Chapter 150 Field Battle
(Thanks to Brother Bi'an for his monthly tickets, Brother Shenyu for his rewards, and other friends who support Yanzi during the 11th period.)
Although Shi Wei's words meant to imply mock the Liao Kingdom, Xiao Chuo seemed to have no intention of blame.
The Empress remained silent, and even though the Liao ministers on both sides were angry, they did not dare to speak out.
As they were talking to each other, the Milu on the hunting ground had been shot and killed, and the shooters returned one after another.
Yelu Siyun was still the first to take the lead, her face was full of confidence.
Not long after, the archers' respective results were reported, and Yelu Siyun was ranked first among the crowd by shooting and killing nine-headed Milu.
Xiao Chuo immediately ordered to reward Yelu Siyun with a collar of brocade robe and a hundred taels of gold.
Yelu Siyun, who won the first place, looked proud and proud. The Liao ministers who lost to him were not unhappy and congratulated her one after another.
Yelu Siyun rode his horse and walked lucky from Shi Wei, with a slightly raised eyebrows, as if showing off to him.
Shi Wei hurriedly bowed and smiled: "The princess's superb archery skills are really admired by the emperor. Congratulations to the princess for taking the lead."
Hearing Shi Wei's praise, Yelu Siyun couldn't help but feel more happy. When she passed by, she was dancing and quietly threw a charming look at Shi Wei.
Shi Wei saw it and his heart was slightly moved.
The communication between the eyes between the two of them was beyond the eye, but Xiao Chuo, who was separated by a horse, could see clearly, and a smile quietly passed by the corner of her mouth.
After a large-scale collective hunt, everyone hunted separately.
As an envoy of the Song State, Shi Wei naturally followed Xiao Chuo.
Under the protection of more than ten Khitan knights, the two of them hunted along the plains and gradually entered the wild forest at the foot of the Black Mountains.
Although Xiao Chuo was pampered, he was a Khitan woman who had been accustomed to bowing since childhood. Although he had not yet hit a large prey, he had hit a lot of hares, pheasants, etc.
Looking at Shi Wei again, he was empty-handed.
Not to mention archery, for Shi Wei, even riding a horse is a chore.
After he barely shot a few arrows in the air, he was secretly ridiculed by Xiao Chuo and the Khitan knights, he simply stopped showing his clumsiness and just accompanied Xiao Chuo to hunt without any ease.
As he walked, a white rabbit entered his sight.
Xiao Chuoji whispered: "Stone Envoy, did the rabbit in front of him see it? You can take the arrow."
Shi Wei shook his head and said, "The archery technique of the Xiaguan is rough and tight, so I won't waste my prey anymore. Please, please, Empress."
Xiao Chuo said no more, bent his bow and arrow to aim at the prey more than twenty steps away. With a light shout of "Hu", his fingers loosened, and the arrows came out like lightning.
A flash of blood, and the poor white rabbit fell to the ground.
"Good arrow technique." Shi Wei, like other Khitan warriors, cheered.
Xiao Chuo showed pride on his face and turned to Shi Wei and said, "Shi Envoy, since you are not good at archery, then let's compare riding to see who gets the rabbit first."
After saying that, Xiao Chuo waved his whip and rushed out.
Shi Wei wanted to refuse, but Xiao Chuo went out without saying a word, so he had to urge the horse to chase him.
Xiao Chuo's riding skills were not as good as Yelu Siyun, but far better than Shi Wei. In just a blink of an eye, she pulled Shi Wei by more than ten steps.
Shi Wei chased after a few steps and felt that it was meaningless, so he simply strangled the horse's hooves.
Xiao Chuo looked back and saw that Shi Wei was much behind. The princess smiled and wanted to lean over and pick up the rabbit on the ground.
As she turned around, a black bear suddenly jumped out of the woods, roaring and knocking her mount to the ground.
Xiao Chuo was caught off guard and fell to the side with his men and horses. His delicate body fell heavily to the ground.
The sudden change surprised everyone. The Khitan warriors behind him made a move and rode out, waiting to pounce on him to save Xiao Chuo.
But it was too late.
When the reinforcements were still dozens of steps away, the black bear had already pounced on Xiao Chuo who had fallen to the ground.
Life and death are between the lines.
At this time, Shi Wei, who was shocked, had no time to think too much. He raised the bow and arrow in his hand and shot the black bear with an arrow.
With Shi Wei's archery technique, it would be a miracle if he hit the target within five steps, not to mention that it was more than ten steps away.
This arrow was completely out of instinct. Shi Wei was not confident at all when he was shot, not to mention that the black bear had thick skin and flesh. Even if he was lucky enough to shoot it, it would be useless.
However, a miracle happened.
But when Shi Wei heard the black bear's howl, he shot the black bear's left eye incredibly with an arrow.
The black bear, who had a blind eye, was extremely frightened and could not care about hurting Xiao Chuo. He ran away with a scream of pain.
Everything happened too quickly. When Xiao Chuo had no time to scream, she had already escaped from the gates of hell.
Xiao Chuo, who was still in shock, looked at Shi Wei with an extremely horrifying look.
Shi Wei was also shocked at this time.
He never expected that he could shoot so accurately with an arrow, and actually pulled Xiao Chuo out of the gate of hell.
The Khitan warriors, who were also shocked, then rushed forward, some surrounded Xiao Chuo in the middle, while others chased the injured black bear.
Shi Wei then realized, quickly turned over and got off the horse, and rushed up a few steps.
"Empress, have you been hurt? Let me see." With his identity as a doctor, he decisively controlled the situation and pushed a group of Khitan warriors aside.
"It's nothing serious, I just scratched my skin." Xiao Chuo said with lingering fear.
Shi Wei sent someone to take the Jinchuang medicine he carried with him and started a simple bandage for Xiao Chuo on the spot.
Xiao Chuo sat on the rock, looked at Shi Wei who was busy with her, and said gratefully: "It's really thanks to you just now. Otherwise, my life would have been given to that beast."
Shi Wei was busy bandaging her, but just smiled.
Xiao Chuo suddenly laughed again and said, "The Stone Envoy has always said that he is not good at archery skills, but the arrow just now is really amazing. The Love Stone Envoy is a real person who doesn't show his appearance and has been hiding his strength."
In her words, there are more praises, but there are also some secret resentment.
Shi Wei smiled helplessly: "I'm not hiding it, the arrow just now was really shot casually. As for why he shot so by chance, I think it's probably God bless you, Empress."
The Khitans believed in ghosts and gods. After Shi Wei said this, the Khitan warriors around them all thanked the gods and protected them.
Xiao Chuo could also see that Shi Wei was not pretending.
At this moment, she was thinking in her heart, could the life-savior in front of her beloved, who was really the noble person sent to her by God. She first cured her blood and breast disease, and now she saved her life from the claws of the black bear.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt this. Xiao Chuo's eyes at Shi Wei changed quietly.
After bandaging Xiao Chuo, everyone thought that this place should not be kept for a long time, so they immediately got on the horse and looked for the tent and left.
The Khitan guards were very nervous. After all, protecting the queen's safety was his duty. Now, the queen was almost killed by the black bear under their noses. If they were asked to be held accountable, they would probably be severely punished.
Fortunately, Xiao Chuo was quite generous and warned everyone not to make a statement about this matter, so as not to alarm the Liao emperor. In this way, it would be considered as exempting the guards from their faults.
The hunt held by Xiao Chuo to show his force ended with this thrilling surprise.
After this accident, Shi Wei felt that the Liao Kingdom should not stay for a long time, so he should return to China as soon as possible. So Shi Wei asked for farewell the next day.
Xiao Chuo did not try to keep Shi Wei, so he set up a banquet that night, thinking that Shi Wei would leave the next day to see him off.
Emperor Liao still did not attend that banquet due to illness.
Xiao Chuo, who hosted the banquet, seemed to be out of gratitude. He was very enthusiastic about Shi Wei that night, and the wine was a toast with each other.
After more than an hour of banquet, even Shi Wei, who claimed to be an extraordinary person, was slightly drunk.
After the banquet, Shi Wei, who was half drunk and half awake, returned to his tent to rest.
Just as he was lying down, a Khitan woman who claimed to be Yelu Siyun's personal maid came and claimed that Princess Yelu had something important to ask him to gather outside the camp in private.
A private gathering?
Shi Wei thought about it and thought that Yelu Siyun must have known that he was leaving tomorrow, so he had to go on the last date tonight.
If it were normal, Shi Wei would probably refuse, but today it was different. He was half drunk and agreed immediately.
When he thought of Yelu Siyun's cool and heroic posture, her graceful dance, and the scene when he diagnosed her that day, the evil thoughts in Shi Wei's heart grew rapidly.
So he did not bring his guard and followed the maid to leave the camp in a low-key manner and headed to the riverside.
After walking for a while, he turned a hill and the maid stopped moving forward, but pointed to the front and said, "The princess is there, sir, please come here by yourself."
He didn't think much about it, and walked forward a few steps.
The man also turned around when he heard the footsteps.
It was late at this time, the sky was covered with clouds, and the sky was pitch black.
Shi Wei could only tell from her figure and the faint body fragrance that she was a woman, but she could not see her face clearly.
Besides Yelu Siyun, who else can there be?
Shi Wei asked with a smile: "It's a big night, the princess asked me to come to this wilderness ridge. I don't know what's going on?"
Yelu Siyun didn't say anything, and stepped forward and threw herself into her arms. Just when Shi Wei was not in time to react, his wet lips had already kissed his mouth.
Although she didn't say anything, this proactive kiss had already shown her heart.
