Your Majesty, Please Come In - Chapter 6

Ever since I was very ill, I have suffered from lethargy. I woke up every morning when the sun was three poles high (very late in the morning). After seeing many doctors, each and one of them all shook their heads and sighed. They can’t see anything wrong. Even if they see it, they can’t do anything about it. I can’t help but just let the matter go.

I summoned Xin Xing to dress and take care of me as I hurriedly ate my meal. I rushed to the imperial palace with Xin Xing and saw Feng Yin, Prince Yi and the others were all ready to go. They didn’t hide their impatience upon seeing my arrival, so I just laughed dryly. Someone turned over the horse that had been prepared for me for a long time, pulled Xin Xing and sat on the back of the horse. Then set off.

It was silent all the way.

Outside the forest, Feng Yi suggested with a smile, “Imperial brother, let’s compare and see who hunts more. If you win, Imperial brother will answer the winner’s wish. Imperial brother, what do you say?”

After Feng Yin heard this, he raised his eyebrows,”According to what Imperial brother Yi said, wouldn’t this Emperor be at a disadvantage?”

“No loss, no loss, if Imperial brother wins, then let Imperial uncle answer Imperial brother’s wish.” Feng Yi was good at tempting someone. But I just clicked my tongue while watching their word play. Why was I involved?

Feng Yin looked at me with squinting phoenix eyes for a long time, and my back shivered with chills. I wanted to dig a hole and stuff myself in it. He smirked and didn’t turn around in a hurry.

 “Ok.” He answered without hesitation.

Then, he took the lead and rushed into the woods on horseback…

It was so fast that I was taken aback, and my intuition told me that I should never lose! If Feng Yin wins, he won’t let me go and drag me to those Chu mansion men’s brothels again… I was petrified of that thought for a while!

So, the second person who rushed into the woods was me.

No one has ever hunted in this forest. Naturally, the number of birds and beasts was far greater than that of the hunting grounds.

I drew my bow to aim at a rabbit in the grass, and when I was about to release the arrow, a scream scared me, which made me throw the bow and arrow from my hands.

I pressed my forehead, looked back helplessly and raised my eyebrow, “Xiao Xing, what’s going on?”

“Master… Master, there is a snake!” Xin Xing, with big eyes open, pointed to the green snake on one side, terrified.

“The woods are inaccessible. It’s natural to have snakes. Don’t make a fuss,” I added. “If you don’t provoke it, it won’t attack you.”

Another rabbit

Aim, pull.

“Master! Snake!!”

“Xiao Xing…!” Glancing back, I saw a green snake climbing up to Xin Xing’s arm, flicking its tongue at him, which made him pale. But he was clearly holding a dead tree branch in his hand!

The green veins on my forehead throbbed suddenly. I grabbed the snake’s neck which made it unable to move. With a fierce force, I threw the snake out of the field of vision, and then looked at Xin Xing. It seemed that he was not hurt. When I turned back ahead, the rabbit I had been aiming at had long been gone.

“Master is so powerful!” Xin Xing smiled.

“Don’t tell me that the teacher I hired with so much money hasn’t taught you what it means to hit a snake with a stick!”

What I said was answered with silence in the rear.

The depths of the woods became more and more difficult to navigate, covered by weeds and branches everywhere. Xin Xing and I both dismounted, and when we were about to move forward, a low roar entered my ears making me startled, this roar was clearly that of a tiger! The alarm bells rang in my heart. When the horse heard the sound, it snorted from its nostrils, raised its head, neighed and ran away. Watching the back of the horse fleeing in a panic, it took me a long time to recover, the bow and arrow were all inside the horse’s back pocket……

I turned my head and stared angrily at the stunned Xin Xing, “Xiao Xing, how did you hold the horse rope and let it run away? How can you and I go back?”

The roar of the tiger was getting closer and closer, and the cracking sound of the tiger’s foot stepping on dead branches could be heard.

“I……” Xin Xing’s cheeks were flushed and choked on a word for a long time.

The approaching danger made me complain to Feng Yi in my heart. He said it’s bad where he originally proposed to go and that it’s better to come to such a remote mountain and old forest for hunting. Great. If we didn’t hunt here, We might as well let the big tiger hunt here instead.

Xin Xing was terrified at hearing the tiger’s roar, and his face was whiter than when he first saw the snake

As someone who has no sword, I would deal with the tiger with my bare hands. That’s absolutely right. But before the tiger come and tears us to pieces, the best strategy is to run away at once!

Thinking like this, I pulled the Xin Xing and ran. Naturally, the tiger followed not far away.

Running, I realized that there was no place to go, in front was a cliff, also, there was a fierce tiger in the rear. Xin Xing and I were in a dilemma.

A sharp arrow broke the wind from one side and went straight to the throat of the fierce tiger.

“Your Majesty, good archery!” I admired from the bottom of my heart. Feng Yin raised the corners of his mouth, unable to hide the slightest smugness, but…the strength was not enough. He only shot through the skin, and a few drops of blood were shed. Not good. The tiger, who was leisurely just now, was completely irritated, roared angrily, and rushed towards Feng Yin.

Seeing this, Feng Yin stepped on the horse’s back, looked and dodged. At this time, there were several shadow guards beside the tiger, but the tiger didn’t seem to be interested in them, and only ran after Feng Yin. With an arrow hanging from the tiger’s neck, it swayed and wobbled while running. The picture was rather funny.

The ropes that the shadow guards took out from nowhere were wrapped around the tiger’s limbs and neck. They all pulled the tiger back.The strength, however, appeared to be a bit less than that of the tiger…

Right now, the picture in my eyes was — Feng Yin running in front, the tiger chasing behind, and a few shadow guards being hauled by the tiger. I really want to make fun of you, Feng Yin, your appearance is really too much.  Even a tiger can’t hold itself back.

I reckon that I will be beheaded in front of the main gate of the imperial palace  if I really said this.

The tiger swooped and waved its paws at Feng Yin’s back. When I saw this, I stretched out my hand and pulled him. However, I had already reached the cliff’s brink. The pull was small, but who’d have realized the rocks beneath my feet were unstable? With this force, I threw myself down the cliff, dragging Feng Yin after me.

Today, my little fortune has been destined, and it has also towed along Feng Yin.

In a hurry, Xin Xing’s cry and roar came from the edge of the cliff, “His Majesty! Master!!”

…Was this call for the emperor or for the master?

There was a muffled sound. I was worried my bones were broken. I passed out before I could think about it.

On a bright day, the chirping birds were so annoying. When I thought back to that day, I had assumed I fell to my death on such a high cliff, but I was mistaken. Where did the sunshine, the birds chirping, and the soft pillow and mattress come from?

I was laying on a couch, my eyes squinted open, looking about. I was scared that every bone in my body was shattered. It didn’t follow directions and couldn’t make a single move. I also fell down a high cliff and was crushed beneath by Feng Yin. I’m very fortunate enough to still be alive.

However, I don’t know how Feng Yin’s injuries were.

If it’s worse…..Then I may just be torn into pieces.
