Shen Qingwu knew that he couldn't disobey the order today. He sneered and looked at Chu Zhiyou, "What do I have to be afraid of? I'm just worried that you won't hunt as many as me and you'll cry and complain."
Chu Zhiyou's face was extremely dark. "You are so sharp-tongued. It will be embarrassing for you to come out empty-handed later!"
"Zhiyou." Su Zeyan couldn't stand it anymore. He walked over and pulled Chu Zhiyou's arm, whispering, "Aren't you ashamed of arguing with a little girl here?"
Guo Chuan didn't say anything, but came over to help drag Chu Zhiyou away.
Not far away, Chu Guannan was wearing a riding suit with a crescent-shaped white gold thread outline and riding a tall white horse. He looked like he had no fighting power.
He sat dignifiedly on his horse, waiting for his good brothers, and had no intention of getting close to watch the fun today.
In the stands, the ladies who didn't go out hunting gathered together, chattering and gossiping, looking at the handsome men.
"I think His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan is becoming more and more handsome, but his words are too harsh, so I don't dare to approach him and talk to him." Someone held his chin with a look of regret on his face.
"Doesn't your brother often go to Wangyue Tower to have dinner with Prince Yan? Could you ask him for help?" Someone else suggested with a smile, "Prince Yan, the Sixteenth Prince, it's time for a marriage proposal. Maybe this hunt is also for the purpose of seeing each other. What if the opportunity comes?"
"But none of us can ride horses."
"So what if he can't ride a horse? King Yan also knows how to ride a horse." Of course, not everyone likes Chu Guannan, and there are people who look down on him.
"He comes every time we hunt, and he's always so arrogant, but when he actually gets into the hunting grounds, he can't catch a single rabbit."
"Yes, he seems to return with a full load every year, but he is always dressed in spotless white clothes, while those who go in with him always come back empty-handed and in a disheveled state. Just think about it and you will know why."
Some people have always looked down upon Chu Guannan's behavior and want the noble ladies in Kyoto to be more sober.
The girls in the stands were talking about it.
Those who were going to the hunting ground today had all changed their clothes. Zheng Hengyi, who came out first, rode his horse to Chu Guannan's side.
Zheng Hengyi said in a low voice without much confidence: "Third brother, the one wearing red is my elder sister, Zheng Yutong."
Before setting off, his father called him over and gave him an order: "Today at the hunting grounds, you must find a way to bring your sister and the King of Yan together."
Zheng Hengyi was dumbfounded when he heard the order, "Father, are you serious?"
The Grand Historian glared at him and said, "Just do what I tell you to do. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
"But father, Prince Yan's words are the most unpleasant. Can my sister bear it?" Zheng Hengyi was very worried.
Everyone in Kyoto knew that Chu Guannan had made a girl who liked her cry. The girl had never left the house since then and had been clamoring to become a nun.
"This is not your concern." Lord Taishi said lightly.
Zheng Hengyi wondered what his father was planning, but he couldn't figure it out.
Since his father didn't explain, he had no choice but to do as he was told.
Upon hearing this, Chu Guannan looked over politely and sneered.
Just as Zheng Hengyi was having a bad feeling, he heard Chu Guannan say, "Oh, just like you, the one who can't even win an argument with a fool?"
Zheng Hengyi lowered his head and dared not speak anymore.
The task his father gave him was too difficult for him to complete.
…
Although the royal hunting grounds were surrounded, someone came to inspect them before hunting.
However, since it is located in the mountains, all those entering must form a team of at least three people to avoid accidents.
Everyone who is out there has his own small group, except for Shen Qingwu who was brought here alone by the prince today.
She was wearing a white riding outfit and looked heroic, which made Zheng Yutong and others even more jealous. They missed the silly and ugly Shen Qingwu in the past.
"Shen Qingwu, if you kneel down and beg me, I will agree to take you in." Zheng Yutong sat on the horse and looked down at Shen Qingwu and said alms.
Shen Qingwu lowered his eyes and glanced at Zheng Yutong's knees. Why does this guy always like to ask people to kneel down?
"Even if I go alone, I will definitely perform better than Miss Zheng. You are much more eloquent than your brother." Shen Qingwu withdrew his gaze.
She couldn't figure out the reason for the black mist on Zheng Yutong's forehead, and she was too lazy to delve into it.
Most people like this are courting death.
…
Also excluded from the circle of noble ladies was Xie Yuening, who had just lost her daughter a few days ago and had divorced her husband and returned to the Xie family.
"Sister, you've been taking care of the children and the old lady at home these years and neglected your training. We won't take you with us to prevent you from being a drag."
The girls from the Xie family changed into their equipment and said without any reservation that they didn't want to play with Xie Yuening anymore.
"Yes, sister, you have already dragged down the reputation of the sisters. Moreover, I heard that you had a bet with father today. You should not join us. Otherwise, even if you win, it will not be your fault."
The girls from the Xie family are very rude in their words.
Xie Yuening nodded nonchalantly, "As you please."
She and her father had an agreement that if she could come out on top among the women today, her father would help her get the opportunity to form a women's army.
When she got the opportunity to lead the team, it was also the time when she split up with the Xie brothers and sisters.
All this was destined.
Dong Tao looked at Xie Yuening distressedly, "Sister..."
"It's okay. This is what I should bear." Xie Yuening pretended to be indifferent and walked towards Shen Qingwu while leading the horse.
"Miss Chen, do you want to go into the hunting ground with me?" Xie Yuening ignored Zheng Yutong's warning.
Shen Qingwu glanced at Zheng Yutong, who was so angry that he couldn't speak, smiled and extended his hand to Xie Yuening, "Okay."
