Chapter 87: Praise

After Su Jingyao entered the carriage, her dignified smile slowly faded, and she instantly became much more relaxed.

There was still a smile on her face as she looked at Jun Zechen intently.

"Your Majesty seems very different today?"

As he spoke, his eyes sparkled with curiosity.

Jun Zechen smiled and asked with interest: "What's the difference?"

After hearing this, Su Jingyao began to act serious and looked at him carefully.

From the drooping ink-like hair, to the handsome sword-like eyebrows, to the deep star-like eyes, and the angular and three-dimensional outline.

I have to sigh, he is worthy of being the male protagonist of the novel. Just relying on this face, he is enough to drive crazy the women in the harem who rarely see men in their daily lives.

They were vying for his favor and affection.

"Your Majesty's face today is as beautiful as the morning glow, and your presence is as majestic as a dragon breaking through the sea of ​​clouds. You are truly extremely handsome and majestic."

Su Jingyao's words of praise for him were full of sincerity, and her watery eyes were filled with deep admiration and appreciation.

Her eyes were firmly fixed on Jun Zechen.

Jun Zechen particularly liked this kind of look from her. In the past, he didn't like people staring at his appearance, so he would often use his majestic aura to shock others.

However, the more Jun Zechen got along with her, the more he realized that this woman looked at him differently every time he dressed differently.

So today he deliberately did not tie up all his black hair, but in order to make himself look more dignified, he still chose to wear a dark black dragon robe.

It is said that "women dress up to please themselves", but Jun Zechen feels that he is now a "man who dresses up for the one he loves".

"Does Yaoyao like it?"

"like!"

She said whatever he liked to hear.

Jun Zechen stretched out his hand and hugged Su Jingyao who was sitting next to him, and his eyes fell on her blue-green dress again.

After thinking for a moment, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Yaoyao today looks like a lotus hidden in the summer, and her demeanor is like a colorful cloud floating in the air. She is truly an immortal with extraordinary appearance and a myriad of demeanor."

Su Jingyao raised her eyebrows slightly at Jun Zechen and said coquettishly, "Your Majesty, why do you always imitate me?"

"Because I have been with Yaoyao for a long time, I know what praise is."

Jun Zechen smiled and said that every time she praised him, he was happy, and her compliments were always different. He was not as good at complimenting as she was, but fortunately he had good learning ability.

After coming to ancient times, Su Jingyao read a lot of books, and naturally she likes people who understand her.

And Jun Zechen really lived up to his talent. Not only was he able to understand what she said, but he was also able to compliment her so cleverly in return.

Her face was filled with satisfaction, and her arms gently and tightly embraced Jun Zechen's waist with a bit of attachment.

Then, she raised her head slightly and asked softly, "Your Majesty, what is the most ferocious beast in Chunshu Pass?"

There was a hint of anticipation on her pretty face at this moment.

"Black bear or cheetah."

Hearing this, Su Jingyao couldn't help but frown, seeming a little worried, "Isn't it very dangerous inside Chunshou Pass?"

Seeing this, Jun Zechen couldn't help but chuckle, with a hint of calmness and confidence in his laughter.

"Black bears and cheetahs are deep in the forest. When the late emperor was alive, I always won the spring hunt every year. If I want to win, I must at least hunt a black bear or a cheetah."

As he said these words, there was a hint of pride on his face.

Su Jingyao nodded obediently, her eyes full of admiration, "Your Majesty is so amazing."

Along the way, Su Jingyao and Jun Zechen were chatting flirtatiously, and their emotions were at their highest level.

The entire spring hunt would last for five days, and the length of time was also determined by the court officials.

On the first day, they led a large force to Chunshou Pass, where there was a grand departure ceremony. That is, they were now marching through the imperial city in a mighty manner, and after arriving at Chunshou Pass, they would set up camp and familiarize themselves with the surrounding environment.

The sacrificial ceremony will be held on the morning of the second day. Su Jingyao, as the imperial concubine, will accompany Jun Zechen to participate. Afterwards, Jun Zechen will lead a small group of elites for a small-scale exploratory hunt.

On the third day, a large-scale hunting activity was carried out. The teams dispersed to different areas of the hunting grounds and launched a fierce chase. In the evening, a bonfire dinner was held to share the hunting results and reward everyone.

On the fourth day, hunting continued and competitions were added, such as horse riding and archery. The emperor would reward those who performed well.

On the fifth day, they packed up and returned to the imperial city with their prey and glory. The spring hunt that lasted for several days also demonstrated the prosperity and strength of the kingdom.

Three years ago, my elder brother won the third place in the imperial examination with his talent and has been working in the Hanlin Academy ever since.

Generally speaking, being able to work in the Hanlin Academy is already a very good position.

My brother is almost the same age as Jun Zechen. If he wants to make outstanding achievements and reach the level of his father in the future, he will have to rely on Jun Zechen's support.

However, given the current situation, for Jun Zechen, his father's official position is already high enough.

If I promote my brother again at this time, will it affect Jun Zechen's balance in the court?

This is also the reason why Su Jingyao has never mentioned her brother in front of Jun Zechen.

Jun Zechen is the emperor, so he naturally has many more thoughts and concerns than her. She is not very proficient in state affairs, and can only roughly analyze some superficial principles.

If she rashly mentioned her brother in front of Jun Zechen, she was afraid that she would say something wrong and make Jun Zechen suspicious.

This would be detrimental to my brother and even the entire Su family.

Su Jingyao was full of thoughts, and suddenly a gleam of light flashed in her eyes.

Then she looked at Jun Zechen with a slightly flattering look on her face and sparkling eyes.

"I want a lively white Angora rabbit."

Jun Zechen was stunned when he heard it, and then a playful expression appeared on his face.

"Yaoyao, I'm going hunting, and none of my prey are alive and kicking."

"When I was still in the palace, my brother brought me a long-haired rabbit when he first participated in the spring hunt. I even raised it for a year. Why can't Your Majesty have one too?"

Su Jingyao pouted slightly, with a look of dissatisfaction on her face.

Jun Zechen couldn't help but frown. There were quite a few rabbits in the dense forest of Chunshou Pass, but the wild rabbits were usually very strong, and most of them were gray and brown in color.

White rabbits are generally domesticated, let alone white Angora rabbits.

He had been hunting in Chunshouguan for so many years, but he had never encountered this before.

Jun Zechen narrowed her eyes slightly, remembering that her brother Su Jingxuan was working in the Hanlin Academy.

He pondered to himself.

I don’t know how good Su Jingxuan’s riding skills are, but I think they are not very good, otherwise why did he only bring back a white angora rabbit for her?

Summon Su Jingxuan later and ask him whether he found the rabbit in Chunshou Pass or bought it in the market on the way back.

Yaoyao doesn't like many things, but he still wants to give her everything she likes as much as possible.

Moreover, her temper was getting worse and worse. If he didn't send her off, he would find it hard to bear when she got angry.

"Please pay close attention to Yaoyao when I go hunting. If I really see a rabbit like this, I will definitely bring it back to Yaoyao." Jun Zechen said in a gentle voice.

Su Jingyao leaned on him, a touching smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and then nodded with satisfaction.
