Back and forth: I brought supplies to help the impoverished prince

The entrance to the hunting ground is surrounded by thick wooden stakes as fences, and the stands are not very high. According to Qiao Shinian's estimation, it is less than one meter.

Qiao Shinian looked at the not-too-simple stands in front of him and guessed that this would be the center of the bonfire party and where the prey was stored.

Many people were already gathered in groups of three or five around the stands, each carrying a bow and arrow, looking ready to go.

Many strong horses also came to the entrance, led by servants.

"In the novel, something must go wrong with this large-scale event. Either the hero and heroine slap each other in the face, or there is a thrilling assassination scene, and then the hero and heroine see each other's other side." Qiao Shinian whispered in Wen Jiu's ear.

Wen Jiu turned to look at Qiao Shinian and smiled helplessly, "Sister, promise me that you will read fewer romance novels in the future, okay?"

"I just want to say that at times like this, we have to stay calm." Qiao Shinian knelt behind Wen Jiu and looked at Lan Sheng, who was spreading his feathers like a peacock in the middle of the venue. "It really fits the saying that there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests."

"He is just avoiding risks. He has expressed to us his intention to make friends with him. The purest proton of all is that man." Wen Jiu looked at Wu Han with eyes full of indifference and mockery.

"His father wanted something from the Zhou Kingdom and wanted its protection, so he was sent here as cannon fodder. What about him? He was bribed by our meals. Look at the two barbarians behind him, how ferocious they look at us!" Wen Jiu actually laughed as he spoke, quite like a villain like Jifeng.

Qiao Shinian immediately reached out to cover Wen Jiu's sneering face, "Don't laugh, you look like a villain. We are the protagonists."

In fact, she was somewhat disgusted by Wen Jiu's words. The fact that Wu Han could be bribed by a few meals showed that he had never seen a good thing.

If others give him some warmth, he will give back everything he has. Such a sincere and pitiful person should not be ridiculed.

But this is a cruel living environment, so Qiao Shinian tried her best to give Wu Han warmth in order to make herself feel at ease. Although she wanted to use him, she had also given her all, so when that time came, she would feel a little better.

When Emperor Zhou led Concubine Liu to the main seat, everyone bowed to him and waited for him to speak.

"The prince of Chu Wen Kingdom is also an expert in riding and archery. Wen Jiu, are you sure you don't want to give it a try?" Emperor Zhou sat high up, looking at Wen Jiu, and asked again with a smile.

Wen Jiu bowed and responded loudly: "I am not very knowledgeable, so I won't show off my talent. If there is a chance in the future, let other brothers satisfy your curiosity."

His words caused a lot of discussion among the people around him. Some said that he had no backbone as a prince, while others said that he knew the current situation.

Emperor Zhou laughed, looked at the figure below whom he did not want to see, and said with a smile: "Qingchen is in a good mood this year. You did not participate in previous years. I thought you had slacked off in riding and shooting."

Mu Qingchen led his white horse and bowed respectfully, saying, "I heard that the first prize this year is the promise of my brother, so I dare to fight for my brother's promise."

"Oh? What do you want me to promise you? You know, as long as you ask, I will satisfy you. Why do this?" Emperor Zhou smiled, strode down the stands, walked to Mu Qingchen and patted his shoulder.

Under everyone's gaze, he smiled and asked, "Are you thinking of getting married? Which girl have you set your eyes on? Tell me and I will make the decision for you."

From Qiao Shinian's perspective, Mu Qingchen's face had a sacred feeling, because when the sunlight enveloped him, this seemingly lonely man was emitting light all over, as if he came from the fairyland.

Qiao Shinian wanted to paint this person again. His eyes were so lonely and sad, and his figure was so desolate.

"What a melancholy male god!" Qiao Shinian couldn't help but sigh.

When the noble ladies from the surrounding aristocratic families heard what Emperor Zhou said, they all looked in one direction and saw a woman in a crimson dress looking at Mu Qingchen with affectionate eyes. Everyone knew that she liked Mu Qingchen.

"Long'an Temple, I no longer have any worries in this world. My brother has governed the Zhou Kingdom and made the people live and work in peace. Now that the world is peaceful, I don't have to bear any responsibilities and can rest assured and let go of everything.

Abbot Xuanhui of Longan Temple said that I have a predestined relationship with Buddha, so if I win first place, please grant me permission, brother." Mu Qingchen knelt down and bowed deeply.

"No!"

Before Emperor Zhou could speak, Concubine Liu beside him had already shouted loudly.

Then she realized that she had lost her composure. She looked at Mu Qingchen who was kneeling on the ground with a sullen face and said in a cold voice: "Your brother was entrusted by the late emperor to take care of you. You became a monk. Do you want him to bear the stigma of not taking good care of you?!"

Emperor Zhou's eyes darkened slightly, and he looked at Concubine Liu with a little more dissatisfaction, and then followed Concubine Zhou's words and said: "You are the youngest son of my father. When he left, you were the one he was most worried about. He entrusted your future to me in front of several ministers.

You haven't got married yet, you haven't enjoyed the company of a mother yet, how can you say you've seen through the mundane world? I'll pretend I didn't hear what you said today, don't mention it again in the future!

Go ahead and have some fun.”

Emperor Zhou pulled him up and patted his shoulder, then he gathered his strength and said in a deep voice: "Let the hunt begin."

Everyone immediately mounted their horses upon hearing this and ran towards the forest, fearing that if they were a little late, the prey would be snatched away by someone else.

Mu Qingchen looked at Emperor Zhou's back and lowered his head for a long time.

Qiao Shinian looked at the lonely figure off the court. The sun was shining brightly, but everything around him seemed to be frozen.

A red shadow ran to Mu Qingchen without paying attention to everyone's gaze. She said stiffly, "Your Highness, I wish you a fruitful return."

After saying that, she tilted her head back and looked at Mu Qingchen with sparkling eyes. The girl's love was so strong that it was obvious without any disguise.

Mu Qingchen only felt that this kind of love was very hot. He didn't like her, so he couldn't respond to her feelings.

He took a step back, his whole person becoming indifferent and distant, as if he was meeting a stranger he had just met.

"Lend me some good words from the girl."

As he said this, he jumped onto his horse and glanced inadvertently at the source of the scorching gaze.

His thoughts on Wen Jiu and Qiao Shinian were simple: they were still alive and well, which meant they were really lucky and had great fortunes.

"Sister, do you like him?" Wen Jiu asked, staring at the white shadow going away.

Qiao Shinian shook his head. "No, he has a really good sense of atmosphere. He feels lonely and isolated from the world."

"You're lying. Are you thinking about some gossip?" Wen Jiu sat down.

Qiao Shinian squatted beside Wen Jiu, watching another red figure slowly walking back to her position: "Wow, I think Concubine Liu is really his mother, otherwise why would she react so strongly when she heard him say he wanted to become a monk! And that little princess, my god, she has a crush on the ceiling! Be sadomasochism, no, no, he hasn't fallen in love with that princess yet, it's not sadomasochism yet."

Qiao Shinian became excited as he spoke, "If I had a good relationship with her, I would encourage her to confess bravely. Being so reserved will not lead to any results."

"Sister, don't smile like that, you look like a pervert." Wen Jiu picked up the teacup and took a sip, supporting his cheek with his elbows on the table.

"I think I know why your sister-in-law is willing to teach you. When you regarded her as your love rival, did you just glare at her? And then you said, "I'm very angry, but I will ignore you"?

Then when I got home, I told Sister Tiantian and Brother Xiaobai all kinds of things about how you punished her and how you caught Brother Shuan's attention? How did she feel lonely and uncomfortable when she saw Brother Shuan noticed you? "

Qiao Shinian raised his eyebrows, "How do you know?"

Wen Jiu couldn't help laughing, "I guessed it."

Qiao Shinian is really a very easy to understand person, just like when they first met.

"Hey, kid, do you know where this is? Is this a filming set? I think I'm lost."

"Oh, the reason why I dress so strangely is because... because I am not from this country, I am from another country."

"Okay, I'll tell you a secret. I'm from another time and space. Have I traveled through time? Then I have to show off my talents as a young person today. I want to be very successful here!"

Wen Jiu smiled and was distracted.

But Princess Yu'an, who was sitting opposite him, felt very uneasy. She stared at Wen Jiu fiercely.

Finally, her face turned red and she lowered her head.
