Looking forward, the cornices of the star-giving palace are faintly visible, but the tiger chasing after him has killed all the guards who stayed behind to fight it, and the guards around Lin Qing are all trying to drag the tiger's actions with their lives. , To fight for Lin Qing to escape.

But when he ran so far, there was only Lin Qing left in the forest.

Hearing the tiger roar close at hand behind him, he stopped running abruptly, drew a short knife from his waist, turned around and rushed towards the tiger.

I can't escape anyway, so let's fight it!

Lin Qing could no longer feel the stomachache and discomfort at this time, he rushed into the canthus, thinking that even if he died, he would have to gouge it out.

Just as he turned around, there was a sharp shout not far away: "Prince avoid!"

At this moment, Lin Qing's nerves collapsed to the extreme, and his reaction force was extremely fast. Although his brain hadn't reacted yet, his body had already given a movement and rolled to the side. At the same time, a sharp blade glowing with cold pierced the air. , Flew from a distance and pierced the tiger's left eye.

The tiger was injured and bitter, and roared frantically. Lin Qing looked up and saw that Concubine Xi, who was already close in front of him, jumped from the back of the white horse, holding a short knife, and dived toward the tiger from mid-air.

One person and one tiger suddenly started fighting.

Although Xi Tan had hurt his muscles on the battlefield, he had a solid foundation in kung fu, and he was very good at light work. He was very flexible. When he went up and down, the tiger was blinded in one eye, and she was teased by her. Going round and round, more and more violent.

After all, Xi Tan was injured, and his arm hurt when he tried hard. The roaring tiger swiped a paw on his shoulder, instantly tore off a piece of flesh, and fell heavily to the ground.

The tiger did not take the opportunity to bite her, but pounced on Lin Qing again.

A mouthful of blood poured out of Xi Tan's throat, he gritted his teeth and patted the ground, leaped forward, grabbed the tiger's tail, and yelled at Lin Qing: "Run!"

Lin Qingxue's eyes were red, knowing that Concubine Xi was probably going to die if she left. She came to save her, but she ignored her. Such a ruthless and unrighteous act of greed for life and fear of death should be despised by the world.

Thinking of this, Lin Qing not only did not run, but picked up his short knife and rushed towards the tiger.

Xi Tan was almost **** off by him.

Lin Qing is the prince of a country, which is related to Dalin's foundation. If something happens to him, North Korea will inevitably be turbulent due to the crown prince. In history, because of the seizure of reserves and throne, the country will fall apart and foreign enemies will take advantage of it.

As a general, she would never tolerate this happening even if she was fighting for her life.

She can no longer protect her country on the battlefield. Protecting the prince from accidents is the only thing she can do now.

Xi Tan's eyes condensed, his right hand grabbed the tiger's tail and wrapped it around his palm twice, and then slammed it back. The tiger ate painfully and frantically, turning his head back to bite, Xi Tan leaned back, his back pressed against the ground, his whole body She almost folded it in half, and slid down on the tiger's body, holding the knife on her elbow and swiping forward, the sharp blade burst open, and blood spewed out, pouring all of her pale face.

The tiger's deafening roar lowered, his huge body collapsed heavily, convulsed twice, and gradually lost his breath.

The forest was silent for a while.

Xi Tan raised his hand to wipe the blood on his face, slowly sat up from the ground, frowned and looked at Lin Qing: "Is the prince injured?"

Lin Qing was still stunned. The panic and fear of escaping from death came at the moment the tiger fell to the ground, and even the stomach pain that he had forgotten for a while seemed more serious than before. Lin Qing shook his body, knelt down and panted with her stomach.

There was a rush of horseshoes not far away, coming from the direction of the palace. The guard escorting the driver hurriedly arrived and ran towards the two in panic.

"The subordinate **** is late! Please forgive the prince!"

Lin Qing was already unable to speak. When she raised her head, she saw Lin Feilu, who was at the end of the team, swaying over on a large horse.

When she got off the horse, she staggered, and rushed to him with her hands and feet. The usual soft and sweet voice was rarely serious and worried: "Prince brother, are you okay? Are you injured?"

Lin Qing was sour in her heart and slowly looked towards the path.

All the way are the bodies of guards.

Lin Feilu followed his line of sight and saw the fragments and corpses all over the floor, and smelled the strong **** smell brought by the wind. His face changed and he vomited on the spot.

Lin Qing couldn't care about her uncomfortableness, so he hurriedly stroked her back and ordered the guard next to him: "Hurry up and take the fifth princess out of here!"

Lin Feilu saw such a **** scene for the first time. It was really shocking. He vomited in the dark. When he was hugged by the guards, he remembered turning his head and shouting Xi Tan: "Niang, are you okay?"

Xi Tan was supported on the horse by the guards, and his expression remained as indifferent as before, "It's okay, I'll go back to the palace."

Some of the guards escorted them back to the palace, while the other remained to clean up the scene.

When Lin Di got the news and rushed back, it was already an hour later.

Had it not been for he knew that no one dared to deceive the king, I would have thought it was a bad joke.

When the prince and Xiaowu left, the large group had not yet penetrated into the hinterland of the mountains and forests. The beasts only haunted deep in the mountains and forests. They couldn't meet even hunting tigers. How could they be met on the edge of the mountains and forests? !

But when they got to the place where they met the tiger, everyone could smell the **** smell in the air that hadn't finished.

Although the guards cleaned up the broken arm and limb, watching the blood splashing around can still imagine the miserable situation at that time.

All the small troops who had escorted the prince were killed, and the guards who reported back and forth were stationed in the palace.

All I knew was that the five princesses rode all the way back and said that the crown prince met the tiger. It happened that the concubine Xi Gui was walking nearby and took the white horse and rushed forward. When they arrived, the concubine Xi had already killed the tiger.

Lin Di's face was terrible, and after returning to the palace, he went straight to the prince.

Although Lin Qing was not injured, he suffered from stomachache and was greatly frightened. The situation was not good. The imperial doctor who accompanied him had prescribed medicine for him to take. Because the medicine contained sleeping ingredients, Lin Qing had passed out at this time. .

Emperor Lin didn't wake him up. He heard that Xiao Wu was in the concubine Xi's palace, so he went straight to Concubine Xi again.

Compared with Lin Qing, Concubine Xi's injury was more serious.

She was slapped on the claw by the tiger, her skin and flesh were torn off, her shoulders were **** and bloody, and her internal force was moved, causing the blood to reverse, and the injured muscles and veins were impacted, like the pain of broken muscles and bones.

But she didn't say a word, except for her pale face, she could hardly see that she was enduring the unbearable pain of ordinary people.

When Emperor Lin came over, Lin Feilu was sitting next to Concubine Xi’s bed drinking medicine. She almost vomited her bile on the way back, and she was very frightened. The imperial doctor also prescribed medicine to her. As soon as she finished drinking, the maid next to her immediately handed the candied fruit, and Lin Feilu stuffed it into her mouth, chewing and crawling over to Xi Tan who was half lying on the bed.

He wrinkled his face and asked, "Manny, do you still hurt?"

Concubine Xi Gui gave her a sideways look: "It doesn't hurt, you won't go back? What are you doing with me?"

Lin Feilu said: "I'm worried about the empress."

Concubine Xi: "Are you worried that I won't hurt anymore?"

Lin Feilu: "Didn't the empress say it doesn't hurt?"

Concubine Xi: "..."

Xiao Douding looked teary, but her tone was very real: "Say it if it hurts. No one will laugh at the empress, girls don't need to be so strong." She said, leaning to her shoulders, and whispered twice. under.

Concubine Xi Gui looked startled.

No one had ever told her before that girls don't need to be so strong.

The pain can also be said.

The parents just told her that the children of the Xi family shed blood but not tears. Those who guard the common people at dawn must not cry out for pain.

The first time I heard such words, it was from a child.

Xi Tan was a bit funny and moved. Before he could speak, Emperor Lin's impatient voice came from the door: "Tan'er! I'm late!"

Xi Tan: "..." She lifted her eyes to look, and returned to the faint expression, "Your Majesty is not too late, not too soon, not too late."

Emperor Lin walked over quickly, picked up Lin Feilu, who was lying on the bed, and hugged him in his arms. He held his daughter in one hand and Xi Tan's hand in the other. His heart was full of emotion: "Thanks to my Xiaowu and Aifei, otherwise...hey!"

After finishing speaking, she looked at Concubine Xi with admiration: "I didn't expect Ai Concubine to be able to slay the tiger with her own power without losing her skill back then!"

Xi Tan was startled by his eyes with goose bumps, and immediately drove people unceremoniously: "The concubines are fine, but they are a little tired. Your Majesty should go and see the tiger corpse brought back by the guards."

Emperor Lin hugged Lin Feilu and stood up: "The concubine loves to have a good rest. I will take Xiaowu away first, and I will see you later."

Lin Feilu obediently waved to Concubine Xi, and was hugged and left by Emperor Lin.

Emperor Lin had learned from the guards that if the five princesses hadn't come back for help, the prince might have died today. Earlier, he had listened to the old fourth, saying that the fifth sister is his lucky god, now it seems that this is really a little lucky star in the palace.

Emperor Lin did not rush to see the tiger attacking today, but first sent Lin Feilu back to the Lotus Palace.

The escorted guards were all dead, and the prince fell asleep again. Lin Di could only ask Xiao Wu what happened before.

Although Lin Feilu knew that there must be something wrong with the tiger, she could see the problem from the fact that it only chased Lin Qing and bit by one person, but she didn't say anything, she just told straight about the process she saw. .

Emperor Lin nodded thoughtfully, took her back to the lotus palace, gave Xiao Lan a few words, and left in a hurry.

...

The tiger's body was carried back by the guards and placed in the side hall.

Emperor Lin was also a person who had seen the big scene. At this time, when he saw the tiger's blood-hole-like left eye, and then looked at it almost fatally wounded, thinking about Ai Concubine's usual cold and indifferent appearance, he couldn't help but shiver. .

Worthy of being a female Yama.

Really ruthless.

He looked around with his hand, and the tiger was dead, and he couldn't see anything. He only asked the guard in a deep voice, "Why did the tiger appear on the edge of the forest? Can you find the reason?"

Where can I find the reason? Maybe this tiger is in a good mood to hang out?

Of course, the guards didn't dare to say that, they only guessed: "My Majesty, it may be that the mountains have been rainy recently, and the little beasts have hid, and the tigers can't find food, so they haunt the edge."

In this era of cold weapons, beasts are very dangerous and powerful for humans, not to mention the tiger, the beast of the king of beasts.

Wild beasts attack people every year. When the prince and princess meet the tiger, everyone thinks it is an accident, and no one thinks about artificial reasons. Had it not been for Lin Feilu's own eyes that the tiger had only attacked Lin Qing alone, I am afraid he would not have noticed any tricks in it.

After investigating for a long time, Emperor Lin didn't ask what the result was. Adhering to the principle of not wasting, he asked people to peel off the tiger skin, intending to reward Xi Tan.

Concubine is afraid of the cold, so in winter, she will spread this tiger skin on the couch as a cushion, which is both majestic and warm. It must be great.

This happened on the first day of Xia Shou. In ancient times, everything had to be fortune-telling. The people of the Qin Tianjian also said it was not good. The Emperor Lin felt that hunting might not be suitable this year, and Xia Shou stopped afterwards.

Lin Qing woke up in the evening. After taking the medicine, the stomach discomfort had subsided. Accompanied by the palace man, he went to thank the concubine Xi.

Concubine Xi’s shoulder injury was a trivial matter. It was just that she was annoyed by the old injuries caused by her internal force. After Xi Xingjiang went to Hese to see Lin Feilu, she came back and stayed here.

Seeing Lin Qing was about to worship, Xi Tan asked Xi Xingjiang to stop the people.

She is a concubine, how can she stand the prince's gift.

Lin Qing said solemnly through the curtain: "Today's noble concubine's help is unforgettable."

Concubine Xi's faint voice floated from inside: "The prince is safe, it is my Dalin who is safe. It is the matter of the minister, so the prince does not have to take it in his heart."

Lin Qing had only occasionally heard of the great justice of the Xi family from the Taifu's mouth, and Xi Xingjiang's usual style of work was very turbulent, and he didn't really care about it at first. After this encounter, it was considered that Xi's family was thoroughly experienced.

No one can feel the thrills of his life and death.

Even though Xi Xingjiang stopped him, Lin Qing bowed slightly before walking out of the hall with heavy steps.

The guards were all dead, only he and Xiao Wu witnessed the situation. Not to mention the fact that she was young in her fifth year. At that time, she probably didn't notice the strangeness of the tiger. After she threw the rabbit, she was taken away by the frightened white horse, and she did not see the scene afterwards.

The tiger only chased after him with a bite.

Now telling others, how many people can believe?

Even he himself felt absurd.

Lin Qing returned to the temple in silence all the way, his personal guard immediately greeted him, and whispered: "His Royal Highness, the subordinates went to check the food left over from yesterday. It is non-toxic, but..."

Lin Qing looked up.

The guard said: "The subordinates took all the food that His Royal Highness ate yesterday and went to see Doctor Gao. Doctor Gao said that Xiaoguo and Quercus are both cold foods. Although they are non-toxic, if they are eaten at the same time, they will increase the cold. , Causing stomach pain."

The meals in the palace are under the unified responsibility of the Imperial Dining Room. These two types of food are not rare things. If someone deliberately replaces the fruit after dinner with Xiaoguo, it is not impossible.

Lin Qingxiu clenched his fists tightly, and the guard watched his expression and tentatively asked: "His Royal Highness, do you want to report this matter to your Majesty for further investigation?"

"Detailed investigation? How to investigate?" Lin Qing sneered, "There is no evidence for the death of the tiger, and the food can be said to have been eaten by me. When I quarreled in front of my father, but I couldn't produce evidence, I didn't like it. We were slandered by the opposing generals."

The guard hesitated: "His Royal Highness already knows, who did this?"

Lin Qing looked at the darkening sky outside the window, and said in a low and deep tone: "Tell her to send someone to investigate the recent actions of Ruan Xiang's Mansion. This matter is definitely not good at this matter."
