Ye Fuxun nodded vigorously: "I definitely heard you right. Later, I saw someone carrying two wooden boxes out of the cave and burying them under a big tree about half a stick of incense to the west of the cave.
"
"I know about this." Ji Yannuo hugged Ye Fulun, "It seems that this autumn hunting will be even more uneven. From now on, Ah Xun will not go out alone, okay?"
Ye Fuxun nodded hurriedly: "I will meet you. If you want to go out, I will definitely report it to Your Highness before going."
Seeing that Ji Yannuo had dispelled his doubts about her and made the information that needed to be conveyed clear, Ye Fuxun finally felt relaxed.
Because we had just arrived at the Xishan Royal Hunting Ground Camp, in order to allow everyone to adapt to the hunting atmosphere, there was no formal formation into the mountain for hunting on the second day.
The morning is for casual activities. Those who are interested can go hunting in the forest. Those who want to take a short rest can also stay at the camp.
In the afternoon, there was a competition held by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
"The content of competitions is mostly horse racing, equestrian skills, archery, sword competition and other hunting-related events," the Crown Princess explained as she led Ye Fuxun and Zhang to the arena slowly. "There are mostly men's competitions.
But we women also have several competitive events."
"This year, the three of us are coming to the Prince's Mansion, and we have to participate in at least two competitions." The Crown Princess glanced at the two of them, "I see that horse racing and archery are not too difficult, so how about you two choose the same one?"
Mrs. Zhang immediately answered: "My sister chooses horse racing."
"Then Concubine Ye will participate in archery?" The Crown Princess smiled gently, "We are determined to participate, there is no need to feel pressure."
Mrs. Zhang covered her mouth and smiled: "Sister, it's simple. I'm afraid that some people have never even touched a bow and arrow. At that time, they will not intend to participate, but will embarrass our Prince's Palace."
"Sister, isn't she good at archery? Why don't you come back first for our prince's palace?" Mrs. Zhang looked at the princess, somewhat confused as to what she meant by such an arrangement.
If she wants to see it, it would be best for the Crown Princess to choose the same thing as her, and just leave Concubine Ye aside!
The Crown Princess smiled: "I'm afraid my sister doesn't know. My sister heard that a few days before the autumn hunt, His Highness made a special trip to teach Ye Fangfei archery."
"Your Highness must be thinking of letting Concubine Ye show off her talents tomorrow, and of course my sister will make it happen."
Mrs. Zhang's expression suddenly changed, and she immediately sneered: "You have only studied for a few days and you want to bring glory to our Prince's Palace? I'm afraid you are just dreaming!"
Ye Fuxun said nothing.
"His Highness is the best in archery," the Crown Princess looked at Ye Fuxun and said thoughtfully, "With His Highness personally teaching you, there shouldn't be any big problem for Concubine Ye to participate in the archery competition.
It's just like Concubine Zhang said, you just learned archery not long ago, so it doesn't matter even if you lose. Don't feel guilty because you can't bring glory to our Crown Prince's Palace."
"How can that be done?" Ms. Zhang curled her lips, "Either don't participate. If you want to participate, you have to get a ranking!"
Ye Fuxun smiled and looked at Mrs. Zhang: "So it seems that Concubine Zhang must be very good at horse racing? Winning the top three is not a problem?"
Zhang's expression changed, and she immediately raised her chin: "At least I won't lose to you, and there will be no problem in taking the top three!"
"That's really exciting to watch."
Ye Fuxun looked at the Crown Princess again and said, "My Lady, I have only learned archery for a few days. I am afraid that my ability is not enough to bring glory to our Crown Prince's Palace. Why don't we ask you to go into battle in person?"
The Crown Princess hesitated for a moment, then sighed: "Concubine Ye has not learned archery for a long time, so it is understandable that she does not dare to participate in competitions. Although I am not an expert in archery, I have learned archery since I was a child...
, then I will go to the archery competition."
Ye Fuxun chuckled in his heart.
The Crown Princess clearly wanted to participate in the battle herself.
What's the point of having to be polite to her first?
She is not someone who likes to be in the limelight. Being an audience member, eating melon seeds and watching a show is the way to happiness.
The Crown Princess and Mrs. Zhang looked at each other, feeling slightly happy in their hearts.
Concubine Ye said not to participate in the competition herself, and His Highness would have no reason to settle the score with them later.
Concubine Ye is not only favored by His Highness, but after opening the Siba Pavilion, she has been praised by all the ladies including the empress in the palace. If she is in the spotlight again in the arena, who will remember the prince in the prince's palace?
Concubine and concubine Zhang?
When the three of them arrived at the arena, bursts of cheers came from the venue.
"Has the men's horse racing started yet?" the Crown Princess whispered, "Your Highness is going to participate in the horse racing today. Let's hurry over and have a look."
When we reached the edge of the horse racing track, the finish line was already crowded with people.
"This is the last lap, I don't know who can win!"
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and King Chu were in the lead in the lap just now. It depends on which of them can win the championship."
"I'm afraid King Chu will take first place. After all, he has always been in first place in horse racing in previous years."
"It's hard to say. This is the first time for His Royal Highness to participate in horse racing this year. Who knows that he won't be able to beat the King of Chu?"
Ye Fuxun listened to everyone's discussion and looked at the runway with everyone's eyes slightly nervously.
Just then, someone exclaimed: "Look! Someone is back!"
"Who is it?"
"Is he the prince or the king of Chu?"
Everyone stood on tiptoes and squinted their eyes to look at the far side of the track.
Under the sunlight, I saw a brown horse galloping towards me, and a figure sitting on the horse——
Ye Fuxun's lips curled up, who else could it be if it wasn't her Highness?
Ji Yannuo half-crouched on the horse, with a proud and heroic posture. His whole body was like a sharp arrow coming off the string, and like lightning flashing down from the horizon. He was so fast that it almost left an afterimage, but he crossed the finish line in the blink of an eye.
Wire.
"Prince! Prince! Prince!"
Amidst the loud cheers of the people, Ji Yannuo jumped off the horse with neat movements. With a glance, he instantly saw Ye Fuxun through the crowd.
Her men are so handsome!
Ye Fuxun happily waved his hand at Ji Yannuo.
The next moment, Ji Yannuo raised his hand and made a heart gesture to her.
She is dying! Her heart is beating fast!
Ye Fuxun felt as if his heart had been hit by Cupid's arrow, and his face immediately turned pink.
Then he quietly raised his hand and made a heart sign towards Ji Yannuo.
Although their actions were not obvious, they caught the eyes of many people.
King Chu, who had tried his best but was only ranked second, said, "Which one is the prince's younger brother and Concubine Ye playing again? Can you please explain so that he and his own princess can try it too?"
The two of them were gesticulating sweetly in the air, making him miss his princess very much!
If the princess hadn't been pregnant, she would have smiled at him in the crowd.
King Qin, who regretted not participating in the horse racing: The tacit understanding between the prince and Concubine Ye is really enviable.
