The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 273

[Chapter 273 Impure Intentions]

After hearing his words, Lin Tian pulled the corner of his mouth calmly.

Sure enough, the tail of this old fox was exposed. He had been silent before, and it turned out that he had set his sights on this.

Hunting?

It sounds good.

But we don’t know whether the final prey will be him or those wild beasts?

“I think this proposal is very good, please approve it, Your Majesty.”

Lin Tian also said to the emperor.

His reaction made Liu Zhang stunned for a moment, and he looked at Lin Tian with a little disbelief.

He thought Lin Tian was a smart person. He had designed Lin Tian to bypass him many times before, so today’s situation happened.

But Lin Tian cooperated with him so foolishly that Liu Zhang doubted his judgment for a while.

“Since Lord Lin has agreed, and Da Chu has not held a hunting meeting in recent years, let’s take the opportunity to catch a few wild rabbits today!”

Emperor Zhengde waved his hand and agreed directly.

His straightforwardness still surprised Lin Tian.

He thought the emperor would reject this proposal. After all, it was already late. If he didn’t hurry, it would be dark before he could get back to the palace.

“Why not let everyone in the entourage participate? It’s better to share happiness with others than to enjoy it alone!”

Liu Zhang proposed again.

He did this to make his actions look more reasonable.

“Prime Minister Liu, this is a good idea! It’s approved! Whoever kills the most prey will be rewarded!”

The Zhengde Emperor was even more delighted when he heard it, and he approved it with a wave of his hand.

Lin Tian looked at the Zhengde Emperor with some surprise, but he soon guessed his intention.

It must be said that the Zhengde Emperor was racking his brains over the drought in the Central Plains, including today’s ceremony of offering sacrifices to the heavens and praying for rain, which was also for blessing.

And what Liu Zhang said about hunting and praying for blessings also touched Zhengde’s heart, so he would naturally agree to it readily.

Moreover, the Zhengde Emperor had already guessed that Liu Zhang was going to take action, which was also a chance for him.

“Your Highness obeys your order!”

Lin Tian got off the horse, knelt on the ground and slowly bowed to the Zhengde Emperor.

The emperor nodded slightly.

He looked far into the dense forest on the other side, and then looked around at the people he brought with him. He knew

what was hidden in these people’s hearts. If he didn’t let them act, he didn’t know what kind of trouble they would cause when they returned to the capital.

Moreover, he also wanted to know what Lin Tian was capable of.

He could indeed see Lin Tian’s talent, but if he was asked to assist the new king of Da Chu, he was afraid that he was still a little immature.

He needed to consider Lin Tian’s ability and see if Lin Tian was worthy of this honor.

So he still had a lot of thoughts in his mind.

“I haven’t held a hunting meeting for many years. I’m not feeling well today, so I won’t get involved! It’s limited to two hours, everyone go!”

Those who were willing to participate stood in a line. When Emperor Zhengde saw that everyone was in high spirits, he was in a good mood.

He had been suffocated in the palace for these years. Today, he held a small hunting meeting under the name of offering sacrifices to the sky and praying for rain, which was also a way to relax!

After he gave such an order, those people were like wild horses that had broken free from their reins. They were more active just for the promise of a huge reward from Emperor Zhengde.

Lin Tian picked a wider road at random and rode his horse into it alone.

But after he walked for a while, he found that Liu Zhang had followed him from behind!

“What a coincidence, Minister Lin, I didn’t expect to meet you here!”

Liu Zhang laughed and shamelessly rode with Lin Tian.

But Lin Tian was disgusted. He didn’t expect that this man was like a dog-skin plaster and couldn’t be shaken off. There

were too many things that could happen in two hours, so he was careful to avoid Liu Zhang from the beginning.

Unexpectedly, Liu Zhang still followed him. How did he find out the route he was traveling?

Lin Tian was a little confused, but he still hid it in his heart.

“I didn’t expect that Prime Minister Liu also chose this road. It’s really a fate!”

Since the other party wanted to play a trick on him, Lin Tian naturally responded with a fake smile.

Liu Zhang was like a punch on cotton, and his face was a little stiff.

“Minister Lin is a martial arts expert, how come he didn’t catch any prey?”

He didn’t know what to say for a moment, so he could only laugh dryly and walked with Lin Tian for a while.

But he found that Lin Tian was not interested in the pheasants on the roadside at all, and walked aimlessly as if he was taking a walk.

Seeing that Lin Tian was about to go out of his control, Liu Zhang couldn’t help but feel a little anxious.

He found that Lin Tian was really hard to figure out!

This person was as cunning as a loach, and he didn’t act according to common sense at all.

“These animals are just to store food for the winter. They don’t have much meat on them. It would be a waste to catch them, not to mention that they are also lives!”

Lin Tian said carelessly.

He said that his love was boundless, but he knew in his heart that he was just talking nonsense.

But Lin Tian’s casual words made Liu Zhang angry.

No wonder Su Lin was defeated in just a few rounds in front of Lin Tian. This man’s tongue skills are really powerful. He must be used to verbal disputes.

“They are just some beasts. In this world, the saints are kings and the losers are bandits. The law of the jungle preys on the weak. Don’t you understand that Minister Lin doesn’t understand it?”

Liu Zhang swallowed his breath and said meaningfully.

What he said was quite meaningful, but Lin Tian just smiled faintly as if he didn’t understand the meaning of his words.

The sunlight sprinkled on Lin Tian through the gaps between the branches and leaves. He slightly raised his head and looked forward, with a barely perceptible smile on his side.

This is a bit hard to understand.

“But I guess Liu Xiang is not a person who eats anything when hungry. These pheasants and rabbits are small and have no attack power. They really cannot reflect Liu Xiang’s ability!”

Lin Tian said again, but his eyes did not look at Liu Zhang, but stared straight at a direction in front of him.

Liu Zhang was so angry that his nose was almost crooked after hearing Lin Tian’s words.

He automatically thought that Lin Tian was mocking him!

Being hungry and not being able to choose food is probably a mockery of him for winning over officials in the court to his own camp regardless of their status.

And at this time, he deliberately emphasized the word “ability” to mock him for being old!

“It’s just some lip service. I will make you look good later!”

Liu Zhang deliberately lagged behind Lin Tian by a few steps, muttering in a low voice with gritted teeth.

His words dissipated in the wind and did not reach Lin Tian’s ears.

But Lin Tian knew that if he provoked him a few more times, Liu Zhang would lose his temper!
