"Do you remember what big brother said before he left?" Mu Yushang said in a serious tone.
The uncles looked at each other, thought of the miserable condition of Mu Lingjiu's mother, and immediately decided to take Mu Lingjiu to Bai Po for a good education!
The next morning, Mu Lingjiu was sent to Bai Po, where she told many stories about women who were abandoned and sold by unfaithful men.
Some of the stories were so tragic that Mu Lingjiu's eyes were red when she heard them.
Seeing that Mu Lingjiu was moved, Bai Po took this opportunity to say:
"So, it's best for women today to be independent and not think about finding a husband. Men can't protect you, especially if you have a family like you. You can keep a male lover, but you can't be affectionate with him!"
"Yes, that makes sense." Mu Lingjiu nodded seriously.
Seeing that Mu Lingjiu was so considerate and patient in listening to her lectures, Bai Po's opinion of her rose rapidly, and she liked her more and more.
No one has ever listened to her stories as attentively as Mu Lingjiu!
It was already afternoon when we left Bai Po's place. Several uncles took a beast cart to pick up Mu Lingjiu.
"Jiu'er, what did you learn from Bai Po?" Mu Yushang asked.
"You can't trust men." Mu Lingjiu said.
"Yes, yes, yes." Several uncles were very pleased.
Seeing the effect, the uncles sent Mu Lingjiu to attend classes for several days in a row. At this time, Mu Lingjiu had a look of world-weariness on his face and even disliked male dogs.
A few days later, the palace specially sent Mu Lingjiu an invitation to the Chudu Hunting Ground a few days later.
The eunuch who came was very pompous, with an arrogant and oppressive look on his face.
"This invitation was specially left for Miss Mu by His Majesty out of consideration for the late general. Please don't let His Majesty's kindness go to waste, Miss Mu."
These words sounded like concern, but in fact they were a warning, warning Mu Lingjiu to go.
However, the entire Chu State knew that Mu Lingjiu was disabled, and did not know that she had already recovered. How could she participate in the hunt?
Isn't this obviously sending Mu Lingjiu to his death?
The Emperor of Chu was almost overwhelmed with the desire to kill Mu Lingjiu.
Mu Yufeng took a step forward and said coldly:
"Tell His Majesty that we appreciate your kindness, but our Jiu'er is not feeling well, so we won't be going."
The eunuch's face immediately turned cold, "Miss Mu, are you going to disobey the imperial order?"
Mu Yufeng put his hand on the knife and was about to take action.
"I'll go." Mu Lingjiu took the invitation.
The eunuch then said with a forced smile, "Miss Mu is a smart person."
After saying this, he arrogantly led the group of people from the palace away.
By the time everyone left, the uncles were already extremely angry.
"The Emperor of Chu is still the same villain as always." Mu Yushang gritted his teeth, and the folding fan in his hand creaked.
"He has always been like this, otherwise why would Dad retire from officialdom after he ascended the throne. Only our silly sister was fooled into fighting for him." Mu Yuzhi's gentle face was cold.
"However..." Mu Yushang frowned, "The King of Chu knows that Sixth Sister has some colleagues and friends in the court, so it's difficult to take action directly. He can only use covert means. You have to be more careful these days."
"The hunting battle is extremely dangerous, so I'll go and protect Jiuer in secret." Mu Yufeng said.
"Don't forget, there is an age limit for the hunting competition, you can't enter." Mu Yushang reminded.
Mu Yufeng, "..."
Mu Lingjiu wasn't worried. "Since there's an age limit, then cultivators over thirty can't enter. Those under thirty probably won't have much higher cultivation. Uncles, don't worry. I'll take care of myself."
Several uncles agreed with this point, because in the State of Chu there were very few cultivators who could reach the fifth level of spiritual master before the age of thirty, and Mu Lingjiu had already reached the fifth level of spiritual master.
Mu Lingjiu originally planned to take the members of the Beast Tribe to participate in the hunt. This would also be her first battle after her rebirth.
Mu Lingjiu practiced for the next few days. Due to the abundant resources, Mu Lingjiu easily improved his cultivation to the sixth level of spiritual master. He then went to the Beast Department to arrange the action targets for his teammates.
In order to complete the mission of the Talent Hall, Mu Linghuang devoted herself to cultivation during this period. On the eve of the hunting competition, her cultivation reached the fifth level of spiritual master.
Mu Linghuang's breakthrough filled the royal family with joy. She was the first person since Mu Jinyi to reach the fifth level of the Spirit Stone realm at the age of eighteen. Entry into the Talent Palace was practically a certainty, and in the future, she might even join a powerful sect in the Nine Provinces!
Therefore, many people were trying to curry favor with the Second Prince's Mansion, and for a time the Second Prince's Mansion was the most popular.
The fifth day of February is the day when the hunting competition begins.
On the outskirts of Chu City, animal carts and groups of people stopped at the entrance to the endless Sunset Mountains.
Emperor Chu personally came to the Sunset Mountains to lift the ban, and any young people under the age of 30 can enter the Sunset Mountains to seek opportunities and hunt monsters.
The Second Prince and Mu Linghuang were accompanied by a large number of children from prominent Chu families, and they became the focus of everyone's attention.
There are also a few children of officials on the eldest prince's side, but their number is far less than that of the second prince's side.
Obviously, most people think that the second prince has more potential to become the future emperor of Chu.
Upon seeing this, Imperial Noble Consort Shuxian said to the Emperor of Chu beside her:
"Our Heng'er is becoming more and more popular."
The Emperor of Chu nodded, feeling very pleased. He had high hopes for the Second Prince, as he was the son of his favorite Imperial Concubine.
The Imperial Concubine took this opportunity to say, "Your Majesty, if Huang'er can successfully enter the Talent Palace after this hunt, shouldn't we consider their future?"
This was a reminder to the King of Chu to appoint a crown prince as soon as possible.
The Emperor of Chu was more inclined towards the Second Prince, and he patted the Imperial Concubine's hand soothingly.
"Don't worry, after this hunt, this emperor will reward you according to your merits."
The Imperial Concubine curled her lips into a smile and glanced at the Queen with pride.
The queen next to them heard the conversation between the two and did not show any abnormality on her face, as if she did not understand the underlying meaning of their words.
She only looked at the eldest prince not far away and instructed the maid beside her:
"Tell Bai'er not to rush into anything, even if he doesn't kill anything."
The Imperial Concubine beside him laughed sweetly, "Yes, the eldest prince's talent is mediocre, so it doesn't matter if he can't be hunted. Saving his life is more important."
The Queen said nothing more, but smiled and took a bite of the pear blossom cake from the maid's plate. "Would your Imperial Concubine like some? I'll give you some."
The Royal Concubine's expression changed, and she said with a forced smile, "I won't eat it."
The Queen sighed, looked off into the distance, and said with a smile, "Isn't that Miss Mu? Why did the Emperor invite her here?"
The Emperor of Chu had a stern look in his eyes and did not answer the Queen's words. He looked at Mu Lingjiu with a cold and murderous look.
Mu Lingjiu's existence is a stain on the Second Prince and also on the royal family. It would be best to erase her.
Mu Lingjiu was dressed in black and had a cold expression, which attracted many people's attention.
When they saw it was her, they started talking again.
"What is she doing here? She's useless."
"Are you here to die?"
"He was a genius in the past, but now he's overestimating himself!"
