745: Lord Huai Won

Lord Huai Won

The King nodded slightly.0

Because of the Queen, the King had not been holding a grudge towards Zhou Huaijin like before any more. He was, after all, his own son and he should not live a bad life no matter what, but he also expected that he could only be treated like a normal imperial lord.

Lord Huai had been spoiled since little, and he had not been very rational when it came to a lot of things. He was not a very skilled person, and he won the Spring Hunt every year by depending on others. However, it was already excellent of him to get a wild boar for the Spring Hunt this year.

A wild boar was also a ferocious thing after all, though it was not as ferocious as a tiger.

Gu Yunhe had been smirking next to them. Then people who carried the thing started to emerge from the woods.

Zhou Huailing and Gu Yunhe took a step forward and came to the middle section of the pitch.

As the crowd started to get closer…

Zhou Huailing's expression started to get more and more complicated. The crowd did not seem to be carrying a wild boar.

Zhou Huailing had even thought that he had not seen it clearly, so he patted Gu Yunhe and asked, "What are they carrying? Is it a wild boar?"

Gu Yunhe got dumbfounded too.

No, it did not seem like it. That was not what a wild boar was like. That animal seemed really long.

Gu Yunhe shook his head slightly. "It doesn't look like it."

At this moment, the other people on site also saw what was being carried. General Liu became extremely excited, as he ran forward and pointed at the thing that was carried to the site. "That is… that is an enormous serpent!"

What?

Zhou Huailing just could not believe what he had heard. He took a few steps forward, trying to catch a clear glimpse of what was there.

When he heard what General Liu said, he seemed to believe that it was something like that, but how could that thing be so big?

The serpent was carried all the way to the pitch.

Zhou Huailing was so dumbfounded that his expression became twisted. He had been laughing and saying that it was a wild boar, but what was placed in front of him was an enormous serpent that had not been seen in hundreds of years. It made him feel so terrible.

Especially when the black enormous serpent was placed next to the two tigers, the two tigers looked so small, not at all as powerful-looking as they had been a while ago.

Although Min Qing and Chu Yu were only there to help carry the thing. They could not help but show an expression of pride on their faces.

General Liu asked excitedly, "Lord Huai, what is this?"

"That is an enormous serpent Chaoyan and I ran into when we went deep into the woods. The serpent was large and thick, and it moved quite quickly as well. We could have escaped from it, but the serpent had apparently become possessed, and it would one day be harmful for the locals, so I decided to kill it," Zhou Huaijin said relaxedly as if it were a tiny thing.

General Liu looked at him in admiration. "Excellent!"

Zhou Huaijin smiled.

As he came to Zhou Huailing he asked with a slight smile on his face. "What do you think, Fourth Brother, do you think you won the contest or I did?"

Zhou Huailing had a terrible look on his face. However, before he was able to say anything, General Liu said loudly and firmly, "Lord Huai won the contest!"

Zhou Huailing had a worse look on his face by this point.

He glared at Gu Yunhe and snapped. "What nonsense did you talk about just now! Did you see the wild boar Eighth Brother got for you to be so sure about it?"

Gu Yunhe did not dare to counter him. Instead, he was standing silently next to them.

Zhou Huaijin showed a small smile and walked towards the King with a box in hands.

The King was looking very pale too. The moment he saw the serpent, he got frightened too. "Go back to the court! That is all for the Spring Hunt!"

"Father!" Zhou Huaijin called out.
