Chapter 279
The daughter of Zhenbei Hou and Xiao Hongyu, the eldest lady of the Xiao family, beat a tiger to death with her own hands!
News swept through every tent like a storm.
Not only the powerful ministers who were nesting in the tent, but even the soldiers stationed in the camp were curious and wanted to see with their own eyes what the rumored tiger-beating heroine looked like.
To be honest, the strong man who killed the tiger was only seen in his life when they saw the young lady who killed the tiger was the only one who killed the tiger!
Zhao Jingyan, the wife of Zhenbei Hou, was the first to rush out after hearing the news. When the guards who accompanied him came to report the news, Mrs. Zhao almost fainted on the spot, her mind was filled with blood and her injuries.
When she rushed out, she saw Xiao Hongyu riding her little red horse, walking into the military camp like a general who had returned from victory. Her blood was pitiful and fierce. Several guards behind her were carrying a huge tiger corpse, and her drooping tiger head was beyond recognition... It was over, and Mrs. Zhao's legs and feet were almost falling to the ground.
"My mother!" Xiao Hongyu rushed to Mrs. Zhao who was held by the maid in time, "No matter how happy you are, you won't faint from being so happy!"
The outspoken Xiao Hongyu had no idea what her mother, Mrs. Zhao, was worried about now.
Mrs. Zhao trembled and held Xiao Hongyu's arm "Daughter."
"My mom, I'm here."
"Do you plan to never get married in this life?" Mrs. Zhao was angry and weak.
"Not getting married? It's great not to get married. You can stay by my mother happily for the rest of your life... Ah! Why are you beating me?" Xiao Hongyu didn't feel any pain, just wondering.
赵夫人生气地瞪着她“你还不想嫁人?现在已经不是你要不要嫁人的问题,而是整个长安的勋贵都不敢娶你!谁敢往家里娶一个打虎的女英雄?想让自家儿子也变成你拳下的老虎吗?谁家儿子能比老虎抗揍?”
Xiao Hongyu probably thought about it until her grandmother got angry.
"I am eliminating the harm for the people..."
"I will abandon you today!"
Xiao Hongyu quickly slipped to the side.
When the mother and daughter were quarreling, more and more noble officials appeared near the tiger corpse. Until a bright yellow figure came with beauty and appeared nearby, the atmosphere suddenly condensed.
"I heard that there was a tiger-beating heroine in Chang'an?" Emperor Jing Yuan asked with a smile, "Where is it? Why don't you let me see it?"
"Your Majesty, your mother, please stop making trouble." Xiao Hongyu took the opportunity to slip away, patted the dust on her body, raised her hand, "Your Majesty! My daughter is here!"
Mrs. Zhao looked at Xiao Hongyu's back with anger and amused look.
Emperor Jing Yuan also squinted his eyes and looked at Xiao Hongyu.
Concubine Zhao beside him exclaimed, “Are Madam Xiao injured?”
Xiao Hongyu smiled and waved his hand, "It's all the blood of that tiger, I haven't been hurt much." As for the small scratches, small scratches, small bruises, etc., of course, they are not worth mentioning.
"Okay!" Emperor Jing Yuan suddenly praised, "I am worthy of being the daughter of Zhenbei Hou! I have the style of being a father! I am a dog-free girl in the general's sect!"
Xiao Hongyu's eyes were bright and bright, "Well, can my daughter get any reward?"
"Your Majesty!" Mrs. Zhao took the lead and walked up. "The little girl is just joking. How could she be shameless and ask for rewards? There were so many guards in the mountains just now. I heard that even Ning Shijiulang was there. The little girl just made her contribution. She must not dare to fall into her with such a great contribution to killing tigers!"
Xiao Hongyu was angry and wanted to defend herself, but was pinched by Mrs. Zhao.
Emperor Jingyuan said, "Mrs. Zhao doesn't have to be humble. I have heard from Shijiulang that this tiger was indeed killed by Madam Xiao himself. As for this reward, this time it was originally a winter hunt. If someone can beat the tiger, he naturally can't take it too much."
After Emperor Jing Yuan finished speaking, he rewarded Xiao Hongyu with some gold, silver and treasures, plus a heavy bow made of black iron.
"This is my beloved thing. You little girl must cherish it."
Xiao Hongyu was ecstatic and looked at the black iron bow that was ten times heavier than her. "My daughter will definitely cherish it!"
Emperor Jing Yuan laughed out loud.
When Prince Zhou heard His Majesty’s smile, he arrived late, and his sleeves were filled with fragrant wind.
"Concubine, come and see. This is a tiger that our heroine beats down with her own hands." Emperor Jing Yuan called Concubine Zhou and hugged her gently.
Concubine Zhou looked as usual, and she was amazed at Xiao Hongyu's force like others, and also said with emotion.
"I really don't know whose son will be cheaper in the future."
While speaking, Concubine Zhou's eyes were filled with smiles, and she was not angry because of the failure of the plan.
Since you don’t want her husband, then... no one wants to marry, wouldn’t it be better?
Concubine Zhou smiled with satisfaction, but unexpectedly the plan was achieved in disguise.
Xiao Hongyu didn't know the malice under the noble and beautiful skin of Concubine Zhou, and she couldn't let go of the black iron bow, wishing she could try it out immediately.
But Mrs. Zhao felt something was wrong. After returning to the tent with Xiao Hongyu, she couldn't wait to pull her to ask about the situation just now.
Xiao Hongyu was busy changing the wash, and finished speaking in a few words, then left.
Left Mrs. Zhao sitting on the couch in a daze, her expression changing.
...
When the news of Xiao Hongyu's fight against the tiger shocked the entire actor.
Jiang Xi, who passed by Chu Ji, also returned to the tent to change the clothes.
When she changed her clothes, she was still thinking that if Chu Ji could see through her vest as Ning Yan said, then she would be careful in the next few days and try not to meet Chu Ji.
Jiang Xi didn't dare to bet on that possibility. Being recognized by Chu Ji is much more dangerous than being recognized by Ning Qi!
After all, Ning Yan is one of the few people who knows that she is dressed as a man, but Chu Ji is truly ignorant.
Before Jiang Xi could confront Chu Ji, he could only hide everything first.
Just so happened that King Qi's good show of fighting tigers also gave Jiang Xi a reason to stay in the tent in the next few days. As we all know, Jiang Yuanniang is weak, and it is reasonable to lie in the tent to recuperate after being frightened.
Jiang Xi thought, and his mood was much lighter.
She did not forget to instruct Afu to deliver the injured medicine prepared by Mr. Lou Chen to Xiao Hongyu - the girl who only knows how to show off her power. When she came back, Jiang Xi noticed that she was secretly pressing her ribs several times. She probably was injured and had to pretend to be nothing.
But according to Jiang Xi's observation, her injuries should not be serious. It was probably just some bruises and hits. She could recover from the wound medicine prepared by Mr. Shanglou Chen in his own hands.
In fact, Jiang Xi originally wanted to see Xiao Hongyu in person, but she saved her life today.
However, Jixing heard news that he found the location of the suspected Zhoutian star plate.
It turned out to be in Jiang E's tent!
...
Jiang E was sitting in a tent drinking tea to warm herself up.
"Second sister!" Jiang Tao lifted the curtain and walked in, stomped her feet on the thick carpet, "Wow, you are really warm here, it's completely different from my broken tent that leaks the air!"
"Where is your etiquette and upbringing?" Jiang E looked at her unhappily.
"I'm in a hurry to see you." Jiang Tao pounced beside Jiang E coquettishly, "Do you know, something big happened outside just now!"
Jiang E didn't seem to be interested and asked casually, "What?"
"The daughter of Zhenbeihou family, the eldest lady Xiao, who we had met before, actually killed a tiger with his own hands!" Jiang Tao exaggeratedly, "Do you know how big the tiger is? We are still big alone! Oh my God, she actually killed the tiger by himself... Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk
Jiang Tao narrated excitedly, her tone could not hide her gloating at this moment.
Jiang E also shook her head when she heard this, "It's really rude to do what these savage men do. I heard that the imperial concubine intended to make Madam Xiao the Princess of Qi. Now it seems that this Princess of Qi is probably the moon in the mirror."
"Princess Qi?" Jiang Tao's eyes flashed when she thought of something.
Jiang E saw through her thoughts at a glance, "Why, are you interested in Princess Qi?"
"Me? Why can't it be? Second sister, stop joking. I don't have the qualifications. That's Princess Qi!" Jiang Tao smiled half-truely.
Jiang E stabbed the knife but was not ruthless. "Just know that you are not qualified. Don't expect anything you shouldn't have. Instead, it will cause a lot of trouble to the Hou Mansion. Do you understand?"
Jiang Tao's face turned pale when she was warned by Jiang E.
She bit her lip and felt a little unwilling to accept it, and somehow she wandered around her eyes.
"That second sister, I met Princess Huayang just now and talked to her for a while."
When talking about Huayang, Jiang E's face changed slightly.
She uncomfortably pinched the teacup, "Princess Huayang? What do you have to say with her?"
"Of course I mean you, second sister. I also told the princess about your treasure, sister!"
Jiang E's face changed drastically, "Who asked you to say it!"
Jiang Tao seemed to be shocked, "I, second sister, you didn't tell me that you can't tell others."
"Do I still need to say this? Jiang Tao, you are too ignorant!" Jiang Tao scolded her mercilessly.
Jiang Tao seemed to be very aggrieved, "Second Sister, I'm doing it for your own good. Princess Huayang showed off some treasures in front of us, and she belittled her second sister in words. I don't want to lose your face, so I told you about the treasures. Who knew that Princess Huayang actually said she wanted to come and see with her own eyes, saying that she didn't believe that Sister Second Sister, you can get such a treasure!"
"You promised her to come and have a look?"
"There is no one else, it's just Princess Huayang. Second sister, think about it, Princess Huayang always looks down on you, you always have to get some face back for yourself. Now, it's time to change Princess Huayang to envy you, Second sister..."
Jiang E stopped talking.
Looking at her expression, she seemed to be shaken.
"Why would you like to ask Princess Huayang to come tomorrow?"
Jiang E made acquiesce.
