Chapter 439 Provocation



"Your Majesty, why would the prince go back on his word?"

"According to what you said, doesn't the prince know what kind of girl he falls in love with?"

The imperial concubine frowned several times. She didn't know when the emperor became more and more gossipy. Could it be that he was led astray by her?

If the ministers found out about this, they would drown her in spit.

"Hey, Your Majesty, tell me, between the Prince of Jingnan and the Princess of Hui'an, who is more dominant when they are together?"

Seeing that the excitement in front had died down, Xie Yunci pulled the imperial concubine to continue hunting, and did not forget to reply to her.

"It's hard to say, but I think it's Prince Jingnan. This guy has been strong-willed since he was a child, and this character is unlikely to change."

"Yeah?"

The corner of the imperial concubine's mouth curled up slightly, "I think differently from your majesty. I think it's the Princess of Hui'an County."

"Oh, then let's make a bet."

"What's the bet?"

Xie Yunci moved closer to the imperial concubine and whispered a few words in her ear in a low voice. The imperial concubine's originally fair face instantly turned red.

"Want to bet? Yi."

"bet."

The word was squeezed out from between teeth, "But I also have conditions."

"Well, you say, I agree."

"If I win, then Your Majesty will allow me to leave the palace at any time. How about that?"

Xie Yunci was a little hesitant. The imperial concubine was a bit playful. If she was allowed to leave the palace at any time, she wouldn’t be seen for several days!

Seeing this, the imperial concubine's eyes flashed with cunning, "Why, Your Majesty, are you not confident in your guess?"

"Of course there is. Okay, that's settled."

"Well, Your Majesty, please don't play dirty. Once you say something, you can't take it back."

Xie Yunci carried her onto the horse and then climbed onto it himself. "I am the Son of Heaven, and I keep my word."

The imperial concubine looked back at him. Xie Yunci understood what she meant and felt a little embarrassed. He pulled the reins to get the horse moving.

Chen Li and the other two did not go back into the tent. There was a martial arts arena outside the tent where some soldiers were fighting. They went over to watch.

When Pei Yu came over, he saw Ali sitting in the stands watching the soldiers fighting, and walked over to them.

"Ali."

Chen Li turned around and looked at him, "Ayu, are you done?"

"Well, wherever you want to go this afternoon, I'll go with you."

Tomorrow he will accompany Xie Yunci into the mountains to hunt, and will stay by his side to protect the emperor's safety.

"No, I'll go hunting in the mountains with you tomorrow."

Pei Yu sat down and drank a cup of tea. "A-Li, I'm going to be with the Emperor tomorrow. There will be many restrictions with him, and I'm worried you won't be used to it."

"It's okay. I'll have to deal with them in the future. I'll get used to it sooner or later."

While she was speaking, Pei Yu kept paying attention to the expression on her face. Seeing that she didn't show any sign of reluctance, he felt relieved.

"good."

Wen Lan saw that the two of them had finished talking before asking, "Your Majesty, where is my young master?"

Pei Yu: "He just checked the imperial concubine's pulse and is preparing medicine now. She should be well soon."

Of course, he didn't have to prepare the medicine himself, but he had to review every package of medicine one by one to prevent someone from tampering with it and putting him in danger.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After asking, Wen Lan moved closer to Su Zhihui to watch the excitement below.

Bai Shuran looked at the scene on the podium with her face veiled, then turned and left.

She made a mistake last night, so naturally she was not allowed to come. She secretly followed here with the help of Bai Shuzhen. Father Bai couldn't do anything with her and could only let her stay.

She was repeatedly told not to cause trouble, otherwise she would be sent back and put under house arrest immediately.

"Princess Saihan."

Princess Saihan had just suffered a loss at the hands of Shen Li and lost a maid. She was feeling very aggrieved when she saw Bai Shuran coming over.

"Miss Bai Er."

After what happened at the palace banquet last night, she already knew Bai Shuran, but she was just curious why she came to see her?

Bai Shuran: "There are soldiers fighting on the arena. I invite Princess Saihan to watch."

Saihan followed her with a believing attitude, until she saw Prince Jingnan and Princess Hui'an on the high platform, she realized that this was their purpose.

"Princess Saihan, I heard you grew up on horseback. I'm sure your riding and archery skills must be quite impressive, right?"

"That's natural."

Saihan held her chin high, "You young ladies in the capital can't compare to her."

If it were any other time, Bai Shuran would have been angry a long time ago, but today she was not angry at all, she laughed instead.

"Princess Saihan must be very angry that her goal wasn't achieved, right?"

Princess Saihan was getting a little impatient. He was really being so slow-paced. Couldn't she just say it directly?

"What does Miss Bai Er mean?"

"Princess, do you know that the Princess of Hui'an was just a peasant girl before? What do you think a peasant girl can do?"

Saihan was not quite sure, but he thought she definitely could not ride a horse or shoot arrows. Only then did he understand her purpose.

"Miss Bai Er's analysis makes sense. I understand."

After she finished speaking, she turned and left. Of course she could see that Bai Shuran was using her, but so what.

She had to vent the anger in her heart. If it were any other time, she would definitely think twice about it, but now, she couldn't think so much.

Bai Shuran's lips curled up slightly. It was because Li Qianru didn't explain it to her in detail and was hesitant when she spoke, otherwise she wouldn't have done such a thing.

She was not so direct as to compete with Chen Li directly. She first provoked several young ladies from military families. In the arena, she used her proficiency in riding and archery to defeat them all.

"Princess Hui'an, I heard that General Zhenbei is your brother. He is very powerful. I think you, as his sister, should be no less capable. Do you dare to compete with me?"

Chen Li was peeling an orange slowly in her hand. When she saw Princess Saihan competing in horse riding and archery in the martial arts field, she knew that she was laying the groundwork.

Sure enough, Xiang Zhuang danced with a sword, aiming at Pei Gong.

Su Zhihui and Wen Lan both looked at Chen Li. The news about the princess was delayed!

In the arena, Princess Saihan rode on a tall horse, her red dress blazing, her brows full of confidence, and she looked at Chen Li provocatively.

"Does the Princess of Hui'an dare to accept the invitation?"

The people watching in the nearby stands immediately started whispering, and none of them were optimistic about Chen Li.

The reason is very simple. In their eyes, the previous identity of the Hui'an County Lady was a peasant girl. What can a peasant girl do?

Work in the fields, do housework, as for horse riding and archery, these are all nonsense.

She was able to have the status of Princess Hui'an because of her contribution in presenting all the treasures. Otherwise, how could a peasant girl like her be worthy of sitting with them?

No one was optimistic about Chen Li. They all agreed that Chen Li would definitely lose the competition with Princess Saihan.

I'm afraid that Prince Jingnan's face will be trampled on this time!
