Chapter 102: Troubles of the Minor
The afternoon warm-up match ended quickly.
The highly entertaining warm-up match heated up the atmosphere and got off to a good start.
We will form a team for tomorrow's hunting competition before it's over, and we will go into the mountains to hunt tomorrow.
I heard that this time the emperor will personally lead people into the mountains to hunt. Of course, they are not participating in the competition, but just hunting in an absolutely safe place and experiencing the fun of hunting.
However, the emperor has gone out hunting, and it would be shameful if the hunting team could not even match his performance.
After the warm-up match, the emperor also had someone raise the prizes for this royal hunt.
As the red cloth was lifted, a jade screen more than one meter tall was revealed.
The entire screen is made of flawless old pit glass, which is crystal clear and translucent, making people unable to take their eyes away.
Even the knowledgeable nobles in the capital city were dazzled and exclaimed "Wow".
The emperor was very satisfied with everyone's reaction. He smiled and said, "This jade screen is my reward to the warriors who finally won the victory. It was a tribute from Siam this year. There are three in total.
Sharing happiness with others is worse than enjoying it alone. I will give one to reward the most powerful warrior in our Dayong Kingdom!
My good boys, show us your best skills! ”
A cheer loud enough to shake the sky erupted in the arena. With the emperor's words, the hunting competition officially began.
Wen Ling's eyes lit up when she saw the jade screen. Such a large and complete jade is really rare in the world.
But it was just a glimpse and pure appreciation. She was not that interested in owning these things, just looking at them was enough.
After watching the warm-up match in the afternoon, everyone went back to change clothes and there was a bonfire party in the evening.
Everyone gathered around the fire to eat meat grilled by the royal chef, and the men also drank wine.
During a bonfire party, there aren't so many strict rules. Everyone is very free, and as long as men and women don't do anything out of line, no one will say anything if they walk around together.
Therefore, this bonfire party is the most lively and most anticipated part of the Imperial City Hunt.
After each year, several couples would form relationships in Beijing because of this event.
Wen Ling was dragged by several ladies to walk and chat, and her pace was slow. When she returned to the tent, Gu Chenran had already changed his clothes.
This was the first time the two met after chatting early in the morning for a whole day.
Wen Ling remembered that Gu Chenran seemed angry in the morning. Before Gu Chenran could speak, she spoke first: "Well, I thought about it carefully. You men have normal physiological needs. It is normal for you to want to have children to carry on the family line when you are old. It is too much for me to be direct with you in this regard.
And in fact, if you are dissatisfied with me, you can tell me, we can discuss it.
This way, if you really meet a girl you like from now on, you can tell me directly.
At that time, I can move directly from your palace to the suburban villa. If you have any problems, come to the villa to find me. We can solve whatever problems we encounter.
In this way, we can cooperate again without affecting each other. What do you think? ”
Wen Ling felt that her entire set of ideas was very humane and considerate of Gu Chenran.
Unexpectedly, the more Gu Chenran listened, the darker his face became, and his hands hanging on both sides were clenched into fists.
He suddenly asked Wen Ling: "Why do you keep asking me to find another woman to have children when we are husband and wife?"
This angry question made Wen Ling confused.
She asked even more curiously, "Aren't we just husband and wife in name only? Didn't we agree on this at the time? You didn't tell me that you wanted to be my real husband and wife!"
Gu Chenran choked, and he suddenly realized where the problem lay.
He suddenly gave Wen Ling a weak smile like a deflated ball: "You are right, I forgot about it, but you don't have to talk about it anymore, because I won't have another girl I like, and I don't plan to have children.
Just live in the palace with peace of mind. I have said that the power to manage the palace has been handed over to you. You are the mistress of the palace. You can do whatever you want. Don't always think about moving out. ”
Wen Ling had another question. She tilted her head and asked, "Why don't you have a girl you like? I tell you, don't be too pessimistic. The evil in your body can be driven out, and then you can live like a normal person.
A person's life is very long, so don't say anything so early, you still have to be full of hope for the future of your life! ”
Wen Ling felt that she had really used up all her patience, and Gu Chenran was her long-term partner.
The reason she can now stabilize her soul and steadily improve her cultivation is because Gu Chenran's True Dragon Purple Qi is protecting her.
Wen Ling still understands the principle of doing good for others and helping them solve their problems.
But Gu Chenran's head started buzzing as Wen Ling spoke.
Why did he feel more upset the more Wen Ling told him that he would fall in love with someone else?
Gu Chenran finally raised his hands in surrender: "Stop, stop, stop, Ah Ling is right, you are really right, but I also promise you that I dare not say anything about the future. Before I get rid of my evil heart, I will not fall in love with any girl, and I will not have any plans to have children. Is that okay?"
Wen Ling approached Gu Chenren and asked suspiciously, "So you're really not angry with me, right? I have a very good temper. If you have any ideas, you must communicate with me as soon as possible. Don't keep them in your heart, okay?"
She leaned very close, and her warm breath even brushed Gu Chenran's chin when she spoke. Her eyes fluttered, and her eyelashes were thick and straight, like a small brush, brushing directly on Gu Chenran's heart.
Gu Chenran felt like his heart skipped a beat and his ears felt a little hot.
He stretched out his hand and covered Wen Ling's head, moving her head away abruptly: "I'm not angry. How can you tell that I'm angry? Don't make blind guesses."
"I'm glad you're not angry. I thought you were angry with me because you didn't ride in the same carriage with me and you hid from me after coming to the tent!" Wen Ling breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Chenran: “…”
How should I put it? This is not wrong. He was indeed angry at that time...
But looking at Wen Ling's heartless look, he didn't know how to say it.
He finally realized that he was just worrying over nothing. Wen Ling was just like a pure and innocent child, and had no idea about relationships between men and women!
