Chapter 211 A Gentle Evening (1)

His eyes swept over Shi Jianli and Ming Yuelin from time to time. Ming Zhouhe stood outside the field with his arms around each other, chatting casually with Ming Zhouqing.

There was a conflict on the field. Jian Shi Jianli seemed to be targeted. She glanced at the fifth princess Zhou Peiyi and her companion, and a hint of coldness flashed across Ming Zhouhe's eyes.

Princess Corning said something, and the conflict on the scene soon subsided.

Mingzhu and Anxin watched the game.

Shi Jianli and Mingyuelin played steadily, but Lin Tingwan played quite aggressively.

Ming Yuelin's eyes always lit up when he met someone he could play with. Ming Zhouhe glanced at the latter and thought that she would be dragged into playing polo with Ming Yuelin many times in the future.

The ball flew into the net again, but bounced back into the court due to excessive force.

Ming Zhouqing beside him said, "This Miss Lin is incredibly strong. She's worthy of being the sister of the strongman Lin Tingshen."

Ming Zhouhe nodded in agreement, and when the game was almost over, he waved to Xuan Yuan who was not far away.

Xuan Yuan stepped forward and clasped his fists: "Young Master."

Ming Zhouhe nodded, "The tea is ready, and the girls will be out soon."

"Yes." Xuanyuan responded and went to do his work.

The game was about to end, and the last ball was passed to Lin Tingwan. Lin Tingwan gripped the club tightly, his arms tensed, and with a forceful push of his hand, he hit the ball.

The ball flew out, brushed the net, flew over the fence, and flew straight towards the spectators watching outside.

Ming Zhouhe and Ming Zhouqing were standing at the edge of the net, right in the direction where the ball was flying.

Looking at the ball flying towards his face, Ming Zhouhe put down his arms, raised his right hand, caught the ball firmly, and tilted his palm slightly backward.

He glanced over indifferently, his eyes fixed on Lin Tingwan who was swinging the club.

The distance was quite far, and it was still very strong when it flew here and was caught by him.

Ming Zhou and Ming Zhouqing beside him glanced at the others who had already fled and clapped their hands, "Third brother, you caught it very accurately."

Ming Zhouhe said "hmm" and shook the ball in his hand.

The referee on the other side of the court shouted, "Time's up! Twenty-three to seven, the winner is the Corning Princess team!"

Even if Lin Tingwan missed the last shot, it would not affect the already one-sided situation at all.

Lin Tingwan's eyes found the ball that Ming Zhouhe had caught, and when he met his gaze, he curled his lips and said silently, "Sorry."

Ming Zhou raised his eyebrows slightly and threw the ball to the caddy who came over to take it.

Due to their upbringing, Ming Zhou and He did not really look at each other carefully. But after a closer look, she was a bright and beautiful girl.

Just as they saw Li and Mingyuelin coming out, Mingzhou and Mingzhouqing went over to greet them.

But it was obvious that the two people with the title of "fiancé" were faster, and the two brothers could only stand by and watch them talk.

Ming Zhouhe withdrew his gaze and looked in the direction of the Fifth Princess.

After Shi Jianli went to change clothes, Ming Zhouhe walked to Ming Zhaohuan and said, "Big brother."

"Hmm?" Mingzhao took his eyes off Shi Jianli's back and responded to him.

Glancing at the person beside him, Ming Zhouhe lowered his voice and said, "The Fifth Princess is quite hostile to my cousin."

"I know. Cousin Li mentioned it to me. I have already informed the stables and the Imperial Guards." Mingzhao just didn't expect that the Fifth Princess didn't attack Shi Jianli secretly, but wanted to frame her openly.

Mingzhao said so, so Mingzhouhe could only temporarily put aside his inexplicable worries.

The next day, Ming Zhouhe shot his last arrow in the woods. He left the hunting grounds and asked the Yulin Guards to go in and count his prey.

He hit the target with every arrow today, so his ranking should not be bad.

As soon as they left the forest, they saw no one else from the Anguo Mansion. Only Xuanyun was waiting outside. Ming Zhou and his heart were startled, and his brows unconsciously furrowed. "What happened?"

Xuanyun glanced at his master in surprise. "Something happened to Miss Li and Princess Kangning. Miss Li was carried out of the forest by the prince. She was covered in blood. The imperial physician treated Miss Li, but fortunately no vital injuries were sustained. She is still in a coma."

"Princess Kangning was also carried out by Prince Yu. There was no blood on her body, but Prince Yu looked very pale."

"The Fifth Princess was escorted out of the hunting forest by the Imperial Guards... The Crown Prince is now in the imperial tent."

Ming Zhou clenched his fingers into fists, his face looking somewhat gloomy.

He walked towards the tent of Duke Anguo's mansion, and Xuanyun hurried to follow him.

Lin Tingwan also came out of the woods at this time and handed the bow and arrow to the maid.

I looked up and saw Ming Zhouhe walking past me. He didn't look very happy. I glanced at the people around me and felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange.

Seeing Ming Weisu, Ming Weishen, and the others standing outside the same tent, waiting silently with their hands behind their backs, Ming Zhouhe stepped forward and asked, "Father, Uncle, how long has my eldest brother been gone?"

"It's been a while." Ming Weishen replied. Seeing the worry on his face, he added, "If you want to know the details, your eldest brother must come back. We are also confused."

Ming Zhou and Wu Nai could only calm down and wait for the result.

The next day, Ming Zhouhe had the chance to see Shi Jianli. Seeing her pale and weak face, he sighed silently in his heart.

He and his mother had worked so hard to keep him healthy for a few years, but now he is losing energy and blood.

After returning to the Anguo Mansion, Qiao Ruoying devoted herself to Shi Jianli's health for the first half month, and the plan to meet her before the autumn hunt was put on hold again.

Ming Zhou and Rang Xuanyuan counted the good things that had been sent to his courtyard before and piled them all at Shi Jianli's place.

Shi Jianli looked at him with a hint of resentment, "Cousin, if you can't finish it, take some back."

"Eat slowly. We'll talk about it later if you can't finish it." Ming Zhouhe turned around and left her yard.

At the end of October, it was about to snow. Mingyue was afraid that Shijianli would be bored because she had never left the yard, so she took her out for a walk.

The so-called relaxation was to let her watch them playing chow and drink a few sips of the cool northwest wind.

Ming Zhou, who never spoiled the fun of his sisters, agreed to play football for half a day. This allowed him to play with one sister and also perform for another.

Ming Zhou and Lin Tingwan were not too surprised when they saw each other. Since they got along well, how could Ming Yuelin let go of Lin Tingwan, a playmate who could play with her?

Lin Tingwan has always preferred a fierce and aggressive style of play. This style completely aroused Mingyuelin and Princess Kangning's desire to win, and the fight for the ball was very intense.

If you hit hard, the ball will often go out of bounds, and Ming Zhou and others will have to chase it back.

After a few times, I figured out the direction and strength of Lin Tingwan's hits, and in the end I was able to chase the ball with ease. When she went to grab the ball, I would go to the side and wait for her ball.

Seeing that the ball was rescued by Ming Zhouhe without falling to the ground, Lin Tingwan couldn't help but look at him a few more times.

After the game was over, when the servants went to pick up the balls, Ming Zhou and Ce Ma came to Lin Ting Wan's side and looked at her for a long time. "Miss Lin."

Lin Tingwan was in high spirits after scoring goals one after another. There was excitement in her eyes. When she heard Ming Zhouhe calling her, she turned around and said, "Huh?"

Their eyes met. Ming Zhouhe paused for a moment, then said in a leisurely, half-joking tone, "Miss Lin, can we have some tacit understanding? Can you hold back a little?"
