Chapter 81 The Prince Consort Disguised as a Man in a Revenge Story (26)
Two days later.
Today is a rare good weather, the sky is as blue as a wash, and the hunting ground is reflected with a bit of the crispness of autumn.
During this hunt, the Holy Father came in person, and naturally everyone came especially well.
Not long after, everyone had arrived, and the Holy Father said some words of encouragement as usual, and then announced that the hunt had begun.
In order to make this hunt more interesting, and to mobilize the enthusiasm of the men of Daye, they showed their grace in Daye in front of the Xidi envoy.
The Holy Spirit personally said that whoever can win the jackpot of this hunt will get a jade pendant that he wears with him.
The value of the jade pendant is second to none, but it is a close match for the Holy Emperor and is of extraordinary significance.
The eyes of several princes became darker.
Now is the critical moment for establishing the throne. If anyone can get this jade pendant, it will be equivalent to gaining more attention from the Sacred Heart.
Even the officials of the previous dynasty would consider one more point when placing their bets.
Most of the hunting this time was dominated by men, with women mostly in the small hunting ground isolated on the east side.
The prey there is mainly rabbits, foxes and other less aggressive animals. This is also to prevent the female family members from being injured during the hunting process.
The West Hunting Ground, also known as the Great Hunting Ground, is the highlight of this hunt.
At this time, everyone was ready to go. Just waiting for the timer drum to sound, they galloped towards the hunting ground to show off their skills.
Among the men, two figures stood out.
Princess Helian Pingting of Xidi.
Song Weilan, the princess of Daye Dingguo.
Helian Pingting was naturally the one who took the initiative to ask to enter the West Hunting Ground.
After all, at the palace banquet that day, she only briefly touched the background of the third prince and Princess Dingguo.
She thought it was necessary to get to know the remaining princes more.
And what else can better reveal a person's bowing, horse riding, shooting skills and ability to strategize than when hunting.
Therefore, she will naturally not miss this hunt.
Song Weilan was appointed by the Holy Emperor to accompany Princess Helian.
During these days, the Holy Father summoned Song Weilan to accompany him every day. For a moment, he felt a little admiration for this daughter whom he had neglected before.
Poetry, martial arts, she is not inferior to her royal brothers in everything.
Even since she was a child, she has never had the best civil and martial arts master in the world like her royal brother.
The Holy Emperor also asked her a few questions. Many of the things she knew now were not taught by the female training officers in the palace.
Song Weilan only smiled shyly.
Said that all this was taught by the consort.
"The prince-in-law told me that I could tell him whatever I wanted to learn or see. If he knew how, he would teach me himself. If he didn't know how, he would find the best teacher to teach me."
Hearing this, the Holy Emperor stroked his beautiful beard and felt that his gifted marriage was perfect to the extreme.
The Prince Consort was truly worthy of being the talent he valued.
On the one hand, he was also slightly regretful.
After only half a year of studying with the consort after getting married, she was able to overpower her royal brothers in many areas.
If you were taught carefully from an early age, how great would you be?
If she were a man, she wouldn't have as many worries about establishing a heir today.
Because of this respect and trust, the Holy Emperor specifically allowed Song Weilan to enter the hunting grounds today, also in order to suppress Princess Xidi and prevent what happened at the palace banquet that day from happening again.
Song Weilan was burdened with a heavy responsibility, but she unexpectedly lost the nervousness she felt at the beginning of the palace banquet.
Because, in the past few days, she slowly discovered.
I am not as incompetent as I thought before.
The royal brothers are not as outstanding as they thought.
Moreover, when she turned around and glanced at Shi Ran beside her, Song Weilan's back straightened a little.
Aran is beside him.
She is fearless.
With the sound of timed drums, everyone galloped towards the paddock on horseback.
The raised dust is flying in the wind, which is a vigorous and heroic atmosphere.
The Holy Lord above looked at this scene and nodded slightly, hoping that the good men and women in Daye would bring him good news in a while.
Concubine Yue, who was sitting on the lower left side of the empress, slightly tightened her hand on the brocade handkerchief.
Bingzhu, my mother-in-law and uncle have arranged everything for you, I hope you can give it a try.
The queen glanced at this scene with her lowered eyes, and a hint of sarcasm curled up at the corner of her mouth.
Concubine Yue, since you broke the covenant first and instigated the third prince to betray me, my adoptive mother.
Then don't blame me for being cruel.
You have been famous for long enough.
In the hunting ground, after everyone entered the dense forest, they all scattered and looked for prey.
Princess Naxidi found a small deer almost immediately when she entered the hunting ground.
Deer has always been a symbol of good omen in the hunting field.
Before Helian Pingting could pick up the long bow, someone on the side also spotted the deer.
An arrow was shot, but it failed to hit the deer. Instead, it frightened it and made the deer immediately flee into the jungle.
Helian Pingting immediately followed the horse with its belly.
She was determined to get this deer.
"Pingting!"
Helian Chongzhi was about to chase after him, but was stopped by Lord Yu behind him.
"Prince Helian, I have something unclear about the tribute list this time..."
Mr. Yu is the minister of the Ministry of Rites, and he is also the Daye official who has the most dealings with Helian Chongzhi this time.
Helian Chongzhi could not ignore his words, so he could only stop his horse, and then motioned to the two Xidi officials beside him to follow him.
However, after such a delay, when the two Xidi officials rushed towards Helian Pingting, they could no longer find their princess.
On the other side, Shi Ran also took Song Weilan and headed in the direction where Helian Pingting disappeared.
However, they were not like the two Xidi officials, who were like headless flies who couldn't figure out the direction.
Shi Ran released a golden-shelled beetle from the hollow incense ball at her waist.
As soon as the golden-shelled beetle was released, it immediately flew in one direction.
Shi Ran and Song Weilan followed behind the beetle.
The saddle of the horse that Princess Siddi was riding was dyed with special spices.
Ordinary people can't smell it.
But this golden-shelled beetle is best at recognizing smells. As long as there is a spice within a radius of five miles, it will quickly track and locate it.
"Aran, how can we stop Brother Three Emperors?"
The Third Emperor Brother wanted to attack Princess Xidi. When she first learned the news, she was shocked.
She never expected that the third prince would be so petty?
Just because she lost someone at the palace banquet, she planned to harm Princess Naxidi like this.
He also wanted to destroy her innocence and let her stay in Daye as a concubine.
She could see that the Xidi Princess was passionate and free by nature. If she was really left in Daye to be a prince's concubine, to her, it would be no less than locking a soaring eagle in a cage for the rest of her life.
Shi Ran turned around and glanced at Song Weilan.
Then, he smiled softly.
"Stop it? No! We are here to see a good show. In other words, we are here to clean up the mess."
That Princess Xidi is not such a simple person.
