The little stool followed Zhu Ying, followed by more than ten guards.

Zhu Yong rushed forward with the lead, and saw him bent his bow and arrow. With a whoosh, an arrow passed through the shadows of the tree, hitting the prey.

"good!!"

Such exquisite archery techniques naturally attracted everyone's praise.

A guard hurriedly ran into the woods and dragged out a bloody sika deer.

"Report to the third prince, he is at the heart!!"

The guard bowed.

"Third brother, I haven't seen you for a few months, and your archery skills have improved a lot."

Zhu Ying looked at the feather arrow that hit the chest of the sika deer and couldn't help but sigh.

Zhu Yong smiled, "Your Highness Liao Pian, my archery skills are still far-reaching compared to you."

"You, you..."

This unmarked flattery made Zhu Ying feel happy in his heart, and immediately waved his hand:

"Come here, bring the bowl and get the blood!"

The guard took the order and took out a bowl of gold-inlaid jade, and used a knife to open a hole in the heart of the sika deer.

The nobles of the Great Zhou Dynasty had always had the habit of drinking deer blood. In addition, deer blood had a good nourishing effect, so it was a rare thing to get great nourishment.

The sticky and fishy deer blood entered his throat, but Zhu Wang laughed and said:

"happy!"

Then he handed the bowl to Zhu Yong, the third prince beside him, to express his closeness.

The third prince Zhu Yong took the jade bowl and drank the remaining deer blood in the bowl in one go:

"I am grateful for my brother's love, and I am so happy."

Zhu Wang waved his hand lightly and looked at the sun still hanging high:

"It's still early, let's work harder and try to hunt a beast as much as possible, so as to go back to give it to your father."

"yes!"

Everyone bowed.

The more you go, the more trees around you become, and the snow on the ground makes it difficult for everyone to move.

But even so, he still couldn't resist Zhu Yan's fiery hunting heart.

The third prince Zhu Yong slowly followed the prince, looking at Zhu Ying's back, a complex look flashed in his eyes.

......

In the evening, everyone returned home with a full load.

Emperor Jingping, surrounded by a group of ministers, slowly sat on the dragon throne.

At this time, people had already emerged from the forest one after another, carrying all kinds of wild game behind them.

Unfortunately, so far, no corpses of beasts such as tigers, black bears and other beasts have been seen.

Deng Jian cried and crawled out of the forest with a dejected look. Today, he was too lucky and had no decent prey at all.

After standing still, he began to look for Xiao Zicheng's figure, eager to find some sense of superiority from Xiao Zicheng.

"Young master, the villain inquired about it, but Xiao Zicheng did not go into the mountains to hunt.

Instead, he set up a stove in the tent and made a food called hot pot, and never left the tent again."

A servant walked quickly behind Deng Jian and reported in a low voice.

Deng Jian sneered in his heart. This winter hunting event was a good time to make a big splash.

Xiao Zicheng actually hid in the tent and ate and drank delicious food. He was really a fool.

Emperor Jingping sat upright on the dragon throne and swept coldly over everyone present, but did not find Xiao Zicheng's figure.

"This little snatch isn't still in the tent, right?"

Emperor Jingping felt helpless. Xiao Zicheng was so good at everything, but he was too casual and casual...

At this time, a noisy sound in the distance attracted the attention of Emperor Jingping.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince is mighty!"

"Such a big, white-browed tiger!! Look at it, it's less than three hundred pounds!"

"A single arrow penetrates the tiger's eyes, and this kind of archery technique is really the word "excellent"!!"

Amid the compliments from everyone, Zhu Rong struated his head and walked towards the tent where Emperor Jingping was.

Although there were obvious bandage marks on his left hand at this time, it was hard to hide the proud look on Zhu Rong's face.

However, the guards behind him were all hanging their heads, and the closer they got to the imperial tent, the more nervous they became.

As the Prince's Guard, his main responsibility is to protect the personal safety of His Highness the Prince.

But now, they have no injuries on their bodies, but His Royal Highness has been denied a lottery...

If it weren't for the critical moment, Zhu Rong forced his body to twist, but let the tiger pat his left arm, and he hung up the color but had no worries about his life.

One of them is worth one, even if he has ten thousand heads, it is probably not enough for Emperor Jingping to cut it off.

"My son hunted a tiger and offered it to his father! May my Great Zhou be in good weather and better than today's day!!"

Emperor Jingping was very happy. No one who participated in the hunting could hunt beasts, but the prince actually hunted them.

"Okay, not bad!"

Emperor Jingping nodded with satisfaction, and then distributed the venison he had hunted to the prince, asking the prince to share the meat for his subordinates.

Don’t underestimate this meat-dividing link, there are many tricks here.

After the hunting is over, the emperor will distribute prey. Different animals and parts will all have their own special meanings.

Moreover, not everyone can get the prey given by the emperor, but most of them are distributed to those meritorious ministers to demonstrate the great grace of the emperor.

Emperor Jingping did this, but it actually means taking the school exam.

Zhu Ying thought about it and was the first to share the meat with the third prince, and the best hind leg meat was still distributed.

As for the last deer heart, it is also the most precious place for the whole deer, but it is distributed to Xiao Zicheng who has not arrived.

Emperor Jingping nodded in satisfaction and asked to the civil and military officials beside him:

"How is the prince's division?"

“It’s great to be impartial!”

All the court officials agreed, and looked at Emperor Jingping's applauded eyes and knew what the holy intention was.

Although many of them were dissatisfied with Zhu Rong's distributing Lu Xin to Xiao Zicheng, they would not make themselves bored at this time.

Zhu Ying also gave him a breath. Looking at his father's expression, he knew that he had passed the test now.

He looked around again and found that Xiao Zicheng was still not present, and he couldn't help but feel a little whispered.

Lao Xiao is really not interested enough. He must be still in the tent now. I will give you the best deer heart...

The third prince's face was not very good. Although he tried his best to hide it, he still showed a hint of regret.

After everyone returned to the camp, the sun had already set. Emperor Jingping saw that the time was almost done, so he ordered people to start preparing for the evening banquet.

Seeing that Xiao Zicheng was still not seen, Emperor Jingping couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and immediately said with a dark face:

"Where is Shanchengzi? Why didn't he come to offer a gift?"

Everyone immediately started searching in the crowd, and Deng Jian even sneered secretly and stepped forward in three or two steps:

"Report to your Majesty, as far as I know, Shan Chengzi has been hiding in the tent and has not gone to the mountains to hunt!"

Emperor Jingping glanced at him deeply and said nothing.

Zhu Ying heard that someone had exposed the matter, and immediately became a little anxious:

"Return to Father, Lao Xiao... Xiao Zicheng was not feeling well, so he rested in the tent..."

Emperor Jingping smiled at the corner of his eyes, obviously having the intention of teaching Xiao Zicheng a lesson:
Chapter completed!
