You are my golden finger

Murong Xu and Lin Xijin led the tiger and the wolves on a hunt and reaped a lot of rewards, including goats, roe deer, and hares. They returned to the yard by the lake and asked everyone to come out and continue working.

"Sister, brother-in-law, what happened?" An anxious An An was the first to rush forward to ask, and everyone was also eager to know the answer.

"It's no big deal. My sister and brother-in-law went to beat the bad guys. It's okay now. The bad guys were caught by the uncles from the Royal Guard." The word "brother-in-law" gave Murong Xu enough patience to comfort An An and also explain to everyone.

"Sister, brother-in-law, can you take An An to fight the bad guys next time?" An An has learned Kung Fu for several years and also wants to try his skills.

"Okay! When An An grows up, I will take An An to beat the bad guys." Murong Xu is very easy to talk to.

"It's a deal!" An An was anxious to confirm.

"A word is settled!"

Everyone was relieved to see the two return safely, and no one wanted to sleep at this moment. An Yi, Lin Dong and the boys processed the prey they brought back and started a new round of barbecue mode.

Duoduo and Mimi were enough to keep watch at night, so Lin Xijin rewarded Dahu and the wolves, and told them to stay in the nearby woods and go hunting with the group tomorrow.

The big tiger and the leader wolf rubbed her legs before leading the other wolves into the woods.

Lin Xijin let everyone do what they wanted, set up a deck chair by the lake, and lay down to rest comfortably.

The lake was calm and peaceful, and under the moonlight, it looked like a silver mirror. The stars twinkled brightly in the sky and in the water, and the entire lake was shrouded in a mysterious and peaceful atmosphere.

How nice it would be if there were no fighting and no bloody slaughter! Lin Xijin thought sadly.

"Sister, eat." The warm-hearted boy An An brought grilled lamb chops and roe deer meat, and considerately filled a glass of orange juice.

The little guy sat at her feet with a small stool and helped her pass things without her having to move.

Several little girls soon gathered around, eating and laughing. Xihui and Xinfeng kept serving grilled skewers.

The melancholy in Lin Xijin's heart was diluted by this scene, and she suddenly felt proud and felt that all the smoke and dust and the dark side were nothing more than this.

Not convinced? Just do it!

Before going to bed, Lin Xijin distributed a set of riding clothes to everyone, military green camouflage series for men and red for women, as well as matching windproof hats, gloves, and riding boots.

An An's riding clothes were originally the same color as those of the other girls, but in the end the little guy was not happy and protested: "Sister, I'm a boy, I don't wear red!"

"An An, red looks good!" Lan Lan advised him.

"Sister, no! I'm a boy!" The little guy has a very strong sense of gender.

In the end, Lin Xijin had no choice but to change into a military green suit for him.

Since they went to bed late at night, Lin Xijin told everyone not to practice martial arts the next morning and to gather at 9:00 p.m. to go hunting.

The next morning, as soon as Lin Xijin and Murong Xu left the room, An An ran up to them in a riding suit and asked eagerly, "Sister, brother-in-law, is An An handsome?"

Not to mention, the little guy looks so charming in this outfit, with a hint of heroism in his childishness and a hint of masculinity in his softness.

"Hey, who is this? Is it our An An? How can he be so handsome? I almost can't recognize him!" Lin Xijin praised with a bit of exaggeration.

"Well, An An is handsome! Only slightly inferior to my brother-in-law!" Murong Xu also cooperated by giving a thumbs up, but at the same time he did not forget to brag himself.

An An didn't care at all what Murong Xu said next and hurried to show off to everyone.

Lin Xijin pinched the self-promotional Murong Xu, and was then held by Murong Xu's hand, and they went to have breakfast together.

After showing off for a while, An An came back and quickly ate his breakfast. Then he sat on the pony prepared for him and set off in a proud manner.

The hunting team was divided into two teams. Lin Xijin led An An and a few girls in one team, and Duoduo, Mimi and a group of guards followed. They hunted in the nearby jungle.

Murong Xu led a group of boys, big tigers, wolves, secret guards, and bodyguards to hunt deeper and farther.

A group of young men, wearing uniform clothes, were full of vigor and vitality, galloping on their horses, like a gust of wind or a flash of lightning, passing over the hills and scaring away all the birds in the mountains.

An An and the girls who were hunting nearby quickly shot several pheasants and rabbits and captured a goat. They soon returned to the base at the suggestion of Shangguan Qing and Princess Yuehe, whose martial arts value was zero.

"Oh hehe..." Before noon, the shouts of a group of high-spirited young men could be heard from afar.

"Brother," An An was the first to react, "Sister, that's brother and his friends' voices. They're coming back. I'll go pick them up."

Before the voice faded, the person had teleported away. Several girls hurried out to greet the hero who had returned from hunting.

The harvest of the group was amazing. There were more than ten pheasants and rabbits, four or five goats and two roe deer, which formed a small pile on the ground.

"Sister," Xihui and Xinfeng smiled broadly, "We are back."

Neither of them said what prey they had caught, but from their smiles it was easy to tell that they had performed well.

The lunch was undoubtedly sumptuous, with pheasant ginseng soup, clear-boiled roe deer meat, braised fish, roasted rabbit, lamb, roe deer meat...all kinds of grilled meat were available.

"Brother-in-law, can we come again next time?" An An's eyes swept across the slightly rippling lake, looking at the magnificent sunset setting in the west, and suggested reluctantly.

"Okay, we'll come again next time."

When everyone returned to the gate of Kyoto, the sunset had also slipped into the horizon. Winter nights come especially early, and the sky is already dark. But the lights of most of the teahouses and restaurants in the city have been lit up one after another.

In a restaurant near the city gate, in a private room on the street, a sinister gaze was looking down at the group of people entering the city, and asked gloomily: "Is there still no news about the people who were sent out?"

"Master, no one has reported back yet."

"Ugh! There are more than a hundred people! Did they all get wiped out?"

I can only tell him the truth.

An Yi and his companions escorted the prisoner back to the city with the prince's token after the curfew. They stuffed the prisoner into two horse-drawn carriages and sent him directly to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment for interrogation overnight.

However, the result of the interrogation was not satisfactory. No matter how severely the killer was tortured, he actually said that he was a subordinate of the fifth prince Murong Yan. It seems that the fourth prince Murong Chun was very good at hiding the truth.

"Father, the night before yesterday at the Xishan hunting ground, I was assassinated by a group of more than 120 people. In the fierce fight, more than 60 of them were killed and more than 10 were captured alive. They are now detained in the Ministry of Punishment. Some of them committed suicide by biting poison at that time." As this was a royal scandal, Murong Xu did not want to embarrass his father, so he reported the situation to him privately.

The emperor was furious when he heard this: "Who would be so bold as to kill the crown prince? Have you found out who did it?"

"Everyone who was caught said it was assigned by the Fifth Brother."

"This old man still refuses to give up. Is he tired of living? Are there any casualties?"

"Only a few guards were injured, nothing serious. Father, I'll leave this matter to you."

Murong Xu didn't want to give others the impression that his brothers were fighting each other and eliminating dissidents, so he kicked the ball to his father and became a hands-off boss.
