Chapter 124 Hunting
This is fucking terrifying!
"Training the emperor like a dog?" Liu Zhiyuan couldn't believe her ears. What she heard was so strange.
"Oh, I'm talking about Zhou Kang."
How can the emperor say it is a dog?
Yan Ruyu immediately corrected herself, "You can tame the emperor like a cat, a chicken, or a duck. It's all fine. It depends on what you like."
Liu Zhiyuan, "..."
Girl, you are really brave.
"The Emperor and I are not what you think," she said.
"Even if it's not what I thought, it's pretty close, Yuan'er. Your situation is different from mine. I'm not the emperor's real concubine, and I'll have to leave the palace sooner or later. But you're not. The emperor likes you and even disbanded the harem for you. You'll definitely stay in the palace for the rest of your life."
Yan Ruyu shrugged. "A man who knows the current situation is a hero, don't you understand? Anyway, the result cannot be changed, so it is better to take the initiative first, turn passivity into initiative, control him as soon as possible, tame him, and your future life will be easier."
It seemed so reasonable that she couldn't refute it.
But why do I feel like Yan Ruyu is speaking well of the emperor?
Liu Zhiyuan looked suspicious, "Xiaoyu, could it be that the emperor asked you to be a lobbyist?"
The more he listened, the more it seemed to ask her to accept Xiao Yu.
Yan Ruyu rolled her eyes, "Are you saying that the emperor asked me to tell you to tame him like a dog?"
Liu Zhiyuan, "..."
When she said nothing.
"Look at Zhou Kang. I told him to go east but he didn't dare go west. I told him to stand but he didn't dare sit. I told him to eat but he didn't dare sleep. Others got married to see the faces of their husbands and mothers-in-law, but I got married to be the boss."
Liu Zhiyuan wanted to applaud Yan Ruyu for this ideological awareness.
She seemed to be thinking about something, and it seemed to make sense.
Since Xiao Yu was willing to disband his harem for her, he must be very fond of her now. Why not take advantage of this time to train her well.
Oh no.
Liu Zhiyuan covered his chest with one hand. Why was his heart beating so fast again?
Could it be that the medicine given by Concubine Chen has not been completely eliminated? Every time I think of Xiao Yu, I feel hot and my heart beats faster.
It couldn't be that she was really attracted to Xiao Yu.
Liu Zhiyuan felt a chill.
Yan Ruyu looked at her, touching her chest with a thoughtful expression, but smiled without saying a word.
When Xiao Yu came back from meeting with the ministers, he saw Liu Zhiyuan getting out of bed and hurried over.
Holding Liu Zhiyuan's hand, he asked, "How do you feel today? Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
Yan Ruyu covered her mouth and laughed secretly.
Liu Zhiyuan was a little embarrassed and pulled his hand back, "It's not uncomfortable, it's fine now."
It's just that there might be something wrong with my heart, and it's beating for no apparent reason.
"That's good. I'll take you out for a hunt in a few days to relax."
Yan Ruyu was puzzled. "Autumn period? Isn't it a month? Why is it so fast this year?"
Liu Dehai laughed and interrupted, "The imperial physician said that although Concubine Liu has recovered from the effects of the medicine, her mental state is not very good. She needs to relax outdoors and breathe some fresh air. That's why the emperor brought forward the autumn siege."
Xiao Yu glared at Liu Dehai and told him to stop talking.
Liu Dehai immediately slapped his mouth lightly, "I've said too much."
The smile on his face did not diminish.
Liu Zhiyuan blushed.
Yan Ruyu raised her hand, "I want to go too!"
Xiao Yu ignored her, and Yan Ruyu unilaterally assumed that he agreed.
I began to happily imagine myself riding a fast horse, drawing a bow and arrow, and killing everyone in my path. The thought made me happy.
"My dear, are you going?"
Liu Zhiyuan nodded, "Yeah."
Of course I have to go.
She had never seen the ancient hunting.
In the past, there were small hunting grounds in Europe that were open exclusively to the nobility, and she had been there several times.
But the animals inside are all domestic poultry, and wild animals are not allowed, so hunting is not fun.
Just experience the feeling of hunting like ancient emperors.
And now, she has the opportunity to visit the ancient royal hunting grounds in person!
How can I not be excited?
"When are we going?" Liu Zhiyuan asked.
"Three days later."
Yan Ruyu cheered and quickly sat next to Liu Zhiyuan to discuss the hunting with her.
"Yuan'er, can you ride a horse?"
"A little."
She had learned horse riding before, but she only rode in a stable, which may be different from the real horse riding skills in ancient times.
But riding it is not a problem.
Yan Ruyu obviously didn't expect that she could actually ride a horse, and was a little surprised, "I thought you couldn't ride. Did your father teach you to ride a horse?"
Isn’t Liu Zhongyuan a civil servant? Nowadays, civil servants rarely teach their daughters to ride horses.
Aren't those noble ladies in the capital all trained to be gentle, virtuous, and well-bred ladies? Her father is a military general, and she has followed him in battles since she was a child, so it's normal for her to know how to ride a horse.
Liu Zhiyuan looks weak, so it's quite surprising that she can ride a horse.
Liu Zhiyuan's expression froze for a moment. "Yes, yes, my father taught me, but I only know a little bit, and my riding skills are not very good, hehe."
There was some doubt in Xiao Yu's deep eyes. It seemed that Liu Zhongyuan didn't know how to ride a horse?
…………………………
The bright moon hangs high in the sky, its light is cold and clear, but it cannot shine into the dark corners of the cold palace.
Concubine Chen curled up in the corner, hugging herself tightly, her face pale and trembling with fear.
squeak.
The sound of mice came from the room, and she shuddered in response, shrinking her body into the corner.
There were footsteps outside, and Concubine Chen was like a frightened bird, hugging her head.
"I didn't kill you. Don't come to me. Go away."
"I am the Imperial Concubine, the legitimate daughter of the Chen family. You provoked me first, and you deserve to die."
"Get out of here, you filthy bastards, get out."
She was acting crazy and incoherent, and it was obvious that she was mentally ill.
Squeak——
The door of the cold palace was opened, and Concubine Chen's eyes were full of fear.
Here they come again, those dirty things are here again!
Those people who were killed by her in the past are here to take their lives again!
She was shaking all over, hugging her head tightly and curled up in the corner.
"Miss."
"Ah—get away—"
"Don't touch me, you filthy creatures—"
"Miss, it's me, Li Wei."
Li Wei held a candle in one hand and used his other hand to pull Concubine Chen's arm away, making her look at him.
Hearing the voice, Concubine Chen slowly calmed down and saw the face of the person clearly in the candlelight.
He was an ordinary-looking guard, but he was her acquaintance - a spy planted by the Chen family in the palace patrol team.
"Li Wei, did my father ask you to rescue me? Get me out now, get me out now!"
This place is simply not a place for human beings to stay!
That bitch Yan Ruyu, one day, she will skin her alive with her own hands!
Li Wei hesitated, "Miss, the Prime Minister asked me to ask you what happened and why you were banished to the cold palace."
Concubine Chen's eyes flashed with hatred. "It was those two bitches Liu Zhiyuan and Yan Ruyu! They framed me!"
Li Wei frowned. "Miss, could you explain the whole story clearly? Now that you and the Queen Mother have lost contact with the Prime Minister, he has no idea what's going on in the palace."
Concubine Chen told the story again.
He did not hide the fact that he had plotted against Liu Zhiyuan at all.
In the eyes of the Chen family, they are superior and it is their right to frame others. It is others' own fault!
