Chapter 53 Straw Bag Beauty?

Shen Chuwei's eyebrows curved slightly, and when he smiled, two small canine teeth were exposed. "Because Your Highness is the future crown prince, even the heavens will help Your Highness."

It was clearly just a flattering remark, but it felt a little different when it came out of Shen Chuwei's mouth.

"Don't say such flattering words to me."

"I am telling the truth."

After Shen Chuwei finished speaking, she saw a pheasant in the bushes. She excitedly grabbed Xiao Jinyan's hand and pointed at the bushes, saying, "Your Highness, there is a pheasant there."

Xiao Jinyan lowered his eyes to glance at the white hand on his wrist, paused, and then followed the direction of Shen Chuwei's finger. Sure enough, he saw a pheasant's tail emerging from the grass. He had been walking around for so long without seeing any prey, so he was a little confused by the sudden appearance of prey.

He took off the bow swiftly, quickly pulled out an arrow with his slender fingers, drew the bow and shot the arrow, all in one go.

The arrow hit the pheasant accurately.

"Your Highness is a great archer." Shen Chuwei was a little excited. In her eyes, it was a roast chicken that was about to become delicious and fragrant.

Xiao Jinyan rode his horse to the pheasant and saw Shen Chuwei impatiently bending down to hold the arrow feather tightly and pick up the pheasant, with excitement written all over her little face.

Xiao Jinyan removed the arrow feathers, tied the pheasant with a rope and hung it on the horse's back.

Just after hanging the pheasant, Xiao Jinyan saw a deer not far away. He put the arrow on the bow and shot the deer accurately.

Xiao Jinyan was hunting, and Shen Chuwei didn't just watch him. She also took out an oil-paper bag from her arms, and ate a meat bun while admiring Xiao Jinyan's archery skills.

I couldn't help but praise in my heart that Xiao Jinyan's archery skills are really so perfect that he can hit the target every time and penetrate the arrow from a hundred steps away!

In a short while, Xiao Jinyan shot a lot of prey, and the horse was full of them. The rest were all hung on the back of another horse.

Just as Shen Chuwei said, we returned with a full load.

When he was alone, he didn't see any prey, but since Shen Chuwei came, prey kept appearing in front of him.

This once again confirms the fact that Shen Chuwei is a lucky charm for her husband.

Shen Chuwei looked at the pheasants, rabbits, and deer as prey, rubbed his hands secretly, and was already thinking about how to eat them.

Xiao Jinyan was the first to return, and he returned with a great success.

All the ministers and generals present were surprised.

Xiao Jinyan stepped forward and bowed, "Father, I am back.

The emperor couldn't help but applaud and said, "The prince's archery skills are getting better and better. He is the first one to come back with a great harvest. Not bad."

Xiao Jinyan bowed and said, "Thank you, father, for the compliment."

When Xiao Yunxuan came back happily, he saw that Xiao Jinyan had already returned. He was stunned at first, and then felt a little proud, thinking that even if he spent more time, he would still return empty-handed.

He got off the horse neatly, walked forward with a smile on his face and bowed, "Father, I am back."

The emperor glanced at the prey on Xiao Yunxuan's horse and nodded in appreciation, "The eldest prince has made a good harvest this time."

"Thank you, Father, for the compliment."

Xiao Yunxuan turned his head to look at Xiao Jinyan, with a smug smile on his face: "How was the battle today, Prince?"

Xiao Jinyan replied without boasting, "Big brother is an extraordinary archer."

Xiao Yunxuan's eyes were filled with even more pride, and he wore a humble smile on his face: "Your Highness is too humble. Your archery skills have always been better than mine. How come I didn't see your prey?"

I want to see, what can you compare with me?

The emperor was the first to speak with a smile: "The eldest prince has always been very good at riding and shooting, but the crown prince is slightly better than you."

Xiao Yunxuan was stunned for a moment, thinking that he had heard wrongly. Xiao Jinyan had no chance of hunting at all, so how could he be slightly better than him?

"Where is the prince's prey?"

Xiao Jinyan turned his head to look at the two horses beside him and said calmly, "Brother, over there."

"Xiao Yunxuan followed Xiao Jinyan's line of sight and saw two horses with prey hanging on their backs. He was filled with disbelief. How could this be possible?

He clearly sent a lot of people to drive away the prey wherever Xiao Jinyan went. How could Xiao Jinyan have the chance to hunt?

The other princes returned one after another, and they all brought back a lot of prey, but none of them had as much as Xiao Jinyan.

The emperor was in a good mood, and when the princes returned, the first thing he did was praise Xiao Jinyan.

"I have always been optimistic about the prince's archery skills, and he did not disappoint me. On the first day of hunting, the prince won and received a reward."

Xiao Jinyan stepped forward and knelt down to thank him, "Thank you, father."

In order to celebrate the autumn hunting, a bonfire party was held in the evening. Several bonfires were built on the empty ground, and the prey caught that day was roasted on the bonfires.

Xiao Jinyan brought Chang Liangdi and Shen Chuwei to participate.

Chang Liangdi locked herself in the tent today. She was so angry that she almost wanted to go back to her aunt to complain. But after calming down, she felt unwilling to do so.

If she just left like this, wouldn't it be a good thing for Shen Chuwei?

So she stayed. Her mother once said that it is a man's nature to be lustful. As long as she uses some tricks, men will fall at her feet.

The prince is also a man, and as a man he cannot resist temptation.

Chang Liangdi dressed up beautifully today, applying rouge and powder in turn, and specially painted the same flower ornaments as Shen Chuwei.

Chang Liangdi picked up the wine pot with her hands painted with kohlrabi and said softly, "Your Highness, I will pour you some wine."

Xiao Jinyan turned his head to look at Shen Chuwei and saw that she was staring at the venison on the rack above the fire. Compared to Chang Liangdi's attentiveness, her attention was all on eating.

After pouring the wine, Chang Liangdi found that Xiao Jinyan was looking sideways at Shen Chuwei. She held the wine pot tightly and sat down slowly.

When the eunuch cut a piece of venison and put it in the bowl in front of the prince, Xiao Jinyan noticed that Shen Chuwei was looking over and licking her lips...

He calmly picked up the venison in front of him and placed it in front of Shen Chuwei, saying, "I have no appetite, you eat it for me."

Shen Chuwei's eyes lit up, "Yes, Your Highness."

After saying that, he grasped the chopsticks tightly and couldn't wait to pick up a piece and put it into his mouth to eat. It must be said that the roasted venison was also very fragrant.

Xiao Jinyan looked at Shen Chuwei eating with a satisfied look on her face, which was rarely seen in the palace.

Chang Liangdi watched Xiao Jinyan give all the venison to Shen Chuwei, without remembering at all that she, the Liangdi, was still sitting next to him.

Isn’t Shen Chuwei just a straw bag beauty?

What's so worthy of Xiao Jinyan's attention to her?

The fifth prince Xiao Che smiled and stepped forward to congratulate him: "Congratulations to the Crown Prince for coming first on the first day of hunting. You make your younger brother feel ashamed."

Xiao Jinyan looked at Xiao Che and calmly replied, "Fifth brother is too modest."

Other princes also came to congratulate.

Xiao Jinyan looked at the princes in front of him who called themselves brothers, and responded to them one by one calmly.

But he didn't find out who was the mastermind behind the attack in his tent.

Xiao Jinyan put down his wine glass, glanced at Shen Chuwei who was still eating and drinking with her head down, and walked away.

After eating and drinking, Shen Chuwei glanced around and found that Xiao Jinyan and Chang Liangdi were gone.

I guess it was while she was eating meat that the two of them reconciled and went back together.

Shen Chuwei touched her belly and walked back slowly. Halfway there, she heard someone calling her.

"Shen Fengyi."

The voice was so familiar that even without turning around she knew it was Xiao Jinyan calling her.
