Qu Li once again caught Rong Yehua's complicated look and raised the end of his eyebrows slightly.
Xiao Xian's eyebrows were sharp and he stared at Ji Mingshan coldly, then clasped his hands together.
"Your Majesty, an official requires more than mere ability! A poor upbringing indicates that Lord Ji's character is flawed! Since ancient times, the Minister of Personnel must have a good character, so that he can fairly and objectively select capable people for Your Majesty. Now it seems that Lord Ji is simply not suited to stay in the Ministry of Personnel! He is certainly not qualified for the position of Minister of Personnel!"
When Emperor Kangdi saw the papers that Qu Li gave him, he had already thought about deposing Ji Mingshan.
At this moment, he didn't even think about it and asked Eunuch Fu to have someone draft the imperial edict.
Rong Yehua bid farewell to Emperor Kang and before leaving the palace, he looked deeply at Xiao Xian.
There was always a smile on Qu Li's lips, and his eyes were full of amusement.
The two had had an unpleasant argument in the carriage before. Although Xiao Xian felt that she was a little strange, he didn't dare to ask anything.
The fall of the Ji family did not cause any waves in the capital, and the royal hunt officially began.
When Qu Li came out in a tight outfit, he blinded everyone's eyes.
"Seventh cousin?!"
Changle has always known that Qu Li is pretty, but she never expected that she would not only look pretty in a tight outfit, but also exude a heroic spirit.
She walked forward and took her arm, nuzzling Qu Li's shoulder like a puppy, "I wish I were a man!"
Qu Li couldn't help laughing and reached out to touch her forehead.
"You'll just make fun of me!"
Changle's eyes widened, her cheeks puffed out. "Qu Wenzhao, tell me the truth, isn't Seventh Cousin-in-law particularly pretty?"
If Qu Li had not deliberately dressed herself up to look like a half-human, half-ghost, she would definitely have been one of the four beauties in the capital.
Qu Wenzhao nodded heavily, "Yes, the eldest sister is the prettiest!"
"Look? Even if I make fun of you, can Qu Wenzhao still make fun of you?"
Qu Li smiled.
The two walked out of Wenzhaoyuan.
The gate of the courtyard opposite also opened. When Xiao Xian saw Qu Li, his eyes were shocked.
Qu Li ignored the burning gaze and said to Chang Le calmly, "Get in the carriage!"
After getting in the car, Changle looked at Xiao Xian's desolate figure and sighed again.
"By the way, Seventh Cousin, I told Ruo Wei about our plan to open Yueji! She has some spare money, I wonder if she can get involved."
"sure!"
When Qu Li thought of Bai Ruowei's scumbag father, she felt that she should have more money on her side so that Bai Zhonghe would not use marriage to tie her down in the future.
The two chatted away, while Xiao Xian followed them on horseback.
This time the royal hunting was held at Nanshan Villa, which covered a large area but had no ferocious beasts. Usually, many noble families often came here to hunt.
After Xiao Xian revealed to the second prince Xiao Ci the fact that the Queen had framed Concubine Xian, Concubine Xian made some moves to make Emperor Kang even more disgusted with the Queen. This time, Emperor Kang only brought Concubine Xian with him, and for a while, there were many different opinions.
Xiao Zhao was also in Jing'an Temple reflecting on his mistakes and did not appear here.
Emperor Kang looked at Feng Yi, who stood tall and straight. "Fifth Prince, after this hunt, you will return to Southern Qi. I will use this hunt as an opportunity to fulfill my wish for you!"
Feng Yi clasped his hands together and bowed deeply: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
After the two men exchanged a few more words, the warriors from both countries rode away one after another.
Rong Yehua glanced at the location of the Southern Qi delegation, stood up and clasped his hands together.
"Your Majesty, this hunt isn't just for men, right?"
Emperor Kang knew that the women from the vassal states had been learning horse riding and archery since childhood. The reason he summoned her to the capital this time was because he was afraid that the Southern Qi would send women to make things difficult for Da Gan.
Although the two countries had lived in peace for the past ten years, Emperor Kang knew that Southern Qi had been recuperating for the past ten years, and this hunting expedition was a war song that would break the peace.
If the arrogance of Southern Qi cannot be suppressed, Southern Qi will surely make a comeback without any worries in the future!
"Princess Yehua has learned riding and archery since she was young, so she is naturally braver than the average girl in the boudoir! If you were alone and entered the dense forest with so many men, if something unexpected happened, I would have a hard time explaining it to King Zhongshan!" Emperor Kang looked concerned.
But if the emperor had not intended to let Rong Yehua suppress Southern Qi from the beginning, he would not have issued an order to summon Rong Yehua to the capital when he learned that the Southern Qi delegation was coming.
Rong Yehua clasped his hands together and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, this is Yehua's own decision. If anything unexpected really happens, your great-grandfather can't blame you! At most, he can teach Yehua a lesson for not mastering his skills well enough!"
Kangdi frowned and pondered, "It's still not right!"
When the Southern Qi delegation heard this, they looked delighted.
During these ten years, Southern Qi recuperated and strengthened training, and its overall national strength and military strength improved.
However, they will still feel scared when facing Xiao Xian this time. After all, the shadow Xiao Xian left in their hearts was too big.
The women of Southern Qi are different from the women of Dagan. They are not required to stay at home and can definitely crush Dagan with their strength!
Huang Zeran, the Minister of Rites of Southern Qi, stood up and bowed. "Your Majesty, Princess Yehua's suggestion is a good one. Hunting hasn't always been a man's thing! But there are differences between men and women. Why not select a few people and have them hunt small animals in the periphery? That would be more fun!"
Kangdi nodded, "Well!"
Concubine Xian smiled and said, "Since that's the case, I'll also offer some prizes as a reward for the woman who wins this time!"
As he spoke, he took off a jade bracelet from his wrist.
She intended to bring Rong Yehua and Xiao Ci together. With the help of King Zhongshan, it would also make it easier for the Second Prince to win the throne.
Emperor Kang also asked Eunuch Fu to prepare a prize, and then looked at the women brought by the high-ranking officials sitting below.
Seven or eight tall and heroic women soon stood up from the Southern Qi side.
In addition to Rong Yehua, there are two daughters of military generals on Dagan's side. However, these two daughters of military generals are tall and strong. Because they have been training in the barracks with their father since childhood, compared with the women of Southern Qi, they have a kind of sturdy and broad waist.
Kangdi's expression became increasingly ugly.
The women sitting below all lowered their heads, fearing that they would be seen by the emperor. If they acted casually, they would be taking risks.
Rong Yehua's long eyebrows were also twisted into a knot.
She really looked down on those pampered young ladies in the capital. It was just a royal hunting ground. There weren't even tigers or wolves there. Was it worth them being afraid?
She was just thinking about how to get Qu Li to join the hunt when she saw Qu Li slowly stand up. For a moment, her pupils suddenly tightened.
Cheng Ruolan, who had been quietly staying in the Southern Qi delegation, was also shocked when she saw Qu Li stand up.
Although everything was going according to plan, for some reason, she felt uneasy for no reason.
