He didn't dare turn around to look at her, for fear of hurting her.

Ma Qingyi understood why he had been in a bad mood these past few days. It turned out that he was jealous of the dog!

Ma Qingyi walked up behind him and said, "How can a dog compare to you!" She turned Mo Yufeng around and said, "Because you gave me that dog, of course I have to... treat him better! It's like seeing you..."

Mo Yufeng's complexion finally recovered a little, but he still had a stern face and didn't say anything.

Ma Qingyi glanced at the food on the table, pulled his arm and said, "Okay, I'll eat with you!"

Then he pressed Mo Yufeng down on the chair like he had just done to himself, picked up the chopsticks and said, "Please!"

Mo Yufeng glanced at her smiling face and picked up the chopsticks. Ma Qingyi looked at him while biting the chopsticks.

After dinner

Ma Qingyi was about to leave when Mo Yufeng said behind her, "There's a hunting battle in the palace tomorrow. Come with me!"

"But I don't know how to...hunt!" Ma Qingyi said with some hesitation.

"Just look at it!" Mo Yufeng rolled his eyes.

Ma Qingyi forced a smile and nodded.

------

Imperial Palace

Mo Yufeng first took Ma Qingyi to the hunting ground. Ma Qingyi was stunned when she saw the vast grassland.

Oh my god, I really want to roll around here!

This was a hillside. They stood on the top of the hill. Ma Qingyi closed her eyes and opened her arms. The wind blowing from the bottom blew her long hair. The wind was warm and comfortable.

Ma Qingyi suddenly opened her eyes and said, "It feels so good! Are you going to hunt here?"

Mo Yufeng nodded, reached out his hand to brush away her hair that was blown by the wind and was a little messy on her face, his eyes full of tenderness.

Ma Qingyi smiled, turned around, continued to enjoy the wind, and hummed a little tune.

Suddenly, a voice came from behind, "Dai Yi greets the prince and princess!"

Ma Qingyi turned to look at him, he looked familiar...

Mo Yufeng turned his head and looked at him calmly without much expression on his face.

"I am Dai Yi, the crown prince of Dai. I was about to leave yesterday, but I heard there was a hunting competition today. We Dai people are the best at hunting, so I thought I'd come and take a look. I wonder if Your Highness will also be participating in this competition?"

"Well, it's rare to have time to come out, so it's good to move around!" Mo Yufeng said lightly.

Ma Qingyi had been silent behind him, and suddenly Dai Yi looked at her and said, "The princess is much quieter than I thought!"

Ma Qingyi looked at him, a little stunned. "Actually, I..."

"The princess doesn't like talking to strangers. In fact... she is very dishonest!" Mo Yufeng glanced at her and an incomprehensible smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Ma Qingyi glanced at him and asked, "Why am I not honest?"

Mo Yufeng put his arm around her shoulders and looked at her with a smile.

Dai Yi took a look, then bowed and said, "Then I'll leave first, see you later!"

Mo Yufeng nodded.

Ma Qingyi pushed his hand away, "Who's being dishonest?"

Mo Yufeng poked her face with a smile, "You are very honest!"

Ma Qingyi touched her face. Why did she like poking her face so much?

Not long after, the hunting competition began.

Mo Yecheng, Mo Yufeng, Bai Lishen, some ministers' sons, and children of famous families gathered on the top of the mountain on horseback.

Mo Yecheng pulled the reins and said, "Today, there's no distinction between you and me. Just be happy. The time is two hours. Gather here in two hours. Whoever catches the most prey will win!"

"Okay, I haven't moved for a long time!" Bai Lishen smiled.

"Why isn't Yufeng speaking?" Mo Yecheng asked.

"I heard that Prince Fu Qing is brave and good at fighting at such a young age, so hunting is definitely no problem for him!"

Mo Yufeng still didn't speak.

Bai Lishen leaned close to his ear and said, "Hey, you're not worried about Ma Qingyi, are you? Don't worry, she's with Han Xiao, don't worry. If you lose this hunt today, you'll lose face. So many people are watching you, so you'd better focus on the competition!"

Mo Yufeng said coldly, "Let's start!"

At the command, all the horses rushed down, raising a cloud of dust. This was not just an ordinary hunt, but also a silent fight!

Ma Qingyi was sitting on a stone bench in the imperial garden. Bai Hanxiao was originally with her, but suddenly she had to go back to get a pendant, leaving Ma Qingyi alone sitting on the stone bench. She had to wait for two hours before the end. If she had known, she would not have come. She was also threatened not to leave. If she left, she would have to send the puppy away. Enough is enough. Is she still angry with the puppy!

Ma Qingyi took a sip of tea and saw another person in front of her. She thought it was Bai Hanxiao who had returned and started to complain, "Why did you come back just now? They were supposed to compete for two hours. Do you want me to wait that long too?"

Ma Qingyi waited for a while and found that neither of them moved nor spoke. She raised her head and saw that it was the prince of Dai, whose name was... Dai Yi!

Shouldn't he be in the hunting grounds? Why is he here? This is the imperial garden of the harem!

Dai Yi bent down and said, "Princess!"

"...Don't be so polite!" Ma Qingyi nodded and said.

Seeing that he didn't say anything and was looking at her with a smile, Ma Qingyi smiled awkwardly, "Aren't you in the hunting ground? Why are you here? You are not allowed here!"

Dai Yili smiled politely, "Sure enough, what the princess and Prince Fu Qing said is the same!"

Same thing! What did you say... Oh, is that dishonest guy here just to mock me?

Dai Yi smiled and said, "I just heard from the maid in the palace that you were here, so I wanted to come over to look for you, and sure enough, I found you!"

Ma Qingyi didn't quite understand "What do you want me to do?"

Dai Yi smiled and said, "Princess, don't be afraid. I came to see you because I think you look like an old friend of mine!"

Ma Qingyi jokingly said, "My old friend is also from Dai, so how can I look like someone from Dai?"

"No, she is indeed not from Dai country, but from Mo Yu country!" Dai Yi said seriously.

"So...what's her name?" Ma Qingyi asked curiously, because when she saw him for the first time, she felt as if she had known him for a long time!

"...I don't know, we were very young! We separated so quickly!" Dai Yi said with some sadness.

It seems like that person is very important to him!

"Didn't it leave any traces? For example... traces of her, or... her features." Ma Qingyi seemed a little positive. Dai Yi looked at her with a smile in his eyes. "You are still the same as before!"

Ma Qingyi was a little confused.

"You really don't remember me? The little boy in the theater?" Dai Yi said with a smile.

Ma Qingyi's thoughts seemed to have returned to the theater of her youth...

"Daddy, I don't want to go back. Can you please stay and watch for a while longer..." Ma Qingyi cried and didn't want to go back, pulling Ma Xiong's clothes.

Ma Xiong looked at her helplessly and tried to coax her, "Be good, I'll bring you here next time!"

"No, no..." Ma Qingyi shook her head like a rattle, and suddenly a candy man appeared in front of Ma Qingyi.

Ma Qingyi took it and turned to look over. It was a handsome man, but his clothes were different from Mo Yuguo's!
