Chapter 51 Asking the Prince for a Personal Relationship
Shen Chuwei had just taken a big bite of a meat bun, and his cheeks were bulging, so it was inconvenient for him to answer.
Xiao Jinyan said quietly, "I let her eat this, what do you think is wrong with that, Chang Liangdi?"
Chang Liang Di hurriedly shook her head and explained, "Your Highness, that's not what I meant. I just feel bad that Your Highness is lacking in nutrition from eating these light porridge and side dishes. If it affects the hunting competition, it will be bad."
Xiao Jinyan glanced at Shen Chuwei and said, "I have a poor appetite recently and cannot eat greasy food. Shen Fengyi just doesn't want to waste it. Chang Liangdi should learn from Shen Fengyi's virtue."
"I was overthinking. I will remember your instructions." Chang Liangdi clutched the handkerchief tightly on her lap and looked at Shen Chuwei sideways. "Sister, you won't blame me, right?"
Shen Chuwei took another bite of the meat bun. Her mouth was full and she still couldn't speak. So she simply stopped talking and picked up a piece of braised pork and stuffed it into her mouth and started eating.
Seeing that Shen Chuwei ignored her, Chang Liangdi relied on the prince's favor to ignore her. But she was Liangdi. What qualifications did a mere concubine have to ignore her?
Xiao Jinyan drank the porridge slowly. This was the second time he heard someone say that Shen Chuwei was a little Feng Yi. He raised his head and looked at Shen Chuwei opposite him. She was eating a bun and a piece of braised pork with particularly delicious taste.
But she doesn't care about the position.
Xiao Jinyan put down his bowl and chopsticks, wiped the corners of his mouth with a wet handkerchief, "Are you done eating?"
Shen Chuwei saw Xiao Jinyan had already put down her bowl and chopsticks, so she had to put down her bowl and chopsticks as well, "I'm done eating."
As he spoke, he picked up two meat buns, wrapped them in oil paper and put them in his arms to eat when he was hungry later.
Xiao Jinyan glanced at Shen Chuwei's action and did not stop her, "Let's go."
Shen Chuwei followed Xiao Jinyan out of the tent holding Xuetuan, leaving Chang Liangdi alone inside.
As a concubine, how could she accept being ignored by His Highness?
After leaving the tent, Qin Xiao came towards him, lowered his brows and nodded: "Your Highness, I found this person 500 meters away from the tent last night. The person who threw the snake should be nearby, but I don't know who it is."
Xiao Jinyan lowered his eyes and glanced at the sack in Qin Xiao's hand, then glanced at the nearby tents. He had just been appointed crown prince not long ago, and his brothers were dissatisfied. This autumn hunting event was the best opportunity.
He didn't expect that on the first night they arrived, they would be so eager to take action against him.
It looks like hunting today is also full of dangers.
Shen Chuwei looked at the sack. It turned out that the three poisonous snakes were put in there intentionally last night with the intention of killing people.
Poisonous snakes will not bite her because she can communicate with animals through telepathy and has a special fragrance on her body. Even ferocious wolves will not attack her.
She originally thought that the strange fragrance would disappear after she traveled through time and space to this body, but the last time she tried to come into contact with the wolf, she discovered that the strange fragrance had not disappeared.
But the poisonous snake will bite Xiao Jinyan. Fortunately, she didn't sleep last night, otherwise Xiao Jinyan would be dead and she would be dead too.
There will be a hunting competition on the first day of the Autumn Examination, and the winner will receive a reward from the emperor.
The emperor had a total of twenty princes. Excluding those who died in infancy, there were fifteen left, three of whom were still infants.
There are twelve princes present today, all eager to try their best to get the first place and win the reward.
Xiao Jinyan is no exception.
Xiao Jinyu came to Xiao Jinyan's side, glanced around and didn't see Shen Chuwei. He asked in confusion: "Brother, you didn't bring your sister-in-law with you?"
Even though the Queen did not allow Xiao Jinyu to call Shen Chuwei sister-in-law, Xiao Jinyu felt that calling her sister-in-law was most appropriate.
Xiao Jinyan glanced at his brother in confusion, "Huh?"
Xiao Jinyu said excitedly: "I caught a rabbit and wanted to give it to my sister-in-law to play with. Don't girls like cute furry animals?"
"..." Xiao Jinyan: "No need."
Xiao Jinyu asked: "Doesn't your sister-in-law like rabbits?"
Shen Chuwei was standing next to Xiao Jinyu. When she heard him catch the rabbit, she shouted in her heart: I want it, why don’t you want it!
She looked at Xiao Jinyan with some disappointment, you didn’t even ask me!
Xiao Jinyan glanced at Shen Chuwei, and her little face was full of the words "I really want it"! He retracted his gaze: "What does it have to do with you whether she likes it or not?"
"Of course it is related." Xiao Jinyu said earnestly: "Brother, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you don't understand girls' minds at all. Girls need to be coaxed and catered to. Only in this way can you win their hearts."
Shen Chuwei couldn't help but give a thumbs up. If Xiao Jinyan had half of your awareness, he and Chang Liangdi would have been in love with each other a long time ago, and he wouldn't have been in a cold war with Chang Liangdi every other day.
Xiao Jinyan: “…” I don’t need that kind of realization.
Seeing that Xiao Jinyan ignored her, Xiao Jinyu couldn't help but complain, "Brother, fortunately you are a prince, and women all rush to your arms. Otherwise, with your paralyzed face, you would probably be self-admiring."
Xiao Jinyan: “…”
Xiao Jinyu noticed a young boy in red standing behind him. He walked up to the boy and looked him up and down curiously. He stared at the delicate and tender face for a long time before smiling and saying, "Are you the new guard? You look familiar."
Shen Chu smiled. How could he not look familiar after meeting him once?
"You are so handsome." Xiao Jinyu leaned close to his ear and whispered, "You are prettier than my brother."
Shen Chu glanced at Xiao Jinyan and smiled even more awkwardly. Xiao Jinyu, is it really appropriate for you to say that?
Xiao Jinyan looked at his brother standing close to Shen Chuwei, with his hand showing signs of hooking his arm around her shoulder. With a cold face, he took a few steps forward, grabbed Xiao Jinyu's collar, and pulled him to the front.
Xiao Jinyu stood on the tiptoes of the ground, and her peach blossom eyes could not help but glance at the boy in red: "Brother, I want to ask you for someone."
Xiao Jinyan: "Who?"
Xiao Jinyu said: "That red-robed guard, I want him."
Xiao Jinyan coldly refused: "No."
Xiao Jinyu: "Why?"
Xiao Jinyan: "No means no, why are there so many whys?"
Xiao Jinyu turned around to look at the red-robed guard, and Xiao Jinyan's cold voice came from above: "What are you looking at?"
Xiao Jinyu only felt a chill on his back and shook his head hastily, "I didn't see anything."
After the emperor finished speaking, Xiao Jinyan and the remaining eleven princes were ready.
Before leaving, Xiao Jinyan told Shen Chuwei, "Don't run around."
Shen Chu nodded slightly, "I understand, Your Highness, please be careful."
"Yes." Xiao Jinyan instructed Qin Xiao again: "Protect her well."
Qin Xiao lowered his eyebrows and nodded: "I obey your command."
Xiao Jinyan glanced at Shen Chuwei, then mounted his horse and went hunting.
After everyone left, Shen Chuwei planned to catch a rabbit and roast it for food.
As soon as he turned around, Qin Xiao grabbed him by the collar and pulled him back, "Little brother, where do you want to go?"
Since a guard needed his special protection, Qin Xiao knew that Shen Chuwei must have someone backing him.
Shen Chuwei said: "I want to catch rabbits."
Qin Xiao said: "Why would a boy like you catch rabbits? I always feel that your Highness' hunting this time is very dangerous."
