Don't panic, nephew. I will take this pot of evil star.

It was a clear and crisp autumn day, and a procession of sedan chairs marched out of the imperial city of Ya'an.

This year is the royal hunting event that is held every three years. Military generals and civil officials in the court all participate. Various competitions of different sizes and strange prizes make everyone eager to try.

Mu Lanxun also got on the carriage and quietly followed the team.

The plan to have the fifth princess marry into the royal family still needs to be secretly planned by his mother, so he can only wait patiently.

The hunting ground is twenty miles outside of Ya'an City and can be reached in half a day. The area within a radius of one hundred miles has been monitored three days in advance, just so that everyone can have fun in these three days.

Except for a few people specially selected by Emperor Qi Zhao, the rest of the people participated in this trip voluntarily. But since the emperor wanted to have fun, no one dared to spoil the fun. Everyone signed up enthusiastically, and even the old civil servants of the Hanlin Academy who could not lift their hands or shoulders came happily.

We arrived at the place in the afternoon, took a short rest, and had a bonfire party in the evening. The main event would begin early tomorrow morning.

Mu Lanxun was assigned a small tent, where a set of riding clothes and a set of bows and arrows had been delivered. It seemed that he could not escape even if he wanted to.

"Mr. Mu!" someone shouted outside. Who would come to see him at this time?

The person came in through the curtains. Mu Lanxun frowned and looked at him. "What's going on?"

"Someone asked me to bring you a package, and asked you to take it with you before you get on the horse tomorrow." The man had a strange face, but his eyes were very familiar.

A very familiar small porcelain bottle lay quietly on the bundle he was holding.

Kang Jue! Is it my sister?

He took the bag, and what about his sister?

In the blink of an eye, it was the evening bonfire party. Mu Lanxun had originally found a secluded spot and was about to sit down when he was discovered by Emperor Qi Zhao, who called him to sit next to his subordinate, right next to His Majesty's table.

This old emperor is going to cause trouble.

"Prince Mu Jiu, you are tired from the journey. Just listen to some music and watch some dance tonight. I am really looking forward to seeing you show your skills tomorrow." Emperor Qi Zhao smiled heartily, with a kind look like an elder teasing the younger one.

"Your Majesty, thank you for your compliment. To be honest, I was afraid you would laugh at me." Mu Lanxun had been forced to drink a few glasses of wine, his face was a little red, and he spoke a little stutteringly.

But there were still people coming to toast him, and under the nose of His Majesty, he accepted all of them. After a while, he was drunk and lying on the table motionless.

The emperor glanced over and someone immediately came up and helped him back.

Mu Lanxun was drunk and was almost dragged away. He even vomited all over someone, and then he was thrown roughly onto the bed and left alone.

A gust of wind blew, and Mu Lanxun, who was lying on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes, and his eyes were clear.

He sat up and glanced at the bundle he had brought with him that afternoon, a tenderness flashing in his eyes.

The porcelain bottle in the bundle contained a few hangover pills and various other pills. He took one pill in advance, otherwise he would have been unable to refuse the hospitality tonight.

There was also a very thick piece of hard leather, the size of two palms, with ropes sewn on the four corners, which should be tied around the chest.

He looked at the leather, his eyes flashing. Tomorrow's hunt...

The next morning, the sun was scorching and the weather was surprisingly good.

Emperor Qi Zhao was wearing a bright yellow riding suit, sitting on a tall horse, looking down at everyone.

"Whoever hunts a mature deer today will be given the choice of any horse from my stable!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the people following behind burst into exclamations. His Majesty's stables were filled with rare and excellent horses, with only five in total. Now he was willing to give up one of them. It seemed that he was in a really good mood.

The generals in the army were even more eager, staring at the forest ahead with eager eyes, as if they had already found their target.

The other small prizes were insignificant in comparison. There were jade pendants, swords, a coral screen, a full set of pearl headwear, and even a set of dazzling quicksand dress.

There were so many prizes that everyone was secretly eyeing them. Even Mu Lanxun was staring at the quicksand dress in a trance.

The whistle blew, and the bright yellow horse in the front left the crowd behind, leading them to disappear into the depths of the forest with a rumble.

Feng Xili looked at the disappearing army in silence. With such a big commotion, they still wanted to hunt?

She raised her eyes and glanced at her father. Two days ago, her father suddenly wrote to her asking if she wanted to go to the hunting ground, saying that he was worried that she would be bored staying on the farm.

She didn't want to come at first because her medicinal herbs were about to sprout and she had to watch them. Unfortunately, she had a nightmare that night, and the taste was still the same as she remembered.

As a result, she could only follow her father step by step, without any freedom at all, and felt even more depressed.

She pouted secretly and looked at the people riding on horseback with envy.

"Father, can I just ride here instead of going into the woods? I see some pretty docile ponies over there."

She blinked her big eyes. The hunters had already entered the forest and would not be back for a while. It would be good to let Xier learn to ride a horse since she had nothing to do anyway.

"Go, Songping, take the young lady over and follow her." Feng Linshang sat down, pinched a grape, and instructed the servant beside him.

Feng Xili changed into a blue riding suit, tied her hair up high, and looked heroic.

The horse trainer next to him was waiting with a young mare.

Deep in the forest, Emperor Qi Zhao first hunted a rabbit and a wild boar, and then walked back slowly with his hands behind his back.

Next it was time for everyone to show off their skills. Mu Lanxun followed at the end, keeping a vigilant eye on his surroundings. It didn't matter whether he could catch the prey or not, the most important thing was to be on guard against hidden arrows.

He rode his horse and left the main group without a trace. After a while, he hunted a pheasant and then lay on a tree with his eyes closed in thought.

He gently stroked the leather on his chest. Although it was hard and uncomfortable, he felt it was very comfortable and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.

"Da da da..." The sound of horse hooves rang in his ears. He glanced down inadvertently and was surprised to find that it was the little fat boy.

Is he here too?

No, the little fat boy is not fat anymore. He looks much stronger after losing weight. Maybe the martial arts training has a good effect.

He closed his eyes again, his mind preoccupied with other things.

"Swoosh!" The sudden sound of the arrow breaking through the air was deafening. His eyes, which had just been closed, suddenly opened, his eyes solemn. Just by listening to the sound, he could guess how powerful the arrow was.

He quietly stood up and looked over.

A wild boar was lying on the ground not far away, its body still twitching and its howls were harsh and sharp, but there were no arrows on its body.

He squinted his eyes and looked around. Sure enough, on the tree trunk not far behind the wild boar, there was an arrow stuck straight in the wood. The whole arrow was covered in blood, and the thick red blood was dripping from the feathers.

How could this guy actually shoot through a wild boar?

Mu Lanxun squatted on the tree trunk. Even though he saw it with his own eyes, he was still shocked beyond belief.

He saw madness flashing in Feng Tianxu's eyes and an evil smile on the corner of his mouth. He was shocked. What had provoked this guy?
