Because Su Xiaoxi was not familiar with the rules of the hunting ground, she could only rush forward.

On the way, I almost tripped occasionally.

Fortunately, Chunlan had quick eyesight and quick hands to catch her, otherwise Su Xiaoxi would have fallen down.

Looking at Chunlan who looked nervous, Su Xiaoxi smiled slightly and comforted her, "I'm fine, don't worry!"

"Princess, I didn't mean that." Chunlan shook her head quickly, "I'm just worried about you, princess."

"It's okay." Su Xiaoxi still smiled lightly, not affected at all.

Along the way, Su Xiaoxi suddenly discovered something strange. These guards seemed to have very good martial arts skills.

"Have you practiced martial arts?" Su Xiaoxi asked, raising her eyebrows as she looked at the surrounding environment.

"Princess, we will take time to practice martial arts every day to keep fit." Chunlan replied.

Hearing this, Su Xiaoxi nodded, and then asked, "Have those martial arts masters accepted apprentices?"

"Not yet." Chunlan shook her head, "But if there is a chance one day, they should be willing to teach you, princess."

"Okay." Su Xiaoxi nodded.

The two of them talked and quickly arrived at the hunting ground.

After Su Xiaoxi entered, her eyes fell on the surroundings.

After seeing the scene here clearly, I couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

The place in front of you is like a villa, covering a vast area, with pavilions, rock gardens, and even all kinds of facilities.

The structure of this hunting ground is comparable to a mansion in the modern world.

No wonder so many people gather here.

The prices of the things here must be quite high.

Moreover, in the hunting ground, in addition to Su Xiaoxi and Chunlan, there were also some noble daughters and official ladies coming one after another.

They seemed to be interested in getting to know Cheng Shubai.

However, Su Xiaoxi faintly sensed their hostility, and Cheng Shubai didn't seem to like talking to them.

"Mr. Cheng." A woman shouted shyly.

Su Xiaoxi looked up and saw a woman who looked like a gorgeously dressed young woman.

After just one glance, Su Xiaoxi sneered, then turned her head, not bothering to look further.

The woman thought that Cheng Shubai would give her a toothy smile, but she only received a distant and indifferent look from the other party, which made her feel embarrassed.

Her name is Shen Wanyue, she is the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she is twenty-eight years old this year.

The Shen family is one of the richest businessmen in the capital, with great wealth and great power.

Although Shen Wanyue is not very handsome, her personality is cheerful and cheerful.

This was one of the reasons why she fell in love with Cheng Shubai.

She had heard about Cheng Shubai's handsome appearance and outstanding literary talent early in the morning, so she tried her best to get close to Cheng Shubai.

Now that she saw Cheng Shubai rejecting her, she naturally felt a little disappointed.

Su Xiaoxi sat on the horse and glanced around the hunting ground, but she was secretly thinking about how she should help Cheng Shubai.

This hunting ground is so large that finding the emperor is not easy.

While thinking about it, Su Xiaoxi suddenly caught a glimpse of several gentlemen riding horses not far away.

A closer look revealed that it was Song Yuanming, the son of the Taiwei, Lin Yang, the grandson of the Taifu, Wang Zhigang, the son of the Minister of Punishment, and several others.

Looking at these young masters, Su Xiaoxi narrowed her eyes.

I'm afraid these people are not that simple, right?

Su Xiaoxi's guess was correct, these people were indeed not that simple.

Their arrival is not just for hunting.

On the lawn in the center of the hunting ground, there were many people watching.

When Su Xiaoxi looked over, she saw a group of men in armor, sparring with each other, making fierce and fierce moves, which made the people watching around them cheer.

"Princess, let's avoid it so as not to get hurt." Seeing Su Xiaoxi looking over, Chunlan reminded her in a low voice. At the same time, she reached out to stop Su Xiaoxi's horse and took it aside.

These people were so strong that Su Xiaoxi couldn't bear them.

Although Su Xiaoxi really wanted to stay here, considering what Chunlan said, Su Xiaoxi finally followed Chunlan and exited the hunting area, and came to rest under a nearby ancient tree.

Su Xiaoxi drank water while watching the competition on the field.

These men have unpredictable martial arts skills, quick movements, and sharp moves.

This place seems to have become a battleground, and just one word can cause a storm.

Su Xiaoxi looked at it seriously and did not dare to be distracted at all.

Until Chunlan's gentle call came to my ears: "Princess, let's go back."

Su Xiaoxi suddenly reacted.

Turning to look at Chunlan, she saw that Chunlan was hesitant to speak.

"Chunlan, do you have something to say to me?" Su Xiaoxi asked doubtfully.

"Princess, look over there..." Chunlan pointed in a certain direction, indicating to Su Xiaoxi to look there.

Following Chunlan's line of sight, Su Xiaoxi saw several richly dressed men surrounding Cheng Shubai, while Cheng Shubai was surrounded by three or five people, forming a protective posture.

Su Xiaoxi frowned, then looked at Chunlan, "Do you know them?"

"We know each other." Chunlan nodded, "They are young masters from aristocratic families in the capital, and they are all friends with Mr. Cheng."

Su Xiaoxi frowned, "Why are you telling me this?"

Su Xiaoxi didn't like this feeling of being excluded.

"Princess, please don't get me wrong, I don't mean any harm." Chunlan explained hastily, then she got close to Su Xiaoxi, lowered her voice, and said in a voice that only Su Xiaoxi could hear: "Princess, Mr. Cheng has a distinguished status, we are just ordinary people, these Young Master always bullies us."

Su Xiaoxi was silent after hearing this.

She knew that Cheng Shubai had a noble status, but she never expected that it would be like this.

"Princess, you see, these people just want to unite to bully Mr. Cheng." After Chunlan finished speaking, she pointed at the other young masters.

At this time, the young masters were already approaching slowly.

Su Xiaoxi turned her head slightly and looked at Chunlan, then at Cheng Shubai in the field, and finally decided to go forward.

Although she didn't know much about martial arts, she could tell that those people's target was Cheng Shubai. In this case, she couldn't let it go.

Besides, Cheng Shubai was kind to her.

If it weren't for Cheng Shubai, she might have died long ago.

She must participate in this hunting competition!

While Su Xiaoxi was still thinking, the young masters had already walked up to Cheng Shubai and surrounded him.

"Hey, who do I think you are? Isn't this Lord Chief Assistant?"

A young man spoke angrily.

"It turns out to be Brother Li, whom I have admired for a long time." Cheng Shubai cupped his hands and clasped his fists, being humble and polite.

"You've been lying for so long. Brother Cheng, have you forgotten what happened at the palace banquet last time?" The young master was obviously very dissatisfied with Cheng Shubai's attitude.
