Zhao Qing stood aside, his head almost buried in his chest.
Their eldest daughter's ability to tell lies with her eyes open is unparalleled.
He obviously personally interfered with Xiao Jue's good deeds and had nothing to gain from it all day long, but now he could say with excitement that he would definitely win the first place today.
Do you have any idea whether he can win the championship?
Sure enough, after Qin Zhen finished speaking, Xiao Jue's face turned even more ugly.
But facing Qin Zhen's smiling face full of expectation, Xiao Jue really couldn't get angry with her, so he said in a cold tone: "I... didn't hunt anything today."
After that, he couldn't bear it anymore, turned to look at the people behind him, and roared: "Who is shooting arrows from behind to disturb the prey? Stand up, and I will spare your life!"
His face was gloomy, it didn't look like he wanted to spare the other person's life, but like he wanted to cut the person into pieces.
When the prince became angry, everyone fell to their knees and fell into silence.
Following this large group of people, they chased the prey in a chaotic mess, and no one knew who fired the arrow.
Qin Zhen seemed to realize that things were different from what she thought.
She hesitated for a moment, then slowly handed over the rabbit in her hand, and said softly: "Your Highness, this is for you."
Xiao Jue was stunned: "Give it to me, what about you?"
"I don't care," Qin Zhen smiled and said, "I'm a woman, so it's normal for me not to be hunted. But you are different, you are the prince!"
Xiao Jue's eyes flashed: "Don't you think I'm useless?"
"How can I blame you?" Qin Zhen said in a deep voice: "Someone disturbed the prey, and coupled with the bad luck, you have worked very hard. What's more, you are already very good and don't need to do such a thing.
Prove yourself."
Xiao Jue's eyes were full of emotion, he looked at Qin Zhen with stern eyes, and said softly: "You are indeed different from others."
No matter what he is like, in Qin Zhen's eyes, he is the best.
Xiao Jue returned the rabbit and said to Qin Zhen: "You hunted this with so much hard work, how can I keep it as my own? You don't have to worry about me, as you said, I don't need to use these beasts to prove it.
Own."
Qin Zhen looked full of admiration: "His Royal Highness is indeed responsible."
Xiao Jue seemed to want to reach out and hug Qin Zhen, but seeing so many people around him, he finally had to retreat and pat Qin Zhen on the shoulder, and said softly to her: "Zhen Zhen, I know how you feel about me. If you don't
Wait, I will arrange everything as soon as possible."
After saying that, he turned around, mounted his horse, and shouted: "We're going back."
Lou Yan walked beside Xiao Jue. Before leaving, he turned back and glanced at Qin Zhen lightly.
Qin Zhen raised her eyebrows and shook the rabbit in her hand at him.
Lou Yan looked blank for a moment, then turned around and walked away expressionlessly.
After everyone was gone, Zhao Qing breathed a sigh of relief.
He looked at Qin Zhen without words, and said leisurely: "What do you want to do?"
Seeing her coming into contact with the prince, she looked like she was secretly in love with him. But looking at her previous behavior, she felt that she and the prince had a deep hatred.
Can't figure it out.
Qin Zhen threw the rabbit in her hand to him: "Don't worry about it."
Zhao Qing knew that Qin Zhen always had ideas, so he didn't ask any questions and helped her carry the rabbit to the camp.
When they returned, a bonfire had been lit in the camp, and the people who had gone into the woods to hunt had also returned.
Next to the bonfire, the carcasses of animals were piled up into hills, which were all everyone's harvest today.
In the middle, there is a tiger carcass.
Qin Zhen finally came back. When she jumped off the horse, everyone's eyes fell on Qin Zhen.
As soon as Xiao Chengye saw her, he smiled and waved to her: "Zhenzhen, what can you gain?"
Qin Zhen took the rabbit from Zhao Qing and walked quickly to Xiao Chengye: "Father, look, I hunted the rabbit."
The rabbit's hair was as white as snow, without a stray hair.
Qin Zhen smiled and said: "Let everyone deal with it later, and use the fur to make a scarf for my father."
Xiao Chengye was very pleasantly surprised. He originally thought that this girl was just joking, but he didn't expect that he could actually bring something back.
"Okay, okay, not bad!" Xiao Chengye's happiness was written on his face: "Gao Cheng, go find the jade Ruyi in my warehouse and send it to Zhen Zhen later."
When Gao Cheng heard this, he quickly said: "Yes, I will look for you when I get back."
Then he said to Qin Zhen: "Congratulations, princess. This jade Ruyi is your majesty's private collection. When the queen came to ask for it, your majesty was not willing to give it to you."
Xiao Chengye glanced at him: "You are the only one who talks a lot."
When Qin Zhen heard this, she quickly said: "This is too expensive, I don't want it."
Xiao Chengye touched her head and said: "I like your rabbit very much, and I will give you the jade Ruyi in exchange. If you don't want my Ruyi, then I won't want your rabbit either."
Qin Zhen: "...Why is your Majesty still cheating?"
Xiao Chengye: "Then will you change it?"
Qin Zhen: "Excuse me, my father wants it, how can I not give it to you?"
Xiao Chengye suddenly laughed.
Qin Hong stood aside, glanced at Qin Zhen, and whispered to Xiao Chengye: "Your Majesty, you indulge this girl too much and spoil her."
"I like her," Xiao Chengye glanced at Qin Hong and said with a smile: "So what if she is spoiled? My daughter, she will be happy as long as she is happy."
Qin Hong's eyes were moved: "It is a blessing for this girl to be loved by His Majesty."
Xiao Chengye patted Qin Hong on the shoulder and walked slowly to the pile of prey.
As soon as he glanced over, there were people beside him who took the initiative to introduce him.
Many of them were hunted by Xiao Chengye and Qin Hong, so needless to say.
Xiao Chengye pointed at the tiger and asked, "Who hunted this?"
A man came out of the crowd and said loudly: "Father, I am your son."
Xiao Chengye looked up and raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Fourth?"
When Xiao Yao heard this, he was immediately unconvinced: "Father, how can you look at my son like this? If you don't believe it, ask him."
Xiao Yao pulled the person next to him. It was Tang Qingzheng, the son of the Minister of Household Affairs.
Tang Qingzheng cleared his throat and said, "Your Majesty, this tiger was indeed killed by His Royal Highness himself."
Xiao Yao raised his chin proudly.
Xiao Chengye said with a smile in his eyes: "I thought your bones were softened by soaking in rouge, gouache and wine all day long."
Xiao Yao chuckled: "That's not possible, our old Xiao family has no soft bones."
"That's right," Xiao Chengye pointed at him and said, "You can reward me too."
After a pause, he suddenly said: "You are not young anymore, so don't hang around outside all day. Go back and pack up, report to your elder brother, and help him."
Xiao Yao was stunned and subconsciously turned back to look at Xiao Jue.
Xiao Jue narrowed his eyes and looked at him intently.
Xiao Yao was silent for a moment, then declined deliberately: "Father, I'm used to being lazy, I..."
"Then I'll slap your lazy ass!" Xiao Chengye said lightly: "What does it sound like to be mixed in a pile of makeup and powder all day long?"
