After rushing all the way, they arrived at Mount Li's enclosure.
Rest for the night.
The next morning.
Li Shimin sat on the dragon throne built on Mount Li. The concubines he brought with him sat on his left and right. The officials and princes stood on his left and right below him.
"The hunt at Mount Li will last for half a month.”
Li Shi Min, who was sitting on the dragon throne, said in a deep voice,"Princes and ministers can participate. We will reward them according to the number of wild beasts killed.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the officials did not have much of a reaction.
This hunt was more for Li Shiming to play and test the riding and archery skills of the princes.
Even if he could kill more than Li Shiming and Prince, he wouldn't have the guts to do so.
However, Li Chengqian, Li Tai, Li Ke, and the other princes who wanted to fight for the position of the Emperor became particularly interested.
Li Chengqian's eyes revealed a fierce light as he lowered his head and swept his gaze across his younger brothers behind him.
My mother is the current empress.
Father dotes on me the most.
Do you think you're worthy of stealing my limelight?
Li Tai and Li Ke felt Li Chengqian's gaze and glared back without showing any weakness.
Only Ming Li watched them fight lazily, feeling amused in his heart.
What was there to fight for the position of Crown Prince?
If you really want to be the emperor, you can also make a change in the Black Tortoise Sect.
It was not good to let Li Shi Min be a living Retired Emperor like his father.
Li Ming did not have any thoughts of fighting for the position of Crown Prince. Being an emperor was not as fun as being in the harem.
When I make a cuckold out of Li Shi Min's wife, no matter who becomes the Crown Prince or the Emperor, I will be the Retired Emperor!
At this moment, several people from the Thousand Bull Guard walked out, carrying two wooden cages.
From afar, one could see a few deer that looked panicked inside the wooden cage.
Not long after, the Thousand Bull Guards brought the wooden cage to a distance of 100 meters from Li Shiming and opened the door.
When the deer in the cage saw the cage door open, it seemed to have found hope in life and jumped out.
Li Shi Min stood up from the dragon throne and held the big bow beside him in his hand. He bent the bow and aimed at the deer that had rushed out of the cage.
The first prey they hunted had to be the emperor.
It was also a good sign that he was number one in the world!
Swoosh!
Li Shi Min released the bowstring and shot out a sharp arrow, piercing into the stomach of a deer and injuring it.
Before he took the throne, he commanded the God's Will Army. His martial arts skills were not to be underestimated.
When the officials saw this, they understood that the opportunity to flatter had come, and they all spoke up.
"Your Majesty is extraordinary and heroic!”
"His Majesty is a man of valor and strategy, skilled in both civil and martial arts.”
"When you draw your bow and nocked your arrow, Your Majesty has an invincible might.”
"Your Majesty…"
The praise from the officials made everyone feel as if Li Shiming had killed a deer with a single arrow.
"Hahaha! It's just a deer. Even if it's a ferocious tiger, I can kill it with an arrow.”
Li Shi Min laughed proudly.
At this moment, everyone seemed to have forgotten that his arrow did not even kill a deer.
Immediately after, Li Shiming shot three arrows at the deer. His expression didn't change, and he was still proud.
When Empress Zhangsun saw this, a trace of uneasiness flashed in her eyes. She reminded him in a low voice,""Your Majesty, remember not to boast too much. This is a great taboo for a ruler.”
When Li Shiming heard this, he felt like someone had poured a bucket of cold water on him.
Immediately, he was displeased and shouted,"This one is confident, how is this boasting? I have developed the weak Great Tang into the current overlord. Who would dare to disobey?”
When the princes and officials heard this, they immediately guessed that Empress Zhangsun must have said something.
Then, she lowered her head and looked at her chest, pretending that she had not heard anything.
Empress Zhangsun looked at the prince and the ministers and felt a little uncomfortable, but she had no choice but to lower her head and say,""I understand!"
Li Shi Min felt that Empress Zhangsun had disrupted his happy mood, so he ignored her and said to the Thousand Bull Guard under the dragon throne,""Wash and skin the deer that zhen shot. Zhen wants to personally roast it for the ministers to taste.”
Li Ming looked at Li Shiming with disdain.
Empress Zhangsun's kind reminder was nothing in his eyes?
Honest advice was unpleasant to the ear!
While Li Ming was thinking, the Thousand Bull Guards carried the washed and peeled prey to Li Shi Min.
Li Shimin said that he would personally roast the venison, which was already cooked, with his own hands.
After all, he didn't know how to cook.
Just as Li Shi Min was about to distribute the venison to each of the officials, the sharp cry of an eagle came from the sky.
Everyone looked up and saw an eagle, like a black lightning bolt, swooping down towards Li Shi Min.
