Chapter 34 Inexplicable

Chapter 34 Inexplicable
In Li Yuanhui's view, the first day of autumn hunting was a military exercise, but starting from the second day, it was like a sports competition.

The left and right armies dispatched tens of thousands of cavalry to drive away the enemy and encircle the prey. The clan members, noble relatives, and children of aristocratic families in Luoyang brought guards and hunting dogs to chase the prey.

Li Yuanhui actually had little interest in hunting, but in those days, not to mention the Xianbei nobles who started out as riders and archers, even the young men from Han families were full of martial spirit and were skilled in bows and horses.

The second brother, who was holding his breath, was the most handsome guy in the crowd. He rode his horse, shooting with bows left and right, and never missed his target.

Lao Liu is a warrior from the border area of ​​Youzhou, and hunting is no problem for him. The two of them are neck and neck, showing their martial arts style.

Li Yuanhui rode his horse behind the two men, occasionally shooting an arrow. With the original owner's muscle memory and the training of the past few days, his accuracy was not bad, although not as good as his second brother and Lao Liu. But it was also acceptable, at least he did not embarrass himself.

As for the third brother Li Xuanqing, he was even more exaggerated than the second brother and Lao Liu. Holding a javelin, he pierced the neck of a wild boar weighing hundreds of pounds from dozens of steps away, killing it with one blow.

This strength and accuracy are truly astonishing. It is a complete manifestation of talent.

At noon, the Li brothers and some acquaintances from aristocratic families gathered by the Luo River, built a bonfire, and roasted the hunted prey directly.

Everyone sat on the ground. Because they were on an ancient battlefield, they naturally talked about the Battle of Yique, and from the Battle of Yique they talked about the Battle of Changping, and from the Battle of Changping they talked about the Qin Dynasty's conquest of the six kingdoms, and finally they talked about the division of the Eastern Han Dynasty into three kingdoms and the endless wars.
Li Yuanhui suddenly found it a little funny. It turned out that no matter what generation, the topics that men liked to talk about most when they got together, besides women, were international politics and historical military affairs.

Among them, the Three Kingdoms is always a hot topic. In later generations, even an old man playing chess on the street can tell you the story of Kong Ming borrowing the east wind and Guan Yu killing six generals at five passes.

In this time and space, Zhuge Liang is still a role model who is highly respected, even without the glittering fans of the Jin Dynasty.

After Cao Wei conquered Shu, it still learned from Zhuge Liang's experience in military command and camp formation.

Today's Dayan is almost of the same lineage.

Among those present, many of them had ancestors who were famous officials and generals during the Three Kingdoms period.

Among them, the ancestor of Du Bing, a noble family in Jingzhao, was Du Yu and Du Wuku. Naturally, he was very proud when talking about the achievements of his ancestors.

A group of people were talking excitedly when suddenly a group of knights came galloping over from a distance, raising a cloud of dust, causing everyone to stand up and pick up their bows and arrows.

The horse galloped to a distance of about thirty steps and then stopped, because Li Er shot an arrow directly in front of the leading horse.

If the knight had not stopped suddenly and pulled the reins, the arrow would have hit the horse's forehead.

The leading knight was tall and strong, his red satin robe filling out. Seeing the other side shooting arrows as a warning, he was on high alert and did not dare to let his guard down.

He slowed down and stopped when he was about ten steps away, but he did not get off the horse. He sat on the horse and looked at everyone.

"Who shot the arrow just now?"

Li Erlang stood up and said, "Li Mingqi from the Longxi Li family."

"Li Erlang? Not bad, very brave."

The knight snorted coldly, and then the people on the riverside could see clearly that it was the imperial attendant Duan Wuda. He was also famous for his bravery among the children of the nobles in Luoyang, and he boasted of his extraordinary courage. He was also a close minister to the emperor, so he looked down on the children of the Han families on the riverside.

Today he originally wanted to give these people a warning and intimidate them, so he came here at a high speed, but he didn't expect that Li Er would actually dare to shoot an arrow.

"Same here. What brings you here on horseback?"

Li Er asked back directly, without any fear on his face.

Duan Wuda saw this scene and nodded: "Okay, you, Li Erlang, are a good man, but I am not here to see you today. Let Li Si come out to answer."

Li Er was stunned, "What do you want from my fourth brother?"

Duan Wuda said impatiently: "Of course there is something wrong, Li Si, come to my house."

Li Yuanhui in the crowd was very surprised. Looking for me?

He knew this person, but he had no social skills. What was he looking for? He looked aggressive, so it didn't seem like a good thing.
However, when the time comes, one cannot be afraid to retreat. Li Si immediately walked to the position next to his second brother and asked, "I wonder what advice Brother Duan has for you."

"Are you Li Si?" Duan Wuda actually had no impression of Li Si. He used to interact with Xianbei nobles and had very few interactions with Han families.

Although he might have seen him on some occasion, he had no impression of him. A few days ago, when the palace was conferring rewards, Li Yuanhui was at the end of the team. In front of him were a group of military generals, all of them tall and strong, so naturally he could not be seen.

He heard from his good friend, Wu Wang Murong Yang, when he was hunting today that Princess Jinyang was choosing a husband and had already seen the fourth son of Weiweiqing Li Yuan, that is, Yehou Li Yuanhui, who had made great contributions in the war to quell the rebellion. He immediately wanted to see who this boy was.

When he saw him, he was furious. He turned out to be a weak and frail pretty boy?
"I'm Li Si."

Li Yuanhui saw that the other party came with bad intentions and was obviously looking for trouble, so he lost his good tone and replied in a neutral tone.

"I thought the man who killed Yang Xun was a hero, but I didn't expect him to be so weak. I'm afraid it was a servant who shot Yang Xi. Are you claiming the credit?"

To be honest, Li Yuanhui had a pretty standard physique and was quite strong. He also practiced riding, archery, and spearmanship on a daily basis, so he was by no means frail.

But compared with Duan Wuda, who was as strong as a bear, he seemed really weak.

When Li Yuanhui heard this, he immediately got angry: "I shot and killed Yang Xi in the midst of thousands of soldiers, and everyone saw it with their own eyes. The saint also gave me a reward. You said I took credit for it. Are you trying to say that the saint didn't know how to judge people?"

Duan Wuda, who was riding on a horse, was choked by Li Yuanhui's words. Yes, his military exploits were among thousands of troops, so it couldn't be fake. And since the merits have been determined, whether they are fake or real, they are also real.

Otherwise, it would be a slap in the face of the saint.

Duan Wuda was choking, and Li Yuanhui continued to ask: "Brother Duan, you said that I am weak, but I have made some achievements in suppressing the rebellion. I wonder what contributions you, as a strong man, can make for Dayan?"

"you"

Although Duan Wuda was brave and had never been defeated in a sparring match, he had been serving as a guard in the palace since he entered the officialdom. Later, because of his father's relationship, he was promoted to Palace Attendant and became a close minister to the emperor. However, despite his noble title, he had no achievements to speak of.

In the past, he could act arrogant in front of the Han children, but today he was really defeated by Li Yuanhui.

He is so fierce, what military exploits did he accomplish? No way? No way? Nothing?

What's your dog's name?
Although Li Laosi has always adhered to the principle of keeping a low profile, thinking about developing quietly and avoiding things as much as possible, why should he hide when something like this comes directly at him?
Just confront him directly.

Duan Wuda was speechless after being refuted, his face flushed, and he glared at Li Yuanhui. Finally, he glared at him fiercely and said, "Remember this."

Then he turned his horse around and left.

Li Yuanhui was confused by Wu Da's words. He left now? What are you doing here, buddy?
Li Er was also confused and asked, "Silang, what grudge do you have against him?"

Li Yuanhui shook his head. "There was no social interaction before, let alone any festivals."

The two brothers were puzzled. Li Xuanqing, who had been holding the short spear in his hand, said, "Beauty is a disaster."

"what?"

Li Yuanhui was even more confused. His third brother's logic made sense. If a man had no connection with another man and couldn't stand each other, it could only be because of interests.

This benefit may include many things, power, wealth, and women.

In terms of power and position, Duan Wuda was already a Palace Attendant at a young age. As a Xianbei noble, his future was limitless, so he would not be jealous of Li Yuanhui for this.

Wealth is even more non-existent. How could powerful people be short of money?

That leaves only the third one, the woman.
Li Si was still confused here, and the noble children who were traveling with him had already started to surround him.

"Shiro, good job!"

"Yes, what Silang said just now is right. Wu Da usually shows off his power, but today Silang has really dampened his spirit. His words are like a knife."

"Shiro is right. This person is so rude."

The "encouragement" from the crowd made Li Siren numb. You guys are happy to hear it, but looking at this situation, this matter will definitely be spread out, and I will completely offend people.
