"Whether Princess Zhaoyang admits it or not, what does it have to do with you?"

Aria played with the arrows in her hand and taunted those who taunted her.

"Why, can you make the decision for Princess Zhaoyang? The Imperial Master is resting in another tent. Why don't I take you there to ask for an explanation and let you take the place of the Imperial Master and teach Princess Zhaoyang?"

Aria's sarcastic anger actually frightened the rich girls who wanted to step on her.

"Well, don't forget your business." A lady in a green dress kindly stopped the quarrel and asked the guard kindly, "Who shot the first prey?"

The guard looked embarrassed: "My Lords and Ladies, it's...Princess Zhaoyang!"

Everyone was silent, only Aria smiled happily.

"That's exactly what I was saying."

Any place in the hunting ground where there are living things is a hunting ground.

"quick!"

"Fourth brother hasn't hunted a single one yet, I'm afraid we'll lose today!"

"It's too early to say that now!"

"Of course! Third brother, you have to trust fourth brother. He really treasures his colorful zither! Maybe fourth brother can hunt a ferocious beast!"

The four men rode away on horseback, with the guards chasing after them, galloping recklessly with a carefree spirit that was unique to them.

Helian Chi rode his horse to catch up with Helian Yu's team, bypassed the guards who were following them, and raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw the prey the guards were carrying.

He walked side by side with Helian Yu and praised her: "It seems that Xiao Yuer has gained a lot."

"Of course!" Helian Yu raised her head proudly, her black hair set off her delicate features, the golden light carefully outlined her profile, depicting her vitality, spirit and pride, "I am a master of both civil and military affairs! Is it in vain that I practice martial arts at the hour of Mao every day?"

Helian Chi laughed: "You just woke up at Chenshi, how can you practice martial arts at Maoshi?"

Helian Yu straightened his back and refuted stubbornly, "Fourth brother doesn't live in the Imperial Master's Residence, so of course he doesn't know how hard I work! I practice martial arts at dawn every day, and study at midnight. I am so tired and exhausted!"

Helian Chi did not refute. Who in the capital does not know that Princess Zhaoyang's words are the most untrustworthy? There is a saying among the people about her: Princess Zhaoyang's money is used to save disasters, the people and the world; Princess Zhaoyang's words are used to deceive people, ghosts and His Majesty.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Xiaoyuer. No wonder you can hunt so many prey."

Helian Chi followed her words and praised her.

Helian Yu was happy, her brows raised, and she was about to chat with him when a hasty shadow flashed by her peripheral vision, and she quickly raised her bow.

The arrow flew through the air.

Bringing a golden light.

Helian Chi looked at her face, and in a trance, he seemed to have the shadow of his father's fierce spirit, the indifferent and calm composure of the national teacher, and three points of childishness that belonged to her.

A strange feeling rose in his heart.

He thought, if she was a man, when he saw her for the first time, he would not let her... live.

Helian Yu's lips curled up into a defiant smile. She tilted her head, her ponytail raised high, her dark eyes sparkling and clear like spring water: "Fourth brother, how about I give you a few, so that you won't be laughed at by others?"

Helian Chi smiled and raised his bow, glancing lazily to the right, his eyes suddenly became sharp, and an arrow shot out.

"Don't worry, Xiao Yu'er. Fourth Brother can still shoot one or two little things."

The guards carried out a huge wild boar.

Helian Yu raised his eyebrows and whistled: "Fourth brother is so lucky."

Helian Chi's smile, which had just crept up to his eyebrows, suddenly stopped, and his face almost turned black: "Where did you learn these hooligan behaviors? Aren't you afraid that your father and the imperial teacher will beat you up?"

"Don't be afraid~" Helian Yu whistled again provocatively, even whistling out a rhythm, "I am whistling to cultivate my sentiments, can Fourth Brother hear it? This is the tune of Erquan Yingyue."

Helian Chi: "..."

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Helian Yu pulled the reins, drove the horse forward, turned around and shouted to Helian Chi, "Fourth brother! I'm leaving first! See you later--"

On one side of the enclosure, there was wanton pursuit and hunting, while on the other side, there was a calm confrontation and fighting.

"It's been half a year. How long are you going to play with her?"

The man's face was covered with a black mask with gold patterns, his voice was hoarse and unpleasant, and his fingers holding the chess pieces were as white as jade, slender, with distinct joints, like the most delicate works of art.

Xie Rangchen was wearing a red dress, his eyebrows and eyes were cold, and he put the chess pieces on the chessboard: "It's none of your business."

"It's none of my business? Haha..." The man sneered, the disdain in his eyes solidified, "I'm your brother, how come it's none of my business? You should kill her as soon as possible."

Xie Rangchen raised his eyes, confused: "Did she provoke you?"

The man almost choked on his saliva, his eyes under the mask were filled with astonishment: "Do you know what you are saying? You have the blood of a dragon, a phoenix, and a nine-tailed fox, why do you want to get entangled with a... a little stupid thing? Do you like her to shed hair, or do you like her to pluck the hair from your tail to make a scarf? Or do you like her to eat hundreds of bottles of elixir and leave two rabbit ears when she transforms? Just a little stupid thing, how long are you going to be confused?"

Xie Rangchen calmly rejected the man's words, "Her intelligence is not fully developed, so this is normal. When you were not fully developed, you fell into the human world and were sold to a restaurant to cook. In comparison, she was able to save her life, which is a thousand times better than you."

“…”

The man was silent.

After a long while, he was unwilling to speak.

"Brother, why don't you find someone who already has spiritual intelligence?"

"You really want to know?"

"Of course! Of course I want to know why you're targeting a stupid rabbit!"

"She..." Xie Rangchen lifted his eyelids, with a strange cloud in his eyes, "Everything she has now is thanks to me."

"Of course it's all thanks to you! Didn't you raise her?" The man rolled his eyes and tapped the chessboard with his fingers. "Can you please stop saying disgusting things? Say something useful."

“…”

"Hey, go ahead and say it. Isn't that what you want to say?"

Xie Rangchen pulled his lips and dropped a white piece on the chessboard. The black piece instantly lost its energy, and the outcome of the game was decided.

"Do you still remember the first egg in Qingqiu Mountain?"

"The first egg?" The man sneered. "It's not like I haven't heard of it. At the beginning of the chaos of heaven and earth, the first egg in Qingqiu Mountain absorbed all the evil energy between heaven and earth. When it transformed, it had no body, but it could transform everything in the world at will. Because the egg was too reckless, it was suppressed by the alliance and is now sealed in the Chaos Tree."

Xie Rangchen looked at the man and said slowly, "He's gone."

"How is it possible! If the egg escaped, the world would have been in chaos... Wait!" The man stood up suddenly, put his arms on the table, and asked, "You are not going to tell me that the stupid thing is the egg?"

"Any questions?"

"...There is a big problem!" The man wanted to pry open Xie Rangchen's head to see what was inside. "I originally thought you had a heavy taste and liked the little stupid thing that just transformed. It turns out that you really have a heavy taste. You fucking like the ancestor who was born at the beginning of the world! And he is an evil ancestor! You are so rebellious that you let others treat you like a little kid and let others call you master! You really are - not afraid of death!"

The man cursed for a while, but he was not satisfied, so he continued to curse.

"Do you know what I'm thinking about now? I'm wondering where to bury you!"

Xie Rangchen pondered: "That which cannot be learned or achieved but is in nature is called nature. That which can be learned and achieved by human effort is called artificiality. This is the difference between nature and artificiality."

"Don't use nonsense words, I don't understand. Who are you talking about? What do you mean?"

Xie Rangchen choked up and explained, "Xunzi. Nature and emotions are innate, and cannot and should not be interfered with. But the choices, thoughts, learning, and actions acquired after birth should be borne by oneself or interfered with by the outside world. Even if one's nature is evil, it can also turn to good."

“I don’t understand!”

The man was not happy to listen to Xie Rangchen's long speech. He pulled off the black and gold mask on his face, revealing a face that looked 70% like Xie Rangchen, and slammed the table angrily.

"You should send her back! I have never seen a pervert like you! You pretend to be a decent person, but you actually do beastly things! You have ruined the reputation of the ancestors! Aren't you afraid of causing a big mess? Aren't you the one who thinks about the overall situation? Have you ever thought about the consequences?"

Xie Rangchen lowered his eyes: "You don't understand."

"Of course I don't understand! No matter how perverted I am, I can never blaspheme my ancestors!"
