Chapter 356 Consort Fucha
Chapter 356 Consort Fucha
Those who did not witness Hongchang's military might firsthand,
It's inevitable to worry that Hongchang will suffer the same fate as the late emperor.
But today, everyone witnessed Hongchang's horsemanship and archery skills firsthand.
The doubts in my heart vanished instantly.
Their current emperor is different from the previous one.
After Hongchang shot down the head of the hunted animal, it was time for the others to show off their skills.
Encouraged by Hongchang, everyone was eager to try their hand at it.
A young Manchu bannerman was the first to rush out.
Holding a spear, he spurred his horse toward a running wild boar.
Upon seeing this, the wild boar let out an angry roar and turned to charge at him.
The Manchu bannermen were fearless; he gripped his spear tightly.
Leaning slightly forward, he precisely stabbed the wild boar in the throat.
The wild boar let out a miserable cry and collapsed to the ground, its blood staining the grass red.
The surrounding guards erupted in cheers, praising the bravery of this Manchu bannerman.
After dealing with the wild boar, the man unconsciously glanced at the dashing Princess Wenyi and her entourage not far away.
But he saw that the princesses were all chasing their own prey and hadn't noticed him at all.
He was slightly disappointed, but quickly rallied and continued searching for his next target.
He thought to himself, "I must show my skills today."
Let everyone see his bravery; perhaps he can even attract the attention of the princesses.
Generals such as Nian Gengyao, Fu Heng, and Yue Zhongqi also joined the hunting expedition.
They were all top military generals of the Qing Dynasty, renowned for their prowess on the battlefield.
Today, he is even more at home in this hunting ground.
Although Nian Gengyao was getting older, his prestige remained undiminished.
He held a longbow, his eyes gleaming, and aimed at a wild boar.
With a gentle pull of the bowstring, Nian Gengyao sent the arrow flying like a meteor, striking the wild boar squarely in the hind leg.
The wild boar let out a scream and tried to turn and attack.
But Nian Gengyao had anticipated this and quickly drew his curved sword from his waist.
He rode his horse around to the side of the wild boar and slashed at its waist with his sword.
The wild boar let out another piercing scream, collapsed to the ground, and could no longer move.
Fu Heng demonstrated his agility and flexibility.
He rode his steed with ease through the jungle and quickly spotted a deer.
With a flick of his wrist, he thrust his spear at the deer like a dragon emerging from the sea.
Before Lu could react, Fu Heng knocked her to the ground.
Everyone present today is quite capable, and even the guards who were driving the prey were in high spirits.
Drive more prey toward where the group is.
I wonder which reckless fool used too much force when driving the prey.
They actually drove a pack of wolves to the area where Fucha Peiyun, Nian Shilan, and Princess Shuhe were.
The wolves were cornered, their eyes gleaming with ferocity.
It emitted low, guttural roars, as if it were about to launch an attack at any moment.
This allowed the guards protecting Fucha Peiyun, Nian Shilan, and Princess Shuhe to...
I was so scared I almost peed my pants, and I was cursing under my breath.
If anything were to go wrong with these two empress dowagers and the princess, they would be held responsible to the death.
The guards immediately tensed up, quickly shielding their three masters in the middle, ready for battle.
Fortunately, the Empress Dowager and Princess Shuhe were frequent battlefield personnel that year.
Not that kind of weak woman
Their only concern was Empress Dowager Fucha, although she was quite skilled in horsemanship and archery.
But wolves are extremely cunning creatures, not ordinary prey.
One of the guards saw the opportunity and immediately went to request reinforcements from the main force.
I'm just afraid something might happen.
Unaware of the guards' abilities, Nian Shilan and Princess Shuhe were well aware of Fucha Peiyun's strength.
The strongest person present was Fucha Peiyun.
Therefore, Nian Shilan and Princess Shuhe were not flustered at all.
Even if Fucha Peiyun wasn't here, their years on the battlefield hadn't been for nothing.
