Winter hunting is a royal affair.
Since Bai Yanyan was going, the emperor also invited the other three families.
The only people from the Hua family were Hua Mingyue and Hua Dashao, so they naturally didn't go. Someone from the Gu family came, and someone from the Situ family also came. Bai Yanyan thought it was Situ Yan who wanted to ask about her brother's situation.
But the one who went there was Situ Jiajia.
After knowing the list of people going, Bai Yanyan stayed in the Four-Leaf Alchemy Pavilion before leaving, refining the beauty cream all night long, and then instructed Liu San to help keep an eye on Miss Situ's situation. She then set off the next day.
Bai Tianhao was worried about her and wanted Ye Qing to accompany her, but Bai Yanyan refused.
Just kidding, it’s better to go alone, so that it’s more convenient to do bad things!
-
Yuliu Mountain is more than a day's journey away from the imperial city.
The group set off in great fanfare. Bai Yanyan saw Shen Qingqing and kindly invited her, "Sister, you must be so lonely. Do you want to ride in the carriage with us?"
Bai Yanyan didn't even look at Shen Qingqing, but Xuanyuan Yue's face darkened.
"Qingqing, what did you call her just now?! She is Bai Yanyan?!"
Did she hear it right? This damn woman is Bai Yanyan?!
Is it that fat, ugly loser Bai Yanyan?! How is this possible!
She hadn't seen Bai Yanyan for only half a year. How could Bai Yanyan become so beautiful? And...that woman was definitely not a loser! She was a mid-second-grade cultivator, but she was no match for her. How could she be a loser? She was definitely not Bai Yanyan.
"She is my sister."
"As you know, the Bai family only has her as a daughter. Uncle Bai is a protective person and loves her very much, so he found many elixirs for her to change her appearance. As for her ability to practice..."
After a pause, Shen Qingqing sighed, "Ayue, did you see that? The red chicken in her arms is actually the mythical beast Suzaku. The reason why my sister can practice cultivation is because she has a contract with this Suzaku."
The mythical beast Suzaku? !
Xuanyuan Yue's eyes suddenly lit up.
The eighth-rank Snow Saint Lion was very powerful and rare, but compared to the divine beasts, the Snow Saint Lion was trash, especially since she had gone to the Five Elements Academy to broaden her horizons and knew more about the preciousness of divine beasts. This was the Vermillion Bird. If she had the Vermillion Bird, then... she would definitely be more favored than her cousin.
"The Suzaku was originally discovered by your brother and I. We were also the ones who opened its nest. We almost contracted it, but Bai Yanyan snatched it away unexpectedly. Uncle Bai was protecting Bai Yanyan, so I had no choice but to give it to her."
"Why should we give in? How can that useless Bai Yanyan be worthy of owning a divine beast like the Vermillion Bird? Besides, you and my brother were the first to discover this beast. It originally belonged to us!"
Xuanyuan Yue said, "Qingqing, don't worry. When we get to Yuliu Mountain, I'll take the Vermillion Bird back. Also... I'll make Bai Yanyan pay you back a hundredfold for the bullying she did to you!"
Bai Yanyan was unaware of their plan. She looked at Princess Ruyue who had suddenly come running over and smiled lovingly, "Aren't you afraid that the princess will scold you for sneaking over here like this?"
"I'm not afraid."
Xiao Nanyue held Chiyu in her arms, looking at it again and again, examining it again and again, and then said, "Yanyan, this is the young cub of a divine beast, right? This divine beast is rarely seen in a thousand years. Why don't you make a contract with it?"
"You can't make a contract with it? I happened to learn animal taming, I can help you."
Although she is not very strong, her talent for taming animals is still very impressive in Wuyun Academy.
"No, it and I are friends, no contract is needed."
"Friend?" Xiao Nanyue was stunned for a moment, looking at the big chicken eating the spirit stone in her arms. After a while, she smiled brightly, "I knew you were the best, completely different from Shen Qingqing."
When she heard Chu Mo say that Uncle Bai brought back a daughter from outside, she was worried that it might be another Shen Qingqing, but now it seems that is not the case at all.
"Do you really dislike Shen Qingqing?"
"Well, I don't like it."
Xiao Nanyue shook her head. "When Shen Qingqing was brought back from outside by Uncle Bai, we were all very kind to her. I felt sorry for her so I gave her all the delicious and fun things. But Shen Qingqing pretended to be nice to us, but in reality, she not only despised us, but also spoke ill of us to Uncle Bai."
Shen Qingqing despised them and kept pestering Uncle Bai, even mocking them.
They were not stupid and would not try to please Shen Qingqing, so they ignored her, especially when Si Fei found out that Shen Qingqing had done something wrong. In order to prevent Si Fei from telling anyone about it, she drugged Si Fei and tried to accuse him of molesting her.
"Anyway, Shen Qingqing and Xuanyuan Yue definitely have bad intentions. When you get to Yuliu Mountain, just follow me and ignore them. If they give you any trouble, remember to tell me and I'll teach them a lesson."
Bai Yanyan responded with a smile, then looked outside with a sly smile in her eyes.
It's hard to say who bullies whom.
Yuliu Mountain had been cleared some time ago, and the general specially checked the surrounding area to make sure there was no danger. They rested for a night and started the next day.
First, show everyone's skills.
When Bai Yanyan came over, she saw Xiao Nanyue wearing clean and neat clothes, with her long black hair tied up high. She was standing in front of everyone with a longbow in her hand, shooting at a target not far away.
Right in the heart.
"pretty."
"She is truly worthy of being Princess Ruyue, a master of both civil and military skills."
"Besides, she is at the middle stage of the third rank. Looking across the entire Qingyou Nation, she is the only one with such high talent."
"Yes, she is beautiful and powerful. I don't know which gentleman she will marry in the end."
"If nothing had happened to the Crown Prince, Princess Ruyue, who was so powerful, should have married him and become his consort, the future queen. But something happened to the Crown Prince. Alas, what a pity."
"However, the prince's health has improved recently. However, his cultivation is still wasted."
Many ministers sighed. Bai Yanyan glanced at them and finally her eyes fell on Xiao Nanyue. Seeing her hit the bull's eye again handsomely, she just thought that Xiao Nanyue was too handsome, just like Situ Yan, definitely handsome.
"Ruyue is still so outstanding."
Even Emperor Yongding looked at Xiao Nanyue with a little more approval.
Xuanyuan Yue curled her lips. Her archery skills were not as good as her cousin's. Even if she went out to shoot arrows, her father would not praise her. However... Xuanyuan Yue's eyes turned and fell on Bai Yanyan, and then she said:
"I've heard that Miss Bai grew up in a small mountain village. She should be very familiar with hunting and archery. I wonder if Miss Bai could show off her skills."
