Chapter 284 Duck hunting

The news of the arrest of the Wu brothers quickly spread throughout the capital. In the evening, Di Renjie also made a special trip, told Zhang Zong a lot of inside information about this matter, and also solved some of Zhang Zong’s doubts.

Just as Zhang Zong guessed before, the armor hidden by Wu Sansi was not framed by Li Hong, but he really hid it himself. However, Wu Sansi did not really want to rebel, but just liked to collect armor. In fact, this is not uncommon in the aristocratic circle. Many people have various collection habits, and there are also many people who like to collect armor. Some people even collect more armor than Wu Sansi.

Although this hobby is illegal, it is not a lawful person or a prosecutor, and no one cares at all. However, this time Li Hong caught the handle. Moreover, the charge Li Hong convicted Wu Sansi was the most serious intention to rebel. He is now being interrogated in Dali Temple. As long as the charge is settled, it is estimated that their brothers will be skinned even if they die.

Of course, convicting the Wu brothers is actually secondary. The important thing is to interrogate the behind-the-scenes planner, namely Ming Chongyan, from the Wu brothers. As long as they point out that Chongyan is proved, they can arrest Ming Chongyan in just right way. Then the two cases will be tried together, and no one will be left.

Although Zhang Zong was concerned about these things, he did not intend to interfere anymore. After all, there was no place for him to do the next thing, so it would be fine to leave it to others, and he didn't like to participate in these specific affairs very much.

The next morning, Xue Shao and his wife brought Xue Ning'er to Zhang Zong's house. They had already made an appointment yesterday and wanted to go out for a trip today. However, Xue Shao did not say where to go. Zhang Zong could go anywhere anyway, so he asked Xue Shao to arrange everything, so he took Wan'er and boarded the carriage.

"Brother Shi, how about we go out to hunt wild ducks outside the city today?" Xue Shao excitedly patted the bow and arrow beside him and said. Zhang Zong only then realized that there were several sets of bow and arrows on the carriage. It seemed that Xue Shao had already planned it.

"Okay, but I don't know how to shoot arrows." Zhang Zong nodded, but he really never shot arrows. He just saw others shooting a few times. Moreover, bows and arrows must be practiced, so he is afraid that he will make a fool of himself.

"Don't worry, brother Shi, there is a wild duck bay in the village of my sister-in-law's house. It is full of wild ducks. You can shoot randomly at that time!" Xue Ning'er next to her also smiled and said. Her hunting outfit today looked a little more heroic than usual. Her tight hunting outfit also outlined the beautiful curves of the girl and looked energetic.

"That's good, but if I can't hit the shot, don't laugh at me!" Zhang Zong laughed when he heard Ning'er's words.

"How could it be? If Brother Shi can't shoot arrows, I will teach you that with Brother Shi's intelligence, I will definitely be able to learn it once!" Xue Ning'er smiled again at this time.

Although Zhang Zong was surprised when he heard Ning'er wanted to teach him how to shoot archery, he did not refuse, but agreed with a smile. Then the few of them talked and laughed along the way, and soon the carriage left the city and then came to the manor outside the city where Changsun's house was.

Zhang Zong has been here before. When Changsun Yuanyi built a greenhouse, he also came here to guide them in the construction. At that time, the Changsun family had not yet come out of the downs and downs. It can be said that it was very shabby. Even the villa in the manor was a dilapidated scene.

Now a few years have passed. Although the technology of warming greenhouses has been spread, Changsun’s family has become the largest greenhouse base outside Chang’an City. Every winter, the vegetables produced here can supply almost half of the Chang’an City. After all, their greenhouses are large in scale, so the cost can naturally be reduced, and the quality of the vegetables they supply is also guaranteed, so many families have become fixed customers here.

However, the weather is hot now, and the business of greenhouses is not very good, so many greenhouses do not grow things. This is not because the tenants of Changsun’s family are lazy, but to raise land. After all, growing vegetables is very fertile, so in order to make the vegetables grow better in winter, the land must be fertilized and fallow in other seasons.

Soon the carriage entered the villa in the village. When Zhang Zong came here, the entire villa was only roughly repaired and could not even live in it. But now the villa has changed. Not only is it completely renewed, but there are also slaves waiting at the door.

After getting off the carriage, several people went to the villa for a rest. After all, the road outside the city was so bad, it was uncomfortable to get all the way. After drinking a pot of tea, several people came out of the villa with bows and arrows. Wild duck Bay is actually a river bay, but there are many wild ducks living here, so the name Wild duck Bay is given.

As soon as Zhang Zong and his friends approached the Wild Duck Bay, they heard the sound of ducks crying from the reeds in the water. When they approached, they saw wild ducks floating on the water everywhere on the river. The wild ducks were paddling leisurely and stretched their heads into the water from time to time to eat fish and shrimps. They were all fat and fat, and they did not look smaller than domestic ducks.

At that moment, Xue Shao asked someone to take the bow and arrow, and then each picked one. Zhang Zong didn't know how to take the bow and arrow, so in the end, Xue Ning'er picked one for him. He held it in his hand and tried it. It felt pretty good, at least it was not very difficult to pull it away.

Then Zhang Zong took another arrow, and then the four of them scattered and occupied a position. Zhang Zong pulled out the arrow and placed it on the bow, then slowly pulled the bow, and aimed at a wild duck on the river like others, and then suddenly let go of his fingers.

However, what Zhang Zong didn't expect was that the arrow in his hand did not shoot out, but slid off the bowstring, which caused the arrow to fall directly to the ground. This made him blush. He quickly looked around, but found that Xue Ning'er was covering her mouth and laughing secretly.

"Brother Shi, let me teach you!" Xue Ning'er was very generous, and then took the initiative to come forward and suggested again.

"This... well, then you will be Ning'er!" Zhang Zong hesitated and nodded. He still underestimated archery. He used to think that archery was nothing more than putting arrows on the bow and shooting them out, but when he really started, he realized that archery was not that easy, but a technical job, and it was really not easy to master without anyone's guidance.
