Chapter 118: Saving the Crazy Mistress in Sheep's Clothing
The next second, Wen Yang sat steadily on the horse.
Just as she was stunned, Ling Han turned over and got on the same horse with her. The man's broad chest pressed tightly against her back, so intimately that it seemed as if he was holding her whole body in his arms.
It was clearly her mission to conquer Ling Han, so why did she feel like she was the one being conquered?
Before Wen Yang could speak, Ling Han spoke first: "Your Highness has never tamed this horse, so it would be better if we rode together. That way, even if the horse goes crazy, I can help calm it down in time."
Such a legitimate reason made it impossible for Wen Yang to refuse.
Ling Han pulled the reins and rode the horse into the woods with Wen Yang.
It was almost dusk, so the light in the woods gradually dimmed.
Since the hunt has not officially started yet, the hunting grounds are currently filled with small animals that naturally inhabit the forest.
When they walked a little deeper into the forest, they actually encountered a few civet cats that were active at night and dormant during the day.
Ling Han's eyes were like an eagle's, instantly locking onto the prey that was looming in the grass. He slowly raised his longbow, pulled out an arrow from the quiver, and gently placed it on the string.
With a soft 'bang' sound from the bowstring, the arrow flew through the air with a 'whoosh' sound, heading straight for the prey in the grass.
As the arrow pierced into flesh with a hissing sound, time seemed to freeze at this moment. One of the civets in the grass was shot through without even making a sound.
The other civets seemed to be frightened by the danger and began to flee frantically.
"Gee!" Ling Han steered his horse while quickly taking out a few more arrows from the quiver and putting them on the string. He shot them quickly and accurately, and the civet cats that had just escaped were killed instantly.
"How amazing!" Wen Yang exclaimed.
"Your Highness, you are too kind." Ling Han handed the bow to Wen Yang, then dismounted and prepared to retrieve the prey. Unexpectedly, just as he approached the grass, a sharp sound of breaking through the air came from a high place next to him.
Ling Han rolled sideways and was not hit directly by the arrow, but this hidden arrow still grazed his left arm, and the shoulder of his red riding uniform was immediately stained a brighter red by the blood that seeped out.
"Ling Han!" Seeing Ling Han injured, Wen Yang exclaimed and immediately jumped off the horse.
"How are you? Are you okay?" Wen Yang asked anxiously.
When the hidden arrow was shot just now, there was no sound of horse hooves around. It can be seen that the person who shot the hidden arrow must have been lying in ambush nearby...
She came to Ling Han and squatted down. When she saw that Ling Han's scraped arm was still bleeding, her face suddenly turned cold. She actually knew who shot the arrow, but she didn't expect that person to be so eager to hurt others under her nose.
"Your Highness, I'm fine. No bones were broken. I just need a bandage. It's just that my performance might be affected during the official hunting tomorrow... I might not be able to bring honor to Your Highness..."
Wen Yang frowned slightly, "It's already this time, and you're still thinking about this! You don't have to worry about the hunt tomorrow. I'll take you back to bandage your wound now, and you should have a good rest." She supported Ling Han's uninjured arm and helped him up from the ground.
"Can you walk?" Wen Yang asked with concern.
Ling Han lowered his eyes and smiled, "Your Highness, I only injured my arm, my leg is fine."
Seeing the smile on Ling Han's lips, Wen Yang felt relieved.
She walked past Ling Han, went to the bushes, picked up the civet cats that had just been shot, and put them into the hunting bag on her horse. Then she turned back to Ling Han and said, "This can be considered a harvest. The sun is about to set, so let's go back first."
"it is good."
After Ling Han agreed, the two of them walked out of the woods, holding the horse reins.
Song Yizi, who was observing from afar in the dark, was so angry that he tied his horse to a tree as soon as he entered the woods. Then he dismounted and walked on foot to find a dense tree in the woods. He lay in ambush quietly on the tree, waiting for an opportunity to shoot and kill the guards around Wen Yang!
Unexpectedly, after waiting for a long time, he actually saw that the guard was riding the same horse with Wen Yang.
He was so angry at such an intimate act, but considering that Wen Yang was also riding on the same horse, he didn't dare to act rashly, otherwise he would hurt Wen Yang, and it would be difficult to justify the matter.
So he waited and waited, and finally waited until the guard dismounted alone.
Taking advantage of this gap, he immediately drew his bow, gathered his strength, and shot the arrow.
Unexpectedly, the guard dodged this swift arrow and only grazed his arm!
When he wanted to fire another arrow, there was no chance because Wen Yang had already rushed to the guard's side.
Song Yizhi could only stare at Wen Yang and Ling Han's departing backs with a sinister expression. After they were far away, he quietly descended from the tree...
......
When Wen Yang and Ling Han slowly walked out of the woods and returned to the tent, they found that Wen Fengye and Cao Ruyi had already returned.
Cao Ruyi looked at the horse led by Wen Yang, which was laden with a bulging hunting bag, and exclaimed, "You actually hunted a small animal! The Second Prince and I wandered around the forest for a long time without seeing any prey. Seeing that the sun was about to set, we returned."
"I thought tonight's barbecue was going to be canceled, but I didn't expect Ayang to actually hunt something." Wen Fengye said with a smile, but when he glanced at Ling Han, there was a hint of imperceptible coldness in his eyes.
Song Yizi actually failed?
"Second brother, I won't be leaving for a while. My guard is injured and I need to take him to treat his wound." Wen Yang said to Wen Fengye.
"Just leave the injured to the medical officer. Why don't you go? Do you want to take care of him yourself?" Wen Fengye asked in confusion.
Wen Yang nodded seriously, "Well, because he is very important to me, I have to guard him personally."
Ling Han, standing by, felt a slight wavering in his heart upon hearing these words. He had clearly been determined to use Wen Yang to the end, but now, upon hearing Wen Yang's words, his heart began to waver uncontrollably...
Wen Yang walked to the side of the horse and asked a palace servant to take the hunting bag off the horse. Then he turned to Wen Fengye and asked, "Second brother, the sun is almost setting. Hasn't General Song returned yet?"
As if he hadn't expected Wen Yang to actually take the initiative to care about Song Yizhi at this moment, Wen Fengye was slightly stunned before he replied: "Yizhi has martial arts skills, I think there shouldn't be anything that can hurt him in this forest, Ayang, don't worry..."
Upon hearing this, Wen Yang's lips curled up in a cold arc, "Really? That's great! I'm looking forward to competing with General Song during the official hunting tomorrow."
