All the gentlemen who are attacked by the female queen are stunningly beautiful

Song Xiang lowered his head and replied softly, "I will obey your father's order."

"Don't be perfunctory, father. This marriage concerns the reputation of the royal family and even more so the disputes between factions. You must treat it with care."

The emperor and empress spoke in a serious tone, actually warning Song Xiang.

"I understand, father, don't worry." Song Xiang agreed on the surface, but in his heart he was thinking about how to have fun with Shuxing.

After leaving the Emperor and Empress's tent, Song Xiang said to Yun Que as they walked: "I just saw a lot of fireflies under the big tree over there. Come with me to catch some fireflies."

Yun Que said quickly, "Then send someone to bring a glass bottle over!"

Song Xiang nodded and said with satisfaction: "The fireflies in the glass bottle are really beautiful! Please ask someone to bring it here quickly."

"Here!"

The night covers the earth and the moonlight is like water.

Song Xiang had her long hair tied up high, standing under a tree, her skirt fluttering, like a fairy descending to earth.

She called a few guards and asked them to follow her to catch fireflies. Soon the guards with the glass bottle came running over. Song Xiang put the caught fireflies into the glass bottle. Including those caught by the guards, the whole bottle was almost full.

"Now, Shuxing will be happy!" Song Xiang said to himself while holding the bottle.

Yun Que said in time: "Your Highness, that Mr. Qian is still waiting for you in the tent, should we go back?"

Song Xiang curled his lips and said, "The scenery here is very beautiful, tell someone to bring Shuxing over."

Not long after, Shu Xing, accompanied by two guards, arrived under a tree beside the grassland. He saw Song Xiang standing alone and thought something had happened and he needed to be talked to alone.

So he asked doubtfully: "Xiangxiang, does the Empress know about you and me?"

Song Xiang smiled slightly and shook his head: "No!"

"Shuxing, I asked someone to bring you here because I wanted to give you a surprise!"

Song Xiang walked to Shu Xing and gently opened the glass bottle. Fireflies instantly flew out, flickering around Shu Xing, illuminating the small world where the two of them were.

"Firefly, it's actually a firefly!" Shu Xing exclaimed, shocked by the scenery before him, "So beautiful! Xiangxiang, you're so good to me!"

Shuxing was deeply moved and grabbed Song Xiang's hand.

"Xiangxiang, may the fireflies bear witness for us. I want to be with you for the rest of my life."

Song Xiang hugged Shu Xing and replied affectionately: "I feel the same way!"

Just at this moment, Xin Fusu happened to pass by with the medicine. Seeing this romantic scene from afar, he couldn't help feeling envious.

Today he was wearing a scarlet double-breasted robe embroidered with auspicious clouds and a jade crown on his head. He should have been high and mighty, untainted by the dust, but now he was tainted by the worldly air and looked a little lonely.

"The Third Prince has someone he loves, and he is not my perfect match." Xin Fusu said enviously, "What a pity that we met so late!"

"It's rare to find a young lady in Chaoxi City who is so devoted to her husband!"

Yao Wen said like a lackey: "Would you like me to go and catch some fireflies for you to play with?"

Xin Fusu shook his head and said, "Stop messing around!"

After saying this, he suddenly thought of Nan Xiangzi and the night at Longju in Pingkangfang. It seemed just as beautiful!

Song Xiang and Shu Xing were immersed in this beautiful atmosphere and did not notice Xin Fusu's gaze.

Xin Fusu took one last glance and left quickly with mixed feelings.

Shu Xing leaned against Song Xiang, saying in a tender tone, "Xiang Xiang, I really want to marry you soon. It's too hard to not see you every day."

Song Xiang replied ambiguously: "My elder sister has already been engaged, so it will probably be soon!"

Shu Xing nudged Song Xiang and said affectionately, "With your words, I am satisfied."

As the night deepened, Song Xiang personally escorted Shu Xing to the outside of the tent. After watching Shu Xing go in, he went back with the guards.

The next day, just after daybreak, the sound of a noble lady driving a horse could be heard outside.

The hunt begins…

Today the sky above the paddock is clear and cloudless.

In front of the stands, flags were flying, horses were neighing, and it was a very lively scene.

The Empress, Empress, ministers and their families had been waiting in the stands for a long time to see the royal splendor.

The ladies were dressed in gorgeous riding clothes, each of them looked heroic, like beautiful flowers blooming on the vast grassland.

Song Xiang was dressed in a red riding suit, with a golden crown on her head and a jade pendant on her waist, which made her look even more noble and bright.

She held a bow and arrow and rode a snow-white horse. She was in high spirits and was the best of her time.

With the order from the Royal Guards, the hunt officially began.

Everyone spurred their horses and rushed towards the woods.

The sound of horse hooves resounded through the sky, startling flocks of birds.

The eldest princess Wei Wenyi took the lead. With her sharp eyes, she quickly spotted a roe deer, drew her bow and shot an arrow at it.

Song Xiang rode a little slowly. She scanned the sky with her eyes and after a while she found a lively and agile goose.

She drew her bow and aimed at the target. With a whoosh, a blunt arrow flew out and hit the live goose accurately.

The live goose was instantly knocked unconscious and fell from the sky.

Song Xiang pulled the reins, dismounted, picked up the live goose on the ground, and walked towards the skylark with a smile on his face.

"How's my horse archery skill?"

Yun Que curled the corners of his lips and said, "Your Highness's archery skills have improved rapidly, and are incomparable to the past!"

Song Xiang climbed onto the horse and had no intention of continuing hunting. She held the reins in one hand and held the live goose in the other, and galloped towards the stands.

When he reached the front of the stands, Song Xiang grabbed the reins, jumped off the horse, walked straight to Xin Fusu, and handed him the live goose.

He raised his voice and said: "The geese are calling, the sun is rising. The men are returning home, waiting for the ice to melt."

"Master Xin, if a female goose loses a male goose, it will not look for a new mate. I personally hunted a live goose for you to show my sincerity!"

"I hope Master Xin will not fail to meet the February deadline!"

Xin Fusu was slightly startled, his ears turned red, and his face showed a bit of embarrassment, but in front of the empress, the empress, and the princes and ministers, he could only bite the bullet and take it, bowing and thanking: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness."

Empress Wang Chuzhong whispered to the empress: "Xuan Yi has proposed marriage with a live goose and set a date before the ice melts. Your Majesty can start arranging the wedding for Wen Yi and Yuan Yi! You can arrange Xuan Yi's wedding in February next year and hold the formal wedding ceremony!"

The empress replied calmly: "Zhong'er is right. I will urge the Ministry of Rites to quickly arrange the marriage between Wen Yi and the young master of the Gao family!"

"Have you found someone for Yuan Yi?"

The emperor Wang Chuzhong replied softly, "Your Majesty, what do you think of the son of Zhao Qi, the Grand Commander of the Army and Horse?"

His Majesty's lips curled up slightly, with a hint of smile: "The one who knows me best is Chu Zhong!"

The commotion in the stands did not affect Song Xiang.

The sunlight shines on the golden grass like a layer of dazzling ribbon. The breeze blows by, bringing bursts of fragrance from the grass and trees, making people immersed in it unconsciously.

Song Xiang changed to a maroon horse, mounted it, and headed towards the mountains and forests. Her beautiful face looked even more radiant and charming in the sunlight.

She held a carved bow and arrow, her eyes searching for running prey.
