morning.

"Your Majesty, the inspection of the Shanglinyuan paddock has been completed, and the Ministry of War has sent people to station first."

"Your Majesty, the imperial guards in charge of guarding Shanglinyuan Palace have also been deployed, and the ministers will definitely protect His Majesty."

"During the hunting, the city defense battalion will maintain the order of the hunting ground."

"The emperor's car is driving, and the marching guard of honor is confirmed..."

"The Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet will be held at the Yueyue Pavilion..."



In the Xuanzheng Hall, the ministers reported their work one by one, and there were so many things that couldn't be separated from autumn hunting and palace banquets.

According to the Dasheng ancestral system, field hunting is carried out in the eighth month of the lunar calendar every year. The emperor leads princes and ministers, princes and princesses, attends the army, drives chariots and horses, and mobilizes the troops.

"Erya Shitian" says: Hunting in spring is searching, hunting in summer is seedlings, hunting in autumn is hunting, and hunting in winter is hunting. It shows its importance.

Dasheng martial arts is different from the hunting in the primitive society to make a living. The emperor's autumn hunting often has the purpose of performing martial arts and training soldiers to show off his combat power.

"Well, that's all?" Li Zifu said after all the ministers had finished speaking, "What does the queen think?"

Bai Qingyang looked at her: "Everything is fine."

Li Zishou: "Then proceed at this pace, and work hard for all Ai Qing."

"The ministers and others obey the order—"

"Let's retreat."

//

"Hey!" A white feather arrow was firmly nailed to the red heart of the target. The tail of the arrow was still vibrating at a high frequency, and it took a few seconds for it to stop.

Li Zifu took out a new arrow from the quiver and put it on the string.

"No!" Yang Dejin slapped heavily on the stakes in the shooting range, and said with a serious expression, "You can't go to autumn hunting!"

Li Zichou glanced at Yang Dejin, then returned to the archery target, and asked suspiciously, "Why?"

"One of the three laws of court strategy literature—every autumn hunt, something big will happen!"

"Hoo-deng!" It hit the bullseye again.

"Someone will kill you this autumn hunting, you can't go." Yang Dejin said plausibly.

"Someone wants to kill me? To assassinate the emperor?" It was the first time Li Zichou heard her say that, and then he couldn't help but pause, "Is this the plot of the original novel?"

Yang Dejin frowned: "Yes, in the original text, Li Chou was assassinated in the Shanglinyuan paddock while hunting. He was seriously injured and his life was hanging by a thread. He was in a coma for two months before waking up."

When Li Zichou heard this, he had to put down what he was doing: "Who will assassinate me, the heroine?"

Yang Dejin hesitated now, pursed her lips and did not speak for a long time.

"Dejin?"

"…it's me."

Li Zichou's pupils dilated slightly: "What...?"

"In the original book, the one who assassinated Li Chou was a prairie man hiding in Shanglinyuan." Yang Dejin said, "But the prairie man was imprisoned for interrogation, and the mastermind who confessed was Prince Da Shengyu."

There was too much information, and Li Zichou didn't react for a while.

"Why did you have something to do with grassland people again..." Li Zichou pressed his temple, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"I just remembered what Xie Zhi said today."

Yang Dejin has been busy in the early morning these few days. She only heard that the Mid-Autumn Festival will be in a few days, but she has no idea that there will be an autumn hunt before the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Originally, in the original text, Autumn Hunting was the first event that marked Li Chou's serious defeat. When Li Chou was in a coma, Bai Qingyang quickly put his focus on Prince Yu to drive a wedge between the monarch and his ministers, paving the way for Prince Yu's subsequent rebellion .

Li Zishou: "Please clarify how the plot of the original book is written."

Yang Dejin said hello, and then slowly said: "It was Li Chou who was assassinated while hunting and was seriously injured. The army sealed off the paddock, and only then did they catch the assassins from Shuobei.

"Dali Temple conducted a strict interrogation, and asked the mastermind behind the scenes, saying that Prince Yu colluded with the people of Shuobei to plot rebellion.

"Because of this incident, the relationship between Dasheng and Shuobei has become even worse, and it is also an important reason for the war between the two countries."

After Yang Dejin finished speaking, he looked at Li Zichou. Li Zichou thought about it and said "collusion..."

Collaboration with the enemy and treason...

Li Zishou: "Isn't the court meeting over? Why do grassland people still appear in Dasheng's royal enclosure?"

Why are these people always haunted.

Yang Dejin: "The grassland people said that Prince Yu came to them, and some of them did not leave Dasheng, but stayed in Linjing.

"This period was also the period when the conflict between Prince Yu and the Queen was the most acute.

"Although the original body denied in every possible way that she intended to assassinate the Holy Majesty, but...the government and the opposition seem to believe it."

Li Zichou: "How does Li Chau deal with Prince Yu?"

Yang Dejin: "She was in a coma for a long time, and the manpower sent by the prince overcame the crowd to protect Prince Yu. This also involved Bai Qingyang's secret manipulation. After all, she still needs Prince Yu as her pawn."

Li Zichou: "So, even if Prince Yu was charged with treason, he didn't get any real punishment."

"yes…"

"But, you and I have already replaced the empress and prince, so there shouldn't be anything to worry about?" Li Zichou didn't understand her worry.

Yang Dejin: "That's why I'm worried! How do you know that Autumn Hunt will not follow the plot this time?"

Li Zishou: "The plot has deviated a lot, the butterfly effect we brought will cause..."

"But the lake tour accident still happened, the conflict between Dasheng and Shuobei in the Zichen Palace also happened, and even the chaos among Shuobei's younger brothers also happened!"

Yang Dejin was a little emotional, her hand hanging by her side was clenched into a fist, and her voice was louder than before.

"Didn't you find that none of the important plots were avoided?!"

Li Zichou was silent, she looked at Yang Dejin, and after a while she asked:

"Will you kill me?"

"Of course not!" Yang Dejin said without hesitation, and then became panicked, "But...but I'm afraid..."

"Are you afraid that we will still be bound by the plot, and the assassination will still happen?"

Yang Dejin's lips were pursed white, and her hands were pinched together helplessly: "I'm afraid... I will hurt you unconsciously."

Li Zichou was stunned.

"If something like that really happened, I'm afraid... I'll never be able to forgive myself..." Yang Dejin murmured.

Li Zichou looked at this friend he had known for eight years, and suddenly seemed to know her again.

Yang Dejin, such an optimistic person, when did he show such panic?

"So Zichou, you can't go to autumn hunting." Yang Dejin put both hands on Li Zichou's shoulders, "It's dangerous."

"Dejin..." Li Zichou looked at her worried face and said helplessly, "Autumn Hunting is not my business alone..."

Yang Dejin: "But among so many people hunting, only you will be in danger, and the assassination is going to you alone."

"I understand, but Autumn Hunting is just around the corner, and it's too late to cancel it now."

"You can leave it alone, don't you have a substitute? Let Lu Xiaoying go hunting instead of you?"

Li Zishou shook his head: "They're coming after me, I can't let others take the risk of their lives for me."

"Then let me watch you take the risk of your life?!" Yang Dejin finally couldn't hold back, and yelled at her.

"..." Li Zishou took away her hand that was gripping his shoulder so painfully, "I am in this position, I have no other choice, this is my responsibility."

"I have to consider not only myself, but also the officials and the common people.

"If it's not up to me to deal with it, someone else will be hurt.

"If something is bound to happen, it's useless to avoid it blindly, so let me solve it."

Li Zishou's eyes were calm, and he didn't appear flustered by learning about these things. Yang Dejin knew that she couldn't shake her thoughts and decisions. Li Zishou was the kind of person who would smash through the south wall even if he hit it.

"Li Zifu... You are addicted to being an emperor, right?" Yang Dejin looked at her very sadly, his words were sarcasm and full of irony.

At this moment, she felt that she was the one who met each other for the first time.

"Can you take care of yourself! Someone will worry about you!" Yang Dejin grabbed the collar of her arrow robe and shouted at her.

Yang Dejin's movements were a bit rough, Li Zifu was pulled by the collar, and he raised his hand to hold the other's wrist reflexively, and looked at her in astonishment: "Yang Dejin..."

She's... angry.

"You are responsible and responsible, you are amazing, you are not afraid of death, I am the only **** idiot!" Yang Dejin was already furious at the moment, "I am so stupid to come here to persuade you! Do you think I am being mean? !"

It was the first time for Li Zichou to see Yang Dejin get angry, so she couldn't help being a little frightened. She hurriedly said: "Dejin, don't...you see, you have become Prince Yu, so you have no reason to go to the prairie people, right? And...nor Reason to assassinate...

"No matter how restrictive the plot is, it will not ignore the law of cause and effect to forcibly change people's actions...

"Maybe...maybe nothing will happen? The Autumn Hunt will end successfully, you and I will be safe...maybe, right?"

Yang Dejin's expression was uneasy, the veins in her hands were bulging, and her lapel was pinched into creases. She stared at Li Zifu for a moment.

"Then what if something really happened?" Yang Dejin gritted her teeth and said with a hideous expression.

"Then take this opportunity to find out those young people, so...!" Li Zifu's neckline was suddenly loosened, and he was pushed back two steps.

Yang Dejin sneered: "You **** want to gamble with your own life!"

Li Zichou: "How do you know that I will be the one who suffers?!"

Yang Dejin stared at her, shook her head slightly, and said what she said seemed to be talking to herself: "No matter what, I won't...I won't just sit and watch...I won't let that kind of thing happen..." After finishing speaking, she Then he turned and left.

"Stop!" Li Zichou's voice came from behind.

Yang Dejin paused.

"Yang Dejin, I will definitely go to Autumn Hunt." Li Zichou's voice became cold and hard, "You must go too!"

Yang Dejin didn't respond, just took another step and left the shooting range.

Li Zichou watched her leaving back with an unclear expression, not knowing what he was thinking.

Fifty paces away, there were still two white-feathered arrows nailed to the bull's-eye, both of which were shot towards the red dot in the center, but hit different targets.

In the huge Beiya shooting range, she was the only one left in the end.

//

In a mansion in the capital.

"How about the deployment of Shanglinyuan?"

A man replied respectfully: "The men and horses have been arranged long ago, there will be no difference."

"Where are those prairie people?"

"Sneaked in too."

"Keep an eye on them, I don't trust foreigners."

"yes."

The man took a clean cloth and gently wiped the blade of the dagger: "I warned her several times before, but she didn't know how to praise her, so don't blame me for killing the king and usurping the throne."

Hearing this, the man quickly knelt on the ground to express his loyalty: "This great prosperity belongs to your Highness, so why do you say that you killed the king and usurped the throne? Only when the big man is done, the world will be regarded as returning to its original owner."

The person in charge gave a low laugh, as if he was pleased: "Get up, it's tomorrow, let the people under your hands sharpen their knives faster."

"I understand, my lord." The man got up and took the order, and immediately went to do the things the master explained.

The blade of the dagger was polished brightly, and the cold light reflected a pair of ambitious pupils.

"Sheng Chao, the sky is about to change..."

The author has something to say:

Yang Dejin: I'm so mad, I'll give you a punch!

Li Zifu: Rebound!

The three laws of court intrigue:

The emperor's siblings must be rebellious

Big things happen every autumn hunting

The protagonist will be stabbed in the back
