Chapter 422: No Ambiguity, Straight Men Can't Flirt

Shen Chuwei was calm and composed, staring at the rabbit that ran away, "If only it had been a little dumber and bumped into a tree instead."

Just as he finished speaking, the rabbit panicked and bumped into the opposite tree, fainting.

Concubine Xu widened her eyes and excitedly grabbed Shen Chuwei's hand, "The rabbit really hit the tree, Crown Princess, you are amazing."

Tao Liangyuan was also stunned, "Is this possible?"

Shen Chuwei chuckled twice, trotted over, bent down, picked up the wild rabbit on the ground, and came back happily.

"Now we have roasted rabbit to eat."

Concubine Xu stared at the wild rabbit in Shen Chuwei's hand for a long time. When she looked up at Shen Chuwei, she was still a little bit unbelievable: "Crown Princess, is this how you caught rabbits before?"

Shen Chu nodded, "Yes, that's how I catch rabbits every time, and I always catch them accurately."

Concubine Xu raised her thumbs, "Awesome!"

Chunxi saw Shen Chuwei from a distance. She trotted over and saw the rabbit in Shen Chuwei's hand. She said excitedly: "Master, you are so fast. You caught the rabbit so quickly."

Shen Chu was quite proud, "Of course."

Tao Liangyuan noticed that Chunxi's face was particularly red, and asked in confusion: "Chunxi, are you sick? Your face is so red."

Chunxi touched his face upon hearing this and found it was very hot. He knew it was red without even looking.

Upon hearing this, Shen Chuwei reached out and grabbed Chunxi's wrist, placed her fingers on her pulse, and shook her head after a few seconds, "Chunxi is in good health, not sick."

Chunxi thought about what had just happened and guessed why her face was so red. She hurriedly took the wild rabbit from Shen Chuwei.

"I'm fine, shall we go roast the rabbit?"

Concubine Xu said, "Let's go, I'm hungry."

Shen Chuwei was also hungry, so the group walked back.

Chunxi was stunned when she met Qin Xiao on the way. She didn't expect Qin Xiao to follow her. Thinking of what he had just said, the heat on her cheeks just subsided, but now it started to heat up again.

Qin Xiao stepped forward and saluted, "Crown Princess, Consort Xu, Tao Liangyuan."

Shen Chuwei looked at Qin Xiao with a puzzled look on his face. Shouldn't Xiao Jinyan's personal bodyguard follow Xiao Jinyan closely?

"Guard Qin, why are you here?"

Qin Xiao raised his eyes and looked at Chunxi, "I followed Chunxi here."

Seeing Chunxi holding the wild rabbit, he took the rabbit from her and said, "I'll help you."

Chunxi was extremely embarrassed. It was only after the wild rabbit was taken away by Qin Xiao that she reacted and her face blushed even more.

Concubine Xu looked at the two's actions and said with a smile, "Guard Qin and Chunxi have a pretty good relationship."

Shen Chuwei nodded in agreement, "Of course, Her Highness and I live next door to each other, and they are very familiar with each other."

Tao Liangyuan saw Chunxi's face turn red again, and her shy little woman behavior, and couldn't help but joked: "I think Qin Shiwei and Miss Chunxi have more than just a relationship."

Qin Xiao lowered his eyes and looked at Chunxi and said, "I'll go take care of the rabbit."

Chunxi lowered her head and didn't look at Qin Xiao. Just go, why are you telling me what to do? Really.

Seeing Chunxi ignoring him, Qin Xiao said, "Chunxi, come with me. I can give it to you after I'm done with it."

Shen Chuwei, Xu Tao and the other two stared at the two people in front of them without blinking, and they all felt that there was something wrong.

Chunxi found that Shen Chuwei and the others were watching, and felt embarrassed and annoyed, "I'm not going."

Seeing that Chunxi was unwilling, Qin Xiao didn't want to force her, so he picked up the wild rabbit and went to the river to deal with it.

Chunxi breathed a sigh of relief only after Qin Xiao left.

The group returned to the tent and started building a fire.

Firewood was readily available because it was prepared in advance at this time of year.

Chunxi prepared the rack and seasonings in advance and was just waiting for the rabbit.

It was the first time for Xu Cefei and Tao Liangyuan to build a bonfire outside and roast a rabbit. They felt novel and excited.

Qin Xiao always works very quickly. In a short while, he took the prepared and cleaned rabbit and handed it to Chunxi.

Chunxi raised her head. She was too embarrassed to look at Qin Xiao when she took the rabbit from his hand. She lowered her head and began to pickle it.

Seeing that Chunxi still ignored him, Qin Xiao felt even more that he had said the wrong thing. As the prince's personal bodyguard, he did not have much free time, so he could only find another time to admit his mistake.

Only after Qin Xiao left did Chunxi dare to raise her head.

At this time, in the emperor's tent

After the emperor left, only the empress stayed in the tent, along with Qingying, her personal servant.

After resting for an hour, he recovered.

After living with the babies for a while, every day was very lively. Now I feel a little uncomfortable looking at the quiet tent.

Qingying brought a cup of fresh tea and placed it in front of the empress, and asked gently, "Your Majesty, are you hungry? I'll ask someone to prepare some food."

The queen shook her head. "I don't have much appetite."

Thinking of Shen Chuwei, she suddenly raised her head and looked at Qingying, "Go and see the Crown Princess."

Qingying responded, "Okay."

The queen left the tent and walked towards the prince's tent. She smelled the fragrance before she arrived.

She asked Qingying doubtfully, "Qingying, do you smell the fragrance?"

Qingying said: "I smelled something, it seemed like the smell of barbecue."

In fact, the queen had been hungry for a long time, but she had no appetite. When she smelled the aroma of barbecue, her appetite immediately came back.

"Who's barbecuing at this time? Go and take a look."

The queen followed the scent and came over. She saw a fire not far away with several people sitting around it. The scent must have come from there.

When they got closer, the Queen confirmed that the people sitting by the fire were none other than the Crown Princess and Concubine Xu.

"You guys really know how to enjoy yourself. Are you going to roast a rabbit now?"

Shen Chuwei raised his head and saw the queen coming. He stood up and greeted her, "Mother, you are here just in time. We are roasting rabbits."

Xu and Tao also stood up and bowed together with Shen Chuwei.

The queen smelled the food and felt hungry. She smiled and said, "You guys are quite fast, but I am a little hungry. I just caught up with you."

With Qingying's support, he sat on a small stool beside the fire and asked them to sit down as well.

"I'll go prepare some seasoning." Shen Chuwei stood up and ran into the tent, taking out the chili sauce and thin crackers.

Rolling the roasted rabbit in pancakes can reduce the greasiness.

The pizza is made in advance and placed in the space, which has both refrigeration and preservation functions, so the food can be kept fresh without spoiling.

When Shen Chuwei came back with the condiments, everyone looked at her with curiosity and more anticipation.

Watching Shen Chuwei place the things on the tray on the table one by one, including hot sauce and thin cakes.

There is also a pot of hot tea to relieve the greasiness.

The Queen was hungry and couldn't wait to roast the rabbit. She looked at the pancake on the table and asked Shen Chuwei curiously, "Crown Princess, how do you eat this pancake?"

Shen Chuwei poured a cup of tea for the empress, Concubine Xu and Tao Liangyuan.

“This pancake doesn’t taste very good when eaten alone, but it tastes good when rolled with roasted rabbit meat.”

The Queen said with a hint of regret: "I thought I could eat it alone."

Here, Chunxi has already roasted the rabbit meat and put it aside to cool, sprinkling some chopped green onions and sesame seeds on it.

After letting it cool for a while, he took a knife and started to slice the meat and put it on a plate.

The Queen and others were waiting for Shen Chuwei to demonstrate.

Shen Chuwei was not polite. She picked up the pizza and placed it in her palm. She put two pieces of rabbit meat on the pizza, brushed some chili sauce on it, rolled it up, put it in her mouth and took a bite. It tasted even better than roast duck.

Qingying knew that the queen was hungry. After Shen Chuwei finished demonstrating, she picked up the pancake, sandwiched two pieces of roasted rabbit meat, spread some hot sauce on it, rolled it up, and handed it to the queen, "Queen, you can eat it now."

The queen was already greedy, so she took it and took a bite impatiently, and found that the taste was better than she had imagined.

“This roasted rabbit meat is really delicious.”

Qingying took the pancake and continued to roll it.

Concubine Xu followed suit, and after eating it, she also praised it highly.

While Shen Chuwei was eating, she didn't forget to give Chunxi a roll.

Chunxi was busy slicing the meat and Teng had no time to move. She finished it in two bites and was very happy because her master would never forget her every time he ate.

Shen Chuwei took a sip of tea and continued to eat the meat roll with the pancake.

Concubine Xu said as she ate, "When you hang out with the Crown Princess, you're bound to have delicious food."

The Queen nodded in agreement, "I agree with Concubine Xu."

Shen Chuwei stared at the rabbit skeleton while eating. It would be a shame to just throw it away.

…

Xiao Jinyu has caught rabbits before and knows where to catch little rabbits quickly.

A little gray rabbit might have lost its way and was caught by Xiao Jinyu.

Xiao Jinyu looked down at the furry little rabbit in his hand, walked back happily, and saw Wan Xin walking towards him.

"Why are you here?"

"I have nothing to do, so I followed you to see what Prince Yu is doing." Wan Xin lowered her eyes to look at the little rabbit in Xiao Jinyu's hand and exclaimed, "What a cute rabbit."

Xiao Jinyu looked at the little rabbit in his hand with great pride, "Of course."

Wanxin looked at Xiao Jinyu expectantly, "Lord Yu, can I hold the little rabbit?"

Xiao Jinyu refused directly, "No, this is for Miss Han."

Wan Xin's eyes froze for a moment, and looking at Xiao Jinyu's extremely serious eyes, she said unwillingly, "I just hugged you."

Xiao Jinyu still refused very straightforwardly, "If it's not for Miss Han, you can hug it. If it's for Miss Han, no one else can touch it."

Seeing that Xiao Jinyu insisted, Wan Xin did not force him, "Okay."

On the way back, Wanxin found that Xiao Jinyu walked very fast and she could not keep up at all. She stared at the little rabbit in Xiao Jinyu's hand and did not notice the vines under her feet, and accidentally tripped and fell to the ground.

"ah!!"

When Xiao Jinyu heard the voice, he turned around and saw Wan Xin falling to the ground. She must have fallen hard, and her eyes were red.

He sighed. She was so weak, why did she follow me? Wouldn't she delay my return?

Xiao Jinyu had no choice but to walk back and squatted in front of Wan Xin. "Are you okay? Let's keep going."

Wanxin sat up on the ground and rubbed her aching knees, tears hanging on her eyelashes.
