Chapter 583 Hunting
The Emperor comes hunting.
Although the emperor didn't particularly like this activity, he was a man after all.
Mainly because the princes were overjoyed, especially the Sixth Prince.
He probably inherited some of the murderous spirit of the Shen family men, and he likes riding horses and shooting arrows the most.
The young masters of the royal family were also happy. There were more than 40 teenagers in the group.
There are also girls who are about to take their turn, such as the second princess and several princesses.
Qi Yi established a rule that whoever caught the most prey would receive a reward.
So everyone dispersed, including the emperor himself.
However, the emperor said he would not participate in this and just wanted to have fun.
There is no way to participate. Even if I participate, no one would be proud to be more powerful than the emperor, right?
The emperor played for a while, caught only a few rabbits, and then came out of the woods.
He knows he is not good at it and he won't try to deceive the world.
It doesn't matter whether a good emperor can hunt or not.
Returning to the shed where the concubines were sitting, Shen Chuliu asked with a smile, "How did the emperor harvest?"
"I am not good at riding and shooting, so I am afraid I can only give extra food to my concubines." The emperor smiled and made a tea.
Shen Chuliu asked people to change the emperor's clothes. There was naturally an enclosed area at the back where people could change clothes and wash their hands.
When I came out again, lunch had already been prepared outside, mainly barbecue.
Hunting.
Shen Chuliu was the most senior person, so he was in charge and directed everyone to do their work.
Several princesses also came to help, and naturally the second prince's wife and the third prince's wife also came to help.
By the time everyone came out of the woods one after another, the emperor and his entourage had already had lunch.
Of course, today was just a barbecue, and everyone was having so much fun hunting that no one wanted to come out.
In addition to the nobles, many guards also went in, of course for protection, and some of them went in person.
For example, Shen Qingling and Yu Chan both went in.
Of course, if they went hunting, they would be bullying this group of people, so they were just doing it for the sake of showing their gratitude, and their main purpose was to protect the princes.
No matter how powerful the Sixth Prince was, it was impossible for him to really take the first place. In the end, the first place was a young guard.
They hunted a lot of prey and even caught a little rabbit alive, which the second princess took away and gave to Princess Rongning.
The guard was so embarrassed by the second princess's behavior of asking for a rabbit.
The second princess was amused: "Why are you shy? You can get a wife with just a rabbit. Here you go!"
The second princess meant that if she gave him the money, he could marry a wife.
It means giving more.
But these words made the little guard even more embarrassed, as he successfully misunderstood.
So this small misunderstanding turned into a big event in the future. Of course, we won’t talk about it for now.
The princes were exhausted. Even learning to ride a horse was not as tiring as hunting.
The Sixth Prince lay in front of Shen Chuliu, unable to speak a word. He just drank water because he was thirsty.
Shen Chuliu smiled: "How many prey did you kill?"
The Sixth Prince shook his head and said he didn’t know. He certainly didn’t know. Sometimes the prey was not dead when he was shot, and it ran away with the arrow.
You have to look for it slowly.
"Will we fight again tomorrow?" Shen Chuliu asked again.
The Sixth Prince nodded very firmly.
Shen Chuliu shook her head: "Then you are still not tired."
"It's tiring, but also fun." The Sixth Prince finally finished drinking most of the water: "Mom, I'm hungry."
"Go eat." Shen Chuliu pushed him: "You're so big now, you want me to feed you?"
The Sixth Prince had no choice but to walk away dragging his legs. He was really tired.
The hunting on the first day ended successfully. The young guard got the money from the second princess to buy rabbits and also won a prize from the emperor.
The emperor rewarded him with a sword and some treasures.
This guard is a guard in the palace. Although there are guards in the palace who carry swords, not all of them carry swords. Some of them carry swords.
This young guard was wearing a sword. He learned how to use the sword.
"Whose child is this?" asked Concubine Jing.
The emperor couldn't remember, so Yu Chan hurriedly replied, "Your Majesty, his name is Chu Gu, and his ancestors were military generals, but they had long fallen on hard times. His father was once a guard beside the previous emperor, and later he also entered the palace as a guard. Although his family background is not good, this child is very good at martial arts."
"He looks good and is young and promising." Shen Chuliu smiled.
It should be so in Zen.
After turning his back to Yu Chan, the emperor asked, "My beloved concubine, do you think I am old?"
Shen Chuliu looked at the emperor as if he had seen a ghost: "Your Majesty, please don't tell me you are jealous."
The emperor was just joking at first, but now he laughed: "Why, are you interested in this Chu Gu? Is there a girl of marriageable age in the Shen family?"
"In the eyes of the emperor, am I still a matchmaker?" Shen Chuliu was speechless.
Qi Yixiu laughed again, well, that’s not the case.
She doesn't like to meddle in other people's business.
Of course, this was just gossip between the emperor and his concubines, and that was it.
When they returned to the palace that night, the princes were so exhausted that they had to ask the eunuchs for massage, otherwise none of them would be able to get up the next day.
So the area where the princes lived was filled with the princes' screams.
Nothing else, just massage, stretching, it hurts! The emperor laughed when he heard it: "These guys."
But the child recovered quickly and was full of life again early the next morning.
The emperor is not going today, so he will go and play with the children.
They simply set up the game again, offering a prize every day, and whoever wins in the end takes all.
What else can I say? Let’s do it!
The princes are also very cunning. They don't allow the guards to join the battle today. They also know that they can't beat the guards.
In the shed, the second princess did not go today, but all the princesses, the daughters of the royal family, the girls from the ministers' families were there, as well as the boys who were too young to leave.
We gathered together and laughed, and were happier than yesterday.
That's what happens when the adults are not around.
In the palace, Shen Chuliu was also tired today and got up late.
Of course, she said yesterday that no one was allowed to pay their respects.
The people who came with him originally wanted to please Concubine Jing, but now they dare not come.
When I get up and have nothing to do, I go for a walk.
At noon, someone came from the palace and all the news from the palace came.
It’s not a big deal, but the message still needs to be passed on every few days.
"This Mei Xiuyi is also interesting. She actually handed the seventh princess over to Yan Zhaoyuan to take care of." Chi Su said.
"These two people are more shrewd than the other. They are naturally good at superficial work. But Mei Xiuyi is already pregnant with her second child, and Yan Zhaoyuan is not pregnant yet. I wonder what she feels in her heart." Shen Chuliu said.
"Now it seems that Concubine Yi is an honest person." Zhemei said.
"But an honest man can't get ahead. Ever since Concubine Yi had a miscarriage, do you think the Emperor will still go there?" Chi Su said.
Zhemei nodded, this was also true.
"By the way, I see that Concubine Ning is trying to win over Mei Baolin?" Zhemei suddenly said.
"Hmm? What do you mean?"
"I took care of her when she was in the palace. Now that she is in the temporary palace, even though she is not paying respects, Mei Baolin still went to see Concubine Ning."
"That's right. Mei Baolin is good-looking, so it's normal for Concubine Ning to have some thoughts." Shen Chuliu smiled: "After all, she has a son, so it's different."
