Prime Minister's Office.
Xu Youran pouted and tugged at Wu's sleeve, coquettishly saying, "Mother, the prince will also be going on the hunt that day. Find a reason to keep that vixen Xu Jinyi at home and don't let her steal my limelight."
"Don't worry, mother has already made arrangements. If she can't go that day, mother won't let her stand in your way."
After saying this, a hint of cruelty flashed in Wu's eyes.
If Xu Jinyi's face wasn't useful, she wouldn't have kept her until now.
"That's good, mother. What about Xu Haoran? What are you going to do with him? He actually won such a huge battle. Now even the emperor has noticed him. We can't let him take over father's position as a duke."
"It's a surprise that he came back alive. If he didn't come back, it would be to pave the way for your brother Boran."
"Don't even think about taking anything from the Prime Minister's Mansion."
Wu's eyes flashed, and she thought of the princess's words, and came up with a vicious plan.
When Xu Jinyi received the message asking her to stay at home and not go out on the day of hunting, she was not surprised at all.
I don't plan to ask for it.
Xu Haoran's face was filled with indignation: "Yier, don't be afraid, brother will take you there."
How could Xu Haoran not know what Wu was planning? She just wanted to hide his sister away from people's attention.
Is he just waiting for his younger sister to reach marriage age so that he can take control of her marriage?
Xu Jinyi shook her head. "Wasn't my brother responsible for the safety of the hunting grounds that day? And it's better if I don't go. Like mother said, my appearance can easily attract trouble."
Xu Haoran paused. After three years of growth, his younger sister had grown up to be truly stunningly beautiful.
Now, they have no power and influence to protect themselves. If they are really valued by the powerful, I am afraid that his father will push his sister out directly to seek her future.
Xu Haoran looked guilty: "It's my brother's fault that I trapped you in this small courtyard for so many years without you ever going out."
Xu Jinyi shook his head: "Brother is already great. He has been fighting in the military camp without relying on his family. These years must have been very difficult. We will definitely get through it one day."
"Well, when I work harder and can share it, I will definitely take you with me."
Xu Jinyi's eyes were filled with tears: "Okay."
In her previous life, this wish was never fulfilled until her death. In this life, she wants to help her brother escape from here.
Let their enemies look up to them and become their nightmare.
It snowed lightly on the day of hunting.
Xu Jinyi's thin figure stood in the yard, opening his arms to embrace the first snow, letting his hair flutter in the wind and snow.
She has very fair skin and rosy lips. Her delicate and beautiful face is enough to amaze people.
Even if she is only wearing a plain long dress, it is difficult to conceal her lively temperament.
Xu Youran looked at the naturally charming Xu Jinyi with jealousy.
"Alas, what a pity to lose such beautiful snow. If I were not in poor health, I could go out hunting with my younger sister."
Seeing the enemy from the previous life, Xu Jinyi almost couldn't control his expression. He lowered his eyes with the same expression and remained silent as before.
Xu Youran sneered sarcastically, still so boring, just a punching bag.
"It's getting late. Sister, you can just stay home and enjoy the snow scene. I'm going out first."
Looking at the departing figure, Xu Jinyi's face became gloomy and he turned back to the room.
"Mianmian, I'm not feeling well today. You stay outside while I take a nap."
"Yes, miss."
There were several maids and old women outside the yard, all of whom were sent by Wu to monitor her. If she wanted to go to the hunting ground, it would definitely not work by going through the main gate.
Fortunately, there was a secret passage from her room leading to the woods outside Beijing.
She discovered this by accident. She never dared to walk in this eerie place. But in her previous life, when she was desperate, she walked through it once and knew where to go bravely.
In the yard, two maids watched Xu Jinyi walk into the room and close the door. They looked at each other and stood guard outside the yard.
Xu Jinyi put on a red cloak and walked into the secret passage with a torch.
In the mountains and forests.
The emperor, holding a bow in his hand and looking handsome, rode on a tall horse. He squeezed his legs and the horse galloped forward like the wind.
A team of guards followed him at a sprint.
The wild beasts in the jungle fled for their lives, and no one who appeared under the emperor's nose survived.
The emperor hunted very quickly. He had a serious face and picked up three arrows and put them on the bow.
Three arrows were shot at the same time, and a tiger, a wild boar and a rabbit fell to the ground not far away.
The men under his command praised the emperor's majesty, and then ran over to take the prey away.
The emperor turned around and looked at the group of fools cheering for him, and suddenly felt it was extremely boring.
Leaving behind a group of fools, the emperor came to the waterfall in the deep forest alone.
He likes it here very much. The sound of flowing water can relax him.
This waterfall is very majestic. The flowing water splashes up mist five or six feet high, turning into pieces of white water.
Under the sunlight, it reflects brilliant and dazzling light, forming a colorful rainbow.
Xu Jinyi was also captivated by such a beautiful scenery.
Standing on the big rock under the waterfall, with my hands open, I caught the snowflakes and couldn't help spinning around.
The bright red cloak fluttered, forming large flowing circles.
A laughter as clear as a silver bell reached the emperor's ears.
The voice was sweet and pleasant, like the sound of nature, which attracted the emperor's attention.
The emperor looked in the direction of the call and was amazed at the fairy who looked like a fairy who had strayed into the human world. He stared ahead with his infatuated eyes, afraid of scaring the fairy.
Her figure is light and nimble, like a butterfly dancing in winter, and every move she makes is intoxicating.
The emperor's deep eyes were tinged with color, and his gaze on Xu Jinyi became fiery.
As if sensing a strange gaze, Xu Jinyi opened her eyes and saw a foreign man there.
Like a frightened rabbit, he subconsciously wanted to escape.
In a panic, he stumbled and said, "Ah——"
The emperor flew up, grabbed Xu Jinyi's slender waist, turned half a circle in the air, and landed steadily on the ground.
The emperor stared at the incredibly beautiful face in front of him, stunned.
Looking closer, the face was breathtakingly beautiful, and the girl's clear, bright eyes looked at him in panic.
The emperor seemed to hear the sound of his own heartbeat like thunder.
It was the first time that Xu Jinyi was so close to a man. She withdrew from the man's arms in fear, grabbed her cloak and tried to escape.
The emperor would not let the prey escape easily after he had caught her eye, so he immediately started chasing after her.
He caught up with the beauty in a few steps and grabbed her with his big hands.
The emperor couldn't help but caress the little hand's smooth and delicate touch.
Xu Jinyi looked at the tall man in front of her with fear and tears in her eyes.
"Let me go, let me go, what are you going to do?" Xu Jinyi shouted in panic, looking at the man with fear on her face.
Her eyes were misty, and she was obviously very scared, but the tears in her eyes seemed to be held back and would not fall, which made people feel pity for her.
