The son-in-law is a thief

Li Tuo's horse was the first to charge up. This man and horse had been fighting hard for an hour, but compared to the three son-in-laws, they had already warmed up, and they were more familiar with hunting deer. Although Li Tuo was a little tired , but the heart of fighting spirit is still high, as if he will take the lead and do his part.

"Chen Yi, what should we do?" Zhang Zhize was at a loss.

"Let's chase first." Chen Yi frowned and stepped forward.

Gu Ruyang was motionless. She sat on the horse and watched Li Tuo who was chasing the white deer. Indeed, as Zhaoyang thought, she seldom fought on the shore, but no one ever told Zhaoyang that she could ride a horse. The mother with foreign blood flowed from her family, who traded horses for a living.

Li Tuo galloped on the horse, Chen Yi struggled to follow closely behind, Zhang Zhize trotted timidly and far away, although the three of them were chasing the white deer, most of the pressure came from Li Tuo alone, Gu Ruyang saw Li Tuo was already panting heavily, and even his horse's neck was full of sweat. Apart from the time to rest for a stick of incense just now, this person and horse had never eaten, so I don't know if Li Tuo I love this horse, but I am still too confident, and I haven't changed my ride for an entire hour.

The horse ran as hard as he could, but the deer was even more desperate, as if he knew what was going to happen to him. The white deer ran all the way, without giving Li Tuo a chance. Li Tuo took one step forward, and the white deer took two steps. Keenly leaping to the right, advancing and retreating, catching and escaping, it was extremely exciting, and the audience in front of the hall applauded and applauded.

Gu Ruyang watched the three of them running for a stick of incense on the racecourse without moving, but it was her motionlessness that made her listen to the stick of incense's ridicule. They, or the palace guards around, seemed to regard Gu Ruyang as a fool. Gu Ruyang heard at least three people betting that he would not even be able to touch a deer, five people said they could not ride a horse, and eight people said they could not ride a horse. One person said that she would lose to Li Tuo, but she didn't care, she only cared about the worried person not far away, this person was Zhaoyang, Gu Ruyang didn't want to see her frowning, so she caught her After clipping the horse's belly, he walked towards Zhaoyang, leaving behind three people and three horses chasing the white deer.

Gu Ruyang's behavior naturally aroused the laughter of the people around, thinking that she couldn't even handle a horse, so why did she run in the opposite direction.

Not listening to the gossip in his ears, Gu Ruyang came to Zhaoyang and used some kind of magic to make the horse bow its head in front of Zhaoyang, as if saluting.

"Princess, may I kill that beast?" Gu Ruyang asked Zhaoyang.

Zhaoyang's ears couldn't tolerate the slander against Gu Ruyang, but Zhaoyang said: "I only hope that Ruyang is well."

The corners of Zhaoyang's mouth were smiling, and the corners of Gu Ruyang's brows were smiling, there was no exaggerated expression, only the two of them quietly smiling at each other amidst the noise.

"understood."

After Gu Ruyang finished speaking, he pulled the rein of the horse and headed towards the direction he came from...

At this time, the three people, or maybe it should be said that the two were still chasing the white deer, Gu Ruyang flicked the whip and followed. The horse under her was six feet tall with strong muscles, and one could tell at a glance that it was not from Taiping Island. The horses are not as long as the English or Dutch horses. Gu Ruyang noticed during the competition just now that they should be the horses on the northern land grassland. Lu has been in chaos all the time, and she didn't have a good time to introduce it. Now that she is stepping on this horse, she really needs to experience it today.

Gu Ruyang cut in from the opposite direction and rushed directly in front of Li Tuo and Chen Yi's horse, only to hear Gu Ruyang's steed suddenly hiss, but Chen Yi's horse backed away violently, Li Tuo's horse was not caught by Gu Ruyang's horse at all. Ru Yang was startled by the sudden attack, but he was kicked by Chen Yi's horse unexpectedly. Seeing that the momentum was strong against him, the white deer immediately accelerated and ran towards the border.

This operation is also outside of Li Tuo, and he never expected that Gu Ruyang would really know how to ride a horse. This leap has the potential to overwhelm the master. It is obvious that Gu Ruyang's equestrian skills are by no means inferior to his own. Li Tuo looked so close , but it seemed to the onlookers that Gu Ruyang was driving the horse recklessly and bumped into the two of them.

"Sister-in-law, the son-in-law is really trying to be brave. If you can't say it just now, I will be terrified when I see her on the court now." It was Qin Li'an who spoke.

"My son-in-law, I'm naturally relieved, and I don't need to worry about brother." Zhaoyang drank his wine indifferently.

"For the sake of Eldest Sister, I have already gone to a Chen Concubine. If I have to give up another one, I am afraid that my sister will be called Kefu."

"Qin Li'an, you are too presumptuous!" Qin Huan'an couldn't take it anymore, threw the wine glass on the ground and shouted at Qin Li'an.

"Sixth prince, you are too presumptuous!" Zheng Qi also stood up: "As a younger brother, you should respect your elder brother, let alone that he is still a prince!"

"Then why haven't I seen Qin Li'an respect my elder sister." Qin Huan'an said and turned to the emperor: "I also ask my father to be careful."

Qin Wuyong has always had a headache for these children. Although Zhaoyang is the child he is most satisfied with, it is a pity that as a woman, the throne cannot be passed on to her. Looking at the eldest son Qin Li'an, he is also twenty-five. Fortunately, he gave birth early The birth of the son made the court stable, but this son's ability did not grow, and he had a perverse and violent temperament. If it weren't for the virtuous ministers in the court to assist him, Qin Wuyong still had a glimmer of hope for him in his heart. Changed hands.

As the second son of Wu An and Huan An, Wu An's mother's family is weak, Wu An's mother has always been unwilling for him to participate in political affairs, and has always loved and raised him as an idle prince. His upbringing was left behind.As for Huan'an, although he is not the eldest son, he is the only legitimate son. If the Great Zhou was in peace, he should be the best candidate for the East Palace. Yang personally taught Huan'an, but Huan'an was always the youngest child, loved by outsiders, so he was inevitably arrogant and willful.

It's fine for the two parties in the court to disagree with each other on weekdays, but today's family banquet would lead to a quarrel, Qin Wuyong's face darkened and he said to Huan'an, "I still haven't apologized to your prince brother!"

Qin Huan'an was startled, feeling aggrieved in his heart. The Tian Family comes first from the ruler to the ministers from the father to the son. Even if he refuses to obey, he will not be able to disobey his orders.

"My brother is reckless, I apologize to His Highness the Crown Prince." He apologized, but his heart was full of reluctance.

"It's okay, my lord doesn't remember the faults of villains." Qin Li'an took it easy, without forgiving anyone.

"Li'an, I apologize to your elder sister." Qin Wuyong shouted: "Today when Zhaoyang returned home, you actually talked like this, do you still have the appearance of a younger brother! How can you be an example for all the ministers in the future!"

The emperor's wrath involved the prince again, and all the ministers present stopped what they were doing in an instant. They lowered their heads quietly and faced the emperor's direction, and said in unison: "Your Majesty, calm down."

Qin Li'an knew that his father was really angry, and Emperor Guangxiao Qin Wuyong's love for Zhaoyang was well known in the imperial court, so he also softened his tone and said: "I know I was wrong, I hope elder sister will forgive me."

"It's good to know your mistakes. As a prince, don't be arrogant. After all, you are a role model for the officials. If you can't even achieve harmony between brothers, how can you lead like a minister." Zhaoyang said calmly, but there was a needle in his words.

"Eldest sister is right."

After being reprimanded, Li An was extremely polite, pretending to apologize repeatedly, and then sat down again, but this Donggong has never been a kind master, and this time Zhaoyang returned home, he had planned to give Zhaoyang a Remembering the fierce attack, and Chu Han's plan, he is not in time for a moment of honor and disgrace.

"Chu Qing, how is the arrangement for Jiutian?" Qin Li'an asked in a low voice.

"Before I went to sea for nine days, I checked. There were indeed five ships carrying gunpowder. Mr. Zheng's spies confirmed that the gunpowder was still on board, and nothing would go wrong."

"The news from Chu Qing came quickly." Qin Li'an said.

"Wanshigang destroyed my two strongholds. If there are more news like this in the future, I will have to rest." Chu Han looked regretful.

"Chu Qing, why do you think Gu Ruyang came here with gunpowder?" Qin Li'an said.

"It is said that the Dutch want to attack Dongpu recently. If there is a shortage, I speculate that they must have left Wu'an Port for nine days to make a deal with the Dutch." Chu Han said. His spies are everywhere.

"Okay, then we'll give her a fake one."

The turmoil just now calmed down, and everyone resumed the previous posture, but the drinkers didn't dare to drink so loudly anymore, and the watchers didn't dare to say anything anymore, and the whole outside of the hall became much quieter.

"The son-in-law is about to catch the spirit beast!" Someone suddenly shouted, and everyone's eyes returned to the arena again, and it was unknown which son-in-law they were talking about.

I saw Gu Ruyang riding a horse around the white deer, obviously the deer was exhausted and no longer wanted to run, and looking at Li Tuo and Chen Yi, they stopped a foot away from Gu Ruyang, especially Li Tuo's. The horse, it was no easier than the deer, and it didn't want to go any further.So it really became Gu Ruyang's home court, and Li Tuo's demeanor just now was no longer in the eyes of everyone. Seeing Gu Ruyang going back and forth, sometimes riding a horse high, sometimes blocking the way of the white deer, the white deer seemed to meet her in front of her. The mouse who got on the cat has nothing to do.

Seeing that Gu Ruyang's victory was in sight, she suddenly stopped chasing her. She just picked up her whip and turned around to hit the white deer. The pain made the white deer energized again, and it rushed towards Li Chenyi on a rampage. Chen Yi has never seen this kind of battle before, he originally wanted to turn around on his horse, but his movements were not as agile as Gu Ruyang's, and the white deer bumped into the horse in one fell swoop, the antlers were not just for fun, they went straight into it In the belly of the horse, the horse groaned in pain, and Chen Yi had no strength to control the horse. The horse ran wildly because of the pain, and the antlers were still in its belly, so a person, a horse, and a deer stood in a distorted posture. Run wildly in front of the temple.

Li Tuo was very anxious, and was about to gallop his horse to follow, but found that Gu Ruyang had already gone up. Gu Ruyang was not far behind Chen Yi, but he had no intention of saving him. Everyone in the audience became anxious. But after a while, Chen Yi's horse fell to the ground without moving, only the white deer was still struggling, and Chen Yi stood up in embarrassment. His body was already covered with horse and deer blood. A white deer under the belly of a horse.

"Congratulations to Chen Yi's son-in-law, you have won the first place." Gu Ruyang cupped his hands to Chen Yi.

At this time Li Tuo also came over, he helped Chen Yi to stand up, looked at Bailu and then at Gu Ruyang, but also cupped his hands helplessly and said: "Congratulations son-in-law."

"Officer, don't come to announce the good news yet!"

Gu Ruyang said to the supervisor, who was also a little dazed, and that fellow came running from the side. Since Gu Ruyang and Li Tuo had recognized Chen Yi's victory, Zhang Zhize on the side should have no objection, so he threw a hand at him. A sharp knife was handed to Chen Yi.

"Congratulations to your son-in-law for winning the first prize today, please let the deer blood out."

Since Chen Yi was the one who took the lead, Gu Ruyang didn't want to stay longer in this battle. She lightly waved the whip and drove the horse towards Zhaoyang. , How could it be someone who is not proficient in equestrianism.

"Princess, are you relieved?" Gu Ruyang sat back beside Zhaoyang. Just now, she had had an exciting fight on the horse, and beads of sweat could be seen on her forehead.

Zhaoyang took out a handkerchief and wiped it carefully on Gu Ruyang, but Gu Ruyang only felt that his face was hot, and it was not the first time that he had such close contact with Zhaoyang, but she had that damned dream, she saw Looking at Zhaoyang's face and smelling the faint orchid fragrance on her body, Gu Ruyang felt an urge to kiss her.

"My son-in-law, why did your face turn red suddenly? But you are not feeling well." Zhao Yang asked, his face did not change much when Gu Ruyang dismounted just now.

"No...it's nothing." Gu Ruyang swallowed, "Zhaoyang...I, I seem to..."
