Why mess with her? Even the emperor has to pamper her.

Xie Yang dismounted from his horse and trotted to Emperor Tianqi to pay his respects.

"Greetings to the Emperor, long live the Emperor!" Xie Yang knelt straight, his voice loud and clear, his bright eyes full of admiration.

Emperor Tianqi was obviously in a much better mood: "Hurry up. Yang'er's riding skills seem to have improved a lot. I wonder if his archery skills have improved as well."

Concubine Xi at the side immediately said: "Your Majesty, just test him and you will know."

Emperor Tianqi also had this idea. He looked at the shooting range nearby and said to Xie Yang, "Go and give it a try. I'll see if you have improved."

After hearing this, Xie Yang immediately agreed.

He took out his own bow and arrows and nocked three arrows at a time.

Three arrows were fired at the same time, hitting the bull's eye, which aroused cheers from the surroundings.

Yun Chuwei was a little surprised.

Xie Xin squeezed next to Yun Chuwei and whispered, "I thought my brother was just a show-off, but I didn't expect he actually has some skills."

Shooting three arrows at the same time and hitting the bull's eye is something that not everyone can do.

Yun Chuwei nodded slightly and didn't say much.

The happiest person was Concubine Xi. She grabbed the sleeve of Emperor Tianqi and said excitedly: "Your Majesty, did you see that? Yang'er shot it, all three arrows hit the bull's eye!"

Emperor Tianqi praised: "Not bad, not bad!"

Concubine Xi changed the subject and said, "But Yang'er is definitely not as good as your Majesty. I heard that when your Majesty was the same age as Yang'er, he had already fought in the battlefield and was the bravest among the three armies!"

Emperor Tianqi did not speak, but his empty eyes seemed to be lost in memories.

He looked at Xie Yang, but it seemed that he was not looking at Xie Yang.

Concubine Xi stopped talking, she knew she had succeeded.

Her purpose was to let Emperor Tianqi see his younger self through Xie Yang.

Emperor Tianqi came back to his senses and told Sun Jiasheng who was standing beside him, "Go and get the golden bow that I used when I was young and give it to the eleventh prince as a reward!"

After hearing this, Sun Jiasheng hurried away.

Concubine Xi and Xie Yang on the side showed joy on their faces.

Soon, Sun Jiasheng came back holding the golden bow.

He did not give the golden bow directly to Xie Yang, but held the bow in both hands and presented it to Emperor Tianqi.

Emperor Tianqi reached out his hand and touched the bow, his face full of thought, as if he was recalling the time when he used this bow.

Finally, he smiled, waved his hand, and signaled Sun Jiasheng to hand over the bow.

Only then did Sun Jiasheng hold the bow in front of Xie Yang.

He said respectfully: "Congratulations to the Eleventh Prince for obtaining this fine bow!"

Xie Yang took the bow and didn't say anything, but put an arrow on it and pulled the bow.

Only after shooting an arrow and hitting the bull's eye did Xie Yang kneel down to express his gratitude.

"Thank you, Father, for the reward!"

Emperor Tianqi raised his hand to signal him to stand up, then raised his voice and announced: "Begin the hunt!"

Upon hearing this, everyone began to ride their horses into the hunting grounds.

Xie Yang clasped his fists towards Emperor Tianqi and said, "Father, I want to be in a group with Sister Chu Wei. Please allow me!"

Emperor Tianqi glanced at Yun Chuwei and smiled: "I have no right to control who Chuwei wants to be in a group with. Okay, go!"

Yun Chuwei didn't say anything. After clasping his fists and bowing to Emperor Tianqi, he turned around and rode away on his horse.

Seeing this, Xie Yang also followed on horseback.

Concubine Xi watched the two men leave before she approached Emperor Tianqi and spoke jokingly.

"Ms. Yun is indeed a woman brought up by a great family. Her appearance and temperament are fascinating. It's a pity that Yang'er was born a few years later, otherwise I would have definitely fought with King Xuan for her! Such a good person cannot be taken away by King Xuan!"

Emperor Tianqi smiled and said, "Don't say that again. That girl likes King Xuan very much and protects him everywhere. If she hears what you said, she will be unhappy!"

"Your Majesty is right. It was I who spoke without restraint!"

Although Concubine Xi spoke calmly, her heart was filled with turmoil.

She knew that His Majesty trusted and doted on Yun Chuwei, but she didn't expect it to reach this point.

Judging from Her Majesty's tone, she would believe Yun Chuwei when she said she was his princess.

Moreover, even the princes and princesses were far from being so close and doted on.

According to your majesty, you will give the prince that Yun Chuwei likes to her.

What's even more outrageous is that His Majesty's words imply that she, as a favorite concubine, has to speak and act according to Yun Chuwei's mood and try to please Yun Chuwei. This...

Fortunately, she did not directly ask His Majesty to grant the marriage, otherwise things would have developed in a direction that she could not control.

It seems that if she wants her son to marry Yun Chuwei, who is such a great help, she may have to take other measures!

She temporarily shook off the thoughts in her mind and said to Emperor Tianqi: "Your Majesty, do you want to go horseback hunting?"

Emperor Tianqi nodded slightly: "Since you are here, you can ride a horse with me for two laps!"

Sun Jiasheng, who was standing by, heard this and very tactfully asked someone to pull up the prepared horses.

Emperor Tianqi was in serious health, and it was not visible on his face, but Sun Jiasheng knew it.

Therefore, Sun Jiasheng asked people to prepare the most docile horses.

After the horse was brought over, Xie Xin stepped forward and took over the job of leading the horse.

Emperor Tianqi mounted his horse with the help of Sun Jiasheng.

He sat on the horse, looked at the lawn in front of him, and said with a smile: "I haven't ridden a horse for a long time!"

Concubine Xi, who had already mounted her horse, said gently, "Then I will ride with Your Majesty today."

Emperor Tianqi smiled and extended his hand to Xie Xin.

Xie Xin handed the reins to Emperor Tianqi and whispered, "Father, please ride slower!"

Emperor Tianqi said nothing, shook the reins, and the horse started to move forward.

Xie Xin also climbed onto his horse and followed Emperor Tianqi not too far away.

Sun Jiasheng followed behind with a team of guards.

Emperor Tianqi rode his horse slowly and entered the forest.

When he felt like it, he would draw his bow and shoot arrows to hunt small prey himself.

Suddenly, a long arrow flew out and headed straight for Emperor Tianqi.

Xie Xin was always paying attention to the situation around him and was the first to notice the arrow feather that broke through the air.

She flew up and cut down the arrow with one sword.

At this moment, a group of men in black rushed out.

The first thing Xie Xin did was to grab Emperor Tianqi's reins and help him dismount.

When Sun Jiasheng and his men arrived, they handed Emperor Tianqi to Sun Jiasheng.

Sun Jiasheng supported Emperor Tianqi while calling on the guards to protect him.

Xie Xin picked up his sword and rushed out to kill.

There were always people patrolling the paddock, and when they heard the fighting, they naturally rushed over.

That team of men in black were highly skilled in martial arts, and every move they made was deadly.

However, two fists are no match for four hands after all, and after a fierce battle, some of the men in black died, and some escaped.

When Yun Chuwei arrived, what she saw was a mess and countless dead and injured.

Under the escort of Yun Chuwei and Xie Xin, Emperor Tianqi quickly returned to the main tent.

Emperor Tianqi had a gloomy expression on his face and was obviously angry.

He looked at Xie Xin, his face darkening: "Give me an explanation within one day! Otherwise, I will hold you responsible!"

Xie Xin immediately agreed, bowed, and left the main account.

Emperor Tianqi then glanced at Yun Chuwei, and after a moment of hesitation, he sighed and said, "You should help her too!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Yun Chuwei stepped out of the main tent and saw Sun Jiasheng leading the imperial physician hurriedly into the main tent.

Outside the main tent, there were already three layers of guards standing inside and outside.

Yun Chuwei approached Xie Xin and asked, "What's going on?"

"Those men in black seem to be the ones who rescued the former prince!"

Yun Chuwei was a little surprised.

The royal hunting grounds were heavily guarded, so if someone came in under normal circumstances, there was still a chance of success.

After the hunting started, Xie Xin took over the guarding here several days in advance and built the entire hunting ground like an iron barrel, making it impossible for an assassin to get in.

"I have strengthened the guards, and no one can escape. At the same time, I have dispatched a group of soldiers to search the enclosure. I believe we will get an answer soon!" said Xie Xin.
