Chapter 205 Let Xiao Baozhu be the villain
This sentence made a hint of disgust flash in the eyes of Jiang Zelin and Sun Jingxuan.
It is really shameful for an unmarried princess to be so close to a foreign man and for everyone to know about it.
Walking to the pavilion nearby, Xiao Baozhu sat down, still looking angry.
"I shouldn't have come. My cousin clearly knew that I had a grudge against Jiang Zelin, yet he still brought him here. Was he deliberately trying to annoy me?"
While Ye Hanyi was trying to calm her down, he didn't forget to gossip about their past.
Xiao Baozhu said this angrily, and after hearing this, Lu Zhiran and Ye Hanyi no longer had a good impression of Jiang Zelin.
Lu Zhiran didn't hesitate to assume the worst of others, "Baozhu, you have to be more careful with Jiang Zelin. I always feel that he has bad intentions."
After a pause, he said, "You should also be more careful about your cousin."
Sun Jingxuan is very good at dealing with people and is very tactful. It is impossible for him not to consider Xiao Baozhu's feelings, but he still invited Jiang Zelin and was keen to act as a peacemaker between the two of them. This can only mean that he did it on purpose.
No matter what his purpose was, it could be seen that he didn't care about Xiao Baozhu's thoughts.
Ye Hanyi also said: "Your cousin is indeed not very good, it's always better to be more careful."
Xiao Baozhu nodded seriously.
"Originally, I thought I could just hold my nose and get married, but now, thinking about marrying someone like that, I'm dying."
Lu Zhiran said slowly, "From my perspective, I'm afraid Master Sun may not want to marry you."
The imperial son-in-law of this dynasty can only hold sinecures and cannot hold real positions.
Sun Jingxuan is the legitimate grandson of the Sun family and is also well-known for his talent. Would the Sun family be willing to waste such a good seedling to marry the princess?
If he really had feelings for Xiao Baozhu, he wouldn't be so indifferent to her attitude and thoughts.
Xiao Baozhu clapped her hands happily, "That's great! If he brings this up with my mother, she will definitely stop forcing us together."
Lu Zhiran's eyes darkened slightly. "I'm afraid, but the Sun family doesn't want to do anything that would offend the Empress."
He couldn't offend the Empress, and he didn't want this marriage either. What should he do? He could only let Xiao Baozhu be the villain.
If Xiao Baozhu is extremely opposed to this marriage and refuses to marry, the Queen Mother will be unable to do anything to her, and the Sun family will naturally be the innocent party.
Xiao Baozhu didn't understand what was going on for a moment. Just as she was about to ask, Sun Ruolan came over with a group of beautiful girls. Xiao Baozhu's face immediately drooped.
So annoying.
Sun Ruolan is as good at socializing as Sun Jingxuan. Even though something unpleasant had just happened, she remained calm and greeted Xiao Baozhu warmly, while not neglecting Lu Zhiran and Ye Hanyi.
Xiao Baozhu's expression was indifferent, Ye Hanyi's heart had already flown away, and Sun Ruolan couldn't continue the conversation in the end, and the atmosphere gradually became cold.
Xiao Baozhu stood up and said, "Now that we're here, let's go into the woods and hunt."
Sun Ruolan smiled and said, "I'm not good at riding or shooting, so I can only watch the fun."
As soon as they left, the smile on Sun Ruolan's face faded, and there was a hint of contempt in her eyes.
She was just lucky to be born as a princess. Otherwise, with her character, appearance and talent, how could she be worthy of her brother?
Xiao Baozhu and the other two went to choose horses and then strolled into the woods.
Lu Zhiran and Xiao Baozhu's riding skills are average, they just do it for fun.
As soon as Ye Hanyi entered the forest, he felt like a fish in water and quickly left the two of them behind.
Xiao Baozhu was inspired by her and also whipped her horse to chase after her.
But her riding skills were no match for Ye Hanyi's, and she could only stare at her back.
Soon, her attention was attracted by a small creature that jumped out from the side.
"It's the Silver Fox! Hahaha, why am I so lucky?"
She immediately chased after him, and Lu Zhiran quickly rode his horse to catch up.
"Baozhu, wait for me."
Xiao Baozhu's mind and eyes were filled with the silver fox, so how could she care about Lu Zhiran?
She turned around and around, and Lu Zhiran saw that she could not catch up, so she could only shout to remind her.
"Baozhu, don't go too far. It's dangerous deep in the forest."
Xiao Baozhu's voice came from afar, "It's okay, I have guards with me."
Her guards followed closely behind, and Lu Zhiran felt a little more at ease.
With her mediocre skills, she was powerless even if she was worried. She should just take care of herself first.
The animals in this hunting ground were all bred in captivity. Some of them were stupid and had slow reactions. Even with Lu Zhiran's poor archery skills, he still managed to shoot a rabbit.
Compared to her, Shuanghua's archery skills are much better.
Every time she let her prey escape, Shuanghua would shoot it with an arrow, and Cui Fu and Dan Yan could only clap and cheer on the side.
After a stroll around the outskirts of the forest, the master and servants also gained a lot.
Of course, the main achievements came from Shuanghua. Lu Zhiran only harvested two rabbits, Cui Fu and Dan Yan got nothing, but the two of them also had a lot of fun and were full of praise for Shuanghua. Shuanghua's originally expressionless face showed a bit of pride.
Danyan has already started to list the dishes: roast chicken, roast rabbit, pepper and sesame rabbit, dry pot rabbit...
Shuanghua rolled her eyes and couldn't help swallowing secretly.
If I had known this, I should have hunted more.
The master and his four servants were just about to return home when they suddenly heard a frantic tiger roar, and their expressions suddenly changed.
"Miss, I seem to have heard the roar of a tiger."
"You must have heard wrongly, how could there be a tiger here?"
Just as these words fell, another tiger roar was heard. This roar was even more frantic than before, and it was filled with thunderous rage.
Now, no one dares to take any chances anymore.
This is definitely the roar of a tiger.
Shuanghua made a prompt decision, "Miss, it is not appropriate to stay here for long. I will escort you away."
Lu Zhiran looked in the direction where the tiger's roar came from, and a deep sense of worry and uneasiness rose in his heart.
Xiao Baozhu and Ye Hanyi went in that direction, they will be fine, right?
Of course not, they all have guards with them, and Ye Hanyi is also able to protect himself.
The only thing she can do is to protect herself and not cause trouble.
The master and his four servants hurriedly left the forest.
They were already safe, but Lu Zhiran felt extremely uneasy.
She instructed Shuanghua, "Go and check. If you find the princess and Miss Ye, escort them out immediately."
Shuanghua glanced at her, a little hesitant.
Her duty is to protect Lu Zhiran. If she has an accident here, she will be blamed.
Lu Zhiran's eyes were sharp, and he left no room for doubt. "Go!"
Shuanghua didn't dare to hesitate any longer and nodded in agreement.
"Protect yourself."
"yes!"
After saying this, she jumped on her horse and quickly disappeared into the depths of the forest.
The noble ladies also heard the tiger's roar, and their faces were filled with fear.
The Sun family sent all their guards into the woods to rescue people.
Sun Ruolan's face was no longer as calm and composed as before. Her face was pale and her heart was extremely panicked.
Today, the Sun family invited many young masters to come hunting together. Now everyone is in the woods. If anything goes wrong with them, the Sun family will not be able to explain.
Besides, my brother is also in the woods.
After an unknown amount of time, someone finally came out of the woods. It was a group of young men. Although they looked a little disheveled, they had no injuries on their bodies.
Upon inquiry, they found out that they had hurried out of the woods after hearing a tiger roar, and had not encountered any tiger.
Sun Ruolan looked around and didn't see her brother, and her face became a little ugly.
"Where's my brother?"
Everyone shook their heads. "We separated after entering the forest and weren't together."
