Li Xiruo is by his side, just a nod, let him Hesitant.

Luyao was dissatisfied with being next to him. The young gentleman who wanted to marry Ning Deyin was about to cross the threshold, but he had never even seen Ning Deyin's face. This Chen Xin was dressed in shabby clothes, and he looked like a peasant boy. Ning Deyin lowered his posture so much, He was not grateful to Dade for quickly agreeing, and he was still vacillating here.

"Brother Li thinks, should I go?"

Chen Xin looked at Li Xiruo in a daze. His literati arrogance and affection for Li Xiruo made him not want to trade major events in life for his future. Didn't you marry someone you don't want to marry in exchange for the opportunity to step into the officialdom?
Li Xiruo looked at Chen Xin and wondered if she had become a bit crazy in reading recently, she leaned closer and whispered: "Of course, this kind of opportunity is something no one can ask for."

What's more, this is her carefully chosen marriage. Ning Deyin comes from Zhong Ding's family. She has both talent and appearance, and she doesn't have the temper of Miss Jiao, so she is a good match.

Chen Xin lowered his eyebrows, turned around and smiled at Ning Deyin: "Miss Ning, please."

Ning Deyin nodded happily.

Seeing Chen Xin and Ning Deyin leave, Li Xiruo left Yuxu Tower, but unexpectedly bumped into Zhao Yinzhang.

She remembered that day when Chen Xin said to her Mrs. Zhao Yinzhang Lin, but seeing her today, no matter what, she couldn't call her that.Zhao Yinzhang was no different from what she had seen a year ago. He was not wearing a woman's hair bun, nor was she put away. Instead, he was wearing a simple Hu suit, looking as if he was about to go hunting.

Zhao Yinzhang was taken aback when he saw Li Xiruo's manly attire, and it took him a long time to come to his senses and said, "Now that you are a man, you are going to fascinate many girls in the capital."

Li Xiruo just smiled: "It's not as heroic as Miss Zhao."

Listening to her address, Zhao Yinzhang grinned: "I have been in the capital for so long, and finally someone still remembers my surname Zhao. They all call me Mrs. Lin, Mrs. Lin, and Lin Shang and I are not even husband and wife."

"Ahem." The servant behind Zhao Yinzhang tried his best to remind Zhao Yinzhang that this was still on the street. Zhao Yinzhang glanced at them dissatisfied, and said to Li Xiruo: "I only heard from Lin Shang before that Chen Xin is here. Thinking of you coming too. I think you are alone, why not go hunting with me, anyway, you are also a hunter, and you will definitely win a good fortune."

Li Xiruo asked: "Can the prey you kill be taken away?"

Zhao Yinzhang couldn't help feeling amused: "What are you doing with those dead things?"

Li Xiruo said frankly: "Something happened on the way when we came, and now the money is almost spent."

Zhao Yinzhang understood what she meant. The mountains around the capital were used as royal hunting grounds. Li Xiruo could only earn a living by hunting inside.

"According to common sense, if it's a large prey, you have to share the meat with the guests. If it's just a few tits and white rabbits, you can take it back to the house by yourself. But even if you get the fur, you can't sell it for a few taels of silver. How about Go straight to the game, Prince Jing has always been a generous man, if you hunt the most prey, you will definitely be rewarded."

Zhao Yinzhang took Li Xiruo to the hunting ground. Before King Jing arrived, there was already a huge crowd of people, including sons of civil servants, sons of military officials, and some noble ladies who were good at riding horses. Once lively.

But it is rare for someone like Zhao Yinzhang to hold the name of his husband and son-in-law without his husband and son-in-law by his side.As soon as they entered the arena, many people stared at them. Zhao Yinzhang, who was already married, was accompanied by a man of magnanimity and beauty, which inevitably aroused people's imagination.

But this time Prince Jing came to hunt together with Prince Yu. It has long been rumored that the two princes are not on good terms, and they don't know why they are together now.

King Yu leaned down on the chair, looked at the people below, felt rather bored, and said lazily: "Brother Wu Wang, it's just hunting, it seems too boring, old-fashioned."

King Jing's face was slightly dark. King Yu was talking about the court affairs with a siege. His views tended to be prudent, and he wanted to make a fortune first, while King Yu wanted to be radical. The two of them didn't argue in front of the emperor for a reason. King Yu extended the battlefield here again.

Prince Jing smiled, "I don't know what advice Seventh Brother has?"

King Yu sat up straight and said, "Get a few death row prisoners and let them hang around their prey to interfere with hunting. If anyone accidentally shoots a death row prisoner, they will leave immediately. After an hour, whoever has the most prey will win win."

Prince Jing frowned: "Although he is a death row prisoner, it is too cruel to use humans as prey."

King Yu sneered: "They committed crimes, and they should have been executed long ago. Keeping them in prison is also a waste of the national treasury. Brother Wang sympathizes with what they are doing. Come here and bring some death row prisoners."

King Jing squinted his eyes, didn't speak, just let King Yu mess around.

Zhao Yinzhang asked someone to inquire about it, and said to Li Xiruo: "This time the reward is 300 taels of silver, and every hour is a round. You go on the field first. However," Zhao Yinzhang hesitated: "I heard that many people came to the hunting ground. The death row prisoners are used as distractions for hunting, if you shoot them, you will be out of the game, you have to be careful."

Li Xiruo frowned, he was afraid something would happen if so many death row prisoners were used as targets.

Zhao Yinzhang gave Li Xiruo the quiver and the horse, Li Xiruo got on the horse, and saw that not far away, King Yu was also getting ready to go.She patted the horse's belly with her foot and drove towards the hunting ground.

Most of the prey in the hunting grounds were pheasants, hares, roe deer and otters. Li Xiruo shot a few hastily, and there was no prey at her feet, so she had to drive forward to look for them.

She hit a lot of prey along the way, looked up and saw that King Yu was immediately aiming at a lynx in the distance, and several prisoners were dodging around the prey, being driven by officers and soldiers with long forks.

King Yu let go of his hand, and shot an arrow at the lynx, but a prisoner on death row was so panicked that he ran in front of the lynx, and the arrow grazed his arm.

All the people around here are Prince Jing's people, so of course they wouldn't give Prince Yu face, and immediately sentenced him to be out of the game.

But who is King Yu? He was spoiled and pampered since he was a child. How could he swallow this breath willingly? Immediately, he was so angry that he aimed an arrow at the death row prisoner, who was wounded by the arrow. He ran away in a panic, but the surrounding officers and soldiers did not stop him, and King Yu chased him on horseback.

King Yu caught up with the condemned prisoner, set his arrow and drew his bow, and once he released his hand, the long arrow chased straight at the prisoner's face.Suddenly another long arrow flew like a broken bamboo, passed through the body of King Yu's long arrow, and nailed to the tree.

King Yu immediately became angry: "Who is so bold?"

Li Xiruo came out on a horse and looked at King Yu: "Although he is a death row prisoner, he should be dealt with according to the law. King Yu's abuse of the death penalty is not despising the king's law."

King Yu recognized that Li Xiruo was the person beside Chen Xin that day, and he couldn't help saying with a bit of hatred: "It's you again, you mediocre people, how did you get in here."

"Of course I came here with an invitation from His Highness Prince Jing. I still want to hunt, so I will take my leave first."

Li Xiruo led the horse rope to another place, this King Yu is pampered, and she doesn't want to cause other troubles.

But she doesn't cause trouble, but trouble will come to her. King Yu was provoked twice, and his heart was already filled with murderous intentions. He followed Li Xiruo on his horse and pointed the arrow at her. she.

It's just a grassroots man who sneaked into the hunting ground with ulterior motives and was accidentally shot by an arrow. As a prince, what punishment can he receive.

Li Xiruo lowered her head when she felt the intention of the arrow shooting towards her, causing the arrow to shoot into the open space. She turned cold and turned to look at King Yu.

King Yu said, "You blocked my prey."

King Jing's men chased after him and said to King Yu, "My lord, this rule has been set, you have to follow it, you can't hunt anymore."

King Yu snorted coldly, and was about to drive his horse, but saw Li Xiruo set up two long arrows and pointed them straight at him. He panicked, and before he could call for escort, the two long arrows roared out , brushed his ear.

Prince Jing's people also thought that Li Xi was going to assassinate him, but they didn't expect to look back and see that the two long arrows hit the deer and the hare in front respectively.

They couldn't help but caught their prey and came up to praise: "Young master is good at arrows."

Prince Jing's face was livid, he had never experienced such a shame and humiliation, he was provoked but could not fight back, he looked at Li Xiruo and said: "You wait for me!"

Li Xiruo turned around blankly. If killing King Yu hadn't had too much influence, he wouldn't be able to say that now.
