Wen Chao looked at Wen Yan with resentment. He didn't say anything, but in his heart he was annoyed that he came at the wrong time, otherwise he could have gotten something delicious.
"Myna, have you noticed..."
Wen Yan looked at him, "What?"
"It's just that girl seems to hate you."
Wen Yan frowned, "Why?"
However, Wen Chao thought about it and said, "No, if she really hated you, she wouldn't have cured you of the poison. But I always feel that every time she smiles, she becomes unhappy when she sees you. How did you offend her?"
Wen Chao was quite happy. After all, there were people who were less liked by that girl than himself. Thinking of this, he felt much better.
It turns out that the little girl doesn't just hate herself.
His mother also asked him to spend more time with Xia Zhiliao and take good care of her this time. He thought his mother wanted him to thank her.
"How could I possibly offend her?" Wen Yan said with a frown.
"That's right. With your good temper, you won't offend her. But it's strange. It seems that no one can surpass Wen Heng's position in her heart."
Wen Yan didn't say anything, but he was naturally unconvinced in his heart.
Lu Seyan clenched her fists. Before, the princes were all close to her, but now it’s different. She doesn’t know if it’s because of the incident with the former crown prince that everyone is avoiding her, or because of the appearance of Xia Zhiliao, everyone has become a little distant from her.
She doesn’t care about others, but Wen Yan… has also become close to Xia Zhiliao.
Wen Heng sent Xia Zhiliao to Princess Yi Yang's carriage. The three brothers of the Xia family were also very happy to see him.
Although Wen Heng knew that the three of them loved Xia Zhiliao very much, he still couldn't help but remind them, "There are many people here, take good care of Zhiliao."
"We understand." Xia He said.
After eating and drinking, the team continued on their journey. Although it was an autumn hunt, they also went on a trip to enjoy the mountains and rivers.
Xia Zhiliao had never seen this plot, so she was a little nervous about what was about to happen, hoping that it would have nothing to do with her as a cannon fodder.
If there is anything, come to the protagonist.
Just let her be a cannon fodder and wait for death.
According to the routine of the novel, in things like the Autumn Hunt, either someone loses his innocence, or someone dies tragically, or there are assassins, and the princes fight openly and secretly, and then someone comes to rescue the emperor.
Xia Zhiliao sat in the car with his eyes closed, and went over everything he could guess in his mind with a calm look.
The three brothers of the Xia family standing by also heard it clearly.
They originally just wanted to come and experience the autumn hunting, but after hearing what the little sister said, they immediately lost interest. If they were not afraid of being suspected, they really wanted to turn back.
Any one of what the little sister said is scary enough.
Xia Zhiliao thought about it, but felt that it had nothing to do with him.
After all, she was just a little kid of four or five years old and she was going to lose her innocence?
Even if she took off all her clothes and appeared in a man's bed at this moment, no one would think anything bad.
At most, you won’t be able to hold your head up in ten years.
As for the rest, it has nothing to do with her.
She opened her eyes and tried to see where she was. The pristine beauty of ancient times was quite nice to look at. The key point was that it was not as crowded as it is today during holidays, and all she could see were tourists' heads.
As a result, when she opened her eyes, she saw that her three brothers looked unhappy, as if they had been frightened by something.
But this is totally impossible.
"What's wrong with you?" Xia Zhiliao asked.
All three of them shook their heads.
"Nothing. Why do you look scared? Have you read any ghost stories?" Xia Zhiliao was afraid of being bored, so he brought some books and naturally shared them with his brothers.
She leaned over her brothers and took a look. It wasn't a ghost story.
"Then what are you afraid of?" Xia Zhiliao asked again.
Xia Hai shook his head again, "No... It's okay, I just thought I'd better not participate in the autumn hunt, right?"
"Why?" This time it was Princess Yiyang who spoke up, "Aren't you guys planning to show off your skills?"
Xia Hai shook his head, "Grandma, I think I'm still young, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future, and it won't be of any use whether I show off my skills or not, so I'd better not be in the limelight."
He was afraid of what his sister had just said.
"Big brother, second brother, what about you?" Xia Hai heard it, and he knew that his brothers heard it too.
Seeing that their younger brother said he would not participate, Xia He and Xia Jiang decided not to participate either.
It’s okay not to participate, it’s more in line with their character of cannon fodder.
But Xia Zhiliao felt strange, "Didn't you guys make a solemn promise before? Why did you suddenly change your mind?"
"No, it's enough that we can come and watch the fun." Xia Hai said.
The other two brothers also agreed.
"Since we are here, it would be bad if we don't join in, right?" Princess Yi Yang asked, "If you guys don't want to join, do you want me and your sister to join?"
Otherwise, the princess’s mansion would be laughed at by many people.
Xia Hai took a deep breath and looked at his two brothers, "Do we have to participate?"
"Not really, but since you're here, I want to see your strength. If I don't go, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold my head up in the future."
Xia Hai wanted to say that face or no face, compared with life, nothing is important.
"But if you really don't want to, forget it."
"Grandma, we still have several days to go before we get to the hunting grounds. Maybe my brothers will change their minds by then. Let's just wait and see. It's too early to talk about this now."
Xia Zhiliao said.
The grandparents and grandchildren thought it made sense and decided not to talk about it for the time being.
Moreover, in the following days, the three brothers were extremely cautious. However, the assassination they were worried about did not happen, so they felt more at ease.
They had been on the road for several days and were exhausted. In addition, there was an autumn rain on the road and some ladies fell ill.
After all, when they were in the capital, they were all pampered. The long journey, coupled with the sudden change in weather, made it inevitable that they would get sick.
The accompanying imperial physician also prepared ginger soup for everyone to drive away the cold. After drinking it, everyone felt much warmer.
There were so many people, and Xia Zhiliao deliberately avoided them, so she never met Lu Seyan face to face.
But he also knew that the Lu family had only three women, and he thought that this time the Lu family could only save face but would not earn any honor.
However, she still underestimated the heroine's ability to stir up trouble.
This is a later story.
The weather was cold and it was cold in the tent, but there was a bonfire burning outside and many people went outside.
"You can ask Qinxin and Jianxin to accompany you for a walk."
Qinxin and Jianxin were maids that Princess Yiyang specially found for Xia Zhiliao. As one can tell from their names, one is a scholar and the other is a warrior.
Wen is more cunning, which was taught by Aunt Cui to prevent Xia Zhiliao from being plotted against, while Wu is to protect Xia Zhiliao's safety.
