Chapter 170

Li Shimin went out of the palace at the end of spring hunting, passed Mingde Gate at Chenshi, and arrived at Kunming Lake at Sishi.

More than [-] forbidden troops have guarded all the main roads to the east of Kunming Lake, except for birds and animals, not a single person can enter.

The emperor went hunting, and thousands of riders came out in clouds, and the banners fluttered outside the Kunming Lake, hunting with the wind, and under the banners, not only the Tang people, but also Turkic, Sogdian, Khitan and other people of different races. , There are also some meanings of all nations coming to the DPRK.

Li Ke followed behind Li Shimin, looking at everything in front of him, as if he saw the scene of hunting in Jielijin Mountain a few years ago when he was still in Turkic, how similar it is.

It’s just that Jieli was at the end of its strength at that time, and that hunt was the last glory of Jieli, which meant that the former Turkic northern power was about to be destroyed, but now the Tang Dynasty is just rising. The Great Tang dominates the world, the beginning of the surrender of the whole world.

"I have been in charge of the world since the end of the ninth year of Wude. It has been nearly six years. During the six years, I worked hard every day and managed the government unswervingly. I was afraid that I would hurt the entrustment of the late emperor if I slack off. Fortunately, God looked down on me. Since I ascended the throne, the weather has been favorable everywhere and the people have been in good health. This is the reason for today’s prosperous age. Hunting today is not just for entertainment, but also a battle of martial arts among the generals of the Tang Dynasty. Whoever wins the first place will be rewarded heavily!"

When the time came, people gathered around the entrance of the hunting ground. Following Li Shimin's order, everyone rushed into the hunting ground.

The Tang Dynasty established the country with martial arts, and the children of Guanzhong were even more righteous. Therefore, among the sons of the rich and powerful in Chang'an, there are many good hunters. Fighting to be the first, so most of the people who ended up hunting this time were the younger generation of generals and officials in the middle and middle courts, and most of them were in the years of weak crowns.

Li Ke's archery skills are extraordinary, and Li Shimin knew it early on, but shooting on horseback is very different from shooting at a target. Therefore, before Li Ke left the court, Li Shimin specially instructed Li Ke, but Li Shimin didn't know that Li Ke was best at shooting at a horse. .

When the enclosure of the hunting ground was wide open, Li Ke hung up his gun, raised his bow, mounted his horse, and moved freely. He took three or five guards and led him, and the pure white Dawan horse was swept into the hunting ground like the wind.

Li Ke's luck was not bad. He just entered the hunting ground for a while, and saw a musk deer heading to his left.

Li Ke's eyes were sharp and his hands were quick. Seeing this, he immediately drew his bow and set up an arrow, aiming at the direction where the musk deer was running, with a sound of "咻", the sharp arrow hit the back of the musk deer's neck, and the musk deer fell to the ground.

"Your Highness is good at archery!"

The place where the camphor fell was four feet away from Li Ke, and the fragrant deer ran extremely fast, so Li Ke's arrow was not easy, and the guards of the Wangfu who followed behind Li Ke all praised it.

"Shut up!"

Li Ke reined in the horse's head, pointed at the fragrant deer that had fallen on the ground, and said to the guard behind him: "It's a little thinner, but this is my king's good start, you go and take it down."

"No." Hearing this, Wang Fu led the guards, got off his horse and picked up the fragrant deer, ready to tie it on the horse's back.

Just when one of Li Ke's guards was tying up the musk deer, suddenly, a gust of wind blew past, and the leaves on the undergrowth were also pushed down. An adult deer.

The musk deer is too small. The musk deer that Li Ke hunted was at most about [-] jin, but the deer in front of him was much bigger, at least at least [-] jin.

When Li Ke saw it, he was overjoyed. How could he care about the fragrant deer, so he immediately drew his bow here, intending to shoot the deer.

But this flower deer was already alert, and when Li Ke just took the arrow, the flower deer turned around and ran away.

Seeing this, Li Ke left only one bodyguard here to tie up the musk deer, and he brought the remaining four bodyguards to chase after him.

The lakeside of Kunming is rich in water and grass, and there are a lot of dwarf trees. In addition, the deer are running extremely fast. Li Ke tried to shoot his bow and arrows several times, but the deer hid in the undergrowth in the blink of an eye. Li Ke could not find it. Seeing a good opportunity to shoot an arrow, he had to ride his horse and chase after it.

Li Ke's crotch is riding a steed, Dawanliang, which was gifted to him by Zhishenli. It runs like the wind, which is rare in the world. Naturally, it can keep up with the fleeing flower deer, but the horses of Li Ke's personal guards are just ordinary soldiers. War horses, how can they compare with Li Ke's? Li Ke's Dawan Liangju can catch up with Hualu, but it is difficult for them, and they are left far behind by Li Ke in just a cup of tea.

Li Ke chased the flower deer all the way to the lake, but the flower deer had no other way to run around, and the only way was to go straight along the river. At this moment, Li Ke's opportunity came.

Li Kexin took out the sharp arrow in the quiver with his hand, and suddenly shot the arrow, which hit the flower deer's hind leg. The flower deer's hind leg suffered pain, and it also threw itself to the lake, unable to move.

Seeing this, Li Ke showed a smile on his face, and even if he got off his horse, he wanted to go forward and tie the flower deer himself, but when Li Ke was walking towards the flower deer with the straw rope, suddenly a gust of cold wind blew straight at Li Ke. Li Ke couldn't help shuddering at the back of Ke's neck, and even his hairs stood on end.

Li Ke suddenly had a feeling that there seemed to be a pair of eyes staring at him behind him.

Li Ke turned around apprehensively, and with just one glance, his heart sank to the bottom of the valley. It turned out that just behind him five feet away, a colorful tiger was staring at his direction, and he didn't know whether it was looking at him or He looked at the deer behind him, or he wanted them all.

This fierce tiger is less than two meters long, obviously not yet an adult, but for Li Ke, this is scary enough.

In Li Ke's view, the deer is his prey, but in the eyes of the tiger, why is Li Ke not its prey?Thinking about it, Li Ke couldn't help feeling horrified.

If Li Ke had a bow and arrow in his hand, there might still be a glimmer of life, but now Li Ke's bow and arrow are being hung on the horse, as are the knives and guns, and the horse is being tied to a tree three feet away by him, and he is also frightened. trembling.

Now Li Ke is unarmed and only has a rope, but this rope can only be used to tie up the injured flower deer, how to tie up the tiger that is about to grow up?

At this time, Li Ke's personal guards had been left far behind by him, at least within a hundred meters, there was only Li Ke alone.

Perhaps after a while, when his bodyguards found him by the lake, all they could see was a pile of unrecognizable bones.

The tiger stared at Li Ke, its pale yellow eyes motionless. At this moment, it seemed that the whole world had quieted down. Li Ke seemed to be able to hear the sound of the tiger breathing, and his legs trembled unconsciously.

He was once besieged by wild wolves in the Turkic valley, but those were just hungry wolves who had been hungry for a long time and lacked strength, but now he encountered fierce tigers.

"Could it be possible that I'm going to be the first prince in the Tang Dynasty to be eaten by a tiger?" Li Ke looked at the tiger approaching step by step, feeling a little desperate in his heart.

"Ow!"

There was another loud roar that shook Li Ke's ears, and the tiger suddenly rushed up.

Li Ke is not Qin Shubao, nor Yu Chigong. Although this tiger is still a full-grown adult, Li Ke is not capable of fighting with bare hands. Li Ke watched the fierce tiger rushing, and there were only two words in his mind-my life is over.
