In order to regain his lost face and dignity in front of foreign officials, Yinzhen launched a large-scale water hunting activity in full swing.

To be precise, Liu Hua was watching others unfolding in full swing, while he himself was holding a beautiful woman in his arms.

Since she is pregnant now, she will not follow Yinzhen to ride horses and shoot arrows.

"Sister, look at these newly harvested grapes." An Lingrong held a bunch of pink and white grapes in her hand.

He peeled the skin and put it to Liu Hua's mouth, and Liu Hua raised his lips slightly.

He swallowed a whole grape and accidentally touched An Lingrong's finger.

For a moment, the cool summer breeze from Baiyangdian added a bit of heat to Liu Hua.

Liu Hua murmured to himself, "It's really hot this day."

An Lingrong beside him chuckled, and something unexpected happened.

The horses from the nearby stables somehow broke through the fence and ran straight towards Xin Changzai and a little girl.

Liu Wentao galloped out on a white horse and immediately picked up the eldest princess.

Xin Changzai was rescued by the colorful Xia Dongchun who rushed out.

Xia Dongchun looked at Concubine Xin lying on her horse's back and said proudly, "I said my skills are good. The emperor said yesterday that I am not as good as Concubine Nian and Nian Shishao, and he didn't allow me to go hunting.

I don’t think so, after all, I come from a family of military commanders.”

Liu Hua, who had been horrified at first, breathed a sigh of relief and immediately ordered, "Dongli, quickly tell the guards to round up these horses, pulling wood or something else. Go!"

Liu Hua looked around and found that some ladies and concubines were still here.

Especially Prince Dun’s wife, as well as Concubine Cao and Princess Wen Yi.

Everyone was in a panic. Liu Hua shouted, "Ladies and concubines, please move to the high platform."

The racecourse is at a low altitude and is very flat, so there is a high chance of horses getting injured or killed if they collide with each other.

But the platform was made of bluestone, which was very solid. It was also large and had stone railings.

If there are guards guarding the place, you can rest assured.

The crowd was not stupid but not very smart either, and they all rushed to the platform.

Liu Hua sighed secretly and said to Xiao Yunzi, "You go and guide them!"

Fortunately, Liu Hua was wearing flat shoes instead of clogs.

Caishao and Pengpeng carefully looked after her, and An Lingrong also took care of her in case of any danger.

We arrived safely on the platform, which was different from the place where we fed the ducks last time.

It is called "Yuejiangtai". A few days ago, Xiaoxiazi invited Liu Hua to a banquet, which was held here.

The guards that Yinzhen left here were quite capable and immediately subdued these mad horses.

The head of the imperial guards, Niuhulu Neqin, stood about two feet away from Liu Hua, knelt straight down, and said, "Your Highness, will you allow me to come forward and report?"

Liu Hua nodded reservedly. Xiao Yunzi very tactfully brought a sandalwood chair. Liu Hua sat on it and looked at the chief guard in front of him.

Niuhulu Neqin quickly knelt down and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, the mad horse has been subdued by us.

The servants discovered that the feed contained a large amount of poison hemlock, and the horses ate it and developed symptoms such as salivation and difficulty breathing.

Liu Hua asked Nianhulu Nianqin: "Can you tell me, have you found out who released it?"

Niuhulu Neqin's normally straight back bent, and he said in a daze, "I'm incompetent. I can only find out that the people who feed the horses mixed it in with some fresh horse grass."

Liu Hua kindly reminded him, "You also need to look at the dosage. It's not okay to mix one or two strains into a few horses."

Nianhulu Nianqin's eyes gleamed with a gleam of light, and he said admiringly, "I am grateful for your advice. I was too anxious and forgot the dosage. Give me some time, and I will definitely find out."

Liu Hua nodded slightly. Xin Changzai, who was being tossed up and down by the horse and vomiting, straightened her clothes a little and walked in front of Liu Hua.

She knelt down and said gratefully, "Thank you, Madam, for saving my life."

Xia Dongchun, who was using a peekaboo lens to touch up her makeup, immediately turned around and looked at Xin Chang for a long while.

He glanced at Liu Hua cautiously again before saying dissatisfiedly, "Hey, it was obviously Ben Chang who saved you, okay?"

Xin Changzai also bowed to Xia Dongchun to express her gratitude.

"Thank you, Mrs. Xia. I was talking about my daughter."

Liu Hua didn't care about taking credit for her brother. After all, she was fine in the palace, but she heard countless rumors outside the palace.

The outer court said that his brother was in power and was able to rise so quickly, and even married the eldest daughter of the second branch of the Guwaljia family, and he had a sister who was a concubine.

"Xin Chang is too polite, my brother was just making a random move.

We are all the emperor's people and should work for him. The eldest princess is the emperor's daughter, so it's nothing."

Xin Changzai didn't say much, but just kept it in mind.

She asked the eldest princess beside her to kneel down quickly and said, "Why don't you thank Her Majesty Qianfei?"

Aisin Gioro Yunfei hurriedly hid behind Xin Changzai and quietly poked his head out.

Xin Changzai was getting anxious and said to the eldest princess, "Hurry up and speak, why are you silent again?"

Liu Hua eased the awkwardness in time and said, "It's common knowledge in the palace that the eldest princess doesn't like to talk.

"Xin Chang is here, why are you still kneeling? Hurry up and get up. The chair next to you has been moved for you."

Xin Chang smiled with some guilt and sat on the willow wood chair that had been moved in.

Liu Hua looked at the eldest princess and asked in confusion, "The emperor has never proposed a title for the eldest princess, right?"

Xin Changzai smiled somewhat dejectedly and said, "Yes, Concubine Cao's Princess Wenyi was given the title after Concubine Nian begged the Emperor."

"My family is from a remote, small tribe.

When she entered the palace, her status became low, and after giving birth to a princess she was only a concubine.

Even the princess has to be fostered in the prince's residence, so how can she get a title?

I'm afraid the title will only be given when the marriage is discussed."

After she finished speaking, she wiped her tears with a handkerchief. The eldest princess beside her looked at her mother distressedly and said, "Don't cry, mother."

Xin Changzai said with some emotion: "Just now I asked you to call Concubine Qian Niangniang, but you didn't. Now why are you calling her mother?"

The eldest princess tugged at her clothes with her tender pink fingers and said aggrievedly, "But my mother told me not to flatter the emperor and the other ladies, and to behave myself and learn the rules from the maids."

This action made Liu Hua very distressed, so he teased her with the preserved fruits that Caiju had just brought.

"This is freshly dried guava. If you want to eat it, I, Liu E'niang, will give it to you."

The eldest princess looked at Xin Changzai cautiously, and Xin Changzai nodded slightly.

After carefully taking the preserved fruit from Liu Hua's hand, An Lingrong stuffed a handful of candy into her hand.

Xin Changzai looked at Liu Hua and said embarrassedly, "I have something I would like to ask for your help, Your Majesty.

I hope Your Majesty will consider my deep love for the princess. If I succeed, I will definitely... "

Liu Hua shook his head, interrupting Xin Changzai's words, and said seriously: "First, tell me what you want me to do. If I can do it, I will agree."
