Chen, causing a relieved smile to appear on his face. “These silver coins, after all, have been found safely!”"With calamities plaguing us year after year, this sum of money can indeed alleviate the p...Chapter 1238: Hunting

"Your Highness is in such high spirits, why not go hunting a few wild boars" Su Zhenting asked.

"Alright, this palace finds it rather pointless to capture some wild rabbits."

Li Chen said, and then saw someone carrying a set of fine bows and arrows.

"Don't use this."

Li Chen waved his hand, politely refusing the set of bows and arrows without making a sound.

Just kidding, ancient bows and arrows weren't like the toys you see nowadays. Ordinary people couldn't even pull them back! Even well-trained soldiers needed years of practice to draw a high-quality set of bows and arrows, with arm strength training being the most crucial aspect.

Li Chen certainly wasn't going to embarrass himself in front of Su Zhetin, especially Wan Jiaojiao.

He took out a jet-black fire poker from his arms and Li Chen laughed, "This palace will use this."

Su Zhen Ting took a bow and arrow set, saying, "Your Highness is accustomed to using firearms, so use it. However, I will not give Your Highness any leeway."

Li Chen let out a hearty laugh and urged his horse forward, saying, "Let's wait and see."

Wild boars are considered fierce wild animals no matter where they are.

And wild boars are gregarious animals, usually living in groups of three generations or even more, acting collectively. Therefore, if you encounter a wild boar, there is actually a certain degree of danger.

Li Chen and Su Zhen's identities, even when going to the royal hunting grounds, would be impossible to move alone. Li Chen wasn't so arrogant as to let a large contingent of guards follow him.

"If you are protecting me, then protect me properly. Don't try to deliberately injure a single prey for me to hunt later, I will discover it once and deduct one month's salary from all of you."

Since we're out to have fun, we naturally want to enjoy ourselves. Li Chen wasn't that competitive, so he warned his guards beforehand.

Several guards looked at each other in surprise, instantly extinguishing the thought they had just had of catching a few wild boars to send to the emperor's side. Each one responded respectfully with "yes."

As soon as Li Chen finished speaking, there was a loud "bang" – the sound of a bowstring being released after being stretched to its limit.

Li Chen turned his head and saw Su Zhen Ting riding a black horse, having just shot an arrow.

That arrow flew out like a meteor, so fast that the naked eye couldn't even catch a glimpse of it.

Immediately afterward, a pained roar of a beast echoed from tens of meters away.

An arrow stuck in the prey's flank trembled slightly with its struggles and movements, serving as the best beacon.

In a short while, the prey lay motionless in the grass.

Immediately, a guard ran forward, grabbed a badger, and exclaimed, "General Su, it's a badger! A heavy one!"

"Haha!"

Su Zhenning laughed loudly, turned his head and said to Li Chen: "Your Highness, I opened the business first."

Li Chen was too lazy to pay attention to this half-century-old man who was surprisingly obsessed with winning and losing.

Turning his head, Li Chen said to the guard beside him, "Don't you hurry and find prey for this palace"

"Just find it, this palace will do it myself!"

Wàn Jiāojiāo, who was standing beside him, saw the prince's anxious and flustered expression clearly and couldn't help but cover her mouth and giggle.

I only felt that the Crown Prince in front of me, was like a real person with flesh and blood, rather than an aloof imperial heir.

The guards were in an uproar, but luckily the royal hunting ground was stocked with plenty of prey. After a while, the guards found one for Li Chen.

Watching a squirrel munching on pine cones up in the tree, Li Chen sighed and couldn't be bothered to pay attention to the group of guards beside him who were even more anxious than he was.

"This palace shall hunt wild boar!"

Li Chen's vow had barely landed when a deafening roar shook the land. around him.Li Songru's discontent and resistance shown just now were a retaliation against his distrust, but more importantly, a challenge to his authority."All your fame, wealth and power are given...
