Just when the princes were only three feet away from the rockery cave, two people rushed out of the rockery in panic.
The two men bumped into the second prince who was running in front.
The three of them let out an "ouch" sound almost at the same time.
【No way, how did things turn out like this! 】
Xia Miaoyuan was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth.
The Queen and Xia Zhengqi had just arrived at the edge of the grove. The Emperor and the Queen stopped and heard the shouting coming from the rockery. They couldn't help but frowned, and then they exchanged glances.
The queen winked at Xia Zhengqi: Why don’t you take care of this matter quickly? What is going on?
Xia Zhengqi helplessly spread his hands towards the queen and made a helpless expression.
Xia Miaoyuan craned his neck and strained to look forward: [Is it Feng Shulai and that beautiful eunuch?]
The queen glanced at her daughter, pulled her and Xiao Wanyin over, stretched out her hands, and covered the eyes of the two little babies with one hand each.
"Little kids, don't look at things you shouldn't look at."
As soon as the queen finished speaking, a group of people turned around and walked out of the grove.
Xia Zhengqi and the Queen looked over and felt a chill in their hearts.
Xia Miaoyuan peeked out through the gaps between the queen's fingers and was also confused.
[Wow! No way, no way.]
I saw a middle-aged man in his 30s, wearing a sky-blue robe. Although he wore all the clothes and hats, each piece was worn very sloppily.
Especially on the lapel, there was a big red sweat towel hanging.
[Presumably, the person with the sweat towel hanging on his body is Feng Shulai.]
Looking next to Feng Shulai, there was a eunuch with delicate features and fair skin. The eunuch's collar was crooked, and two buttons were buttoned in the wrong place.
Behind the two of them was the second prince.
The second prince was seen walking slowly with his head down, one hand tightly covering his face, no longer having the energy and spirit he had just had when he went up the mountain to fight a tiger.
When Xia Miaoyuan and the other second princes got closer, they were shocked to find that there was a bruise on his face, probably from being hit just now.
The people behind were talking in low voices.
Some were beaming with joy and said, "No wonder he took the risk to steal. He really is a wonderful person."
Others said: "It's a pity that I couldn't see the exciting part."
When everyone walked out of the woods, they were shocked to see Xia Zhengqi and the Queen standing and looking at them. They were all frightened.
Prince Min chuckled and said, "Why did the Emperor and Empress leave the table?"
Xia Zhengqi's face was slightly embarrassed: "Nothing serious, I just came out to see what everyone was doing."
Xia Zhengqi: I didn't ask you, but you have the nerve to ask me first.
Before anyone could ask, Feng Shulai hurriedly explained, "I had just come out to change my clothes when I saw a rabbit running into the rockery. My childish nature still lingered, so I chased after it and tried to catch it."
"It just so happened that Eunuch Lin was passing by, so he kindly helped me catch him."
[Hahahaha! Catching rabbits! Feng Shulai, you really know how to pick up ready-made things.]
Xia Miaoyuan covered her mouth, and the corners of her mouth twitched as she tried to hold back her laughter.
[If someone uses the excuse of catching rabbits, you also say you're catching rabbits.]
"Yes, yes, yes. I just went to help Master Feng catch rabbits." Eunuch Lin said quickly.
"Father, we are also going to catch rabbits." The second prince said, covering his face.
"Your Majesty, we are too!"
"Yeah, we went to catch rabbits too."
"Ahem!" Xia Zhengqi pretended to clear his throat and suppressed his laughter.
"Oh, I see. It seems that everyone is very interested. What about the rabbit?" Xia Zhengqi said seriously.
Feng Shulai and Lin Neijian lowered their heads and whispered, "The rabbit ran too fast and we couldn't catch it."
Seeing this, others also said: "Yes, yes, the rabbit runs too fast."
"There is no rabbit!" Xiao Wanyin suddenly shouted.
"You're talking nonsense. Why didn't I see any rabbits?"
Everyone was shocked, and the queen quickly moved her hand from Xiao Wanyin's eyes to her mouth.
"Don't talk nonsense, kid. The rabbit ran too fast and you didn't see it." Old man Min Wang leaned over and said to her.
After saying that, he stood up and pointed at Feng Shulai and said, "Look at Master Feng. How embarrassed is he in trying to catch a rabbit?"
This finger happened to point at the handkerchief hanging on Feng Shulai's collar, and King Min immediately said righteously: "Oh, you chased the rabbit and even the handkerchief flew out."
"Tsk tsk tsk, it's really not easy."
Feng Shulai glanced down at the big red sweat towel on his body, his old face flushed instantly, and he quickly pulled the sweat towel off and stuffed it into his sleeve.
"Feng Shulai! You..."
Suddenly, an angry female voice came.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw that it was Jiang Shuyi and Feng Panpan, mother and daughter, and the Empress Dowager.
Three people came over at some point.
However, everyone's attention was on Feng Shulai and Lin Neijian, and no one noticed.
Jiang Shuyi and Feng Shulai have been married for many years. She has long known about her husband's habit of splitting up lovers and has also heard a little about his lover before marriage, a woman named Lin.
Unexpectedly, today I saw with my own eyes the embarrassing situation of Feng Shulai and the eunuch Lin in Shanglin Garden.
She immediately understood why her husband had made an excuse to leave the banquet right after it began.
But unfortunately, they were in the palace with the emperor and empress present, so it was not easy to make it clear. So he just shouted Feng Shulai's name angrily and had to hold back the curse words that followed.
[Oh my god, the whole family is here! This is just embarrassing, it's embarrassing beyond words!]
