Qin Zhen, a woman, seemed a bit awkward following many men.
Many people's eyes fell on her.
Curious, probing, disdainful, and even hostile... But Qin Zhen didn't care much. It was written all over her face: What can you do to me?
Among these people, Qin Zhen even saw an old acquaintance, Tang Qingzheng, the son of the Minister of Household Affairs who was thrown out by her at the flower viewing party.
The other party was staring at her hatefully with his eyes, obviously he was still worried about what happened at the flower viewing party.
Zhao Qing followed her, taking in all this, and couldn't help but whisper: "It seems that you have offended a lot of people."
Qin Zhen glanced at him sideways and said leisurely: "Didn't our Qin family offend all the powerful people in the capital?"
If the Qin family wants to be the most convenient knife in the emperor's hand, they must be full of sharp edges so that no one can get close to it.
Her father, the commander of the Dragon Guard Army and now the commander of the Forbidden Army, had thoroughly offended all the officials in the imperial court.
She, Princess Anshun, was used to being arrogant and domineering, and she had thoroughly offended the second generation in the capital.
Very good, the emperor likes it very much.
Zhao Qing was silent for a moment, and finally sighed and said, "It's too difficult."
If you are a bandit, you will be killed by the court. If you become an official, you will worry about being killed by others. Anyway, it is difficult to live a good life.
Qin Zhen laughed and said softly: "It will pass."
The group of people entered the forest and slowly dispersed.
Xiao Chengye took Qin Hong straight to the depths of the forest. It seemed that he had a big plan.
Where the emperor went, other people did not dare to rob him, so they went to other places.
Xiao Chengye said before setting off that whoever hunts the most prey today will be rewarded.
The reward is secondary. The most important thing is to show your face in front of the emperor and let the emperor remember you. This is the biggest benefit.
Qin Zhen has been following the crowd and has no interest in the reward.
Zhao Qing saw everyone dispersed and turned to ask Qin Zhen: "Which direction are we going?"
Qin Zhen: "Where did the prince go?"
Zhao Qing pointed in a direction.
Qin Zhen nodded, then rode horseback to chase the prince in the direction he left, and said leisurely: "We will hang out with the prince today."
Zhao Qing frowned, glanced at her, and said, "The boss will not allow you to be someone else's concubine."
Qin Zhen was stunned, then turned to look at Zhao Qing, in disbelief: "What are you thinking about?"
Zhao Qing raised his head and glanced at the direction Xiao Jue left, and whispered: "When we were on Longhu Mountain, you were very different from Xiao Jue, and then the birthday banquet happened... Don't say you have no thoughts about the prince.
.I can tell you that he has a crown princess now. If you marry her, she will be his concubine. The head of the family will not agree to it."
Qin Zhen: "..."
Did she perform so well? Even the people around her thought she had some thoughts about Xiao Jue.
Unfortunately, she did have some ideas, but she wanted Xiao Jue to die.
Qin Zhen said lightly: "You are overthinking. Even if all the men in this world die, I will not marry Xiao Jue."
After that, he pulled the reins and rode the horse past Zhao Qing.
Zhao Qing pouted and followed on horseback.
The two caught up with Xiao Jue's team soon, but Qin Zhen stopped far away. The forest was dense and there was a distance, so Xiao Jue didn't notice the two tails following behind.
Not far from Xiao Jue, there was a creek, and groups of deer were immersed in drinking water, unaware of the coming danger.
Zhao Qing took one look and said, "The prince is lucky to have captured this herd of deer. He will be the leader today."
Qin Zhen sneered: "I want him to gain nothing."
Zhao Qing was startled and turned to look at Qin Zhen.
Qin Zhen looked at him: "I remember, you are good at archery?"
Zhao Qing: "..."
Qin Zhen pointed to the group of deer drinking water and said: "Quick, shoot an arrow, don't hurt the deer."
Zhao Qing was sure that Qin Zhen really wanted Xiao Jue to lose everything.
How do you like Xiao Jue? Do you have a grudge against Xiao Jue for killing his father?
Zhao Qing murmured in his heart, while taking out an arrow from his backhand and aiming at the deer herd over there.
With a buzzing sound, the arrow feathers flew out, staring hard at the group of deer half a meter in front of them, causing a large splash of water.
The deer were frightened and turned around and ran away.
Xiao Jue roared: "Who shot the arrow?"
"Here comes someone, hurry up and chase him!"
Xiao Jue was almost furious, but he didn't have time to ask, so he rushed to chase after him.
On the other hand, Lou Yan, who was beside Xiao Jue, glanced back thoughtfully.
Although separated by dense woods, Zhao Qing felt as if he was being targeted by a poisonous snake. At that moment, his hair stood on end.
Fortunately, Lou Yan only glanced at it and followed Xiao Jue to chase the deer.
Zhao Qing took a breath and couldn't help but say: "This third prince...did he notice me? I always felt that he was looking at me just now."
Qin Zhen: "Are you afraid of him?"
Zhao Qing: "Don't you think he is scary?"
"Just a mute," Qin Zhen said calmly: "Don't worry, even if he finds us, he won't tell the prince."
Zhao Qing didn't quite believe it.
Everyone knows that Lou Yan is the prince's dog.
Qin Zhen did not explain, but continued to follow on horseback.
Xiao Jue wanted to take advantage of Qiu Lie's good performance to restore his image in Xiao Chengye's heart, but Qin Zhen refused to let him do so.
She wanted to see if a prince who was disliked by the emperor could sit still.
As time passed, the two of them used various means to interfere with Xiao Jue's good affairs several times. Until the sun was about to set, Xiao Jue still had nothing to gain.
Xiao Jue's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.
When it was getting dark, Qin Zhen saw a hare swaying in the grass from a distance.
Xiao Jue on the other side also saw it.
Originally, he looked down upon these little things, but now that there is nothing to gain, he has no choice.
Qin Zhen had quick eyes and quick hands. Xiao Jue shot an arrow one step at a time, and the rabbit struggled on the ground for a few times and then stopped moving.
Xiao Jue was stunned and raised his eyes to look in Qin Zhen's direction.
Qin Zhen stopped hiding, jumped off the horse and ran over quickly to pick up the rabbit, with a smile on her face: "I caught it!"
Zhao Qing followed her, glanced at her first, and then saluted Xiao Jue behind Qin Zhen: "I have met His Highness the Crown Prince."
Qin Zhen was stunned for a moment, then turned around with the rabbit in hand, as if she had just seen Xiao Jue, and said in surprise: "Your Highness, why are you here?"
She ignored Xiao Jue's cold face, walked quickly to Xiao Jue, and said with a smile: "Look, the rabbit I hunted!"
That expression was clearly asking for praise.
Xiao Jue's expression was stiff for a long time before he said: "Well, you are very powerful."
Qin Zhen smiled shyly: "I'm not great at all. I was just lucky enough to be hit by me."
She craned her neck to look behind Xiao Jue, and asked excitedly: "His Royal Highness is so powerful, he must have hunted a lot of prey, right? In today's first game, His Highness will definitely win the championship."
